Chapter 153 Night Attack

   Night falls.

   A busy day in Chasing Light City is over.

  No, to be precise, the busy day of the Chasing Light Army is over, and the nightlife in Chasing Light City has just begun.

  At seven o'clock in the evening, all the gate winches of Zhuguang City turned at the same time, and the gates fell with a rattling sound.

  From this time, people inside the city are not allowed to leave the city, and people outside the city are not allowed to enter.

  If there is a caravan coming from afar, they can only rest outside the city tonight, and wait until the city gate opens at 5:00 tomorrow morning.

  The city is still brightly lit. Zhuguang City, which has two power plants, has sufficient power supply, and many shops are hung with neon lights.

   Streets and alleys, hotels and restaurants are full of people.

  The stalls of mutton kebabs exuded fragrance. People exchanged cups, drank and chatted, discussing that today's chasing army will go out of the city, and those robbers who don't know how to live or die will definitely be wiped out.

  In some high-end consumer places, people can also sing and dance, drink tea and massage.

  In the bar, men and women who have been suppressed by the end of the world for a long time are having a carnival. From time to time, a pair of wild mandarin ducks hook up together, looking for a place to vent their passion.

  Luxury cars, fine wine, neon lights, and hazy night constitute the night life map of Chasing Light City.

  However, this is the central and western part of the outer city. In the eastern part of the city, it is relatively quiet.

  There are no people living along the banks of the Fengming River. The high-end residential area here has not been fully completed yet.

   On both sides of the river bank, there are rows of shops.

  A wide road was built on the bank of the river, and there were also white marble railings on the bank.

  The transplanted green belt has been transplanted here, and the evergreen pines stand tall and straight.

  Many of those shops have already been sold, and they are currently in the renovation stage.

  Some even hung plaques, and the names are very ambiguous.

  The names of "Evening Fragrance", "Yihonglou" and "Baihuaguan" make people know what they are doing at a glance.

   Even in the river, there are some building boats appearing.

   During the day, workers paint the buildings and boats, all of which are bright colors and pink curtains.

   It is also clear what this is for, this is the place to drink flower wine in the future.

  In the Hanyue Empire, this kind of thing is not illegal, and after the end of the world, such things are indispensable in survival bases everywhere.

   This will be the gold consumption cave of Zhuguang City in the future, and it will also be an important part of driving the economy.

  Although the business here has not officially started yet, one can already imagine the grand scene here a month later.

  The day laborers have left and the place is now empty.

  Occasionally, there are patrol motorcycles from the Public Security Department passing by on the street, and they will not stop here. They just run around along the river, and no one is allowed to fish here at night.

  A street-facing shop called Yihonglou.

   This is a five-story independent building, which will be a leisure club in the future.

  But tonight, the place is full of people.

  Everyone stayed in the house quietly, without turning on the lights or talking loudly, and there was no abnormality at all from the outside.

  In each floor, there are at least three hundred people staying in it.

  In the lobby on the first floor, a mutant leading a team observed the situation outside from the window.

  From his perspective, he could see the city wall in the distance and the water gate at the end of the river.

   "Boss Bai, is the person who delivered the weapon here?" Someone behind him asked.

Boss Bai turned his head and glared at him: "Are you too nervous? How many times have you said it? The time for the operation is eight o'clock. The divers will go into the water from five hundred meters away from the city, and then they will carry a box containing weapons. Come here, avoid the defenders on the city wall, it will take at least 20 minutes to half an hour to reach us, it will be fast if we can act at 8:30, look at what time it is now."

  The man checked the time, it was 7:43, and there were still ten minutes before he could move outside the city.

  Suddenly smiled embarrassingly: "I'm impatient, but it can't be all my fault. Today's big scene may never happen once in my life. My heart is beating so fast right now."

   After he finished speaking, people around him kept nodding, indicating that they were the same.

   In fact, Boss Bai is also very nervous, after all, what they are going to do tonight is too shocking.

  When the weapons arrive, they will immediately go to the south gate, and then launch a surprise attack on the city wall.

  There are many things involved in this process, whoever takes a sniper rifle and kills the snipers in the sentry tower first. Who is responsible for the feint and attracts attention. Someone, as a commando, stormed the city wall. Who turns the windlass, who sends the signal, etc., has a strict division of labor.

   Even after taking down the south gate and opening the city gate, there is a detailed battle plan.

   Once this matter is successful, the Light Chasing Army will change hands, Tang Zheng can only flee in embarrassment, and the Northern Territory will be completely controlled by the alliance.

  These people must have risen with the tide, and got rich with promotion.

   Thinking of what might happen in the future, Boss Bai's palms were sweating nervously.

  He just felt that time passed really slowly now.

  While waiting boredly, he cast his eyes on the water surface of Fengming River.

  The river was rushing, and occasionally there were waves on the water surface that suddenly rippled, which should be a big fish passing by.

   "When I win, I will retire here. I go fishing, drinking and drinking during the day, and come here to spend at night. That is really a fairy life."

  Boss Bai and the others stayed in the building, anxiously waiting for the movement in the river, hoping that the next moment, a diver would come up from the river and deliver a box full of weapons to them.

   Seven fifty-five.

   Outside the city of Chasing Light.

  The cool night breeze blows, and the trees in the mountains and forests sway.

  A mutated owl with a wingspan of nearly two meters flew over the mountains, making a "cuckoo" cry.

  The screams permeated people, accompanied by the night wind, making people shudder.

  About 600 meters outside the city, a group of people prostrated themselves on the bank of Fengming River.

   There are a total of one hundred people here, all wearing black diving suits, diving goggles, and oxygen cylinders behind them.

  It is difficult to see in the dark river at night, but these frogmen have undergone professional training. Even when the alliance garrison chased the city of light, they even dived through this section of the river, and they could touch it with their eyes closed.

   Among them, the frogman leader who led the team was lying in the grass on the shore with an infrared telescope in his hand.

  Beside him, there are huge iron boxes.

  Inside these boxes are weapons sealed with plastic tarpaulins.

  Heavy machine guns, sniper rifles, grenades, explosives, rocket launchers, bullets, everything.

   These things were prepared by Xie Jinshan for them, and they cost a lot of money.

   Some of these weapons even came from the City of Chasing Light.

  But the frogman leader doesn't care about that, he is only responsible for sending the weapons into the city, and he's done.

  In the field of vision of the telescope, the situation above the city of Chasing Light is clearly visible.

  A group of guard soldiers from the Light Chaser Army patrolled over.

  A group of eight people, the leader is also leading a military dog.

  The military dogs were also wearing bulletproof vests, sticking out their big tongues to smell left and right, walking all the way on the city wall, very dedicated.

  Soldiers with guns also walked over the city wall.

  The leader of the frogmen knew that the patrol team of the Light Chasing Army basically passed through this area once in half an hour, and never stopped for 24 hours.

  But this night, the area they can monitor becomes smaller, and the darkness will block many things.

   Avoiding patrols is easy, but avoiding searchlights is a bit more difficult.

  The sentry tower on the city wall is nearly 30 meters high from the ground, and the high-power searchlights on it are turned on, and they search outside the city over and over again.

  The soldiers of the Light Chasing Army made the frogmen leader feel like robots. These guys hardly know how to get tired.

  They turned on the searchlights, and the incandescent lights swept everything outside the city.

  Fengming River also scans the area, but the dark river at night is really nothing to see, and you can basically see through it at a glance.

   This kind of light can even reach a depth of two meters below the river, but it cannot be seen any further down.

  The frogman leader looked at the time, and it was eight o'clock in three minutes.

   Today's action, he knows is very dangerous.

   It's easy to talk about not being discovered. Once discovered, the helicopters of the Chasing Light Army will chase them out, and I'm afraid they will all be left here.

   After all, their opponent is Tang Zheng, the overlord of the Northern Territory.

  The leader of the frogmen took out a cigarette, but he didn't smoke it. Lighting a fire in the dark would be courting death, even if it was a cigarette butt.

  He sniffed the direction of the tobacco, and put the cigarette back.

   Fumbled in his pocket and took out a photo.

  It was a picture of his daughter, an eight-year-old girl.

  He is a lucky man, his daughter is still alive and is currently in the University City Base.

  The leader of the frogmen has nothing else but good water skills, which is the main reason why he can become the leader.

   As a father, he needs to make money and bring a good life to his daughter.

  So this time, he accepted the mission without hesitation.

   Xie Jinshan promised that as long as he succeeds, he will be rewarded with 50,000 light yuan.

  In this era, 50,000 light yuan is undoubtedly a huge sum of money.

Looking at the photo, the leader of the frogmen said softly: "Girl, after this success, Dad will be discharged from the army. From now on, Dad will take you to live in Zhuguang City. I heard that there will be a school here. Dad has money. When the time comes We can go to school now, Dad picks you up every day, can I cook something delicious for you?"

   Gently kissing the photo of his daughter, he put the photo back into his pocket.

  The time has come to eight o'clock.

  The gentle father just now turned back into an iron-blooded tough guy in an instant.

   "The first batch of frogmen, 30 people, go into the water!"

  30 frogmen, pushing heavy boxes, slid into the river.

  The weight of the design of the box is just right, and it belongs to the kind that wants to sink without sinking. The frogman can easily pull it in the river water below three meters.

  The night wind blows on the surface of the water, and the water waves are slightly rippling. Occasionally, the searchlights sweep over, and the people watching are terrified.

  The leader of the frogmen was on the shore, looking at the water with a telescope, his heart was in his throat.

  May God bless the Union, Amen!
