Chapter 91 The British who don't care
Sneak into the Tadio barracks, steal the weapons of the Dutch Indian army, then bring them back to the Katarin Hotel, and finally blow up the brittle wooden villa at the right time!

Everyone was used to Zhou Changfeng's extremely bold plan, and Shen Yu even felt that even if he proposed to directly raid the colonial authority building now, he would not be surprised.

Of course, this is just an exaggeration, because Shen Yu found that Zhou Changfeng's every plan was rough and detailed—it seemed to be bold and bold, but in fact it was not lacking in security.

If one plan fails, don’t panic, there are several backup plans; at the same time, these backup plans can also be randomly arranged and combined, which is very flexible.

For example, what if the infiltration into the Tadio barracks fails?One of the backup plans is to raid the villa as soon as possible, use a modified van as a fire support point, kill the peripheral guards, and go deep into the wolf's lair to kill Chai Guoyi!
What if the target escapes?Don’t worry, two teams of Javanese native policemen are lurking in the northwest and northeast of the villa respectively. If Chai Guoyi is escorted to escape and sees the “Javanese police” coming to his side in a hurry, will he be ok? Subconsciously let your guard down?

Zhou Changfeng Linlin always considered four or five situations, a total of nine plans, and checked and filled in the gaps through discussions with everyone, and added two new plans.

The team in charge of raiding the villa was led by Zhao Rong, and was divided into two assault teams of four, a firepower team of three, and a support team of three, plus Zhao Rong himself, a total of 15 people.

And Zhou Changfeng personally led Wang Mingfa and Xu Qinglan, as well as brothers Li Jiangong and Li Liye, to infiltrate the Tadio barracks.

That night, everyone dispersed to make final preparations before the action.

According to their requirements, the Batavia Station of the Intelligence Service found a six-wheeled minivan.

We piled sandbags one person high on both sides of its cargo compartment, and tied rope nets to block them to prevent the sandbags from falling down when turning or accelerating or decelerating.

Why not weld steel plates?Because thin steel plates can't stop rifle bullets, and welding is a hassle.

At the same time, three shooting holes were opened on both sides, and a 5mm thin steel plate was randomly found inside the door of the cab to block it. It is not extravagant to block rifle bullets, and it is enough to barely block pistol bullets.

This was the last day before the thunder came. Zhou Changfeng and the others were recharging their energy, but their opponents reacted belatedly.

At noon, in a small Tudor-style building with red brick walls and a brown sloping roof in the south of the city...

This is MI[-]'s Site B in Batavia. Director Glenda has received a report claiming that Ming is planning to take action against "Clay", and that agents may even have arrived in Batavia.

"Clay" - this is the code name they gave Chai Guoyi.

The basis of the report can be said to be subjective, the whole article is estimated, possible, maybe, conjecture, and the only basis with barely any value is that three of the flights that arrived in Batavia two days ago had a far more than normal proportion of young people. Chinese.

Glenda thought for a few seconds, then picked up the pen and gave instructions - to maintain the current security plan, unless there is an obvious targeted situation, and then consider increasing the security force or transferring the "clay".

But a few hours later, in the evening.

The presenter of the report, Agent Jonelle, knocked on the door and greeted him in person. He was sweating profusely, and it seemed that he had just returned from the outside.

Glenda sat up straight from the leather seat and said calmly, "A cup of tea? Or a glass of water?"

"No, sir, I found the situation a bit strange!" Jonelle took out a piece of paper from his purse, "I thought those flights were suspicious, so I went to investigate."

"Did you do it yourself?" Glenda asked casually, implying that you did not use the organization's resources without authorization.

"Yes, I spent a day today. Most of them are missing, but I still tracked down some of them. They are in the Katalin Hotel..."

"Stop, Jonelle, this is just your suspicion, we can't act arbitrarily until there is an obvious threat."

"But, sir, we can arrest them now!"

"This is Batavia, not London." Glenda stood up slowly with a calm face, "Even in London, the Fifth Division should deal with them."

The fifth branch counters espionage internally, and the sixth branch conducts intelligence activities externally. The functions of the two are not the same.

Despite Jonelle's arguments, Glenda still refuses to investigate the Katharine Hotel.

In the end, he only agreed to increase the security level of the target's hideout without sending additional troops.

The existing waiters and cooks were replaced; all food had to be purchased from random places every day; the drinking water in the villa had to be randomly checked every six hours; Chai Guoyi himself had to move to a small room in the northeast corner of the first floor.

That's all, the exhausted Jonelle walked out of the small building at Site B in frustration.

Looking in the direction of the Katalin Hotel, he stared at it for a long time, and even wanted to investigate it by himself, but finally gave up—the officer didn't pay much attention to it, so why should he work so hard?
The sun was setting, and it was getting late.

After more than five hours, when the moon climbed to the top of the tree, everything has reached the point of no return?

To the southwest of the Tadio barracks, five figures had quietly approached the barbed wire fence.

Outside the barracks is the sidewalk. After passing through a row of trees beside the road, there is a trench, about half a meter deep and one meter wide, filled with rotten dead leaves.

However, under the dead leaves, there are animal traps arranged every few meters?Fortunately, he had been prepared, otherwise it would be bloody bad luck if he stepped on this thing.

However, the Dutch and Indian Army with lax military discipline didn't care at all about this. The animal traps were all rusty, and some of them had been triggered by cats and dogs, but no one had reset them or replaced them with new ones.

Wang Mingfa and Li Jiangong took needle-nose pliers and cut them one by one. Finally, they made a relatively spacious hole in the barbed wire fence, and several people got in immediately.

On the guard tower in the distance, the soldiers on duty yawned lazily, not even bothering to turn the searchlights.

According to the known information, the armory was on the west side of Tadio's barracks, so the five people quietly touched it.

It was around midnight at this moment, but the whole camp area was not quiet. There were constant chattering from the barracks in the distance. It was the soldiers of the Dutch Indian Army playing cards and chatting, and there was even mixed with the laughter of women?

Day after day of leisure, the Dutch Indian Army lost all vigilance - there were only clear sentries, no hidden sentries, let alone mobile sentries, and the distance of about 60 meters along the way was unimpeded.

The three soldiers at the gate of the armory also looked bored. Two of them put their rifles aside and sat on the ground leaning against a wooden box to doze off. Only one recruit was obediently standing guard with his rifle on his shoulders.

Little did they know, the three crossbows had already aimed at them secretly.
