The father of the sword is Kong Jie

Chapter 405 Reporting that the head of the group caught a spy (seeking a monthly ticket)
As expected of the team leader!

After Kong Jie's flanging tactics were explained, all the cadres were deeply moved.

The big raid that had left everyone at a loss, was resolved under such an understatement by the leader, and victory seemed to be at hand.

But I have to say, the regiment leader is too bold, the devils are going to set off a big sweep, and the other regiments are thinking about how to defend, or cover the evacuation of the people?
The head of his own regiment is fine, he actually thought of transferring his troops to attack the devil's lair instead.

But the cadres were relieved after thinking about it, and this was not the first time for the head of the regiment.

The Yamazaki brigade was besieged in Lijiapo, and the devils sent reinforcements from all directions to encircle them.

Kong Jie directly took the main force to take the opportunity to fight to the North China Security Army arsenal, which was similar to the tactics in front of him.

"Captain, your tactic is really ingenious! Let's talk about it, why didn't we think of such a good way?" Shen Quan was filled with emotion.

Wang Leihu snorted, "Why isn't your old Shen the head of the regiment?"

Shen Quan was not angry, and retorted: "That's much better than someone, who can't even move his mind."

"Old Shen, who are you talking about openly and secretly?"

"Hey, that's interesting. Don't you know who you're talking about?"

"You kid..."

"Okay, I'll pinch you two if you don't meet each other." Kong Jie stopped the two of them, while the other battalion commanders and instructors suppressed their laughter. They have long been used to this kind of situation.

Anyway, everyone knows the temper of the battalion commander and the second battalion commander.

Don't look at the fierce quarrels in every meeting, when it comes to the battlefield, the two of them block bullets for each other, and they don't even frown.

This is called being a comrade-in-arms in the heart and not forgiving in the mouth. .

Every time the first battalion commander and the second battalion commander quarrel, in the independent regiment, that is, Kong Jie can stop them.

Then back to the topic, Kong Jie asked the monk to fetch a pencil and began to work on the map. He first circled four or five points, and then gradually connected these points into a line.

"Everyone can see that from the large-scale sabotage operation we launched to the present, the major railways and highways that were almost paralyzed by the Japanese army at the beginning have basically returned to normal work during the restoration period of more than half a year. .”

"From our base area to the county towns around the devils, all the roads are blocked by the gun towers of the Japanese stronghold."

"These highways are naturally the routes that the troops must pass after the Japanese army launched a sweep. Only on such routes can the devils better protect their own safety."

"And once the Japanese army's large-scale mopping up begins, after the mopping up troops move forward, some of the devils in these strongholds behind the Japanese blockade may be transferred out."

"What we have to do is to follow the mountainous route on the map, detour, and go straight to the back of the road leading to several counties of the Japanese army, and then quickly remove the small and medium-sized strongholds of the devils on this road, and attack directly. Yangquan and other counties in the rear."

Having said that, Kong Jie looked at Wang An: "Wang An."

"To!"

"As for the enemy industry department, you arrange in advance. This time, you can expose some people. Just after the sweep is over, the Japanese army is likely to conduct a thorough investigation inside the county. Some marginal comrades in the enemy industry department can temporarily Withdraw first."

"After the attacking troops approached the county seat, they made peace with comrades from the enemy's Ministry of Industry and quickly took down the city gate."

"Yes!" Wang An replied.

After explaining some other details, after the arrangements were made, Kong Jie finally made a final decision: "That's the general direction of the battle, the first battalion, the second battalion, and the third battalion. After your battalion commanders and instructors go back, take the time to give soldiers Let’s do a good job of mobilizing before the battle and get ready for long-distance mountain marches.”

"The Japanese army's mopping up operation should be within two days. The enemy's Ministry of Industry will be one step ahead of the Japanese army and pass the news back. In order to avoid exposure, your three battalions must start before the Japanese army's mopping up forces advance."

"Yes!" Several battalion commanders and instructors responded.

After the meeting ended, Kong Jie told Li Wenjie, who was the last to leave, "The Japanese army is going to launch a big raid. There should be a lot of spies wandering around the periphery of our base area in the past few days. We must strengthen our security work in this area, and we must not allow the devils to attack us." Infiltrate the village with eyes and ears, arrest those who can be caught, and kill those who should be killed."

"Yes!" Li Wenjie replied.

……

That's it, the next day.

A platoon leader from the guard company rushed to the regiment headquarters and reported to Kong Jiehui: "Report to the regiment commander, the militia comrades in Zhangjiazhuang have caught a spy, and they are sending them to the regiment headquarters now."

The monk wondered: "After the spies are caught, they are always handed over to the security department to be responsible. Why should they be sent to the regiment headquarters?"

The platoon leader scratched his head and said, "Company commander, this, this spy seems a little different."

"What's different about this spy?" The monk wondered.

The platoon leader said: "This spy is a woman, and she keeps saying that she is a reporter from the Jinnan Newspaper, what is her name, yes... Shen Wenyue is here, and she is here to find our team leader.

She kept saying that she was not a spy, and she insisted on arguing with our regiment commander, that we detained good people indiscriminately, and that our Eighth Route Army did not distinguish between good and evil.

We were really troubled, so we thought about sending people to the regiment headquarters to ask the regiment leader for instructions. "

"Shen Wenyue? I don't know you."

The monk shook his head. There are only three things in the monk's eyes, one is his body, the other is wine, and the other is meat. Apart from this, he probably can't remember anything else.

Naturally, he would not remember that in the newspapers he had read, the words "Our correspondent: Shen Wenyue" were written at the bottom of the newsletter.

"Captain, many spies have been caught these days, and some of them pretended to be of various identities. Some said they came to visit relatives in the village, and some simply said that they were residents of the village.

I think this reporter Shen may be a fake. If you don't see him, we will take him directly to the security department. "

Kong Jie hesitated for a moment, then said, "Let's meet and bring him here."

"Yes!" The platoon leader responded and turned to make arrangements.

Kong Jie was thinking, is this Shen Wenyue real or not? If it is real, what is this reporter Shen doing in the independent group?
Kong Jie had an impression of Shen Wenyue. The first impression came from the article praising the [-]st Regiment's heroic resistance against Japan behind enemy lines.

Although it was blinded by the [-]st Regiment to the truth of the facts.

But as far as the article is concerned, it is well written and she is a talented woman.

When I thought that the [-]st Regiment was a model of anti-Japanese resistance in the enemy's rear, I did not hesitate to praise it in my writing.

Later, it was discovered that the [-]st Regiment had liaison with the Japanese invaders, and that they were duplicity. When they criticized the traitorous behavior of the [-]st Regiment, it was also sharp and hit the nail on the head.

Dare to criticize the injustice in reality, and have a clear distinction between likes and hates.

In Kong Jie's opinion, there are not many such honest journalists who dare to stand up and speak out. When she was a woman, it was even more commendable.

Not long after, the soldiers from the guard platoon arrived with Shen Wenyue.

Looking at the past not far away, Shen Wenyue gave Kong Jie the impression that she was a very bright and capable woman, with a kind of heroic spirit that most traditional women of this era cannot see.

But she has the face of a rich young lady.

Needless to say about the appearance, after staying in this army for a long time, sometimes the sows look a little pretty.

Not to mention the distance, the boy next to him stared wide-eyed, "Head, I suddenly want to ask for a wife!"

Kong Jie: "..."

"I said, can you be a bit promising, kid?"

Shen Wenyue arrived when Kong Jie whispered a lesson to the monk.

"Leader, people have brought it!"

Shen Wenyue also saw Kong Jie at this time, and recognized at a glance that it was Captain Kong in the photo Yu Ming had shown her.

"Hello, Commander Kong, I am Shen Wenyue, a reporter from Jinnan Newspaper. I am very glad to meet the legendary anti-Japanese general of the Eighth Route Army with my own eyes!"

Shen Wenyue walked up quickly, and stretched out her right hand, apparently wanting to shake hands with Kong Jie.

Kong Jie hadn't moved yet, the monk on the side stood in front of Kong Jie, and said vigilantly: "Head, be careful, what if the spies sent by the devil want to assassinate you?"

The two soldiers who followed Shen Wenyue were also taken aback. Looking at the soft and weak girl who had probably been searched before, they didn't think much about it.

As soon as the monk opened his mouth, the two hurriedly held their guns and blocked Shen Wenyue again. What if the weapon was hidden in an inconvenient place for body search and was not found?
Seeing being misunderstood, Shen Wenyue quickly explained: "Master Kong, please believe me, I really didn't lie, Yu Ming, do you know Yu Ming? Yu Ming took your photo, I saw it once, so I know you You, and here is my work card, and this is the miniature camera I use for work."

It turned out that after the last conversation with Yu Ming, Shen Wenyue had a whim, and wanted to come to the root of the recently famous Eighth Route Army Independent Regiment for an on-the-spot interview to see how the Eighth Route Army fought against the enemy's rear, and this legendary What kind of person is Commander Kong, the commander of the Eighth Route Army?

The reporters of the Republic of China were not only strong, but also courageous.

Shen Wenyue knew that the decisive battle between the Ishii United and the Independence Regiment was in Zhangjiazhuang, so she inquired about Zhangjiazhuang all the way and came here.

As a result, as soon as he entered the village, he was suspected of being a spy and was captured by the militia.

Seeing Shen Wenyue's excited face mixed with anxiety, Kong Jie paused for a moment, unable to see any expression on his face, and said, "The military is urgent right now, and in this special period, I can't trust your identity based on your few words. Boss, take her down, lock her up first, and wait until the identity is found out in the future."

"Yes!"

The third platoon leader responded, he is a martial artist, Kong Jie gave an order, and he ignored Shen Wenyue who was eager to explain, grabbed his shoulder and left.

On the contrary, seeing Kong Jie's old face couldn't help but twitch.

"Commander Kong, I'm really a reporter from Jinnan News, not a spy! Commander Kong—"

The sound faded away.

Seeing that the monk was still staring in the direction of Shen Wenyue who had left, Kong Jiele said, "Monk, what are you thinking about?"

"Head, is this little girl really a spy?" The monk hesitated.

"Not like?" Kong Jie asked back.

"I don't know, I just think it would be a pity if it was really a spy." The monk smacked his lips.

"Why, she looks good-looking, do you think it's a pity?"

The monk quickly shook his head, clasped his hands together and said, "No, no, no, master said, form is emptiness, emptiness is form, no matter how beautiful the skin is, it is useless."

"Hey, do you monk still have this awareness?"

Kong Jie couldn't help smiling, then changed the subject and arranged: "Speaking of business, the third platoon leader is a bit stubborn, don't bully her girl anymore, monk, you will explain it to me later, and tidy up a comfortable place." Let reporter Shen live in the house, and arrange two soldiers to protect him, as long as reporter Shen doesn’t wander around, don’t restrict people’s freedom too much.”

The monk was dumbfounded: "Head, didn't you say he was a spy?"

Kong Jiele said, "Did I say it?"

The monk thought for a while, "It seems that there really isn't one."

Kong Jie said: "Looks like I just said that there is a tendon in the third platoon, and I have wronged him. This is what a master leads an apprentice. It turns out that the source of the tendon comes from you, the company commander."

"Don't think about it carefully. If it's really a devil's spy, it's not good to make up your identity. As for telling such an outrageous lie, saying that you are a reporter who came here from Jinnan?"

"In addition, even if the devil sends spies, most likely they won't send a woman over, and even reveal their identity as soon as they come to the door, threatening to come to me. How can there be such a stupid spy?"

The monk said in amazement: "Head, what do you mean, she is really a reporter from the Jinnan Newspaper?"

Kong Jie scolded with a smile: "You don't know what's going on in your head all day long, you kid. After a while, you go to the house and find out the newspaper of the 25th issue of the Anti-Japanese National News. It's called Shen Wenyue."

The monk suddenly remembered something, "Leader, I just remembered, there is a person named Shen Wenyue, who reported the news of the [-]st regiment, so she is?"

Kong Jie said: "Whether it's me or not, you can tell if you try it. Take an issue of the Anti-Japanese National Daily, find the articles she has reported, and then ask her about it. The articles written by her will naturally have an impression. The answer is that it is me.”

"Hey, that's a good idea!" The monk smiled and said, "But, leader, I don't quite understand. Since you guessed that she is reporter Shen, why did you ask someone to lock her up?"

Kong Jie said, "Nonsense, you don't know what these reporters do, they like to ask questions."

"Now that the devil's sweep is imminent, how can I have time to deal with this reporter from southern Shanxi? Also, we don't know whether this reporter is a free reporter or a member of the national army. Some of our base areas The details cannot be disclosed easily.”

"So it is." The monk nodded.

"Speaking of which, there are pros and cons to everything. The reporters from the Kuomintang-controlled area came to our base area. If we can pass on how we dealt with the anti-sweeping situation this time through their reports, it can indeed play a role in the anti-Japanese situation in Shanxi. Good boost."

"In addition, let these reporters take a good look at how we immediately protected the lives and property of the villagers in the face of the Japanese raids, and resolutely fought against the Japanese invaders."

"In this way, our Eighth Route Army will swim without attacking, and the rumors that harassed the people will be self-defeating."

Kong Jie said.

"So the third platoon leader has given you a good explanation, don't treat other reporters harshly."

"Reporter Shen didn't come at the right time, just in time for the devil's sweep, remember to send someone to protect him."

"Yes!" The monk replied...
