Chapter 13: The Meaning Behind the Scenes of the Conflict
When Tang Cheng and the others arrived at the labor camp, a platoon of soldiers deployed by the garrison regiment on the farm had already gathered in the open space outside the small building. Tang Cheng and Zhang Jianghe, who entered from the back door of the small building, soon appeared behind the window of a room on the second floor, each holding a telescope to observe the confrontation outside the small building. Confronting the soldiers of the garrison regiment were more than a dozen sturdy men in civilian clothes, led by a pockmarked face, Tang Cheng and Zhang Jianghe saw this person, and the pockmarked face was arrogant and scolded.
"This pockmarked face is definitely not a military commander!" Zhang Jianghe, who was standing behind the curtain, held a telescope in his hand, and could clearly see the two groups of people negotiating outside the window. Tang Cheng stood beside Zhang Jianghe, also holding a telescope in his hand, as for whether the group of people outside the window was a military commander or not, Tang Cheng actually didn't care at all in his heart, because he already knew that these guys who came to find trouble were all from the Central Union.
"If it's not a military commander, then it should be a person from the Central Command, I heard that the director of the Central Command in Chongqing has changed again, and this time it's still a woman." When Tang Cheng is telling lies now, he can already keep his face unchanged, even in the face of Zhang Jianghe, he can easily control his expression. Zhang Jianghe also knew about the change of director at the Chongqing site of Zhongtong, but he didn't know that the new director was still a woman.
"The people of the middle order?" Zhang Jianghe subconsciously frowned when he heard this, although Zhongtong also has a station in Chongqing City, but since he came to Chongqing, he has not heard of anything happening in Chongqing. "Are you sure that these people out there are Zhongtong people?" Zhang Jianghe's voice revealed a little doubt, his reaction was not to doubt Tang Cheng, but he didn't believe when Zhongtong had so many people in Chongqing.
"After the garrison group had trouble with these people last time, they arranged for someone to secretly inquire about the news of the Bai Mansion! The brand of the military commander is hard enough, but we also have to share the benefits to give them these local snakes, who were found to come to the door and tossed, how could these guys endure it. The news was told to me by the garrison regiment, and it is said that these guys from the Central Command have been in charge of the White Mansion, and it is obvious that the White Mansion has been used by the Central Command to hold secret prisoners. Tang Cheng's voice was very clear, and Zhang Jianghe also heard it clearly, but when Tang Cheng talked about secretly detaining prisoners, Zhang Jianghe's heart suddenly jumped wildly.
During the period when Tang Cheng was not in Chongqing, Zhang Jianghe had lost the channel to contact the underground party organization in Chongqing, but Zhang Jianghe knew all about the several arrests in the city by the Central Unification Station. The members of the underground party organization who were arrested by the Central Committee all disappeared strangely, and Zhang Jianghe tried his best to inquire about the whereabouts of these people, but he did not receive the slightest news.
At this moment, Tang Cheng's words could be regarded as reminding Zhang Jianghe, and an idea suddenly rose in his mind, could it be that those underground party members who were arrested by the Central Union were imprisoned in the White Mansion? Zhang Jianghe held the telescope silently, but in fact, he secretly calculated in his heart, if it wasn't for the Central Command to hide those people, how could he not have received any news? Maybe this White Mansion is the secret prison of the Central Union in Chongqing!
Tang Cheng, who was standing beside Zhang Jianghe, secretly paid attention to Zhang Jianghe's reaction while talking, and when he saw Zhang Jianghe's brows tightly locked, Tang Cheng secretly laughed in his heart, and said that he had finally passed the news to Zhang Jianghe. Tang Cheng did not have an exact number of how many underground party members were imprisoned in the Bai Mansion, but what he could be sure of was that the White Mansion was indeed used by the Central Committee to imprison prisoners, and many of them were members of the underground party.
"Uncle, we don't need to go out, those guys are here to make trouble, I think most of them are here to rip off bamboo. The garrison regiment is not given in vain, if you don't believe it and look at it, you will have to fight in a while! Tang Cheng, who saw that Zhang Jianghe had some intentions, hurriedly spoke out to dissuade him, and it was definitely not a good thing for Zhang Jianghe to participate in this farce at this time. When the two talked in a low voice, the situation outside the small building had changed, and a large number of soldiers of the garrison regiment rushed to the scene with live ammunition, and a brawl began.
"Adjutant Ma, what the hell is going on? Didn't you say that the other party had a warrant from the state government? Why is this still fighting? Tang Cheng and Zhang Jianghe stayed in the small building, waiting for the brawl to end, and Tang Cheng came out of the small building in a leisurely manner. The dozen or so people in the central command were beaten very lightly, but fortunately, the people in the garrison regiment did not dare to really want to make a big deal about it, and they did not really do anything. Adjutant Ma, who was questioned by Tang Cheng, smiled and pulled Tang Cheng aside, how could he, who had dealt with Tang Cheng many times, not understand the meaning of Tang Cheng's words just now.
"Young Master Tang, don't play meditation with my little character!" Adjutant Ma first took out a cigarette and handed it to Tang Cheng, and then explained to Tang Cheng in a low voice. "These guys are dizzy, and they came to us to fight the autumn wind, but they are not looking for death! At the moment, there is a lot of tension everywhere, and there are more than a thousand mouths up and down the garrison regiment, and now they are pointing to this farm to live! It's not easy to live a good life without starving, and who wants to eat bran pickles again, you just pretend that you don't see anything! ”
Adjutant Ma's words actually represented the meaning of those officers of the garrison regiment, Tang Cheng just nodded when he heard this, but he didn't think so in his heart. "Alright, I know what you mean! There's no problem on my side, and I'll talk about it over there. But I also want to remind you a few words, the expansion of the farm is a good thing, the expansion of the farm, everyone's income will increase, but the expansion must also have a specific plan, don't cause unnecessary trouble! ”
"That's natural!" Seeing that Tang Cheng had already clearly expressed his attitude, Adjutant Ma nodded with a smile. "We are also people who do the right thing now, but if we have a good life, who would be happy to fight with people in the sky." When he said this, Adjutant Ma deliberately lowered his voice again and said to Tang Cheng. "These people in the Bai Mansion are not easy to mess with, if it weren't for the big people to support us this time, the head of the regiment would not have given an order, and they really made trouble with these guys."
This Adjutant Ma has said so much, and there is only this last sentence, which can be regarded as a bit useful. When Tang Cheng heard this, he smiled and patted Adjutant Ma's shoulder, then turned around and returned to the small building, repeating Adjutant Ma's words just now to Zhang Jianghe. "Uncle, it seems that it is a foregone conclusion that the national government will go south to Chongqing, and the fight just now should be a sign of a certain big man wrestling with the top one, I guess this big man should be in the Sichuan lineage." Tang Cheng would say this, it was entirely because of Adjutant Ma's hint just now, but Zhang Jianghe misunderstood Tang Cheng's meaning.
When Zhang Jianghe heard this, he immediately put down the telescope and wrote a word Wang on the windowsill with his finger, Tang Cheng was only slightly stunned when he saw this, and immediately shook his head, indicating that the person he suspected was not Wang Zhanxu, who was the chairman of Sichuan Province at the time. Although Wang Zhanxu is also from Sichuan, he joined the Fuxing Society in his early years, and he is no longer from the Sichuan family in the traditional sense. Tang Cheng's reaction made Zhang Jianghe also puzzled, but he reacted immediately.
After Liu Xiang's death, the government originally appointed Zhang Qun to take over the post of chairman of Sichuan Province, but Zhang Qun was delayed in taking office, and the Sichuan generals have been opposed, so the government reappointed Wang Zhanxu as the chairman of Sichuan Province. Wang Zhanxu had secretly joined the Fuxing Society in his early years, and this secret was spread after he was appointed chairman of Sichuan Province, so many Sichuan generals have always opposed Wang Zhanxu to become the chairman of Sichuan Province.
When Wang Zhanxu is mentioned, one can't help but think of those Sichuan generals who have always opposed Wang Zhanxu, including many members of the Liu family. By the time Zhang Jianghe figured this out, Tang Cheng had already reached out and wrote the word Liu on the windowsill, "Even if it is emaciated, a camel is still bigger than a cow, not to mention that the Liu family has been running Sichuan for many years!" After Liu Xiang, the Liu family may not have outstanding leaders, but the Liu family will not be completely defeated in just a few years. Tang Cheng's voice sounded very calm at the moment, and Zhang Jianghe immediately fell into deep thought when he heard this.
"Uncle, whether it's the one above or their Liu family, it's not something that a little person like us can afford to mess with! So if you want me to say, let's just wait quietly and watch the show, don't blindly participate in these messy things! Tang Cheng, who grinned, looked at the harmless appearance of humans and animals, Zhang Jianghe glanced up at Tang Cheng, but secretly snorted coldly in his heart, saying that Tang Cheng was a little fox at all.
What Zhang Jianghe thought in his heart, Tang Cheng didn't know at the moment, and it was impossible for him to use system skills on Zhang Jianghe. The commotion outside the small building ended quickly, and the troublemakers who were beaten were sent away by Adjutant Ma, as for what would happen later, Tang Cheng didn't care at all. On the way back to the city, Zhang Jianghe was puzzled, Tang Cheng dragged himself to the farm outside the city early in the morning, could it be just to see the excitement?
Of course, Tang Cheng, who was concentrating on driving, didn't just take Zhang Jianghe to the farm to see the excitement, he just wanted to take this opportunity to make Zhang Jianghe pay attention to the Bai Mansion. Although Zhang Jianghe did not contact the Chongqing underground party organization during this time, this does not mean that he will not contact the Chongqing underground party organization in the future. As long as Zhang Jianghe contacts the Chongqing underground party, the Bai Mansion will enter the sight of the Chongqing underground party, which is the purpose of Tang Cheng.
Tang Cheng was not ready to investigate the Bai Mansion now, and even if he was ready, he still needed someone to help him divert the attention of the Central Commander. At this stage, in Chongqing City, the only one that can help Tang Cheng is the Chongqing underground party organization. However, Tang Cheng didn't know whether his trick of spreading the news through Zhang Jianghe had any effect.
