Chapter 626: Arson
readx;?? At 11 o'clock at midnight on 7 June, Shanghai, which had been sweltering for days, blew four or five strong winds as predicted. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info "Eight" "Eight" "Reading" Book, .∞.o ◎ Feng Gensheng personally led the team to carry out the operation of destroying the newly built Shanghai Mint, Zhou Chengbin ordered Ji Gang to assist him, Zhang Zhan got the floor plan of the factory in advance, and ordered the new assistant Du Yifan to hand it over to Zhou Chengbin, and the seven agents who participated in the operation were already familiar with it.
Under the cover of night, Feng Gensheng took four agents to the back door and killed two sentinels, and the two agents dragged the body to a rented box truck parked more than 100 meters away. Feng Gensheng and four others flashed into the factory.
Inside the back door is the barracks of the guards, and across the wall is the target of the operation - the warehouse. The most dangerous place is often the safest, and none of the guards thought that the opponent would dare to enter from here, the captain and deputy captains all entered the dream, and the team leader on duty would have an hour before leading the team to change the guard. None of the ordinary sentries who had just formed a team could not figure out the specific time and number of other people patrolling, and Feng Gensheng and his party, who were dressed in uniforms that could be messed up, swaggered and made a patrol appearance and arrived at the door of the warehouse.
Two agents who were quite familiar with various locks took out the tools they carried with them to pick the lock, and Feng Gensheng took the other two to hold the front and back. Five or six minutes later, the door of a banknote printing warehouse was opened, and two other agents who were handling the corpses arrived pushing a food delivery truck from a pre-made mint canteen, and several men entered the warehouse, opened the thermos, and poured gasoline on it.
The agent in charge of picking the door of another warehouse did not go well, he was in a hurry, and he couldn't help but move a little louder, only to hear a loud bang, and the door was pried open, but it also alarmed the sentry on the mobile patrol.
The Mint's guards were specially drawn from the Nanjing Military Police Corps by Kagesa Zhenzhao, and they were well-trained, two of the four sentries were holding guns to cover behind, and the other two crossed forward, leaning in the direction from which the voice came, and asked, "Who?!" Who's over there? How many mobile patrols are you? ”
Feng Gensheng motioned to his subordinates to continue to act, and he came forward to delay the time: "It's me, how many groups are you from?" ”
There are six mobile patrol groups in the guards, and the three groups and four groups should be on duty at this time in the first half of the night. Could it be that someone is taking over? He had an idea and asked again, "Are you the old Cao of the fourth group?" ”
Feng Gensheng didn't know what to do, so he replied casually: "Yes, I'm Lao Cao......"
There is a team leader and four team members in the four groups, and none of them have the surname Cao! Lao Wei knew that the situation was not good! He ordered the subordinate next to him in a low voice: "Something happened, go and report to the captain, and immediately put the whole factory under martial law!" Hunt for unidentified enemies who have infiltrated them. ”
The guard took the order, Lao Wei wanted to drag the opponent, raised his voice and said, "I'm Lao Wei, I didn't find out the situation, right?" ”
Feng Gensheng impersonated a specific person, although he was covered by the rumors, he was afraid of being heard and flawed, so he didn't dare to speak anymore, but he was a little puzzled: Could his voice really be similar to what Lao Cao? Two groups of guards patrol itinerantly, is there a possibility that the routes will cross? He motioned for Ji Gang to speak, and Ji Gang said tentatively: "No." Team Leader Wei, is there any smoke? ”
Fireworks are strictly prohibited in the warehouse area. Lao Wei affirmed his judgment more and more: the comer is not good! He secretly observed: it seemed that there were only two people. Deciding to do it, he replied, "Yes, the wind is getting stronger, and I will go and take a break." As he spoke, he motioned for two of his subordinates to take cover, and he approached with one of his subordinates.
Feng Gensheng had already learned from Zhou Chengbin that the Mint's guards had strict military discipline and combat effectiveness that should not be underestimated. He motioned to Ji Gang to get ready for battle!
Seeing that Lao Wei was getting closer and closer, the gun in Feng Gensheng's hand spoke first, and Lao Wei fell to the ground in response! Almost at the same time, Ji Gang also knocked down another guard.
The four agents of the Shanghai branch who entered the warehouse acted at the same time, shooting at the printed paper and semi-finished products splashed with gasoline, and soon a fire broke out, and the warehouse was full of flammable materials, and the fire quickly spread out of control.
Feng Gensheng ordered to retreat according to the original plan! The sleeping guards could not organize effective resistance for a while, and Feng Gensheng and others in uniform were scattered among the busy opponents, and it was difficult to distinguish between the real and the fake. The guards blindly rushed in the direction of the burning warehouse, not noticing that the opponent was retreating in a completely different direction, and soon Feng Gensheng and the others retreated to the back door.
At this time, most of the soldiers of the guard left the barracks, and the presence of Feng Gensheng and the others seemed very abrupt. Captain Kang Rong looked at it fixedly, and he didn't know any of them! He dodged and commanded loudly, "Come on!" The enemy in uniform has infiltrated and surrounded them! ”
Feng Gensheng raised his hand to shoot! Kang Rongjun's hat was knocked away, and he didn't dare to show his head again with only three subordinates left around him.
Xiao Kong, who was pretending to be a sentry on duty at the back door, waited for two agents from the Shanghai branch to rush in, and Kang Rong ordered without checking: "The three of you cut off their retreat, and the two on duty, hold the back door, surround them here, and wait for others to come!" ”
Xiao Kong said "yes" loudly, but knocked down a sentry with one shot!
The three sentinels never expected that the two of their own people at the back door were also pretending to be opponents, and they were suddenly in chaos!
Feng Gensheng didn't dare to fight, and ordered a breakthrough!
Kang Rong saw his opponent rushing out of the back door, so he had to take the two remaining subordinates to risk chasing! After the broken hole was shot, the other two agents picked him up and evacuated, and Ji Gang took over to continue the broken back!
There were more and more guards in pursuit, and Ji Gang was also injured! Feng Gensheng calmly responded to the battle, ordered the agents around him to drive the van truck forty or fifty meters away to pick it up, and he took advantage of the cover of the night to hide behind a big tree on the side of the road, and looked at Kang Rong who was in pursuit, and fired two robberies, Kang Rong was shot and fell to the ground! One of the guards beside him was also hit by a stray bullet, and another guard was trying to rush to help, but was hit in the left leg by the injured Ji Gang and fell to the ground.
Feng Gensheng rushed over and hijacked Kang Rong and got into the rushing truck! The guards threw a trap, lost command again, and fired more than a dozen shots in a hurry, all of which hit the compartment of the van, and watched the van disappear into the night.
At one o'clock in the morning on June 8th, Kagezo Zhenzhao received a report: The Shanghai Mint, which had just been installed and commissioned, and was scheduled to open on the 9th, had a fire! He immediately ordered Ni Xin to lead the agents of No. 76 to the scene to investigate.
Ni Xin rushed to the scene, the most fierce place of the fire was the mint's warehouse full of flammable products, the wind of four or five levels has not stopped, the wind borrowed the fire, and it was impossible to get close at all. It was four o'clock before the fire was brought under control. It was only possible to start the investigation on the 76th.
At half past five, Zhao Changqing, who had been in Shanghai for less than a week, also arrived at the scene, saw Ni Xin and asked, "Is there anything to gain?" ”
Zhao Changqing and Ni Xin are both deputy directors appointed by Ying Zuo Zhenzhao, because of the meritorious service of guarding Yamashita Fengwen, Ni Xin's military rank is one level higher after being promoted, but Zhao Changqing has no respect for him at all, and he has not been able to get off the stage several times in front of Ying Zuo Zhenzhao.
Ni Xin was very disgusted with this person's style, and replied lightly: "You and I should have received orders at the same time after the fire, right?" How did you come? I've just started investigating, and I haven't found it yet. ”
"I went to see General Yingzuo first, and analyzed and discussed with the general, the investigation does not have to come to the scene, with Director Ni's ability, the on-site investigation can still be competent, of course, it can only be competent for on-site investigation. I know it's not realistic to come up with an investigation report now, but it's just an accident? Or sabotage? There should be a conclusion, right? ”
Ni Xin replied noncommittally: "Since you are here, let's investigate together." ”
Zhao Changqing also wanted to show his hand, so he nodded in agreement.
At nine o'clock, the fire was completely extinguished, Zhao Changqing carefully looked at the evidence collected by the No. 76 Technical Department, and said: "It is man-made destruction, Director Ni, I have three evidence......"
Ni Xin interrupted him: "Go back to the headquarters and report to General Yingzuo." As he spoke, he walked to the car. Zhao Changqing had to get into his own car.
In the Japanese Songhu Leading Headquarters, Zhao Changqing rushed to report first: "General, although I arrived at the scene more than three hours later than Director Ni, I have determined that it was sabotage for three reasons: the paper and wooden boxes that were splashed with gasoline, alcohol and other combustibles were found in the ashes that were not burned out at the scene; According to the guards on duty, there was a shootout after the fire, with casualties on both sides; The third reason was that the large iron gate of the warehouse was forcibly broken. ”
Kagesa replied, "It's expected, and it doesn't make much sense to figure it out. Ni Sang, tell me what you think. ”
"It was done by the Shanghai Branch of the Military Command, and only they have this kind of strength, and they can get an accurate schematic map of the factory in advance, don't forget that the workshops and warehouses of the factory are in place for only three days. Infiltrating, breaking down doors, and spilling combustibles, all while the guards were unconscious. Only they dared to stay at the scene after the fire broke out, obstruct the firefighting, and retreat until the fire spread. ”
Zhao Changqing was stunned. retorted: "That can't be determined to be the work of the Shanghai Branch of the Military Command." ”
"There is also conclusive evidence: the gasoline residues found at the site are the inventory of the crude oil depot in Pujiang County."
Zhao Changqing blurted out to defend himself: "I just came to Shanghai, this is not something I can know......"
Ni Xin interrupted him again: "What the general said is: it doesn't make much sense to figure this out. What I can't figure out is why the Shanghai Branch of the Military Command did this? ”
Why do you have such a question? The Songhu area was turned upside down by the Shanghai Branch of the Military Command, and making trouble was their goal! ”
"I beg to differ. Although the other side did not leave the wounded and corpses, according to the guards who witnessed the scene, at least three people were injured, and two of us were also killed, three were injured, one of them was seriously injured, and the captain of the guard, Kang Rong, was abducted and his whereabouts are unknown, which shows the fierceness of the gunfight for several minutes. Two more sentries had their throats cut. If I am a military commander, there are so many targets for the military and police in Songhu, why should I attack the mint that has not yet been put into production at any cost? At the very least, it is necessary to wait until it is put into production, and then launch an attack and snatch a batch of medium storage bonds. ”
Zhao Changqing also felt that what Ni Xin said was reasonable, but he still retorted: "Maybe the military commander just wants to give us a dismount." ”
"Dismount? It's not the law that gives it, is it? On the orders of General Kagesa, I have provided you with a "Briefing" of the operations of the military commanders in the previous six months, from which it can be seen that every attack by the military commanders was purposeful. Director Li Shiqun once said: To eliminate your opponent, you must first understand your opponent. ”
