"Brother, is it really okay to hand over such an important operation to a fledgling boy?"
In the ward, Li Qiang couldn't help but asked worriedly after learning that Minglou had handed over the task of assassinating Saburo Sasai to Jiang Xianhua, the captain of the newly rebuilt Third Action Brigade.
Xiang Minglou looked trusting in him, "Don't worry, although this guy is still young, he is definitely a good assassin. Since he was appointed as the captain of the Third Action Brigade last year, he has successfully led the team to carry out assassinations."
He carried out more than ten assassinations without any failure."
At this point, Minglou glanced at the door cautiously, and then lowered his voice and continued: "Even Zhu Yishi, who killed the traitor Fu Xiao'an with an ax last year, was the one who was responsible for picking up and escorting him out of Shanghai."
As soon as these words came out, Li Qiang was reminded of Xicai, "Is he really that powerful? Then I have to find opportunities to have more contact with him."
"Speaking of this kid, I have quite a relationship. I met him almost ten years ago."
"Ten years ago? When did he become so old?"
"He was only about eleven or twelve years old! But although he was still young at the time, his character was far more mature than his peers. It left a deep impression on me."
"I'm telling you, brother, even if the impression is profound, it's only in a hurry. So many years have passed in a flash, and I'm afraid things have changed. On what basis did you determine that he is the boy who left a deep impression on you in the first place?"
"You're right. After so many years, that boy has not only grown a lot taller, his voice and appearance have also lost their youthfulness, and even his name has changed. But he stubbornly persists in fighting off rape with iron and blood.
The fact that he called himself a regiment instead of the Third Action Group, and the ax made with special craftsmanship on his waist were enough for me to conclude that he was the boy from before.
"The Iron-Blooded Rape Group? Isn't that Wang Yaqiao's secret organization? Brother, can this guy be his descendant?"
"That's not true. He should be regarded as a closed disciple. It is said that he has obtained the true inheritance of the 'Axe King' at a young age, so his subordinates will each have an ax on their waist when taking action."
"Wait a minute, brother. If that kid is really Wang Yaqiao's close disciple, doesn't he have an sworn feud with Dai Li and Juntong? Then why does he..."
"This is the most rare thing about this boy. He even put aside his personal grudges in order to fight for the national crisis. It is no exaggeration to say that nowadays there are not many people who can truly abandon their ego and fulfill the righteousness."
"So brother, you have already started to make plans for him?"
Minglou smiled, "How else do you think he became the captain of the Third Action Brigade?"
Hearing this, Li Qiang nodded suddenly, and then lowered his voice and asked: "By the way, brother, have you heard of the code name 'Jin Nian'?"
"'Jin Nian'? Never heard of it." Minglou thought about it carefully and shook his head.
"Can you find a way to verify it with the Southern Bureau for me?"
"That's no problem, but I advise you not to raise too much hope. After all, for latent agents like us, the original files are top secret. Unless the identity is exposed, it will be difficult to find any clues."
"I see!"
However, before he finished speaking, Wang Manchun's voice suddenly rang out, "I asked you two to speak a little lower down?"
Minglou hurriedly stepped forward and asked with concern: "Manchun, why are you up?"
"You two are talking so loudly, can I not get up?" Wang Manchun complained angrily.
"Uh, what... Brother, Sister Manchun, I have something else to do, so I'll leave first!"
However, before he could reach the door, he was stopped by Wang Manchun, "Wait a minute, I heard Saburo Sasai that you are going to deal with mentioned by Minami Yunko. It is said that this person is extremely lustful and goes around looking for fun almost every night. He is
Regular visitors to Fireworks Street. If you choose to do it there, your chances of success should be much higher. But don’t blame me for not reminding you. If you are as careless as I was with Chen Bing this time, there will be no one to clean up the aftermath for you!
"
"Chen Bing? But I clearly..." As soon as he said this, Li Qiang couldn't help being stunned. He had clearly handed over Chen Bing's body to Uncle Li for disposal. Why did Wang Manchun say that?
Just when Li Qiang was puzzled, Minglou on the side slowly told the truth of the matter, "Uncle Li left too many traces when handling Chen Bing's body. If Manchun hadn't secretly taken action,
If you erase those traces, I'm afraid it will be traced to you and Mingtai."
Hearing this, Li Qiang suddenly realized, and then he said to Wang Manchun sincerely, "I see, no wonder! Thank you, Sister Manchun."
After leaving the hospital, Li Qiang rushed to the Quanye Chamber of Commerce without stopping.
From a distance, he saw Haitang and Gu Xiaomeng, who had already packed their luggage, waiting at the entrance of the Chamber of Commerce, so Li Qiang simply jumped off the rickshaw and ran over in one breath.
"Two minutes, you are always on time! I thought you had forgotten to see us off!" Haitang said angrily, holding her hands in front of her chest.
Li Qiang hurriedly smiled and said: "Look at what you said, how could I forget such an important thing?"
However, Gu Xiaomeng on the side couldn't help but asked: "Brother Ming, do you really not need us to stay? At least we can have more helpers, right?"
"No, after being out for so long, the commander must have an explanation. Besides, you are not like me, who can use an excuse to take care of a pregnant woman..."
As soon as these words came out, Haitang couldn't help but muttered in a low voice, "It's not like you can only take leave to take care of pregnant women!".
"What did you say?"
"No...it's nothing!" After saying that, he blushed and lowered his head, hurriedly pulled Gu Xiaomeng, who had a smirk on his face, into the car and drove away.
After bidding farewell to the two of them, Li Qiang returned to his mansion.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw a familiar figure pacing back and forth anxiously in the living room. It was not someone else, but surprisingly it was Mingtang.
"Brother Mingtang, why are you here?"
"Is it okay if I don't come? This early in the morning, you little bastard didn't take care of you at home. Where did you go?"
"Where else can we go? Of course it's the hospital!" As he spoke, Li Qiang lifted the food box on his hand.
"Can't we just let uncle go for such a small matter?" Mingtang said with a hint of complaint, and then secretly glanced in the direction of the kitchen, and then lowered his voice and continued, "Come on, let's talk in the study!"
"No, I don't want to be scolded! Big brother said that if he finds me entering his study without permission, he will break my legs!"
"Then do you believe that if you continue to mess around like this, I will break your legs right now?"
"Uh..." Seeing that Mingtang had gone so far as to say what he said, Li Qiang had no choice but to bite the bullet and pry open the locked study door.
"You're quite skilled! Isn't this the first time?"
As soon as these words came out, Li Qiang suddenly felt speechless, but he still suppressed his anger and followed him into the study.
"I just received news that Akagi Yikayuki's sanction order has been reactivated. Why hasn't there been any movement from your side?"
Li Qiang spread his hands and said, "The time is not yet ripe, and there is nothing I can do!"
"What time?"
"Japan's decision to advance southward."
"Going south? That means starting a war with Britain, the United States, and the Netherlands at the same time. Are these little Japanese devils too crazy?"
Li Qiang shrugged, "When a person is in a desperate situation, of course he can do anything, and the same goes for the country."
"Having said that, as far as I know, the Kwantung Army stationed in the Northeast has already begun preparations for live-fire exercises!"
"Because of this, I concluded that the Japanese cabinet and senior headquarters have decided to abandon the northward advance and instead attack southward. As for the exercise, I think it is just a means to appease the Kwantung Army."
"Well, that makes sense." Mingtang nodded in agreement, and then asked as if he suddenly remembered something, "By the way, tell me the truth, do you have a role in sanctioning Chiaki Akagi this time?
"
…
It was night, Li Qiang took advantage of the vast darkness to arrive at a secret stronghold of the military commander, and knocked on the door according to the pre-agreed code.
"Knock knock knock... knock... knock knock..."
It wasn't long before someone came to answer the door. It was none other than someone else, and surprisingly it was Xu Baichuan, the fourth son of the eight-member army.
"Why are you here? When did you arrive?"
"This afternoon." Xu Baichuan said, then he stuck his head out and looked around. After confirming that no one was following him, he opened the door completely, "Let's go, let's go in and talk if we have anything to say."
There were no lights in the house, only three candles were lit, and the light was slightly dim.
"Okay, now that everyone is here, let's get started!" As soon as Li Qiang came in, Chen Gongshu was the first to speak.
Before he finished speaking, a young voice rang out. He pointed at the corner of Yuyuan Road and Difeng Road on the map and said, "Then let's start with me! According to my investigation
, ever since Akagi’s wife became pregnant, she has to go to the Sino-Japanese cooperative hospital for prenatal check-ups every once in a while. And the route for each round trip is basically fixed, so we can set up an ambush here in advance to wait for work.
, wait for Chimu Akagi to enter the ambush circle and annihilate him in one fell swoop!"
"Well, yes, from the map, this place is indeed a perfect place to set up an ambush." Xu Baichuan said and turned to look at Li Qiang, "What do you think?"
"I agree, but there are no traffic lights at this intersection, so there is a prerequisite for setting up an ambush here, and that is to find a way to stop his car. This will increase the chance of a successful assassination."
"This is simple, just leave it to me." Zheng Yao, who was sitting by the window, took a deep puff of his cigarette and said calmly.
As soon as these words came out, Xu Baichuan immediately aroused dissatisfaction, "Old Liu!"
However, Zheng Yaoxian still replied calmly: "Don't worry, fourth brother, I know what it means to do this!"
Hearing this, Xu Baichuan, who knew Zheng Yaoxian's temper well, stopped insisting and continued: "Then the difficult Saburo Sasai will be next. With him guarding him, even if Akagi falls into our ambush, I'm afraid
It’s also hard to get.”
"Speaking of Saburo Sasai, I have heard some rumors about him..."
So Li Qiang shared the information about Saburo Sasai that he had obtained from Wang Manchun with everyone one by one.
"This information is so important, Xianhua, the next step is up to you!" Chen Gongshu said excitedly to the young man who first proposed the assassination plan.
The latter nodded dutifully and said confidently: "Don't worry, boss, I already know what to do."
"This must be Captain Jiang from the Iron-Blooded Anti-Corruption Corps, right? I've long heard that he is a master of assassination. I can't believe he's so young!"
Jiang Xianhua responded unceremoniously: "Only mediocre people can judge ability by age."
"Xianhua!" Chen Gongshu scolded him quickly after hearing this.
Li Qiang waved his hand, instead of being angry, he smiled and said: "It's okay, it's just that this scene seems familiar!"
Xu Baichuan on the side said coldly, "More than just deja vu? Isn't what he just said the exact words you said to Boss Dai when you first joined the Fuxing Club!"
"Yes, after so many years, there are not many brothers left who joined the Fuxing Club together. Is it necessary for Sixth Brother to take such a big risk?"
Xu Baichuan also had a look of helplessness on his face, "There is no way, maybe you don't know yet, at the end of last year, with the efforts of the Chairman, we jointly established the National Mobilization Conference Economic Inspection Brigade with the Zhongtong gang, but it just passed
In less than half a year, most of the important positions in the team were taken over by the Central Commander, and Boss Dai appointed several captains one after another, but there was nothing he could do against those guys. Then I thought of Lao Liu!"
"That's right. When it comes to how to deal with those bastards from Zhongtong, no one dares to take first place if Brother Six considers him second." Li Qiang said with great agreement, "It's just that this mission is different from the past. Maybe you guys won't be able to do it well."
We will face an all-out manhunt by all the navy police and military special forces. Let alone evacuation, I am afraid there will be no place to hide..."
However, before Li Qiang finished speaking, Xu Baichuan laughed and said: "You can rest assured, Lao Liu and I have experienced this kind of scene a few years ago, so we have experience!"
"Well, if you can persist for a week without being discovered by the enemy, I will have a way to send you out!"
"A week? It's really not a short time! But it's not a big problem, right Lao Liu?"
"Of course!" Zheng Yaoxian lit another cigarette for himself and said with a precious word.
"Okay then! According to my inference, the next time Akagi will take his wife for a prenatal check-up will be on the 17th of this month, so Captain Jiang, no matter what method you use, you must get rid of that Saburo Sasai before then.
, of course, the later you act, the more advantageous it will be for the subsequent assassination operation."
"In that case, I'll start one day in advance!"
However, at this moment, Chen Gongshu suddenly asked a question that everyone seemed to be deliberately avoiding, "Okay, now that the action plan has been determined, who should light the powder keg in the hospital?"
