Chapter 0535 - Poisoning Failed
Hanoi, in a humble teahouse, Feng Chen and Hua Yinghao drank tea, informed each other of the information they had in their hands, and exchanged opinions.
"Brother Hua, what do you mean by Wang Zhaoming? Stuck in Hanoi all the time, still not moving? According to Feng Chen's thoughts, Wang Jingwei should have left for Shanghai a long time ago.
"He is still hesitating whether he should take this step, after taking this step, he will be a sinner for the ages, and he will never turn back." Hua Yinghao said.
"I analyzed that the main reason was that after Wang Jingwei's Yandian was published, the situation changed unexpectedly, which hit him hard, so he became hesitant again." Feng Chen analyzed.
"That's right, after Wang Zhaoming's Yandian was published, Long Yun in Yunnan did not respond to him, and the warlords of Liangguang did not respond to him, and Japanese Prime Minister Konoe Fumima stepped down again, so it's no wonder that he didn't hesitate!" Hua Yinghao nodded approvingly.
"Gu Zhengding arrived in Hanoi again the day before yesterday and persuaded Wang Jingwei to turn back, I heard that Wang Jingwei refused, he did not agree to Lao Jiang's suggestion to let him go to Europe, Gu Zhengding left today, I am afraid this is Lao Jiang's last chance to give Wang Jingwei."
Feng Chen believed that in the matter of assassinating Wang Jingwei, Chiang Kai-shek was not only cautious, but also hesitant.
"I'm afraid that after Gu Zhengding returns to Chongqing, the assassination order will arrive later." Hua Yinghao said.
"Brother Hua, then do you think I will hand over this information in my hand to Chen Gongshu and them?" Feng Chen asked.
"Let's give it to them, whether the operation can succeed or not is their business, after you transfer the information to Chen Gongshu, you can also have an explanation from Dai Li." Hua Yinghao replied.
"Okay, I'll go to the Vietnamese embassy of the Nationalist Government in a moment and transfer the information I have to Chen Gongshu." During Feng Chen's time in Hanoi, he completely mastered Wang Jingwei's entry and exit rules and living habits.
When Feng Chen came to Hanoi from Hong Kong, the situation changed subtly.
The Japanese left Wang Jingwei in Hanoi.
But Feng Chen was not idle, he learned many details of Wang Jingwei's life through Ishikawa Masao, he thought that these details were very important for the assassination of Wang Jingwei, just to see that Chen Gongshu would use it.
Although Dai Li sent a large number of agents to Hanoi, these people did not make a move, and the strange thing is that the day before yesterday, Gu Zhengding secretly arrived in Hanoi and met with Wang Jingwei at No. 27 Gao Lang Street.
However, Wang Jingwei once again rejected Gu Zhengding's persuasion.
Feng Chen and Hua Yinghao's analysis was very correct, and this time Chiang Kai-shek made up his mind.
On the night of the meeting between Feng Chen and Hua Yinghao, Dai Li's sternly worded assassination order was issued to Chen Gongshu in Hanoi.
The next morning, the weather was clear and the air was fresh, and the palm trees on both sides of the road were gently swaying in the morning breeze.
On the road leading to Gao Lang Street, a young man on a bicycle came by, humming a little song all the way, looking back at the food boxes on the shelves behind the car from time to time.
This Linyin Avenue is a dedicated road leading to Gaolang Street, and there are few pedestrians in normal times.
Especially in the morning, the rich people who have just finished their nightlife are still sleeping, and there is no one on the road, which seems particularly quiet.
At this time, two vendors came over, one carrying a burden and the other carrying a bamboo basket.
When the young man on the bicycle met the two vendors, he was suddenly knocked down and fell heavily to the ground.
Before the young man could come to his senses, a shiny dagger was pressed against his waist.
"Don't shout, if you shout, I'll kill you!"
The two vendors dressed as killers brought by Chen Gongshu, two agents of the Military Command Operations Group, one is named Wang Luqiao and the other is Tang Yingjie.
The young man riding the bicycle is the delivery staff of the "Big Shanghai" pastry shop that delivers cakes to Wang Jingwei every day.
It turned out that Wang Jingwei's breakfast every day was milk, coffee and cake, and after coming to Hanoi, he was very unaccustomed to having no cake for the first few days.
Zeng Zhongming ordered a breakfast cake for Wang Jingwei at the "Big Shanghai" pastry shop not far from Gaolang Street.
The big Shanghai pastry shop was opened by a Shanghainese in Hanoi, and the dim sum chef and the guys in the shop were all Shanghainese, and their cakes were very authentic, and Wang Jingwei liked them very much after eating them once.
Since then, every morning, the delivery staff in the pastry shop has delivered Wang Jingwei fresh cakes that have just been baked and are still steaming.
This information, in fact, Feng Chen had already detected it a few days earlier, and it wasn't until last night that he revealed it to Chen Gongshu.
After Chen Gongshu got this information, after on-the-spot reconnaissance that night, he decided to send Wang Luqiao and Tang Yingjie to kidnap the cake delivery man halfway.
Before the action, Chen Gongshu and the others figured out the style of the custom-made Wang Jingwei cake, and ordered an identical cake in the "Great Shanghai" in advance, and Yu Lexing carried out technical processing to put a dose of colorless and odorless poison into the cake.
This piece of cake, which has been processed by Yu Lexing's technology, immediately becomes a highly toxic drug, and as long as a person's tongue licks it lightly, he will definitely die.
After Wang Luqiao and Tang Yingjie overturned the young man on a bicycle who delivered the cake, when Tang Yingjie used a dagger against the young man's waist, Wang Luqiao took the opportunity to open the food box, changed the cake, and then deliberately turned the young man's upper and lower pockets.
"Two good men, I'm just a guy in the cake shop, I don't have any money on me, you want money, I, I'll send it again, please, please don't hurt me." The young man thought that the two had been robbed, trembled all over, and stammered and pleaded.
"Boy, today we will leave you alive, what should you do, don't report the crime, don't tell anyone, otherwise I will kill you!"
Tang Yingjie threatened the young man in a low voice, and shook the dagger that flashed with cold light in front of his eyes, only then did he kick him in the ass and let him go.
"Don't dare, don't dare." The young man picked up the bicycle from the ground, wiped the sweat from his head, stepped into the car and rode towards No. 27 Gaolang Street.
It should also be Wang Jingwei's life.
This morning, he got up late, got up late, had a splitting headache and was depressed, and he only drank a glass of milk, and he never wanted to eat anything again.
The cake was kept there, and in the evening, when the cake was not very fresh, Wang Jingwei arranged for someone to throw it into the trash.
Wang Jingwei escaped this fate.
After the poisoning failed, Chen Gongshu telegraphed the results of the operation to Dai Li, who ordered Chen Gongshu to hurry up the assassination operation, change the location of the operation to Wang's apartment, and kill Wang Jingwei and Chen Bijun in bed.
As a result, the Hanoi Action Group moved nervously according to Dai Li's arrangement.
After Chen Gongshu discussed with Feng Chen, he sent Xu Jian and Chen Mo to secretly reconnoiter Wang Jingwei's residence and find out the specific location of Wang Jingwei's bedroom.
After two days of disguised investigation, Xu Jian and Chen Mo came back and drew a sketch of Wang Jingwei's bedroom.
Chen Gongshu's action team, according to the sketches drawn by Xu Jian, worked out a set of plans to assassinate Wang, which was sent to Hong Kong by telegram and was quickly approved by Dai Li.
Dai Li's immediate instructions should be carried out as soon as possible.
A week later, at midnight, the moon was dark and the wind was high.
It was quiet on Gaolang Street, and the people patrolling the police station couldn't stay tired for a long time, so they went back to the police station to sleep.
At Wang Jingwei's residence at No. 27 Gao Lang Street, the lights in the outer suite of the bedroom were still on, and under the lights, Wang Jingwei and his wife and Zeng Zhongming were discussing the matter of throwing themselves into Japan.
"After the collective resignation of the Konoe cabinet, the situation in Japan is unclear, we are now trapped in Hanoi, in a dilemma, the people do not understand our state of mind at this time, scolding me Wang Zhaoming is a traitor, Lao Chiang came to force me again, asked me to go abroad, if the Japanese still do not express their position, I want to accept Chiang Kai-shek's suggestion, go to Europe first, watch the direction of the wind, and then make plans."
Wang Jingwei said with a sad face.
"I also think that we can't hang ourselves on this tree in Hanoi." Zeng Zhongming was next to him while lowering his head and sorting out the documents, and said at the same time.
"Zhao Ming, the change of Japanese prime minister is caused by contradictions in Japan, after the new prime minister Kiichiro Hiranuma came to power, although there have been some adjustments in the China policy, as long as we take a firm stand, continue to contact and negotiate with the Japanese, and show our attitude and sincerity, I think the Japanese will not abandon us and leave us alone."
Chen Bijun shook his head and raised objections.
