Huajie, Tongfu Inn.

A middle-aged man wearing a woolen coat, a black hat, and carrying a suitcase came down from the second floor. He walked to the counter, threw down his keys, and said, "Boss, check out!"

"Uh..." The shopkeeper looked at the middle-aged man in surprise, then nodded and said with a smile: "Okay, sir, take care!"

The middle-aged man turned around and walked out of the inn with his suitcase and came to the street.

People were coming and going on the street, and the sound of car horns and rickshaw bells continued.

He rolled up his sleeves and looked at his watch, then turned his head to look at both ends of the street. Seeing a Japanese military vehicle coming from the right, he quickly turned around.

Unexpectedly, a Japanese military vehicle drove over and stopped beside him. A driver in Japanese military uniform reached out and knocked on the door: "Dong Dong Dong"

"Hey!"

The middle-aged man stiffened, reached his hands behind his back, slowly turned around, lifted the lower half of his coat, and gripped the gun handle, ready to draw his gun and fire at any time.

"What are you doing? Get in the car!" A familiar voice came.

The middle-aged man looked at the Japanese driver, stunned, his eyes widened: "You..."

"What do you mean? Are you stupid? Why are you still standing there? Get in the car!" Zhang Yunhe, who was dressed as a Japanese driver, urged.

When the middle-aged man saw that the Japanese driver was actually Zhang Yunhe, he finally reacted and hurriedly carried the suitcase around the front of the car and got on the passenger seat.

After closing the car door, Zhang Yunhe shifted gears, stepped on the accelerator and drove forward.

He turned his head and looked at Chang Le, nodded and said, "Yes, anyone else would not recognize him!"

Chang Le looked at Zhang Yunhe and asked, "Where did you get the Japanese military vehicles and uniforms?"

Zhang Yunhe smiled. "How difficult is that? Surviving in this foreign land, who doesn't have some tricks up their sleeve? As the saying goes, cats have their ways, and dogs have their holes. Not to mention the Japanese military vehicles and uniforms, even their munitions and supplies—as long as you want to buy them, I can find a way to get them for you!"

Chang Le asked, "Did you get them from the black market? Those are second-hand goods captured or picked up from the battlefield."

Zhang Yunhe pulled a cigarette from the pack, held it between his lips, and lit it with a lighter. He said as he smoked, "I never shop on the black market. My sellers specialize in quality goods at low prices, and used goods are even cheaper! Of course, I won't do small business dealing in a few or even a dozen guns. It's dangerous, and I can't make any money!"

"Aren't you a comprador for a foreign company, doing business in foreign goods? Why are you also doing arms business?" Chang Le asked, and then reached out to take the cigarette from his mouth and put it in his own mouth to smoke.

Zhang Yunhe exhaled a puff of smoke. "Yeah, who said that arms can't be part of the foreign goods business? Why are you looking at me like that?"

Chang Le stared at Zhang Yunhe and said, "I didn't realize your business style is so wild!"

"You can't make money without being unconventional. These days, you can't make much money by doing business honestly!"

Chang Le asked again, "If it's arms, what's the largest order you can take at once?"

Zhang Yunhe turned his head to look at Chang Le, then looked back ahead: "No matter how big the order is, I can handle it, as long as you have money!"

There was suspicion in Chang Le's eyes, and he obviously didn't believe it.

Zhang Yunhe glanced at her again, "You don't believe it?"

"Do you think I should believe it?" Chang Le asked back.

Zhang Yunhe smiled, turned around, took out a cloth bag from behind the seat and threw it to Chang Le.

"what is this?"

"Put on the Japanese military uniforms. Although I have a special pass, it will not easily arouse suspicion from the Japanese soldiers at the checkpoint if both of us wear Japanese military uniforms," ​​said Zhang Yunhe.

Chang Le opened the package and took out a set of Japanese military uniform and coat from it. After putting them on, it looked very fitting.

She smoked a cigarette and said, "Let's take another route, the one that goes south out of Shanghai!"

Zhang Yunhe shook his head. "No, we should go back the same way and leave Shanghai through the northern checkpoint! Once your whereabouts are exposed, that Araki you mentioned will definitely lead his men in pursuit. He won't think you still have the courage to go to that checkpoint again. He's likely to block you at the southern checkpoint. We have to do the opposite. Only in this way can we pass the checkpoint safely."

Chang Le thought about it and nodded: "Yeah, that makes sense!"

She made small talk: "What's in the carriage? Is it an empty carriage?"

"Of course not. How could I possibly make a trip with an empty truck? The inspection is strict now, and it's difficult to go out. I must bring some goods with me, otherwise it would be a wasted trip." Zhang Yunhe said.

"What's on this truck?" Chang Le asked again.

Zhang Yunhe said: "Of course it's arms and supplies."

Chang Le turned his head and looked at Zhang Yunhe again, "The Japanese?"

"It's mine now!"

"how many?"

Zhang Yunhe replied calmly, "A squadron of the Japanese has all the weapons, equipment, and ammunition, except for the Type 92 infantry gun. They have 140 rifles, 9 light machine guns, 4 heavy machine guns, and 9 grenade launchers, each with two basic rounds of ammunition!"

After hearing this, Chang Le swallowed secretly, and her gaze towards the man became different again.

"It seems that this man's abilities are extraordinary!"

An hour later, Zhang Yunhe and Chang Le drove the Japanese military vehicle to the northern checkpoint outside Shanghai again.

"Stop and undergo inspection!" The military vehicle was stopped in front of the checkpoint, and several barricades in front blocked the road.

The Japanese sergeant stepped up and looked towards the cab.

Zhang Yunhe took out a special pass and said, "Look carefully, this is a special pass from the Expeditionary Force Headquarters. We are transporting emergency military supplies!"

The Japanese sergeant took the special pass, looked at it, and then looked at Zhang Yunhe and Chang Le.

He pointed at Chang Le and said, "Sir, please take out your ID for inspection!"

"Baga!" Zhang Yunhe cursed loudly, pushed open the car door, pushed the Japanese sergeant out, and fell to the ground with his four legs in the air.

Zhang Yunhe jumped out of the cab, grabbed the Japanese sergeant's collar and slapped him several times in the face.

The surrounding Japanese soldiers saw this and pointed their rifles at Zhang Yunhe, shouting, "Stop!"

Zhang Yunhe lifted the Japanese sergeant up, pulled out a tortoise shell from his waist, and pressed it against his forehead, shouting, "Baga Yalu! Even the special pass from the expeditionary force headquarters doesn't work for you? I'll shoot you dead, and see who dares to redress your injustice!"

"No, no, no, Major, calm down and don't shoot! Put down your guns, put them down quickly, Baka!" The Japanese sergeant was so frightened that he shouted at his soldiers.

The Japanese soldiers looked at each other, hesitated, and put down their guns one after another.

The Japanese sergeant swallowed his saliva and quickly explained, "Major, we're not trying to make things difficult for you. It's the Special High Technology Department that has come to inform us that they're going to conduct a strict investigation of those who come into Shanghai these days. We really have no other choice!"
