Chapter 174 The Two Chens Leave



"Reporting, Battalion Commander, Battalion Commander Bai is here with his men."

"Alright, let's surround and trap the enemy."

Not long after, soldiers returning from other directions reported that the enemy had been captured.

"Battalion Commander Qian, take the captured men back with you. Our battalion will return the way we came."

"good"

After capturing the enemy, they prepared to descend the mountain. However, the path down the mountain was a bit more difficult than the path up the mountain, but it was not a problem for them or the soldiers.

Unbeknownst to me, my third brother was among those who went into the mountains to capture enemy soldiers. Shen Xi, who was nearby, saw me but didn't go over to acknowledge me. Deputy Battalion Commander Zhang Yong saw Shen Xi:

"Do you want to go and say goodbye to your sister?"

"No need, Deputy Battalion Commander. It's so late now, she should go back and rest."

Aren't you worried about her?

"Deputy Battalion Commander, there's nothing to worry about. This is deep in the mountains. As long as she wants to come in and doesn't do anything reckless, she can protect herself."

"How could that be? She's just a 15 or 16-year-old girl."

"But her skills are no less than anyone else's."

"How does it compare to you?"

"It's almost there, but it's just a matter of time."

"Is it really that amazing?"

"We were taught by the same person, don't you think?"

"Alright! But that makes sense too. How could she have discovered the enemy and known where they were hiding?"

It took an hour and a half to go up the mountain, but two hours to come down. However, upon receiving the notification at the foot of the mountain, Battalion Commander Cheng quickly issued an order:

"Closing the net"

"yes"

"Call the military region commander and successfully complete the mission."

"yes"

After descending the mountain, Battalion Commander Qian did not linger but led everyone away.

Uncle Zhou saw that he was standing there and said, "Go back! What happens next is no longer your concern; let the higher-ups take over."

"good"

"Go back and rest! We still have to participate in the autumn harvest after dawn, and you can't take leave for the harvest. Is that alright? Or should I go and talk to the brigade leader?"

"No need, Uncle Zhou."

Don't force yourself to be strong.

"knew"

As soon as it got light, I quickly got up, ate breakfast, and went to the brigade headquarters to follow the brigade leader's instructions. I happened to run into Chen Junjie, who asked, "How is Chen Enpeng? Is he alright?"

"It's alright, Grandpa Wang checked it, there's nothing wrong! The brigade leader has made arrangements, he can just go directly to the drying ground."

"That's good"

"Mianmian, you..."

"Are you wondering why the military personnel came over just because of a fight?"

"yes"

"Because one of these new educated youth is an enemy."

"How is that possible?"

"Nothing is impossible. I not only witnessed her contact with the enemy, but I also followed her up the mountain."

"So that means you deliberately provoked Bai Jiaming?"

"Yes! I just didn't expect Comrade Chen Enpeng to step forward and help. I should have told you if I had known."

"No, it's better if you don't tell them! It might cause problems later."

"Who is this person?"

"All we know for now is Liu Wenwen."

"What's wrong with her?"

You didn't expect that, did you?

"yes"

"I can't believe it! Otherwise, how could I have guessed it was her after seeing it with my own eyes?"

"So you really went into the mountains with them?"

"Yes! And not just once?"

"How could you be so brave? Besides, it's very dangerous in the mountains at night."

"With my abilities, as long as I don't do anything reckless, whether it's day or night, there won't be any problems."

"All right!"

About a week later, the new educated youth returned, but this time there were only three of them: Ruan Yuanyuan, Chen Xi, and Chen Mingqiao.

However, from then on, the three of us and the three of them kept to ourselves, and we rarely interacted or even communicated.

When there was something that needed to be communicated, it was Chen Enpeng and Li Mingqiao who handled it. This made me feel much more relaxed, at least from now on Ruan Yuanyuan would no longer come to bother me.

Even so, in a letter sent to the military compound after the autumn harvest, he still mentioned how Ruan Yuanyuan had insulted his parents.

Meanwhile, after the Beijing Military Region closed in and conducted an investigation, they concluded that the enemy had implicated over a hundred people because of Liu Wenwen, and from these hundreds of people, they discovered that there were no fewer than a thousand hidden enemies.

Ultimately, what we didn't expect was that in the following six months, nearly 10,000 people were arrested. It's safe to say this was the largest number of arrests of hidden enemies in recent years.

Not only were all the officials involved brought down, but a large amount of intelligence was also gathered, dealing a heavy blow to the enemy.

After arresting the suspects, the authorities in Tongshi were surprised by the magnitude of the problem. They learned from the suspects that heavy weapons left behind by the Japanese army were found in the mountains near the Gujiawaizi brigade.

They specially dispatched troops to search for the weapons and equipment hidden in a cave before winter, enough to equip an entire division. This greatly aroused the attention of the higher-ups, who realized the seriousness of the problem.

This immediately created a sense of pressure for the troops stationed there and in the surrounding area, who had been conducting mountain training exercises for several years. The training wasn't primarily for combat readiness, but rather to investigate whether there were any enemy weapons hidden deep in the mountains.

As for the Bai family, they never imagined that their child's act of hitting someone in the countryside would destroy the entire Bai family.

Moreover, some letters between the head of the Bai family and the Liu family in private were discovered, which could be said to have added to their crimes, leading to the downfall of the Bai family in Beijing.

Others might not have noticed anything about this, but the three people who went to the countryside with Liu Wenwen and Bai Jiaming never expected that two of them would disappear just because of a fight. They just couldn't understand it.

But Chen Xi wouldn't know what was going on if he hadn't been told! However, Ruan Yuanyuan and Li Mingqiao knew that the people who came to take them away that day were not police officers, but military personnel.

Ruan Yuanyuan never expected that Li Mianmian would dare to alarm the military just because she was beaten. From then on, she knew that Li Mianmian was not someone she could mess with.

Li Mingqiao thought that the army would never send so many people to a simple fight.

Since they've come, it means it's not just about fighting; there must be other reasons, though we don't know what they are. But the fact that they could send troops means they're not simple people, which means those three next door are not to be underestimated.

When Chen Enpeng learned the reason and consequences, he thought to himself that at least he hadn't been beaten for nothing, and he had even helped.

This matter was carried out in secret. The rewards given to myself and Chen Enpeng were not announced in a big way. Instead, Uncle Zhou delivered a certificate and some prizes.

Logically, such a great contribution should have warranted a commendation ceremony, but for the sake of his own safety and Chen Enpeng's safety, all such things were spared.
