Liao Fan is concerned about where his artillery is better placed, Liao Fan analyzed the little devils in several counties, from the perspective of weapons and equipment, the little devils from Pingding County and Xiyang County have an armored car brigade, so Liao Fan decided to arrange these two cannons in advance in case they were armored car brigades by the little devils.

Liao Fan took Huang Changsheng to carefully inspect the surrounding terrain again, and finally arranged the two cannons on two different anti-slope planes, and covered them with camouflage nets, and made two false targets with wood on the mountain not far away, in case they were detected in advance by the little devil's plane and destroyed the two howitzers.

Of course, the final problem still came, there were those who could open artillery, and there were no howitzers to operate the howitzer to designate the target, and this had to be taught by Liao Fan, and the personnel could only be selected from the soldiers of the artillery battalion.

During the time when Liao Fan was training the gunners, the Battle of Wuhan was gradually coming to an end, and the Kuomintang officers arrived at Taihang Mountain, of course, it was Division Commander Chen who was responsible for receiving them, and the Chongqing group of three people was led by a colonel.

"Master Chen, don't come unharmed." The colonel who took the lead was Wang Tianmu of the Military Command Bureau, who was Dai Li's subordinate, a well-known spy leader, and Division Commander Chen had dealt with him many times.

Division Commander Chen did not want to see Wang Tianmu, because this person was ruthless and attacked Division Commander Chen many times, but fortunately, Division Commander Chen's guards protected each other desperately every time, and Division Commander Chen saved the danger many times.

"I didn't expect it to be Boss Dai's subordinates, you guys didn't want to get the intelligence of the Japanese, what did you do in our Taihang Mountain?" Senior Commander Chen was expressionless at this time, and he was very indifferent to Wang Tianmu.

"Senior Commander Chen, your boss has asked you to be ordered to protect me, do you need me to take out your letter from Vice Chairman Zhou?" Wang Tianmu knew that the grievances between the two people could not be resolved, and if it weren't for the joint resistance against Japan now, I was afraid that Senior Commander Chen would kill him now.

"Chief of Staff, protect these three people and return to the station." Senior Commander Chen was angry when he saw Wang Tianmu.

At the garrison of the Eighth Route Army, Division Commander Chen asked one of his platoon commanders to arrange a place for them to live. Then he returned to the command headquarters and sulked, since the start of the Sino-Japanese war, he had not felt so depressed for a long time, he was originally his enemy of life and death, but now he had to protect him from any harm.

"Lao Chen, dissipate your anger, I know your difficulties, but this is the task assigned to us by Vice Chairman Zhou." The chief of staff tried his best to persuade Division Commander Chen.

"How can I get rid of this anger, when I was in Shanghai, when he led people to assassinate me, my three guards died in his hands, you said let's protect this group of beasts, can I not be angry?" Master Chen grew out of rage.

The chief of staff gestured to the people in the headquarters and told them all to go out: "Lao Chen, now we are cooperating to resist Japan, and the Japanese are our biggest enemy, you can't do stupid things on the spur of the moment." "The chief of staff was afraid that Division Commander Chen couldn't help it, so he directly killed Wang Tianmu, and then they would be charged with sabotaging the War of Resistance.

"Chief of Staff, you don't need to persuade me, I know what's at stake, and I won't be impulsive." Teacher Chen said.

"We haven't been dealing with these people for a year or two, and we know very well what they are going to do, so we must be mentally prepared in advance." At first, the chief of staff didn't think that Dai Li's Military Command Bureau would directly intervene in this matter, it seems that they wanted to intervene in the anti-Japanese battlefield behind enemy lines.

"I know in my heart, I knew that this group of people was not good, now I can only look at Liao Fan's attitude, if he wants to follow the Kuomintang, we can't help it, if he dares to make a move, we can't help it."

"It seems that Dai Li attaches great importance to this matter this time." said the chief of staff.

"No matter how much he attaches importance to Chairman Jiang, if Chairman Jiang doesn't nod his head, he won't dare to move, if Chairman Jiang attaches importance to Liao Fan, it is better to say that Chairman Jiang attaches importance to us and wants to smash a nail around us that we can't pull out." Senior Commander Chen was angry, but he still kept a cool head, and he could see Chairman Jiang's intentions at a glance.

"Last time I went to Liao Fan's station, didn't you talk to Liao Fan, ask him about his attitude?" The chief of staff was also curious about what kind of choice Liao Fan would make.

Division Commander Chen shook his head, he had no intention of knowing Liao Fan's attitude now, because Division Commander Chen wanted to arrange for someone to send these bastards away first: "Chief of Staff, tomorrow arrange a battalion of soldiers to send these bastards to Liao Fan's forward outpost, I won't accompany them, out of sight and out of mind." Let my guards go together, he knows the rules for entering Liao Fan's station, and let him keep an eye on these people when the time comes. ”

"Okay, I'll take care of that." The chief of staff didn't want to see Division Commander Chen embarrassed, anyway, a few of them only stayed at the station for one night, and they could leave early tomorrow morning.

However, Wang Tianmu didn't think so, and after several soldiers of the Eighth Route Army arranged a place for them to live, they left. As the leader, Wang Tianmu has been in the spy circle for so many years, of course he knows that sleeping in the house of an old enemy is not a good taste.

"You two be vigilant at night, don't sleep too much." Wang Tianmu said to his two subordinates.

"Sir, could it be that the Eighth Route Army will really attack us?" One of Wang Tianmu's subordinates is called Cheng Tang, and this person has been following Wang Tianmu since the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War.

"Although we have Zhou Enlai's handwritten letter as a talisman, after all, I have a grudge with the surname Chen for many years, so it's better to be vigilant." As a spy under Dai Li, of course, be vigilant at all times.

"Understood, sir." Cheng Tang replied, "By the way, sir, if we go to Liao Fan's station tomorrow, will we encounter danger, and what if the Eighth Route Army doesn't help us?" ”

"I don't know this Liao Fan either, but judging from the information I have gotten, he is at least an anti-Japanese devil, as long as we don't do anything excessive, they shouldn't embarrass us."

"I hope to complete the task and return to Chongqing as soon as possible, whether you want to eat or drink in this broken ravine, Lao Tzu is not willing to wait here." Cheng Tang joined the army in order to be promoted and make a fortune, and now he has come to Taihang Mountain and lives in a thatched house, which is not pleasing to the eye there.

"Don't fucking complain, we have to be vigilant at any time, the water in this Taihang Mountain is not shallower than the water in Chongqing, not to mention the task given to us by Boss Dai, a few of our brothers threw their lives in this deep mountain, and there was no one to collect the corpse." As an old spy, Wang Tianmu would not trust anyone around him, even Cheng Tang.

"Team leader, do I want to go out now to find out the attitude of the Eighth Route Army towards us." Another said.

"This still needs to be investigated, this is not lice on the bald head, it is an obvious thing, the person surnamed Chen is eager to peel us alive now." Cheng Tang said.

"Now that the relationship is not clear, it's best not to go out and make trouble, if we leave a handle for the surname Chen, we don't want to leave safely." Wang Tianmu knew what his subordinates were going to do when they went out, it was nothing more than to spend money to buy a few soldiers of the Eighth Route Army, if they were to go to Division Commander Chen's side, he would really become the eighth king in the urn.

"Team leader, what do you say is good about that kid, I have to ask a few of us to come to this poor and remote place to award the meritorious medal to that person named Liao Fan."

"You know what! The prestige of the Eighth Route Army in the enemy theater is getting higher and higher, and they are getting stronger and stronger, how can the chairman not be worried, we need someone to contain the strength of the Eighth Route Army. "Cheng Tang has been in the Kuomintang for many years, and he knows some things in officialdom more or less.

"Don't ask so much why, what Boss Dai explained, we just have to do it well." As an old spy, Wang Tianmu never asked the reason, he just carried out the task, although this time it was on the surface, he didn't ask Dai Li why.
