"Platform Leader Gao, what are you doing?" Zhou Mantian stepped forward and asked.

Gao Shenxing just shook his head, continued to grab piles of banknotes from the opened suitcase and stuffed them into a sack.

Until now, Li Mu and Little Maqu who stayed at the joint with the Military Control Commission of Yangshan Lake have not returned. During this period, Zhou Mantian sent two groups of people to Yangshan Lake to inquire about the news, but no news has been sent back. With his rich experience, Gao Shenxing has smelled a dangerous smell from the air and decided to implement the backup plan.

Regarding this money-robbing operation, two sets of plans have been prepared, whether it is money-robbing, money-carrying, or the use of money in the future.

The banknote robbery has been successful, and the backup plan is automatically invalidated. Regarding banknote transport, Xu Shijiu also prepared two sets of plans. The first choice is to directly transport banknotes to Shanghai through the channels of the Military Control Commission, then purchase military supplies from the Shanghai Concession, and then transport these military supplies back to Longkou through the channels of the Military Control Commission.

In addition to this preferred solution, there are alternative solutions.

The backup plan is that the 5th Battalion will directly bring the two million yuan back to Longkou, and then use the CCP’s channels to purchase materials. However, the CCP’s underground party channels naturally cannot be comparable to the Military Control Commission. At that time, the Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army in southern Anhui will at most buy some food or bedding from neighboring counties. If it wants to purchase weapons, ammunition and equipment, it is absolutely impossible.

Compared with the two, the benefits of the preferred plan are of course far exceeding the alternative plan.

However, no matter how good the preferred plan is, it must be implemented with conditions, otherwise everything will be empty talk.

Now, Li Mu and the little sparrow have not come back for a long time, and the Military Control Commission has never been in contact. Gao Shenxing must not worry. If the Military Control Commission Station in Chizhou has been taken over by the Japanese company, it would be too dangerous for him and the 5th Brigade to stay in Chizhou again. Therefore, it would be better to just bring a huge sum of money back to Longkou, so that he can still use the money to buy some supplies.

"Planer Gao, calm down and listen to me." Zhou Mantian persuaded patiently.

"Da Zhou, you don't need to say anything more." Gao Shenxing waved his hand to stop Zhou Mantian and said, "I have decided."

While speaking, Gao Shenxing had already put two million in more than 20 sacks, and then distributed the sacks to more than 20 team members of the 5th brigade, each of which was a pocket. According to Gao Shenxing's backup plan, more than 20 team members of the 5th brigade transformed Qiao into a businessman, and secretly sneaked back to Longkou County during the day and at night.

Zhou Mantianzheng didn't know how to persuade Gao Shenxing, so a guerrilla rushed over.

After listening to the guerrilla report, Zhou Mantian's face changed immediately. He turned his head and said to Gao Shenxing: "Planer Commander Gao, Li Battalion and Little Sparrow are back."

"Oh?" Gao Shenxing stood up suddenly after hearing this.

A moment later, Li Mu and the little sparrow appeared with the help of four guerrillas.

Seeing that Li Mu's face was blue and he couldn't even walk, Gao Shenxing's face changed drastically and he rushed forward and asked, "Xiao Mu, what's wrong?"

"Old Gao, don't mention it." Li Mu smiled bitterly and said with shame, "We were careless and asked the little Japanese to block the island in the middle of the lake. Then the little Japanese set fire to the island. We were really forced to hide in the water. As a result, the little Japanese set fire to search the island again. If the little Japanese had not withdrawn suddenly, even if we were not arrested by the little Japanese, we would probably be frozen to death."

"Xiaomu, come and roast the fire quickly, warm and warm." Gao Shenxing quickly helped Li Mu to the fire, and carefully helped Li Mu sit by the fire. When Li Mu and the little sparrow both sat down by the fire, Gao Shenxing asked again, "Xiaomu, have you ever joined the Military Control Commission before the arrival of the little Japanese?"

"No." Li Mu shook his head and said, "But Lao Gao, the little Japanese suddenly withdrew later, probably because they discovered the traffic officer sent by the Military Control Commission to contact us. Alas, I don't know how the Military Control Commission is doing now. If something happens to them, our preferred plan will be suspended.

"I was about to tell you about this." Gao Shenxing said, "I want to enable a backup plan."

"Will it be too urgent to launch the backup plan now?" Li Mu expressed his objection this time.

"Planer Commander Gao, Li Battalion, don't worry." Zhou Mantian advised again, "I have sent someone to send a letter to the Chizhou County Party Committee. The comrades of the county party committee will send someone to contact the Military Commission. I believe that the news will be sent back soon."

Li Mu also said: "Old Gao, I also think I can't be too hasty now, so I'd better wait."

Gao Shenxing pondered for a moment, and finally nodded: "Okay, then we will wait for another day. If there is no news from the Military Control Commission before dark today, then we will implement the backup plan."

(Split Line)

"Taisan, the target ran east from this path." Yan Sanquan pointed to a fork and said to Haneda.

From Chizhou to Qingyang County, in addition to passing through the Huting stronghold, there were also two other strongholds in the future. When they arrived in Qingyang, there were several Japanese checkpoints. After receiving the report from the Huting stronghold, Haneda immediately called several strongholds leading to Qingyang County and ordered them to intercept a suspicious carriage.

Therefore, Haneda was very sure that the target had never run out of Chizhou.

However, the gendarmerie and plainclothes team chased the Hudun stronghold at the junction of Chizhou and Qingyang County, and never found the target. Haneda realized that the target must have abandoned the main road and turned into a small road from the middle. After realizing this, Haneda quickly led the gendarmerie and plainclothes team to search the route.

After searching halfway, the plainclothes team finally found suspicious traces.

In the grass at a fork in the road, Hei Ergou from the plainclothes team found a pile of horse manure. Hei Ergou raised horses when he was a child and knew the habits of horses. After deciding the color and smell of horse manure, Hei Ergou came to the conclusion that the pile of horse manure had just been pulled for a short time, and it would never last more than two hours, which means that the goal was only two hours at most.

I chased along the path not long after it was dawn, and at this time, the ruts of the carriage were clearly seen on the ground.

The old Japanese devils immediately ordered the gendarmerie team, and the plainclothes team rushed to chase after the fork in the road for about ten miles, and came to a river, and then the target disappeared out of thin air.

Although the target disappeared out of thin air, Haneda was not in a hurry.

Because Haneda knew very well that the goal could never really disappear. If it was not hidden, it would have been through the water.

The gendarmerie and plainclothes team scattered everywhere and searched the surrounding mountains and fields inch by inch. Not long after, an abandoned carriage was found in a river bay. At this point, Haneda could have completely determined that the goal was to walk through the water. He immediately ordered the gendarmerie and plainclothes team to continue chasing along the banks of the river.

After chasing along the river for about ten miles, the plainclothes team's Hei Ergou showed suspicious traces again.

"Taisang, captain, look at it, there are ruts here." Hei Ergou pulled open a mess of grass on the field stem, revealing several not-so-conspicuous ruts directly printed in the soil, and then pointed to the rut and said, "This is a rut of a wheelbarrow. The other party also has a supporter, and he picked up the target from here.

By this time, the old Japanese devils of Haneda had realized that something was wrong.

Sure enough, the gendarmerie and plainclothes team chased forward for about ten miles, and the ruts of these unicycle disappeared on the road. To be precise, they were pressed by cars and tricycle tire marks on the road, because it was close to Chizhou, and there were many Japanese trucks transporting supplies, as well as three-wheelers for messaging.

Now, Haneda is simply unable to determine whether to follow the main road into Chizhou City or to take a small road from the middle.
