Chapter Fifty-Nine: Such Terrain
Half an hour later, at the Qinhuai River wharf, a small cargo ship rode the wind and waves, galloping on the sparkling Qinhuai River.
"Colleagues," Geng Chaozhong stood at the bow of the boat, looking around at the seven members of the sixth group, "I don't call you classmates anymore, because this time our action is to do a benevolent and righteous thing together, and do a great act of virtue together!"
Kong Delin confessed that in Dahekou Town, Zhenjiang, there was a Japanese-controlled Jishan Hall, which held many children imprisoned by the Japanese, and they used these children to coerce the children's parents to serve the Japanese activities in China.
Kong Delin is the victim of this bestiality! All three of his children are being held in this place called Jishan Tong, which is actually hell on earth!
We are going to destroy this den of devils and rescue the suffering compatriots trapped in it! ”
As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked.
Unexpectedly, Kong Delin was coerced! What is even more surprising is that the tentacles of the Japanese have stretched so deeply, and in the hinterland of China, near Nanjing, the national capital, there is such a demon cave that is so indignant and miserable!
Geng Chaozhong's face was sad, and he continued:
"Before I came, I had already investigated the relevant information, and there were similar Jishan Halls in Nanjing, Shanghai, and in various concessions, including those set up by the British, some by the Americans, and by various social elites and gentry. There are not a few such places set up by the Japanese.
Widows and lonely people, helping the old and helping the young, this is the original intention of Jishantang. I always thought that this kind of place should be the last fig leaf of a country and a society, but even this fig leaf is now full of filth! ”
Everyone's faces showed resentment and puzzlement, everyone clenched their fists, and some even put their hands in their pockets and held the handle of their guns tightly.
"Before we act, I need to remind everyone," Geng Chaozhong's tone became serious, "This Jishan Hall must be inextricably linked to the local forces, so this time we must not alarm anyone, let alone accidentally injure the children inside." Act fast, be secretive, and once you succeed, immediately transport all the children onto the freighter and transport them back to Nanjing overnight! ”
"What about shipping it back? There are so many children in this group that I am afraid that no nursery school in Nanjing can afford to eat. Wang Jianqiu spoke.
"If you can't eat it, you have to eat it, I have my own way to do this, you don't have to worry about it!" Geng Chaozhong glanced at Wang Jianqiu and said sternly.
Turning his head to look at everyone, Geng Chaozhong began to assign tasks:
"Alright, everyone get ready, now let's start grouping! Wang Jianqiu, Xu Qiu, Zheng Guoding, you are in a group of three, Wang Jianqiu is the captain, Xu Qiu is responsible for capturing and killing, and Zheng Guoding is covering!
In the second group, Yun Wei, Hao Kefu, Xie Yan, Yun Wei is the captain, Xie Yan is responsible for capturing and killing, and Hao Kefu is covering!
I'm in the middle! ”
Haokov opened his mouth, but did not open his mouth - of the three, he was indeed the weakest.
......
At sunset, the cargo ship anchored near the town of Dahekou, which is located at the junction of three estuaries and has a turbulent current, hence the name Dahekou. As far as the eye can see, the mountains are dense and lush, and they retain quite a primitive style.
Six groups of seven people divided into three groups and quietly infiltrated the town of Dahekou.
After a short period of reconnaissance, everyone gathered at a nearby ruined temple, and several people began to exchange the information they had gathered, but the expressions on everyone's faces were very grim.
This Jishan Hall, facing the river in the north, is next to two deep ditches, only a mountain road in the south can enter, ask the fisherman to inquire, this place used to be a camp of the Manchu Qingshui Army, after Xinhai, the river defense was withdrawn, and it was idle.
More than ten years ago, there was a You Fang Langzhong passing by this place and made a great wish to establish this Jishan Hall, which has a history of more than ten years.
Although the villagers had long been accustomed to it, Geng Chaozhong deduced at a glance that the so-called You Fang Langzhong was a Japanese Leshantang spy who had infiltrated China during the First Sino-Japanese Period!
Although the current Leshantang has declined, during the Manchu Qing Dynasty and the Beiyang period, this organization was based on the Leshantang Pharmacy as the background, under the name of You Fang Langzhong, and traveled all over China, and was the largest spy organization active in China at that time.
When Geng Chaozhong was in the island city, the first Japanese intelligence leader Ono Jiro who was killed was the general person in charge of Leshantang in Shandong.
"How can a charity be built in such a place? The local security corps are all children who grew up eating? Yun Wei was out of anger.
This terrain is a proper military location, even if you don't use it, you can't be occupied by others indiscriminately!
"There is no way, the Manchu Qing Dynasty has organized and trained a new army, millions of old-style troops have been disbanded on the spot, and there are countless dilapidated camps of the army and navy left, can't they all be demolished? My hometown of Hankou, there are more over there. Zheng Guoding, who had not spoken, spoke.
Although this person is also in the eighth period, because he is from Hankou, he has always been clumsy, and only occasionally says a few words.
"Yes, this place, surrounded by mountains on both sides, facing the river on one side, has both shapes and wins, if it is not a small place, this is Hangu Pass!" Guo Xiaoxian also frowned.
Everyone is from a military background, and this terrain is really one of the best camping places, and this so-called Jishan Hall is built here, which is simply a military fortress!
"I just looked, the road in the middle, there is a dilapidated camp gate, and there is a dog barking when passing by, it seems that there are ghosts in this Jishan Hall. Otherwise, it is to raise a few children, as for the precautions are so strict? Wang Jianqiu also said.
In fact, at the beginning, I heard Geng Chaozhong say that this Jishan Hall was a den of thieves, and I still didn't believe it a little, who knows if it was that Kong Delin who lied to play with them. But now that I have seen the ground, I can't believe it.
"Yes, just to see a few children, as for it?" Haokov was also speechless.
Geng Chaozhong shook his head, everyone has never seen the later Yang Electric Shock Treatment Internet Addiction School, and that place is not much different from a military location.
"There is only one way in between, how do you get there?" Xu Qiu was also worried.
"It's not impossible, it's already dark, and it's not impossible for us to swim from the river for a while, but the water has to be good, otherwise the night will be windy and rough, and I'm afraid it's not a small danger." Yun Wei said with a frown.
"No," Geng Chaozhong shook his head, "The water in this big estuary is not easy to swim, the three rivers are hedged, the whirlpools are dense, and if you are accidentally swept down, there are no bones left." I disagree. ”
He looked at this water when he came, although the waves were not very big, but if he looked closely, he could see that the whirlpools rolled down one by one, which was a typical bad water.
"No, this river is the legendary undercurrent, it doesn't look very urgent, but it's very dangerous. Otherwise, my family grew up by the river, and if I could walk from here, I would have mentioned it a long time ago. Zheng Guoding was also shaking his head.
For a moment, everyone lowered their heads, all at a loss.
Originally, I thought that it shouldn't be too difficult to just raid a Chai Shan Tang and rescue a group of children, but now that I look at it, this is simply attacking the camp! Not to mention the eight of them, even if there are eight more, they can't be attacked!
"Wait," Yun Wei raised her head suddenly, "This Jishantang can't usually stop interacting with people at all, right?" Where does their food and drink come from? ”
"The mountain people all grow their own vegetables, and the camp is so big, it is enough to raise a few more people. You thought that the Manchu Qingshui army was camped here, but you didn't expect this? Don't think the ancients are so stupid!"
Geng Chaozhong said angrily.
