Chapter 1611: Most likely a White Party spy
Willow groves along the Luo River in the western suburbs of Luoyang.
At dawn, Xiang Chu and others entered the forest.
Hiding during the day and moving at night has been the norm for many days as they move eastward.
Liu Zhengxiong suggested, "Chief! We don't have much food left. We might not be able to buy food if we go east. Why don't I take people into the city and buy some?"
Xiang Chu hesitated and said, "You're right! But Luoyang City is full of mixed people, it's a bit dangerous."
Liu Zhengxiong laughed and said, "We're not going into the city to buy some food, we're not going to kill anyone, so what's the danger?"
Xiang Chu nodded and said, "Okay! You take Liu Sen and Liu Heping with you."
Liu Zhengxiong said with a smile: "Three Lius! Very good. Dasen! Peace! Let's go into the city."
Xiang Chu said anxiously, "Liu Sen! Follow the quartermaster closely and be on the lookout for him. Liu Heping! Follow behind them and get rid of the stalkers!"
"Yes!"
Liu Sen and Liu Heping hurriedly accepted the order.
Liu Zhengxiong shouted, "Chief! Am I stupid?"
Xiang Chu smiled and said, "You are very thoughtful. Go and come back soon!"
"That's pretty much it!"
Liu Zhengxiong smiled and took Liu Sen and Liu Heping away from Yangliulin.
At this time, Qian Fu received a telegram and reported: "Boss! Xiao Qi sent a telegram saying that Doihara Xian'er has arrived in Kaifeng and is now a bandit in Liangshan. He is burning, killing, and looting along the way. Please find a way to destroy him."
Xiang Chu said bitterly, "Doihara Xian'er has done so many evil things, why doesn't he die?"
Gan Rong smiled bitterly and said, "Good people don't live long, but turtles live a thousand years! Chief! If Lao Liu can't buy food, let's go fishing in the river to prepare for emergencies."
Xiang Chu nodded and said, "Okay! Let's go fishing."
Luoyang City, West Gate.
Hundreds of thousands of national troops guarded Luoyang and its surrounding areas, and people in military uniforms were everywhere.
Liu Zhengxiong and Liu Heping, dressed in military uniforms, walked into the city gate with their horses in a swaggering manner.
The guards on duty didn't even look at the soldiers, but stopped the civilians and kept shouting nonsense.
Liu Zhengxiong's prepared lines were useless. He shook his head and said, "These guys are really funny. If the Japanese spies were wearing military uniforms, they could easily sneak in."
Liu Heping laughed and said, "Chief Steward! Perhaps a large number of Japanese spies have already infiltrated Luoyang City."
Liu Zhengxiong nodded and said, "That's for sure! Oh my god! Why are all the food stores here closed?"
Liu Heping suggested: "The food stores on this main street must have been robbed. Why not go to the back streets and alleys to have a look?"
Liu Zhengxiong nodded and said, "Okay! Let's find a restaurant and eat first. Oh, and call Liu Sen."
Liu Heping shook his head and said, "I didn't see Liu Sen!"
Liu Zhengxiong scolded: "You! You can't even keep an eye on one person."
Liu Heping shouted, "He's following us, why should I keep an eye on him?"
"Forget it! Let's go."
Liu Zhengxiong waved his hand and turned into the alley next to him.
The two walked around the city for a long time, but there was not a single grocery store open.
Liu Heping smiled bitterly and said, "Steward! The boss is right. We can't buy any food at all. Let's go to the noodle stall in front and have a bowl of noodles, and then go back."
His finger pointed towards the noodle stall in front.
"Shh!"
Liu Zhengxiong made a silent gesture and whispered:
"Look! That Eighth Route Army cadre is chatting with a Nationalist Army officer back to back."
Liu Heping laughed and said, "The KMT and the CPC are still cooperating. What's so strange about that?"
Liu Zhengxiong whispered, "Silly! Can't you see they are exchanging information?"
Liu Heping nodded and said, "Yes! This Eighth Route Army soldier must be a White Party spy."
"Bang!" There was a sound.
It seemed like someone behind me was knocked unconscious by a stick and fell to the ground.
The two men turned around quickly and saw a plainclothes officer lying on the ground.
Liu Sen was holding a big stick and looking at them jokingly.
Liu Zhengxiong laughed and said, "You're quite skillful, boy!"
Liu Sen searched the plainclothes officer for his ID and handed it to him, saying with a wry smile:
"Steward! You two are being followed by spies from the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics."
Liu Zhengxiong waved his hand and said, "We saw it a long time ago, but we were just too lazy to do anything."
Liu Sen laughed and said, "Just brag! The Central Bureau of Investigation agents have already caught up with you."
Liu Heping pushed open the door of a house next door. The yard was deserted and no one had left.
He picked up the plainclothes man and threw him into the haystack in the yard, urging:
"You two! Let's get out of the city quickly."
"it is good!"
Liu Zhengxiong nodded, turned around and looked at the noodle stall, wondering,
"Ah! The Eighth Route Army cadres and the National Army officers are all gone."
"Boom! Boom!"
Suddenly two gunshots were heard.
The three men hurriedly led the horses into the yard.
Liu Zhengxiong saw through the crack in the door that Hu Changsheng, wearing an Eighth Route Army uniform, was running towards him in a panic.
He hurriedly opened the door and shouted, "Changsheng! Come in quickly."
"Brother Liu! Are you here?"
Hu Changsheng was shocked and rushed into the courtyard.
Liu Zhengxiong closed the door and asked, "Changsheng! Why are you here?"
Hu Changsheng smiled bitterly and said, "My comrades and I went into the city to buy food, but we accidentally got separated. I was targeted by White Party spies and was almost beaten to death. Fortunately, I met you."
Liu Zhengxiong pointed in the direction of the noodle stall and said, "I just saw an Eighth Route Army soldier chatting with a Nationalist Army officer at the noodle stall. Could he have betrayed you?"
Hu Changsheng shook his head and said, "Definitely not! My comrade is a veteran Party member and is absolutely loyal to the Party."
At this moment, hurried footsteps were heard from the streets outside.
Liu Sen took out a set of national army uniforms and said anxiously:
"Brother Hu! Hurry up and change into your uniform. In Luoyang City, no one will be checked if they wear the National Army uniform."
"it is good!"
Hu Changsheng nodded.
He ran into the room, changed into the National Army uniform, and put the Eighth Route Army uniform into his backpack.
"Bang!" a voice.
The gate of the compound was kicked open.
Two plainclothes officers were standing outside the door, staring at the Kuomintang colonel in front of them with a fierce look.
Liu Zhengxiong pointed his gun at the plainclothes officer and shouted, "Assholes! What are you thinking?"
The older plainclothes officer asked with a smile, "Sir! Who are you? Why are you hiding here?"
Liu Sen climbed out of the cellar, picked up a basket of dried sweet potatoes and said, "Let's find something to eat."
The young plainclothes officer said angrily, "We are asking who you are."
"Snapped!"
Liu Zhengxiong slapped him and angrily scolded:
"Who are you? How dare you investigate us?"
The older plainclothes officer said anxiously, "Sir! Don't be angry. We are from the Central Bureau of Investigation's Luoyang Intelligence Station and are here to arrest Eighth Route Army spies."
Liu Zhengxiong lied, "We are from the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics. We have been tracking down the Eighth Route Army spies and are looking for food here. My name is Zheng Jie! Here are my IDs."
After saying this, he took out his ID card for playing Zheng Jie and showed it to the older plainclothes officer.
The older plainclothes officer stepped forward and exclaimed in surprise, "Ah?! Are you Assistant Director Zheng?"
Liu Zhengxiong pointed at the haystack and said, "Is that man yours? He followed us and was knocked unconscious. Send him to the hospital quickly."
"Yes!"
The older plainclothes officer hurriedly took the order.
Two plainclothes officers from the Central Bureau of Investigation stepped forward and carried away the injured officer.
Liu Zhengxiong waved his hand and said, "Let's go! We've got some food. Liu Sen! Leave a few silver dollars."
Liu Sen shook his head and said, "Old Liu! The Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics will definitely come back. If we keep the silver dollars, we will be easily exposed."
Liu Zhengxiong nodded and said, "That's right! Military Control Commissioner Zheng Jie is not so kind. Let's go!"
He walked out of the courtyard with three people, passed through the streets and alleys, and walked out of the west city gate.
Hu Changsheng begged, "Old Liu! Give me a horse. I want to catch up with my comrades."
Liu Zhengxiong handed him his horse and warned him, "Changsheng! The man who followed you into the city is most likely a White Party spy. You must be careful."
Hu Changsheng didn't quite believe it, but he nodded and said, "Okay!"
After he finished speaking, he jumped on his horse and galloped towards the east.
