Chapter 620: Excellent Model County

Xiang Chu took the telegram and read it, then said with a smile, "No hurry! Let me first check whether Aoki Jinchun knows that the 'big thief' has been arrested by the Military Control Commission."

After saying this, he sat down in front of the radio and sent a simple telegram to Aoki Hitoshi.

"Three birds! I failed to contact the 'thief'. Poisonous bird!"

After a long time, Aoki Jinjun replied to the telegram: "Poison bird! The 'thief' has fallen into the hands of the Chinese Military Control Commission. You are temporarily responsible for reporting Chongqing's weather information. Three birds!"

Kong Ling smiled bitterly and said, "Sanniao also planted Japanese spies in Chongqing."

Yu Xiaowan shook her head and said, "He has become suspicious of the poisonous bird."

Xiang Chu nodded and said, "Well! Since he was able to learn that the 'big thief' was arrested, he can naturally grasp the weather in Chongqing through the Japanese spies he planted. The poisonous bird assassination team is useless. The key now is to dig out the Japanese spy organization lurking in Chongqing through Zhang Zuoming."

He became excited when he mentioned catching Japanese spies and fell into deep thought.

Kong Ling patted him and said angrily, "Five thousand of her father! This is the business of the Military Control Commission. Don't worry about it when you are on the front line. Think about how to reply to Dainong's telegram."

Xiang Chu hurriedly ordered: "Xiao Wan! Send a telegram to the Military Control Commission. The Japanese intelligence agency has obtained the news that the 'big thief' has been arrested. Zhang Zuoming is undoubtedly the 'big thief'. Have you found any usable evidence in the 'big thief's' home? What is the current weather in Chongqing? Is there any danger of air raid?"

"it is good!"

Yu Xiaowan hurriedly sent the telegram as instructed.

Xiang Chu and others told Dainong that the information about the contact between the "poison bird" and the "big thief" came from the Japanese intelligence agency, and that Zhang Zuoming was the "big thief". If he still didn't believe it, there was really nothing he could do.

Not long after, a telegram from the Military Control Commission was received: "No evidence was found in the 'thief's' home. Today's weather is overcast and cloudy, so there is no danger of air raid."

Kong Ling said bitterly: "He is usually so good at forcing confessions through torture, but now he is pretending to be sick? If he doesn't believe our intelligence anymore, just release Zhang Zuoming."

"Perhaps Zhang Zuoming is not an ordinary person, and many people have begged for mercy."

Xiang Chu smiled bitterly, thought for a moment, and sent a telegram to Aoki Jinchun: "Three birds! Chongqing's weather is turning cloudy, not suitable for bombing. Poison birds!"

Aoki Jinjun called back: "Poison Bird! Your information is very accurate, please keep it up. Three Birds!"

Needless to say, Aoki Jinjun became skeptical about the poisonous birds, and would only believe it if he could continue to receive accurate information.

Yu Xiaowan suggested, "Brother Chu! Why don't you describe the situation of the 'poisonous bird' to Dainong, and let Dainong find someone to secretly play the role of the 'poisonous bird' and put him in prison next to Zhang Zuoming.

Moreover, if we let the 'poison bird' confess that Zhang Zuoming is the 'thief', wouldn't that be equivalent to helping Dai Nong fabricate evidence?"

"It makes sense!"

Xiang Chu nodded and immediately sent a telegram to Dainong as she said.

Soon, Dai Nong replied: "Thanks for the great idea!"

“It’s so strenuous!”

Xiang Chu shook his head.

This matter has come to an end, and what remains is for Dai Nong to do it himself.

The 34th Division marched towards Jiangxin County and entered Jiangxin County two days later.

The people here live and work in peace and contentment, giving people a feeling of being in a paradise.

Kong Ling asked in confusion: "You two! Have we come to the wrong place?"

Yu Xiaowan also said in disbelief: "Brother Chu! Could it be that the bandit has become a good person?"

Xiang Chu said angrily: "It is easy to change the country, but it is difficult to change one's nature! This is a 100% lie. The devils will come to kill us quietly, and then show their vicious fangs."

At this time, Li Tong shouted in the megaphone: "Master! The people here all praise the county magistrate Liu Benshan. He never collects taxes or rents, but he repairs roads and bridges. It feels like a harmonious society."

"Qin Tianbao also changed his name to Liu Benshan?"

Xiang Chu smiled, paused, and said disapprovingly, "Don't worry about it! These bandits are very good at disguise. They are pretending that everything is fine and waiting for the devils to surrender."

However, the closer the large army got to Jiangxii County, the more the people lived and worked in peace and contentment. The chickens and dogs in each village could hear each other, the neighbors cared for each other, and the old and the young were all well provided for. It was like a paradise.

Xiang Chu smiled bitterly and said, "It's not easy for the bandits to fatten the pigs before killing them."

Kong Ling shook his head and said, "I'm afraid these bandits have really changed for the better. Why not ask Chairman Cheng of Hunan Province?"

Xiang Chu waved his hand and said, "You ask! Chairman Cheng has absolutely no idea that the bandits killed all the people in the Jiangzhi County government, and he keeps saying it's a good thing."

"I do not believe!"

Kong Ling said angrily and sent a telegram quickly.

Soon, the Hunan Provincial Government replied: "Jiangzhi County has not been occupied by bandits. It is currently one of the top ten model counties in our province. Please do not disturb us when your army passes by."

Kong Ling pushed Xiang Chu's head and said mockingly, "Look! They are still one of the 'Top Ten Model Counties'. Your information is wrong. Let's see how you end up."

Xiang Chu said bitterly: "What am I going to do? I'll just expose the tricks of Qin Tianbao and his gang of fame-seeking bandits and bring them all to justice."

Yu Xiaowan said thoughtfully, "Brother Chu! How about asking Chairman Cheng whether Liu Benshan, the head of Jiangzhi County, has been to the provincial or state capital for a meeting recently, or whether he has sent anyone to Jiangzhi County recently?"

Xiang Chu shook his head and said, "No need! We must catch Qin Tianbao to reveal the truth."

Shicheng, outside the South Gate.

Doihara Kenji was holding Guan Gong's broadsword and riding on a red Japanese horse.

Two old Chinese men were riding on two skinny donkeys, shivering with fire pokers in their hands.

"Yan Liang! Wen Chou! Give me your lives!"

Doihara Kenji roared, spurred his horse, whipped it, and rushed towards the old Chinese man with a sword in hand.

"Plop!" a sound.

Doihara Kenji accidentally stumbled from his horse, fell heavily to the ground and fainted.

Yamashita Yoshiaki rushed towards Doihara Xian'er, pinched his philtrum, and waved at the two Chinese old men, saying, "Quickly retreat! Don't launch a sneak attack."

The two old Chinese men managed to save their lives and escaped on their skinny donkeys.

Doihara Xian'er woke up slowly and asked in confusion: "Ji Qiu! Where am I?"

"Stone City!"

Yamashita Yoshiaki smiled and quickly took out a telegram and read:

"Brigade Commander Doihara! I order your unit to support Anami's brigade in moving south and capture Hanshou in at least ten days. Division Commander Abe Nobuyuki!"

"Yoshi! It doesn't even take ten days."

Doihara Kenji jumped up excitedly, jumped onto the horse's back, and shouted,

"Ji Qiu! Send a telegram to Gao Qiao Da Zheng and ask him when he can arrive at Han Shou and where?"

"Hello!"

Yamashita Yoshiaki hurriedly took the order and sent a telegram to Takahashi Taisho.

Not long after, he received a reply from Takahashi Taisho:

"Your Excellency, Brigade Commander! We will arrive at Hanshou Potou Port in the evening of the day after tomorrow."

At the same time, Xiang Chu also received this message and asked in confusion:

"What kind of port is Potou?"

Yu Xiaowan said angrily, "Don't worry about it. Send it to Gan Rong and let them find it themselves."

Kong Ling held the last telegram and said thoughtfully, "Five thousand of them! When will the Doihara Brigade attack Hanshou?"

Xiang Chu smiled and said, "This guy will definitely wait until the poison gas bomb arrives before attacking. He can't fight without the poison gas bomb."

At this time, Li Tong's voice rang out from the loudspeaker in the car: "Master! There are a lot of people blocking the road ahead, asking us why we are going to Jiangzhi County. If we are going to harass County Magistrate Liu Benshan, who loves the people like his own children, then let us return the way we came."
