Chapter 2413 Outsmarting
The closest stronghold of the Japanese and puppet troops to Dahongshan is called Daqiao Town, which was the bridgehead for the Japanese army every time they went to attack Dahongshan.

Since the Japanese and puppet troops had no strongholds outside Daqiao Town, there were naturally quite a few Japanese and puppet troops stationed in Daqiao Town, including one squad and one company of puppet troops.

If you want to enter Daqiao Town, you must first cross a stone bridge in front of the town. Daqiao Town has a wall built around it and a watchtower built at the entrance of the town.

Since the Chinese army lacked siege weapons, it was basically impossible to capture such a town by force.

More than twenty miles after Daqiao Town, we arrived at a place called Tuqiao Village.

Compared with Daqiao Town, Tuqiao Village is in a rather mediocre location.

There are about a hundred households in the village. Although the population is not small among Chinese villages nowadays, the residents are relatively scattered and there is no good strategic terrain.

However, because it is also the only way for the Japanese army to go to Daqiao Town, and because of the protection of Daqiao Town, this place has become the base camp for some pseudo-families.

The full-scale war of resistance had been going on for three years. Even though the Japanese invaders looked down on the weak China in their hearts, they also felt that their troops were insufficient under the Chinese government's strategy of trading space for time.

What to do when the troops are insufficient? Perhaps inspired by the Chinese culture of learning from foreigners to defeat them, the Japanese army began to vigorously develop puppet troops.

The Wang Puppet Government was established, and the central government came up with a theory of saving the country in a roundabout way, so more and more national troops who surrendered to Japan gradually became puppet troops.

Since the puppet troops were of use, the Japanese army had no choice but to adopt a policy of appeasement. They might not stop killing civilians, but they couldn't kill all the puppet troops' families, right?

Therefore, Tuqiao Village became such a place. With the continuous influx of puppet soldiers' families, it showed a kind of abnormal prosperity.

That morning, two people were whispering in a shop on the street.

"The Japanese suffered a great loss in their attack on Dahongshan this time. There won't be any more attacks in the short term." A waiter whispered as he put his knapsack on the table.

There is a strong smell of Chinese medicine in the room because this is a Chinese medicine shop.

"I heard that two capable company commanders suddenly appeared in the 223rd and 226th Regiments this time, otherwise the Japanese wouldn't have suffered such a big loss." The man in a long robe who looked like a shopkeeper explained, "By the way, is there any movement in the village?"

"It's still the same in the village, but two women came into the village just now. They looked like beggars." said the waiter.

"Two women?" The shopkeeper couldn't help but look at the waiter.

In such turbulent times, it was not surprising to see refugees drifting into the village. He didn't understand why the guy was saying this.

"Two women, one in her twenties and the other about sixteen or seventeen. Their accents aren't from our place, but they have to go to the Li family compound to beg for food. It seems... Alas." The waiter couldn't help but sigh.

When the shopkeeper heard the waiter say this, he knew why the waiter was sighing.

The Li Family Compound is the Li family, which is the most prominent family in the village. The second son of the Li family is a regiment commander in the puppet army.

With his son's support, the Li family is naturally domineering in the village.

The old man from the Li family is still alive. He is almost sixty years old this year, but he is extremely lustful. Since his son became the head of the group, he has married two mistresses within three years.

But if it were just that, it would be fine. As they say, a rabbit doesn't eat grass near its burrow. But Old Li would never let go of any woman working in the Li family compound who was even slightly pretty. He even raped two girls from respectable families in the village who worked as maids in his house!

As for the final outcome, the Li family used coercion and bribery on the two families, and the matter ended up in nothing.

It's a pity that those two virgin girls were raped. No family would want to marry them. Now they can only continue to be maids in the Li family compound.

Now the waiter says that two beggar women are going to Lao Li's house. Isn't that like a sheep walking into a tiger's mouth?
Both of them were members of the New Fourth Army. Logically, they should have been eliminating evil for the local people. However, Old Li knew that he had committed many evil deeds and seldom left his compound.

The compound was also surrounded by high walls with barbed wire on top. A platoon of guards were deployed to guard the compound, armed with rifles, box guns and light machine guns. The New Fourth Army was not strong enough to penetrate the Japanese-Puppet hinterland and capture the Li Family Compound. The good people suffered and the bad guys took over. The common people hated the Li Family Compound so much that they could only helplessly say that it was not that they did not want to take revenge, but that the time had not come yet.

"Hey, pay more attention to the movements in the Li family compound. Now is not the time to settle accounts with them." This was all the shopkeeper could say.

The guy could only sigh again. He knew very well that he had no way to deal with the Li family compound for the time being.

Now is not the time for them to be exposed. They have more important work to do. For example, every time the Japanese army starts an attack, they can know the number of troops dispatched by hiding beside the road.

Of course the guy was in a bad mood because of the incident with the two beggars. He just lamented that he had wasted those two pretty young women.

He did follow the shopkeeper's instructions and went to take a look at the gate of the Li family compound. The two women were gone. He thought they had been taken to the Li family compound by that damn old man Li.

What else is there to see? He could only return home feeling depressed.

Because he was in a bad mood, the guy didn't observe the outside of Li's compound very carefully.

Not long after he returned to the pharmacy, another seven or eight women appeared at the gate of the Li family compound.

When those women appeared in front of the guards of the Li family compound, the guards on duty were stunned!
How could the guards not know that their master is lustful? Not only do they know it, but they are also accomplices. Sometimes they will even take advantage of the "leftovers" of women that their master has gotten tired of playing with.

But they didn't expect that their master had good luck in love. Why was he so lucky today? Seven or eight young women came all of a sudden, and they all looked good. What was going on? Did they all want to give flowers to their master?
When a bunch of lustful men saw so many women coming, their bones went soft.

No matter how big the Li family compound is, it is impossible for it to be closed in broad daylight. There were only four guards on duty standing on both sides of the gate with rifles.

Now that those women came forward, they couldn't wait to take advantage of them and had no time to be on guard.

There was also a guard on the corner tower at the entrance, who was craning his neck to watch the fun, but the women had already gathered at the gate, and the wall blocked his view.

By the time he saw a woman coming in from the doorway, the woman had already leisurely climbed up the ladder to the corner tower.

The guards on the corner tower were also filled with lust. They were not on guard at all. They were thinking that God was finally happy today and sent them such a delicate beauty!
What does it mean that "lust is like a knife hanging over your head"? When the woman walked up to the corner tower and he approached her with a lecherous look on his face, the woman suddenly pulled out a pistol and pointed it at his forehead. His eyes widened!

Half an hour later, gunshots suddenly rang out like a machine gun in the Li family compound, and the gunshots caused a sensation in the entire village.

The timid people in the village hid at home and dared not come out. The brave ones secretly glanced at the Li family compound from the corner of the street and saw that the gate of the Li family compound was wide open, but the guards at the door were gone.

But who dared to go forward when the gunshots were heard? The gunshots only lasted for a while and then stopped.

A few minutes later, someone saw two carriages running out of the yard.

The people in the village knew the carriage. The horses were tall and big, and they all belonged to the Li family compound.

There were many women sitting in a carriage, and everyone had a pistol in their hands.

There were some men sitting in a horse-drawn carriage, and all of them had guns. Some of them even had two rifles, one on their backs and another in their hands.

The two carriages were driven out of the village in a hurry. It was useless to look at the person, you had to look at the gun! Even if the girl was delicate, she would look ferocious if she held a gun in her hand!

In this situation, who would dare to stop the other puppet soldiers' families in the village even if they had guns? They could only let the two carriages run away.

To the people in the village, it all felt like a dream.

After a while, a woman's wailing was heard from the Li family compound, followed by someone shouting, "Help! The New Fourth Army is killing people!"
