The Bourne Counterattack

Chapter 536 Killing Wu Sibao (I)

"Dachun, help me prepare a car, fill it with gas, and some weapons, a long gun and a short gun, with silencers."

"Team leader, this is a big task."

"Do as I say, don't worry about anything else." Cheng Mo ordered, "I will remember it when I need you."

"Yes."

……

"Let the mermaid find out the time when Wu Sibao left No. 76." Cheng Mo made another secret call to Xu Baichuan.

Xu Baichuan naturally agreed immediately.

……

"Chiyo, I may need you to cooperate with me." He went to see Chiyo again without saying anything, but Chiyo agreed.

……

After doing all this, just wait for the news.

He did not go to find Peng Nian. Peng Nian was a man who could only be used and not trusted. He did not want to get himself into trouble.

This time, he wanted to snipe Wu Sibao himself.

Completely eliminate this hidden danger before your child is born.

Only he has the ability to do this. Neither Liu Guoxing nor Kuizi has this ability, and they cannot act rashly.

Information from all sides was gathered, and Qin Chi even brought the departure time for the train ticket that Lin Zhijiang purchased.

Of course Cheng Mo had some information about Lin Zhijiang, including information collected by the Military Control Commission and the Political Section of the Concession Police Station.

He also knew that this person had betrayed the Military Control Commission and joined Unit 76 very early, and was able to survive until after the Anti-Japanese War. This person was famous for his caution.

Qin Chi was able to find out that he bought a train ticket to Yuhang at the train station, so did he definitely go there by train?

Do not!
This is most likely a smokescreen, a tactic he always uses.

Of course, he might be playing a trick of pretending to be real, so he would still let Qin Chi arrange people to monitor the train station.

As expected, the insider "Zhi Liao" brought a message that Lin Zhijiang secretly smuggled some contraband items to Haining.

These smuggled contraband items will naturally be inspected by the water police, but the smuggling ship has a warrant from the gendarmerie headquarters, so who dares to inspect it?

Anyway, we can just turn a blind eye to this kind of thing, and make some concessions along the way so that everyone can get some benefits.

Unless the higher-ups are serious about it and smuggling affects the overall strategy, who would do something that would affect people's financial resources?
Putting Wu Sibao on a smuggling boat, secretly transporting him to Haining, and then from Haining to Yuhang, this detour might actually be the safest option.

Taking the train to Yuhang seems safe, but in fact it exposes you to the sight of the Military Control Commission. Will the Military Control Commission let go of such a good opportunity?

Lin Shiqun felt that this strategy of making a feint to the east and attacking in the west was foolproof.

So he gave the order to execute it, and asked Lin Zhijiang to find someone to disguise as Wu Sibao, and he would personally escort him to the train station to take a train to Yuhang.

Another group of people were sent to follow Wu Sibao and take a smuggling ship to Haining.

One in front and one behind, setting off at the same time.

It's a pity that She Aizhen, as Wu Sibao's wife, kept all this in the dark. Lin Shiqun planned to tell her the truth after Wu Sibao arrived safely in Yuhang.

Although Cheng Mo couldn't guess how Lin Zhijiang got to Yuhang, the railway was ruled out, and the only options left were road or water.

It's not that the highway is not an option, but if the news leaks out along the way, the assassination will not stop as long as Wu Sibao is not dead.

How many lives will No. 76 sacrifice for the sake of Wu Sibao?
The only way left is by water.

Taking the inland river is just like taking the highway, especially in places where bandits are rampant. If you run into robbers, it will be more dangerous than taking the land route. Given Lin Zhijiang's caution and steadiness, he will most likely take the sea route.

Once at sea, it will be difficult to find the target, so he must be eliminated before he gets on board.

It is too risky to walk during the day, but it is relatively safe at night and it is not easy to be discovered.

But the train ticket Lin Zhijiang had someone buy was for the morning, so Wu Sibao would leave Shanghai either tonight or tomorrow night.

Because the three days that the police station had to send a letter to No. 76 were approaching.

……

"Team leader, we have found out that Lin Zhijiang has a maritime smuggling line leading to Haining. If someone really goes there and takes a smuggling boat, it will be done without anyone noticing." Shen Mo brought him good news.

"When will this ship go to Haining?" Cheng Mo asked.

"The smuggling ship comes once every three days, and the next one should be tomorrow night." Shen Mo said.

"It seems that Wu Sibao will take this ship to leave Shanghai tomorrow night." Cheng Mo nodded, "Do you know when this ship will leave the port?"

"Not sure. The time is not fixed. They are a smuggling boat and they want to avoid the patrol route of the water police. However, they have someone behind them. They probably know the patrol route earlier than the water police." Shen Mo said.

"Keep an eye on them to prevent them from leaving the port early!" Cheng Mo ordered.

"it is good."

……

"Mo'er, go to bed early tonight. I may have to go out for a while." Cheng Mo sent Su Mo'er upstairs and gave her instructions.

"Is there a mission?"

"Well, don't ask too much. If someone asks, just say that I was at home tonight and didn't go out." Cheng Mo said, "Also remind Xiaoyu not to say the wrong thing."

"Okay, I understand." Su Moer nodded, "Then the contact time tonight is up, what should I do?"

"It's okay. I will explain it to the higher-ups later."

"Yeah." Su Moer is a pregnant woman. It is not suitable for her to move the heavy radio now. If she has a miscarriage, it will be even more troublesome.

It is normal for undercover agents to occasionally delay or interrupt contact. After all, they may encounter accidents at any time and be unable to communicate within the specified time.

Xu Baichuan knew what he was doing. When the time came, he would send a telegram to explain it, and Chongqing would verify it, and naturally there would be no problem.

The wharf of Nanshi was not under the control of the concession, but there was a guard battalion at No. 76 Nanshi, headed by Wu Sibao's sworn brother Wang Jian, who also served as the director of the detention center.

Lin Zhijiang's smuggled goods are all shipped from the Nanshi Wharf. With the escort of the captain of the guard battalion of the Nanshi Security Department, safety on land is naturally guaranteed.

The next morning, Lin Zhijiang followed the secret order from Lin Shiqun and went to the detention center to take Wu Sibao away, but he did not leave immediately.

Instead, he asked Wu Sibao to change clothes with a man of similar build under his command, and then took Lin Zhijiang in the car and left through the side door of No. 76 with "Wu Sibao", deliberately concealing the situation.

It's like he doesn't want anyone to know.

Cheng Mo had been waiting at the Nanshi Wharf for a whole night, and the smuggling ship had not left, which meant that Wu Sibao had not fled overnight.

He was not in a hurry. If he were, he would not have delayed it for a whole day.

But this does not mean that it was a futile effort, because only in this way can we ensure that Wu Sibao would be kept in Shanghai. Once he went to Yuhang, it would be difficult to kill him.

After a sleepless night, Cheng Mo went to work as usual the next day. He even read a report in the newspaper that speculated that Wu Sibao was the mastermind behind Bai Saner's murder.

He believed that She Aizhen had seen it, and Lin Shiqun naturally had seen it as well.
