The situation is constantly changing. Su Yuan, who was originally planning to gather his forces to liberate Ancheng, changed his mind due to changes in circumstances.
As soon as they returned to the village, Li Zhuang and others immediately came to report that the Japanese had sent additional troops to Ancheng and sent a team to occupy Xicheng Town again. According to Su Yuan's arrangement, the small number of troops left behind in Xicheng Town did not resist the initiative to evacuate.
"The Japanese came very quickly," Su Yuan said.
"Yes, Ancheng has an important geographical location. It is the main intersection from the mountains to the east and the plains, and it is also a city on the north-south corridor. The Japanese will naturally not give up." Meng Tian explained.
"How many Japanese have come?" Su Yuan asked.
"The Japanese in Xicheng Town alone sent a small team and a battalion of puppet troops." Chunlei said, "As for Ancheng, we still don't know."
"I want to go to Ancheng." Su Yuan said.
"It's better to send someone else." Everyone advised.
"I have other things to do." Su Yuan said: "This can only be done by me or Chun Lei. Chun Lei is not a local, and his accent can easily arouse the enemy's suspicion. The agents in Ancheng are like dogs with many noses and sharp points."
After hearing this, everyone had no choice but to give up, "Li Zhuang, you should stay here. As for Qinglong Mountain, let Chen Xing go first, he is more than qualified." Su Yuan arranged: "Also, since the Japanese have occupied Xicheng Town, they will have the opportunity to go to Qinglong Mountain."
The intention of our invasion is to protect the country with spring thunder. You are responsible for mobilizing the surrounding villages. When the time comes, the walls will be fortified and the fields cleared, so that everyone can evacuate to Qinglong Mountain."
"Yes." Chunlei Baoguo responded.
"Li Zhuang, you are responsible for leading the people to transform the village and turn it into a combat village that is easy to defend and fight. We cannot give up easily when the devils come. At least we must make the devils pay the price."
"Yes." Li Zhuang responded.
"During this period, others must not only train the troops and improve the combat quality of the soldiers, but also be prepared to fight at any time." Su Yuan finally said.
"Okay." Meng Tian, Xiaoyun and others responded.
The enemy who occupied Xicheng Town was building a watchtower, and the surrounding villages were forced to send out migrant workers. Learning from the lessons learned from the last time they were conquered, the enemy not only prepared to build a larger watchtower, but also cleared the surrounding houses to make the view more open.
Many bunkers were built, with enough firepower to cover an open area a hundred meters away.
"It seems that the Japanese have learned their lesson and are going to attack the growing guerrillas." Su Yuan thought when he saw the increased number of troops here.
As for Ancheng, it is very different from the last time I came here. The Japs and traitors have stepped up interrogations, and there are more Japs patrolling the streets.
"We must find out the strength of the Japanese as soon as possible." Su Yuan decided to go to the underground party Lao Wang who opened a cloth shop as a cover. However, when he arrived at the contact point, he saw that the door of the cloth shop was closed, which shocked Su Yuan.
Has this place been exposed?
He cautiously walked around to find out some information, but passers-by didn't dare to say anything about it. Su Yuan had to try to find out in other shops around him. Finally, he found some information in a restaurant.
The store clerk didn't dare to say anything more. He just stretched out his finger and made an eight sign and said carefully: "I heard he is this. Sir, you'd better not ask any more questions, in case you get into trouble."
Su Yuan was secretly surprised. It seemed that the enemy had not only strengthened their troops in Ancheng, but also stepped up their search for underground parties. Su Yuan put a piece of ocean on the table.
"Sir, what are you..." the waiter said with bright eyes but very carefully.
"It's nothing, I'll give you this piece of ocean." Su Yuan said: "I have some business dealings with this cloth shop, and he still owes me a payment. I just want to ask how the boss is doing."
"Run away," the man replied in a low voice.
Su Yuan felt relieved, and then asked: "By the way, I am also in the fur goods business. Do you know that there is a new fur goods store in the city recently?" Su Yuan remembered that Lao Wang had told him that he planned to use the leather goods from his father.
The fur products that come out are opened in a shop.
"I haven't heard of it. Ever since Su's largest store in the city suddenly closed its doors, I haven't heard of any new ones opening recently."
"This piece of ocean belongs to you." Su Yuan said as he stood up and left. The shop clerk was still stunned. He just looked at the piece of ocean on the table and couldn't believe it was real. He knew very well the current value of this piece of ocean.
.
Su Yuan walked to the street, feeling a little confused at this moment, but thinking about it carefully, it didn't matter. He was here to detect the movements of the Japanese. If he couldn't contact the underground party, he would do it himself.
Su Yuan was thinking while walking on the street. Suddenly, he felt a slight tremor on his back...
