On August 4, 1949, the People's Liberation Army approached the city, and Changsha, Hunan Province was peacefully liberated. Bai Chongxi's prefect's office was forced to move to Hengyang, and Bai Chongxi believed that at this point in the war, it was necessary to prepare to move the prefect's office to Guilin, which was the key to implementing the strategic retreat. To the south, you can retreat to Nanning or Leizhou, but if you can't, you can temporarily take refuge in Vietnam through Zhennan Pass (now Friendship Pass), and retreat to Guizhou to the west, and join up with the friendly forces in Yunnan to seek a way out. All this can only be realized through the Guizhou-Guizhou border area. Recently, guerrilla activities have been rampant in this area, and if we do not seize the time to exterminate them and allow them to grow, they will certainly jeopardize the strategic retreat plan. This should not be taken lightly. Bai Chongxi ordered someone to draft a telegram and send it to Guangxi, the telegram was as follows: Recently, the Communist Party has set up the Guizhou-Guizhou Border People's Liberation Corps to step up sabotage and nuisance activities in our Guilin and Liuzhou areas. Specific appointments will be made later. Bai Chongxi.

The operational conference room of the Longcheng Suppression General Headquarters. The long conference table was flanked by ministers, their hats neatly arranged on either side of the table, and the officers sat in their seats with their arms down, palms on their legs, eyes looking ahead, and their bodies straight. Sitting in the commander's seat, on the right hand is Chen Tianlei, the commander-in-chief of the suppression, next to him is Bai Yesheng, director of the Intelligence Division, and on the left hand is Xiao Yazhi, the head of the Longcheng Station of the Secret Bureau, and other officers.

"Stand up!" The officer, who was standing at the door of the conference room, gave the order. The officers immediately stood up, and through the door walked an officer with the rank of major general and an entourage officer with a briefcase, and went straight to the position of the commander in the middle. Chen Tianlei looked at the major general and said, "Welcome Tang Gao to participate in our department's instructions!" And lead the applause. Tang Gaoshen nodded, sat down, and then, took off his hat and put it on the table.

"Sit down!" After Chen Tianlei gave the order, the last one sat down. Tang Gaoshen waved his hand back, and the entourage officer, who was standing a few steps behind him, immediately took out the documents from his briefcase, walked to the table, placed the documents on the table in front of Tang Gaoshen, and then retreated to the original place to stand. Tang Gaoshen picked up the document, got up and read out: "Order!" "Brush" at once, and all stand up. In an instant, the air in the room seemed to freeze, so still that you could hear a needle falling to the ground. Tang Gaoshen continued to read out: "Chen Tianlei was appointed as the commander of the 15th Commissioner's Office, Bai Yesheng was appointed as the deputy commander of the 15th Commissioner's Office, and Xiao Yazhi was appointed as the deputy commander of the 15th Commissioner's Office and the head of the Longcheng Station of the Longcheng District Secret Bureau...... Once the order has been read, sit down! After the officers sat down, Tang Gaoshen glanced at it and continued: "Everyone! From now on, the headquarters of the 15th Commissioner's Office will be set up in Nanliang County, and it will be commanded from the front, encircled and suppressed from the front, and must annihilate the Communist guerrilla corps in a short period of time. Guys, can you do it? ”

"Yes!" The officers replied loudly.

"Good! I'm waiting to hear your good news. Okay, everyone, I have something important to do, and I can't delay, so I'll rush back to Guilin Bai Mansion and say goodbye! After Tang Gaoshen finished speaking, he put on his hat, got up and left the conference room with his entourage, and went back to Guilin.

Chen Tianlei, commander of the 15th Commissioner's Office, sat back in the governor's seat. He said, "Everyone! The 15th Commissioner's Office has been set up and your appointments have been issued, and the most important task at present is to wipe out the communist guerrillas. For this reason, I order: The Longcheng District Security Corps and the Nanliang County Self-Defense Corps immediately encircle and suppress the Tanliang guerrilla brigade that threatens the lifeline of communication from Guilin to Longcheng, and must annihilate it. ”

"Yes!" Guo Lian, head of the security regiment, and Chen Bing, head of the Nanliang County Self-Defense Corps, quickly stood up and replied in unison. Chen Tianlei continued: "The special task force of the Longcheng Station of the Secret Security Bureau is waiting for an opportunity to carry out a beheading operation against the leader of the communist guerrillas, and all intelligence and espionage personnel are doing a good job of infiltration and sabotage activities, so as to create a situation in which the communist guerrillas are leaderless and internally chaotic. ”

"Yes!" Xiao Yazhi, deputy commander and head of the Longcheng Station of the Secret Bureau, stood up and replied. Chen Tianlei said in the end: "Ladies and gentlemen, this action is a great opportunity to establish the prestige of our 15 th Commissioner's Office and to extinguish the rampant trend of the Communist Party. ”

"Yes!" Everyone stood up, and Chen Tianlei announced: "The meeting is adjourned!" ”

Bai Yesheng walked out of the conference room, Xiao Yazhi rushed up, played in an official tone, hugged his fists, and said, "Deputy Commander Bai, congratulations!" Bai Yesheng also hugged his fists and saluted back: "Congratulations, congratulations to Deputy Commander Xiao!" Congratulations, this official is getting bigger and bigger. Xiao Yazhi approached Bai Yesheng and whispered: "Brother Bai, you say, what's the use of this woman getting bigger and bigger?" Bai Yesheng said seriously: "Yes! The status has improved, and you can stand on a man's shoulder, and pee. Xiao Yazhi slapped him and said with a smile: "you!" Besides, it's good to look at you. Bai Yesheng pretended to be scared and said, "Look! Let's start and pee right away. Xiao Yazhi raised her fist, but she didn't smash it down, and whispered: "Brother Bai, let's celebrate?" Bai Yesheng said: "Okay, find a time for us to get together, now we are busy suppressing bandits, I want to go to Nanliang County, what about you?" Xiao Yazhi said: "I also have something to do here, and I will go when I need to." When he arrived at the gate of the general manager, Bai Yesheng drove away in a jeep, but Xiao Yazhi stood by the gate, waved his hand, and the two plainclothes in black who had been waiting next to him immediately drove a three-wheeled motorcycle to follow Bai Yesheng. Xiao Yazhi had to do this, every time she encountered an important event or meeting, in order to ensure that the news was not leaked and brought losses to the party-state, she had to make careful arrangements, pay special attention to the mood changes of the participants, track the whereabouts of key people, and understand their movements, so as to screen out useful things and smell the smell of the Communist Party among various information. Bai Yesheng was driving the car, and when he saw a car following him from a distance, he had to drive the jeep back to the intelligence office and park. After staying in the office for a while, convinced that the enemy no longer suspected him, he changed into a set of civilian clothes, went out the door, and walked straight out into the street. Bai Yesheng wanted to go to Wei Yan, the person in charge of the underground party in Longcheng, and inform the party organization of the enemy's plan to encircle and suppress the enemy as soon as possible, so that the guerrilla area could be prepared to deal with it.

Due to the rapid development of the situation, the underground party activities in Dragon City became frequent. However, due to the tight war, the enemy's troops and institutions poured into Longcheng continued to increase, the personnel were mixed, and the military spirit was scattered. Therefore, it provided space for the activities and development of the party organization, the party organization grew rapidly, and the party branch in the north of the city that was destroyed by the enemy has also been restored. Today, Wei Yan convened a meeting of the responsible persons of the party branches in various urban districts to discuss with everyone the issue of strengthening the construction of party organizations in factories and mines, and to study and deploy the work that needs to be done in line with the southward expansion strategy of the People's Liberation Army......

Bai Yesheng was on the street, one moment he entered this store, and the other time he entered that store, stopping and stopping, looking at the situation behind him as he walked, and making sure that he was not being followed, he quickened his pace and walked towards Qixiang Bookstore. As everyone knows, approaching the intersection of Qixiang Bookstore, plainclothes who were pretending to read the newspaper stared at him. Bai Yesheng didn't notice it, he walked straight towards Qixiang Bookstore, and when he was about to arrive at the door of the bookstore, he suddenly turned back to the small cigarette stall, bought a pack of cigarettes, quickly observed the surrounding situation, and saw that there was nothing unusual, so he walked to the door of the opposite bookstore. When he walked to the middle of the street, a rickshaw soliciting passengers blocked his way, and the puller wearing a straw hat left a sentence: "Don't stop!" Go straight ahead, turn left and cross the alley. Then, pull the cart and run forward. Bai Yesheng was shocked, no matter whether the person pulling the cart was friend or foe, anyway, something was wrong, the study house must not be entered, so he could only go forward according to the person's wishes, and when he crossed the alley, he caught a glimpse of two plainclothes following far behind. Out of the alley was another street, and there was a grocery store opposite, and Bai Yesheng walked in. The two plainclothes walked in the alley one after the other, and the plainclothes behind them were suddenly hit on the head by the wooden stick behind them and fainted to the ground. The plainclothes in front heard the noise and was about to look back to see what was going on, when a voice came from behind: "Robbery!" Get the money out! Before the plainclothes could turn around, he was hit the head with a wooden stick, and his eyes went black, and he lost consciousness. The attacker was none other than a rickshaw driver. I saw him, deliberately turned out the pockets of the two, took all the money, did not ask for the guns of the two, dropped the wooden stick, patted the dust on his hands, and walked away. Bai Yesheng bought some daily necessities, walked out of the grocery store, walked in the direction of going back, and was walking, the person who pulled the rickshaw just now rushed over and asked, "Sir, do you want to take the car?" Bai Yesheng sat down without saying a word, no matter what the situation was, he had to figure it out, otherwise, he wouldn't be able to enter the Qixiang Library. The car pulled Bai Yesheng to run on the street, the man didn't speak, Bai Yesheng didn't make a sound, when he spoke, he would naturally speak, and if he didn't say it, it could only be that the time had not yet come. The car turned around, and returned to a place not far from the Qixiang Library, stopped, and the coachman put the handlebars on the ground, turned around, and stepped on the handlebars with one foot, "Sir, it's here!" As he spoke, he raised his low-pressed straw hat.

"Ding Yonglian! Staff Officer Ding! Bai Yesheng whispered in surprise.

"Those two little feet have been knocked out by me, and they won't wake up for a while, you go quickly, finish your errands, and hurry up to go back, so as not to be suspected."

Bai Yesheng paid for the car, and left separately with Staff Officer Ding, and Bai Yesheng entered the Qixiang Bookstore.

When Uncle Chen saw Bai Yesheng, he first walked to the door casually, looked out left and right, and saw that there was nothing abnormal, so he stepped forward and asked, "Sir, what book do you want to buy?" Bai Yesheng took a book casually, flipped through it, and said, "I want to buy this book, but this book is too old." ”

"Sir, you wait a moment, I'll go upstairs to the storeroom to help you find a new one."

"It's hard work!"

Uncle Chen came upstairs and knocked lightly on the door, Wei Yan and the responsible persons of the party organizations in the city had been in a meeting for a long time, and were about to end the meeting, when he heard the knock on the door, signaled the participants to enter the inner room, and then opened the door. Uncle Chen whispered to Wei Yan, Wei Yan also whispered a few words to Uncle Chen, and Uncle Chen went downstairs. Wei Yan closed the door, walked into the back room and said, "Comrades, this is the end of today's meeting, because there are some situations outside, you can't go through the main entrance, come here." Wei Yan moved the wardrobe, opened a movable wooden board on the floor, and there was a staircase leading to the first floor below, which could reach the back door, and told the two of them to go out in batches, and when the people were finished, Wei Yan covered the plank, moved the wooden cabinet back to its original position, and went out of the back room. As for why don't you let them go to the main entrance? Because of the lessons learned from the long-term underground struggle and the irreplaceable important role played by Bai Yesheng, Wei Yan could not let others see what Bai Yesheng had to do with the party organization, and this was also the best way to ensure Bai Yesheng's safety. Uncle Chen led Bai Yesheng into the room, and then went downstairs to the door to watch the wind.

"Lao Wei!"

"Lao Bai!"

The two of them clasped hands tightly, and then hugged each other tightly. Wei Yan said: "Lao Bai, why did you come here in person?" Dangerous! Bai Yesheng blamed himself and said: "Yes! First of all, I have to make a review to the Party organization and ask the Party organization to punish me. When Wei Yan heard him say this, he looked at him in amazement, and this sentence came out of the mouth of the famous "Lily", which made the enemy frightened, it was indeed a big deal, and hurriedly asked: "What is so serious?" Bai Yesheng said: "When I came to the bookstore, I was very careful before, and I didn't find anyone following, but when I arrived at the door of the bookstore, I was paralyzed and careless, and was targeted by two plainclothes, but I didn't find it. Wei Yan gasped and said, "Ah! It's so dangerous! Just now, the responsible persons of the various districts of the underground party in Longcheng were still holding a meeting here, wouldn't you, me, and the responsible persons of the various urban districts be in the same pot? "If this is the case, the party will face a great loss, thinking of this, Bai Yesheng's heart is like a knife, extremely uncomfortable, he can't forgive himself for this mistake. Seeing this, Wei Yan comforted; "Didn't it happen? This is also good, after all, it is a wake-up call for us, reminding us that the more we are on the eve of victory, the more we must not relax and take it lightly! Otherwise, it will not be good to inflict immeasurable losses on our party due to our personal mistakes. Bai Yesheng nodded and said, "Yes!" The lesson is profound. Wei Yan said: "This time, there must be something very important, right?" Bai Yesheng said: "Yes! The Kuomintang has set up a special 15 th Commissioner's Office to encircle and suppress our guerrilla corps, with its headquarters in Nanliang County, and will soon launch an encirclement and suppression campaign against the Tanliang guerrilla area, and will also carry out a beheading operation against the head of our guerrilla corps. In a few days, I will also go to Nanliang County, what information and news do I have, who do I want to report to the party organization? Wei Yan said: "I will report the information you said to the superiors as soon as possible, after you arrive in Nanliang, there will be comrades to contact you immediately, remember, the joint code is, someone asked: 'Is your surname Bai?' You replied: 'Yes, my surname is Bai, the white-faced scholar Bai, what about you?' The man replied, 'My surname is Yellow, the Yellow of the Bumblebee.' ’”

"Got it!" After the two shook hands and said goodbye, Uncle Chen sent Bai Yesheng out, and he didn't forget to bring the daily necessities he bought when he went out.

On the way back, Bai Yesheng saw a team of policemen and people from the Secret Service running towards the alley. He knew that the two unconscious plainclothes had been found, and that he had to hurry back to his residence, so he quickened his pace......

Xiao Yazhi and Lin Demeng took a group of people to check the scene in the alley. One plainclothes man was still faint on the ground, and the other was standing there with his face covered in blood and his head wrapped in bandages, obscene and trivial, like a rooster who has lost a fight. Xiao Yazhi instructed Lin Demeng: "Hurry up and carry the brother lying on the ground to the hospital for rescue." Lin Demeng waved his hand, and his men carried the man away. Xiao Yazhi waved his hand at the plainclothes man who was wrapped in bandages and his face was covered with blood, and the plainclothes leaned forward tremblingly, Xiao Yazhi looked at the people around him and asked, "Who has a handkerchief?" Lin Demeng hurriedly took out a handkerchief and handed it to Xiao Yazhi, Xiao Yazhi handed the handkerchief to the injured plainclothes and said, "Look, the face is full of blood, wipe it, wipe it." Plainclothes took the handkerchief, wiped the blood on his face, and said gratefully: "Xie Lu Xie Stationmaster!" Xie Lu Xie Captain! Xiao Yazhi asked, "Tell me quickly, what's going on?" The injured plainclothes said: "I am in charge of the surveillance work in the area of this intersection, and before, I happened to meet Bai Yesheng from the General Intelligence Department."

"What? Is it Bai Yesheng? "What did he come out for at this critical moment? Could it be that he is a Communist Party and wants to find a way to pass on the meeting information to the underground organization of the Communist Party? In this year, anything will happen, and no one can trust it, Xiao Yazhi thinks so, she is not at ease with anyone, and she will doubt it.

"Yes, it's Bai Yesheng! We saw him in civilian clothes, swaying, as if looking for something, I felt suspicious, so we followed him, trying to see who he was connecting with, followed to this alley, and saw Bai Yesheng enter the grocery store opposite, we were trying to follow, but something happened. ”

"Could it be that you were knocked unconscious by Bai Yesheng?"

"It's not! He's in front, we're behind. ”

"That's strange, does he have an accomplice?"

"It's not quite like it, we are suddenly eyeing him, he has not yet noticed, let alone someone will cover him."

"Then tell me how you were attacked."

"I heard movement behind me, and just as I was about to look back to see what was happening, I heard someone behind me shouting: 'Robbery! Get the money out. The head 'boomed', and he didn't know anything, and when he woke up, he saw that the second child was knocked unconscious on the ground. ”

"Did you lose your gun?"

"The gun was not lost, the money was taken."

If it is a communist, there is no reason not to hold a gun, and the communist party has always regarded guns as more important than life. Xiao Yazhi picked up the wooden stick thrown on the ground while thinking about it, examined it carefully, and then, after checking it on the palm of her hand, she suddenly hit the injured plainclothes buttocks with a stick, and said fiercely: "Fuck! It's all a bunch of rice buckets, a good thing, but they messed up for you, why don't you all beat you to death? What's the use of keeping it? The frightened people present turned blue.

"What are you doing here? Hurry up and bring all the people from the grocery store across the street to the Secret Bureau. ”

"Yes!" The gang flocked to the grocery store to arrest people.

Bai Yesheng carried a large suitcase, came to the office of the intelligence department, opened the suitcase, and inside was some change of clothes and daily necessities. He packed some documents into a briefcase, put them in a large suitcase, and then began to organize some books, pen, ink, paper and other office supplies.
