Lei Zhen was of course studying at this time, studying hard. He followed Xie Jinyuan to learn writing, mathematics, geometry, the most basic tactical command, introductory behavioral psychology, history, and analysis of famous battles that had occurred in human history.

In this land, which is surrounded by great powers, there is still a squadron of [***] stationed in it, which is a miracle in itself. Many people affectionately call the lonely military camp the "little Chongqing city" of Shanghai, and every day, at least a few hundred people, with a pilgrimage-like mood, rush to the lonely military camp to listen to Xie Jinyuan's teachings, including many patriotic students and even their mentors.

"They don't need to listen to what I say, many of them know more than me, but as long as you look at the thick confusion on their faces, I know that they came to the lonely camp just to find a kind of spiritual sustenance and release."

It is with this kind of realization that Xie Jinyuan insists on meeting these Shanghai citizens every day, and no one can forget the calm smile on Xie Jinyuan's face, and no one will forget his impassioned declaration, let alone refuse the request made by such a hero.

Xie Jinyuan's request was to teach his apprentice Lei Zhen, even if it was only for an hour. Therefore, when Xie Jinyuan met with those visitors from all walks of life in Shanghai, Lei Zhen was still studying, the difference is that when such a three-class teacher stood in front of Lei Zhen, they were either generous, or at a loss, or they talked about money, or they couldn't hold back a word for a long time, but with the five words "Xie Jinyuan's apprentice", as long as they said it, they were the best or most proud of their knowledge.

The progressive students who rushed to the lonely military camp in groups told Lei Zhen how they put up leaflets promoting the protest under the noses of the patrol officers of the Ministry of Industry. It was under the enthusiastic teaching of these young students that Lei Zhen knew how to attract the attention of those patrol officers in the streets and small alleys, and knew that after peeling off a kind of tree bark and boiling it into glue, and pasting the leaflets outside, even if it was windy and rainy for several months, it would not fall off, and those patrol officers could only use an iron brush to slowly brush one by one...... If posting leaflets on the streets is a kind of war, these young, enthusiastic and intelligent students are undoubtedly the best guerrilla specialists!

"I am a thief who lives by eating hundreds of meals, and it was Head Xie who looked up to me and invited me in to give you a lecture. I don't dare to give a lecture, so let's just sit down and talk about our business. ”

How could the thief who was invited by Xie Jinyuan to give a lecture to Lei Zhen be an ordinary thief who only knew how to steal passers-by's wallets on the street?

was able to come to the lonely military camp, and Xie Jinyuan took a fancy to him and invited him to give a lecture to Lei Zhen, of course, he was a patriotic thief who could rob the rich and help the poor!

For the sake of safety, such characters are generally alone and rarely cooperate with others, and the targets they attack are the kind of characters who are rich and unkind.

It was under the teaching of this lone thief that Lei Zhen knew how to observe the terrain, which is what they often call "stepping on a plate", how to throw stones to ask for directions, how to deal with the vicious dogs raised in the hospital, how to sneak into the destination with the smallest movement and the shortest time, and then exit quietly. Lei Zhen also knew what kind of methods these thieves used to retreat safely after they walked out of the water during the operation.

This is not an easy job, if the mansions of those rich and noble families are compared to a fortress of war, and stealing treasures or large sums of money is the goal of a military operation, this thief is definitely a veteran expert who is good at infiltration, intelligence gathering and analysis, and is proficient in tactical operations!

Xie Jinyuan even found a liar for Lei Zhen, of course, this teacher is by no means a little liar who likes to make small fights and cheat a few pocket money, but a super liar who is known as a "ghost talent" in the industry!

This ghost just saw Lei Zhen, so he gave Lei Zhen a shocking education. He wore a crisp suit, a staff of civilization in his hand, a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, and his polite but implicit pride temperament, which would make anyone think of him as a gentleman with a successful career.

"I am the deputy director of the Shanghai Chamber of Commerce, and I run a small stall, and I usually take care of the outreach work of the chamber of commerce. When the battle broke out in Shanghai last year, I was in charge of collecting anti-inflammatory drugs, morphine and other anti-war supplies for [***] in Hong Kong, and trying to find a way to transport them back, so we didn't meet. But after knowing the deeds of you and Yang Huimin's little girl from the president's mouth, I, a half-old man, can't help but extend a thumbs up to you and praise you for being a hero! ”

If he said that he was the vice president, he would probably blow the cowhide, and if he said that his position was too small, he could not get enough attention, so this big liar gave himself the position of vice director. And he talked about Lei Zhen and Yang Huimin risking their lives to send the national flag to the Sixing warehouse, and by the way, they gave a high hat, which made Lei Zhen have a good impression of him.

Speaking of which, this super liar, known as the ghost talent, first carefully checked the room where Lei Zhen studied, and after making sure that no one was monitoring or listening, Mr. Ghost Cai lowered his voice and said, "Do you know that I have been making a fuss about asking the Ministry of Industry Bureau to hand you over and extradite you to the Hongkou Concession?" Although the Ministry of Industry adheres to its neutral position and has not handed you over to Yu himself, as his influence and influence in the international community grows, the possibility of your release is getting smaller and smaller. ”

When Mr. Ghost Cai said this, he paused deliberately, and when he saw Lei Zhen nodding, he continued: "Up to now, Regiment Commander Xie and the Lone Military Battalion have become a thorn in the flesh of Yue himself, and it is said that the military department has issued an order to the Black Dragon Society to cut it off by any means and with all its might when there is no result in trying to win over Regiment Commander Xie. I think by now, there have been quite a few people with weapons who have come to the barracks to make trouble, right? ”

What Mr. Ghost Cai said is the truth, in this year, every once in a while, there will be people who hide weapons and run to the lonely army camp to make trouble, and even death squad members carrying explosives bags tried to carry out suicide attacks when Xie Jinyuan led all the officers and soldiers to gather on the battlefield to raise the spiritual flag. If it weren't for the successful interception and dismantling of the explosives package by Ma Lan, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

Lei Zhen thought about it for a long time afterwards, and then he realized how important it was for this ghost gentleman to use body language to hint to him what he was going to say. No matter how smart Lei Zhen is and how calm he is, it is absolutely impossible not to be aroused. And the series of words spoken by this ghost gentleman directly said the biggest substantive threat existing in the lonely military camp, without a trace of water, when two people consider the same issues and have the same position, no matter how withdrawn the psychology of the person will produce a feeling of like-mindedness.

"When Regiment Commander Xie had just led the troops into this barracks, our Chamber of Commerce sent representatives to communicate with Head Xie, and put forward a plan to ask the brothers in the lone barracks to sneak out of the barracks in batches with makeup, and then withdraw from the barracks and return to the army through the channels we had already opened. However, at that time, Chief Xie rejected the plan we provided on the grounds that "we have entered the concession in a dignified manner, and we will go out in a dignified manner". ”

Lei Zhen nodded again, he knew about it.

"We can all understand this decision made by Regiment Commander Xie, and we respect his noble character as a professional soldier. But now almost a year has passed, [***] is losing on the battlefield, and everywhere is full of theories of the death of the country, and wanting to go to the rental world in a dignified manner has almost become an unrealistic dream. ”

Mr. Ghost Cai was still telling the truth, so Lei Zhen couldn't help but nod.

"However, to throw a hero like Commander Xie and such an excellent professional soldier here, just to support the face of the Anti-Japanese War, is the biggest waste, and it is a disguised murder!" When Mr. Ghost Cai said this, his voice suddenly became excited, he waved his arms vigorously, and said loudly: "We all think that Commander Xie should get out of here and lead his subordinates who believe in him and are willing to follow him to break out of a bigger sky!" Win on the battlefield and win real face for us! Therefore, this time I rushed to the lone army camp in the hope of convincing Regiment Commander Xie to accept our plan and use the method of sneaking out in batches to bring the brothers to the rental world and bring them back to the army! ”

Mr. Ghost Talent Huo Ran turned his head, he stared at Lei Zhen, tears, as if he had opened the water tap, rushed out of Mr. Ghost Cai's eyes, just in the tears in his eyes, Mr. Ghost Cai's face, but there was a trace of such a happy and proud smile, he muttered: "So, I rushed here, I really didn't expect it...... I did it...... Captain Xie finally accepted our plan, and he was finally willing to break free from this cage created by using face and return to the realm he knew best......"

Speaking of this, Mr. Ghost Cai was already crying, but Lei Zhen's eyes widened suddenly.

Mr. Ghost Cai seemed to have an understanding, he took out a squarely folded white handkerchief from his suit pocket, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, barely suppressed his emotions, and said in a low voice: "Commander Xie is now receiving other visitors, it is inconvenient to withdraw immediately, and he is the supreme commander of the entire military camp, and he is the object of attention of the spies and guards." And the other officials are also more or less under surveillance, so Commander Xie asked me to find you and ask you to find a way to convey his order to the whole battalion...... Get ready to sneak out of the barracks in batches with makeup! ”

"And ......" Mr. Ghost Cai took a step forward and said with a smile: "Commander Xie wants me to tell you that his training for you will not end, but the training method will be slightly changed, so let him teach you how to become a good soldier on the real battlefield." ”

Make bold assumptions, then use communication and observation of the other party's body language to deduce answers that are close to the truth little by little, and then quickly integrate these collected information into your own lies. No matter how good Lei Zhen is, how hard he studied with Captain Xie Jinyuan, and how amazing his progress was, but in the face of such a fox who had already become a fine, he was still deceived by the other party.

When Xie Jinyuan finished receiving the visitors and looking for Lei Zhen, Lei Zhen had already tried his best to inform most of the officers and soldiers of the barracks that the whole battalion was about to withdraw from the rental area and evacuate the ghost place of the lonely military camp by sneaking out in batches through makeup. Looking at the excited eyes of those subordinates who got the news of the retreat, what else could Xie Jinyuan do besides shaking his head and smiling bitterly?

"By the way, I have a question." Xie Jinyuan asked, "Since you have completely believed the false information that Mr. Ghost Cai has sent out to you, why did you deliberately ask everyone to keep it as it is and not pack their bags when you conveyed 'my order' to everyone?" ”

Lei Zhen thought about it carefully, and after a long time, he replied: "When I was conveying the good news of my imminent withdrawal from the barracks to everyone, I saw that they were busy packing their bags, although I don't know what the reason was, I suddenly had a very uncomfortable feeling in my heart. When I was seventeen years old, I was looking for food in the forest, and it was this feeling that allowed me to avoid a cheetah lying on the top of a large tree, waiting for me to walk over and pounce on it for a fatal blow. I thought about it for a long time, but I couldn't find the source of this feeling, so I asked everyone to stay as it was, I thought it would be as if I had suddenly stopped in the forest, so that at least I would have enough time to look for the source of the danger. ”

At this moment, there was a sudden commotion outside the room, and a group of White Russian soldiers, led by the captain, forcibly rushed into the barracks of the lone barracks. Xie Jinyuan quickly walked to the window, carefully looked at the light machine guns erected on the guard tower at the four corners of the barracks, and then looked at the sudden extra group of White Russian soldiers in front of the gate of the barracks, and cold sweat rolled down from the forehead of Xie Jinyuan, a battle-hardened veteran general.

Gut feeling!

Glancing at Lei Zhen again, Xie Jinyuan's heart suddenly flashed this word, what Lei Zhen has is like a beast, instinctive intuition in the face of deadly danger!

Lei Zhen was deceived and spread false information in the lonely army camp, although it will make everyone happy, but this is not terrible, at most it makes everyone a little demoralized. But what is terrible is the spread of this false intelligence in the barracks, and the possible reaction of everyone.

If the soldiers who are like arrows are really allowed to pack their bags, once the White Russian soldiers guarding the lonely barracks find out that something is wrong, or if someone simply sends a message to them to find evidence in the barracks that the officers and soldiers of the barracks are about to "escape from prison", what should have been just an ordinary special invitation to teach will turn into a bloodshed with unimaginable consequences. Even if this accident can finally be resolved peacefully, the Ministry of Industry's supervision of the lonely military camp will become unprecedentedly strict.

At that time, even the military will find a reason to put pressure on the Ministry of Industry Bureau to "extradite" the officers and men of the lonely army battalion to the Hongkou Concession and accept their "sanctions" from the Ministry of Industry.

Xie Jinyuan pushed open the door and quickly ordered a platoon commander standing nearby: "Go and invite Mr. Ghost Talent over!" ”

A few minutes later, the platoon commander trotted all the way back and said to Xie Jinyuan: "Report, Mr. Ghost Cai has left the barracks half an hour ago!" ”

"Lei Zhen," Xie Jinyuan Huo Ran turned his head and said, "Repeat the conversation between you and that ghost genius as much as you can." Remember, if you can't remember clearly, don't say it, don't add imagination and vague speculation to make it up yourself! If there is a detail that you don't remember clearly, let me know in advance, and I'll tell you how true it is. ”

Lei Zhen knew the meaning of these words that Xie Jinyuan advised. Xie Jinyuan once did a test with Lei Zhen, Xie Jinyuan placed more than a dozen utensils of different sizes on a table in advance, and after Lei Zhen sat in front of the table for a few seconds, Xie Jinyuan suddenly asked Lei Zhen to recite at least twelve utensils on the table.

Lei Zhen recited eleven kinds of utensils at that time, and when he opened his eyes, he found that there were two kinds of utensils that he named, which were not on the table at all, but those two things were usually placed on the table.

The human eye and brain, after all, are not cameras, and it is impossible to put everything they see into their own memory. In some places, the memory is deep, and it is possible to re-draw the original pattern in the mind with your own memory, and in some places the memory is vague, at this time, people's thinking will instinctively fill in the memory, and add some pictures obtained after logical reasoning. And Lei Zhen closed his eyes, and the two utensils that came to his mind, and even their locations, were just additions to the original memory picture.

For the pursuit of accurate military intelligence, accepting such vague memories that have been filled in is a taboo among the taboos. A good intelligence officer, or a spy, will definitely undergo special training on fuzzy memories in an effort to reduce such memory errors.

Lei Zhen's memory is not bad, after doing that test, he has also been more or less trained in fuzzy memory, he recited while thinking, and memorized about ninety percent of the conversation between him and Mr. Ghost Cai.

After listening to Lei Zhen's retelling, he wiped the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve, and Xie Jinyuan let out a long sullen breath. "It's dangerous!"

Xie Jinyuan said: "That so-called ghost genius gentleman, can grasp such accurate information, and can even speculate that because I receive too many guests, I will not have too much energy to distinguish his identity, but I will recommend him to you as a special teacher, and then take advantage of your young experience is still shallow, easy to believe the shortcomings of others, implement the plan to lure us to expose our own flaws, can do this, and will do whatever it takes to do this, it is only the Iwai intelligence agency under the military department." ”

"Lei Zhen, remember everything today, both of us must remember that today we tasted defeat together!"

Xie Jinyuan patted Lei Zhen's shoulder and said in a deep voice: "We [***] are losing and retreating on the battlefield, not only because our weapons and equipment are not as good as our own army, but also because we are losing in intelligence warfare. When you really grow up to be able to lead the troops on your own, you will find that in addition to facing the frontal attack of the Japanese army, you must also prevent the intelligence agencies from attacking you from behind. To tell you the truth, I'm really glad that you were deceived today, as the so-called eating a trench grows wiser, so that at least on the battlefield in the future, you can make the soldiers around you pay less blood. ”

Lei Zhen nodded vigorously, and at this moment, there was a knock outside the door. After receiving Xie Jinyuan's response, Ma Lan pushed the door open. With a stretch of her hand, she placed a translucent plastic bottle filled with gray powder on the table. "When there was a mess in the barracks just now, two guys took the opportunity to sneak into the barracks kitchen and wanted to pour the contents of this bottle into the water tank."

Xie Jinyuan picked up the plastic bottle, and he knew without asking him that the plastic bottle must be poisonous. Once the water tank of the lone army camp is really successfully poisoned, the officers and soldiers of the entire battalion will die in this war without gunpowder. Facing Xie Jinyuan's inquiring gaze, Ma Lan casually played with a dagger that exuded the smell of blood, and said indifferently: "I asked outside the barracks just now, but it's a pity that they would rather have their blood drained than cooperate, looking at their actual combat skills and ability to resist torture to extract confessions, they must have received strict special training." If I'm not mistaken, they're supposed to be agents of the 'May' Agency's Operations Group. ”

Xie Jinyuan nodded, that ghost talent is an agent of the Iwai intelligence agency, but the Iwai intelligence agency has never participated in military operations, and only the 'Mei' agency, the highest intelligence agency in Shanghai, will have these agents who directly carry out various special operations.

"At the same time, two groups of agents from the Iwai intelligence agency and the 'Mei' agency were dispatched to formulate this set of serial plans for us, and I said that I really think that I can afford to look up to me Xie Jinyuan."

"Of course!" Ma Lan responded: "I heard a news outside these days, saying that the military has offered a price of 200,000 yuan to buy your head. If you can be brought to the Hongkou Concession alive, you can get an extra 100,000! ”

"Three hundred thousand?"

Xie Jinyuan touched his head and sighed lightly: "I can only receive less than 30 yuan of military salary a month, this 300,000 yuan can withstand my military rations for nearly a thousand years, can I sell myself myself?" Lei Zhen, as the saying goes, blue is better than blue, you are the apprentice of me and Ma Lan, and in the future, I will give you a bounty of at least 600,000! ”

"No way!" Ma Lan shook his head again and again, "We have to take into account the factor of rising prices, so let's count less, Lei Zhen, your future head bounty can reach one million, and it will be considered a standard." ”
