At 8 o'clock in the evening, the Chief of Staff appeared again in the Commander-in-Chief's Office.

Compared with the day, his expression was more solemn than during the day. When he walked in, he handed the information in his hand to the commander-in-chief: "Sir, we have found out!"

"The trading location between the National Salvation Army and the Japanese was on the railway line, and it was also in the National Salvation Army's defense zone."

"Although the Chinese were negotiating with the National Salvation Army, they could cross the Japanese and puppet army blockade line and enter their defense zone with tens of millions of kilograms of food, and transport it by train. The fool could guess that the Japanese were standing behind the Chinese. I believe Zhou Cheng must know this, but they still pretended to be confused and decided to carry out this transaction, which shows that Zhou Cheng has recognized the Japanese's encouraging them!"

"If the National Salvation Army is really attracted by the Japanese, this is what it means to be a real disaster for raising a tiger."

"Although we did not deal with the National Salvation Army in the past, they were at least nominally affiliated with the war zone. They would not openly disobey the orders of the war zone, nor would they directly oppose the war zone."

"If they were incorporated by the Japanese and became the Imperial Army, they would become the minions of the Japanese."

"In the past, they did not have the support of the war zone. When they went deep into the enemy's backbone to fight the Japanese, twice the number of Japanese soldiers was not their opponents."

"If it is incorporated by the Japanese and the Japanese provide them with a steady stream of weapons, ammunition and ammunition supplies, their combat effectiveness will definitely increase exponentially."

"Once the Japanese use them to attack the war zone, we may not be the opponent if we draw two main divisions!"

The commander-in-chief's face was extremely gloomy. He didn't find his carefully planned plan and had an accident again. Moreover, this accident was particularly unfavorable to the war zone.

He felt that he was too unlucky this year, and various problems arose in the action plan for the National Salvation Army several times.

After anger, the commander-in-chief did not lose his mind and asked calmly: "Is it possible to send someone to set up an ambush in the place where they trade, create the illusion of black eating, and make both parties lose trust in the next transaction," he said.

The Chief of Staff hesitated for a while, then shook his head and replied: "It's hard!"

"Their trading location is in the National Rescue Military Defense Zone. Because the intelligence personnel lurking in the National Rescue Military Defense Zone were sorted out by the National Rescue Military once, many people were sent to the situation by them. The new intelligence network has not been formed yet, so it is difficult for us to gather all the team members involved in the operation."

"And the defense zone of the National Salvation Army is very strict. Even if we gather all the operational team members, it will be difficult for them to escape the National Salvation Army's reconnaissance troops and intelligence personnel, and quietly lurk near the trading point and standby."

Speaking of this, the Chief of Staff suddenly thought of something, his eyes lit up and replied: "Sir, I think we can wait until the transaction between the National Salvation Army and the Japanese are completed before taking action."

"The National Rescue Military Defense Zone does not have our operational team members, and the National Rescue Military is on high alert, so it is difficult for us to achieve our goal even if we force it to take action."

“The situation in the Japanese occupied areas is exactly the opposite.”

"Because they had just lost a lot of troops in the battle to encircle and suppress the Independent Regiment of the Eighth Route Army, they had to assemble heavy troops to block the National Salvation Army, resulting in almost no mobile troops being arranged within at least fifty kilometers behind the blockade line."

"If the Japanese and puppet troops want to use trains to send food into the national defense zone, they must pass through this military vacuum zone."

"After the transaction between the National Salvation Army and the Japanese is completed, the train carrying grain will definitely pass through this area again, bringing the ocean obtained from selling grain back to seek the second batch of grain."

"If our operation team members pretend to be a national rescue army and blow up the train and snatch the Japanese off the ocean that the Japanese have not yet heated up, the Japanese offenders who suffer losses will definitely think that the National Saving Army will be rude and want food, but they don't want to give the ocean."

"The trust between them will definitely be gone at once. Not only will the next trade be ruined, but the Japanese will also feel like they will be able to continue to deal with it, and they will take revenge for their teeth."

"For us, we can not only continue to reap the benefits of the fisherman in their fight, but also get back tens of thousands of oceans of funds."

"For the National Salvation Army, with the first batch of food sold to them by the Japanese, their food shortage crisis will ease and they will definitely not bow to the Japanese again."

At the Yangquan Command of the National Salvation Army, Tang Yufeng and Zheng Yunshan all stood in front of Zhou Cheng with serious expressions.

Since the regiment commander had made the decision to trade with the Japanese, the division headquarters gave the regiment commander the power to act cheaply. As the deputy of the National Salvation Army, the two could only cooperate with each other with all their strength.

"Captain, according to your order, I have leaked the news that we are going to trade with the Japanese to the intelligence personnel lurking in our defense zone in the war zone. As expected, this information is now on the desk of Chief Yan of the war zone!" Zheng Yunshan reported seriously and was incomprehensible.

Zhou Cheng was very satisfied with the order: "This is just the first step."

"The second task of the intelligence department is to keep a close eye on the intelligence personnel lurking in our defense zone and surrounding areas. No matter what the wind or any news is heard, they must report it to me as soon as possible."

Tang Yufeng stood beside him. Until now, he had not figured out Zhou Cheng’s specific plan.

When Tang Yufeng heard that Zhou Cheng gave Zheng Yunshan another inexplicable task, he couldn't help it and asked in a hurry before Zheng Yunshan received the order.

"Captain, I still can't understand, what is the purpose of your labor-intensive operation?"

"Of course, let the war zone participate too!" Zhou Cheng blurted out.

Seeing that although Zheng Yunshan unconditionally executed his order, he seemed to have not understood the purpose of his operation. He frowned like Tang Yufeng, Zhou Cheng immediately explained.

"Didn't the war zone always want to see us fighting with the Japanese, destroy us with the Japanese, and use our National Rescue Army to consume a large amount of troops from the Shanxi garrison, and wait by the way to reap the benefits of the fishermen."

"I just don't let them go."

"The war zone wanted to see us fight with the Japanese and puppet troops, but I just showed them the way I was so attracted by the Japanese and puppet troops. What do you think the war zone would think?"

Tang Yufeng blurted out: "It goes without saying that he will definitely try his best to destroy the transaction between us and the Japanese and puppet troops, so that we can continue to fight with the Japanese and puppet troops."

"The more intense we fight the Japanese and puppet troops, the greater the casualties on both sides will be, and the happier the war zone will be."

Zheng Yunshan said, "The war zone definitely doesn't want to see us being swept by the Japanese."

"If our relationship with the Japanese and puppet troops maintains the status quo, in order to prevent us from further expanding the occupied areas, the Japanese and puppet troops have to draw a large number of troops to surround us."

"The Japanese garrisons in Shanxi have limited troops. If they want to draw enough troops to surround us, they must demolish the east wall and repair the west wall. With more troops blocking us, the pressure on the war zone on the front battlefield will be much less."

"If we were recruited by the Japanese, then all the troops surrounded by the Japanese might be transferred to the frontal battlefield to attack the war zone."

"After we become the Imperial Army, the Japanese will definitely not support us in vain."

"They will probably send us to the battlefield and assist their troops in attacking the war zone together. The war zone will face a lot of pressure, and maybe they will not be able to withstand the joint attack between us and the Japanese and puppet troops."

Zhou Cheng followed Zheng Yunshan's analysis and answered: "You are all right. The war zone does not want to see us dealing with the Japanese and puppet troops, nor does it want to see us being attracted by the Japanese and puppet troops."

"Then they will definitely try every means to destroy the transaction after they receive the news that I asked Lao Zheng to spread."

"If we can get into the war zone to destroy this transaction plan, I will be confident that I can take advantage of the situation and let the Japanese make a waste of money. Not only will they not get any benefits, but they will also lose more than 20 million kilograms of food in vain."

"More importantly, we can further intensify the conflict between the war zone and the Japanese and puppet troops through the next actions, and push all the responsibility to the war zone, so that the Japanese will continue to feel that we can be attracted and incorporated by them."

Two days later, the day before the troops traded with the Japanese and puppet troops, the intelligence personnel lurking near the National Salvation Army Defense Zone in the war zone finally moved.

As soon as Zheng Yunshan received the news, he found Zhou Cheng: "The commander of the regiment, the war zone wants to ambush the Japanese soldiers on the edge of our defense zone to transport food to us."

"In order to successfully attack, they gathered more than fifty people and even installed several light machine guns."

"And they also thought of a way to frame it, and prepared a large number of military uniforms for the national rescue army, which was used when preparing for operations, and finally made the Japanese and puppet troops feel that we were the culprits of the ambush train!"

Zhou Cheng seemed to have thought of this result a long time ago. After listening to Zheng Yunshan’s report, his face was calm and his face did not change at all.

He asked in response to Zheng Zuo's indignant gaze: "Did the Japanese react?"

Zheng Yunshan shook his head: "The Japanese probably haven't noticed the operations in the war zone yet!"

"In order to deal with two independent regiments and block our National Salvation Army, the Japanese almost drained all the mobile troops fifty kilometers behind the blockade line."

"In addition, in order to prevent us from robbing food from their occupied areas, the Japanese moved the traitors and landlords behind the blockade line, and no one was used as a spy for them. The area where the war zone intelligence personnel were active almost became a vacuum area for the defense of the Japanese and puppet troops."

"I don't know!" After hearing this, Zhou Cheng's smile became stronger.

Tang Yufeng's reaction was exactly the opposite. The frown that was already tightened became deeper and deeper.

Looking at Zhou Cheng, I really couldn't understand why he was so happy?

Zhou Cheng didn't make him confused for too long. A few seconds later, he suddenly asked the two people: "Do you think the war zone gathered so many troops to ambush the train that transported food or have other purposes?"

Tang Yufeng blurted out: "The war zone doesn't want us to trade with the Japanese. It must be an ambushing the train that transports grain, and destroying the grain before both of us trade!"

Zheng Yunshan nodded immediately and agreed: "I also think they plan to ambush the train that transports food, destroy the food, so that we can't trade with the Japanese."

After hearing this, Zhou Cheng shook his head and did not respond directly to the two people's answers. Instead, he continued to ask: "If they really plan to ambush the Japanese train to transport grain, then why are they preparing so many military uniforms for the National Saving Army?"

"Framed?" This time it was Zheng Yunshan's turn to blurt out.

Although Tang Yufeng did not speak, he showed a very agreeable expression on his face.
