According to Shanzi's arrangement, Shizi and Xiaoru acted separately. The former rushed to Xiazhuang Village to investigate Xia Yu's true identity.
Xiaoru and another scout pretended to be a couple and went to Linshui Miaoshouchun Clinic to investigate Wenhui's family background under the pretext of seeing a doctor.
It was about one hundred and sixty miles from Quanquanling to Xiazhuang. According to Shanzi's request, Shizi left the camp on horseback and rushed to the head of Xiazhuang village at midnight the next day.
Back to my grandfather, Persimmon's grandfather is known as a semi-immortal in the local area. He can fool many people by observing Feng Shui and facial features.
Having been blinded since childhood, Shizi also learned a few tricks from his grandfather, which often confused people. It was precisely because of this crooked talent that Shanzi sent Shizi to Xiazhuang Village.
Leading the horse into the village entrance, he met three daughters-in-law who were going up the mountain to collect firewood.
Persimmon quickened his pace and greeted him with a smile: "Sister-in-law, what is the name of this village?"
The oldest daughter-in-law said: "Xiazhuang Village,"
After saying that, the three daughters-in-law walked around Persimmon and continued walking forward.
Persimmon hurriedly shouted: "Sister-in-law, wait a moment, I have something I don’t know whether I should say to you or not."
The older daughter-in-law was the first to stop: "What are you talking about?"
Persimmon said: "In the past three years, there have been many deaths in this village. People were hanged from beams, jumped into wells and rivers, and even worse, leaves fell on their heads, killing people."
The daughter-in-law was shocked: "Brother, how do you know this?"
Persimmon smiled coldly and arrogantly: "Sister-in-law, it is true that a real person does not show his face, and his appearance is not a real person. Even though we are young and have no signboard, we are half-immortals, incarnations of gods, we can observe Feng Shui and tell our fate. We can predict our fate at a glance. , it is easy to calculate, right and wrong, disasters in the world cannot escape our wise eyes,"
After all the nonsense, the three daughters-in-law were deceived so much that they smacked their tongues.
Persimmon continued: "In addition to the disasters of life and death, young people also have many unsatisfactory marriages, and the women are even more unsatisfied. Some of them are noisy, and some even run away from home."
As soon as he finished speaking, the older daughter-in-law smacked her tongue again: "Oh my god, this brother is so amazing. My sister-in-law is not very good. Just because she said a son-in-law who barged in the door, she ran to the county seat in anger."
Persimmon pretended to be surprised: "Sister-in-law, may I ask your sister-in-law's surname, how old she is, and whether she knows her birthday?"
The daughter-in-law replied: "I only know that my sister-in-law's name is Xia Yu, she is nineteen years old, and she was born on the fifth day of February."
Shizi counted with his fingers and said seriously: "If we only count birthdays, this girl should be slender and about four feet eight inches tall."
Unexpectedly, the daughter-in-law shook her head after hearing this: "Little Master, you are wrong, I have personally measured my sister-in-law, the height is exactly five feet, no less, no less than an inch."
Persimmon didn't have to smile: "So, if there is no time, it is not accurate,"
The daughter-in-law was very interested and took the initiative to invite Shizi to go to her parents-in-law's house to ask for a fortune and tell her fortune carefully.
Persimmon refused his wife's invitation on the pretext of going to the East Village to see Feng Shui.
…
The next evening, Xiaoru returned from Linshui.
In front of Shanzi, Yumei and Zhao Danian, Xiaoru reported the results of the investigation against Wenhui.
Xiaoru said that there was indeed a beautiful girl named Wen Hui at Miao Shou Chun Clinic, who was later introduced by an official's wife to work at Qiaonan Boai Hospital.
Based on Shizi's reconnaissance report, Zhao Danian said that he did not rule out Political Commissar Jiang's view that the troops were discovered by Japanese scouts on their way to reinforcements and should abandon suspicion and investigation of Xia Yu and Wen Hui.
Shanzi said that Japanese military agents were pervasive. Not only should we not give up suspicion, we should also intensify our efforts, formulate new investigation plans and measures, and continue to investigate.
Seeing Shan Zi's resolute attitude, Yumei and Zhao Danian looked at each other and acquiesced to Shan Zi's proposition.

At noon the next day, Xiaoru changed into casual clothes and quietly walked out of the camp while everyone was eating.
Xiaoru's mission is to secretly follow Xia Yu and find their contact point once she appears.
After lunch, Xiaoyan and Xiaosu hurriedly walked into the No. 2 dormitory of the medical team.
Including Xia Yu, seven girls were teasing and joking.
As soon as I saw the captain and deputy captain approaching, there was a sudden silence in the dormitory.
Xiaoyan said: "The regiment headquarters has decided that the independent regiment will dispatch two companies to arrive at Yanglin Town before dawn tomorrow to attack the Japanese garrison squadron and avenge the comrades who died in the battle to support the national army."
Xiao Su continued: "This battlefield rescue will be handled by your second team. Please prepare immediately and gather at the playground of the third company of the first battalion to set off at one-thirty."
After receiving the rescue mission, the health workers stood up, left their seats, and walked out of the dormitory.
The strange thing is that this time is different from the previous one. Xia Yu reminds herself that no matter how important the information is, it is important not to send it frequently, otherwise it will definitely arouse suspicion.
From the time the troops gathered to the time they set off, Xia Yu remained indifferent and never left the dormitory.
The first battalion and third company were on the playground, the second company and the third company were ready to go. Shanzi, Yumei and Zhao Danian were all present.
Jin Ye issued a mobilization order for the troops participating in the operation.
Brothers, in the battle to support the national army, the independent regiment lost a company. Damn little Japan. The blood debt must be repaid with blood. Kill one of our little devils and a hundred of my aunts. Do you have confidence?
The soldiers shouted in unison: "Yes,"
Unexpectedly, as soon as the shouting ended, Jin Ye scolded: "Grandma, you are so big, you haven't eaten, right? Please speak louder,"
The soldiers broke their voices and roared again: "Down with little Japan and avenge the martyrs."
Chun'er then shouted: "Let's go,"
After watching the troops walk out of the playground, Shanzi, Yumei and Zhao Danian returned to the regiment headquarters and waited for the cunning rabbit to come out of the cave.
…
In Xihu Town, Xiaoru hid at the intersection leading to the streets of Heya Village, waiting for several hours until the sky turned dark and Xia Yu was nowhere to be seen, but her hands and feet were so cold that they turned from pain to numbness.
After another hour in the cold, Xiaoru returned to Circle Ridge.
At six o'clock in the evening, the team led by Jin Ye was having dinner in a forest, which was located southeast of Circle Ridge, about thirty miles away.
After chewing two cold steamed buns, the medical team leader and squad leader were notified and came to Jin Ye one by one.
Jinye said,.
This secret training ended here. After returning to the camp, I said that I had encountered a Japanese scout and called off the attack. Who the hell spilled the beans? Be careful to cut your tongue.
In accordance with Shanzi's instructions, Jin Ye led the troops to stay in the wilderness temporarily and returned to Quanquanling Ridge the next morning.
It was less than seven o'clock at this time, the weather was cold, and the ground was cold. Since I didn't bring any bedding, including gold leaves, I couldn't sit or lie down. I would get even colder if I stood still.
Unable to withstand the severe cold, Jin Ye ordered the troops to march quickly and move into Heya Village before ten o'clock.
Yanni and Chun'er followed Jin Ye at the front.
As Chun'er walked, she warned Jin Ye that going to camp in Heya Village was a disobedience order. If someone knew about it, Jin Ye would be responsible for all the consequences, and other people were not allowed to be affected.
Jin Ye got angry when he heard this and kicked Chun'er over, telling Chun'er to go back to the woods.
Chun'er scolded the little hedgehog and continued walking with Jin Ye.
As Jin Ye walked away, he scolded: "Be like a bear, you are too timid to be a general,"

Shanzi was very upset when he failed to catch the prey after painstakingly preparing the trap.
Looking at Shanzi's sullen look, Yumei couldn't help but snicker: "Zikai, the hunting troops have returned. Now that the matter is over, do we still need to continue investigating?"
Shan Zi said: "If we don't find out the final result, Wang Zikai will not be stubborn,"
Yumei smiled again: "Isn't this the result?"
When Shanzi heard this, flames burst out from his head: "Yumei, such sarcastic words should not come out of your mouth. I tell you that if you can't dig out the enemy organization, there will never be any results."
Zhao Danian said: "Political Commissar Jiang, actually it is good to do this or to clear Wen Hui and Xia Yu's innocence."
As soon as he finished speaking, Jin Ye and Yanni were ordered to walk into the regiment headquarters.
Jin Ye was the first to salute: "Excuse me, leaders, what new tasks do we have when we come to the regiment headquarters?"
Zhao Danian said: "Let's all sit down."
After sitting down, Xiaomei made Jin Ye and Yanni each a cup of hot tea.
Shanzi then turned his attention to Yumei: "Let's get started."
Yumei solemnly announced,
According to the proposal of Deputy Commander Zhao and after discussion and decision by the regiment headquarters, Comrade Wang Jinye was transferred to the deputy battalion commander of the First Battalion of the Independent Regiment. While Battalion Commander Song was recovering from his injuries, the deputy battalion commander acted as the battalion commander and presided over the overall work.
The regiment headquarters also decided that Comrade Wang Yanni would serve as the commander of the third company of the first battalion.
Zhao Danian said: "Deputy Battalion Commander Wang, your ability to lead troops has been recognized by everyone. Even the detachment leader praised you as a tiger general. But please pay attention to one thing. Don't be too domineering in the future."
Jin Ye quickly stood up and saluted Zhao Danian: "Yes,"
Shanzi said: "Jin Ye, congratulations on your appointment as deputy battalion commander. If I didn't say anything, I'll treat you to lunch."
Jin Ye said: "It's time for a treat. I happened to go home last night and asked my father for five hundred yuan."
Upon hearing that they had returned home last night, Shanzi, Yumei and Zhao Danian all looked at each other blankly.
Jin Ye regretted that he had let the word slip, and when he came back to his senses, he quipped in embarrassment: "Yumei, Brother Zhao, please don't misunderstand me. It's all Jin Ye's fault for letting the word slip. In fact, he went home the night before yesterday."
Unexpectedly, Yumei burst into laughter and said, "Jinye, are you letting it slip again? May I ask who and Yanni asked me to cut shoe patterns the night before yesterday?"
Shan Zisu turned his gaze to Yanni: "Tell me Yanni, what's going on?"
In this situation, Yanni did not dare to lie and told the truth.
Shan Zi slapped the desk: "Wang Jinye, if I had known about this a few minutes earlier, let alone promoting you to the position of deputy battalion commander, the company commander would also have been removed."
When he saw Shanzi getting angry, Zhao Danian said,
This troop dispatch was originally just a show. It was freezing cold, so Jin Ye led the troops to stay in Heya Village. This showed his care and love for the soldiers, and also reflected his flexibility in adapting to changes.
Even though the roundup was smooth, Jin Ye was still punished, and the luncheon increased from five tables to fifteen tables.
