Ye Ming's eyes sharpened and he asked in a deep voice: "You want to recruit me?"
Although it was only their first meeting, Ye Ming was almost certain that the guy in front of him was most likely Xu Rui, the Dameishan Military Division Headquarters of the Communist Party of China. It was not difficult to make this judgment, because if the other party was lying, this person
Lies can be easily exposed, not to mention that there is no need for the other party to lie to him.
Xu Rui shook his head and said, "No, I just want to help you."
"Help me?" Ye Ming said, "I don't need your help."
"You really don't need help?" Xu Rui said in amusement, "You don't need it, and your comrades don't need it either?"
Ye Ming immediately fell silent. He really didn't need help from others. With his current income as a killer, he could live a good life in Shanghai. However, those comrades in the lonely camp were in urgent need of food and medicine, especially
The wounded may die at any time without medicine.
At this time, Xu Rui actually didn't know that Ye Ming was from the 524th Regiment.
But Xu Rui guessed from Ye Ming's identity as a killer that he must have many comrades who needed to make money, and Ye Ming's silence at this time strengthened Xu Rui's judgment.
This is actually a psychological observation of appearance.
Xu Rui added: "I can provide the best medical conditions for your comrades."
"Pull you down." Ye Ming said after a moment of silence, "Don't think that I don't know anything. Your Communist Party is in a difficult position to protect itself. The underground party organizations in Shanghai are about to be uprooted by the Japs and No. 76. What's more,
To help us, you should think about how to protect yourselves."
"That was before." Xu Rui chuckled and added, "Yes, before I came to Shanghai, the situation of our Communist Party in Shanghai and even the entire Songhu area was indeed not optimistic. However, after I came, it has been completely improved.
There has been a change, now we have penetrated into the little devils and are ready to fight."
"Break into the Japanese?" Ye Ming's eyes narrowed again when he heard this.
Xu Rui smiled slightly and said: "I won't tell you just now. My current cover identity is Liang Wuyi, the nephew of the great traitor Liang Hongzhi, and I also serve as the president of the pseudo-organization East Asia Peace Promotion Association. More importantly, next
Our East Asia Peace Promotion Association also needs to set up a secret service, and I can recruit you and your comrades into the secret service."
"Bah." Ye Ming immediately sighed and said coldly, "We are not traitors."
"He's a traitor in name only." Xu Rui shook his head and said, "Not really a traitor."
"We don't deserve to be traitors in name only." Ye Ming said, "We don't want to be poked in the back."
Xu Rui immediately adjusted his direction and said: "It doesn't matter, I can provide you with weapons and equipment and activity funds, so that you can stay in Shanghai and continue the fight."
Ye Ming was slightly moved when he heard this.
To be honest, Ye Ming didn't believe Xu Rui at first when he said he wanted to help him. However, Xu Rui said again and again that he wanted to help him. Ye Ming inevitably thought that the Communist Party's motive for helping him might not be pure.
I'm afraid the motive is to recruit them, veterans of the National Army, into the Communist camp, but it must be true.
Logically speaking, there is no need for Xu Rui to lie to him. What good can lie to him?
At that moment, Ye Ming asked in a deep voice: "Commander Xu, do you really want to help us?"
"Really." Xu Rui patted his chest and said, "otherwise, why would I have gone through so many twists and turns, not only following you across Shanghai, but also swimming across the Huangpu River and coming to Pudong to drink from the northwest wind."
Speaking of this, Xu Rui really felt the cold, and immediately said: "Well, my husband made a fire and froze me to death."
It is true that Xu Rui is the king of soldiers. He can swim with arms in severe cold weather of minus 20 degrees. This is true, but this does not mean that he is not afraid of the cold. In fact, as long as he is flesh and blood, he will be afraid of the cold.
, Xu Rui was no exception. Xu Rui went nearby to collect some bamboo branches and prepared to light a fire.
Ye Ming did not try to escape, but helped collect bamboo branches.
After a while, the bonfire rose, and Ye Ming stared at the dancing flames again and said: "Commander Xu, I can see that you are also a cheerful person, otherwise you would not have told me so many secrets, so I will
We will no longer hide and tuck in with you, as long as you can find a way to get the brothers out of the entire Lone Army Camp, we will do it with you!"
"Gujun Camp?" Xu Rui was startled when he heard this, "Are you from Gujun Camp?"
Of course, Xu Rui is no stranger to Gujun Camp. This is a heroic army that will leave its name in history!
Four hundred warriors defended Sihang Warehouse for seven days. Although not many Japanese were killed, they inspired countless Chinese people and changed the situation of the entire Anti-Japanese War in China. Of course, the reason why Gujun Camp is famous in history is not because of its achievements.
, but because of his tragic experience that makes people cry.
The four hundred soldiers of Gujun Camp listened to the lies of the Concession Industry Bureau and withdrew into the concession. They were disarmed and detained by the Concession Industry Bureau. This detention lasted four years. After the outbreak of the Pacific War, the Japanese army occupied the public concession and Gujun Camp
The four hundred soldiers were then sent to Southeast Asia and the Pacific, and finally all died in foreign lands.
What is infuriating is that the Nationalist Government and Chairman Chiang turned a blind eye to this.
Judging from the time, the 400 soldiers of Gujun Camp have been detained for almost two years.
In two years, Ye Ming has never seen a National Government official willing to come forward and ask the Concession Ministry of Industry and Commerce to release people. More than 400 soldiers in the isolated camp were starving in Italian army prisons.
In terms of medical treatment, people endure tremendous pain every day, but the National Government authorities are unable to do anything about it.
The citizens of Shanghai really couldn't stand it. They spontaneously donated money and materials to save the soldiers in the Guying camp. However, relying on the donations from the people alone was simply a drop in the bucket. Ye Ming's reward as a killer was also a drop in the bucket. Therefore, the soldiers in the Gujun camp lived a poor life.
It was very difficult, and I had to endure inhuman torture from the Belarusian prison guards.
It is precisely because of this that Ye Ming proposed that as long as Xu Rui can find a way to rescue the brothers in Gujun Camp, they can join the Communist Party without hesitation! In a word, Ye Ming and the brothers in Gujun Camp have already completely despaired of the National Government and Chairman Chiang.
So they don't resist following the Communist Party.
"Yes, I was the one who slipped through the net in the Gujun Camp." Ye Ming nodded and said, "If it hadn't been for escorting a female college student from the labor force across the bridge, I would probably be in jail now."
Xu Rui immediately stood up, stood at attention and saluted Ye Ming.
Ye Ming quickly stood up, returned the military salute, and said, "Commander Xu, what are you doing?"
"It's nothing, I just want to show respect to your brothers in the Gujun Camp." Xu Rui put down his hand and said, "Your brothers in the Gujun Camp are the heroes of all China and even the entire nation! I admire you very much."
When Ye Ming heard this, his eyes could not help but turn slightly red, but these were all false after all.
Ye Ming added: "Commander Xu, admiration cannot be eaten as food. If you really think highly of us, then find a way to rescue all the brothers in our lonely camp. I can promise you on behalf of the group now that as long as you
If we can rescue the entire Gujun Camp, our Gujun Camp will work with you, the Communist Party!"
"Don't worry." Xu Rui said solemnly, "No matter what you choose in the end, whether you return to the National Army or stay with us, I will find a way to rescue the lone army."
Afterwards, Ye Ming left his contact information, then stood up and said goodbye to Xu Rui.
However, Xu Rui waited until his clothes were dried before getting up and looking for a way back to the public concession. By the time Xu Rui returned to the Chinachem Hotel, it was already eleven o'clock in the night. By this time, Liu Mei had already gone to work at Paramount, and Jiangnan was also outside.
They went out to look for the veterans of the National Army. Only Wang Husheng and Di Gua stayed in the hotel waiting for Xu Rui.
Seeing Xu Rui coming back, Digua immediately stood up and said, "What am I talking about? The commander will be fine."
Wang Husheng also stood up and came forward and said, "Old Xu, where have you been this whole day? You've made us worried."
"What are you worried about? What is there to worry about?" Xu Rui said with a smile, "I said, the person who can kill me has not yet been born from his mother's belly."
"You have to be crazy." Wang Husheng said angrily, "I almost got killed today."
"Today was indeed thrilling." Xu Rui said with a smile, "But in the end, wasn't there a near miss?"
Wang Husheng asked again: "By the way, where is the killer? You chased him for a long time, but finally let him run away?"
"This is a long story." Xu Rui poured himself a glass of water, and when he was about to elaborate, the door suddenly opened, and he saw Jiang Nan walking in.
Looking at Jiang Nan's face, he knew that this trip was not going well.
Xu Rui smiled and asked: "Why, you didn't find any today?"
"That's not true." Jiang Nan shook his head and said, "There are quite a few veterans of the National Army we are looking for, but there are not many who are willing to join the East Asia Peace Promotion Association, and even fewer who are willing to join the Hurricane Team."
The Hurricanes mentioned here in Jiangnan are not the military's Hurricanes.
Wang Husheng said: "This is also expected. It takes courage to break the status quo."
People are basically the same. They all have inertia or inertia. After they have adapted to one kind of life, it is difficult to break the status quo and accept another life. It is even harder if this other life requires risking one's life.
This does require great determination and great courage.
The National Army veterans stranded in Shanghai have indeed had a hard life, but most of them have found a job in Shanghai. This job may be humble and the income is barely enough to survive, but it can guarantee their survival. If they join Jiangnan
Joining the Hurricanes means that you must give up your current life, and it also means that you may die at any time.
Therefore, unless someone has great determination or courage, it will be difficult to make this decision. Jiangnan couldn't find a few after running around for a day.
