Du Yuesheng, born in 88, Chuansha, Jiangsu (now Pudong, Shanghai), established Sanxin Company in July 25, he was engaged in the opium transportation industry, monopolized the opium in the French Concession, and made a fortune, founded Zhonghui Bank in 29 years, and served as the director of the public board of directors in the same year, the director of the public board of directors is the highest position of the Chinese in the concession, and he is also the boss of the Shanghai underground gang Qinggang, there are people with guns in his hands, it can be said that Du Yuesheng is powerful in Shanghai, a real generation of heroes.

Du Yuesheng stood on the stairs, glanced down at Lu Zizheng, and said calmly, "Little friend, why did you forcibly break into my Sanxin company?" ”

Lu Zizheng also looked at Du Yuesheng and said, "The junior has admired Mr. Du for a long time, and he returned to Shanghai today to visit, but he was insulted by the roadblock dog downstairs, and he was forced to teach Mr. Du a lesson, which is really disrespectful!" ”

Who is Du Yuesheng? To put it bluntly, if the troops don't come, Du Yuesheng is the most important figure in Shanghai, such a character was damaged by Lu Zizheng openly and secretly, how can he not be angry?

However, Du Yuesheng really didn't get angry, he glanced at Lu Zizheng and smiled, "Heroic boy, Shanghai Tang is really full of talents!" ”

"Xiaoyou is a soldier?" Du Yuesheng asked with a deep groan.

This sentence hides a murderous intention, the reason why Du Yuesheng is not angry is that he can't grasp Lu Zizheng's way of coming from clearly, if he accidentally kicks on the iron plate, he Du Yuesheng may not be able to bear it, so he has this question, if he is not a soldier, Du Yuesheng will not care.

"Just returned from Tianjin!" Lu Zizheng replied softly.

As soon as this sentence came out, Du Yuesheng knew in his heart, the Pingjin Battle had just been fought, and at this time, who could be the person who went from Tianjin to Shanghai and was so skillful?

"So what?" Du Yuesheng thought for a while and continued to ask.

Lu Zizheng looked directly at Du Yuesheng and said directly: "I heard that Mr. Du is a complete patriot, and I came here to ask for help." ”

Du Yuesheng smiled, put on a posture of please, and said, "Little friend, upstairs?" ”

Lu Zizheng nodded, and walked upstairs with a steady pace, Du Yuesheng looked at Lu Zizheng, and there was a hint of appreciation in his eyes.

Five minutes later, Lu Zizheng and Du Yuesheng sat opposite each other, and after Du Yuesheng personally poured a cup of tea for Lu Zizheng, he asked with a smile, "Xiaoyou is from that unit?" ”

Lu Zizheng picked up the tea, took a sip of it, raised his eyebrows, and asked, "Mr. Du, do you want to see the troops?" Non-Central Army does not help? ”

Du Yuesheng paused for a moment and said, "Tell me, what do you want?"

"300 rifles, 10 boxes of grenades, and the more ships, the better." Lu Zizheng did not hesitate, opened his mouth and said directly.

Du Yuesheng thought for a while and said, "I can give you these supplies, but I need to ask more, I can understand if I want a gun, but what do you want a ship for?" ”

"Mr. Du thinks that if the Shanghai War starts, where will the most difficult point for the Japanese army to overcome?" Lu Zizheng didn't reply, but asked rhetorically.

Du Yuesheng thought for a moment and said tentatively: "Japanese warships? ”

Lu Zizheng nodded softly and said, "The Japanese military strength at sea is too strong, and our side must strike first and seize the opportunity to have a chance to win the war." ”

Du Yuesheng said incredulously: "You use a steamer to hit a warship? That's a bit whimsical, right? ”

Lu Zizheng smiled: "How do you know if you can't do it if you don't try?"

Du Yuesheng frowned and thought for a long time, but still felt that there was no chance of victory, and the appreciation for Lu Zizheng in his eyes slowly faded, and he had no interest in talking to Lu Zizheng.

"I'll have people prepare these things, when do you want them?"

"The sooner the better, no later than tomorrow afternoon."

"Where?"

"Hsinchu Street, the Lu family's compound!" Lu Zizheng opened his mouth and said, "Mr. Du's business, the ship should have a special parking area, right?" ”

"Someone will deliver the gun to you tomorrow morning." Du Yuesheng replied directly, "The boat is at the wharf on the west side of the Huangpu River, and I will say hello." ”

"My name is Lu Zizheng." Lu Zizheng saw that the matter was confirmed and reported his name.

"Du remembered." Du Yuesheng nodded.

"Thanks for the help." Lu Zizheng thanked him and got up to leave.

Two hours later, Lu Zizheng returned to the Lu family compound on Hsinchu Street, the Lu family compound is Lu Zizheng's father's real estate in Shanghai, his eldest brother Lu Ziming is in the army, he just came back from studying abroad, his parents live in Suzhou, so no one has lived in Suzhou for many years, and the house of more than 300 square meters has been standing here for several years uninhabited, resulting in a layer of dust falling from all the rooms, and the huge yard is also covered with weeds.

But now there are 100 people standing in the courtyard, their faces have solemn expressions, and they are of different ages, the oldest is in his forties, and the youngest is only twenty years old, Lu Zizheng is now at the front of the crowd, and his expression is also solemn.

This group of people is the refugees collected by Lu Zizheng along the way, they are also refugees who were persecuted by little devils, and innocent refugees who were injured in the battle in Tianjin, it was Lu Zizheng who brought them to Shanghai, gave them food and clothing, and kept them all the time, Lu Zizheng's purpose is very simple, that is, to train them to fight devils.

This group of refugees is also willing to listen to Lu Zizheng, they all hate the Japanese, if it weren't for Lu Zizheng, they might have died under the bayonets of the little devils, even if they didn't die, they didn't know when they would starve to death on the streets.

As for Lu Zizheng, after graduating from West Point College, he did not join the army, he knew that there were many factions in the army now, and he joined the army, whether he could be a commander or not, Lu Ziming persuaded him to stay in his battalion headquarters, but Lu Zizheng refused, Lu Zizheng wanted to serve the country in his own way, and he wanted to cultivate a force that could fight well.

And the troops who can fight well must not be afraid of death, and must be full of hatred for the Japanese, so after Lu Zizheng finished the Tianjin Campaign, he has been looking for these people, and finally he collected one hundred and twelve people, Lu Zizheng believes that these people are the most powerful soldiers after training.

Money, Lu Zizheng is not lacking, he has it at home, his friends also have it, and he lacks weapons, so he went to find Du Yuesheng, and now everything is ready, Lu Zizheng is going to have his pre-war meeting.

"Tomorrow, we are going to do one thing, a family to protect the family and defend the country, that is, to fight devils, are you afraid?" Lu Zizheng looked at the crowd below and asked in a deep voice.

"Don't be afraid!" A middle-aged man in his thirties was full of hatred and said, "My parents, relatives, my daughter and wife, all died in the Japanese fire, I lived to take revenge, and now every second I live is torment for me, if I didn't have the opportunity to fight devils, I would have committed suicide long ago, so, death for me, I am not afraid at all, I am living now is life is better than death." ”

"I'm not afraid!"

"I'm not afraid!"

“………………”

The crowd below spoke one by one, the eyes of these people were full of pain and depression, and they were all carefully selected by Lu Zizheng, and there was no mischief!

"There may be people who die, or maybe all of us will die, so tonight everyone eats and sleeps well, and tomorrow night, let's go fight devils together." After Lu Zizheng finished speaking, he waved his hand and said, "Eat, you are full, and there is also wine, everyone drink openly." ”

When the words fell, Lu Zizheng turned around and motioned for everyone to go to dinner, and the crowd walked towards the room in twos and threes.

Lu Zizheng stood outside the door and lowered his head and lit a cigarette, looking at the group of lifeless people in front of him, his eyes moved slightly, the wine and food were bought by Lu Zizheng, and the money was asked for by his friends, he knew that his tactics might not succeed in the face of absolute power, and someone would definitely die, but he still had to give it a try.

After a full meal, the group of refugees, one by one, either sat in the courtyard looking at the sky, or sat in the room with their eyes blank and talking to themselves, and gradually, one of them cried in a low voice, and this atmosphere seemed to infect the others, causing everyone to cry in a low voice.

They are homesick, but they don't have a home!

Lu Zizheng looked at this scene, his face was expressionless, but his eyes were red.

Little devil, you will be expelled from China, and everyone will have a peaceful and prosperous world!
