The Japanese lieutenant and the Japanese soldiers on the truck had been hanging out with Xu Dalong, Li Qiulin and others for so long. The two sides had a very good chat, and the Japanese army actually felt reluctant to leave. After the special forces members got off the truck, the Japanese soldiers stood on the truck and waved to them.
The Japanese lieutenant and these Japanese soldiers did not know that their luck today was so good that it could not be better. Under normal circumstances, the special forces would kill these Japanese troops halfway. Today, they had a lucky star and escaped.
Xu Dalong and others did not seize these vehicles because their direction changed. After arriving at Menggu City, the road ahead continued to the southwest, and Xu Dalong and others turned southeast from here to climb over the mountains and forests to the east to find the road to Kuala Lumpur.
Sakura Road was originally named Wendeng Road. After the Japanese army occupied Kuala Lumpur, most of the streets in the city were changed to Japanese names. There is a four-story western-style building on Sakura Road, where the headquarters of the Malaysian Overseas Chinese Chamber of Commerce is located.
In a suite on the third floor, a very gentle young man wearing glasses walked in. There are two other people in this room, a man and a woman. Seeing the young man walking in, they quickly stood up.
The young man nodded towards them, and the man walked to the wall and moved the cabinet against the wall, revealing a door behind it. After the young man walked in, the man moved the cabinet back to its original position, then took out a pistol with the young woman, went to the outside of the suite, and vigilantly checked the situation in the corridor.
Behind the secret door is a secret room of less than 10 square meters, which contains a bed, a pair of sofas and a coffee table. Sitting on the sofa was an elderly man about 60 years old with some gray hair. He is of medium height, slightly overweight, and dressed in ordinary clothes, but he naturally exudes the majesty of someone who has been in a position of power for a long time. He is Mr. Chen, the president of the Nanyang Chinese Anti-Japanese Support Association.
The young man wearing glasses is named Chen Xiuwen. He is Mr. Chen’s distant nephew and Mr. Chen’s secretary.
Chen Xiuwen said: "There is a call from the underground party in northern Shaanxi. They have sent an experienced special forces team to Malaysia. They will cross the sea to Singapore in the next two days. They will escort you to northern Shaanxi."
Mr. Chen nodded and said: "It seems that the batch of materials raised by the support association in Singapore cannot be sent back to China. You can quickly turn it into gold and we will take the money to northern Shaanxi. This will be much more convenient." "
Chen Xiuwen said: "Uncle, please don't worry. I have already ordered people to do this. I have already found a buyer. The batch of materials can be sold no later than the day after tomorrow."
Mr. Chen said with some regret: "There is a shortage of supplies in China, especially in northern Shaanxi. What they need most is supplies. Unfortunately, we have no way to send this batch of supplies back."
Chen Xiuwen comforted him and said: "You have done enough for the domestic war of resistance, and they can understand it."
Mr. Chen shook his head and said: "I understand, but I still feel a little regretful that I was not able to personally deliver the urgently needed supplies in the country."
Chen Xiuwen said: "The people from the underground party who are here to pick you up will be here soon. Is there anything else you want to explain before leaving? I'll do it right away."
Mr. Chen shook his head and said: "There is nothing to prepare. We will leave as soon as the people who pick us up arrive. I have heard that the scenery in northern Shaanxi is unique, and I have long wanted to go and admire it. I hope it will be like the legend, a brand new atmosphere.”
Chen Xiuwen stood up to say goodbye and knocked on the cabinet a few times with his hand. The cabinet was quickly moved away. He walked to the outside of the suite and was about to go out when he was stopped by the man and woman.
The woman said: "Secretary Chen, Kitajima Nobunaga, the commander of the Japanese military police headquarters in Singapore, has just arrived at the Chinese Chamber of Commerce. President Zhao is receiving them. It is not convenient for you to go out now."
After hearing this, Chen Xiuwen frowned and said, "The islanders are pushing too hard. It's best not to have any unexpected changes happen."
In the reception room on the first floor of the Chinese Business Association, President Huo of the Singapore Chinese Business Association was talking with two Japanese officers.
Kitajima Nobu, who was sitting opposite him, was short and short and fat, like a meat ball. Don't underestimate his figure, but he has an air of elegance about him. He is 51 years old. He once received a doctorate from Tokyo University of Science and Technology and speaks fluent Chinese.
He said: "President Huo, in order to establish the Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere, Huang Jun came to Singapore and is very friendly to your Chinese Chamber of Commerce. I hope you will cooperate closely with Huang Jun and work together for the prosperity and stability of Singapore."
The Chinese Chamber of Commerce has a great influence in Singapore. After the Japanese army occupied Singapore, they also needed to rely on the power of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce to maintain the stability of Singapore. This is the second time Kitajima Nobunaga has come to Chairman Huo, asking the Chinese Chamber of Commerce to change its name to the Japan-China Friendship Business Promotion Association to provide help for the Japanese military's strategy against Singapore.
President Huo said with some embarrassment: "Your Excellency, Commander, I also hope to maintain the stability of Singapore. But I alone cannot say this. As you know, our Singapore Chinese Business Association is a branch of the Nanyang Chinese Business Association. Organization, we need to seek the opinion of Mr. Chen of the Nanyang Chinese Chamber of Commerce on this matter. Now that Mr. Chen is missing, we dare not make any arbitrary claims, and we ask for your forgiveness, Commander."
Bei Dao knew that Chairman Huo was trying to shirk the situation, and he had no plans to fall out with the Chinese Business Association for the time being. At least for now, the Chinese Business Federation still played a certain role in maintaining the stability of Singapore. He expressed his understanding of President Huo's words, and after chatting for a few more words, he said goodbye and left.
After Bei Dao got into the car parked outside, he said to the Japanese lieutenant colonel who was following him: "Yamada-kun, the Nanyang Chinese Chamber of Commerce has provided financial and material support to the anti-Japanese elements in China. It is already openly opposing the island country. We must We need to find their President Chen and force him to submit."
The Japanese Lieutenant Colonel named Ichiro Yamada was the section chief of the Special Higher Education Section of the Japanese Military Police Headquarters in Singapore. He said: "Your Excellency, Commander, I have received the news that President Chen of the Nanyang Chinese Chamber of Commerce is now hiding in Singapore. I have A large number of informants were deployed to monitor them secretly. Once his hiding place was discovered, he was immediately detained."
Bei Dao nodded and said: "I'll leave this matter to you. This person must not be allowed to leave Singapore. Once his traces are discovered, he should be firmly controlled, preferably alive. Huang Jun will use his influence To control the entire Chinese business community in Nanyang. This is what Commander Yamashita Fengwen specially ordered."
The Yamashita Tomobumi mentioned by Bei Dao was the commander of the 25th Japanese Army known as the "Malay Tiger". After the outbreak of the Pacific War, he led the Japanese army to sweep the British and American coalition forces in Singapore, Malaysia, the Philippines and other places, with a very dazzling record. Earned the title of "Malay Tiger".
Yamashita Fengfumi is indeed a figure. He is not only a brilliant military strategist, but also unique in political governance, economy, culture and other aspects. Unlike most Japanese generals who only believed in force, he advocated using China to govern China, and in Nanyang and other places he advocated using local people to strengthen local management and maintain public security. He was well aware of the influence of the Chinese Entrepreneurs Association in the Nanyang region, so he made a special request to capture Mr. Chen.
Although Yamada does not know the specific whereabouts of Mr. Chen, the Singapore Chinese Business Association is one of his key targets. He has deployed a large number of spies around to secretly monitor the Chinese Chamber of Commerce. It is very difficult for Mr. Chen to open the Chinese Chamber of Commerce.
Xu Dalong and others arrived in Kuala Lumpur. The first thing they had to do was to cross the Denver Strait and enter Singapore. The Denver Strait was blocked by the Japanese Navy and Coast Guard, making it difficult to cross the Denver Strait. Even if Mr. Chen can be picked up safely, the task of escorting him across the Denver Strait will be very difficult.
There are many problems facing Xu Dalong and others. If there is a problem in any link, the rescue mission will fail. If Mr. Chen is exposed or even killed due to the actions of Xu Dalong and others, it will have a great impact on the credibility of the underground party.
Precisely because the task is so difficult, this is the main reason why the comrade in charge named Xu Dalong to be responsible for this matter.
Xu Dalong and others disguised themselves as Japanese soldiers, sometimes on foot, sometimes by car, and sometimes by hiring local people's vehicles. They arrived in Kuala Lumpur relatively smoothly along the way. As they walked, they learned the numbers of the local Japanese military garrison in Kuala Lumpur, so that Wang Jinke could forge Japanese military documents.
But in Malaysia, neither the underground party nor the military could provide them with intelligence, and they could not contact their own guerrillas. It could be said that they were in the dark.
So Xu Dalong contacted northern Shaanxi to find a way to directly contact the radio station controlled by Mr. Chen, and sent the telegram to Mr. Chen. As a result, after the telegram was sent, there was no reply. Xu Dalong once again sent a telegram to northern Shaanxi to inquire about the situation. The reply from Northern Shaanxi was that they could not contact Mr. Chen now. They just sent the street address and street code in Singapore that Mr. Chen left in the previous telegram to Xu Dalong, allowing Xu Dalong to find a solution on his own.
Why did the radio station controlled by Mr. Chen suddenly lose contact? It turns out that Yamada, the head of the Japanese Military Special High School Section, had always suspected that Mr. Chen was hiding in Singapore. If this is true, then his hiding place must be related to people from the Chinese Chamber of Commerce.
In order to further control the Chinese Chamber of Commerce, he suggested that the North Island Commander should control the Chinese Chamber of Commerce's external communications. After the Japanese army occupied Singapore, they controlled the radio stations very strictly.
The Chinese Chamber of Commerce has its own commercial radio station, and it is difficult for the Japanese army to interfere. Currently, the Japanese and puppets are forcing the Chinese Chamber of Commerce to cooperate with the Japanese army. It is necessary to control the use of their radio stations, not only to understand their activities, but also to prevent Mr. Chen from escaping. Singapore.
Bei Dao thought this suggestion was good and agreed to Yamada's request. Yamada asked the Chinese Chamber of Commerce to hand over his civilian radio station, claiming that it was temporarily being kept for them.
The Chinese Chamber of Commerce will send business transactions or other telegrams to the Post and Telecommunications Bureau for sending and receiving, but they must be inspected by the Japanese side.
This really put the Chinese Chamber of Commerce's external communications under control. Although Mr. Chen also carried a private radio, he knew very well that the Japanese army had implemented strict monitoring of the Chinese Chamber of Commerce. All he had to do was send a report. , the Japanese army would be able to accurately detect it, and he would be exposed.
In this way, Mr. Chen also temporarily lost communication with northern Shaanxi and Xu Dalong, and could only wait for the rescuers to come to his door.
Xu Dalong could not contact Mr. Chen, and he was not clear about the situation in Singapore, so they stopped when they arrived at Songkan Town, 455 kilometers away from Kuala Lumpur.
They had to find out where the Japanese troops were stationed in Singapore and Kuala Lumpur, as well as the troop numbers, and then select the surname and place for forgery by Wang Jinke based on samples of their documents. Otherwise, it will be easy to reveal the secret.
There was no Japanese garrison in Dongkan Town, so Xu Dalong and others found a hotel to stay in, and took turns sending people on the road leading to Kuala Lumpur to find the target.
On the afternoon of the second day after Xu Dalong and others moved into Dongkan Town, a squad leader of the special operations team led several special operations team members to stop a Japanese motorcycle on the road, killed the soldiers on the motorcycle, and captured A Japanese lieutenant communications staff officer. By interrogating the prisoner and looking at the documents he carried, he basically understood the situation of Japanese troops stationed in places such as Singapore and Kuala Lumpur.
The Japanese garrison in Singapore was the 3rd Division, and the Japanese garrison in Kuala Lumpur was the 18th Division. Wang Jinke imitated the officer ID of the communications staff and the captured Japanese soldier ID, and forged the 3rd Division and the 18th Division respectively. of documents.
After completing these preparations, Xu Dalong and others took a Japanese army vehicle on the highway and entered Kuala Lumpur smoothly.
After Xu Dalong and others entered the city, they first found a hotel to stay in, and then sent a squad leader of the special operations team with a team member to meet with a local overseas Chinese at the meeting point provided by the direction of northern Shaanxi.
After arriving at the agreed location, the squad leader mixed in with the crowd and cautiously walked to the meeting point. Another special operations team member hid 150 meters away, observing the squad leader's situation.
The agreed place was a photo studio. The squad leader did not go in directly. Instead, he went to a tea shop across the road and pretended to buy tea while paying attention to the activities in the photo studio.
He observed for more than ten minutes and found nothing unusual, but he still did not cross the road directly, but continued walking along the street. He turned around in a circle before crossing the road and heading towards the photo studio.
The monitor entered the photo studio. He saw the photographer taking pictures of a pair of young people. A clerk in the store came up to him, greeted him warmly, and asked him what kind of photos he wanted to take.
The squad leader replied that he wanted to take a ID photo and wanted to take a look at the photo album here to verify the photography skills here.
