Secret War Silent

"Wait for me alone?" Luo Yao was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly said, "Then what are you waiting for, tell everyone, let's go right away."

"Yes!"

"Team Leader Fang, Team Leader Fang..." Luo Yao simply cleaned up and prepared the small building, Wei Zhiming ran in.

"Commander Wei, what's the matter?"

"I just got the news that there was a sudden heavy rain in Ankang and other areas in the upper reaches of the Han River, and the river surged. If you want to go directly to Shaanxi by waterway, I'm afraid it will be impossible!" Wei Zhiming said.

"Ah!" Luo Yao exclaimed in surprise, this was beyond his expectation, going up the Han River and entering Shanxi by boat was one of the reasons why he chose.

Unexpectedly, a heavy rain upstream completely blocked this plan, so the only way to go was by land.

The land route has to go around, and it takes hundreds of kilometers to travel. It is impossible to add three to five days to the journey.

"Then I have no choice but to go by land." Luo Yao shook his head helplessly.

"Yes, if you can wait, you can wait for this wave of heavy rain to pass before leaving?" Wei Zhiming suggested.

"I'm afraid it won't work. If the rain keeps falling, we won't be able to leave." Luo Yao shook his head.

"Then you can only go by land."

"That's the only way!" Luo Yao nodded helplessly.

Well prepared, all equipment loaded on pack horses, wrapped in waterproof tarpaulins, as well as everyone's luggage, tents, dry food, etc.

A team of 30 people is not small.

There are also two special people in the team, one is the captured Yagyu Yoshizawa, who is placed in a special car.

The other Zhang Yuanliang was treated slightly better. He did not lose all his freedom like Yoshizawa Yagyu, but he was also handcuffed.

Outside the town, on the road to the north, Li Haihuai brought people over to see Luo Yao off, and Tan Xin was also seen in the team, who is now Li Haihuai's person.

Li Delin, the representative of Huangxue Village, also came over.

"Brother You Ning, this farewell, I don't know when I will see you again." Li Haihuai said with emotion.

"Brother Haihuai returns to the mountain city to report on his work, we will see you again then." Luo Yao chuckled.

"Yes, hahaha!"

"Farewell, take care!"

"Take care of yourself!"

"Get on the horse, let's go!" Luo Yao waved his hand, and the whole team started slowly, moving forward along the main road, and embarked on the road back to the mountain city.

When you come here, you take the waterway, and when you go back, you take the land road, which can be regarded as not going back.

In order to save animal power, the marching speed of the team is not fast. Moreover, the weather is hot and sweats a lot. If the journey is too fast, both people and livestock are prone to heat stroke.

To the north, it is towards Nanyang, then turn west, and enter Shaanxi through the narrow and long passage between Funiu Mountain and the southern foot of Qinling Mountains.

On the first night, arrive in Xinye for accommodation.

In this battle of Xinye, China and Japan fought repeatedly, and after changing hands several times, they were lost and regained. After the war, Xinye City was full of ruins and ruins.

Although Xinye was finally taken back by the national army, it was still seriously injured. If it wanted to restore the bustling and bustling before, it might not be possible in a few years.

"Tiger, after dinner, let everyone rest early, we will rush to Neixiang tomorrow, and start at dawn!" Luo Yao instructed Yang Fan.

"Okay, brother." Yang Fan agreed and went out to deliver the order.

"Old Yan, we will leave the border of the Fifth War Zone tomorrow, everyone must be careful what they say, don't have any quarrels with the locals, and the main thing is to be patient." Luo Yao called Yang Si, Wen Xueren, etc. In your own room, give instructions.

"I know, there is a commander in Wanxi, we have to walk on his ground along the way." Yang Si chuckled.

"Well, these local emperors, we avoid them whenever we can, and let us in whenever we can. Anyway, we are just passing by." Luo Yao said.

"Yes."

"Yiming, report the family's safety, just leave two people to guard the radio station on duty, and let the others sleep for me." Luo Yao instructed Wen Xueren.

"Okay, team leader."

"It's okay, let's go."

There was nothing to do all night, and the next day I got up when I cleaned it. I took advantage of the cool weather to hurry, and when the sun came up, I rested, so that people and livestock could be more comfortable.

The breakfast is steamed buns and porridge. Although it is not very rich, it is better than most people.

Entering Wanxi, the road is relatively easy to walk. It has not been damaged by the Japanese army, and the living standards of the people are obviously better.

The road is easy to walk, and the speed of traveling is much faster.

The plan is to arrive in Neixiang within a day, and now it seems that it will not be too difficult to achieve this plan.

In the evening, the team entered Neixiang County, which was actually much more lively than Xinye City, there were still many pedestrians on the street, the clothes of the common people were much better, and the complexion on their faces was also different.

This Commander Wanxibie really has his own way, Luo Yao has no interest in these things, they are just passers-by.

Luo Yao and the others had a lot of people and many pack horses, but they caused a little trouble when they went to the city to pay taxes.

The tax collector wanted to inspect the goods and salutes that Luo Yao and the others were carrying. Of course, this was not acceptable. The salutes they carried were all radio communication equipment and weapons. How could they be shown to others?

Fortunately, they had a pass issued by Li Delin, which played a key role. When the tax collectors saw such a high-level pass, they dared not deal with it, and immediately reported it to the Wanxi [-]th County Joint Defense Command.

Soon, a release order came down.

This commander and Li Delin have a good personal relationship, and seeing that the pass was signed by Li Delin himself, it is natural that he is allowed to pass tax-free.

Luo Yao didn't even think about going to see the Emperor of Wanxi, but the Commander Bie sent someone over. When he knew that Luo Yao and his party were just passing through Wanxi, they even sent Cheng Yi a letter.

Naturally, Luo Yao refused to accept money from others for no reason. After refusal, they waived their food and lodging expenses in the inner city.

Luo Yao had no choice, the kindness was hard to turn down, if he didn't accept it, he would lose face, he knew that he was looking at Li Delin's face, and had nothing to do with him at all.

After a good night's rest in Neixiang, Yang Fan bought some missing supplies by the way, and continued on his way to Xixia early the next morning.

Two days later, the team arrived at Wuguan in Shaanxi. The scene here was completely different from Wanxi.

Shaanxi is Jiang Dingwen's territory. This person is very senior, and he is a first-year student in Huangpu, so he is highly valued by the old man.

His current freshman is different from those white bodies who entered Whampoa. When he entered Whampoa, he had already become a colonel's staff officer. When he entered Whampoa, he was the district captain of the second team of the first phase. With some talent, he has the reputation of "parachutist".

Luo Yao has nothing to do with such a big official in the frontier, and he will not rush to hug the opponent's thigh.

If he wants to hug the thigh, it's better to hug the old man directly.

However, there is another person in the eighth war zone, he must pay a visit, that is Hu Yisheng, the commander-in-chief of the 34th Army Group, he is not only the old man's favorite student, but also the sworn brother of his boss Dai.

In Hu Yisheng's army, there were quite a few military commanders who served in it, and among the spies who graduated from the temporary training class, several of them went to Hu Yisheng's command.

It is well known that Dai Yunong and Hu Yisheng have a good relationship.

Hu Yisheng's 34th Army Headquarters was located in Shangluo (made up), which happened to be on Luo Yao's way back to Sichuan. When he passed by, he didn't say hello and was not very polite.

Hu Yisheng obviously knew that Luo Yao was passing by, and Dai Yunong had greeted him. He knew Luo Yao's team as soon as they entered Shangluo City.

Luo Yao planned to rest in Shangluo for half a day before setting off, so after he had settled down, he changed into military uniforms, and took Yang Fan and the two to the 34th Army General Headquarters to ask for a visit.

He didn't know if Hu Yisheng was here or if he would see him. Anyway, according to the etiquette, he had been here before, and it was fine when the etiquette arrived.

"Team Leader Fang, Chief Hu welcomes you!" The post was posted, and within a short while, a major officer came out and invited him in very politely.

Luo Yao quickly tidied up his military uniform, instructed Yang Fan, and then walked in with the major officer.

He had seen Hu Yisheng before, otherwise, he wouldn't have come to visit rashly.

"Hello, Mr. Hu!"

"Youning is here, sit down. Yu Nong called me the day before yesterday, telling me that you will pass through Shaanxi and then return to the mountain city." Hu Yisheng is not tall, wearing a lieutenant general uniform, half a head shorter than Luo Yao, But he looks gentle and polite, like a Confucian general.

"It's causing trouble to Chief Hu."

"No trouble, what trouble can there be?" Hu Yisheng chuckled, "Has the team settled down yet?"

"A big car shop in the west of the city, the place is big and spacious, just enough to fit in."

"Alright." Hu Yisheng nodded, "Have you eaten yet? If not, I'll ask someone to cook some dishes for you. Let's have a drink. When we were in the mountain city, I wanted to talk to you about the security of this secret communication." The only thing is that there is no such opportunity.”

"I'll follow the arrangement of Chief Hu!" Luo Yao nodded.

"That's right." Hu Yisheng called the adjutant in, gave instructions, and then dragged Luo Yao to discuss the safety of secret telegram communication.

Of course, what Hu Yisheng was more interested in was the one and a half months of battle between the Fifth War Zone and the Japanese 11th Army in Northwest Hubei.

Luo Yao was the one who experienced it firsthand, and the explanation in person is much more detailed than what he learned from the battle report. Many details will not be mentioned in the battle report, but the details are the key to victory or defeat.

What Hu Yisheng wanted to know were the details of the battle. His troops might be sent to the front line to fight the Japanese army at any time. As a general, he naturally wanted to know more about his opponent.

Chapter 0817 Lychee Road

Luo Yao never expected that Hu Yisheng would be so addicted that he dragged him into the war room to talk all night.

After several days of rushing and staying up all night, Luo Yao really couldn't bear it.

In this way, I slept in the 34th Army Headquarters.

Wake up.

Seeing the bright sun outside, he was startled, he hadn't returned all night, I'm afraid Yang Si, Wen Xueren and the others should be worried.

Fortunately, he ordered to rest for half a day in Shangluo.

An orderly came in and brought water and towels to wash his face. Luo Yao asked, "Brother, where am I?"

"Hi sir, this is the bedroom of our Chief Hu!"

"What?" Luo Yao almost spit out the water from his mouth and ears, and actually lay down in Hu Yisheng's room and fell asleep?

"Brother You Ning, you are awake. If you don't wake up again, your men will soon tear down my room!" Before Luo Yao could continue to ask, Hu Yisheng's voice came from outside.

"Mr. Hu, why did I sleep in your room..."

"I think you're tired, so let someone send you to me. I'm different from you. In a war, it's okay to stay up for days and nights." Hu Yisheng laughed.

"Thank you, Chief Hu. I have been out for such a long time, and I should go back. Otherwise, I will delay my trip back."

"Are you leaving today?"

"Well, we agreed to rest for half a day." Luo Yao said.

"Which way do you take to enter Sichuan?" Hu Yisheng asked.

"Let's go to the Lychee Road. The Lychee Road can go directly to Fuling, and then it will be closer to the mountain city from Fuling." Luo Yao said.

"Okay, then stay for lunch, and then I'll send someone to take you back." Hu Yisheng said without doubt.

Can Luo Yao not agree?I had no choice but to agree, called Yang Fan over, and asked him to go back and report to Yang Si and the others, so that they were ready to go after lunch.

……

After lunch, Hu Yisheng sent his adjutant to drive Luo Yao back, and accompanied Luo Yao and the 401 team all the way out of Shangluo County.

All the way to the west, after dark, arrived at Blue Bridge Town.

"Brother, when we entered the town, someone sneaked behind us." He found a hotel and stayed.

Yang Fan came over and reported.

"I know, let everyone be more vigilant, and add an extra secret whistle at night." Luo Yao nodded, and when he was away from home, there was nothing wrong with being extra vigilant.

"Understood, it's too poor here." Yang Fan nodded, the folk customs in places that are too poor are more sturdy.

As the saying goes, hunger and cold make people steal their hearts, people can't eat enough, they can't live, so naturally they can do anything.

Sure enough, a group of thieves sneaked into the inn at night, and what awaited them naturally would not end well.

How could Yang Fan be so merciful that he sent all these thieves to the police station in the town.

Luo Yao and the others were carrying the pass issued by Hu Yisheng. The people in the police station were naturally very polite. They didn't have the guts to offend the military.

This is just a blip.

But it was also tossing that the big guys didn't have a good rest in the middle of the night. They set off again early the next morning and arrived in Lantian County half a day later.

Did not go into the city, just took a short break at noon, and detoured to the west.

Xijing is here.

The ancient capital of Xijing, the largest city in the west, has always been the political and cultural center of the country before the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms.

Since the Anti-Japanese War, a large number of refugees from North China and the Central Plains have poured in, and the population of Xijing City has skyrocketed, giving birth to great prosperity.
