Xu Dalong was very grateful to the commander. He said: "One moment and another moment. Now that the Guofu side is fawning over the United States, they have not yet thought about focusing on dealing with me. No matter what the Mi side says, we are fighting against Japan together. friendly forces, we should lend a helping hand for rescue, and I hope that through this rescue of the Mi *** personnel, we can establish a certain relationship with the Mi *** side and gain some benefits from them. "
The commander said: "If this can be done, of course it is a good thing. If the American observation group can be successfully rescued, it can enhance the reputation of our underground party's anti-Japanese armed forces in the world. If you think you are sure to complete this task, you can Go on this mission.”
Xu Dalong said: "Commander, please rest assured, I will definitely be able to complete this mission."
Soon after, Xu Dalong, Wei Monk, Lin Xueying, and Wang Jinke led a detachment of special forces members to Chongqing.
After they arrived in Chongqing, You Yukun immediately brought Xu Dalong and others to see the boss.
The boss's attitude was very sincere. He hoped that Xu Dalong could rescue the American army observation team, and said that the military command, including himself, would definitely reward Xu Dalong heavily.
The boss said this completely sincerely, because he was under too much pressure. As the American military observation team remained in the hands of the Japanese for longer and longer, he was worried that something unexpected had happened to the three-man American military team.
If that's the case, the military command really can't afford to go around in circles.
Xu Dalong understood his mood and said, "Boss, please rest assured. If nothing else, just for Lin Xueying's matter, I will definitely complete this rescue mission."
The boss was very happy after hearing this and felt that Xu Dalong was a man who repaid his kindness. He said gratefully: "Brother Dalong, you are really a friend. As long as you help me this big favor again, I will definitely return this favor to you twice as much."
Xu Dalong said: "Without further delay, I will set off today."
This operation was of great importance to the military command, so the boss simply sent You Yukun to accompany Xu Dalong on this mission.
That afternoon, Xu Dalong, You Yukun and others left Chongqing on a military transport plane. They arrived in Chuzhou that night, had dinner in Chuzhou, and entered enemy-occupied territory overnight.
Along the way, Xu Dalong and others disguised themselves as Japanese soldiers and passed the six checkpoints set up by the Japanese army.
At the beginning, You Yukun was a little nervous. Seeing that Xu Dalong and others were able to cope with it easily, he gradually felt relieved.
Xu Dalong and his soldiers were all calm and composed. It was obvious that they had experienced such scenes countless times. Every soldier was proficient in Japanese, and all of this left a deep impression on You Yukun.
He had long known about Xu Dalong's extraordinary abilities, and this time he felt that not only Xu Dalong, but also the overall quality of the ordinary soldiers under him exceeded that of ordinary military agents.
After arriving at Xiongzhou City, where the Japanese army imprisoned the American military observation team, You Yukun came forward to contact the military reunification Xiongzhou working group.
The working group reported to You Yukun, Xu Dalong and others, saying that according to the information they had, three members of the US military observation team are still alive and are being held in the gendarmerie.
After listening to the situation introduced by the working group, Xu Dalong, Lin Xueying, Wei Monk and others, accompanied by agents from the Xiongzhou working group, entered Xiongzhou City.
In the evening, Xu Dalong and others took advantage of the fact that the city gate was not closed, left Xiongzhou City, and came to the contact point of the military commander's agents to tell them the intelligence they had obtained through reconnaissance.
Xu Dalong took out a sketch and compared it with the topographic map of Xiongzhou City and described what they observed.
The hostages were held at the Japanese military police station. It was located in the compound of the Japanese military police headquarters. The location was very special. It was not directly close to the wall of the military police headquarters compound. Instead, there was an independent courtyard in the compound, surrounded by It was a Japanese army barracks. There are at least hundreds of soldiers stationed there, and once the battle begins, the entire gendarmerie can be surrounded within three minutes.
The division headquarters of the Japanese 16th Division is in Xiongzhou City. There are more than 10,000 Japanese troops stationed here, not including tens of thousands of puppet troops and police.
Not only is the enemy situation around the gendarmerie so serious, but the gendarmerie itself is also very heavily guarded. The wall is more than a foot high, and a power grid is erected on it, which is energized both day and night.
It is also very difficult to sneak into the gendarmerie. Personnel coming in and out not only have to check their documents, but also have to make a phone call on the spot to verify their identity with their unit.
Because of this, the military command organized three rescue operations, all of which failed.
After listening to the briefing, You Yukun felt helpless.
Although he believed that Xu Dalong must have a way, he still couldn't figure out what method to use to rescue the members of the American military observation team safely from the military police.
In addition, there is a more difficult matter. After rescuing people, how can they be safely sent out of Xiongzhou City where tens of thousands of Japanese and puppet troops are stationed.
You Yukun thought about it seriously for a long time and felt that he could not complete this task with his own ability.
He asked hopefully: "Brother Dalong, is there anything you can do?"
Xu Dalong said: "Based on the current situation, it is impossible to attack by force, we can only resort to outsmarting.
As for what to do, further observation is needed before making a plan. "
You Yukun asked: "What should we do now?"
Xu Dalong said: "We are walking on two legs. On the one hand, we ask the brothers in the working group to collect as much intelligence as possible related to the Japanese military police. On the other hand, we monitor the phone calls of the Japanese military police headquarters to find out who is involved in the investigation of the Japanese military." We must gather relevant intelligence and formulate a rescue plan after we have a clear understanding of the situation.”
You Yukun and the members of the working group all believed that what Xu Dalong said was reasonable, so the working group took the initiative to arrange for them to rent private houses and set up monitoring points around the Japanese military police headquarters.
It is very difficult to monitor the phone calls in the Japanese military police headquarters. First, you must try to connect the phone to the phone line of the military police headquarters. This is not difficult for Xu Dalong and others, who quietly completed the task of connecting the phone lines at night.
The second step is to monitor the phone calls inside.
The Japanese military police headquarters was very large, with at least more than 100 telephones inside. Monitoring phone calls is a very arduous task, and it is really difficult to obtain useful information.
The special operations team members took turns listening to each other. In order to concentrate, they changed shifts every half an hour.
Due to the need for confidentiality, the Japanese military will not directly mention the US military liaison group during the call. After a lot of monitoring, they heard that the Japanese military police mentioned this number many times in the external phone calls: "103."
Xu Dalong and others were not sure what this 103 meant. After speculation, it was probably related to the US Army Liaison Group.
Although I don't know what this 103 means, at least the number 3 in it exactly matches the number of three members of the US military observation team.
After five days of continuous monitoring, some useful information was finally collected, which confirmed that three members of the American military observation team are still detained in the Japanese military police.
The working group also provided relevant information. Gao Changming, the translator of the Japanese Military Police, would spend the night at the home of a concubine he kept overnight every three days.
The leader of the working group suggested that Gao Changming should be arrested first and find out from him the situation in the gendarmerie.
Kidnapping is a familiar matter for military commanders, and there is no need for the people Xu Dalong brought to take action.
Not only did they kidnap Gao Changming, they also directly sent people to kidnap his parents, wife, two children, as well as his mistress and his mistress' father.
In this case, Gao Changming had no choice but to cooperate obediently.
After Xu Dalong and You Yukun personally interrogated Gao Changming, they felt that the matter was very complicated.
First of all, they heard good news. The three members of the US military observation team are still alive.
The rest is bad news.
The place where the members of the American military observation team are detained is in the basement of the military police office building. The only exit is in the room of a squad leader of the military police.
If you want to save people, you must pass through the office building.
In the office building lived a whole team of Japanese military police, more than 40 of them.
Not only that, there are also six agents from the Special High School Action Team living inside. They are very vigilant, and there are always at least three people on duty at the same time. If they want to enter the office building silently and rescue people, it is basically necessary. There is no possibility.
Xu Dalong originally wanted to enter the gendarmerie through the sewers, but this trick had already been used in previous rescue operations organized by the military command. The Japanese gendarmerie had strengthened precautions in this regard, and all sewers leading to the gendarmerie courtyard were A large vat filled with stones has been placed above the exit. It is impossible to lift the manhole cover from below.
Xu Dalong asked Gao Changming to return to the Gendarmerie tomorrow and continue working as if nothing had happened. He warned him not to play tricks and to control his emotions and not reveal any flaws, otherwise he would bear the consequences.
In order to allow Gao Changming to work for the military commander, Xu Dalong told him that as long as he could help the military commander rescue the members of the American military observation team, the military commander would record this credit for him, which would help him clear out the charges of Han women in the future. , and will also reward him with a considerable bonus.
The best way to deal with such a man-girl relationship is to add carrots and sticks. Just use the safety of his family and his own life to threaten him, so that he can't see hope and his rebellious mentality will be very strong. You must also give him Focus on the future and reduce his sense of resistance as much as possible.
Gao Changming now had no choice but to obediently agree to cooperate with the military commander.
After the military agents took Gao Changming down, You Yukun asked: "Brother Dalong, the rescue mission is really difficult. Do you have any ideas?"
Xu Dalong said: "Team Leader Li, please bring the sewer pipeline distribution map below the gendarmerie."
The leader Li mentioned by Xu Dalong is Li Chunsheng, the leader of the Xiongzhou Military Reunion Working Group. They had already tried the method of rescuing people through the sewers, but now it was obviously impossible. He didn't quite understand what the purpose of Xu Dalong's sewer pipe diagram was?
But he didn't ask any more questions and took it anyway.
Xu Dalong looked at it carefully and said, "Sir You, Team Leader Li, come here."
He pointed to a sewer pipe and said: "This sewer is only 12 meters away from the basement where the US military observation team is held. What do you think if we dig a passage from here to the basement?"
You Yukun nodded, but before he could speak, Li Chunsheng couldn't help but exclaimed excitedly: "Oh! Why didn't I think of this method? It's only 12 meters away, and it won't take long to dig through."
You Yukun said: "Brother Dalong, it is indeed a good idea. If we rescue people in the middle of the night without anyone noticing, then leave the city overnight, and wait until the Japanese army finds out it is already too late. This method has the least risk and the greatest certainty of success. ,I agree."
Li Chunsheng said: "This is a really good idea. I will organize people to start construction immediately."
Xu Dalong said: "Don't be anxious about this matter, we have to study it carefully and consider all the details.
First of all, we need to find the relevant personnel involved in the original construction of the Military Police Headquarters Building, find out the specific structure inside, and ensure that the tunnel we dig can accurately connect to the cell where the American military observation group is held.
Secondly, Gao Changming must secretly inform the people of the Mi Army Observation Group that when our people are digging tunnels, they will inevitably make noises, especially when approaching the basement, and the Mi Army Observation Group needs to cooperate inside. In the event that Japanese troops entered the cell during the construction process, they would provide a timely warning and temporarily stop excavation.
In addition, it is necessary to prepare in advance the means of transportation for evacuation, understand the relevant situation of the Japanese city defense, and be prepared to respond outside the city. "
You Yukun was very interested and said: "Brother Dalong is right, let's study it carefully now."
After discussion, a rescue plan was basically formed.
Xu Dalong said: "This is our first rescue plan, and we will continue to monitor the phone calls of the gendarmerie. We also need to prepare a second camp.
rescue plan. "
At the beginning, Li Chunsheng was still a little unconvinced that the military command headquarters sent Xu Dalong to carry out the rescue mission.
Although You Yukun introduced Xu Dalong's various miraculous deeds, he still believed that Xu Dalong was unfamiliar with the place and could not do better than their working group that had been lurking here for a long time.
After actual contact, Li Chunsheng discovered that Xu Dalong was thoughtful and flexible, and the calmness and confidence exuding from him could convey great confidence to others.
He began to really pay attention to Xu Dalong's opinions and thought to himself: "No wonder the military command headquarters values Xu Dalong so much. It is indeed extraordinary."
Everyone decided to implement the first rescue plan, and Li Chunsheng asked his men to bring Gao Changming over and ask him to secretly pass the rescue plan to the American observation team.
