"Third Master, the people in the Yang family and Lao Bai from the security headquarters are all afraid of the gendarmerie! This is interesting!" Scarface said.
"Yes, what Brother Scar said makes sense. If they can survive it, I hope they can help us!" Miss Chi continued.
Mr. Chi also understood this and said in frustration: "Look, what the hell did I do!"
Chi Jun said gently: "Third Master, I don't blame you for this. I asked you to do this. Third Master, please go ahead and check Huo Zhu. I guess that the people from the Yang Mansion will take action against us in the next few days."
!”
Chi Sanye looked at her in surprise and didn't know what to say for a moment.
Chi Jun turned to Scarface and said, "Brother Scar, the Yang family is attacking us. Please fight back, Brother Scar! Don't be polite to them!"
When the scarred face sneers, his scarred face becomes even more uglier, like a devil!
If he wants to fight back, he will fight back like a devil! This is what he has already made up his mind!
15-4
Huashang Street, Security Headquarters, in He Guixiang's office.
He and Bai Chongxin sat on opposite sides of the desk, staring at each other, and didn't speak for a long time.
They received reliable information that shots were indeed fired at the ambush site at the south entrance of Xiaonan Lane, but they missed the target! As for the north entrance of Xiaonan Lane, no shots were fired at all!
He Guixiang only knew that no shots were fired at Beikou! He didn't know who they were. But Bai Chongxin knew that the people ambushing at Beikou were Japanese! Why didn't they shoot? He really couldn't figure it out!
He Guixiang said: "Lao Bai, tomorrow is the last chance! Can you see what Chief Li's intention is?"
Bai Chongxin nodded. He had already seen it!
Without Chief Li, this temporary military court would not be able to open for at least a month! Chief Li’s original intention is to end this matter as soon as possible! And to protect those bastards Chen Zifeng from passing without leaving any trace!
Bai Chongxin said: "This is our last resort! I will go back and ask the witnesses to instruct them to kill Chen Zifeng and those people! As long as they bite them! How much they charge in the end is up to us!"
He Guixiang said: "Okay, you'd better tell Jiao Juncai again tomorrow morning and let him understand!"
Bai Chongxin stood up, picked up his bag and left without saying anything.
15-5
It was late at night, and room 215 of Deming Hotel was even quieter.
Mr. Sato and Takaji were sitting at the round table, sorting out various intelligence materials in front of them.
When they looked through these documents, there were only two things to consider in their minds. First, Wuhan’s defense strategy. This was the Japanese army’s advance preparation for the next attack on Wuhan! With good preparation, Wuhan would be captured in no time! Second, the “Barrel Plan”
"! If this plan can be implemented smoothly, the Kuomintang will collapse! The whole country can win it as soon as possible!
The focus of their research is naturally the "Barrel Project"!
For this plan, they have to consider several aspects, namely: national defense, senior generals, people's hearts and diplomacy.
Mr. Sato raised his head and looked at Takashi with a smile, "How much do you know about the diplomacy of the National Government?"
Takashi thought for a moment and then said softly: "Before coming to Wuhan, Takahashi and I paid a special visit to Ambassador Kawagata Shigeru. He said so many things, I think it can be used as a reference."
Mr. Sato nodded to him, "Please tell me."
Takaji said: "First, the diplomacy of the Kuomintang is basically good-guy diplomacy. To put it bluntly, it is weak! Sir, good-guy diplomacy cannot be respected by any country!"
"You mean, they simply have no diplomacy!"
"Exactly! If they encounter an international problem and can solve it in one of two ways: tough or weak, they will definitely choose the weak one!"
"This is indeed a pity." Mr. Sato nodded.
"The only way to gain respect from other countries is through strong diplomacy!"
"That's right to the point. It's very profound. Please continue." Mr. Sato smiled and nodded.
"Second, they rarely have outstanding diplomats, and most of them are mediocre diplomats! They nod and bow down in front of their superiors, but when they take office abroad, they become arrogant and domineering! They occasionally have friendly relations
country, but will soon be trampled into a hostile country by these mediocre officials! There are many examples of this!"
"what else?"
"Reporting good news but not bad news! A little merit will be praised by them so much! If they make a mistake, they will deceive the superiors and conceal it! They may even conceal it and not report it! It is difficult for the top leaders of the Kuomintang to figure out what happened in diplomacy.
trouble!"
"So, what's your conclusion?"
"My conclusion can be observed from all aspects of the entire national government. They only have selfish interests and no public heart!"
"So, they will lose!"
"Yes! They will lose! Their diplomacy has always been a diplomacy that must fail since ancient times!"
"Mr. Ying Si, did their Mr. Chiang fail to put people like Gao Zongwu in charge of negotiations with Japan?"
"Is there any doubt about this? Of course it will fail! Mr. Jiang simply hired the wrong person!"
Mr. Sato pondered and did not speak.
In his heart, he did not completely agree with Takashi's judgment.
He felt that the purpose of Mr. Chiang using people like Gao Zongwu was not to negotiate with Japan! But what was the purpose? He couldn't figure it out for a while.
15-6
This night finally passed.
In the morning, Chen Zifeng's brothers all got up, yawning and stretching.
They tidy up the house and line up in the kitchen or bathroom to brush their teeth and wash their faces.
Qiao Yanfang sat up from the bed and secretly glanced at Leng Yue from the corner of her eyes, watching her dressing, combing her hair, and arranging the bedding. She looked up and down Leng Yue's floor, left and right, but she didn't find any trace of the paper bag!
She used to be a quick person, but today she was slow.
When Leng Yue took the towel and toothbrush to wash her face, she had just put on her shoes.
As soon as she saw Leng Yue go out, she immediately sneaked to Leng Yue's bunk like a cat and rummaged quickly. Her rummaging movements were simple and effective. She only had to put her hands under the pillow, under the mattress, and into the quilt.
That’s it.
But to her surprise, she didn't touch anything that looked like a paper bag!
When she got up and picked up the towel and toothbrush, she looked at the entire room again. In this room, except for the two floor bunks, there was no place to hide anything!
She muttered: "Fairy!" and then went out to brush her teeth and wash her face.
When she saw Chen Zifeng in the kitchen, she rolled her eyes and said she didn't find anything!
Chen Zifeng really wanted to go upstairs and look through it himself. But when he thought about it, Qiao Yanfang was a thief, and the search took more than a day or two! It was impossible to ignore any details! That paper bag was not a needle, and it was not that easy to hide!
He was really surprised, where could that thief girl Leng Yue hide such a big paper bag!
15-7
Chen Zifeng and his brothers walked through Xiaonan Alley and went to the canteen of the Investigation Department to have breakfast.
Breakfast is very simple, including porridge, pancakes, and pickles. It’s not too delicious, but it’s filling.
After breakfast, they returned to the station like sheep shitting, and then changed into neat military uniforms.
At 8:50, they took a bus to the security headquarters on Huashang Street.
At nine o'clock sharp, they were neatly dressed in military uniforms and marched neatly. They once again walked into the large courtroom, preparing to receive a military trial.
The officers and soldiers participating in the trial were coming in one after another. There were some high and low voices nearby.
The reporters from Shanghai had already entered and were still sitting behind the dock.
Liao Ruolan looked around, quietly leaned forward, covered her mouth with her notebook, and said, "Sister, how are you?"
Qiao Yanfang didn't dare to look back and whispered the same: "Sister, don't worry, we have no problem!"
She thought, that thief girl Leng Yue hid such a big bag of money and even she couldn't find it! Then of course there would be no problem!
15-8
Still the same as yesterday, at 9:25, an officer shouted loudly: "Everyone! Stand up one by one!"
Everyone who attended the trial stood up. They looked a little more tidy than yesterday.
A group of senior military officers came in from the side door, walked up to the rostrum in a dignified manner, and humbly gave way to each other and took their seats.
Afterwards, Chief Li Chengguo nodded to Commander Ye Peng, Commander Ye Peng nodded to Chief of Staff He Guixiang, and He Guixiang leaned over and nodded to Jiao Juncai on the other side.
Jiao Juncai stared at the row of defendants below and said loudly: "The temporary military court of the Wuhan Security Command is now in session to continue the trial of the case of thirteen officers and soldiers of the Military Police of the Investigation Division extorting refugees!"
He paused and said loudly: "Xiao Ancheng!"
Xiao Ancheng stood up straight and answered loudly, "Here! Sir!"
"Xiao Ancheng, you are the defendant, but you are also the defendant's defender! Let me ask you now, do you admit your guilt?"
"Report sir!" Xiao Ancheng said loudly.
"Wait a minute! I haven't finished speaking yet!" Jiao Juncai glared at him.
"I'm sorry, sir."
"I would like to add one more thing, if you admit your guilt, I can ask the heads of this court to be lenient and treat you leniently! This is war time after all! For soldiers, I can give you a chance to make meritorious service! If you don't admit it,
Guilty! This court will conduct a serious trial in accordance with the law, and based on your crimes, you will be stripped of your military status and sentenced to prison! Do you hear me clearly?"
"Sir, please listen clearly!"
"Now, you can say it!"
"Sir, I am investigating and investigating the 13 officers and men of the gendarmerie. They did not take advantage of the checkpoints to blackmail the refugees. Therefore, we do not admit guilt!"
Jiao Juncai stared at him with an extremely serious expression.
He turned back and glanced at the officers on the rostrum, and said loudly: "Now continue the trial! Guards, bring in witness No. 1 and witness No. 2!"
15-9
The guard went out for a moment, and two officers were brought in.
As soon as the two officers came in, they stood at attention and saluted the officers on the rostrum.
Jiao Juncai said: "Two witnesses, please report your names and positions to the court!"
