Xiaonian asked, "Is there anywhere we can go out?"
Tang Tangchang whispered an address into Xiaonian's ear.
Xiaonian said, "Take me to that place."
So, the two of them left the dormitory.
Tonight, it was Zheng Sanfu's turn to monitor Xiaonian.
Zheng Sanfu felt strange and woke up Zhou Lin.
"Big brother, something's not right."
Zhou Lin immediately jumped up. "What's going on?"
"There's no movement in Xiaonian's room. Usually, he comes out to urinate twice. But today, he hasn't come out."
Zhou Lin realized something was wrong.
Xiaonian must be executing his plan.
Now, they didn't know where Xiaonian was.
Zhou Lin immediately thought of a place. It was an exit known only to the staff of the main cafeteria.
If someone from the main cafeteria wanted to sneak out, they would go to that place.
So, the traitor must know about that exit. After they succeeded, they would definitely escape from there.
Zhou Lin said to Zheng Sanfu, "Go find the boss immediately and tell him the situation. Let him report to Commander Zhou and send troops to block the road to the town. We can't let Xiaonian escape with the intelligence."
Zheng Sanfu immediately rushed out of the dormitory towards Zheng Dafu's dormitory.
Zheng Dafu was having a drink in the dormitory when the door was suddenly pushed open.
Thinking he was discovered by someone from the Political Department, he immediately threw the bottle far out of the window.
Catch the thief with the goods. Catch the alcohol with the bottle. Now that there's no bottle, how can you say I've been drinking? I can accuse you of slander.
"Big brother, something big happened."
Zheng Sanfu entered.
Zheng Dafu said, "What could be so big?"
"The spy has escaped!"
Zheng Sanfu quickly explained the identities of Zhou Lin and himself. At the same time, he informed Zheng Dafu that Xiaonian had escaped.
Upon hearing this, Zheng Dafu grabbed his gun and rushed out of the door.
He ran to Zhou Weiguo's door and knocked vigorously.
Zhou Weiguo grumpily opened the door.
Without entering, Zheng Dafu said outside the door, "Xiaonian is a Japanese spy. He has made contact with the traitor. Now he has escaped with intelligence. Zhou Shuangmu, please lead your men out of the camp and block all roads to the town. We cannot let Xiaonian escape."
Upon hearing this, Zhou Weiguo left the room without even looking back, leaving the door open.
After coming out, Zhou Weiguo ordered the duty officer, "The whole regiment must assemble quickly."
A rapid whistle sounded. Then, someone shouted loudly, "The entire Second Regiment is to assemble urgently."
Afterwards, the sound of footsteps rang out, and the entire Second Regiment assembled in the square and began to line up.
At this time, the division commander, deputy division commander, and staff officers from the division headquarters all arrived at the headquarters.
They didn't know what had happened.
Without orders from the division headquarters, what was the Second Regiment doing?
The division commander looked at the chief of staff. "Did you assign a mission to the Second Regiment?"
"No! The training plan hasn't been finalized yet. There are no missions at the moment."
The deputy division commander scolded, "What is Zhou Weiguo up to again?"
The deputy division commander was concerned because the Second Regiment was brought up by him.
At this time, the deputy regimental commander of the Second Regiment ran over.
Attention salute. "Reporting to the division commander! Tonight, a Japanese spy and a traitor made contact within our division. Now, the Japanese spy has left with intelligence. Military Intelligence Bureau has requested our Second Regiment's cooperation to seal off the roads from the camp to the town and capture the Japanese spy. Commander Zhou has already led the troops out. I came to report to the officers."
The division commander's heart sank. "Who is the traitor? Do you know what intelligence it is?"
"The traitor is Tang, the deputy head of the main cafeteria. He made an appointment tonight with Wang, a staff officer of the First Regiment, Zhao, a staff officer of the Second Regiment, Li, a staff officer of the Third Regiment, and Sun, a staff officer of the Guard Regiment, to drink. Afterwards, they obtained intelligence from him and immediately fled."
The chief of staff shouted to the incoming people, "Where are the military deployment maps of each regiment?"
The staff officer of the First Regiment reported, "Our regiment's military deployment map is kept by me, here it is. And, except for me, others are not aware of this plan."
The staff officer of the Second Regiment reported, "Our regiment's military deployment map is kept by me, here it is. And, except for me, others are not aware of this plan."
The staff officer of the Third Regiment reported, "Our regiment's military deployment map is kept by me, here it is. And, except for me, others are not aware of this plan."
The staff officer of the Guard Regiment reported, "Our regiment's military deployment map is kept by me, here it is. However, except for me, Sun, a staff officer, knows about it, as he was involved in drawing up the plan."
The division commander rushed up, "All three regiments have guarded theirs, why didn't your regiment guard it? The Japanese took away your plan. Once this plan reaches the Japanese command, then tomorrow, the place where we are standing now will become a ruin."
The staff officer of the Guard Regiment said, "Our guard range is too large to handle. That's why we let the staff participate in the plan. Commander, I'm guilty, please punish me!"
The division commander raised his hand, but then put it down. "Punishing you now won't help. Order, Guard Regiment."
The commander of the Guard Regiment stepped forward, "Guard Regiment, take orders!"
The division commander said, "The problem lies with the Guard Regiment, so the solution must also come from the Guard Regiment. You are now leading the team to the town. Anyone suspicious must be arrested. Not a single person can be allowed to escape from the town. Also, we cannot let the Japanese transmit the intelligence."
"Yes! I guarantee the completion of the mission!"
The officers of the Guard Regiment, along with the regiment commander, quickly left. The staff officer of the Guard Regiment was taken away by people from the Political Department.
Later, the division commander ordered the First and Third Regiments to leave the camp and assist the Second Regiment in sealing off the section from the artillery division to the town.
The order was: Arrest anyone you see!
Meanwhile, Zhou Lin hurried to the exit and found it unguarded.
This indicated that someone had left. They left in a hurry without covering the exit.
No need to say more, the Japanese spy had already left.
Zhou Lin chased out, still unable to find Xiaonian.
At this moment, Zhou Lin saw Zheng Dafu leading the security company in the search.
Zhou Lin said, "Big brother, the Japanese spy may have already left. Give me a car, I'll go to the town."
Zheng Dafu
immediately said, "There are enough searchers here. I'll bring the security company with you."
"Good!"
Zheng Dafu instructed someone to report to Commander Zhou. He then drove the car towards the town at high speed.
After driving for a while, they were close to the town. They saw a car ahead.
Zhou Lin's heart moved. "What car is that?"
"The main cafeteria's grocery truck."
Zhou Lin ordered, "Catch up with that car. The Japanese spy and the traitor are on that car."
Zhou Lin's guess was correct. The reason they didn't catch up with Xiaonian was because Tang Qinwei drove the grocery truck to send Xiaonian away, so they escaped quickly. When the people from the Second Regiment came out, they had already left the search area.
Just as they were approaching the town, Xiaonian saw the lights behind them.
"Damn, they caught up."
Xiaonian knew he was unfamiliar with the place, and he was an important target. Now that they had caught up, it would be difficult to escape.
