The courtyard of the Liu family.

Zhao Xuemei and Wang Shun were both very happy to see Gao Han and others. Wang Shun's face was full of joy, while Zhao Xuemei burst into tears.

"The boss. The boss."

The two of them greeted Gao Han and others affectionately.

Gao Han first asked: "Shunzi, how is your injury?"

Wang Shun said happily: "Master, it's not a problem. No bones were hurt, so it's fine."

Zhao Xuemei brewed a pot of tea with her own hands and poured it for Gao Han and others, and everyone chatted together.

Gao Han told Zhao Xuemei and Wang Shun the recent situation in the village. They were very happy to hear that they had eliminated the Japanese invaders in Taohua Mountain.

Zhao Xuemei reported on her activities in Taoyuan Town. She proposed that she wanted to return to Taohua Village. Although Wang Shun did not speak, the expectation in his eyes revealed his true feelings.

Gao Han said: "I can understand your mood, and I will definitely let you go back in the future. However, your staying here is more useful now. In the near future, the Japanese will come to besiege Taohua Village, and there are many things that need you."

We need to do it here, and the wheat harvest will be soon, and we need you to raise a large amount of food for the village here.

Zhao Xuemei and Wang Shun are both people with general knowledge, and they expressed their obedience to Gao Han's arrangements.

Gao Han and others were chatting affectionately. Liu Defu and Wang Fengnian came over. They must hold a banquet for Gao Han and others. Gao Han did not shirk and agreed to their request.

People's thoughts can change. Originally Liu Defu was willing to get close to the Japanese because of his eldest son Liu Shengyuan, but he was also very dissatisfied with the atrocities of the Japanese, especially last time Shimada wanted to humiliate his third concubine.

, and even beat him, and he began to change his attitude towards the Japanese.

At the banquet, he heard that Gao Han and others had annihilated more than 200 Japanese Japs. He admired the fighting power of Gao Han and others and secretly rejoiced that he did not become an enemy of Gao Han and others. Otherwise, how serious the consequences would be.

It’s not hard to imagine.

Of course, from the bottom of his heart, he was unwilling to deal with Gao Han and others. Not only did he have no luck, but he was also worried that the Japanese would find out. He was always on tenterhooks. However, this time Gao Han came here and brought him good news.

.

Liu Defu's family ran a textile factory, and producing cloth in their factory was not an easy task. They had to purchase goods and hire a large number of workers for production. In these war-torn years, these things were not easy to do.

The cloth they painstakingly produced, but the profit from selling it to the printing and dyeing factory was actually not as high as that of the printing and dyeing factory. This time Gao Han brought him a new type of chemical dye that only appeared in the early 1950s, and it was definitely the only one in this era.

Moreover, it also provided him with advanced production management technology, a new type of factory that produces cloth, printing and dyeing, and it is difficult not to make a fortune.

Liu Defu was very happy and immediately finalized a cooperation agreement with Gao Han to build a new printing and dyeing factory. Gao Han invested in technology and accounted for 20% of the factory's shares. He did not want cash, and the proceeds from the 20% of the shares were usually kept with Liu Defu for his benefit.

Carry out capital turnover and ask Liu Defu to purchase food and other daily necessities when needed.

After a short stay in Taoyuan Town, Gao Han and others headed to Shoucheng County overnight.

Shoucheng County.

In order to easily enter and leave the county, Liu Defu's housekeeper Wang Fengnian personally brought Gao Han and others to the county. They dressed up as servants of the Liu family, openly carried rifles on their backs, hid machine guns and other supplies on their horses, and came

Arrive at the gate of the county town.

The gatekeepers in the county were all members of the security army brigade, and they all knew Wang Fengnian, so they naturally would not check them. So Gao Han and others entered Shoucheng County smoothly.

After entering the city, Wang Fengnian settled them in a shop of the Liu family and went to the security army brigade to find Liu Shengyu.

Liu Shengyu led his team back to Shoucheng County that day and reported to Captain Hirata of the Military Police that when they were guarding the transport team transporting Hamasaki Ayumi and others, they were attacked by a large group of anti-Japanese armed forces, and all the Japanese drivers of the transport team were killed.

, after they resisted tenaciously and saw the large number of enemy troops, they had no choice but to retreat to the county town.

Captain Hirata has always been dissatisfied with Hamasaki Ayumi and others for coming to Shoucheng County again and again and causing trouble to themselves. On the contrary, the anti-Japanese guerrillas entrenched in Taohuashan have never caused trouble to Shoucheng County. He is only responsible for Shoucheng County.

The security of this three-acre area of ​​the city and county, and the Taohuashan guerrillas' attacks on the Japanese checkpoints and strongholds on the highway, were not within the borders of Shoucheng County, and were none of their business. Pingtian didn't even care about this anti-Japanese guerrillas.

Although he was disgusted, he was grateful because the surrounding counties were always having problems, which showed that he had a high level of governance in Shoucheng County and had outstanding achievements.

As for what happened to Ayumi Hamasaki, Shimada and others, it has little to do with him. The Taohuashan District is originally at the junction of Shoucheng County and Pingyue County. No matter what happens, it cannot be counted among the Shoucheng County Gendarmerie.

on the head.

After listening to Liu Shengyu's report, Captain Hirata also felt that something had happened to Ayumi Hamasaki, Shimada and others. This matter had nothing to do with him. Ayumi Hamasaki and Shimada, with their entire reinforced squadron of Japanese field troops, could not defeat Taohua.

The mountain guerrillas are just a small gendarmerie in Shoucheng County. There are only 40 gendarmerie. Even if he wants to, he can't control it. He will not take the initiative to report this matter to the superiors. If he is too troublesome to report it to the superiors,

, the superiors will definitely send him to the Taohuashan site to investigate. Wouldn’t that cause big trouble for himself? Since the Taohuashan guerrillas are so powerful, he is just a man who has had enough to eat and is going to die.

He asked Liu Shengyu about the situation of the security army brigade with concern. He was relieved to hear that the security army brigade had not suffered any major losses.

If Liu Shengyu's security force brigade suffered heavy losses, it would also be a big trouble. He would also have to find ways to supplement Liu Shengyu's personnel and ask for weapons and equipment from above. This would make him, the military police captain, incompetent.

That morning, Captain Hirata received news from one of his fellow villagers from Jinan City, saying that he had read the news about the accident of Hamasaki Ayumi and others from the German newspaper in Jinan City, and he was very worried that his superiors would send him to Taohua.

Shan investigated. The last thing he wanted to hear right now was the phone ringing on the desk in his office. As a result, many people who called him to ask for instructions received inexplicable reprimands from him.
