Cao Dali calmly sat down on the chair and asked directly: "Brother, let me ask you something, are you hanging out with people from the military command?"
Cao Kun was slightly startled and asked, "Why do you say that?"
The two of them looked at me and I looked at you, just like guessing games, waiting for the other party to make a move. After being stunned for a while, Cao Kun said: "Where do you start talking about this?"
Cao Dali said bluntly: "Brother, we are of the same race. If it were anyone else, I wouldn't care about such trivial matters. We can't offend the military commanders because we can't offend the Japanese. Isn't Mr. Du arrogant enough? Why would he?
Hiding in Hong Kong? This is called understanding the overall situation!"
"When did you see me hanging out with the military commander's people?"
"It's okay if you don't. I also kindly remind you. Our Cao family has been poor for more than ten generations. Now that it's in our hands, we have finally saved a little bit of family property. Don't waste all your efforts because you took the wrong path. If you fight with others in the future, don't invite outsiders.
You don’t have enough manpower, so I will fully support you here.”
"Thank you. Dali. How about having dinner at my place at noon?"
There was nothing we could talk about, so Cao Kun had no choice but to retreat in order to advance. Cao Dali was also very sensible and knew that this was an order to expel guests, so he stood up and left. Before walking in, he couldn't forget to say something like "Brothers of one mind can cut through gold"
Class words.
After Cao Dali left, Ping Wusheng came in from the backyard. He had heard the conversation between the two brothers just now. It seems that the action of military commanders to help Cao Kun eliminate Lou Tianren was no longer a secret.
Cao Kun kicked the tree stump in the yard and cursed: "Damn it, there is a traitor in the Cao family!"
Ping Wusheng asked with a worried look: "What are you going to do?"
"I would rather brothers turn against each other and my family would be destroyed than I, Cao Kun, would never be a traitor! Mr. Ping, don't worry. My brothers from the military command helped me this time, and I understand in my heart. I know what to do in the future."
"Brother Cao Kun puts national justice first, and Ping really admires him. These days, my brother has made Cao Mansion his home, and it has indeed caused a lot of trouble. Once we drive away Little Japan, Brother Cao will definitely have a credit in his credit book.
.”
"Mr. Ping, you're too polite. Just say something if it's useful to me."
Ping Wusheng really wanted to ask for something. Since Wang Xin rebelled and Wu Wenkang notified him of emergency evacuation, he must know what the outside world is like. If he becomes a frog in the well, he will not know when the danger comes.
Takesheng Ping: "Can you send all your brothers out and pay attention to the movements in the public concession? Especially strangers, they may be plainclothes agents. In the past two days, I managed to escape from the clutches of the Japanese, along with twenty of my men."
Several operatives were also brought out. I think they will send a large number of plainclothes people everywhere to look for them. If they encounter someone who is alone, bring two back for interrogation. Also, pay attention to Lou Tianren, he may cooperate with the Japanese
Or the forces of No. 76 may attack you, so you must be more vigilant."
"Mr. Ping, please rest assured. I also have three to four hundred disciples. In a place like Shanghai where people are mixed, although I am not the leader, I can still be considered a person with some influence. Lou Tianren does not dare to humiliate himself."
Cao Kun thought wrong. Lou Tianren, like Zhang Xin, also guessed that Cao Kun was probably backed by military agents. The weapons of his men were bought from Liu Dacheng, and they can be said to be well-equipped. If not,
The powerful force behind it, with Cao Kun's manpower and equipment, shouldn't be able to get anything cheap.
In the battle at Chopstick Alley, Lou Tianren lost twenty-three of his brothers. All the guards around him were wiped out. If Cao Kun took action again, he would definitely die without a burial place. In order to protect himself, Lou Tianren took the initiative to find Li Shiqun.
.
A call came from the reception room saying that Lou Tianren, the owner of Fengmao Automobile Dealership, wanted to see him. Li Shiqun thought that the person who sent the money was coming, so he quickly asked Secretary Tian to go downstairs to pick him up.
Who would have thought that Lou Tianren was here to inform.
After listening to Lou Tianren's narration, Li Shiqun understood a bit. Boss Lou was very scheming. He wanted to use No. 76's hand to eliminate his opponent.
Li Shiqun asked back: "Are you sure that Cao Kun's men have infiltrated into military command agents?"
Lou Tianren didn't dare to call the bodyguards, but tried to leave some room for himself, saying: "I'm not sure. But based on their performance, I think they are inseparable. Why do you say that? As far as I know, Cao Kun's
My subordinates are all small gangsters, and they can fight in groups pretty well. If they fight with real swords and live ammunition, they are no match for me. This time, Cao Kun's so-called Youth Gang disciples all made extraordinary moves, and they were obviously professionally trained.
Therefore, I suspect that the military commander you have been looking for is probably in Cao Kun's house, so I came here to report to Director Li."
"Boss Lou, thank you for your loyalty. I will report this matter to the Japanese. Since the military commander can use this trick, why can't we use it? I will transfer some manpower to you, and you can find a problem to start another war.
I want to see who this Cao Kun’s subordinate is!"
Since they don't have the support of the patrol office, if they can interfere with the gang and kill in the name of the gang, the military agents will have no place to stay.
Overnight, Lou Tianren suddenly had more than a hundred bodyguards. These people were from the Hu Jun Operation Division 2. They were stationed at Fengmao Car Dealership and were here to cause trouble.
Tianluo immediately discovered something was wrong at Fengmao Car Dealership. It was rumored that Lou Tianren and Cao Kun fought and suffered a lot of losses. In such a short period of time, there were more than a hundred bodyguards. This is somewhat unreasonable.
"Viper, I think there's something fishy here. I'm sure those people are not the bodyguards hired by Lou Tianren. Judging from their age, posture, and equipment, they all look more like active soldiers."
Tianluo reported this situation to Liu Chengda, who also realized it. This situation is very important! The concession has always been a paradise for anti-Japanese elements. If Li Shiqun sent someone to intervene in the dispute between Jianghu and Jianghu, it must be a drunkard's intention.
Unfortunately, since Wu Wenkang successfully escaped, he has been unable to contact him in a short period of time. He can only contact him when it is convenient for him.
Thinking of this, Liu Dacheng said goodbye to Tian Luo and repeatedly told him to pay attention to safety. In the current situation, the safety of Tian Luo and Li Xiaochu is very important. These two people know their identities. They would rather sacrifice themselves than let them be exposed.
In the evening, Liu Dacheng drove his car to Fengmao Automobile Dealership. When Xiaoliuzi saw this, he was the first to come up to him.
"Director Liu, what brought you here?"
Boy Liu respectfully helped Liu Dacheng open the car door. Liu Dacheng was also polite and asked him to lead the way. He lifted his legs and walked towards the yard.
"Director Liu, please wait a moment. Mr. Lou has ordered that if a guest comes, he must notify him first. He will determine whether to go out to greet the guest in person based on the guest's identity."
Liu Dacheng smiled slightly and said: "Mr. Lou has quite a lot of rules. So today I want to see if I am worthy of him personally greeting me. You go ahead."
