Shibuya Saburo's call back was quick.
But the message shocked Zhou Sen and Anna.
Because what Shibuya Saburo returned was the "sixteen-petal eight-fold chrysanthemum pattern", which is a decoration that can only be used by the Japanese royal family.
Is it possible that Ando Shenghou is a descendant of the royal family?
This is a big joke, and it can also explain why Shibuya Saburo sent him such a rescue mission. Once the identity of this royal child is discovered, the other party will definitely make a big fuss, and the royal family will lose face. .
As long as he could be rescued secretly, even if Su Fang knew about it afterwards, he would not publicize such a shameful thing.
I don’t mention this matter, and you don’t mention it either. We all understand it tacitly, and it’s over.
Saburo Shibuya is an enthusiastic supporter and implementer of the "Northern Advance" strategy. Now that the "Northern Advance" strategy has been frustrated, anyone who supports the "Northern Advance" will be suppressed to a certain extent. I'm afraid Shibuya Saburo is also under a lot of pressure. .
If it were an ordinary aristocratic family emblem, it is estimated that the Soviet Russian intelligence agency would not be able to grasp and recognize it, but it is impossible to say that they do not recognize this symbol of the Japanese royal family.
Moreover, I am afraid that all the Japanese officers who were captured by the Japanese army would be able to recognize them...
Isn't this difficult for him?
Zhou Sen had a huge headache, and his acting had to be more realistic. When the time came, he would definitely give a detailed report when he got back.
If you can't hide it from Shibuya Saburo, then there is no point in doing this.
"In this way, we put the logo inside the clothes. Only when we meet people with the same physical characteristics, we will quietly let them see it, and try to let people who do not meet the target see it." Zhou Sen said.
"It's very risky to do this. If you are discovered..."
"If we are lucky and the first target we find that matches the characteristics is Captain Ando, we will not be discovered."
"Um."
"Let's adapt accordingly. If we can't contact the person, we can only think of another way." Zhou Sen said.
A night without words.
Zhou Sen knew that if everything went well this time, he would be able to return to Ice City soon. If he could return before winter, everything would be perfect.
His heart warmed up at the thought of being able to go home. This time when he went back, he must take down Bai Yulan completely.
After such a long time, it’s time to get to that point.
…
Naturally, the prisoner-of-war camp cannot be located in the center of the city. It must be a place where ordinary people will not go. This will also facilitate management and prevent the secrets of the prisoner-of-war camp from being leaked.
Of course, transportation facilities still need to be available, otherwise, how to transport materials and other things in will be similar to what Zhou Sen and the others had specially trained.
A valley was surrounded by barbed wire and minefields were laid out.
This was enough to ensure that the Japanese prisoners of war who were escorted here did not dare to act rashly, otherwise, they would be killed by the bomb.
You may also feed the wild beasts in the forest. You must know that except for cities and nearby villages, most of the rest are inaccessible virgin forests, where wild beasts and poisonous insects are infested. Not only tigers, leopards, jackals, and various terrible poisonous snakes and insects live here. plant.
The most important thing is that even if you can escape from the prisoner of war camp, you probably won't be able to reach the border. The cold and hunger are enough to defeat a person.
Food is rationed, and there are only two meals a day, which can basically sustain the consumption for a whole day. You will not starve to death, but you will not be full.
This is a common practice around the world. If you are full, wouldn’t you be motivated to escape?
Pumpkin soup, cabbage soup, potatoes, and rye bread, sometimes some pickles...
This is the food of the prisoners of war. There is no meat or meat at all.
The prisoners of war who arrived here were all in relatively good condition, and some died before reaching the prisoner of war camp, which is a tragedy. (It is indeed difficult to capture Japanese prisoners in the Guanci Civil War, but there are records of the Soviet army capturing Japanese prisoners. I checked the information and found that after the truce of the Halaha River conflict, the Japanese and the Soviet Union exchanged prisoners. This shows that both sides They captured each other and became prisoners of war. There were also captured junior Japanese officers who were exchanged and persuaded to commit suicide by seppuku. This is all supported by historical data.)
Zhou Sen and Anna gathered at Lenin Square early in the morning and were uniformly distributed with white coats, masks and other items.
After all, we were going to a prisoner of war camp, and the environment there was certainly not comparable to that in the city.
A Soviet border defense major led the team. There were many people in the team who knew Zhou Sen, including doctors from the First Hospital and other doctors and nurses recruited from other aid stations.
The older one's beard and hair are all white, while the younger one looks only seventeen or eighteen years old.
We were riding in an open-top truck, and the bumps along the way almost made our stomachs bulge. When we got off the truck at the destination, several young women vomited.
Anna's face didn't look good either. It was probably because she had lived a comfortable life in the past few months and her body functions had declined a lot.
According to work arrangements.
The prisoners of war will be given physical examinations in the morning, and sick and injured prisoners of war will be treated in the afternoon. If conditions permit, some minor surgeries may also be performed.
"Master, it's difficult for us to even visit this prisoner of war camp, let alone sneak in and rescue the people..." Anna walked with Zhou Sen and whispered in a low voice.
"If we can contact someone, we have to let him find a way to get out of the prisoner of war camp first," Zhou Sen said.
"Come out, how come out?"
"Don't forget, we are doctors. The conditions here mean that if you get seriously ill or injured, you will definitely not be able to deal with it. If you don't transport them out for treatment, you will definitely die."
"Then the Soviet army will send people out of prisoner-of-war camps for treatment. Also, even if they need treatment, they won't send them to the No. 1 Hospital and tell us, right?" Anna asked softly.
"Then we can only agree on a time. If there is a bone injury, I may be called for a consultation..." Zhou Sen whispered.
"Is this okay?"
"I don't know. We can only play by ear now. It would be great if we can get in once. They won't give us a second chance. If we succeed, we will succeed. If we don't, we will have to give up." Zhou Sen explained.
"Yeah." Anna nodded. Zhou Sen could still think of such a way, but she didn't know how to start.
This is why this mission is led by Zhou Sen and assisted by her. Zhou Sen is indeed much better than her in many aspects.
And men have more inherent advantages.
Height, weight, etc. can be completed by ordinary soldiers, but vision, hearing, lung and electrocardiogram and blood tests require professional medical staff to perform.
There are also mental assessments of prisoners of war.
Zhou Sendu suspected whether the Soviet side wanted to instigate rebellion among the captured Japanese junior officers here.
This is also the normal operation of the intelligence department. Pishkov also has an excuse to intervene in the work of the prisoner of war camp. Otherwise, how could he easily arrange for Zhou Sen and Anna to come in.
It is even very likely that the prisoner of war camp was managed by the Ministry of Intelligence.
Rows of simple wooden houses should have been specially built for prisoners of war. Compared with reinforced concrete cells, these wooden houses cannot restrict a person's freedom at all.
However, a company of Soviet troops was stationed here. Not only were machine guns set up on high platforms around the area, but they also had searchlights at night to conduct continuous patrols.
If you run away you will most likely be shot on the spot.
If you are captured, those who want to die will have already died. Those who don't want to die will naturally not seek death again. Those who can get here basically want to go back alive.
There are forty or fifty such wooden houses. Based on the calculation that ten prisoners of war live in each wooden house, there are four to five hundred prisoners of war held here.
It is indeed not easy to capture so many prisoners of war.
However, after understanding, there are not only Japanese prisoners of war here, but also puppet Manchukuo and Baekje people. Japanese prisoners of war account for about one-third.
In other words, there are less than 200 Japanese prisoners of war, and the earliest ones who were captured and transferred were more than two months old.
The latest batch has only been here for about a week.
In a big battle, a three-unit Japanese division was crippled, with tens of thousands of casualties, and it was normal to capture one or two hundred prisoners.
Most of them were wounded or stunned by shells and captured, so there were not many Japanese prisoners of war intact.
Most of them are injured.
The Puppet Manchukuo and Baekje prisoners of war were much better. There were very few serious injuries and not many minor injuries. Most of them were intact.
The Soviet army detained officers and soldiers separately. The conditions for officers were better than those for ordinary soldiers, with better food, hygiene and medical care.
This is much simpler.
As long as they are not detained randomly, Zhou Sen can completely ignore the soldiers. Since Ando Morihou is a captain, he must be detained with the officers.
There were not many captured officers, only about twenty, and the one with the highest rank was a Japanese soldier. Of course, he was seriously injured and captured, otherwise, he would have been killed directly on the battlefield.
The physical examination of the soldiers is carried out first, because there are many people and many of them are injured, which is more time-consuming and energy-consuming.
Zhou Sen was assigned to check his hearing.
This job is not difficult, there are three people in total, he and Anna, and he is paired with a translator.
But this kind of repeated work really tests one's patience. The captured Japanese soldiers were extremely unruly and uncooperative often happened, especially when they saw Zhou Sen with an East Asian face sitting there checking them. , and his eyes showed extreme hatred and disgust.
On the contrary, the prisoners of the Manchukuo were more obedient, especially when they heard that Zhou Sen could speak fluent Northeastern dialect, it felt even more cordial.
As for the Baekje people, Zhou Sen did not speak at all and always had an interpreter talk to them.
Hearing examination is relatively fast, but other examinations are relatively slow, especially vision examination, which takes much longer than hearing examination, so two groups of people are equipped.
Zhou Sen can test three or four people in one minute. After an hour, half of it is completed. Then he takes a short break, and then another hour, and the hearing test is basically completed.
As for the other groups, the fastest ones only completed half of the task. They estimated that they would not be able to complete the task before lunch.
Anyway, one day, at most, the time spent treating injured prisoners of war can be shortened. There are also doctors in the prisoner-of-war camps, but their medical skills are slightly inferior.
Natasha called Anna to help. He was responsible for checking the lungs. He relied entirely on a stethoscope, which was much slower and there were not enough manpower.
Zhou Sen doesn't know how to auscultate the lungs, so he won't make a fool of himself.
He simply went to the prisoner-of-war area for officers and contacted the captured officers alone, with a translator of course.
In fact, everything is arranged. The hearing check is the simplest and fastest. After the check is completed, Zhou Sen can go to the officer prisoner of war area.
