Chapter 523: Cannon Fodder in the War
On the first day of the new year, Ning Xiaoxiao got up very early because she still had to go to pay New Year's greetings today!
Although families are in financial difficulty and living conditions are tough now, during the Chinese New Year, everyone will try their best to exchange some chicken, duck, fish, meat, eggs, and fry some meatballs, and try their best to have a good New Year!
Ning Xiaoxiao wore clothes that were almost new, had breakfast, and went to her uncle's house to pay New Year's greetings with a few wild frozen pears, a pound or two of chestnuts, and six eggs!
As for the New Year gifts from my third uncle’s family, there were only wild frozen pears and four eggs!
Ning Xiaoxiao had lunch at her uncle's house, and even got a handful of peanuts as a snack when she visited her grandparents to wish them a happy new year!
Because her parents passed away, she didn't go to visit neighbors and play with the other kids in the village this year!
Moreover, because of Aunt Luo's words, her reputation in the village was not very good. If it were not for the help of the village chief, her reputation of being unlucky in marriage would have spread long ago, so no children in the village wanted to play with her.
Ning Xiaoxiao had no intention of changing this situation, and was even somewhat happy to see it happen!
So, her visit to relatives during the New Year was over!
In the evening, she closed the door and hid on the kang in her room. Ning Xiaoxiao made a fruit platter with various spicy dishes, made herself desserts and milk tea, and started watching various soap operas. This was the life she wanted most!
On the second day of the New Year, she had stewed goose in an iron pot in her space. On the third day, she had hot pot. In the following days, eight major cuisines were served on the table, and she could eat her fill every day.
After the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, Ning Xiaoxiao stepped on the scale and was surprised to find that she had gained five kilograms and six ounces of weight in less than ten days. Even piglets don't gain weight that fast.
No, she can't eat like this. Other people's children are pale and skinny, but she, whose parents are both dead, has a rosy complexion. Isn't it obvious that there is something wrong with her?
It was time to start working. On this day, Ning Xiaoxiao wished her leader a happy new year in a telegram, indicating that she was about to start working!
A few sentences in the telegram showed that the members of the Knights' Group had a very good New Year. Her relaxed tone made the leaders envious; they had been very busy this New Year!
She celebrated the New Year here, eating and drinking to her heart's content every day, feeling incredibly comfortable! However, the Red Side had its busiest New Year ever, and the reason for this busyness was naturally all thanks to the Knights' Group.
When Ning Xiaoxiao dealt with the people on the list, their confessions showed that each of them had a long list of things to do, such as several secret docks that needed people to be sent to guard, and when necessary, the incoming and outgoing supplies had to be intercepted.
There are also some secret actions and plans of the devils, which require a lot of preparation. The traps that need to be set up should be set up, the ones that need to be destroyed should be destroyed, and the ones that need to be used against the enemy should be used against the enemy. Everything needs to be arranged properly.
Not to mention the sack of confidential documents before, each task requires a lot of manpower and material resources to complete.
So all the people on the red side were busy with various things. Even during the New Year, they did not have any free time to rest. They were either fighting or taking on various tasks, investigating, and collecting evidence!
So their feelings towards the members of the Knights' Group are quite complicated. Ever since they showed up, their lives have become busier and busier, almost to the point where they have no time to rest. Everyone wishes they could be split into two or three people!
But even so, they were still very happy, fortunate and grateful for their presence.
How many devils did the Knights kill, how many soldiers were prevented from being killed or wounded, how much devil's supplies were seized, how many plans of Country R were destroyed, how much supplies were delivered to them, and how many difficult tasks that many people thought were impossible were completed?
The leaders of the Red side knew all of this.
So even though they are very tired, they are also very motivated. All this makes them have a clearer view of the future and increases their confidence!
Ning Xiaoxiao received the telegram filled with envy, and she finally remembered what she had done before the Chinese New Year.
Many of the messages sent out were too complex and urgent, requiring immediate attention. The leaders must be quite busy. She rubbed her nose guiltily, realizing she had been a bit unkind.
So she agreed without hesitation to the first express delivery mission she received in the new year. This was a batch of supplies and medicines that the Red Army intercepted at the dock and transported from Country R to the soldiers!
But now the whole city is on alert, and although the medicines have been intercepted, they cannot be delivered. For this reason, the Red Army has sacrificed many comrades but still failed!
Ning Xiaoxiao agreed to join the newly found group of knights without even thinking twice. For her, this was a piece of cake.
After agreeing on the time, place and code, Ning Xiaoxiao took action the night after receiving the telegram. She arrived in x city, x province. Even though it was so late, she still saw roadblocks set up by the Japanese at various intersections!
Ning Xiaoxiao used teleportation to quickly shuttle through the alleys and easily found the intersection, which was an elementary school college!
She didn't go straight to the target, but first circled the entire elementary school and scanned it with her mental power! When she saw several black figures, Ning Xiaoxiao's eyes tightened. It seemed that they had been targeted!
Ning Xiaoxiao ignored them. After all, the underground workers had their own rhythm, and a rash move might cause them even more trouble. She dodged the crowd and headed straight for the principal's office, knocking lightly on the window in a secret signal.
Soon, the window opened and Ning Xiaoxiao jumped in silently.
The principal made a gesture to him to keep quiet, then pointed at the drawer. Ning Xiaoxiao used her mental power to take a look and saw a bug. It seemed like this principal had been targeted for quite some time.
Ning Xiaoxiao nodded in understanding, and then the two of them went from looking at each other at first to writing secret codes with pencils. After all the codes matched, they started to communicate by writing!
"Colleague, someone is targeting me!" The words can be seen clearly in the snow.
"I know, I saw people outside. Do we need to deal with all the people outside?" Ning Xiaoxiao also wrote back!
"No need. They're just suspicious right now. Once they get rid of the person, they'll be sure we have a problem. It's good that you're here. At least I've sent the message out. Even if I get caught, you won't have to worry about not finding the thing."
The principal wrote lightly in pencil the specific location where the things were to be placed, and after Ning Xiaoxiao understood it, he erased all the writing with an eraser and prepared to destroy the paper!
Ning Xiaoxiao reached out and took it. She knew that he was in danger and it would not be easy for him to destroy a piece of paper, but for her, it was no big deal!
Meeting his disapproving look, Ning Xiaoxiao wrote the words "Don't worry"!
Ning Xiaoxiao was not used to their furtive communication, but she also respected their cautious attitude. Finally, Ning Xiaoxiao wrote: "Is there anything I can do for you?"
The principal smiled and shook his head, motioning her to leave quickly. Ning Xiaoxiao silently said "take care" and left without looking back.
What she didn't know was that shortly after she left, the principal was betrayed, causing the Japanese to close in their net early and the principal was captured. Shortly after being captured, the principal committed suicide, completely cutting off all the clues the Japanese had found with him.
Ning Xiaoxiao quickly teleported to get the batch of medicines and delivered them to the destination overnight.
Now that the task is completed, she can focus on doing her own things.
Ning Xiaoxiao took out the information she got from the Japanese, sorted out the order of time and distance, and started drawing circles on the map again!
Of course, she would continue to deliver supplies to the Red Army soldiers. She just planned to deliver them once every quarter, at a fixed time and place!
With this plan, the whole thing began to become clear!
Ning Xiaoxiao started to get busy. She had to try to complete the sterilization and disinfection task before the busy farming season in spring.
She set off that night with the address, and her first stop was the most difficult and largest place built by the R Army for surgery.
After finding the specific address, Ning Xiaoxiao looked at the large village. It took her two nights to figure out the scale of the entire bacterial and virus breeding base. When she saw the specific situation inside, Ning Xiaoxiao's eyes were colder than the icicles under the eaves outside.
It was extremely difficult for her to take over this place. One reason was the excessive number of people, but the main problem was how to accommodate the hundreds of new people. These people had just arrived and had not had time to come into contact with the experiments.
Since he is not poisoned, he still needs to be rescued.
Ning Xiaoxiao also paid special attention during the day to the village that was massacred by the Japanese to see if it was habitable.
After looking around, Ning Xiaoxiao finally decided to find a relatively dry large cave, and placed various daily necessities and food in it!
On the third night, Ning Xiaoxiao planned what to do and then took action!
She sneaked in stealthily, taking photos to leave evidence, then destroyed or removed their communication equipment. Using drugs and poison, she eliminated both the sleeping soldiers and Bai Da Gua!
She walked into the laboratory and saw various specimens of human body parts. Ning Xiaoxiao, who was studying medicine, felt physically uncomfortable. She closed her eyes and quickly took care of all the white coats she was working on.
She put all the other party's research materials and files into the space, and she also kept the bottles and jars. She would take them out after the founding of the People's Republic of China to see if she could make some contribution to medicine.
Ning Xiaoxiao ran to the cold storage room again and put all the finished and semi-finished drugs into the space.
Afterwards, Ning Xiaoxiao and the robot worked for an entire night before they completely eliminated all these people. After all, it was an extraordinary challenge for three people without bombs or weapons to deal with more than 200 people with weapons!
There was a Japanese garrison not far away, and she didn't want to make any big moves to alert them. In a real fight, she really couldn't defeat too many people, and she didn't want to lose her life here.
Most of the people here were secretly drugged by Ning Xiaoxiao and then thrown into space to be dealt with by robots. This was all thanks to her invisibility and teleportation abilities, otherwise she would not be able to do it.
After there were not many people outside, they left it to the robot to deal with it. But even so, the robot was shot twice, but it did not cause any damage to the iron lump of the robot.
She herself was almost shot, but fortunately she escaped unharmed.
After Ning Xiaoxiao had searched and taken away the food and various weapons and guns, she went to deal with the prisoners. She saw Chinese civilians who were poisoned to varying degrees, and some were missing various spare parts. Even though Ning Xiaoxiao had seen this situation several times, she still felt very uncomfortable.
When Ning Xiaoxiao spoke to them, their numb faces finally showed expressions, and finally one after another burst into tears.
After venting their anger, they just want to die to get relief, and some even die by banging their heads against the wall. After all, many of these people are suffering every day and have long since given up wanting to live!
There are still a small number of people who want to live, want someone to save them, want someone to come forward to heal the poison in their bodies and cure their diseases, but they think that under such conditions where even eating has become a problem, how can these things be realized?
Ning Xiaoxiao could understand their thoughts. After all, who would want to die if they could live? No matter how painful it was, they still wanted to live.
Ning Xiaoxiao couldn't do anything like forcing someone to die, so she let them do what they wanted! Sure enough, the few who wanted to live were quickly convinced by the majority, and then they began to kill each other or commit suicide.
Unable to bear watching this hell on earth, she went to the other side to rescue the people. Ning Xiaoxiao asked them directly, "You can go out now, but do you have a place to go?"
"Can we still get out?" someone asked without any hope!
"Didn't the Japs bring us here and tell us to do some work? They also said we would be provided with food and lodging and wages, so I came here." A big man said naively!
"Me too. The Japanese said they needed porters, so I came here."
"You are so naive. Once you have entered the devil's den, how could you possibly get out alive? I was captured by them. It's ridiculous that there are people who would actually fall into their trap."
"Everyone in our village was killed by the Japanese. I escaped by going out to look for work, but I was eventually captured. I don't believe the Japanese will help us."
"........."
There are all kinds of people saying all sorts of things, and how they got here is also varied: some were captured, some were tricked in, some were sold, some were abducted, and some were driven out by their parents to make a living because their families couldn't support them...
Ning Xiaoxiao didn't say anything. She unlocked the door directly and asked them to go and see the surrounding situation themselves, so that they wouldn't accuse her of ruining their work. Although she was saving people, she was not willing to do this thankless task.
They tried to walk out of the cell door and saw that the prisoners not far from them were killing each other. Especially after seeing their respective conditions, they were all scared.
"Hey, save them! Open the cell for them, quickly, or they will die."
"I want to save them, but they've all been poisoned by the devils and won't live long."
Then I saw a few people crawling on the ground, neither human nor ghost. Only then did I believe what the Japanese had brought them here for. They all looked pale and listless.
Ning Xiaoxiao asked them again that those who had somewhere to go should leave quickly, and those who had nowhere to go should all follow him. However, they needed to make a decision quickly, as the Japanese might come soon and they would not be able to leave if they didn't leave now.
Ning Xiaoxiao pointed at the robots and let them make their own decision.
Soon, Ning Xiaoxiao saw some people moving. At first, there were only one or two people moving, and then more and more people started moving, searching quickly for things that could be useful to them. They didn't leave out the quilts, clothes, and shoes that the Japanese soldiers were wearing.
But they all tacitly went to where the devils lived, not to the laboratory!
Then many people ran after the robot with bags of all sizes, of course there were also a few people who ran to other places!
Ning Xiaoxiao didn't care about them. After everyone at the door ran away, she started to sprinkle gasoline. After she used her mental power to see that everyone here was dead, she started to set fire!
