543 Gold and silver are everywhere. Armed forces seize cash flow.
The apes on both sides of the strait can't stop crying, and the boat has passed the Ten Thousand Mountains.
The speed of water transportation is quite fast, especially since the water of the Yellow River flows to the Bohai Sea, the speed of water transport down the river is even faster.
While Kong Jie and John were chatting happily, the merchant ship had already arrived in the Zhongtiao Mountain area.
You can even vaguely hear the sound of cannons coming from Zhongtiao Mountain.
When I saw the ferry from a distance, I found that troops wearing Japanese military uniforms were already stationed there.
John was a little emotional: "When we were transported here by river, this was still the area where you Chinese were stationed, but now it has fallen into the hands of the Japanese army. The rapid defeat of these Chinese troops is really surprising."
What can Kong Jie say about this? He can only sigh bitterly in his heart.
Followed by Ye Min and other commandos disguised as businessmen, looking at the Japanese army that had occupied the ferry, they all cursed the incompetence of the national army in their hearts.
As time went by, the merchant ships gradually approached the ferry, which had been blocked by Japanese ships.
The team members looked slightly nervous.
John turned his head and said: "Xu, just stay on the boat while I go to negotiate with the Japanese army. Don't worry, there will be no problem."
Then, the blocked merchant ship was forced to anchor, and John took several businessmen off the ship from the gangplank.
The two parties met and began negotiations.
Kong Jie couldn't hear clearly what was said specifically, and could only faintly hear a few words of curses in English by John.
Finally, John turned his head angrily, pointed at the American flag on the boat, and seemed to say:
Little devil, see clearly, that is the American flag, this is an American merchant ship, I am an American!
Ye Min said enviously: "Boss, when will we be able to be like this John, swearing in front of the Japs, and the Japs don't dare to do anything to him? This must be a great feeling, right?"
Kong Jie smiled and scolded: "Get out of here!"
As he spoke, he sighed, "A weak country has no diplomacy! When your motherland is strong enough, even the people at the lowest level can straighten their backs outside."
Ye Mindao: "Boss, isn't this why we fight bloody battles!"
Kong Jie was startled, then laughed, "Well said."
While the two were talking, John seemed to have reached an agreement with the Japanese, and then returned to the ship, cursing.
"Fuck——"
Ye Min was confused: "Boss, what is John talking about? That's the only word he said back and forth."
Kong Jie said: "I'm scolding my mother!"
Ye Min said happily: "It turns out that Americans can also curse women, Fa Ke, hehe, this word is quite interesting."
After boarding the ship, John ordered the merchant ship to continue setting off, and the Japanese readily relaxed and allowed the merchant ship to leave.
"John, what's going on?" Kong Jie, who met John, asked.
John angrily cursed: "These little Japanese are taking advantage of the situation. My merchant ships have passed through this place many times. This is the first time that I have to pay the so-called customs duties. These bastards, bastards——"
Kong Jie understood. No wonder he had seen the businessman next to John take a box and hand it to the Japanese army. It seemed to be the so-called customs clearance. The amount should be quite large, otherwise John would not curse in pain.
The little devils on both sides of the ship watched the American merchant ship gradually move away, with proud expressions on their faces.
Quite a bit like a villain succeeding.
It seems to be saying, so what if it is as powerful as the United States? You still have to keep your tail between your legs. This is the victory of the Japanese Empire.
Kong Jie secretly laughed in his heart, laugh, keep laughing, little devils, you will soon know what a stupid decision it will be to release this merchant ship this time.
……
After passing through the Yellow River Basin in the Zhongtiao Mountain area, it took the better part of ten days for the merchant ship to travel to the intersection with the canal, and then follow the canal all the way to the Tianjin Concession.
The merchant ship also encountered some obstructions from the Japanese army along the way, but was quickly protected by its identity as an American merchant ship.
It took more than two days, and the merchant ship arrived at around 10 a.m. on the third day.
This is also the first time Kong Jie has come to the concession.
Compared with counties such as Yangquan and Shouyang, the concession is naturally much more prosperous.
The blending of cultures from different countries, buildings of various styles, ever-flowing roads and bustling streets.
Of course, in Kong Jie's view, this kind of prosperity is pathological prosperity. Even if it is prosperity, it belongs to the prosperity of the invaders and the Western devils.
I didn’t see the beggars sleeping on the streets under the high-rise buildings, and the oppressed and driven refugees amidst the feasting and entertainment.
Most of these sufferers, sufferers, exploited and oppressed people have a common identity - Chinese.
"This is the product of other countries' invasion of China, and is ironclad evidence that our motherland has been humiliated. The prosperity here should not make us feel shocked and yearned, but more humiliating and angry."
Kong Jie said this when communicating with the commandos in private.
The team members all clenched their fists and kept Kong Jie's words in their hearts.
After arriving at the place, John, as a local guide, enthusiastically and generously arranged a hotel for Kong Jie and his party in the American Concession.
Kong Jie took the team members to temporarily stay in the hotel, and at the same time strengthened the vigilance of the surrounding areas, and immediately started secretly collecting intelligence to be on guard against unexpected situations at any time.
In the evening of that day, Kong Jie secretly gathered the team members in the room to make task arrangements.
"Mumu, this is the address and contact person given by the brigade headquarters. Tomorrow you will find Boss Zhou of the daily necessities store according to the address to hand over. After contacting the underground party comrades, confirm the intelligence information and find out the current status of the professors and overseas Chinese representatives we need to escort.
Where and what the specific situation is, discuss the specific handover and escort plan."
Kong Jie handed a note to the wood.
Wood is flexible when faced with problems and has a sharp mind, making it the best suited to perform this task.
"Yes!" Mu Mu responded. He took the note, memorized the contents on the note, then threw the note into his mouth, chewed it, and swallowed it.
Then, Kong Jie told the team members about the arms business that he and John had discussed.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
Ye Min knew Kong Jie's thoughts best and guessed: "Captain, this American wants to exchange arms for gold and silver, but we don't have these things on hand. Are you trying to hit the bank here?"
Kong Jie smiled and scolded: "You're the only one with a quick mind."
"No, are you really coming?" Ye Min was dumbfounded.
Mu Mu on the side smiled and said: "Deputy team leader, I think the team leader is right. We have finally come here, so we can't come in vain. Back then, banks in small counties like Yangquan and Shouyang robbed so many coins.
What is this place? This is a concession area, which can basically be said to be the most prosperous area in China. If he can capture the bank here with force, the harvest will be absolutely amazing."
Cao Zhengdao: "That is, our training in seizing the cash flow and material flow in enemy-occupied areas with arms cannot be in vain. We haven't done anything for a long time."
Ye Min understood everyone's thoughts and cursed: "Are you all addicted to robbing?"
Mu Mu said: "The action is against the clock, the thrilling process, the harvest is huge, deputy team, who is not addicted to this? Besides, grab the little devil, if you don't grab, you will get nothing, and you will get through this village."
But there is no such place."
Everyone's eyes focused on Kong Jie, and Ye Mind said, "Okay, commander, just give the order!"
Kong Jie thought for a moment and said: "Comrades, this time we use armed force to seize the cash flow of banks in Tianjin. This is inevitable."
"First, we came all the way from Shanxi, covering a distance of five to six hundred miles. The news that we had armed forces to intercept the Japanese's cash flow near Yangquan was naturally impossible to spread. This is exactly what we did.
Good opportunity."
"Second, if we want to complete this mission and escort the professors and representatives away smoothly, it is best to divert the attention of the Japanese. How to divert their attention? What better way than to intercept their bank?
?"
"It's best to let this place become a mess. The enemy's attention will be distracted. How can they think that we will take the opportunity to transfer personnel?"
"Third, and this is the most important point, the Americans have the arms we want, but they want gold and silver. Where can we steal them? The best way is to borrow some from the devil's bank."<
/p>
"Anyway, we have a small number of people. Even if the armed seizure is successful, we can't take away the large amount of gold and silver coins, and they will be easily exposed. It is better to use them in practice and buy all the factories run by the foreigners in the concession.
, at least we have to open up business avenues."
Ye Min smiled and said: "Captain, I heard what you said, we must do this armed seizure of the bank!"
Kong Jie said: "We must do it, but we must not take it lightly. You must know that this is different from a county like Yangquan, and the defense measures of each bank will only be more thorough."
"Not only will there be military guards, but the safes in the bank and the insurance of the vault will be very difficult to break through."
"That thing can't be opened manually. A bomb would make too much noise, and it would be difficult to control the amount. It is estimated that a cutting machine will be used. All of these require sufficient preparation in advance."
"In short, this armed action to seize bank cash flow must be strictly planned and carried out step by step. From the specific survey before the action, checking the locations, to formulating a series of action plans, as well as evacuation plans and follow-up contingency plans, not one of them can be
Fall."
"You have to make sure you don't take action. If you do take action, you have to do it quickly and quickly, so that the Japanese have no time to recover."
"Yes -" the team members responded in a low voice.
Kong Jie thought for a while and then explained: "By the way, I heard that the military commander here does not do serious business, and even engages in smuggling with the little devils in private. This is too outrageous. This is the old rule. This time, armed forces seize bank cash.
When the war broke out, some flaws were deliberately exposed so that the devils could put their finger on the head of the military commander."
"Let the military commander cheer up and do the right things."
The team members nodded tacitly, all laughing secretly in their hearts, the leader was ready to trick people again.
