Mulan County, Xiaolitun,

At the entrance of the village, a horse came running quickly from a distance.

On the horse was a young man,

The two anti-Japanese fighters on guard watched vigilantly.

As the horses got closer, an anti-Japanese fighter laughed and said,

"It's one of us, it's San'er!"

The swift horse came up to him,

The two soldiers greeted each other.

"San'er, the captain is waiting for you!"

"Good Le!"

San'er jumped off his horse.

Rushing towards the regiment headquarters!

"Captain! Commander!"

The sound of surprise was accompanied by a burst of rapid footsteps.

A young man in his 20s rushed in.

"Good news, good news!"

After saying that, he picked up the bowl on the table and gulped down the water!

Kang Huaifu sat cross-legged on the big pit, holding a long pipe in his hand, and white smoke came out of his mouth from time to time!

He looked at the young man with a smile on his face. This was his personal bodyguard San'er! He was also his favorite and most trusted soldier!

Two days ago, he sent San'er to the county town to contact the underground organization!

If the troops want to take root in an unfamiliar place, they definitely need the support of the local people!

"What's going on, San'er? What did you gain from this trip to the county town?"

"I've made the connection! With Boss Lei, the person in charge of the underground transportation station!" San'er wiped his mouth.

"After Boss Lei and I exchanged secret codes, he was very happy and told us to go directly to him at 6pm the day after tomorrow. He will bring Secretary Li of the County Committee to meet us!"

Kang Huaifu slapped his thigh.

"Okay, San'er, well done!"

"Boss Lei knows that we have set an ambush. He keeps praising us and saying that we did a great job! We have brought hope to the people of the entire county!" San'er said excitedly!

The most important significance of the Anti-Japanese United Army's fight against the Japanese was not how many Japanese they killed, but to tell the people that there are still people here who are resisting!

Kang Huaifu touched his flat head and said a little embarrassedly,

"I feel like I lost the battle!"

San'er said,

"Boss Lei also said that there is another anti-Japanese hero in Mulan County named Yan Wang, who also fights Japanese invaders everywhere! He has killed dozens of Japanese invaders in Sangtai Town! He thought he was one of ours!"

"Dozens of Japanese devils? Haha, I'd like to meet this hero if I get a chance!" Kang Huaifu didn't take it seriously. The local people here like to exaggerate and talk nonsense whenever they talk about something!

Mulan County, east of the city, evening,

Lai Fu Restaurant was bustling with people, and every table was filled with diners, making the originally small space seem particularly crowded. It was dinner time, and the sounds of shouting, talking and laughing were heard one after another, and the whole scene was like a pot of boiling water.

Shop owner Lei Fuqiang stood behind the counter, looking at the bustling scene in front of him, and his heart should have been filled with joy - after all, today was another busy day.

However, at this moment, the door of the store was pushed open and three figures walked in. They were dressed in neat black uniforms and had serious expressions. They were obviously three policemen.

Seeing this, Lei Fuqiang's face turned pale instantly. He lowered his head involuntarily and his breathing became rapid. It was as if a heavy burden was pressing on him, making him almost unable to move. Although the customers around him were still immersed in the food and joy, Lei Fuqiang's world was completely frozen at this moment.

Lei Fuqiang turned around suddenly and grabbed a waiter in the store.

"Xiao Shen, go to the door and greet the guests. I have something urgent to do!"

Lei Fuqiang walked quickly towards the back door.

A slow voice came from behind.

A police officer on the left said with some displeasure,

"Boss Lei, why are you running away? Don't you want to welcome us? Today is Director Deng's first day in office!"

Lei Fuqiang covered his mouth, coughed a few times, turned around, but still lowered his head and covered his mouth.

He said in a hoarse voice,

"Sorry, I caught a cold last night. I'll go get some medicine!"

Looking at Lei Fuqiang, a police officer in the middle suddenly had a gleam in his eyes!

"go Go!"

The police officer waved his hand impatiently, looked at Xiao Shen who was walking up, and said,

"Give me some boiled pork with pickled cabbage, stir-fried dried tofu, stir-fried chicken with winter bamboo shoots, roasted eggplant, and a pot of soju!"

After turning around,

Lei Fuqiang held his chest tightly, his face was as pale as paper, and beads of sweat the size of beans kept rolling down his forehead.

The police officer in the middle. He would recognize him even if he was burned to ashes - that was his former direct superior, Deng Feng, the battalion commander of a certain unit of the First Army of the Anti-Japanese Allied Forces! And Lei Fuqiang was once a company commander under his command!

"Impossible... Didn't he die a long time ago? What is going on? Why is he here in a police uniform?" Countless questions came to his mind. Lei Fuqiang felt dizzy, as if the whole world was no longer real.

They had fought together in Baishan County for two years, and in the end only Lei Fuqiang survived from this battalion!

All the others were sacrificed!

Lei Fuqiang walked out from the back door in panic!

at the dinner table,

The police officer who spoke just now, Wang Chenggang, the captain of the County Police Department's action team, said with a smile on his face,

"Director Deng, although this restaurant is not big, some of its specialty dishes are cooked very well. You can try them today!"

Deng Feng frowned. Even though Lei Fuqiang covered his mouth and his voice was hoarse, he still gave him an extremely familiar feeling!

"Is this boss called Lei Fuqiang?"

"Yes, Director Deng?"

"Where is his family from?"

"I'm really not sure about this, it seems to be local!"

Deng Feng shook his head. The figure was too similar. Even with his hoarse voice, he could still hear a strong sense of familiarity!

During the Anti-Japanese War, we were outdoors in the winter and didn't wear warm clothes, so colds were common. Sore throats were a common occurrence every few days!

"So similar! So similar!"

"What's wrong? Director Deng?"

"Looks a lot like one of my former comrades!"

Wang Chenggang knew Deng Feng's background. This time, the Binjiang Police Department specially transferred Deng Feng because the Anti-Japanese United Army was causing too much trouble in Mulan!

Wang Chenggang was stunned.

"No way, Director Deng, isn't what you said just a coincidence?"

"Where does he live?"

Wang Chenggang waved his hand to call the waiter over.

"Where does your boss Lei live?"

The guy said without hesitation,

"His home? I know. It's at No. 42, Anping Street, west of the city!"

"Let's go and take a look!" The professional habit Deng Feng developed in the police department was that he would rather kill ten thousand people by mistake than let one person escape!

Lei Fuqiang pushed open the door.

The house was empty. My wife Azhen and my two-year-old child Xiaozhi were not at home.

Lei Fuqiang started yelling anxiously.

"Ah Zhen! Ah Zhen!"

No one answered.

Lei Fuqiang ran out onto the street again, and continued to yell at the top of his lungs,

"Ah Zhen! Ah Zhen!"

After a while, in a neighbor's house, Ah Zhen dragged Xiao Zhi out after hearing the shouting.

"His father, why did you come back so early today!"

Lei Fuqiang replied impatiently,

"Why are you going out to visit people again? Hurry up, there is something troublesome!"

Seeing the man's panic, Ah Zhen asked in confusion,

"Go? Where to?"

"Pack your things, quickly!"

Ah Zhen and Lei Fuqiang met later in Mulan County. Ah Zhen had no idea that her husband was an underground party member.

After returning home, Ah Zhen was still a little confused. She had no idea what to pack.

Lei Fuqiang rummaged through the boxes and took out some bills and two small gold bars. He put them in a small package and stuffed it into his arms.

Seeing Ah Zhen still standing there indifferent, Lei Fuqiang almost yelled,

"Bring some changes of clothes, Xiaozhi's and yours, don't bring mine, hurry up!" The voice was almost crying!

Lei Fuqiang’s only hope now is that the battalion commander did not recognize him!
