The person in charge of the underground party reported to the main person in charge of the underground party and handed over the funds sent by Jiang Xiaomei. He said regretfully: "It's such a pity. If Gao Jiu can join the underground party organization, he will definitely strengthen the combat effectiveness of our Jinan underground party organization."

Xu Zhongming and Zhou Mingshan were also very happy. They specially sent someone to the restaurant to buy wine and food, and drank and congratulate him.

Wuhan.

Gao Jiu successfully assassinated Ayumi Hamasaki, and the morale of the anti-Japanese military and civilians in the rear was greatly boosted. Everyone was worried about whether he could leave Jinan City safely.

ggThe senior executives of both sides received news from the Jinan Underground Party and the Military Control Commission of Jinan Station, proving that Gao Jiu had left Jinan City safely. ggThe senior executives of both sides immediately reported the good news to the public through their respective media. The people in Wuhan and other places in the rear were very happy to hear the good news. Many people set off firecrackers on the streets to express their joy.

Lin Yanni finally got approval from the newspaper. She carried a suitcase alone and embarked on the way to southern Shandong.

The Fifth Military Information Agency...

That morning, Major Qin Feng, the Operations Section Chief of the MIIS, Captain Zhao Guosheng, the Intelligence Section Chief of the Information Section, and Captain Lin Yanni, the Information Section Chief of the Telecommunications Section, were called to the Director's office.

The director said: "The news came this morning that yesterday, Deputy Director Liu Zhimin had an accident when he received an information about the latest trends of the Japanese army. Now he has been locked up in a prisoner of war camp in Lanxi County, and his identity has not been revealed. This information is very important and concerns the safety of Wuhan. The Military Intelligence Department decided to send you three people to the southern part of Shandong to try to rescue Deputy Director Liu Zhimin and bring back the information he obtained."

Not long after, Lin Yanni and others also embarked on the way to southern Shandong.

Yanggezhuang, Ruifeng County.

The members of the District Team, holding the seized weapons, couldn't let go of them. The Captain of the District Team Li Qiang was particularly intimate with Gao Jiu and others, hoping to give them some.

Gao Jiu smiled and said, "If you like these weapons, I will give them to you!"

The members of the district team were very happy and cheered.

Li Qiang said excitedly: "Thank you, Master Jiu, and thank you all the heroes of Taohua Mountain."

Gao Hong was also happy for the district team. He said sincerely: "I have heard that you have given great help to Captain Jiang's Shoucheng County Brigade, and today we helped our district team again. On behalf of the underground party organization in Jinan, I would like to express my sincere thanks to Jiu Ye and the brothers in Taohua Mountain."

At this moment, he also changed his name to Master Jiu. This is a kind of respect from the bottom of his heart.

Gao Jiu said: "I see that the brothers in the district squadron live a hard life. Do you want to improve your life?"

Li Qiang's district team suddenly obtained so many weapons and ammunition, and he said that he had changed the cannons by bird guns and was eager to go there quickly. He said excitedly: "Master Jiu, you will take us to fight another battle. There is really a rich place here, I will take you there."

Li Qiang said that there is a Japanese gold mine 45 miles away from Taoxi River. The enemy troops in the mine have more than 20 Japanese and more than 50 puppet troops.

The nearest Japanese stronghold to the gold mine is more than 30 miles away, with more than 80 Japanese and puppet troops inside. This is the reinforcements of the enemy that you can encounter when fighting the gold mine.

In normal times, Li Qiang dared not think about having so many strongholds of the Japanese and puppet army. He did not hesitate at all and recommended this target to Gao Jiu and others. He didn't think about it at all. Even if Gao Jiu and others were added, there were only more than 30 people in total.

Gao Jiu needs money now. In a few days, he will go to Jinan City and buy a large number of supplies. Then he thought about taking Li Qiang and others to make some money.

Now that I heard that there is a gold mine, Gao Jiu's eyes suddenly shone. He smiled and said, "Okay! Then let's go to the gold mine."

Gao Hong believed that Gao Jiu and others could capture the gold mine, but now there were too few people. Li Qiang and his district team had no combat experience and could only make up individual numbers. Even if they were to make up the number of people, they would only be more than 30 people. There were seventy or eighty Japanese and puppet troops in the gold mine, including more than 20 Japanese and Japanese soldiers. It would not be so easy to defeat them, not to mention that those Japanese may receive reinforcements.

He thought about it and couldn't help but say, "Jiu Master, are there too few people in our country? If not, just change the target."

Gao Jiu smiled and said, "It's easy to deal with fewer people, but there are ready-made ones right now."

After saying that, he turned his eyes to the puppet soldiers. The puppet soldiers were standing there. When they saw Gao Jiu looking over, they immediately stood up straight, but their legs trembled involuntarily.

Gao Jiu waved to Shi Jianlong, the commander of the puppet army platoon, and Shi Jianlong immediately ran over. He stood in front of Gao Jiu and stood at him, saluting Gao Jiu. He said, "Report to Master Jiu, we dare not go against you. We have automatically put down our weapons. Please forgive me."

Gao Jiu smiled and said, "Yes, I don't mean to blame you. What's your name?"

"Report to Master Jiu, my name is Shi Jianlong." Shi Jianlong hurriedly stood at attention again.

Gao Jiu said: "Platform leader Shi, don't be nervous. Come, sit down and talk."

Gao Jiu said: "Platform Commander Shi, I think you are a smart person, so I will tell you one thing: Although the Japanese are very powerful now, they will not make trouble for a few years, and they will be driven away sooner or later. When the puppet army has no future. When the Japanese leave in the future, I don't think I need to say anything, you know how the people treat traitors.

I have a suggestion. I think you are a good person and want you to follow me in the future. Are you willing?"

Shi Jianlong is really a smart person. He knew that he surrendered without a fight this time, and the Japanese knew that they would never have any good results. He didn't really want to follow the Japanese, as he was helpless.

He has heard too much about Gao Jiu's legend. It would be a very glorious thing to keep up with a great hero like Gao Jiu.

He said without hesitation: "Master Jiu looks down on me, I will take care of it. From now on, I will follow you, Master Jiu."

Gao Jiu was very happy, patted Shi Jianlong on the shoulder and smiled, "I just like you, and you will be my brother in the future."

Gao Jiu's attitude made Shi Jianlong feel flattered, and he grinned happily.

Gao Jiu said, "I am going to go to the Taoxi River gold mine now. You go and ask your brothers if you want to go with me. After robbing the gold mine, I will give you a part. As for you in the future, you are willing to join the anti-Japanese team, we welcome you. If you don't want to, give him some money and let him go home."

Hearing this, Shi Jianlong became more and more excited. He immediately said, "Go, everyone will go. Who among those bastards dare not go? I will shoot them as soon as possible." After that, he stood up and ran back to the puppet troops.

After a while, Shi Jianlong ran back and said, "Master Jiu, everyone has agreed! Brothers are willing to follow you."

Gao Jiu called Li Qiang over and said, "You will give your weapons back to some of these brothers."

Li Qiang looked at the puppet soldiers and was obviously a little unwilling to do so. He said, "Jiu Master, this, this is it, they are puppet soldiers, and I'm a little worried."

Gao Jiu smiled and said, "Captain Li, they are willing to fight the Japanese with us now, and they are our brothers. I can trust them. Let's do this. When the gold mine is captured, I guess I can seize more than a hundred guns, and then all the weapons will belong to you."

"Really? OK! I've listened to you, and you can do whatever you say." As he said that, he stood up and returned all the surplus guns to Shi Jianlong and others.

Shi Jianlong and others were moved to see Gao Jiu trusting them so much, and became more and more happy.

Gao Jiu and others set off a fire, burned the Yanggezhuang artillery tower, and set out towards the Taoxi River gold mine.

After walking for more than ten miles, Shi Jianlong suddenly remembered something. He came to Gao Jiu and said, "Master Jiu, I have another suggestion. I don't know whether to talk about it or not."

Gao Jiu said: "You are your brother now, just say whatever you have."

Shi Jianlong said: "There is a stronghold and a platoon of security troops 5 miles away from Liuzhuang here. The platoon leader is my brother. I want to persuade him to go with Jiu Ye to go to the gold mine. I don't know if it's OK?"

Gao said, "Okay! Then that's it, let's go to Liuzhuang together."

The team continued to move forward and arrived at the fork in front of him. Shi Jianlong led the way in front and turned to the fork on the right.

It didn't take long, and you could see a cannon tower from afar.

Shi Jianlong said, "Master Jiu, you are waiting here. I will go in and see my brother first."

Gao Jiu and others sat in the woods on the side of the road to rest, and Shi Jianlong walked towards the stronghold alone.

Liang Shihu, the platoon leader of the puppet army in Liuzhuang stronghold, was not tall, but had good kung fu and good marksmanship. He had a high prestige among the puppet army.

He was whispering when he heard that Shi Jianlong was coming. Not long ago, he had just received a notice from the Ruifeng County Military Police Team that Gao Jiu and others had already captured the Yanggezhuang stronghold. He was worried about Shi Jianlong's safety at that time, and he had called to ask, but the telephone line had been cut off, so he knew that something must have happened to Shi Jianlong and the others.

At this moment, when he saw Shi Jianlong coming, he thought something was wrong.

He did not let the suspension bridge be lowered, and stood on the roof of the artillery tower and said, "Brother Jianlong, why are you here?"

There were also two Japanese in the Liuzhuang stronghold. Shi Jianlong didn't know if they could understand Chinese, and it was not convenient for him to explain his purpose.

He said, "Liang Shihu, what do you mean? We are brothers, I'll come from all over to see you. Are you just treating me like that?"

Liang Shihu was embarrassed. He got off the artillery tower and came to the suspension bridge alone. He asked, "Brother Jianlong, I heard that Gao Jiu went to your artillery tower. Are you okay?"

Shi Jianlong said, "Aren't you talking nonsense? Am I standing here well? If you don't let me in, I won't go in. You can come out, I have something to tell you."

Liang Shihu looked around and found nothing unusual, so he let the artillery tower lower the suspension bridge and walked out by himself.

After hearing Shi Jianlong explain his purpose, Liang Shihu said unconvincedly: "You said that Gao Jiuye is so powerful in his shooting skills, isn't it true?"

Shi Jianlong said, "Can I still lie to you? You know that Jiu Ye wants to kill that Japanese Grandpa in Jinan City?"

The news in the countryside was blocked, and the Japanese and puppet troops deliberately avoided the taboos. Liang Shihu really didn't know that Gao Jiu had defeated Ayumi Hamasaki.

On the way here, Shi Jianlong was also very curious about this matter. He had asked Zhang Quan and others about the situation at that time. He said, "I know that you have good marksmanship, but compared with Jiu Ye, you are far inferior to the horizon.

I'll tell you, do you know how Master Jiu knocked out the Japanese? It was more than 900 meters away, and it hit the Japanese in the forehead with one shot."

Liang Shihu widened his eyes and said in surprise: "This is impossible, absolutely impossible. If it exceeds 300 meters, the gun will lose its accurate head. 900 meters? How is this possible?"

Shi Jianlong said: "Do you believe it or not?"

The two Japanese in my artillery tower were shot by Jiu Ye from a distance, and his head was broken.

I told Master Jiu that if you follow Master Jiu, you can ask Master Jiu to teach you how to shoot."

As a Shandong native, Liang Shihu worships the ancient Liangshan heroes, and the characters like the Supreme Nine are naturally very admiring. He said: "If this Master Gao Jiu is really as magical as you said, I will do it with him. But you have to let him show off your skills and I will be convinced."

Shi Jianlong said helplessly: "You are just a bad temper. You won't cry until you see the coffin, and you won't give up until the Yellow River. I'll talk to Master Jiu now."

After Shi Jianlong left, Liang Shihu returned to the roof of the artillery tower. He took the rifle from the soldier standing guard, picked up a can with a bayonet, and raised it up.

Just as I heard a "bang" gunshot, the canned box on the bayonet was beaten up. Before the canned box could land, there were a few more gunshots, and the canned box was beaten up higher and higher.

Liang Shihu's eyes shone with admiration. Without saying a word, he pulled out the box cannon from his waist and walked into the artillery tower.

As soon as he got down to the third floor, he saw two Japanese coming up. One of them asked, "Liang, there are guns outside, what's the matter?"

Liang Shihu cursed, "Your grandma is in the situation." As he said that, he raised the box cannon and pointed it at the chest of the two Japanese, and shot them dead with one shot.

Not long after, Liang Shihu walked out with a platoon of puppet troops in the artillery tower.

Gao Jiu and others burned down the Liuzhuang stronghold and continued to head towards the Taoxi River gold mine.
