Chapter 40: The Demons Dance
As soon as Zheng Yi returned to his office, a call from his boss Yu Feipeng arrived, and after Zheng Yi answered the call, he immediately ordered a gathering and announced a series of orders to the forty-six brothers under his command in a solemn tone that he had never heard before.

Three hours later, five sedans and four wagons loaded with gendarmes from the headquarters entered the Dongjiao Field, passed through the Yuanmen, bypassed the Dianjiangtai, and drove directly into the heavily guarded Ordnance Section.
Before the commanders in the sedan could open the door, the heavily armed gendarmes in the van had already jumped out of the car, dragged more than a dozen criminals out of the car, and stood neatly waiting for orders.
Zheng Yi, chief of the ordnance section, stood alone in front of the side of a car, stood up and saluted, and looked in astonishment at President Jiang, General Adviser Borodin, He Yingqin, commander of the First Division, Wang Boling, commander of the Second Division, Director Zhou of the Political Department, his immediate boss Yu Feipeng, and his uncle Zhou Junyan, and more than ten generals got out of the car after taking the lead.
Principal Jiang, who was wearing white gloves and had a well-groomed military appearance, looked around, nodded silently, and returned a salute in front of Zheng Yi surrounded by all the generals: "Ready?" β
"Report to the principal, everything is ready according to the order." Zheng Yi replied loudly.
Principal Jiang said to Director Zhou: "Xiangyu, I'll trouble you, the chief military judge, next." β
Director Zhou solemnly stepped forward to ask Zheng Yi a few words, under the guidance of Zheng Yi, walked quickly to the inside of the playground, carefully inspected the two rows of neat and wide weapons warehouses, and saw that in front of each warehouse there were two heavily armed soldiers with worried expressions standing guard, and the empty warehouse had already placed the tables and chairs, hot water bottles and teacups for interrogation, praised Zheng Yi with satisfaction, made a gesture to the two military police captains who followed, pulled Zheng Yi to the big tree in front of the warehouse, and calmly looked at Zheng Yi and explained in a low voice:
"The background of Mr. Liao's assassination is very complicated, the impact is very bad, and today's arrest of more than ten prisoners for trial is just the beginning, and I, the director of the Political Department and the judge of the General Army, am afraid that I will have to live with you for a while."
Zheng Yi hurriedly said: "The two barracks and three independent bedrooms have been sorted out, the materials are complete, the telephone is unblocked, and the security plan has also been formulated, but the subordinates are understaffed here, so they can only do some miscellaneous things." β
Director Zhou looked at Principal Jiang and the others who were inspecting various facilities in the distance: "It's okay, the gendarmerie company will soon take over the security of the entire courtyard, and the interrogation work will be handled by the urgently formed joint investigation team, you only need to provide three meals a day and tea." β
"You've done a good job of preparation, this courtyard is quiet, well-equipped, better than I expected, and I can see that you have put a lot of effort into it."
Zheng Yi silently bowed his head, pondered for a moment, and asked in a low voice, "What is the reaction of the Yue army?" β
Director Zhou was deeply surprised by Zheng Yi's keen political sense, and couldn't help but ask Zheng Yi curiously: "Why do you have such a question?" β
Zheng Yi sighed: "As early as a month ago, Chen Jiongming took advantage of the chaotic situation of the Shaji tragedy and the general strike in Hong Kong and reoccupied most of the eastern part of Guangdong. β
"On the other hand, on the other hand, on the other hand, our Nationalist Government and the military and political leaders are intriguing over who should be the commander-in-chief of the Second Eastern Crusade, and they finally elected General Xu Chongzhi as the commander-in-chief of the Second Eastern Crusade half a month ago, and allocated a one-million military expenses to General Xu at one time, but so far I have not seen the slightest sign of General Xu and the 30,000 Cantonese troops under his command of the Eastern Crusade, but on the contrary, an assassination case with despicable means and bad influence occurred this morning."
"The death of Mr. Liao will not only be a huge loss to the entire revolutionary camp, but the situation in the entire province and Hong Kong will also be in great chaos, and the contradictions between the major forces in the camp of our revolutionary army, who are in the same bed and have different dreams, will also rapidly intensify and fall into a political struggle of mutual suspicion and deceit, and I am afraid that the only one who will benefit is the Kuomintang rightists, who control the majority of the strength of the Guangdong army."
Director Zhou was shocked after hearing Zheng Yi's words, and couldn't help but be impressed by Zheng Yi's keen political insight, and he didn't know how to respond after being silent for a long time, until Yu Feipeng beckoned from a distance and came back to his senses, patted Zheng Yi's arm and signaled him to hurry over.
Zheng Yi trotted to Yu Feipeng's side, and immediately followed Yu Feipeng to the office after a few words, He Yingqin, Wang Boling and other generals were still looking around in the courtyard, praising the flat cement playground and various facilities, and only Principal Jiang, Borodin and their relatives were drinking tea and talking in the office.
Principal Jiang motioned for Yu Feipeng to sit down and drink tea, and rarely smiled at Zheng Yi, who was saluting: "You have a good place, it looks inconspicuous from the outside, and when you come in, you have a lot of effort, right?" β
"Principal, this courtyard is the same as the munitions compound next door, the foundation is already very good, and the subordinates just paved the playground with cement, rebuilt a row of houses, and built a toilet, without much effort." Zheng Yi replied cautiously.
Principal Jiang seemed to appreciate it: "It's already quite good, I'm very satisfied after reading it, Brother Qiao Feng, you come to tell your general." β
Yu Feipeng hurriedly put down the teacup: "Five days later, the second batch of weapons and equipment supported by Mr. Borodin and them will arrive, this batch of equipment is large in number and varied, except for footwear and equipment, all weapons and equipment, including artillery, are all received by you, is there any difficulty?" β
Zheng Yi raised his head and held his chest high: "My subordinates will go all out to ensure that the task is completed!" β
"Don't be nervous, speak slowly."
Principal Jiang's words elicited a chuckle.
General Borodin said cordially: "Just now we hurriedly made a round around, and found that your environment here is very beautiful, cleaner and tidier than any military camp I have visited, and we also saw your three newly built fire pools, as well as the eye-catching management regulations and fire and moisture-proof signs on the outer wall of the arsenal, all of which are in accordance with the requirements and specifications, except that the area near the north courtyard wall seems to have hidden dangers, have you noticed?" β
Zheng Yi was quite surprised, and admired Borodin's meticulous observation very much: "Report to the general, the potential safety hazards of the northern courtyard wall have been discovered as early as when we were stationed, and we have submitted a written report to the First Division, which is responsible for the security and protection of the entire camp. β
"Originally, we had always wanted to buy a few dogs to come back and help with the housekeeping, but we were worried that the brothers who were hungry and had green eyes to cook them, so we hesitated."
After everyone was stunned, they couldn't help laughing, Borodin's face was full of puzzlement, and he couldn't help laughing out loud after listening to the interpreter's explanation.
The laughter continued, Director Zhou, who had arranged the interrogation work, strode in to report to Principal Jiang, everyone discussed a few words, and then rushed to the base camp in the city.
Yu Feipeng took a cup of new tea from Zheng Yi, motioned for Zheng Yi to sit down and speak: "You have done a good job here, I didn't expect you to formulate strict management regulations and write them on the wall, walking in front of all armies like never before, which is refreshing and beneficial, and even the Russian advisers who have always been picky are full of praise, which adds glory to my face!" β
"Go back and write a written report on these regulations and various measures and give them to me, and I plan to spread them throughout the Quartermaster Department."
Zheng Yi agreed: "These are the most basic work requirements, there are ready-made, just in the drawer on your left, you can take it." β
Yu Feipeng opened the drawer on the left, took out a few neatly written manuscripts, looked at them carefully, and nodded again and again: "Very good, I took it away, if there are any other requests, I will try my best to do it for you." β
Zheng Yi thought for a while: "I don't have a deputy section chief here, I can't take a single step if I want to, Uncle Shi, can you send someone over to me as soon as possible?" β
Yu Feipeng thought for a moment: "The Ordnance Department is very important, just like the audit department in charge of your Brother Zhou Shi, you can't let outsiders infiltrate, and now I don't have any suitable candidates in my hands, so let's wait for this while, I will pick someone from the graduating Zhejiang students to send over." β
Zheng Yi took the opportunity to put forward his difficulties: "That's good, and then there are only forty-seven people in our ordnance department and me, of which five excellent soldiers who can write and calculate are temporarily acting custodians, and the rest of the brothers are not only responsible for the safety and security of the entire camp, but also responsible for the handling and escorting of weapons and equipment, and they have to take turns on duty and patrol 24 hours a day. β
Yu Feipeng nodded frequently: "I have already considered this issue with President Jiang and others, and according to the current situation, after dealing with this assassination incident, we will launch a second eastern crusade, and after the unification of Guangdong, we will definitely wave the Northern Expedition, so the next task of our quartermaster department is very heavy." β
"With the rapid expansion of the army, we also need to form a security force directly under the quartermaster department, so as not to drag down the main forces...... The reason why you asked you to bring over more than 40 soldiers from the military academy is because of this consideration, but this matter cannot be rushed, we have to come step by step, and wait for the headquarters to determine the establishment for us. β
Zheng Yi nodded and said no more, Yu Feipeng put the manuscript into his briefcase, handed it to Adjutant Xu, walked out of the office accompanied by Zheng Yi, and whispered before getting into the car:
"In the past few days, you only need to ensure that the investigation team and the gendarmerie have three meals a day, and don't get involved in security, interrogation, detention, and other matters, this assassination incident is very complicated, the situation is very serious, I'm afraid I don't have time to come to you, if there is anything to call."
"Those people in the Cantonese army...... Will it threaten the safety of the principal? Zheng Yi asked in a low voice.
Yu Feipeng sighed faintly: "Just finish listening, don't spread it, after this morning's assassination, Mr. Liao's guards caught one of the seriously injured murderers, and he is currently being detained in the hospital, interrogating while treating, and the murderer can't survive and finally recruits the mastermind Hu Yisheng." β
Zheng Yi was taken aback: "Isn't Hu Yisheng Hu Hanmin's younger brother?" β
Yu Feipeng nodded: "Hu Hanmin is absolutely inseparable, not only Hu Hanmin, but also the arrogant generals of the Guangdong Army, who have always been xenophobic, and a few people from the Xishan Conference faction, but fortunately, the principal was decisive in his killing, quickly united with Wang Jingwei's faction, and obtained the full support of the Russian advisory group, the leftist forces in the party and the Communist Party. β
"I'm afraid there will be fierce clashes in the next few days, you are here to be the key to this incident, and you must not make any mistakes!"
Zheng Yi was awe-inspiring in his heart: "Uncle Shi, don't worry, I won't go anywhere, I'm here twenty-four hours a day!" β
