Cai Yuanpei's telegram soon arrived in Shanghai. Under the kerosene lamp in the dim attic, Wang Jitong put the telegram on the table and was silent after reading it. Four hundred guns is not a difficult task, and now there are six hundred guns in the warehouse, but the problem is that he seems to have a feeling of being targeted since the last shipment. In order to sever the connection with the 6 lines, these British rifles were placed in the wharf warehouse of the American Concession in the name of American cotton, which was originally a secluded place, and the wharf warehouse was located where there would be no miscellaneous people except for laborers, but now from time to time there will be cigarette vendors, stalls selling rice and wine-stuffed balls. Let's not say that these vendors have business or not, but just looking at the age of these people is very wrong, how can there be a twenty-year-old person who does this for a living, and it is an old man and an old mother to do it.

Where did these people come from? Wang Jitong meditated on this question, and after a while he looked at his pocket watch, and when the time was about to come, he stood up and went down the stairs to the attic. The attic was on the fourth floor with roof tiles, and after the house was rented, it was converted into his office, which is also the office of the Shanghai headquarters of the Revival Society. In order to keep it secret, he rented out several buildings in this connection, but the lower two floors of these buildings were subleased to merchants to open shops, and he only used the third and fourth attics above. Access never goes through the ground floor, but through the partition walls of these buildings, and through the partition walls to enter and exit from the houses that have been preserved on both sides. Although there are two exits on the left and right, Wang Jitong generally likes to take the one on the left, because there is a teahouse downstairs. In order to get in and out without attracting attention, he also said to the owner of the teahouse, and opened a side door on the first floor of the teahouse, the teahouse is in Wan'anli on the back road, and Yang Rui used to live in Ruyi Lane across a back road, where people come and go, behind is Suzhou Creek, and the front and back runs are smooth, which is indeed the best choice for a secret stronghold.

Wang Jitong came to the compartment on the second floor of the teahouse, the person he sent to keep an eye on before made an appointment to meet here, and the time should be almost up. Soon, Xiaohu appeared. Since being slapped by the manager of Tuxing to understand the reality, Xiao Hu no longer has the heart to study hard in Tuxing and make progress every day, plus he often skips work on weekends and mingles with Yang Rui's students, he also gritted his teeth and participated in the revolution. It's just that because he was too young and his education was too low, he was arranged to stay in Shanghai to assist Wang Jitong in his work, and he was worried that he was a foreigner who didn't understand the language, but after half a year, he spoke very well in Shanghai, coupled with his active and outgoing personality, and he was familiar with the Chinese area of the concession.

When Wang Jitong saw him coming, he couldn't help but stare behind him. Xiao Hu smiled: "Sir, don't look at it, I've been around outside several times, even if there is a follower, there is no shadow." ”

Xiao Hu said it so easily, Wang Jitong did frown. In his opinion, Xiaohu is good at everything, but he is not cautious enough, and he is very good at collecting intelligence, but he is still a lot worse at keeping secrets. "Our enemy is air, and there is a pair of eyes behind every window......" Wang Jitong spoke some languages that this world does not have, in fact, this is what Yang Rui saw from the TV series "Latent", in order to make people understand the importance of intelligence work, he described and recorded many things in it and gave them to Wang Jitong. After reading those patchwork things, Wang Jitong took them as a guideline, and taught everyone from time to time unconsciously saying some words. "After following for so many days, have you ever heard any news?"

Xiao Hu pretended to have a strict face when Wang Jitong was teaching, but now when he heard the news, his face became active, and he whispered: "There is news." These people go around every night when they collect their stalls and go home, but in fact, they all go back to one place. ”

Wang Jitong said: "Where are you going back?" ”

Xiao Hu said: "A academy is called the East Asia Tongwen Academy. In the Gaochang Temple Guiye. Seeing that Wang Jitong was confused by the name of the academy, he continued: "I also inquired about this academy, it seems that it was opened by Orientals, and it used to be an Oriental Literature Hall, but it was changed to East Asia Tongwen Academy in the Xin Chou year. There aren't many people in there, one or two hundred. Most of them are Oriental, and most of the students are Oriental. ”

Wang Jitong of the East Asia Tongwen Academy knows that the Japanese language teacher invited by the international student training class of the Education Association is from this college. Originally, I thought that if it wasn't someone from Shanghai Daotai, it was someone from the Ministry of Industry Bureau of the Concession who patrolled the house. Who would have thought that it was Japanese, could it be that the Huaxing Club leaked the news? He knew that the last time Huang Xuanwu of the Huaxing Association came to Shanghai in the afternoon, he was to contact the comrades to raise an incident together, especially the many students in Tokyo who responded, and now they have all returned to China in June, and these people are all crowded in the temporary residence in the concession, and they plan to sneak back to Hunan to raise an incident at that time. Could it be that these people were open-mouthed when they were in Tokyo and told the Revival Society when they sent guns? Then the Japanese knew that it was time to send someone from Shanghai to see it. Wang Jitong thought so.

But this doesn't make sense, the matter is in Hunan, and the gun is also in Shanghai, and it has nothing to do with Japan, so why do you want to investigate? Just as the more you know, the more you feel ignorant, Wang Jitong is deeply distressed by this. In fact, what he didn't know was that the Japanese had already planted many spies and spy organizations in China before the First Sino-Japanese Naval War, such as the Leshantang and many brothels in the Hankow, Tianjin and other concessions, as well as the Nissin Trade Institute, the predecessor of the East Asian Tongwen Academy. Unlike Leshantang, which uses eye drops, Lingbidan and other medicinal herbs, Dongya Tongwen Academy is a spy training school, students are all from Japan, in this school not only learn Chinese and Chinese culture, but also go on a big trip every year during the holidays - in the name of travel, spying on the transportation, geography, economy, military and other information of various provinces in China.

Fortunately, the last time it was shipped, it was not directly mentioned in the warehouse - Yang Rui lied that there were only 400 guns, so he could only send 400 out of the warehouse first and let the people of Huaxing Club pick them up - Wang Jitong thought so. Now the place where the Japanese are staring at is still a little different from the place where the guns are actually placed, otherwise he would have changed things to different places, after all, guns are contraband, whether it is the concession or the Qing court, once they know about it, they will go all out to track it down.

Seeing that Mr. didn't speak, and didn't see him come back to his senses after waiting for a while, Xiaohu couldn't hold it back, and said resignedly: "Sir,... That one... Here's one more thing... I don't know..."

Wang Jitong raised his hand and said, "What else, say." Don't hold back. Is last month's salary gone? "After all, Xiaohu is only fifteen or sixteen years old, usually his brother is in charge of money, and now he is revolutionary, and he is in charge of his monthly salary, and there are more things to eat, drink and play in a prosperous place in Shanghai, how can Xiao Young bear it, the salary is generally not at the end of the month, and the rest of the time will go to the instrument hall to eat until the tenth day of the month.

Xiao Hu looked embarrassed and said, "No, sir, I still have money." Even when I was staring at that academy these days, the people I went to the 6th line last time were also in it. ”

"You read that right?" Wang Jitong became a little nervous, and added, "Are you sure you read it right?" "The 6 lines are the base camp of commerce, and all the factories are in it, and the wireless telegraph stations that can be transmitted to Tokyo and Tonghua are also there. In order to prevent being destroyed, he deliberately let people go to the factory team, and Yang Rui, who was not at ease, also borrowed from the modern property, the property where the factory was located belonged to a British-funded company management, and when some unreasonable officials and foreigners were encountered, the foreigners came forward to block people back. Since the opening of the first year, there have been no idlers who have entered, and the workers inside are basically child laborers, and the managers are basically from the management training class, so it can be said that in order to keep the technical secrets, there is no leakage. It's just that some time ago, some people came in pretending to be laborers, and now they are being driven out; Later, someone sneaked in at night and was caught by the factory protection team and sent to the official. But I didn't know that I was released soon after I was sent in, and I couldn't find out when I went to the yamen to inquire about who was so big-faced.

Xiao Hu said: "The decision is not wrong, that red beard is inside." "After the 6 lines arrested people that time, Wang Jitong took a few people to look at them, intending to check the details of these people, Xiaohu was also among them, and there was a person with a small handful of red beard - it is estimated that the salient characteristics of the hybrid race mated by Japan's comprehensive Westernization and foreigners - Xiaohu remembered it very clearly. When staring at the academy, Xiao Hu in the crowd could see at a glance that the red beard was coming, and he didn't even look at his beard, just by looking at the Luo circle when he walked, he knew who it was.

Wang Jitong said: "In this way, those were also Japanese last time." ”

Xiao Hu said: "Ironclad." While he was not paying attention, I followed him and saw the redbeard talking to the others. I don't think these Orientals are as good as Westerners. "Ever since he knew what opium was and what it would bring to people, Xiaohu was extremely disgusted with foreigners.

Xiaohu's conclusion Wang Jitong did not refute it, this Oriental is more disgusting than the Westerner, if there is no Sino-Japanese War, then China will not really begin to degenerate into fish and meat, to be slaughtered by others. "You go back first, and during this time, you will still keep an eye on those people in the American Concession to see what they are going to do, and report anything special immediately." After receiving so much news today, Wang Jitong had a plan in his heart and arranged Xiaohu's next step.

Xiao Hu said: "I know, sir, don't worry." With that, he got up and went out with a smile.

As soon as Xiao Hu left, Wang Jitong stayed for a while and followed out of the teahouse, wandered around for a morning and entered the teahouse again in the afternoon, and then returned to his attic office through the side door. He still has to investigate and investigate this East Asian Tongwen Academy, of course, it is not enough to rely on Xiaohu to keep an eye on him, and he has to rely on someone to take a look. He took out a booklet from the dark closet, which was a roster of some personnel in Shanghai, and then a person looked through it, and the roster was very rich in personnel information, in addition to family, his own situation, some test results, and some comments during the interview.

Finally, he selected five suitable candidates, then wrote the instructions, quietly went out of the attic, quietly came to a grocery store on the main road, and handed over the note he had written before when he bought cigarettes. The boss of the other party was not surprised, and took it gently. No one knew that this little grocery store was actually a transit station for the entire Fuxing Society, and the messages written on the slips of paper would go out to the wireless telegraph machine in the basement of Guò - if it was information from Shanghai, then directly to the receiving point; In the case of field information, then the 6-line remote radio telegraph station is forwarded to the destination.

Soon, the information was transmitted to the German training course of the Education Association, and the person in charge of the Education Association passed on the mission information to the relevant personnel, and these people were all staunch members who joined the Renaissance Society through the guò test through the medium of the local education association branches, and they were basically students in the school. According to Yang Rui's layout, education associations in various places will be a hematopoietic machine for the revival to absorb fresh blood. It has branches throughout East China, and in the name of education, it has secretly infiltrated into various schools, and has constantly set up one or several national salvation groups in each school with some reliable connections, and these groups have continued to spread some revolutionary remarks and news of the danger of various nationalities, and Zou Rong's "Revolutionary Army" and Chen Tianhua's "Fierce Return" are the focus of dissemination.

At the same time as disseminating these messages, the Education Society also held a number of contests for prizes and newspapers and periodicals, all of which had titles in the name of national salvation, and whose real purpose was to find out from these submitted articles articles that were inclined to revolutionary speech. If there are any revolutionary remarks in the article, then the people who write the articles are potential revolutionaries who have joined the Revival Society, and these people will be marked out, and then the members of the school group will observe and contact, and they can quickly distinguish whether they are real revolutionaries or not.

In this way, the number of people in the revival society began to skyrocket, and more than 30 new people joined the association last month alone, and this number is still expanding. In addition to the first two batches of cadets, the third and fourth batches of 50 cadets were barely gathered until the time of departure, which caused some later students to have insufficient time to learn German. Although the teaching materials of the military academy have been fixed since the second batch, the language barrier still causes some problems when training in the field. Of course, the students who can be admitted to the revival are not mediocre people, and the language problem is only a little troublesome for the later cadets in the early stage, and the problem does not exist after a few months in the military academy.
