It was not until the second half of the night that the underground party intelligence station sent another telegram, saying that they had done their best to get involved in the XC area. Two underground party intelligence personnel died, but they still couldn't figure out the situation inside.

The person in charge of the underground party was helpless and had to tell them not to expose their goals and to save themselves.

As soon as the sky was dawn, he came to Gao Jiu and said worriedly: "Mr. Gao, the Japanese must have conspiracy. They blocked the entire XC area. The underground party intelligence personnel could not get close to them, so they could not figure out what conspiracy there was in the Japanese army. I can conclude that the reason why the Japanese army blocked the entire XC area was that they would definitely make trouble in it. There is a great possibility that the secretly set up artillery to deal with you."

In order to avoid Gao Jiu's uneasiness, the head of the underground party did not tell him that there had been news of the death of two intelligence officers in order to spy on intelligence.

Gao Jiu nodded and said, "It is inevitable that the Japanese devils will be cheating. Since they are blocked so closely, notify your people not to expose themselves to avoid unnecessary casualties."

Gao Jiu and the head of the underground party did not say anything grateful to each other. After a long battle, they had already established a deep friendship and had a close relationship with each other. They could put themselves in the shoes of each other at any time and did not need to say anything unnecessary.

Du Shengxi couldn't sleep well that night. He was too familiar with artillery and knew that if the Japanese army concentrated artillery fired together, even if Jiu Ye was very skilled, it would be difficult to avoid danger.

As soon as the sky was dawn, he came to find Zhang Quan, feeling that before the Ninth Master started the competition, he sent reconnaissance planes to hover over Tai'an City. Even if the enemy's hidden artillery could not be found, it could at least threaten the Japanese army to not dare to set up artillery on the city walls.

Zhang Quan had already made up his mind to do this. He did not seek Gao Jiu's opinion and directly sent a telegram to the air force in Taohua Mountain. Not only did he send a reconnaissance plane to reconnaissance, but he also sent a team of bombers to hover over Tai'an City, posing a serious threat to the Japanese army. As long as the Japanese artillery was discovered, the bombing would be launched immediately.

At 7:30 in the morning, Sanpu Jun sent a telegram saying that Yang Jiong had been released by them and was now outside the village of Gaolin Village, asking Gao Jiu to send someone to confirm.

Nowadays, there are anti-Japanese armed people everywhere outside Tai'an City, including a large number of guerrillas carrying radio telephones. Near Gaolin Village is no exception. After receiving a notice from the command center, they immediately went outside the village to search. Sure enough, they found Yang Jiong who was tied up and reported to Gao Jiu.

Gao Jiu and Yang Jiong talked in person and confirmed that he had not been hurt at all, so he felt relieved.

Just near Gaolin Village, the guerrillas intercepted a carriage of unknown origin, with three people on the carriage. One of them reported his identity and said that he was Sanpu Jun.

The guerrillas reported this situation to Gao Jiu and asked whether they would be detained.

Gao Jiu is a world-renowned anti-Japanese hero, and another person who is committed and keeps his promises. He asked the guerrillas to let Sanpu Jun enter Tai'an City.

Miupu Jun and others entered the city, and the commander of the 142nd Division was waiting for him near the city gate. Miupu Jun did not care about greetings and asked, "Secretary Commander, are the artillery ready?"

The division commander, like most Japanese soldiers, does not like people from the special high school class. However, the situation today is different. He looked at Miupu Jun in front of him and respected the special high school director who was willing to sacrifice his life to die with Gao Jiu.

He nodded and said, "Miura Jun, the artillery has been arranged, and hundreds of artillery have been marked with the shooting elements. You can fire at the same time to ensure that there is no accident."

After listening to the words of the division commander, a tragic feeling surged into Sanpu Jun's heart. Although it was his choice to die with Gao Jiu, when he was facing this moment, his emotions were still very complicated. His respected teacher, Tu Feiyuan, finally chose to sacrifice himself, and he would inevitably feel sad in his heart.

The division commander said, "Sanpu Jun, the time for the competition is approaching, so you can take a rest first."

Miura Jun had not had breakfast yet, and he asked, "Is there any ready-made meal?"

The division commander asked someone to take Miupu Jun and others to have dinner.

Outside the city, Gao Jiu had already had breakfast early. He could not eat enough before the martial arts competition. If he was too full and had a vigorous activity immediately, it would cause serious physical discomfort and cause physical strength to decrease.

The time for the competition is almost here, and everyone gathers around Gao Jiu to send Gao Jiu out of the battle.

Gao Jiu couldn't help laughing when he saw everyone's nervous look.

He said with ease: "What are you doing? It seems like you are going to be separated from one's life and death."

Everyone thought to themselves: "Isn't this just separation from life and death?"

Regarding Jiu Ye's skills, everyone believed that Miupu Jun was definitely not his opponent. But everyone was worried that the Japanese would use fraud, so the problem would be serious.

Everyone wanted to say some relaxed words to boost Gao Jiu's morale, but Gao Jiu joked with them, comforted everyone, and relieved everyone's tension.

The time is 9:30, and the time for the competition is coming soon. You can see Miupu Jun out of the city gate with a follower. Zhang Quan is also preparing to accompany Gao Jiu.

Gao Jiu and Zhang Quan were about to leave when they heard a rapid sound of horse hooves. Before the person arrived, the voice had already come: "Brother Jiu."

Gao Jiu heard the familiar voice and turned his head to see Jiang Xiaomei racing towards her horse.

Gao Jiu stopped and Jiang Xiaomei quickly came to him. She slammed the horse with both hands, and the war horse neighed. The man stood up. Before it could stand firm, Jiang Xiaomei had already jumped off the horse's back.

Gao Jiu said gentlely to Jiang Xiaomei: "Girl, you are here."

Looking at the lover in front of her, Jiang Xiaomei's eyes became wet in an instant. She shouted "Brother Jiu" excitedly. She wanted to pounce into Gao Jiu's broad arms. However, after all, she was a senior cadre of the underground party. There were many underground party officers and soldiers around her, all looking at this place, and she could only resist the impulse.

Gao Jiu knew that she had a lot to say to her alone, so he walked to the side.

Jiang Xiaomei walked side by side with him, Gao Jiu said with concern as he walked: "Girl, are you doing well recently?"

Hearing this, Jiang Xiaomei couldn't help but feel aggrieved, so she started crying.

Gao Jiu understood her mood. He wanted to take her into his arms to comfort her, but he could not do this in front of so many officers and soldiers in the underground party. He could not give Jiang Xiaomei a future, so he had to take into account her reputation.

Gao Jiu took out a handkerchief from his pocket and handed it to Jiang Xiaomei.

Jiang Xiaomei took the handkerchief, wiped her tears, and asked with concern: "Brother Jiu, are you sure you want to compete with the Japanese?"

Gao Jiu laughed and said, "Girl, don't you understand me yet?"

Of course, Jiang Xiaomei was familiar with Gao Jiu's extraordinary skills, but after all, this was a life-and-death battle with the Japanese invaders. She couldn't help but remind: "Brother Jiu, you have to be careful."

Gao Jiu smiled and said, "Girl, don't worry. The time for the competition is coming. You can wait here. I will go back and talk to you when I come back."

Jiang Xiaomei has thousands of words, but she knows that she is not convenient to say more at this time, so she avoids Gao Jiu’s distraction.

She smiled on her beautiful face and said, "Brother Jiu, I believe you will definitely win. I'll wait for you to come back."

Gao Jiu nodded with a smile, and then walked towards Tai'an City.

Jiang Xiaomei looked at Gao Jiu's back as she gradually faded away, and tears couldn't help but flow down again.

Gao Jiu and Miura Jun finally met.

According to the agreement, Zhang Quan went to check Sanpu Jun. Sanpu Jun's assistants came to check Gao Jiu to see if they were carrying other weapons.

Soon after, the inspection was completed between the two sides.

Miupu Jun took the command knife from his assistant, and Gao Jiu also took a red tassel sword from Zhang Quan's hand. The two of them wanted to use traditional cold weapons to have a life-and-death duel.

Zhang Quan really wanted to stay here to accompany Master Jiu, but he knew that if the Japanese arranged artillery, he would become a burden to Master Jiu.

So he said goodbye to Gao Jiu and returned to his camp.

Miupu Jun's assistant also returned to Tai'an City.

Miura Jun looked at the handsome young man in front of him and said respectfully: "Are you Mr. Gao Jiugao?"

Gao Jiu nodded and said, "I am Gao Jiu."

Miura Jun said: "Mr. Gao, I have long admired Daming,..."

Miupu Jun deliberately talked to Gao Jiu in order to gain time so that the artillery soldiers in the city can be prepared.

Gao Jiu interrupted him and said coldly: "Stop talking nonsense, come on."

Miupu Jun held the command knife in both hands, stared at Gao Jiu tightly, roared, raised the knife and slashed towards Gao Jiu.

Gao Jiu was in place and saw Miupu Jun's blade slashing over, so he raised the big knife in his hand to block it.

Sanpu Jun slashed several times, but Gao Jiu was blocked by a large knife.

Sanpu Jun attacked frantically, Gao Jiu responded calmly, not in a hurry to counterattack, but had to first look at Sanpu Jun's sword skills.

The Japanese artillery commander stood in the city tower and used a telescope to observe the battle between Gao Jiu and Miura Jun.

At this time, the communications soldiers had already received calls from all artillery positions. The commander observed and corrected the shooting elements. Since the artillery soldiers were not in the same position, their shooting elements were also different. The commander gave the coordinates of the position where the artillery soldiers Gao Jiu was, and asked the artillery soldiers to correct the shooting elements themselves.

At this moment, the roar of the plane suddenly came from the sky, and then two reconnaissance planes appeared in the sky, and a large number of bombers flew over behind them.

The artillery commander was not worried about this situation. This was long ago as he expected. The artillery was scattered in hidden places, and it was difficult to detect reconnaissance aircraft in high altitudes.

The sudden appearance of the plane made Gao Jiu complain in his heart.

These planes were arranged by Zhang Quan and others. They wanted to deter the Japanese army in the air to avoid the Japanese playing tricks. Because they thought Gao Jiu might not agree to do this, it seemed that he was too careful and affected his reputation. They discussed sending the plane over without hiding Gao Jiu.

Unexpectedly, this would disrupt Gao Jiu's plan.

Gao Jiu's ears are very sensitive. If the enemy uses artillery to fire at him, the sound from the muzzle can be heard when the shell is fired. The speed of the shell flying lags behind the speed of the sound propagation. In this way, Gao Jiu will be left with time to react and can quickly escape.

The plane was flying in the air. With the huge roar, it was much more difficult for Gao Jiu to identify the sound of the gun shells fired.

The sudden situation forced Gao Jiu to be more careful. He had to face Miupu Jun in front of him, and at the same time distracted from listening to the sound of the cannon fire.

Gao Jiu gave Sanpu Jun seven or eight moves in a row, roughly figuring out his way.

In order to resolve the battle as soon as possible and escape from danger, Gao Jiu no longer fought with Miupu Jun. He waved his big sword to block the sword from Miupu Jun and slashed towards Miupu Jun's face.

Miupu Jun saw Gao Jiu's big sword slashing over and waved his command knife to block it.

With a sound of hearing, Gao Jiu's big sword and Miupu Jun's command sword collided fiercely.

Gao Jiu was extremely powerful, and he used all his strength again at this time. The force of this knife was so fierce. Although Miupu Jun held the knife with both hands, he still felt a numbness in his arms, and a heat from the tiger's mouth, bleeding was oozing out.

Gao Jiu did not give him a chance to fight back, and waved his big knife and cut it down continuously.

Miura Jun gritted his teeth and blocked it with a knife. Gao Jiu shouted, held the knife in both hands, and slashed hard at Miura Jun's head.

Although Miupu Jun could not resist it, he could only swing his sword to block it when he saw Gao Jiu's moves so fast.

The big sword and the commanding knife hit violently, and a powerful force spread to Miupu Jun's arm.

He couldn't bear it anymore, so he had to release the hilt of the knife and flew out in an instant.

Gao Jiu didn't wait for Miupu Jun to react, and tiptoed forward with his left foot and kicked his right foot out.

With a puff sound, Gao Jiu kicked Miupu Jun's right foot.

With a slight sound of bone shattering, Sanpu Jun's ribs were kicked and several people flew out. He vomited blood and lay directly on the ground.

The Japanese artillery commander on the city tower saw this situation and hurriedly ordered the artillery to be fired.

The artillery soldiers were already ready and fired shells together after hearing the order.

Gao Jiu saw Miupu Jun lying on the ground and was about to step forward and make up for it. It completely killed him when he heard the sound of shells being fired.

Although there was a huge roar when the plane flew in the sky, there were too many artillery guns from the Japanese. Although the sound of one artillery was weak, so many artillery fired at the same time, the sound still reached Gao Jiu's ears.

Gao Jiu threw away the big knife in his hand and ran out like a sharp arrow.

The Japanese division commander and artillery commander had already heard the sharp whistling sound of artillery shells passing by overhead. They were looking forward to the large number of artillery being able to eliminate Gao Jiu.
Chapter completed!
