Li Wen was the first to react: "Captain, what you mean is that we first use the method of moving ants to move the gold and ocean to this mountain..."
"We have ninety team members left. One person controls three mules and horses. Each mule and horse carries more than two hundred kilograms of stuff. It only takes three trips to deliver all the stuff to this mountain!"
"Judging from the map, the straight-line distance from here to the mountains is less than 200 kilometers. If you take a small road or a mountain road, it is 250 kilometers to the sky, and you can go back and forth in ten days~"
"No, it doesn't take ten days, eight days is enough!"
"This is one of our base areas, and the base area extends for fifty attacks toward Beiping. As long as we send things to the base area, we can ask the base area troops to help us transport them. However, this requires help from Yan'an to coordinate!"
"It takes eight days to go back and forth by day and night. It will take exactly twenty days for the third batch of gold and ocean to be delivered here. I will definitely make it in time!"
Wang Ping shook his head and replied: "The people in that base area can't use it. When we enter the base area, we can't even disturb them!"
"Why?" Li Wen couldn't help but ask.
"I know that Yan'an has decided to use ant moving methods to transport these things back to the base area, but why not directly recruit people from the base area, instead of recruiting people from Yan'an for a month and trekking here?"
Li Wen's brows immediately wrinkled. After thinking for a long time, he shook his head and replied: "I don't know~ Captain, is there some secret here?"
"Of course!" Wang Ping affirmed.
"A mule and horse transports more than two hundred kilograms of things. Even if these two hundred kilograms are an ocean, it is still four to five thousand yuan. No matter where it is, it is enough for a family to live carefree for a lifetime. You can guarantee that the base area will be transferred
Our cadres and soldiers have no selfish motives!”
"Also, no one can guarantee that there will be no intelligence agents brought in by the Japs in the base area. If some Japanese and puppet agents are brought in, or let them know about the transportation, we will not lose hundreds of kilograms or thousands of dollars in the end."
Not an ocean, but hundreds of thousands, even millions!”
Li Wen replied with a look of realization on his face: "I understand, Yan'an doesn't want too many people to participate in this operation, so it should try to keep it secret!"
"So, only our own people can participate in this matter. Others, even our comrades, cannot be allowed to participate!" Wang Ping answered decisively.
An expression of worry immediately appeared on Li Wen's face: "In this case, I'm worried that there won't be enough time!"
"The troops have all gone to transport things. There must be no one to continue to lead the Japanese by the nose and attract their attention to other places!"
Wang Ping answered confidently: "Then increase the number of mules and horses. One person can control five mules and horses. But in this case, the troops cannot be too scattered. Taking combat units as units, each combat unit can control forty to fifty horses.
Using mules, horses, and small roads, they avoided all the Japanese and puppet army stations and checkpoints that they might encounter along the way. They spent eight days traveling day and night to transport the things into the mountains. Then they took five days to return and collect the remaining items for the second time.
Transport all the things away. In this case, the gold we hide outside the city will only need to stay for half a month at most!"
"However, there is a problem. We need a large number of mules and horses, at least 350. It would be best if we can get 400!"
"Mules and horses are not a problem~" Huang Yu, who had done intelligence work in Peiping, immediately said.
"The people around Peiping are relatively wealthy, and many people have mules and horses at home. As long as we can afford the money, we can collect a sufficient number of mules and horses in two days at most!"
"Then let's do it!" Wang Ping made a decisive decision.
Then he ordered: "Huang Yu, you are responsible for collecting and purchasing mules and horses, Li Wen, you are responsible for planning our action route, and by the way, directing the action team to draw the attention of the Japanese and puppet search troops to other places!"
"I will draft a telegram and send it to Yan'an now!"
Five to six thousand Japanese puppet troops have been searching outside Peiping City for half a month, but they still have not found a piece of the ocean that was robbed from the bank.
Major General Nakamura, who was in charge of the entire operation, had been staring at the map since he got up in the morning, trying to confirm which areas he had not yet searched.
"Sir, the front army headquarters just called again to inquire about our close combat. The peripheral blockade troops have not discovered that the Eighth Route Army has transported this batch of finances out of our search range so far. The headquarters requires us to hurry up!"
"How to find it? We have turned the outside of Peiping City upside down. We have not even spared every cellar in the people's homes. We only need to dig three feet into the ground, but we still haven't found it. How can we hurry up!" Major General Nakamura also said:
He was full of anger. During this period, he lived and slept with the troops. He followed the troops wherever they went. He felt more grievances than anyone else!
The deputy stood in front of him, his head lowered, not knowing how to answer.
At this moment, a Japanese lieutenant suddenly broke in.
"Sir, there is a company commander of the Imperial Association Army outside who said he has something to report, about that batch of gold and the ocean!"
"Nani?" Major General Nakamura frowned, and then he realized what he was doing and ordered in a hurry: "Then why are you still standing there? Let him in immediately!"
"Hello, Taijun!" The company commander of the Imperial Association Army walked into the tent and said with a flattering look on his face.
In order to find the finances, Major General Nakamura also worked hard and directly promised: "As long as the information you provide is true and helps the Imperial Army find the gold, I will definitely recommend you as the commander of the Imperial Association Army, and then apply to the Front Army Headquarters.
I’ll reward you with a thousand yuan!”
"Please rest assured, Taijun, what I said about my humble position is all true. I will never deceive you Taijun!" the company commander of the Imperial Association Army immediately replied.
"When I was assisting the imperial army in searching during the day today, I heard from the common people that they found deep ruts by the river south of East Village. Because there is a section of mountain road there that is often overflowed by mountains and rivers and is very muddy for several days.
There will be no more rut marks from now on!”
The deputy next to him quickly found this location on the map: "General, it's right here!"
"No~" Major General Nakamura shook his head and replied.
"I remember we searched here half a month ago. There are only a few hills, a small river, and only one village nearby. We searched them all, but we didn't find what we were looking for at all."
"Rut marks, and they appeared by the river!" The deputy next to him did not answer Major General Nakamura's words, but stared at the company commander of the Imperial Alliance Army and asked.
"Yes Taijun, he disappeared after a few days, and few people go to the river recently, so few people should have seen him!" the company commander of the Imperial Alliance Army immediately replied.
"General, I have a very bold idea!" the deputy immediately looked at Major General Nakamura and said.
"There are deep ruts along the river. The Eighth Route Army must have brought the gold to the river. You just mentioned digging three feet into the ground. Is there a possibility that the Eighth Route Army buried the gold by the river!"
"It's really possible..." Major General Nakamura replied thoughtfully.
Then he ordered: "The troops will assemble immediately, we will go to the East Village now!"
