"This is Pukou Hotel." Cheng Qianfan found Pukou Hotel on the map and drew a circle with a pencil.
“Pukou Hotel is located in Pujiang Street.”
"Pujiang Street is a main road with all connections. It can be said that people come and go, which is quite lively."
"This is a good thing for us," said Cheng Qianfan.
Song Fuguo and Sheng Shuyu both nodded, and the streets were lively, which also meant that it was beneficial for the brothers to hide and hide.
"Here, the main entrance of Pukou Hotel is about two hundred meters left, and Pujiang Street borders Fanding Road." Cheng Qianfan said, "You should pay attention here. There is a pseudo-Shanghai Police Bureau branch in the middle section of Fanding Road."
"Have you figured out the situation of this police branch?" asked Sheng Shuyu, "How many police officers are there? How many weapons and equipment are there?"
...
Cheng Qianfan looked at Li Hao.
"The Fanding Police Branch is not big or small, with more than 40 people, including two teams of daily patrol patrols, one team of about eight to ten people." Li Hao said from the side, "half of the ten patrol police officers carry long spears, and the other half are equipped with copper-headed batons."
"What gun?" Song Fuguo asked.
"The main focus is on the Hanyang Zhihezhong." Li Hao said, "These are all equipment seized by the Japanese army by our army and were later distributed to puppet military and police for use."
Song Fuguo nodded slightly and signaled Li Hao to continue.
"Do they have heavy firepower such as grenades, light machine guns, etc." Sheng Shuyu asked.
"It should, it shouldn't be." Li Hao thought for a while and said.
"The issue of Chief Sheng is very important." Cheng Qianfan reminded Li Hao, "Don't say 'should', it should be implemented as soon as possible."
"yes."
...
"From this police station on Fanding Road to Pukou Hotel." Sheng Shuyu asked, "How many minutes will it take to march urgently?"
"It usually takes ten minutes." The little Taoist priest continued on the side, "Of course, if these guys are not afraid of death after the gunfire sounds, and if they try hard to reinforce, they can arrive within five minutes."
Song Fuguo, Cheng Qianfan, Sheng Shuyu and others all laughed.
Most of us understand the virtues of traitors and policemen. These guys are generally not strong in fighting. If gunfire sounds are everywhere and the battle is fierce, it would be nice for these guys to arrive at the Pukou Hotel within ten minutes.
"For us, the biggest threat is actually not the police branch of Fanding Road." Cheng Qianfan said, "There are two biggest threats."
He pointed in a pencil at a place on the map.
"Pukou Hotel is right, at the junction of Pujiang Road and Xiandang Road." Cheng Qianfan said, "There is a sentinel point of the Japanese military police."
"There are regular arrangements for five Japanese military police."
"These five military police use Japanese military 38 rifles. According to the Japanese military's individual carrying plan, each soldier carries two grenades with him." Cheng Qianfan said, "This Japanese military military police post will be a threat to us."
"There is no grenade launcher?" Sheng Shuyu asked immediately.
When he was reorganizing the Zhejiang-Western Military Control Commission's Western Zhejiang Operation Team, he had fought with the Japanese search team. What impressed him the most was the Japanese grenade launcher. The Japanese grenade driver simply attacked wherever he was, and the threat was huge.
"No." Cheng Qianfan shook his head, "This is just a small outpost of the Japanese military police, not a direct combat unit."
Hearing this, Sheng Shuyu was obviously relieved.
...
"For us, another threat is Toda Kiichiro's guard." Cheng Qianfan said, "Old devil, perhaps because he was afraid of death, or because he liked to play pomp. There were a large number of guards when he traveled."
"How many people are there?" Song Fuguo asked immediately.
"Usually it's a class," said Cheng Qianfan, "However, we have been staring at the old devil Toda Kiichiro for a while. According to our understanding of him, on such a big day tomorrow, Toda Kiichiro will send more personnel, which should be the safety force of the two classes."
"Two squads of Japanese troops." Song Fuguo's expression became solemn.
In the organizational structure of the Japanese army, the squad is the most basic unit and a reflection of the Japanese army's basic combat effectiveness.
Each class consists of thirteen people.
The thirteen people included the squad leader, four machine gun shooters and eight riflemen.
At the same time, each squad is equipped with a light machine gun, and the machine gun team consists of four people, including the commander, the shooter and two deputy shooters carrying ammunition.
In addition, each squad has eight rifle soldiers, each with a standard rifle.
Especially in particularly strengthened troops, the reinforcement squad will also install an additional 50 mm grenade launcher carried by two people.
The two squads, according to the Japanese conventional configuration, were twenty-six people, including two light machine guns, and each soldier was equipped with two grenades. This was a very combat-capable enemy.
According to the combat capabilities of the Japanese army, it is difficult for two squads of Japanese army, even the national army, to take down a single Japanese army.
...
"Is there a grenade launcher?" Sheng Shuyu asked immediately.
Cheng Qianfan glanced at Sheng Shuyu and it seemed that Brother Sheng had suffered a great loss from the Japanese grenade launcher.
"The grenade launcher should not be there." Cheng Qianfan said, "There may be light machine guns."
He frowned and said, "The guard of Kiyichiro Toda has the greatest purpose of showing off his military power, not for combat purposes. Therefore, the Japanese army mainly carries rifles. As for whether there are light machine guns, it depends on the actual situation that day."
Cheng Qianfan lit a cigarette, took a sip and said, "This is unpredictable. Maybe Kiichiro Toda felt that it was very impressive to have a light machine gun on the left and right at the entrance of the hotel, and then he would do that."
Song Fuguo didn't find this joke funny, he said seriously, "Then we must speculate on the enemy with the greatest malice, and first assume that the enemy is equipped with two light machine guns."
"Yes." Cheng Qianfan nodded, "I will arrange my brothers to deal with heavy weapons such as light machine guns."
Song Fuguo and Sheng Shuyu looked at Cheng Qianfan. They should listen to such important things carefully and understand them.
"I have a general." Cheng Qianfan said, "I am especially good at playing with explosives."
...
"Map." Chikiharaji said to his subordinates.
A Japanese agent opened his carry-on file package and handed the map to Chikiharaji.
"This map..." Onode Masago looked at the map and showed a look of surprise.
"Is this a hand-drawn map by Chibetsu?" Sagami Uezusu couldn't help looking at Chibetsu.
Because neither the intelligence room's Masaogo Onode or Hirachi Chongyang I didn't know much about Shanghai, he was temporarily transferred to the security team.
"Yes." Chikiharaji nodded complacently, "This is a hand-drawn map I went to the vicinity of Qimin Hospital in person and conducted on-site surveys."
This time he entered the security team and protected the Gang Village General. Qiankiharaji attached great importance to this opportunity. He wanted to make a big splash and strive to win the appreciation of the general.
