Chapter 395: Intimidate the tiger by knocking on the mountain

I woke up in the morning...

No, it's already 3pm.

Zhang Yong looked at the time and realised that it had been almost five days since he left Jinling on his own.

Shit, time really flies.

Counting the time it takes to get back, there are only three days left at most.

Damn. Only three days left. How can I find Yang Junjian? How can I bring the other party back?

'Knock, knock!'

'Knock, knock!'

Someone suddenly knocks on the door.

Get dressed. Go answer the door. It's Yu Lexing.

'Commander Yu...'

'I have news about Yang Junjian.'

'Oh?'

'A Japanese spy revealed something. Two months ago, a Chinese pilot landed in an open space outside the northern suburbs. A Japanese military police patrol happened to be nearby. So they took him away.'

'So, Yang Junjian is currently in the Japanese military police headquarters?'

'No. He has been transferred to the Japanese garrison headquarters.'

'That's troublesome.'

Zhang Yong frowned.

The commander of the Japanese garrison headquarters seems to be Tada Shun. This guy is a lieutenant general.

A Japanese lieutenant general. His rank is too high. He is someone you can't provoke.

The garrison headquarters has at least one Japanese brigade garrisoned there. Not to mention that Zhang Yong only has a few dozen people. Even if there are a few regiments, they can't get in.

The combat effectiveness of Japanese soldiers during this period is at the peak of the peak.

He immediately reacted. If Yang Junjian is at the garrison headquarters, then Yu Lexing definitely won't come looking for him.

It's useless to look.

Who dares to go to the Japanese garrison headquarters to grab someone? Even the president can't do it.

'Commander Yu, don't keep us in suspense.'

'The Japanese spy confessed that the pilot is in the hands of Tomohiko Wachi. Tomohiko Wachi is the head of the Japanese Tanaka Special Services Agency.'

'Oh?'

Zhang Yong's eyes sparkled.

No wonder Tomohiko Wachi would be so furious. It turns out that he misunderstood.

Asking for Yang Junjian was the same as asking for his life. Of course he would never hand him over. That would mean the Japanese would fail in their efforts to buy over other traitors.

Right now, there were traitors everywhere in North China.

'The Japanese also confessed that He Zhiying would probably let Yang Junjian attend a press conference in public in the near future...'

'What?'

Zhang Yong's brows furrowed.

He knew the Japanese would probably pull this stunt.

That was also the lady's biggest worry.

If Yang Junjian is allowed to make a public appearance, give a rambling speech, slander the Nationalist government, and then surrender to the Japanese, it would be like slapping the lady in the face. She would definitely lose face.

Therefore, this Yang Junjian must die.

It has come to this. He definitely cannot be captured alive. He must be killed directly. Then his bones will be scattered to the four winds.

'Station Chief Chen is arranging the plan of action.'

'Do you know the specific address?'

'Not yet. He is being interrogated.'

'Fine, I'll continue to arrest Japanese spies. The more Japanese spies we arrest, the more information we'll uncover.'

'The Japanese spies who are too low-ranking probably don't know...'

'What about Wang Jingxiao?'

'Him? He should know, right? This so-called press conference is actually being planned by a group of major traitors. Wang Jingxiao is one of them.'

'Who else is involved?'

'Many. Yin Rugeng, Qi Xieyuan, Wang Yitang, Huang Sinian, Xie Chengping, Tang Guoyuan, Fu Jiazhen...'

Yu Lexing listed many names.

Zhang Yong took out a small notebook and wrote them all down.

Big traitors?

Good. I like these people the most.

Once they are caught, they will be killed, and their property will be confiscated. We will fight against the Japanese and save the country, and get rid of the evil for the people.

And incidentally, we will line our own pockets...

No, it's all for the national treasury.

You see, Yu Zesheng blackmailing Mu Liancheng was at the behest of the station chief. The station chief represents the national government...

'Which of these traitors is more active?'

'Fu Jiazhen.'

'Good. Let's go and have a look in secret.'

'Let's go!'

The group set off quickly.

Fu Jiazhen was once a local warlord. He had his own army.

Later, after being defeated by the 29th Army, his army dispersed. However, he still had a considerable number of trusted subordinates.

He was always surrounded by a large entourage when he went in and out. After defecting to the Japanese, he became even more arrogant.

It is estimated that at this press conference, this guy will also take the stage to speak, and then openly defect to the Japanese invaders.

His lair is at the Tianpeng Theatre.

These traitors all like to run theatres. Then they keep a group of actors.

Then he uses the theatre to entertain guests. Including the Japanese. Often, he lives in the theatre. He is entangled with the actors. It can be said that he is reluctant to leave.

'Look, there are many guards at the door.'

'Trying to disguise yourself and get in. It's very difficult. Only someone who knows the ropes can get in.'

Yu Lexing gives Zhang Yong a reminder.

Zhang Yong silently monitors the surroundings. There are so many red dots. At least ten.

It seems that the Japanese have gone to great lengths to win over this Fu Jiazhen. There are that many gunmen protecting him in secret.

Assault? No way!

Once the gun goes off, the nearby Japanese invaders may come to reinforce.

At this moment in Tianjin, there are as many as 7,000 to 8,000 Japanese invaders stationed here. It is a very powerful military force.

This is completely different from Shanghai.

In Shanghai, firing a gun is not a big deal. The Japanese invaders have no way to send reinforcements on a large scale.

But here, once the gun goes off, the first ones to arrive may be the Japanese invaders.

Previously, the murder of two traitorous journalists in the Japanese concession had led to the Japanese infuriatedly exerting pressure, which culminated in the humiliating Ho-May Agreement...

Suddenly, Zhang Yong had a feeling.

Was it Chen Gongshu?

Strange, what was he doing here?

Sure enough, a moment later, Chen Gongshu appeared.

'Zhang Yong!' The Tianjin station manager called Zhang Yong directly by name, "come here!'

'Yes!" Zhang Yong hurriedly walked over.

'There's an operation tonight.'

'What?'

'The higher-ups have instructed that Fu Jiazhen be punished.'

'Tonight?'

'Yes!'

Chen Gongshu replied.

Zhang Yong: ...

The so-called punishment was actually an assassination.

Chen Gongshu had carried out many such missions. So, basically, there was nothing to think about.

'But...'

'What?'

'Fu Jiazhen is surrounded by ten Japanese invaders for protection.'

'How many?'

'Ten.'

'Impossible!'

Chen Gongshu shook his head. He didn't believe it.

Just one traitor. Was he really worth the Japanese taking such great care of him? And arranging for ten people to protect him?

'Let me show you!' Zhang Yong didn't argue.

Although, he and Chen Gongshu didn't get along very well. But he didn't want to see Chen Gongshu take risks.

This Tianjinwei had many Japanese garrisons, and the operation had to be quick.

If the operation drags on, the Japanese may intervene. In fact, the Japanese have been looking for an excuse to start trouble.

'Good!'

Chen Gongshu really doesn't believe it.

You don't have clairvoyance or super hearing, so how can you tell which one is a Japanese spy?

Zhang Yong leads Chen Gongshu quietly closer to a red dot.

This red dot is quietly lurking on the roof. It's hidden very well. It almost blends in with the roof.

However, Zhang Yong found it.

Because the map surveillance locked onto it.

And, through the binoculars, he saw the Type 44 rifle.

Indeed, this rifle was the standard issue for the Japanese invaders' killers. Short. Lightweight. Extremely accurate. Smooth to operate.

'Damn it...'

Chen Gongshu muttered under his breath.

Seeing is believing. He had to believe Zhang Yong's words.

With this Japanese invader killer, if it fired continuously without warning, it could kill several people.

The point is, the enemy is on the roof, dominating the area.

Once the battle starts, if they try to retreat, they will be intercepted by the Japanese killer. The casualties could be very heavy.

If he is caught off guard, he, Chen Gongshu, may also die on the street.

'What else?'

'Follow me!'

Zhang Yong led Chen Gongshu to find the second Japanese killer.

This Japanese killer is even more exaggerated. He is actually hiding in a big tree. Although it is late autumn, the trees have not yet completely lost their leaves.

If it were not marked by the system, Zhang Yong would never have thought that there would be a Japanese killer hiding in the tree.

The tree seems to be growing in a certain courtyard. People outside simply cannot get close to it. Naturally, no one pays special attention to it.

It happens to be able to block the street from the side.

Of course, compared to the Japanese killer on the roof, this Japanese killer in the tree is easier to deal with.

In fact, ambushing someone in a tree is inherently dangerous.

As soon as the sniper fires, you can tell that it's from a tree. Then raise the Thompson submachine gun. Ta-ta-ta. One burst of bullets and it's done. Provided you've got the Thompson with you.

Keep looking.

The third Japanese soldier is actually hiding in a section of the sewer.

This one is even more impressive.

Unless there's gunfire outside, he won't appear. He'll never be discovered.

However, once he appears, he will immediately unleash a deadly attack. He will emerge from the sewer. And then cut off his attacker's escape route.

Find the fourth one...

The fifth one...

Chen Gongshu directly cancelled the plan of action.

He can't beat them.

He really can't beat them.

The Japanese invaders are clearly setting a trap!

They are deliberately luring the enemy into the trap.

If he really initiates a punitive action, he is afraid that he will fall into the enemy's net.

Frowning.

Looks like there's a problem.

'Actually...' Zhang Yong hesitated.

He had some ideas.

He had learned them from spy dramas from the future.

But he wasn't sure if Chen Gongshu wanted to hear them. If the other person didn't want to listen, he didn't want to bother.

He might as well just go it alone.

'Go on,'

'I suggest luring the snake out of its hole.'

'Explain,'

'Lure Fu Jiazhen out. As long as he leaves his lair, we'll have a chance.'

'Difficult.'

Chen Gongshu shook his head.

This Fu Jiazhen is quite afraid of death and will not leave easily.

'We can create panic.'

'What?'

'Since we have discovered the Japanese spies, we should get rid of them.'

'Oh?'

Chen Gongshu's eyes lit up.

That's right. Since Zhang Yong has pointed out the location of the lurking Japanese spies, it will not be difficult for him to get rid of them.

It would be difficult to kill Fu Jiazhen. But it would not be difficult to kill those Japanese spies. He was an expert at operations. With the exact location of the enemy, he would naturally find a way.

The key was that the ten Japanese killers did not monitor each other.

Their task was to protect Fu Jiazhen's lair, and they did not pay much attention to their own safety.

Many Japanese killers were outlaws. They did not care about their own lives.

As long as all ten Japanese killers are killed, Fu Jiazhen will definitely panic. He may no longer trust the Japanese. He may choose to hide in another place.

This is called 'knocking on the mountain to scare the tiger'.

As long as the traitor leaves the Tianpeng Theatre, there will be an opportunity to take action on the way.

'I'll lead the team!'

'You stay put!'

'I can't afford anything to go wrong!'

'You just need to give me the target location,'

Chen Gongshu gave Zhang Yong his orders.

Zhang Yong expressed his full compliance.

His ability was to give directions. He could do nothing else.

Chen Gongshu quickly arranged things and then led the men into action.

'Puff!'

In the darkness, there seemed to be a muffled sound.

Vaguely, it sounded like gunfire. But it didn't quite sound like it.

Soon, the body of a Japanese killer was dragged back.

One shot killed.

The bullet hit the head.

Zhang Yong was curious.

The gunshot just now was a bit special!

'This...'

'Look at this!'

Chen Gongshu handed Zhang Yong a Mauser.

The so-called Mauser is actually a Czech-made Mauser rifle. It is relatively short and has four hanging rings.

Because the quality of the steel is very good, the quality of this Mauser rifle is even higher than the original imported Mauser rifle. It is a very popular 7.92 mm calibre rifle.

Zhang Yong suddenly realised after looking at it.

It turned out that there was a damp zucchini tied to the front of the barrel?

It looks like a zucchini, doesn't it?

Or is it a loofah?

Anyway, this thing is a bit like a muffler, which can reduce some of the gunshot noise.

When shooting, the gunshot sounds like a deflating balloon.

It can be heard at short distances. Not at long distances.

'Po!'

Sure enough, there was a second muffled sound.

Then, the Japanese killer hiding in the tree was also killed.

This position is very bad.

Once the enemy spots you first, you are a living target.

No, he was killed by Ma Sihuan with one shot.

Still, the strange muffler did its job. The gunshot was not loud.

The loofah muffler that was soaked in water is a consumable. After firing a shot, the loofah muffler is useless. You have to replace it with a new one. After all, it is not a professional silencer.

'Po!'

The third one...

'Puff!'

The fourth...

Eventually, the tenth Japanese killer was taken out. The bodies were all dragged back.

The ten Type 44 rifles they used were also brought back. Such a good rifle, of course, should not be missed. It might come in handy sometime.

Unfortunately, the Type 44 rifle is still too long. It cannot be put into the carry space.

The Thompson submachine gun is also not possible. It is also too long.

Alas...
