Save the Bachelor of Heaven

Time flies, to thirty years.

In the beginning of spring, there were two heavy rains. As the heavy rain fell, the dry riverbed finally contained water, and the cracked earth finally began to recover.

The trees that had been frozen to death came back to life, and even the weeds began to sprout. The common people finally saw a way to live again, and they ran into the rain happily, feeling the long-lost rain and dew.

After the spring rain, the villagers hurriedly sprinkled the seeds into the ground, hoping for a bumper harvest in summer.

But Xiang Nan knew that the drought was over, but the locust plague was coming again.

Because drought is conducive to the reproduction of locusts. It spawns best in a dry environment with a humidity of 10 to 20 percent.

Plants in arid environments have low water content and are most suitable for locusts to eat and grow, and drought is also conducive to locust migration.

Therefore, after years of severe drought, there will always be locust plagues.

However, locust plagues are very difficult to control. Even in modern times, agricultural technology has been very developed, and there are often news of locust plagues all over the world.

What's more, during the period of the Republic of China, agricultural technology was still very backward, and it was naturally even more difficult to prevent and control locust plagues. Xiang Nan didn't expect anything about it.

...

He is more concerned about things in Xi'an.

According to the timeline in the book and the play, I am afraid that Lu Zhaopeng is going to be in danger.

He was ordered to go to the Maoqin base to find the 36th Army. As a result, Jiang Dacheng, the political commissar of the 36th Army, insisted on going his own way and instigated the army to attack the city of Xi'an.

But in fact, he had already betrayed.

The base of the Thirty-sixth Army is Maoqin, located in the mountainous area of ​​Weibei, which is easy to defend and difficult to attack. Moreover, the team of more than 900 people can easily be dispersed. Therefore, it is very difficult for the national army to enter the mountains to encircle and suppress.

But Weinan is a plain, and there is nowhere to hide when you come here, so you can easily be gathered and wiped out.

Jiang Dacheng wanted to bring the 36th Army out of the mountains, onto the plains, and into the encirclement. At that time, the enemy will be outnumbered and there will be nowhere to hide, so it will be easy to be surrounded and wiped out.

In the play, the Thirty-Sixth Army was almost wiped out, and even Lu Zhaopeng was almost killed.

Moreover, because of Jiang Dacheng's betrayal, the underground party suffered extremely heavy losses. The contact points in the province were almost wiped out, and many comrades including Tailor Han and County Magistrate Hao died because of this.

Xiang Nan couldn't bear to see this tragedy, so he decided to save them.

Immediately, he left Bailuyuan under the pretext of wandering around the world, entered Zishui County, and quietly lurked in the party headquarters of the Nationalist Party, which was located on the ceiling of Yue Weishan's office.

On the surface, Yue Weishan is the Secretary-General of the Zishui County Branch, but in fact, his real identity is the person in charge of the Central Committee stationed in Sanqin.

He leads hundreds of spies in Zishui County, and his task is to eliminate the chaotic party and maintain the rule.

Therefore, by lurking by his side, Xiang Nan can receive first-hand news.

And relying on Xiang Nan's martial arts and the spy skills inherited from James Bond, it is natural for him to track Yue Weishan without any mistakes.

...

After several days of tracking and lurking, Xiang Nan quickly received key information.

A traitor was willing to surrender to Yue Weishan for the sake of a high official and a generous salary. In order to keep it secret, the two met for the first time at a small tea shop in Xi'an City.

Xiang Nan guessed that the traitor should be Jiang Dacheng.

He then followed Yue Weishan to Xi'an City.

Yue Weishan disguised himself as an ordinary small businessman and entered the tea shop.

And some of his subordinates disguised themselves as shopkeepers, waiters, and tea customers of tea shops, and some pretended to be street vendors and beggars... In short, the security measures were very strict, and they were under surveillance within a radius of 100 meters.

If that person is sincerely surrendering, it's all right. If he is baiting a fish and taking the opportunity to assassinate, everyone present will capture him in one fell swoop immediately.

After a while, I saw a tea customer enter the tea shop, but he didn't sit at the same table with Yue Weishan, but sat next to him.

Xiang Nan couldn't be sure whether he was a traitor for a while, so he quickly used Zixia's magical skills to eavesdrop.

But he heard the man whisper, "Master Yue?"

"It's me, are you Shopkeeper Jiang?" Yue Weishan asked.

"It's me." The man nodded and said, "Shopkeeper Yue, the business has been doing well in the past few years. Our business has almost been robbed."

"Praise from shopkeeper Jiang." Yue Weishan smiled, "If you don't mind, why not come to our shop and join us. How about I guarantee you to be the second shopkeeper?"

"Second shopkeeper?" Shopkeeper Jiang was taken aback, then smiled, "How much is the salary?"

"Shopkeeper Jiang is afraid that my brother will be stingy. As long as you are willing to come, I will give you ten small yellow croakers as a gift. After you come, the salary will be equal to mine, how about it?" Yue Weishan laughed, then took out a package from his pocket, Pass it secretly to Shopkeeper Jiang under the table.

"Okay, shopkeeper Yue is really generous." Shopkeeper Jiang took a look, and his eyes lit up, "In that case, we've made a deal."

"Treasurer Jiang is really quick to speak." Yue Weishan smiled, "Brother gave you a gift, so you have to return a gift to brother."

"Okay, then I'll point out the two rabbits first, and I'll cook meat for Shopkeeper Yue." Shopkeeper Jiang said immediately, "Their contact point in the provincial capital is cutting..."

When Xiang Nan heard this, he had already confirmed his identity. Seeing that he was about to reveal the news, he immediately stopped hesitating, took out his pistol, and aimed a shot at Shopkeeper Jiang.

With his marksmanship, it is guaranteed to hit every shot.

Sure enough, with one shot, Shopkeeper Jiang was shot in the head as soon as the words came to his lips.

When Yue Weishan saw it, he was furious, and immediately ordered his men to search around for the shooter.

But there is still time.

After Xiang Nan finished shooting, he left immediately. In a short time, he had already run several miles away, and those spies couldn't catch up even if they were killed.

...

After taking care of the traitor Jiang Dacheng, Xiang Nan quietly went to the tailor shop at night, and collected a series of secrets from Yue Weishan, such as the national army's communist suppression plan, the national army's defense map, the spy's infiltration list, and the telegram to decipher the code. Ben and so on were placed at the door of the tailor shop.

Then, he knocked lightly on the door three times.

Tailor Han just fell asleep when he heard the knock on the door and woke up immediately. Came to the door quietly, looked out through the crack of the door cautiously, and saw the package on the ground.

He quickly took it into the house, opened it, and was shocked.

These are top-secret information, each of which is very precious. If you want to get it, you don't know how much effort you have to put in and how many comrades you sacrifice to achieve it, but now it's dropped out of thin air, it's like a windfall from heaven.

In addition, he also saw a letter from the package, which explained the whole story of Jiang Dacheng's murder.

Tailor Han was taken aback.

He has not received the news of Jiang Dacheng's assassination, but he has met Jiang Dacheng and knows that he is the political commissar of the 36th Army, and he just came to the city for a meeting.

Unexpectedly, he had already been killed, and, besides, he was still a big traitor.

Fortunately, he was executed in time, otherwise, all underground parties would be in danger and would almost be uprooted by him.
