"That's good, let's make an agreement like this. I'll come find him and make sure he's reliable. I'll take all the responsibility afterwards. Anyway, my ten lives are not enough for the Japanese to kill. It doesn't matter if I have one more or one less." Jin
Jiu laughed and said.
Jin Gu was determined to fight the Japanese to the bitter end. Every time he accomplished something, he would add hope for national independence and liberation in the hearts of the Korean people.
Lu Ming admired Jin Jiu very much. He was very generous. No matter what happened, he could settle it in just a few words and he would never regret it afterwards.
Of course, Lu Ming gave them a lot of money, and now all the people in the provisional government of the Republic of Korea are taken care of by the Cao Gang. It is also Lu Ming's favor.
After agreeing on a plan of action with Jin Jiu, Lu Ming did not stop and took An Gonggen's car back to downtown Shanghai.
They first went to the location of the arsenal mentioned by Kenta, and sure enough they saw a fence outside a lonely warehouse, and a watchtower outside the fence. There was a Japanese soldier standing guard in the watchtower, and there was another soldier outside the watchtower.
The two looked over from the car and saw two soldiers standing guard outside the warehouse, and a crooked machine gun set up in the yard.
The soldiers were holding Type 38 rifles.
To the east of the warehouse, there are several temporary simple houses built, which probably house eight other people.
"How about it? If you were asked to take down these twelve people without anyone noticing, is there any way?" Lu Ming asked.
"A forceful attack will definitely not work. Most of the Japanese would rather die than surrender. Don't underestimate these twelve people. Once they cooperate, they can withstand our attack for half an hour. If you want to reduce the casualty rate, you still have to outsmart them.
." An Gonggen is relatively experienced in this area.
"You said the Japanese are very cunning, how can we outwit them?" Lu Ming asked.
"Of course it's a trick. You forgot that we all speak Japanese. When the time comes, we will wear Japanese military uniforms and pretend to be temporarily inspecting the arsenal. After gathering them, we will use our old method last time to kill them all with ether.
Put it down." An Gonggen said.
"Well, this method is feasible. In addition to clothing, do you have Japanese weapons?" Lu Ming paid great attention to details.
"Of course there are, although there are not many. More than a dozen Type 38 rifles and southern pistols are easy to get. We also have Japanese military uniforms." An Gonggen said with a smile.
"Don't rush to take action. Observe for two days first. Once you confirm that everything is exactly the same as what my friend said, you can then decide to take action." Lu Ming said.
"Don't worry, I won't be reckless. But on the night of the operation, Caobang's boat must not be compromised. If the things cannot be transported out, it will be in vain." An Gonggen said.
"Don't worry, the ship will be waiting for you at Wusongkou Pier in advance." Lu Ming said with a smile.
He left the specific implementation of this operation to An Gonggen and his brothers, and the transportation of the goods was also carried out by the North Koreans. On the surface, it seemed that it was entirely a retaliatory action planned by Jin Gu and carried out by the North Koreans.
"Don't mention it. If this is really a relatively important arsenal for the Japanese, I have to admire their courage and courage to carry out the empty city strategy. It is quite similar to the Three Kingdoms." An Gonggen said with a smile.
Lu Ming nodded. If he were just passing by here, no one would know that this is a very important arsenal. They probably thought that there was nothing valuable in it, otherwise there were not many people guarding it.
The Japanese are loose on the outside and tight on the inside. They also have a set of strict defense measures inside, including machine guns and alarm bells that lead directly to the Marine Corps headquarters.
Although there is only one machine gun set up in the yard, this is an arsenal, and ten or eight machine guns can be brought out at any time.
There is no shortage of ammunition. If there are a few machine guns to block attacks from all directions, and unlimited bullets, it will be no problem to defend for a day, let alone an hour, unless the attacking side has mortars.
Lu Ming and An Gonggen had been observing there for a full hour, and they basically knew how to break the situation.
After returning home, Lu Ming came to Mr. Dong's room and discussed with Mr. Dong and An Yi how to outwit the Japanese military camp.
"How could such a good thing happen? Are the Japanese fools?" An Yi couldn't believe it.
"The Japanese are not stupid. That place looks poorly defended, but it is definitely not that easy to capture." Lu Ming expressed his opinion.
"That's right. Unless the army is used, it will be difficult to win. The Japanese know that it is impossible for the army to suddenly come to Shanghai, so they are not resorting to an empty city strategy." Mr. Dong agreed with Lu Ming.
"Are An Gonggen and the others pretending to be Japanese? They are not Japanese after all." An Yi was a little worried. If there were any flaws, they would be in big trouble.
"Probably not. The person who caused the Hongkou Park bombing last time was the Korean Yun Bongji. The Japanese did not realize that he was a Korean at all. The Japanese engaged in imperialization in North Korea and forced the Koreans to learn Japanese from an early age. Koreans and Koreans
There is basically no difference between the Japanese." Lu Ming said with a smile.
"Well, there's no need to worry, but you still have to be careful." Mr. Dong breathed a sigh of relief.
"But there is a situation that I have to discuss with you. Once An Gonggen and the others succeed in hijacking, I will immediately secretly transport this batch of weapons to Jiangxi after being loaded on the ship, nominally for the Central Army..." Lu Ming said.
"What, you want to give these weapons to the enemy?" An Yi was stunned.
"Don't worry, listen to me. After the Japanese arsenal is taken away, the Republic of China government will definitely have to investigate the whereabouts of this batch of weapons. Maybe the ship will be intercepted before it reaches Jiangxi. The flag I am flying is to send it to the central government
Army, the journey must be smooth." Lu Ming said with a bitter smile.
"Then, you will really give arms to the Kuomintang troops in Jiangxi and let them strangle our troops?" An Yi was furious.
"Don't rush to talk, let Mr. Lu finish what he said." Mr. Dong was also anxious, but he believed that Lu Ming must have his own ideas, and it was impossible for the arms to be really given to the Kuomintang troops.
"How is it possible to send it to them? My plan is to transport it to Jiangxi in a big way in the name of sending arms to Kang Ze's Rangers. Agree on a time and place. Your people will attack the transport convoy midway. My people will not resist and let it go.
You rob most of the arms and leave only one-third." Lu Ming said with a smile.
"Hey, don't tell me, this is really a good idea. The road is safer. It's a bit unfair to only leave them one-third of the weapons and ammunition." An Yi curled her lips and said.
"I have also considered this. The weapons in the arsenal must be divided into three, six or nine grades. You take away all the advanced and powerful ones, and leave some bad ones for them. I will take them to report."
"This move of yours is called secretly attacking Chen Cang. It's a good idea." Mr. Dong praised.
"There is another question. Can your people concentrate their attacks and tear a hole in Kangze's defense zone in advance to open a passage? In this case, the weapons and ammunition can be robbed and transported into the mountains quickly." Lu Ming considered the problem.
Always more detailed.
"This is definitely no problem, but we still need to ask our superiors for instructions." An Yi said.
"How many weapons, ammunition and medicines can be inside? It's not an empty warehouse." Mr. Dong was still a little worried.
"Don't worry, these are the weapons and ammunition prepared by the Japanese when they attacked Shanghai, as well as medicines to treat injured soldiers. Do you think we can take less?" Lu Ming said.
"Then we've caught a big fish, enough to last us two years." Mr. Dong said excitedly.
"By the way, I also want to donate 50,000 silver dollars to you. Isn't it convenient for your hometown to use banknotes?" Lu Ming said.
"It's best to show up in the ocean and don't need a banknote." An Yi said with a loud voice.
Although banknotes are easy to carry, the amount is too large and inconvenient to spend. You have to go to a bank to exchange them for cash. If you go down the mountain to exchange them, it increases the risk factor.
There is no problem in using banknotes in Shanghai, because there are banks everywhere and it is convenient to exchange money. However, since the base area is near some remote mountainous areas, it is still convenient to use silver coins.
"Okay, I'll ask the bank to prepare 50,000 silver dollars and transport them there together when the time comes." Lu Ming said.
After seeing the warehouse with his own eyes, Lu Ming felt at ease.
He felt at ease when An Gonggen was doing things. An Gonggen and his brothers were never ambiguous when it came to dealing with the Japanese.
Lu Ming felt regretful that he could not come forward in person or watch the process of intercepting the arsenal.
There may be thousands of Koreans on site by then, and there will always be someone who can recognize him or remember his face. In that case, he will be in danger and will bring a lot of trouble to Sheng's industry.
This incident must create a false impression that the Japanese arsenal was intercepted and was completely planned by Kim Koo and carried out by the North Koreans as a retaliatory action.
Of course, the Republic of China government will definitely be able to find out who did this in the end, and it will be useless if Lu Ming doesn't send weapons to Kang Ze.
Therefore, sending weapons and ammunition to Kangze became Lu Ming's excuse and retreat. As for the weapons and ammunition being hijacked by Communist troops on the way, it only shows that the Kuomintang troops stationed in Jiangxi are incompetent.
