Chapter 333 Cold Winter, Warm Winter 9

Unexpectedly, Pan Kewei did not refuse. He replied readily: "Okay. A few days ago, a friend from the south brought me a letter, and they asked me to help bring Yuntu and other things in. Now with the amulet of Nokawa, I think our business is really going to flourish."

Li Qinglin knew that what Pan Kewei mentioned about the Southern friends are either from the Military Control Commission or from the warlords of Yunnan, Guizhou and Sichuan. Only they have a large amount of opium to be sold, and only they have the strength to transport opium produced in Yunnan to the Central Plains at such a long distance.

After the two of them finished their business, it was time for dinner. Although Li Qinglin's conditions were simple, there were a lot of things sent by the people recently. Bao Jiafa naturally took out his skills, and the lunch was prepared very richly.

The troops are now in the mountainous area, and of course the table is mainly based on mountain delicacies. All kinds of birds and beasts are naturally indispensable. All kinds of strange wild vegetables and fungi have also been on the dinner table. As the saying goes, "No wine can make a meal." With such a table of good dishes, how can there be no good wine? Li Qinglin asked Ding Goudan to bring it to the table was still the famous Henan wine Du Kang wine.

While eating, Pan Kewei sighed: "Brother Li, it really happened to the saying, "If you have a gun, you will be the king of grass." Seeing that you are living such a beautiful life, I am a little moved now. I wonder if I should also bring a team up."

Li Qinglin poured him a glass of wine and said with a smile: "Brother Pan, you don't know if you don't become a monk. Don't look at me, but my number of people are pointing at me for dinner. Just the food and salary of thousands of people every month is broken. Oh, by the way, is there any news in the war zone?"

Pan Kewei held a pheasant leg in his hand, shook his head while gnawing, "There is no news from them yet. I guess their attitude is very subtle, that is, they neither deny your existence nor affirm your existence."

Li Qinglin smiled and said, "Actually, there are some people who are making trouble here. They just want to swallow our military pay, but they are afraid that we will make trouble with each other again."

Speaking of the inside story of the military, Pan Kewei, as the military commander, naturally didn't speak much, so he picked up the wine glass and touched Li Qinglin for a while, and changed the topic: "Brother Li, you have judged that the Japanese will definitely come in the near future. Are your troops ready?"

Li Qinglin picked up the wine glass and drank the glass of wine, saying, "After learning from one's mistakes, we will not be as inadequate as we did last time."

At this moment, a burst of gunfire came from afar outside. Pan Ke was shocked and said, "Why are there gunfire? Could it be that the Japanese are here?"

Li Qinglin smiled and said, "When the Japanese come, someone will report it. This is Feng Zheng and the others are training and shooting on the training ground. The last battle exposed many problems. This time they specially recruited some soldiers with good marksmanship to form a sharp gun team. Now they have lunch. While it’s warmer at noon, they are training and shooting in the training ground."

"You still have sharpshooters? I want to see this." Pan Ke said excitedly to drink the wine in the glass.

Li Qinglin also drank all the wine in his glass and said, "They trained not many bullets, so let's eat faster, otherwise we will not look down on the fun."

After lunch in a hurry, Li Qinglin took Pan Kewei to the temporary training ground.

This temporary training ground is located on a flat ground at the foot of the mountain. Feng Zhengzheng and more than a dozen soldiers were doing shooting training there. Behind the target standing in the shooting range is the mountain. The bullets shot out will be absorbed by the mountain, just preventing the bullets from flying around and causing stray bullets to injure people.

During this period, Feng Zheng recruited soldiers everywhere to recruit young people with good marksmanship and specially selected soldiers with outstanding marksmanship internally. After a period of selection, he really formed a team of more than ten people. At noon today, taking advantage of the sun's temperature rising, he led these people to shoot live ammunition here.

When Pan Kewei and Li Qinglin arrived at the shooting range, these team members had completed the lying shooting training and were now shooting on kneeling.

As before, the targets of shooting were still filled with white gray iron barrels. However, in order to improve performance, the iron barrels of the sharpshooter team were placed in different positions and the size of the targets. The iron barrels were placed one hundred meters away and were much smaller in size.

Seeing that the leader came, Feng Zheng, who was leading the team, shouted: "Standing at the sight" the members of the sharp gun team immediately stood up and lined up in front of the two.

When everyone stood up, Feng Zheng shouted: "Salute". All of these people saluted Li Qinglin and Pan Kewei in unison.

Feng Zheng shouted: "After the ceremony, rest a little." Then he clenched his fists and ran to the two of them, stood attentively and saluted. After the ceremony, Feng Zheng reported to Li Qinglin: "Report to the commander, the 10th Squadron's Sharp Gun Team is conducting shooting training. Please give me a lecture."

Li Qinglin replied with a greeting and said, "Continue to train."

"Yes" Feng Zheng saluted again, and then took the soldiers back to the shooting position and continued fighting.

"Bang, bang, bang, bang..." The gunshots continued to sound, and white dust continued to emerge from the iron barrels a hundred meters away. Li Qinglin asked Pan Ke: "Brother Pan, are these people's shooting levels OK?"

Pan Kewei did not respond, but suddenly said, "Look at the fourth soldier counted from the right hand side, this person is very suspicious."

Li Qinglin looked at the soldier carefully and saw that the soldier was not tall, but black and strong, with smooth shooting movements and accurate shooting skills, but Li Qinglin did not find anything wrong with him.

Pan Kewei is an old spy. He would never say that someone is suspicious until there is certain evidence. Li Qinglin also found that Pan Kewei's hand was already placed on his waist, which was obviously an action of pulling a gun at any time. Seeing this, Li Qinglin immediately took it seriously and asked Ding Goudan, who was accompanying him, to immediately call Ma Chunchang and Gan Yuanbin.

Ma Chunchang and Gan Yuanbin are also one of the four young students specially recruited. Li Qifan is now in charge of intelligence work in Sangyu Town. Tang Yun is now working with Yan Boling, and only Ma Chunchang and Gan Yuanbin are left by Li Qinglin. Their current specific task is to do internal investigation and protection work. Li Qinglin is calling them now, asking them to follow Pan Kewei and learn experience.

While waiting for Ma Chunchang and the others, Li Qinglin asked Pan Kewei: "Brother Pan, I think this soldier has a very honest face and is no big difference from other soldiers. How did you see that this person is suspicious?"

Pan Kewei smiled and said, "Brother Li, it's really a science to look at people. This soldier is very old in shooting, which means he is definitely a veteran. When I saluted us just now, I found that his index finger was unconsciously pulling the trigger, which means he was still thinking of shooting. Another thing is that I saw a coldness in his eyes, which is a kind of hunter's look at prey. Human language can be concealed, and his movements can be deliberately changed, but his eyes are difficult to change. He never knew us, so why did he have murderous intentions to us?"

Seeing that Li Qinglin was thinking, Pan Kewei added again: "His index finger unconsciously made a shooting move, which is a natural reaction to his psychological activities, which is the so-called body language. This inadvertent shooting move is also very telling."

After a while, Ma Chunchang and Gan Yuanbin ran over panting. Li Qinglin and Pan Kewei took the two to a secluded place and ordered them to immediately investigate the origin and situation of the soldier. The two accepted the task and left quickly. Li Qinglin and Pan Kewei returned to the shack to discuss other matters.

Ma Chunchang and his two were indeed very efficient. Two hours later, they hurried back to report to Li Qinglin and Pan Ke. The content of the report was naturally the result of the investigation of this suspicious soldier.

The two learned from the side that the soldier claimed to be Peng Zhenfa, who was recruited by Feng Zheng from Sangyu Town a few days ago. There were two people walking with him at that time, both of whom were scattered soldiers of Shang Zhen troops who had fallen in the Battle of Zhanghe last year.

Feng Zheng posted recruitment notices everywhere this time, asking to recruit people with good marksmanship. The two scattered soldiers from the Shang Zhen army heard that the third brigade was recruiting soldiers, so they rushed to join the army. As for Peng Zhenfa, both of them said they met halfway. He claimed that he was a soldier who fell behind in the 87 Uprising. It turned out that the infantry company of Wu Chaohan fell behind because of his unwell during the march.

Peng Zhenfa didn't know if he was born to be unspeakable. He usually talked very little and loved to be alone. When people asked him, he usually answered "yes" or "no", but his marksmanship was indeed very good. For example, he basically did not miss the guns of a target of 100 meters. Therefore, Feng Zheng took a fancy to him at the first glance and transferred him into the sharp gun team at that time.

After listening to the introduction of Ma Chunchang and Gan Yuanbin, Pan Kewei smiled. After thinking for a while, Pan Kewei called Ma Chunchang and the others to his side, and then whispered a few times before letting them go.

Li Qinglin was standing a little farther away, and he didn't hear anything Pan Kewei said to the two of them.

Now it is a battle between spies against spies. The use of violence is not the key, but the key is the battle between the two. Li Qinglin became very interested and asked Pan Kewei: "Brother Pan, what other good ideas do you have? I will learn it well when I say it."

Pan Kewei laughed. He did not tell Li Qinglin his own method, but kept it a secret: "If you want to know the answer, then sleep less tonight. My method is actually very simple. After you watch the process, you will know what method I use."...
