Chapter 1233: Joy and Sorrow

Song Peng implements the principle of preferring to lose rather than expose. It is better to abandon the entire military command than to be discovered by them. The organizations that have been exposed by the military command, even if they do transfer, will not be arrested at present. At the very least, they can't be arrested at their current address.

The news from Yichang made Deng Xiangtao very smooth. He felt that October 5, 1941 was really a memorable day. This was the turning point when the Nationalist army launched an all-out counteroffensive and defeated the Japanese army.

In addition to the good news in Yichang, the national army in the Ninth Theater of Operations in Changsha surrounded the Japanese army between the Laodao River and the Liuyang River in Changsha. At the beginning of October, the line of communication between the besieged Japanese army in Changsha and the rear had been cut off, and it was very difficult to resupply.

On October 2, the Military Commission of the Nationalist Government ordered the troops of the 9th Theater of Operations to pursue; The 79th Army pursued in the direction of Changle Street and Xinshi, and the 58th Army and the 72nd Army pursued in the direction of Guanwangqiao and Yanglin Street; The main forces of the 4th, 20th, and 99th armies intercepted the Japanese in the areas of Ma'anpu, Qingshan City, and Jinjing; The 26th and 74th armies and the provisional 2nd army cleaned up the battlefields between the Liuyang River and the Laodao River.

On 5 October, the Chinese interceptor force engaged the Japanese in a fierce battle south of the Miluo River, forcing them to retreat north of the Xinqiang River across the Mishui River. On the 6th, the pursuing troops crossed the Miluo River; On the 8th, they crossed the Xinqiang River and continued to attack the Japanese army.

When the Sixth Theater began its counteroffensive against Yichang, the Japanese army had just occupied Changsha, and Deng Xiangtao was very worried at that time. If Changsha is occupied, Guxing will be reduced to a real area of occupation. If the Japanese army opens up the Guangdong-Han line, it will further compress the living space of the national army.

However, within a few days, the Japanese troops occupying Changsha were forced to withdraw from Changsha, and at the same time, the fifth, sixth, and third theaters launched attacks on the enemy in front of them. This also relieved the pressure on the Ninth Theater of Operations in Changsha from the side.

However, on the evening of the 5th, Deng Xiangtao received a tragic news: The 13th Division of the Japanese Army, which was surrounded by the Nationalist Army, concentrated dozens of mountain artillery, mortars, and field heavy artillery and fired 1,000 "Strange" and 1,500 "Red No. 1" poison gas bombs at the Chinese army, killing a large number of Chinese soldiers and civilians.

"District, the national army is still fighting bloodily, taking turns to attack Dongshan Tucheng, Yichang is in danger." Zhu Muyun also met Deng Xiangtao in the evening.

During this time, Zhu Muyun originally avoided meeting Deng Xiangtao as much as possible. He has never found an answer to Li Bangfan's information about the military command through what channels. This made Zhu Muyun very worried, he always felt that he was walking a tightrope on the edge of the cliff, and if he didn't pay attention to it, he would fall to pieces.

All along, Zhu Muyun has tried his best to hide his identity, even to Watson and the third son, he has not revealed his identity. Hu Mengbei once told him that protecting himself is a difficult task. In order to better lurk and fight the enemy, he must make safety a top priority.

"The Japanese are so inhuman." Deng Xiangtao was so angry that he slammed his fist on the table, and he also hated himself for not blowing up the Japanese army's poison gas bomb. Now the Japanese army launched it, and it all fell on the Chinese.

"If the Japanese had humanity, would they invade us? According to the latest news, Uchiyama Eitaro has already complained to Commander Anan in Yueyang. It is said that the telegram reads: From the night of the 6th to the 7th, the total strength of the enemy was 9 divisions on the north front, 3 divisions on the west front, and 2 divisions on the south front. The enemy's part of the gap equipped by me sneaked in, echoing inside and out, as if trying to recapture Yichang. I think that when Anan received such a telegram, he had no heart to fight against the Ninth War Zone. Zhu Muyun said with a smile.

"The pressure on the Ninth Theater is very great, and the commission orders that all theaters should attack the enemy in front of them. If the city of Yichang is broken, Uchiyama Eitaro will die. This time, the commission is still very satisfied with the Sixth War Zone. Deng Xiangtao said.

"It's a matter of time, I don't think the national army will die in vain, all this will be repaid by the Japanese in the future." Zhu Muyun said solemnly.

"Yes, as long as we share the same hatred, the day of victory in the War of Resistance will not be too far away." Deng Xiangtao said slowly.

"Yesterday, Saburo Nagato, the 3rd Flying Regiment of the Japanese Army stationed in Koxing, received a letter from Eitaro Uchiyama asking for help. It is said that Isamu Kinoshita, chief of staff of the 11th Army in Yueyang, also received an urgent telegram from Uchiyama requesting an airlift of troops. Kinoshita must have been discussing the issue of how to support Yichang. Zhu Muyun said that Uchiyama Eitaro asked for help everywhere, and the arrogant senior commander of the Japanese army put down his face, indicating that the situation in Yichang was indeed critical.

"So, we're going to step up the destruction of the airport. If at this time, all the airfields around Yichang can be destroyed, and the Japanese army in Yichang will become a turtle in an urn. Deng Xiangtao said.

"Tomorrow morning, Isamu Kinoshita's rescue plan should be known. District, is Li Chenyu's investigation clear? Zhu Muyun asked.

"Everything works." Deng Xiangtao said that he had always felt that Zhu Muyun was alarmist, and that if the Political Security Bureau discovered Li Chenyu's whereabouts, it would be impossible for the military commander's latent group to go unarrested. At the very least, let's arrest Li Chenyu too.

As long as Li Chenyu's mouth is pried open, it is almost equivalent to prying open the mouth of the head of the traffic team of the military commander's ancient star region. This will be a devastating blow to the military command.

"Everything is normal? What about Song Peng? What has he been doing lately? Zhu Muyun asked, he didn't believe in this result. Li Chenyu behaved normally and was not exposed, so what has Song Peng been doing recently?

"Deng Yangchun went to Guchang, and he hasn't started an investigation into Song Peng yet." Deng Xiangtao said.

"District, this is not good, you must know what Song Peng has been doing recently. I haven't seen anyone else for a few days, and Sun Minghua doesn't care about Song Peng. Li Chenyu's information was provided by Song Peng, and if Li Chenyu had a problem, it must be related to Song Peng. Zhu Muyun said that he secretly blamed himself and only emphasized Li Chenyu's safety, but did not notice Song Peng.

"Let's talk about it when Deng Yangchun comes back, your problem now is to pay attention to the movements of the Japanese army. This is the most important piece of information at the moment, even if there are sacrifices in our Ancient Star Region, it is nothing compared to the lives of hundreds of thousands of soldiers of the National Army on the front line. Deng Xiangtao said that as long as he wanted to fight back against the Japanese invaders, he could make any sacrifice.

"District, Song Peng's problem has not been clarified, Deng Yangchun should not come back." Zhu Muyun shook his head, at this time, all the people who have been in contact with Li Chenyu in the recent past may have their identities exposed.

Since Deng Yangchun has left Guxing, it is very inappropriate to rush him back before the matter is clarified. It is precisely because of Deng Yangchun's important identity that he cannot easily get involved in danger.

"Song Peng's problem is easy to find out, and it will take time for Deng Yangchun to come back. When Song Peng's situation was clear, Deng Yangchun also happened to arrive in Guxing. Deng Xiangtao said that Deng Yangchun is the director of intelligence, and there are some things that must be done by Deng Yangchun.

"Okay. It's just that after Deng Yangchun comes back, he has to arrange a new place to live. In addition, he can no longer contact Li Chenyu. Zhu Muyun said that although this is only a possibility, it does not mean that Li Chenyu is really wrong.

But without identifying the cause, no caution can be overstated. Once something happens, the consequences are serious.

"Why don't I apply to the headquarters and promote you to the Guxing District as the district head." Deng Xiangtao felt that Zhu Muyun was too verbose, and based on his inference, Li Chenyu might be exposed, so he arranged the work according to the exposed situation.

At the beginning, Zhu Muyun also suspected that there were traitors in the military command, could it be that he wanted to stop all the work in the Guxing District? It's okay to be cautious, but if it's too cautious, it's time to correct it.

"I don't dare to be the head of the district, I said that I will follow the teacher all my life, and I hope to always listen to the teacher's teachings." Zhu Muyun said humbly.

"Don't you dare to be the district head, if you give it to a deputy district head, will you dare?" Deng Xiangtao glared at Zhu Muyun, although Zhu Muyun did not arrange a specific position in the Guxing District, his military rank was already a lieutenant colonel.

With such a military rank, a very important position can be arranged in the Ancient Star District. For example, the deputy director of the intelligence department, or even, the head of the division. Zhu Muyun's qualifications may not be enough, but his ability is competent enough. However, in Deng Xiangtao's mind, Zhu Muyun is the most suitable for himself as an assistant.

The actions of the military commanders, coupled with Zhu Muyun's meticulous logical thinking, will be flawless. In the future, the military commanders will shoulder the heavy task of resisting the CCP, and when the time comes, they will have to rely on Zhu Muyun's ability.

"As long as the district seat dares to suggest to the headquarters, I dare to be the deputy district head." Zhu Muyun said with a smile.

"Dream! How many years have you been in the military? That is, your identity has not been disclosed, otherwise, you would be a lieutenant now. Deng Xiangtao sneered.

"Everything I have is given by my teacher, as long as it is for the anti-Japanese war, it doesn't matter if I am an official or not. As long as I follow the district seat, even if it is to be an orderly, I am very happy. Zhu Muyun said solemnly.

"If you really want to be an orderly, how happy will you be when the time comes?" Deng Xiangtao scolded with a smile, Zhu Muyun's words sounded very comfortable, but they were not realistic.

Although Zhu Muyun is young and has shallow qualifications, he has made a lot of contributions. The code name of "Rooster" is known to Boss Dai. The "rooster" of the Guxing District has made outstanding contributions. If Zhu Muyun can successfully lurk until the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, it is really possible to be reused. When the time comes, when I return to the bureau, I will definitely be promoted again.

Zhu Muyun is currently a lieutenant colonel, and if he is promoted again, he is likely to be a colonel, or even a major general. At that time, Zhu Muyun will no longer be his subordinate. Of course, there is a premise for all this, Zhu Muyun must be able to live until the day of the victory of the Anti-Japanese War.

It is dangerous to work behind enemy lines, but it is even more dangerous to lurk inside the enemy. Also in the Ancient Star, Zhu Muyun's work is several times more dangerous than the work of other people in the Ancient Star District. Yu Xinyu is also lurking in the enemy camp, but she is only lurking in the fake enemy camp. Quite Zhu Muyun, she has actually been living under the umbrella.
