My Spy Years

  Chapter 775 Three Brothers

  Comrade Liu Bo raised his arms and asked questions full of grief and will to fight.

   Right now.

  At the entrance of the small auditorium, which was used by the ancestral hall, a righteous and handsome New Fourth Army officer was watching this scene intently.

  Suddenly, the comrade officer raised his right arm and shouted loudly.

   "Down with Japanese imperialism!"

   This slogan immediately aroused the enthusiasm of the entire small auditorium.

  Comrades stood up one after another, raising their arms and shouting anti-Japanese slogans.

   "Down with Japanese imperialism!"

   "I swear to the death that I will not be a subjugated slave!"

   "The war of resistance must be won!"

  Comrade Liu Bo raised his arms and shouted on the stage. He also saw the comrade standing at the door of the small auditorium, showing a slightly surprised expression, then a smile on his face, and a slight nod.

  The latter looked at him with a complex expression, and finally nodded.

  …

  After the presentation.

   "When did you come here?" Liu Bo asked, passing a cigarette over.

  Fang Muheng took the cigarette and took a look at it. It was rolled with old newspaper.

   "Can you get used to smoking?" Fang Muheng asked.

   "It's precious." Liu Bo smiled, and glanced at Fang Muheng, meaning that I don't give up to ordinary people.

  He struck a match and lit a cigarette for Fang Muheng first, and then lit himself, took a puff, and narrowed his eyes comfortably.

   "I often hear the commander praise you." Liu Bo said, "A propaganda backbone, a very capable cadre."

   "You're not bad either." Fang Muheng glanced at Liu Bo, "I heard that Deputy Commander Gu will personally ask for credit for you."

  The two of them looked at each other and stopped talking. There was a moment of silence.

   "Why don't you beat me up?" Liu Bo said with a smile.

  Fang Muheng did not speak immediately, he took several puffs of cigarettes in a row, shook his head, "Actually, I have forgiven you a long time ago."

"The commander praised you as an internationalist fighter, one of the countless red fighters fighting against imperialist oppression all over the world." Fang Muheng said, "I didn't think so much. In my heart, I am more inclined to recognize you as Liu Bo. It's not the Setouchi River."

  Liu Bo was obviously very happy when he heard the words. Fang Muheng said this, meaning that he regarded him as a Chinese compatriot.

  He didn't speak, and continued to listen to Fang Muheng.

   "The last time we met again in Nanchang, my first feeling was that I was so embarrassed. I felt embarrassed when I thought of being played around by you." Fang Muheng said.

   "I also said at the time, thank you, thank you for leading me to the red road." Liu Bo said with a smile.

  Fang Muheng glared at Liu Bo, if he didn't know that Liu Bo's words came from the heart, he would really hit someone.

  Liu Bo laughed, and asked, "Are you still a little embarrassed?"

  Fang Muheng nodded, shook his head again, and finally said, "Respect is greater than embarrassment, and revolutionary friendship is more important than everything else!"

  When Liu Bo heard this, the two looked at each other and laughed heartily.

  The two stretched out their right hands and held each other tightly.

   "Mu Heng, why did you come here today?" Liu Bo asked.

   "I was ordered to see comrade 'Yu Chang'." Fang Muheng said seriously.

  …

  At this moment, the Qianyuan Temple on Yugang Peak of Qinglong Mountain.

   Last June, the first detachment of the New Fourth Army entered Maoshan under the leadership of Commander Chen.

  The commander set up the headquarters and political department in Qianyuan Temple.

  This has also become the most central area of ​​the Maoshan Anti-Japanese Base Area, and even privately called "Little Yanzhou" by comrades.

  Last year on the fourteenth day of the eighth lunar month, Japanese invaders invaded Qianyuan Temple, and the troops fought guerrilla warfare against the enemy in the deep mountains of Maoshan.

  Being unwilling to disclose the whereabouts of the New Fourth Army, thirteen Taoists including Hui Xinbai, the abbot of Qianyuan Temple, were brutally murdered by Japanese invaders, and the thousand-year-old Taoist temple was reduced to ruins.

  The current Qianyuan Temple can no longer be called a Taoist temple, there are ruins everywhere.

  A young New Fourth Army officer strode forward.

   "Is the commander there?" He Guan asked.

   "Platoon Leader He, the commander is waiting for you inside." Said the sentinel soldier.

  He Guan didn't go in directly. He tidied up his military uniform and straightened the cap of the New Fourth Army. Then he walked up to the old wooden door that leaked air, "Report to the commander, He Guan, the third platoon leader of the guard company..."

   "Come in." The commander shouted from inside.

"yes!"

  …

  He Guan pushed the door open and came in, and saw that the wooden door was about to fall down, so he quickly grabbed it and put it away carefully.

   "It's broken, use it as a door panel." The commander said (PS1).

  He Guan turned around and saw that the commander was eating, with a look of surprise on his face.

   What surprised him was not that he happened to meet the commander eating, but because he saw the commander holding a steamed bun in one hand and a porridge with almost countless grains of rice in the other, eating deliciously.

   "Commander, will you eat this?" He Guan exclaimed.

   "What are you doing, what are you doing?" The commander glared at He Guan, "If you can eat it, I can't?"

   As he spoke, he took a sip of gruel, put the broken bowl on the table, and wiped his mouth, "It's business, comrade, I have a very urgent task for you."

   "Resolutely complete the task." He Guan saluted, then looked at the commander expectantly, "Commander, what task?"

   "Are you, Comrade Liu Bo, and Comrade Fang Muheng sworn brothers?" The commander looked at He Guan with a smile and asked.

  After hearing what the commander said, He Guan, who was still heroic just now, suddenly showed embarrassment.

  …

"In the past two days, the Japanese have tightened their checks on all passages and checkpoints leaving Shanghai." Cheng Qianfan said, "I don't know what provoked the enemy, but this change must cause us to pay enough attention. "

   "Could it be that the news about the troop movement leaked out, which aroused the vigilance of the Japanese army?" Lao Huang pondered.

  Hearing this, Cheng Qianfan and Lu Dazhang frowned. If the Japanese really got this information, it would be as difficult as heaven to safely transport so many people out of Shanghai.

   At this moment, Cheng Qianfan caught a glimpse of a car parked across the road downstairs, it was his car, and then saw Li Hao get down from the driver's cab, glanced at Chunfeng Deyi Building, and then ran across the road.

   "Li Hao came to see me, maybe there is something wrong." Cheng Qianfan said, "Old Huang, you and Lao Lu keep in touch with Zhang Ping at any time, and you must pay attention to safety."

   As he spoke, he picked up a peanut and threw it into his mouth, "As for the work of transporting troops, we must be more cautious, and temporarily suspend all kinds of transport preparations. At this time, the enemy may be spying secretly."

  He looked at Lao Huang, "Old Huang's suspicion is justified, and I also have a bad feeling."

"clear."

   "Will pay attention."

  …

   "Okay, you old Huang, you slipped your tongue. I knew that you must have hidden good wine." Cheng Qianfan said loudly, "Inspector Lu, next time I must ask this old guy to bring that bottle of wine."

   "Old Huang, this is the order of Vice President Cheng, do you dare not listen?" Lu Dazhang laughed loudly and said.

   At this moment, there was a knock on the door.

   "Who is it?" Cheng Qianfan asked.

   "Vice President Cheng, Officer Li is looking for you." The waiter's voice came from outside the door.

   "Brother Fan, it's me." Li Hao said.

   "Come in." Cheng Qianfan said.

  Li Hao opened the door and came in. The shop waiter took a look inside, bowed and left with a smile on his face.

   "Inspector Lu, Doctor Huang." Haozi greeted Lao Huang and Lu Dazhang first, then walked to Cheng Qianfan, and whispered with his hands.

   "Inspector Lu, Lao Huang, I still have important things to do." Cheng Qianfan stood up, cupped his fists and said, "Let's go first."

  Lu Dazhang and Lao Huang hurriedly got up, and politely sent 'Mr. Xiao Cheng' away.

   "What happened?" Cheng Qianfan got into the car and asked.

   "Araki came to look for Brother Fan, he recognized me, so he asked me to drive to pick you up to meet him." Li Hao said.

  Cheng Qianfan nodded and didn't ask any more questions. He knew that with Araki Harima's vigilance, he wouldn't say anything to Li Hao.

  …

  Cheng Qianfan ordered Li Hao to drive, while he was lost in thought.

  What about Zhang Ping?

   Probably not.

  This matter has been handled by him in a timely and skillful manner, and the key to solving this matter has been handed over to Araki Harima. With Araki's temperament and current ability, Cheng Qianfan believes that Araki will help him handle it very well.

  What about Chen Xiangjun?

  Cheng Qianfan frowned slightly, and after thinking for a while, he also rejected it.

   I don’t know why, but Jiro Sanben’s trust in Wang Kangnian seems to have increased suddenly, which also forced Araki Harima to temporarily shelve the original plan:

The plan itself is not about Chen Xiangjun, nor is it even about whether Wang Kangnian is really a problem. The focus is on the degree of trust Sanben Jiro has in Wang Kangnian, or to put it bluntly, whether Sanben Jiro still thinks that Wang Kangnian has important use value .

  Cheng Qianfan was not in a hurry. To get rid of Wang Kangnian through the hands of the Japanese, he needed patience.

   "Brother Fan, do you want to tell the brothers to follow?" Haozi asked.

   "Little monkey." Cheng Qianfan said casually.

   "Yes!" Li Hao nodded, rolled down the window, and gestured to the outside, and saw a car coming up, with a co-pilot and two people in the back seat.

  …

  Li Hao drove the car around and came to Lawton Road.

  Lorton, the name of the road was named in memory of a Frenchman who died in the Battle of Verdun in World War I.

   There are many such road names in the French Concession. For example, Kaufman Road is to commemorate a Westerner who once worked for the Yunnan Post Office and died for France in World War I.

Yes, even if an ordinary foreigner who has only the slightest relationship with Shanghai died fighting for the powerful French Republic, the French Concession authorities will name the roads in the French Concession after him, so that the entire concession, the whole Shanghai Come to remember this 'warrior'.

   This is the tragedy of the poor and weak country!

   So far!

  …

  Li Hao got out of the car, looked around vigilantly, and then went around to help Cheng Qianfan open the car door.

   "You wait for me here." Cheng Qianfan got out of the car and said, "Two people come from the little monkey."

   "Understood." Li Hao waved his hand towards the car following behind.

   "Brother Fan." Hou Pingliang trotted over with one of his men, swaggeringly following behind 'President Xiao Cheng'.

   This is an office building transformed from a Shikumen residential building.

   Hanging a sign of 'Tongda Sea and Land Transportation Company'.

   "Vice President Cheng, please come inside." A special agent of the special high school waited at the door.

  Cheng Qianfan strode in, and Hou Pingliang and the two were about to follow.

   "Both of you, please stay."

  Hou Pingliang's face remained unchanged, his eyes looked at Brother Fan, and his hands were already touching his waist.

   "Don't get me wrong, we have prepared tea and snacks for the two brothers."

  Hou Pingliang looked at Cheng Qianfan.

   "Go." Cheng Qianfan nodded slightly, "Boss Huang is an old friend."

  Hou Pingliang then removed his hands from his waist, squeezed out a smile, and followed the man away with his men.

  …

   "That person is the Hou Pingliang you mentioned just now?" Araki Harima and Miyazaki Kentaro clinked glasses and said.

  Just now he was standing by the window in the corridor, seeing the scene below clearly.

   "It's him." Cheng Qianfan said after taking a sip of sake.

   "It seems that you still trust this Chinese." Araki Harima said.

   "The woman he loved died at the hands of the Chongqing side." Cheng Qianfan showed a sense of complacency, "After my subtle guidance, this person hates the Chongqing side to the bone."

  Araki Harima nodded. Miyazaki once mentioned to him that this Hou Pingliang liked the little maid next to Lou Lianxiang.

   "This is a stupid guy with a single mind. If I treat him better and give him a little guidance, he will be loyal to me." Cheng Qianfan said.

   As he spoke, Cheng Qianfan put down his wine glass, picked up the cigarette case on the table, lit a cigarette and took a puff, "Imperial cigarettes are the most delicious."

  When Araki Harima saw this, he had a solemn expression and said seriously, "Thank you, Miyazaki-kun."

  In order to avoid suspicion, Miyazaki is not good at smoking imperial cigarettes.

   "Why didn't you bring Li Hao here?" Araki Harima lit a cigarette himself, took a puff, and asked.

   "Li Hao is Li Hao, and Hou Pingliang is Hou Pingliang." Cheng Qianfan smiled, "Although I don't like Chinese people very much, don't you find it interesting to train two loyal Chinese subordinates?"

  Araki Harima laughed out loud.

   "Araki-kun, you came to me so urgently, didn't you just ask me to drink and chat?" Cheng Qianfan and Araki Harima clinked glasses, took a sip of the wine, clicked his tongue in satisfaction, ate another mouthful of food, and asked.

   "There is indeed a very urgent matter." Araki Harima nodded, put down his chopsticks, and said with a serious expression.

   Seeing this, Cheng Qianfan also put down his chopsticks, with a serious attitude of listening carefully.

   "In recent days, the locust army has stepped up inspections of land transportation, docks, and checkpoints leaving Shanghai. Miyazaki-kun should have heard about it." Araki Harima asked.

   "Of course I know." Cheng Qianfan nodded and snorted, "My cargo ship was strictly inspected when it left Shanghai, and the business was also affected."

   As he spoke, seeing Araki Harima's serious expression, his face changed as well. He extinguished the cigarette in his hand, and asked in a deep voice, "Araki-kun, what happened?"

  PS: Ask for a subscription, ask for a reward, ask for a monthly pass, thank you.

   PS1: The commander is from Sichuan. I tried to 'speak' a few words in Sichuan dialect. If something is not right, my friends in Sichuan will forgive me and hope to point out the mistakes.
