Gong Bing specifically gave this task to me, Xie Xuan, which shows that the matter is not simple. Otherwise, the Shenpu Municipal Party Committee can complete this kind of cover-up, so why bother asking the ophthalmologist to take action?
Gong Bing asked: "What are you worried about?"
Xie Xuan said: "Do they have anyone to serve them? You can't joke around with a newborn baby. People in my hometown may not have enough milk, so they have to get some milk powder."
"You know very well. You have even taken into account the lack of milk. It is okay to buy milk powder, but don't be too exaggerated. I have learned your lesson. The bucket you gave me last time has not been finished yet, so I will use the remaining Just give it to them."
"How can you give them the milk powder that has been opened? I will get a few more buckets. This kind of thing is difficult for you to get, but it is very easy for me. When will she arrive?"
"tomorrow."
"Okay, I will deliver the milk powder here before ten o'clock in the evening. You can come over anytime."
The two of them had very heavy tasks, so they chatted for a few words and then separated.
The three pieces of information that Xie Xuan brought were all important, even more important than the chief's wife coming to Shenpu to recuperate.
Gong Bing must inform his superiors of the Japanese army's movements as quickly as possible.
The war situation is like a fire, and sometimes the information is delivered within a minute, which can determine the outcome of the battle.
There is also the rescue of prisoners of war. Regardless of whether they are the national army or our army on the train, they are basically anti-Japanese people. Everyone is worthy of rescue and everyone deserves respect.
On the section of the railway where the military reunification operation took place, there were guerrilla activities nearby. Hundreds of people needed to be evacuated quickly and sheltered. Everyone needed to eat, and some people needed medical treatment. These are all very important issues.
Xie Xuan's task is also very heavy. Hundreds of prisoners of war, that's hundreds of lives, and hundreds of flames of resistance against Japan.
In the afternoon, Xie Xuan went to see Shimoda Hirano and gave him two thousand yen.
Xie Xuan stretched out a palm: "Only five people are enough."
There is no point in how many people he wants to capture. If he didn't want to rob the prisoner of war train, he would definitely have to capture dozens more.
But now, with fewer people, it won't arouse suspicion.
Xie Xuan has already issued an action order to Luo Qi. He also asked Luo Qi to submit a detailed action plan before two o'clock in the afternoon, and wait for the final approval from San Ji Gong before taking official action at five o'clock in the afternoon.
Xie Xuan originally wanted to participate in this kind of action.
But because of his identity, he was destined not to leave Shenpu, let alone meet the people from the Third Action Brigade of Shenpu Station Three.
After confirming the plan, all Xie Xuan could do was to cooperate as much as possible.
Shimoda Hirano took the money and felt that Xie Xuan was at a disadvantage, so he asked: "Only five? How about I give you a few more?"
Xie Xuan shook his head: "If it can't be turned into money, it's waste. If you fish it out, it will cause trouble for us. Don't ask for trouble."
Xie Xuan selected five people from Shimoda Hirano's list, three of whom were from the Loyalty and Salvation Army, one was a deputy battalion commander of the New Fourth Army, and one was a patriotic businessman from Suzhou.
Hirono Shimoda said: "You don't need to go to Sandri Station for these five people. You can just go to Shenpu Railway Station to pick them up."
Xie Xuan asked in surprise: "Aren't we going to complete the procedure?"
Hirono Shimoda smiled and said: "The higher-ups have requested that we send people to escort the train. They will be called upon first, and then they will be asked to leave from the platform."
Xie Xuan said in surprise: "Your people escort the car to the northeast? Isn't that too hard?"
Shimoda Hirono sighed and said: "What can we do? Anyway, there is only one person in each carriage. After crossing the Yellow River, let them enter the carriage to rest."
It is estimated that more than 20% of the prisoners of war froze to death along the way from Shenpu to Northeast China.
After all, Shenpu only needs to wear single clothes now, and in the Northeast, the temperature is already below zero.
"You're not going to escort the car, are you?"
"Of course I won't suffer this."
"That's good. If you go to Northeast China, I will lose one more Japanese friend in Shenpu."
After returning to Sandri, Xie Xuan went to his mailbox to get Luo Qi's detailed plan.
Luo Qi's plan of action basically followed Xie Xuan's plan.
Xie Xuan only helped him adjust the details: for example, Luo Qi went to scout the terrain early, arrange the retreat route, and arrange the settlement of the prisoners of war.
Luo Qi only asked two teams to participate in the operation, and Xie Xuan asked all personnel to participate in the operation.
The extra team is not only a reserve team, but also a logistics support team.
They have to bring an extra set of explosives. Once the explosives in front fail to go off, they are responsible for blowing up the train.
In addition, each member of the reserve team had to carry four kilograms of biscuits. After rescuing the prisoners of war, each member of the reserve team was given two biscuits to ensure that they could operate for several hours. If possible, you must also prepare some emergency medicines, such as anti-inflammatory drugs.
The most important thing is the retreat plan.
If there is cooperation from the local people, the Third Action Brigade must cooperate with the local people to settle these prisoners of war, especially those from the mountain city.
Only after registering all the people from the mountain city can we take a detour back to Shenpu.
At four o'clock, Roach also went to the dead mailbox in Sandri and got the latest instructions from Sanjigong.
Seeing Sanjigong's completed plan, Luo Qi immediately took action.
As long as you have money, it is still easy to buy biscuits in Shenpu.
Even for medicines, as long as they are not purchased in large quantities, there is no problem.
There are many pharmacies in the concession, most of which are opened by foreigners. As long as you buy them separately in small quantities, medicines are easy to buy.
At eleven o'clock in the evening, Xie Xuan drove to the train station.
Shimoda Hirano was still very trusting. After those people were called by their names, they asked Xie Xuan to take them away directly.
"Everyone, you are very lucky. With only five thousand yuan each, you can regain your freedom."
Xie Xuan took them back to the safe house everywhere. These people were selected by Xie Xuan and were regarded as welfare for the surroundings.
He gave Shimoda Hirono two thousand yen, but now it is estimated that five thousand French currency can only be exchanged for one thousand yen.
Xie Xuan needed a reason to release them. He had paid for the two thousand yen. It was estimated that he would also have to pay for these people's expenses.
To be captured in a prisoner-of-war camp must have done something that was sorry to the Japanese, or at least offended the Japanese and puppet personnel.
For example, the businessman in Suzhou had no political identity. He only did business with the New Fourth Army and sold some goods to the New Fourth Army, but he was arrested by local spies.
"Five thousand yuan? This is too much. I can't afford it."
The deputy battalion commander complained first.
The Communist Party cadres had no money, but the three members of the Loyalty and Salvation Army were willing to give money.
There was also a businessman who said he could help the deputy battalion commander pay out the money.
It made Xie Xuan feel embarrassed. He was obviously rescuing his comrades, but he had to pay for it from outsiders.
But Xie Xuan also made a request. After the businessman returns, he can no longer stay in Suzhou and has to change his name when he goes abroad. As for the procedures, Xie Xuan can help him with it.
After Xie Xuan returned home, it was already past one in the morning. Just as he was about to go to sleep, the phone at home suddenly rang rapidly.
