After receiving the testimony of Yoshiyoshi Oe, Matsuoka Yosuke immediately ordered the arrest of the American living downstairs on the grounds of espionage.
However, just when Yamamoto Kazuki was about to take the order and leave, he was stopped by Li Qiang.
"Wait a minute, Mr. Matsuoka, in my humble opinion, that American is certainly hateful, but the situation has come to this, and even if you order his arrest now, I'm afraid there's nothing you can do to restore it. In this case, why don't we use the trick and turn passivity into initiative?
"
"Use a plan to make a plan, turn passivity into initiative?" Hearing this, Matsuoka Yosei rolled his eyes, and then suddenly slapped his thigh, "What a man to use plan, and turn passivity into initiative. Mr. Aqiang, I really have you!"
"Mr. Matsuoka, thank you for your praise. I don't dare to show off my humble skills in front of you."
"Then tell me, how can we take advantage of the situation and turn passivity into initiative?"
"It's very simple, as long as we..." At this point, Li Qiang took the initiative to step forward and whispered to Matsuoka Yoyo in a low voice.
Watching the two singing in harmony, Yamamoto Kazuki beside him was confused. Monk Zhang Er was confused and couldn't ask questions, so he could only retreat to the side silently.
"Okay! This is a good idea, Mr. Aqiang. It seems that your control over people's hearts has improved a lot compared to when you were in Mantie!"
Li Qiang smiled and said, "Without him, I just saw too many people."
"Yes, experience often determines the height at which a person views problems. It's a pity that you are Chinese, otherwise..."
Speaking of this, Matsuoka Yoyo couldn't help but sigh, his regret and regret were beyond words, and Yamamoto Kazuki who looked aside was both jealous and happy.
Naturally, he was angry because of how much Matsuoka Yoyou thought highly of Li Qiang, but what made him feel lucky was that Li Qiang was only a Chinese after all. No matter how much Matsuoka Yoyou thought highly of him, he would still have some reservations.
Thinking of this, Yamamoto Kazuki felt a lot more balanced.
…
"This plan... is too risky, isn't it?" In the office, after hearing Li Qiang's next plan, Nan Menying couldn't help but said with a worried look, "How sure are you?"
"Seventy percent."
"No, it's too low."
"Sister Ying, I admit that this plan is a bit risky, but if there is a more reliable way, I don't need to take this risk!"
"But……"
"Sister Ying, you only have one chance. We can't just watch the comrades of the Second Route Army fight guerrillas with bare hands and rocks, right?"
Hearing this, Nanmen Ying was stunned, because not long ago, the deputy commander-in-chief of the First Army and Director Wei of the General Political Department was unfortunately shot during the transfer due to lack of firepower.
In the absence of medicine, illness and hunger combined with sacrifice.
Soon afterwards, the First Route Army was also in an increasingly difficult situation and had to merge the remaining troops into the Second Route Army.
It can be said that the anti-alliance fighters have reached a critical moment of life and death at this time. They not only have to face the crazy encirclement and suppression by the Japanese and puppets, but also endure an extremely harsh environment. Although they have persisted until now with amazing perseverance and tenacious fighting spirit, they still cannot survive.
Too many unnecessary losses were often suffered due to lack of guns, artillery, food and medicine.
"Sister Ying, if this batch of weapons and ammunition can be successfully delivered to the hands of the Anti-Japanese Alliance comrades, unnecessary losses may be reduced or even avoided. Even if it is just for this reason, I think this risk is worth taking, you say
Woolen cloth?"
"...Well, although I still insist that your plan is too risky, you are right. There is only this opportunity. Once you miss it, I am afraid you will never have the opportunity to provide weapons and ammunition to the comrades of the Anti-Union.
Support." At this point, Nanmen Ying suddenly changed the subject, "But you have to agree to one condition."
…
The time came to ten o'clock in the evening. Wang Dading, who had just had a fight with Liu Jinhua over a trivial matter, was sitting on the sofa and sulking. There was a knock on the door and he accidentally remembered.
"Who is it?" Wang Dading asked impatiently.
"I!"
"Ouch!" Although he only said one word, Wang Dading still recognized that the speaker was Li Qiang, so he immediately stood up, opened the door, and let him in with a smile on his face, "Little brother,
There must be something going on when you knock on the door so late at night, right? Are you introducing someone to me?"
Unexpectedly, Li Qiang couldn't help but frowned after hearing this, "Little brother? Who is your little brother?"
"Oh, it's just a title, why bother with it? Just call it smoothly, right?"
"Forget it, it's up to you. Let's get down to business. Sister Ying asked me to come over and inform you that the plan has changed!"
"Change? What happened? The plan was exposed?"
"It's not that serious. It's just that the location of the operation needs to be changed slightly."
Hearing this, Wang Dading finally breathed a sigh of relief, "Hey! I thought something was wrong! Why don't we just change it to another place? Just change it!"
"No, Lao Wang, listen to what I have to say first. The latest plan is for you to take action in the arsenal."
As soon as these words came out, Wang Dading immediately jumped up from the sofa, stared in disbelief and said: "What? You want me to take people to attack the arsenal? Are you crazy?"
"I said, can you please let me finish what I'm saying? I asked you to do it in the arsenal. Who told you to go and attack the arsenal?"
"Isn't that the same thing?"
"Why is it the same thing? Don't worry, I have already made arrangements. When the time comes, you just need to find a few more people who can drive and act according to my plan. You will be fine!"
"Really or not? Why do you sound so suspicious to me?" Wang Dading said with doubt on his face.
Li Qiang didn't talk nonsense to him and directly used his trump card, "It's okay if you don't believe what I say. You can't even believe what Sister Ying says, right?"
"Wait a minute, this new plan you are talking about was formulated by Nan Menying?"
"yes!"
Upon hearing this, Wang Dading's attitude immediately made a 180-degree turn, "It's you who didn't tell me earlier! Isn't this a waste of time?"
Before she finished speaking, Liu Jinhua's scolding came from inside, "Wang Dading, you are a big daddy!"
However, Wang Dading seemed to have heard nothing and said to Li Qiang calmly: "Ignore her! Just tell her what to do!"
But Li Qiang waved his hand and said seriously: "Don't worry, before I tell you the specific content of the new plan, there is something I must tell you clearly and plainly."
"Why did you become so serious all of a sudden?"
"Because what I am going to tell you next is a very serious matter, related to the future of the entire Heixiazi Ridge."
As soon as he heard that it was related to Heixiaziling, Wang Dading immediately put away his previous attitude. Liu Jinhua also walked out of the room, leaning on the door frame with arms folded, and pricked up his ears curiously.
"Listen, if you participate in this operation, Heixiaziling will definitely suffer crazy revenge from the Japanese and puppets after this, and it is very likely that it will even lead to annihilation. Even so, you must insist on participating.
What’s the next move?”
"How can that be done? There are hundreds of people living up and down Heixiazi Ridge! How can I risk their lives?"
Hearing this, Li Qiang was slightly disappointed, but it was understandable, "So, you plan to quit, right?"
"Who said we were quitting? The word 'give up halfway' does not exist in my dictionary, Wang Dading! They are just a few Japanese and puppet bastards! I have plenty of ways to deal with them! Don't worry!"
"Hey! Our family has a big top. Although it has many problems and a lot of flaws, there is one thing. It is reliable at critical times. This is a man!" Liu Jinhua rarely made any excuses, but took the initiative like a bird.
She got into Wang Dading's arms, touched his face with her hands, and said proudly.
Li Qiang also smiled and said: "It seems that Sister Ying is right. You are indeed different from ordinary bandits."
As soon as these words came out, Wang Dading immediately became energetic, "Did she really say that?"
Before he finished speaking, Liu Jinhua lightly touched his face. Then he coughed slightly and calmed down a little, "Ahem, let's talk about business! Let's talk about business!"
After explaining the changed plan to Wang Dading in detail, Li Qiang returned to his room. As soon as he entered the door, he saw Haitang and Gu Xiaomeng playing with the TV that he had deliberately damaged.
radio.
Although they had walked as gently as possible, before Li Qiang came closer, the two of them put down the headphones on their heads almost at the same time and looked over.
"Back?" Haitang asked casually.
"Well, I'm back. How's it going? Is it done?"
"There is no problem with reception, but I am not sure whether the transmission can be successful." Gu Xiaomeng replied truthfully.
"What is the power of the modified radio?" Li Qiang asked again.
"About 9 watts."
"No, it's too high. Such a high power is too easy to expose. Can it be reduced a little bit?"
"It's okay, but in that case, we have to work on the antenna. Otherwise, the stability of sending and receiving messages cannot be guaranteed."
"That's it..." After hearing this, Li Qiang pondered for a moment, and then continued, "That's good. I'll find a way to control the power at about 7 watts. As for the antenna, I think there should be one at Fengtian Station.
There is a way to solve it.”
"Okay then! Give me some more time."
"How much longer will it take? Is one day enough?"
"enough!"
…
After a night of silence, Li Qiang arrived at the restaurant on the first floor early the next morning. Not long after he sat down, he unexpectedly saw the American sneaking out of the elevator.
Although the man had tried very hard to pretend to be calm and normal, the look in his eyes that looked around for every possible escape route from time to time still completely betrayed him.
"Sir, Mr. Smith?"
The sudden greeting immediately startled the American, but even so, the man quickly returned to normal with his excellent psychological quality, and even asked with a faint smile on his lips: "
Are you calling me?"
"Yes, Mr. Smith, please introduce yourself. My name is Natasha, a special correspondent for "Izvestia"."
"Hello, Miss Natasha, nice to meet you, White Smith, who is in the ceramics business. Do you have anything to do with me?"
"Look at me, I almost forgot about the main thing. I came here specifically to thank you, Mr. Smith. It was really thanks to you that day that you notified the security team in time to block the hotel, so that the little thief didn't escape.
."
Hearing this, Smith was stunned, "So, the thief has been caught?"
"Yes! Not only did I catch it, but I also recovered all the stolen goods. Look!" As she said that, Natasha took out a very beautifully made wallet and waved it happily in front of Smith's eyes.
“What a beautiful wallet!”
"Thank you. This was made by my grandmother. It is also the only relic she left to me."
"I'm very sorry……"
"It's okay! But to express my gratitude, how about we have lunch together? I'll treat you to authentic Soviet food!"
"This..." Faced with Natasha's enthusiastic invitation, Smith actually wanted to reject it subconsciously at first, but at this moment, he suddenly realized a key issue, that is, although this hotel provides
There are many cuisines, but they are limited to Chinese, Western, Manchu and Japanese cuisine. They do not offer Soviet cuisine. Could it be that...
Thinking of this, Smith pretended to be surprised and asked: "Can we still eat authentic Soviet food here? Why isn't it written on the menu?"
"Of course you can't eat here, but there is a restaurant run by the Soviets two blocks east. The food is very good. I am a regular customer there!"
As soon as these words came out, Smith could hardly contain his inner ecstasy. He widened his eyes and confirmed, "So, the hotel's blockade order is about to be lifted?"
"Of course, the thief has been caught, so there is no need to continue to blockade the hotel!"
"Really? That's great!"
Natasha couldn't help but smile when she saw this, "Mr. Smith, isn't your reaction too exaggerated?"
Smith also realized his gaffe, and quickly scratched his head in embarrassment, "To be honest, I came to Fengtian to discuss a big business, and I didn't want to be inexplicably trapped here for several days.
I knew whether the deal could still be negotiated, so I rushed out. I'm sorry to make you laugh."
"It doesn't matter. As a businessman, you have to pay enough attention to every business! I understand, it's just that lunch..."
"To borrow an old Chinese saying, only beauty cannot be let down. How could I bear to refuse the invitation from such a beautiful lady?"
"I didn't expect Mr. Smith to know so much about ancient Chinese literature. To be honest, I am also very interested in ancient Chinese literature. It seems I should ask you for more advice."
"Learn from each other, learn from each other..." At this point, Smith glanced at his watch intentionally or unintentionally, "No, I have to go back and clean up first, so as not to be in a hurry later."
"Okay, I'll be waiting for you at the restaurant at eleven o'clock! See you there!"
