Chapter five hundred and forty fourth emergency transfer
After the three female overseas Chinese were arrested by the police in the concession, the hotel returned to normal. Kawashima Jinwu, under the urging of Leiden, prepared to take the people out of the concession.
But just after leaving the hotel gate, a little man in black clothes hurriedly ran from a distance and shouted: "Your Majesty Colonel, something happened."
The little man was the Japanese agent who came to report the news. Because the matter was urgent, he rushed all the way and was out of breath.
"What happened?"
Seeing his agents in such a panic, Kawashima Jinwu was a little displeased. Because the people who came were just searching the concession and had no important mission at all, Kawashima Jinwu didn't think it was anything big.
"Colonel, more than a dozen of our people are dead, and they are all in the alley over there."
Seeing that Kawashima Jinwu was a little unhappy, the Japanese agent quickly reported the situation.
"What did you say, what happened?"
When he heard that more than a dozen people had died, Kawashima Jinwu's expression changed, and he stepped forward and grabbed the person's collar.
"We didn't know what was going on, but we heard gunfire, so we rushed to the location of the gunshot, but when we got there, we only saw a dozen corpses..."
The visitor quickly explained the situation and looked at Kawashima Jinwu nervously. After all, more than a dozen people died, which is not a small matter.
"Lead the way, let's go take a look."
Kawashima Jinwu didn't care about anything else and was about to go to the scene to have a look. He also had a bad feeling in his heart.
"Hi, Colonel, please come with me!"
After finishing speaking, Xiao Louluo led the way, and Kawashima Jinwu also led a team of agents to the scene of the incident.
Seeing this, Leiden on the side couldn't help but follow him impatiently.
The group of people soon arrived at the scene of the incident. At this time, Japanese agents had cordoned off the scene, and Kawashima Jinwu looked at the dozens of corpses on the ground with an ugly expression.
Wu Baozhong, who was behind Kawashima Jinwu, also saw more than a dozen corpses and couldn't help but become worried.
Wu Baozhong had seen all these dead Japanese agents and knew that they were hunting down the underground party, but now they all died here. It was really surprising.
Seeing Kawashima Jinwu standing there without moving, Wu Baozhong had no choice but to step forward to check the corpses. After looking at each corpse, his face became even more ugly.
Because Wu Baozhong saw the fatal parts of these corpses, and they were all shot. He was very familiar with this situation, which was exactly the style of military commanders.
As a traitor to the military, Wu Baozhong was naturally worried that the military would seek to settle a score with him, so when he saw these Japanese dying tragically on the streets, he naturally felt a sense of fear.
After all, a dozen Japanese were a considerable force, but if they were dealt with so easily, and the Japanese agents had no power to resist, the traitor would naturally be worried.
"Mr. Wu, do you see anything?"
Kawashima Jinwu asked in a cold tone. After all, those who died were all his men, so he was naturally very angry.
Moreover, these people died here, which means that the underground party has safely evacuated, and the remaining three targets are in the hands of the British. They need some negotiation to extradite them from the concession. The Japanese commander is naturally angry.
"Your Majesty Colonel, our men were all suddenly attacked and unfortunately died in battle. However, even if it was a sudden attack, the other party was able to deal with more than a dozen imperial troops so quickly without losing a single person. This shows that the other party was an elite force.
"
Wu Baozhong immediately answered, and his tone was very careful. After all, he knew that Kawashima Jinwu must be in a bad mood.
"Who do you think did this?"
Kawashima Jinwu already had some ideas, but he still had some doubts, so he asked Wu Baozhong.
"Your Majesty Colonel, every corpse has been snatched up for fear of leaving anyone alive. This kind of cruel method has always been the style of the military commander.
Moreover, the bullet casings left on the ground are all the same. Judging from the caliber, they should be Browning pistol bullets, so it must be someone from the military command."
Wu Baozhong had already concluded that the military commander was responsible for this incident, but he couldn't figure it out. After all, these Japanese were hunting down the underground party, so how could they provoke the military commander.
Moreover, this traitor was a little confused at this time and was worried that the military commander would come to his door. Because more than a dozen Japanese were easily killed by the military commander, Wu Baozhong did not believe that he could escape from the military commander's assassination.
"How can the military command and the underground party get mixed up? Don't they have their own subordinates, and they are not quite on the right track?"
Kawashima Jinwu also believed that it was the military commander who did it. After all, this style was very obvious, and the bullet casings on the ground also proved this. After all, only military commanders could use this kind of Browning pistol uniformly.
However, Kawashima Jinwu also understood the situation in China, so he felt strange about the military commander who came out halfway, because according to his understanding, when the military commander saw that the underground party was being hunted, it would be good not to add insult to injury, so how could he help?
"Your Majesty Colonel, I can't figure this out clearly, but I am sure that the underground party and those overseas Chinese should have been rescued by the military commanders."
Wu Baozhong was just a traitor to the military system, so naturally he couldn't figure out what was going on. Moreover, because of his worries, the traitor's mind was confused, and he couldn't figure it out even more.
At this time, Leiden suddenly said: "Mr. Kawashima, what happened was caused by your unauthorized entry into the concession, so I hope you will not send armed personnel into the concession in the future."
This white police chief does not welcome the Japanese. After all, the Japanese represent trouble.
Moreover, although the concession authorities did not want to offend the Japanese, they had been secretly helping the Chinese resistance, so they immediately took the opportunity to speak.
"Chief Leiden, our man died in the concession, should your police department give an explanation?"
The death of more than a dozen people had already made Kawashima Jinwu angry, and Layton was still looking for trouble. Naturally, the little devil was dissatisfied.
"Sorry, your people entered the concession illegally and were carrying weapons. We cannot guarantee their safety at all."
Seeing so many Japanese dead, Layton was very happy. After all, the white police chief also hated the Japanese, so he kept reading the joke.
"snort!"
Kawashima Jinwu had no choice. Although he was very tough, he did not dare to do anything to the British. He could only intimidate them.
But the current situation left Kawashima Jinwu with no time to argue with Layton. He had no choice but to snort, then start to deal with the aftermath, and immediately returned to the city, planning to use diplomatic channels to extradite the three female overseas Chinese.
At the same time, Zhao Chengde also arrived at the safe house that had just been prepared. He arrived with Zhang Hao first, and after the two left, he told the others: "Hurry and pack up, let's go to another place."
Zhao Chengde had rich experience and knew that the Japanese had found the Li Deshun Hotel, so the last team was likely to be captured by the Japanese, so he immediately arranged for a transfer.
"Comrade Chengde, what happened? Why is Xiao Liu injured?"
Ever since the two strangers came back from helping Zhao Chengde, the people inside were a little strange, especially seeing that Xiao Liu, an underground party member, was injured, which naturally made them even more strange.
"It's too late to explain. Move now."
Zhao Chengde didn't say much. After all, the situation was urgent and they had to evacuate first. Otherwise, if something went wrong, it would be all over.
Fortunately, for the sake of safety, only Zhao Wentian and Zhao Chengde knew about the two safe houses. The rest of the people did not know the location of the other safe house, so they could ensure safety by rushing to the other safe house.
"Yes, we will move immediately."
The operatives of the underground party, all well-trained elites, immediately started packing their things.
Although the other overseas Chinese didn't know what was going on, they saw Zhao Chengde's serious expression and didn't ask any more questions, and cooperated with several underground party members to pack their things.
It's just that these overseas Chinese can't help but feel a bit frustrated. After all, they were hunted down twice by the Japanese just after returning to China. No one would be happy.
It took a short time to pack everything up. Zhao Chengde ordered an operator to inquire about the situation, told him the address of the new safe house, and then led people to evacuate.
Although I was carrying a wounded person, there were more than a dozen people here, all of them young and middle-aged, and three of them were operatives of the underground party, so it didn't feel strenuous.
Although there were some people to avoid on the road, the distance between the two safe houses was not very far, so Zhao Chengde arrived at the new safe house twenty minutes later.
Near the safe house, there was a security officer from the underground party. When he saw Zhao Chengde coming with people, he immediately came over to meet him, sent the people into the safe house, and then went out to observe the situation.
"Comrade Chengde, what happened?"
Seeing Zhao Chengde suddenly arriving, Zhao Wentian was very surprised and had a bad premonition in his heart.
"Something happened. Not long after you left, the Japanese arrived. They even brought my neighbors with them to identify me..."
Zhao Chengde told the story again, with a hint of sadness in his tone.
"What happened to the last few people?"
Although there was an accident, Zhao Wentian did not panic too much and immediately asked the staff for comfort.
"I have sent people to inquire about the situation, but I estimate that the remaining people are very dangerous."
Zhao Chengde was very calm. After all, it had happened, and there was no use regretting it. He had to find a way to deal with the aftermath.
Hearing Zhao Chengde's words, Zhao Wentian sighed, looked at the injured underground party member, and immediately said: "We need to find a doctor for Xiao Liu, otherwise he may lose too much blood, which may be life-threatening."
Zhao Chengde nodded and said in agreement: "Yes, we must save Xiao Liu first. We will discuss other situations when our people come back. I hope they can bring back good news."
Although he said this, Zhao Chengde didn't have much hope in his heart. After all, after he left, gunfire rang out from the Li Deshun Hotel.
This old party member was a smart man. He knew that if the Japanese used their guns, they must have a specific target, so it would be difficult for the remaining people to escape.
Zhao Wentian also nodded, and then ordered people to find doctors to treat the wounded. He then looked at the other overseas Chinese and thought about how to make arrangements.
