594, Warehouse No. 9
Time flashed, and soon came to the beginning of November 1937.
During this time, China and Japan continued to fight fiercely around Huating, a place where soldiers must fight.
Large-scale wars and small-scale confrontations are frequent, and both sides are engaged in grinding strangulation.
Human life is like a mustard.
Chu Mufeng really didn't have time to leave Huating, his position was particularly sensitive, if he said that he left rashly, something important really happened, he couldn't afford to be responsible.
So even if he wanted to go to the mountain city to see his grandfather, it was inconvenient.
Of course, during this period, Fan Xiliang, Jin Xilai and Shen Lang sent letters to Chu Mufeng and called them respectively.
These three people are currently mixing well, with their combat bravery, Fan Xiliang has been promoted to officer, and he is currently a major.
Jin Xilai still continued to follow Liu Gongquan to do things, and Liu Gongquan had been promoted and transferred to the Ministry of Finance, so Jin Xilai naturally rose to the top.
The Shen family behind Shen Lang has gained a firm foothold in the mountain city, and the current development momentum is good.
"In this troubled autumn, it's not bad to have a good home."
Chu Mufeng muttered to himself.
He doesn't ask Fan Xiliang that they are all high-ranking officials, he just wants them to be safe.
This evening.
Chu Mufeng ate with Yan Mo.
Speaking of which, Yan Mo's recent days have been really anxious.
As the director of the garrison department of Huating City, anyone can go, but he can't be a deserter and can't leave his post without permission.
The police have been programmed into the battle sequence, and Yan Mo must be ready to go to war at all times.
"Brother Chu, you have to be careful recently, I estimate that you Huating Station also has to have people fighting, who makes the recent situation inevitable, our troops seem to be unable to withstand it."
Yan Mo shook his head and said after drinking a glass of wine.
"Well, I know this in my heart, in fact, the military commander has already formed troops to participate in the battle."
Chu Mufeng nodded.
"You said Huating, can we still hold it?"
Yan Mo asked a little dejectedly.
"To be honest, it's hard!"
Chu Mufeng raised his wine glass, looked at Yan Mo's somewhat decadent expression and said slowly.
"Senior brother, do you think we can hold it? If you can't hold it, according to the current situation, defeat is certain, so if you have any ideas, do it quickly. ”
"Don't wait until Huating City has completely fallen, if you do it again, it will be too late!"
"I don't have anything I want to do, your sister-in-law and they have left Huating, and I am the only one left here."
"I'm going to take my brothers from the garrison department to fight anyway, I don't believe that the army of the island country can't be killed, and I want to fight them to the end."
Putting down the wine glass, Yan Mo said with a firm expression.
"Senior brother."
Hearing this, Chu Mufeng put down his chopsticks and said in a serious tone: "Senior brother, if I were you, I wouldn't think like this. ”
"I'm not saying you can't fight, but it's a case-by-case matter. If it is explained that he knows that he will go to die, it is not a hero, but a foolish act. ”
"I hope you can think more about whether it's worth it before you die."
"Well, I know what you mean, I won't act recklessly."
Yan Mo nodded and said.
"That's good!"
After the two of them had a heart-to-heart exchange, Chu Mufeng returned to Huating Station.
As soon as he arrived here, someone came to the door, and the person who came turned out to be Shen Lang.
"Hey, aren't you supposed to be in the mountain city? Why did you come here all of a sudden? ”
Chu Mufeng said in surprise.
"I'm here to pick people up!"
With Shen Lang's explanation, Chu Mufeng understood. It turned out that Shen Lang didn't say that he had made a special trip to Huating, but that he had something to do in Jinling.
As a result, the Shangguan family, which cooperated well with the Shen family, had something trivial here, and in the case that no one could be arranged, I hoped that Shen Lang could take the little princess of the Shangguan family in Huating back to the mountain city.
"Shangguan family? Could it be that you have a very good relationship with your Shen family? ”
Chu Mufeng raised his eyebrows and asked.
"Yes."
Shen Lang nodded heavily and replied, "Our Shen family was able to gain a firm foothold in the mountain city so quickly, and it was inseparable from the help of the Shangguan family. ”
"The influence of this family in the mountain city is not low, besides, Shangguan Mingyu and I are also friends, she is in trouble here, brother, I can't say that I stand by and watch, right?"
"How's it going, do you need my help?"
Chu Mufeng asked.
"If you need it, I'll definitely look for you, but it's not needed at the moment, it's all some business matters, and I believe it can be handled." Shen Lang said with a smile.
After this period of training, Shen Lang has become more mature and stable than before.
"Okay, if you need it, just come to me!"
The two chatted about Fan Xiliang and their affairs again, and Shen Lang got up to say goodbye and leave.
Seeing that when Shen Lang left, there was someone around him to protect him, and Chu Mufeng couldn't help but feel relieved.
It's a troubled time, and it's not wrong to go out with more bodyguards.
"Deputy Stationmaster Chu!"
Just when Chu Mufeng was about to go back to the office, Hua Zhiwu appeared in front of him, and after stopping him, he said with a smile.
"You come to me, I have something to tell you."
"Good!"
In the stationmaster's office, Hua Zhiwu handed over a telegram.
"This is a secret message from the headquarters, and it is specially named to you."
"Brother Chu, you now have a new mission!" When there is no one, Hua Zhiwu will call Brother Chu, which is even more almost not.
Telegraph? Task?
After Chu Mufeng took it, he found that the content of the telegram was very simple: be sure to destroy the ninth warehouse.
"Warehouse Nine? What do you mean? ”
Chu Mufeng raised his eyebrows and asked.
"Let Director Tang tell you this personally!"
Hua Zhiwu was about to call Tang Jingzong as he spoke.
After he handed over the microphone, Chu Mufeng took it, and Tang Jingzong's voice came from there.
"It's me!"
"Mu Feng, have you received the telegram?" Tang Jingzong asked.
"yes, got it!"
Chu Mufeng said respectfully.
"Very good, the content of the telegram is your mission this time, and this mission is also very important to the bureau. It is still clear where the location of this so-called warehouse No. 9 is. ”
"But we've received information that there is a large amount of medicine hoarded in this warehouse. You know, in this day and age, medicine is scarce. ”
"And these medical supplies are all for the use of the island nation's army."
"Your mission is to destroy this Ninth warehouse for me, so that their soldiers have no way to use this batch of medicines!"
"How's that, I don't know?"
"Clear!"
Chu Mufeng immediately said loudly: "Seat, I will investigate the matter of the ninth warehouse immediately, and strive to destroy it as soon as possible." ”
"Very well, I'm waiting for your good news."
"Yes!"
After hanging up the phone, Hua Zhiwu looked at Chu Mufeng, who looked a little melancholy, and said, "Old Chu, are you thinking that the location of this No. 9 warehouse is difficult to find?" ”
"Yes!"
Chu Mufeng nodded very directly, "Stationmaster Hua, you are also clear about this matter, if you say that there is the location of the ninth warehouse, I can find a way to destroy it." ”
"But now I just draw a round cake and want me to eat it, where do I find it? It's a bit of a tough thing. ”
"You're right, if you can know the location, it's easy to say, but now you don't know anything, how can you destroy it?"
Hua Zhiwu was also scratching his head about this.
"I'll investigate it as soon as possible!"
Chu Mufeng said with a frown.
"Well, I'll help you find out the news too."
"Thank you, Stationmaster."
……
That night, Chu Mufeng went to see Mrs. Helian,
When he told the story, Mrs. Helian's eyes suddenly lit up, and she said in an excited tone: "I should know about the No. 9 warehouse you said. ”
"Oh, you know?"
Chu Mufeng was very surprised at this time.
I just said it casually, but I didn't expect to have an unexpected gain here with Mrs. Helian.
"Yes, I really know, even if you don't say it, I'm going to move the idea of this Ninth warehouse in the next two days."
Madame Helian paused, her tone a little heavier.
"There is a great need for medical supplies in the base area, and there is a whole warehouse here, if it can be transported over, it can save the lives of many soldiers."
"You're right, so what are you going to do?"
Chu Mufeng squinted and asked.
"Assault!"
Mrs. Helian said calmly: "The location of this warehouse is here in the city......"
As she spoke, Madame Helian took out a map and pointed to a place.
"This is heavily defended by the Japanese side, and you said that if you want to take this place by stratagem, you can only attack."
"So our plan is very simple, that is, to storm this place within half an hour, and transport as many medicines as we can, and as for the rest, we will blow it up on the spot before we have time to carry it."
"Half an hour?"
Chu Mufeng thought thoughtfully, "You mean that the Japanese rescue will arrive within half an hour, right?" ”
"Yes, within half an hour, the gendarmerie closest to the warehouse will definitely rush to the rescue, and we don't have much time to waste."
"I also know that this plan may be a bit impulsive, but we will take this batch of drugs with us anyway."
Mrs. Helian looked at Chu Mufeng and spoke with deep meaning.
"You haven't been to the base area, and you don't know how difficult the conditions are there. You haven't been to our field hospital either, and you don't know how many soldiers die or are crippled every day because of lack of medicine. ”
"Madam, tell me more about the plan in detail. If you can, I'll be able to help you stop the reinforcements, and then try to empty the medicine in the warehouse and blow it up. ”
Chu Mufeng said.
"Can you stop?"
Madame Helian was slightly stunned and then said with joy: "If you can really help stop the attack, you will be of great help!" ”
"That way we'll have more time to empty the warehouse, don't worry, just give us half an extra hour, enough to empty all those medicines!"
Emptying a warehouse in half an hour?
For others, Chu Mufeng didn't believe it, but if this matter was to be done by Mrs. Helian, maybe it would really be possible.
"No problem, let's talk about the plan."
"The plan is like this......"
