Some people say that Zheng Zhi is the art of struggle and compromise. This sentence is absolutely a golden rule.
Liu Haiqing doesn't have the slightest fondness for these carnivores who only strive for power and profit in the face of national crisis, but now he can only choose one to seek refuge with, and he must find a way to gain the other's trust, and bite the other two to death to show his loyalty to the new master.
This is a very helpless thing.
Can Liu Haiqing choose no one and remain neutral?
You need to know who has been playing balance and neutrality on Zheng Zhi since ancient times.
Either he is a high-ranking emperor, or he is a big shot with a lot of troops, or he has power over the whole government, or he is famous all over the world, and he has to win over whoever comes to power.
If you dare to play neutral without this condition, then you will definitely die worse than Zhao Si'er's father.
"I understand." Liu Haiqing always took Su Yi's suggestions to heart, "I will contact Brother Ninth as soon as possible after I go to Jinling."
Su Yi hesitated slightly and said: "To say something that shouldn't be said, let Brother Jiu take the lead in everything. He is destined not to be reused by the authorities, so he doesn't have to worry about anything. But you are different. You have to be careful of being sharp and provoking.
People are afraid.”
Liu Haiqing couldn't help but smile at Su Yi.
Su Yi's selfishness revealed at this time not only did not destroy his image in Liu Haiqing's heart, but made Liu Haiqing more dependent and trusting in him.
Liu Haiqing knew that he regarded him as a real brother, so he would say such things to him.
"Low-key, I understand." Liu Haiqing said with a smile.
"If you really understood, you wouldn't stay in Chifeng forever." Su Yi sighed and shook his head.
The current Liu Haiqing is naturally not the robed gangster that Su Yi just met him. He is passionate, confident and cheerful. After experiencing so many things, he has also sharpened his skills. Moreover, he is in a high position and has also cultivated some majesty and superiority.
The reader’s habit of thinking about problems.
But deep down, he is still the passionate young man who pursues the pursuit of protecting his family and country.
When he saw the Chifeng soldiers throwing their lives and blood, he could not help but want to do more for them, and even used various methods to ask Hu Zhantang and Marshal Zhang for weapons and food.
He is a spy chief, and he is so close to a powerful warlord like Sun Laodian, how can he not arouse suspicion?
So for a while, Hu Zhantang began to distance himself from him, and even prepared to find someone to replace him.
If Hu Zhantang had not been threatened by Li Delin and Wang Zhaoming this time, he would not have used Liu Haiqing again.
Liu Haiqing only stayed in Jinmen for two days. During these two days, he stayed at Geng Mansion.
He didn't know what kind of style he had, but he insisted on pestering Su Yi to teach him martial arts.
"You can pull the plug, you are just playing with your brain, it is not your turn to compete with others in martial arts." Su Yi said, "Besides, what can you learn in two days?"
"I don't want to become a master," Liu Haiqing said, "I just want to learn some life-saving techniques at critical moments so that I won't be in a hurry if something happens."
"Why, are you in danger this time in Chifeng?" Su Yi asked with a smile.
"It's quite embarrassing to say it." Liu Haiqing sighed, "Do you still remember the leak of your whereabouts? After you sent me the telegram, I found this person. He is Zhang Lie, the deputy director of Chifeng Station."
"But at that time I guessed what you meant by sending the message. In order to hold him back, I played a trick and attracted his attention to Tongliao. You can succeed in Jinzhou, and the Japanese can only focus on Tongliao.
relation."
Su Yi nodded: "The boat capsized in the gutter?"
"It's over." Liu Haiqing was a little embarrassed, "I don't know how it happened, but he found out the clues and knew that we were setting a trap for him. Zhang Lie is also a smart man. After discovering this, he knew that he couldn't escape, so he pretended to
He saw me and then held me hostage at gunpoint."
"At that time... I actually had a chance to resist, but they restrained me with one move and put the gun on my head."
Time goes back to Chifeng more than three months ago.
Zhang Lie pretended to be normal and came to Liu Haiqing's office, and said to Liu Haiqing mysteriously: "Virgo, I discovered a big secret of Commander Sun. This secret is related to the safety of the entire Chifeng!"
Liu Haiqing knew that Zhang Lie was a traitor, but wanted to know what Zhang Lie was up to, so he gave Zhang Lie a chance to speak.
But Zhang Lie seemed to be very taboo, fearing that others would hear him, so he came closer to Liu Haiqing and seemed to be planning to lower his voice.
Liu Haiqing was also vigilant. When he sensed something was wrong, he immediately took action decisively. Unexpectedly, Zhang Lie restrained him with just one grab, and then put a pistol on Liu Haiqing's forehead.
"Don't move! Don't make a sound!" Zhang Lie warned.
"Come here!" But Liu Haiqing didn't listen to him at all and shouted directly.
The guard outside the door immediately pushed the door open and was shocked to see Liu Haiqing being pointed at a gun.
Zhang Lie also didn't expect Liu Haiqing to refuse to listen to him. It was too late to say anything at this time, so he had to hold Liu Haiqing hostage and confront Liu Haiqing's men.
"I told you to be quiet, why didn't you listen! Why didn't you listen! Do you believe it or not, I will shoot you to death!" Zhang Lie yelled angrily.
Under the threat of a gun, Liu Haiqing showed no fear and sneered: "Brothers, my last order is to shoot me! Even if I die, I will never let this traitor go!"
Liu Haiqing's words moved everyone present. Especially Zhang Lie, who was stunned for a long time and suddenly laughed miserably.
"Good! I, Zhang Lie, am lucky enough to follow a person like Virgo in my life!" He sighed with emotion, "Virgo, do you believe it? If people from Zhe Peng threaten me with my life and make me a traitor,
I will be like you and refuse to die!"
"I believe it." Liu Haiqing said slowly, "If you were not such a person, why would I bring you to Chifeng?"
"Zhang Lie, thank you for your trust! With your words, Zhang Lie will die without regrets!" Zhang Lie said in a trembling voice.
"Virgo, the Zhepeng people captured my parents, wife and children, and they forced me to submit. They said that only if I made a great contribution, would they get their lives back. I have no choice, I really have no choice..." Zhang Lie
Tears burst into tears.
"My parents worked hard all their lives to bring me up, but I didn't even have time to be filial to them! My wife took care of the house for me without any regrets. I didn't let her live a good life for a day, and I didn't even buy her a new dress...
And my son, he is only four years old and he doesn’t understand anything..."
"But the damn devils, cut off his ears to show me! They cut off the son's ears to show to his father... These beasts... Virgo, if it's you, what will you do? Ah? What will you do?"
"When Zhang Lie said this, his eyes were about to burst.
"Defend the family and the country, protect the family first, defend the country behind. I can't even protect my home, what country am I defending?" Zhang Lie said with tears streaming down his face, "Virgo, I know that I deserve to die for my crime. Come here today.
Looking for you, I don’t actually want to die with you, I just want to beg you to let me go..."
"Do you think it's possible?" Liu Hai said coldly.
"Yes, it's impossible." Zhang Lie smiled miserably, "How could you let me go and become a traitor to the Japanese? But what about my parents? What about my wife and children? Virgo, tell me, what should I do? Ah? Why?
I was fighting the Japanese on the front line, but my family members who were far away in Peiping were captured by the Japanese! Why? Why!"
At the end of the sentence, Zhang Lie almost screamed.
Liu Haiqing couldn't answer this question.
Zhang Lie smiled sadly: "At this point, I have nothing to say. Virgo, I have no regrets about following you. I only hate this world. I hate it..."
boom!
With the sound of a gunshot, Zhang Lie fell to the ground.
He eventually committed suicide by swallowing a bullet.
After more than three months, Liu Haiqing recounted this past incident again, and his voice was still trembling, which shows how much this incident affected him.
"After Zhang Lie died, I immediately sent people to find his family and prepare to rescue his parents, wife and children." Liu Haiqing said in a low voice, "More than a month ago, my people found them in a mass grave in Tong County.
The corpses of a family of four... After the Japanese agents found his parents, wife and children, they killed them all. His wife was also... Well, his son had a mole on one ear, so he was cut.
came down to threaten Zhang Lie. The Japanese deceived Zhang Lie that his family was still alive, but in fact..."
Su Yi also felt heavy in his heart.
When he guessed that he had been betrayed in Tongliao, he once wanted to rip off the traitor's skin, but now, he couldn't hate Zhang Lie anymore.
He couldn't imagine what he would do if someone arrested his parents and sister Su Weilai and threatened him to do something.
If this happens, he will be the next Zhang Lie, he can be a dog and he can give up anything.
So, how can he blame Zhang Lie for something he couldn't do himself?
"Do you know how the information about Zhang Lie's family was exposed?" Liu Haiqing gritted his teeth and said, "It's Jinling! I transferred Zhang Lie from the Jinling garrison. The document on secretly transferring him is highly confidential and will only be used in
Party headquarters filing! I can be sure that the leak must have occurred at the party headquarters! Those officials in Jinling are so busy fighting for power that they don’t even know that the Japanese have entered the top archives. What do they do for food?"
"Zhang Lie's tragedy was caused by them! If Zhang Lie's family had not been captured by the Japanese, he must have been a strong man! He would even make great contributions to this country in the future! But now, everything has been ruined!
"
Su Yi sighed and said: "This is not the first time such a tragedy has happened, and it will not be the last time... As long as this war is not over, the ugliness of this world will be revealed one by one in front of you and me."
"So I have never dared to marry a wife, let alone have children." Liu Haiqing said, "Firstly, I am afraid that my son will blame me. Knowing that the world is so miserable, why did I bring him into this world? Secondly, because we are like this
People cannot have weaknesses; thirdly, now I don’t trust anyone but you! If I really marry a wife and have children, I won’t rest assured until they stay at your house all the time.”
Su Yi smiled: "Then get married and have children as soon as possible! My sister-in-law and nephew will be raised in my house!"
"You have a beautiful idea!" Liu Haiqing glanced at him, "If you don't get a wife for a day, do I dare to leave my beautiful future wife here with you?"
"I'll go, you are doubting my character." Su Yi said in a bad tone.
"Nonsense!" Liu Haiqing rolled her eyes, "If I haven't had sex with a woman for more than twenty years, how dare you let your wife go to my house?"
"I don't dare." Su Yi said.
The two looked at each other and suddenly laughed loudly.
"Okay, stop inking, teach me some self-defense skills!" Liu Haiqing said, "It doesn't need to be too complicated, just something that can be used at critical moments."
"I think you might as well practice more with the gun and how to draw the gun as quickly as possible. As long as you keep the gun close to your body, it will be more effective than any martial arts you learn." Su Yi said.
It's not that he doesn't want to teach Liu Haiqing martial arts, or that he doesn't have such quick emergency self-defense skills, but that Liu Haiqing's status is basically something he won't have when fighting.
Zhang Lie's situation is so rare that Liu Haiqing may never encounter him again in this life.
If someone really wants Liu Haiqing to die, what's the use of Liu Haiqing learning one or two moves? They will still kill him in one face to face.
So, you might as well learn to shoot.
As long as you draw the gun quickly enough and fire the gun steadily enough, it's better than anything else.
"Well, when I was in the training class, I barely passed the shooting and fighting classes." Liu Haiqing scratched his head in distress, "I feel like I really have no talent in this area."
"You come to me about this matter, I have the most say." Su Yi said with a smile, "My marksmanship used to be as bad as shit, but then I gradually mastered the trick and developed the ability to pierce an opponent with a hundred steps.
"
"You know how to shoot?" Liu Haiqing sneered, "Don't be ridiculous, you are so repulsive to hot weapons. You know how many bullets there are in a gun. Do you know how to pull the trigger?"
"Give me the gun." Su Yi didn't waste any time and asked him directly for the gun.
"Really or not?" Liu Haiqing looked strange, "Don't be brave. Don't blame me if you're embarrassed later."
"Haha, here comes the gun!" Su Yi stretched out his hand.
"Yes, you don't have to carry it yourself." Liu Haiqing smiled and took off his gun and gave it to Su Yi, "Would you like someone to come and see our hero Geng's marksmanship?"
"No need." Su Yi said while fixing the holster on his waist, "No one in the world knows about my use of a gun."
Liu Haiqing wanted to make some teasing remarks, but Su Yi looked around for a few times, and suddenly looked up and saw a few sparrows flying not far away.
"That's it." Su Yi said.
Liu Haiqing looked up and saw four sparrows flying towards this side, but they were still far away.
"One, two..." Su Yi suddenly started counting numbers.
"three!"
When he counted to three, four sparrows had already reached the heads of Su Yi and Liu Haiqing.
At this moment, Su Yi suddenly drew his gun.
The speed was so fast that Liu Haiqing couldn't see his movements clearly.
Bang bang bang bang!
As four rapid gunshots like firecrackers rang in his ears, Liu Haiqing was just about to subconsciously look up when he saw that Su Yi had already put the gun back into its holster.
He then raised his head and saw four sparrows falling straight down.
Bang bang bang bang...
The sparrow's body fell to the ground.
Su Yi said leisurely: "I don't use a gun, not because I don't know how to shoot, but because I have no opponent when it comes to shooting."
