Chapter 924 Distress
The commander of Komura nodded with satisfaction and said, "This is indeed a good plan. Regardless of whether Miura Jun's assassination is successful or not, we have a way out. I agree with your plan."
Miura Jun received a hint from Hamada Yoshihiro. Based on the information he provided, he decided to take only two assistants to personally go to Tai'an to assassinate Gao Jiu, and the others went to sneak attack Taohua Mountain again.
In order to create an illusion for Gao Jiu, he also selected an older person among the agents and put his forged ID into his pocket. Once this person was killed by the Taohuashan guerrillas, they would think that Sanpu Jun had been eliminated, and Gao Jiu was likely to relax his vigilance, which increased his confidence in the secret assassination of Gao Jiu.
Just after Miura Jun and others set off, Hamada Yoshihiro sent a telegram to Gao Jiu.
Outside Tai'an City, Guojiazhuang.
The temporary command center of Gao Jiu, the head of the underground party, Gao Hong and others is located here.
On that day, Gao Jiu received a telegram from Hamada Yoshihiro, saying that he had found out that the person who attacked Gao Jiu was Miura Jun, the head of the Japanese Kanto Army's Special High School Section.
He reminded Gao Jiu that Miura Jun still had not given up on the assassination plan of Gao Jiu. As for what specific plan Miura Jun will adopt, Hamada Yoshihide is unknown. He reminded Gao Jiu to be more careful.
Most of the Japanese agents who went to Taohua Mountain to attack last time were killed, and some of them escaped. Gao Jiu knew that these people would not give up. Even if Hamada Yoshiji did not come to remind him, Gao Jiu himself and the Taohua Mountain guerrillas would be vigilant.
However, after all, Hamada Yoshihiro provided the origin of Japanese agents, and Gao Jiu still gained some gains.
After receiving the notice from Hamada Yoshihiro, Gao Jiu sent a telegram to Geng Hua, who was stationed in Taohua Mountain and Liu Shengyu from Shoucheng County, asking them to be more careful and guard against the attacks of Japanese agents.
At the same time, Ning Wen and Ning Wu also led a squadron of Taohuashan Special Forces to strengthen their defense work against the temporary command center in Guojiazhuang.
The information provided by Hamada Yoshihiro was still very accurate. Soon after, a group of Japanese agents attacked Taohua Mountain again.
This time, the Taohua Mountain guerrillas were prepared for a long time. They set up secret sentries on all the hills and discovered the whereabouts of Japanese agents in time. Geng Hua led a large group of troops to round up the Japanese agents, and finally wiped out all the Japanese agents who came to attack, and found Miupu Jun's ID on the Japanese agents.
As the saying goes, guns are easy to hide, but hidden arrows are hard to defend against. Zhang Quan, Wang Zhankui and others are worried about Gao Jiu's safety. When they heard that the leader of the Japanese army who came to attack the Kwantung Army's special high school class leader Miura Jun had been removed, they all breathed a sigh of relief.
At this time, Miupu Jun and two assistants had disguised themselves as ordinary people and headed to Tai'an City.
With the help of Adjutant Yoshiji Hamada, Miura Jun and others found a local traitor as a guide to find the location of the Anti-Japanese Armed Command.
Originally, the Shandong Military Region had not occupied Taiyuan City for a long time, and the surrounding villages did not fully mobilize the masses and establish a consolidated grassroots organization. After the Japanese army re-occupied Tai'an, they vigorously supported the local landlords, and the traitors established grassroots Zheng Quan such as the Maintenance Association. It can be said that this area is currently an enemy-occupied area, so it is very convenient for Sanpu Jun and others to do activities.
The traitor who led them was the locals, familiar with the terrain and people's conditions. Through his help, he really found Guojiazhuang, where the Anti-Japanese Army Command was located.
On the evening of that day, Sanpu Jun and others came to Gaolin Village in the northeast of Guojiazhuang. The traitors who led the way found the village's maintenance president and learned about the situation in Guojiazhuang through him.
The village chief found someone who had just been to Guojiazhuang and provided the situation of Guojiazhuang to Sanpu Jun and others.
This person didn't know who the anti-Japanese armed forces stationed in Guojiazhuang were, but he saw people from the underground anti-Japanese armed forces in the village, as well as people from the Taohuashan guerrillas wearing black uniforms. He saw tanks, armored vehicles, many cars, including several cars, and many war horses around the village.
Based on these situations, Sanpu Jun can basically determine that the command headquarters of the anti-Japanese armed forces besieging Tai'an City is in Guojiazhuang.
Miupu Jun guessed that Gao Jiu was probably in Guojiazhuang, but after all, no one saw it with his own eyes, and he did not dare to be completely sure. Now only Miupu Jun and his two assistants were left behind in the Japanese military agents from outside the pass. This was his last force at present. He did not dare to act rashly before he determined Gao Jiu's real whereabouts.
Miupu Jun considered it over and over again, believing that there were a large number of Japanese troops in Tai'an City, and that the anti-Japanese armed forces could not do it in a short period of time. Therefore, the anti-Japanese armed forces command in Guojiazhuang should not move for the time being. He decided to live in Gaolin Village first and try to find out whether Gao Jiu is in Guojiazhuang.
Miupu Jun discussed with the traitor maintenance president, hoping that he could find someone to enter Guojiazhuang to find out Gao Jiu's whereabouts. He took out a large sum of money to the traitor maintenance president and intimidated the guy.
Under the coercion and temptation, the traitor maintained that the president decided to inquire about this matter for Miupu Jun.
The traitor maintained the president's second daughter and married to Guojiazhuang. He went to Guojiazhuang under the name of visiting his daughter.
After coming to find Guojiazhuang, he was investigated by Taohuashan guerrillas wearing black uniforms. After finding out his identity, he let him enter Guojiazhuang.
After seeing his second daughter, President Fuji took out the photo of Gao Jiu provided to him by Miupu Jun from his close-fitting pocket and asked his daughter if he had seen this person.
It was a coincidence that when the coalition command entered Guojiazhuang, many tanks, armored vehicles and cars came, which aroused the curiosity of the villagers and came out to watch the fun, and the daughter of the president was also among them.
She saw a group of people surrounding a handsome young man into the Guo family compound in the village. The appearance of the young man left a deep impression on her.
After seeing Gao Jiu's photo, the daughter of the President Guan Chong said with certainty that this young man is exactly the same as the person in the photo.
The traitor kept the president as if he had found a treasure, so he returned to Gaolin Village and reported what he saw to Miupu Jun.
Miura Jun was very happy and gave the traitor a lot of money to maintain the president. He also agreed to support the traitor as the mayor in the future.
Although it was confirmed that Gao Jiu was in Guojiazhuang, Sanpu Jun felt a headache. The Taohua Mountain guerrillas must have strict security measures in the village. All the special forces members are not ordinary people, so it is definitely impossible to attack. Sanpu Jun has no way of knowing where Gao Jiu is in the Guojia compound.
Not to mention whether they can get close to the Guo family compound, even if they can enter at night, they cannot guarantee that they can find the real location of Gao Jiu.
Miupu Jun also thought that he would personally enter Guojiazhuang to disguise and conduct a reconnaissance with the help of a traitor, but after all, he was from another village and would definitely be subject to strict inspection after entering the village. He and his two assistants were in the Northeast all year round. Although they spoke Chinese well, they would immediately reveal their fill when they opened their mouths.
Miura Jun was helpless for a moment. While trying to figure out a way, he also asked the two assistants to think carefully to see if he could find a way to assassinate Gao Jiu.
The two assistants couldn't come up with any good ideas for a while.
Sanpu Jun decided to go to Guojiazhuang and observe it from a distance to see if he could find the way to enter Guojiazhuang.
At 5 a.m. that day, Sanpu Jun and others came outside Guojiazhuang accompanied by traitors.
In a small woods, they hid inside and waited until dawn, and looked towards Guojiazhuang with telescopes.
At around 8:30 am that day, Shan Pujun and others saw a group of people riding horses coming to Guojiazhuang.
It can be seen clearly in the telescope, including people with a high status in the underground party, which can be seen from the guards behind them.
From 8:30 am to 9:30 am, Sanpu Jun observed several groups of such people.
He judged that this must be an important meeting to be held in Guojiazhuang, so the heads and minds of these underground party anti-Japanese armed forces came to attend the meeting.
With this discovery, Miura Jun had a bold idea.
Since the Third Division of the Puppet Security Army, led by Wei Liming, joined the underground party anti-Japanese armed forces and became the Independent Division of the Lunan Military Region, Yang Jiong was transferred to the Independent Division and served as the Zheng Committee of the Division. That day, he received an order and sent him to the Guojiazhuang coalition temporary command headquarters to attend the combat meeting.
Yang Jiong was the first person Gao Jiu met in the underground party. He has been a partner with Jiang Xiaomei for a long time. The two have a close relationship and their old friends are very intimate. During the meeting, Gao Jiu took time to talk to Yang Jiong.
Gao Jiu was very concerned about Yang Jiong and asked him if he had any difficulties in the independent division, whether it was weapons, ammunition and materials, he would strongly support him.
Yang Jiong said that he had no difficulties, and he expressed his gratitude to Gao Jiu.
He and Jiang Xiaomei have been partners for a long time, and the two have established a good friendship. He always stands up for Jiang Xiaomei in his heart.
When he saw Gao Jiu, he wanted to mention Jiang Xiaomei. But he was a calm and implicit person, and he just said some news about Jiang Xiaomei indirectly.
During the combat meeting, news came from the Independent Division that the officers and soldiers of the Independent Division had some conflicts with the local people due to some trivial matters.
After all, the Independent Division was transformed from the security army. Some habits developed by the officers and soldiers for a long time cannot be completely changed in a short period of time, so there are often incidents that disturb the people. As Zheng's member of the Independent Division responsible for the ideological Zheng Zhi work, he must deal with such matters immediately to avoid intensifying conflicts between the military and the civilians.
Yang Jiong discussed with Wei Liming, the commander of the Independent Division, and decided to end the meeting early and let him go back to deal with the incident that disturbed the people.
Yang Jiong left Guojiazhuang under the escort of three guards and headed to the Independent Division's garrison.
Yang Jiong and others passed by the field path outside Gaolin Village. When passing by a canal, several muzzles suddenly stretched out from the bushes behind the canal and launched an attack on the guards beside Yang Jiong.
Because the distance was too close, the guards were caught off guard and were shot and fell down one after another.
Seeing this, Yang Jiong hurriedly drew his gun and prepared to fight back. At this time, Sanpu Jun and two agents jumped up, pointed the gun at Yang Jiong, and in Chinese with a Northeast accent, he ordered Yang Jiong to put down his weapon.
Yang Jiong had just pulled out his gun and the bullet had not yet loaded. Facing the three muzzles, he knew that resistance was futile, so he put down his weapon.
Miupu Jun and others escorted Yang Jiong and rode a horse to leave quickly.
Since this place is far away from Guojiazhuang, no one from the anti-Japanese armed forces heard the gunshots. It was not until two hours later that the people from the independent division saw that Yang Jiong had not come over and contacted the division commander Wei Liming on the phone. Gao Jiu and others realized that something might have happened to Yang Jiong.
So Gao Jiu ordered the special forces to search along the road where Yang Jiong left, and found Yang Jiong's sacrificed guards, but Yang Jiong himself lost his trace.
Yang Jiong is an important figure in the Lunan Military Region. When something happened to him, everyone couldn't help but feel a little nervous.
The underground party leaders Gao Hong, Wei Liming and others solicited Gao Jiu's opinions to see how to deal with this matter.
Gao Jiu and Yang Jiong had a deep relationship. When something happened to Yang Jiong, Gao Jiu felt very sad. While ordering the Taohuashan guerrillas to cooperate with the troops of the Lunan Military Region to conduct a large-scale search around the accident site, he comforted everyone and said that Yang Jiong's body was not found at the scene, which means that Yang Jiong is still alive. Needless to say, the person who kidnapped him would definitely have news. As long as there was a definite news, Gao Jiu would definitely rescue the person himself.
Everyone felt a little more relieved when they heard Gao Jiu say this.
Such a thing has also reminded everyone that important figures in each unit and command organs at all levels must be vigilant, strengthen their vigilance, and prevent similar things from happening again.
Miupu Jun and two agents kidnapped Yang Jiong and took him into a cave. They found out Yang Jiong's true identity from the relevant information in the briefcase that Yang Jiong was carrying.
Miupu Jun and others were as if they had gained a treasure and believed that they could use Yang Jiong to make a big fuss.
In order to find out the relationship between Yang Jiong and Gao Jiu, Miura Jun sent a telegram to the contact person arranged by Hamada Yoshihiro to ask about the relationship between Yang Jiong and Gao Jiu to judge the importance of Yang Jiong to Gao Jiu.
This incident was reported to Hamada Yoshihiro. Yang Jiong and Jiang Xiaomei are also Hamada Yoshihiro's old rivals. Hamada Yoshihiro is very familiar with them. He knows that Yang Jiong has a close relationship with Gao Jiu, and for Gao Jiu, he is an important figure who must be rescued.
Hamada Yoshinori had now understood Miura Jun’s intention, so he asked the adjutant to tell Miura Jun about what he knew about Yang Jiong.
