The oil lamp in the cave dwelling was a little dim. A little soldier approached lightly and picked up a cotton thread. The light suddenly became brighter.
"Kid, what time is it now?" Comrade 'Farmer' looked up at the little soldier and asked with a smile.
"Report to the commander." The little soldier took out his pocket watch, "It's three o'clock at night."
After saying that, he wiped the pocket watch with his sleeve and put it back on his body carefully.
This pocket watch was specially given to him by the chief to keep in order to keep track of the time.
At this moment, the sound of walking came from outside the cave.
The little soldier swung his belt alertly and nimbly, and walked out with a spear in both hands, but he almost collided with Comrade Lu Wenhua who came in.
"Hey, you, kid, be careful." Lu Wenhua avoided, knocked the little soldier on the head, and shouted.
The little soldier smiled sheepishly, opened the door curtain and went out.
"This kid," Lu Wenhua said, "is not as clever as little Ouyang."
As soon as the words came out, Lu Wenhua's heart skipped a beat and he patted his mouth.
Looking up, I saw that Comrade ‘Farmer’ looked not very good:
Little Ouyang died a month ago.
"Comrade Wenhua, what happened to come to me so late?" Comrade "Farmer" knew that Comrade Lu Wenhua was unintentional, so he took the initiative to ask.
"The caller had a very long message. I was still sending it when I came." Lu Wenhua lowered his voice and said with a serious expression.
He didn't know the code name of the comrade opposite the radio station, let alone whether he was a man or a woman, or how old he was. He only knew that he was an extremely important comrade directly led by Comrade "Xiangwu" and "Farmer".
At the same time, the comrades in the telegraph department paid special attention to this comrade's transmission fingerings. As soon as someone sent a message, they knew it was this comrade.
Comrade "Farmer" also had a serious expression, so he naturally knew who "that" Comrade Lu Wenhua was talking about.
Comrade Huo Miao sent a long telegram. Did an extremely important emergency occur?
Comrade 'Farmer' didn't dare to neglect. He closed the diary in his hand and put it directly into his pocket. He picked up the pen on the table and put it in his pocket. He patted his butt and said, "I'll go and take a look with you."
About half an hour later, Comrade "Farmer" returned to his cave dwelling and translated the long telegram.
Holding the telegram manuscript in both hands, Comrade "Farmer" read it very seriously.
It was not an urgent sudden incident. After confirming this first, Comrade "Farmer" breathed a sigh of relief.
However, as the reading progressed, Comrade 'Farmer''s expression became more and more serious, and he captured important information from such a long telegram:
No wonder Comrade Huo Miao uncharacteristically sent out such a long message of non-urgent information. This outdated military analysis information that was no longer timely and timely was regarded as extremely important in the eyes of Comrade "Farmer".
"Kid, take the cigarettes in my cabinet." Comrade 'Farmer' shouted towards the door, "Let's go out."
"Chief, how many bags do you want to take?" the little soldier asked.
"Two packs." Comrade 'Farmer' said, then gritted his teeth and said, "Take another pack."
He didn't have many cigarettes left, only four packs of cigarettes left. These were the cigarettes that Comrade "Huo Miao" had brought to him before, Comrade Topeng and Ou. He had never been willing to smoke more.
I heard that when the teacher comrade was in the Soviet area, he liked the brand of cigarettes that Comrade Huo Miao asked Comrade Xiang Wu to bring him. Of course, Cheng Qianfan was not Huo Miao at that time.
However, many of the cigarettes brought by Comrade Peng Yuou last time fell into the hands of comrade teachers. After taking the first puff, comrade teachers said "I have smoked this cigarette before"
.'
"Disturbing one's dreams." The teacher comrade hadn't rested yet. In order to avoid being criticized by his comrades, he yawned and pretended to be angry at first. Then when he saw the little soldier take out three packs of cigarettes from his pocket, a smile immediately appeared on his face and he said directly
He grabbed them all and said, "This is pretty much it."
Naturally, all this could not be hidden from Comrade ‘Farmer’’s eyes, and he could only smile and shake his head.
…
After receiving the telegram handed over by Comrade 'Farmer', Comrade Teacher read it carefully.
"The Japanese fought hard to attack Wuhan." Comrade the teacher said, his words contained contempt for the enemy and confidence that he had already seen through everything.
Then, after putting down the message, the comrade teacher took a puff of cigarette and said with a serious expression, "The Japanese are going to attack our Eighth Route Army."
From September last year, when our red armed forces went to the anti-Japanese front line, to the end of the Wuhan battle yesterday, the Eighth Route Army has opened up four anti-Japanese base areas in Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei, Shanxi-Hebei-Shandong-Henan, Shanxi-Suiyuan, and Shandong.
With the advancement and development of our army, the Japanese army has begun to initially pay attention to the Eighth Route Army, focusing on North China, and has launched many "security wars".
In fact, unlike the situation where large-scale battles occur once or twice a year on the frontal battlefield, the battlefield behind enemy lines is carried out all the time, and the frequency of battles is far higher than that on the frontal battlefield.
In fact, we have just learned that when the Japanese base camp formulated the operational plan to attack Wuhan in April this year, it considered using the North China Front Army to move south from the Pinghan-Han Line and attack Wuhan together with the Eleventh Army and other units from the north, south, and middle routes.
At that time, due to the poor "public security" in North China, the strength of the North China Front Army was suddenly stretched thin, and the combat plan was finally abandoned.
The telegram from Huo Miao corroborated this information, or it can be said that the information from Huo Miao further improved some of the headquarters' guesses and judgments.
This is because in this telegram, Comrade Huo Miao listed some examples.
The deputy Masanobu Fusuda of the Third Independent Brigade of the North China Front's 2nd Independent Mixed Brigade was a junior high school student of Imamura Hyoutaro. The North China Front's 2nd Mixed Brigade to which he belonged was stationed in Hebei.
In his letter to Imamura Hyōtaro, Vice Masanobu Tsukuda said that his Third Battalion fought nearly forty times in nine months, and that the Eighth Route Army mainly exploited every opportunity, 'making everyone very distressed'.
“Security in the occupied areas has deteriorated. Every day we hear news of railways being bombed, and we even hear that even Peiping is under threat.
In particular, the Red Party's army used the mountainous areas of Shanxi Province as its base, moved to the mountainous areas of Shandong Province between the Pinghan-Han Line and the Jinpu Line, and then expanded its organization to the Jidong region.
They are very cunning and disrupt public order through the gaps in the imperial army’s defense, which is annoying to death.”
The long telegram of "Flame" almost reproduces the original words of the letter written by this middle-level Japanese army officer, almost word for word.
Comrade "Farmer" admires Comrade "Teacher" very much. He is a special agent and can quickly find key information from this telegram and from the numerous intelligences he has come into contact with. This is not surprising.
However, the teacher comrades only read the telegram from Huo Miao and immediately captured the key information behind the telegram.
This long telegram from ‘Huo Miao’ is of great value, and it contains at least three extremely important pieces of information:
First, the ambivalence within the Japanese cabinet about the attack on Wuhan shows that as the war expands, Japan is also unable to bear it.
How can little Japan digest the snake swallowing the elephant?
Secondly, the Japanese army is constantly changing and adjusting its plans for the Wuhan war, especially the rejection of the first plan. This corroborates the intelligence we obtained from other channels. It also shows that the activities of our Eighth Route Army armed forces behind enemy lines have a negative impact on the enemy.
This is the result of our red armed forces’ anti-Japanese victory.
Thirdly, the letters written by the middle-level officers of the Japanese army showed "irritability" and "uneasiness" towards our Eighth Route Army. This is a signal. As this irritability expands, the Japanese army is bound to pay more and more attention to and pay attention to our Eighth Route Army's actions.
The threat posed to them behind enemy lines.
Our Eighth Route Army is not strong, but it is obvious that the Japanese army has felt the pressure.
"The Battle of Wuhan is likely to be the last large-scale invasion of China launched by the Japanese," said comrade the instructor.
He looked at Comrade ‘Farmer’ and said, “Comrades in North China please pay close attention to the movements of the Japanese troops.”
After flicking the ashes from his cigarette, the comrade teacher continued, "Comrades, life will not be easy this autumn."
Comrade "Farmer" sorted out his thoughts and began to report to the teacher comrades on the work of the North China comrades.
The teacher comrades listened very carefully and asked some questions from time to time.
"Comrades have worked hard!" said the teacher comrade. He took a puff of his cigarette and happened to see the cigarette butt in his hand. "Thank you kid for me and tell him to take care of himself."
…
The next day.
Rich Hotel.
This is not the first time Cheng Qianfan has met Shimizu Dongzo. He had met Shimizu Dongzo before when he went to visit Hyōtaro Imamura. However, the two had no verbal communication and could only be said to have "knew each other" from a distance.
Qingshui Dongsan wears gold-rimmed glasses, and her hair is shiny and shiny. It seems that she has applied a lot of hair wax, and a mosquito might slide down on it.
Wearing a crisp suit and tie, he also had a tie clip on his tie.
"Mr. Qingshui." Cheng Qianfan bowed respectfully.
"Miyazaki-kun, please sit down."
Cheng Qianfan did not show any surprise that Shimizu Dongzo knew about his "Japanese identity". Since Shimizu Dongzo sent him an invitation to meet with him through Imamura Hyoutaro, this already shows that Shimizu Dongzo knew about him.
The 'real' identity is Japanese Kentaro Miyazaki.
The two chatted for a while.
"Mr. Shimizu, I wonder if there is anything that Miyazaki can do for you?" Cheng Qianfan asked.
"In two days, I plan to introduce someone to Deputy Chief Inspector Cheng Qianfan," Qingshui Dongsan said.
Cheng Qianfan looked at the other party with a look of thought. Shimizu Dongsan was talking about introducing someone to get to know Deputy Chief Inspector Cheng Qianfan, not the Japanese agent Kentaro Miyazaki.
"Excuse me sir, is that person a Chinese?" Cheng Qianfan asked.
"As expected, he is Imamura-kun's student. He is very smart and reacts very quickly." Tozo Shimizu smiled, stroking his hands and said, "Miyazaki-kun guessed it right, he is a Chinese."
"Mr. Qingshui, I don't know if you know me." Cheng Qianfan looked embarrassed, "Although I am pretending to be Cheng Qianfan from China, in fact I don't like Chinese people."
"Miyazaki-kun, I want to introduce someone to Cheng Qianfan." Shimizu Dongsan's expression became serious, "Please realize this, or in other words, please understand that this is not a negotiation, it is entrusted to you by the empire.
Task."
"Mr. Shimizu, I am naturally willing to do anything for the empire. However, please forgive me, I am not a subordinate of Mr. Shimizu. If you want to give me orders, please go through the Super High School Section Chief Sanbenjiro, or my
Teacher..." Cheng Qianfan's extremely fast mouth stopped, and he saw Qingshui Dongsan take out a document.
This is a document personally signed by Eiichi Iwai. To be precise, it is the appointment document appointing Tozo Shimizu as the director of the second room of the Iwai Mansion.
"Miyazaki-kun, I have asked Mr. Iwai for instructions. Mr. Iwai ordered you to follow my arrangements." Shimizu Tozo said.
"Chief Shimizu, Kentaro Miyazaki is willing to obey all your orders without reservation." Cheng Qianfan stood up and said with a serious expression and a hint of respect.
"Very good, Miyazaki-kun." Shimizu Dongsan nodded slightly, "Please sit down."
He had gotten to know Kentaro Miyazaki with Hyoutaro Imamura before. Among them, Hyoutaro Imamura said, "Kentaro is a passionate young man who is extremely loyal to the empire and to His Majesty the Emperor. No matter what his previous attitude towards you, as long as he
He is sure that you are qualified to give him orders, and he will complete the tasks you give him well."
Shimizu Tozo still remembers what Hyōtaro Imamura said at that time: Please be kind to an imperial-blooded young man who is loyal and brave to the empire and to His Majesty the Emperor!
…
"Chief, who is this Chinese person you want to introduce to me?" Cheng Qianfan asked.
"They are Chinese." Shimizu Dongsan said seriously, "Miyazaki-kun, I know you don't like Chinese, but the Chinese you want to contact is valuable to the empire."
He looked at Cheng Qianfan and said, "You need to restrain your inner hatred for the Chinese. Only in this way can you complete the work I have assigned you and meet my requirements."
"What is the room chief's request?" Cheng Qianfan asked without directly stating his position.
"My request is very simple - be friends with this person." Qingmizu Dongsan said, "It is best to truly win this person's friendship."
"I'll try my best." Cheng Qianfan looked embarrassed, "You know, I am against the Chinese people..."
"They are Chinese!" Qingshui Dongsan's tone became stern, "You must cover up your contempt for the Chinese in your bones, do you understand?"
"Hai." Cheng Qianfan stood up and bowed.
"Remember, your identity is Chinese Cheng Qianfan. You are both Chinese who are willing to serve the empire. A common identity is helpful for you to gain the friendship of the other party." After a moment, Qingshui Dongsan continued,
"However, he is a highly cautious and suspicious guy, so you have to be prepared."
"Hai." Cheng Qianfan said, and then he showed curiosity, "Chief, who is this person?"

I suddenly felt very uncomfortable and felt much better after vomiting it out. The update was a little affected, so I hope everyone can forgive me.
