Because of the Japanese prison policy, even daily necessities such as grain, salt, cotton and linen were included in the prohibited list. The more prohibited the items, the greater the benefits. As long as there are enough benefits, businessmen do not care about the risks.

Xiangyuan was the access to the mountain that restricted the entire eastern Shanxi region. But after all the main access routes fell into the hands of the Japanese, it was natural to find another way to get in and out of the country.

Therefore, places like Nanguan Town, which guard the mountains at lower altitudes, can only smuggle a small amount of items. This kind of thing itself cannot be completely eliminated, and this amount of smuggling is valuable to an individual, but this smuggling

For the army, quantity is just a small profit, so the Japanese will naturally not pay attention to it.

It can't be said that they don't pay attention to it, but they consciously ignore it. Just like Wang Zhengyi's smuggling, New City's garrison captain Ogawa Seiichi is aware of it, and he even receives benefits from it.

Things are rare and valuable. Even if these smuggled goods enter the areas controlled by the Eighth Route Army, they will not solve any real problems because of their scarcity. On the contrary, because of the inflated prices, they will be a blow to the already weak economic system of the Eighth Route Army.

Therefore, the Japs have always acquiesced in the existence of this kind of thing, but this is against the blockade policy. Naturally, it is impossible for the Japs officers to go into battle in person, as it would be too ugly.

And acquiescence does not mean legality. Once the direction of the wind changes, it is enough to send oneself to prison.

Just let those puppet army traitors do it. As long as they don't care about it, collect some filial money from time to time, and don't fall into any big trouble, nothing will happen.

Therefore, the security captains stationed in places like Nanguan Town were all princes and celebrities in front of the imperial army. Chen Chunlin did not expect that he would be hit by such a pie.

He is a close confidant of the puppet army commander Huang Haohai. According to Huang Haohai's wishes, he wants him to be the security captain of Nanguan Town.

Although this guard captain did not have as many troops as his previous battalion commander, he could not afford to have enough money and money. Everything was empty these days, and only real money was the most real thing, so he accepted this job very happily.

And expressing his loyalty to Huang Haohai and thanking him for his support will definitely have consequences. At this time, his footing is not stable, and Huang Haohai will decide whether he will stay or go, so he must hug Huang Haohai's thigh tightly to express his loyalty and determination. He cannot

It made him feel like he was distracted and had second thoughts.

Huang Haohai is quite satisfied with Chen Chunlin's success.

People's hearts are the most fickle. As his status changes, it's especially clear how loyal he can be to himself. Now he just wants him to know that he is his benefactor. Even if he becomes rich, don't forget that he will become his benefactor.

.

Taijun's checkpoints are ruthless. If you are caught, not only will your goods be confiscated, but your life may be lost, so those smugglers seeking huge profits have to go through checkpoints such as Nanguan, which are guarded by security forces.

And a place like Nanguan Town is absolutely rich. That dead guy Zhang Hongbao is the best example. Huang Haohai even wants to be the captain of the police in Nanguan Town.

He was willing, but Taijun would not agree to one of their dignified regiment leaders serving as the garrison captain of a town, so he could only settle for the next best thing and let Chen Chunlin, a confidant who was quite respectful to him, serve as the garrison captain of Nanguan Town.

.

Chen Chunlin, who got the job, happily sent off Taijun Uehara, Captain Huang and his party, and began to order his men to re-arrange their defenses.

Although they stayed behind on the grounds of preventing the Eighth Route Army from attacking Nanguan Town again, that was just an excuse.

The Eighth Route Army had no profit and couldn't afford to go early. Now Nanguan Town has been looted and has no oil and water. It is estimated that it has disappeared long ago. How could it be so stupid as to come back.

When Chen Chunlin saw the warehouse burned to ashes, his heart ached for no reason. Now that he was the head of Nanguan Town, all these things that should have been his own were burned down by these gangsters.

However, without this group of eight-robbers, he would not have been able to take over Nanguan Town. In a sense, he should be grateful to these eight-robbers. Now he is starting to pick up the bowl to eat and put down the bowl to curse.

But looking at the piles of charred ashes in the warehouse, Chen Chunlin still felt a throbbing pain in his heart. If you said you would kill Zhang Hongbao, you would kill him. If you robbed the supplies, you would rob him. Why did you have to burn down the warehouse?

It's too much of a waste.

Chen Chunlin ordered people to clean up and clean up quickly. If you don't see it, it will be quiet, otherwise you will be upset if you don't look at it.

Chen Chunlin ordered his subordinates to clean up quickly, otherwise they would not even have a place to rest at night. Fortunately, the Eighth Route Army only destroyed military camps, bunkers and other military facilities.

There is no harm to the people in the town, and they can also recruit local people to carry out emergency repairs.

Chen Chunlin is now focused on repairing and building his future home, and has not considered that the Eighth Route Army may leave and come back. In his understanding, Zhang Yunfei and the others should be chased all over the country by the princes.

It is easy to destroy but difficult to build. They worked until dark and were exhausted. However, they only packed up a small part of the items. However, at least they built a simple barracks and no longer had to sleep in the open.

Chen Chunlin was drinking boiled water and eating hard steamed buns. He was also the police captain of Nanguan Town. Zhang Hongbao was hugging him with delicacies, but he was just like a bird. He felt a little more desolate for no reason.

After feeling melancholy for a while, I felt a bit more ambitious. A guy like Zhang Hongbao could accumulate such a huge fortune in Nanguan in a short period of time.

My ability is much better than that short-lived ghost who only knows how to flatter others and has no skills. Since he can do it, I can't be worse than him no matter what...

The night was getting darker, and the puppet soldiers, who were very tired from their work, were sleeping deeply. They did not realize that there was only a group of eight soldiers, taking advantage of the cover of night, to quietly approach Nanguan Town.

"Old He, what's going on? The Japanese have abandoned Nanguan Town. Now they don't even have two flanks to guard?" Zhang Yunfei, who was already energetic after a good sleep, observed the defense situation of Nanguan Town.

Finally, he spoke to He Jingtang, who was beside him and was a little depressed.

The puppet army was very tired of repairing their old den, and he had to inventory the supplies and find a suitable hiding place to hide. The workload was also not light.

"Maybe they don't have enough troops left behind, so they can only concentrate their forces to defend the front." He Jingtang replied casually.

"Well, this is also possible." Zhang Yunfei nodded in agreement.

The bunkers on both sides of the fortifications had been demolished by them after the last war. Although there are still trench fortifications, the defensive capabilities are naturally much worse.

If there are sufficient troops in the town, they can be stationed on the two flanks of the hills. However, if the troops are insufficient, they have to be stationed in a scattered manner. Not only will it not increase the defense, it will also be easier to be defeated one by one.

And this is indeed the case. The puppet army commander Huang Haohai gave Chen Chunlin only one company of troops. The puppet army's company had already shrunk seriously, with only about a hundred people. It was naturally unrealistic to divide it into three places.

The reason why Huang Haohai only kept so few people was because he believed that Nanguan Town had just been attacked and the Eighth Route Army had escaped, so it was safe for the time being. He kept these people purely to occupy territory, and one company was enough.

Secondly, these soldiers were given to Chen Chunlin, which was equivalent to Liu Bei borrowing Jingzhou and never repaying it. This was left to Chen Chunlin to form the Nanguan Town garrison team.
