"Dog traitor!"

"Keep your dog's eyes open and take a look."

Ping County.

Early July.

In a slightly imposing restaurant, a middle-aged man woke up suddenly, and he subconsciously looked out the window at the gray sky, which was about dawn.

He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and breathed a long sigh of relief.

"It's a dream!"

Turn on the lights, get up, get dressed.

The gorgeous clothes and the electric lights in the house show that this person is worth a lot of money and has a high status.

After dressing and washing, the middle-aged man did not leave the room, but took out a crumpled newspaper from the drawer and slowly spread it out on the table.

It is the latest edition of Xinhua News.

On the front page, it was Grand Master Li holding a ghost head knife, and at his feet was a devil team flag.

The second edition is a news report on the attack on the highway outside Pingxian County - the 16th Regiment ambushed the devil's transport team, and the third attack killed the chief of staff and deputy chief of staff of the devil's first army.

At the end, a warning was also issued to all the devil officers - beware of the heads on the neck.

"I really killed three times in a row."

"The Yamashima Wing was actually annihilated, the Wing Captain was also killed, and the Wing Flag was captured."

As the second vice president of the Ping County Maintenance Association, the middle-aged man naturally knew that the chief of staff and the deputy chief of staff of the First Army were killed three times in a row.

But he didn't expect that the Eighth Route Army would do it all three times.

He also knew that the 29th Brigade stationed in Yangquan had suffered heavy losses recently.

But he didn't expect that the entire wing was annihilated, although the devil tried his best to cover it up, but as the president of the Ping County Maintenance Association close to Yangquan, he naturally noticed the clues, and now when he compared, he suddenly understood the facts.

"Independent regiment, Li Yunlong!"

"Maybe you can really win?"

At this time, the sky gradually brightened, the middle-aged man took a deep breath, his eyes became resolute, as if he had made a decision, he turned off the light, put away the newspaper, and originally seemed to be about to throw it away.

But after a moment's hesitation, he put the newspaper in a drawer—carefully leveled.

He then walked out of the house.

Half an hour later, several traitors and devil officers walked in with a devil officer.

"Chief of Staff."

The middle-aged man immediately praised him and spoke fluent Japanese.

Originally, he was the captain of a brigade directly under the brigade of the First Army, but after making meritorious service, he was promoted to deputy chief of staff.

As for the chief of staff, he has not yet been elected.

He had come to receive the newly arrived 27th Division.

"Serve the best dishes."

The traitor fox who came was fake and domineering, and his tone was rampant and domineering.

"Okay!"

The middle-aged man continued to bow his head and bow his waist in response,

During this period, he also took a deep look at the new deputy chief of staff, and then remembered one thing recorded in the newspaper - the Eighth Route Army had killed the chief of staff and the deputy chief of staff of the First Army three times in a row.

····

At noon on the same day.

Taiyuan.

Yoshinan Shinozuka was lying on the table, looking at the map of the Taiyue base on the table.

In order to solve the problem of law and order in the areas occupied by the First Army at the root, the core factor lies in cutting off the channels for obtaining foreign supplies on the Tuba Road.

Otherwise, even if the 386th Brigade is eliminated, there will be the next 386th Brigade.

There will be no shortage of people on the dirt road.

Although the 24,000 locust army of the 27th Division attacked the Taiyue Mountains in a mighty manner, theoretically, no matter what transportation route, it could be cut off and completely destroyed.

But Yoshio Shinozuka always had an ominous premonition in his heart.

The empire mobilized the entire North China region, and even the entire intelligence network of the Republic of China, but failed to discover the source of the Tubalu material.

Can the 27th Division really do it?

Yoshio Shinozuka thought about it carefully, the source of this uneasiness was the weapons whose manufacturing technology was clearly superior to that of the Empire, as well as the communication equipment that appeared in Pingxian, and the ultra-long-range mortars that appeared in Pingxian.

These things made him suspicious.

Are the materials that appeared in the Tubalu base area some kind of ingenious means that the empire did not think of, as the North China General Staff speculated, or are they technologies far beyond the imagination of the empire?

If it's the former, then it's okay to cut off,

But if it's the latter, then it's a big problem!

"General."

Suddenly, a staff officer ran in and spoke in a panicked tone.

"What's wrong?"

Yoshio Shinozuka felt nervous.

There doesn't seem to be much good news lately.

"Pingxian, the deputy chief of staff was poisoned in the morning!"

The staff officer replied in a nervous tone.

"Nani?"

Yoshio Shinozuka's eyes widened suddenly.

He was elected Deputy Chief of Staff just yesterday.

Dirt Eight Road again?

It's not over, can you change someone?

"Did you catch the attacker?"

Yoshio Shinozuka rubbed his forehead.

He is actually having a headache for the post of chief of staff of the First Army.

Yamamoto Kazuki once again refused to become the chief of staff, and he was indeed reluctant to let Yamamoto be the chief of staff, Yamamoto's intelligence ability is really good, and it is somewhat inappropriate to put it in the position of chief of staff of the First Army.

But he didn't expect that he would have to find another deputy chief of staff now.

"The poisoner is a vice president of the maintenance society in Ping County."

The staff officer lowered his voice at this time:

"This person opened a restaurant, poisoned the food, and he died with the deputy chief of staff, as well as several Pingxian officers, and several members of the Pingxian Maintenance Association."

"Nani!"

Yoshio Shinozuka frowned:

"This person is from the dirt eight roads?"

"There is no evidence yet."

"Moreover, this person has been rewarded by the locust army many times for cooperating with the locust army to raise supplies."

The staff officer continued to answer:

"But the Ping County Gendarmerie found the latest Xinhua newspaper on Tuba Road in this person's room."

"Xinhua News?"

Yoshio Shinozuka continued to rub his forehead.

"General."

At this time, Kazuki Yamamoto also walked in and said to Yoshio Shinozuka:

"We need to find a way to control the flow of Xinhua newspapers issued by the Eighth Route Army in the occupied areas."

"Not only us, but even the Beiping Commentary has a similar situation, some people were bewitched by the Xinhua News issued by the Eighth Route Army, launched an attack on the locust army, and a Shao Zuo was killed by the attack."

"Something happened to the Northern Review too?!"

Yoshio Shinozuka rubbed his forehead even heavier.

A few weeks earlier, Yamamoto had advised him to intensify his newspaper searches, and he had given orders, but they were not carried out very strongly.

He didn't expect that a few poorly printed newspapers would cause so much trouble.

···

Meanwhile.

The sixteenth regiment was stationed.

"This is a message from Yangquan intelligence officers."

"This morning, the chief of staff of the First Army of Devils who arrived in Pingxian County was poisoned to death by the owner of the restaurant in the process of going to a restaurant to eat, and more than a dozen devils and traitors who went with him also died."

"And this restaurant is Liao He, vice president of the Ping County Maintenance Association."

"Liao He!"

The head of the sixteenth regiment frowned.

This person he knows, is a vice president of the maintenance association, a traitor, although the act is not as extreme as other traitors, but also has done a lot of things for the devil, and the Pingxian underground organization has fought for it, but it has also been rejected, this person has always thought that there is no point in resisting.

Unexpectedly, this time he died with the devil.

"What's going on?"

The head of the regiment asked.

Could it be that some comrades have won it over?

Or, is there an internal contradiction?

"It's not clear yet."

The informant shook his head:

"I only know that the devil found a Xinhua newspaper in this person's room."

"Xinhua News!"

The commander of the sixteenth regiment was stunned.

···

"It's working!"

That night.

Headquarters.

The Deputy General Staff said excitedly:

"Boss, the effect of our propaganda is out."

"A few days ago, according to the telegram of the Northern Commentary, there was an attack on the devil near the garrison of the Devil in the Northern Assessment, and a Shaozo was killed, and it is said that the Devil later searched for a Xinhua newspaper on the warrior."

"Yesterday, under the cover of underground comrades, 18 more college students quietly left Beiping and went to our base area, and these students were also influenced by our Xinhua News."

"And this morning, the vice president of a devil maintenance association in Pingxian County, a person we call a hardcore traitor, also died with several devils."

"Okay!"

The boss was overjoyed:

"Only by arousing the will of the people of the whole country to resist can we really drive the devil out."

"So, is one and a half million silver dollars counted?"

The division commander asked suddenly.

"I've asked the Independence Regiment."

"Of course."

"Even if the chief of staff of the First Army of the devil falls to his death, or if he is killed by his own people, we can still get 1.5 million per month!"

The Deputy General Staff replied with a smile.

"Hahaha..."

The boss and the division commander burst into hearty laughter.

"However, this time the devil is afraid that the restrictions on our newspaper will be tightened."

The Deputy General Staff continued:

"In the future, it will not be so easy to transport newspapers to areas such as the North Rating."

"Moreover, according to the information of the comrades in the southern Hebei base area, the devils have also strengthened the inspection of the goods shipped to Beiping and Shimen, and the new batch of 10,000 silver dollars shipped to Beidian, of which 7,000 have been discovered by the devils."

"So much?!"

The division commander was a little distressed.

Seven thousand oceans!

Although the Eighth Route Army is really not short of oceans now, it can't help but waste it so casually.

Well?

When the division commander thought of buying another 1.5 million oceans today, he felt distressed and felt a lot less.

"We have to find a way to solve the transportation problem."

The Deputy General Staff continued:

"We need to transport the silver dollars to Beiping."

"The comrades over there have already obtained the opportunity to buy stamping machines from abroad, as well as some military machine tools, as long as they pay a batch of deposits, foreign sellers will start loading ships."

"There is also a new batch of inks and newsprint, which will cost about 150,000 silver dollars."

"It's no problem to transport back from Beiping, the devil is not strict, and the comrades in Yangquan have also opened up the transportation channel."

"But when it comes to the North Review, it can't be done at the moment."

"Looking for Li Yunlong?"

The division commander immediately proposed.

There is really no way to deal with the transportation problem in the base areas at present, and all the methods that can be thought of have been considered.

"That's what I mean."

Deputy General Staff Officer:

"It's just right, doesn't this kid want that set of printing equipment that Xinhua News Agency likes to get rid of?"

"I'll transport them by the way."
