Although Wu Zijian did not come forward to greet Liu Wumei, he actually kept his ears open to listen to the movements of the 7th company commander; Wei Xin, who understood the deputy battalion commander's thoughts, made up an excuse to sneak out in the middle of the banquet and went to the battalion headquarters to briefly report to Wu Zijian.

"Deputy battalion commander, then this Liu Wumei, do you see it or not?" Because he failed to persuade his sister-in-law to accept the reorganization of the Eighth Route Army, the commander of the 7th Company seemed quite cramped and uneasy.

After hesitating for a moment, Wu Zijian finally decided to give up the meeting: the Black Rock Cliff bandits had exchanged fire with the Second Battalion twice, and although the latter time was provoked by his own side, they all caused casualties to the Second Battalion after all; If it weren't for the sake of preparing to co-opt them, he would definitely not stop there. Although their big boss took the initiative to visit today, he showed his unwillingness to accept the adaptation for the time being, and in this case, as the current top military commander of the second battalion, Wu Zijian would be too disrespectful to meet Liu Wumei again.

"Didn't you ask this righteous sister of yours, why do you always have to go to Wencheng? Are there any relatives or significant people there? ”

"I asked, Liu Wumei said that it was too boring to nest in the cottage, and there was a cousin next to her, who was a big girl, and she was always asking her to go to Wencheng to wander around."

Wu Zijian touched the meaning of Wei Xin's words and nodded slowly.

When the leader of the female bandits left Xiping Village, Wei Xin deliberately walked side by side with Liu Wumei and opened a short distance from others, and he whispered to his righteous sister: Pay special attention to the every move of the black donkey of the three masters, and strictly prevent him from forming a gang in the cottage and plotting to mutiny. Liu Wumei looked at her brother-in-law gratefully, saying that she had taken it to heart.

"Big brother, don't blame the little sister for talking too much, is there going to be a war over there in Wencheng?" At the moment when she was about to break up, Liu Wumei suddenly whispered such a sentence.

The company commander of the Eighth Route Army stared at the other party's flickering pair of wonderful eyes, forcibly suppressed the urge to tell the truth, and just said meaningfully: Go and go back quickly.

Until Liu Wumei and his entourage walked away, Wei Xin was still secretly blaming himself, he could only pray silently, hoping that the righteous sister could understand the words of his words and not stay in Wencheng. This upcoming war, although it is not a direct attack on Wencheng, but according to the battle plan, the 391st Regiment of the Central Army is ready to lure and annihilate the Japanese reinforcements from Wencheng, if the Japanese suffer a big loss, they will definitely strengthen the vigilance of Wencheng, Liu Wumei They carry guns with them, once they are searched out by the Japanese army, they will inevitably encounter a catastrophe.

At this moment, Wencheng seems to be quite calm. It's been a while since the attack on the inaugural celebration of the town hall, and the wind on the streets is noticeably less tense. In addition, the sections from Taiyuan to Wencheng and Wencheng to Linfen of the Nantongpu Railway have been opened to civilian traffic, and this large station on the railway line has resumed its former prosperity and liveliness.

In the evening, as soon as Liu Wumei and the others entered the city, they felt this prosperous and lively atmosphere.

In Baoyuan Restaurant, this atmosphere has been strengthened. Entering through the back door from the alley behind the restaurant, the second shopkeeper in charge of the kitchen had sharp eyes and quick legs, and he strode up to greet the big boss with a smile. In addition to the hired chefs and guys in the restaurant, there are five people who belong to the Black Rock Cliff Cottage, Bai Baoyuan, the shopkeeper, the second shopkeeper in charge of the kitchen, the third shopkeeper in charge of the store, and two small minions who look after the store. The second shopkeeper led Liu Wumei into the store on the first floor, and said happily: Tonight is full!

The habit of the female bandit leader in the restaurant is that she must not affect the business, she only eats and drinks in the idle private room, and when it is full like tonight, she will go to her own special room behind the upstairs warehouse. Bai Baoyuan, who rushed to hear the news, instructed the kitchen to hurry up and cook according to the favorite taste of the big boss, but Liu Wumei, who was tired from the journey, said with a smile that she was not in a hurry, and she would answer the guests of the restaurant first.

Bai Baoyuan excitedly told the gratifying situation that after the opening of the railway line from Taiyuan to Wencheng, the restaurant business has reached a new level, and told the big boss that the railway line from these two astronomical cities to Linfen has also been opened to traffic, but because there is still a war in the south, there are not many passenger cars and civilian trucks in the direction of Linfen here, which are mainly used by the Japanese army to transport front-line materials, and it is estimated that after the end of the war, the situation on the railway will get better and better.

"If the war is really over, it is estimated that Yan Laoxi's army will be completely driven out of Shanxi, and we will really become the world of the Japanese."

Liu Wumei answered in a flat tone, which suddenly made Bai Baoyuan's expression embarrassed. The master on the side immediately said with a grin, no matter whose world it is, we can live our own small life. Cousin Xiaoju began to quarrel and be hungry, and said not without pickiness that the meal eaten at the Eighth Route Army at noon was too ordinary, and she had to make up for dinner early.

Bai Baoyuan was taken aback, he didn't know about the changes that had occurred in the cottage during this time, and the master described it to him concisely.

"Big boss, what is the origin of the Eighth Route Army? Are they really going to stay in the area of Guanmen Mountain for a long time? The main force of the Central Army on the south side of the railway line could not withstand the Japanese, how long could the Eighth Route Army of several hundred people become a climate? Let's not fall for them. ”

The female bandit leader was worried about this matter, so she simply changed her conversation and began to inquire about the current situation of the ruffian leader Meng Longsheng. Since hearing that this guy defected to the Japanese and became the detective captain, Liu Wumei's determination to clean him up has become stronger: he deserves to die if he molests and insults himself and his cousin on the street, and he deserves to be killed if he is a traitor!

Bai Baoyuan, who was deeply disapproving, glanced at the master with his eyes, hoping that the other party would dissuade the big boss, and told everyone on the other hand: Meng Longsheng is now crowded, and the members of the detective team are all wearing short guns, and when they travel, they hug each other, and it is extremely difficult to find an opportunity to clean him up. If it doesn't work, the Japanese will also stand up for him, and it may even affect the safety of the restaurant.

The master immediately agreed, thinking that now is indeed not the right opportunity to move Meng Longsheng, it is not too late for the gentleman to take revenge for ten years, as long as this guy is still messing around in Wencheng, there will always be a day to clean him up.

Liu Wumei's body swelled with anxiety, looking at the beautiful cousin next to her, and then recalling the scene of their sisters being molested during the Spring Festival, she couldn't help but yell at the master and Bai Baoyuan:

"Are there any men in the Black Rock Cliff? It's just that the green forest that robbed the house didn't bully others, but our woman's family was bullied, so we had to swallow our anger, didn't we? ! That bastard who doesn't know whether to live or die still runs to the restaurant from time to time to eat and drink for nothing, can you bear all this?! ”

Seeing that the situation was not good, the shopkeeper of the restaurant hurriedly accompanied him in a low voice, stating that this revenge would be avenged, but he needed to be allowed to think about it a few more times and find a foolproof strategy, which did not require the personal risk of the big boss, nor would he be involved in the restaurant.

Speaking of this, Bai Baoyuan lowered his voice, and instead talked about several dealings with the suspicious businessman Li Yan and the female manager, and concluded that the other party was most likely an anti-Japanese element, so he was active in the Wencheng area; Moreover, Meng Longsheng, who is the captain of the detective team, also revealed in the restaurant that they were chasing an anti-Japanese organization called the Blue Coat Society. Bai Baoyuan judged that the suspicious businessmen were likely to be the Blue Coat Society.

The female bandit leader had seen the suspicious businessmen and women, but she had never heard of the name of the Blue Coat Society, so she had an impatient look on her face. But then Bai Baoyuan analyzed that the people of the Blue Coat Society should be subordinates of Chairman Jiang's National Government, and their background is also high, and it is said that they are also very capable; If the detective team and the captain Meng Menglongsheng are bent on arresting the members of the Blue Coat Society, they may set themselves on fire. At that time, the big boss could watch the fire from the other side, waiting for the people of the Blue Coat Society to clean up Meng Longsheng.

In Liu Wumei's mind, the beautiful manager she saw in the restaurant last time gradually appeared - she really looked away, that gorgeously dressed woman, could it be that she was a subordinate of the Nationalist Government who was working against the Japanese? ! Their people openly found the restaurant and tacitly agreed with the second master, which can be regarded as fearless. If Meng Longsheng made a confrontation with them, it would definitely not be a fortunate thing for this ruffian!

The wine and food are served, let go of these troublesome things, there is wine today and drunk tomorrow - the female bandit leader and her men began to drink.

A few hours ago, a special guest came to Baoyuan Restaurant, his public identity was the Chen shopkeeper of Cheng Ruixiang, a newly opened silk village in Wencheng, who asked for two simple appetizers, hugged a small pot of Fenjiu, and slowly drank for a noon; As I drank, I listened attentively to the news spread by the diners in the scattered seats. After eating and drinking, Shopkeeper Chen carefully packed and took away the few remaining appetizers. After leaving the restaurant, he slowly rushed back to the silk village storefront, where a handsome young man was waiting for him: the chief and deputy captains of the enemy engineering team of the second battalion of the Xu Brigade of the Eighth Route Army Forest Division, began to deliberate.

Xiao Junping sent his deputy captain Chen Xuanzhu to Baoyuan Restaurant, just to find out about the situation in the city from that well-informed place. He himself was stationed in Wencheng with the headquarters of the 12th Brigade of the Jin Army, and it was not appropriate to show his face for the sake of prudence. But at noon, Chen Xuanzhu failed to bring back any valuable news, but kept complaining that the cost in the restaurant was too expensive and not worth it.

The battalion headquarters at the foot of Guanmen Mountain had just sent someone over to convey two information to the intelligence station under Wencheng. First, the 391st Regiment of the Central Army plans to carry out a sabotage operation in the vicinity of Lingshi County of the Nantongpu Railway in the near future, and the 2nd Battalion of the Xu Brigade is responsible for covering its flank; Second, the Otsuka Wing of the Japanese Army recently carried out a surprise sweep of villages in the lower reaches of the Qinglong River in a car, and the motive was unknown. Based on this, the battalion headquarters asked the Wencheng Intelligence Station to focus on collecting the recent movements of the Japanese garrison and report it as soon as possible.

The captain of the enemy worker suddenly felt a huge pressure!
