In May of the twelfth year of the Republic of China, Shandong gangster Sun Meiyao once caused a shocking robbery in Lincheng. He stopped a train from Pukou to Tianjin and took away 39 foreign passengers and 71 people on board.
This move caused an uproar around the world and made the Beiyang government at that time very passive.
However, Sun Meiyao's troops made a magnificent turn from bandits to Beiyang officers and soldiers. Although Sun Meiyao did not end well in the end, it still gave Xu Rui room to imagine. Therefore, when Xie Yuan proposed to bring Italian prisoners,
When threatening the Japanese when necessary, Xu Rui immediately thought of the Lincheng robbery caused by Sun Meiyao.
Of course, Xu Rui's ultimate goal is different from that of Sun Meiyao. Sun Meiyao just wants to complete the transformation and transform from a bandit to an official soldier, while Xu Rui's ultimate goal is to have a foothold in the public concession, or to force the Concession Ministry of Industry and Commerce to recognize the western area of the concession as
The site of the Solitary Army Camp was used to accommodate National Army veterans and refugees stranded in Shanghai.
Xu Rui has reason to believe that this goal is possible!
The main pressure came from three aspects: the Concession Industry Bureau, the National Government and the Japanese.
The first is the Concession Industry Bureau. At the beginning, the Concession Industry Bureau will definitely react fiercely. If no accidents occur, the British and American troops stationed in the public concession will definitely send troops. However, the Lone Army Battalion will let them know that force will not work, so just rely on stationing troops.
The American and British troops in the public concession are by no means the opponents of the Lonely Battalion.
Then came the National Government. The Concession Industry Bureau found that the problem could not be solved by force, so it would definitely put pressure on the National Government through diplomatic channels, forcing the National Government to intervene and order the isolated army camp to surrender on the spot. With Chairman Chiang’s bird-like nature, he would definitely succumb.
Under pressure from the American and British governments, the Lone Army Camp was ordered to surrender on the spot.
But it's of no use. The Lone Army Camp at this time is no longer the Lone Army Camp before.
Moreover, Xu Rui will not let Gujunying openly display the banner of the Communist Party. Xu Rui will not even come forward directly. He will only use the name of Gujunying to express his bloody and tearful accusations against the Concession Industry Bureau and the British, American and Italian troops.
The betrayal two years ago and the subsequent oppression and persecution of the soldiers in the lonely camp.
In other words, Xu Rui intends to build the Gujun Camp into a lone army that spontaneously rises up to fight. From the moment they raise the banner of the Gujun Camp, they will no longer accept the leadership of the National Government and will launch an independent campaign.
During the War of Resistance, Xu Rui also blocked the channels through which the National Government exerted pressure on the Gujun Camp.
Finally, there is the Japanese government's response. In terms of military strength, the Japanese army is fully capable of calming the situation.
But Xu Rui has reason to believe that the Japanese government will not come forward. First of all, the Concession Industry Bureau will never invite Japanese troops into the concession. Secondly, because of the presence of a large number of Italian hostages, the Japanese army must think twice before intervening, because after armed intervention,
If the rescue is unsuccessful and a large number of Italian hostages die, it will undoubtedly seriously affect the image of the Japanese army in the minds of Italians, which will in turn make the subsequent alliance unfavorable to the Japanese government.
Because of this, the Japanese army will never easily intervene in this incident.
It’s a completely thankless matter. Why should the Japanese government get involved?
At this time, in addition to complaining to the US and British governments and asking them to deploy troops from the country to suppress it, the only way out for the Concession Industry Bureau was to directly negotiate with the Gujun Battalion. So will the US and British governments send troops from the country? Obviously impossible.
At this time, the United States has not yet emerged from its glorious isolationism, but the British government is desperately conniving with the Japanese government. How could it send heavy troops to Shanghai to stimulate the Japanese government at this time?
The Italian government may have a strong desire to mobilize troops from the country, but due to its weak naval capacity, it would be considered powerful if it could mobilize troops within half a year. Therefore, the Italian government's response is completely negligible. This is
He said that as long as Gujunying dared to persist and show its sword, the Concession Industry Bureau had no choice but to negotiate directly with them.
At that point, all that's left are technical issues, which are nothing more than asking for prices and then bargaining.
All in all, all in all, this deal is worth doing.
The Gujun Camp faithfully carried out Xu Rui's order, and in fact, the soldiers of the Gujun Camp very much welcomed Xu Rui's order. Because of the British army's perfidy and the unfair treatment they suffered in the detention center, the soldiers of the Gujun Camp had no respect for the Western White Army.
Pi Zhu has been angry for a long time. Now that he has the opportunity to take revenge, how can he hold it back?
With an order, the second company, third company, machine gun company and artillery company of the Lone Army Battalion swarmed out and began to search for white people house by house, and the focus of the search was churches, garden houses and various entertainment venues. Suddenly,
The entire Western District of the Public Settlement was in chaos, with chickens and dogs everywhere.
Xu Rui is really not afraid of things getting serious, and he won't even let the church let him go.
Five minutes later, the general patrol room in the West District of the Concession received an alarm. The patrol officer on duty did not know what happened and thought that there were Chinese people making trouble near the Italian military station. Although he was surprised that the Chinese dared to make trouble near the Italian military station, he still called.
Notify the police station closest to the incident and order them to dispatch police officers.
A quarter of an hour later, more than a dozen Chinese police officers arrived at the scene in a car. However, what appeared in front of them at this time was a sight that they would never see in their lives. Under the night, they saw groups of Chinese policemen armed with live ammunition.
Soldiers, escorting Western white people with disheveled clothes and anxious expressions, were walking forward.
Those white Westerners who were usually aloof and aloof were now trembling like sheep.
There was a tall, strong white man who wanted to run away, but before he could run a few steps, he was thrown to the ground by several Chinese soldiers who were chasing him. Then, several Chinese soldiers picked up bullets and smashed his head and face.
Han held his head in his hands, rolling on the ground in pain, while loudly begging for mercy: I won't run away, don't kill me, don't kill me.
A few Chinese soldiers gave up. After the strong white man got up, he became more docile than a sheep.
There was also a white man wearing a top hat and holding a civilized stick in his hand. He looked like a so-called British gentleman. At first, this British gentleman tried to show off, but a Chinese soldier came up and slapped him on the face without any explanation.
After two slaps, the British gentleman immediately became honest and walked forward obediently.
Seeing this scene in front of them, more than a dozen Chinese police officers were completely dumbfounded.
God, am I not blind? Why do I feel that the whole world is turned upside down? Shouldn’t it be the Westerners who bully the Chinese? Why, the Chinese soldiers are bullying the Westerners in turn? But while I was stunned, more than a dozen Chinese
The patrol officer also felt indescribable excitement. It should have been like this a long time ago. The Chinese people should have been like this a long time ago!
This is Shanghai, this is the boundary of China, it should be like this a long time ago!
"Hey, what are you doing?" When more than a dozen Chinese patrol officers were in a daze, a Chinese soldier suddenly came over with a shining bayonet and asked sternly, "The solitary army camp is doing business here, stay away from idlers!"
"Gujunying, are you Gujunying?" More than a dozen Chinese patrol officers became more and more stunned.
Of course they are no strangers to Gujun Camp. In fact, the whole of Shanghai is no stranger to it.
The eight hundred warriors who fought against the Sihang Warehouse inspired many Shanghai people.
"Why are you still standing there? Get out of the way!" The Chinese soldier became impatient and said angrily, "Do you want to die? You have to leave within ten seconds, otherwise, we will kill you without mercy!"
More than a dozen Chinese patrol officers quickly got into the car, started the car, turned around and left.
But halfway through the car, the patrolman driving the car suddenly stepped on the brakes and said, "I have to go back!"
The dozen or so patrol officers in the carriage looked at each other and said, "Let's all go back and kill those stupid white people!"
It turned out that these dozen Chinese police officers had long been fed up with the arrogance of white people on patrol. How could they hold back when they saw the lone army camp arresting white people? At that time, they hurried back to the West District by car.
He joined the operation and followed the soldiers of the Lone Army Battalion to arrest Western white people. The Lone Army Battalion did not refuse this uninvited help.
(Dividing line)
Things are getting serious, things are really getting serious.
The first to get the news was still the military commander.
When Dai Li received the report from the military command of the Shanghai District, the entire public concession was still in chaos.
"What did you say?" After Dai Li heard this, he stood up from Xiang Yingxin and shouted, "The Lone Army Battalion has come out of the detention center and is arresting white people in the western part of the concession?"
"Yes." Mao Renfeng's voice came through the screen, carefully and respectfully.
Dai Li sat up and said to the outside of the screen while getting dressed: "Qi Wu, come in and talk."
Mao Renfeng, who was outside the screen, responded softly, then turned around the screen and walked in. At this time, Dai Li just opened the quilt and jumped out of bed. Mao Renfeng's eyes instinctively squinted, just in time to see Xiang Yingxin.
With two snow-white slender thighs, Xiang Yingxin also noticed Mao Renfeng's gaze and smiled slightly at him.
As Dai Li's number one general, Mao Renfeng has personally trained eighty if not one hundred beautiful spies. It is not that he has never seen beauties, but he is still a little dizzy by Xiang Yingxin's beauty. Mao Renfeng must
He admitted that Xiang Yingxin was the most in line with his aesthetic among all the women he had ever seen.
Dai Li also noticed the flirting between the two, but pretended not to notice.
Women are just tools to Dai Li, and he will never be emotionally involved. Therefore, Dai Li doesn't mind Mao Renfeng sleeping with Xiang Yingxin at all. He is even willing to give Xiang Yingxin to Mao Renfeng in exchange for Mao Renfeng's loyalty.
, of course, even if Xiang Yingxin becomes Mao Renfeng's wife, Dai Li can still call her to sleep with him anytime and anywhere.
