Just when the Red Party "received" that batch of weapons and equipment from Jiuduanban and the others.
On a street not far from Zhenhua Martial Arts School.
As the actual executor of tonight's "Tiger Slaughter" plan, Squadron Leader Kangji, who was the first to set off, was observing the specific situation at the scene with his executive officers and orderlies.
Originally, for the sake of confidentiality, the specific plans and goals of this operation were not notified to the Japanese troops of Kangji Squadron.
Even the Matsui Izakaya is the same. They only know that a big shot will book the place for the day and let them close their doors today.
The people at Matsui Izakaya didn’t know exactly what they were going to do.
But the commander of tonight's operation is Kudanban, which makes Colonel Hirano still a little uneasy. In his opinion, the actions of the secret service and military operations are two different concepts.
Colonel Hirano would not put his life and the lives of his soldiers in the hands of a person from the secret service that he had never come into contact with so easily.
Therefore, at his request, Squadron Leader Kangji also gained the right to know. Squadron Leader Kangji felt that he should at least conduct an on-site inspection before taking action in order to feel relieved.
As for the departure time, Kudansaka asked him to wait at Matsui Izakaya first, or an order. But he was ignored by Squadron Leader Kangji.
Anyway, the agreed meeting time is two hours later, which is still early. The few of them were wearing regular clothes, so walking around would not attract anyone's attention.
After walking around the perimeter of Zhenhua Martial Arts Hall and checking with the map in his memory, Captain Kangji led his men towards Matsui Izakaya, preparing to meet up with Kudansaka and the others.
Along the way, Captain Kangji and the others saw many entertainment venues such as casinos and brothels, some of which were already open for business in broad daylight.
Captain Kangji and the others looked a little ready to make a move.
Although the French Concession is not as good as the public concession in terms of economic development and public management.
But when it comes to the entertainment service industry, the French Concession can be said to be several streets away from the public concession.
In the French Concession, due to the lack of local management manpower, a large number of Chinese police detectives were used. This makes the collusion between the police and gangsters in the French Concession very serious. As one of the three tycoons in Shanghai, Boss Huang has the title of the Chinese Chief Inspector of the French Concession.
From this we can know what most of the police detectives here in the French Concession are like.
Against this background, it is no exaggeration to say that various entertainment venues in the French Concession are blooming everywhere.
From more formal cinemas and theaters to gray and black gambling stalls, opium dens and brothels, the French Concession has everything you need.
Almost half of the entertainment businesses in Shanghai are located in the French Concession. It is not just the Chinese who enjoy entertainment here. Foreigners such as the Japanese, French, Americans, etc. are the main force of consumption.
Most of the Japanese troops stationed in Shanghai, including Captain Kangji, also like to come here to play when they are on vacation.
Regular customer!
Just thinking about the mission in the evening, Captain Kangji could only suppress the desire in his heart, thinking that he would go to the Matsui Izakaya later and ask two geishas to relax first.
As for now, he is just slowing down his pace to satisfy his eyesight.
Just like this, Captain Kangji finally arrived at Matsui Izakaya.
But to Captain Kangji's surprise, he could not see anyone in Kudanzaka, and even the two trucks carrying weapons and ammunition for his men were nowhere to be seen.
Subconsciously, Captain Kangji had bad thoughts, and he immediately asked his orderlies to search along the truck's route.
And he himself used the phone number of Matsui Izakaya to call the Black Dragon Club directly.
After receiving the call from Captain Kokichi, Fujita Yoshimasa immediately realized that something was wrong. He immediately ordered all members of the secret service to dispatch to search for the whereabouts of Kudansaka and the others.
The distance was very short, so the people from the secret service quickly had a preliminary search result:
Kudanban and the others, along with the two trucks of weapons and equipment, were missing.
As a result, Fujita Yoshimasa was so angry that he threw the table.
Several large living people, accompanied by two trucks. How could such a big thing just disappear?
Soon, the secret service began to search for useful clues along the route of Kudanban and the others.
Even the soldiers from Captain Kangji's squadron were all called over to assist.
There is no way, now that even the weapons and equipment are gone, it is naturally impossible to continue the plan for the night raid.
Is it possible to let them attack with bare hands?
It didn't take long for the secret service to find clues, confirm the area where Kudanban and the others had an accident, and also find several witnesses at the time.
But now, nearly an hour has passed, and it is almost impossible to pursue those who intercepted and killed Kudanban.
When the news came back to the Black Dragon Club, Fujita Yoshimasa, who had already dropped the table once, did not get angry again. He just said to Lieutenant Fujioka in a gloomy tone:
"Check, find out who did it. Also, find out how the news was leaked."
"Hi."
Lieutenant Colonel Fujioka immediately accepted the order and left.
This time Kudanban and the others were intercepted and killed. It was obviously a premeditated action. The other party clearly knew the time, route and personnel configuration of Kudanban and the others.
The only way to figure out the situation so clearly is that the "Tiger Slaughter" plan was leaked.
This matter must be investigated clearly, otherwise the secret service will be blamed.
The purchase price of a squadron's weapons and equipment by the military logistics department alone is tens of thousands of yen. If it is sold on the black market, the price will be at least three or four times higher.
Under non-war circumstances, if so many weapons and equipment were gone at one time, Fujita Yoshimasa would be held accountable by the military if there was no clear reason.
As for Colonel Hirano sitting next to him, his face was as dark as the bottom of a pot at this moment.
"Fujita-kun, you must give me an explanation for this matter, otherwise, I am afraid that I, the newly appointed commander, will be dismissed."
"Please rest assured, Mr. Hirano, I will take full responsibility for this matter and will not cause any trouble to you."
Fujita Yoshimasa comforted Colonel Hirano.
He knew very well the worries of Colonel Hirano. At present, the size of the Japanese army stationed in Shanghai is only about 1,800. This time, one-tenth of the personnel, weapons and equipment are missing.
As long as the military department holds him accountable, Colonel Hirano will definitely be in bad luck.
More importantly, if I let Colonel Hirano suffer, it would be extremely difficult for him to mobilize the army to cooperate with his actions in the future.
With Fujita Yoshimasa's words, Hirano Hirano's face looked a little better.
"Fujita-kun, I can only rely on you from now on. As for me, I'd better call all the soldiers back first."
"Thank you Hirano-kun for your consideration."
Fujita Yoshimasa bowed to Hirano Colonel.
Colonel Hirano also returned the salute and went out to gather the soldiers of his squadron.
Otherwise, if you put them outside, especially in a place like the French Concession, I'm afraid a few of them will "disappear" before long.
Then, wait a few days until your pockets are empty before rejoining the team.
After Colonel Hirano left, Fujita Yoshimasa sat back down and began to think carefully.
What went wrong?
That night.
Lu Feng came to the Black Dragon Club on a daily basis, preparing to change the tapes for the day.
Then he discovered that the Black Dragon Club was very lively today, with lights on in most rooms, and it seemed that many people were working overtime all night.
Obviously, this morning's "reception" operation had a great impact on these secret service guys. In the short term, they probably have no intention of attacking Zhenhua Martial Arts School again.
Looking at this posture, I have no chance to go to the attic to replace the tape today.
Seeing the situation, Lu Feng did not venture into the Black Dragon Club anymore, but turned around and headed towards Duan Haiping's house.
Looking from a distance, Lu Feng saw the clothes hanging out in Duan Haiping's yard that seemed to have been forgotten in the room.
This is a signal for the other party to invite you to meet.
Lu Feng patrolled around and after making sure that there was no one except the few informants arranged by Duan Haiping, he knocked on the door of Duan Haiping's house.
Soon, Duan Haiping, neatly dressed, came and opened the door.
Obviously, he hadn't slept yet and was waiting for Lu Feng.
The two nodded, and Lu Feng walked into the living room.
After Duan Haiping followed him, he excitedly raised his hands to Lu Feng.
"Duan, on behalf of myself and our organization, I would like to thank Mr. Lu."
"Mr. Duan, you're welcome. I just did what I should do."
"Mr. Lu, I'm not being polite, but this batch of weapons and equipment is really important to us.
You don't know how hard it is for us guerrillas outside. Now with the support of such a batch of weapons, I don’t know how many lives of our comrades can be saved. "
"Okay, Mr. Duan, you don't have to be so polite. You guys got the things yourself, I just passed on the news to you.
Then, when you called me over, it shouldn't be as simple as thanking me, right? "
Duan Haiping controlled his emotions, then nodded and said:
"Yes, Mr. Lu, the superiors have approved the cooperation plan you proposed. Next, I will be responsible for contacting you and formulating a specific action plan."
The acquisition of this batch of weapons and equipment today has made the Red Party's superiors in Shanghai have a lot more trust in Lu Feng, the "ghost".
This further made the Red Party superiors who were originally hesitant to invest manpower and resources in participating in the interception of the Yayoi proposed by Lu Feng also made up their minds.
Lu Feng relaxed a lot after hearing the news.
Although he had already guessed it when he came, Lu Feng was still very happy after hearing the confirmation from Duan Haiping.
A highly technical job like navigation is really not something that ordinary people can do.
If there is no one to take care of him, and he rashly attacks the Yayoi, even if he succeeds, how will he be able to return to land in the vast sea?
It’s impossible to say that you can drive a destroyer that is over a hundred meters long by yourself, right?
It is better to have an organization to rely on.
Of course, the premise is that this organization is trustworthy, forget about a caravan like the Kuomintang.
It is basically impossible to expect them to "bring brothers together".
