Li Youcai hid in the darkness and never showed up, looking carefully at the fire in the distance.
There was a middle-aged man sitting next to the fire, hesitating whether to step forward.
I haven't heard any news from the Independence Group for a long time. Yesterday afternoon, the guy selling cigarettes came to him and said that someone wanted to see him. He was in an old place and he wanted to light a fire to make contact.
He didn't need to think about it to know that it was Hu Yi or Ma Liang who wanted to see him, but when he came here, he found that the person who came was obviously not from Jiulian!
So he wanted to confirm whether it was an invitation from Jiulian. He had never been so nervous. Hu Yi didn't come, Su Qing didn't come, Ma Liang didn't come, and not even anyone he knew from Jiulian was there.
He didn't know who was coming. He had met Ma Liang once a few days ago. After the imperial army's large-scale raids during this period, the Ninth Company had not returned to the wine station, and he was a little worried.
If the Jiulian Company was taken over by the Japanese, should I go out to meet them?
In this way, I don't have to step on a few boats and can happily hang out in the city.
There was some sadness in his heart, and one of his trump cards was missing. Looking back on the past days, Hu Yi helped him with many things. Although they were using each other, without Jiulian, he would definitely not be able to get to this point. Maybe It has been exposed for a long time, and there may be grass growing on the grave.
After waiting in the dark for a full hour, Li Youcai, who was annoyed by mosquito bites, finally decided to meet the visitor. Even if Jiulian was gone, he could still find a place to burn incense through this middle-aged man.
Li Youcai quietly mentioned the shell gun that had not been fired in eight hundred years, and slowly appeared behind the middle-aged man.
Li Youcai kept a distance from the middle-aged man: "Who are you and why are you here?"
The middle-aged man slowly turned back with a smile on his face: "Haha, let me introduce you. My surname is Ding. I am from the Independent Group. Are you Li Youcai?"
In fact, the political commissar confirmed that the man in front of him was Li Youcai, and had arranged for someone to draw a portrait of him. Although the drawing was not very good, he recognized him at a glance. He was an unusual person who could wear the traitor uniform so energetically.
Li Youcai didn't intend to tremble with him, and went straight to the point: "Stop talking nonsense, tell me, what are you doing here in the middle of the night? Do you know who I am?"
"Don't be nervous. I know everything about you and Jiulian. Don't worry, not many people know about this." The middle-aged man replied calmly.
"Nineth Company...How is the Nineth Company now?" Li Youcai was stunned for a moment.
"There's nothing wrong with the Ninth Company. They are on a mission. Because something is urgent, I came to you for help. Don't worry, we won't let you work in vain."
"Hu Yi is okay?" Li Youcai only cared about whether Hu Yi was dead or alive. Now that he heard that Jiulian was okay, he subconsciously asked. As for whether his work was in vain, it didn't matter to him.
"It's okay. They are all fine. They will be back in a few days." The middle-aged man answered him with a smile.
"How do you know this place?"
"Of course it was Company Commander Hu who told me, otherwise do you think I could know this place?"
Political Commissar Ding waited for a long time, but Li Youcai didn't answer. He couldn't help but ask again: "Do you have any questions?"
Li Youcai sorted out his thoughts: "You came here just to tell me the news about Jiulian, right?"
Political Commissar Ding waved to Li Youcai: "Come and sit down and say, I need your help to inquire about something!"
Li Youcai put away his shell gun and sat down next to the political commissar: "I haven't asked yet... what do you call me?"
"Political Commissar of the Independent Regiment, Ding Deyi."
Li Youcai, who had just sat down, felt as if his butt was on fire and immediately jumped up: "Are you the political commissar?"
"What, you don't believe me? Do you want me to tell you what you did to Director Su and Hu Yi?"
Li Youcai sat down slowly, feeling a little discouraged: "Have they told you everything?"
"Our army is different from what you think. We have strict discipline. Don't worry, no one else knows about these things except the person involved."
"Uh..." Li Youcai had mixed feelings in his heart. It's strange that I can believe you! What kind of virtue does Jiulian have? Am I not clear about it?
The political commissar had no idea what Li Youcai was thinking, so he continued: "You know about the Eighth Route Army's attack on Qixian County some time ago, right?"
Li Youcai, whose butt was not hot from sitting, jumped up again: "You want to attack Meixian?"
"Hey, young man, can you be more steady?" Political Commissar Ding had a black line on his face. He heard Su Qing say that Li Youcai was very organized and calm, but why was he so irritable?
"Oh, don't you look at what you are talking about? Which one is not a big deal? Do you really want to attack Meixian?" Li Youcai simply stopped sitting to avoid jumping up later.
The political commissar cleared his throat and asked, "Have you heard of Sun Dianying?"
"The 62nd Army of the National Army? The one who robbed the tomb? Aren't they in the south? You may be asking me this question in vain, he is a big shot!"
The political commissar asked again: "Don't worry, you should know very well that there is a person named Lazy Guy under you, right?"
"Lazy guy? What's wrong with him?" Li Youcai finally stopped holding it in. Fortunately, he didn't sit down, otherwise he would have jumped up again. You can tell who the lazy guy is just by his name. Can he be related to a high-ranking official in the national army?
"To tell you the truth, we have found out the spy that the Japanese arranged to join the Independent Group through you. His contact person is a lazy guy. You may not know this yet, right? Moreover, our underground personnel found out after a follow-up investigation that the lazy guy The ghosts are still connected with the Guizi Provincial City Super High School, I guess...you must have been kept in the dark too, right?" The political commissar told the simple story.
Li Youcai was stunned again. Unexpectedly, he had so many capable men under his command. His mind went blank and he was immediately confused.
But he soon came back to his senses and began to think carefully about the causes and consequences.
The political commissar said nothing and looked calmly at Li Youcai, who was in a daze.
After a long while, Li Youcai said in frustration: "Maeda asked me to arrange for people to join your independent group and said hello to Ma Liang in advance. You can't blame me for this, and I will arrange it. At least you know the situation in advance and have a goal. Now, since You have found this ghost, so what happens next should have nothing to do with me, right?"
Seeing that Li Youcai had regained his mood, the political commissar probably thought carefully: "Don't be nervous. This matter really has nothing to do with you, but the process is very complicated. According to the intelligence we have learned from inside sources, a liaison officer from the Japanese Special High School had an accident and entered Meixian Hou was killed by an unknown person, and the murderer happened to be a member of the National Army's Anti-Corruption Team."
"This has nothing to do with me, right?" Li Youcai asked cautiously.
"The Japanese are eager to get our information and have re-sent liaison personnel. They are now in Meixian! You can't tell anyone about this!" The political commissar finally told Li Youcai the information obtained by the underground organization.
In fact, there is a great risk for the political commissar to do this. If Li Youcai leaks this information, the gendarmerie may be able to use this information to investigate. There must not be many people who can get the information that the Special High School Department sent people to Mei County. Intelligence personnel who enter the enemy's interior may be exposed.
"You mean to use lazy people to hang out the people from the special high school class and kill them? Is that necessary? I know the new people in the gendarmerie. Can't we just do it?" Li Youcai finally figured it out. situation, he asked cautiously: "By the way, do slackers also have to be eliminated?"
"No, since the Japs want to get information from this line, then we can just use this line. Do you understand?" The political commissar finally told Li Youcai of his plan.
"What do you want?"
"This matter must also be kept secret. We need you to arrange for our people to go through all the new people who come to the Military Police. Uh... With your current status, it would be a pity not to join the Eighth Route Army." The political commissar felt that there was no need to beat around the bush when talking to this traitor. , this is a smart man!
"Okay, let's talk about this later. I think you should know about my kennel. Ask your people to come find me tomorrow night!"
"Refreshingly, the contact person will tell you when the time comes: The house at the entrance of my hometown in Luoye Village has collapsed."
"No, no, no, just arrange for someone to look for me directly. No one will look for me in the middle of the night."
"If you are in a hurry then, just use a white pen to draw an inverted triangle on the door."
"Oh, your people in the county know my details, can you please don't make it so complicated?"
"You are wrong. There are very few people who know your identity! You should know that when you told them about the Sheephead Plan, our county situation organization was cracked down by the enemy, and no one turned you in, right? So, you have to believe us, Our intelligence personnel will not let you be exposed even if they sacrifice themselves!"
"Then it's settled." Li Youcai didn't believe it at all. What he said was better than what he sang? Are there no traitors among you? When Hu Yi killed everyone in the hospital, who was his target?
The political commissar was not engaged in front-line intelligence work. He had no idea that Li Youcai knew far more about the Eighth Route Army's activities in the city than he did, and that the traitor had something completely different in mind.
Faced with this situation, Li Youcai thought quickly and suddenly asked: "As far as I know, there seems to be no new arrivals from the gendarmerie during this time!"
"..." This time it was the political commissar's turn to be speechless. After thinking about it carefully, he realized that indeed, he had overlooked that if the people from the special higher education course did not join the gendarmerie, then there would be no way to investigate this matter.
After a while, the political commissar finally became frustrated: "What do you think?"
"Me? I have no opinion!" Li Youcai did not express his position on the spot, but asked: "I just want to know, what does this matter have to do with Sun Dianying? And I, a small character..."
