Xie Xuan already has a plan in mind, but it requires the cooperation of Shancheng and the underground party.
Although he got back the information at night, he only went to the Flower House and could only give instructions to Roach.
As for the underground party, he had no chance to reply.
When Naomi Ueno was sending the report, two people were talking in a low voice in a house on Confucian Temple Lane in Dongtai County.
"Lao Hu, I just received news that a battalion outside the city has been taken over."
The man's voice was deep and aged. He had a beard and wore coarse clothes. He looked like an old farmer.
Lao Hu said in surprise: "How could the First Battalion be taken over? Zeng Shuji, who sent this information?"
Hu Feng, whose nickname is Hu Feng, has a face with Chinese characters, sharp edges and corners, and a well-proportioned figure, but his legs are slightly lame. He used to be in the army, but he went to work locally because he was injured. He is currently a member of the Taitung County Party Committee.
The famous name of "Zeng Shuji" is Zeng Binjie, who is the secretary of the Dongtai County Party Committee.
Zeng Binjie shook his head: "It should be someone from the mountain city. I don't know the specific identity yet. People from the first battalion came to the city to buy wine at night and ordered a few pigs. They accidentally revealed it."
Hu Feng asked: "Where is Comrade Donggua?"
Zeng Binjie said: "He didn't send any news, so it's probably inconvenient. I'm going to send pigs to the First Battalion tomorrow, and I'm going to send someone to the First Battalion to see if I can get in touch with Comrade Dong Gua."
Hu Feng asked: "Where is the comrade sent by the superior?"
Zeng Binjie shook his head: "He has taken away the information and has not replied to the letter or contacted the comrades at the liaison station."
Hu Feng asked worriedly: "Could the sudden control of the First Battalion have anything to do with this comrade? Or has the mountain city already known about him and specially sent someone to investigate?"
Zeng Binjie said softly: "We don't know yet, but we need to get in touch with Comrade Dong Gua as soon as possible to know what happened to the first battalion."
Hu Feng asked: "Comrades from the New Fourth Army, do you have any news?"
Zeng Binjie shook his head: "There is no news either."
At this time, Yang Zhiyi and the woman were also talking in a house on Xixi Street in Dongtai County.
Yang Zhiyi asked: "Is everything normal at the radio station?"
The woman said: "Everything is normal. I contacted the headquarters in the afternoon. There is absolutely no problem with the radio station. I have also been turning on the phone to receive signals. As long as the other party sends a report, I will know immediately."
Yang Zhiyi murmured to himself: "It's been a few days, why haven't you sent a report yet?"
The woman analyzed and said: "Maybe it's inconvenient, or maybe it's not time to send the report yet."
Yang Zhiyi said: "No matter what, we must ensure that the radio station is on standby at all times. Once the other party sends a report, it will be received immediately."
The woman said firmly: "I will always watch the radio station and promise not to leave even one step!"
Xie Xuan actually wanted to send a report at this time, but his radio station was in the hands of Ueno Naomi. Ma Tian had a radio station, but he couldn't use it alone.
Xie Xuan took out a telegram draft, handed it to Ueno Naomi, and said, "Miss Naomi, I want to send a telegram to Minister Li. I'd like to thank you for your beautiful fingers."
If he failed to pass the information to the comrades of the underground party tonight, the New Fourth Army would not be able to make a correct judgment.
Comrade "Winter Melon" may already know the situation of the first battalion, but he can't pass on the information at this time.
The comrades of the Dongtai underground party only gave the contact code and did not mention the specific name of "Winter Melon".
He could only find another way to report to Li Junshi to see if Tan Qiankun could know about the comrades in Dongtai, and then pass it on to the Jiangsu Provincial Committee and the New Fourth Army headquarters through the Shenpu Municipal Committee.
As for Comrade Dong Gua from the First Battalion, we will find a way to get him in touch with the Dongtai underground party at that time.
Naomi Ueno frowned when she saw the dense telegram drafts: "Such a long telegram? I still have to wait for a reply from Nanjing."
Sending a telegram is not like making a phone call. Each word must be translated into a telegram. Xie Xuan's telegram has several hundred words, so it would require thousands of telegrams. It would take less than two hours to send it all.
After all, after sending a telegram, sometimes you have to send it again in order to prevent the other party from receiving it completely.
Her beautiful fingers would probably be swollen if she sent this telegram.
Xie Xuan said: "Since it is a report, it must be detailed. Otherwise, you can streamline it more and more, but at most half of it, otherwise Minister Li will be unhappy."
What he wanted was this result. If Naomi Ueno didn't want to send a report, he had to let his men do it.
As long as he was out of Ueno Naomi's sight, he would have room to operate again.
Ueno Naomi shook his head: "I won't streamline things anymore. Don't your people have radio stations? Let them distribute them."
Even if the telegram was not long, she did not have time to send it now. After all, she had just sent the telegram to Nanjing and had to wait for a reply from Nanjing.
Xie Xuan had a troubled look on his face, sighed, and said helplessly: "Okay, I'll let them send the report."
Naomi Ueno couldn't live without the radio station, so he could only use Ma Tian's radio station.
Ueno Naomi didn't think much about it. Xie Xuan was here anyway and couldn't go out anymore. It was okay to let him wait with his men.
Anyway, even if they were in the same room, there would be no story.
The people Ma Tian brought were all action personnel. Although some could also send telegrams, they were also frightened by such a long telegram.
Xie Xuan consoled him: "You send me the first half, and I will do the rest myself. Don't look grim."
Sending a telegram is indeed a chore, especially for such a long telegram, where not a single code error can be made. If you are not a professional telegraph operator, you really don’t want to touch the transmitter.
On Xixi Street, even if the woman is very sleepy, she still stands in front of the radio station.
This is a residence provided by comrades from the underground party in Dongtai. It is very safe and the radio station is placed on the table.
The woman was really sleepy, so she lay on the table and squinted.
Just as she was about to fall asleep, the lights on the radio suddenly flashed rapidly.
The woman felt it immediately. She quickly grabbed the headphones from the desk, put them on her ears, grabbed the pen and paper from the desk and started copying.
The woman walked to the room and woke up Yang Zhiyi: "Lao Yang, this is the telegram I just received."
Yang Zhiyi glanced at the telegraph code, which was only two short lines, and immediately said: "Oh, translate the telegram immediately."
The shorter the telegram, the more urgent the situation.
Soon, the woman translated the telegram, and there was only one sentence: Huazhen surrendered to the enemy.
After Yang Zhiyi saw the telegram, he immediately walked out and woke up the underground party comrades living next door.
This information is too important to be delayed for a moment.
After returning, Yang Zhiyi asked the woman to forward the telegram to the New Fourth Army headquarters.
Soon, the head of the New Fourth Army received a telegram from Dongtai County.
If Hua Zhongyang really surrenders to the enemy, the New Fourth Army's countermeasures will have to be adjusted accordingly.
