Chapter 405: Mission Determination Take the initiative

In the evening. The county seat of Lin'an County in the western Hebei region. Francis' house. The south courtyard is inverted in the south room. The concierge is next door to the reception room.

Wan Fulai reported to Francis on the previous expansion changes and updates within the detective team. Eight young, able-bodied members sat on chairs on either side of the rectangular table.

These eight members of the team are all children of poor peasant families, distributed in different rural areas in North China, living in poverty, deeply exploited and oppressed by local landlords and old money, but they are powerless to resist. After the Japanese devils invaded the entire territory of North China, life became even more difficult, and their lives were in danger. In the past, every year during the slack season, they would come from different towns and villages to the Weiyuan Martial Arts Hall in Lin'an County, and most of them were apprentices of Fang Jiren. They usually practice hard every day at home. In the past few years, he has practiced a strong martial arts, each with its own tricks. After joining the detective team, he was appointed by Wan Fulai as the leader of the special trio or the five-person team.

Taking advantage of the expansion of the detective team, Fang Jiren recruited these eight high-ranking disciples and more than 20 other Fang family disciples from all over the countryside in North China to the county seat and handed them over to Wan Fulai to join the detective team. According to Fang Jiren's secret instructions, Wan Fulai proposed to the captain Qian Wanlin that whoever recruits the newcomers should be responsible for training and leading, and he will be responsible for himself. Qian Wanlin thought that it was reasonable and prudent to do so, and he also had peace of mind and trouble, so he agreed to accept it. Wan Fulai's team originally had more than 40 people, all of whom were selected by himself, and after more than a year of careful training, care and testing, more than 40 people were like siblings, and then formed a team with Wan Fulai as the core. And the players with poor conduct, many vices, and weak health were all transferred to other teams by Wan Fulai.

After the expansion of the detective team, Wan Fulai received more than 20 people secretly recommended by Fang Jiren, and then made the first team the team with the most members, the largest power, the strongest strength, and the best weapons and equipment in the detective team. Wan Fulai has always wanted to find an opportunity to get rid of Guan Mazi, who is always competing with him openly and secretly, but he has not found a suitable opportunity, and it is inconvenient to do it in the county. It made him like a fish in his throat, tangled and unbearable. Wan Fulai believed that if this person was not killed, he would not be at peace for a day, and it would also bring a lot of trouble and danger to the anti-Japanese struggle in the western Hebei region. Wan Fulai mentioned this matter to Fang Jiren once, and Fang Jiren dissuaded Wan Fulai from doing it himself, and instructed Wan Fulai to pull out a list of hardcore traitors, bullies and scoundrels who should be punished in the county town and hand it over to Fang Jiren for disposal. This is also the task that is very necessary for Francis to carry out a series of major operations to remove obstacles and potential dangers.

After listening to the report, Francis gave the first order for urgent action. Wan Fulai and the eight comrades-in-arms were all taken aback after hearing this, and they were stunned with their mouths open. I couldn't help but wonder in my heart: What kind of task is this? Going to these places to do this kind of thing is secondary, mainly because I feel disgusting and lose face.

Fang Jiren looked at these close comrades-in-arms and knew what was going on in their hearts at this time. What do you think? Fang Jiren first smiled, and then asked with a straight face:

"What's wrong? Why don't you speak? Difficult? Is it timidity and fear? Or do you disobey orders? Okay, you can refuse to accept the mission and not participate in this operation, then I will send someone else to carry it out. ”

"Don't mind, don't mind. Sixth brother, we, we resolutely accept the order to guarantee and guarantee the successful completion of the task. Wan Fulai knew very well in his heart that once Fang Jiren gave the order, he would never take it back. If you refuse to accept it, you will lose his trust from then on, and you will definitely be regarded by him as a cowardly egg-wrenching ghost. During the brutal War of Resistance Against Japan, he would immediately cut off his robe and never have any contact. This is something that Wan Fulai can never bear and accept.

"Hmph, Brother Fu, why don't I have the confidence to hear you say this? Tell me, what are your concerns? Or is there any difficulty? ”

"No, no, absolutely nothing, nothing. Sixth brother, let me tell you what is in my heart. We are not afraid of difficult and dangerous tasks and actions, and we must resolutely complete them even if we risk our lives. However, this operation let us go to the thieves' nest and dirty nest to do this kind of petty theft, I really feel unbearable on my face and awkward in my heart. Besides, what's the use of all that stolen dirty stuff? It's disgusting. ”

The eight comrades-in-arms nodded in agreement.

"Wrong! This operation is an important step before the follow-up major action. If it cannot be satisfactorily completed, it will affect the implementation of the follow-up operation, and even lead to the failure of the operational plan for the entire western Hebei region and the strategic deployment for the entire territory of North China. Can you afford it? Well? Francis said loudly.

"Huh? Sixth brother, it's so serious. Wan Fulai immediately stood up and said, "We accept the order and promise once again that we will complete the task successfully." ”

The eight comrades-in-arms also stood up together and unanimously expressed their determination to complete the task.

"Good, good. Sit down, sit down. Brother Fu, after dinner, you send someone to take over, change the brothers from the stove shop and outside here to eat and rest, and call the brothers who are going to take over in the second half of the night. I'm going to treat you all these days, and I want to meet them. Francis commanded.

"Yes. Ay? Sixth brother, what did you just say about the strategic deployment of the whole territory of North China? Is it going to be a big counterattack against the little devils? Wan Fulai asked curiously.

"Now I don't know what the strategic deployment is? How to deploy? This still has to wait for orders from superiors. However, I think it should be prepared in advance for a major counteroffensive. Wait, it should be soon. Let's ponder the details of the action. ”

The county seat of Lin'an County. Ding's compound. North courtyard living room.

Ding Wenqian, Ding Ruxuan's uncle and nephew sat on the couch under the north wall of the living room with a sad sigh, and Uncle Lao Gen and the housekeeper stood beside them.

According to the reports of the "nails" and "eyes" sent out by the Ding family, the Fang family, who had been searched for several days in a row of all shops and businesses in and out of the city, showed no sign of counterattack. However, the sudden power outage in the whole city and the sudden purchase of grain, oil, coal, kerosene and other essential items for daily life by the people of the whole city have aroused great concern and special vigilance of Ding Wenqian and Ding Ruxuan's uncle and nephew. Why is that? Is someone organizing it in secret? Who has such ability? Or is it a coincidence? Are these things intrinsically related? What do these things portend? What will happen later? Ding Wenqian and Ding Ruxuan pondered and meditated, but they couldn't think of an ugly person.

Mother Liu walked into the living room lightly and beckoned Ding Wenqian and Ding Ruxuan to dinner.

"Bad, bad! Something big is going to happen! The county is going to be in chaos! The entire western Hebei region is going to be in chaos! Ding Wenqian suddenly stood up, his eyes straightened, and shouted loudly in horror.

Ding Wenqian's actions and shouts really shocked Ding Ruxuan, Uncle Lao Gen, the housekeeper and Mother Liu, they didn't understand what made Ding Wenqian so frightened? I don't know what big thing Ding Wenqian said is going to happen? Why is there a big chaos in the county seat and the western Hebei region? They all want to know what's going on?
