After more than 1,000 days of continuous driving, the puppet army finally rushed to the river in the mouth of the company commander of the Imperial Association Army before dark.

Major General Nakamura was just about to order the troops to disperse and search, when a second lieutenant in the front rushed over.

"Sir, a large number of excavated traces have been found on the river bank ahead, and there are many footprints of mules and horses!"

Nakamura was shocked, and then ordered, "Go now!" ”

Walking to the destination, a large excavated riverbank appeared in Nakamura's field of vision. The deputy walked around the area and then ran over and reported: "General, we're late!" ”

"There was no rain during this time, and judging from the traces of the excavation of the earth, the gold buried by the Eighth Route Army on the riverbank should have been transported three days ago. Judging from the footprints left by the mules and horses on the ground, the Eighth Route Army used at least hundreds of mules and horses to transfer this gold! ”

"Can you follow these horseshoe prints to find where the Eighth Route Army transferred the gold?" Major General Nakamura, whose disappointed expression quickly flashed on his face, stared at the adjutant and asked expectantly.

Nakamura shook his head and replied, "No...... Horseshoe prints are only found by the river, and there are no more when you leave the river! ”

"The vegetation is so lush now that if it's the next day of the mule and horse, we can follow the slightest change in the grass and trees that break. But now that too much time has passed, those small changes have all disappeared! ”

Major General Nakamura subconsciously wanted to get angry, but in the end he held back.

"More than a hundred mules and horses marched, and it was impossible to be silent with such a big movement. Check it for me right away, everyone goes out to check, and you must find out where these Eighth Route Army transferred the gold? ”

"Whether it is the Imperial Cooperative Army or the Imperial Army, as long as the information provided is true, the official will be promoted to two levels, and then a thousand yuan will be rewarded to the ocean!"

Major General Nakamura believes that in the face of the temptation of money and power, his subordinates will definitely do their best to find the good news they want to know.

At this time, he suddenly thought of the puppet army company commander who had been with him, and in order to dispel the concerns of his subordinates about what he had just promised, he made a decision on the spot.

"Zhang Jun, Company Commander Zhang. Although we did not find the gold based on the information you provided. However, judging from the situation on the ground, the information you provided is true. After you go back, I will promote you to the front army as the commander of the regiment, and then reward you with a thousand oceans, hoping that you will continue to serve the imperial army in the future, and the imperial army will definitely not treat you friends badly! ”

"Thank you, Taijun, you will definitely be loyal to the Imperial Army and serve the Imperial Army with all your heart!" The company commander of the Imperial Allied Army, who was following Major General Nakamura, replied with excitement on his face and very flattering.

To the devil's surprise, the flattery and flattery they see are only appearances.

The heart of the company commander of the Imperial Allied Army is firmer than anyone else, although he is staring at the hat of the big traitor, but his real identity is the intelligence officer of the Eighth Route Army who has infiltrated the Japanese puppet army.

After all the gold and ocean were transferred, in order to allow the intelligence personnel hidden in the Japanese puppet army to further grow into the top of the Japanese puppet army, and provide more information with the Eighth Route Army. Huang Yu seized this opportunity very decisively, and asked several intelligence officers to tell the Japanese the location of the gold hidden in various ways, so as to win the favor of the Japanese, so as to be promoted to a higher position!

Obviously, Huang Yu's purpose was achieved.

A piece of information that is almost useless is directly exchanged for the position of the head of the Imperial Association!

A month later, it has been almost four months since Wang Ping left Yan'an, and in less than a month, his wife Ouyang Antong's due date has arrived.

At ten o'clock in the evening, in Yan'an, where there was almost no electricity and nightlife, everyone else slept except for a handful of patrol troops who were still in good spirits.

However, tonight is destined to be a sleepless night for many people in Yan'an City.

At twelve o'clock in the evening, a large detachment of guards suddenly appeared at the quiet city gates.

Guard posts, patrols, have been placed around the city gate for more than a kilometer. No amount of wind or grass can escape the eyes of these guards.

After another hour, dozens of people left the headquarters and came to the city gate together, discussing something in a whisper, everyone with a smile on their faces, and they were in a very good mood.

You don't have to guess to know that they must be waiting for someone when they appeared at the city gate so late.

The commander-in-chief, the deputy commander-in-chief, the commander-in-chief, and several other heads of the headquarters went out together, and for several years, there was almost no appearance.

The Chongqing intelligence officers and Japanese puppet army intelligence officers who monitored the every move of the headquarters around the headquarters directly caused a sensation, and everyone focused their attention on the small gate of Yan'an City. However, because the guard regiment of the headquarters put the guard post too far away, although they guessed that there would be a very important person coming to Yan'an in a while, they couldn't see who it was, and they could only look at it from a distance! ”

"So, for these people, tonight's Yan'an is destined to be a sleepless night."

"Boss, when will Comrade Wang Ping arrive!" The commander-in-chief, who was surrounded by everyone, seemed to be a little impatient, staring at the commander-in-chief and asked.

"The river defense troops reported that they all crossed the river at eight o'clock in the evening, and according to the normal marching speed, as long as there are no accidents, they should be almost there!"

"Commander, why don't you and the deputy commander go to the city gate cave to rest first, and I'll call you over when he arrives!"

"No!" The commander refused without hesitation.

"Comrade Wang Ping deserves me to wait for him here, even if he stands here and waits for one night!"

Until this time, there were still only four of the commander-in-chief, the deputy commander-in-chief, the commander-in-chief, and Vice Minister Li who knew what Wang Ping had done in Beiping, and that Wang Ping had brought back a big surprise to Yan'an, and was on his way back to Yan'an at this moment.

Therefore, as soon as the commander-in-chief finished speaking, a leader next to him couldn't help but ask: "Commander, I have heard you mention this Comrade Wang Ping." He seems to be just a regiment-level cadre, how can he be qualified to wait for him here with a few of you! ”

"It's definitely worth it, and when you see what he brought back, you won't have such doubts!" The commander-in-chief did not explain, but replied very confidently.

The commander does not say anything, and the chief can only shift his gaze to the deputy commander.

"Deputy Commander, after waiting for so long, it's time to tell us why we have waited here for so long!"

The deputy commander did not hide it, and briefly introduced: "You should have heard about several things that happened in Beiping City during this time, right?" ”

"Yes!" The chief who had just spoken affirmed.

"In more than two months, six or seven traitors died in Beiping, five of whom were notorious traitors. In addition, several little devil merchants died. By the way, the headquarters of the Japanese North China Front Army was shelled by unknown shells, and two major generals and a large number of junior officers were killed! ”

"One more thing!" The deputy commander said.

"The North China Front of the Japanese Army has issued an order to end the assassination of commanders at all levels of our Eighth Route Army!"

"Why?" Several leaders who didn't know the reason looked at the deputy commander at the same time, showing shocked expressions.

From the expression of the deputy commander at this moment, they vaguely guessed in their hearts that this matter was related to Wang Ping.

However, an ordinary regimental-level cadre of the Eighth Route Army made the Japanese North China Front compromise and bow to the Eighth Route Army. In either way, it seems impossible to do so, and I don't dare to connect them.
