After leaving the old Sunday supplies store, Mu Mu visited many stores along the way.
After visiting the store, we walked around some schools and looked around. It was not until late in the evening that we returned to the American Concession Hotel.
After returning to the hotel, Mu Mu immediately took out the paper and pen he had prepared and quickly drew a simple map based on the memory in his mind.
Among them, three locations were marked by circles, which were the residences of Professors Zhao Guo, Qian Xuezhong, and Chen Dong according to the information provided by Zhou Jianren.
Among the three professors, Professor Zhao Guo is a well-known educator in the academic world.
Professors Qian Xuezhong and Chen Dong are scientific research experts behind some large local factories controlled by the Japanese army.
The Japanese have always used and guarded against the three professors.
This is also the biggest headache for underground party comrades in Tianjin. It is not easy to successfully rescue these experts to avoid exposure.
That's why the headquarters sent Kong Jie's assault team.
In the evening, the team members returned to the hotel one by one.
Kong Jie also had a good chat with John. After continuing to discuss various subsequent business cooperation matters, he returned to the hotel.
After dinner, the team members secretly gathered in a room, leaving soldiers smoking in the corridor as a warning.
After everyone sat down, Kong Jie said: "First of all, let me talk about the first priority of coming here. Mu Mu, tell me about the situation on your side."
"yes!"
Mu Mu responded and replied: "I have successfully met with Comrade Lao Zhou, and obtained from Comrade Lao Zhou the specific information and list of experts and representatives we need to escort this time."
With that said, Mu Mu reported the specific situation to Kong Jie, and then took out the map he had drawn early in the morning.
"Captain, the three places I marked with circles are the residences where three professors, Zhao Guo, Qian Xuezhong and Chen Dong, currently live. I have conducted reconnaissance in the vicinity and found that these residences have been blocked by Japanese guards. Surveillance around the clock.”
Ye Min said: "Captain, it seems that completing the escort mission this time is not as simple as we thought!"
Kong Jie smiled and said: "If it were really simple, the brigade commander wouldn't have found our commando team."
After thinking for a moment, Kong Jie said: "If you want to successfully complete the task this time, 90% of the focus needs to be on advance preparation and planning."
"The action of secretly transferring experts, professors and overseas Chinese representatives is not in a hurry for the time being. In order to avoid the exposure of experts, professors and overseas Chinese representatives, we should not rush to contact them."
"In this way, we make preparations first, and we must make all preparations as appropriate and precise as possible."
"Mu Mu, you lead the team to keep a close eye on the three professors here, and understand the specific defense situation of the Japanese army thoroughly.
When will the three professors be in the residence every day, and where in the residence will they be?
When is the best time for us to save people?
I understand all of this clearly. Once we take action, we will have no way out. All parties must act at the same time. If any link goes wrong, we will not be able to successfully complete all transfer tasks. "
"Yes!" Mu Mu responded.
After finishing talking about the business, Kong Jie changed the topic and looked at Ye Min: "How is the specific investigation of the bank?"
"Captain, our multiple teams attacked separately. After most of the day's investigation, we have roughly investigated the four larger Japanese-controlled banks in the surrounding area."
“Maps of surrounding streets are also being drawn.”
Ye Min said with a bit of bitterness on his face, "The situation of the bank is as you guessed, leader. Compared with the banks in Yangquan area, the safes of the banks here are simply amazing. They are basically all made of steel. We I have secretly observed those bank personnel, and if they want to open the safe, they need both the key and the password, so it won’t be too much trouble.”
"But one good thing is that because the insurance system of the bank here is relatively strong, there are very few troops stationed there."
"In addition, there is a large flow of funds in the banks here. We noticed that cash trucks would transport banknotes in the evening, so if we rashly attack during non-business hours, even if we succeed, we probably won't be able to grab much cash."
"Has the location of the vault been determined?" Kong Jie asked.
"About two treasuries have been identified." Ye Min said.
Kong Jie said: "There is too little oil and water in the bank. The old rule is to rob the vault first. All good things are hidden in the vault!"
"As for the safe in the vault, I will try to get some flame cutting machines here so that it can be opened easily."
"Besides, we have a small number of people. If we only rely on manpower, I'm afraid we won't be able to take away much cash, let alone gold and silver."
"We have to find a way to get a few black cars first, and then use the vehicles to transport cash."
"Before taking action, everyone should conduct field practice. In addition to not actually robbing the bank, you must experience the streets you need to drive through during the action and the specific conditions of the streets to ensure that the action is foolproof."
"When taking specific actions, how much time should be controlled, where should be responsible for blocking, where should be responsible for guarding, how to choose the evacuation route, how many sets of plans should be prepared, when to abandon the vehicle, and when to grab the enemy Cash is transferred, hidden, etc.”
“After all this is completed, I want to see a complete and practical plan.”
Ye Min responded: "Yes, commander, please rest assured that the commando team will complete the mission!"
"By the way, Captain, the police station is located in the middle of these two vaults. According to our manpower, it may be impossible to capture both vaults at the same time. I suggest we follow our usual approach and attack in the east and attack in the west."
Kong Jie nodded and said: "I said, you are still fully responsible for the command this time."
"I still say that perfect success cannot be separated from adequate preparation."
“Don’t leave behind everything you can prepare before taking action.”
"I don't care what the specific process is. The result I want is to successfully complete the armed seizure of the cash flow from the Devil's Bank vault, and all team members must not be exposed, and there must be no casualties among any members."
"Yes -" Ye Min responded.
Then Kong Jie led the team members to discuss the specific action process in detail.
After all the discussions were almost completed, Ye Min suddenly asked: "Captain, according to our plan, after we successfully capture the cash flow with arms, we will also start to cooperate with some factories in the American concession and with that American John, but we are here." Can you hide the goings-on on the side from that American?"
Kong Jie laughed and said: "If the Americans had this ability, they would have done this kind of thing themselves."
"We took the risk and robbed the money, and finally gave it to the Americans. This guy John will never mind the benefit of getting money while sitting there."
"Don't think of Americans as too noble, but don't think of these American businessmen as too dirty. As long as we don't get caught by the devils, and the devils don't hold guns to the heads of Yankees and enter the concessions to search, these things will work. The Yankees who want to get profits have no reason to betray us, and they will even secretly give us a thumbs up."
"It's quite rare for a Yankee to lick a kid's ass."
"After the armed operation to seize the bank's cash flow began, the devil's attention was diverted, and we were able to find an opportunity to rescue the three professors."
"Yes!" Ye Min responded.
…
…
Time continued to pass, and in the following days, the team members continued to act separately.
Ensure as much preparation as possible before the official action begins.
On this trip to the American Concession, in order to perfectly cover up his image as a big businessman, Kong Jie spent a lot of money. In addition to a batch of goods brought from his roots, he also brought a considerable amount of cash.
Legal currency and border tickets will definitely not work here.
So Kong Jie prepared a large number of daily tickets that can be used here, as well as some silver coins.
Americans can take it and exchange it for their favorite dollars at any time in the bank.
The purpose, of course, is to do some business with John and other American businessmen and buy shares in some production factories in the American concession before taking armed action to seize the cash flow of the Japanese bank here.
You can't just rob the bank vault first and then take out the money to do business with others later, right?
This is not to tell the Americans openly that our money was robbed from the devil's banks and vaults.
Five or six days passed in a blink of an eye.
This morning, Kong Jie was visiting a soap production factory with John.
This soap production factory is one of the factories invested by John, who is the major shareholder behind the scenes with 40% of the shares here.
Basically, he is the big boss of this factory.
Kong Jie said that he could also invest in the company and be responsible for the sales of soap in Shanxi Dijie.
John was naturally very happy and was discussing specific cooperation matters with Kong Jie. Suddenly an American hurried over and whispered in John's ear.
John's expression then became quite exciting.
After the two of them had spoken, Kong Jie asked with a smile: "John, what happened? You have a smile on your face."
John smiled and said: "Great fun, breaking news. Just two hours ago, at dawn, a treasury controlled by Little Japan was robbed."
Kong Jie said with surprise on his face: "What about this matter? What happened next?"
John said: "The following is even more exciting. It is said that this group of robbers was small in number, but each one was quite powerful. They suddenly raided the Xixiang Treasury controlled by the Japanese army. More than 20 Japanese guards were killed silently. Big holes were cut into the safe, and the cash and gold and silver inside were looted."
"In the end, it was the explosion of the explosives left by the robbers in the vault that alerted the surrounding Japanese troops, and the little Japanese discovered that the vault had been robbed."
Kong Jie's eyes widened with an incredulous look on his face: "So exaggerated? They robbed the treasury under the eyes of the heavily guarded Japanese army, and the Japanese army didn't even notice. What do these Japanese people do for food?"
John smiled: “Who says it’s not?
But it is strange to say that the banks controlled by Little Japan have always had strong guards, and there has never been a case of a bank or vault being robbed.
This group of robbers is incredible.
I heard that some newspapers have rushed to report the news.
The title of the newspaper was called - Heaven-defying Robbery, a Sensational Robbery Case.
Xu, I have arranged for someone to buy two newspapers and come back. We will have a good look at them then. "
"Okay!" Kong Jie smiled...
