Seeing the owner of the teahouse go downstairs, Liu Tianshu glanced around, and found that there was no guest, so he immediately lifted the teapot, and there was indeed a folded note underneath. Liu Tianshu picked it up and took a look, after remembering the content, he took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth, Chen Jian hurriedly bent down and took out the lighter to light it, and just about to get in front of Liu Tianshu, he saw Liu Tianshu casually put the note over, lit it with the firelight, and then withdrew the cigarette in his mouth.

After the note burned into ashes, Liu Tianshu raised his hand, and the paper ash immediately drifted away, he took a deep breath, picked up the teacup and took a sip, and then said indifferently: "Let's go." ”

The five people walked downstairs, and the owner of the teahouse accompanied them out of the teahouse with a grovel bow, and said that the guest officer was good, and waited until Liu Tianshu and the others walked away, and then returned to the teahouse angrily.

And downstairs, several of the tea guests saw Liu Tianshu's arrogant appearance, and some even saw them spitting on the ground after they walked away.

In these years, those who can be so arrogant are generally people who have a close relationship with devils.

Liu Tianshu's identity at this time was the son of a wealthy businessman who traveled from Tianjin to Jinan. This wealthy businessman naturally has a close relationship with the Japanese military.

Walking to the city gate, Liu Tianshu saw that the devil guarding the gate was checking the passers-by, and walked over with a few people.

Chen Jian, the housekeeper, naturally followed him to talk, while Shi Qiang, Shi Hu and Sun Bao carried their luggage.

"Stop, what are you doing? Examine. Seeing a group of people coming, a pseudo-policeman in a black police uniform shouted at several people.

Perhaps the Japanese troops stationed in Jinan in order to decorate the façade, the four city gates in Jinan were investigated by the pseudo police, of course, there were Japanese soldiers stationed at the city gates who were responsible for guarding the gates.

"This brother, we are from Tianjin, this is my young master, this is our pass." As he spoke, Chen Jian had already waved a special pass issued by the Japanese military secret service in China in front of the puppet police.

The thin pseudo-policeman stretched out his hand to take it, but who knew that Chen Jian took back the pass with a shake of his hand, looked at him and said disdainfully: "You also deserve to see this pass?" Call your captains. ”

The pseudo-policeman touched his nose, but he didn't dare to be angry when he looked at the faces of the few people in front of him.

The few people who followed behind the young master, who were obviously bulging with their waists, were obviously carrying the guy, and the young master, who was a little weak, didn't even glance at the conversation between him and the housekeeper.

Probably seeing that this group of people was not small, a middle-aged man wearing the rank of sergeant came over.

"What's going on?" He frowned.

"Report to the sheriff, they're from Tianjin." The skinny pseudo-policeman looked at the sheriff and said with a smile.

"Tianjin?" The pseudo-sheriff was stunned when he heard this, and his eyes fell on Liu Tianshu, but Liu Tianshu didn't even look at him.

Chen Jian said a little arrogantly: "This is Ji Chaotian, the son of Boss Ji of Tianjin Nanhua Commercial Bank, this is our pass." ”

As he spoke, Jian Chen handed over the pass in his hand.

At this time, Nomura, the leader of the devil squad in charge of guarding the south gate, saw that there was something strange here, and strode over.

"Report to Taijun, he is Ji Chaotian, the son of the boss of Tianjin Nanhua Commercial Bank, this is their pass." When the pseudo-sheriff saw Captain Nomura coming, he immediately bent over, bowed, and handed over the pass.

Nomura took a look at it, it was a special pass issued by the Tianjin secret service, and raised his eyes to look at Liu Tianshu again, and saw Liu Tianshu looking at him indifferently, and immediately asked: "Yours, what is Ji Gongzi doing in Jinan?" ”

"I heard that the spring water in Jinan is famous all over the world, anyway, my son has nothing to do recently, so I came to play by the way." Liu Tianshu said fluently in Japanese.

"Ji Gongzi understands Japanese?" The Japanese squad leader couldn't help but be surprised.

So Liu Tianshu said that he had studied in Japan for three years and admired Japanese culture very much, and then talked about the scenery of Japan.

The pass Liu Tianshu used this time was not forged by himself, but a real pass prepared for him by the underground party that could withstand inspection, which was the identity of Ji Gongzi, and it was also true, but the real Ji Gongzi, who was closed at home at this time.

In order to let him enter the city smoothly, the underground party spent a lot of effort to prepare this time, and all this was prepared for him on the way from Fuya Mountain to Jinan by Liu Tianshu.

The group entered the city and immediately stayed in the most luxurious Oriental Hotel in Jinan.

The group of five lived in a large suite, Liu Tianshu naturally lived in the master bedroom, Chen Jian, as a housekeeper, lived in the second bedroom, and Shi Qiang lived in the bodyguard room.

After the service staff carried the luggage of several people into the room, they immediately politely withdrew.

After seeing that there were only five of them in the room, Liu Tianshu made a gesture, and everyone sat down on the sofa.

Chen Jian, Sun Leopard, Shi Hu and the three of them, who used to be bandits who robbed houses and houses in Taihang Mountain, naturally also went to the county town to make a scene, although they lived in such a luxurious room, the three of them were somewhat restrained, but they quickly adapted. Although Shi Qiang has been growing up in the mountains, he saw that Liu Tianshu was very casual about all this, and he did not have any earthy air on his body.

"Jian Chen, the organization let us pretend to be Ji Gongzi, but the funds given to us are not much, wait for you and Sun Bao to go out to find out the situation, see if there is a suitable object, and we will **** a vote at night." Shi Qiang and Shi Hu went out for a walk with me. Liu Tianshu immediately began to assign tasks.

There are still a few hours before dark, and according to the agreement, Liu Tianshu will go to Daming Lake this afternoon to connect with the organization.

On the shore of Daming Lake, Liu Tianshu walked to a cruise ship with an inconspicuous mark, asked Shi Qiang to rent a boat, and then the three of them followed the boat owner on the cruise ship.

Half of the cruise ship on Daming Lake is open-air, and half is a canopy cabin, Liu Tianshu strode onto the boat and went directly into the cabin under the courtesy of the boat owner.

There is a small table in the cabin with a tea set on it, where guests can enjoy tea while chatting, or just leaning on the railing.

At that time, there was a middle-aged man in his forties sitting in the cabin, although he was wearing a long robe, he looked very energetic in the autumn breeze.

Seeing Liu Tianshu and his entourage coming in, the owner of the ship said that the guest officer was invited to take a seat, and at the same time gave him a look, and then withdrew.

The boat then sailed out of the shore and headed out for the lake. Daming Lake in autumn is clear and clear, and the distant mountains are like daisies.

The middle-aged man raised his head at this time, looked at Liu Tianshu and said enthusiastically: "Hello, you are Comrade Xiao Wang from your hometown, right?" ”

In accordance with the principle of working on the secret front, the tasks are carried out under pseudonyms. In the instructions given by the provincial party committee to the underground party in Jinan, Liu Tianshu is Comrade Xiao Wang from the mountains.

"I'm Wang Hanmin." Liu Tianshu smiled calmly.

"Hello, hello, I'm Xia Sheng, let me pick you up organizationally." After shaking hands with Liu Tianshu warmly, Xia Shengren glanced at him again and asked in a low voice, "Is Comrade Xiao Wang from Qingyang Mountain or Fuya Mountain?" ”

What he said was actually a bit beyond the discipline regulations, Liu Tianshu was thinking about whether to answer, Xia Shengyuan probably realized that he was too excited, and actually violated the discipline, and hurriedly said: "I am so happy to see the comrades from home, Comrade Xiao Wang, don't be surprised, I didn't say this." ”

Hearing this, Liu Tianshu thought for a while and said, "We are from Fuya Mountain. ”

"Then you must know the battalion commander Liu Tianshu of the independent battalion, now there are rumors in Jinan City about the Fuyashan Independent Battalion, and the independent battalion has won several big victories over there, which is really exciting." Xia Shengyuan's eyes lit up and he said with some excitement.

Shi Qiang and Shi Hu, who were standing on the side, were about to speak with some excitement on their faces, but they were casually glanced at by Liu Tianshu, and the two were immediately silent.

"Hehe, it's not a big victory." Liu Tianshu said lightly.

But Xia Sheng was still very excited: "Comrade Xiao Wang, after you go back, if possible, you will definitely say hello to Battalion Commander Liu Tianshu on behalf of our Jinan underground party." ”

"If possible, I'll bring it."

"I really want to see this Liu Tianshu who makes the devil sleepless during the day." Xia Shengren sighed.

"I'm sure you'll meet sooner or later." Liu Tianshu smiled lightly.

After saying a few words, Xia Shengren began to introduce the situation.

It turned out that as the war continued, Japan began to feel the lack of manpower, material and financial resources, and the resources could be continuously transported back from China, but with the expansion of the war, there began to be a shortage of labor in Japan.

As a result, the Japanese military government began to turn its evil eyes on China, first recruiting laborers from the occupied areas under various names and transporting them to Northeast China and Japan proper, and later, it began to extend its evil hand to the Chinese soldiers who unfortunately fell into the hands of devils.

When the Nationalist Government learned that the devils had begun to secretly transport the soldiers who had fallen into their hands to Japan to work as laborers, it immediately asked the intelligence departments in the enemy-occupied areas to step up the collection of information in this regard, and at the same time, the Communist intelligence personnel also began to pay attention to this matter.

Of the laborers who were to be shipped to Japan this time, 800 of them were Chinese soldiers who had been captured. Some of these soldiers came from the southern battlefield, some from the Henan battlefield, and some from the Taihang Mountains.

After learning that the devils had decided to gather these captured soldiers in Jinan, transport them to Qingdao by rail, and then ship them to the Japanese mainland, the top leaders of the Kuomintang and the Communist Party gave the intelligence departments the task of keeping a close surveillance, and at the same time sent elite troops to prepare for the rescue.

According to Xia Shengyuan, the Kuomintang Ma Xuekui's unit, which was operating in the Changlai Mountain area of Jiping County, received an order to fully cooperate with the rescue.

"Lao Xia, are you saying that the Kuomintang also sent a capable team to infiltrate Shandong?" Liu Tianshu couldn't help but be stunned.

"Yes, according to our intelligence, the Kuomintang military commander sent a special team over, the number of which is unknown, but the stationmaster Lin of the military commander stationed at Jinan Station has sent someone to contact us, hoping that the two sides will exchange information." Xia Shengyuan glanced out the window and said.
