Anti-Japanese War: Starting from Yaobai

Chapter 2987 The Stray Dog Calls!

As evening approached, Li Xiaolian decided to take another gamble. Taking advantage of the fact that the soldiers were eating in the mess hall and there were relatively few people in the camp, she quietly slipped out.

She jogged along, with only one thought in her mind: she had to get the intelligence out.

This time, however, she hadn't gone far when she suddenly heard hurried footsteps coming from behind her.

She had a bad feeling and was trying to find a place to hide, but it was too late.

The other person had already seen her and called out, "Li Xiaolian, wait a minute!"

It turned out to be Ma Ping'an. Ma Ping'an was holding a document in his hand, and it looked like he had just come out of the conference room.

He saw Li Xiaolian and asked in surprise, "Li Xiaolian, where are you rushing off to?"

Li Xiaolian's heart was pounding, but she forced herself to remain calm and said, "Captain Ma, I... I came out for a night run to get some exercise."

Ma Ping'an smiled and said, "Don't run yet, could you please read these documents to me? It won't take you much time!"

"oh,."

Li Xiaolian reluctantly gave an "oh," and then followed behind Ma Ping'an to read the documents to him.

Two hours passed in the end, and when she came out of Ma Ping'an's room, patrols and sentries were everywhere. She had no chance to leave again.

Helpless, Li Xiaolian could only storm back to her room.

As soon as she entered the room, Li Xiaolian could no longer hold back, cursing incessantly: "Do all these anti-Japanese brigade members have a grudge against me? How come I keep running into them everywhere I go? These damned bastards are wasting my time and preventing me from sending out the intelligence!"

The next day, just as dawn was breaking, Li Xiaolian got up early.

The intelligence hasn't been sent out for three days. If it can't be sent out today, what value will the intelligence in her hands have?
So she changed her usual practice and decided to send out the intelligence in the early morning.

Sure enough, after 3 a.m., not only did the patrolling soldiers show signs of fatigue, but fog also rose up, making it the perfect time for her to take action.

So she easily left the camp.

Li Xiaolian was a little excited because she had finally come out.

"Damn the anti-Japanese brigade, they keep such a close watch on me every day. But I still got out, didn't I? Humph!"

Li Xiaolian snorted coldly and quickened her pace, because she needed to get back to the camp before dawn, otherwise she would risk being exposed.

She proceeded cautiously, fearing that the careless reconnaissance team might still have members lurking on the outskirts.

But she felt she was overthinking it and didn't notice any signs of patrolling.

But thinking about it, it makes sense. The reconnaissance squadron didn't have many people to begin with, and now they've all gone to the Da'an direction for reconnaissance, so the camp is naturally empty.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, she quickened her pace and soon arrived at the rendezvous point.

She had just hidden the information under the old tree when she heard footsteps.

Li Xiaolian was suddenly startled and broke out in a cold sweat. She didn't even know whether she should take out the intelligence and destroy it. If someone was watching, then she must have been seen hiding the intelligence.

Just then, someone lowered their voice and called out, "Is that Miss Li? We're one of us."

"mmp!"

Li Xiaolian first cursed the other person's ancestors for eighteen generations, because you don't know that scaring people can kill them?
She was about to yell at the other person, but before she knew it, the other person had already stepped forward, and was acting all respectful.

But most importantly, she didn't know the other person because they weren't the people she had met last time.

As Li Xiaolian was wondering, the leading Japanese soldier introduced himself: "Miss Li, we are the four great generals of the Special Higher Police Station in Chuncheng. My name is Watanabe, the fat man is Suzuki, the skinny man is Kato, and the one at the very back is Kurai."

Li Xiaolian frowned slightly, because she had heard of these four powerful men, who were capable henchmen of Bei Yuan at the Chuncheng Station of the Special Higher Police. She hadn't expected that he would send them all here for the Dragon Slaying Plan.

But she also felt that things might not be that simple.

So she asked, "What brings you here?"

Watanabe replied, "Our first priority is to cooperate with your work. Second, we need to confirm something. Some people suspect that Qi Dabing of the Anti-Japanese Brigade is the same person as Duanwu, the 'Chinese Madman' from the Central Plains battlefield. You should have heard of the name Duanwu!"

Li Xiaolian nodded, because how could she not know the name "Chinese Madman"?

Li Xiaolian nodded and said, "I will confirm this matter."

At this point, Li Xiaolian glanced at the place where the intelligence was kept and said, "The intelligence is there. Take it and leave immediately. The Anti-Japanese Brigade is very vigilant."

But then Watanabe said, "Miss Li, there's something else. Our section chief asked us to find a way to infiltrate the anti-Japanese brigade to help you complete your mission. Do you have any ideas about that?"

Li Xiaolian smiled smugly, then pointed to the location where the intelligence was hidden and said, "Coincidentally, it's among the intelligence this time. Go back and take a look; I'll try my best to buy you some time!"

Watanabe and the others were overjoyed and immediately bowed, their faces full of fawning smiles: "Miss Li, you truly deserve to be called the Special Higher Police's ace agent. Your wisdom and methods are truly admirable!"

Li Xiaolian was pleased to hear this, but on the surface she waved her hand and said, "Don't say that, I've only achieved a little bit of success."

However, Li Xiaolian really didn't have time to stay any longer, so she hurriedly said goodbye and left.

Watanabe and the others took out the intelligence, which was three days late, and returned to the hut in the mountains where the agents were staying. Only then did they take out the intelligence and start reading it.

To their surprise, the Anti-Japanese Brigade was on another mission: to attack the Da'an Coal Mine.

The Da'an Coal Mine is quite large, with over 10,000 miners. However, the Da'an Coal Mine is currently sparsely manned, with only two companies of puppet troops and one infantry company of the Imperial Army.

It's a joke that such a force could withstand the attack of the anti-Japanese brigade.

However, the Second Division still has two infantry regiments, which could ambush the anti-Japanese brigade.

But then, as they read what followed, their eyes lit up. Li Xiaolian's intention was to use this opportunity to infiltrate more Imperial Army soldiers into the anti-Japanese forces.

This is a very good idea. If they can successfully infiltrate, what other secrets does the Anti-Japanese Brigade have?
But they couldn't make the decision on this matter. They immediately sent a telegram to Section Chief Kitahara.

Section Chief Kitahara had just gotten up and was brushing his teeth with toothpaste when a spy arrived to report, "Your Excellency, Tugou has called. They've received top-secret intelligence that the Anti-Japanese Brigade is about to launch an attack on the Da'an Coal Mine. Their military objective is to expand their manpower!"
