His mission is to embed himself within the Kuomintang ranks as a spy, establishing a secret link for direct communication with the Communist party. Alongside numerous unrecognized heroes, Zhao Yunfei achieves remarkable feats as a clandestine agent. Prior to the Liaoshen campaign, he is tasked with intercepting confidential military information at Liao Yaoxiang's headquarters.
