Chapter 488 If you want people to know nothing, you must do it yourself
Jiang Xinyu suddenly said: "Sun Jie, what case did the deputy station chief go to the 305th Division to investigate?"
Sun Jie bowed and said: "The 305th Division has a serious problem of overpayment, and the deputy station commander went to investigate this case."
"Oh...have you found any evidence?"
"We found some, but they were all taken away by bandits."
"Where did you meet the bandits?"
"Twin tables."
"I remember that the 305th Division is based in Dawang Township, right?"
"yes."
"This is a bit interesting..."
Qiao Mu finally heard what Jiang Xinyu said. He waved to Sun Jie to go out first, and then said: "Xinyu, what do you think about this matter?"
Jiang Xinyu pondered and said: "Stationmaster, if the case of empty pay is true, it will usually involve military officials. Dawang Township is only five miles away from Shuangtaizi, and more than thirty bandits dare to commit crimes under the eyes of the garrison.
Don’t you think it’s strange?”
Qiao Mucai walked a few steps with his hands behind his back and said, "You mean, the so-called kidnapping by bandits was actually done by people from the 305th Division?"
"Otherwise, I can't think of any bandit leader who would be so crazy that he would dare to kidnap someone even though he knew the deputy station chief's identity!"
"How courageous is Yao Gemin? If this matter is exposed, there will be no need for a military court, or else he may be punished on the spot!"
"Yao Gemin is not necessarily the mastermind. He is the division commander. He has led troops for so many years. There will always be a few diehards under him who are willing to go through fire and water to solve problems for him!"
"Kidnapping Deputy Station Chief Wu just to get 30 gold bars? What effect will it have on the case of empty pay?"
"Maybe the deputy station director found something..."
"I don't believe they dare to kill government officials, that's really crazy!"
Qiao Mucai's words reminded Jiang Xinyu that if Yao Gemin was found to be underpaid, given his status and the relationship with Commander Chen, the most he could do was to be relieved of his military duties and stay at home, wait for the news to pass, and then take up his post in another place.
Dare to kill the deputy commander of the military command station. This is a capital crime. Why should he take such a big risk?
wrong!
It's not that simple!
There must be some unknown secret here...
Jiang Xinyu glanced at the map of Yanjin hanging on the wall. Dawang Township, Shuangtaizi, and Yushuling were almost in the same area!
An idea suddenly flashed in his mind. Cao Yunfei's guerrillas were in Yushuling. Could this matter be related to them?
Assuming that those bandits are guerrillas in disguise, how dare they openly kidnap the deputy commander of the military command in the 305th Division defense area?
Thinking of these doubts, Jiang Xinyu said: "Webmaster, I want to see Yao Gemin. Maybe I can find out the truth of the matter!"
Qiao Mu thought for a moment and said: "Okay, you are still in charge of the action team, but you have to hurry up. The deadline given by the bandits is before dark!"
At this time, it is the time to employ people. Others in the station will not have any criticism. The main opponent has now been tied up.
Returning to the action team, Jiang Xinyu immediately took two groups of people and drove to Dawang Township outside the city.
He did not go to Zhang Nina, thinking that it would not be too late to talk to him when he came back. Besides, that Miss Tong should suffer a little, otherwise she would never know how high the sky is!
…………
Dawang Township.
A spacious two-entry courtyard is the headquarters of the 305th Division.
Yao Gemin is in his forties, usually stern, and has an obvious scar on his face, which makes him look fierce and tough.
"Master, Jiang Xinyu, the operational captain of the Yanjin Station of the Military Command, would like to see you!" the guard came in to announce.
"Invite him in!"
"yes!"
"Jiang Xinyu? Have you heard of this person?" Yao Gemin asked the adjutant beside him.
The adjutant took a step closer and said: "Master, this person has some background. He has been lurking in Yanjin during the Anti-Japanese War. In just two years, he was promoted from a lieutenant to a major. This person is highly regarded by Qiao Mucai!"
Yao Gemin snorted coldly: "We are on the front line under fire and bullets, and we are in danger of death, and there is no agent who can be promoted faster than us!"
As soon as the door of the room rang, Jiang Xinyu stepped in, bowed to Yao Gemin and said, "Mr. Yao, please excuse me."
Yao Gemin said expressionlessly: "No need to disturb me. Your military commander has this power! I just don't know what Captain Jiang is here to investigate this time?"
Jiang Xinyu: "Deputy station chief Wu Jingrong was kidnapped by bandits in Shuangtaizi. Mr. Yao doesn't know about it, right?"
Yao Gemin sat down slowly and said: "I have just received the report and am preparing to send troops to Shuangtaizi to search for traces of bandits!"
Jiang Xinyu: "Commander Yao, I am here this time to investigate this matter and to inform you not to send troops to search for the time being!"
Yao Gemin said coldly: "Does the military commander have to get involved in the military mobilization situation? If this is the case, should I ask Commander Chen for instructions?"
When he arrived, Qiao Mucai reminded Jiang Xinyu that Yao Gemin's attitude was extremely tough and it was very difficult to have a smooth conversation with him.
Jiang Xinyu said calmly: "If the bandits sense the danger, they may endanger Deputy Station Chief Wu's safety!"
Yao Gemin took out a cigarette from his pocket, and without any intention of giving in to Jiang Xinyu, he lit one and took two deep puffs.
"You mean, if you don't send troops to clean up, how can you find the bandits? Are you waiting for them to surrender?" Yao Gemin had a trace of ridicule on his lips.
Jiang Xinyu looked at Yao Gemin and said: "How to find the bandits, Master Yao should know better than me!"
The muscles on Yao Gemin's face twitched a few times and he said, "What do you mean?"
"Kidnapping the person who found out the truth, and then sending troops to search everywhere, forcing the bandits to quarrel, and finally killing all the bandits, can not only achieve the purpose of killing people, but also clear away the relationship, and gain a reputation for being successful in suppressing bandits!"
After hearing what Jiang Xinyu said, Yao Gemin stood up suddenly, the scar on his face turned red, and said sternly: "Captain Jiang, you must provide evidence when you speak, otherwise, you will just make a false accusation!"
Jiang Xinyu suddenly laughed and said: "Mr. Yao, why are you angry? I'm just making a random analysis... However, Deputy Station Commander Wu was kidnapped by bandits in the 305th Division Defense Area. Mr. Yao cannot escape the blame."
Yao Gemin stared at Jiang Xinyu. He didn't know how much this man knew, and he couldn't help but feel a little surprised.
Jiang Xinyu walked up to Yao Gemin and whispered: "If you don't want others to know, you have to do nothing! With so many people involved, can you guarantee that everyone will always keep the secret?"
"I don't understand what you are talking about!" Yao Geminqiang said calmly.
Jiang Xinyu smiled and said, "We might as well make a deal to avoid losing both sides. Do you think it's okay?"
"...What deal?"
"I heard that the bandits not only kidnapped people, but also took away several documents seized from the 305th Division. If my guess is correct, it should be evidence of free money, right? That's fine. It's better to burn it.
Throw away those documents and let this matter be over."
Yao Gemin broke out in a cold sweat. This morning Wu Jingrong came to investigate the case of empty pay, and unexpectedly found a list of people who should have been destroyed. They were non-existent people, and they still defrauded them of their salaries and various military subsidies every month.
Wu Jingrong asked relevant personnel here, and Yao Gemin's men over there were already preparing countermeasures. They were all beneficiaries of empty pay, and they made a lot of money from this black income every month.
If the matter is eventually revealed, middle and lower-level officers like them will definitely be severely punished. Judging from the current intensity of punishment, it is entirely possible that a few of them will be shot.
At this life-and-death moment, these people decided to hide Yao Gemin's secrets and sent people to set up an ambush halfway to snatch the evidence back. However, they couldn't make it too obvious and let people see that they were going for the documents, so they
A kidnapping was arranged!
The original plan was to select some cronies from the guard camp to dress up as bandits. A quartermaster said that he knew the Communist guerrilla captains in Yushuling and it would be better to hire them to do this to avoid being recognized by the military commanders.
Those who came out were from the 305th Division.
Cao Yunfei was originally a bandit, and the fifty or sixty guerrillas were in short supply all day long. When he heard that there was such an easy deal, he agreed without much thought.
