Chapter 2054: A New Plan of Exchanging Life for Death
"Mom, go watch the door." The sixth uncle said to his mother.

The old lady agreed, and walked to the gate of the courtyard with her bound feet and her crutches. She had a thread basket there, so she could sew soles for shoes at the gate.

"Do you really want to take down this artillery tower?" Li Shan asked Qian Chuaner in a low voice in the room.

Qian Chuan'er nodded and asked, "Do you think my plan will work?"

Li Shan pondered and said, "According to your plan, the difficulty is indeed much lower and it is also safer.

But you suddenly changed your plan of action, don't you need to give me an explanation? "At this point, Li Shan's eyes lit up and he stared at Qian Chuan'er's eyes!

Qian Chuan'er did not avoid Li Shan's gaze, but he had now determined that he would not go to the county town to snatch the remains of the martyrs!

He had a new battle plan, which was to outwit the Japanese artillery tower in Fulai Town and capture the Japanese squad leader alive, but use the Japanese squad leader to exchange for the remains of the martyrs! In other words, use the living to exchange the dead!

Why is this happening? In fact, there is only one reason, that is, not only Qian Chuan'er, but also Wang Laomao and all the others, felt conflicted when they learned that the Eighth Route Army wanted to cooperate with them to recover the remains.

On the one hand, they no longer trusted the Eighth Route Army.

Or to be more precise, it was not that they did not trust the Eighth Route Army, but they were worried that a traitor in the Eighth Route Army whose identity had not been exposed would report their actions to the Japanese army.

The reason why they thought there was a traitor in the Eighth Route Army was only because of a question that Lu Guo accidentally asked from a puppet soldier who had never been killed by him. The puppet soldier said that they were here to capture a woman!
Just this sentence was enough to alert everyone including Wang Laomao.

The Japanese and puppet troops came to Wujiaopo to capture a woman, and the woman who went to Wujiaopo could only be Leng Xiaozhi, and Sun Baoer was just a helper found by Leng Xiaozhi.

How did the Japanese and puppet troops know that Leng Xiaozhi would come to Wujiaopo to find Shang Zhen?

That could only mean that someone in the Eighth Route Army passed the news back to the Japanese army, and that person must be of a high rank, because given Leng Xiaozhi's cadre level in the Eighth Route Army, it would be difficult for people below her to know her whereabouts.

The connection between Shang Zhenying and the Eighth Route Army still relies on Leng Xiaozhi. Now that Leng Xiaozhi has disappeared, there is suspicion that there is a traitor within the Eighth Route Army. How can Wang Laomao and others dare to feel at ease and cooperate closely with the Eighth Route Army as before?

It was for this reason that when Li Shan mentioned to Wang Laomao that it was the Eighth Route Army that provided the intelligence and that their battalion was responsible for recovering the remains of the martyrs, Wang Laomao only hummed and hawed on the surface.

What is the most frightening thing in war? The most frightening thing is being stabbed in the back by the enemy, and the traitor is the one who stabs you!
On the other hand, since the Eighth Route Army took the initiative to offer them intelligence and support in their operations, they were also tempted.

Of course, they wanted to retrieve the remains of those martyrs, whether it was Shen Mugen or Leng Xiaozhi.

The Japanese devils hung the remains of the martyrs on the city gate tower. On the one hand, it was a public display to slap the face of their own camp, and on the other hand, it was a bait to lure them into the trap.

But can they not go just because the Japanese army has set up a tight net there?

No! Those were the Japanese devils slapping the faces of their Shang Zhenying!
Precisely because they were conflicted inside, Wang Laomao and the four company commanders including Qiu Bo discussed the matter for a whole day. In the end, although they let Qian Chuan'er bring the men out, they also told Qian Chuan'er to act according to the circumstances.

War has always been so cruel. No matter whether it was Shen Mugen or Leng Xiaozhi, once someone is dead, they are gone. We should always think about the living. As a Chinese general said, there is no war without casualties. It is just a matter of how many people die.

Even for the victorious side, it is very common to sacrifice a small number of troops to contain the majority of the enemy in order to achieve final victory.

Because they were worried about traitors in the Eighth Route Army, Qian Chuan'er and his men were extremely careful during their march, for fear that the news of their operation would be leaked.

When Qian Chuan'er arrived at Fulai Town, he heard that there was a Japanese squad leader leading a team guarding the Japanese artillery tower. He first thought that if there really were traitors in the Eighth Route Army, even if they succeeded in snatching the remains, this was the only way for them to return. If the Japanese army blocked them here, they would not be able to go back, so he asked the courier to take him around the town.

Li Shan was worried that he just followed the courier to the town, so he took the initiative to follow him.

And that Sixth Uncle was the Eighth Route Army’s bastion resident in the town.

When those puppet soldiers came to Uncle Six's house to discuss with the old lady about capturing the pig, they happened to be outside the yard.

Because the old lady had a loud voice, they were able to hear most of what happened outside the yard.

Originally, after looking at the terrain, Qian Chuan'er had the idea of ​​capturing the Japanese squad leader alive in exchange for the remains of the martyr.

However, he was worried that the rank of the Japanese squad leader was too low and the Japanese army would not be willing to exchange with them.

But when he heard that this Japanese squad leader was actually the nephew of the Japanese battalion commander in the county, he was sure that as long as he caught this Japanese squad leader, even if he was dead, the Japanese army would exchange him for the remains of the martyrs!

6◇9◇Book◇Bar

Qian Chuan'er doesn't understand philosophy.

If it was just a coincidence that the Japanese squad leader was the nephew of the Japanese battalion commander, then it was inevitable that the various anti-Japanese forces cooperated to find such a combat opportunity.

And he suddenly changed the operation of snatching the remains of the martyrs into an operation of snatching living people, which not only achieved their goal of getting the remains back but also minimized the risk of traitors!
How could the traitor in the Eighth Route Army have expected that their actions would suddenly change? He had no chance to pass on information.

Everyone would be suspicious when hearing about a traitor. Although Qian Chuan'er couldn't guarantee that Li Shan was not a traitor, he could let Li Shan know about the new plan.

At the same time, he was closely controlling Li Shan's actions. He didn't believe that if Li Shan was really a traitor, what evil tricks could he come up with with such a tight time frame and right under his nose!

Everything is calculated. Their Shang Zhenying’s war was a calculation, but now that it involves a traitor, they have to calculate even more!
And now Li Shan also clearly felt that Qian Chuan'er suddenly changed the battle plan, which must mean he had other ideas. Now that people have asked, Qian Chuan'er doesn't want to hide it anymore.

After his eyes met with Li Shan's for a while, Qian Chuan'er did not directly answer Li Shan's question but asked back: "There must be an explanation. Can you first tell me about my new battle plan?"

"Okay, let's capture that Japanese squad leader and let the Japanese devils come for exchange. This will be both profitable and face-saving!" Li Shan answered affirmatively.

"If you say it's okay, then I'll tell you frankly why I suddenly changed my plan." Qian Chuaner stared at Li Shan and replied.

Then he moved closer to Li Shan and whispered in Li Shan's ear in an almost silent voice: "There is a traitor in your Eighth Route Army!"
