The road ambush that took place outside Longzhou City did not last long, and by the time the Japanese troops stationed in Zongzuo learned the news, it was already completely dark. The total annihilation of an infantry brigade undoubtedly shocked the infantry brigade that captured Zongzuo.

After entering Gui Province, the Japanese army also began to realize the terrain on this side, which made it easier for the troops to be ambushed. The problem is that according to the intelligence controlled by the Japanese army in the early stage, at this moment, in addition to Zongzuo City, there is only one security regiment in Longzhou City.

Originally, in the eyes of the commander of the infantry brigade, even if the infantry brigade sent could not capture Longzhou City, it could put a lot of pressure on the Longzhou Security Regiment. Unexpectedly, this infantry brigade didn't even see the city wall of Longzhou, and it was completely annihilated on the road outside the city.

After receiving the information provided by the spy officers, the commander of the infantry brigade was very confused and said: "Baga! Find out who ambushed our infantry brigade? Could it be that in the territory of Zongzuo, there are still troops that we have not yet discovered? ”

"Your Excellency, Brigade Commander, according to the telegram sent back by the forward troops, our infantry brigade should have been hit by a road bomb. On the road where the battle was engaged, several bombed earth craters were found, which were probably the work of the ambushed Chinese army. ”

Facing the report of his subordinates, the brigade commander frowned and said: "Even if the infantry brigade is ambushed, with our ability, how can we not even be able to break through to a single soldier?" Where are the troops who ambushed them?

Immediately instructed the spy personnel in Longzhou to closely investigate the situation in Longzhou City. In addition, report the situation to the special high class, and be sure to find out the enemies who may be hiding, and then surround them! ”

"Hey!"

After successfully occupying Zongzuo City, the Japanese army had cut off the connection between Longzhou and Nanning. If the transfer from this side of the road is abandoned, the materials that were gathered in Longzhou City earlier cannot be transported to other places, so they can only choose to bury them on the spot.

For the infantry brigade in charge of the war in Zongzuo, in addition to the task of eliminating the local defenders, it is also the task of the infantry brigade to capture the materials gathered in Longzhou City. Before that, they asked themselves that they had everything under control.

Just when the infantry brigade began to contact the spy personnel lurking in Longzhou, the officer in charge of intelligence liaison said in distress: "What about it? Still can't get in touch? Baga, what happened in Longzhou City? ”

"Shao Zuo, according to our previous agreement, they should report to us about the situation in Longzhou at this time. It's been more than an hour since our appointment, and I'm worried that something might happen to them! ”

"Yaga! No way! If the Chinese army really has access to our intelligence station, why can we still contact us when we attacked Zongzuo City earlier? Wait, keep calling! Send someone again and rush to Longzhou overnight to inquire about intelligence! ”

"Hey!"

When the intelligence officer, who was operating with the infantry brigade, was in a hurry to contact the hidden spies. In the prison located in Longzhou City, a drama is being staged to interrogate spy personnel.

Looking at the spy who was executed, Liu Shixing said with a calm expression: "Don't you feel shocked?" Do you think that if you don't open your mouth, we can't do anything about you? In fact, we don't need any evidence at all.

I didn't move you before, and I didn't want to alarm you. I know, you should be wondering by now, who am I? Unfortunately, I won't tell you who I am. So if you don't confess, you all have to die! ”

"Sir, are you mistaken? We are really innocent, we have been opening a store in Longzhou City for many years, and many people in the city know us! Sir, I was so wronged! I really don't know anything! ”

Listening to the confession of the inmates, Liu Shixing said with a smile: "Until this time, you are still denying it. Truly! Your shop has been operating in Longzhou for many years, and you are a local person.

I even know that you had a good relationship with the security corps and the county government officials earlier. But you should know that I can't get you here without evidence. Your radio station is very hidden, but it is still being found by my people.

If you are not a spy of the Japanese army, why do you have a Japanese codebook? Why would a businessman in the grain business build a secret room under the warehouse to store radio stations? How do you explain this? ”

As Liu Shixing pushed the searched radio station and the code book to the eyes of the arrested spies, these Japanese spy personnel who had been lurking in Longzhou City for many years finally realized that their denial was meaningless.

After a long silence, the leading shopkeeper said in frustration: "I have been cautious in my actions, how do you know our identity?" Also, who are you? You don't look like a military commander's agent? ”

"Really? Good eyesight! However, the contemptible man also served in the military command in his early years, and later came out again. You are hidden deep enough, but you are too greedy. The other vendors have already left, but you are still in the city.

Although there are still some traders in the city who are like you, who plan to surrender when the Japanese army comes. But you seem to have forgotten that you had a good personal relationship with the security corps and those in the county government earlier, and it stands to reason that when the little devils enter the city, you will be liquidated.

I know that you and your men have been keeping an eye on the No. 5 cloth shop, which is a secret station of the military command. Now that they have left early, there are no opponents in the city, and you think you can finally wait for the Japanese army to enter the city.

It's a pity that all the spies in the city except for you are under our control. The reason why I didn't do it to you is because I think you are still a little useful. Secondly, I also want you to feel what it is like to go from heaven to hell.

If I'm not mistaken, you should have sent someone to send out the fortifications and troop deployment map built by the Longzhou Security Regiment earlier. If you wait for the Japanese army to attack the city and find out that this defense map is fake, what do you think will be the consequences? ”

"Despicable!"

I never thought that my every move was already under the control of the other party. The spy personnel of the special high school who have been lurking in Longzhou for many years also know that the army is attacking the city, and if they really attack according to the defense plan, they will inevitably suffer heavy losses.

In fact, from the moment Xu Sandao suddenly led his troops into the city to take over Longzhou, the person in charge of the intelligence station had already sensed that something was wrong with the situation. It's a pity that before he started the emergency reporting procedure, Liu Shixing led people to break in.

Without giving him any chance to explain or resist, the entire grain store was arrested. As hidden spies, they are well aware of the consequences of revealing their identities. Once the identity of the spy is revealed, unless he chooses to betray, he will die!

The operation that took place in Longzhou City to clear the Japanese intelligence dens was only part of the eradication plan. In the Qinzhou area, which was first occupied by the Japanese army, Japanese spies in many cities were killed while preparing to retire.

was assassinated with him, and there were also traitors who acted as the eyes and ears of the little devil. The officers of the Japanese Army's Special High Division, who were in charge of intelligence work in the southwest, soon discovered that this series of assassinations were all aimed at Japanese spies and traitors.

In Hu Biao's words, whether it is the spy who has been exposed and is ready to retire, or the spy who still continues to lurk. The dens and intelligence agents known to Liu Shixing in the entire Guizhou Province were all eradicated.

Without these spy personnel who are familiar with the local situation, even if the Japanese army occupies some county towns, it will have to spend more energy and time to understand the situation in the surrounding towns and villages. The purpose of eradicating traitors is also to deter other people who have this mind.

When the officers of the Special High Division in charge of the southwest received a telegram from the infantry brigade to assist in the investigation, they suddenly found that the intelligence agencies that had been deployed in various parts of the southwest for many years had been devastated. Some of the bribed squires are also like frightened birds at this moment.

For these squires with little prestige in the local area, in order to protect their own interests, they often chose to turn to those in power. Now that the Japanese army had occupied these cities, it was natural for these squires to want to take refuge in the Japanese army.

However, as a series of assassination plans unfolded, many of the squires were warned by unknown armed men. There are those traitors who were assassinated as examples, how can other traitors who have not yet made a choice dare to do things for the little devils easily?

Without the support of these squires, the Japanese army wanted to stabilize these occupied areas, but they were afraid that the difficulty would increase several times. For a time, the officers of the Japanese Army's Special High Division, who were in charge of southwest affairs, suddenly discovered that they had lost control of the intelligence of the southwest.

Compared with the angry and corrupt Japanese army's special high class, Liu Shixing, who was sitting in Longzhou, seemed very happy. Looking at the telegrams sent from all over the place, Liu Shixing said with a smile: "Extinguish the little devil's ear and see who continues to provide information to the little devil!" ”

As shocked and curious as the Japanese army's special high class, there was also the person in charge of the military command in charge of intelligence work in the southwest. As intelligence officers dispatched by the Nationalist Government to Gui Province, they were also curious about who had carried out this series of assassinations.

"Haven't you found out who did it?"

"Sir, I can't find out! Right now, the little devils in the city are scurrying like headless flies. The news we got was that the little devil suspected that we had assassinated them. This city of dissatisfaction is in turmoil, and it wants to find us out! ”

"Damn! Is there any other spy organization in this city? ”

As far as the Japanese army is concerned, it is undoubtedly the old adversary military commander who has the ability to organize this series of eradication plans. But now the military commanders don't know that they are taking the blame for Liu Shixing. But this honor, many military intelligence officers feel that they will not refuse.

Waiting for the Southwest Military Command Station to report the intelligence to the Shancheng side, Dai Li said with certainty: "Those who have the ability to do this, except for the flying fox, I can't think of a second person." This guy looks like he's going to stir up trouble in the southwest again! ”

"Bureau, there are Flying Fox generals here, can we cooperate with them? Looking at the frame of the little devil, this time he invaded the southwest, I am afraid that he will not leave for a short time. Joining forces with them will also help us find out the information of the little devils! ”

After listening to the suggestions of his subordinates, Dai Li also felt that he could consider it. Judging from the current battlefield situation, the Japanese army's surprise attack on Qinzhou and its approach to Nanning really shocked and surprised the Nationalist Government. The southwest is of great strategic significance to the national government at this moment!
