"First, the cage policy. A large number of bunkers and fortifications will be set up along the Zhengtai Line. They will be no worse than those in the middle section of the Jinpu Line. Not only the Zhengtai Line, but also the active areas of your activities will be set up. The purpose is to compress your activity area, blockade your base, and cut off the connection between your teams. At the same time, we will use heavy troops to clear out your forces. The next policy is related to the clearing out."

Chen Feng waited for Yang Qingfeng to digest it for a few seconds before continuing:

"Second, the Three Alls Policy: burn everything, kill everything, and loot everything. This is a military action designed to target your anti-Japanese base areas, with the goal of killing the residents of the base areas, and thoroughly looting, burning and destroying food, fodder, houses and other supplies. Once the action begins, Tada Shun will gradually systematize, scale up and prolong this combat method."

"Do you understand?"

Yang Qingfeng was covered in cold sweat. If the intelligence about the plane just now made him nervous, then these two policies now made him confused. Leng Qiang would not speak nonsense. Since he had made an appointment to meet with him, the information must have a reasonable source. It was too terrible. If the Japanese really succeeded, he dared not think about the losses.

"Captain Leng Qiang, could you repeat it again? I understood the main questions and need to consolidate them."

Chen Feng's mouth was dry after talking for a long time. He drank the tea in the cup in one gulp and said helplessly:

"Record it! Just go back and send the message and don't leave any traces."

Yang Qingfeng quickly took out a pen and a small notebook, and lay on the table like a primary school student, waiting seriously to take notes.

Chen Feng repeated it slowly and methodically, and by the time Yang Qingfeng had memorized it, he felt really tired.

"Captain Yang, I won't keep you for dinner. I guess you're not in the mood to eat. Go back early. I'll repeat, I got the news accidentally. Its authenticity needs to be verified. As I said before, it's better to believe it than not to believe it."

Yang Qingfeng wiped the sweat from his forehead and clasped his fist towards Chen Feng:

"I need no thanks for your kindness. It doesn't matter if it's fake. It doesn't cause any loss to us. But if it's true, it would be terrible. Captain, please stay. I want to go back early."

Yang Qingfeng left, and Lin Chuan came over with a complicated look in his eyes. Did he trust me so much? It was true that I didn't care about politics, but I wasn't stupid! Seeing that the captain was in a heavy mood, I knew that something big must have happened.

"Captain, any action?"

"We don't. The Second Battalion of the First Regiment has a mission to bomb the airport."

The Second Battalion of the First Regiment bombed the airport. Isn't that the Jinan Airport? Lin Chuan couldn't figure out what the bombing of the airport had to do with the Lunan Detachment. Forget it. Don't try to figure out something you can't figure out.

While Chen Feng and Yang Qingfeng were talking, Zhang Liang and the special forces had already approached the airport perimeter. The mine array had dug out a safe area, and the electrified wire mesh had also been hollowed out, so they could drill through the soil inside and enter the airport at any time. There were too many planes, and shadows were everywhere under the illumination of the searchlights. Perhaps the Japanese army only parked them temporarily and did not strengthen security because of the extra planes. It was a pity that more than 200 pilots were not there. They went to the city after getting off the plane. After the special forces company commander and Zhang Liang introduced the situation at the airport, he asked Zhang Liang:

"Battalion Commander, what time do we move?"

"Let's do it at twelve o'clock! Wait until the Japanese change shifts before taking action. After they bomb the airport and the planes, you should retreat as well. Go back to the mountains to rest first, and come back after the Japanese have repaired the airport."

Yang Qingfeng returned to Nishan, said hello to the political commissar and arranged for the telegram. Political commissar Yang was curious, so he followed Yang Qingfeng into the communication room. Hearing Yang Qingfeng arrange the telegram, his expression instantly became nervous. He forced himself to wait for Yang Qingfeng to finish the arrangement, but couldn't help but be curious:

"Lao Yang, is the information given by Leng Qiang reliable?"

"Whether it is reliable or not has to be judged by the head of the headquarters. Our task is to convey the message. Lao Li, at this level, we are powerless. Our only role is to act as a messenger."

"I understand this, but what I didn't expect was that Tada Shun had only been here for two days, but he knew of his plan out of nowhere. It's terrifying."

"This is the terrifying part of special warfare: assassination, reconnaissance, and gathering of information. It's just that the Japanese hid too far away, otherwise their emperor would have been killed long ago. Lao Li, you just heard that two hundred planes were transferred to Jinan Zhangzhuang Airport. I know their target might be Taihang Mountains. I broke out in a cold sweat. Guess what Leng Qiang said?"

Yang Qingfeng imitated Leng Qiang's tone and said:

"Don't worry about the plane. Unless they all run away in the afternoon, it will explode tonight."

"Old Li, if I didn't know the details, I would have thought he was bragging. It doesn't seem like he was bombing a plane, but more like he was going out to set off firecrackers."

Okay, stop bragging for him, but you were the first to tell us about it, which is a big favor! If the news is accurate, it's as much of a favor as penicillin.

At the Eighth Route Army headquarters, the communications platoon received the news and immediately handed it over to the deputy commander-in-chief, who convened a headquarters meeting overnight.

"We've finished reading the telegram, let's discuss it!"

"Boss, if the news is accurate, it is too cruel!"

"Don't talk nonsense. You don't understand the Japanese or what? Let's discuss the accuracy of the information first."

"I think it's true. We don't know Tada Shun or Leng Qiang, but we can get information from special channels, which should be reliable. And once the two policies are implemented, they may really restrict our development and cause us huge losses."

"I think it's true. Leng Qiang is right. It's better to believe it than not to believe it."

"The news is hard to come by, so everyone should keep it confidential first and pass the news to our hometown in northern Shaanxi to listen to their opinions. Also send a telegram to Yang Qingfeng and ask him to find a way to send some support so that the front-line team can welcome them. I heard that they are very rich now."

"Boss, it's too far! It would be a shame if it gets damaged on the way."

"I know that. Forget it. Let's not send it out for now. Let's wait for news from northern Shaanxi!"

At twelve o'clock in the night, Zhang Liang led the special forces team to sneak into Zhangzhuang Airport. Ten minutes later, the sentry on the high ground of the terminal and the Japanese who switched the searchlight were replaced. Several special forces members replaced the Japanese sentry, with the bodies of the Japanese sentries under their feet.

There were two more patrol teams at the airport. The searchlights were always just right in front of them, and the Japanese troops in the defensive positions throughout the airport had no way of noticing. As the patrol team patrolled quickly, they saw something extra on the wings of the planes.

Those who followed the battalion commander to deliver the time bombs and explosive packs were all new recruits recruited by the Second Battalion in the southern mountainous area. They had two tasks. One was to deliver the time bombs and explosive packs into the cave through the entrance at regular intervals. The other was that once the special forces were exposed, they had to blow up the barbed wire and use submachine gun fire to cover the special forces' withdrawal.

When the last dozen or so explosive packs were passed in, several team members inside the cave came out. Like the team members outside, they held submachine guns and looked nervously at the situation inside, without touching the triggers. This was the order given by the battalion commander before they went in, just to prevent them from accidentally firing due to nervousness.

Ten minutes later, the two searchlights suddenly became fixed in two directions and did not move. The team members outside became nervous, which meant that the team had begun to retreat.
