November 1, 11:30 a.m., Nanjing Presidential Office.

The chairman of the committee sat in his office, holding the newspaper covering the Sixing warehouse in his hand, watching it repeatedly, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and during this time, this incident was the only thing that made him happy.

Leaving Xie Jin and others behind was originally an idle move by the chairman, in order to win sympathy at international conferences and to win the support of foreign powers for China.

However, the chairman did not expect that the support was not won, and this idle move gave him an unexpected effect.

The chairman of the committee was very slow to read the newspaper, and after reading it for a while, he came across the latest newspaper, and then his target was the section of the newspaper on the Japanese army general Matsui.

In the morning, Matsui sent a report saying that for the people in the Sixing warehouse, either surrender or use heavy fire to directly bomb the Sixing warehouse into waste.

After a while, the chairman put down the newspaper, and said with a mocking smile on the corner of his mouth, "I still want to set up a memorial arch to be a **, and I want to be beautiful!" ”

When the words fell, the chairman of the committee said to the secretary next to him, "Call and answer the highest administrative office of the British Concession, I want to talk to them." ”

"Yes!" The secretary replied and immediately picked up the phone and started operating.

A few moments later, the call was finally made to the highest administrative office in the British Concession after several transfers.

"Hello, this is the Nanjing President's Office, I am the secretary of the chairman, and I am looking for Chief Stephen, the head of the British Concession." The secretary blew himself up in English.

"Wait a minute!" The other party replied in English.

Five seconds later, Stephen's voice came over the phone, "I'm Stephen!" ”

This Stephen is the person in charge of the British Concession who sent people to fight with Zheng Long when Zheng Long was in Shanghai, along with Joseph and others.

"Wait a minute, the chairman will talk to you." The secretary replied in English and handed the phone to the chairman.

"Hello Mr. Steve, I'm xxx." The chairman of the committee politely said it in English.

"I have admired the daimyo for a long time!" Steve complimented, "I don't know if you called in person, so what?" ”

"Regarding the problem of our soldiers trapped in the warehouse of Shanghai Sixing, I would like to ask you for a favor." The chairman of the committee said in a calm voice: "I won't let you be busy in vain." ”

"You think highly of me, Mr. Chairman." Steve smiled and said, "The Japanese army general Matsui personally spoke, and he asked for the people in the Sixing warehouse, and you know, Matsui is a lawless madman, so I can't help with this favor." ”

"Listen to me." The chairman smiled and said, "I want to ask you to open the road between the British Concession and the Sixing Warehouse, so that our soldiers can borrow the road from the British Concession." ”

"I can't be the master of this matter." Steve was embarrassed and said, "In case this incident attracts retaliation from the Japanese army, I can't afford such consequences." ”

"You just do it, and I'll communicate with you about the rest." The chairman smiled and said, "My country and your country have always been good friends, this little thing, I believe that Prime Minister XX (the name of the British Prime Minister) will agree, and I will send a telegram to Prime Minister XX in a while." ”

"Mr. Chairman, I can only arrange it here, but whether to do it or not, I have to wait for the Prime Minister's telegram."

"Yes!" After the chairman nodded, the two talked for a few more words, and then hung up the phone.

"Send a telegram to the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom." After the chairman hung up the phone, he gave an explanation to the secretary.

"Good! You say. The secretary immediately walked up to the telegraph machine and looked up and asked.

"In this way, the four lines of warehouse .................."

"Let's go! Let's ......."

The chairman said that the secretary called, and an encrypted telegram was quickly sent.

In this era, there are no cross-country phone calls, so the only way to communicate between countries is to send telegrams, of course, these telegrams are processed expeditedly and will not be delayed for too long.

Half an hour later, the British telegram was replied.

Subsequently, the chairman of the committee exchanged views with the other party by telegram.

Two hours later, when the two sides finalized the details, the chairman was silent for a while, lit a cigarette, took a puff, and muttered, "I'll save your lives!" ”

A cigarette smoked, and the chairman whispered to the secretary, "Take the commander of the 88th Division, Jin Kui." ”

"Yes!" The secretary answered, picked up the phone and dialed.

At half past three in the afternoon, inside the four-line warehouse.

Xie Jin frowned and sat in the office in the warehouse, smoking a cigarette without saying a word, and after a while, he suddenly said, "Lao Li, what kind of medicine did you say was sold in the gourd of the Japanese army?" Why is it so quiet? ”

When the words fell, Xie Jin was stunned for a moment, looked at the empty office and muttered, "Forget it, you've already gone to heaven to enjoy your blessings." ”

After speaking, Xie Jin's eyes turned red.

"Tick bell bell! Tick bell bell! ”

At this moment, the phone in Xie Jin's office rang, Xie Jin wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, calmed down his mood, and then raised his hand and said, "This is the Sixing Warehouse, I am Xie Jin." ”

"I'm Jin Kui, the commander of the 88th Division!" Jin Kui's voice came from the phone.

"Hello Commander!" Xie Jin subconsciously saluted.

"These battles are well fought and fought happily." Jin Kui smiled and said, "It is worthy of Lao Tzu's soldiers, and I didn't embarrass our 88th Division." ”

"Thank you for the compliment!" Xie Jin asked, "Do you have any new orders for calling?" ”

"Yes!" Jin Kui was silent for a moment and said, "Lead the brothers to retreat, your task is complete, and it is very good." ”

"Retreat?" Xie Jinleng paused for a moment and asked, "Is there a brother who has come to answer?" ”

Jin Kui was silent when he heard this.

After a while, Jin Kui said, "No one answered, you withdrew from the British Concession, the superiors and the British Concession greeted, and after many discussions, the British Concession agreed, but there was a request." ”

"What a request." Xie Jin asked in a deep voice.

"When you get to the British Concession, you must give up your weapons!" Jin Kui replied softly.

Xie Jin was silent for a moment, then said softly and firmly, "I don't agree!" ”

After saying this, Xie Jin hesitated for a moment and asked, "Commander, is the international conference over?" ”

Jin Kui listened to Xie Jin's words and knew that the head of his regiment had already guessed the fundamental purpose of their stay in Shanghai, which made Jin Kui feel very guilty.

"Well, it's over!" Jin Kui replied in a deep voice.

"Commander, you tell me the truth, we didn't survive when we entered the British Concession?" Xie Jin paused after speaking, and said, "Or is this another transaction, a compromise?" ”

"I can live!" Jin Kui said in a hoarse voice: "But I can't go back to the 88th Division." ”

"And where are we going?" Xie Jin asked.

"Imprisoned in the British Concession until the end of the war." Jin Kui said with difficulty: "This is the best result of the struggle." ”

"Huh!" Xie Jin suddenly laughed, and his smile was a little desolate: "Am I afraid of death?" Are the brothers afraid of death? ”

"Don't be afraid!" Jin Kui persuaded, "But it's better to be alive than dead." ”

"Will the Japanese army allow us to enter the British Concession?" Xie Jin asked again.

"The Japanese are also on the terms of the negotiations, and they agree." Kim Kui replied.

"Haha, that's so sad." Xie Jin sneered, "Just because of the battle in the Four Elements Warehouse in the past few days, we people have been accepted by the masses, so we can't die, can we?" ”

"I want to protect us, but I don't want to pay the price, and I want to look good, so I made an agreement with the Japanese army to imprison us forever in the British Concession, right?"

Jin Kui was silent when he heard this.

"I'll think about it and call you back." Xie Jin threw down a sentence and hung up the phone directly.

Then, Xie Jin stood by the window with his hands behind his back, looking at the space outside, speechless for a long time.

At this moment, he is full of confusion!

At about half past four in the afternoon, the Japanese army sent another report, saying to the outside world that no matter where Xie Jin and the others fled, the Japanese army would appear wherever they fled, and they would never give up until they were killed.

This is the result of the upper-level game, and all three parties come down.

At the same time, a dusty man, who traveled thousands of kilometers, finally stepped into the boundaries of Shanghai again.
