Bright Sword: Japs, times have changed

In order to prevent Qian Bojun and others from becoming suspicious, when the soldiers separated, Lin Qiang ordered all the weapons to be placed outside the camp, leaving only a small team to guard them.

This small action made Qian Bojun appreciate Lin Qiang even more. He was not only capable, but also very sensible.

It's just a bit too greedy.

"Commander, I will let the brothers go back to visit their families."

Lin Qiang said at the end: "If you have any urgent matters, please arrange them now so that you won't be unable to find me later."

"Go."

Qian Bojun smiled and replied, "No matter how important it is, we have to wait until you finish visiting your relatives."

"Thank you very much, Captain!"

Lin Qiang left first, and the other soldiers followed closely and scattered.

Qian Bojun also turned and left, but after turning around, the smile on his face faded a little: "This Lin Qiang is really greedy. This is good. The greedier the person, the easier it is to control."

Zhang Fugui had a different opinion on this, but he also noticed the battalion commander's admiration for Lin Qiang. After much hesitation, for the sake of the entire plan, he finally spoke up, "Battalion commander, this kind of person is actually a double-edged sword. If used well, he can defeat thousands of enemies. If used poorly, he might backfire!"

"What do you want to say?"

Qian Bojun asked, "Why, are you afraid that this guy will turn against you?"

"I'm not worried about that."

Zhang Fugui said worriedly, "People like Lin Qiang are greedy and easy to control, but if he can turn to us for profit, he will also turn to others for profit."

Qian Bojun didn't seem worried about this and seemed confident that such a thing would not happen.

Seeing this, Zhang Fugui asked, "Captain, is it possible that you have some method that I don't know about?"

“No means.”

Qian Bojun smiled confidently: "But I am sure that Lin Qiang will not betray me."

As for why, Qian Bojun did not continue to speak. Zhang Fugui wanted to ask, but he obviously knew that the battalion commander deliberately did not want to say it.

After the two men walked away, the soldier in charge of observation walked to the back of a house where Lin Qiang, Hu Zi and others were.

Seeing the soldiers appear, Lin Qiang asked, "How is it? Have they all gone back?"

"Yes, Qian Bojun and others have already gone back."

Hearing this, Lin Qiang turned around and ordered the others, "After nightfall, each of you will lead a team to surround Qian Bojun's barracks. Remember, those with red bands tied around their wrists are ours. Anyone without a red band will be tied up!"

"Wu Zhe, the weapons of the first battalion are now handed over to you. With your identity, it will be easy to do this."

Wu Zhe nodded and said, "Don't worry about that. I already had people start the operation yesterday. Anyway, Qian Bojun hasn't had the team train for a while, so he doesn't know how many people are missing."

Long after Wu Zhe told Lin Qiang that they were returning to the camp, he had already begun to deal with those who were determined to follow Qian Bojun and surrender to the enemy, and he secretly dealt with quite a few people throughout the day.

Most of them were tied up and locked up in a room not far from the camp. They would not starve to death even if they did not eat for seven days. Wu Zhe placed two large basins of water in the room, and there were people guarding them, so they would not die of thirst or hunger.

He left these people to Chu Yunfei to deal with as a way of repaying his kindness. From then on, Wu Zhe had nothing to do with the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army.

If we have to mention one, it would be the anti-Japanese war team that belongs to the same combat sequence.

After repeated confirmation, everyone knew their responsibilities. Lin Qiang finalized the plan: "Remember, as soon as you get my signal, take action immediately!"

The signal for action was the red signal gun carried by Lin Qiang.

This batch of signal guns were seized from the Japanese warehouse. Lin Qiang thought that they would hardly be of use, but he didn't expect that they would come in handy so soon.

The story of visiting relatives was not entirely false. The Shanxi-Suiyuan Army was dragged into the water in the first place in order to protect the people. There were more than a dozen soldiers' relatives in the team who were arranged in this Dagu Town by the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army.

Therefore, Lin Qiang was not worried that Qian Bojun would send someone to watch him secretly.

After all, this matter is not fake.

However, it seems that it is because Lin Qiang's acting skills are very good. After repeated observation, it was confirmed that Qian Bojun did not send anyone to monitor him. It seems that he trusts Lin Qiang very much.

This gave Lin Qiang great convenience. Since this was the case, he must not let Qian Bojun down.

“Remember what you are going to do!”

Lin Qiang whispered, "Everyone disperse!"

"Yes!"

Although Dagu Town seems peaceful and tranquil, it has actually been experiencing undercurrents for a long time.

A row of soldiers were moving and hiding quickly, ready to take action at any time. After Wu Zhe returned to the camp, he also started his plan, changing the lock of the armory and locking it with several more locks.

Ensure that after the incident, Qian Bojun’s men will not be able to get weapons to resist in the first place.

Everything was going according to plan, but what happened next disrupted Lin Qiang's plans.

In the afternoon, the forward observation post rushed directly into the camp on horseback. Lin Qiang, who was observing secretly, realized that something urgent must have happened.

Sure enough, a minute later, Qian Bojun and Zhang Fugui rushed out of the house, shouting, "Pass my order! Gather outside the town fully armed!"

"Five minutes from now, those who haven't arrived yet will be subject to court-martial!"

"So what happened?"

In the dark, Lin Qiang muttered to himself.

Just as he was wondering whether he should ask, he heard Qian Bojun shout, "Go, tell me to inform Lin Qiang and have him bring his men to gather outside the town. If he doesn't want to, tell him I'll give him ten yellow croakers later!"

"Yes!"

This put Lin Qiang in a dilemma. According to his previous personality, no matter what he was doing, he would agree without hesitation when he heard the reward of ten yellow croakers.

But now the team has dispersed and is ready. Lin Qiang is worried that his move will cause the entire plan to fail.

The one who was in even more trouble than him was Wu Zhe. He had locked the door of the armory in several ways, and he had hidden the key in a place only he knew.

If I go to get it now, I will definitely be discovered. But if I don't go, and wait for news from the armory, I can just ask and find out that it was me who went to the armory.

Both of them were in a dilemma, but just at this moment, Qian Bojun shouted again: "What's wrong with the team? It's been so long and no one has come out?"

"I'm going to see what's going on!"

Zhao Shan set out to check the situation. Before he could take a few steps, a sentry came up to report: "Report to the battalion commander, the Japanese have entered our defense zone and are less than five miles away from the town!"

"Damn it!"

Qian Bojun cursed: "What's wrong with this little guy? How dare he rush into our defense zone so openly!"

"Commander, in my opinion, this is definitely not an ordinary matter!"

Zhang Fugui analyzed, "We've already reached an agreement. As long as we wait for the right opportunity, we can legitimately leave the Shanxi-Suiyuan Army and join the Japanese. Logically, Xiao Ye wouldn't act like this at this critical moment. I suspect it's because of yesterday's ambush."

Qian Bojun was shocked after hearing this and said, "This bastard, he didn't think that the ambush was planned by me, did he?"

"It doesn't matter, as long as we explain it clearly."

Just as Zhang Fugui finished speaking, Zhao Shan came back and said, "Report to the battalion commander, I don't know who locked the warehouse, and put four locks on it. I'm having someone question them."

"Check it for me!"

Qian Bojun cursed angrily, "Find out who did this, chop off his hands, and gouge out his eyes!"

Now he seems to have a lot of kung fu but no chance to use it.

If we really take the team to confront Ono, it is possible that the plan will be ruined. But if we take a few men with us, we are worried that Ono will not be able to convince us and that a fight will start if we disagree.

Zhang Fugui saw the battalion commander's concerns and continued to offer advice: "Battalion commander, in my opinion, no matter what Xiaoye's reason for coming, it must be a misunderstanding in the end. If we also go with a fully armed team, Xiaoye will probably think we are guilty!"

Qian Bojun asked anxiously: "Then tell me, what should we do?"

"Otherwise, just bring a few guards."

Zhang Fugui analyzed, "As long as Xiaoye sees that we don't have a team with us, he'll naturally think he misunderstood. This is a bit risky."

The situation was urgent, and Qian Bojun could no longer care about anything else. He immediately agreed to the proposal: "Let's do as you say!"
