The play combines elements such as spy war, emotion and suspense. The plot is tortuous and touching, attracting the audience with its tense and complicated storyline and tangled love story. During the Anti-Japanese War, the central defender under the rule of Ma Hongkui, the king of northwest Ningxia, could not tolerate the infiltration of various forces. As long as Japanese spies, traitors, the military government and underground gangs are found, they will be cleaned up without mercy. In this context, various forces still live in the middle of defense for the benefit of their respective camps and spare no effort to develop infiltration.
In the 1940s, people lived and worked in peace and contentment in Zhongwei County, Ningxia. However, the new public security bureau chief Ouyang Qing broke the calm here after taking office. He is a military spy, code-named "Desert Fox". In the name of suppressing traitors, arresting people everywhere is actually arresting the * * * party, which makes the whole Zhongwei County chicken fly a dog to jump, and there is no peace.
Ouyang Qing caught a peddler in Shapotou outside the city. Zhang Changben, a policeman, tortured the hawker in every way and found information from the hawker's dentures. The hawker confessed that the barber shop owner Shu is the party secretary of the central defender. However, Ouyang Qing, who caught the big fish of the * * * Party, was not satisfied. According to intelligence, he learned that the underground party organization in * * * had sent people to the barber shop to transfer a batch of important materials. In order to catch more * * * parties in the long queue, he set a trap in the barber shop and waited for him.
Ouyang Qing, who has been lurking in the barber shop for a long time, and other two special characters came. They all fell into the trap designed by Ouyang Qing and were put in the prison of the police station.
The two men, one is Ma Youlan, the county magistrate's own daughter. Ma Youlan has been studying in Chongqing, and this time he returned to his hometown with a special task and became a doctor in the hospital. The other is the adopted son of the county magistrate, Tong Sanquan, a silly son who has been away for many years. No one in Zhongwei County knows where Tong Sanquan went and what he did in these years. In fact, Tong Sanquan was the New Fourth Army in Jinzhong Anti-Japanese War Zone, and the underground party organization in Zhongwei was seriously damaged. Lao Qi, the political commissar of the Northwest Special Command, knew Tong Sanquan's special status-the adopted son of Ma Shoutian, the county magistrate of Zhongwei. Lao Qi asked the troops to let Tong Sanquan go back to Zhongwei to perform a secret mission. Does the little boy with reckless and impulsive personality and no underground work experience complete the latent task in triathlon?
The wheel of fate makes Ma Youlan, Tong Sanquan and Ouyang Qing, who shoulder a special mission, entangled in Shapotou.
The cunning and vicious Ouyang Qing watched the cavalry brigade of the soldier of fortune Hu fight against peace preservation corps, and used the relationship between Tong Sanquan and Hu's sworn brothers to find out the Japanese female spy Yoshiko and the traitor Li lurking in the central defender. He also used a honey trap to seduce Hu with the amorous feelings of the innkeeper, arrested Hu, killed his cronies Hu Hai and Gao Staff, took over the cavalry brigade, and took advantage of the fishermen.
After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, the traitor Li became the guest of Ouyang Qing, deputy commander of the suppression general and brigade commander of cavalry brigade. Ouyang Qing's power is in full swing, stepping up the destruction and cleaning up of domestic underground organizations. Commissioner Sun of Ningxia government presented the award to Zhongwei, and revealed to Ma Shoutian, the county magistrate that the producer of * * * should contact Chairman Ma of Ningxia, and the military system sent agents to infiltrate top secret information such as Ningxia, and told Ma Shoutian to keep an eye on both the producer of * * * and the military system agents.
Chairman Ma of Ningxia hates military spy most. Knowing that Ouyang Qing is military spy Ma Shoutian, he wants to play this card at the critical moment. However, in order to save her confidante Liu Hong, this card can't be played. To his surprise, Ma Youlan, a daughter who has always been clever and filial and worked as a doctor in a hospital, was also a military spy, which made it difficult for the wily Ma Shoutian to make a choice and watched Hongliu being persecuted to death.
Even more incredible is the county magistrate Ma Shoutian's family of three. Ma Shoutian belongs to Ma Hongkui, the king of northwest China. His adopted son Tong Sanquan is an underground party intelligence officer and his daughter is a military spy. And his confidante Liu Hong's identity is more complicated: his daughter Ma Youlan's biological mother, and a deeper identity is the party secretary of the central defender, code-named "Oasis".
Many plots of the play come from the real history of the Anti-Japanese War recorded in Zhongwei County Records. The relationship between the characters is complex, and the plot is ups and downs, which shows the blood of the northwest people and makes people excited. Vast expanse's desert natural landscape also firmly attracted the audience's attention and became a highlight of the play.
Liu Hong and Ma Youlan are a sad mother and daughter, which makes people feel sorry and moved. They are two different camps, and the wheel of fortune is a bit of a trick. Ma Youlan, who didn't know it was his mother, tortured * * * party member for his own beliefs and the cause of the party and the country without mercy, and was indifferent to being killed by Li. For the sake of national justice, Liu Hong can't recognize his daughter in front of her, let alone reveal a word of the underground party organization. Suffering from emotional torture silently, before she died in the torture room, she wanted to bring her daughter who was being interrogated closer, and took a good look at her daughter for the last time, but she failed to achieve it and finally died. The hidden front is so cruel.
