Since Shanghai was about to fall, there would be great chaos after the Japanese army occupied Shanghai, so Li Yunsheng decided to let everyone lurk in the French Concession again, and then consider how to complete the task.
After making the decision, they began to arrange for people to enter the French Concession in batches. There were safe houses prepared before, and most of the people had entered the French Concession, so they were quickly settled.
After most people left, Zhang Hao said: "Section Chief, most of the people have made arrangements, and now we are the only ones left."
Li Yunsheng said disappointedly: "We are also preparing to withdraw. This station will not come again in the future." After saying that, he looked at the yard and sighed in his heart, thinking that after leaving Shanghai today, he will be here in the future.
If I can't come back openly, I will hate the little Japanese devil even more.
Zhang Hao saw that Li Yunsheng was not in a high mood, so he comforted him: "Section Chief, you don't have to be sad. We will continue to fight against the Japanese, and everyone is still counting on you."
After listening to Zhang Hao's words, Li Yunsheng felt a little better, and then led the people to leave the city of Shanghai and rush to the French Concession.
Half an hour later, Li Yunsheng and his party arrived at the stronghold of the French Concession.
Since all the wounded had been placed here before, when Li Yunsheng arrived, he first visited Liu Gang and other wounded, and then asked Xu Bing: "With so many wounded here, there is no problem, right?"
Xu Bing replied softly: "There was no problem. People from the police station came to take a look. Fortunately, the people leading the team were Boss Zhao's men. We had met before, so they didn't say much.
I briefly explained a few words and left."
Li Yunsheng was not surprised by this. After all, so many injured people entered the concession, which was quite conspicuous and could not be hidden from the local gangsters in the concession. However, Zhao Yinrong and the police in the concession were both Chinese and should not be troublesome, so he said: "This
This place was originally a place for the wounded to recuperate, but now the plan has changed and we have new tasks, so we need to stay here for a while."
Xu Bing said with a smile: "Section Chief, this courtyard is very big. Even a hundred people can live there, let alone there are only sixty or seventy of us."
Li Yunsheng nodded, and then began to arrange people. Fortunately, although the courtyard was a bit dilapidated, it was really big, so living here would not seem crowded.
After the arrangements were made, Li Yunsheng called several of his confidants together and explained the reason for entering the concession.
Except for Zhang Hao, everyone else didn't know why they suddenly entered the concession, so everyone was a little confused. After Li Yunsheng finished speaking, they understood the reason.
However, this task was very arduous, so as soon as Li Yunsheng finished speaking, Wang Min asked: "Section Chief, Shanghai is about to become the territory of Little Japan. It will not be easy for us to do anything. Moreover, Zhengjin Bank is located in Hongkou District.
Now that the Japanese army has placed martial law in the core area of the Japanese people, it is difficult for us to go to Hongkou District, and it is even more difficult for us to enter the Zhengjin Bank."
Li Yunsheng said seriously: "The order has been issued. We have no room for bargaining, so we must go all out to complete the task."
Wang Min also knew this truth, so he sighed and said: "Then section chief, what should we do?"
The status gap between the two people is getting bigger and bigger. In addition, Wang Min is now Li Yunsheng's direct subordinate, so he changed his title and respects Li Yunsheng more and more.
Hearing Wang Min's words, Li Yunsheng said softly: "Now is a critical moment, so the Japanese will impose martial law, but after they capture Shanghai, they will relax. Then we will find an opportunity to check the situation.
, and then I’m thinking of a way.”
After listening to Li Yunsheng's words, several people started talking about it, but they didn't have any ideas.
Li Yunsheng was not surprised when he saw that several of his confidants were unable to do anything. After all, the difficulty of this task was too high and he still needed to find a solution on his own. So he ordered his subordinates to stay calm these days and not cause trouble, so he let them leave.
The next day, Li Yunsheng received an order for a full retreat, and the Nationalist Government officially declared the fall of Shanghai, and Japan subsequently occupied the entire Shanghai.
After the Japanese occupied Shanghai, they had to hunt down the Chinese army while maintaining public order in Shanghai. Therefore, their military strength was somewhat insufficient, and the martial law in Hongkou District was not so strict.
On the third day after the Japanese army occupied Shanghai, martial law was completely lifted in Hongkou District. Seeing this, Li Yunsheng took Zhang Hao and entered Hongkou District pretending to be a Japanese ronin.
Upon entering Hongkou District, Li Yunsheng found that there were broken walls everywhere and many Japanese were cleaning up the damaged houses.
When we arrived near Zhengjin Bank, we found that the situation here was not much better. After all, when the Chinese army attacked before, they had no scruples, causing a lot of buildings here to be destroyed.
However, Zhengjin Bank is a reinforced concrete building, which is very strong and has not been damaged. It may be for this reason that the Japanese store the large amounts of looted property here.
Since Zhengjin Bank contains a large amount of property, there are more than a dozen Japanese soldiers guarding the door. Moreover, it is very close to the Marine Corps headquarters, so Japanese troops patrol every few minutes.
Li Yunsheng walked around Zhengjin Bank twice and found no loopholes. However, his behavior was noticed by the Japanese soldiers guarding the door of the bank. So the Japanese sergeant came over and asked vigilantly: "You two
Who is this person and why is he walking around here?"
Seeing that the Japanese were so vigilant, Li Yunsheng was also surprised. He didn't expect that he would arouse suspicion just by walking around the bank twice.
Fortunately, Li Yunsheng had been through a lot of storms, and he said wisely: "Sir, I am an immigrant from the Northeast, but not long after I arrived in Shanghai, I encountered this war. My previous home and workplace were here, but now I have been
It was destroyed by the war, so I felt a little sad, so I walked around here."
The Japanese sergeant looked at Li Yunsheng and found that he was not panicking at all, so he no longer doubted it. After all, his home was destroyed by the war, and it was normal to feel a little sad. He said, "I see, but this is a very important place. If nothing happens,
, don’t walk back and forth here,” after saying that, he returned to the bank entrance and continued to stand guard.
Seeing that the Japanese sergeant had no suspicion, Li Yunsheng breathed a sigh of relief, but he did not dare to stay where he was, so he took Zhang Hao back to the stronghold.
After returning to the stronghold, Wang Min and others came over and asked: "Section Chief, how is the situation? Is there any chance to take action?"
Li Yunsheng shook his head and sighed: "There are more than a dozen Japanese soldiers guarding the entrance of Zhengjin Bank. These guards are very vigilant and we have no chance to attack."
Hearing this result, several people showed helpless expressions. Seeing this, Zhao Shanhe immediately said: "Section Chief, if we act at night and take advantage of the darkness, is there any chance to kill these people quietly?"
"
Li Yunsheng thought for a moment, shook his head again, and said depressedly: "Zhengjin Bank is very close to the Marine Corps headquarters. Every few minutes, Japanese patrols pass by, so we have no chance at all."
As soon as Li Yunsheng finished speaking, the others began to discuss again. At this time, Xu Bing said: "Section Chief, how about we dig tunnels and quietly dig under Zhengjin Bank, and then bury a large amount of them?"
of explosives and gasoline to blow up the Zhengjin Bank.”
As soon as Xu Bing's words came out, Zhao Shanhe said unceremoniously: "Miss Xu, the vaults of ordinary banks are built with very thick special steel plates and are buried deep underground. No matter what method is used, they cannot be blown up, so you
The method simply won’t work.”
Xu Bing smiled awkwardly and then stopped talking.
At this time, Zhang Hao said: "The floor of the bank's lobby must not be made of very thick special steel plates. We can dig into the lobby, then destroy the door of the vault and blow up the contents of the vault."
After hearing Zhang Hao's words, everyone started thinking. After a while, Li Yunsheng said: "This is feasible, but there are still two problems. It is not easy to destroy the door of the treasury in a short time.
It is impossible to do it at all, and judging from the posture of the Japanese, many people will be left to guard even at night. How can we dig in quietly without alerting them? This is also a difficult problem."
As soon as Li Yunsheng finished speaking, Zhang Hao said hesitantly: "Section Chief, these two problems are difficult to solve, so what should we do?"
Li Yunsheng thought for a while and then said calmly: "The war in Shanghai has just ended, so the Japanese are so cautious. Let's wait and see if the Japanese will still be so cautious after a while."
Zhang Hao immediately said: "Section Chief, if the delay is very long, will Virgo have any objections?"
Li Yunsheng thought for a moment, and then said confidently: "This task is very difficult and not easy to complete, and Virgo has not given me a time limit, so there will be no problem if I delay for a while."
Hearing what Li Yunsheng said, Zhang Hao felt relieved, and then several people discussed for a while and then left.
A few days later, the urban area of Shanghai completely calmed down, but what made Li Yunsheng depressed was that the Japanese soldiers guarding the entrance of Zhengjin Bank had not yet withdrawn.
Seeing that the Japanese still sent troops to protect Zhengjin Bank, Zhang Hao said distressedly: "Section Chief, there are always Japanese soldiers protecting the bank now, and they are very cautious. There is nothing we can do."
Li Yunsheng was also a little helpless about this. After thinking for a while, he said: "Let's wait for a few days. If there is really no other way, we can only take risks."
Seeing that Li Yunsheng had no choice, Zhang Hao's expression became even more distressed, and he became a little worried.
