Ye Ruxue frowned slightly, and stood under the old locust tree at the entrance of Chitu Village and pondered without saying a word.

"Director Ye, are you worried?" Yang Dashu, the commander of the guard battalion, couldn't help but come over to chat with him.

The Intelligence Director Ye Ruxue had a good impression of Xu Shijiu. This was not a secret in the entire southern Anhui Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army. Yang Dashu came to chat with him, not to say that he had any inappropriate thoughts about Ye Ruxue. He just wanted to talk to this beautiful woman, it was that simple.

As long as he is a man, who doesn’t want to get close to beauty?

Ye Ruxue had no intention of chatting with Yang Dashu at all. Her mind was completely focused on how to protect Xu Shijiu's safety. Early this morning, Ye Ruxue followed the main force of the guard camp to Chitu Village and began to prepare for the safety protection of Chitu in advance.

From the morning to now, the guard camp has conducted two large-scale inspections of the entire Chitu Village. However, the small village with a radius of less than 200 meters has sent six patrol teams, sending out posts in the center of the village and in the southeast, northwest and northwest, and two barricades have even been built at the entrance of the village.

Until now, no exception has been found.

But for some reason, Ye Ruxue always felt a little uneasy in her heart.

Ye Ruxue has enough understanding of the methods of the Military Control Commission. Ye Ruxue has no doubt about the Military Control Commission's determination to assassinate Xu Shijiu, so she would rather take the security measures carefully than dare not be careless. In short, she would never want something to happen to Xu Shijiu.

Time passed by little by little. When the sun shone obliquely under the old locust tree, Ye Ruxue suddenly turned her head and said to Yang Dashu: "Captain Yang, the plan has changed. The meeting location has been changed from the Wang Family Courtyard to the Villagekou Mountain Temple. You can take people to the Villagekou Mountain Temple to arrange it."

"What? The mountain temple at the entrance of the village?" Yang Dashu was stunned.

Turning his head, Yang Dashu saw the mountain temple that Ye Ruxue mentioned. The mountain temple was built about 500 meters away and was surrounded by an open land without any cover. Whether it is wheat seedlings, corn or potatoes, they are only knee-high and cannot hide themselves at all, so the security pressure will be much lighter.

The problem is that the mountain temple has become dilapidated, with two walls falling down and half of the roof collapsed. It is probably not appropriate to change the meeting place between Xu Shijiu and important figures of the Communist Party of China. The Communist Party may accuse the southern Anhui Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army of slacking off guests.

Yang Dashu said at the moment: "Director Ye, I'm afraid this is inappropriate, right?"

"There is nothing wrong, it's there." Ye Ruxue had made up her mind.

Will the Communist Party blame the Southern Anhui Anti-Japanese and National Rescue Army for neglecting the guests? Will Xu Shijiu blame himself for not making any arrangements? Ye Ruxue can't even care about it. These are all details and can be more important than Xu Shijiu's safety? For Ye Ruxue, ensuring Xu Shijiu's safety is the first priority.

Yang Dashu originally wanted to object, but this security work was in charge of the Intelligence Department after all, and his guard battalion was just a cooperation with the action. He immediately closed his mouth and took a platoon of soldiers to the Shanshen Temple to clean it. He also sent someone to move the table and chairs from the Wang family to the Shanshen Temple.

(Split Line)

Not long after the mountain temple was cleaned, Shu Tongwen accompanied Zhu Lunguo to protect a guard platoon from the Southern Anhui Detachment of the New Fourth Army.

Zhu Lunguo and Shu Tongwen had no objection to Ye Ruxue's meeting place in the dilapidated mountain temple. What they didn't expect was that Xu Shijiu had not arrived yet. You should know that Xu Shijiu had always demanded himself with strict discipline and rarely was late.

After more than an hour, Xu Shijiu finally arrived.

"Awen, I'm so embarrassed. I encountered a small situation on the way, so I came late." Xu Shijiu smiled at Shu Tongwen, and then looked at the middle-aged man standing next to Shu Tongwen, "This must be Secretary Zhu of the Central Plains Bureau, right? Fortunately, lucky."

"You are polite Xu Shijiu." Zhu Lunguo responded with a smile.

But Shu Tongwen asked with concern: "Captain, what's going on the road?"

"It's nothing big, just a few little thieves want to assassinate me." Xu Shijiu smiled and said again, "But let Xiaomu and the others catch it."

Ye Ruxue looked shaking when she heard this, and she inserted herself into her and asked, "Is she a member of the Military Control Commission or from Jisifei No. 76?"

"Before I have time to ask, Xiaomu and the others have been taken back to the county town." Xu Shijiu shook his head and complained to Ye Ruxue, "Director Ye, why did you choose such a place?"

"Commander, don't you let the disturbing people? Then you can only choose here." Ye Ruxue replied.

"Borrowing a land from the village party should not be considered a disturbing person, right?" Xu Shijiu frowned and instructed Ye Ruxue to say, "Go to the village to find a family..."

"Commander Xu, forget it, where is it not to talk about it?" Zhu Lun National Highway, "It just so happens that the weather is hot, so it's cooler in this mountain temple with wind leaking across the mountains, right?"

"Okay, let's talk here." Xu Shijiu said with his guest, "I'll ask you to sit down with a blessing."

After saying that, Xu Shijiu sat down on the left side of the long table that had been set up in advance. Gao Shenxing, Niu Sigen and Li Zihan sat on Xu Shijiu's lower head, Zhu Lunguo sat on the other side, facing Xu Shijiu's next table, Shu Tongwen and Hu Zhijing sat on Zhu Lunguo's lower head.

"Commander Xu, before the formal talks begin, I have another unhappy request." Communists are not used to talking nonsense, at least the Communist Party of this era is like this. Zhu Lunguo said bluntly, "I hope your army can release our comrades who are suppressed as soon as possible."

"Restrain?" Xu Shijiu said with a smile, "Secretary Zhu is probably a misunderstanding, right?"

"Misunderstanding?" Zhu Lunguo asked, "Is this not a repression?"

"Of course it's not a repression." Xu Shijiu smiled, "It's just a concentrated study of the international situation. After learning, they will return to their respective positions. What should they do? Secretary, I have to say, your Communist Party's political work department is indeed very outstanding."

Xu Shijiu told the truth. Although he still had hope for Gu Zhutong, he did not think about hanging himself on a tree. If Gu Zhutong lied and restored the 19th Army to empty construction, then the southern Anhui Anti-Japanese and National Salvation Army would still have to turn around and cooperate with the Communist New Fourth Army.

Therefore, Xu Shijiu did not want to have a stalemate with the Communist Party.

The same is true for Zhu Lunguo. As long as there is a slight possibility, they still want to strive for Xu Shijiu. Now they no longer get entangled in the superficial concentrated study. In fact, the group of Yu Min who was suppressed shifted the topic to another matter.

"What about Comrade Liu Chang?" Zhu Lun National Highway, "As far as I know, he has been sent to prison, right?

Xu Shijiu's expression froze slightly and said, "Secretary Zhu, this comrade's situation is a bit complicated...

"Comrade Xu, I have already learned about Comrade Liu Chang." Zhu Lunguo waved his hand and said, "What I want to say is that no matter what, Comrade Liu Chang is a Communist Party member. Even if he really makes a mistake, it should be handled by our Communist Party. If Commander Xu handed him over to us, we would be very grateful."

Gao Shenxing, who was sitting on Xu Shijiu's head, turned his head to look at Xu Shijiu. For Xu Shijiu, Liu Chang was actually an extremely hot potato. Even if it was confirmed that Liu Chang was indeed a betrayal, it was not easy to deal with it. Now he is giving this hot potato to others a good opportunity.

Xu Shijiu rushed to Gao Shenxing and nodded slightly, then said to Zhu Lunguo: "Yes."

Zhu Lunguo breathed a sigh of relief. In fact, before meeting Xu Shijiu in the turtle, he had already made the negotiations break down, and Xu Shijiu was completely prepared to turn to the national army. However, judging from the current situation, Xu Shijiu was obviously

He did not want to get into evil with the Communist Party, and even if Gu Zhutong fulfilled his promise, really restored the establishment of the 19th Army and appointed Xu Shijiu as the commander of the army, Xu Shijiu might not be able to turn against the Communist Party.

As long as you have this foundation, you can sit down and talk about anything.
