Chapter 18 Let the wind enter Jining
"It's all less nonsense. Fu Erchong, Qin Junbao, after the two of you lead the troops to change their clothes, they will go to the vicinity of the Fukushima warehouse to hide and wait, and we will use it as a temporary base camp for the time being. Gu Dafeng, you pick a platoon to guard the south gate. I'll give you all the small artillery platoon and machine gun squad. You remember, the south gate is the last retreat of our Flying Tiger Battalion, and this retreat cannot be lost! You have to hold out for at least two days, and after two days, the 22nd Division of the then division commander will come up and your mission will be completed. Do you understand? ”
"Humble duty understands! As long as I live, Namdaemun is guaranteed not to be lost! Gu Dafeng saluted, his face flushed with excitement. He is not stupid, since Ren Laifeng has given him such an important task, he trusts him. No one will put cannon fodder in the most critical position! If he can defend the south gate this time, maybe he will be turned into a regular company commander when he returns!
Ren Laifeng didn't care what Gu Dafeng thought in his heart, hurriedly returned the salute, and quickly disappeared into Jining City in the dark night with the remaining two platoons of the first company.
Huang Tian returned to his post as a guard, and with him guiding the way, the troops went all the way unimpeded and came directly to the back door of the Fukushima warehouse. The back door key is still hanging in Huang Tian's waist, so he plugged the key into it and twisted it to the right, and it was opened! The shopkeeper didn't even change the door lock, isn't that too careless?
There was still no one in the back door, and the soldiers quickly entered the courtyard and locked the back door again. Ren Laifeng was not at ease, so he left the two of them here to watch this door to prevent enemies from sneaking in through the back door.
The area of the Fukushima warehouse is really large, and in the open space at the back door, Ren Laifeng with two rows of more than 60 people to this station is still more than loose, how big do you say this whole warehouse should be?
Walking forward from the back door, Huang Tian led the way to the tent where the shopkeeper frequented. I thought that the shopkeeper might check the accounts of the day in the account room after dinner, but when I went to the account room, there was no one! The shopkeeper isn't here. Hey, this warehouse shopkeeper doesn't stick to his job, and he dares to leave his post casually?
Since you're here, let's search it, and you may be able to see the details of this store from the accounts you come and go. Going deep into enemy-occupied areas, Ren Laifeng was a little more careful in everything he did.
However, something unexpected happened. I searched the entire ledger, but I couldn't find a single ledger. Not to mention the regular account books, even the account books that usually record the flow of water, and even the small pieces of paper that record the numbers have not been found! Is this the bookkeeper? It's not like it's an empty room. Even if the shopkeeper is not there, he can't even take the account books with him, right?
"Are you sure this is the bookkeeper?" Ren Laifeng looked at Huang Tian suspiciously. He didn't suspect that Huang Tian had any different intentions, he suspected that Huang Tian was wrong. After all, Huang Tian came for the first time last time, and there are so many rooms in the warehouse, it is not uncommon to remember a wrong room.
"It's definitely the bookkeeper!" Huang Tian's face turned red, making him anxious. The lad could not stand this suspicion, even if it was only for his memory! "More than once last time, I saw the shopkeeper sitting here, so I sat here and lay down here with a brush and wrote on the ledger. It's definitely the bookkeeper here! ”
"Accounts?" Ren Laifeng pondered for a moment and asked Huang Tian again: "Then did you see what words he wrote in the notebook?" ”
"What word? What words can there be? Bookkeeping. Huang Tian scratched his head, thought about it carefully, and spoke a little bottomlessly, "People are keeping accounts, how can I, an outsider, be embarrassed to lie on my stomach and look at it?" I didn't see, I didn't see what he wrote. ”
"Have you ever seen Mr. Bookkeeper in this store? Didn't see it either? It stands to reason that he can't even afford to hire a bookkeeper in such a big warehouse. So why does the shopkeeper have to work part-time as an accountant? What's this guy standing for? Fukushima Warehouse. The bookkeeping room of the Fukushima storekeeper, the Fukushima store? After saying the name of the warehouse three times in a short period of time, Ren Laifeng suddenly struck in his heart.
The name is so familiar! Fukushima, nuclear leakage? Isn't that a prefecture in Japan? Well, a warehouse opened in China uses the name of a prefecture in Japan, so do you still need to guess who the owner of this store is? No wonder the shopkeeper changes, no wonder the smoking gun will have an accident. Will he run headlong into a trap carefully laid by the Japanese?
Is it considered that this time I am also throwing myself into the net and breaking into the nest of the Japanese? If he comes, he will be safe, whether he is caught or nested, since he is here, he must grasp the initiative in the palm of his hand as much as possible! Ren Laifeng made up his mind and immediately gave orders to the troops, block all the portals to the outside world, search the warehouse, and take down all the suspicious people found! The process should be light, and it is strictly forbidden to make excessive noise.
With an order, the soldiers who followed Ren Laifeng into the warehouse immediately took action! All rooms, whether they are staff dormitories, leadership bedrooms, offices, and storage rooms, including warehouses, business halls, kitchens, thatched houses, bathhouses, gyms, and all rooms for any purpose are searched. Whoever finds someone will be taken down!
Can such a large warehouse be without people? The shopkeeper is not there, but the man, the foreman, and the steward are still there. These people were just about to go to bed, the door of the cold room was opened, and several heavily armed strangers rushed in from outside, do you say that the people in the room are afraid?
If you are bold, you will resist if you pick up what you have at hand. What tables, benches, pillows, slippers, is to catch what to take. The guys in the warehouse do loading and unloading work every day, and they have the strength to handle them, and they never suffer when they fight with outsiders. But against the militants of these professions, it seems a little powerless.
The militants swarmed up, and with a few simple and practical movements, they easily put the guy to the ground, and skillfully tied him with a rope and carried him outside. One, two, three, the twenty or so guys in the warehouse were all pushed into the yard with their hands tied behind their backs. The soldiers of the Flying Tiger Battalion watched coldly with knives and guns.
"Ahem, where did your shopkeeper go?" No one answered. Ren Laifeng felt a little cold, if only Qin Junbao was here, that guy was a person who could coax.
"Who knows what's going on? There is a reward for speaking out. Still no one spoke, Ren Laifeng decided to change the subject, "Which of you is the foreman?" Who is the maître d'être? Who is the squad leader and team leader? Please stand up. ”
This time there was movement, and after hesitating for half a minute, a few people finally came out of the crowd and stood in front of the crowd.
"Your Excellency, Your Excellency! It's me, I'm Xiao Song! You know me. The last time you came to the warehouse, I received you! ”
One of the several squad leaders suddenly became excited, shouting and shouting to rush this way, and the soldier went up and mouthed, "Shut up!" The chief has an order that loud noises are strictly prohibited? Anyone who violates the law will be dealt with by military law! Are you tired of being crooked? Don't want to live anymore? ”
