Chapter 515: The First Wave of Assassinations

Zhao Gang was still a little worried, and said: "Xiao Wang, I know that you are highly skilled, and idlers are not your opponents at all, but as the old saying goes, open guns are easy to dodge, and hidden arrows are difficult to prevent." ”

Wang Ye smiled: "But there is an old saying, that evil does not prevail over good. ”

Zhao Gang said: "Of course, it is true that evil does not prevail over good, from the perspective of human history, justice will eventually defeat evil, but when it comes to a specific period, it may not be." ”

"You just talk about the current War of Resistance Against Japan,"

"The Japanese devils still have the upper hand."

"To be more specific, this trip to Qiulin Town is no less than going into the Longtan Tiger's Den alone."

After a pause, Zhao Gang said again: "Xiao Wang, the killers of the military commander and the Japanese army's special high school are all masters in this, and all kinds of assassination methods are endless, and you are invincible on the battlefield, but this does not mean that you can block the various tricks of these killers, such as poisoning, they can poison and kill people invisibly!" ”

"Really?" Wang Ye said expectantly, "Political commissar, when you say this, I'm really looking forward to it, really, I really want to try what it's like to be precarious and be killed at any time?" ”

"Huh? This! Zhao Gang was speechless for a moment, and said in his heart, do you want to be so arrogant?

Wang Ye still had a look of inadequacy, as if he was telling Zhao Gang that he really wanted someone to beat me.

"Well, I know I can't tell you." Zhao Gang said helplessly, "Then you bring more good hands, or take the entire Heavenly Wolf Brigade to Qiulin Town." ”

"No, you don't." Wang Ye waved his hand and said, "This time I went to Qiulin Town to fight in the dark, and there were not many people. ”

After a pause, Wang Ye said again: "Just let Duan Peng, Lin Han, and Li Xia and the three of them follow me, and then let Lao Sun transfer a cavalry company to escort the devil prisoners of war." ”

Zhao Gang said: "A cavalry company is too little, right?" ”

"Commissar, a cavalry company is enough." Wang Ye said, "You don't know, the Japanese have a characteristic, they were wolves before they were captured, but once they were captured, they immediately became dogs, and their obedience was better than they imagined." ”

"Okay, then you can go and tell Sun Desheng yourself." Zhao Gang nodded, opened the notebook again, tore off a small piece of paper, took out a pen and wrote down a name, and then wrote two sentences.

Wang Ye looked at it fixedly, and saw that the name written was Peng Jiguang.

The first sentence is: Listening to Peng Gong's accent, it seems that he is from Gangcheng, Suzhou Province?

The second sentence is: I am a native of Pucheng, Jin Province, but I lived in Gangcheng in Sioux Province for a few months when I was a child.

Seeing these two inexplicable words, I knew that it was a code word of the joint, needless to say, this Peng Jiguang must be an underground party intelligence officer who broke into the Taiyuan Arsenal.

After showing Wang Ye a look, Zhao Gang asked, "Xiao Wang, do you remember?" ”

Wang Ye has an almost unforgettable ability, and immediately nodded: "Remember." ”

Zhao Gang struck a match and lit the piece of paper, and said: "The information that the Japanese army's special high class and the military commander want to attack you is sent by this comrade, and you will look for him after you arrive in Qiulin Town." ”

Wang Ye said with a smile: "It seems that this comrade of our party has a high status in the military command? ”

Speaking of this, he added: "Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to know the news that the Japanese army's special high school is going to attack me." ”

Zhao Gang's forehead immediately floated three black lines, and he said angrily: "I said Xiao Wang, can you spend more energy thinking about the enemy and what your comrades are doing?" ”

Wang Ye smiled and said: "Political commissar, isn't the motto of the secret front suspicious of everything? ”

"You doubt our own comrades?" Zhao Gang's expression immediately became serious, and he said in a deep voice, "Xiao Wang, it's not wrong to doubt everything, but it is absolutely not allowed to doubt your comrades indiscriminately. ”

"No, Commissar, you misunderstood what I meant." Wang Ye hurriedly said, "I'm not suspicious of my comrades, I just said this just now, and I think our comrades are very powerful." ”

"Of course." Zhao Gang's face immediately showed a touch of pride, and he said, "Speaking of which, when I was in Yanjing, I also fought on the party's secret front for a while, so I was fortunate to come into contact with some comrades of the underground party, which was really the elite part of our party, and concentrated the best talents of our party. ”

"They are also the most honorable people." Wang Ye said.

"Yes." Zhao Gang's face showed sadness, "There are many comrades, for various reasons, until they sacrifice, they can't disclose their identities, and can only bravely serve in the spitting of their compatriots with stigma, and they have truly done it for this country and this nation, regardless of their personal reputation." ”

"So I'm looking forward to this trip to Autumnwood." Wang Ye said solemnly, "Because I have the opportunity to fight side by side with these most respectable comrades, I will cherish this short time together." ”

……

Early the next morning, Wang Ye took Duan Peng, Lin Han and Li Xia to cross the Yellow River from Wanmadu.

As for the devil prisoners of war and the cavalry company in charge of escorting, they had to divert from northern Jin to Hetao and then enter northern Shaanxi, which was probably many days slower than Wang Ye and them.

The reason why it is so troublesome is because Wanmadu is only a very small ferry.

The Yellow River near Wanmadu is turbulent, and although it is not as exaggerated as the Hukou section of the Yellow River, it is not far away.

Therefore, only the most experienced old man dares to ferry, and he can only ferry small boats, and large ships are absolutely impossible.

According to normal practice, Wang Ye should go with Fan Guandu's cavalry company through the defense area of the Sui Army to the headquarters of the Second World War Zone in Qiulin Town, northern Shaanxi.

But Wang Ye didn't do that.

Wang Ye decided to take Duan Peng and a few of them to Qiulin Town to set up a reception office first.

This move was nominally to receive and screen the engineering and technical personnel handed over by the Chief's Department to see if there were any impostors deliberately planted by Yan Xishan, but in fact, Wang Ye did this to lure the snake out of the hole.

To put it bluntly, he used himself as a bait to find out the devils, military commanders, central commanders, and spies of the Jin Suijun army lurking among the engineers and technicians, and only in this way could the safety of the industrial zone be ensured.

Otherwise, as long as there is a lurking agent among the engineering and technical personnel, it will be very troublesome.

Because the destructiveness of engineers and technicians is staggering, they only need a small action to cause serious damage to an entire industrial area.

In order to give these spies enough time and a chance to do something, Wang Yecai only took Duan Peng and four others to cross the Yellow River from Wanmadu to the south.

Qiulin Town, where the headquarters of the prefect of the Second World War Zone is located, is still south of Yan'an.

Therefore, after Wang Ye and the others crossed the Yellow River, they had to go south for more than 300 kilometers, and they had to pass through Yan'an in the middle.

Wang Ye really wanted to visit this revolutionary holy place, and if possible, he also wanted to meet the chairman, but unfortunately he had an important task on his shoulders, so he could only wait for the opportunity to go later.

I traveled lightly all the way to the south, and the next day I crossed Yulin to Mizhi.

Li Xia hit his horse to catch up with Wang Ye and said: "Captain, from now on, you must be vigilant, killers from the special high class, military commanders, and even the Jin Sui Army may appear at any time." ”

Lin Han asked curiously, "Why do you want to start now?" ”

Li Xia said: "Because the killers of the Japanese army's special high class, military commanders, or Jin Suijun are not everywhere, especially in poor and remote areas like northern Shaanxi, it is even more impossible, so it has to be transferred from other places, which takes time, it has been two days and nights since the captain released the news, and the killers from all sides can almost be deployed to the vicinity of Mizhi and Suide, if we come a few days later, maybe even Yulin County will have their killers." ”

Lin Han said: "So that's the case, I have a long knowledge." ”

Duan Peng immediately turned his gaze to the bare dirt bags on both sides.

While holding the awning in his hand and observing intently, Duan Peng asked again: "Captain, and Lao Li, do you think there will be snipers on the dirt bags on both sides?" ”

Wang Ye and Li Xia hadn't answered yet, but Lin Han was not happy.

"Duan Peng, you asked the captain and Lao Li, why didn't you ask me?" Lin Han snorted, "How much do you look down on me in your dog's heart?" ”

"Ask you?" Duan Peng said suddenly, "I asked you if it was useful, but you didn't understand." ”

"." Lin Han said angrily, "The surname is Duan, from today onwards, we are no longer brothers, pay back, you borrowed a dollar from me last month to pay back." ”

Duan Peng said: "If you don't want money, you won't give it if you want your life." ”

Lin Han said angrily: "Hey, isn't this a scoundrel on your dog day?" ”

"I'm going to be a scoundrel." Duan Peng said with a smile, "You have the ability to fight me." ”

"Captain and Lao Li, you all heard it, this is his own request, I have never seen such a strange request in my life." Lin Han had already pounced on his horse as he spoke, and he was in a mess with Duan Peng.

Wang Ye and Li Xia ignored it, and continued to walk forward on their own horses.

Along the way, Duan Peng and Lin Han would always have conflicts for various reasons, and there was hardly a moment when they stopped, they were used to it.

Li Xia said: "Captain, what Duan Peng just said is actually right, although northern Shaanxi is all bare loess bags, if there are really snipers ambushing, I am afraid it will be difficult to avoid our eyes, but we are not afraid of ten thousand, just in case, in case of a specially trained master, we may not be able to find out in time." ”

"Well, what you say makes sense, you still have to be careful." Wang Ye thought so.

After speaking, Wang Ye pulled up the scarf around his neck and covered his face.

At this time, the soil erosion in northern Shaanxi is extremely serious, and the wind and sand are very strong in any season, so travelers will prepare a scarf to cover the wind and sand.

Li Xia also pulled up the scarf and covered his face.

At this time, no one can see the looks of Wang Ye and Li Xia clearly.

After a while, Lin Han and Duan Peng also finished fighting, and then pulled up the scarf to cover their faces.

Four people and four horsemen, lined up in a column to the south, while observing the bare loess bags on both sides of the highway, and quietly and secretly observing the colorful people passing by on the highway.

……

Before I knew it, it was noon.

Wang Ye found a shady place on the side of the highway and dismounted to rest.

Duan Peng and Lin Han led the war horse to the shade of the tree, one to feed the war horse with beans and the other with water.

Wang Ye and Li Xia each sat under an old elm tree and continued to observe the travelers who were hurrying against the sun.

It was already the beginning of June, and the weather was already very hot, so the journey at noon was very hard, and the traveling merchants were all sweating profusely.

"Captain, here."

Li Xia suddenly said in a low voice.

Hearing Li Xia's words, Duan Peng and Lin Han also subconsciously wanted to look back.

But before the two of them turned back, Li Xia stopped: "Duan Peng, Lin Han, don't look back, prepare to catch the mouth." ”

Lin Han and Duan Peng continued to feed the horses, but while feeding the horses, they still put down the backpack on their bodies without a trace, and they wanted to catch the live mouth, naturally the less weight the better.

Wang Ye set his eyes on a caravan in front of him.

It wasn't really a caravan, it was just a mule cart.

In addition to one of the drivers who drove the car, there were two escorts who followed behind.

However, Wang Ye didn't see anything wrong with the mule cart and the three people.

Li Xia whispered: "Captain, pay attention to that mule cart, what is the difference between it and other big carts?" ”

was reminded by Li Xia like this, Wang Ye really found out, and said: "The wheels are different, the rubber wheels used in this mule cart should have been unloaded from the motorcycle, so the owner of this mule cart has a military background?" ”

"Not really." Li Xia said, "The Kuomintang army often resells all kinds of materials, and motorcycles and car wheels are one of them, so as long as they can afford a large price, they can buy all kinds of tires from the black market." ”

Wang Ye looked at the mule cart again, and after a moment said, "I know, the load is very light!" ”

"Yes." Li Xia bowed his head slightly, and said approvingly, "The rubber tires of this mule cart are almost not deformed, which means that the goods on it are very light, which is very abnormal." ”

"Because the rubber wheel is much stronger than the wooden wheel."

"Therefore, the carrying capacity of the rubber-wheeled cart is also much larger than that of the wooden-wheeled cart."

After a pause, Li Xia said again: "So the foot merchant spent a lot of money to buy a rubber wheel, it is impossible to let it be empty, no matter how round trip, it will definitely fill the mule cart." ”

A smile appeared at the corner of Wang Ye's mouth.

Then quietly gave the battle order: "Ready." ”

In a short time, the mule cart was more than twenty meters away.

This distance is already very close, and you can hear the other party's breathing.

Shooting at this distance, as long as you have played with guns, it is difficult not to hit.

Sure enough, the mule cart, which had been good, suddenly went wrong, and a sack fell from the cart onto the road.

The two men escorting the car cursed, and at the same time bent down and turned around, looking as if they were about to lift the sack that had fallen to the ground, but in fact they didn't really want to lift the sack.

The moment they turned around, the two of them pulled out their pistols from their waists in a flash of lightning.

However, someone was faster than them, and before the two of them could shoot and fire, the gunshots were already ringing out first.

After only two snaps, the two men had already fallen in a pool of blood, and both of them were shot in the back of the head and killed on the spot.

It was Wang Ye and Li Xia who shot, and almost at the same time as the two of them were shooting, Lin Han and Duan Peng, who were closer to the road, had already pounced on the only surviving driver like lightning.

The driver was also quick to react, and immediately reached for the wheel.

However, it was still too late, and before the coachman could pull his hand out of the wheel, Lin Han and Duan Peng had already rushed to the coachman's front, holding the coachman's arms left and right.

When Li Xia saw it, he hurriedly reminded: "Don't grab your arm and pinch his chin!" ”

Lin Han and Duan Peng woke up like a dream, and quickly reached out to pinch the coachman's chin.

However, it was too late, and I saw the coachman's chin move, as if he had bitten something open.

When Wang Ye and Li Xia also rushed forward, they saw that the coachman had already fallen into a severe coma.

Wang Ye immediately ordered Lin Han and Duan Peng to be on guard, and at this time, the merchants on the highway had already dispersed, and only a few of them were left within a few hundred meters of each other.

Li Xia squatted down and reached out to pinch the driver's mouth.

Just after a glance, Li Xia shook his head and said, "Potassium cyanide, highly poisonous, there is no help." ”

Wang Ye searched the two killers as quickly as he could, but found nothing.

Wang Ye didn't give up, and when he wanted to search his body again, he was stopped by Li Xia, Li Xia said: "Captain, don't search, these are two killers, who are specifically responsible for assassination, and it is impossible for them to leave any clues." ”

Wang Ye gave up the body search, and asked Li Xia again: "Can you see which person it is?" ”

"It's the killer of the special police department of the Jin Sui Army." Li Xia said without thinking, "The Japanese army's special high class, military command, and central command are still a bit of a standard, such an assassination without technical content can only be done by the killers of the special police department of the Jin Sui army, but it may not be an order from the special police department of the Jin Sui army." ”

"I know that." Wang Ye said with a smile, "Yan Laoxi's level of economic engagement is still very good, and his level of military engagement is barely okay, but engaging in spy politics is rubbish, and his special police department has been infiltrated into a sieve by the Japanese army's special high school, military command, and central command from the beginning, right?" ”

Li Xia smiled and said, "Captain, you're right. ”

Smiling, Wang Ye said again: "Li Xia, maybe there is only one group of people we have to deal with this time." ”

Li Xia said: "Captain, do you mean that this group of people is not only the people of the military command and the central command, but also the people of the special high school of the Japanese army, or the people of the special police department of the Jinsui army?" So it's the same group of people? ”

Wang Ye asked, "Do you think this is possible?" ”

Li Xia said: "I don't think this possibility can be ruled out. ”

Wang Ye turned his gaze to the south and said with a smile: "If the killers they send next are still only of this level, it will be too disappointing and not a little challenging. ”

"Captain, I'm afraid you're going to be disappointed." Li Xia said with a smile, "No matter how powerful a killer is, can he be more powerful than you?" Although the work of this wave of killers is a little rough, the level is actually not bad, just because we were very unlucky to meet us, if this is changed to another target, there is a chance that it has been killed by this group of killers. ”

After a pause, Li Xia said again: "So no matter how powerful the killer is, it won't be much more powerful, and I think there is a high probability that there will be no more killers who will intercept and kill halfway, because when they come, they are just sending them to death, and the special police department of the Jin Sui Army sent this team of killers, probably just to try their luck." ”

"Really?" Wang Ye said.

"That's boring."
