Chapter 110 Surveillance Traveler Intelligence

The county seat of Lin'an County. Fang's compound. Japanese Command. Front yard main house. Eiichi Nakagawa's office.

Nakagawa Eiichi saw that Kazui Ken hesitated and stopped talking, and knew that the stakes were high, so he said encouragingly:

"Hejiujun, don't have any worries, you can say whatever you think, and it doesn't matter if you're wrong."

"Hi. Captain, that's what I thought. This operation was very secret, the order was issued only a few hours before the departure, and no one went out from the preparation to the start of the troops, and there was no participation of the Imperial Allied Army and the detective team, so how could the Eighth Route Army know the operational plan of this operation so clearly? ”

"Yes. And Jiujun, do you have any clues for suspicion? ”

"Yes. I suspect that something is wrong with the intelligence officer, who betrayed and betrayed our imperial army. Again, again, it may be that someone within our army was bought by the Eighth Route Army and became a hidden spy. Please refer to the Wing Captain. ”

"Hmm. It makes sense, you can be so suspicious. ”

The second lieutenant of the Japanese army hurriedly walked into the office and walked up to Eiichi Nakagawa:

"Report to the captain of the wing, the special high school department came to report by phone, the telegram signal was intercepted just now, and the search and location are continuing."

Nakagawa Eiichi paused for a moment, stared fiercely at the second lieutenant and asked:

"Huh? Has it been seen before? ”

"Nope. This time it was a telegraph frequency that had never been seen before. ”

"Continue the search, locate as soon as possible, and carry out the arrest."

"Hey!" The second lieutenant turned and left the office.

Eiichi Nakagawa lowered his head and thought for a moment, then walked up to Ken Kazui and said:

"Hejiujun, go back and rest, write out the battle report and hand it over to me as soon as possible."

"Hey." Ken and Hikui staggered out of the office.

Another Japanese second lieutenant came in and reported: "Wing Commander, Cao Yong, the representative of the Eighth Route Army, asks to see you." ”

"Huh? What is he here for? ”

"I don't know, he has a resolute attitude, he has to see the co-captain."

"Take him to the reception room."

"Hey!" The second lieutenant turned and walked away quickly.

Nakagawa paced back and forth with his hands behind his back and thought for a moment, then walked out of the office and came to the West Room Reception Room, followed by Hirotomo Takagi. Nakagawa Eiichi saw Cao Yong and said politely:

"Director Cao, why do you have to see me in such a hurry? Please sit down and say"

Cao Yong stood up and asked, "Excuse me, why are you putting me under house arrest?" ”

"Didn't put you under house arrest? Director Cao, you misunderstood, how could my Imperial Japanese Army put the representatives of the Eighth Route Army under house arrest? Haven't we been entertaining you these days? If you still have any dissatisfaction or requests, just ask, I will do my best to meet you. ”

"Didn't put me under house arrest? Then why are there four soldiers guarding the door? Afraid I'll run away? ”

"No, no, not at all. Platoon Commander Cao, you know, this is a time of war, the situation is complicated and chaotic, in order to ensure your absolute safety, we specially arranged four soldiers to stand guard for you, which is completely respectful to you. ”

"For my safety? Joke. How can I not be safe in my own city? I don't need you to protect me. ”

"You can't say that. I know that you communists and the Kuomintang have deep grievances, and that the military commanders are cunning and murderous, and I am afraid that they will hurt you. ”

"Now that the Kuomintang and the Communist Party are cooperating to resist Japan, the military command will not harm me."

"I hope so. However, it is also necessary to prevent problems before they occur. ”

"So you didn't put me under house arrest? Am I free? ”

"Of course, of course."

"Okay, since I am not under house arrest, I am free, so can I go out for a walk?"

"What? You're going out? Where are you going? ”

"I want to walk around the county, can't I?"

"This? This? Yes, yes. Director Cao, are you just walking around the city? ”

"Yes. I still want to buy some daily necessities, can't I? ”

"Absolutely. Director Cao, how long are you going out? Will it be back? ”

"I can't say how long I'll be out, but I'll definitely come back and won't say goodbye."

"Good, good. Director Cao, I hope you are true to your word, and you won't, you won't, you won't ......"

"You want to say I'm going to run away, right? Doing so was like a deserter on the battlefield, and it was a shame for me. No, you'll see me back. ”

"No, no, no, you're mistaken, that's not what I meant at all. Director Cao, come back early, don't miss lunch. Go, go early and come back early. ”

Cao Yong turned around and left the reception room, returned to his room, tidied up his appearance in front of the dressing mirror, and put a gray military satchel on his left shoulder and right diagonally, and tied his belt.

In the reception room, Takagi Hirochi asked uneasily, "Captain, did you really let him out?" What if he doesn't come back? ”

"Let him out, I think he'll come back."

Cao Yong walked out of the Fang family compound and walked towards the bustling business district of the county with his head held high.

Nakagawa Eiichi walked out of the West, looked at Cao Yong's back and said to Takagi Hirochi:

"You have to follow Cao Yong inch by inch, and you will accompany him wherever he goes, and don't stop him. If possible, take him to the best restaurant for dinner, and I'll send Ono to you. Don't bring weapons, go ahead!

"Hey! Got it. Takagi Hirochi hurried after Cao Yong.

Eiichi Nakagawa walked back to the office quickly, picked up the phone and dialed, and said eagerly after connecting:

"Hello? Ono-kun? You immediately change into civilian clothes, take your camera to the street to find Takagi Hiroshi and Cao Yong, and be sure to take pictures of the two of them together, the more you can take. ”

Eiichi Nakagawa continued to call: "Oda-kun? You immediately drafted an article to the effect that the Communist Party and the Eighth Route Army sent Cao Yong to Lin'an County for friendly consultations with the Imperial Japanese Army, to seek cooperation, and to work together to build a Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere, and to strive to bring about an excellent situation of coexistence and co-prosperity between Japan and China at an early date. You then inform the newspaper to set aside the first page of tomorrow's paper. ”

Takagi Hiroshi caught up with Cao Yong and walked side by side with him on the street, and the pedestrians on the street watched with curiosity the strange sight of a Japanese officer and a soldier of the Eighth Route Army walking side by side on the bustling street. Cao Yong glanced at Takagi Hirotoshi, who was closely following him, in disgust, and observed his surroundings alertly. He walked down the street, his right hand in his jacket pocket, nodding and smiling at oncoming passers-by from time to time.

Cao Yong walked to a bookstore and stopped, and heard the storyteller in the bookstore talking about the Romance of the Three Kingdoms. Takagi stood beside Cao Yong proudly, looking at the onlookers around him rather proudly. Ono, who was wearing a suit, hurriedly walked from a distance, and when he saw Cao Yong and Takagi Hirochi standing side by side, he slowed down and quietly approached, and when he walked to the opposite side of Cao Yong, he squeezed out of the crowd and picked up the camera to point at Cao Yong and Takagi Hirochi lowered his head to adjust the aperture and distance. At this moment, Cao Yong took out a piece of paper from the lower right pocket of his jacket and opened it, held it in both hands and put it on his chest, and looked at Ono with a straight face and contempt. Ono clicked the shutter, then quickly and skillfully rolled the knob over and pressed the shutter again. When he raised his head with satisfaction and saw clearly the eight neat characters written on the white paper on Cao Yong's chest, "Resist the War to the End, Defend the Family and Defend the Country", his face was full of frustration.

The county seat of Lin'an County. The Japanese army was heavily guarded in the courtyard of the special high school. Ono Shaosa, the head of the special high school section, walked around the house irritably.

"Report." A Japanese lieutenant walked in: "I found that the new strange radio station just now seems to be in the city, and it is not far from here. ”

Ono: "Have you deciphered the contents of the telegram?" ”

Second Lieutenant: "The telegram was sent with a five-digit cipher, and it was triple encrypted. It can be determined that it is not the Morse code. Now we can't decipher it for the time being. ”
