Beiying Town was extremely quiet at night, with a strict curfew, and armed soldiers standing guard every few dozen meters on the street.
A black long van was driving slowly through the streets of the town like a ghost.
Lu Ming was in the car at this time because he was very curious about this kind of telecommunications detection vehicle. He had seen it in a museum in his previous life.
The principles of this world's telecommunications detection vehicles are similar to those of the previous life. There are radar-like antennas on the front and back of the vehicle that rotate slowly.
When a radio signal is detected, the sensor in the car will sound an alarm and flash a red light. The brighter the red light, the stronger the radio signal, which means the closer to the transmitting station. In this way, a general area can be determined.
An unusual radio signal was briefly detected just now, but it disappeared quickly, so the possible area where the radio station is located is very large.
But there is no rush. Tonight and tomorrow are a whole day and night. In addition, the intelligence station has been monitoring the local area. After all, it is just a small town with a population of more than 10,000. It is not difficult to find foreign spies.
Lu Ming was thinking about how the family of Wang Jinchang, the shopkeeper, was persecuted and arrested by the Nanping Security Bureau.
The Intelligence Department has already secretly investigated how Ma Rulong leaked the information, but it is not time to close the investigation yet.
In order to avoid being discovered by the Nanping Security Bureau, if the Nanping Security Bureau realized that they attached great importance to Wang Jinchang's family, it would create difficulties in rescuing them.
However, he was considering using Ma Rulong and Gao Dazhen to exchange for Wang Jinchang's family.
The Nanping Intelligence Station is developing well, but if it organizes people to attack the Bureau of Secrets, even if the operation is successful, there will definitely be intelligence personnel sacrificed, and the Nanping Intelligence Station will be in danger of being exposed.
People like Ma Rulong and Gao Dazhen are worthless in my hands, so they can be used for exchange.
Of course, whether it is a surprise attack or an exchange, it must be carried out after this military operation.
The sudden flashing red light in the car interrupted Lu Ming's thoughts. Lu Ming looked at the technicians in the car who immediately got busy.
…
Everything is on track. Tomorrow morning the heavy artillery will enter the position as planned. It is behind a high earthen hill, some distance from the river bank.
In the evening, Lu Ming, along with three of Tuolong's attendants, were strolling near the river.
Because the artillery rangefinder had arrived in advance and began to measure the distance between the bombardment target and the position.
Although today artillery carries out indiscriminate attacks and cannot achieve the precision of later generations, it is still necessary to carry out distance measurement and have a rough estimate.
Lu Ming came to escort the rangefinder. Although it was not necessary, he had nothing to do anyway.
The military and police arrest operation in Beiying Town has been arranged for tonight, so there is no need for me to be there personally.
Granny Tuolong and Daxiaoguo are just like real country grandparents and grandchildren.
Daguo and Xiaoguo are very good at disguising themselves. For example, in a busy place, the two of them wear school uniform skirts, or small white T-shirts and shorts or short skirts, wear red knitted hats, and carry big schoolbags. They are simply the elementary school version of Chibi Maruko-chan. They look very cute and harmless, but the killing weapons in their schoolbags are very creepy. Fortunately, there are no micro-nuclear bombs nowadays, otherwise Liuli would have to tinker with it and give one to each of them.
Now the two of them are just dirty country girls, dressed in tattered clothes, barefoot, with mud all over their bodies and faces, but in the piles of firewood carried by their small bodies, there are also all kinds of terrible weapons hidden.
Lu Ming was dressed rather casually, looking like a country boy who had gone to the city to study and was coming back to collect firewood with his grandmother.
However, there was no one in sight from the designated artillery position to the riverside. Gradually, the few of them stopped disguising themselves. After arriving at the sandbank, Lu Ming sat down. Da Guo and Xiao Guo both took out kettles and brought them to Lu Ming. When they saw Lu Ming waving his hand, they put them away. The rhythm of their movements was exactly the same.
"It seems like there's nothing for me to worry about. I'm just looking for trouble." Lu Ming shook his head.
When Granny Tuolong and Daguo and Xiaoguo heard their master talking about him like this, they naturally didn't dare to respond.
Suddenly, Granny Tuolong frowned slightly, and her ears seemed to move, and she whispered, "Master, there is a boat coming on the river."
Lu Ming was startled and made a gesture. Several people slowly climbed up the sandbank to look.
There is no moon tonight and it is pitch black. Although I have adapted to the light, the river surface is still dark and I can't see anything for the time being.
Gradually, Lu Ming heard the sound of water. It should be a boat rowing in the water, not a steamship.
After a while, a small boat really appeared in sight.
When they reached the riverside, the boatman held the boat and several figures jumped out from it. When the boat reached shallow water, several people waded over, all very carefully, trying to avoid making any sound in the water.
They all look big and muscular, and some of them are carrying suitcases, which may contain guns or other weapons.
"Young master, do you want to leave him alive?" Grandma Tuolong asked in a very low voice beside Lu Ming.
Lu Ming looked at the few people without saying anything. His first reaction was that Jiang Bei was here to cause trouble.
But the relationships between the various forces here are so complicated that it is sometimes difficult to say.
Including Jiangbei, there are also underground organizations that oppose Gao Baoshan’s brutal rule.
Not to mention, there are also Japanese forces, warlord forces hostile to Gao Baoshan, and so on.
It is even possible that these people are from Jiangbei's own intelligence station. It is unlikely, but it is possible. After all, it is impossible for them to know every detail of the interactive activities of the intelligence stations below.
Lu Ming gestured and then coughed, "Grandma, it's getting late and we've almost finished collecting firewood. Let's go back!"
The people who landed on the shore were all startled and quickly lay down on the side of the river bank. When they saw the figures of Lu Ming and Grandma Tuolong gradually appearing on the river bank, they all seemed to be relieved.
After a while, when the two figures walked away, the man who looked like the leader made a gesture, and several people stood up and slowly walked towards the river bank.
Then, two small figures suddenly jumped out from the weeds, and several people fell down one by one with a groan.
…
The dilapidated Jiang Temple had long been deserted, and at this moment an oil lamp was lit in the hall.
Several soldiers in green military uniforms stood obediently aside. Recently, there was a standoff between the south and north of the river. They were led by the deputy squad leader to patrol along the river, but they were lying here and being lazy. Unexpectedly, a special envoy from the military intelligence department came, and they were all scared.
The Military Intelligence Department and the Military Police come from the same system. The Chief of the Military Intelligence Department, Lu Gaoyi, also serves as the captain of the Military Police. From a certain perspective, members of the Military Intelligence Department in the headquarters can also be regarded as Military Police, and the main responsibility of the Military Police is to enforce military discipline.
Fortunately, Special Commissioner Zhang ignored them and instead interrogated a newly captured illegal immigrant.
The stowaway was a big, burly man, and was armed.
Although he was tied up, he kept his mouth shut. No matter what Special Commissioner Zhang asked, he did not answer. Later, he simply closed his eyes.
"You are not Gao Baoshan's supporters, but you definitely didn't sneak over here to do good things. You are here to cause trouble. Do you want to start a war between us and Gao Baoshan?" Lu Ming smiled. "There are too many people who hope that we will fight and sit on the sidelines to watch the fight. I really can't guess which side you are on."
Lu Ming looked at the deputy who was trembling with fear at the side and said, "I can't even trust you to escort the prisoners. Let me take the prisoners away!"
He shook his head in his heart. Without faith, the combat effectiveness of an armed force will always be worrying. This is a big problem.
Even American soldiers consider themselves defenders of the free world, don’t they
