Chapter 1081 You came up with a plan in the time it takes to eat a meal.
Asaka Shurei was quite frightened by these words.
She looked up at Commander Bai and said, "Commander, didn't you say that merits and demerits would cancel each other out? How can you go back on your word? This is not fair."
Commander Bai put his hands behind his back, glanced at Cha Xiang Xiuling, and then took out some candy from his pocket and handed it to her. He had asked his adjutant to buy it after he arrived, knowing that Cha Xiang Xiuling liked to eat it.
"We can't find the mole. All of the command's plans and actions are under the other side's control, so..."
"The commander wants us to catch the mole." Asaka Hideaki thought for a moment and then added, "Then, that's the part where our merits and demerits are balanced, right?"
Commander Bai smiled without saying a word, then snorted at Xiang Xiuling and stuffed the candy into her mouth.
Zhou Weiguo nodded; "Then I'll go find Fourth Brother."
Deng Yaoxian's office was located on the street opposite the war zone headquarters.
When he led Asaka Shurei inside, he saw Deng Yaoxian discussing something with Du Xun.
"Fourth Brother, it seems I've come at the wrong time." As soon as Zhou Weiguo spoke, Deng Yaoxian grunted and looked up. Upon seeing that it was Zhou Weiguo, he chuckled and said, "You've come at the perfect time."
After gesturing for Du Xun to make two cups of tea, Deng Yaoxian said, "Your operation this time has really caused me a lot of trouble."
By stirring up trouble, Zhou Weiguo's actions would immediately alert the spies hiding here, making them realize that he had likely been exposed. Even if he hadn't, it would have alerted the war zone command, making their subsequent actions much more cautious and making it unlikely that they would be able to capture him.
"Since you're all here, let's discuss this together." Deng Yaoxian looked at Asaka Xiuling; "Especially you, sister-in-law, you should participate actively. You're the smartest one among us."
"Fourth Brother, what you said makes me feel quite embarrassed." Xiang Xiuling nodded after fidgeting for a moment; "What you said is true, I am indeed the smartest, except for Eldest Sister, of course."
That's truly incomparable. I might offer more ideas, but in terms of overall control, I'm not as skilled. However, my elder sister can manage the whole situation. Even when the head of the family isn't around, the Independent Brigade won't cause any trouble, and the regimental commanders listen to her. But those other people won't listen to me, nor will they listen to Mingzi.
"Brother Zhou, we've already alerted her. It's probably impossible for her to take any action now," Du Xun said, standing to the side, somewhat dejected.
Zhou Weiguo had indeed not expected that they were already considering luring the enemy out. He frankly admitted his mistake: "I did not think this through. My original intention was to report to Commander Bai after taking back the position. I did not expect that he had already noticed this problem."
He genuinely didn't know; if he had, he wouldn't have waited.
The best time to attack is on the day of the switch. This would be difficult for others, but easy for him. He has the advantage in weapons and equipment, and no matter what the opponent thinks, they would never expect him to attack that very night.
"You're saying that once you know, you won't attack?" Deng Yaoxian had already seen through it. He laughed and leaned back on the sofa. "What ideas do you two have?"
Asaka Shurei touched her stomach; "I haven't eaten yet."
Deng Yaoxian glanced at her, then told Du Xun to prepare the food.
The weather is getting colder, so he prepared hot pot.
A steaming hot pot was served, and Deng Yaoxian opened a bottle of baijiu (Chinese liquor) and poured it for the two of them. "Come on, have a drink first."
After downing a glass of wine, Chao Xiangxiu took a couple of bites of food and asked, "Fourth Brother, have you found anyone you suspect?"
“Everyone is a suspect. There were quite a few people who attended the military conference, but we can’t say that they are him. It’s possible that they were people close to him, but after careful elimination, we felt that the possibility was not very high. Those people had followed them for many years.”
"Could it be a problem with the telecommunications department?"
According to Zhou Weiguo's recollection, one of the Ninth War Zone's operations was exposed by the communications department, causing a favorable attack to fail instantly and catching the Japanese army off guard, resulting in heavy losses. It seemed as if the Japanese army had broken through on that occasion.
This time, it seems there's been a problem over there again.
As the core institution of the theater command, the communications department was responsible for the transmission of messages throughout the theater. If something went wrong here, the Japanese army would be able to control its every move.
"What you've said has actually made me a little scared." Deng Yaoxian touched his forehead; he was frightened.
He couldn't estimate the consequences if the Japanese army infiltrated the core system of the war zone command with hundreds of thousands of troops, but one thing he was certain of was that if something went wrong, he would be a sinner.
"Why don't we just give it a try?" Asaka Shurei chuckled.
Want to give it a try?
How can I try it?
Zhou Weiguo and Deng Yaoxian both looked at Asaka Shurei.
"Sister-in-law, what do you mean by that? How can you possibly find out by testing?"
"It's simple. One way is to transmit the message by telegram, and another way is to listen on the radio. The troops at the front will be mobilized quickly according to this order. If there is a mole in the communications department, the Japanese will definitely take action. The other way is to discuss it directly and not transmit it by telegram. These two plans can be used as one plan. Now that my Independent Brigade has already succeeded in the attack, there is no need to hide anymore. Let my Independent Brigade act as the bait and lure him out."
Deng Yaoxian thought about it carefully, then understood what he meant. He nodded and said, "You're right, this matter can indeed be carried out. I'll do it now..."
"Fourth Brother, Fourth Brother, there's no rush. Let's eat first, and then we'll go find Commander Bai." What's the rush? Zhou Weiguo pulled him back.
After finishing their meal, the group, still smelling of alcohol, staggered over to Officer Bai's place.
Looking at these three men reeking of alcohol, he almost laughed in anger. A lieutenant general and two colonels, walking around the theater command headquarters reeking of alcohol, had truly made a huge loss of face. Those who knew them would think that these men were friends, but those who didn't would think that he, as their superior, was smuggling in personal agendas.
"Look at you all, what kind of behavior is this?" Commander Bai pointed at the three people, then ordered someone to prepare a hangover soup.
"Sir, I'm not drunk yet." Asaka Shurei's giggling smile made Commander Bai sigh. He then looked the three men up and down before asking, "So, what brings you here this time?" Had these three cunning people already come up with a plan in the time it takes to eat a meal?
