Jinling Yihe Road former Sixth District Management Office.

This building was built before the war. The courtyard covers an area of ​​600 square meters. There is one European-style building with brick and wood structure, one auxiliary building and two old houses. After the Japanese occupied Jinling, it became the Japanese Gendarmerie Command.

According to the division of labor, the Japanese military police in Jinling had three main departments, which were commanding the work of Xianzuo, responsible for clearing the countryside, inspecting transportation, patrolling the streets, and declaring martial law.

Command the secret investigation team activities, collect intelligence, plainclothes reconnaissance, arrest and kill anti-Japanese people, and command the investigation section of the secret service agency of the Xinguo government.

And the public security section that controls materials, handles and issues entry and exit permits, and manages public places.

Every day, many "rebels" were caught here and disappeared. People from the Republic of China and foreigners who passed by this magic cave all lowered their heads to avoid being noticed by the Japanese soldiers at the door.

One hour before the arrest of Zheng Shisong, the deputy chief of the Shanghai District of the Military Command, on the 76th, in the compound of the Japanese Gendarmerie Command, Masao Yajima, the chief of the investigation section, stood in front of hundreds of members of the secret investigation team and a row of cars with a stern face. With the final deployment of operations.

"The location of today's operation is the Wuliang Temple in Qixia Mountain. The task is to arrest and control all the people in the Taoist temple. You have photos of important targets in your hands. You must not let any one go.

Let me remind everyone that the opponents this time are members of the Shancheng Military Command, professional intelligence personnel, and they will shoot and kill any rebels, except for the head of Jinling District, who is the Taoist of Xuancheng.

We need to pry his mouth open and find out the identities of other personnel in Jinling District. This is related to the stability of the empire in Central China and the progress of the frontline operations. Do you understand? "

"Hay!"

"Set off."

Following Masao Yajima's order, members of the secret investigation team boarded the vehicle one by one, and soon cars and trucks drove out of the Gendarmerie Headquarters and headed straight for Qixia Mountain.

Masao Yajima sat in the first car with sharp eyes, recalling in his mind the urgent telegram sent from Shanghai last night from the Special Committee on China.

The telegram described in detail the appearance and characteristics of the person in charge of the Jinling District of the Military Command and some personnel, especially one of which pointed out that someone had seen the person in charge of the Jinling District of the Military Command wearing Shifang shoes.

This is a kind of Taoist clothing, which helped them lock their target range in Taoist temples. There are not too many Taoist temples in Jinling, so the Gendarmerie Command successfully found Xuancheng Taoist and Wuliang Temple.

Although Shanghai did not disclose the source of this information, Yajima Masao speculated that the Special Committee on China must have captured important personnel of the military command, otherwise the intelligence would not be so accurate.

Thinking about it carefully, the Taoist temple is indeed a good hiding place, and the Taoist priest is also a good cover identity. He has free time and can enter and leave most public places and private houses.

Moreover, compared with monks, Taoist priests do not need to be ordained on the top of their heads and do not need to leave scars, which is very important for intelligence personnel. Having scars means that there are clues for tracing.

Yajima Masao looked at his watch and urged the driver to continue to speed up. If he wants to catch Wuliangguan all at once, he must be prepared in advance. If the target runs into Qixia Mountain, it will be troublesome.

The convoy with the ointment┴flag ran rampant on the streets of Jinling, knocking down countless roadside stalls, and the people ran away in fright. .

Half an hour later, Masao Yajima and his team parked their car at the foot of the mountain, pretending to be believers who came to offer incense, and the troops moved quickly towards Wuliang Temple in four directions, and an invisible large net was slowly unfolded.

At the same time, Taoist Xuancheng, who was doing morning class in Wuliangguan, suddenly had a slight twitch in his right eye, and he put down the clock in a disturbed mood, picked up a small wooden stick and knocked on the chime at hand.

"Ding~~"

The crisp sound of the chime echoed continuously in the Sanqing Hall, and the incense candles lit up bursts of green smoke, blocking the face of the statue of the Sanqing Patriarch, making it hard to see clearly.

Taoist Xuancheng raised his head, looked at the legendary "immortals" who rescued the suffering, and murmured in his heart: If you are really useful, why don't you lower the mysterious fire to wipe out the evil in this world.

Thinking of this, he smiled self-deprecatingly. As a spy, he had pretended to be a Taoist priest for a long time, and sometimes he really couldn't tell his identity. How did this group of clay and wood statues save the Republic of China.

Putting down the bell, Taoist Xuancheng stood up and walked to the main hall for a while, and then he was about to go back to his room, but he immediately put his feet back, looking at the empty Taoist temple, and frowned.

At this time in the past, the Taoist temple was full of believers. Even if the gate of Wuliang Temple is only open for half a day now, the number of people should not be so small. The situation seems a little bit wrong.

He called his second apprentice loudly and asked if there had been any telegrams from Shancheng in the past two days. According to the intelligence network of the military command, if something happened to Jinling, Shancheng should know.

The second apprentice shook his head after listening: "Master, after changing the electronic tube last time, the condition of the radio station is not ideal, and the signal is very noisy. I tried several times during the contact time but still haven't received the signal from the headquarters.

It’s definitely not going to work like this. I checked and repaired it yesterday and found that it’s still a problem with the electronic tube. Should I store the radio and spare electrical materials in another place? If this continues, the loss will be too great, and it will easily cause trouble. "

Taoist Xuancheng was a little helpless, the radio was their only means of communication with Shancheng, in order to ensure that important information could be sent to the headquarters as soon as possible, they placed the radio in a secret room in Wuliangguan, and it could be activated at any time.

Since there is no sunshine all year round, the secret room is very humid. As for another place, there are so many pilgrims in Wuliangguan every day, and there are people everywhere. susceptible to moisture.

He thought about it for a while, and finally decided to send the radio station outside the Taoist temple and find someone to be on duty 24 hours a day, so as not to miss the information from the headquarters. At this stage, the effective transmission of information is the lifeline of Jinling District.

Xuancheng Taoist made a decisive decision and told the two apprentices: "There is no need to delay, I will give you all the spare electrical materials in a while, and after dark, you will transport the radio station and electrical materials to the south slope to find a place to hide.

The south slope is facing the sun, and the environment is much drier than in the temple. I will ask your senior brother to build a thatched hut nearby. From now on, you will live there and wait for my order, and you will say that you want to practice. "

He quickly made an arrangement, and then looked around: "By the way, where is your senior brother? When the time comes, you will act together and try to hide the radio station as much as possible so that no one will find it."

"Okay, master, brother Da┴ went down the mountain early in the morning, so he should come back quickly..."

"boom!"

Before the second apprentice finished speaking, a gunshot came from outside the Taoist temple, breaking the tranquility of Qixia Mountain. The few pilgrims ran away in fright, and soon disappeared without a trace.

Taoist Xuancheng's complexion changed drastically. As an experienced old intelligence officer, he immediately heard the sound of a Japanese-made southern pistol, and Wuliangguan was exposed!
He also knew that the gunshot was from the big apprentice, but in fact it was the warning sent by the captain of the Jinling District Action Team with his life. The other party was an elite from the old intelligence department.

Before he could grieve, he grabbed the collar of the second apprentice and shouted sharply: "Go and generate electricity to the mountain city. After the end, destroy the code book and destroy the radio station. I will bring other people to buy time for you."

After finishing speaking, the Xuancheng Taoist in a Taoist robe flicked his sleeves and returned to the main hall. He bent down and gestured to the statue of the Patriarch of the Three Qing Dynasty with both hands, then nimbly jumped onto the altar and pushed┴down the statue.

The statue of the god was torn apart in the dust, revealing a pile of guns and ammunition bundled tightly with straw and tarpaulin. It is indeed easy to break the weapon, but now I don't care too much.

After hearing the gunshots, the other Taoist priests and handymen of Wuliangguan also rushed into the hall according to the contingency plan, consciously picked up their weapons and tore off the straw, unfolded the oilcloth, and silently began to assemble the guns and load the bullets.

In a short while, 4 Czechs and more Thomsons were assembled, and the waists of those present were stuffed with spare ammunition and grenades.

"Everyone is divided into four groups, relying on the wall to fight back, and must persist for 5 minutes."

Taoist Xuancheng held a submachine gun in one hand, said something expressionless and ran out, he didn't encourage or comfort, everyone knew that they couldn't leave today.

If the Japanese knew that Wuliangguan was where the Jinling District of the Military Command was located, they would have made thorough preparations before taking action. Retreating at this time would be like throwing themselves into a trap. Instead of dying, it is better to fight hard.

When the Jinling District agents heard the order, their faces were indifferent, they pulled the bolts one after another, followed behind him without looking back, strode out of the hall, and then climbed up the wall with various tools they had prepared.

Outside the wall, Yajima Masao looked at the seriously injured Taoist priest, and viciously slapped the person who shot before, just to catch one person, but it shocked all the remaining targets, which is really stupid.

The members of the secret investigation team who were beaten were also very wronged. The other party did not use any weapons and killed five or six of them with bare hands. This kind of dangerous person cannot be caught without a gun.

Yajima Masao didn't care about this. After venting his anger, he waved his hand and signaled to start the attack. The intelligence showed that there were less than ten people in the Taoist temple, and there were hundreds of people on his side. The battle would be over in a short time.

But things didn't develop as he had imagined. Just as the Japanese operatives approached Wuliangguan head-on, they were beaten back by a burst of ferocious firepower, leaving behind a few corpses and retreating in a panic.

The situation on the other three sides is similar. The secret investigation team, which used to be rampant in the past, was beaten and fled. They are well-trained, but no matter how well-trained they are, they are mortals with naked eyes and cannot stop bullets.

"Baga! Czech style!"

Gritting his teeth, Masao Yajima said word by word, these agents of the Republic of China are so rampant, they even hid such heavy firepower in Jinling, isn't it afraid that he will call in the field troops?

Of course, he just thought about it. After all, it is not an honor to ask for tactical guidance. For the sake of military exploits and future, he ignored the objections of his subordinates and ordered a forcible assault again.

The Japanese spies rushed over in a dense manner, looking very imposing, but unfortunately there were no bunkers outside the four walls of Wuliang Temple, and the only trees that were left had been cleared long ago.

Taoist Xuancheng and others stood condescendingly on the top of the wall and fired. They had a clear view of the shooting range. Like hunting, they shot one Japanese and easily repelled the enemy again.

Masao Yajima was so angry that he was half dead. Facing the corpses on the ground, he dragged the captured Jinling District Action Team leader to stand at a safe distance, and drew his pistol against the opponent's forehead.
