Chapter 1644 Great changes in Jizhong

One of the iron-hulled boats captured by the Ninth Battalion was repaired and hidden in the canal branch.

Although it has strong maneuverability, it is too conspicuous, and sooner or later the traitors who defect to the Japanese will find out and report it.

Jiuying's habit is to hide things that are not needed temporarily. It is a good idea to dig a trench by the river and bury them.

On the way to retreat north, a platoon of more than thirty people arranged by Li Xiang quietly left with food.

Hu Yi asked Big Dog to lead a platoon, and quietly left the team and headed west back to the east side of the canal to meet up with Battalion Commander Li who had been hit by Hu Lie La.

The first is to support Battalion Commander Li who has lost his combat effectiveness in case of possible changes, and the second is to inquire about Su Qing's whereabouts.

The remaining members of the Ninth Battalion mingled with Wang Shun's troops and continued heading north.

Until dawn, we finally arrived at Wang Shun's residence: Dongwangzhuang.

The fourth platoon of Mr. Li who stayed behind sent back the news: the Japanese stayed in Donglu Village and did not pursue them all night.

The battle last night was fierce, and the Ninth Battalion and Wang Shun's troops suffered heavy casualties.

After arriving at Dongwangzhuang, the exhausted people breathed a sigh of relief and could finally rest.

Next to the gate of the broken courtyard hall.

Hu Yi blinked his red eyes and looked at his blurry face in the small round mirror hanging on the wall.

It was obvious that his eyes had been poisoned by poisonous gas and his vision was severely reduced.

Xiao Hongying wore a mask and stood at the table two or three meters away from Hu Yi: "Fox, don't worry too much, heal your injuries first."

"Don't be careless. The Japs didn't chase you last night. They will probably surround you during the day."

Xiao Hongying made marks and lines on the map from time to time: "Wang Shun and the others have dug out all the roads. Even if the Japanese come, they can't move any faster. Besides, there's Li Laosi and the others on the bicycle watching, so there's no need to worry."

"Is there any news about the mule?" After Hu Yi finished speaking, he came to the table and sat down, taking a broken bowl and pouring water for himself.

"Don't get so close to me." Xiao Hongying quickly jumped away: "Li Laosi said that after the Japanese arrived in Donglu Village, they turned around and went south. With the temper of the mule, there is no need to worry at all."

While the two were talking, the curtain on the door of the room was lifted, and Liu Yuanqing appeared.

Liu Yuanqing was in a similar situation to Hu Yi, both eyes were red.

There is a dustpan for pancakes in the right waist arm, and a small wooden bucket of porridge in the left hand.

He walked a few steps quickly, sat down directly under the broken table, and grinned at Hu Yi: "Hello, battalion commander!"

Wang Shun, who was following him, came to Hu Yi opposite with a stack of bowls in his hands to pick up bowls of porridge and share cakes.

Invite Hu Yi to have breakfast.

Xiao Hongying, who was standing far away, blinked her big eyes, jumped to the table, picked up a bowl of porridge with her left hand, and quickly rolled up three pancakes with her right hand: "I'll go out to eat."

If you are infected with Tiger La, you should protect yourself and cut off the infection route, so that you will not harm the people around you.

As for whether it is effective, no one knows.

"Captain Hu, thank you for your kindness!" Wang Shun said sincerely, "From now on, wherever I am needed, feel free to speak up!"

"No need to be like this, as long as the team fighting the Japanese is our own people!" Hu Yi looked at this person helplessly.

Wang Shun was a little embarrassed: "Open the window and speak frankly. It's not that I don't want to accept the eight-way adaptation, but that I do have some hard-to-discuss difficulties."

"I understand." Hu Yi nodded.

"That's good, that's good. You eat first, and I'll go see the injured brothers." After Wang Shun finished speaking, he turned around and went out.

Xiao Hongying offered many tempting conditions, but failed to persuade him to accept the Eighth Route Army's adaptation.

Obviously, the reason is not simple.

Definitely not all of them Wang Shun said he hoped to stay in his hometown to protect the villagers from all over the country.

Liu Yuanqing lowered his voice: "Wang Shun secretly told me that he has people from the National Army guerrillas under his command."

The Japanese launched a large-scale attack on northern Shaanxi from Mengsui, and northern Shaanxi faced great pressure. The Eighth Route Army headquarters secretly dispatched the main force from Jizhong to support.

It is very difficult to completely keep secret the large-scale secret mobilization of troops.

Therefore, the headquarters requires the ministries that have entered the plains to continue to maintain an offensive posture against the enemy at any cost to confuse the Japanese.

To put it simply, the order issued by the Eighth Route Army headquarters asked all units entering the plains to sing the story of an empty city.

For confidentiality reasons, the reasons were not communicated to the ministries.

However, after the troops were transferred, the local armed forces became weak, and it was necessary to readjust the deployment of personnel and combat forces.

Guantao North.

Inside the doorway of the dilapidated house, the monkey was taking a nap against the doorway with a shell gun box in his arms.

Seven people sat around a table, trying to keep their spirits up.

It seems that everyone except the monkey should have a sleepless night.

Su Qing, who was sitting alone, occasionally said a few words, basically assigning tasks.

No specific arrangements were made for young people's discussions.

The young people gathered in three directions discussed in low voices.

Su Qing picked up the message in front of her.

After having a radio station, reporting and receiving messages from superiors will be faster.

The codebook that Cut Nine brought came from the headquarters, which was different from the Jizhong Division.

The intelligence group is ostensibly directly under the headquarters and has parallel contact with the former enemy headquarters.

In fact, it was the newly formed North China Special Police Division used by superiors to deal with the Japanese alone.

As for coordinating the withdrawal of the Japanese troops who entered Mengsui, we can only think about it.

Discussions are still heated among young people from the peninsula.

The young man opposite Su Qing was holding the notebook in front of him with one hand, and holding a pen in the other hand to record.

After a while, the young man stopped writing and raised his head: "Captain Su, according to your arrangement, we are divided into six teams, focusing on developing intelligence personnel from the puppet Korean army, forming an intelligence collection network, and then secretly forming a military force within the puppet Korean army." strength?"

Su Qing nodded: "That's right."

"Then, can I make a request?"

"You said."

"Anti-espionage work. I suggest that our people form a capable team of anti-corruption operations!" The young man said firmly.

Su Qing shook his head: "There are too few of you coming this time, so we can't afford the loss."

"We can do ideological work for the puppet North Korean troops who surrendered and select people from among them." The young man had already thought of a way: "Sooner or later we have to fight back to the peninsula! Both intelligence work and armed forces need to be developed."

Su Qing weighed it in his mind for a while and nodded: "Okay!"

"Then look, can you lend Comrade Hou to us as a military instructor?" The young man turned his head and looked at the monkey who was napping against the door with his gun in his hand.

"No, I'll arrange a suitable candidate for you." Su Qing immediately thought of Yang Chengzhi.

"On behalf of the Korean people, thank you."

An intelligence agent representing Korea?

Su Qing ignored it directly: "Today's meeting will be held here first. When you get back, you first draw up a personnel plan and hand it over to me tomorrow..."

Several young people in the room went out one after another.

Then, the correspondent who had been waiting next door hurriedly entered the room and handed a letter: "Captain Su, this is a document transferred by the superior through the underground transportation station."

Su Qing took the envelope, opened it and read it quickly, frowning slightly: Plastic surgery?

The armed task force and the intelligence team led by him should be outside the scope of the rectification.

This document is obviously aimed at the reorganized departments of the Jizhong Military Division.

By the same token, Jiuying must be within the scope of Zhengfeng.
