In 1939, the Japanese invasion of China entered a climax stage. Although the Japanese army achieved "magnificent" results in the frontal battlefield in North China, the guerrilla Eighth Route Army caused it a lot of trouble. In order to solve this problem, the Japanese army held a special meeting to break up the resistance of the Communist Party and the Eighth Route Army in central China through the infiltration of the Secret Service Section.
To this end, the Japanese army demanded that "spy personnel be infiltrated into communist organizations" and that the control of the communist army should be further strengthened. When the time was ripe, the Japanese army proposed a "war to suppress the communist security." Through more than several years of surveillance, the Japanese army believed that in order to completely eliminate public order in North China, it might not be possible to achieve the predetermined goal by force, so it turned its attention to the internal organization of the Eighth Route Army, especially the central organs. The spearhead of the conspiracy was directed at the former general headquarters of the Eighth Route Army led by General Peng.
With the full support of the Wang puppet regime, the Japanese Secret Service Section quickly gathered a team of secret agents to carry out targeted training according to the habits and characteristics of the Eighth Route Army.
As a result, for a long time, in the area of Matian and Tongyu, where the former headquarters of the Eighth Route Army was stationed, the activities of secret agents were quite rampant.

Some of the spies entered the militia, some used the jianghu langzhong as a cover, and the temple even became a stronghold for the secret service activities. In just a few months, the secret agents quickly established an underground secret agent intelligence network through bribery and threats. Agents attacked messengers, intercepted codebooks and confidential documents, stole guns and ammunition, and carried out poisoning assassinations, which caused panic for a time.
In order to eliminate the enemy secret agents lurking in the base areas, Yang Qiqing, director of the security department of the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army, led the hoeing and traitor brigade and the military and people stationed in the garrison to launch a tit-for-tat struggle with them; on the one hand, they grasped organizational construction, mobilized the masses to participate in prevention, and promptly blocked the infiltration of the secret agents.
On the other hand, Yang Qiqing sent special personnel to cooperate with local organizations to solve the case, a large number of secret agents were captured in one fell swoop, and the enemy intelligence organization was seriously hit...
But what was not expected was that after the liquidation of the secret agents, there were two murders in succession, Xu Guohua, the county magistrate of Xiangyuan County, was shot and killed, and Wang Xiaoshan, a guard of Peng Dehuai, committed suicide. This has caused the situation between the enemy and ourselves, which has improved, to fall to the bottom again.

< h1 class= "pgc-h-center-line" Data-track="3" > two mysterious gunshots, and the two fell one after another</h1>
With a "bang", a gunshot on the west side of the Xiangyuan County Government station broke through the silent sky, exploding like a firecracker, and then the sky returned to its former calm. A few pieces of pheasant feathers floated in the air and slowly landed on the ground. Among the feathers on the ground, there was a small hole in one of them, and the surrounding of the hole was burned black, which was a bullet hole.
Obviously, it wasn't the sound of firecrackers, it was the sound of gunfire!
After the gunshots rang out, a formally dressed man fell from his horse and fell into a pool of blood. The man, Xu Guohua, was the county magistrate of the anti-Japanese democratic government in Xiangyuan County, and there was a bullet hole in the back of his head that appeared to be a long-planned murder.
Moments later, the sound of cries and footsteps replaced the dead silence. There was a guard at the scene, Xu Guohua's personal guard, a soldier who did not change his color on the battlefield, and at this time he was already crying like a "tear man".

The footsteps came from a militia team in nanshan village, and the sound of gunfire disrupted their original plans, thinking that the Japanese army had come to do the mopping again, so they carried the gun to see what was going on, fortunately, it was not the Japanese army sweeping.
But the shooting of the county magistrate is also a difficult thing for the anti-Japanese team to accept.
The atmosphere at the scene was very dull, and the guard spoke first: "I went to the countryside with the county chief to inspect, and when I came here, the agent hiding in the woods shot at the county chief. Although he tried his best to rescue the county magistrate, he was unable to return to heaven.
The militiamen who heard this news were taken aback and immediately scattered, searching everywhere, trying to arrest the agents. The result was that there was nothing but a few feathers left at the scene.
The secret agent disappeared mysteriously, and the mystery left almost no trace.
The murder of the county magistrate has not yet been investigated, but another gunshot has been fired. The place where the gun was fired this time was somewhat special, it happened in the courtyard of Peng Dehuai, the former general station of the Eighth Route Army in Liaoxian County.

The gunshots were fired late at night, in the dead of night, and the gunshots spread far and wide, making them particularly harsh, and nearby villagers got up to check on the situation. But he didn't notice anything, so he went home and slept. At the same time as the gunshots rang out, one of Peng Dehuai's guards fell to the ground, and the ground was stained red with blood.
This man, Wang Xiaoshan, was one of Peng Dehuai's personal guards, and had a small hole in his head that was left by a bullet. When everyone saw this situation, the entire Eighth Route Army always entered a state of martial law, and the guard troops also quickly launched a search to find the murderer of Wang Xiaoshan, but the result was consistent with Xu Guohua's murder, and no traces were found.
What kind of agent was able to pass through the layers of guarded sentries without being detected, and then quietly break into the courtyard of the former headquarters of the Eighth Route Army, shoot and kill Wang Xiaoshan, and then retreat completely? The crowd was puzzled.
Xu Guohua was not found to have been killed, it was on the mountain, and the murderer was easy to hide, which is also reasonable, but in the courtyard of the former general headquarters of the Eighth Route Army, which was fortified layer by layer, this kind of thing actually happened. When discussing the facts of the case, the two cases were intentionally or unintentionally linked, and the modus operandi was similar, leaving no trace, most likely by the same group of agents.
People talked about it, and at this time Yang Qiqing rushed to the scene of the incident. At this time, Yang Qiqing was responsible for the security work of the former general and the work of the hoeing team. Before there was always such a big thing happening, Yang Qiqing naturally had to be responsible. After Yang Qiqing arrived at the scene without a word, he began to survey the house where Wang Xiaoshan lived and check the wounds on Wang Xiaoshan's body.
In the pool of blood, Yang Qiqing found a fragrant lotus bag that was pressed by the corpse, but this incense bag had been torn apart. There was a stack of clothes on Wang Xiaoshan's pillow, which had been neatly stacked. There are no more other clues. Then Yang Qiqing began to question Wang Xiaoshan's colleagues, and the final result was that Wang Xiaoshan did not kill him, but committed suicide, so there was no so-called secret agent killer who came and went without a trace in this case.
Yang Qiqing has sufficient evidence to make this judgment:
First, Wang Xiaoshan is not an important value target, Peng Dehuai, who lives in the same courtyard, is a higher value target, why would the "murderer" attack a guard instead of Peng Dehuai? This is questionable.
Second, judging from the wound on Wang Xiaoshan's forehead, there are traces of burns around the wound, and this scald can only be caused by the muzzle of the gun being shot on the top of the head. Wang Xiaoshan learned martial arts from a young age, even if he was placed in the army, he was also a martial artist, and after being selected as Peng Dehuai's guard, he went through strict selection and training, and he himself had the characteristics of alertness and prudence and quick response, and it was difficult for anyone to put a gun on his head at such a close distance.
Third, if Wang Xiaoshan had been assassinated while asleep, there would have been almost no possibility. In the cold winter of Shanxi, no one sleeps with the doors and windows open. In addition, the clothes on Wang Xiaoshan's pillow were neatly arranged, and there was no trace of being pressed, while Wang Xiaoshan's clothes were not taken off, and the wind and discipline buckles were all tied, which showed that Wang Xiaoshan was not in bed at that time, that is to say, he was not sleeping. These details can be covered up by coincidence, but there is one thing that cannot be hidden, if Wang Xiaoshan was shot by a bullet in his sleep, and there was no struggle in the head, then why did the body fall to the ground?

Therefore, whether Wang Xiaoshan was assassinated under normal conditions or in his sleep state, he could not stand up to scrutiny, so Wang Xiaoshan was the most likely to commit suicide.
<h1 class="pgc-h-center-line" data-track="82" > the sudden appearance of "beauty" Mei Fang</h1>
After Yang Qiqing deduced that Wang Xiaoshan committed suicide, it brought a new problem. Wang Xiaoshan is a selected guard, and his parents are also farmers, whether it is political quality or physical quality, they are very reliable.
On weekdays, he did not show any negative emotions with other guards, and even was very enthusiastic about helping his fellow villagers. Did such a guard make a mistake, why did he choose suicide?
The only evidence left at the scene is a fragrant lotus bag, and this incense bag was given to Wang Xiaoshan by the "beauty" Mei Fang, so Mei Fang may have a direct relationship with Wang Xiaoshan's death, so Yang Qiqing ordered on the spot to call Mei Fang to assist in the investigation.
During the interrogation, Mei Fang determined that Wang Xiaoshan committed suicide, which was consistent with yang Qiqing's answer. Mei Fang cried a handful of snot and tears, she said: "The reason why Wang Xiaoshan committed suicide was that he had a relationship with himself, and as a result, he was discovered and chose to commit suicide. ”

"Did you make that sachet?" Yang Qiqing asked.
"Yes, it was an engagement letter from me." Mei Fang was a little slurred.
"You're so good, why is your purse torn apart?" Yang Qiqing asked further.
"I don't know." Mei Fang looked a little flustered and hurriedly lowered her head.
"Well, you go back and think about it." Yang Qiqing's tone eased somewhat, "You can go." ”
In Shanxi, the incense bag is a promise gift, after the man and woman determine the relationship, one party will give the other party a fragrant lotus bag to determine the marriage contract, and the incense bag appeared at the scene of the incident, and the incense bag was torn apart, Yang Qiqing concluded that Wang Xiaoshan's suicide was related to this matter, and launched a secret investigation.
Under the layers of reasoning, Yang Qiqing found that the problem was not so simple, and the real reason was definitely the problem of internal personnel. In order not to hit the grass and snake, Yang Qiqing announced that this case was a suicide incident, so that everyone did not have to worry about it. In fact, Yang Qiqing is arranging a tianluodi net for fishing big fish, waiting for the big fish to fall into the net.
On the night of the incident, the former general of the Eighth Route Army was holding a party, and Wang Xiaoshan, a guard of Peng Lao, also came to participate. Because I came a little late, I could only sit in the back row against the corner. After a while, a "beauty" with a somewhat handsome appearance quietly followed and sat down next to Wang Xiaoshan, who was Mei Fang, and Wang Xiaoshan and Mei Fang often showed themselves as cousins and cousins. In addition, Mei Fang also has a special identity - Wang Xiaoshan's fiancée.
Since Wang Xiaoshan became the guard of Boss Peng, this "beauty" Mei Fang suddenly found Wang Xiaoshan, saying that she and Wang Xiaoshan were the fate of their parents. When Mei Fang herself came, she told Wang Xiaoshan that her home was occupied by the Japanese army, and she had come here to flee, on the other hand, it was also to realize the marriage contract she had once had, which made Wang Xiaoshan surprised and happy.
At the fraternity meeting, "Beauty" Mei Fang gave Wang Xiaoshan the incense bag prepared in advance to express her heart. In addition, he also returned the washed clothes to Wang Xiaoshan. Mei Fang whispered to Wang Xiaoshan, "Cousin, your clothes have all been washed, for you." Wang Xiaoshan sighed and said to Mei Fang, "Well, let's watch the drama first." ”
Although Wang Xiaoshan said this on his lips, but his eyes involuntarily looked at the "cousin", because this "beauty" really did not look like a girl who came out of the countryside, quite a bit of charm, the temperament between the hands and feet is completely different from the rural girl, Mei Fang's finger with the engagement gift, is a silver ring, Mei Fang said that Wang Xiaoshan's mother sent it, but this has not been confirmed.
Figure | Japanese female agent
In the 1920s, the warlords in Shanxi were at war, and under the rule of the warlords, it was like a purgatory on earth, so Wang Xiaoshan and his "fiancée" had never met. Because the family was not rich, Wang Xiaoshan left home early to join the army, and he could not contact his "fiancée". Only vaguely, Wang Xiaoshan seemed to remember what his parents had said about it, but he had no idea who the other party was. Mei Fang came to the rescue and could clearly explain the situation in his family, which made Wang Xiaoshan firmly believe that this was his "fiancée".
After coming to the army, mei fang, a "beauty", did not show abnormalities, often washing and shabu for the soldiers, sewing clothes and mending socks, and showing wang Xiaoshan's dual identity as "cousin" and "fiancée". The two identities close to Wang Xiaoshan and their industrious characteristics quickly helped Mei Fang win the trust of the soldiers, and the crowd slowly regarded her as their own.
After the fraternity party that night, Wang Xiaoshan and Mei Fang returned to Wang Xiaoshan's room together. In the middle of the night, after Mei Fang left the house, Wang Xiaoshan raised a gun and committed suicide, and Mei Fang was the last person to contact Wang Xiaoshan that night. Yang Qiqing immediately made a judgment that Wang Xiaoshan's death may be related to Mei Fang, and she became the number one suspect.
After Yang Qiqing announced that Wang Xiaoshan's suicide incident was "closed," news came from Xiangyuan County that Xu Guohua's assassination case had been solved, and Yang Qiqing was asked to go to the interrogation. Before leaving, Yang Qiqing arranged the task of secretly investigating Mei Fang, and little by little found out Mei Fang's true identity.
Figure | Yang Qiqing
Since Yang Qiqing had previously announced the "closure of the case", it was not easy to carry out a large-scale investigation at this time. Yang Qiqing had no choice but to send someone to talk to the people around him in the form of a chat, rather than a chat of a case-handling nature, saying that it was to avoid the recurrence of such incidents. This made the "beauty" Mei Fang let down her vigilance, but what Mei Fang did not know was that this time Yang Qiqing laid down the tianluo net, directly pointing at herself.
In the contact with Mei Fang, it was all general inquiries, and after talking, they left, and there were no hard and fast rules and requirements.
Mei Fang was very proud of this, believing that her actions were very decisive and clever, leaving no evidence or exposing anything.
Therefore, as usual, Mei Fang participated in the local anti-Japanese propaganda activities, washed and mended the clothes of the soldiers with the Women's Rescue Association, and secretly screened the next target.
<h1 class="pgc-h-center-line" data-track="83" > Meifang's east window incident, the identity was exposed</h1>
This trick really worked. After some time, Mei Fang thought she was safe and began to operate secretly again. When she was secretly meeting with her accomplices in a hotel, Yang Qiqing, the minister of security, ordered her to be arrested immediately, and Mei Fang was immediately arrested by the security guards who had ambushed her in advance.
The true identity of "beauty" Mei Fang was also exposed, she was originally the wife of a local Kuomintang official, and later shamelessly defected to the Japanese Kou, became a traitor, and became a Japanese spy.
The identity of Wang Xiaoshan's fiancée, which Mei Fang herself made up, was to gain Wang Xiaoshan's trust. The reason why she was able to understand Wang Xiaoshan's family situation so much was through the inquiry of other Japanese agents in advance.
At that time, after the agents found out about Wang Xiaoshan's family situation, they conveyed this information to Mei Fang, and finally Mei Fang told Wang Xiaoshan this information, thus fabricating an identity that she herself was Wang Xiaoshan's "fiancée", and then allowing her to carry out secret service activities.

After being arrested, Mei Fang denied everything, but in the face of a large number of facts, Mei Fang had to explain her secret service. Mei Fang and other agents were ordered to infiltrate the former headquarters of the Eighth Route Army in an attempt to assassinate Peng Dehuai. Mei Fang took advantage of this fabricated relationship to coerce Wang Xiaoshan to assassinate Peng Dehuai.
According to Mei Fang's account, after the end of the fraternity, Mei Fang suddenly mentioned that she was going to sit in Xiao Wang's room, and after the two of them were nong, Mei Fang peeled off the shells of several eggs she brought and sent them into Wang Xiaoshan's mouth. At that time, Wang Xiaoshan was in a state of excitement, and after eating the eggs, his body became hot, and Wang Xiaoshan became restless, as if he was drunk.
In these eggs, there are thin needle eyes, which Mei Fang injected into the egg. These drugs were specially developed by the Japanese secret service and cause hallucinations, thus achieving a hypnotic effect.
The drug began to attack, Wang Xiaoshan was in a trance, and his body was out of control. At this time, Mei Fang showed off her ultimate purpose. Mei Fang asked Wang Xiaoshan to assassinate Peng Dehuai. Although Wang Xiaoshan's body was out of control, his consciousness was still clear, and he couldn't believe that this former "cousin" and "fiancée" could be a poisonous snake.
Wang Xiaoshan could not accept such a request, accusing Mei Fang of being vicious and wanting to expose her. Mei Fang laughed coldly and threatened: "If you go to report, I will say that we have a relationship." ”
"What's the matter?" Haven't you helped me wash my clothes a few times and send a few eggs? Xiao Wang didn't think so. Mei Fang smiled shamelessly and said, "You and I have already exchanged love items, and I am sure that you have slept with me, and you can't wash it even if you jump into the Yellow River!" ”
Mei Fang pressed forward step by step and said to Wang Xiaoshan, "If you say I am a secret agent, then I will say that you are also a secret agent." Wang Xiaoshan was so angry for a while that he couldn't speak, and he pulled hard at the fragrant lotus bag sent by Mei Fang, trying to smash it, but the incense bag was too strong, and Wang Xiaoshan tore a hole and threw it on the ground.
At this time, there were people's speeches and footsteps outside, and Mei Fang decided to further increase the weight. He said, "You are just a guard, but you have to listen to me kill Peng Dehuai and go to our side to ensure that you want to be an official and an official, and you want to get rich and rich." Isn't that a hundred times stronger than you are now? ”
As soon as the words stopped, Mei Fang quickly walked out of the door. Before leaving the house, in order to avoid leaving evidence, Mei Fang also deliberately took away the eggs and egg shells left behind, thinking of going back to wait for wang Xiaoshan's good news.
However, the development of the story did not follow the script planned by Mei Fang.
At this time, Wang Xiaoshan's mood fluctuated greatly, his body was almost uncontrollable, and his anger was constantly rising. In order to avoid the body getting out of control and doing something out of place, Wang Xiaoshan grabbed the gun pinned to his waist, aimed the muzzle of the gun at his forehead, and the first gunshot was the second gunshot. Wang Xiaoshan passed away, and this is the whole truth of Wang Xiaoshan's death.
As a result, Mei Fang and other agents were all arrested and swept away by the Security Department of the Eighth Route Army Headquarters, Mei Fang was sentenced to execution, and the enemy's assassination plan against the former general of the Eighth Route Army was all bankrupt.
