Two hours before action.

At seven o'clock in the morning, the military police stationed in the mountain city took a routine vacation. Hundreds of soldiers who had passed strict screening blended into the crowd on the street after leaving the camp, and quickly disappeared.

At [-]:[-] a.m., a small arsenal affiliated to the Army Weihui drove out a number of trucks, and the cars were filled with weapons and ammunition boxes.

At [-]:[-], the former members of the Jinling Police Department and Bai Wenzhi failed to go to the Shancheng Police Station for work on time, and lost contact for a while.

At 45:[-], the elite of the Central Unity Operation quietly left the station in batches. The chief secretary Shen Dongxin and the director Zhu Liuxian (Jia┴hua) drove to a secret stronghold in the city.

At eight o'clock, the wounded battalion of the Seventh Army stationed outside the mountain city was relocated as a whole. Among the fruit army, the Gui lineage troops who were best at fighting in mountains and jungles pulled out their camps and moved closer to the urban area.

At [-]:[-], all telephone lines in Shancheng City were cut off. The reason to the outside world was that the storm was too heavy the night before, and the lines were severely damaged and could not be repaired in the short term.

At [-]:[-] a.m., the flag holders of more than a dozen halls of the Shancheng Gelaohui suddenly summoned their men and forbade anyone from leaving. Immediately there were many exchanges of fire on the scene, and some people tried to escape and were shot dead.

At [-]:[-], the public and private ferries from the main urban area to Jiangbei, the south bank area and other cities were suspended, and the naval gunboats conducted continuous inspections along the Jiang surface.

At [-]:[-], the Shancheng Telegraph Office closed its business, and the power supply to private houses, government agencies, foreign firms, and temporary consulates of various countries was also cut off.

At the same time, more than a dozen electric reconnaissance vehicles rushed out of the compound of the military command and the central government, and conducted electronic reconnaissance in the urban area in a dense formation, searching for all radio signals.

At 55:5, in a building [-] minutes away from Chaotianmen, Zuo Zhong came to the room alone and took out his mobile phone to light up the screen.

There is an unread text message half an hour ago in the inbox. After being translated, there is only one sentence in it: The relevant personnel have retreated, old K.

Zuo Zhong, who had no worries about his future, smiled slightly, put away his phone and looked at his watch, picked up the field phone and gave the final battle order.

"action!"

Following an order, multiple arresting teams secretly assembled in the city quickly rushed to the target location, and countless people were startled by the sudden appearance of military, police and special personnel.

According to the plan, the military command and the central command will each be responsible for the arrest of the two high-level officials. This is also the first joint operation of the two secret service agencies after they were upgraded.

As a student and an old superior, Zuo Zhong must support the work of Zhu Liuxian and Shen Dongxin to help them gain a firm foothold in the Central Committee.

As the saying goes, when you shoot a man, you shoot a horse first, and when you capture a thief, you capture the king first. Suspects, including 4 flag bearers and nearly 30 managers at all levels, became the targets of the first round of strikes.

If the spy's command network is completely destroyed, the remaining small fish and shrimp will fall into a situation of fighting on their own, and there will be no big waves.

Among them, Wu Xiwen, the most important target, is of course Zuo Zhong personally directing the arrest operation, and Gui Youguang and the special operations team are the personal guards.

The specific execution is in charge of a special agent led by Wu Jingzhong. Who let Jinjuwang's largest backstage be cut off by the river┴crab beast Kacha with a pair of pliers.

Gu Qi and Song Minghao went to another hall to arrest people in the second place, and acted at the same time in four places, without giving the Japanese time to react.

Zuo Zhong handed over the first encirclement at the scene of the arrest to Bai Wenzhi's subordinates, since the police deal with all walks of life every day, it is very suitable for interrogation.

As for the low-level personnel at the four halls and many commercial places, Brother Pao headed by Wen Rentang is responsible for the attack, and Wu Chunyang leads a remaining team to supervise and support.

The military police and the military will block all traffic arteries and roads out of the city. Before the operation is over, no one is allowed to leave the mountain city to prevent spies from absconding.

"Woo~woo~"

The shrill siren sounded suddenly all over the mountain city, and members of the Chongli Society scattered in the streets and alleys instinctively sensed something was wrong.

The little steward Yuanmen who reported the situation in the city to Wu Xiwen the night before was leading people to patrol the site. His face changed when he heard the sound, and he immediately led people to run towards the shop he was in charge of.

Pairs of cloth shoes quickly stepped over the puddle, splashing water in groups. The passers-by avoided and hid on both sides of the road, seeing that they were getting closer and closer to the shop.

But when they came to a small street, dozens of strong men with feathers on their heads and oiled paper umbrellas in their hands suddenly appeared in front of them, all with sharp hatchets pinned to their waists.

This is the most typical costume of Shancheng Paoge. The bright red feathers mean that a fight is about to begin, and only the living can leave this place.

Yuanmen's heart sank, he raised his hand to block his subordinates and wanted to turn around, but immediately found that the direction he came was also quietly blocked by a group of pao brothers.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the shops and homes on both sides of the small street closed their doors and windows one after another, and the banging of door panels resounded in the rainy alley.

People passing by also sneaked away with their heads down. Living in this era, knowing when to flee is the most basic survival skill.

The rain fell all over the roof and gathered in the grooves of the tiles and flowed onto the bluestone road. Soon there were only the sound of heavy breathing and the sound of running water.

The robe buddies blocking the way threw away their umbrellas, and silently pulled out a piece of cloth to tie the handle of the knife to the palm of their hand. According to the rules of Jianghu, people will die if the knife falls, and they will not die forever.

Seeing this scene, the people of Chongli Club understood that a fight was inevitable, and without asking each other's identity or reason, they all threw down their rain gear and pulled out their weapons.

Because it's useless to ask, the only way to survive is to fight to the death, Yuanmen clenched a short knife, bit the cloth wrapped around his hand with his teeth and pulled it hard.

"Form formation!"

After finishing his weapons, he yelled at his subordinates. With the number of people at a disadvantage, the only way to turn defeat into victory is to rely on cooperation to fight a bloody path.

The members of the Chongli Society automatically formed a team of three upon hearing the order, covering each other back to back and moving towards the shop, constantly turning the direction of the blade, ready to fight back at any time.

Brother Pao, who blocked the way, was not afraid when he saw this situation. The elder brother would rarely do anything, but relatively, once he did, it would definitely be a conflict that would be difficult to reconcile, and his methods were more vicious than the Caohong Second Gang.

There was no order, no extra nonsense, everyone rushed to the team of Chongli Society silently, life and death are fate, wealth and honor are in the sky, if you want to get ahead on Jianghu Lake, you have to work hard.

The sparks from the collision between the blades bloomed in the rain, and the sharp blades scratched the skin to create wounds, and the red blood mixed in the rain and flowed wantonly.

The battle has entered a heated state from the very beginning, Yuanmen slashed one person's shoulder one by one, and swiped the knife across the other person's neck with his backhand while the opponent was retreating.

"Pfft..."

A blood mist ┴ sprayed out, and the opponent lost his strength instantly, covered his wound and fell heavily to the ground, and then closed his eyes forever.

No one cared about his death, everyone's eyes were red-eyed, one side was well-trained, the other side was fearless of death, and from time to time someone fell down and became a stepping stone for others.

Life at this moment is like weeds on the side of the road, worthless and extremely fragile. The most primitive killing instinct in human genes drives the two sides to start a bloody duel.

A Chongli Society group was surrounded by Brother Pao, two of the three had already been hacked to death, and the remaining one was covered in blood, and fled in confusion, waving weapons around.

Just after running a few steps, he suddenly saw the door of a restaurant opened more than ten meters away, and a strong desire to survive surged in his heart, supporting him to stumble and run over.

Just when he was about to step into the threshold of the hotel and a smile appeared on his face, a foot stretched out from inside and kicked hard on his lower abdomen, sending him flying.

Before he got up, more than a dozen hatchets shining with cold light fell on him. When the crowd dispersed, a trace of surprise froze in his slowly dim eyes.

After a while, a pair of feet stopped beside him, and a special agent of the Military Unity Office felt for his pulse, turned around and returned to the restaurant, and reported to Wu Chunyang in a low voice.

"Director, I'm out of breath."

"Well, sit down."

Wu Chunyang picked up a peanut from the table, peeled it and threw it into the mouth, and replied casually, staring at Brother Pao and the spy who were fighting in the distance.

The little spy poured him a cup of hot tea with keen eyesight, then sat down obediently at the side, glanced outside the door and asked hesitantly.

"Director, the deputy asked the brothers to arrest the steward of the Chongli Society. Is it not good for us to hand it over to Brother Pao? If this Yuanmen dies, it will be troublesome."

Wu Chunyang patted his trousers, swept away the peanut skins on them, and pointed to the three-person team of Chongli Club with amazing fighting power, and said leisurely to the little spy.

"See, this is the standard hand-to-hand combat formation in the Japanese infantry drills. Three people form a triangular formation. Good fighting skills attack from the front and left, and almost protect the flanks from the rear.

This tactical formation can be used to attack and retreat, and with tacit cooperation, it can exert a very strong lethality. The soldiers on the front line have encountered it many times, and these spies are not so easy to deal with.

The deputy asked to try to catch as many people as possible, but he couldn't shoot. I won't ask Brother Pao to help. Do you want you to go up?

Furthermore, without Wu Xiwen, there will still be Zhang Xiwen and Zhao Xiwen. Through this matter, we will give the pao brothers a long memory, not give the Japanese an opportunity to take advantage of it, and cut off their way of cooperating with the devils. "

After finishing speaking, he took a few sips of tea from the teacup amidst the sudden realization of the little spy's expression, and did not get up to give the order until the sound outside became smaller and smaller.

"Go, go out and wash the floor."

"Yes!"

Dozens of spies sitting in the lobby of the restaurant stood up at the same time, and a group of people walked out of the gate in a mighty manner, rushing towards the enemy like tigers descending from the mountain.

Facing the sudden new force, the already exhausted members of the Chongli Society could not stop it. The battle was over in just a few tens of seconds.

The leading Yuanmen resisted to the end and tried to commit suicide, but was stopped by the quick-eyed little spy and brought to Wu Chunyang.

Looking at the defeated general who was full of dissatisfaction, Wu Chunyang stopped paying attention with a chuckle, and waved to the little spies standing in the rain.

"Control the scene and seal up the store!"
