Chapter 1009: Promotion

Seeing Hu Mengbei, Zhu Muyun felt distressed for a while. It's only been a month since they were separated, but Hu Mengbei looks a lot thinner. His face looked tired, and it was clear that he hadn't rested well from the long journey.

"Lao Hu, you've lost weight." Zhu Muyun held Hu Mengbei's hand and said with concern.

"It's nice to be alive." Hu Mengbei said disapprerovantly that the injuries on his body almost killed him. Besides, he also went to Yancheng once, thousands of miles back and forth, all the way, and almost didn't die on the road.

"Yes, to live is to win." Zhu Muyun deeply believes that living is the most basic requirement for survival, and only by staying alive can we witness the victory of the revolution.

"Last time, the information you provided about the two mountains of Yunliang was highly praised by the superior leader." Hu Mengbei said with a smile.

His body was fine, but he was in a hurry to get back, and the road was bumpy and his wounds were a little cracked. Moreover, he was able to survive because of the medicines that Zhu Muyun had sent to the base before, as well as a complete set of medical equipment, and a gas generator set.

No wonder Gan Changlin always praised Comrade Weeds for doing half of the work of the logistics minister. Every time he returned to the base area, Gan Changlin would ask him to convey his gratitude to Zhu Muyun.

"I just did what I was supposed to do." Zhu Muyun said humbly, and then, he reported the situation during this period to Hu Mengbei in detail.

Zhu Muyun's memory is very good, he can remember the time and place of everything that happened, and he introduced the situation of the parties very clearly. In order to make it easier for Hu Mengbei to remember, he must write it down. He doesn't have a memory like Zhu Muyun, and there are some things that a good memory is better than a bad pen.

"Recently, the military commanders have been very interested in the date of the withdrawal of the Japanese army, is it that the Kuomintang diehards are preparing to attack the base area again?" Zhu Muyun asked. Deng Xiangtao did not disclose more information, but he deduced that the Fifth Theater must have bad intentions towards the Hunan-Henan-Hubei Advance Column.

"Quite possibly. However, no matter what, as long as they dare to infringe on the base areas, they will resolutely fight back. Hu Mengbei said solemnly that if either the Japanese army or the Kuomintang army dared to invade the base area, it would not end well.

"Then I'll be relieved." Zhu Muyun said that what he was most worried about was attacking the base area. How sad is it that the Chinese beat the Chinese and turned a blind eye to the Japanese next to them?

"As long as they dare to come, it will definitely not end well." Hu Mengbei coughed lightly and said slowly.

"Lao Hu, is your body okay?" Zhu Muyun asked with concern, Hu Mengbei's face was pale, a normal person would be unbearable after such a long journey, not to mention that he was still an injured person.

"It's okay, my own body is still unclear?" Hu Mengbeiqiang said with a smile. However, the severe pain made a thin bead of sweat appear on his forehead.

"No, you have to see a doctor right away." Zhu Muyun also learned first aid, he knew that Hu Mengbei's situation was not soaked, and said firmly. I have resources in my hands, medicines in the basement, and even a complete set of surgical instruments. As long as Wei Chaopeng is invited, all problems will be solved.

"Even if you see a doctor, you don't need to arrange it." Hu Mengbei shook his head and said stubbornly.

This time when he returned to Guxing, he deliberately went to Touchong and met Bian Mingze. The two mainly talked about Zhu Muyun's situation, and Zhu Muyun's intelligence not only saved the leading organs of the Hunan-Hubei-Henan border region, but also allowed the Hunan-Henan-Hubei Advance Column to take the opportunity to eliminate nearly two regiments of the New 2nd Army.

This shows the importance of intelligence. This time Hu Mengbei came to Guxing again, Bian Mingze's request to him was to let Zhu Muyun have no distractions, and try not to disturb him about trivial matters. After all, every activity of Zhu Muyun will leave an indelible trace.

Hu Mengbei's injury is indeed not completely healed. He returned to Guxing from Yancheng and traveled a long way, and the wounds on his body showed traces of cracking. In the past, Hu Mengbei would not hesitate to ask Zhu Muyun to arrange for Wei Chaopeng to treat him. But now, Hu Mengbei felt that it was more appropriate to arrange treatment through the comrades of the Guxing underground party.

"Okay." Zhu Muyun knew that he couldn't persuade Hu Mengbei. But he found some anti-inflammatory tablets for Hu Mengbei and asked him to take them immediately. Zhu Muyun still has some of these expensive medicines in the basement.

"One more thing, from now on, weeds are no longer your one's code name." Hu Mengbei suddenly said that this was also out of the protection of Zhu Muyun, and the organization made such an arrangement.

The code name of weeds, the head of the column and the leaders of the border districts, already know. For example, Qin Xiangqian, Gan Changlin, Wu Chaogeng and others have long heard the names of wild grasses. This is Zhu Muyun's honor and an affirmation of his achievements. But as an undercover agent, it's dangerous.

Originally, Hu Mengbei proposed whether to let Zhu Muyun change his codename. For those who are engaged in underground work, the change of codes and pseudonyms is commonplace. Zhu Muyun's previous code names have also passed through "deputy section chief", "section chief", etc., and on the side of the military commander, he has also changed several times.

But the code name "weed" is really reluctant to give up. First, the codename has not been revealed. In the base area, only a few people know about it. The information fed back from various channels shows that the Japanese puppet spy organs, as well as the military command and the central command, have not mastered this code name.

Second, the code name of weeds made a great contribution in the just-concluded battle against the Kuomintang diehards. It also played an important role in the counter-sweep of the Japanese army. If it weren't for the situation of wild grass, it would have been difficult for the Hunan-Henan-Hubei advance column to jump out of the encirclement of the Japanese army in time.

If you want to change the codename, at least let the code name of weeds play the last role. Therefore, the border protection decided to keep the code name of weeds for the time being. However, the code name of weeds is not exclusive to Zhu Muyun. Such an arrangement is not to rob Zhu Muyun of his credit, but to disperse his danger.

There is also the current situation, the military commander is so concerned about the withdrawal of the Japanese army, it is obvious that the Kuomintang diehards are still not giving up on the Hunan-Henan-Hubei advance column. If they do not break their heads and bleed, they will definitely not be soberly aware that the New Fourth Army will never be wiped out.

At this time, Zhu Muyun's safety is particularly important. The Hunan-Henan-Hubei advance column needed Zhu Muyun's intelligence, and the reason why Hu Mengbei came back with his injuries was also to restore contact with the organization as soon as possible. It is always unsafe for Zhu Muyun to contact the border guards directly.

"No longer my codename?" Zhu Muyun was very surprised, could it be said that the code name could still be shared?

"Starting today, we will set up a 'Weed Intelligence Group', you are the team leader, and I am the deputy team leader. All members of the BFIPU can use the code name Weed. Hu Mengbei said. Once something happens to him, he can also protect Zhu Muyun at the last moment.

"Weed Intelligence Group? Is there anyone else but us? Zhu Muyun asked.

"Not yet." Hu Mengbei shook his head and said. The fewer personnel in this intelligence group, the safer. Unless there are special circumstances, there will be no additions for a certain period of time. In the future, the most important thing is to add a traffic officer to Zhu Muyun.

It's just that this traffic officer, how to pass information to Zhu Muyun still needs to be discussed. Most importantly, the choice of traffic officer is also a problem. This person must be absolutely politically loyal, smart, and have a suitable identity to be able to appear by Zhu Muyun's side often.

"Lao Hu, did you make a mistake just now, you are my leader, why am I the team leader and you are the deputy team leader?" Zhu Muyun suddenly thought of a question. If an intelligence group is established, Hu Mengbei should be the team leader, and he is already very satisfied that he can be a deputy team leader.

Zhu Muyun did revolution and never thought of being promoted to become rich. Besides, if you are an official in **, you can't make a fortune.

"I'm not mistaken, in view of the increasing importance of the information you are providing now, it has been decided by the superiors to serve as the leader of the weeds group. From now on, you will be my leader. Hu Mengbei said with a smile.

In fact, his task has long been to cooperate with and protect Zhu Muyun. Their intelligence team was originally working around Zhu Muyun.

"How can this be? You are my teacher, and you will always lead me. Zhu Muyun said busily that he never thought of leading Hu Mengbei. You must know that some of his agent skills were trained by Hu Mengbei. Even if he is blue, he can't be the leader of Hu Mengbei.

"Do you think that being my leader is like being in the Japanese puppet agency? Can you be a bully and bend the law for bribes? The cadres of the first class have always only been dedicated and paid, and never ask for returns. Letting you be the team leader, this is an organizational decision, isn't it child's play? Having you as a team leader means responsibility, and the more difficult tasks that follow. Hu Mengbei said earnestly.

"Well, I accept the organization's decision. Comrade Hu Mengbei, since I am now your leader, should you listen to my orders? Zhu Muyun sighed helplessly, and then his tone changed, and his eyes showed a sly gaze.

"If I should listen to you, I will naturally listen, and if I shouldn't listen to you, I will definitely not listen." Hu Mengbei also knows Zhu Muyun's character very well, and when he said this, he immediately understood that Zhu Muyun was going to play tricks again.

"You deserve to be my teacher, you must remember to go to the doctor." Zhu Muyun said that he finally understood that his so-called team leader was actually just an empty shelf. In other words, it is the honor given to itself by the organization. The weeds intelligence team, the real leader is Hu Mengbei.

"Don't worry, I'll go tomorrow." Hu Mengbei said.

"One more thing, you brought a new codebook, can you show me?" Zhu Muyun thought of a question, even if Hu Mengbei came back, he had to ensure that he could contact his family at any time.

"No, the codebook is only in my hands." Hu Mengbei shook his head and rejected Zhu Muyun again.
