The first thing Xu Dalong saw was the Governor's Mansion. He couldn't help but feel happy and worried. He was happy that he was familiar with the terrain here, which was very helpful for his breakout. What he was worried about was that the address of the venue would be within the Military Police Headquarters.
In that case, it will be even more difficult to break through.
Fortunately, the bus did not drive into the military police headquarters, but stopped in front of a five-story building nearby.
This is a hotel. It turns out that they chose this hotel as the venue for the meeting. Although this is not the gendarmerie compound, it is only separated from the gendarmerie by a wall, so the level of danger is basically the same.
There were many Japanese soldiers standing in front of the hotel, but not a single puppet soldier or policeman. Obviously, the Japanese could not trust them.
The inspection in front of the hotel gate is very strict. Even ladies’ handbags and even reporters’ cameras must be carefully inspected.
Xu Dalong knew this, and he did not carry any weapons or anything that might arouse suspicion. After inspection, he successfully entered the hotel door.
Soon after, the conference began. The conference was held in the lobby of the hotel. All the guests were standing inside, and the podium was located in the corridor on the second floor.
In the corridor on the second floor, there were two Japanese officers standing. One was Kazuo Harada, the section chief of the Special High School Section of the Japanese Military Police Headquarters in Taiyuan, and the other was Nagashima Tayu, the operations section of the Special High School Section.
All arrangements were planned by Shimadayu.
Even the layout in the hotel lobby was specially chosen by Shimada Island, so that the people on the podium can be completely separated from the people below. At the same time, they can observe the people below from a high position and easily detect any changes below.
Xu Dalong noticed these two Japanese officers and observed them with the corner of his eyes. From their positions, expressions, and behavior, he could tell that they were the security commanders in charge of this conference. Through today's series of twists and turns,
, Xu Dalong felt that these two guys were not simple, and they were not ruthless characters that were easy to deal with, so he paid special attention to them.
The conference began, and a fat man wearing the uniform of Lieutenant General Huang Xiejun came onto the stage. Xu Dalong had seen his photo and knew that he was Li Fuying, the protagonist of this conference.
A Japanese major general first introduced Li Fuying's identity to the audience downstairs.
Li Fuying saluted the audience below in a decent manner. Under the leadership of the Japanese major general, Xu Dalong and others sparsely clapped their hands several times.
The Japanese Major General, on behalf of the Japanese Shanxi First Army Headquarters, announced the letter of appointment and then awarded Li Fuying a medal.
Next, Li Fuying gave a speech.
In order to expand publicity, the Japanese used a live broadcast of this conference. They used high-power broadcast equipment so that everyone with a radio could hear the speech.
Second Theater Command Chief's Department.
The chief of staff and others were standing in front of the radio. When they heard Li Fuying starting to speak on the radio, they all looked very ugly.
Headquarters.
The head of the headquarters, chief of staff, division commander and others were also listening to the radio. They had received reports that Xu Dalong was going to assassinate Li Fuying at this conference. Everyone was very nervous, looking forward to hearing the good news they were looking forward to.
.
Zhaojiayu, Independent Regiment Headquarters.
Li Yunlong, Zhao Gang and Zhang Dabiao were also listening to the radio. They did not know that Xu Dalong was going to assassinate Li Fuying at this conference. The faces of the three of them were also ugly. Since the Japanese held this conference, this is enough to prove that Xu Dalong did not
We were able to get rid of Li Fuying before the conference.
Li Yunlong said: "What did Xu Dalong do? I have always been optimistic about him, why did I fail this time?"
Zhao Gang was also in a bad mood. He didn't know what to say, so he remained silent.
Zhang Dabiao said: "This is terrible. Xu Dalong represents our Eighth Route Army and our independent regiment, who went to Taiyuan to perform tasks. If we fail to complete the task, we will lose face."
Hotel.
Xu Dalong looked at Li Fuying who was giving a speech and was ready to take action.
He was standing behind the crowd. He moved quietly, preparing to pretend to go to the toilet, and then went up to the second floor to look for an opportunity to assassinate Li Fuying.
Just as he was about to leave, he saw Li Fuying take out a handkerchief from his pocket and wipe the sweat on his forehead.
Xu Dalong felt a little surprised. Although there were many people in the hall, it was only May and it was not so hot. This guy seemed a little nervous.
After Li Fuying wiped the sweat from her head, she put the handkerchief into her pocket and continued her speech.
Xu Dalong looked at him carefully again and couldn't help being shocked. He saw that the black mole on Li Fuying's face was gone.
The mole on his face was obviously glued on, and this guy turned out to be a stand-in for Li Fuying.
The fake Li Fuying continued to give a speech, and Xu Dalong looked anxious because he didn't know where the real Li Fuying was.
Suddenly, he thought of a problem: This fake Li Fuying looked very similar to Li Fuying, and his voice was exactly the same.
When the Japanese asked Li Fuying to speak, they must use his own voice. Otherwise, the generals and officers and soldiers of the Jinsui Army who were familiar with him would question Li Fuying's situation, and the Japanese would lose the opportunity to arrange Li Fuying's speech.
The role of speech.
The fake Li Fuying's speaking voice is actually the same as the real Li Fuying. This is too coincidental. They should be lip-syncing, which means Li Fuying should be nearby.
Xu Dalong judged that as long as he followed the wire connecting the microphone, he would be able to find Li Fuying.
Thinking of this, he glanced at the two Japanese officers upstairs and found that they were patrolling the people below. As long as he moved outward, he would definitely attract their attention.
Xu Dalong had no time to hesitate anymore. He turned around and walked towards a plainclothes agent standing not far away. He asked: "Sir, where is the toilet?"
The agents present had been informed in advance that if someone went to the restroom, they would follow him. So, the agent took Xu Dalong to the restroom.
Shimada Yu, who was upstairs, really noticed Xu Dalong. He couldn't help but frown, and his hook-like eyes were fixed on Xu Dalong.
