Terauchi Juichi couldn't afford to mess with his wife, and after all, Sanmu Kenichi was his brother-in-law. In comparison, those underground gangs were unimportant. There are really too many underground parties. They are like weeds that cannot be burned out. They grow again with the spring breeze. At worst, we can just catch them slowly later.
He said very decisively: "Don't worry, I will release him immediately."
After all, Terauchi Shouichi was the commanding officer of the North China Front, so he still had to pay attention to the impact. It was inconvenient for him to personally order this matter, so as not to be caught by Zheng's enemies.
He turned to his adjutant and said, "Go and handle this matter."
His adjutant was an extremely shrewd person. He naturally knew how to handle this matter, and immediately said: "Don't worry, Mr. Siring, I will definitely handle this matter well."
The adjutant immediately came to the military police headquarters, met with Commander Matsuda, told him about Sangmu Kenichi, and asked him to release him and keep the matter strictly confidential.
Matsuda was a very tactful person, and of course he would not let go of this opportunity to please Juichi Terauchi, saying: "Please tell Mr. Siring that I will definitely handle this matter."
Soon after, Matsuda arranged for the head of the Special High School Section to bring the arrested members of the Peiping underground party to the suburbs and replace Sangmu Jianyi.
After returning, he lied and claimed that he had been attacked by the Eighth Route Army on the road. He had no choice but to execute the underground party members on the spot, and the matter was hastily closed.
The Peiping underground party was very grateful to Xu Dalong and others, and specially sent a telegram to the superiors of the Eighth Route Army, requesting credit for Xu Dalong and others.
For Xu Dalong, he has performed meritorious service countless times. The medal for meritorious service cannot be contained in a box, so he does not care too much about it. However, because he lost 300,000 yuan, he felt a little uncomfortable.
This is how people are. If they had not met Sangmu Jianyi beforehand, Xu Dalong and others would not have thought about the 300,000 yuan. But originally the 300,000 yuan could have been obtained, but something like this happened, giving the impression that the money already received was gone. Although everyone thinks that saving people is the most important and necessary, but the 300,000 yuan that was clearly in their pockets is just gone, everyone must still feel a little unhappy.
Of course Yang Zhanxiong, the captain of the hoe room, could understand the mood of Xu Dalong and others. He said sheepishly: "Captain Xu, there are many Japs in Beiping. Many of them are very rich. We can provide relevant information." . If it doesn’t work, just do him a few more votes to make up for the losses this time.”
Xu Dalong, Li Changshui, Wei Monk and Li Qiulin all have the same idea, and they will definitely not give up.
After some discussion, everyone decided to get rid of the big man Guo Papi first. Of course, it's not just as simple as killing him, you must squeeze a lot of money out of him.
After discussion, it was decided to leave the execution of this mission to Li Qiulin's special forces team.
Xu Dalong and Monk Wei also wanted to go into the city, so they entered the city accompanied by Yang Zhanxiong.
After Xu Dalong, Wei Monk, Li Qiulin and others entered the city, they first came to a liaison station of the underground party. Then Xu Dalong and Wei Monk, accompanied by Yang Zhanxiong, came to the Yonghua Trading Company, where the underground party organs are located in Peiping.
Xu Dalong is famous, and the underground party workers in Peiping have long been famous for him. When they heard that he came to Peiping again this time, they all looked forward to meeting him.
Now that Xu Dalong himself has arrived, people working in the agency have gathered around him, looking curiously at this legendary hero of the Eighth Route Army.
Xu Dalong's attitude was very friendly, shaking hands with everyone and greeting each other. When everyone saw that Xu Dalong was so young and had achieved so many impressive achievements, they all felt unbelievable and admired him very much. Seeing how approachable he was made me even more fond of him.
The head of the Peiping underground party met with Xu Dalong. For safety reasons, he could not go out to greet them, so he bought some food and wine and hosted a banquet for Xu Dalong and Monk Wei in the trading company.
The rescued leader of the Peiping underground party said gratefully: "Brother Dalong, this time I fell into the hands of the Japanese. I originally thought that the revolution was over, and I was about to report to the great Marx. Who would have thought that you would When I came to Peiping, they rescued me very easily and allowed me to continue working for the revolution. It was like a dream. I would like to express my heartfelt thanks to you on my own behalf!"
After saying that, he picked up a full glass of wine, raised it, and then said: "Brother Dalong, thank you so much. I'd like to propose a toast to you. Do it first." After that, he drank the wine in the glass. And done.
The person in charge of the underground party said with concern: "Lao Li, you are injured, drink less."
The leader of the underground party, known as Lao Li, said nonchalantly: "It doesn't matter, I must offer Brother Dalong three glasses of wine in a row. Otherwise, I will feel uneasy."
He also meant what he said. He also heard that Xu Dalong and the others could get back 300,000 oceans in exchange for capturing Sangmu Jianyi. That was a full 300,000 oceans, a huge sum of money. But in order to save himself, he gave up decisively, which made him extremely grateful.
The person in charge of the Peiping underground party was also very emotional and felt that he owed Xu Dalong a favor. Although everyone is from the underground party, after all, different units have different interests, so he is a little embarrassed to ask people to make such huge sacrifices.
He also raised a glass of wine, expressed his gratitude to Xu Dalong, and then said: "Brother Dalong, I heard that you are going to search for Japanese and puppet assets in Beiping City and raise funds. We, the underground party in Beiping, will definitely cooperate with us."
After the reception banquet, the leader of the Peking underground party and Lao Li had a heart-to-heart talk with Xu Dalong, which enhanced their mutual understanding and deepened their friendship.
Before the conversation, in their minds, Xu Dalong was just a brave general who was good at fighting. After the conversation, they found that Xu Dalong was knowledgeable, and his knowledge and personality far exceeded their imagination.
After learning about Xu Dalong's background, they were all very puzzled. They didn't understand where an ordinary person from a mountain village got such extraordinary cultivation.
Soon after, Xu Dalong and Wei Monk followed Yang Zhanxiong back to the liaison station where Li Qiulin and the others were, and began to study an action plan to eradicate Guo Bapi from the Han Dynasty.
In order to train Li Qiulin's comprehensive ability, Xu Dalong told Li Qiulin before going to the underground party organization in Peiping that this time the action plan would be formulated by Li Qiulin himself.
After Xu Dalong and others left, Li Qiulin discussed with the people from the Hoe Team and formulated an action plan.
Seeing that Xu Dalong was back, Li Qiulin reported the action plan he had formulated to Xu Dalong.
After listening to the report, Xu Dalong felt that the problem was not big, expressed his approval, and agreed with him to implement the plan.
Guo Daming is cunning and has basically no bad habits. He is cunning and unpredictable. Once he goes out, he is surrounded by many guards. It is not easy to get rid of him.
According to the information provided by the underground party, Li Qiulin and others discovered a weakness of Guo Daming, which was his youngest son.
Guo Daming's younger son was born to his second wife, and he also had an older son, born to his eldest wife. However, that son was born with some disabilities and had a very weird personality. Guo Daming disliked him very much. His youngest son was born smart and sweet, and he was very popular with Guo Daming. Guo Daming loved him so much that he was afraid of falling when he held it in his hands, and he was afraid of melting when he held it in his mouth. This younger son has become his fatal shortcoming.
Courtyard No. 4, Huayuan Street is the location of Beiping City Zhengtang Government Primary School. Most of the children of the Municipal Zhengtang Government staff attend this school. After several days of tracking and surveillance, Li Qiulin and others discovered that a silver-gray car sent Guo Daming's son to school every morning. There was a woman in the car who was the child's mother, and there were two fake policemen accompanying him. Every day at 4:30 pm, this car will drive over to pick up the children.
There are two fake police officers standing guard at the entrance of this school and they cannot enter the school. If the child inside was not picked up by his family, there would be no way to pick him up from school.
After research, Li Qiulin and others decided to make a fuss about the car used to pick up and drop off their children. The route of the vehicle picking up the children was fixed. They planned to intercept the vehicle on the road, kidnap Guo Daming's son, and then lure Guo Daming to show up.
At 4:30 that afternoon, the silver-gray car arrived at the school gate on time. A woman in a coquettish dress got out of the car, as well as the two fake policemen carrying rifles.
The school door opened and the children poured out. The charming woman reached out and grabbed the child, and then put him into the car. Soon she and the two fake police officers also got into the car, and the car left.
Huayuan Street is a small street with a relatively narrow road, so vehicles will slow down when passing traffic.
The silver-gray car was driving forward, and a box truck drove up in front of it. The silver-gray car had to slow down. Just when the two vehicles were about to cross, the van in front suddenly stopped on the road. The car was parked a little incorrectly. Although the front of the car was tilted to the side of the road, most of the rear of the car was still in the middle of the road. It was impossible for the silver-gray car to drive past.
Two people got off the van and opened the hood of the front to check the fault.
The passenger door of the dark gray car opened, and a fake policeman got out. He walked up and scolded dissatisfiedly: "What's going on with you? Why did you park the car here?"
The man wearing a cap and looking like a driver said with a smile: "I'm really sorry, the car broke down and broke down."
The fake policeman asked: "When will it be repaired?"
The peaked hat said: "It will be fixed soon."
The fake policeman asked impatiently: "How soon is soon? How long will it take?"
The peaked hat said: "It's hard to say, maybe a few minutes, maybe a little longer."
At this time, the car door at the back also opened, and another fake policeman also got out of the car. He shouted to the fake policeman in front: "Li Shun, Madam asked you to get in the car. Let's find another way."
The fake policeman in front of the truck heard the shouting and turned around, preparing to return to the vehicle.
At this moment, two people suddenly rushed out from the alley on the side of the road and pounced on the fake policeman standing next to the car. Before he could react, a dagger had already pierced his back.
The fake policeman in front of the truck was startled and reached for his gun. The peaked hat who was repairing the car picked up a huge wrench and hit him hard on the head.
After getting rid of the two fake policemen, the two special forces members suddenly opened the door of the car's cab, grabbed the driver's collar, pulled him out, and gave him a knife, killing him.
Then the two got into the silver-gray car, turned the car around, and drove away quickly. At the same time, the van also left the scene.
The silver-gray car drove away from Huayuan Street, turned two turns in a row, and saw a military truck with the license plate of the Japanese North China Front Command parked on the roadside in front of it. The car was parked behind it, with two wheels on the car. The man put the already bundled woman and child into the truck, and the truck quickly drove towards the suburbs.
Two fake policemen and a driver died on the streets of Fa Yuen Street, which immediately caused riots. Not long after, fake policemen came over. Someone recognized the fake policemen who died on the street and knew that they were Guo Daming's personal followers. They hurriedly called and reported to Guo Daming.
Guo Daming was startled. He was so anxious that he quickly notified his men to find the whereabouts of his silver-gray car. He knew that his wife and children had been kidnapped. Based on his experience, he was worried that his wife and children would be sent out of the city.
He wanted to order the city gates to be sealed, but unfortunately he was only a small police chief at the district level. Things like closing the city gates had to be approved by the Japanese military police headquarters. When he begged his grandfather to sue his grandmother and relied on many connections, the military police headquarters ordered the temporary blockade of the city gate, and that Japanese military truck came to light. He had already left Beiping City.
Guo Daming directed the pseudo-police to search everywhere, and finally found the abandoned silver-gray car, but unfortunately it was empty.
After a lot of trouble, the pseudo-policemen found nothing. It was impossible for the Japanese army to close the city gates of Peiping for a small police chief. Two hours later, the city gates were opened and normal access resumed.
Guo Daming couldn't find any information about the kidnappers, and he couldn't tell who was responsible. He just knew that these people were very skilled and ruthless. Now he can only wait helplessly for the kidnapper to make conditions.
The outskirts of Peking.
Li Qiulin was very thoughtful. During the entire operation, his men wore plain clothes and did not reveal their identities from beginning to end. His purpose was to pretend to be a kidnapper, lure Guo Daming out, and find an opportunity to eliminate him. Of course, this does not prevent this Gou Hanjian from extracting another ransom from him before he dies.
