In Confucian Temple Lane, Dongtai County, where Dongtai County Party Committee Secretary Zeng Binjie lives, a man in military uniform with thick eyebrows and big eyes came to him. He was Tan Chunxing, the company commander of the 1st Battalion and 2nd Company of the 84th Regiment.
Tan Chunxing, an underground party member who infiltrated the 8th Security Brigade, codenamed "Winter Melon".
Tan Chunxing held Zeng Binjie's hands tightly and said excitedly: "Zeng Shuji, the Eighth Brigade has surrendered to the enemy. Can I withdraw my troops?"
Zeng Binjie said: "You can't come back yet, you have a new mission."
Tan Chunxing asked anxiously: "Am I going to be a puppet soldier?"
After joining the Kuomintang army, he was already under a lot of pressure, the misunderstanding of his family, the eyes of the people, and he had to collude with the Kuomintang army. Every day was torture.
If he becomes a puppet soldier, he is a traitor, and he will face even greater pressure.
Zeng Binjie said seriously: "Yes, your task is very difficult. We must win over Peng Guowen to pull out the team at the right time, and even instigate the entire Second Army to rebel."
Tan Chunxing asked doubtfully: "Isn't it the same if you pull it out now?"
Zeng Binjie explained: "Pull out the troops now will only make the Second Army more like a puppet army. Peng Guowen is willing to resist Japan. We got information from other channels. He actually received instructions from Shancheng. Will agree to serve as commander-in-chief of the Second Group Army. After the Eighth Brigade surrenders to the enemy, it will inevitably expand. By then, your position will be promoted, and we will have other troops who will take the opportunity to break into the Second Group Army. By then, your equipment will be obtained Upgrade, the Japanese will give you guns and bullets, why not? If you come out now, you will suffer a big loss."
Tan Chunxing said sadly: "Being a puppet soldier will be a lifelong stain."
Zeng Binjie said: "The organization sent you to break into the puppet army. This is fundamentally different from being a puppet army. When you were in the national army, you were wronged, and after you joined the puppet army, you had to endure the humiliation and bear the burden. Of course, if you do If not, you can bring it up, and the organization will consider sending other comrades to take over your task. After all, there are many comrades in our party who also serve in the Japanese and puppet organizations. They have to endure the incomprehension of their relatives, the misunderstandings of their classmates and friends, and have to endure the misunderstandings of their classmates and friends every day. Living under a mask, you may not be able to complete this task."
Tan Chunxing immediately said firmly: "Who said I can't complete it? Please rest assured, organization, I will be a good puppet soldier, make more friends within the puppet army, actively influence Peng Guowen, and strive to pull out all the Second Army."
Zeng Binjie smiled and said: "Of course someone will do Peng Guowen's work. You just need to do your own thing well. What you just said is right. Make more friends and make more friends, and there will naturally be fewer enemies. .”
Tan Chunxing asked: "I understand. By the way, didn't I say that some comrades would contact me? Why hasn't the code been sent?"
Zeng Binjie said: "He has contacted us through other channels."
Tan Chunxing said: "This comrade must be among those who came from Shen Pu. He appears to be a traitor agent and is under greater pressure than me. If he can do his job well, I can do it even better."
Zeng Binjie explained: "This comrade is like walking a tightrope all day long. He must be cautious and more cautious. He must have his reasons for not contacting you."
Tan Chunxing said: "I will follow this comrade as an example in the future."
He didn't know who the comrade was. He could only guess that the comrade was among the people in the Secret Service.
He interacted with people from the Secret Service and was put under house arrest as soon as they met. It may be that it was indeed difficult for that comrade to contact him.
Zeng Binjie warned: "Comrade Donggua, you must always remember that your safety is greater than the sky. No matter how important the information is, it is not as important as your safety. You must keep this in mind!"
Yang Zhiyi was also packing his luggage on Xixi Street.
Their mission has been successfully completed and they can return to Shenpu first.
The woman suddenly asked: "Lao Yang, do you think that comrade should have gone back by now?"
This time when she came to Dongtai, she sent and received several important telegrams, which was a worthwhile trip.
Especially her cooperation in executing the plan made her admire that comrade very much.
Although she didn't know the identity of that comrade, she was infinitely curious in her heart. It would be great if she could meet that comrade and discuss this trip to Dongtai together.
Yang Zhiyi shook his head: "I don't know."
He was actually also very curious, who was that comrade?
However, the party has iron-clad disciplines. You cannot inquire about things that should not be inquired about, and you must not discuss things that should not be discussed.
The safety of that comrade cannot be affected by their temporary curiosity.
The woman asked: "Xie Xuan has also arrived in Dongtai. He single-handedly planned the recruitment of the 8th Security Brigade this time. This person is a great threat to our party. Why don't the superiors take this opportunity to get rid of him?"
She thought a lot about Xie Xuan's appearance in Dongtai.
I even thought about it, could Xie Xuan be my comrade?
But she quickly rejected the idea.
How could Xie Xuan be his comrade? He won Ueno Naomi's trust and captured the 1st Battalion of the 84th Regiment. He was said to be particularly fond of gambling and even visited the Flower House. Such a person is a typical traitor agent.
Of course, she didn't know that the underground party's death mailbox was in the casino, otherwise, it would be possible to guess Xie Xuan's identity.
Peng Guowen became the commander-in-chief of the Second Army. Anyway, the first step of Xie Xuan's plan has been carried out smoothly. Anyway, the next step of the plan has to be carried out by other comrades.
He was also packing his luggage at Shunchang Hotel and preparing to return to Shenpu.
Ueno Naomi went to his room and asked, "Should we take the long-distance bus back to Shinpo?"
Xie Xuan said: "Ma Tian drove here. Isn't it comfortable for us to ride in the car?"
Naomi Ueno patted his arm and said coquettishly, "No, I want to go back in the car with you."
During this time in Dongtai, her nerves were very tense every day.
Anyway, on the way to Dongtai, she leaned on Xie Xuan's shoulder, feeling very comfortable and at ease.
During this journey, she was the most relaxed and at peace.
As a spy, I am afraid that it will be difficult for me to have such an opportunity again in the future.
Xie Xuan said: "I'll make arrangements."
Ueno Naomi seemed to have guessed Xie Xuan's thoughts, and immediately said: "The arrangement can be made, but you cannot arrange for your subordinates to ride in the same car with us."
Xie Xuan said helplessly: "Can we let them follow us from a distance?"
Xie Xuan's trip to Dongtai was fruitful this time. Not only did the mountain city commend him, but he also received dozens of small yellow croakers from Hua Zhongyang.
When Hua Zhongyang was assassinated, Ma Tian's people took control of the Honglan Villa.
After Hua Zhongyang died, Ma Tian took the opportunity to search the Honglan Villa.
Hua Zhongyang's belongings were packed into four large boxes. With Xie Xuan's character, everyone who came to Dongtai would make a small fortune.
