North-South Street, East-West Road, the horizontal and vertical streets are clear and clear, which makes it easier to remember.
But the roads in the mountain city obviously cannot be described in this way. Instead, they are complicated up and down, with paths, main roads, old-style streets, roads that have not been opened to traffic, roads that have been opened to traffic, and even road passes that clearly have no roads, but when you climb over them, a clear view suddenly opens up in front of you.
Memorizing these things is a compulsory course for members of the Military Command Headquarters.
If you're doing intelligence work and you can't even recognize the road, what else do you expect?
Therefore, many members of the bureau who came to the mountain city for the first time after moving to Chongqing were really troubled by these intricate roads, and they worked hard to write them down.
Among them, especially the members of the Operations Division, the director personally conducts random inspections, and those who fail will be punished to serve as a warning to others.
That's why Long Hao was so surprised by Song Shutang's speed.
He couldn't help but ask some questions to test, and found that the other party had indeed remembered it. Long Hao was even more surprised.
"There are people in the bureau who are faster than me, but they just don't show off." Song Shutang said.
There are many talented people in the Military Command Bureau, but when it comes to road memory, Song Shutang knew that Nie Hong was much better than him.
And when learning from Nie Hong, the other party also made it clear that his unique skill was not unique, and there were many people in the bureau who had this ability.
Long Hao didn't know, but it was just that everyone didn't want to reveal it. After all, if you remember it, you will remember it. Doesn't it need to be publicized?
Long Hao just thought it was Song Shutang's modesty, and the two of them got in the car and headed to Huixian Bridge.
After arriving at the place, we do the same as before, get off the car and walk.
Along the way, Song Shutang silently remembered the path he had taken, just in case something unexpected happened on the day of the arrest and his eyesight went dark.
Of course, the possibility of accidents is very slim, but any small hidden danger must be eliminated if he can.
Seeing that it was noon, Song Shutang stopped exploring and the two of them found a restaurant to eat.
During the meal, Long Hao whispered: "The two places they chose are very prosperous, so they should have done it intentionally."
"What do you think is the purpose of this choice?" Song Shutang asked.
"The location is convenient for busy roads, which makes it easier for them to take detours to see if they are being followed, and the appearance of vehicles is not unexpected. After all, these two bustling areas are where vehicles are concentrated."
"Any more?"
"And..." Long Hao continued to think.
"There are more pedestrians so they can come in advance and mix in the crowd to observe the people coming to meet them to see if there is anything strange. If they find something strange, they will evacuate directly." Long Hao gave his own answer.
Song Shutang affirmed Long Hao's answer.
After all, the location of the joints will not be arranged casually. It must be selected after considering many circumstances.
As for why some people choose to cooperate with the Japanese and become traitors!
Long Hao did not mention this issue.
There is no fixed answer to this question, but no matter the reason, making such a choice is wrong.
Everyone has to pay a price for this.
While the two were eating, a young man who looked like a student ran into the hotel, promoted the charity sale and donation event they were holding in Central Park today, and invited everyone to participate.
After the introduction, the young students bowed and left, rushing to the next store to promote.
Seeing people leaving, Song Shutang remembered that when he donated money before, he heard about a charity sale.
"You haven't participated in such an event, have you?" Long Hao asked.
"not yet."
"Anyway, I have nothing to do this afternoon. Are you interested in going and taking a look?"
"To Central Park?"
"It's just down from Cangping Street, not far."
Song Shutang was eager to learn all kinds of information about Shancheng. He nodded in agreement immediately and went to Central Park after finishing his meal and paying the bill.
Today is Song Shutang's treat. Yesterday I had Long Hao for a meal, so we should reciprocate the courtesy.
Driving down Cangping Street, you'll reach Central Park, which is indeed very close.
Today's Central Park can also be called Zhongshan Park. There is a statue of Mr. Sun Yat-sen at the entrance. Many people stop and walk to pay homage.
"Zhongshan Park holds many activities, including speeches, fund-raising, anti-Japanese propaganda performances, anti-enemy concerts, etc." Long Haojin introduced.
"You know me quite well. Have you ever participated in it?"
“We are so busy with work that we rarely have time to participate in these.”
While the two were talking, they came to the square of Zhongshan Park. A lot of people had gathered here, and there were also people holding banners with black characters on a white background.
One banner said "Sanseong Student Circle National Salvation Federation" and the other banner said "Sanseong Cultural Circle National Salvation Federation".
It seems that today's charity sale event was organized by these two federations.
This was Song Shutang's first time to participate in such an event. At this time, the event had already begun, and someone was holding a large copper loudspeaker to give a speech.
There are also many items that will be sold for charity soon. Most of them are calligraphy and painting, comics, woodcuts, wood carvings and other works, as well as some department stores and the like.
It is provided by two federations.
and other items, donated by all walks of life, and also raised by federations.
After the lecture, the event officially started. Unexpectedly, Song Shutang had everyone participating enthusiastically, and the scene was warm and touching.
Seeing this scene, Long Hao said with emotion: "We will definitely win, right?"
"Yes." Song Shutang's tone was firm.
Even if the road to victory is filled with obstacles, they firmly believe that victory will come.
The police on site maintained order to prevent citizens from being overly enthusiastic and causing crowding and injuries.
"Is there anything you want to buy?" Long Hao asked.
"Let's take a look around."
There was a layer of cloth on the ground, and items for the charity sale were placed on the cloth, with members of the federation responsible for introducing them.
The two of them walked around with the crowd and took a look. Many things were quite good, and some were even masterpieces by famous artists, all donated free of charge.
There was nothing needed, so I walked around in a circle, put money in the donation box, and left the square.
The activity continued, and people came to participate from time to time, but the two of them did not stay to join in the fun.
On the way back, Long Hao said while driving: "Now there are a lot of donation activities launched in Shancheng. The New Life Movement Committee initiated the one-cent-a-day donation campaign. Basically, the citizens came to participate, and some of them worked hard every day as coolies.
, after receiving the money, he will also donate a penny, and the money is all hard-earned."
It can be seen that Long Hao saw this scene with his own eyes, and now that he talks about it, he is quite emotional and feels all kinds of things in his heart.
"Do you want to go to the front line?" Song Shutang suddenly asked.
"How do you know?" Long Hao couldn't help but turn his head to look at Song Shutang while driving.
"Don't all passionate young people want to go to the front line?"
Long Hao knew that Song Shutang must have judged it through his own words, rather than what he said simply.
"It's a pity that I don't know if there is still a chance." Long Hao said with a smile.
"If you work hard, the effect will be the same."
Long Hao hesitated to speak, but Song Shutang could tell that he wanted to ask about the work in the enemy-occupied area, but he only held it in consideration of the Sword Holding Group.
Driving back to the "Anti-Japanese War Room", Song Shutang said before getting off the car: "Have a good rest tonight and come here on time at eight o'clock tomorrow. There will be no mistakes in the arrest operation."
"Understood." Long Hao responded seriously. Although both of them knew that the task was simple, they did not dare to take it lightly.
Song Shutang did it because of the habit he developed in the Sword Holding Group, while Long Hao wanted to prove his ability.
Song Shutang felt that there was nothing wrong with Long Hao's thoughts. He also wanted to prove himself at the beginning, which was a necessary psychological change when he first started working.
