Tang Chengcai was right. Xu Huanshan and others were still in the city and did not leave. After they separated from Tang Cheng that night, Xu Huanshan and others immediately changed their place of stay and began to sort out the confidential files they had brought out that night. From these confidential files, Xu Huanshan and others quickly selected some of the most valuable ones, and sent people to take them out of the city before dawn. As for himself, he stayed with the remaining two team members and continued to stay in the city guarding the remaining files.

Because of these confidential files, Xu Huanshan had already anticipated Zhongtong's next reaction, but he did not expect that the first thing Zhongtong would deal with was Brother Pao and the smugglers in the city. Just when Xu Huanshan was confused about this, a contact point of the Chongqing underground party in the city was suddenly destroyed by the Central Command. And the most serious thing is that this contact point that was cracked by the Central Government actually contained two original confidential files that he had just sent to the Chongqing underground party organization.

Xu Huanshan sent people to send confidential files to Chongqing underground party organizations because the contents of the files happened to be about Chongqing underground party organizations. But he did not expect that the Chongqing underground party organization that had obtained the confidential files failed to protect the files. Not only was the contact point uncovered, but even the files fell into the hands of the Central Government. Fortunately, Xu Huanshan is not affiliated with Chongqing's underground party organization, and his contact with them is only through a single line of contact through a liaison officer.

Xu Huanshan, realizing that something was wrong, immediately ordered the liaison officer to leave Chongqing first, while he and another team member continued to stay. Faced with the endless searches by the Central Unification agents, Xu Huanshan, disguised as a carpenter, hid well, but the Chongqing underground party organization suffered heavy losses. Xu Huanshan also regretted at this moment that he did not follow Tangcheng's reminder and left Chongqing that night. The Central Commander now took the warrant issued by the man in the Nan'an Villa and, with the cooperation of the city defense troops, tightly blocked all passages in and out of Chongqing.

In other words, even if Xu Huanshan wants to leave Chongqing now, it will not be easy. One day later, another contact point for Chongqing’s underground party was uncovered by the Central Government. Only this time, the underground party contact point surrounded by Zhongtong operatives fought back desperately. Although the contact point was eventually captured by Zhongtong's parents-in-law, they did not capture them alive. When Xu Huanshan learned the news, it was already 2 hours later, but he could do nothing.

As an old underground party member, Xu Huanshan knows the importance of these confidential files. All he can do now is to do everything possible to protect these confidential files. Xu Huanshan disguised himself as a carpenter and lived in a small street near the dock in the south of the city. Almost all the people living here were laborers and small craftsmen who worked on the dock. Zhongtong's plainclothes men searched the whole city, how could they let this place go unchecked, but they didn't see through Xu Huanshan, and they didn't find anything unusual here.

Zhongtong searched the whole city and gained a lot, but the underground party members they caught were not what they wanted. Because no matter how they tortured and interrogated the underground party members they captured, they knew nothing about the confidential files lost by the Central Government. Based on the current situation, someone at the Central Unification Headquarters finally came to their senses. They interrogated the two underground party members who were first captured here and asked about the origin of the two files.

After the interrogation failed, the President couldn't help but have a new idea. Could it be that there was someone else who attacked the small building that night and took away the confidential files? But in this city of Chongqing, those who have the ability to act are definitely not people from the Jianghu. If they are not members of the Chongqing underground party, then who are they? The senior officials of Zhongtong seemed to have grass growing in their hearts, and began to think about the departments in Chongqing that had such operational capabilities. After thinking about it secretly, they suddenly discovered that there were quite a few departments in Chongqing that had such operational capabilities.

Speaking of the violent departments in Chongqing city, there are not only military commanders and central commanders, but also the city defense headquarters, which has always been inconspicuous, there are many veterans who have come down from the front line. Moreover, after Tangcheng's action team was shelved, the Anti-Smuggling Department also formed a special operations section modeled after the action team, and there were also many veterans who had retired from the military. After careful analysis, the senior officials of the Central Unification Committee found that they were unable to determine who was behind these violent departments.

After going around in circles, the Central Committee finally focused their attention on the Chongqing underground party organization. After all, they found two lost confidential files in the underground party's contact point. While the Zhongtong side was in full swing, Tang Cheng, who learned that something was wrong, was thinking of ways to create trouble again to divert the Zhongtong's attention. The method Tang Cheng came up with was very simple, that is, he would pretend to be a member of the underground party and forcefully break through the roadblock arranged by the Central Government, making the Central Government think that the underground party members they were tracking had left Chongqing.

Tang Cheng didn't know that when he was thinking of ways to reduce the pressure on Xu Huanshan, Xu Huanshan also thought of the same way. Xu Huanshan thought better and simply, he had already planned to abandon some of the confidential files he had obtained to divert the attention of the Central Government. But there was only one team member left beside him, so Xu Huanshan, who had thought of a way, still needed time to wait for the southern Sichuan guerrillas to send someone to assist him. As soon as he delayed, Tang Cheng took the lead in taking action, because Tang Cheng was used to working alone and did not need helpers to cooperate at all.

That night, Tang Cheng, who had just had dinner, went to the study in the backyard alone. The action deduction before leaving allowed Tang Cheng to discover the loopholes in his plan. In the end, he also made the same decision as Xu Huanshan. He had to voluntarily abandon some confidential files in order to divert the Central Government's attention. As night fell, Tang Cheng, dressed in black, came out of his backyard and quickly moved to a road in Zhongtong along the route he had planned.

The best choice to leave Chongqing is naturally to take the water route, which is fast and convenient. But leaving Chongqing is not only an option to take the waterway. Chongqing also has land transportation to connect to the outside world. The Zhongtong Road Card that Tangcheng chose at this moment is the node location of one of the important roads. Most of the people passing through these roads at night are regular caravans or smuggling teams. Those who are alone like Tangcheng are definitely unique. Tangcheng was lucky tonight. Zhongtong Road, a hundred meters away from him, was deserted. There were only a few plainclothes Zhongtong people smoking and chatting in boredom.

Hidden in the distance, Tang Cheng did not act immediately, but waited quietly. Almost an hour later at the end of the month, he finally waited for a group of smugglers. The smugglers waiting in Tangcheng were returning to Chongqing from outside, so the plainclothes Zhongtong on the road card, after receiving the tribute from the smugglers, moved the roadblocks and let the smuggling poles pass through the road card. Tang Cheng, who had been waiting, pretended to take the opportunity to bypass Luka at this moment. "Who is it?" Tang Cheng deliberately pretended to be careless and was seen by a plainclothes official. When the other party shouted loudly, Tang Cheng simply ran quickly.

Tang Cheng, who was busy putting on a show at the moment, didn't know that more than 200 meters behind him, Xu Huanshan was also carrying a baggage, hiding in the grass on the roadside. When shouts and gunshots appeared, Xu Huanshan was startled. He thought he had been exposed in advance. Tang Cheng, who was deliberately discovered by the opponent, was running desperately at the moment. Although the bullets shot from behind were not accurate at all, the danger was still there.

After running for dozens of steps with his head lowered, Tang Cheng suddenly stumbled forward. The plainclothes officers chasing him behind him looked happy. However, when they ran to the place where Tang Cheng fell, they only found that There was a pool of blood on the ground. "Keep looking. Since he's injured, he can't run far!" The plainclothes leader who led the team didn't want to return in vain, so he immediately asked his plainclothes men to start searching. Plainclothes agents with flashlights then worked in pairs to conduct a detailed search of the area.

One group of plainclothes men just walked a dozen meters directly in front of the blood stain and discovered a second pool of blood. The two plainclothes agents who discovered the blood stains immediately became energetic. They then moved forward one after another, holding a flashlight in one hand and a pistol in the other, and slowly searched forward. Soon, they discovered new blood stains, and the footprints left on the ground showed signs of scattering. The two looked at each other and immediately understood what the other meant, so they didn't say anything and continued to cooperate and search forward.

"Bang! Bang!" The sudden sound of gunfire pierced the silence. Among the two plainclothes officers who had already searched forward and were about a hundred meters away, one of them immediately fell on his back following the sound of gunfire. The remaining plainclothes agent who was lucky enough not to be hit by the bullet immediately lay down on the spot and at the same time raised his gun and shot randomly towards his left front. The Zhongtong plainclothes officers who were searching in other directions heard the gunshots and rushed over with pistols in hand. Xu Huanshan, who was still secretly observing Luka's situation at this moment, was also startled by the sudden gunfire. The chaotic situation in front of him made him a little undecided.

The gunshots in the field to Luka's left only lasted for a short time and then stopped completely. The plainclothes officers who gathered around moved forward while covering each other. "Damn! He still ran away!" The plainclothes leader who led the team cursed. They lost one person but failed to catch the attacker. They would definitely receive a reprimand from their superiors when they returned. But at this moment, a plainclothes official from the Central Government took out a baggage from the grass nearby.

Xu Huanshan, who was still hiding in the grass and secretly hesitating in his heart, soon discovered that the plainclothes officers in the road in front of him suddenly seemed to be crazy. Some people were riding bicycles to the city, and some people lit the road on fire. The surrounding firewood piles seemed like something big had happened. When Xu Huanshan saw this, he did not stop where he was. Instead, after all the smugglers left, he quietly got up and left the place.
