There was originally a strengthened infantry squadron of the Japanese army in the No. 2 Military Depot. In order to protect the counterfeit banknote manufacturing factory, an infantry squadron was specially strengthened. Not only that, but there is also a 12-member action team sent by the Peking Military Police Headquarters Special High School Division. All of these guys are martial arts masters and have extremely powerful combat effectiveness.

If they attack by force, although the guerrillas are still sure to capture the Japanese counterfeit banknote factory, they will inevitably suffer heavy casualties. Moreover, once the battle starts here, the Japanese army will soon arrive for reinforcements, and they will also be intercepted by the Japanese army along the way. It is very difficult to escape, let alone bring those experts and equipment back to the base.

The most outrageous thing is that there are four experts in the Japanese army, and the two most important ones do not live here. Not only that, in order to keep the counterfeit banknote factory secret, the machinery, equipment and factory buildings were equipped with explosives in advance. Once the battle begins, Japanese agents can detonate it at any time.

After understanding the enemy's situation, Xu Dalong, Li Changshui, Wei Monk and others discussed and formulated a careful action plan.

That morning, the head of the counterfeit banknote factory action team, Yokoji Ichiro, received a call from the Chief of the Special High School Division of the Military Police Headquarters, asking him to cooperate with the No. 2 Military Station to transfer the counterfeit banknote factory.

Yokoji Ichiro heard it very clearly. It was the call from the super high school section chief himself. He didn't have the slightest suspicion, so he came to see Nobuo Hirota, the commander of the No. 2 Military Station.

Nobuo Hirota said that he also received an order from his superiors, who would send a transportation team to be responsible for the relocation of the counterfeit banknote factory.

Yokoji Ichiro was completely relieved and returned to the banknote printing factory. He dismantled all the installed explosives. According to the order of the Super High School Section Chief, he also asked the person in charge of the banknote printing factory to remove two people who lived in the city. The coinage expert also called back.

At 11 o'clock in the morning, a transport convoy consisting of four trucks entered the No. 2 Military Station. Many Japanese soldiers got out of the truck, led by a Japanese soldier.

Ichiro Yokoji looked at his ID. It was exactly the same as the identity of the transportation team mentioned by the Super High School Section Chief on the phone. He ordered his agents to assist them and load the machinery and equipment onto the truck.

Subsequently, in accordance with the notice from the Super High School Section Chief, they did not bring other Japanese troops for escort, but only took the members of the Special High School Action Team to continue to protect the experts, technicians and machinery and equipment of the banknote printing plant, and headed to the new banknote printing plant.

After the transport convoy left the No. 2 Military Station, Nobuo Hirota felt very uneasy, wondering whether his daughter would be able to return safely. In the evening, he received an outside call from his daughter. His heart felt completely at ease.

This matter didn't happen until the morning of the third day, when the cash transport truck drove to the No. 2 Military Station to collect counterfeit banknotes. Only then did the Peking Military Police Headquarters discover that something was wrong, and they immediately sent people to investigate.

Nobuo Hirota said that he agreed to move the banknote printing plant after receiving an order from his superiors. The switchboard attendant on duty at the No. 2 Military Station at the time can vouch for this. At the same time, the Japanese Army's Special High School Section also investigated the front army switchboard attendant, who could also testify that they received a call from the No. 2 Military Station, requesting the return of two cash transport experts. There were no records of the phone calls made by the military station and the military police headquarters, including the super high school section chief.

After analysis, the chief of the Special High School Division basically figured out what happened. The enemy must have impersonated his own voice and that of relevant personnel. He notified Nobuo Hirota, the commander of the No. 2 Military Station, and General Yokoji Ichiro of the Special High School Action Team. The banknote factory was moved out.

Hirota Nobuo was originally worried that he would be held accountable for such a big thing, but he did not expect that these people from the underground party kept their word and not only released his daughter safely, but also did not cause any trouble to him.

At this time, Xu Dalong and others had already entered the border of Shanxi. As for Ichiro Yokota and his agents, they had been eliminated by the special forces on the way.

The commander and Zhang Wanhe were very happy to learn that Xu Dalong and others destroyed the Japanese money printing den without firing a shot and brought back all the technical backbone and machinery and equipment, and specially prepared a banquet to welcome Xu Dalong , Li Changshui and others returned victoriously.

"Brother Dalong, you did a great job." Zhang Wanhe said happily after seeing Xu Dalong.

He continued: "Experts have already tried the two paper-making materials you recommended, and the paper produced does have a unique feel. After they determined that this kind of paper uses special materials, the devils simply don't care. It may be prevented.

The border tickets reprinted on this kind of paper can completely prevent forgery by the enemy. Brother Dalong, I really admire you. Everything is so simple for you. "

The commander was also very happy. He said with some embarrassment: "Xu Dalong, you have repeatedly made military exploits. Not only me, the commander of the military region, but even the bosses don't know how to reward you."

Xu Dalong smiled and said: "There is no need for rewards. Gaining the trust of the organization is the biggest reward for us."

At this moment, a cadre in his 30s came over. He stretched out his hand and said enthusiastically: "Brother Dalong, you have made new achievements again. This time, you must publicize your deeds."

Xu Dalong has met the visitor. He is Huang Qiyu, director of the Propaganda Department of the Political Department of the headquarters. He came here mainly to interview Xu Dalong and others, and then to publicly expose the Japanese army's conspiracy to forge counterfeit currency in the media.

Xu Dalong did not agree with this. In front of so many people, he couldn't say it face to face, so he quietly said to Zhang Wanhe: "Minister Zhang, the people in the base area and the surrounding areas are not very clear about the Japanese army's forgery of counterfeit currency. At this time, if Exposing the Japanese conspiracy will definitely cause panic. It will seriously affect the credibility of the border tickets currently being used, and the consequences will be catastrophic.

It is better to wait until the new border notes are printed, have a sufficient quantity, and then uniformly exchange them for the common people, so that the crime of printing counterfeit banknotes by the Japanese army can be completely exposed. "

Zhang Wanhe said: "Brother Dalong, you are right. I will talk to the propaganda department about this matter."

After the reception banquet held for Xu Dalong and others, Zhang Wanhe said to Xu Dalong: "Brother Dalong, can the machines and equipment you obtained and the experts who forge counterfeit money be handed over to the logistics department so that they can participate in the border ticket verification? development?"

Xu Dalong said: "Of course. However, if it is just for this purpose, it is still a bit of a waste. The experts and technical power originally responsible for the border tickets are enough.

I do have an idea to put these experts and machines to greater use. "

After speaking, he quietly told Zhang Wanhe his thoughts.

Zhang Wanhe was very excited after hearing this and said that he would report to the head of the headquarters immediately and asked Xu Dalong not to return to the Mawushan base for the time being, but to wait here for news from him.

After Zhang Wanhe returned to the headquarters, he did not show up for three days.

On the fourth day, he came back and said to Xu Dalong: "After I reported it to the head of the headquarters, the head of the headquarters took it very seriously. This matter was really too big, so they also reported it to their superiors. The superiors just replied and said they agreed with the headquarters' decision. After research, the bosses agreed with your idea and decided to proceed secretly. I will leave the details to you."

Xu Dalong said: "Please rest assured, chief, I will definitely complete this task."

The commander also attached great importance to the mission that Xu Dalong was about to perform and said to Xu Dalong: "I'm not worried about your ability. It's just that the journey here is long and the enemy situation is serious. You must be careful in everything! I only have one request for you, that Just come back safely.”

Xu Dalong was very moved by the commander's sincere concern. He said: "Thank you, commander, for your concern. Please rest assured. We will definitely come back safely."

Mawushan base area.

Xu Dalong said to Zhao Gang: "Commissioner Zhao Zheng, the experts we brought back need to undergo ideological transformation. It's all up to you. After we come back, we hope they can put into work directly."

Zhao Gang said: "Captain, don't worry. You can complete such a difficult task. If I can't handle the ideological work of these guys, I will no longer be the Commissioner Zheng."

Zhao Gang turned out to be a very cautious person, leaving room for words. But he spent a long time with people like Li Yunlong and Xu Dalong, and his work style gradually moved closer to them.

As the saying goes, those who are close to vermillion are red, and those who are close to ink are dark. The high degree of self-confidence in Li Yunlong and Xu Dalong deeply affects the people around them, and Zhao Gang cannot avoid it.

Li Yunlong said: "Brother Dalong, you just came back from going out, and you have to go out again. I know you are capable, but you still have to be more careful when going out. After you leave, I will personally go to the winery to let them brew some good wine. , when you come back, let’s have a good drink.”

Zhao Gang said: "Captain, you have been here for a long time. Do you have anything else to explain about the matters in the base area?"

Xu Dalong smiled and said: "Captain, Commissioner Zheng, you two will be in charge of the base area, I am completely relieved.

I went out to a nice place this time. Think about it, what else can I bring back to my sister-in-law? If it doesn't work, go back and ask them. I will definitely bring it back for you. "

Li Yunlong said: "Your sister-in-law is a country girl, and the things in the county are enough for her. There is no need to go all the way to carry things for her."

Zhao Gang said: "Old Li, you don't understand. How can the things in the county compare with those over there? Besides, even if they are the same things, they have different meanings when they are brought back from such a long distance.

Lao Li, your paternalistic style works well in the army, but you should listen to your sister-in-law more at home. "

Li Yunlong curled his lips and said: "Old Zhao, you intellectuals are just too picky. I've seen it a long time ago. You listen to your little partner in everything, and you will definitely have tracheitis in the end."

Early the next morning, Xu Dalong, Lin Xueying, and Wei Monk led a detachment of special forces members and left the Mawushan base area for Chongqing.

After arriving in Chongqing, Xu Dalong first went to the underground party office and reported the purpose of his trip to the person in charge.

The person in charge of the underground party attached great importance to this operation and said that they would notify the underground party intelligence organization to cooperate with the actions of Xu Dalong and others.

Xu Dalong brought 20,000 yuan this time and expressed his sincere gratitude to the Chongqing office for upholding justice for him last time.

The person in charge of the office told Xu Dalong to work confidently and boldly without any worries. The organization believed in Xu Dalong's loyalty. If there is any trouble in the future, the office will resolve it for Xu Dalong.

Counselor Gao was also very happy to see Xu Dalong, and he insisted on paying for a banquet for Xu Dalong. Xu Dalong then declined the accommodation arranged by Counselor Gao for them and found a hotel to stay on his own.

Just when Xu Dalong and others were reporting to the office, Lin Xueying came to the military command headquarters and met You Yukun, director of the counterintelligence division of the military command headquarters.

Lin Xueying gave a military salute and said: "Virgin, Lin Xueying, a member of the Taiyuan working group, reports to you."

You Yukun said: "Major Lin, you are here, please take a seat. Is Brother Dalong here? Where does he live now?"

Lin Xueying said: "Captain Xu lives in Room 208 of Jinyun Hotel."

You Yukun said: "Very good. Now you come with me to see the bureau chief."

You Yukun took Lin Xueying to see the boss of the military commander. He asked Xu Dalong and others about the destruction of the dens where counterfeit banknotes were printed in Peiping. He highly praised their actions and left the next actions to You Yu. Kun handled the entire process.

After leaving the boss's office, You Yukun said to Lin Xueying: "Tell brother Dalong. Let's book a banquet at Jinyun Hotel and let's get together."

At noon, You Yukun set up a banquet in Tingyuxuan, the most luxurious private room of Jinyun Hotel, and entertained Xu Dalong, Lin Xueying, and Monk Wei.

In addition to You Yukun, there are also Major Lin Zhongmin and Captain Chang Yuan of the Military Unified Action Team.

After You Yukun introduced their identities to Xu Daolong and others, he said: "Brother Dalong, Shangfeng attaches great importance to this operation. The bureau leader specifically told me to take charge of this matter. The two of them will be with you. Form a special operations team to complete this task together. The action team will be led by Brother Dalong."

Lin Zhongmin and Chang Yuan both expressed their admiration to Xu Dalong and said that they were willing to obey Xu Dalong's command.

The task that Xu Dalong and others are going to carry out this time is a task jointly formulated by the underground party and the Guofu. They want to fight an economic war with the Japanese invaders together.

The Japanese army not only forged border area tickets issued by the underground party, but also forged legal tender issued by the Kuomintang government. At the beginning of the Anti-Japanese War, the ratio of legal currency to ocean was 2:1, and two legal currency could be exchanged for one ocean. As the war progressed, the legal currency depreciated rapidly. Last year, it reached six legal currency for one ocean. This year, the situation has become even worse. The Japanese invaders have counterfeited a large amount of legal currency. As a result, the legal currency has devalued to 17 yuan, which can be exchanged for an ocean.
