"That's enough, that's enough!" Before Li Qiang could finish what he said, Acheng hurriedly stopped, "Good guy, you are asked to do such a dirty job. I really don't know why he trusts you. It's all a shame."
This is the kind of treatment only a confidant can get! Aren’t you curious as to where this trust comes from?”
"It would be an absolute lie to say that I'm not curious at all, but then again, since the result is what I want, then why bother with the other person's motives?"
"That's true, but what if..."
"Don't worry, do you think I'm so stupid that I won't leave a way out for myself? Even if that guy turns against him in the future, or wants to burn bridges, I'll have a way to deal with it, so don't worry.
"
"Well, since you have made up your mind, I won't say anything. The last thing is that after the Wannan Incident, although the independent regiment led by Fang Tianyi fought bravely, it also paid a heavy price.
They were all crippled, but even so, Fang Tianyi overcame all kinds of difficulties and reorganized a commando team with the remaining members of the old independent regiment, and personally served as the captain. In all major military operations, he
Saw the shadow of a commando."
At this point, Cheng glanced at the door subconsciously, and then lowered his voice and continued: "Actually, I just lied. The people who escorted me to find my eldest sister were not soldiers from the guard platoon, but Captain Fang's commando team.
!Just when we were about to cross the last blockade, we were still discovered by the enemy. Although we had almost reached the safe area, the enemy still fired at us desperately with machine guns. Captain Fang saw this
He immediately ordered the members of the commando team to retreat to the end of the team, and he even walked at the end and personally cut off everyone's rear. However, just after everyone was safely out of the enemy's shooting range, it was discovered that Captain Fang's left leg had already
He was shot and bleeding profusely. Before that, he relied entirely on his amazing perseverance and used the gun as a crutch to limp on."
Hearing this, Li Qiang couldn't help but admire this tough guy he had never met before, and quickly asked: "What happened next?"
"After joining the main force, I received treatment immediately from the military doctors at the headquarters, but the medical conditions were limited and there was no way to completely cure him. In desperation, I had to send someone disguised as a civilian and find a way to secretly send him to Shanghai for treatment."
"Going to Shanghai for treatment? This is definitely not a good time! Li Shiqun is currently carrying out the countryside clearing movement. You should have seen it when you came here. The blockades are one after another. Even the local people want to go smoothly.
Even if you pass through so many checkpoints, you have to be checked inside and out, let alone a wounded person with a gunshot wound."
"Of course I know this, otherwise why do you think I don't just follow the Seventh Division with my eldest sister to go south to AH and open up the Wanjiang base?"
However, before he finished speaking, Li Qiang asked with a puzzled look on his face: "Wait a minute, didn't the New Fourth Army already regain a firm foothold in northern Jiangsu? Why did they still risk going south to AH to open up the Wanjiang base?"
"There is no way. Due to unknown reasons, the Japanese and puppets figured out the specific location of the New Fourth Army headquarters, so the main force had to be forced to move to the middle of the Soviet Union. In this case, not only the daily expenses were huge, but also in a short period of time
It can still be overcome, but if time goes by, it will definitely cause more trouble. That’s why I took precautions and took such a proactive move."
"Using the natural barrier of the Yangtze River as a barrier to open up base areas along the river to develop trade? It's a good way to prepare for a rainy day!" At this point, Li Qiang suddenly came back to his senses, "Wait a minute, I've been talking for a long time, you kid!
This time I came back with a mission!"
Acheng shrugged, "What else? If Comrade Hu Fu hadn't considered issuing the task directly in the form of a secret message, which would very likely allow Yu Mei to take unauthorized action like last time, I wouldn't have run all the way.
Here’s to this trip!”
Before he finished speaking, Li Qiang curled his lips and said, "These words come from your mouth, but they are not convincing at all! If I remember correctly, didn't you kid also make the same mistake?"
"Please, I reported it to you before leaving. There is a fundamental difference between leaving her without saying goodbye!"
"Okay, I guess what you said makes sense, where is Captain Fang now?"
"An underground transportation station in Huzhou."
"Huzhou...that is to say, has the Qingxiang Movement reached that far? Not to mention that Li Shiqun's movements are quite fast." After saying that, Li Qiang suddenly changed the subject, "What else?"
"What?"
"Stop pretending. Others don't understand, but I don't understand you. You deliberately revealed so many details to me and complained so much about your suffering. Don't you just want me to shed some blood?"
"Hey! I didn't say anything!" As soon as he said this, Cheng immediately denied it, but then immediately changed his words, "Of course, if you insist on contributing to the construction of our new base area,
, then I won’t refuse! Oh, by the way, if you want to give it, give it in hard currency, and don’t take any cheap China Reserve Certificates! They won’t recognize it over there.”
"Of course I know this, but the problem is that even if I give it to you, you can't transport it out!"
"You can rest assured that as long as you nod, I will be able to transport the money no matter how much it is."
"Really?"
"of course!"
"Okay! Without further ado, let's leave now!" After saying that, Li Qiang stood up and walked out.
Upon seeing this, Ah Cheng quickly stood up and stopped, "Where are you going?"
"bank!"
"Why go to the bank?"
"I want you to take a look first so that you can have an idea in mind so that you don't get blinded later!"
Hearing this, although Acheng didn't say anything, he was still very unconvinced in his heart. He even thought to himself: Since I came to Hangzhou, I just saw you taking out a lot of money. When will you have money?
You made a large amount of money? Today I want to see how you can make me blind!
With this mentality, Ah Cheng followed Li Qiang out of the warehouse and went straight to Citibank.
When he saw the neatly stacked gold bars in the safe, which almost filled the entire box, his eyes immediately opened like bells.
"No, where did you get all these gold bars? Did you... rob the bank?"
"Please, the risk of robbing a bank is so high, I won't do it!" After saying that, Li Qiang locked the safe again, turned around and walked out.
However, just when Acheng thought Li Qiang was ready to leave, Li Qiang returned to the vault with the administrator and opened another safe. Although this cabinet was not filled with gold bars like the previous safe, it was
It was all filled with U.S. dollars, which made Cheng's eyes turn green.
"How about it, Cheng, you should have an idea now, right?"
"You...you...forget it, I won't ask anything else, I just want to ask you one thing, are you really going to give me all of this?"
Li Qiang replied proudly: "Of course, as long as you can ensure the safety of delivering these gold bars and US dollars to the base area, you can take as much as you can!"
"Okay, I admit that this is indeed far beyond my expectation, but the problem is not that big." As he spoke, Cheng lowered his voice and whispered to Li Qiang.
After hearing this, Li Qiang nodded suddenly and said: "I see, no wonder you were so sure before, you really came prepared! Then it's settled, you wait for my code!"
"Um!"
After coming out of the bank, the two parted ways. Acheng left Hangzhou quietly, while Li Qiang returned to the Suppression Headquarters as if nothing had happened.
In the blink of an eye, three days passed quickly.
Early that morning, for the first time, Tang Shengming summoned everyone in the headquarters, regardless of official position, to publicly announce the latest personnel arrangements to everyone.
"From now on, the East China Suppression Headquarters will be renamed as the Fourth Division of the Qingxiang Committee, which is mainly responsible for social welfare. The division chief is Zhang Zuyin, and the deputy division chief is Zhao Jie. The positions within the division are appointed by the division chief. In addition, the former suppression chief
The Action Brigade was renamed the Peace Volunteer Corps, and was merged into the Qingxiang Committee together with the Telecommunications Section and the Translation Section."
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the audience started whispering, and the one with the biggest opinions was naturally Zhang Zuyin himself.
Although he is still the director, compared with a director of the Confidential Affairs Division who specializes in social welfare, both power and status can be said to be in the sky or on the earth.
However, just when Zhang Zuyin was full of resentment and had nowhere to vent his anger, even more unacceptable blows hit him one after another.
Wang Manyun stood up and came to the crowd and read loudly: "The first order of the Secretary-General of the Qingxiang Committee appoints Wang Manyun and Tang Shengming as deputy secretaries-general and the chief secretary, Cao Pang! The second order of the Secretary-General of the Qingxiang Committee establishes
Qingxiang Committee Office in Suzhou, Director Li Shiqun, Deputy Director Tang Shengming. Order No. 5 of the Secretary-General of the Qingxiang Committee appointed Tang Shengming as the head of the staff group. Order No. 8 of the Secretary-General of the Qingxiang Committee appointed Tang Shengming as the head of the Third Division
Chief, in charge of the security team and Qingxiang police, and deputy director Cheng Tiexia. Order No. 15 of the Secretary-General of the Qingxiang Committee appointed Tang Shengming as the chairman of the Recruitment and Reorganization Committee, and Ming Qiang as the deputy chairman. The above appointment decisions have been announced since
It will take effect from today, and I hope you will give us your support and cooperation."
If Zhang Zuyin was just being honest at first, then when he heard that Li Qiang was directly appointed to such a powerful department, even though he was a deputy, with Tang Shengming's character who only wanted to fish when he went to work every day, even if
Being a deputy is no different from being a top leader.
Thinking of this, a subtle change quietly occurred in Zhang Zuyin's heart, even to the point of jealousy.
What made him even more unacceptable was that after the conference, everyone surrounded Li Qiang like stars holding the moon, and kept congratulating him, but he was left alone and no one cared about him.
Not even a comforting glance.
This made Zhang Zuyin so angry that he almost bit his back molars.
And just when he was about to reach the peak of his anger, he accidentally saw Haitang in the crowd. He immediately felt angry and evil in his heart. He couldn't help but think evil thoughts in his heart, "Let you be proud for a few days, I will
I want to see how long your boy can be proud!"
Although the rumors have been repeatedly refuted before, what is coming has still come, and many people feel fortunate that although the personnel adjustments this time are not small, even the Suppression Headquarters has been demoted to the fourth rank of the Qingxiang Committee.
department, but the ones most affected are the higher-ups of the headquarters, and the impact on the people below can be said to be minimal.
Therefore, there was not much turmoil. Soon after the new appointment was announced, almost everyone became busy.
Those who tidied up were tidying up, and those who didn’t know better thought that the headquarters was being renovated!
Li Qiang, who had nothing to pack, simply packed the drawers of his desk, hummed a little tune, and closed his eyes to rest.
At this moment, there was a sudden knock on the door, which brought back Li Qiang's thoughts that had gradually begun to relax.
"Come in!"
Before he finished speaking, several familiar faces walked in, namely Zhao Peng, the chief of the General Affairs Section under the General Affairs Office, Qian He, the chief of the Custody Section, Sun Ming, the chief of the Clerical Section, and Li Ou, the chief of the Communication Section.
"It's you! Is something wrong?"
"Um...Director, we have been discussing for a long time. We all want to continue to follow you. Do you think you can...can you take us with you?" Zhao Peng, who was walking at the front, asked cautiously.
road.
Li Qiang smiled, nodded readily and said without thinking, "Okay!"
As soon as these words came out, the four people couldn't help but look at me and me. Everyone's faces were filled with shock and disbelief. Some even couldn't believe that Li Qiang agreed to everyone's request so easily.
ask.
"What? Is there anything else?"
"No...no more, it's just..."
"Just what? Do you think I promised too hastily?"
Upon hearing this, the four of them nodded in unison.
Li Qiang continued with a familiarity: "But I don't think so. The purchase and distribution of daily office supplies within the entire headquarters, the management of all handymen, and the daily reception of personnel are all so orderly because of you.
The credit goes to Section Chief Zhao; and without Section Chief Qian, I wouldn’t have been able to discover Morita’s tricks in time, and I would have been blamed for him long ago; as for Section Chief Sun’s ability, it is even more indispensable, after all, he is responsible for recruiting
Compilation work and reporting are absolutely indispensable.”
Having said this, Li Qiang paused for a moment, and then turned his attention to the last one and the only woman among the four, "Your... name is Li Ou, from the Communication Department, right? The new one?"
"Yes, Director."
"I can understand that they want to follow me. After all, they are all old people who have been following me since the establishment of the Suppression General. But you, a newcomer who just came to the General Affairs Office, why do you want to do this?"
