Espionage: I became sworn brothers with Zheng Yaoxian at the beginning, and became the Seventh Broth

Chapter 857 Aftermath

At the critical moment, Ouyang Nawen demonstrated her extraordinary mental fortitude.

Just as the puppet army battalion commander heard the phone ringing and was about to turn back to answer it, Ouyang Nawen spoke.

"Battalion Commander Zhang!"

"Can we go now?"

Upon hearing this, the fake battalion commander was taken aback. He was indeed considering intercepting the call, but he decided to answer it first before making a decision.

But Ouyang Nawen didn't give him a chance at all.

Battalion Commander Zhang thought for a moment and finally nodded.

"Of course!"

"Miss Ouyang, please make yourself at home. I'll have my men clear a path for you right away!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Battalion Commander Zhang raised his hand and waved. The soldiers at the city gate who were responsible for stopping and inspecting pedestrians immediately moved the tripwires blocking the road.

Li Beifa also started the vehicle at the opportune moment.

"very good!"

“I, Ouyang Nawen, will remember this kindness from Battalion Commander Zhang.”

"If you have the chance sometime, come to my place, and I'll treat you to drinks!"

Ouyang Nawen smiled with satisfaction. She raised her hand and patted Li Beifa's arm, and Li Beifa immediately started the car.

They slowly drove towards the city gate.

Upon receiving Ouyang Nawen's promise, Battalion Commander Zhang, who was in charge of guarding the south gate of the city, immediately showed a look of surprise and delight.

Overwhelmed by this pleasant surprise, he forgot about the still-ringing phone and the responsibilities he was supposed to bear.

At this moment, all that remained in his heart was the promise Ouyang Nawen had made to him, the vow made by the queen of Tianjin's pleasure quarters.

With this promise, he will receive endless benefits.

Who could blame them when their teachers and mentors were all guests of honor at Ouyang Nawen's gatherings? And who could blame them when all the business tycoons and political leaders in the Tianjin area were admirers of Ouyang Nawen?

The fact that he gained Ouyang Nawen's approval was enough for him to brag about to his colleagues and friends for a while.

And so, Battalion Commander Zhang watched as the vehicle carrying Ouyang Nawen and the others slowly drove out of the South Gate.

And it began to accelerate, showing signs of rapidly departing.

Only then did Battalion Commander Zhang remember the phone in the sentry post, and he hurriedly ran over to answer it.

Upon hearing the orders and the details delivered over the phone, Battalion Commander Zhang was completely stunned. His face turned deathly pale instantly.

He was clearly thinking of Ouyang Nawen, who had just left, and that cargo truck.

"No way!"

“Miss Ouyang is a prominent figure in Tianjin. How could she possibly be the murderer who assassinated General Kita?”

"It's too late to catch up now."

"I can only warn the brothers not to let them say anything out of line..."

Ye Shaohong and his men were unaware of the whispers behind Battalion Commander Zhang.

At this moment, they had already driven away from Tianjin at top speed and turned directly into the mountains at an inconspicuous intersection.

It has completely disappeared from people's sight.

Half a day later, Ye Shaohong and his group of several people abandoned their car and arrived at a dilapidated temple.

This is also the place where they and Li Yunlong agreed to meet up after getting separated.

"It's getting late, let's rest here for the night!"

"You're in charge of guarding the Northern Expedition!"

"Navin, re-examine the single-edged wound and see if there are any signs of suppuration or worsening."

"Tiecheng, go and hunt some wild game. Wenqian, you cook."

After assigning responsibilities to everyone, Ye Shaohong went alone into the depths of the dilapidated temple.

Inside the dilapidated temple, he found the radio that had already been moved there.

The telegram was compiled and sent to the headquarters of the Military Intelligence Bureau in Chongqing, detailing all the events of the day. After waiting for more than ten minutes, a reply telegram finally arrived from the headquarters.

It was drafted by Dai Yunong himself.

The telegram highly praised their assassination operation and claimed that he would personally report the news to the bald-headed Chairman later.

At the same time, Dai Yunong also expressed his sincere respect to the Nationalist soldiers and patriotic civilians who sacrificed their lives in this assassination operation.

Generous rewards and compensation were promised.

Finally, Dai Yunong informed Ye Shaohong, telling them to quickly return to the Guishan City Bureau headquarters.

After reviewing the telegram in his hand, Ye Shaohong took a long breath.

Fortunately.

This time, the sacrifices of Zhou Hai, Qian Ming, Li De, and Li Yunxin were all worthwhile. At least the Nationalist government did not forget them.

After turning off the radio, Ye Shaohong went outside.

He met Chi Tiecheng and Su Wenqian. Their eyes met briefly, and Ye Shaohong already knew that nothing unexpected had happened during his absence.

Ouyang Nawen also reported Shan Leng's injuries to Ye Shaohong.

Everything is going in a good direction.

The only pity is that Li Yunlong and the members of the Swallow Gate have not yet come to join them.

Ye Shaohong was unaware of whether any unexpected changes had occurred.

He could only pray silently that nothing unexpected would happen.

And so, they spent the night peacefully in an abandoned temple outside Tianjin.

When the sun rose the next day, Li Yunlong and the members of the Swallow Sect still hadn't appeared, and Ye Shaohong's heart grew even heavier.

But he also knew very well that they could not wait any longer.

This abandoned temple is rarely visited, but it is only about 20 miles from Tianjin.

It is still within the territory controlled by the Japanese.

If we continue to delay, there is a high possibility that something dangerous will happen.

Left with no other choice, Ye Shaohong made a decision: after leaving Li Yunlong with a special mark, they prepared to leave.

And this trip lasted for three whole days.

In three days, they easily left the Hebei province area using the documents that Ouyang Nawen had previously had forged.

Just as they were about to enter the Shandong province and escape danger completely, an unexpected message suddenly reached their ears.

I learned this news from the newspaper. It's very bad.

The Japanese had a strong grip on the Tianjin and Beijing areas. After several days of investigation, they had basically figured out the information about the assassin who killed Kita Junichi.

They also learned the specific details of the Swallow Gate.

The Japanese devils launched a frantic pursuit and interception of Yanzi Gate.

They also offered a huge reward.

According to the newspaper, Li Xian had been captured by the Japanese, and only Li Yunlong and Li Yunfei managed to escape.

As for where the two of them are now, no one knows.

As for the three Xu siblings, they have an organization behind them, and with the help of the organization's personnel, they have now safely passed through the pass.

They returned to the place where they had always fought.

But the Japanese had already sent men to surround and intercept them.

The Japanese did not publicly announce Ye Shaohong and his group's identities, suggesting that there might be some special arrangements in place.

Upon hearing this, Ye Shaohong's face immediately darkened.

Others might not have found any information in it, but Ye Shaohong was different.

In Ye Shaohong's view, there was only one possibility regarding the Japanese soldiers' unusual behavior: they had roughly figured out their exact whereabouts through special channels.

As for where this information came from, Ye Shaohong figured it was most likely from the Military Intelligence Bureau's headquarters in Chongqing.

Perhaps ahead of them, there were Japanese interceptors who had already set up a trap, waiting for them to fall into it.

"no!"

"We can't go any further. We need to turn around and head towards Shanxi Province!"

"First, break out of the Japanese encirclement, then try to return to the main force in the mountain city!"
