Back in Shanghai, according to Zhou Chengbin's order, Chen Jinsong placed everyone else in the Baiwei Zhai vegetarian restaurant, and he also lived in Zhou Chengbin's Maosheng Fengxin cotton shop. Zhou Chengbin said: "Only the last of the five liaison stations you built can still be used, and now there are six soldiers of the third column who originally followed you. Except for you and me, only Ge Jiapeng and Tang Jitian know that the four of us are here before the transfer of medicines is completed. ”

Chen Jinsong nodded and said: "Although it is dangerous for the two of us to be together, there is no way to do it, today is the fifteenth, and the battle of Changsha is about to break out, and there is not much time left for us." Number Eighty-Six was injured and hospitalized, and even if he was not suspected, he could not be counted on. ”

Zhou Chengbin replied: "Zezhi has fulfilled his duty, and the rest depends on us." I am confident that I will be able to transport the medicines that my comrades-in-arms have exchanged for their lives out of Shanghai. ”

Chen Jinsong's heart suddenly felt relieved when he heard this, for several days, he always felt that there was nowhere to start, listening to Zhou Chengbin's words, it seemed that he had already made a calculation. Chen Jinsong asked, "So you have a preliminary plan?" Can you tell me about it? ”

Zhou Chengbin replied: "The Japanese and No. 76 must set up heavy guards to investigate, such a large batch of medicines, we transport them ourselves, it is nothing less than a fantasy, but there is one thing, the Japanese will not check." ”

The more Chen Jinsong listened, the more confused he became: "What is it?" ”

"From Dalian to Shanghai, it was transported to Wuhan, ready to drop the materials in the Battle of Changsha, such as soldiers, uniforms, munitions, and so on."

Chen Jinsong replied: "Dalian was occupied by the Japanese in the last years of the late Qing Dynasty, and in the third Battle of Changsha, the elites of both sides were exhausted, fighting to the death, and victory or defeat may be able to determine the direction of the future war. What do you mean...... However, as far as I know, there is no military organization in Dalian, and Boss Dai sent people to infiltrate Dalian several times, but they were quickly cracked. ”

"You're right, but don't forget that Changsha and Wuhan are not near the sea, and all the supplies that are transferred by sea by giant freighters need to be replaced by ships that can sail on inland rivers to the Yangtze River route to Wuhan, which is occupied by the Japanese, and from there it is transshipped to the Changsha front. And Shanghai, there is us. Zhou Chengbin's calm words were full of self-sacrificing spirit.

Chen Jinsong nodded and replied: "What you mean is to take advantage of the opportunity of the passenger ship to unload and load the goods, mix the medicines with the passenger ship bound for Wuhan, and when they arrive near Wuhan, they are raiding and looting." ”

"Raid and robbery, that's the matter of the bureau headquarters, what we have to do is to load the medicine people onto the freighter unknowingly, and then report the accurate information to the bureau headquarters. For this reason, I think Boss Dai borrowed someone. ”

"Borrowed someone, who ......" Chen Jinsong suddenly understood: "Are you talking about Ye Junyuan?" Healed of his injuries? It has also been more than four months since Lao Ye was injured in the explosion of the Kangci Pharmaceutical Factory at the end of June. ”

Zhou Chengbin sighed: "How easy is it to fully recover? It's just a reluctance to do business. "I remembered that Guo Xuan was also injured in the bombing case, so he had to come to Shanghai for treatment, but I didn't expect that the trip to Shanghai was actually a road of no return...... Zhou Chengbin was sad again.

Chen Jinsong saw his thoughts, and he didn't break it at the moment, and said: "Ye Junyuan made a move, we are a little more sure, tracing back to the source, it's all for the medicine, and Li Zhiyong...... What we have to do now is to transport this batch of medicines out under the noses of the Japanese and No. 76, and if the operation is successful, it will not only minimize the casualties of the soldiers who participated in the Battle of Changsha, but also comfort the souls of Li Zhiyong and others under Jiuquan. ”

The brothers have a tacit understanding in their hearts, how can Zhou Chengbin not hear the comfort in Chen Jinsong's words? He sighed secretly, and said: "Lao Ye arrived in Changshu tonight, Boss Dai sent us a group of people, come to Shanghai by water, one day later than Lao Ye, and arrive in Changshu tomorrow, I sent Yu Haochen to contact Du Yifan, the captain of the third detachment of the third column, and ordered him to gather manpower and stand by near Changshu." You go now, and let Lao Ye come over immediately. When the person sent by Boss Dai arrived, after getting in touch, he was on standby in Changshu. Jinsong, except for the No. 5 liaison station with less than ten people, these people and the new people sent from Chongqing are almost all the manpower we can participate in the drug transfer operation, and there is no room for error. Do you understand? ”

"Don't worry, I will lead the team to lurk safely, waiting for your order to attack. You're right, the liaison station is lost, and these people are one day late to Shanghai, and there is less danger. Then I went. ”

Zhou Chengbin called Tang Jitian again, dipped water on the table and wrote down two lines of numbers, and said: "Except for Yu Haochen's purchase of ships, most of our funds in the fourth quarter were spent on repairing cars for the No. 1 liaison station and that car dealership. It's too late to apply for funding now, this is the number and password of a safe in the Bund Zhengjin Bank, it's three o'clock in the afternoon, you go and take out the twenty gold bars inside for backup. ”

Tang Jitian memorized the number and password and replied, "I know, I didn't expect you to have such a large amount of emergency private money in your spare time. We have hidden those five cars very well, can we find them back and continue to use them? ”

Zhou Chengbin smiled bitterly: The military commander's salary is meager, where did he get his private money? This money is Liu Zezhi's personal savings, and he told himself his number and password half a year ago in case of emergency. Alas, when the operation is over, apply for the funds, and then return it to him.

Zhou Chengbin smiled bitterly and replied: "Those five cars will soon enter the sight of No. 76, no matter how reluctant you are, you can't ask for it." Go ahead, and don't forget to leave the contact mark of our military commander in the safe. ”

At eight o'clock in the evening of the 14th, in an old-fashioned inn in Changshu, Ye Junyuan and Chen Jinsong connected their heads. Chen Jinsong was very worried and asked, "Lao Ye, I heard that you used to be in good health?" How can I ...... now?"

Ye Junyuan said again: "Alas, this is all thanks to No. 76. Alas, what if you can't hold on? Ge Jiapeng, that stinky boy, is still a little immature. Fortunately, I do what I do, mainly with my brain. ”

Ge Jiapeng is too immature? Chen Jinsong was overjoyed in his heart, he had learned Ge Jiapeng's skills in fraud, could it be that this person was much higher than Ge Jiapeng's level? It should be, otherwise it would be impossible for the bureau headquarters to send the sick and crooked Ye Junyuan to Shanghai. Chen Jinsong said with a smile: "Ling Gao disciple Ge Jiapeng and I jointly carried out the golden cicada shelling plan, he forged the gold bricks into marble floor tiles, and later forged them into military steel ingots, which can almost be real, I am eye-opening." ”

Ye Junyuan smiled disapprovingly: "Deputy Stationmaster Chen is in love, gold bricks, floor tiles, steel ingots, these things are similar in appearance, and they are all hard materials, it is not difficult to disguise, the most difficult thing is to fake things that are completely different in material and appearance." ”

Chen Jinsong is a little unbelievable, is there really such a strange person in the world? Chen Jinsong said with a smile: "That's right, last time we carried out the fire theft plan together, but we didn't have a chance to meet, but I have been famous for you for a long time, and your name in the military command ......."

Ye Junyuan smiled: "Forget it, you can't have heard of me before." I guess the first time you knew about me was after you carried out the fire theft plan together, right? The military commander knows that there are only a dozen people like me, and you have never been in the bureau headquarters. I haven't heard of you before. ”

Chen Jinsong was very embarrassed, and said with a smile: "Casual greetings, see and laugh, what you said is good, we are not Guo Xuan, famous, I used to be undercover, and you don't see much light in what you do, so there are very few people who know us." ”

Ye Junyuan said again: "Lao Chen, let me ask you something. When I went to bid farewell to Boss Dai, I heard that Dai Ru, the captain of the third column, had died? ”

Chen Jinsong sighed: "Yes, there were more than forty soldiers who died with him, alas, the Shanghai station suffered heavy losses...... Do you know Dai Ru? ”

"Yes, Dai Ru is one of the few friends I have who are not related to the military command. There is no need to hide it from you, Dai Ru is the boss's little countryman, he has been with Boss Dai for four or five years before, and he is the boss's most appreciated guard, and when the news of his death came, I heard the people around the boss say, alas, the boss locked himself in the office, and he didn't say anything for seven or eight hours, let alone see anyone. Alas, Dai Ru's daughter is not yet three years old......" Ye Junyuan couldn't help choking up and kept silent.

Chen Jinsong didn't know how to comfort him, so he had to change the topic: "When I came, Stationmaster Zhou explained that after I got in touch with you, I told you to rush to Shanghai to meet him immediately, and I will tell you the address of your foothold in a while." I still have a task in Changshu, so I won't accompany you, your body is like this, take care of yourself. ”

At nine o'clock in the morning of the 15th, Ni Xin rushed back to No. 76, and met Quan Kanhu at the gate: "Director Ni, are you back?" I was ordered to investigate the car rental shop in Shanghai, and found that there was a rental shop that had just opened for more than a month, and suddenly people went to the empty building these days, and the car was gone, so the city police department assisted in checking it, this car rental shop has a total of five cars, license plate number, car condition, all found, I have ordered my men to track down these cars near Shanghai, especially in the Kunshan area, and now only one has been found, the strange thing is that this car is a special car assigned to the officers of the Chinese army major general and above before Songhu was captured by the imperial army, I don't know if I can find a few others, maybe I can follow the vine and have an unexpected harvest. ”

Ni Xin shook his head and said: "I estimate that the car can be found, but according to the car's plan to track down the military commanders, it will not be successful." Zhou Chengbin is a person, I know him more and more after several fights, this person has a sense of the overall situation, and will never lose his mind because of a little petty profit. It's okay, once you find the car, order your men to drive it back, which is also a trophy. That's right. How is Secretary Liu's injuries? ”

Quan Kanhu replied: "I heard Captain Zhao say that the injury was not light last night, and although he was out of danger, it was difficult to even speak. Director, don't worry about this matter yet, the death of Team Leader Yamaki, General Ono is angry, I heard that even Director Li touched the nail, are you ......"

Ni Xin sighed: "You mean to let me persuade you?" Alas, Yamaki-kun is the general's proud protégé, no wonder the general is emotional. But the public is public, the private is private, I go to persuade it, what's the matter? The general was angry for a moment, and the matter passed, and it was all right. Lao Quan, I really can't spare time, you go to see Secretary Liu for me, just say that I will go to see him when I have time. ”

Kwon Suga replied, "Yes, I also want to visit ...... hospital."

A man in his thirties in a black tunic stepped out of the car, saw Ni Xin, smiled, and stepped forward: "Ni Sang, it's been a long time." ”

Ni Xin was stunned, and the person who came was actually Katsuei Tanaka.
