"The Gate of Truth" ll novella
The sea said slowly: "This church was built by foreigners on the surface, but in fact the founders are returned overseas Chinese. That is, the ancestor of Father Dawu, who changed his nationality when he was in the United States. The whole big family wanted to rely on him to have a place in the business world of Luqiao after returning from school, but who knew that the devil was coming. Their family was also a real local tyrant back then, and they took out the original family background from business to find connections to build this church. ”
As soon as the sea finished speaking, Father Daigo entered my mind. Indeed, his family was the largest of several priests back then, and only in Father Daigo's house could he sleep in a real bed.
"I heard from my grandparents that at the beginning, they just reported some wire newspapers, and then handed the news to the anti-Japanese elements. By the way, he used his position as a priest to help some Red Army soldiers cover up their identities and, if necessary, help the poor. In the war era, it is not easy to have such a solid harbor. The sea said.
"This is the history of the church?" I said.
"What do you think the army needed most during the war years?" said the sea.
"I need a lot, how many do you want me to say?" I said.
"The most important thing is to be able to say a few and say a few. The sea said.
"A lot of people, a lot of money, a lot of weapons?" I said.
"According to you, people are really the most important. But people also have weaknesses, and the four words "running out of food" are very appropriate. And we specifically receive material news, that is, ammunition and food. Otherwise, why do you think the devil will not be able to attack for a long time with so many supplies and engage in an eight-year war of resistance?" said the sea.
"Do you mean that the supplies that the devils have brought in to fight have been released by you as news? and then they began to loot the devils, so that they could not be attacked for a long time?" I said.
"All of this also depends on Dawu's parents, who studied radio when they studied abroad. Here the telegraph, and the methods and knowledge of the use. It was all taught to us by Dawu's grandfather slowly and little by little, so that we had five families. The sea said.
"That's the process?" I said.
"Don't interrupt it, the days go by day by day. My parents didn't know Japanese, but they quickly discovered something. The telegraph was invented by the Americans, and sending telegrams in Chinese and Japanese would have a lot of trouble. If you make a mistake in the encoding of a number conversion, it will be translated into a completely different meaning, and English is a language made up of letters, and misspelling a word will not affect the understanding of the original meaning. As a result, we know that the password is generally written in Japanese English. At first, I could only convert the numbers into English and repeat them again and again. Discover the approximate transliteration from which to discover the location and location of the material landing. It's funny to say that the devils invaded us and asked us for the terrain and our names. I didn't even change the names of the places and cities, so I took them and used them when they copied them. The fathers felt the approximate position of the line, and then let the anti-Japanese elements go to ambush. The number of successes is increasing, and the devils are beginning to take precautions. The sea said.
"And this kind of operation?" I said.
"The devils kept an eye on it, and the code gradually appeared. It was difficult for the fathers to decipher, but there was no substantial progress. As a result, the fathers came up with a more rancid idea, and the devil military sent a telegram that was accepted by the fathers. The fathers arranged the version and began to change the content one by one, and replaced it indiscriminately in a few paragraphs. The next time you accept it, a few hundred copies will be sent out at the same time to confuse the public. Anyway, I can't understand it, and I don't plan to let my bones understand it easily. The workload of the translation team on the devil's side has increased hundreds of times for no reason. finally touched the devil's bottom line, and the devil began to send people to investigate frantically. I want to find my fathers and catch them all. The sea said.
"Isn't it all a good thing to hear this? I said.
"At first, there were no bells in the windows, and that time my fathers almost wiped out. Fortunately, the two Red Army soldiers who took in them sacrificed themselves to be exposed and escaped, and chased after the devils all the way. gave the fathers the opportunity to run away with their equipment, and they escaped. This made the fathers realize that a church alone is not enough. There needs to be something to cover up, and some secrecy. The sea said.
"Are those bells?" I said.
"Yes, and then there were these wooden table covers and bells on the windows. In fact, there is a hidden groove next to the bed, and there is more than 20 meters of hemp rope in the hidden groove, which is enough to escape before the devil comes. The sea said.
"Where did you get these uniforms?" I said.
"My father's generation was getting bigger and bigger, but there were only two telegraphs. The two telegraph machines were obviously more important than the lives of their fathers, and half a month after that time, another devil team touched the attic. Of course, this time we were not alone, and the Red Army stationed three platoons in us. Seven devils were captured without casualties and hid in the attic. The sea said.
"That's how the uniforms and flags came about, but the devils disappeared from the church seven that day, won't they be found to have problems with the church?" I said.
"During the war years, it wasn't as rigorous as you think. Seven captives were locked in this small attic, which instead became our means of breaking through the telegraph. The sea said.
"The devil translates for us?" I said, puzzled.
"If I could, I would laugh. It was the devil who exposed the news, and it was said that the devils began to send telegrams in English. We can't read or understand what we translate, and we use many methods to no avail. Once, the fathers bought fifty syllables from a traitor at a high price, tried to translate them in order, and read them aloud with difficulty. The reading was a long telegram received in September 1941. Halfway through the reading, the fathers didn't know if they were right to translate like this. But the seven devils who heard us read aloud giggled like crazy, and some even hit their heads against the wall and pulled out the plug in their mouths, and they shouted like they were stupid and shouted Wansai ~ Wansai. The sea said.
"Hooray? what's going on?" I said.
"You still don't understand? The translated Japanese language makes the devil shout with pleasure. What does this mean? Judging from the performance of the devils at that time, it is obvious that they can understand what their fathers translated. Then it shows that the deciphering logic of the fathers is right, and the interpretation of the reading is Japanese. The fathers copied a copy and found a traitor to read it once. The traitor was dumbfounded and said what he meant. The sea said.
"What the hell are you talking about?" I said anxiously.
"Do you know what the date of December 1941 is in history?" said the sea.
"Don't sell it. I said anxiously.
"Historically, the devils attacked Pearl Harbor in December 1941, and the content of this telegram is a plan to prepare for the attack on Pearl Harbor. The sea said.
