In early 1939, the Japanese invaders occupied Guangdong and Guangxi, prompting the East River Column, which persisted in battle, to establish an urban action team. This team did not fight in high mountains or plains, but in the bizarre cityscapes. The members of the action team each possessed unique skills. Captain Qi Zhonglei, who came from a Japanese military school and excelled in various firearms, was nicknamed "Lieutenant"; then there was Mei Yanfang, from a wealthy family, skilled in lightness, hand grenades, and deadly throwing knives, nicknamed "A Cut of Plum"; also included was the loyal and simple yet formidable northern handsome guy Ma Zhenkui, nicknamed "Crippled Horse"; and Ma Zhenkui's sister, Ma Lanlan, who specialized in demolition and had a talent for handling various disobediences, nicknamed "Blue Phoenix"; alongside her was Lei Xiuzi, who was charming and skilled in information intelligence, nicknamed "Nine-Year-Old Red," and Liu Xianglin, who was silver-tongued and proficient in disguise for gathering information, nicknamed "Young Master Liu." This small group operated like ancient swordsmen, always slipping into the enemy's heart and delivering a heavy blow to the Japanese invaders. Since Captain Qi Zhonglei skillfully arranged the elimination of the leader of the Japanese Takoku's subordinate organization, the Black Dragon Society, Long Tianyi, it provoked the anger of the highest commander of the Japanese Takoku in South China, Takeuchi Eiyuu. He summoned his old subordinate, Beichen Xinzou, from Japan to launch a mad retaliation and extermination campaign against the East River Column's underground organization. The Japanese army's retaliatory actions led to severe consequences, and the action team countered, successfully eliminating Takeuchi Eiyuu. Subsequently, Beichen Xinzou succeeded Takeuchi and developed a deep vendetta against the action team. He engaged the guerrillas several times but ended in failure each time. To solidify their occupation in South China, the Japanese military decided to establish a bacteriological weapons factory in Guangzhou. Seizing the opportunity, the action team eliminated researchers from Unit 731 and destroyed new types of biological weapons. Not long after, high-ranking officials from the Nationalist government, including Ma Yuanshan, arrived in Hong Kong, and the action team successfully eliminated assassins sent by the Japanese army who were trailing him, ensuring Ma Yuanshan's safety. From Ma Yuanshan, they learned that Chinese scientists in the concession were developing a new type of weapon, but the blueprints had been stolen, and the scientists had been killed. According to reliable intelligence, the notorious Hong Kong thief "Thousand-Handed Guanyin” Lei Zhenshan had quietly returned to Hong Kong, and the theft of the blueprints could likely be attributed to him. However, Nine-Year-Old Red and Lei Zhenshan were not only master and disciple but also had a kinship. Lei Zhenshan told her that he was helping a friend retrieve something. The Lieutenant explained the mission to Nine-Year-Old Red, but she insisted that she wanted to reclaim the blueprints alone and asked everyone not to get involved. The Lieutenant secretly dispatched A Cut of Plum and Crippled Horse to follow her. Nine-Year-Old Red found Lei Zhenshan and obtained the box containing the blueprints, but then she turned around to find A Cut of Plum following her. Enraged, Nine-Year-Old Red accused the Lieutenant of distrust, but when she opened the box, it was empty. Furious, Nine-Year-Old Red confronted Lei Zhenshan and questioned him about the rule of their sect against murder during theft. Lei Zhenshan remained silent and left. Suddenly, Nine-Year-Old Red remembered Lei Zhenshan had told her he was stealing for a friend and recalled a person from his circle, the president of the Japanese Chamber of Commerce, Lu Bi Sheng, who had saved Lei Zhenshan's life. The Lieutenant and the others quickly rushed to Lu Bi Sheng's residence but found nothing. Just then, Lei Zhenshan appeared again, revealing his background; he had once been an intelligence operative for the British. After a failed operation, the British not only abandoned him but also sent assassins to eliminate him. Thus, Lei Zhenshan established a rule to never work for the authorities. Nine-Year-Old Red mentioned Lu Bi Sheng's identity, and Lei Zhenshan stated that he could distinguish right from wrong and explained that he did not kill the scientists. The Lieutenant ordered everyone to find Lu Bi Sheng and retrieve the blueprints. Nine-Year-Old Red successfully swapped Lu Bi Sheng's box, but while on the road, she unexpectedly bumped into Lei Zhenshan. He used his skills to steal the box, and a struggle ensued as Nine-Year-Old Red desperately tried to reclaim it. Ultimately, Lei Zhenshan managed to escape with the box. A Cut of Plum, monitoring Lu Bi Sheng, saw Lei Zhenshan enter the courtyard and attempted to kill him, but was stopped by the Lieutenant. Lu Bi Sheng rejoiced upon receiving the box. As Lei Zhenshan grabbed the box to leave, several bodyguards rushed in, revealing Lu Bi Sheng's true intentions. The Lieutenant hastily took aim at Lu Bi Sheng using a sniper rifle, but Lu Bi Sheng was blocked by a bodyguard. Inside the house, Lei Zhenshan informed Lu Bi Sheng that the blueprints in the box were fake. Lu Bi Sheng, in disbelief, opened the box, triggering an explosion. Upon returning to their residence, the Lieutenant and the others relayed everything Nine-Year-Old Red had witnessed. In an abandoned warehouse, Nine-Year-Old Red knelt in mourning under a table and suddenly discovered the blueprints hidden underneath, breaking down in tears... With the outbreak of the Pacific War, Beichen Xinzou prepared to annihilate the guerrillas in one fell swoop. The guerrilla fighters faced the fully armed Japanese troops, maneuvering and engaging in a battle of wits, ultimately eliminating Beichen Xinzou. After Hong Kong fell, they successfully retreated to the mountainous areas of northern Guangdong, continuing their fight on the frontlines of national salvation!
