"Head Xie, let's break up here."

The car stopped, Meng Shaoyuan lit a cigarette, and then took out a suitcase from the trunk and handed it to Xie Jinyuan: "There are six hundred taels of gold in it, which is the property of a big traitor named Ji Yunqing." Manager Xu will send you to the ship in Hong Kong, and after you arrive in Hong Kong, don't stay long, go to the United States. ”

"You want me to take off my uniform?"

Xie Jinyuan understood at once.

"Yes, Captain Xie." Meng Shaoyuan said in a heavy tone: "Your rescue involves too many people and things. Another point is that you are a hero of the party-state, but you have met many important figures of the Workers' and Peasants' Party in the lonely military camp, and the Workers' and Peasants' Party has spoken highly of you, and even erected you as a model of heroes of the Anti-Japanese War in the national army. If you are imprisoned for the rest of your life or even die, you will always be the common hero of the Kuomintang and the Workers' and Peasants' Party, but once you are released, ......"

Xie Jinyuan showed a trace of sadness on his face.

Once the heroes were released, they faced unimaginable ......

"Let's go, Captain Xie." Meng Shaoyuan took a few puffs of cigarette hard: "In this world, there are some things that we can control, and some things that we can't control at all. Are you unwilling? But I have to endure it if I am unwilling. If you die, the concession and the Japanese will relax their guards on the lonely barracks, and your brethren will have a better chance of being saved. ”

"I'm dead?"

"The Japanese have wanted to get rid of you for a long time, and you know it in your own heart."

"And what about the brother who replaced me?"

Meng Shaoyuan did not speak.

But the meaning is very clear.

"Let's go, Captain Xie." Meng Shaoyuan threw away the cigarette: "From now on, your name is Luo Guoxiang." Once you take this step, there's no going back. ”

"Thank you, Mr. Meng!"

Although Xie Jinyuan did not wear a military uniform, he still saluted a military salute in a dignified manner.

Meng Shaoyuan returned a salute: "Take care, Head Xie!" ”

Xie Jinyuan smiled sadly: "You forgot, my name is Luo Guoxiang now!" ”

……

At 5 o'clock in the morning on April 24, 1941, Xie Jinyuan was assassinated by the traitor Private Hao Dingcheng and others bought by the Japanese in the lone army at the age of 37.

The officers and men of the battalion wept bitterly.

When Shangguan Zhibiao stepped forward to capture the murderer, he was also stabbed.

After that, Shangguan Zhibiao was successfully rescued in the hospital.

When he got the news of Xie Jinyuan's death, he was not sad, but was silent for a long time.

Then, in a low voice, he muttered:

"Thank you, Mr. Meng!"

……

In 1942, Xie Jinyuan's family went to the United States......

……

"This time, it's good."

Dai Li's words were still full of praise: "You let Li Shiqun beat the Japanese, and you also knocked out the Takamatsu group, I cooperate with you, and it is worth it to be your bait?" ”

"Thank you, Mr. Dai. As long as it's planned, everything will fall into place. ”

"You don't brag to me." Dai Li smiled and suddenly asked, "What about Xie Jinyuan?" ”

"Xie Jinyuan?" Meng Shaoyuan was stunned: "In the lonely military camp." ”

"Still in the lonely barracks?"

"Yes, it's still there, I'm afraid it's not easy for Mr. Dai to see him, it's too dangerous."

"You, what the hell are you guts doing?" Dai Li said slowly: "You chose the location of your action on Jiaozhou Road, and the nearby Xingjiapo Road is a lonely military camp, you really don't have any ideas about Xie Jinyuan?" ”

"No, absolutely not!" Meng Shaoyuan stood upright: "I also want to save Captain Xie, but the foreigners are very tightly guarded, and there is no chance at all!" ”

"No, no." Dai Li smiled: "Shaoyuan, I don't think it's an exaggeration to comment on you with the four words of courage and resourcefulness." What about you, there are a lot of flowers and intestines, and there are some secrets, and it is best to rot in the stomach for the rest of your life! ”

"Understood!"

No secret can really be hidden forever.

Dai Li had already guessed what was going on.

But he didn't say it.

He also has his difficulties.

The successful rescue of Xie Jinyuan is indeed the credit of the military commander.

But the problem is that some of the credit is not only not meritorious, but it may also cause trouble.

Xie Jinyuan is a hero, but this person is too sensitive.

The military commanders have drawn up several rescue plans, but none of them have been implemented.

There was no one up there to urge.

Locked up in a lonely military camp, Xie Jinyuan is the spiritual totem of the nation.

If he comes out......

Let's pretend to be confused, let's pretend to be confused together.

It's hard to get confused.

Dai Li no longer asked about it: "Shao Yuan, this time Ying Zuo Zhenzhao has suffered another big loss, I'm afraid you have to beware of their stormy revenge." ”

"Shao Yuan understands." Meng Shaoyuan said: "At present, I am not afraid, although the influence of the Japanese on the public concession is greater day by day, after all, they cannot do whatever they want. What worries me is what will happen after the fall of the Public Concession. ”

"What did you say?" Dai Li was stunned for a moment: "You say that the Japanese dare to occupy the public concession?" ”

"Sooner or later." Meng Shaoyuan said with certainty that he sorted out the situation in Europe and the world, and tried not to shock the world to express his views.

"Alarmist."

Dai Li was still skeptical: "What are you going to do if the situation you said arises?" ”

"I'm already arranging for the worst." Meng Shaoyuan immediately replied: "The city of Shanghai is too important, even if the Japanese occupy the public concession, it is nothing more than to restore the name of Shanghai Hidden Area." It's just that my life in the future will not be so easy. ”

"Oh, after the fall of the Public Concession, are you still going to stay in Shanghai?" Dai Li really didn't think of it: "You rely on the Public Concession and the Ministry of Industry Bureau as the backing now, and you can advance and retreat freely, what about the future?" You are the sworn enemy of the Japanese Special Organization, the sworn enemy of Li Shiqun, if the time comes, if you fall into their hands......"

"Mr. Dai, no matter what, I am the mayor of Shanghai." Meng Shaoyuan smiled and said: "I can't live a good life, and when the hard days come, I will throw away the brothers?" Mr. Dai, let me say a big thing, no one in the entire military command knows Shanghai better than me. When I am extravagant and corrupt, I will run away first when the storm comes, and no matter who Mr. Dai arranges to take my place in the future, there will be gossip that is unfavorable to Mr. Dai. ”

Dai Li suddenly felt a little moved.

This little bastard is bold and lawless, and he dares to do anything out of the ordinary, but he is really loyal to the organization and to himself.

Ability can be lacking, but loyalty must not be missing!

It's not in vain that I treat him like that.

"Mr. Dai."

Meng Shaoyuan raised his voice slightly: "In order to ensure that I continue to persist in the struggle behind enemy lines in the most difficult times, I need greater rights. ”

"What rights do you need, you say?"

"I need organizations that can directly mobilize Jiangsu and other places!"

"I can't give you this right." Dai Li pondered for a moment and said: "After all, there are local leaders everywhere, but I can give you another right, in this extraordinary period, you have the right to use local resources without consulting with local leaders!" ”
