Ding Wei then began preparations to find the last Allied pilot, Sam.
The terrain where Sam disappeared is complex, and the surrounding forces are complex. It cannot be
At the same time, they also reported the news that they had found four pilots to the brigade commander, and the boss quickly got the news.
Headquarters.
"Okay, out of five pilots, we actually found four. I believe Ding Wei is really good." The boss praised.
The deputy chief of staff said: "But there is also the most important person. His name is Sam. He is a flight instructor. The Allies specially named him and must find him!"
"I've heard about this too. The National Army is also looking for him. It depends on which of us can find him first this time!" the boss said solemnly.
In addition to the Japanese army, the Eighth Route Army and the National Army also wanted to find them.
358th Regiment Headquarters.
"Damn it, Tuanzuo, Tuanzuo!" Fang Ligong quickly walked into the headquarters: "This is so abominable, those bastards!"
"What's wrong, brother Ligong?" Chu Yunfei was a little curious: "What made you so angry?"
My subordinate has always been elegant and easy-going, and he has never said a bad word since we have worked together for so long.
"Tuanzu, you don't know. If you knew, you would be so angry that you would want to curse!" Fang Ligong said angrily.
"What is it that makes you so angry?" Chu Yunfei asked.
"Regiment seat..." Fang Ligong sighed deeply, and then said: "Based on the intelligence we collected this morning, we determined the approximate location of the Allied pilots."
"It's a good thing. If we can find them, the 358th Regiment will have made a great contribution. The principal has been looking for them and even ordered them to be found." Chu Yunfei said.
"Where are the people? Where are they?"
"If I could bring him back, I wouldn't be so angry." Fang Ligong said helplessly.
"What's going on?" Chu Yunfei frowned.
Fang Ligong said: "When I took people to pick them up, the villagers said there were no foreigners and no strangers in the village."
"What did you say?" Chu Yunfei said in surprise.
Fang Ligong was a little helpless: "Those villagers also said, as if they had made peace with each other, to make way for us to search as we pleased."
"You guys went in?" Chu Yunfei asked.
Fang Ligong nodded: "Go in!"
Seeing that Chu Yunfei's expression was a little unkind, Fang Ligong's heart skipped a beat.
Because Chu Yunfei has said many times that he cannot harass those people and let them live their own lives.
Although he does not love the people like his own children, under Chu Yunfei's orders, the people living in his jurisdiction can live a stable life, and there will be no situation where officers and soldiers rob the people.
Even if necessary, they cannot destroy the village. His 358th regiment is not like other people's regiments. When they enter the village, they act like the Japanese, taking the opportunity to rob the people in the village.
Of course, the biggest reason for this is that the 358th Regiment is a strengthened regiment, and priority is given to both troops and supplies.
"Tuan Zuo, don't worry, we didn't disturb people's lives." Fang Ligong said hurriedly: "We just conducted a normal search and exited after the investigation."
Chu Yunfei nodded slightly.
Other troops were shameless, but he, Chu Yunfei, was even more shameless. The Japanese were so timid that they could not let anyone know that he was a dignified regimental commander who could only bully ordinary people.
"Then, did you find anything?" Chu Yunfei asked.
After asking, Chu Yunfei secretly said that he was stupid.
If there really was a result, how could Fang Ligong be in such a state of defeat?
"Nothing was found. We searched every house and found nothing." Fang Ligong said helplessly.
"What happened next?" Chu Yunfei felt that something must have happened.
If it was just because he couldn't find anyone, Fang Ligong wouldn't be so angry.
Fang Ligong took a deep breath and said: "Just after we searched the last village, I felt something was wrong. How could these living people be missing?
We searched the surrounding areas, searched the villages, and even fished things out of the river, but it was still a bit strange to see no one alive or dead but no corpses.
So after I searched the last village, I didn't leave here, and I sent people to observe these villages secretly."
"What happened next?" Chu Yunfei felt that something must have gone wrong.
"The humble post found that the Eighth Route Army also went to those villages to inquire about the situation."
When he said this, Fang Ligong looked a little angry: "The Eighth Route Army obviously came to look for the Allied pilots, but it only took a few words.
Those villagers brought the people out and gave them to Tubal Road!"
It's no wonder that Fang Ligong was angry. The villagers refused to give him the people he had worked so hard to find. As a result, the Eighth Route Army went and took them away without any effort.
What made him even more angry was that the villagers actually lied to him. There was obviously a pilot in the village, but they actually lied to him.
"This group of unscrupulous people, Tuan Zuo, we are still too nice to them!" Fang Ligong said angrily: "How dare you deceive us and come so close to Tubal Road? This is our jurisdiction!"
Then, Fang Ligong talked about other villages.
The results were similar. The villagers told lies. The pilots were in the village, but they were hidden.
I've been busy for so long, but I haven't caught anything yet.
Fang Ligong went to the village again to ask, and the answers he got were surprisingly consistent.
Who knows if you are fake national troops? What if you are the Japanese pretending to be soldiers?
Fang Ligong had nothing to do. He couldn't just follow the little devil's example and adopt a three-guang policy.
If that's the case, what's the difference between them and those Japanese beasts who are inferior to pigs and dogs?
Some of the literate gentlemen and old scholars in the village could still recognize the Chinese characters behind these pilots and knew that they were here to help them fight against the Japs.
And because they asked as soon as they arrived, was this a place for the Eighth Route Army or the National Army.
Because most of these people have received favors from the Eighth Route Army.
Although the 358th group has not harassed them, because this group is so big and has management problems, there will always be a few bedbugs.
As a result, these people did not want these pilots to fall into the hands of the national army.
Because Fang Ligong did not have Chu Yunfei's order, he did not dare to have a military conflict with these Eighth Route Army soldiers. He could only watch them being taken away.
In fact, what's more, his numbers are not enough, and Fang Ligong is also worried about losing face and losing face.
With the credit for his work gone, Fang Ligong could only return angrily and report the matter to Chu Yunfei.
Chu Yunfei was not as angry as Fang Ligong imagined, and there was a trace of deep worry on his expression.
"Tuanzu, are you not angry at all?" Fang Ligong asked curiously.
Chu Yunfei shook his head slightly: "I'm not angry."
"Why?" Fang Ligong was anxious: "Of the five pilots, the Eighth Route Army took away four, and now only one is left. This is the principal's order, how are we going to deliver the goods?"
"No, I just feel sad." Chu Yunfei sighed.
"Pathetic?" Fang Ligong was a little confused.
Chu Yunfei nodded and said, "Yes, it's just sad."
Fang Ligong looked a little confused.
"In our territory and within our management scope, these people don't trust us." Chu Yunfei looked worried: "Don't you think it's sad?"
"This..." Fang Ligong thought carefully for a moment, then lowered his head and said nothing.
For no other reason, because what Chu Yunfei said was indeed the truth. The people within his jurisdiction actually did not trust him and would trust the people outside his jurisdiction.
"Brother Li Gong, remember one sentence, the one who wins the hearts of the people wins the world. Even the people in the jurisdiction do not trust us and are not willing to cooperate with us." Chu Yunfei's tone was a little sad.
"This incident is extremely sad. The influence of the Eighth Route Army has become so great."
Although no matter who finds them, these pilots will eventually be sent to the Allies.
But if this matter was accomplished by the Eighth Route Army, Chu Yunfei still had other ideas in his heart.
I thought that I, the leader of a group of 5,000 people, could actually become someone else's backdrop. I thought it was impossible if I didn't have any ideas.
"Tuanzu..." Fang Ligong opened his mouth, but the words in his throat could not come out.
"Where have all those pilots gone?" Chu Yunfei asked.
Fang Ligong didn't want to mention it: "I just went to the Eighth Route Bureau."
"Which army I'm asking about, tell me!" Chu Yunfei vaguely guessed something in his heart and asked tentatively: "Is it the 28th regiment again?"
Fang Ligong nodded: "Yes, I asked them and they are definitely from the 28th Regiment."
"The 28th regiment again?" Chu Yunfei was dumbfounded.
Although he had the answer in his mind, he felt even more sad after confirming it.
28th Regiment, 28th Regiment, no matter what news I hear recently, it seems that the 28th Regiment is always responsible. Who is this mysterious commander?
Chu Yunfei couldn't help clenching his fists. He wanted to meet several times, but was blocked by the war.
The more this happened, the more he wanted to meet Ding Wei and see who he really was.
"Setting down..." Fang Ligong sensed that Chu Yunfei was in a bad mood and took a step forward.
As for the commander of the regiment, I hardly admire anyone, but I highly praise the commander of the Eighth Route Army.
But this is also a situation where Chu Yunfei is at the same level as both sides. Now it seems that Ding Wei's ability has surpassed Chu Yunfei's.
This is not a good thing for me, the leader of the group.
"Okay, Brother Ligong, don't talk nonsense." Chu Yunfei waved his hand and said: "Isn't there one last person? I remember there seems to be an instructor among these five people?"
Fang Ligong said: "Yes, regimental commander, four allied pilots have been found now, according to the intelligence we exchanged.
We have identified the identities of the four of them and they are all ordinary pilots. Now we can confirm that the person who has not yet been found should be the flight instructor. His name is Sam, and he has the rank of major."
After a pause, Fang Ligong continued: "But the officer named Sam landed at a location too..."
"What happened to the location?" Chu Yunfei asked.
"The Eighth Route Army, the Shanxi-Sui Army, and the Japanese Army are at the junction of the three forces." Fang Ligong shook his head and said.
I don't know whether to call this guy lucky or unlucky.
"No matter where he is, find him!" Chu Yunfei said harshly: "It's okay if they find the other four people, but this person must be in our hands.
If we in the Shanxi-Sui Army cannot find any of the five Allied pilots, wouldn’t we really be the deadbeats!”
"Yes!" Fang Ligong accepted the order: "The humble position will definitely bring the person back!"
"Brother Li Gong, send a message to Shangfeng." Chu Yunfei suddenly said.
"What message?" Fang Ligong asked.
Chu Yunfei said: "I want to go to the 28th Group in person and stay there for a while!"
"What?" Fang Ligong said in surprise.
"I haven't had much military affairs recently. Taking advantage of this free time, I just happened to go over and visit the commander of the 28th Regiment." Chu Yunfei said.
"But wasn't Ding Wei dismissed from his post?" Fang Ligong asked.
"Removed?" Chu Yunfei snorted coldly.
Ding Wei is a hot potato. How can the Eighth Route Army be willing to withdraw? Even if it is really withdrawn, how can it keep him in the 28th Regiment?
"Stop asking, go and send a message right away, send an urgent message." Chu Yunfei pondered for a while and said, "Just say that I want to go over and negotiate the pilot's issue.
Now is the time for both parties to cooperate. By the way, we can discuss the next combat plans of both parties, exchange experiences on the war, and learn from each other's combat experience."
This is obviously what Chu Yunfei said.
Fang Ligong knew very well that his regiment leader was completely targeting Ding Wei.
"But..." Fang Ligong wanted to say something.
Chu Yunfei waved his hand and said: "No need to say more, just do what I want. After sending the message, I will immediately send someone to carefully search for traces of the last instructor.
If I guessed correctly, this instructor should not be hiding in the village. He is hiding somewhere somewhere.
Just go search in the wild, wander around deep mountains and dense forests, especially places where people can easily get lost. I think he got lost in there."
"Yes!" Fang Ligong stood up and accepted the order.
Chu Yunfei was indeed right.
The junction of the Eighth Route Army, the National Army and the Japanese Army.
The last Sam, who had not yet been found, inadvertently broke into a forest to avoid being tracked by the Japanese army after landing. As a result, he could never get out again.
This forest is like a maze, and even the people who live here don't dare to go too deep.
But Sam didn't know this. After getting in, he discovered that things were different from what he thought.
"Damn it, what the hell is this place?"
In the woods, a strong figure suddenly flashed out.
He has blond hair, blue eyes, goggles staring at his head, and is wearing a flight jacket.
But at this time, he was dirty and smelly, and he no longer looked as heroic as before.
This guy is Sam, the major officer who the Eighth Route Army, the National Army, and the Japanese Army all want to find.
He glanced at an inconspicuous place at the bottom of the tree trunk, his expression suddenly changed, and he walked around and returned to the original place.
All the trees on this road looked the same, and there was no sign of the location at all. Sam was scratching his head as he looked at them.
He naturally knew that this area was very dangerous, and he just wanted to find the Eighth Route Army or the National Army troops as soon as possible.
Thinking of this, Sam couldn't help but think of his four companions, and wondered what happened to them and whether they were out of danger.
Sam took out a piece of chocolate, took a bite carefully, and put it back in his pocket.
This piece of chocolate is his last meal, and he will only take a bite when his strength is about to give out.
Sam also didn't expect that one day he would eat chocolate in small bites.
If I have the chance to go out, I will definitely eat ten pieces of chocolate, all ten pieces together!
Sam thought to himself.
…
"If nothing else happens, he should be in the woods."
A group of figures emerged from the grass one after another, and the leader pointed to the woods in front of them.
