Chapter 811 Japanese Patrol

  December 10, 1937.

Since the Guojun troops refused to surrender, the Japanese army launched an all-out attack on positions such as Yuhuatai, Tongjimen, Guanghuamen, and the 3rd Peak of Purple Mountain. The fighting became more intense than on the 9th.

On the morning of the same day, the intelligence officers of the underground party and the fruit party in Shanghai met again in the warehouse. Both parties handed over the Japanese patrol information they had collected to the dead man Gao Laosan.

The reason why I say dead ghost is because the other party did not survive the complications of severe burns and died in less than a day.

Gui Youguang didn't expect that such a strong man could not stand up to the torture, and he was immediately scolded by Zuo Zhong.

 Fortunately, I saw the Japanese thief safe and sound, but he was so frightened by the death of the boss that he sat in the interrogation chair and shivered.

“Don’t be afraid, look and see which one of them is the person you saw at the dock.”

 Ban Jun comforted the other party, took out a cigarette case from his pocket, and poured out a stack of small photos, including close-up photos of faces and photos taken secretly from a distance.

This surprised the Secret Service personnel present. In just one day, the other party was able to collect so much intelligence. The underground party really lived up to its reputation. No wonder the leader was so afraid of it.

Wu Chunyang, who came over after receiving the news, squinted his eyes and looked at the deputy director's friend. Then he took out a thick stack of photos and threw them to the frightened thief for identification.

 Ban Jun took a look and found that it was the files of the Japanese Resident Vigilante Group. It seemed that the intelligence agents of the national government had penetrated into the Japanese side, and at least they had channels to access higher-level documents.

But would Zuo Zhong expose such an important intelligence channel? He felt it was impossible. Just like he had "disinfected" the chief's intelligence, the other party must have done the same thing.

 This is something that every intelligence agency must do to protect personnel and sources. Sometimes a lot of content can be analyzed from a raw message.

The underground party and the fruit party have deep grievances, and there is both cooperation and struggle. Under the premise of jointly resisting Japan, cooperation is the mainstream, but we must not relax our vigilance because of this.

Perhaps guessing what he was thinking, Zuo Zhong suddenly raised his head and looked at him. The two smiled tacitly, and then heard the thief pointing at a photo and shouting.

 “He, that’s him!”

 “Are you sure? I got it wrong...”

Gui Youguang raised his whip and threatened in a ferocious manner that the mission must be 100% certain. If the target is wrong, the problem will be big.

The thief assured with a grimace: "Yes, he has a mole on the corner of his mouth. I saw it clearly at the dock that day. He was among the people driving."

Zuo Zhong took a step forward and looked at the photo pointed by the other party. In the photo, he saw a short and stocky man with short hair getting out of the car. He was wearing a suit and tie, and his eyes were extremely alert.

This is information about the underground party. There are only images and no written materials. He thought for a while and looked at Wu Chunyang: "Do we have any details about this person here? Tell us."

 “Yes, his name is Oyama Kyouichi.”

Wu Chunyang blurted out without looking at the file: "I am 34 years old this year, from Sendai. I came to Shanghai in the early 19th year of the Republic of China and later joined the patrol unit. I am still a Japanese citizen.

This person works in the Laozha Police Station in the Central District of the Concession and is responsible for investigating criminal cases. He lives on Sima Road not far from the Ministry of Industry and Commerce Bureau. He is the only one at home with no wife or children.

 Information shows that Kyouichi Oyama’s living habits are relatively regular and he goes to and from get off work on time every day. However, due to the nature of his work, no one knows where he goes. "

Zuo Zhong nodded slightly. He must go out to investigate the case. The other party could use this excuse to go out to perform intelligence tasks, and it would not arouse the suspicion of others at all.

Moreover, by taking advantage of his work, Oyama Kyouichi can also accumulate contacts, understand Shanghai's topography and social security situation, and help the Japanese control Shanghai faster.

 To say that this was not a special arrangement by the Japanese intelligence agency, he would not believe it even if he were beaten to death. In fact, most Japanese who immigrated overseas have the shadow of the Japanese government behind them.

 “What should we do next? Do we want to arrest him alive?”

 Ban Jun listened for a while and asked Zuo Zhong for his opinion.

 “It must be caught.”

Leo Dian nodded and shook his head: "The problem is how to arrest him. First of all, we have three arrest locations, namely the other party's workplace, home and on the way to work.

The capture house can be eliminated first. The control target will definitely be discovered there, and it is easy to make a big noise. Once the Japanese learn about it, our preliminary preparations will be in vain.

And arresting people outside requires long-term tracking. Even if the other person is not a professional intelligence officer, as an old patrolman, his vigilance must be high, so it is still inappropriate to do so.

What’s more, we don’t know whether he will contact his superiors at a fixed time. This is a common method used by Japanese intelligence agencies. As long as he misses the contact time, it means that he has been exposed.

 So it’s best to conduct a secret arrest at his home. If you do it after get off work, you can create at least an 8 to 6-hour window for interrogation. But this also has problems. Come on, look. "

As he spoke, he walked to a table, spread out a map of Shanghai, and pointed with his finger at the location of Oyama Kyouichi's residence:

"Lao Ban, the Fourth Horse Road extends from the Bund to Zangsheng Middle Road, with a total length of 1,500 meters. It is the main road of the concession. There are many government and economic institutions along the way, and the Ministry of Industry and Industry Bureau is located here.     This is also where Shanghai newspapers, periodicals and books Publishing center, the east section of the road has Zhonghua Bookstore, Commercial Press, Kaiming Bookstore, Times, and many Huamei newspapers, attracting many pedestrians.

There are dozens of large and small teahouses, stages, theaters, and restaurants in the western section. People come and go 24 hours a day with complex backgrounds. It is a key patrol and control area of ​​Laozha Prison.

When kidnapping a patrol officer in such a place, if a mistake is made and the other party is given the opportunity to call for help, the operators will be trapped. We have to consider this risk.

More importantly, we don’t know if there are early warning personnel around Oyama Kyouichi. If this hidden danger is not eliminated, even if he is caught, it will be of no avail and the Japanese’s plan to counterfeit banknotes will not be destroyed. "

"nice."

Ban Jun studied the map for a long time and said helplessly: "The little Japs are really thieves. You have experience in dealing with Japanese spies. What do you think should be done next? We will fully cooperate with you."

  But let’s talk first, we have a limited number of intelligence personnel in Shanghai, and there is no problem in collecting intelligence at ordinary times, but we may not be able to carry out operations, so we can only rely on the Secret Service in this regard. "

“Lao Ban, okay, let’s not talk about this between the two of us. What does your red team do? However, since this cooperation is mainly focused on the national government, there is really no reason for your party to be responsible for the action.”

Zuo Zhong said a few words with a faint smile, and then straightened his face: "I think there are two steps. The first step is to monitor and monitor the target around the clock, find out his detailed life patterns, and filter out suspicious calls and behaviors. .

The second step is to investigate the Laozha capture house and the surroundings of the target’s residence to look for possible early warning personnel. These are places that Oyama Kyouichi must go to. If I were Japanese and wanted to make sure the other party was safe, I would definitely go to these two places. arrange people.

At the same time, a small number of operational experts are dispatched to track him. It doesn’t matter if he is lost. The first goal is to avoid exposure and try to restore his movement trajectory, focusing on the places where he frequents.

 Only by doing the above work well can we solve the problems of whether to catch, how to catch, and where to catch. The key is not to alarm the Japanese. If the operation fails, we will have no chance to try again. "

 Ban Jun thought thoughtfully, this arrangement is very comprehensive, he has nothing to add, but based on his understanding of Zuo Zhong, the opponent cannot respond passively like this, and should take the initiative to attack.

Thinking of this, he chuckled: "Zuo Zhong, if you have any ideas, please tell me if you have any. This time when the two parties cooperate, let's be honest and honest, don't hide it."

 “Haha, you still understand me.”

Zuo Zhong laughed and nodded towards Wu Chunyang, who had remained silent: "Chunyang, let me test you, how can you open a breakthrough in this situation?"

The other party has been with him for so many years, and has long been able to take charge of his own affairs. After a while, the Secret Service will be upgraded to the Military Control Bureau, and it is time to make preparations for relevant personnel arrangements.

“Report, I think we need to start from the reason why Oyama Kyouichi went to the dock. There must be a deep-seated reason why he went to meet the technical expert Shinoda Saburo.

 Otherwise, there is no need for a latent person to take the risk of showing up. Considering his identity, the other person is likely to be involved in the establishment and location selection of the counterfeit banknote factory. "

Hearing Zuo Zhong’s question, Wu Chunyang first expressed his guess, and then explained the reasons in detail.

“Deputy Director, Mr. Ban, Kyouichi Oyama’s daily work is limited to a small area in the public concession. The circle is very narrow and he has no access to valuable information.

 But everything has its pros and cons. Long-term marginal work not only deprived him of the opportunity to obtain important intelligence, but also made him extremely familiar with the surrounding situation.

I have learned that banknote printing has certain requirements for sufficient water resources, stable power supply, and convenient transportation. Fire prevention and security also need to be taken into account.

 No one knows better than Kyouichi Oyama where the concession is suitable for establishing a counterfeit banknote factory. What we have to do is to conduct a secret investigation within the jurisdiction of Laozha Fang.

 The standards for the layout were compared with the location requirements of the printing factory, and we tried to ensure that no one was missed. The area in that area was not too large, so I thought something would be discovered. "

"good!"

 Ban Jun gave a thumbs up after listening, with a complicated expression. The party's intelligence personnel were more professional and had a keener sense of smell than he thought.

They should be careful when dealing with each other in the future. As long as there is a slight flaw, these agents with noses sharper than dogs will come to their door.

Zuo Zhong also showed a satisfied smile and took a picture of the map: "Then we will follow your advice. The war in Jinling is intensifying, and we must move quickly.

 Laoban, your party is responsible for one-third of the block, and the Secret Service is responsible for the rest. You and I will meet every day and make a briefing. Do you think this is okay? "

 “Okay, that’s it.”

Ban Jun nodded and immediately gave an answer.

Well, the boss suddenly wants to go to Qatar to watch the World Cup, so the time abroad will be longer this time, but the updates will not be interrupted.
