Chapter 734: Rescue Obstructed (Seeking Monthly Ticket)
Yamada Nobure's words were murderous. He had never been ruthless to the Chinese. Ma Yaowu couldn't help but feel embarrassed. In addition to giving gifts to Yamada Nobure this time, he really wanted to talk to Yamada Nobure, thinking that he would sell the other people to a good price besides Chai Guoan.
Ma Yaowu was targeting Chai Guoan before, but he was unable to find other handles to deal with him for a while, so he chose to make a fuss and arrested Chai Guoan and the editor-in-chief and staff of the newspaper on the charge of promoting and spreading anti-Japanese remarks.
His original intention was to kill Chai Guoan and make a fortune on others and finally release him. However, today, he did not seem to have planned to let this matter go.
Ma Yaowu heard from his brother Ren Laosi that some people were willing to pay a high price to redeem those irrelevant people, and the money was not a small amount, so for the sake of the money, he came to clear Yamada Noburi. Now seeing Yamada Noburi did not let go, he hesitated for a moment, and decided to give it a try.
After all, he has not done these things before. After Yamada Noburi got the benefits, he was willing to let others go.
"Secretary Director, Chai Guoan is the mastermind of this anti-Japanese incident, and the other newspaper staff have less responsibilities. Now their families are willing to pay some money. I think this business is still cost-effective, then..."
"Okay, no need to say more, this matter is settled!"
Before he could finish his words, Yamada Nobure waved his hand and interrupted him.
Noburi Yamada knew what Ma Yaowu meant, and it was not impossible to let him go with money, but at this stage, the anti-Japanese sentiment in the Wuhan area rebounded a little, and he really needed to kill some people to intimidate those Chinese citizens.
Moreover, all Japanese troops are now preparing for war, but his special high school class does not have combat tasks, which makes everyone think he is very leisurely, so General Uehara gave him the task of receiving Mr. Fujiwara.
Now he must also make some noise to show his presence. He is not unaware of Chai Guoan's incident. This is what Ma Yaowu did, but he still ordered the arrest and decided to execute them all. This is not just about greed for the economic benefits therein, but also about killing one to warn a hundred.
Seeing that Yamada Noburi had made up his mind, Ma Yaowu stopped talking. After all, he was not a rude person. It can even be said that he was greedy and had countless blood debts in his hands. He was personally arrested by the newspaper staff. If it weren't for the sake of money, he wouldn't say anything more. Now that he saw Yamada Noburi and did not agree, he did not feel guilty except for the lack of benefits.
Yamada Noburi suddenly thought of something. He looked at Ma Yaowu and said in a gentle tone: "Does Chai Guoan have valuable antiques, jade artifacts, calligraphy and paintings in his family?"
Ma Yaowu said without thinking at this time, "Yes, you must have them, I'll send them all right now!"
As the person who is very sensitive to Ma Yaowu, Yamada Noburi asked directly. Even if there is not, he had to find ways to get it to his door. However, after decades of accumulation in Wuhan, Chai Guoan really has many treasures hidden in his home, and now they are all in Ma Yaowu's hands.
However, he did not find that Yamada Nobure also likes these things. Among the Japanese soldiers, in addition to some officers with higher cultural literacy, there are really few who like Chinese antiques and jade. They prefer gold bars and dollars, and these more affordable things.
Nobure Yamada obviously belongs to the latter. He prefers to maintain strong currency and cash. However, since Mr. Fujiwara likes it now, it is a different matter. He must do his best to win Mr. Fujiwara's favor. If he successfully gets on the Fujiwara family, his future prospects can be said to be bright. Even if he doesn't see a person like General Uehara, he will try his best to cling to the Fujiwara family.
When Yamada Noburi heard Ma Yaowu's answer, he couldn't help but nodded secretly. This person is sensible and tactful, so it would be more than vain to promote him.
Nobure Yamada said in a deep voice: "You find experts who know the skills and carefully select a batch of antiques and fine products. I want to give them to a big shot. Remember, don't have fakes or defective products, otherwise good things will become bad things, and I will not spare you!"
When Ma Yaowu heard this, he was excited. In his eyes, Noburi Yamada, the head of the Special High School Course, was in charge of all public security affairs in Wuhan. He was already an outstanding figure among the Japanese. The big man he mentioned must be a Japanese powerful man with a prominent status.
Ma Yaowu's brain reaction was not bad, and he immediately grasped the key point. He nodded solemnly and said, "Please rest assured, I will prepare when I go back now, and I will send it to you soon!"
That night, Uncle Quan received a reply from Ren Laosi. When he heard the news brought back by the members he sent to contact, Uncle Quan couldn't help but feel anxious.
He never expected that the absolute senior management of the underground party organization and the member of the Standing Committee of the Wuhan Municipal Party Committee would lose his life in a confused way because of an irrelevant and bloody grudge. There was nothing more unfair than this.
More importantly, Pei Wenrui has absolute secrets that he has independently mastered, such as some extremely secret contact points and the single-line intelligence officer he is responsible for, and only he knows the activity funds for the hidden location, etc.
Uncle Quan himself is also one of the Standing Committee members of the Wuhan Municipal Party Committee. His status is comparable to that of Pei Wenrui. He has many secrets that other members of the Standing Committee do not know. For example, Miao Yongyi is the top-secret intelligence officer he is responsible for. He is the only one in Wuhan who knows the existence of Miao Yongyi. If Uncle Quan has an accident, Miao Yongyi will lose contact. It is hard to say whether he can take back the organizational relationship.
It can be said that a senior executive of Pei Wenrui must have similar situations in his hands. If he really dies at the hands of the Japanese, the losses will be huge.
Uncle Quan asked in a deep voice: "Isn't Ren Laosi still confidently saying that as long as you have money, there is no problem. All other people can be released. Why are you breaking your promise now? What's the problem?"
Cui Anping, an underground party member who was responsible for contacting Ren Laosi, was also the most capable assistant under Uncle Quan. He also said helplessly: "Ren Laosi explained that it was the head of the Japanese special high school class, Yamada Noburi insisted on executing all the people involved in the case, killing one to warn a hundred, and never being lenient. A greedy guy like Ma Yaowu doesn't make money when he sees it. It can be imagined that it is really not feasible! Uncle Quan, we should simply carry out armed rescue and cannot watch our comrades be killed by the Japanese."
When Uncle Quan heard his words, he pondered for a while and said nothing. This decision was not easy.
Under the high-pressure rule of the Japanese, the underground party's power in Wuhan was originally weak, especially the important town of Hankou was the focus of the Japanese. The Japanese garrison was extremely powerful here, and there were also a large number of puppet troops and police departments. So much so that almost every operation before the underground party was unable to escape the enemy's pursuit and suffered heavy losses.
Now we have to force the rescue of the personnel under heavy troops. It is conceivable that the difficulties are very difficult. It can be said that as long as the gunfire sounds and there is no major sacrifice, it is impossible to rescue Pei Wenrui. Even if he makes a major sacrifice, the chance of the rescue operation is very small. He will not be able to make up his mind until the last moment.
No, you must never fight hard! Uncle Quan thinks that we should start from other aspects and find a way to properly solve the problem.
He then asked, "The head of the Special High School Section, Noburi Yamada, this person is cunning and ruthless. He has always been the biggest opponent of our organization. It seems that we should start from him. You must closely monitor Noburi Yamada's whereabouts. By the way, you must also pay attention to Ma Yaowu's movements. If the matter is really irreversible, you can only attack these two people and force them to release them!"
"Yes, I'll make arrangements right away!" Cui Anping nodded and took the order.
At the same time, in Ning Zhiheng's villa, his bodyguard, Kurihara Masatake, was also reporting to Ning Zhiheng about the situation of tracking the diners today.
"President, I followed those people from afar and followed them to the beach near Hankou. They didn't stay there for long. They had lunch at a Chinese restaurant at noon and returned to a courtyard near the Hankou garrison guarding area at 2 o'clock in the afternoon. They never came out again. Even when it was dark, they didn't come out. It was probably because they were staying in this courtyard."
Masatake Kurihara was careful in his work and meticulously completed what Ning Zhiheng explained. After confirming that the work goals would not change, he rushed back to report to Ning Zhiheng.
Ning Zhiheng asked strangely: "A large mansion? Not a military facility?"
Masatake Kurihara looked at Ning Zhiheng in surprise, nodded and said, "You are right. It is indeed a military department. I was guarding there. I saw that most of the soldiers in and out of there were soldiers in military uniforms, and only a small number of people were wearing casual clothes."
Ning Zhiheng then asked: "Do you know which military department it is?"
Masatake Kurihara replied: "I didn't ask about this, but I asked the nearby Chinese vendors that the large mansion was formerly called Dongyuan. Before the Battle of Wuhan, it was the residence of a senior Chinese official. Later, the family escaped and the residence was confiscated by the garrison. Now it is full of military personnel."
This is all the match! Ning Zhiheng relaxed his mind and nodded secretly. He asked the specific location of Dongyuan, then stepped forward and patted Kurihara Masato on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Kurihara, you did a good job. I am very satisfied with your performance. Don't mention this matter to anyone, do you understand?"
"Hi Yi, I understand!" Kurihara Masato hurriedly bowed and agreed.
