The train finally stopped at Zhangzhou Railway Station, Ke Yiming and Wang Donghai stepped off the train and walked towards the exit of the station. The two stand shoulder to shoulder, like a pair of old friends.

Ke Yiming asked as he walked: "Mr. Wang, where did you learn such good skills?" ”

"I'm ashamed to say that when I was young, I often went hunting in the mountains with my father, haunted the mountains, and practiced a good figure, and then went to Putuo Mountain in South Shaolin to practice boxing and kicking for a few years, and learned some boxing skills, which is not enough to worry about." Wang Donghai briefly introduced the past to Ke Yiming.

Ke Yiming: "Brother Wang is too modest, you have such good skills, the current war is in chaos, it is the opportunity to use people, it is a pity that my brother is not a soldier!" ”

"Could it be that Mr. Ke was born in the army?" Wang Donghai asked.

Ke Luansheng looked around, lowered his voice and said: If you talk about it, I can be regarded as a martial arts background. Do you know Zhang Zhen, the commander of the 49th Division, I was his adjutant before. After Zhang Zhen led the troops into Zhangzhou, he was defeated by a strong enemy, and after the defeat and retreat, I retired to Zhangzhou and Yongxi and opened a small shop to sell salt.......

In Ke Yiming's conversation, he concealed to Wang Donghai that he went to Lushan for training in 1936, was sent to the Xiamen Station of the Military Command to lurk, and secretly served as the leader of the Zhangzhou Group of the South Station of the Military Command in 1937.

Ke Yiming's extraordinary experience made Wang Donghai's mouth open wide in surprise.

Wang Donghai couldn't help but say happily: I'll just say, Brother Ke doesn't look like a simple person, please take care of Brother Ke in the future!

Ke Yiming listened to it and said with a humble face: "I can't talk about caring for it, but we are all fallen people at the end of the world, and we should help each other to tide over the difficulties together in the future." ”。

Wang Donghai couldn't help but nod.

Ke Yiming said with a pleasant face: "Since we have fate, I have a sentence I want to tell you, I don't know if to say it or not?" ”

Wang Donghai said with a sincere look of fear: "Please speak." ”

Ke Yiming continued: "I think you are a person with a 'personality' and a 'understanding', behind your calm and meticulous hidden worries about the world and saving the people, forging ahead, punishing evil and promoting goodness, now our nation is in war and chaos, the Japanese invaded, the mountains and rivers are broken, the people are not living, we are born in troubled times, born as a hero, and die as a ghost, why not turn the cry and sorrow hidden in the heart into practical action?" ”

Wang Donghai heard his voice, and hurriedly said: "Mr. Ke doesn't know, I have long had this intention, but my family has no contact with the military and the government, I have the ambition to serve the country, but there is no way to serve the country!" ”

Ke Yiming pointed to the maze and said: "There are thousands of ways to serve the country, why be limited to fighting on the battlefield or being an official in the government, according to my opinion, your talent and ability, and your skills and character, why not be a lone warrior in an invisible battlefield behind enemy lines." ”

Invisible battlefields behind enemy lines, lone warriors? Wang Donghai suddenly realized, and he hurriedly asked again: Are you talking about agents, penetrating behind enemy lines, spying on confidential information from the enemy, or spies who carry out assassination and sabotage activities and work for the country and the government?

Ke Yiming nodded.

Wang Donghai instantly hesitated again.

"What's the matter, Brother Wang is scared?" Ke Yiming asked suspiciously.

"No, it's not!" He asked in a low voice, "Brother Ke, I'...... I'm afraid I don't have this ability, I heard that this kind of profession can't be tried and failed! ”

Ke Yiming nodded: Being an agent is a dangerous profession, but also an indispensable profession, although as an agent can not personally go to the battlefield to fight with the enemy, the information obtained and provided behind the scenes can effectively avoid more casualties of their own team, can enable officers and soldiers to kill more enemies on the battlefield, and even affect the victory and defeat and the change of strength and the trend of the battlefield.

He paused and then said: Do you still remember the First Sino-Japanese naval battle between the Qing government's Beiyang Naval Division and Japan?

Wang Donghai nodded.

Ke Yiming went on to say: It was in this war, after the annihilation of the Beiyang Naval Division, that the Qing Dynasty government was forced by the military pressure of Japanese militarism to sign the "Treaty of Shimonoseki" with it, and then the world powers set off a frenzy to carve up China.

Wang Donghai listened quietly.

Ke Yiming said with emotion: One of the reasons why Japan has the confidence to launch this war is that Japan has carried out a series of espionage activities in China, and Oriental spies have spied on countless military intelligences that can be called the lifeblood of the Qing court. It was precisely because of this precious information that the Japanese army behaved fearlessly when it launched the First Sino-Japanese War. In July 1894, Li Hongzhang requisitioned three British merchant ships, carrying 2,500 Qing Dynasty sailors, and sent three ships "Jiyuan", "Guangyi" and "Caojiang" to escort them. Just when Li Hongzhang was making intensive plans, Japanese spies had already infiltrated the command center in Tianjin, and they had their every move in Dagukou under their sight. According to the "Sheng Xuanhuai Archives," the Japanese spies "knew all the information about the total number of troops carried by the three requisitioned British merchant ships, the salaries of the fleet, which officer escorted them, and when and where they went." This information, which was enough to affect the trend of the First Sino-Japanese War, was transmitted by these Japanese spies to the Japanese General Staff Headquarters through telegrams, which became one of the important reasons for the defeat of the Beiyang Naval Division in the First Sino-Japanese Naval Battle."

Ke Yiming paused, and said with emotion: "If the Qing government could also have its own high-IQ spy personnel who knew the Japanese warships well, the fate of the Beiyang Naval Division would not have been so tragically destroyed."

Wang Donghai listened to some of it, and couldn't help but be moved.

Ke Yiming went on to say: To this day, I will never forget that the Japanese invaded our Xiamen Island by sea and land, and the officers and men of our 75 th Division rose up to resist, and many officers and men bravely met the enemy, but were flanked by the Japanese army in front and back, and suffered from the enemy on their backs. But no one fled, no one surrendered. Eventually, they ran out of ammunition and food, and all of them were killed.

Wang Donghai stopped after hearing this, and he said solemnly: Brother Ke, I will listen to your arrangement.
