Scholars in the courtyard

"By the way, what happened in the courtyard recently?"

Yu Zecheng felt much better after drinking the broth, and then asked about things in the hospital.

Cuiping put down the lunch box, sat aside and picked up a cucumber, which was grown in Yang Xiaotao's yard.

Bang

After Cuiping took a bite, he said, "Recently, the machinery factory has developed a threshing machine, which is said to thresh wheat very quickly."

"It couldn't be Yang Xiaotao who did it, right?"

"You really guessed it right, it was him."

"Recently, the news has spread in the surrounding villages, and I have also visited it. It is indeed very trouble-free. If this machine had been available back then, the people in our village would not have to work for the landlords, and they would be able to support themselves."

Cuiping talked carelessly, and the scenes of the past were told to her like a story. Yu Zecheng listened and talked about it with great interest.

After Cuiping had finished talking for a while, he finally stopped.

When Yu Zecheng saw that she had finished speaking, his face widened, "I knew it was him. Speaking of which, our operation was successful thanks to his night vision goggles."

"This is how I saved my life."

Cuiping ate the cucumber bite by bite, and became even more curious when he heard his man say this.

Why are you still related to Yang Xiaotao?

So he took out another one and stuffed it into the other person's hand, "Where have you been? What have you been doing?"

Yu Zecheng took the cucumber and took a bite. It was crisp and a little sweet.

After a moment of silence, Yu Zecheng saw that there was no one else in the room. Moreover, Cuiping was also part of the establishment and had always received special allowances, so he was considered one of his own.

Then he bit into the cucumber and fell into memories, "It was June 5th when I left."

"I know, you don't need to tell me this."

Bang

The cucumber was broken into pieces by Cuiping, one piece with each hand and one piece with each mouthful.

Yu Zecheng hurriedly lowered his head, and then continued, "I received an urgent mission and asked me to lead a team to Shanghai."

"Shanghai? So far?"

"Say, keep talking."

As soon as Cuiping finished speaking, he saw Yu Zecheng frowning and hurriedly shut up and let Yu Zecheng continue.

"We caught a clue here before, but the clue finally pointed to Shanghai, so we arranged for us to go there."

"The comrades over there in Shanghai are the three Zheng Chaoyang and Bai Ling I mentioned to you. I will take Xiao Liu's team there to assist in the work."

"After I led the team over to hand over the situation to them, I discovered that the situation was more serious than we thought."

"What's going on?"

Cuiping couldn't help but ask. She was very impatient. It was okay to let her tell stories, but listening to them slowly was like cutting her flesh with a knife, which was not pleasant.

Yu Zecheng knew his wife's temperament, and he also knew that she might not remember it if he told her in too much detail.

Just keep it short and summarize the matter.

"To talk about this, we have to start with two sea battles."

Cuiping sat quietly aside. This time she did not interrupt Yu Zecheng's story, and she also understood the cause of the matter.

She had also heard about the naval battle Yu Zecheng talked about, especially the first time it was published in the newspapers.

That time, our side used a 100-ton gunboat to raid the opponent's Osprey submarine hunting ship, which was an advanced ship delivered to them by the United States.

They only have three ships in total. Now, one of them has become one of our own combat forces.

The second time I heard that our side took the initiative to attack the opponent at night, causing three gunboats to be sunk.

After two consecutive strikes, the opponent realized that the domestic development speed of ships had surpassed them.

If not contained in time, they will lose their maritime advantage, and there will be no way to stop the thousands of land forces at that time.

Therefore, in view of the secrets of domestic ship development, they sent a large number of personnel to inquire about the information, trying to find the reasons and destroy them.

In this case, Yu Zecheng and the others caught each other's tail in Sijiucheng, and then followed the lead to Shanghai.

"In fact, comrades in Shanghai have long discovered that there are people acting suspiciously outside the shipyard, and have also conducted an investigation."

"But these people all have foreign status. When we went there, after confirming it, we were ready to take preventive measures and take action in advance."

"But we didn't expect that we would be ambushed."

"Ambush? Is there a mole?"

Cuiping immediately exclaimed.

Years of combat experience told her that if there was an ambush, it was because the intelligence work was not in place.

Intelligence errors are often caused by someone betraying them.

Sure enough, Yu Zecheng nodded and confirmed Cuiping's judgment.

"It's not from our team, it's a security guard from the shipyard."

"How come?"

Although Yu Zecheng said it, Cuiping still couldn't believe it.

For the other party to be able to become a security guard for such an important department in the shipyard, whether it is beliefs or life experience, they should have been investigated. In other words, the people here should be staunch revolutionaries.

How could it be.

Unless, it's a lurker.

Seeing Cuiping's eyes, Yu Zecheng knew what she was thinking.

But this time, Cuiping was disappointed again.

I saw Yu Zecheng shaking his head, "He is not a hidden man, nor a cold chessman. He even has no relationship with that side."

"His life experience is innocent, cleaner than the two of us."

"Then, what is he doing for?"

Cuiping was even more confused. He couldn't figure out what this person was doing.

Yu Zecheng finished eating the cucumber and felt a little thirsty. When Cuiping saw him, he quickly picked up the jar and handed it over.

After Yu Zecheng finished drinking, he leaned on the bed again.

However, he did not continue to talk about this person, but talked about the operation.

"That night, we started the arrest."

"The operation location was by the river. Maybe because we were outsiders, the residents around were very sensitive to us. Many people pointed fingers at us. I think we were discovered by the insider at that time."

"We didn't have many people in the operation, but they were all elite. Comrades in Shanghai had cooperated many times and knew each other."

"Everything was normal at first, until we were about a hundred meters before entering the other party's house, Xiao Liu suddenly pushed me aside, and then gunshots rang out."

Speaking of this, Yu Zecheng looked painful.

At that moment, several comrades fell beside him.

Among them were the people he brought with him.

"What happened later."

Yu Zecheng calmed down, "The other party was obviously prepared in advance. If Xiao Liu hadn't used the night vision goggles to find out something was wrong in advance, we would not have been able to escape if we went another 30 meters forward."

"Later, with the help of the night vision goggles, we fought back and persisted. Finally, support came, and the other party ran away.

"Run away?"

"Yeah! "

Yu Zecheng sighed deeply, his face was even more helpless.

For him, this failure was not only the loss of two comrades, but also a blow to his self-confidence.

"I was in the hospital when I woke up. Later, I asked Xiao Liu and learned from him that the other party finally jumped into the Huangpu River and took a speedboat prepared in advance to escape."

"When we caught up, there was only a boat, but no one."

"Where did they go?"

Cui Ping asked anxiously, and Yu Zecheng shook his head.

The two were silent. It was always difficult to accept such things.

"What's the matter with the inner ghost?"

Cui Ping returned to the original question.

Yu Zecheng nodded, "Later, when I was recovering from my injuries, Zheng Chaoyang in Shanghai found me and told me about the arrest."

"He said that when searching the other party's residence, they found the weapons they carried."

Speaking of this, Yu Zecheng was full of caution.

As if that kind of weapon was so scary, Cui Ping saw him like this and frowned and asked, "Weapons?"

"What kind of weapons have we not seen? Our comrades are not vegetarians. "

"Besides, there are so many militias, so many people, dare to cause trouble, they must be tired of living"

As Cuiping said, Yu Zecheng swallowed the cucumber in his mouth, his eyes were full of cruelty.

"This time is different."

"After all."

Just as Cuiping was about to speak, she saw a painful look on Yu Zecheng's face.

"This time, the weapons they brought were not guns and ammunition, but something."

"Things, what?"

"Things that harm people."

When Yu Zecheng said this, he put his finger on his nose and wiped it.

When Cuiping heard this and saw Yu Zecheng's actions, a white object immediately appeared in her mind.

When she was lurking with Yu Zecheng, she had seen many high-ranking officials and wealthy people who liked this thing.

Afterwards, after the founding of the People's Republic of China, the country vigorously cracked down on it, with a zero-tolerance attitude, and once wiped out those things that harmed people.

It also made the world clear.

I thought there would be no such thing again, but I didn't expect that the other party would come again.

"How is it possible? How can it be brought in? "

Cui Ping looked incredulous.

But what Yu Zecheng said made her believe it.

"These guys used these things to control several people, including the security guard."

"Who would have thought that a twenty-year-old boy would be completely corrupted because of this."

Thinking of this, Yu Zecheng felt a pang of pain in his heart.

"So, what happened in the end?"

Cui Ping suddenly became serious, with a similar expression to Yu Zecheng.

"I don't know how the other party disappeared, but the news should have been leaked."

"In other words, they have already found out about the true situation of the shipyard?"

Cui Ping frowned. The importance of intelligence work can sometimes determine the success or failure of a battle.

It can even affect the entire battle situation.

"Well! ”

“If I hadn’t dragged down my comrades, I would…”

Knock knock

When the door was knocked, Cuiping stood up and quickly gathered her mood. She looked like a farm girl again, with a silly smile on her face.

Yu Zecheng saw it and felt sorry for his wife.

If she was still on the front line, her performance would not be worse than his.

However, as a wife, he would rather she stay away from the smoke of war and live an ordinary life.

At least life is good now.

Cuiping stood up and walked to the door, opened the door, and looked at the person standing outside.

It was a middle-aged man with an ordinary face. At first glance, he looked like an old man playing chess on the roadside, without any characteristics.

But her intuition told her that the old man in front of her was not simple.

There were two people following behind him, one of whom was Xiao Liu, who she often saw.

Seeing this, Cuiping glanced at the old man and quickly made way.

“Comrade Wang Cuiping, I often hear Xiao Yu talk about you.”

The old man smiled and said, Cuiping smiled, “Old Yu in my family will not say good things about me. ”

“Haha, this person is really cheerful.”

The old man was not embarrassed by Cuiping’s words, but became closer.

“Commander, why are you here?”

Yu Zecheng looked at the old man who came in.

The last time he met this man was because of the problem with the books in the library.

Since then, they rarely met because of work issues.

The middle-aged man behind the old man was his former superior, Section Chief Zeng.

When he was the team leader, this person was the section chief.

Later, he became the section chief and director, and this person has been moving up. Now he is helping the old man to deal with things. Anyone with a discerning eye knows that Director Zeng will be the successor in the future.

"Leader, you are here too."

Director Zeng stepped forward to check Yu Zecheng's injuries, his eyes full of care, and then nodded, "I told the chief about this operation, and the chief wanted to come and see it."

"Such a big thing, Lao Chen from the Shanghai Shipyard called me, how can I sit still!"

The old man said, looked at the fruit lunch box on the table, and nodded, "It's good to be able to eat, you have to heal your injury as soon as possible."

"Otherwise, you can't avenge this hatred."

Yu Zecheng's face was stern, "What do you mean, Chief?"

Cui Ping stood aside and looked at Xiao Liu, Xiao Liu shook his head, saying that he didn't know either.

Director Zeng on the side said, "This time, we are going to form a joint investigation team with comrades in Shanghai."

"The key is to find these people and kill them."

The old man nodded, "So, let me see if you can bear this heavy responsibility. If not, let the comrades in Shanghai come."

Yu Zecheng immediately sat up from the bed, then stood up and saluted with his left hand, "Please rest assured, I have no problem, I promise to complete the task."

At this moment, Yu Zecheng's eyes were blazing.

At this moment, Cuiping in the back did not stop, but stepped forward and said to several people, "Report to the chief, Wang Cuiping, the former captain of the Third Guerrilla Team of Jidong, requests to join the action."
