Quartermasters can also fight the devils

Zhang Wenwu and Chen Mingzhang happily played with money for half the night. After returning to the room on the third floor, Zhang Wenwu's face immediately became very bad. Chen Mingzhang began to remind him that he suddenly thought of a possibility, that is, if Kojima Kenzo made a secret move in advance, then Liao Qian's preparation plans would be completely useless.

According to Liao Qian's idea, he would keep an eye on the clinic. As long as the doctors and nurses inside were dispatched, it would mean that the Japanese action had begun. But what if Kojima Kenzo didn't bring doctors and nurses? What if those doctors and nurses were just a cover? It was very likely that Kojima Kenzo and his two men could pretend to be doctors to enter the prison. When they got Miyamoto Jiro out, they would run away directly. It was very likely that they would not return to Zhenjiang City at all. Then his deployment in Zhenjiang City would be completely a decoration. It would be very difficult to capture them by relying on the people monitoring outside the prison. After all, Liao Qian deployed all the important forces in Zhenjiang City.

Thinking of this, Zhang Wenwu did not even take a rest. He put on his military uniform and rushed to the division headquarters. He felt that at the critical moment, every minute was crucial. He needed to tell Liao Qian about this guess immediately and adjust the previous deployment in time, so as not to fail at the last moment because of this problem.

Liao Qian was sleeping soundly in the dormitory of the division headquarters. He was suddenly awakened by a violent knock on the door. He simply put on his coat and hurriedly opened the door: "Deputy Director Zhang? What's wrong with you?" Liao Qian was also shocked when he saw Zhang Wenwu panting outside the door. Judging from Zhang Wenwu's appearance, he should have run all the way to find him. What big thing happened that made Zhang Wenwu so anxious? His heart tightened at the moment, and he quickly let Zhang Wenwu into the room and closed the door.

As soon as Zhang Wenwu entered the room, he quickly said, "Deputy Director Liao, there is a big loophole in our deployment. We need to modify our plan immediately."

At that moment, Zhang Wenwu repeated his analysis in detail to Liao Qian while Liao Qian looked stunned. Finally, he said seriously that a more complete plan must be made, and it must be done now.

After listening to Zhang Wenwu's analysis, Liao Qian also started to think seriously, and even forgot to button up his clothes. He knew that the problem Zhang Wenwu mentioned was very serious and could indeed make the final arrest plan fail. He discussed a new arrest plan with Zhang Wenwu on the spot.

At Zhang Wenwu's suggestion, Liao Qian pulled out half of the forces originally assigned to Zhenjiang City and deployed them outside the prison and along the route from the prison to Zhenjiang City. The vacuum areas left by those people in the city were filled by soldiers directly drawn from the 102nd Division, who changed into civilian clothes. After all, when it came to arresting Japanese spies, the army did not have the power to arrest them directly, and could only change into civilian clothes.

In addition, Zhang Wenwu suggested that starting from today, the Investigation Department should start monitoring outside the prison to prevent Kenzo Kojima from taking action secretly, and it must be foolproof.

Two days later, at 8:30 am on Sunday, the sky was cloudless and the sun was hanging high in the sky. At this time, a car with a Jinling license plate drove up from the road outside Jinling Prison. When the car arrived at the prison gate, it was stopped by the guard post at the prison gate. Two men in white shirts got out of the car and showed a document and their ID to the guard post at the gate. The heading of the document was: Jinling Court.

After seeing the document, the prison guard at the gate sentry box did not dare to neglect it and quickly called the duty room. The person who answered the phone was Lu Cheng, who was on duty today. After hearing that it was the clerk and staff of Jinling Court, he asked the prison guard on duty at the sentry box to open the gate and let the car into Jinling Prison. After receiving the order, the prison guard at the gate sentry box did not ask any more questions and directly opened the prison gate and let the car in.

After the car stopped, the two Jinling Court staff members came to Lu Cheng's office with documents and handed them to Lu Cheng for review. Lu Cheng took the document and saw that it was a notice issued by the Jinling Court on the retrial and release of the North Korean Wu Xingliang. He immediately understood what it meant and asked the two Jinling Court staff members to wait in the room. He took the notice to find Xu Sheng, the deputy warden who was on "special" duty today. Xu Sheng also checked the notice and found that it was indeed an official notice from the Jinling Court. So he signed his name on the document and asked Lu Cheng to arrange for someone to bring the prisoner out and hand him over to the staff from the Jinling Court.

Niu Aman also "intentionally" replaced the colleague who was on duty on Sunday today. After Lu Cheng came out of Xu Sheng's office, he took the notice from Lu Cheng and walked towards the prison cell area, showing the Jinling Court's release notice signed by Deputy Warden Xu Sheng along the way, and brought the North Korean Wu Xingliang to Lu Cheng's office without any obstruction and handed him over to two staff members of the Jinling Court.

Jiro Miyamoto is in a very complicated mood now. Two o'clock this afternoon was the time for action agreed upon by him and the "master". Before he even started pretending to be sick, he was taken by the prison guards to two people who said they were from the Jinling Court. He didn't know where they were going to take him. It seemed that he would not be able to be rescued by the "master" today. Damn Chinese, he was only half a day away.

Two Jinling Court staff members took Miyamoto Jiro to the waiting car in the office compound. As soon as they sat in the back seat of the car, a Jinling Court staff member beside them whispered in Japanese: "Colonel Miyamoto Jiro, stay calm. We are from the "Eagle Agency" of the Intelligence Bureau of the Imperial Japanese Army Ministry. Do you like fried large intestines with chives?"

When Jiro Miyamoto first heard this man say in Japanese that he was sent by the "Eagle Agency" to rescue him, he immediately became alert. He suspected that this was most likely a Chinese testing him. But when he heard that man actually said the code word between himself and his superiors, he was horrified. This was definitely a real "Eagle Agency" member. But Jiro Miyamoto was confused again. This was completely inconsistent with the plan given to him by the "old master". Could it be that the plan had changed?

"No, I like Jiaqi brand mooncakes." Miyamoto Jiro whispered his own code answer in Japanese.

"Very good, Colonel Jiro Miyamoto, we will escort you out of the prison and to Shanghai immediately. Our chief will explain everything to you after we arrive in Shanghai." The man nodded. The secret code was correct, so he could drive away from the prison immediately, so he told the driver in front to drive immediately.

The car drove out of Jinling Prison smoothly. When it arrived at the gate, a person disguised as a Jinling Court staff member handed a release document to the prison guard in charge of checking at the gate booth. The document had the signature of Xu Sheng, the deputy warden of the prison, and the seal of the prison. The prison guard at the booth looked at the release document, found no problem, and opened the gate to let the car leave.

On the main road outside the prison gate, there is an open-air teahouse on the roadside. Two young men in shirts are drinking tea here, while their eyes are constantly staring at the passers-by. Most of these people are going to visit the prison. Today is Sunday, so there are a lot of visitors. There are also many people setting up various stalls on both sides of the road to do business.

"Captain Cai, we have been watching here for almost two days. Why haven't the North Koreans in the photo appeared yet?" a young man asked in a low voice.

"It won't happen so fast. The higher-ups don't know when these North Koreans will show up, so we have to keep an eye on them here." Captain Cai said helplessly and stopped talking.

"Hey, today is Sunday. I don't think the North Koreans will show up." The young man complained a little bored. He also knew that they had to carry out the orders from their superiors. Who wanted them to be small fry?

While the two were talking, a black car with a Jinling license plate drove past them. As there were many pedestrians on the road, the car was not going very fast.

"Captain, it's that North Korean." The young man widened his eyes, pointed at the car and said loudly to the captain beside him.

Captain Cai also stood up in an instant: "Daniu, are you sure? Did you see it right?"

Daniu also stood up and said excitedly: "Captain, that car can't go fast here. I saw it clearly, it's the person in the photo. I guarantee it with my head."

Captain Cai believed what Daniu said. This kid has very good eyesight, which is why he brought him with him. He muttered, "We deserve to be credited. The people at the prison gate didn't even notice that we have made it here."

The two immediately caught up with the car that was moving slowly. At the same time, they made hidden gestures while walking, calling on other members of the operation team to catch up with the car in front. As long as the car was not heading towards Zhenjiang City, they would immediately start to act.

Captain Cai gestured to a team member across the road, and the team member turned and ran towards the prison. He received instructions from the captain, asking him to hurry to the prison guard post and call the superiors in Zhenjiang City to inform them that the North Koreans had been picked up. At the same time, he asked the team of personnel monitoring the prison gate to come to reinforce him.

Chen Shuming's office in the Investigation Department has now become the headquarters for this arrest operation. Liao Qian, Zhang Wenwu, Liu Qiqian and others have gathered here. Last night, Chen Mingzhang told Zhang Wenwu that Kojima Taijun asked him not to run around today and to accompany him to do some work at noon. Zhang Wenwu immediately realized that Kojima Kenzo was going to take action, so he gathered everyone overnight and waited for news at the Investigation Department.
