Several days have passed since Fushimi Miya Mingyi disappeared in Caoxian County.
After the war, the Japanese troops in the surrounding counties had not been seen for a long time. Fushimi Miya Mingyi led his troops back. The Japanese troops in Cao County found the corpses of Japanese cavalry in Liugang, but only Fushimi Miya Mingyi was not found alive or dead. He immediately reported it to the garrison station.
The headquarters of the 4th Cavalry Brigade in Shangqiu.
Brigade commander Kojima Yoshizo immediately ordered the Japanese troops stationed in surrounding counties to search vigorously for traces of the Eighth Route Army that was fighting with the cavalry.
"Your Excellency, Brigade Commander, the imperial troops in Anyang, Kaifeng, Tai'an, Jining and other places have stated that they have not received any information from Fushimi Palace. Should we report it to our superiors?" the adjutant asked tentatively.
"Baga!" Kojima Yoshizo has not had a good sleep for several days. After hearing that there was still no news, he patted the table in frustration.
"At the beginning, I did not agree with Fushimi Miya Mingyi to serve in the brigade. The royal family members are closely related and cannot tolerate any mistakes. I continued to send telegrams and asked the imperial troops from all over the country to cooperate in searching for news about Fushimi Palace. No body was seen.
, it proves that there is no broken jade under the Fushimi Palace, and we must find him at all costs!"
"Hi!" the adjutant responded.
In Neihuang City, Dong Jiang led two soldiers from the reconnaissance company into Neihuang County in disguise. Dong Jiang was responsible for the important task of contacting the Japs.
After capturing Fushimi Miya Mingyi, Zhou Weihan thought about it and felt that he must sell it at a good price, so he wrote a letter in his own handwriting and asked Dong Jiang to deliver it to the Japanese military station.
That night, taking advantage of the sky, Dong Jiang quietly went outside the Japanese military station, tied the letter to a dart, and then swung the dart and nailed it to the watchtower at the entrance of the Japanese military station.
The resulting movement immediately attracted the attention of the Japanese soldiers standing guard: "Quick, quick, there's something going on!"
A group of Japanese and puppet troops roared out from the station and searched around, but there was no trace of anyone.
Inside the Japanese military station office.
Chida Hanbei listened to the report from his subordinates and carefully observed the letters on the table. He could not help but breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that the subordinates who had touched the letters did not feel any discomfort at all.
Chida Hanbei, a veteran, was extremely cautious. In these days, the Eighth Route Army used many methods to deal with the Japanese army. In addition to ambushes on the battlefield, the armed workers' team secretly carried out attacks and poisonings were not uncommon.
Then Chida Hanbei put on white gloves and opened the letter carefully.
After reading the contents of the letter, Chida Hanbei felt that a pie in the sky had fallen in front of his eyes, and a smile suddenly appeared on his face: "Yusi!"
"Sir, sir!"
"What's up?"
"The person who came here sent a letter at night. The city gates are now closed. Is there a large-scale search for suspicious outsiders in the city?"
The Japanese army issued good citizen certificates to residents in the city, and residents in each street were managed and supervised by security guards similar to those in the countryside.
If the Japanese army really conducts a large-scale search, it is really possible to find Dong Jiang and others.
However, Chida Hanbei rejected his subordinate's suggestion: "The person who wrote this letter is indeed the Eighth Route Army, but do you know what this letter is about?"
"Hi, it's news about Fushimi Palace"
Seeing his subordinates being so candid, Chida Hanbei showed a satisfied smile. Zhou Weihan's letter was not sealed because he was afraid that the grassroots Japanese soldiers would turn a blind eye.
"The Eighth Route Army has discovered Fushimi Palace's identity. In order not to affect Fushimi Palace's life safety, it's better not to make a big move!"
"Taniguchi-kun, the opportunity for you and me to be promoted is right in front of us. As long as we can handle this matter well, we will be promoted in the military rank and gain the friendship of Fushimi Palace!" After Hanbei Chida said, it seemed that
He saw a great future waving at him.
"Hi!" Hantaro Taniguchi responded.
"Sir, would you like to report it to the brigade headquarters immediately?"
"No, block this news immediately. Tomorrow afternoon I will personally go to the place mentioned in the letter to meet with someone!" Chida Hanbei said decisively.
The next afternoon.
Chida Hanbei personally led the team, and the Japanese troops in the city dispatched a tricycle and two trucks to a mountain forest outside Baijiaji in the eastern part of Neihuang.
After Chida Hanbei arrived, he saw no movement for a long time, just when he thought the Eighth Route Army would not appear.
In the forest, the birds started to stir, and then three masked men in casual clothes appeared.
The accompanying Japanese troops immediately raised their guns and surrounded them on both sides.
"You little devil, this is how you come to negotiate, mobilize troops, but I can't see any sincerity in negotiating!" Dong Jiang shouted to Chida Hanbei in Japanese.
Chida Hanbei waved his hand and signaled his Japanese troops to retreat, leaving only one adjutant beside him.
"Your army is pervasive in the countryside and destroys public order everywhere. I have to guard against it. How about it, can you see our sincerity now?"
Seeing that Dong Jiang was silent, Chida Hanbei continued: "Your army mentioned in the letter that Fushimi was captured by your army under the palace. There is an old saying in your country, words are unfounded, I want to see something worthy of me
Convincing evidence!”
"Isn't it just a token? It's easy to say!" Dong Jiang pursed his lips.
