When Ye Tufei returned to his hiding place, it was already late at night.

Everyone didn't sleep, they were all anxiously waiting for Ye Tufei's return. On this day, they got a lot of information and urgently needed to report to Ye Tufei.

"Sixth master, we wandered around the gendarmerie station for a whole afternoon, and we didn't find any special circumstances, and the gendarmerie of little Japan seemed very quiet!"

"Sixth master, let's connect with Secretary Peng's people with Sister Xueping today, and we also met Secretary Peng, Secretary Peng said that Gao Qiaoxin may have left Xuzhou City!"

When Ye Tufei heard this, his heart tightened, he choked on the tea, and coughed repeatedly.

"What? You repeat! Ye Tufei endured the discomfort in his throat, his eyes widened, and asked Guo Zhonglin.

"Secretary Peng said that Takahashi may have left Xuzhou City!" Guo Zhonglin raised his voice, and there was some disappointment in his words.

Ye Tufei suddenly withered.

"Already gone? He's gone? Ye Tufei muttered to himself: "Why did this bastard leave early? Didn't you say that it would take another week for him to go to Nanjing to take office? ”

Ouyang Xueping walked to Ye Tufei's side at this time, stroked Ye Tufei's back, and said softly: "What Secretary Peng said is just possible, Tufei, Secretary Peng's news is not certain, don't worry, wait for Secretary Peng to confirm the news before making a decision, okay?" ”

"No, I want to see Peng Youming immediately!" Ye Tufei sighed.

If Peng Youming's news is accurate, then what Ye Tufei is doing now will be a futile act of moths to the fire, and he will only send himself and his brothers to danger, and will not be able to gain anything from danger.

He had to ascertain the truth of this news as soon as possible, otherwise, once their whereabouts were known to the Japanese, then they could be completely wiped out. Because without Takahashi Shin, others would not have the urgent desire to capture Ye Tufei alive, and the time left for them to complete the hot air balloon making would also be lost.

Besides, escaping through a hot air balloon is just an idea of his own, and whether it can succeed or not, there are many variables.

Ouyang Xueping was the first to stand up against Ye Tufei's request: "It's so late, how can you contact Secretary Peng?" ”

Guo Zhonglin also helped Ouyang Xueping and said: "Sixth Master, there are rules on Secretary Peng's side, and if we break other people's rules, it will be tantamount to bringing danger to others!" ”

Ye Tufei wanted to speak and stopped.

How would he explain this to them?

Ye Tufei could only be silent.

Now, he has to make a choice, believe in Peng Youming's information, believe that Takahashi Shin has left Xuzhou, then, it is best to evacuate overnight, as for how to solve Takahashi Shin, I believe there will be a chance in the future. If it is determined that Peng Youming's information is wrong and Takahashi Shin is still in Xuzhou City, then he should remain silent and hold on until the moment when Takahashi Shin can't help but show up.

However, the message passed by Peng Youming had two more words: maybe.

Just as he was in the middle of this, there was a knock on the door.

Everyone was nervous for a moment, but when they heard the knock on the door, Ouyang Xueping let out a sigh of relief and said, "It should be Secretary Peng's person!" ”

opened the gate of the courtyard, and a figure flashed in, but it was Peng Youming.

"Okay, now it's certain that Takahashi Shin has indeed left Xuzhou City ahead of schedule!" After Peng Youming entered the house, he didn't have time to sit down, so he told Ye Tufei the information he had just gotten, "I left by train early this morning, and it is estimated that I have already settled down in Nanjing." ”

Ye Tufei forced himself to calm down and asked, "How did you get this information?" ”

Peng Youming poured himself a glass of water, drank it all in one go, wiped his mouth, and replied: "There are our people at the train station!" At first, I suspected that this was a trick by the Takahashi messenger, but just an hour earlier, news came from our comrades who were lurking in Nanking that Takahashi had taken up his post in Nanking and was a special adviser to the intelligence department of the Nanking government. ”

Ye Tufei was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly smiled, "Thank you, Secretary Peng, if it weren't for your news, I'm afraid we would really suffer a big loss this time!" ”

Peng Youming waved his hand and said, "Don't say that, if it weren't for my news being too closed, you wouldn't have made this trip in vain." By the way, Brother Ye, what are your plans next? Just let Takahashi go like this? ”

Ye Tufei smiled bitterly: "If you want to let it go, what can you do?" He has now gone to Nanjing, and he can't reach it! ”

Peng Youming frowned and said, "I have a way, but it's too dangerous, forget it, it's better not to say it." ”

Ye Tufei said with a smile: "When did your Secretary Peng learn to get up from your mother-in-law?" It's not good, it's only going to lower your status in my mind, hehe, just say what you think, don't hide it. ”

Peng Youming glanced at Ye Tufei, opened his mouth, closed it again, hesitated for a few times, and then gritted his teeth and said his thoughts: "You can go to Nanjing to find Zhao Ming, he is now in an important position in the Nanjing government." Brother Ye, you are kind to him, and with your ability, it is still easy to ask for an errand in the Nanjing government, so you can ......"

Ye Tufei interrupted Peng Youming: "You mean to let me be a traitor?" Okay, in order to kill Takahashi Shin, I, Ye Tufei, can ignore my reputation, but the Japanese will believe me? Will you keep a bandit leader who has been fighting with him for more than a year? ”

Peng Youming let out a long breath and said: "The reason why you have a hard time with Little Japan can be explained as a personal grudge with Takahashi Shin, and in addition, you can give up Erlang Mountain and disband the armed team of Erlang Mountain to prove yourself." ”

Ye Tufei looked at Peng Youming in surprise and asked, "Give up Erlang Mountain?" Disbanding the bandit battalion? Just to get an errand from Zhao Ming to facilitate the assassination of Takahashi Shin? Secretary Peng, what's wrong with you today? Got the wrong medicine? ”

At this time, the brothers had already gone to sleep, and there were only Ye Tufei and Peng Youming in the room.

Peng Youming paused and said his true purpose.

"We need someone who can break into the top of the Nanjing government, and through that, enter the high-level network of Japanese military circles. Brother Ye, now the Sino-Japanese war has been fought for three years, and in the past three years, although we have fought very hard, we have held on after all, but how great our sacrifices have been in the past three years, do you know? ”

Ye Tufei nodded silently, not to mention the frontal battlefield, it was his Erlang Mountain bandit camp, and there were no less than five hundred brothers who died.

"Brother Ye, do you know what our weakest point is compared to Little Japan?"

Ye Tufei has thought about this problem many times, and he once educated Zhang Luohui that the reason for the repeated defeats of the national army lies in the poor quality of grassroots officers. However, over the past year or so, he has fought with Little Japan several times, but he found that the tactical quality of the grassroots officers of Little Japan is no more than that, and compared with regimental-level officers like Zhang Luohui, the advantages are not obvious.

So, what's the weakest point? Ye Tufei was not sure, so he could only shake his head.

"It's intelligence!" Peng Youming sighed and said his answer: "Little Japan attaches great importance to its own intelligence system, they not only planted many spies in us, but also cracked our telegram code many times, so to speak, we are fighting with Little Japan with our eyes closed, you say, can we not suffer?" ”

No matter how strong the blind man's martial arts are, he can't beat the clear-eyed man! Ye Tufei is very clear about this truth.

Peng Youming's intention is very clear, that is, he hopes that Ye Tufei can break into the Nanjing government, so as to become a pair of eyes of the anti-Japanese forces. Ye Tufei did not reject this plan, but Peng Youming used Takahashi Shin as a bait to throw out this idea, which somewhat made Ye Tufei's heart a little unhappy.

Therefore, he remained silent.

Peng Youming didn't notice the slight change in Ye Tufei's expression, but continued: "At present, the Japanese military leadership is divided into two factions for the future strategic direction, one faction advocates going north and cooperating with the Germans to take the whole of Europe, and the other faction insists on going south and occupying the entire South Asia, the Soviet Union hopes that we can figure out the strategic direction of the Japanese as soon as possible, you know, Europe is now very strong in gunpowder, war between Germany and the Soviet Union is inevitable, and if the Japanese attack the Soviet Union from the northeast border, Then the situation is very dangerous. ”

Ye Tufei seemed to remember that a few months ago, in a place called Nomenkan, the Japanese Kwantung Army and the Soviet Union fought a battle, and in that battle, Little Japan was defeated, but the Soviet Union also suffered a lot of losses.

As soon as he thought of Nuomenkan, Peng Youming mentioned this matter.

In May of this year, the Japanese Kwantung Army took the initiative to provoke and launched the Battle of Nomenkan, and although the Soviet Red Army finally won the victory, it also paid a great price. The Soviet top brass realized that the combat effectiveness of the Japanese army had improved qualitatively compared with more than 30 years ago, and if it was attacked by Germany and Japan at the same time, then it would ......"

Peng Youming didn't explain, but his meaning was clear.

"If the Soviet Union falls, then we will have no foreign aid, and this war with Japan will be even more difficult. Brother Ye, if you can successfully break into the top of the Nanjing government, and then infiltrate the network into the top of the Japanese army, then it is possible to change all this. Brother Ye, we think about it and think that you are the best person to carry out this task, for the sake of the country, for the sake of the whole nation, we hope that you can put aside your personal gains and losses......"

Ye Tufei didn't let Peng Youming continue, waved his hand, and said: "For this reason, I will once again be infamous as a traitor, and I will disband the brothers in the bandit battalion...... Secretary Peng, don't you think this price is too great? ”

Peng Youming sighed and said: "This price is indeed not small, but compared to the overall situation of the Anti-Japanese War, what is this price?" ”
