No one at the Shenpu Third Station of the Military Command knew Xie Xuan's home phone number. The call at this time must have been from the Japanese and puppets.
Sure enough, Shimoda Hirono's voice came from the other end of the phone.
"Xie Sang, something went wrong with the prisoner of war train."
Xie Xuan said in surprise: "Something happened?"
"Yes, well, I should have asked you to take more people away. Now it's better. All the prisoners of war have escaped."
Shimoda Hirono's tone was not anxious at all, but seemed pity.
"They all ran away? How could that happen?"
Shimoda Hirono said: "The prisoner of war train was attacked by the anti-Japanese elements. The railway track was blown up and the locomotive was blown over. The soldiers escorting it suffered heavy casualties. Most of the prisoners of war escaped. This is all money."
The attack on the prisoner of war train had nothing to do with him.
On the contrary, the prisoner of war ran away, and his previous worries disappeared.
Xie Xuan smiled bitterly and said: "I didn't expect such a thing to happen. We are still timid."
Shimoda Hirono's idea surprised him.
When the prisoner of war train was bombed, Shimoda Hirano was not anxious at all. Instead, he felt a sense of joy and regret. Xie Xuan also opened his eyes.
What about the promised bushido spirit?
Did you agree to be loyal to the emperor?
"You have a saying in China: "The brave will be brave to death," and there's nothing wrong with that.
Xie Xuan asked: "Shimoda-kun, it is your subordinates who are being escorted this time. Are they okay?"
Shimoda Hirono said calmly: "All the soldiers in a squad are loyal to the emperor."
These escorting soldiers were originally supposed to receive dividends from the two thousand yen. After they died, this money was also saved.
"It's really a pity, Shimoda-kun, please have my condolences."
After answering the call, Xie Xuan could finally sleep peacefully.
The next morning, he went to Sandri to get Roach's combat report.
The operation last night went smoothly. At the preset location, the bomb was detonated when the prisoner of war train passed by.
The canister car in which the prisoners of war were sitting had been removed at that time, so the explosion had no impact on the prisoner of war car.
Not long after the explosion, local anti-Japanese guerrillas arrived.
At this moment, the Kuomintang and the Communist Party achieved true cooperation.
Roach handed medicines and biscuits to the local guerrillas and asked them to move the prisoners of war to a safe place. Among them, the Chinese army, Roach asked them to be sent to the territory of the Loyalty and Salvation Army.
He took all the team members and took a detour back to Shenpu.
All the personnel returned safely, and Xie Xuan was completely relieved.
He then sent a report to Shancheng to ask for credit from the Shenpu Third Station and the Third Operation Brigade.
In addition, he also applied for a special fund of 30,000 yuan for the three cadres of the Loyalty and Salvation Army in the safe house.
Originally, it only cost 5,000 per person, and Xie Xuan, the middleman, made some profit from the difference.
Without the thirty thousand yuan, he would not have known the information about the prisoner of war train.
After Shancheng received the call from Shenpu Station 3, he happily gave the money.
In addition, a commendation order was also issued to the Shenpu Third Station and the Third Action Brigade, and a thousand yuan was awarded.
Dai Li had already received a call from the Loyalty and Salvation Army. More than two hundred captured members of the Loyalty and Salvation Army had been sent to their base by the anti-Japanese guerrillas.
The three Shenpu stations saved more than 200 national troops at one time, almost a battalion.
These people are always veterans on the battlefield with rich combat experience. When they return to the army, they only need a little rest before they can join the battlefield again.
They have been in prisoner-of-war camps and are not afraid of the Japanese army, which can greatly improve the combat effectiveness of the Loyalty and National Salvation Army.
Dai Li was very satisfied with the performance of the Shenpu Three Stations. First he sanctioned Fu Jing'an, and now he has rescued hundreds of loyal and loyal National Salvation Army soldiers.
Although he also saved the New Fourth Army and the Communist Party, the National Army had more people, so Xie Xuan should be credited.
Xie Xuan just received the third-class Yunhui Medal, so he can't get another one, right?
It stands to reason that a third-class Baoding Medal can be issued. However, not long after Xie Xuan received the Yunhui Medal, the Military Commission temporarily withheld it and waited until some time later.
"Mr. Dai, Sanjigong wants to protect the Shenpu Station. If we declare it to the outside world, we will say that this prisoner of war train was caused by the Shenpu Station."
Ye Yuyin said: "There are still flaws in his plan. If he reports to the bureau earlier, it can be improved."
From the telegram sent by Shenpu, he could see that the plan for the Shenpu Three Stations was relatively hasty, especially the terrain was not surveyed in advance. As a result, after the operation was successful, so many prisoners of war could not be taken away at all, and he did not know where to take them. , can only be handed over to the local guerrillas.
Su Hanyu explained: "From the time he got the information to the time he implemented the plan, it only took a dozen hours. Since he couldn't meet with Luo Qi, he communicated through a dead mailbox. This plan was already optimal."
Dai Li said: "If Mr. Sanji is transferred to the bureau in the future, he can work as your deputy in the operations department."
Ye Yuyin was secretly surprised. Dai Li's evaluation was already quite high.
Su Hanyu smiled and said: "If he comes to the bureau, he must come to the Intelligence Department."
Dai Li's evaluation was very helpful to him. Xie Xuan's ability was recognized by Dai Li, and he, as the recommender, was proud of himself.
Every time he received good news of meritorious service at the Shenpu Three Stations, he felt a strong sense of accomplishment.
Dai Li said: "His status is special and it is impossible for him to come to the game for the time being. Shenpu needs him even more."
Let Xie Xuan play his role better in Shenpu.
After all, the Chief of Operations of the Secret Service has direct access to the intelligence of the Secret Service, and no one can replace this position.
Xie Xuan didn't care about Shancheng's reaction. He just wanted to know whether Gong Bing had sent out the Japanese army's operational intelligence.
It wasn't until night that Xie Xuan met Gong Bing.
Gong Bing smiled and said: "This time we have eliminated more than a hundred comrades, and they have all been transferred to the base area. Commander Cheng specifically asked me to tell you, thank you for saving so many comrades, and thank you for your contribution to the army."
"This is what I should do. They were fighting for the country and the nation. Everyone has the responsibility and obligation to save them, not to mention I am still a party member. By the way, have you sent out the information about the Japanese siege of Chongming Island? ?”
"Based on your intelligence, the Provincial Party Committee decided that except for one comrade who stayed on the island to persist in the Party's underground activities, the Interim Committee and the Self-Defense Corps evacuated Chongming and moved north to the Qihai and Hainan areas. They will cooperate with the main local forces to launch an attack on the local puppet troops . The New Fourth Army in Baxianbu, Wuhandong, Erbao and other places have also received intelligence. They are ready to fight. As long as the Japanese army dares to come, they will never come back."
"That's good, that's good."
"Comrade Ophthalmologist, I have handed over your milk powder to the Shenpu Municipal Committee. Four large buckets of milk powder are enough for the child to be one year old."
Xie Xuan took out a wad of money and stuffed it into Gong Bing's hand: "It's not much, I'll send it over after you finish eating. In addition, there is some money here, please give it to them for living expenses."
"They came with living expenses."
"How much can you bring? When living in Shenpu, you have to spend money everywhere. It's not a bad thing to have more money."
Xie Xuan originally thought that this matter had nothing to do with him, but unexpectedly, an accident happened.
