"Qiaodou Sack, don't shoot!"

As the voice rang out in the silent night, both the government and the underground party looked at the speaker in surprise, their eyes showing disbelief and a bit of confusion, not understanding why the other party would do this.

Only Zuo Zhong, Gui Youguang, Wu Chunyang and Vice Minister Li had subtle expressions. They were not surprised at all and seemed to have expected it.

The enemy in ambush was silent for a few seconds after hearing this sentence, and then replied in Japanese: "Show your identity and military rank, do not move at will, and do not get close."

The other party's Japanese accent was very standard, and his words had a strong flavor of Japanese passwords. Anyone who had not served in the Japanese army for a long time would never be able to learn it. This indirectly proved the identity of the ambusher.

"Hai!"

The speaker bowed sharply under everyone's disbelieving gazes, raised his head and said his name and mission.

"Kwantung Army Intelligence Department Captain Sankage Keiji has met you all. I was ordered by General Doihara to lurk the enemy troops. You should have seen the codes I left along the way."

"Search Daisnai."

The Japanese on the opposite side replied, and explained why the fire was fired from the shore: "Your Excellency, Commander, is cooperating with the garrison to attract the firepower of the dissidents, and we will carry out the follow-up mission."

The man who called himself Keiji Mikage nodded and emphasized again in Republican dialect: "The identities of these dissidents are very important and they cannot be shot."

After speaking, he looked at the people who were either shocked or angry, and pointed at Vice Minister Li in the crowd: "This person is the head of the underground party's intelligence department and controls all the intelligence personnel of the dissidents in the imperial-occupied areas.

The Empire's multiple intelligence failures in North and South China are inextricably related to it. What the Empire and General Doihara need is intelligence, not a useless dead man. "

Then he pointed his finger at Xu Enzeng: "This person is not only the deputy director of the Central Committee of the Shancheng Government, but also a relative of Minister Chen, an important figure in the Kuomintang Party.

By mastering the other party, the empire will be able to understand all the political secrets within the government. These secrets can make the top officials of the government take action and even cooperate with the empire.

Please rest assured that based on my observation, Mr. Xu is a smart man and a talented person who understands current affairs and will not engage in meaningless resistance. "

Xu Enzeng said "praise" with a smile. Sanjing Keiji focused his attention on Zuo Zhong, but did not introduce him directly. Instead, he asked a question.

"Gentlemen, you should have heard of the name Zuo Zhong, right?"

"Nani? Zuo Zhong!"

The enemy in the dark let out an exclamation and repeated Zuo Zhong's name loudly, appearing very surprised and a bit surprised.

It can be heard that Zuo Zhong does have some fame among the Japanese. This was earned with the lives of individual spies. The Japanese have long wanted to get rid of him.

Sankage Keiji smiled and looked at the calm Zuo Zhong and slowly said: "Yes, this person can be called the biggest enemy of the empire's intelligence agency. He destroyed the empire's intelligence network in Aurous Hill before the war started, and countless warriors were shattered as a result.

The base camp and the General Staff Headquarters have offered bounties for this person many times. You are very lucky. The person in front of you is the famous Deputy Director of the Military Command Bureau Zuo Chong. Zuo Jun, why don't you come out and say hello to us? This would be too rude.

It's a pity that I can't enjoy those canned beef, but it doesn't matter. I will definitely entertain Mr. Zuo well when we get to the 1st Army Headquarters in Taiyuan. General Doihara is also there. I think you will have a lot in common. "

Sankage Keiji or Cui Hongyong revealed Zuo Zhong's true identity with a smile on his face, his eyes filled with ecstasy.

If it weren't for the wrong occasion, he would have wanted to scream to the sky to express his inner excitement. He actually caught Zuo Zhong, and this was Zuo Zhong!

The empire's reward for the leader of the border area is as high as one million silver dollars. The reward for Zuo Zhong is not only a higher amount, but also a promotion in position and military rank. It is worthy of his having been lurking in the guerrillas for so long.

Following these Tubal people into the ravine, not having enough to eat or wearing warm clothes is only one aspect. The most dangerous thing is that they have to fight against the imperial warriors, and they must be ruthless, otherwise they will easily die in the hands of their own people, or be killed by others. see through.

Now that Zuozhong has been caught, he will soon become a major or even a lieutenant, return to his homeland with a large sum of money, and live the good life he has dreamed of. Mikage Keiji couldn't help it anymore and showed a proud smile.

"Instructor! You"

The young guerrilla soldier cried out in a crying voice. He could not accept the fact that Cui Hongyong was Japanese, but as soon as he spoke, the man with a Chinese character next to him covered his mouth.

Not just the young soldiers, all the members of the Shanxi South Guerrilla Detachment were in a daze and their morale was low.

Who would have thought that the instructor who once fought side by side with them and said that he had a sworn hatred for the Japanese turned out to be a Japanese spy.

But how could it be? !

In the past few years, the enemy has always been at the forefront of the enemy wars. I don’t know how many enemies I have killed, I don’t know how many times I have been injured, and my life has been hanging by a thread many times. How could such a person be a spy?

"hehe."

Facing Keiji Sankage's hot gaze, Zuo Zhong chuckled and walked out from behind the little spy. As if he didn't see the dark muzzles around him, he cupped his hands in admiration. "Mr. Cui, oh, no, hello, Mr. Sanjing, I didn't expect you to be the spy. You hid it so well that even I was deceived.

Also, when you encountered an ambush, you were very cruel to the Japanese. I personally saw no less than ten enemies die at your hands.

If I'm not wrong, the real Cui Hongyong is already dead. You assumed the other party's identity and sneaked into the border area as a progressive young man joining the army. Your plan is not trivial.

If you hadn't known my identity, I'm afraid you would have continued to lurk and even infiltrated the higher-ups in the border area. But there's one thing I don't understand, and I hope Mr. Sanjing can enlighten me. "

"Oh? Mr. Zuo, please tell me."

Mikage Keiji neither denied nor refused. Anyway, the reinforcements of the 1st Army were arriving in an instant. Zuo Zhong had no possibility of escaping today, so it was better to let the other party know the truth.

Zuo Zhong took a few steps forward again and said calmly: "It's not a coincidence that the Shanxi South Guerrilla Detachment suddenly appeared on the east bank of the Yellow River.

Pursuit and ambush are both scenes. The purpose is to gain my trust and let you enter the station to guide the bombers, right?

But why you didn't just take action instead of adopting such a dangerous and complicated plan is beyond me. "

"Pah~pah~pah~"

"Yes, Zuo Jun guessed very accurately. He is indeed the most powerful intelligence expert in the Republic of China."

Raising his hands and patting them a few times, Mikage Keiji said with a smile: "The advance team failed to leave the condolence group's convoy in Hancheng. General Doihara guessed that you might go from the imperial occupation area to the bandit area. So I was informed to lead people to search along the river in Daning County.

As for why he didn't arrest people directly, the reason is very simple. The empire has sent intelligence personnel into the border area many times, but failed to obtain useful information. The general decided to go with the flow and let me use the cover of the condolences group and you to lurk in the station to perform guidance tasks.

This can kill three birds with one stone. First, it can destroy the financial assistance provided by the Nanyang Chinese to the government and the underground party. Second, it can take the opportunity to eliminate the high-level rebels. The 1st Army can also cross the Yellow River, completely occupy the northern part of Shaanxi Province, and go straight to Huanglong to end the war.

Of course, if the general knew that Zuo Jun was also in the condolences group, he would definitely not give such an order. He would definitely go to Daning County to greet him in person and invite Zuo Jun to the headquarters to have a drink and have a good time. I don’t know if you have anything else to ask Zuo Jun. Yes, Sanjing promises to tell you everything. "

Idle time is also idle. Sankage Keiji doesn't mind chatting with Zuo Zhong for a few more words. When they arrive in Taiyuan, it will be difficult for him to talk to such a big shot.

After hearing his explanation, Zuo Zhong nodded repeatedly, as if suddenly enlightened, and then curiously asked the other party what the ambush was about tonight.

Mikage Keiji was in a good mood and answered all questions: "That day when I learned Zuo Jun's true identity in the bathroom, I immediately contacted other imperial agents and sent the news back to Taiyuan about Zuo Jun's identity and his upcoming visit.

After learning about it, the general ordered us to invite Zuojun to the occupied area. To this end, he did not hesitate to use the last advancing team. Zuojun may not know that the advancing team is the elite of the empire carefully selected by Commander Yoshio Shinozuka.

Each of them has undergone special training and is proficient in action and assassination. They are definitely not something that your side and the Eighth Route Army can resist. So Zuo Jun no longer needs to delay, and quickly order your people to surrender. "

Regarding persuading him to surrender, Zuo Zhong suddenly turned around and smiled at Vice Minister Li, then showed his white teeth and looked at Keiji Mikage who noticed something was wrong.

"Thank you Mr. Sanjing for clearing up my doubts. Zuo has no other questions. So, is the mysterious person who went to the abandoned cave dwelling to take the information your downline?"

As soon as these words came out, Mikage Keiji's expression changed drastically. Although he didn't know the reason yet, he knew that he had been exposed. In desperation, he shouted to the advancing team who was ambushing in secret to take action.

According to the plan, if something went wrong during the operation, the advancing team would kill everyone and capture only Zuo Zhong, Deputy Minister Li and Mr. Chen, and move towards the Yellow River to join the reinforcements.

The little spies and guerrillas heard the sound and were about to raise their guns, but were stopped by Gui Youguang, Wu Chunyang and Vice Minister Li. The imaginary gunfire did not sound.

"Shoot! Shoot!"

Mikage Keiji shouted at the top of his lungs, but received no response. A desperate suspicion arose in his heart.

At this time, the sound of gunfire on the bank of the Yellow River gradually subsided, and then the surrounding firelight brightened. A man wearing a Japanese military uniform came to the crowd holding a torch, and gave a standard Japanese military salute to Vice Minister Li. Said in blunt Republican dialect.

"Hello, Chief, the first team of the Anti-War Alliance is here to report!"

Hearing this sentence, Xu Enzeng raised his hand and gave himself a big mouth. First, the guerrilla instructor of the Eighth Route Army became a Japanese, and then the ambush Japanese shouted a report to the underground party. He suspected that he had not woken up yet.

Xu Enzeng was confused, but Sankei Keiji was not. As soon as the words "Anti-War Alliance" came out, he immediately pulled out his pistol and tried to kill Zuo Zhong in a last-ditch effort.

But Gui Youguang moved faster. He raised his hand and fired without looking. The bullet hit Mikake Keiji's wrist. The pistol fell to the ground and blood flowed out from the wound.

As soon as the gunfire rang out, several spies jumped up from multiple directions and pinned Keiji Mikkei firmly to the ground. They also removed the joints of his hands, feet and jaw to prevent him from committing suicide. The whole set of actions was very skillful.

Seeing that the overall situation had been decided, Zuo Shige walked up to Mikage Keiji, who was still struggling with fierce eyes, squatted down, patted the other person's face, and uttered a taunt.

"Douihara didn't tell you that villains shouldn't talk too much!"
