The reason why he told the story about Liu Heihu was, firstly, to test the other party, and secondly, to alert the enemy.
After all, only if they take action can he catch them by the tail.
After talking to Political Commissar Li and submitting the report, Si Nanzhao left immediately.
But he didn't know that after he left, Li Zhigang was so angry that he threw the documents.
He cursed Si Nanzhao in his heart for being so hateful that he secretly hid Liu Heihu. Otherwise, he wouldn't be so passive.
Fortunately, Si Nanzhao was not the only one on the mission. If Si Nanzhao didn't say anything, he could just ask someone else.
Thinking of this, Li Zhigang felt better.
He quickly cleaned up the office, sorted out his feelings, and shouted, "Come here, go get the other people who went on the mission with Si Nanzhao. I have something to ask them."
After hearing this, the orderly guarding outside immediately went to the first regiment and called those people to the office.
When Chen Cheng and the others heard that Political Commissar Li was looking for them, they were very confused. They asked the orderly for information, but he didn't know either.
Finally, they looked at each other and decided to go and see what was going on. After all, since their leader wanted them, there was no reason not to go, unless they didn't want to stay in the army anymore.
Li Zhigang was very enthusiastic when he saw the few people. He first praised them and then began to ask them about their mission.
Chen Cheng and his team were a bit flattered by the praise, but also felt a bit embarrassed. They had been on so many missions before, and other leaders had praised them before. But it seemed that this was the first time that Political Commissar Li had praised them so directly and so differently.
Fortunately, Political Commissar Li soon asked about the mission, which quickly calmed them down. They looked at him with confusion and asked, "Political Commissar Li, these division commanders should have reported to you, right?"
"I have indeed reported it, but I want to know more details, so I came to ask you."
Although this explanation was a bit far-fetched, Chen Cheng and others didn't say anything else and just recounted what had happened.
Political Commissar Li wanted to know whether the details were false or not, and whether Liu Heihu was really hidden there. This was because Chen Cheng and the others were all brought here by Si Nanzhao from his original unit.
He felt that these were Si Nanzhao's most trusted subordinates and he would not hide anything from them.
But the result disappointed him greatly. He didn't expect that they had no idea where Liu Heihu was hidden because they came back early.
Hearing this, Political Commissar Li was very disappointed, but he did not forget to sow discord between the few people and Si Nanzhao.
He said with a look of indignation on his face, "How could Commander Si do this? He brought you from his old unit. How could he hide such an important matter from you? He doesn't even consider you brothers."
After hearing this, Chen Cheng and the others' expressions instantly turned bad. It wasn't because of what Political Commissar Li said, but because of his purpose.
They were not stupid, so they naturally understood the real purpose of Li Zhengwei calling them here. It was not because they wanted to know the details, but just wanted to know where Liu Heihu was hiding.
Fortunately, they didn't know, otherwise he would have pressured them with his leadership and ordered them to speak out, and they would have had no choice but to speak out.
Li Zhigang saw the unhappy expressions on their faces and felt a little proud. Didn't Si Nanzhao have a trick up his sleeve? Then he would sow discord between him and his men.
He knew that any relationship could not withstand suspicion and provocation. It might not be obvious at first, but it would definitely cause problems over time. It would be fun if these people betrayed Si Nanzhao at the same time.
Unable to get any information out of them, Li Zhigang had no choice but to let them go.
After leaving the office building, Chen Cheng and his companions still looked unhappy.
"Should we talk to the regiment commander about this? I think Political Commissar Li has some ill intentions."
"It's more than just ill intentions. I even suspect he has some connection with the bandits. Otherwise, why would he be so concerned about where Liu Heihu is being held?"
"His motives are indeed suspicious. We need to tell the captain and ask him to be careful and not fall into his trap."
"Political Commissar Li is a bit abominable. He even tried to sow discord between us and the regiment commander. Fortunately, we are not the kind of people who can't figure it out. Otherwise, we would really think that the regiment commander doesn't trust us by not letting us know where Liu Heihu is imprisoned."
"I think the commander must have known something like this would happen, that's why he didn't tell us. In this situation just now, if we really knew where Liu Heihu was being held, we would definitely tell him. After all, a higher-ranking official can crush someone."
"The leader is indeed foresighted."
As they talked, they returned to their company.
Si Nanzhao didn't know that Li Zhigang wanted to get news about Liu Heihu from Chen Cheng and others. After leaving Li Zhigang, he went straight back to the family compound.
When he returned, Yunbei had already prepared dinner and was waiting for him to eat.
After the two of them finished their meal, they locked the gate and entered the space. For Si Nanzhao, nothing was more important than interrogating Liu Heihu.
Liu Heihu in the space was still dizzy, so Yunbei brought him some food when he went in.
When Liu Heihu woke up and saw Si Nanzhao and Yun Bei, he couldn't help but ask, "Where is this? What do you want to do to me?"
"Liu Heihu, you are a smart man. I hope you will answer my questions honestly. Don't try to trick me, or I will not be polite to you."
"I'm hungry. Can I eat something first?" Liu Heihu smelled the fragrance of the food and immediately set his eyes on Yunbei's hands.
"You can eat if you want, but you have to answer my questions first."
Liu Heihu looked at the food in Yunbei's hand, swallowed his saliva, and said, "Let me eat first, otherwise I won't say a word."
"In that case, you don't have to eat this meal. Wife, take the food away."
After hearing this, Yunbei took the food out.
Liu Heihu hadn't expected Si Nanzhao to act like this. His eyes widened as he said, "You're going too far! Not only did you not let me eat, you didn't even let me smell the food."
"Stop talking nonsense. Now I ask you questions. If you answer well, you will have food to eat. If you answer badly, you will starve to death."
Liu Heihu was so angry that his face turned red after hearing this. He wanted to resist, but his hands and feet were tied, so he couldn't resist even if he wanted to.
Finally, he had no choice but to compromise and said, "Go ahead and ask. But let's agree in advance that you have to give me food after you ask."
"Okay, as long as you don't try to be clever, you'll definitely have food to eat."
When Si Nanzhao began to interrogate Liu Heihu, Yunbei came in again with a pen and paper in her hand. She knew what Si Nanzhao was going to ask, so she prepared to write it down.
Liu Heihu was initially happy to see Yunbei coming in, but when he realized Yunbei wasn't bringing food, his face immediately fell.
