Chapter 200 Prisoner of War Camp

"This guy is only 24 years old?"

Zhou Sen received the telegram from Anna, glanced at it, and read it in surprise. In the Japanese army, age and seniority are also very important.

Generally, it would be good to be a second lieutenant at this age, but this Ando Morihou has actually become a captain. If this guy is not from aristocratic background, he is really a person of a heaven-defying level.

If the other party was a nobleman, it would be reasonable to explain it, and Shibuya Saburo could order him to carry out a rescue without hesitating to expose his identity.

The height is not very high, the Japanese are about the same height, which is normal.

As for the appearance, judging from the description in the telegram, it should be above average. The problem is how to confirm the identity of the other party. There is no special identification mark in the telegram, even if it is a "birthmark".

If the other party has a special identity, even if he finds a way to meet him, the other party may not necessarily admit it out of caution.

Of course, it does not rule out that the other party does not have experience in this area.

"Call Shibuya-sensei, let's find out where the person is locked up first, and then try to make contact and contact. As for how to rescue, we are still not sure..."

"That's it?"

"That's it. No one can guarantee this kind of thing." Zhou Sen nodded.

"I see."

If you want to rescue, you have to go through at least three steps. The first step is to determine the location of the person, their physical condition, and the strength of the guards in the prison, and contact the rescued person. The second step is the rescue operation. This step is The most difficult step, the third step, is to escape. The means of escape, the route, the dangers that may be encountered on the road, etc. must be taken into consideration.

This thing can definitely be done, but Anna and the rescued people must believe that everything they see is real.

……

Ice City, Okada Yokohama, the location of Shibuya Saburo's secret agency.

Adjutant Ono opened the door and walked into Saburo Shibuya's room, and handed him a telegram. Saburo Shibuya took it over and looked at it, his expression froze.

"Ono-kun, you go to JMS immediately to see Sato-kun of the JMS organization..." Saburo Shibuya quickly made a decision and issued an order.

"Hay!"

"Remember, this operation is absolutely confidential, and you can't reveal too much information to Sato-kun, understand?"

"Understood, sir."

"Go."

……

Zhou Sen also went to see Natasha. He wanted to see General Peshkov. He couldn't tell Natasha clearly about the rescue.

It was necessary to see Peshkov in person, and that mattered a great deal.

Zhou Sen soon met Peshkov in the spacious office where he first met Peshkov.

This time, he doesn't have to be blindfolded anymore.

After Natasha led him in, she made him a cup of coffee and came in, and then he went out. She was very knowledgeable.

Since Zhou Sen didn't tell her anything and just wanted to see Peshkov alone, he must have something he didn't want to say to her.

Peshkov was also taken aback when he heard Zhou Sen's intention.

He also wants Zhou Sen to return to Bingcheng, because there, his role is the greatest. Although staying in Khabarovsk is also useful, but with the end of the war on the Haraha River, his role will not be so great. big.

The intelligence agencies of the Kwantung Army had put a lot of thought into Zhou Sen's latent intelligence network, and now they gave up all their previous efforts to rescue a person.

This is indeed puzzling. If he was the intelligence chief, he would never make such a short-sighted decision.

Unless there is an unreasonable reason to refuse.

At the same time, it also revealed a signal that the "Northern Advance" plan was shaken within the Japanese army. Even this time, the "Northern Advance" forces will be suppressed after the defeat of the Haraha River, and many people will even be dismissed from office.

This is normal, wrong decisions, someone is always responsible for it, this is the practice of the whole world.

When engaging in intelligence, as long as you are careful, under normal circumstances, it will rarely be exposed, unless you know that it has been leaked, and a lot of intelligence is collected through public channels, and this kind of information cannot be investigated.

But once there is a rescue operation, it will be different. If people are gone, this must be investigated. This geese will leave traces. No one can disappear out of thin air. Only an omnipotent god can do that.

Therefore, as long as Zhou Sen saves people, there is a high probability that his identity will be exposed. The "Cheka" of the Soviet Russian internal affairs department is not a vegetarian.

Moreover, the prisoner escaped and was rescued. Such a case cannot be suppressed.

"General, this Sato Morihou should be a special person, otherwise Shibuya Saburo would not give me such an order, at the cost of sacrificing my lurking." Zhou Sen said, "At least I stay in Khabarovsk with legal status It is still valuable, their ambitions for the Far East have not been extinguished, but have been suppressed temporarily."

"What kind of character do you think he will be?"

"I don't know. He may be a key person who has a certain secret, or a nobleman with a high status. Anyway, he cannot be captured or speak, otherwise there will be consequences that they cannot afford." Zhou Sen couldn't do anything. To judge, Saburo Shibuya did not tell him the specific identity of Morihou Ando, ​​so he can only rely on analysis and guesswork.

"You wait for my news. I have to confirm whether this person has been sent to the Khabarovsk prisoner-of-war camp." Peshkov said.

"The medical and sanitation level in the prisoner-of-war camp is definitely not very good. We will conduct a physical examination on them in the near future. At that time, we can ask Natasha to arrange a chance for you to enter."

"Ok."

"Of course, it's not only you, but also other people. This doesn't show your specialness, lest you be suspected." Peshkov added.

"Thank you, General, for your consideration."

Peshkov's attitude is obviously willing to take this opportunity to send Zhou Sen back. After all, he can see that Zhou Sen's heart is not here, and the "Leo" team in Bingcheng also needs someone to lead. Time has passed too much. long time.

Although Anthony is prepared, as long as he is not there, the members of the "Leo" team will enter a state of silence.

But this also interrupted the source of information, which was not a small loss. He also wanted Zhou Sen to return to Ice City as soon as possible and lead the "Leo" team again.

……

"The prisoner of war health check, why do you want me and Steven to participate?" Natasha came directly to Anna.

"Firstly, there is not enough manpower. The military hospital has taken most of the doctors and nurses to go to the front line of the Haraha River. Secondly, I want you to bear witness that we have not violated the Geneva Convention on Prisoners of War. Not only you, but also others Everyone has been invited, and I'm here to inform you, and there are some things to pay attention to in detail." Natasha said, "Where's Steven, why haven't I seen him?"

"What else can he do? He likes to go fishing by the river when he's free." Martha chuckled.

Zhou Sen didn't just go fishing, he was surveying the escape route from Khabarovsk, and it must be by water.

There must be a ferry for boarding the boat by water, and there must be a boat prepared, and enough food and escape items must be prepared on board...

These have to be prepared and prepared in advance, and you can’t wait until the situation is imminent to prepare these things, because it will be too late.

As for finding a ship, he naturally went to Krasnov. He was an engineer at the shipyard and was very familiar with the people on the dock.

But Zhou Sen wanted to buy a boat, not lease it.

Buying a new boat requires registration, and the price is not cheap, and buying and selling second-hand boats also requires registration and filing, so you have to buy a boat without any records.

Only old boats left.

The boat can't be too small, otherwise it won't be able to withstand the wind and waves, so the range of options will be further narrowed. Fortunately, Zhou Sen's heart softened in the First Hospital, and Natasha saved Rudolph's arm.

This guy is a local snake.

When he found him, he said he wanted to buy a boat for fishing and sleeping on the river. He didn't think much about it, so he introduced a seller to him.

The boat was still made of iron and wood, and the hull was full of rust, but after seeing it, Krasnov felt that it could still be used after repairing it.

Zhou Sen spent money to buy it.

The three of them took a lot of effort to tow the boat to a small pier not far from Krasnov's home, and paid the berthing fee.

Then began to repair and modify the ship.

It was not difficult for Krasnov to obtain materials for repairs. After Rudolph was injured, although he kept his arm, he could no longer exert himself, and lost his coolie work on the dock.

So, he also came to help. During the day, Rudolph was alone, and at night, when Krasnov came back from get off work, the two of them worked together...

……

When Zhou Sen returned to the clinic and heard Anna mentioning the "prisoner of war camp", he naturally understood that it was arranged by Peshkov, but he still pretended to be surprised.

"When will it be over, and what preparations do you need?" Zhou Sen asked.

"The day after tomorrow, we don't need to prepare anything, but there are some precautions. After all, the prisoner-of-war camp is not an ordinary place." Anna said.

"Of course, this is an opportunity for us, but with so many prisoners of war in the prisoner-of-war camp, we may not be able to meet Ando Morihou, let alone get in touch with him." Zhou Sen said.

"It would be great if we could see the list in advance," Anna said.

"The list, I guess they won't show it to us, but if we rely on physical features to identify them, the probability of making mistakes is high." Zhou Sen said, "Also, we can't reveal that we can speak Japanese."

"This is difficult. If Morihou Ando knew that someone outside would rescue him, he might be able to take the initiative to get in touch with us..."

"Don't think about it. You can contact Mr. Shibuya at night and ask, if you don't speak, can you let Ando Morihou know that we are the ones who rescued him?" You recognize familiar signs."

"Some nobles in Japan have family crests, and we only need to get a family crest similar to that of Ando Morihou's family somewhere outside, and he may recognize it and come to us on his own initiative?" Anna immediately understood Zhou Sen meant it.

"Yes, this is the best way I can think of right now. The Soviet Union may not know the family crest of a certain nobleman in Japan. This risk is worth taking." Zhou Sen nodded.

"Okay, then I'll ask Shibuya Commander for instructions tonight." Anna nodded in agreement.
