"Hey, Brother Guo, that kid's out. Should we shoot?"

Upon seeing Lu Chen emerge, Wang Xiaohu immediately nudged Guo Zhiyuan beside him.

Guo Zhiyuan had just finished smoking one cigarette and lit another with the still-burning butt when he heard Wang Xiaohu's words and looked up.

"Why are you firing? There aren't any Japanese soldiers, why are you firing?"

Before Guo Zhiyuan could speak, a dignified voice came from behind them. Turning around, they saw Wang Deming.

"Commander, what brings you here?"

Upon seeing Wang Deming, Guo Zhiyuan immediately shoved the cigarette he had just lit into the other man's mouth, while simultaneously lighting one for himself.

"Hey? Asahi? You little brat."

Wang Deming took a puff, glanced at the brand of the cigarette, and immediately understood that Guo Zhiyuan had gone to touch the Japanese soldiers' corpses again.

During this period, the Japanese army's logistics were quite effective, with each ordinary Japanese soldier receiving 8-10 cigarettes per day.

The army primarily uses Japanese cigarette brands such as Asahi and Pengyi.

"Hehe, I was really out of cigarettes, so I went up and grabbed a few while the Japanese were retreating, and I just happened to get some."

Guo Zhiyuan chuckled, pulled out his pocket, and grabbed a few crumpled cigarettes, some of which were broken in the middle.

"You're a clever little rascal, not bad, but don't do it again next time, it's too dangerous."

Wang Deming first frowned and scolded Guo Zhiyuan, then happily started smoking one cigarette after another.

"Oh? There's someone here?"

Looking down, Wang Deming immediately spotted Lu Chen.

His attire was neither that of a soldier nor an ordinary citizen; rather, it resembled that of a secret agent.

Wang Deming frowned. Japanese agents? Were they here to investigate how many troops we still had?

Wang Deming immediately thought of this. Although it was unlikely that the Japanese army would send someone to investigate under the current circumstances, necessary precautions still needed to be taken.

"Um?"

Lu Chen felt several intense gazes. When he looked up, he saw Wang Deming and the others looking him up and down from the rooftop.

"mouse?!"

Upon seeing the cat mask, Wang Deming blurted out two words.

He would never forget that mask; it was this person who saved them when they were in dire straits last time.

"Rats? Commander, where are the rats?"

Upon hearing Wang Deming's words, Guo Zhiyuan immediately bent down and began searching on the ground.

There's practically no logistics now, and everyone's lost hope. These little rats may be small, but at least they have some meat, so we'll eat what we can.

"Let's go down and take a look."

Wang Deming was too lazy to pay attention to Guo Zhiyuan, and after saying that, he turned around and ran downstairs.

"Hey, Commander, wait for me! Little Tiger, you stay here and keep watch."

Seeing Wang Deming run downstairs without looking back, Guo Zhiyuan quickly took two puffs of his cigarette before finally stomping it out.

As he went downstairs, he reminded Wang Xiaohu to stay on the roof and not come down.

Wang Deming and Guo Zhiyuan ran straight downstairs without stopping.

Sensing the movement, Lu Chen looked up and saw Wang Deming and Guo Zhiyuan standing in front of him.

"What's up?"

Lu Chen was wearing a mask, only his eyes were visible. He recognized one of the two people in front of him, but did not recognize the other.

He had no time to argue with the two of them; he just wanted to get out of this mess as soon as possible.

"I am Wang Deming. Thank you for helping us last time."

Wang Deming didn't know what to say, and after a while he finally managed to utter this one sentence.

"this one?"

Lu Chen raised an eyebrow. Was it necessary to express special thanks for this?

"We're all Chinese, it's just a small favor."

With a wave of his hand, Lu Chen bypassed the two and walked straight past them.

Wang Deming did not stop him, but stared at Lu Chen's back.

"Commander, who is this person? Do you know him?"

Guo Zhiyuan looked at Lu Chen, then at Wang Deming, scratched his head, and asked.

"Do you remember the people who rescued us from the Japanese encirclement last time? And the rat that delivered the message?"

Wang Deming looked at Guo Zhiyuan. To be honest, even now, although he had experienced it twice, he still found it unbelievable that someone would keep a rat as a pet.

"I remember, I remember, I was going to grab it and eat it too, but you stopped me, Captain."

Upon hearing the message from the rat, Guo Zhiyuan immediately recalled the events.

Wang Deming had told all of them about this, and it sounded unbelievable, but those two messages did indeed help them.

Wang Deming nodded without saying much. Since that person didn't want to have too much to do with him, he didn't need to shamelessly try to get close to him.

"His pet rat is very useful in this situation, as long as it's not an enemy."

Wang Deming thought to himself, as a seasoned soldier, he could see the strategic value of Lu Chen, that rat, at a glance.

It plays an indispensable role in both intelligence gathering and combat.

However, he wouldn't force Lu Chen to help him. He would help if he wanted to, and he wouldn't help if he didn't want to, as long as they weren't enemies.

Lu Chen walked out of the war zone, took off his mask in a secluded place, and then returned to the military police headquarters.

"Squeak squeak".

As soon as Lu Chen locked the door, Rat Three and Rat Four appeared out of nowhere and stood on the table, squeaking incessantly.

"Take the rats and wait for my signal before moving. First, move them to the military police warehouse. Tonight, I'll have Rat One inform you, and you can move at least half of the grain there."

As Rat Three and Rat Four had just mentioned, the Japanese army had transported a considerable amount of grain over there. Lu Chen did not hesitate at all and told them to wait for his signal before taking action.

As for the other place, Lu Chen planned to find Zhang Rongshan, get the location of his granary, and then have Shu San and Shu Si move some over there.

Lu Chen is currently out of options; everyone is looking for him and wants to kill him.

Originally, I wanted to wait a while before dealing with Zhang Rongshan, but now, he can't even fully guarantee his own safety, so I have to get rid of him first and make my own power bigger!

After saying that, Rat Three and Rat Four disappeared, and Lu Chen opened the door and went out.

"Xiao Jie, drive me somewhere."

Matsumoto Kiyoko is probably with the Japanese army right now. Lu Chen doesn't know why she didn't inform him this time.

However, in order to ensure that his plan went smoothly, Lu Chen still had to make the trip.

The targets had already been chosen in my mind: Zhang Rongshan and that Japanese company commander!

Captain Murakami Takashiro didn't want to frame Lu Chen, but he couldn't.

The last time I saw Kiyoko Matsumoto, she and Takayuki Murakami were quite close, and it seemed that Murakami knew Kiyoko's true identity, and Kiyoko trusted him a lot.

Therefore, Lu Chen could only choose a squadron leader whose power was only slightly lower than that of Murakami Takaan.

"Brother Chen, this place is full of Japanese soldiers, what are we doing here?"

The car stopped at the gate of the Japanese military camp. The two Japanese guards at the gate immediately raised their guns in alert when they saw the car parked there.

"Xiao Jie, wait here for me, I'll be there in a bit."

Lu Chen told Liu Jie to wait for him in the car, then opened the car door and got out.
