Xu Huamin's family arrived at the base area so quickly, and the comrades of the Wuhan underground party were indispensable.
Xie Xuan was very curious about the identity of this comrade. After all, he had helped him. After the war of resistance against Japan was won, he would treat him to a drink if he had the opportunity.
He and the other party are two systems, and there must be no horizontal contact.
Of course, it is basically impossible for him to have a relationship with the other party.
However, no matter how curious Xie Xuan was, he couldn't ask Gong Bing.
Comrades on the secret front cannot inquire about each other's information. This is a serious violation of the principle of confidentiality.
But Xie Xuan knew that that comrade should be in the Wuhan Political Security Bureau.
Perhaps, there will be a chance to meet in the future.
Xu Huamin's family was moved to the base area, and Xie Xuan couldn't be idle.
He asked Ma Tian to find trouble with Xu Huamin's mistresses, not to blackmail them, but mainly to tell them that Xu Huamin was an underground party member, they were family members of the underground party, and their residence was the underground party's liaison station.
This kind of woman is the best at observing people's emotions. I heard that Xu Huamin is an underground party and may also implicate them. They all run faster than rabbits.
As soon as they ran away, Xu Huamin couldn't explain clearly.
Xu Huamin often took turns staying at his mistress's house, but rarely went to his own home.
At night, a dark figure sneaked into Xu Huamin's house carrying a bag. After a while, he came out empty-handed.
After Xu Huamin was arrested into the Military Police, he was very angry. He felt that even if he had problems again, he should not be arrested into the Military Police, right?
No matter how angry he was, there was nothing he could do against the Japanese.
Locked in the cell, Xu Huamin didn't even know what he had committed?
Could it be that the things he did to make money were discovered?
But even so, shouldn't the Japanese come forward?
If the Secret Service catches him, he can at least clear up the relationship with Li Junshi.
After being held in the military police for two days, Uchida Hayaki finally interrogated him. Seeing Uchida Hayaki, Xu Huamin's long-standing grievances were released.
Xu Huamin said loudly: "Commander Uchida, I am innocent."
There was a cunning look in Uchida Saki's eyes. He sneered and said, "Innocent?"
How could he arrest someone if there was no conclusive evidence?
"certainly……"
Being stared at by Uchida Hayaki's stern eyes, Xu Huamin became a little guilty.
Uchida Saki said coldly: "If you can take the initiative to speak out, I will give you a lighter sentence. If you conceal it and don't report it, then don't blame me for being ruthless."
Xu Huamin hesitated and said: "I...I was indeed greedy for some money..."
He knew very well the torture tools used by the gendarmerie. He would never survive it. Instead of talking about it after being tortured, it was better to talk about it now and avoid the physical pain.
"anything else?"
"We also resold some firearms and ammunition."
"anything else?"
"Let the detained suspects go privately."
Uchida Saya asked coldly: "The suspect is a Communist suspect, right?"
"I don't know, but they are anti-Japanese elements. Of course, there is no complete evidence. I took the money and asked the detention center to release him."
"How many anti-Japanese elements were spared?"
"Five or six...seven, eight or nine."
Uchida Saki said angrily: "You are so brave!"
"Commander Uchida, I did these things. Except for part of the money I collected, I sent it to Wuhan, and the rest was hidden at home."
Uchida Saki said coldly: "The money you sent to Wuhan is only half of your salary. Most of the money is used as activity funds for the Communist Party, right?"
Xu Huamin said in surprise: "The Communist Party? What Communist Party? I have nothing to do with the Communist Party."
"You still don't admit it yet? Those concubines of yours are all your traffic officers, and their residences are your intelligence stations. All the money you embezzled in the Secret Service was given to the Communist Party."
Xu Huamin shouted: "This is slander. I have never interacted with the Communist Party. How can I have anything to do with them?"
"You have never interacted with the Communist Party? So what is this?"
Uchida Saki took out a stack of files and a radio station.
"What...what does this have to do with me?"
Xu Huamin sneered: "This was found from your home, you said it didn't matter to you?"
"My family? Impossible. This is framed by someone!"
"You won't shed tears until you see the coffin. This was found from the secret compartment under your bed."
"The secret compartment under the bed? There is money hidden there. How could it be these things?"
Uchida Saki sneered: "For the Communist Party, how can money be as important as these documents and radio stations?"
Xu Huamin said anxiously: "Commander Uchida, what I hid at home is really money and gold bars. What are I doing with these broken documents and radio stations?"
If Uchida Saki was investigating his own corruption, he would never hide a word.
But if you believe that you are a Communist Party, you will never admit it, and you will not dare to admit it.
Once he admits it, what will happen to him?
Uchida Saki said: "Xu Huamin, if you refuse to cooperate, don't blame me. Come here and torture me."
Xu Huamin's physical condition was very poor, and he relied on that big cigarette to hang on. After being detained in the gendarmerie for a few days, he had become addicted. How could he stand being tortured again?
After a few whippings, the person fainted.
After pouring a bucket of water on him to wake him up, and just as he was about to be tortured again, Xu Huamin spoke up: "I am a Communist Party member. I will recruit him. Isn't it okay if I recruit him?"
If you don't do it, you'll be beaten to death. If you do, you can survive for a while.
If you can live one day, it is one day. If you can suffer less, then you should suffer less.
Uchida Saki has long since determined that his mistress is a traffic officer of the underground party. Every time he visits the brothel, it is to keep up with the online contacts and pass on information.
After getting Xu Huamin's confession, Uchida Hayaki finally breathed a sigh of relief. The underground party insiders of the Secret Service Department were uncovered, and the work of the Secret Service Department will be easier to carry out in the future.
After Xu Huamin was recruited, he originally only had to wait for sentencing or be locked up in the gendarmerie indefinitely.
The Eighth Route Army suddenly launched an attack on Zhengtai Road, which made the Japanese army angry and finally vented their anger on Xu Huamin.
Xie Xuan was very excited when he heard that the Eighth Route Army had a major operation, and immediately met with Gong Bing.
"I heard that the Eighth Route Army launched a major military operation?"
Gong Bing said with a smile: "Since the winter of 1939, the Japanese army has implemented the "cage policy" of "using railways as pillars, highways as chains, and bunkers as locks."
The Zhengtai Railway is one of the important pillars of the Japanese army's implementation of this policy. The Japanese army has built strong strongholds in large and small towns, stations, bridges, and tunnels along the railway. They are guarded by dozens to hundreds of troops and armored trains. patrol.
A line of peripheral strongholds has been built at key points 10 to 15 kilometers on both sides of the railway.
The Japanese army claimed that the Zhengtai Railway was an "inaccessible" area, and used it to isolate the Taihang Anti-Japanese Base Area where the Eighth Route Army Headquarters and the 129th Division operated from the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Border Area, and used it as a basis to attack the Anti-Japanese Base Area.
On August 20, 1940, the Eighth Route Army passed through the valley and river in the rain, avoiding the Japanese outer strongholds, and moved directly to both sides of Zhengtai Road. That night, it suddenly launched an attack on the entire Zhengtai Road, and the surprise attack was successful.
The right column of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region is responsible for attacking the section from Niangziguan to Luanliu on the Zhengtai Railway.
At 20:00 on the 20th, the first unit of the 5th Regiment of the main attack force of the right column of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region first sneaked into Niangziguan Village, annihilated the puppet troops in the village, and captured Niangziguan at dawn. Then the main force covered the engineers, destroyed a large number of enemy fortifications, and moved the Guandong Railway Bridge. Blast it up and then evacuate Niangziguan on its own initiative.
Except for a few data points such as Shouyang, the western section of the Zhengtai-Taiwan Railway is controlled by the 129th Division. Due to the fierce attack by the troops, communication with the Japanese troops in the western section of Zhengda Road was interrupted for several days. The Japanese troops at various strongholds were attacked and surrounded and were quickly wiped out.
The 129th Division mobilized and organized the public to destroy railways, stations and ancillary facilities using methods such as demolition, blasting, fire, and flooding.
At this point, the first phase of the Eighth Route Army's campaign got off to a good start. "
Xie Xuan said happily: "It's so exciting."
The Chinese people were excited, but the Japanese army was panicked. They never thought that there was such a powerful Eighth Route Army around their security area.
The Tubal Road in their eyes before can now threaten their safety.
The Japanese troops in Shenpu, unable to do anything about the Eighth Route Army, vented their anger on the imprisoned Communists.
Xu Huamin was also brought up and shot by the Japanese. His communist identity was completely confirmed, and no one could reverse his case.
