"Passes? Yes, yes. Wang Yaqiao stepped forward and fumbled in the pocket of his robe in a hurry.

Soon, Wang Yaqiao took out a piece of paper, and said that the officer inserted the Oriental knife back into the scabbard, and was about to reach out to take the piece of paper, when Wang Yaqiao's hand flipped over, and a strange knife with a black light appeared in his hand.

Before the officer could react to what was going on, the knife in Wang Yaqiao's hand had already pierced the throat of the officer, and at this time, Wang Yaqiao still had that flattering smile on his face.

The officer looked at Wang Yaqiao, his eyes were almost out of his sockets, his lips trembled, and he wanted to warn his subordinates, but he couldn't even make a sound.

Wang Yaqiao's movements seemed to be a signal of action, and as soon as he saw the "teacher" make a move, the "students" pounced on the nearest soldier one by one like a tiger descending from the mountain.

A "student" was originally facing the rifle with a bayonet in front of the soldier, but he stepped forward with his bare hands, struck an elbow, and hit him with his body, and the rifle was snatched away by him, and before the little man could react, the bayonet had already stabbed him in the heart.

Different from this "student" who grabbed the gun empty-handed, another "student" who looked relatively thin was holding a sharp knife like a small axe and pounced on his opponent, at this time the soldier had realized what he was going to do, shouted, and stabbed him with a rifle and a bayonet, and the "student" pushed the rifle away with a push with his hand, and easily pushed the rifle away, when the soldier stabbed in the air, he had come to the front of the soldier and cut into the opponent's throat with a backhand.

If someone was present at this time, he would be surprised to find that these "students", under the leadership of the "teacher", either broke the neck of the soldier with their bare hands, or stabbed the soldier with a knife into the heart, or cut the throat of the soldier with a knife, as if they were performing a unique performance, and in just a few minutes, all the corpses of the people were lying on the ground, and they were not able to sound the slightest alarm before they died.

As if there was a clear division of labor, after all the enemy had been destroyed, several "students" picked up the rifles of the soldiers, quickly stepped forward to find shelter, and looked around vigilantly, while the remaining "students" quickly dragged the corpses of the soldiers into the woods under the leadership of the "teachers."

Wang Yaqiao looked at the Bismarck Hill Fort in the distance, and a cold and cruel smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.

"It's better to be a Nationalist! Much stronger than the Socialists. He muttered in a voice that he could only hear, and turned and went into the woods.

At about the same time, at another infiltration site, Fengtai Ridge (i.e., Water Storage Mountain, named Moltke Mountain in Germany), there was a man who was doing the same thing.

The dagger he had snatched from the opponent's hand at the beginning had broken in the enemy's ribs.

Looking at the special agent dressed as a Chinese lying there gulping blood, he looked at him mockingly with sympathy and plunged the broken knife into his eye.

The agent's hands suddenly grasped the handle of the broken knife, and his body twitched violently, and then he stopped moving.

"I'll have to think of someone else about it."

He searched the agent's belongings, and soon found several maps.

The maps depicted many and different places, some of them covered with a network of water, some of them mountainous and hilly, and although he could not immediately tell where they were, the areas outlined in two broad strokes were clearly the locations of the two warring armies.

And at the end of these drawings, two hand-drawn line drawings caught his attention.

On the first line drawing, the outline of a strange car is hastily drawn with a pencil, this boxy strange car seems to be sealed, and there is a row of wheels under the body, connected by straps; There was a square tower on the body, on which were inserted two barrel-like things.

The other line depiction depicts a cannon.

He didn't have much of an impression of the strange car, but he was quite familiar with the cannon.

He knew very well the firing process of such a 180-mm heavy gun.

At the bottom of these two pictures, the four Chinese characters "Rice Animal Gang Making" are written in scribbled strokes.

He looked at the drawings, looked around carefully, tore them to shreds, threw them into a stream not far away, and carefully dragged the body into the woods.

After quickly eliminating all suspicious traces, he stood there and hesitated for a moment, unsure whether to go back now and tell the news of the spy he had just discovered, but the pleasure of the bloody slaughter of the enemy just prevailed, he licked his lips, looked at the Moltke Hill Fort shrouded in golden sunlight in the distance, and walked forward quickly.

The member of the "Hunter Force" did not expect that at this time in his hometown, the accomplice of the agent he had just killed was also doing the same thing.

Unlike Qingdao, which is full of war atmosphere, Shuanglong Town, Jiangxi Province at this time is completely quiet and peaceful.

On a mountain road, two young people, a man and a woman, were riding on horses and walking side by side, and the two of them talked in low voices from time to time, their expressions were intimate and natural, like a newly married young couple. But if someone gets closer, they are surprised to find that the content of their conversation is completely different from the expression on their faces.

"If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, it would have been hard to imagine that there could be such a huge industrial area in such a remote place far from the coast."

"I checked the registration files of new enterprises in the last year, and nearly one-third of the newly registered enterprises were from Jiangxi. Most of them are chemical plants. ”

"The scale of the steel mills and power plants here is not small, and although I don't know how far the technology can be, it is very possible to produce guns."

"In my impression, Jiangxi's industry is good in China, but it is still far from the empire. Moreover, the industrial development of the Chinese has been very slow, but this industrial zone gives me the feeling that it has been established in a very short time. ”

"That's right, it's about a year. I heard that it was the efforts of a young general sent by Yanjing that made this place possible. ”

"Among these local warlords of the Chinese, there are such powerful figures?"

"This man is a very mysterious figure. There is no definite record of everything about him, only some scattered legends, some local people say that he is the leader of the bandits here, what is the name of the 'King of the Nine Mountains', this name is called because the bandits of the nine mountains all listen to him, and some people call him 'Bodhisattva King' and 'Bodhisattva General', because his face is very handsome, some like a woman. Some people say that he was actually a high-ranking official sent by the Yanjing political axe to Jiangxi for an unannounced visit, but I think this statement may be similar, because after using the local power to subdue the bandits, he became the commander of the town of Ganxi - an official position equivalent to a general soldier in the Qing Dynasty. ”

"Where did he get the money to build these industrial zones?"

"I heard that his wife was a goddess healer, who had invented many miraculous medicines that cured many people, and that the price of these medicines was said to be equal to gold, and that the warden himself seemed to be a geologist, and that he had found a very large salt mine here, which was probably the main source of his funds."

"What kind of magic drug, probably the same set of the Boxers, used to deceive people, right?"

"No, on the contrary, it's these drugs that are the reason why I've never been able to get out of here. Do you know? These drugs are not herbal medicines, but Western-style medicines that have been refined in modern ways. These drugs have been shown to be surprisingly effective in treating conditions such as wound infections and tuberculosis. ”

"Have you found out what the drug is?"

"Until now, I only knew the approximate names of these drugs, like sulfonamides and penicillin. As for their composition and pharmacology, as well as how they are produced, nothing is known. I thought that if we knew these secrets, it would bring great benefits to the empire, so I stayed. Think about how many soldiers' lives would be saved in the war if the factories of the empire were able to produce these drugs in large quantities! And how much money will it bring to the empire! ”

"Your ideas are very good, we should find out their secrets. But now, I want to remind you that the war between the Empire and China has reached a very critical stage, and everything we do must be carried out around this center. Do you understand? ”

"I understand that I have not forgotten my mission to China. And here I am, I have made a lot of new discoveries. ”

"What did you find?"

"The industrial zones here are different from the other industrial zones in China, where the companies seem to produce civilian products, but if they need to, they can be converted to military production at any time, and the speed and output of production are far higher than those of other regions. For example, the chemical factories that produce fertilizer for farmers in the province and even other provinces, and also produce scented soap and other common necessities, but now they are producing a lot of explosives. There were also metal factories that, ostensibly producing nails and simple copperware, were now producing large quantities of cannonballs and bullets! I think this phenomenon can very well explain why the Jiangxi army fighting in Shandong has much more ammunition and advanced weapons than other armies. ”
