"Captain, it's me."
The voice of the communication platoon leader Ma Jing came from outside.
Cai Zhengze nodded at Cai Zhengqi and signaled him to open the door.
Ma Jing is his confidant, and Cai Zhengze still trusts him quite a bit.
"Tongzhang." Ma Jing entered the door and saw that there were only Cai Zhengze and Cai Zhengqi in the room. He did not find it strange. Tuanzhang and Company Commander Cai are cousins, so he is naturally closest.
"What's the matter?" Cai Zhengze asked.
"The Japanese slaughtered Shapu." Ma Jing whispered.
"What?" Cai Zhengze suddenly stood up, "What's going on?"
"Shapu has a maintenance meeting. I guess some ordinary people did not escape after listening to the maintenance meeting." Ma Jing said, "Oda Yuyiru buried all the more than 20 ordinary people who stayed in the village alive."
...
"Bastard, beast!" Cai Zhengqi suddenly stood up, extremely angry, and said with gritted teeth.
"Shut up." Cai Zhengze glared at his cousin fiercely.
"And that's right." Ma Jing pretended not to hear Cai Zhengqi's words and continued, "I just received a notice from Ota Brigade that the first battalion was called by them."
"What does it mean?" Cai Zhengze's face darkened, "What does it mean that the first camp was called by them?"
"That's it, that's what it means." Ma Jing said, "The Japanese asked the First Battalion to go to Shapu to meet with them. After receiving the Japanese order, Battalion Commander Zhao led the brothers of the First Battalion to Shapu."
"Bastard!" Cai Zhengze suddenly slapped the table, "What did Zhao Yongrui want to do? Without my order, he led the team to move to the camp without authorization."
"There is no order from the group, but it's enough if there are orders from the Japanese." Cai Zhengqi said quietly from the side.
"Roun, should you send your brothers to the first battalion? Find Battalion Commander Zhao to ask about the situation?" Ma Jing asked carefully.
"Forget it." Cai Zhengze shook his head helplessly and said, "The Japanese have done this. They are the king of heaven, what else can they do?"
"The team, there's nothing wrong, then I'll go out." Ma Jing said.
Cai Zhengze waved his hand.
...
Cai Zhengqi stood at the door and watched Ma Jing leave before he quickly closed the door.
"Brother, the situation is not good." Cai Zhengqi said to Cai Zhengze seriously, "Did the Japanese smell anything?"
Cai Zhengze's 15th Regiment has units directly under the regiment headquarters and three infantry battalions.
In this sweep, according to the Japanese military arrangements, the third battalion was left at its garrison, with only the first battalion, and the second battalion and most of the regiment headquarters were dispatched.
Now, the Japanese suddenly transferred the sudden battalion, which made Cai Zhengqi not worried or suspicious.
"What have you said to Zhao Yongrui?" Cai Zhengze asked immediately.
"Nothing said clearly," said Cai Zhengqi, "just pretending to be drunk and complained."
He said to Cai Zhengze, "Although it is an excessive thing, it will not make Zhao Yongrui suspect that we are going to raise the flag."
"Who asked you to say those words to Zhao Yongrui?!" Cai Zhengze asked angrily, "Didn't I say that, even if I want to move, only the Second Battalion is reliable."
Although Cai Zhengze is the leader of the 15th Regiment, the only one he can actually trust is the Second Battalion. Duan Feiyang, the commander of the Second Battalion, is like him. Both are from the Jiangsu Security Group and are fellow villagers.
Such a relationship also made Cai Zhengze and Duan Feiyang naturally close.
Therefore, Duan Feiyang's second camp is Cai Zhengze's absolute confidant and the foundation for him to gain a foothold in the 15th Regiment.
As for the First Battalion and Third Battalion, Sun Fei, the commander of the Third Battalion, was a member of the brigade commander Hu Delin, and was very loyal to Hu Delin. This time, he was afraid of bad things in the Third Battalion. Out of precaution, Cai Zhengze followed the Japanese arrangements and left the Third Battalion at the station.
The battalion commander Zhao Yongrui and Cai Zhengze have always been trying to win over this person. However, this is an old man who speaks nicely and does not do things. He is a fence-bearer. He cannot tell that his Zheng Zhi tends to be inclined. He has an attitude of only knowing how to receive money and carry guns.
Therefore, when Cai Zhengqi clearly persuaded him to raise the flag anyway, Cai Zhengze was very careful. Regardless of whether he finally agreed to raise the flag or not, he ordered Cai Zhengqi not to reveal any news to the third battalion and the first battalion. He was actually always guarding against Sun Fei and was worried about Zhao Yongrui.
Now that Cai Zhengqi once complained to Sun Fei, this made Cai Zhengze very angry.
...
"Brother, I thought about it carefully." Cai Zhengqi explained, "My attitude towards the Japanese is a semi-public secret in the group, otherwise the Red Party would not come to us."
He handed a cigarette to his cousin and continued, "So, I thought about it. I'll drink some wine and say some complaints to Zhao Yongrui about being dissatisfied with the Japanese. This is normal, and it won't cause any suspicion."
Cai Zhengze thought about it carefully and felt that his cousin's words still make sense. He breathed a sigh of relief and glared at Cai Zhengqi, "You are smart boy."
"Brother, this sweep was carried out by our 15th Regiment and Ota Brigade." Cai Zhengqi said to Cai Zhengze, "The Japanese slaughtered Shapu, and everyone will only say that it was a bloody crime committed by our 15th Regiment and the Japanese."
"It was made by the Japanese, not us." Cai Zhengze immediately corrected.
...
"Brother, is it interesting to be confused about this word?" Cai Zhengqi said angrily, "Did we kill it? Is there a difference? Now the first battalion has been called over by Ota. Do you believe it or not? The Japanese devils of Ota will definitely let the first battalion take action when killing the people later."
"Shut up." Cai Zhengze was startled. He glared at Cai Zhengqi fiercely, "Be careful that there are ears in the walls, and speak quietly."
"If the first battalion follows Ota to commit murder..." Cai Zhengqi shook his head and said.
"You go out first, I'll think about it, think about it again." Cai Zhengze was very upset, rubbed his face with both hands and said to his cousin.
Cai Zhengqi glanced at his cousin and sighed and left.
...
Cheng Qianfan returned to the yard and came to the "office" of the special commissioner specially arranged by Cai Zhengze for them.
I saw Hu Shiju, the school closure and Huaikelin talking about something, and the school closure expression was a little excited.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content behind! "What's wrong?" Cheng Qianfan asked lightly.
"Senator Cheng."
"Senator Cheng."
"Senator Cheng."
The three of them saluted immediately.
"Sit down and talk." Cheng Qianfan nodded slightly, "Tell me, what happened?"
"Senator Cheng." Feng said, "I just heard a news that a part of Ota Brigade slaughtered Shapu."
"Slaughtered Shapu?" Cheng Qianfan frowned, "When did it happen?"
"Just last night." Feng Jiao said, "he killed more than twenty ordinary people."
He glanced at Cheng Qianfan and gritted his teeth and said, "Senator Cheng, I hope you can report this matter to Nanjing and restrain the Japanese side."
...
Under Cheng Qianfan's gaze, Feng School insisted on saying, "This kind of behavior of Japan will make us lose the hearts of the people."
Cheng Qianfan turned his gaze away from Feng Xue's face. He looked at Hu Shiju, "What about you, tell me what you think about this matter."
"Senator Cheng, his subordinates think that the killing was good." Hu Shiju said.
"Well." Cheng Qianfan nodded, looking interested in listening.
"The Qingpu area is a well-known anti-Japanese guerrilla area." Hu Shiju said with murderous aura, "There are no ordinary people here, they are all anti-Japanese elements. For these stubborn anti-Japanese elements, they must be killed to warn them. They are afraid of it, so that they can be effective."
...
Cheng Qianfan looked at Huaiklin again.
"The subordinates don't know anything else, they only know how to obey orders." Huaiklin said.
Cheng Qianfan smiled. He glanced at Feng School and said with a serious expression, "Don't say such unfavorable words in the future. Ota Brigade is a friendly army. They are cleaning up anti-Japanese elements, not ordinary people."
"Senator Cheng, but I heard..." Feng Jiao was still insisting.
"Closed the school!" Cheng Qianfan's face darkened and he said coldly.
"Subordinate is here."
"Your thoughts are very dangerous!" Cheng Qianfan was stern, "I don't want to hear such words again. Don't talk about the normal military operations of friendly forces, and don't do things that make friendly forces feel disappointed!"
The school was closed and silent.
...
"Did you hear it?" Cheng Qianfan said sternly.
"I understand."
Cheng Qianfan then snorted coldly and walked away.
Huaiklin followed.
"Look at it, the idea of ​​closure of the school is very dangerous." Cheng Qianfan said to Huaiklin.
"I understand." Huaikelin said with great joy.
When he learned that he was assigned to Cheng Qianfan's men to carry out this special commissioner operation, he became interested and quietly visited Secretary Cheng and secretly expressed his loyalty. Now that Secretary Cheng has handed him such an important matter, this shows that he has won Secretary Cheng's trust.
This naturally made Huaiklin very happy.
...
Cai Zhengqi came to the health team and found Mu Kaihuai, Weng Qianning, Bao Qing and others who were arranged by him in the health team.
"This is the situation." Cai Zhengqi said anxiously, "The Japanese slaughtered Shapu in a daze, and suddenly transferred the first battalion to Shapu."
"Beasts are not as good as them!" Weng Qianning's eyes flashed with pain and anger, and he said gritting his teeth.
"Why are there any common people who have not had a strong wall to clear the country?" Bao Qing asked.
"I said I believed the words of the Maintenance Council." Cai Zhengqi said.
"We have more or less known about the situation in Shapu before," said Mu Kaihuai. "Shapu landlord Pan Hongchang, this person has always been close to Japan, which has directly affected some local people."
"Why didn't you take action against a traitor like Pan Hongchang?" Bao Qing frowned and asked.
"Pan Hongchang was just close to the Japanese and did not publicly become a traitor. He was very sleek and even donated 500 kilograms of rice to the guerrillas in private." Mu Kaihuai said, and he sighed and said, "According to the anti-Japanese national united front policy, Pan Hongchang is a person who can and should be united."
...
Bao Qing snorted.
Then he looked at Cai Zhengqi and said, "The Japanese suddenly transferred the first battalion away. Is it not with the consent of Captain Cai?"
"My brother is not aware of it. The Japanese bypassed him and issued orders directly to the first battalion." Cai Zhengqi nodded and said.
"Has this happened before?" Bao Qing immediately asked, "I mean that the Japanese did not inform Captain Cai and bypassed him and directly ordered him to his troops?"
"There is no precedent." Cai Zhengqi thought for a while, shook his head, and said, "In the past, the Japanese would have given orders directly to the camp level, but at least they would say hello to their brother symbolically."
As he said that, Cai Zhengqi thought about it, paused and said, "No, there was a time before that the Japanese bypassed their brother and directly issued orders to the Third Battalion. To be precise, the Japanese sent people to issue military orders to the Third Battalion first, and then notified their brother."
"How long has it been separated in the middle?" Weng Qianning asked suddenly.
"It's like ten minutes." Cai Zhengqi said, "That time, my brother was very angry when he knew that the Japanese were bypassing him and issued an order to the Third Battalion. Then ten minutes later, the Japanese called the regiment headquarters and gave an explanation, saying it was an explanation, that was, a fig leaf."
"Then this time?" Mu Kaihuai asked.
"The first battalion should have received a Japanese transfer order in the early morning." Cai Zhengqi understood what Mu Kaihuai meant, thought for a while, and said, "It's four hours away now."
...
Bao Qing, Weng Jianing and Mu Kaihuai looked at each other, all with solemn expressions.
"What's wrong." Mu Kaihuai said.
"It's not right." Weng Qianning nodded.
"If something goes wrong, there will be a demon!" Bao Qing said with a serious expression.
"Do you suspect that the Japanese have noticed what?" Cai Zhengqi asked immediately.
"It's hard to say." Weng Qianning shook his head and looked at Bao Qing. He was a political worker. As the military chief, A Guan was better at intelligence and military intelligence than him.
"It is impossible to determine whether the Japanese have noticed something now." Bao Qing said, "But one thing is certain. The Japanese have been very strange in this transfer of troops. Judging from this incident, not to mention whether the Japanese are doubting anything, they must have taken some precautionary attitude."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content behind! "Prevention attitude?" Cai Zhengqi thought about something.
"Or it can be understood as a tentative attitude." Mu Kaihuai thought to himself.
Cai Zhengqi's expression became more and more serious, and at the same time there was a hint of panic. He looked at the three of them and said, "I pretended to be drunk before and said some tentative words to the battalion commander Zhao Yongrui."
...
"What do you mean?" Weng Qianning asked immediately.
"Just complaining, saying something like following the Japanese and being scolded, and preparing early," said Cai Zhengqi.
He felt that he was quite cautious in handling it. He made some complaints he had said before, which should not arouse Zhao Yongrui's vigilance. However, in this situation, he couldn't help but speculate in the worst situation.
"Objectively speaking, you usually have dissatisfied with the Japanese, which we have learned about. It is because of this that we secretly contacted you, Company Commander Cai." Weng Qianning said, "Normal, the problem is not big, but in extraordinary times, we must make the worst plans."
"The problem is not what Company Commander Cai said to Zhao Yongrui." Bao Qing thought, and he said with a serious expression, "I thought about it carefully just now, the problem is that the Japanese bypassed Commander Cai to contact the first battalion."
He looked at several people, "Why were the first battalion transferred away, not the second battalion? This is the key to the problem."
...
After thinking for a while, the few people understood what Bao Qing said, and their faces changed drastically.
"Can't hesitate anymore." Weng Qianning said with a serious expression, "We must raise the flag in advance and we must take action."
He looked at Bao Qing, the Huai River. The two of them thought for a moment, nodded, and then looked at Cai Zhengqi.
Cai Zhengqi was silent, his expression became more and more serious, then gritted his teeth and nodded, "Action, raise the flag!"
He said to the three of them, "I'll contact Battalion Commander Duan immediately."
Cai Zhengqi gritted his teeth and said, "My brother has been hesitating, so we simply pulled Brother Duan to act directly and wrapped him in."
"Yes." Bao Qing nodded and said.
Under Cai Zhengqi's arrangement, he had private contact with Duan Feiyang, and this person was prepared for anti-Japanese thoughts and actions.
"After the action, I have a gift for several people." Cai Zhengqi suddenly thought of something and said with a smile.
"What gift?" Weng Qianning looked at Cai Zhengqi and asked with a smile.
"Special gift." Cai Zhengqi said happily, "It is guaranteed to satisfy you."
