Spy war in the Republic of China, peak undercover

The old farmers still pretended to know nothing.

"The weakest defense point is on the northern hillside. There's only one sentry post there," Lu Yang continued. "The guard changes at three in the morning every day."

After saying that, Lu Yang raised his voice and said, "Since you are really here to collect herbs, I will spare you this time."

"Thank you, sir!" The two old farmers bowed repeatedly.

Lu Yang had them escorted out of the camp, and before leaving, he scolded them, "Don't ever pick herbs here again!"

After seeing off the two "old farmers", Lu Yang returned to his office and began to write a detailed search report.

But at this moment, Captain Takeda suddenly pushed the door open and said, "Section Chief Yamazo, the two people we just interrogated are a bit suspicious."

Lu Yang looked up: "What do you mean?"

“They say they picked it from the mountains to the east,” Takeda said, “but ginseng doesn’t grow there.”

Lu Yang's heart tightened, but he remained calm: "Oh?"

"I suggest sending someone to investigate," Takeda said. "They are likely spies of the Anti-Japanese United Army."

Lu Yang stood up and said, "No need. I just interrogated them very carefully. They are just ordinary farmers."

"But..." Takeda wanted to say something.

"Captain Takeda," Lu Yang interrupted him, "are you questioning the judgment of the Special High Section?"

Takeda immediately lowered his head: "I dare not."

After sending Takeda away, Lu Yang breathed a sigh of relief, but he knew he had to divert his attention as soon as possible.

So he immediately summoned the officers and announced that a large-scale search would be carried out tomorrow.

"The goal is to find Dashan's hiding place," Lu Yang said. "I want three teams to search these areas separately."

He drew several circles on the map, all of which were far away from where Lao Guan might be.

That night, Lu Yang "discovered" another important clue and asked to set out to investigate overnight.

"I'll lead the team myself this time," he said to Matsumoto, "please send your best troops to cooperate with me."

Matsumoto immediately dispatched a platoon of troops, all of whom were the best soldiers in the Quartz Squadron.

Lu Yang set out with these people overnight, which weakened the camp's defense.

On the dark mountain road, Lu Yang saw a faint signal light flash across the distant hilltop.

That was Lao Guan’s response, the action was about to begin.

At dawn, Lu Yang returned with the search team and said, looking tired, "No results tonight."

But he knew that the real harvest was about to come.

Sure enough, just as he was about to rest, a rapid alarm suddenly sounded in the camp.

“Enemy attack!” a soldier shouted in panic. “The north slope is under attack!”

Lu Yang grabbed the telescope and saw a large number of people appearing on the northern hillside.

Lao Guan arrived at the right time and with great force.

But Lu Yang still had to pretend to command the defense, he couldn't let anyone suspect him.

"Send the reserve troops to support the north!" he shouted.

However, at this moment, fierce gunfire suddenly rang out from the east and west of the camp.

Being attacked from three sides is Lao Guan's specialty.

What’s even more terrible is that the elite platoon that Lu Yang took out last night is now on their way back to the camp.

The Quartz Squadron's defense line began to collapse, and the advanced German equipment became a decoration.

At this critical moment, Lu Yang suddenly found that Captain Takeda was looking at him with a strange look.

The sound of gunfire echoed in the valley, and the flames lit up half the sky red.

Takeda's gaze became sharper and sharper, and Lu Yang knew he had to take action immediately.

"Captain Takeda," Lu Yang said in a deep voice, "take your men to protect the ammunition depot!"

Takeda didn't move, but slowly reached for the pistol at his waist.

At this critical moment, a shell whizzed and hit near the command center.

The blast caused the two men to fall to the ground. Lu Yang took the opportunity to roll over and hide in the trench.

"Traitor!" Takeda's roar came from the smoke.

Lu Yang ignored it and took advantage of the thick smoke to move quickly towards the ammunition depot.

At this time, the camp was in chaos, with soldiers running everywhere and explosions one after another.

Lao Guan's tactics were very clever. He attacked from three sides and attracted the attention of the Quartz Squadron.

The real main force is quietly approaching the ammunition depot where the defense is the weakest.

Lu Yang hid behind a pile of ammunition boxes and saw several Japanese soldiers carrying ammunition in.

"Hurry up!" a sergeant shouted, "Get all the ammunition for the heavy machine guns out!"

Just then, Lu Yang heard light footsteps behind him.

He turned around suddenly and faced Takeda's cold gun.

"I knew there was something wrong with you," Takeda gritted his teeth. "Ever since those two old farmers, I've been suspicious of you."

Lu Yang raised his hands: "Captain Takeda, now is the time to protect ourselves, not to fight among ourselves."

"Bang!" A gunshot was heard, but it was not Takeda who fired the shot.

A dark shadow flashed out from the darkness and Takeda fell to the ground.

"Old Ma!" Lu Yang recognized the "old farmer picking herbs."

Lao Ma put away his gun and said, "Hurry up, the explosives have been installed."

Only then did Lu Yang notice that there were several red dots flashing in the corner of the ammunition depot.

"Three minutes left," Lao Ma said, "Lao Guan asked me to pick you up."

Just then, a group of Japanese soldiers discovered something unusual here.

"Enemy!" They raised their guns and were about to shoot.

Lu Yang and Lao Ma lay down at the same time, bullets whizzing past their heads.

"Cover me!" Lu Yang shouted and rushed forward.

Lao Ma's shooting skills were still accurate, and he knocked down two Japanese soldiers with three shots.

Lu Yang took the opportunity to get closer and took care of the last enemy with a beautiful shoulder throw.

"Let's go!" Lao Ma called out. "It's about to explode!"

Just as the two ran fifty meters, a deafening explosion was heard behind them.

The air wave knocked them to the ground, and Lu Yang felt his ears buzzing.

When he got up, he found that the ammunition depot had turned into a sea of ​​fire.

Lao Guan's retreat signal came from afar, and the battle was nearing its end.

The elite members of Quartz Squadron were caught off guard this time.

"Lu Yang," Lao Ma said suddenly, "your identity may have been exposed."

Lu Yang shook his head: "No, I have a backup plan."

He pulled out a telegram from his pocket: "This is what I sent to the Special High Section, saying that the Anti-Japanese United Army's secret radio station has been discovered."

Lao Ma suddenly realized: "So that's why you took the elite troops out?"

"Yes," Lu Yang said, "now I am a victim of being lured away from the tiger's mountain."

The gunfire in the distance gradually died down, and the sky was already turning pale.

Lu Yang knew that he had to make final arrangements before the reinforcements arrived.

"Old Ma," he said, "do me a favor."

Lao Ma nodded: "You say."

"Shoot a few more bullets into Takeda's body," Lu Yang said, "make sure they look like the bullets of the Anti-Japanese Allied Forces."

Lao Ma immediately understood his intention. After three shots, there was no doubt about the cause of Takeda's death.

Lu Yang found another document from Takeda and put it in his pocket: "This is the evidence that he discovered the radio station."

It was completely daylight, and the roar of cars came from the distance. The reinforcements finally arrived.

Lu Yang tidied up his appearance and prepared to go to greet him as an inspector of the Special High Section.

In this battle, he not only helped Lao Guan seize a large number of German weapons, but also perfectly preserved his identity.

The only regret was that he was unable to find the Military Intelligence Bureau agent named Dashan in the end.

But it’s better this way, at least it gives him a reason to come to Changbai Mountain again.
