It wasn't until more than ten o'clock in the morning that Lu Chengzhou received this "shocking" news that Terada Kiyozo had been killed.

Lu Chengzhou immediately rushed to the scene of the incident as quickly as possible.

The place where Terada Kiyozo was killed was the only way to enter the city.

When Lu Chengzhou arrived, Kawasaki Hiroshi had already arrived at the scene in advance.

The body of Terada Kiyozo was still in the same state as when he died, and a large piece of his head was sunk into it, and there were white and red brains all around him, which showed that the attackers were very powerful at that time.

Lu Chengzhou saw Kawasaki Hiroshi standing beside Terada Kiyozo with a serious face, observing Terada Kiyozo's body, and he looked carefully at it from the side.

Although Lu Chengzhou was well aware of the entire murder process of Terada Kiyozo, at this time he could only try to analyze the situation as a bystander.

Hiroshi Kawasaki also saw Lu Chengzhou, and when Lu Chengzhou got closer, he asked, "Who do you think did it?" ”

Lu Chengzhou looked around, and then approached Terada Kiyozo's head, carefully looking at the wound.

Lu Chengzhou left quickly at that time, and the death of Terada Kiyozo, although it was terrifying, fell into Lu Chengzhou's eyes at this time, but there was a particularly happy feeling.

Lu Chengzhou pondered for a while before he said slowly: "Judging from the modus operandi, this person is not like an anti-Japanese person, but more like a special roadblock robber." ”

The reason why Lu Chengzhou did not use a knife or a gun was that he did not want the Japanese to link this matter with the anti-Japanese organization.

Kawasaki Hiroshi bowed slightly, he also felt that this murderer was only for robbery, not an anti-Japanese person.

Just now he searched Terada Kiyozo's body, and the information he brought back from Erbu Mountain was still there, but the money on his body was gone.

Moreover, Terada Kiyozo went to Mt. Nibu by bicycle, and now the bicycle is gone.

Kawasaki Hiroshi analyzed that the reason why Terada Kiyozo was killed must be because of money.

This made Lu Chengzhou suddenly feel much better, and if Terada Kiyozo died as a result of the anti-Japanese people, he would be very angry.

But if he was robbed, he wouldn't be so extreme.

Hiroshi Kawasaki put his hands behind his back, glanced back at the corpse of Terada Kiyozo, turned to the side of the car, and said to Lu Chengzhou, who was following him: "Let's go back first, Terada Kiyozo brought back important information from Erbu Mountain." ”

Lu Chengzhou immediately followed Kawasaki Hiroshi into the car and went around such a big circle, isn't it just for this?

After getting into the car, Kawasaki Hiroshi handed Lu Chengzhou a note, which was the information from Xu Tie that the Haigu Anti-Japanese Brigade would go down the mountain in the near future and attack the bunker again.

At the same time, the Haigu Anti-Japanese Brigade had already sent people to sneak into Haigu to prepare to transport a batch of grain up the mountain.

Lu Chengzhou looked at the words on the note carefully, and said firmly: "Teacher, this is Xu Tie's handwriting." ”

The reason why Kawasaki Hiroshi asked him to mention this matter was not only because Xu Tie was his original subordinate, but also because Terada Kiyozo died suddenly?

Xu Tie was originally arranged by Lu Chengzhou to enter Erbu Mountain, and Terada Qingzang made meritorious contributions, so he snatched this line from Lu Chengzhou's hands.

Kawasaki Hiroshi took the note handed by Lu Chengzhou, closed his eyes slightly, leaned back on the sofa, and suddenly asked, "What do you think should be done with the matter of Terada Kiyozo?" ”

Lu Chengzhou was slightly surprised, he had been waiting for Kawasaki Hiroshi to ask about the information, but he didn't expect the other party to ask about Terada Kiyozo.

Lu Chengzhou thought for a while before he muttered: "If Terada Kiyozo hadn't died at the hands of anti-Japanese elements, things would have become simpler. ”

Hiroshi Kawasaki said slowly: "What is a simple method? ”

Lu Chengzhou immediately said: "It's okay to hand it over to the local police station, but the possibility of solving the case is not high." If it is a wandering crime, basically the chance of solving the case is not very large. ”

Kawasaki Hiroshi said again: "What do you think of the actions of the Haigu Anti-Japanese Brigade? ”

Lu Cheng was stunned, originally he had prepared several sets of response plans, but he couldn't say it right away at this time.

Lu Cheng turned his head, looked out the window, and after thinking for a long time, he said slowly: "Gather all your strength to cleanly and completely eliminate this army on Erbu Mountain." ”

Kawasaki Hiroshi shook his head, Lu Chengzhou's statement was too vague, it seemed to be conclusive, but in fact, he didn't say anything.

Hiroshi Kawasaki asked, "Is there a specific plan?" ”

Lu Chengzhou immediately said: "Teacher, I want to transfer all the people who can be mobilized by the gendarmerie to the east of the city to reconnoiter the area around Erbu Mountain. We don't have an exact date, so we have to cast a wide net. ”

Lu Chengzhou didn't think that in order to mobilize all the people, he only needed to attract everyone's attention to Erbu Mountain.

Kawasaki Hiroshi feels that although Lu Chengzhou's suggestion is good, it is basically impossible to do it.

"Have you thought about it? We have limited manpower, and if we all transfer them out, what will happen once they enter the city? Hiroshi Kawasaki said with some concern.

Lu Chengzhou immediately said: "The teacher is worried, aren't they going to go to the city to buy food? Just keep an eye on all the grain merchants, especially the Chinese ones. ”

Starting from this month, the Haigu City Grain Distribution Control Office, which is composed of 88 Chinese and Japanese grain merchants, will comprehensively manage the city's food control.

In other words, in the future, Haigu's grain could only be provided by these 88 grain merchants, and they became monopolies.

Anything, as long as it is monopolized, will immediately become a huge profit.

When Kawasaki Hiroshi heard this, he immediately shook his head and said, "We must not only focus on Chinese grain merchants, but also Japanese grain merchants." Businessmen are profit-seeking, and they do everything for the sake of such small profits. ”

If it was in the past, Kawasaki Hiroshi could also turn a blind eye, but this time it is related to the Haigu Anti-Japanese Brigade, and there is no room for mistakes.

Eighty-eight grain merchants, even if each person is staring at one, there must be eighty-eight people.

Moreover, the attention of the gendarmerie was all attracted to the grain merchants, and people like Kawasaki Hiroshi and Inoo personally sat in the ranks of some suspected grain merchants.

However, just as the gendarmerie was preparing to wipe out the Haigu Anti-Japanese Brigade, the large military warehouse of Unit 1820 in the east of Haigu suddenly caught fire.

Although this military warehouse was right next to the river, the fire spread quickly, and it took a day and a night for the Japanese army to concentrate a large number of manpower and extinguish the fire.

On this day and night, tens of thousands of military uniforms, thousands of boxes of shoes, and hundreds of thousands of bullets were burned by the Japanese army.

As for the other guns and ammunition lost, it is even more difficult to count.

The Jidong sweep, which was supposed to end in December, had to end ahead of schedule because of this incident.

Although Lu Chengzhou was in the rear, he felt that this operation greatly cooperated with the frontal battlefield.

Even if the sweep of the Japanese army ends a day early, I don't know how many anti-Japanese soldiers and civilians will be saved.

At the end of the year, the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China issued a decision to pay attention to strengthening the work in the occupied areas.

Seeing this information, Lu Chengzhou was very excited, which showed that the organization would strengthen the work of Haigu.
