Hong Linfeng didn't move, chased after Li Hao and asked, "Then what should we do about the fact that our transport troops were attacked by the enemy!" ”

"Several recruits have just joined our Eighth Route Army, and they died without even wearing the uniforms of the Eighth Route Army, if the news spreads, some people will definitely say that our Eighth Route Army cares about human life, and even recruits can't protect it!"

"When the time comes, it will be very difficult for us to recruit new recruits!"

Li Hao shook his head and replied: "There is no target, we don't even know the specific identity of the sneak attackers, not to mention revenge, it is impossible to find them at the very least!" ”

"Tell the two platoon commanders immediately that when they send recruits and food to Hongquan Village next, at least one squad of troops will be dispatched to escort them!"

"As for those recruits who sacrificed, they were all treated as martyrs who died on the battlefield. It was openly said that they were attacked by the Japanese army and died when they fought against the Japanese army again! ”

Hong Linfeng continued to shout: "What about those sneak attackers? Just let them die like this! ”

Li Hao replied with a serious face: "Don't worry, these people will have to pay the price for their actions sooner or later!" ”

"Their heads are just temporarily stored on their shoulders, and we'll take them away when the time comes!"

"Eat the rice one bite at a time, and do things one by one!"

"The place where the convoy was attacked is too far away from here, there are many villages there, and the terrain is unfamiliar, so we can't reach it!"

"We must first establish a base area and an intelligence network, and after covering that area, we can find them through open investigation and covert visits, and then kill them to prevent future troubles!"

Hong Linfeng still had a trace of unwillingness on his face: "Then when will we establish a base area!" ”

Li Hao replied with a wry smile: "Establishing a base area is not about fighting devils, the troops just pull out and fire at the little devils!" ”

"The first thing we need is people, cadres with rich local work experience!"

"Looking at our independent company, they are all big and rough in the war, and there is not a single cadre with local work experience, how can we set up a base area!"

"There is no one, even if the conditions for us to form a base area are ripe, we don't have any clue!"

"Wait a little longer, after we have passed this difficult situation in front of us, we will send a telegram to the military sub-district, asking the commander to send us two cadres over!"

At ten o'clock in the evening, Hongquan Village, which had been lively all day, was completely quiet.

In the village under the cover of night, there was no light at all.

The three squad leaders of the guard platoon, plus Xiao Yuan, Hong Linfeng, and Li Hao, each brought two soldiers, and the soldiers entered the village in six ways.

"Papapa~"

As soon as there was a knock on the door, a middle-aged man's complaint came from the room.

"Who, knock on the door so late to keep people from sleeping!"

After opening the door and seeing Li Hao, the middle-aged man who knew Li Hao's identity was stunned for several seconds before reacting.

While letting Li Hao into the house, he said apologetically: "It's a comrade of the Eighth Route Army!" Hello, come inside, it's cold outside...... I don't know what's going on with you guys coming here so late. If there is anything to find the old man, you can tell me. I don't have anything else, I still have a lot of strength! ”

Li Hao hurriedly replied: "Don't be polite, fellow, I came here so late to find out something about you!" ”

"There is no farm work to do now, and you should be like the villagers, who often wander around the village. I would like you to recall, have there been any suspicious circumstances in the village these days? ”

"For example, what kind of suspicious person, who in the village usually goes out and wanders around, but rarely comes out these days!"

"Or whose house has been cooking for a lot longer than usual these days, closing the door every day and not letting everyone go to the door!"

The middle-aged man frowned and thought for a minute, then shook his head and replied, "It doesn't seem to be anything strange!" ”

"Some of the older brothers I know meet every day, and I don't feel any different from usual!"

Speaking of this, the middle-aged man seemed to have thought of something, and his brows were obviously furrowed!

"I remember, there's one thing I don't know if counts as suspicious as you said."

"The old Zhou family surnamed Zhou in the east of the village suddenly fell ill a few days ago, and I didn't see him go out for several days, and the door was closed every day!"

"He also went this afternoon when you gathered the big guys, but he didn't look sick at all, but was very happy, as if he had encountered something very good!"

Li Hao raised his eyebrows, and a fine light flashed in his eyes.

Then he stared at the other party and asked, "Can you tell me about this old Zhou, how is he usually a person!" ”

"Not how?" The middle-aged man hesitated and replied.

"His character is not very good, he has no children, no daughter-in-law, he is single, and he likes to go to the town to gamble, and no one in the village likes to deal with him!"

"Even if they knew he was sick, no one would go to see him!"

Independent Company Headquarters, when Li Hao brought people back, the other five people had already returned.

"Let's talk about the results of my unannounced visit just now!" Li Hao asked directly.

Hong Linfeng shook his head and replied: "I haven't gained anything here!" There have been no suspicious people coming and going in the village these days! ”

"I don't get anything here!" Xiao Yuan shook his head and replied.

The first squad leader and the second squad leader shook their heads successively to indicate that they had no gain.

Just when Li Hao thought that everyone was going to return empty-handed, He Wenlin, the third squad leader, replied unexpectedly: "Company commander, I secretly visited a message, I don't know if it's useful!" ”

"Say!" A glimmer of hope ignited on Li Hao's face!

He Wenlin hurriedly replied: "The Zhou family in the east of the village is a little strange these days, and they don't come out!" ”

"And he's a ruffian in the village, and he's a gambler. If there is really someone in the village who is guilty, he must be more likely than the others! ”

"I also learned that this surnamed Zhou usually has a lot of money and earns money by doing odd jobs for others! How could he afford that little salary, and he often went to the town to gamble? ”

"I think there's something wrong with this!"

"In addition to doing odd jobs to earn money, this surnamed Zhou must have other income that we don't know about!"

"I can't figure out that this income is the reward he gives to the little devil as an internal response, and the little devil gives him!"

"Not bad!" Li Hao replied with satisfaction.

Looking at He Wenlin's gaze, there was also more appreciation!

Although it is not clear how He Wenlin obtained this information, compared to Xiao Yuan and others, he definitely has more potential to engage in intelligence than others.

After taking a deep breath, he replied: "Your suspicions are the same as mine, and I also think there is something wrong with this surnamed Zhou!" ”

Xiao Yuan immediately shouted: "Company commander, I'll bring someone to arrest him back now!" ”

"What about the evidence?" Li Hao retorted without hesitation?

"Is it possible to arrest someone based on our understanding and inference, what if we make a mistake, and what if he grits his teeth and refuses to admit it?"

"Also, the enemy who sneaked up on us didn't die and ran away, even if there was a problem with this surnamed Zhou, it was an internal response, it was useless to catch him, kill him to avenge the sacrificed soldiers, and vent his anger!"

"Don't be impatient, now that we know he has a problem, the next thing we need to do is to put a long line to catch a big fish."

"Through him, find out more traitors who are lurking around us!"
