Leitao arrived at the outer perimeter of the Japanese Army outpost in the valley that Tang Zhangshan had mentioned earlier. Leaning forward and lowering his stance, he used the grass and rocks to conceal his figure as he moved slowly ahead. He listened closely to the surrounding sounds, mindful of any slight rustling from his equipment.
Taking out his binoculars, Leitao observed the enemy troop deployment. The stronghold was surrounded by simple barbed wire, and a Japanese soldier stood guard in the watchtower, periodically scanning the surroundings while a searchlight swept back and forth in a regular rhythm. Leitao noted the positions of the guard posts, the number of personnel, and the distribution of firepower points, turning infiltration and attack plans over in his mind.
Having finished his observation, Leitao retrieved a silenced modded Type 81 assault rifle from the Bagua Spinning Top Space. He swapped out the magazine for a high-capacity drum magazine and turned on the night-vision infrared scope. Then, he crept quietly toward the outpost, using the cover of night and the terrain to approach the barbed wire.
