thirty-three
That night, in the old teahouse in East and West Lane.
Huang Tao sat reading the newspaper and ordered a pot of tea.
Jiang Yuntian slowly walked up to the teahouse and came to Huang Tao's side.
"It's all going to be done, what kind of newspaper is the gentleman reading?" Jiang Yuntian asked Huang Tao.
"At night, naturally I read the evening newspaper!" Huang Tao put down the newspaper and saw the appearance of the person who came, Huang Tao was stunned.
"Uncle!"
"Xiao Tao!"
Neither of them expected that the relatives who used to get along day and night were actually comrades in the party.
"Sit down!" Huang Tao pointed to the stool opposite and gestured to Jiang Yuntian.
After Jiang Yuntian sat down, he looked at Huang Tao with a smile.
"I really didn't expect that you are also our comrade!" Jiang Yuntian said with relief.
Huang Tao, his eldest nephew, originally joined the Communist Party a long time ago, and now it seems that he can give his brother Peng Tianyu (Huang Zihao) an errand.
Huang Tao smiled and poured good tea for Jiang Yuntian.
"I didn't expect it, uncle, you are a progressive!" Huang Tao said to Jiang Yuntian.
"Xiao Tao, when did you join the organization?" Jiang Yuntian asked Huang Tao.
"When do you start?" After Huang Tao thought about it, he began to tell Jiang Yuntian about his experience over the years.
Jiang Yuntian was very emotional after hearing this, he didn't expect that after so many years, Huang Tao was already a subordinate of Comrade Mist, the legendary organization of the underground party of the Communist Party of China in Guilin.
"May I ask who Comrade Misty is? To be honest, I have heard a lot of legends about him in Guilin over the years, and I admire him very much! Jiang Yuntian asked Huang Tao.
"I'm sorry uncle, because Comrade Mist is in a special situation, so I can't reveal any news about him to you for the time being! But I can tell you one thing, this Comrade Misty is the person next to you, and he has a very close relationship with you! Huang Tao said to Jiang Yuntian.
"Someone close to me? How close is your relationship with me? Jiang Yuntian was confused by Huang Tao's words.
"Trust me, soon you will be able to meet Comrade Mist!" Huang Tao said to Jiang Yuntian.
"Good! Let's talk about the joint task first! Jiang Yuntian suddenly remembered what was going on and said to Huang Tao.
When it came to the joint task, Huang Tao suddenly fell silent.
He didn't know how to tell Jiang Yuntian about his superiors' decision this time.
After all, Jiang Haoyu is Jiang Yuntian's son, if Jiang Yuntian knew that Jiang Haoyu took the lead in the escort team this time, what would he think?
"I've already told you in the telegram about this mission, and I'm sure you've almost arranged it over there, right?" Jiang Yuntian asked Huang Tao.
Huang Tao fell into silence, didn't speak for a long time, poured tea for himself, and kept drinking tea.
"What's wrong, Xiao Tao? You are talking, is it that Comrade Mist's group is in trouble and it is inconvenient to arrange an escort group for us? It's okay, if that's the case you tell me, I can figure it out another way! Jiang Yuntian said to Huang Tao.
"Uncle! Our fog team and superiors attach great importance to this transportation mission, how can it be that no one can be arranged? Huang Tao was silent for a long time before finally speaking.
"That's?" Jiang Yuntian asked puzzled.
Huang Tao didn't speak, but took out a piece of letterhead, which added Comrade Mist's instructions, and Huang Tao handed it to Jiang Yuntian.
Jiang Yuntian took the letterhead and began to read it carefully.
"This is a decision made by the central government! Originally, Comrade Misty was going to participate in this escort operation with me! But for the sake of insurance, I consulted my superiors, who considered that it was not easy for Comrade Misty to lurk in today's position, and that the list of "Plague Plan" had not yet arrived, and Comrade Misty was the most likely to get the list of "Plague Plan". In short, Comrade Misty is too important for the entire party organization and the underground party of the Communist Party of China in Guilin! Therefore, Comrade Misty cannot come forward to participate in this operation, and can only change the leader as Comrade Taohuajiang! Huang Tao explained to Jiang Yuntian.
"Then the central government is right to do this! Comrade Mist's current position is really important, and nothing can go wrong! The replacement is also for the sake of the future of the party organization! Jiang Yuntian said to Huang Tao.
"But uncle, do you know who this Comrade Taohuajiang is?" Huang Tao asked Jiang Yuntian.
"Who is it?" Jiang Yuntian asked suspiciously.
"Comrade Taohuajiang, it is your second son and my cousin, Jiang Haoyu!" Huang Tao said heavily.
Jiang Yuntian couldn't believe it, and the teacup he was holding in his hand also fell to the ground.
"This ......" Jiang Yuntian was hesitant for a long time, unable to say a word.
"I know, that's why I didn't know how to talk to you just now!" Huang Tao sighed and said to Jiang Yuntian.
Jiang Yuntian smiled bitterly, he had hoped that his son would choose the right path to join the Communist Party countless times, but after hearing the news, he couldn't be happy.
In this case, the chances of danger and safety were half high.
If it's safe, then everyone is happy.
But if it is dangerous, then Jiang Haoyu may be in trouble with all the personnel involved in the operation.
Even, sacrifice!
"It's okay! He chose the right path and I'm so happy for him! Besides, since you have become a member of the Communist Party, you must be ready to sacrifice at any time! Everything must be in the interests of the party organization! I am so proud of him for being able to participate in this operation! Besides, if he can go to the liberated areas, it will not be a bad thing for him! Jiang Yuntian comforted himself.
"I'm sorry Uncle Jiang, it was we who pushed my cousin to the edge of the cliff!" Huang Tao said in frustration.
"It's okay! You're doing the right thing! You helped him choose the right path! Jiang Yuntian held back tears and said to Huang Tao.
Jiang Yuntian let out a long sigh and turned to look at Huang Tao.
"Xiao Tao!" Jiang Yuntian said to Huang Tao.
"Uncle, just tell me something!" Huang Tao said to Jiang Yuntian.
"You can't participate in this operation!" Jiang Yuntian said to Huang Tao solemnly.
"Why?" Huang Tao asked suspiciously.
"Because there's a guy who doesn't want to see you in danger! Over the years, he feels that the person he owes the most is you! Jiang Yuntian said to Huang Tao.
"Who?" Huang Tao asked puzzled.
"Don't ask! If you still think of me as your uncle, listen to me honestly! I'll be sending more of my men to support the transport team this time! Since you are not on the list drawn up by the Central Committee, you will honestly stay in your military command! Otherwise, if something happens to you, how will you let me face that person? And I don't think that person wants to see you on this battlefield! Jiang Yuntian said to Huang Tao solemnly.
"But uncle......" Huang Tao wanted to continue to say something, but was interrupted by Jiang Yuntian.
"It's an order! Comrade Lijiang, if you don't obey, I will force you to withdraw from this operation! Haoyu can't turn back, I can't save him! But you, since you haven't been involved yet, just let me stay in the military command honestly! Where you lurk to where you are today is also important, isn't it? Jiang Yuntian said to Huang Tao solemnly.
"Yes!" Although he was unhappy, Huang Tao still chose to compromise.
The next morning, Huang Tao told Jiang Haowen the whole thing.
Although Jiang Haowen was a little surprised, considering that his father must have his own reasons for such an arrangement, he acquiesced.
At noon the next day, at the foot of Elephant Trunk Mountain.
Huang Tao had been waiting here for a long time, and Jiang Haoyu slowly approached him.
"Comrade Lijiang!" Jiang Haoyu greeted Huang Tao.
"Comrade Taohuajiang, are you here?" Huang Tao turned around and said to Jiang Haoyu with a smile.
Thinking of the life and death that he might face in the future, Huang Tao's heart was actually very sad, but he had nothing to do.
"On the way here, there are no spies following you, right?" Huang Tao asked a little uneasily.
"Yes! But I got rid of it! Jiang Haoyu said to Huang Tao.
"Next, I have a mission for you!" Huang Tao said to Jiang Haoyu.
"You say!"
Huang Tao told Jiang Haoyu what happened and the content of the task, and after Jiang Haoyu listened, his eyes looked at Huang Tao firmly.
"Why do you want me to leave Guilin for the liberated area after completing the mission?" Jiang Haoyu asked Huang Tao suspiciously.
"This is Comrade Mist's arrangement, you just need to carry it out! Comrade Misty made such a decision, naturally there is a reason for it! "Huang Tao to Jiang Haoyu
"Yes! Peach Blossom River guarantees to complete the mission! Huang Tao gave a military salute to Jiang Haoyu.
"Actually, there is another thing that called you here today!" Huang Tao continued.
"What's the matter?" Jiang Haoyu asked suspiciously.
"Comrade Misty wants to see you!" Huang Tao said to Jiang Haoyu seriously.
"Really?"
Jiang Haoyu showed an excited expression, after waiting for so long, he was finally able to meet his superior, the legendary figure of the Guilin underground party, Comrade Mist.
Huang Tao told Jiang Haoyu the joint code, and asked him to go to the cave in front of Elephant Trunk Mountain.
