Chapter 940 Action ([Yuelishao] Alliance Leader’s Update 24)
Zilaihuoxing Street is divided into east and west streets.
To the west is Xijilaihuoxing Street.
To the east is Dongjilaihuoxing Street.
Traditionally, Chinese people use fire knives, flints, and stones to make fire, which takes a long time. The word "match" can be ignited by rubbing it, so it is called "tap fire", and because it is a foreign thing, it is also called "match fire".
However, there are no tap fires in East-West Tap Fire Street. The reason why it is called this is because there is a French merchant gas plant nearby. Compared with match fire, gas is even more amazing as "tap fire".
Xi Laihuoxing Street.
No. 5, Kangyeli.
There is a map on a long desk, as well as pencils, compasses, wooden rulers and other items.
A pile of parts on the map.
Cheng Qianfan is wearing a suit and leather shoes, and his hat is placed on the side of the desk.
His eyes were focused and serious.
His hands moved, and he saw dizzying movements of his left and right hands. In this way, the pile of parts was assembled into a Mauser pistol in the blink of an eye.
Cheng Qianfan frowned slightly. He was a little dissatisfied. This was one second slower than his optimal state.
Don't underestimate this second, it means that his body is not in the best condition now.
Li Hao stood by the window, staring outside with vigilance.
“Brother Fan, Hao Zai and Tao Zi are back.”
“Hmm.” Cheng Qianfan nodded slightly.
Soon, there was a knock on the door.
Li Hao opened the door after confirming again that the people coming were Hao Zai and Tao Zi.
咣.
The sound is not loud and slightly muffled.
Cheng Qianfan placed the Mauser pistol on the desk and stared at the map.
After preliminary analysis and investigation, Cheng Qianfan targeted several lanes in West Jilaihuoxing Street.
Yongpingli.
Ruikangli.
Hongqingli.
These three lanes were all built in recent years. They are all two-story brick and wood structures and were built in the 1930s.
“Brother Fan, your judgment is right.” Hao Zai said, “Xijilai Huoxing Street has seen some new faces in the past two days.”
Cheng Qianfan was very cautious and did not appear rashly on Xijilaihuoxing Street.
He judged that if Lu Xinge was really trapped in Xijilaihuoxing Street, he would have been monitored or even surrounded this time.
Although the Kangye Lane they are currently in belongs to Xijilaihuoxing Street, this place is at the junction of Xijilaihuoxing Street and Guizhou Street. It extends forward to a bayonet of the French Concession, which is not suitable. For Tibetans, it is not suitable for outside armed forces to cross the border and enter the French Concession to arrest them.
The most important thing is that Kangyeli No. 5 is a safe house for the Shanghai Special Situation Team.
This safe house was originally set up to monitor Sanbonjiro.
Before the fall of Shanghai, in order to facilitate activities in the French Concession, Sanbonjiro once established a base for the activities of the Super High School in Nishijiraihuoxing Street.
At that time, in order to conceal others' eyes and ears, Sanbonjiro also performed surveillance duties. He also set up a surveillance point not far from the secret stronghold to monitor Hushe.
Hushe is a hometown organization of merchants living in Shanghai from six cities in Huzhou (Wuxing, Changxing, Deqing, Anji, Wukang and Xiaofeng). It was established in the 13th year of the Republic of China.
The buildings where Hushe resides are spacious and crowded with people coming and going.
Before the fall of Shanghai, this place was extremely busy.
Many social groups often use Husheshe to hold various activities. Hushe actively supports all activities that raise funds for the Northeast Volunteer Army.
At that time, the Zhabei area of Shanghai was ravaged by Japanese artillery fire.
Zhabei was originally a place where silk factories were concentrated. There were many people from Huzhou working and living in Zhabei.
Together with the China Jisheng Association, Hushe opened a refugee shelter in the society, housed hundreds of refugees from the same hometown, provided free meals, and actively raised funds to assist the anti-Japanese fighters.
Before and after the fall of Shanghai, the refugee shelters in Hushe accommodated about 10,000 Lake refugees.
When the heat is not over, diseases are easily transmitted.
Hushe Shelter employs full-time administrators and health doctors, who prepare camphor brandy liquid as gifts to refugees. They are responsible for transferring seriously ill patients to the hospital and paying for the medicine.
Therefore, only fourteen people in the refugee shelter got sick and only four died, which was considered a temporary miracle.
After the fall of Shanghai, Hushe’s activities were greatly affected because of its support for the Anti-Japanese War.
Especially as the Japanese became increasingly tougher and the French made concessions, the members of the Lake Club felt a security threat.
Now, the once bustling Hushe community has cooled down, and only some people are still holding on.
Such a huge community building is actually empty in Shanghai where land is at a premium.
Haozi was very familiar with the terrain of the French Concession. He knew where there were paths and where people could avoid attention.
Enter from a small alley on Guizhou Road, then cross a path and turn into the community, and then go out through a small corner door in a hidden corner of the south side of the community that is temporarily uninhabited. This is the safe house in Kangyeli. It is so convenient Can avoid attention on the street.
This kind of path is probably only known to the beggars who live nearby and beg for food.
…
“There is a person who looks familiar.” Taozi said.
Cheng Qianfan looked at him.
Taozi is a person who cherishes words even more than he does, and is extremely cautious. If Taozi says someone looks familiar, it must mean that he knows someone.
“Cao Yu.” Taozi said, “Look at the image on the back.”
Cheng Qianfan frowned slightly.
Then he heard Taozi continue, "That man's left ear is half-eared."
Then you can be sure it’s Cao Yu!
Cheng Qianfan said in his heart.
He remembered what Haozi had reported to him before. This Cao Yu had been secretly helping No. 76 recently.
So, the enemy is the secret agent headquarters of No. 76?
Cheng Qianfan took out the cigarette from his pocket. He did not light it, but turned it around in his hand. He thought about it carefully.
No. 76.
No. 76.
He felt something move in his heart.
Fei Ming!
First officer, Dong Zhengguo!
Comrade Fei Ming died, and Cheng Qianfan was once worried that the enemy would dig deep into Comrade Fei Ming, affecting the organizational security.
but-
It is unclear whether the enemy is digging into Fei Ming's background and trying to target our party. However, the postman who was beaten to death by Fei Ming was a military traitor who was bribed by people from the Secret Service Headquarters. This shows that the Secret Service Headquarters has long been eyeing Shanghai Military Command. stand.
Postman Lao Xing’s upline or downline must have been controlled by the Japanese a long time ago.
If he were Li Cuiqun, what would he do?
Did you directly order the arrest of this person?
Or take a long-term approach to catch the big fish?
Cheng Qianfan frowned slightly, he was not sure.
Logically speaking, taking the long term to catch big fish is the most likely to yield greater results.
However, after Lao Xing died, the military commander must be shocked. It is difficult to say whether Lao Xing’s contact will be stripped by the military commander Shanghai Station. In this case, if we capture him earlier and interrogate him as soon as possible, we may seize the military commander Shanghai Station. 's tail.
Cheng Qianfan looked at Li Hao, "Jiang Mulezi said when did Lu Xingge return to Shanghai?"
Li Hao gave a date.
Cheng Qianfan was calculating silently in his mind. He put the cigarette he had been playing with into his mouth, and Hao Zai drew a match to help him light it.
Yes.
The time is somewhat right and the situation seems to be clearer.
The Secret Service Headquarters most likely planned to arrest Lao Xing’s contact, but accidentally discovered Lu Xingo’s traces through this person.
So, Lao Xing’s contact person is very likely to be Brother Lu’s cronies at Shanghai Station.
Everything is sorted out.
…
“How many bookstores are there on Xiji Laihuoxing Street?” Cheng Qianfan asked.
"There are two." Hao Zai said, "One is Yongping Bookstore located in Yongping Lane, and the other is Jiraiya Bookstore to the south."
He looked at Cheng Qianfan and said, "Brother Fan, because I was worried about being discovered by the enemies monitoring this place, we were not able to get close to conduct reconnaissance."
Cheng Qianfan looked at Qiao Chuntao.
“Jiraiya Bookstore.” Taozi thought for a moment and then said.
“Tell me the reason.” Cheng Qianfan nodded and said.
“The phone number of Yongpingli Bookstore should be normal.” Taozi said, “The phone number of Jiraiya Bookstore can’t be reached.”
“When did you go to make a phone call?” Hao Zai looked at Tao Zi with a surprised look on his face.
"We met a man in a hurry on the way here. Someone asked him. He said that his family had something urgent and he had to call the bookstore." Taozi said, "This person came from Jiraiya Bookstore, or he came from Jiraiya Bookstore." Laiya Bookstore doesn’t have a phone number, or Jiraiya Bookstore’s phone number can’t be reached.”
Cheng Qianfan nodded, he understood what Taozi meant.
Lu Xinge will inevitably choose a place that is convenient for making phone calls. This is why Lu Xinge chooses to live temporarily in a house near a bookstore: bookstores can usually make phone calls.
So-
Suppose Jiraiya Bookstore originally had a telephone, but now it can't be reached.
What does this mean?
It means that the secret service headquarters may have targeted Lu Xingo who lives near Jiraiya Bookstore. This is a precursor to preparations for action.
“Why don’t you cut off the phone numbers of both bookstores?” Li Hao asked.
Cheng Qianfan glanced at Taozi and motioned for Taozi to tell Li Hao the reason. He himself frowned and thought. The enemy was preparing to take action. Time was running out and he had to hurry up.
Taozi looked at Li Hao as if he were a fool, but Haozi reacted immediately. He waved his hand quickly, "I understand."
As he said that, Li Hao gave a wry smile, "Taozi, I just didn't expect that you don't need to look at me like this."
There are regulations in the French Concession that all telephones in a street cannot be reached, and the telegraph office will immediately notify the nearest patrol officer to investigate.
Although it is difficult to implement this rule in practice. Some streets have had telephone problems for several days, and the telegraph office will ignore them. However, if you encounter the dedicated telegraph office employees, it will be an 'unexpected situation'. '.
Cheng Qianfan glanced at Taozi, and he thought more deeply. He suspected that the Japanese were involved in this operation of the Secret Service Headquarters. He did not think that the people at the Secret Service Headquarters would think so carefully. Only the Japanese, these people took the French Concession into account. Every aspect has been studied thoroughly and will be strictly considered when taking action.
“Team leader, the Japanese are participating in the operation.” Taozi said to Cheng Qianfan.
“Not bad.” Cheng Qianfan nodded slightly towards Taozi and responded with a smile to show his praise.
Tao Zi’s outstanding performance, he is really happy.
“My order.” Cheng Qianfan said in a deep voice with a solemn expression.
Hao Zai, Qiao Chuntao, and Li Hao all stood at attention and listened to the order.
“Hao Zai, come with me.” Cheng Qianfan said.
"yes!"
“Taozi, is Wu Shunjia in place?” Cheng Qianfan looked at Taozi.
"It's right on Dong Jilaihuoxing Street." Taozi said, "I almost jumped up with joy when I heard there was action."
Everyone laughed. Wu Shunjia was extremely obsessed with making explosions. The Shanghai Special Intelligence Team had been dormant during this period. Wu Shunjia had no use for it and was probably depressed.
"Once the gunfire rings out, I have only one request." Cheng Qianfan said to Taozi, "Chaos! Let there be chaos!"
“Understood.” Taozi nodded.
“Haozi.” Cheng Qianfan looked at Li Hao, “Is the car ready?”
“Ready.” Li Hao said with a grin, “Brother Fan, the Xiangsheng Car Rental Company is nearby.”
“Rent a car…” Cheng Qianfan frowned slightly.
“Brother Fan, don’t worry, I’m using a coffee cart.” Hao Zai said.
The so-called coffee cart, coffee, brown, brown and black, means a car that is not visible in the light, or a car that is difficult to find.
Cheng Qianfan nodded. This coffee cart is also one of the ways for car rental companies to make money.
Zhen Xiangsheng, the owner of Xiangsheng Car Rental Company, is from Dinghai, Zhejiang Province. In the 33rd year of Emperor Guangxu's reign in the Qing Dynasty, he came to Shanghai to make a living at the age of 12. He first worked as a handyman in an expatriate's home, and later worked as a waiter in Licha Hotel.
During this period, Zhen Xiangsheng got to know some taxi shop owners and drivers and became familiar with the taxi business.
When he was twenty-four years old, he purchased a used Japanese car worth NT$900 on an installment payment basis from the British Central Motor Company, hired a driver, and started operating a taxi business. In less than two months, he was Pay off the car loan. Since then, the business has grown bigger and bigger.
This person is very good at doing business, and it is very convenient for tourists to take a taxi from Xiangsheng Automobile Company. Citizens can also learn about weather forecasts, train and boat schedules through the company's 40000 telephone switchboard, and can apply for train and boat tickets and have them delivered to their doorsteps.
Customers who take the bus in the middle of the night or early in the morning can ask the driver to wake up in advance and send the passengers off on time.
As for the ‘coffee cart’, it is naturally prepared by the car rental company for the convenience of shady friends.
The most important thing is that in the French Concession, out of certain needs, the patrol house basically turned a blind eye to the "coffee cart", just like the gambling stalls in the French Concession can exist safely.
“Action.” Cheng Qianfan raised his wrist to look at the time and said in a deep voice.
Taozi and Li Hao left first.
Cheng Qianfan carefully cleaned and inspected the room, put away the cigarette butts, and casually 'left' a few old cigarette butts that he had picked up. These cigarette butts had one thing in common, they were all low-quality cigarettes.
Hao Zai took out a prepared low-quality cigarette from his body, lit it, and smoked most of it after a few big puffs. This low-quality cigarette not only tasted choking, but also burned quickly.
Seeing Haozi throw the cigarette **** on the ground and about to step on it, Cheng Qianfan stopped him in time, picked it up, took a look, and handed it to Haozi, "Take another sip."
Hao Zai took another puff, and when he saw Brother Fan nodding, he threw away the cigarette **** and stepped on it with his foot.
“Do you know why?” Cheng Qianfan asked Hao Zai.
“I can’t bear to waste it.” Hao Zai said. He understood it just now when Brother Fan reminded him.
Hands out a box from the case, and Haozi opened it. Inside were two medium-sized rifles, some bullets, and two grenades.
“Where’s the light machine gun?” Cheng Qianfan asked.
“It’s put as planned.” Hao Zai said.
“Let’s get to work.” Cheng Qianfan nodded and rubbed his hands. Apart from the solemn look in his handsome eyes, there was a hint of excitement.
Hao Zai smiled. Brother Fan is a master of action, but because of his important status and safety considerations, he rarely needs Brother Fan to take action himself. This is a trick.
