Two days later, it was already after noon. One or two carriages loaded with Chinese cabbage drove into Quanquan Ridge.
After unloading the cabbage from the munitions warehouse, Lao He from the transportation station carried two more large sacks to the regiment headquarters. The sacks contained the guns and luggage seized by the anti-trafficking team.
Sitting at the desk at the regiment headquarters, Lao He was drinking tea while conveying the information sent by Zhu Zihui.
In view of the importance of Qiaonan's geographical location, after the Japanese army failed to attack the independent regiment, the theater headquarters decided to strengthen the defense of Qiaonan and restructured the brigade stationed in Qiaonan into a strengthened wing.
Under the strong recommendation of the division's chief of staff, Ishii, Ando was promoted to captain of the Colonel's Alliance.
According to the new defense plan, Ando plans to overhaul military fortifications in a triangular shape in the three districts of Liuquan, Dianzi and Yanglin, build stronghold gun towers, and recruit local villagers to establish a joint defense team.
Lao He finally said that in accordance with the requirements of the Japanese Theater Command, the reinforcement plan will start from the beginning of the first month of the Gregorian calendar and will be completed within ten days.
According to Yamako's plan, the Independent Regiment will drive Ando out of Qiaonan by the end of spring or early summer next year at the latest, and then aim at Linshui and approach Tahara United.
At this time, after hearing the information from Lao He, Shan Zi felt as if he had swallowed ice cubes. His heart felt cold all of a sudden.

Three days later, the anti-rape team set out again.
At one o'clock in the morning, two carriages filled with grains drove out of the independent regiment.
It was almost noon. The carriages arrived at the checkpoint in the north of the city. With the passes purchased in advance, the two carriages passed the checkpoint smoothly.
About half an hour later, the anti-rape team unloaded the gunny bags hiding guns from Madam Ma's house. The carriage quickly drove out of the courtyard and drove south along the alley to the southern checkpoint and exited the city.
In order to facilitate the discussion, the anti-rape team came to the city for the second time. Shanzi also stayed at Madam Ma's house.
It was noon. Bao Yulian was invited to the Meishizhai Restaurant to have lunch with the anti-rape team.
After the meal, Bao Yulian walked out of the delicious restaurant and took another rickshaw. After a while, she appeared in the plainclothes team.
At this time, Yan Gaoming had just made a cup of tea. When he saw Bao Yulian stepping into the door, he quickly got up and left his seat, and led Bao Yulian to the lounge.
As soon as he crossed the threshold, Yan Gaoming hugged Bao Yulian tightly and said, "Beauty, I finally got you here today. Come to me quickly. I really can't stand it any longer."
Bao Yulian didn't panic or panic. She gently held the hand that was groping randomly and said, "I'm sorry, brother. My sister is getting dirty right now. Please bear with me for a few more days. I have something to ask of you today."
Yan Gaoming reluctantly let go of his hand and sat next to Bao Yulian on the sofa.
After hearing what Bao Yulian said, Yan Gaoming banged the coffee table: "Grandma, your sister Bao's brother is my brother, Yan Gaoming. If you dare to pee on our heads, you will get tired of living."
Bao Yulian went on to say: "Brother Yan, the Liu family has a lot of power. You must send more brothers over, lest the fox fails to fight and makes you a mess."
Yan Gaoming said: "Ms. Bao doesn't know something. In order to reorganize the plainclothes team, the existing brothers are busy recruiting new members. They can send up to five to six brothers."
After thinking for a moment, Yan Gaoming changed his words and said, "But please don't worry, sister Bao. I'll let the new vice-captain Xiao Pingtou lead the team. Even the damn dragon, tiger, lion, and leopard can break their skulls."
Bao Yulian smiled happily: "Thank you, Brother Yan. However, Yanglin is more than 150 miles away from the county seat. It will take three days at the earliest to return. The key is that my sister is worried that the Liu family will retaliate again. She wants to keep the brothers here longer. Japan. I don’t know if it will work out as I wish.”
Yan Gaoming was in a dilemma at first, but he soon came up with an idea: "Big sister, big brother has come up with a good idea. Tomorrow I will tell Xiao Pingtou to take the opportunity to recruit some new team members and bring them back. The firewood collectors will hunt rabbits. Kill two birds with one stone."
Bao Yulian said: "Brother Yan, after this happens, my sister will definitely repay you wholeheartedly."
After Yan Gaoming heard this, he couldn't help but feel elated. He hugged Bao Yulian in his arms again.
Let Yan Gaoming rub it for a while. Bao Yulian stood up and left.

In the private room of Yuming Teahouse, Bao Yulian talked about the agreement with Yan Gaoming.
Bao Yulian reminds Shanzi...
Xiaopingtou is Yan Gaoming's newly promoted vice-captain. He is also Yan Gaoming's confidant. Yan Gaoming obeys his words. If Xiaoping can be won over, eradicating the plainclothes team will be more effective.
Bao Yulian went on to say that although Xiaoping was only thirty years old, he was sinister and vicious by nature. The last time Jin Ye and Yanni went to the city, they fell into his hands.
After a while, they left Yuming Teahouse. Shanzi and Yumei came to Xianghe Hotel together.
After learning about the anti-trafficking team's action plan, stationmaster Li sent Lao He to Quanquanling Ridge to convey Shanzi's message and instructions to Zhao Danian.
Because the first move of chess went well, Shanzi felt happy. In the evening, he came to the delicious restaurant again and hosted a banquet for all the anti-rape team members.
After returning to Madam Ma's home from the hotel, Shanzi excused himself as he was not sleepy and went to the hotel to play poker with Xiao Zhang and the others.
Yumei did not stop her but asked Xiaoru to accompany her.
Shanzi said: This is not a mission. There is no need for others to cooperate.
Yumei said, precisely because he was not on a mission, his behavior was even more suspicious.
Shan Zi had no idea. He walked out the door angrily.
Yumei winked at Xiaoru. Xiaoru followed closely.
Walk to the entrance of the alley. Shanzi turns west.
Xiaoru wondered: "Captain, are you not drunk? Where is the Xianghe Hotel?"
Shanzi choked out: "Stop talking nonsense. Where you are is none of your business."
Xiaoru licked her lips at Shanzi, but did not contradict Shanzi.
Walking into Bei Hutong, Xiaoru finally couldn't bear the doubts: "Captain, where are you going?"
Shan Zi replied coldly: "Go to the drugstore to find Wen Hui. You must be worried about this."
Xiaoru suddenly realized: "Let me tell you. No wonder he is so sneaky now. It turns out that he has evil intentions. He is secretly meeting his lover."
Shan Zi was really angry now: "You know nothing. You just know how to chat."
Xiaoru was still unconvinced: "Then tell me why you went to Kangshou Fang and why you hid it from Sister Yumei."
Shanzi suddenly realized that if he didn't tell his true intention, Yumei would definitely be suspicious of this matter. Because of this, he would become infamous.
Thinking of this, Shanzi asked Xiaoru a question...
Wen Hui was injured because the bandits intercepted her and wanted to do something evil. How could an unarmed and weak woman deserve to be shot by bandits? This is incomprehensible.
After hearing Shanzi's question, Xiaoru suddenly became enlightened and nodded sincerely.

The middle-aged man is still the one operating in Kangshoufang Pharmacy.
When Shanzi and Xiaoru walked in, the middle-aged man was particularly enthusiastic: "Brother Wang, it's a coincidence that you came here this time. Sister Wen just came back yesterday."
Shanzi asked: "Didn't you say she would be discharged from the hospital at the end of the month? Why so soon? Where is she?"
After listening to the middle-aged man talk about Wen Hui's residence, Shanzi and Xiaoru quickly walked into Rongle Gate.
Walking to the entrance of the stairs, the guard made routine inquiries. Upon hearing this, he looked at Wen Hui and said politely, "Please come in."
Wen Hui lives at the westernmost end of the third floor. It is a spacious and bright luxury suite.
On the surface, Wen Hui looked a little haggard. Facing Shan Zi's appearance, she was calm and gloomy: "Zikai, I didn't expect Wen Hui to be alive to see you. Everything is fine lately."
Shanzi answered the question incorrectly: "I heard that you won't be discharged from the hospital until the end of the month. I didn't expect it to be so soon. Where is the injury?"
Wen Hui sat down on the sofa again. Wen Hui covered her left chest with her hand: "It's the left blade. Fortunately, the gun was shot from a long distance. The bullet's penetration was very blunt. It only caused a minor injury."
Shanzi nodded while taking the tea from the waitress.
When the last cup of tea was handed to Wen Hui, Wen Hui ordered the waitress to return to the pharmacy quickly.
The waitress left. Shanzi asked bluntly: "Sister Wen, please tell me why you were injured."
Wen Hui sighed softly and said lightly...
On the third day after returning from the independent group, he was intercepted by a mountain bandit and molested when he went to visit Wo Fo Mountain. He broke away and ran away, so he was shot and injured.
Only one thing Wen Hui said is true...
It was indeed the third day after returning from Circle Ridge, but it was night. Fumi Hui and Kuramoto Ana went to a certain village to assassinate the leader of our underground party organization. During the gun battle, Fum Hui was hit in the shoulder blade.
As for rushing to Linshui to heal his wounds, he accepted the invitation from the head of the organization and took advantage of the healing time to enjoy his personal pleasure.
After listening to Wen Hui's story about the injury, Shanzi also sighed: "I just can't figure it out. Why should I open a pharmacy when I leave a good head nurse? I guess this house is rented."
Wen Hui said: "Last time I came here, you asked me again and again why you opened your own pharmacy. At that time, you couldn't tell me the real reason."
Putting down the tea cup, Wen Hui continued: "Since the penicillin was stolen, Dean Tao was instigated by Ando and tried every means to squeeze me out. So he had no choice but to do it. Because there is no house, the stores are all rented."
Shanzi seemed to feel guilty for the reason for Wenhui's resignation. He hung his head and said nothing for a long time.
Wen Hui suddenly asked: "By the way, Zikai. I heard that there was a shooting case in Xiangmanlou, that the sentry post in the west of the city was attacked, and that Chief Cao was killed in Rongle Gate. You did all of this, right?"
Although Shanzi did not agree verbally, he nodded in acquiescence.
Wen Hui then asked: "What are you planning to do when you enter the city this time? Can you tell me?"
Shanzi said: "I heard that you were injured. I'm always thinking about you. I planned to come to the drugstore to ask for your address and to visit you in Linshui City. I didn't expect to come back so soon."
It was only then that Wen Hui was moved: "Zikai, are you serious about what you said?"
Shanzi then said: "I won't lie to you."
Wen Hui finally smiled: "Zikai, because of your kindness, Wen Hui will die without regrets. Thank you."
Xiaoru got better after hearing Wen Hui's words, so she deliberately interrupted: "Captain, Sister Wen is injured. It's inconvenient to sit here for a long time and disturb her. Let's say goodbye."
Shanzi was indeed obedient. He quickly stood up and said, "Sister Wen. Because I didn't know you were coming back in advance, my hands are empty. Xiaoru and I will come to visit you again tomorrow."
Wen Hui immediately stood up: "Zikai, as long as you come and take a look, Sister Wen will be satisfied. Please don't buy any gifts. Remember?"
Shanzi didn't comment, said goodbye, turned around and walked towards the door.
After sending Shanzi and Xiaoru away, Wenhui hurriedly walked into the bedroom.
Ringing the phone number in the manager's office on the first floor, Fumi ordered Kuramoto Anai to take immediate action. Follow a man and woman who were going downstairs. Check their residence and return immediately.
