More than a thousand Japanese and puppet troops who had been rushing for five hours in a row finally arrived at the riverside at the mouth of the company commander of the Imperial Army before dark.

Major General Nakamura was about to order the troops to search in a scattered manner, and a lieutenant rushed over.

"Sir, a large number of excavated traces were found on the river bank ahead, and many footprints of mules and horses!"

Nakamura was shocked and ordered: "Let's go now!"

When he reached the destination, a large area of ​​excavated river banks appeared in Nakamura's vision. His deputy walked around the area and ran over to report, "General, we are late!"

"It has not rained during this period. Judging from the traces of digging, the gold buried by the Eighth Route Army on the river bank should have been transported away three days ago. Judging from the footprints left by the mules and horses on the ground, the Eighth Route Army used at least hundreds of mules and horses to transfer the gold!"

"Can you follow these horseshoe prints to find where the Eighth Route Army has transferred the gold?" Major General Nakamura, who had a disappointed expression flashed quickly on his face, stared at the adjutant and asked with anticipation.

Nakamura shook his head and replied: "No... Horse hoof prints are only available by the river, but they will be gone if they leave the river!"

"The grass and trees are very lush now. If it is the second day after the mules and horses walk, we can still make judgments and follow them according to the slight changes in the broken trees. But now it has been too long, and all the slight changes have disappeared!"

Major General Nakamura subconsciously wanted to get angry, but in the end he still held it back.

"More than a hundred mules and horses marched, and such a big movement is impossible to be silent. Check it out immediately, everyone will go out to check it. We must find out where these Eighth Route Army have transferred the gold?"

"Whether it is the Imperial Army or the Imperial Army, as long as the information provided is true, you will be promoted to two levels, and then you will be rewarded with one thousand yuan!"

There must be brave men under heavy rewards. Major General Nakamura believes that in the face of the temptation of money and power, his subordinates will do their best to find the good news they want to know.

At this moment, he suddenly thought of the puppet army company commander who had been with him. In order to dispel his subordinates' concerns about his promise, he made a decision on the spot.

"Zhang Jun, Company Commander Zhang. Although we did not find the gold based on the information you provided, judging from the on-site situation, the information you provided was true. The Imperial Army kept its word. After returning, I would recommend you as the regiment commander to the Front Army and reward you with a thousand dollars. I hope you will continue to serve the Imperial Army in the future. The Imperial Army will definitely not treat you friends unfairly!"

"Thank you, Taijun. I am sure to be loyal to the Imperial Army and serve the Imperial Army with all my heart and strength!" The company commander of the Imperial Army, who followed Major General Nakamura, answered very flatteringly with excitement on his face.

What the Japanese unexpectedly thought was that the flattery and compliments they saw were just appearances.

The company commander of the Imperial Army was more determined than anyone else. Although he was staring at the traitor's hat, his true identity was the intelligence personnel lurking inside the Japanese and puppet troops in the Eighth Route Army.

After all the gold and oceans were transferred, in order to allow the intelligence personnel hidden within the Japanese and puppet army to further grow into senior Japanese and puppet army and provide more information with the Eighth Route Army. Huang Yu seized this opportunity very decisively and asked several intelligence personnel to tell the Japanese where the gold was hidden through various methods, gaining the favor of the Japanese, and thus promoting to a higher position!

Obviously, Huang Yu's goal has been achieved.

An information that is almost useless can be directly transferred to the position of commander of the Imperial Army!

A month later, Wang Ping has left Yan'an for almost four months. In less than a month, his wife Ouyang Antong's due date will arrive.

At ten o'clock in the evening, in Yan'an, where there were almost no electricity or nightlife, everyone except a handful of patrol troops were still in high spirits.

However, tonight is destined to be a sleepless night for many people in Yan'an City.

At twelve o'clock in the evening, a brigade of guards suddenly appeared at the quiet city gate.

The guard post and patrol team were placed around the city gate for more than a kilometer. No movement could escape the eyes of these guards.

Another hour later, dozens of people left the command headquarters and came to the city gate together, whispering something. Everyone had a smile on their faces and was in a very good mood.

You don’t need to guess that they must be waiting for someone they appeared at the city gate so late.

The commander, deputy commander, commander-in-chief, and several other leaders of the commander-in-chief went out together, and almost never appeared in the past few years.

The Chongqing intelligence personnel and Japanese and puppet military intelligence personnel around the command headquarters who monitored every move, caused a sensation. Everyone focused their attention at the small gate of Yan'an City. However, because the command headquarters guard regiment put the guard guard too far, although they guessed that a very important person would come to Yan'an soon, they could not see who it was, and could only look at a rough look from a distance!"

"So, for these people, Yan'an tonight is destined to be a sleepless night."

"Boss, when will Comrade Wang Ping arrive?" The commander surrounded by everyone seemed to be unable to wait, staring at the commander-in-chief and asked.

"The river defense force reported that they all crossed the river at 8 o'clock in the evening. At the normal marching speed, as long as nothing unexpected happens, they should be coming soon!"

"Commander, why don't you and the deputy commander go to the city gate to rest first, and I'll call you here when he arrives!"

"No!" the commander refused without hesitation.

"Comrade Wang Ping is worth waiting for him here, even if you stand here and wait for a night!"

Until this time, more than a dozen leaders of the commander-in-chief were still the only ones, including commander-in-chief, commander-in-chief, and deputy minister Li, who knew what Wang Ping had done in Peking and knew that Wang Ping brought back a huge surprise to Yan'an, and was on his way back to Yan'an at this moment.

So, as soon as the commander finished speaking, a leader next to him couldn't help asking: "Comrade Wang Ping, I heard you mention this. He seems to be just a regiment-level cadre, how can you guys wait for him here together!"

"It's definitely worth it. When you see what he brings back, you won't have such questions!" The commander did not explain, but answered very confidently.

Without saying the commander, the chief could only turn his attention to the deputy commander.

"Deputy Commander, after waiting for so long, it's time to tell us why we've been waiting here for so long!"

The deputy commander did not hide it and briefly introduced: "You must have heard of several things that happened in Peking City during this period, right?"

"I know!" the leader who had just spoken affirmed.

"In more than two months, six or seven traitors died in Peking, five of whom were notorious big traitors. In addition, several Japanese merchants died. By the way, the Japanese North China Front Command was bombarded, two major generals were killed, and a large number of auxiliary officers were killed!"

"There is one more thing!" the deputy commander interrogated.

"The Japanese North China Front Army has issued an order to request the Special High School to end the assassination of our Eighth Route Army commanders at all levels!"

"Why?" Several leaders, who were not sure of the reason, looked at the deputy commander at the same time, showing a shocked expression.

From the deputy commander's expression at this moment, they vaguely guessed in their hearts that this matter was related to Wang Ping.

However, an ordinary regiment-level cadre of the Eighth Route Army made the Japanese North China Front Army compromise and bow to the Eighth Route Army. In any aspect, it seems impossible to do it, and they dare not connect them together.
