From the morning to about two o'clock in the afternoon on December 1, the Dragon Boat Festival special forces team did not move.
During the Dragon Boat Festival, everyone hid in a mountain col to rest. Surrounded by trees are yellow soft lawns.
They were wrapped in Japanese coats and nested here. Except for the sentries and signal soldiers, everyone slept to recharge their batteries.
The Dragon Boat Festival is also resting, because there will definitely be a tough battle to fight next.
He has marked at least four locations on the map where the Japs' chemical weapons may be hidden.
But at this time, he was not sure, let alone searching one place after another. Because the four locations are too far apart. After all the searches were completed, it would take at least one day, not to mention whether they would be exhausted.
So instead of searching blindly, it is better to wait for news about the little devil.
The little devil's chemical weapons must be transported to the front line. So he will definitely send it.
Sure enough, in Changzhou, when the Japanese in Baijia Town and other places had been fighting for a long time with no results, the little Japanese finally couldn't help but use chemical weapons.
The Japanese sent telegrams to the frontline troops to prepare for receiving chemical weapons. This includes escort and some reception details, but does not say the specific location of the chemical weapons depot.
Pang Hu took several intercepted messages and ran to Duanwu to report to Duanwu.
This was promised before the Dragon Boat Festival. Once there is any news, we will report it immediately. So even if Duanwu was still sleeping, Pang Hu had to wake him up.
I took a four-hour nap during the Dragon Boat Festival and felt really comfortable when I woke up. He took the Japanese message and read it there, although he could only translate most of the content. But the words yellow bullets, 11th Wing, 21st Wing, 42nd Wing, 47th Wing, etc. still appeared.
In addition, there is still time, which is between five and seven o'clock tomorrow morning. The time for each wing to receive chemical weapons is different.
Pang Hu said: "Commander, all the telegrams are here, but there is no location for the Japanese chemical weapons depot."
Duanwu smiled and said: "Isn't this the case?"
Pang Hu was still puzzled because he had read the telegram many times before handing it over to Duanwu, and there was not even a place name related to a chemical weapons depot on it.
But Dragon Boat Festival has its own way. Because this is just a math problem for elementary school students.
Dragon Boat Festival only needs to know the time when each Japanese army unit received chemical weapons, and if the cars are traveling at the same speed, they can deduce the starting point of these convoys.
When Dragon Boat Festival finally put pen to paper, Pang Hu was stunned. Where has he seen this before?
Although Pang Hu also attended private school and studied mathematics, those were just simple addition, subtraction, multiplication and division.
So it's no wonder that Pang Hu, as the second lieutenant commander of the 36th Division, couldn't even calculate the starting point of the Japanese chemical weapons arsenal. He could only watch the Dragon Boat Festival writing flying in shock, and in a moment he deduced the location of the Japanese chemical weapons depot - Huishan Town.
Huishan Town is less than fifty miles away from Changzhou, located in the northwest of Taihu Lake, and more than sixty miles away from Wujin.
Huishan Town was also within the speculation range of Dragon Boat Festival before.
Therefore, the results of both inferences are Huishan Town, so at least 90% of the Japanese chemical weapons arsenal is in Huishan Town.
The odds are already very high, and it’s worth taking a gamble on the Dragon Boat Festival.
He led his people straight to Huishan Town. The road was very quiet and he almost didn't encounter the Japanese army.
It was obvious that Duanwu's plan was successful. He asked Lao Shou and others to escort the wounded back to the rear. The little Japanese must have believed it. Moreover, he had also intercepted the Japs' messages before. Ban Heng Japs ordered the Japanese 42nd Regiment to stop searching and all go to Changzhou to participate in the Changzhou Battle.
The Japanese 42nd Regiment was specially transferred from the direction of Jiangyin in order to search for the Dragon Boat Festival special operations team. But at this time, the 42nd Wing withdrew, which illustrates the problem.
So Duanwu and others walked very smoothly. Apart from encountering a few Japanese checkpoints and going around them, they saw almost no Japanese brigade.
From this point of view, we can also see how empty the Japanese forces are in the rear. If at this time, a surprise force penetrates behind the little devil, it will definitely win by surprise.
Duanwu lamented that he had too few troops, otherwise he would definitely turn the little Japanese's rear upside down, and he might not be able to find Ban Heng, the old Japanese's headquarters.
Of course, old devil Ban Heng is very cautious. I am afraid no one knows where he is now.
And Duanwu had no intention of going to Ban Heng's Japs headquarters, because he had to eliminate all the yellow bombs marked by the Japanese army before the Japs used chemical weapons.
···············
Two hours later, outside Huishan Town.
The sun was setting in the west, and a ray of sun that was about to sink below the horizon had already made half of the sky red.
At this time, Duanwu and his special forces appeared on a mountain less than two kilometers away from Huishan Town, and looked out with binoculars.
Looking at it, although Huishan Town has experienced the baptism of war, most of the houses in the town are still well preserved because it is not a main battlefield.
There is a city wall outside the town, but it is not very tall, only about ten meters at most, as high as a three-story building. The Japanese planted plaster flags on the city wall to prove that this place belonged to the Japanese.
There were Japs at the city gate, but there were only four of them. The rest were policemen in dark blue uniforms.
They have surrendered to the Japanese. In the absence of puppet troops, they can only guard the city gate.
Duan Wu was just trying to see how many people there were on the other side. He didn't want a Japanese officer to come out and say anything, so the police and Japanese all entered the city.
Pang Hu asked at this time: "Tuanzuo, the little devil has closed the city gate. We can't get in."
Duanwu looked at Huishan Town with a telescope and replied: "This is not a problem. The problem is that this town covers an area of more than 20 square kilometers, and we only have six to eight hours to find the Japanese chemical weapons arsenal. .”
"···············"
Pang Hu was speechless, because the problem he was thinking about always fell far, far away from the group. While he was thinking about how to enter the city, Tuanzuo was thinking about how to find the chemical weapons cache hidden in Huishan Town, which is more than 20 square kilometers.
It's really hard. The Japanese's chemical weapons arsenal cannot be exposed openly. Although the Japanese disdain the international condemnation. But superficial work also needs to be done.
What's more, chemical weapons were originally a secret of the Japanese military, and it was impossible to publicize them everywhere.
But Dragon Boat Festival naturally has its own way. He also wants to disguise himself as a Japs and sneak into the city, and then find out information about the chemical weapons arsenal from within the Japs.
Of course, with so many people entering the city together, the Japanese would be suspicious.
Duanwu and Pang Hu said: "You take people to rest here. At night, you do this, this, and then this, and this again. Do you understand?..."
