The people from the 27th detachment were led by Cheng Ruien.
In order to rescue Zhong Qi, he felt that the best way was to storm the military police detachment, but this plan was rejected by the city committee.
Let’s not talk about whether we can capture the gendarmerie. Even if we capture the gendarmerie, what about rescuing Zhong Qi, the police department, and the British army?
Fortunately, the city committee quickly received the news that the bell flag would be moved at night.
Cheng Ruien immediately decided to change the rescue plan.
"According to the latest information we have received, Comrade Zhong Qi will leave the British Concession in Lu Chengzhou's car." Li Hui introduced the situation to Cheng Ruien.
"Lu Chengzhou? Where is his route?" Cheng Ruian paused when he heard the words "Lu Chengzhou".
He didn't expect that more than a year later, he would meet Lu Chengzhou again.
"It should first go from Zhongjie to the French Concession, then pass through the Japanese Concession, then along East Road and cross Jingang Bridge, then to Hebei Liujing Road, and finally arrive at the Garden Gendarmerie." Li Hui analyzed.
"Let's start at Jingang Bridge." Cheng Ruian is originally from Haigu and is very familiar with the terrain of Haigu.
As soon as Li Hui mentioned the clues, he immediately had a rough impression in his mind.
This route is indeed the best route to the Garden Gendarmerie. It takes the main roads. There are patrols everywhere in the concession, and the city is also full of police.
The King Kong Bridge is convenient for movement and retreat. Cars must slow down when passing by.
"Do you need our cooperation?" Li Hui asked.
"No need." Cheng Ruian shook his head. Comrades from the underground party are not good at action.
"Lu Chengzhou's car is a black Ford with license plate 3805 and a small British flag hanging on the front of the car. It can be recognized at a glance." Li Hui reminded.
"Is Lu Chengzhou driving the car?" Cheng Ruien suddenly asked.
This issue is more important to Cheng Ruien.
If Lu Chengzhou was driving the car, he would not introduce him and would take advantage of the opportunity to get rid of the traitor Lu Chengzhou.
There is no personal grudge between Cheng Ruian and Lu Chengzhou.
On the contrary, they were friends who grew up together. In middle school, they were like brothers.
However, everything changed after Lu Chengzhou was admitted to the police training institute.
Lu Chengzhou became no longer patriotic, and even worked for foreigners after graduation. Finally, he worked for the Japanese.
This made Cheng Ruian very angry. He felt that getting rid of Lu Chengzhou was the biggest responsibility to Lu Chengzhou.
"It should be." Li Hui said noncommittally. This was not mentioned in the intelligence, and he did not dare to jump to conclusions.
Lu Chengzhou didn't know that the 27th detachment had sent people to rescue them, and Cheng Ruian was leading the team.
If he knew, he would definitely avoid it.
Cheng Ruian doesn't know his identity. If he really rescues him, he may become a target by then.
When he went back to eat, Lu Chengzhou once again put information in the dead mailbox, and he speculated on his route.
Because there was an operation at night, Lu Chengzhou went to the military police detachment after dinner.
First, report to Nozaki. He has already arrived at the military police detachment. The car is parked in the alley behind and is ready to leave at any time.
"There is a situation. Zhong Qi is already dead." Nozaki said regretfully.
"Zhongqi?" Lu Chengzhou asked in surprise.
If he heard correctly, Nozaki did not know Zhong Qi's real name during the day. At most, he knew that Zhong Qi was a senior general of the Chinese Communist Party.
After all, Zhong Qi is being treated at Madaifu Hospital and cannot use his real name.
And now, Nozaki actually called out the word "Zhongqi".
Was there something wrong with Zhong Qi, or did Nozaki get the information from other channels?
If it was Zhong Qi who said it, it means Zhong Qi has rebelled.
And if Nozaki obtained the information from other channels, where did this other channel come from?
Why didn’t we know Zhong Qi’s true identity before, but only now do we know it?
As for Zhong Qi's death, Lu Chengzhou was not sure.
In intelligence agencies, any news may be false, and you need to make your own judgment to determine whether it is true or false.
If Zhong Qi rebels, then the news of his death is likely to be false.
"We just learned that he was the chief of staff of the 27th detachment. What a big fish. Unfortunately, he died in Sakai's hands." Nozaki said regretfully.
"So, there's no need to transfer?" Lu Chengzhou asked.
In the back garden of the gendarmerie detachment, countless corpses were buried, including traitors and anti-Japanese people. All of them had one thing in common. They had no tombstones and were used as fertilizer. After burial, the most they could do was plant trees on them.
"No, it goes according to plan. The Chinese Communist Party is very cunning, and everything that happened during the day was planned by them. The 27th Detachment has sent people, ready to rob people." Nozaki said with a sneer.
"Detachment 27? How come they are so well-informed?" Lu Chengzhou said in surprise.
In fact, what really surprised him was why Nozaki's information was so accurate?
Nozaki not only knew that the 27th Detachment had sent people, but also knew that they were going to rob people.
Zhong Qi definitely doesn't know this information.
In other words, Nozaki is likely to have other intelligence channels.
This made Lu Chengzhou secretly relieved. At least Comrade Zhong Qi did not rebel.
However, Lu Chengzhou soon began to worry again. If Zhong Qi had not rebelled, then what Nozaki said just now might be true: Zhong Qi might have died.
What's even more worrying is, where did Nozaki's information come from?
This last issue is what Lu Chengzhou is most worried about.
The fact that Nozaki was able to obtain such accurate information can only mean one thing: there is a traitor in the underground party.
Lu Chengzhou was very reluctant to draw such a conclusion, but from the moment Nozaki opened his mouth and spoke the first sentence, he actually had such worries in his heart.
However, the more information you have, the more accurate the conclusions you can draw.
"I don't know." Nozaki murmured.
He has also considered this issue for a long time.
It would be understandable if Detachment 27 just wanted to carry out an armed rescue or even attack the gendarmerie detachment.
However, Nozaki's latest intelligence showed that the 27th Detachment had given up attacking the military police detachment and was preparing to intercept the vehicle transporting the bell flag on the only way to the Garden Military Police.
So, how did they know that Zhong Qi was going to be transported?
"If everything during the day was caused by the underground party, I think they can guess that we will move this bell flag." Lu Chengzhou said suddenly.
"Perhaps, this is the most reasonable explanation." Nozaki nodded.
You know, even Lu Chengzhou didn't know the transportation route, and the underground party actually designed the ambush location. Could it be said that he provided intelligence to the underground party?
"Once Zhong Qi dies, their plans will be in vain." Lu Chengzhou said with a smile.
"No, stick to the original plan and move the bell flag tonight." Nozaki shook his head. Since the underground party wants to rob people, let them perform well.
