108 The facts are clear
The drone has been observing the movements of the Japanese Army Command from the air, and it can be confirmed that Ma Qiang is somewhere in this huge barracks and has not left yet. However, the 419 listening group was no longer powerful, and never intercepted any more useful radio communications. However, the drone captured the picture of the communications soldier of the headquarters climbing on the roof to check the line, which exposed the location of the enemy's communication cable. The enemy's communications line ran directly along the ridge of the roof, so easily penetrating all the main rooms, and it appeared to be very safe.
Logically, a command of this scale, except for the places where the telegrams are received and received, must have a considerable scale of exchange system, and communication with the mainland is not through telegraphs, then only through communication cables, if the enemy thinks that it can be foolproof by telephone, of course, it is a big mistake. The main difficulty in eavesdropping on a phone is how to get close to the cable, but there is no problem of having to decipher the code.
Lin Xiuxuan wanted to find a suitable location for releasing the listening helicopter within 1 kilometer of the army headquarters, and Lu Qingshan directly recommended to him the crematorium on Baoxing Road. The last time he went in, he noticed that there were very few people there, and that there was a memorial tower for the ashes of the Japanese, which was quite high, with three floors, and windows, and there was no obstruction in the direction of Disway Road.
Lin Xiuxuan mobilized a drone to conduct a key investigation, and sure enough, around the Japanese Army Headquarters, this place was deserted, and there were basically no police around. The mourning tower in the crematorium is also very high, but it is slightly lower than the chimney of the incineration room.
Early the next morning, Lin boarded the bulk carrier on the slipway to check the progress, and Zhang Guangcai told him that he would be launched in two or three days, and that the oil tanker loaded with Soviet oil products was almost there. His interlocking plan, which is still running in an orderly manner, seems to be efficient and smooth, but in fact it is too compact and lacks redundancy in scheduling, which means that there must be a hidden crisis in the shadows. With 419's current situation, he can't fully control all the variables, so he can only resign himself to fate. He didn't know if there would be any problems with the Soviet tankers, but he could go to the Asia Oil Company tomorrow to find time.
In the afternoon, Lin Xiuxuan and Lu Qingshan rushed to Hongkou with their equipment. The two waited until it was getting dark, climbed over the wall and entered the "Faguang Co., Ltd. Incineration Field", and found the memorial tower to commemorate the memorial tablets of the Japanese soldiers who died in the invasion of China, the drone has confirmed that in the past 16 hours, only one cleaner has been here once, and he left after a hasty sweep, obviously a cold and safe place.
They quietly entered the mouth, only to see a large number of tablets and urns densely scattered around, these are the Japanese soldiers and local expatriates who have been killed in the previous war against China since 128 and have not been transported back, and it is hastily estimated that there are thousands of people enshrined here alone.
The two moved quietly, extremely carefully, and soon reached the top floor. Lin glanced at a low shrine in the center of the tablet dedicated to Yoshinori Shirakawa, a blood-laden war criminal who had been killed nine years ago by North Korean warriors in Hongkou Park, not far away. He touched the rank, there was not much dust, it was estimated that someone would come in to clean it in ten days and a half, he hoped that he would not bump into it, otherwise it would inevitably kill people and cause trouble.
The two found the window facing the Japanese headquarters in the northwest and began to prepare, not using lighting, but only working in the dark, and quickly completed the assembly of the equipment. First, the glass windows on the southeast side of the private headquarters were wiretapped with laser eavesdropping, but no useful information was obtained, most of the rooms were empty, and some of the rooms could hear the nonsense of one or two staff officers, which was of little value. For the time being, I can only sit back and wait for the night to get darker. The Japanese 13th Army Corps Headquarters was so heavily guarded that it had to wait until it could not move without seeing its fingers, and when this small helicopter flew at a low speed, it could control the noise below 25 decibels, and when flying over the enemy's head more than 10 meters, the guards with good ears might hear some very slight noises, but they certainly couldn't see it.
The wind began to blow outside, just in time for the crematorium to burn the corpses on the night shift, the choking smoke poured into the tower from all sides, it was the feeling of living hell, fortunately, the two of them were trained, and they both leaned down to avoid inhaling too much, and after a while, today's cremation index was probably completed, and the damn incineration room was finally extinguished and stopped, and the two of them were able to breathe. They looked condescendingly, the crematorium gate was closed, there was no light anywhere except the gatehouse, there were few residents around, it seemed that both Chinese and Japanese were taboo about such places, of course, for scouts, the more such places were suitable for hiding.
In the middle of the night, Lin Xiuxuan began to formulate a flight route according to the situation of the Japanese garrison in high places photographed by drones. Aircraft must drill between fixed and mobile posts, stop precisely around the communication cable, and then sense and restore the signal transmitted within the cable. This kind of eavesdropping can only be carried out late at night to avoid being seen, but there are usually no official calls at night, which is a contradiction, so you can only try your luck.
He lifted the buzzing small drone out of the tower and maneuvered it to fly towards the target. The Japanese headquarters was a four-story European-style building, and the searchlights of the air alert swept around, which became a good indicator. On both sides of the main building, there are attached barracks and garage buildings, and the cables are routed along the highest ridge on the roof, and then down the downpipe, into the bottom, which was not easy to find, but yesterday the enemy's communications troops suddenly climbed up and down to check the line, exposing the location of the cables, luck always tends to the prepared side, not to mention that the drone of No. 419 is staring at this place 24 hours a day, or it is difficult to expose flaws.
The drone chose to fly in from a high wall on the side, trying to stay away from a row of iron cages behind the wall on the other side, where more than a dozen wolfdogs were kept. But as the helicopter flew over the high wall, the wolfdogs in the distance barked like crazy, and were stopped by the keepers who had driven them out of the house. Behind the high wall was the central square, with two anti-aircraft guns covered with cloth. According to the observation of high-altitude UAVs, the entire command has a total of 6 double-barreled anti-aircraft guns, 2 searchlights, and another 4 anti-aircraft guns are deployed at high places, in better positions with a firing range, and there are people on duty.
Outside the gate, a sidecar motorcycle roared in, the sound drowning out the drone's slight sound and drawing the attention of the military dog.
The drone went around the platform above the barracks at low speed, where there was a third anti-aircraft gun, as well as 2 soldiers on duty. The helicopter quietly jumped onto the top floor of the main building. There are four chimneys side by side on the roof, which is a nice cover, and if necessary, the helicopter can be hidden behind the chimneys and hidden until daylight.
This small plane passively monitors the state more power-saving and can last for a long time. The high-altitude drone is condescending, and you can see the courtyard, a patrol of 5 people patrolling along the same route (the drone has long been recorded) to check whether each sentry is lazy, and these people do not pose any threat.
The drone found a good position behind a chimney, landed directly next to the communication cable, and began to receive electromagnetic signals from the cable. Within 5 minutes, I was able to hear the routine communication inspection of the Tokyo base camp here.
A female voice indicates to check the line, and then hangs up. Then there was no longer any telephone contact, there was no way, Lin Xiuxuan and Lu Qingshan could only sit in this gloomy, piled with ashes in the mourning tower and wait, before dawn, they had to withdraw from here, so that no one would come in and clean during the day, but if the helicopter stayed in place, the high-altitude drone could still receive the signal. In fact, the roof of the enemy building was exactly a place where the lights were dark, and as long as they didn't go up to check, there was no taller building nearby to see a small plane hidden there.
Sure enough, no useful information was heard that night, except for a lewd operator in the headquarters, who told a few meat jokes to the female operator at the Tokyo base camp through a routine communication check every two hours.
In the early hours of the morning, Lin Xiuxuan began to think about whether he should recover the helicopter first or come back tomorrow night, but if it was late at night every day, it would be difficult to catch up with the normal communication time.
Just hesitating, suddenly there was a signal.
The staff on duty in the communication room suddenly received a call from the Tokyo base camp, asking him to transfer to the Sifang Ryoji Daisa.
Lin hurriedly put on his headphones for fear of missing something. Lu Qingshan also put on headphones and listened together. Ryoji Quartakata will succeed the Tokyo Gendarmerie in the future and become the main thug in the control of the Tojo Cabinet, and in the Pacific War, he is considered a big guy, and it seems that he is currently in Shanghai.
A tired voice spoke: "Hey, I'm Quartet." Who are you calling so early? ”
"It's me." A stern and cold voice said.
"Who are you?"
"Is the signal not clear? Can't even hear my voice? ”
"Your Excellency, it was you?"
I can hear that this person is not small, and the Quartet Dazuo, who was still in a daze just now, suddenly cheered up.
"Well, I'm going to have a meeting of important ministers today, I got up early and saw Nanmoto's report, I want to know what the hell is going on with you? You want to mobilize the navy's ships to transport prisoners? ”
Lin's heart chuckled, wondering if it could be Ma Qiang that they were mentioning?
"Your Excellency, there was an armed hijacking the night before yesterday, and we lost 26 men, and Major General Kagesa made a little fuss, believing that it was safer to be escorted by sea and land. He felt that the three delirious prisoners were not trivial, and that they had to be sent to the base camp to be investigated by Ito of the General Staff or the Cabinet Intelligence Department. ”
"What's so serious?"
"What's a big deal, it's nothing more than a guy who has been beaten, and he's just talking nonsense in a hurry, I've seen a lot of this kind of thing. But yesterday that guy from Shadow Zuo interrupted my interrogation and delayed my crusade against the Chongqing assassination. ”
"How did this fool get it lately, the negotiations with Wang Jingwei's government seem weak, he has made too many concessions, and he has to meddle in so many irrelevant things."
"Yes, Your Excellency, but Major General Kusumoto trusts him very much. I think he's a complete waste of time, those guys from the navy who came up from the sea are obviously delirious lunatic, full of crazy thoughts, and should be sent directly to a mental hospital, no, they should be shot. ”
"Oh? What did they say? ”
"It's going to make you laugh when you say it," said Makino, who was the leader, and they came from the future of Heisei 29...... It was to prevent the Empire from going to war with the United States and Britain. Hehe, Kagezo actually believed what he said. ”
Lin Xiuxuan's mind buzzed suddenly, and he suddenly realized that he had made a huge mistake in his actions the day before yesterday. He originally thought that Ma Qiang's arrest was the biggest problem since the 419 crossing, but now it seems that the real problem has just appeared.
