In Xingtai County, a small Western-style second floor is hidden by several large trees covered with thick white snow. On the high courtyard wall, dense barbed wire is set up, and upstairs is the office of the Japanese army's headquarters in Xingtai County.

The Japanese brigade leader Nakasa Akimizu Kaguchijiro was holding his hands behind his back, tilting his face, raising his eyebrows, and observing carefully in front of the map hanging on the wall.

He was wearing a military uniform, with no buttons on his upper body, and a white shirt, a short head, a wide shoulder, and a newly shaved gourd head, revealing a green scalp of duck eggs. A pair of round and small eyes flashed with ferocious eyes. A few deep wrinkles crossed on his face full of flesh. Under the eagle's nose, there was a short gray-yellow beard.

"Report, Lieutenant Kobayashi is back." The guard at the door knocked on the door and said loudly.

"Let him come here." Akihiko Jiro turned around and walked to the back of the wide desk, sitting on the leather swivel chair.

The sound of military boots from afar stopped from afar, "Report, Kobayashi Ichiku."

"Come in!" Qiushui greeted casually.

"Hisser Qiu Shui, I'm back." Kobayashi pushed the door and walked in, standing attentively and saluting.

"Sit down!" Qiushui pointed to the chair next to her, "How is it? Have you gained anything after going out for so long?"

Kobayashi stood up again, "Report to yourselves, I..."

"Sit down and say, I don't have to be so serious here." Qiu Shui smiled, and she liked Kobayashi's style very much.

"Hayi." Kobayashi agreed and sat down, his waist still straight.

"Grand Qiushui, I have gone to Renjia Town, Wulipo and comfort station these days, carefully checked the bodies of the soldiers of the dead Empire, gained some gains, and had some initial thoughts." Kobayashi Ikawa said truthfully.

"Tell me, what have you gained?" Qiu Shui stopped rotating the chair and asked with great interest.

"My ex-Kan Kono-kun analyzed it very well. This mysterious master must have undergone rigorous training. His killing techniques are very professional and skillful, and his shooting skills are extremely accurate. He should also speak fluent Japanese." While affirming his ex's achievements, Kobayashi Ichikawa deliberately omitted the Chinese words in front of the master, which obviously has a deep meaning.

"Tell me your opinion." Qiu Shui realized this keenly, nodded and asked.

"These are conclusions drawn from the scene of the comfort station and the imperial cavalry, and I came up with a new conclusion from the scene of the murder of Kono-kun." Kobayashi thought for a while, organized some language, and continued: "Although the scene was burned and destroyed, I found the bullet of the mullet gun from the body of the imperial soldiers, and there were almost all the bodies, which shows a problem."

"Speak." Qiu Shui waved her hand encouragingly.

"In theory, Xiangkano and his well-trained subordinates will not be completely wiped out even if they are attacked by pistols at close range. Unless..." Kobayashi hesitated for a moment, his voice became low, "Unless you are facing an acquaintance or at least the same Japanese, they may lose their due vigilance and be defeated by someone."

Akimizu Kaguchijiro leaned back, his eyes closed slightly, and his fingers slashed at the table with rhythmic rhythm. The room was quiet for the time being.

“小林君,你是我器重的手下.”秋水半晌才抬起头,冲着小林一光说道:“不是我不相信你的判断,实在是因为其它的原因,如果这件事传扬出去,你知道会造成多恶劣的影响吗?日本人杀日本人,实在是难以让人相信.”

"Your Excellency Qiu Shui, my subordinates are just guessing." Kobayashi Ichikawa explained.

"What are you going to do?" Qiu Shui asked with a smile.

"Secret reconnaissance will never let a suspicious person go." Kobayashi replied confidently, "There is a strict discipline of entry and exit in the army, which should be eliminated. I am going to focus on the wandering ronin and Japanese merchants. And I send secret spies to go deep into the rural countryside with various identities. I suggest that the spies sent by them be composed of local Chinese or transferred from Manchuria. Only in this way can I obtain more valuable information."

"Yo Xi." Qiu Shui nodded in admiration, "Kobayashi, you have a good idea and are very constructive. Using a big hammer to beat mosquitoes will have no effect. Only by using a fly swatter can it be beaten to pieces."

"Let's go and do it, don't let me down." Akimizu Kaguchijiro stood up, poured two glasses of wine, and handed it to Kobayashi Ichimi, "I wish us success and a drink."

"Thank you for your trust, I will never let you down." Kobayashi solemnly promised, raised his glass and touched Qiushui gently, and drank it all in one go.

Wu Ming led the female soldiers back to the cave to prepare for the New Year, but when he walked to the entrance of the cave, he found something was wrong.

"Someone has come." Wu Ming carefully observed the footprints underground, "and there are quite a few people, at least a dozen."

"That's right, when we left, our team detained the post and cleaned it up." Cheng Xiaoyi frowned.

"You see these footprints, they don't look like Japanese military shoes, but rather like ordinary cloth shoes worn by ordinary people, and they also have barefoot ones." Wu Ming pointed, "Look, there are still blood here."

"Well, it seems like a fleeing ordinary person." Shen Min looked over with his footprints, "It seems like he was going to the cave."

"I'm really brave, I really don't take you seriously!" Wu Ming turned to look at Dong Xiaoyuan. Dong Xiaoyuan blinked and stepped behind Shen Min.

"Tsk, why are you so afraid of me?" Wu Ming waved his hand in an uninteresting way, "You guys are waiting outside, I'll go in and take a look first."

"No. 1." Shen Min hurriedly stopped him, "Why go around the hole behind, it's safer."

Wu Ming thought for a while and shook his head, "No need to be so troublesome. Everyone is very cold. I'd better go in from the front faster. Besides, I'm so well-versed, who can hurt me?"

"Then our team will follow us. If something happens, we can help you." Shen Min said worriedly.

"Okay, Group A and Group C are preparing to respond outside the hole, Group B leaves the long spear and replaces it with short spears." Wu Ming nodded with a smile and began to clean up his things.

After entering the cave, Wu Ming frowned, and a bad smell came from the depths of the cave. The smell of blood and the smell of urination were mixed together, making him feel very uncomfortable.

As soon as his feet slipped, he almost fell down. He shone with a flashlight and a pool of unfreezing feces made him step on it.

Who are these people? They are not particular at all. Isn’t there a special toilet in the hole? Wu Ming gently rubbed his feet on the ground, signaling the people behind to be careful of "landmines".

"Why? Why? We didn't mess with anyone?" A voice complained, mixed with sobs.

"Aunt, don't worry about being sucked. There is no reason to say to the Japanese devils. We are just blaming our bad luck." A familiar voice comforted him, "Aunt, have some porridge!"

"What's bad life? It's idealism." A woman said loudly: "The country is poor and weak, and naturally it is bullied by others, and the people will suffer. Only when compatriots across the country unite and fight bravely can they defeat Japanese imperialism. If a person falls down, thousands of people stand up and use our flesh and blood to build a Great Wall to bravely fight the invasion of the Japanese devils. Complaints are useless, and begging can only show our weakness. We want to..."

Pa, Pa, Pa, Wu Ming walked out with a slap, shocked the guy who was giving a passionate speech. He stared at Wu Ming with a big eyes, and his clenched fists also solidified in the air.

"Tell me quickly, talk quickly. If you say enough, find a shovel and clean the mines in the hole first." Wu Ming said viciously to the half-grown little girl, "You are so good, eat my food and wear my clothes." Wu Ming pointed to the little girl wrapped in a wide military uniform, and unconsciously rubbed her shoes on the ground. "I have left me with so many precious souvenirs, how should I thank you?"
