There are two basements in Tang Cheng's residence. One is where food and sundries are usually stored, while the other has been cleaned out by Tang Cheng himself and is now Tang Cheng's private laboratory. When Tang Cheng was playing with the Chinese medicinal materials, he did not deliberately avoid the Edmunds. He even called Edmund several times for help during the experiment, which puzzled Hans who received the report. "I don't know the reason either. Maybe he's not worried that I can understand the reason!"

Edmund took advantage of the opportunity to go out and went to see Hans. Just as he said at the moment, even if he was called by Tang Cheng to help in the basement, he still could not understand what the Chinese medicine powder Tang Cheng was playing with could be used. . Hans felt helpless when he heard this. The theory of traditional Chinese medicine is profound and profound. Not to mention Edmund, who has not been in China for a long time, even he, a China expert who has lived in China for many years, still doesn't know much about traditional Chinese medicine.

"Is he making medicine for the wounded soldiers in the lonely camp?" Hans suddenly thought that he had seen Chinese medicine treating trauma. Unable to find the answer from Edmund, Hans thought he was smart and thought Tang Cheng They are using those Chinese medicinal materials to make wound medicine. At this moment, Tang Cheng was busy in the basement of his residence. He didn't know that Edmund had reported his every move to Hans, and he never expected that Hans actually thought he was making medicine for injuries.

According to the recipe drawn from the system, Tangcheng has ground all the required Chinese medicine into medicinal powder according to the weight. Next, he only needs to mix the medicinal powder together and use the incense making method to make scented toilet yes. However, the people who use the incense in Tangcheng are the White Russian regiments who guard the lone army camp. These Belarusian regiments will not stay in one place or in a closed space. Therefore, Tangcheng still needs to do some small things with the incense created by it at this moment. Small changes.

It was noon two days later when Tang Cheng saw Boss Yu again. Boss Yu's expression still didn't look good. As soon as Tang Cheng appeared, Boss Yu couldn't wait to take Tang Cheng to the warehouse behind. "I have received a reply from the headquarters, which disagrees with your plan to rescue the Lone Army Camp, and the headquarters requires you to immediately take action against the Zodiac Society." Boss Yu was paying attention to Tang Cheng's reaction as he spoke, but he did not respond from Tang Cheng. There was anger or anxiety in Cheng's face.

"You don't have to keep staring at me. In fact, I have already guessed that the headquarters will reply like this. After all, Shanghai is far away from them, and the Lone Army Camp is also far away from them." Tang Cheng's tone was calm, but when he lit his cigarette, His fingers still trembled slightly, showing his inner unrest. "Lao Yu, please reply to the headquarters right away and tell the Zodiac Society that I will deal with it and there will be action soon. As for the Lone Camp, I will also rescue them. I can't watch them being treated like prisoners."

When Tang Cheng mentioned that the officers and soldiers of the Gujun Camp were treated as prisoners, a layer of moisture appeared in Boss Yu's eyes. Boss Yu had been to the Gujun Camp in Jiaozhou Park. The conditions there were better for him than in Tangcheng. clear. "I don't want to dissuade you, but as an older person, I still have to say one more thing. If I were you, I would first put down some things and concentrate on dealing with the Zodiac Society. Once the Zodiac Society's affairs satisfy the superiors, maybe the rescue of the Lone Army Camp There will be a turnaround.”

Boss Yu's words were very tactful, and Tang Cheng also understood that he meant well, but the persistence in Tang Cheng's heart would not change with just one or two words. "Lao Yu, thank you for your reminder, but I think there are always some fools in this world who like to do things that others dare not do. Maybe I am one of those fools, because I can't bear to be treated like a prisoner by the British in the lonely camp. The same thing, locked up inside a barbed wire fence."

Seeing that Tang Cheng was getting excited, Boss Yu wanted to speak, but Tang Cheng grabbed the front of his shirt and shouted in a low voice. "Lao Yu, they are all heroes. Heroes should not be locked up in barbed wire. This is Chinese land, and Chinese heroes should not be humiliated by those vulgar and rude White Russians. Therefore, I must rescue them and give them to They return to the battlefield that belongs to them." Boss Yu, whose face was red, looked at Tang Cheng stupidly, because Tang Cheng's eyes were full of water vapor at this moment.

"I don't know what the bosses above are thinking, and I don't understand why the Shanghai Station hasn't designated a targeted rescue plan. I don't want to know. Now that I'm in Shanghai, I need to do something. Things they don't dare to do. As for what you said before, the higher-ups disagree, the bullshit higher-ups, the bullshit higher-ups disagree, I'm not from your intelligence department, so what if I disobeyed the so-called orders from above! I don't care, sir. !”

It was only at this moment that Boss Yu learned from Tang Cheng's angry words that the young man in front of him was not from the Intelligence Department. "My late father was once one of you. More than a year ago, he was shot and died while chasing Japanese spies. I am the only son in the family. Whether it is according to military law or the provisions of the intelligence service, I will not be recruited. But I still came to Shanghai because I wanted to do something for this country, just like I insisted on rescuing the Lone Camp, just to let people in this country know that there is hope and that the country has not forgotten them."

Under Boss Yu's questioning, Tang Cheng did not hide his life experience. Knowing that Tang Cheng was the descendant of the martyrs of the Intelligence Service, Boss Yu didn't have too many scruples when he spoke again. "I have been running this teahouse in Shanghai since I joined the Intelligence Service. Half of the income from the teahouse is used for the expenses of the Shanghai station, and the remaining half is used by me to maintain this contact point. I don't know what you are doing. What do you want to do, but what weapons and equipment do you need? Just ask and I will figure it out."

When Tang Cheng saw Boss Yu for the first time, he only thought that this guy with a straight face was difficult to talk to. He just didn't expect that Boss Yu would also be impulsive and desperate. But now that Boss Yu has spoken, Tang Cheng I have no intention of being polite anymore. "What? A hardware processing factory? You want to make something small by yourself! Then I have to think about it carefully. There are many young and old in the concession in a small factory like the one you mentioned." Boss Yu is planning to risk everything. , I didn’t expect Tangcheng to ask for help. I just introduced a small hardware factory that can process things by myself.

There are many small factories in the concession with only one or two lathes, especially some repair shops, which also have lathes. Boss Yu is originally from Shanghai and has lived in the concession for many years. After thinking about it for a while, he came up with a good place. "I know a Swede who has been in Shanghai for seven or eight years. He originally came to Shanghai to sell Swedish lathes, but he accidentally lost the goods. Later, he used the unsold lathes to open a business in the concession. A factory that processes small hardware, and now his son, Little York, is managing the factory."

Following Boss Yu to this small factory run by a Swede, Tang Cheng found that the lathes inside were indeed Swedish, and the lathes were well maintained, which was much beyond his expectations. "No problem, the processing volume in the factory during this period is not very large. I can extend the lunch break by an hour. You can use these lathes and tools when you come here at noon every day." Little York, who manages the factory, is very talkative. It was the remuneration given by Tangcheng that satisfied Little York.

"What on earth are you going to do? There are a lot of workers here. You might as well leave it to them and save yourself from having to come here every day." Boss Yu, who didn't know the inside story, was concerned about Tang Cheng's plan to take action personally. He was very puzzled, but no matter how much he tried to persuade him, Tang Cheng still refused to change his decision, because he didn't want anyone to think of himself or Boss Yu from those little bits and pieces afterwards.

"Don't worry about these things. You should help me contact the person in charge of the condolence group in the concession. I want to meet with them as soon as possible to discuss the plan." We have to consider the rescue plan, deal with the Zodiac Society, and Tangcheng also Take the time to make the little bits and pieces you need. Tang Cheng, who was completely short of time, could only leave some things to Boss Yu for help, because the opportunity he needed was getting closer and closer.

At present, the Japanese army has been seriously ill and is gathering together, planning to go south to capture the capital Nanjing, intending to use this to collapse the resistance of the Kuomintang. Tangcheng knew that the Nationalists, who on the surface wanted to actively resist in Nanjing, would eventually abandon the capital Nanjing and the hundreds of thousands of people and defeated troops in the city for various reasons. He knew that his own personal strength alone was not enough to change this situation, but Tang Cheng, who was in Shanghai, had no intention of making things easier for the Japanese troops in Shanghai.

According to the consistent nature of the Japanese, when the news that the Japanese army finally captured Nanjing came to Shanghai, the Japanese expatriates living in Shanghai and the Japanese army controlling Shanghai would definitely celebrate wildly. Tang Cheng planned to rescue the lone army camp trapped in Jiaozhou Park and leave Shanghai at this time, while causing trouble while the Japanese were celebrating. Therefore, in order to leave the lone army camp in Shanghai, it would attract the attention of the Japanese army in Shanghai, and at the same time let the Japanese know that the Chinese would not surrender.

In the next few days, Tang Cheng began to follow his own plan, going back and forth between his residence and Little York's factory step by step. At night, Tang Cheng appeared around some gangster casinos and opium dens, waiting for his move. the best time. Hans, who was secretly monitoring Tang Cheng, found no strange behavior in the reports he received in the past few days. Edmund reported that Tang Cheng went to the Swedish factory and only used machinery to process two knives.

Now that it was already the Communist era, it was difficult for Hans to understand why Tang Cheng still had a soft spot to process the knives himself, because he didn't know that every time the small pieces Tang Cheng processed in the factory, It had been kept in the carry-on equipment bag, and Edmund had never seen those things at all.
