Lu Chengzhou's plan is very tight, however, if Ma Yuzhen does not appear, no matter how good the plan is, it is doomed to failure.

For this kind of failure, Lu Chengzhou has long been mentally prepared.

As a party, Wu Wei became more and more nervous after three o'clock.

Before three o'clock, he longed to be as fast as three o'clock.

As an intelligence officer, he knew that when it came to jointing, the time had to be precise.

A minute earlier is not the same as a minute late.

Especially after the joint time, every minute that passes, it means that the probability of Ma Shuyi appearing is reduced by one point.

After a quarter past three, even if Ma Shuyi didn't appear, Wu Wei could only leave.

Waiting for the other party for fifteen minutes is the maximum limit that the joint can bear.

As soon as Ma Shu didn't appear, Wu Wei couldn't talk about making meritorious contributions.

Even Lu Chengzhou has to take responsibility.

After returning to the gendarmerie detachment, Wu Wei was escorted away, and since then, Lu Chengzhou has never seen him again.

It is said that he was sent to a labor camp, where he was tortured to death.

In January 1941, Japanese General Okamura Ninji was appointed commander of the North China Front Army, and he vigorously carried out the "public order strengthening campaign" and implemented the tactic of encircling the iron wall with 70,000 troops.

Everywhere the Japanese army went, they implemented the "three-light policy" of burning, killing, and robbing all the money, and frantically swept away, causing great losses to the people of central Hebei.

The anti-Japanese base areas in North China, faced with the sweep of the Japanese army, began to enter a difficult period.

On 30 March, the puppet North China Political Affairs Committee announced that it would launch the first five-day campaign to strengthen public order in Hebei, Shanxi, Shandong, and other places.

Haigu dispatched more than 28,000 police officers and armor guards to conduct a city-wide household registration inspection, frantically search for anti-Japanese personnel, and "strengthen the armor protection organization."

At the same time, Haigu residents are also forced to hang the "five-color flag".

The five-color flag, also known as the five-ethnic republican flag, is the national flag used during the Beiyang government at the beginning of the founding of the Republic of China, and the flag is red, yellow, blue, white, and black in order, with a ratio of 5:8.

Red, yellow, blue, white, and black represent the Han, Manchu, Mongolian, Hui, and Tibetan ethnic groups, respectively, and the five colors used are the traditional favorite colors of the five ethnic groups, symbolizing the republic of the five ethnic groups.

In fact, after the Northern Expedition, the five-color flag, which you eat first, was completely replaced by the blue sky and the red flag.

At this time, the puppet North China Political Affairs Committee forced residents to hang the five-color flag, which was also to distinguish itself from the Nationalist Government in Chongqing.

This campaign to strengthen public order did not have much impact on the anti-Japanese personnel in Haigu.

It seems to be huge, but it is actually full of loopholes.

Whether it is the military commander or the CCP, because they have been prepared in advance, they can deal with it calmly with all kinds of documents.

Since Lei Xiaoyan's death, the military commander has not sent radio personnel to Haigu.

At the end of April, Yan Ming, who had joined the gendarmerie detachment, was found dead at home.

This traitor, who took refuge in the Japanese secret services, finally got the end he deserved.

It was not until May that an independent sleeper radio station was dispatched, with Song Zhou in charge.

Song Zhou was born in 1908, a native of Baoding, Hebei Province, and graduated from the fourth phase of the higher education class of the Central Army Military Academy.

After the destruction of North China, Song Zhou escaped back to Chongqing and served in the inspection department of the Chongqing Garrison General Headquarters.

After Yan Ming's rebellion, Chongqing has been selecting suitable sleeper radio stations.

In the end, it was Dai Li who appointed him and sent him to Haigu as the director of the latent radio station.

This time, Chongqing learned the lesson of Yan Ming and informed Lu Chengzhou in advance.

After receiving the notice from Chongqing, Lu Chengzhou disguised himself and went to the East Railway Station to pick up Song Zhou, and personally sent him to the safe house behind the church in the French Concession.

"Mr. Song, this is a safe house that we have never opened, if you are not satisfied, we can replace it for you. Or, you can replace it yourself. The radio station is the original Lei Xiaoyan's, you can try the machine, the antenna has been set up for you. After Lu Chengzhou arrived at the safe house, the whole person relaxed.

"Thank you, Brother Fire." Song Zhou was observing this legendary military hero along the way.

While in Chongqing, he had heard legends about flames.

The anti-Japanese situation in Haigu was extremely bad, and it was not easy for Haigu Station to maintain until now.

Haigu stood in front of the flames, and changed many stationmasters.

After Flame served as the station commander, he not only clashed with the military police detachment many times, but also established the Haigu Anti-Japanese Brigade of the Loyal National Salvation Army.

Although the combat effectiveness of the Haigu Anti-Japanese Brigade needs to be further improved, the military commander has his own army around Haigu, and even Dai Li is deeply proud of this.

Before coming to Haigu this time, when Dai Li talked to him, he also specifically talked about flames.

Although Songzhou's independent latent radio station does not have horizontal contact with the Haigu station, if there is a problem, it can request help from the Haigu station through Chongqing.

"From now on, I don't know that you have been here, and I don't know that you live here, see you after the victory of the anti-Japanese resistance!" Lu Chengzhou stretched out his right hand, smiled, and said.

"See you after the victory of the anti-Japanese resistance!" Song Zhou stretched out his right hand and held it tightly with Lu Chengzhou.

He knew that Flame must have been disguised, and Flame looked to be nearly forty years old, but his actual age should be younger than himself.

The reason why the flame is disguised is probably because of its special identity.

Dai Li didn't mention the identity of the flame, and Song Zhou didn't take the initiative to ask.

Lurking behind enemy lines, it's normal to have a lurking identity.

One day in May, Hiroshi Kawasaki called Lu Chengzhou to the office.

"The sweep of Panshan at the end of last year did not completely wipe out the Eighth Route Army. The above demanded that people be sent to infiltrate the Panshan area to reconnoiter the recent situation of the 13th Regiment of the Eighth Route Army. Hiroshi Kawasaki groaned.

The Eighth Route Army in Panshan did a very good job in counter-espionage work.

Although various departments have sent people to infiltrate Panshan, the only one who has really succeeded is Zhao Bin from the intelligence room.

"Shall we send someone?" Lu Chengzhou asked quietly.

The Japanese army's blockade along the Bac Ninh Railway became more and more severe, and the communication between the two base areas in the north and south of the Bac Ninh Railway continued to decrease.

In order to lead the work of opening up the region, the higher authorities divided the south of the Bac Ninh Railway into the Central Hebei District, and the north of the Bac Ninh Railway into the East Hebei District.

The 13th Panshan Regiment belongs to the eastern Hebei base area.

"Yes, let's send Zhao Bin, he is familiar with the situation. In addition to reconnoitering the situation of the 13th Regiment, I also had to find out the economic situation in the Panshan area, how the people ate, and the variety and price of goods on the market. Kawasaki Hiroshi said that in addition to military means, there are also economic means to sweep the Panshan area.

"Okay." What else can Lu Chengzhou say, no matter what Kawasaki Hiroshi asks, he must try his best to meet it.

Fortunately, Zhao Bin had already had contact with the Eighth Route Army in Panshan last time.

Our party has also done work for Zhao Bin, and his thinking has changed, so he can come back safely.
