Chapter 176: The Fall

In Xiao Dianrong's mind, Lu Chengzhou has a sense of justice and is also very patriotic.

Lu Chengzhou has always been the object of his struggle, and even proposed to the organization that he should strive for Lu Chengzhou to join the party.

However, after learning that Lu Chengzhou actually cooperated with Chen Deming to sell Japanese goods, he was really stunned.

When Cheng Ruien heard about this, he was even more furious.

At that time, he rolled up his sleeves and wanted to follow Lu Chengzhou.

Buying and selling Japanese goods, put on ordinary businessmen, is just a profiteer.

However, Lu Chengzhou was also involved in the smuggling of Japanese goods, and the nature was different.

This is a typical traitorous act!

"You have a share of the bullets fired from the muzzles of the Japanese today." Cheng Ruien stood up and glared angrily.

And the man next to him also stood up and looked at Lu Chengzhou vigilantly.

When he saw this person just now, Lu Chengzhou couldn't figure out why he wanted to bring someone he didn't know, but now he understands that Cheng Ruien has found a helper.

"This is Captain Liu Yongcai of the 38th Division." Xiao Dianrong said.

"Captain Liu, look up for a long time." Lu Chengzhou hugged his fists.

For Liu Yongcai, he only heard his name, but did not know his person.

When he was in Yangcun, Lu Chengzhou only dealt with Chen Deming and Li Wanliang.

Liu Yongcai glanced at Lu Chengzhou contemptuously, and snorted coldly in his mouth.

He was an upright soldier with patriotic sentiments, who served as a security captain in Yang Village, and never let his subordinates take advantage of businessmen.

However, even so, two moths appeared.

No, it should be said that it is a traitor!

Chen Deming has already admitted that he not only did business with Lu Chengzhou and smuggled Japanese goods, but also accepted bribes from the Japanese and provided information about the Yangcun Security Brigade to the Japanese secret service.

Fortunately, Chen Deming, Li Wanliang and others were found before the war, otherwise, once they suddenly turned back in the battle, the entire army would be buried in their hands.

Therefore, Liu Yongcai was especially grateful to the military commanders who provided intelligence to the 38th Division.

As a member of the army, he is actually very resistant to the military commander's spies.

However, the information provided by the military commander before the war created extremely favorable conditions for the counterattack of the 38th Division.

Although the military commander did not participate in the battle, this information was enough to be worth a regiment.

"Chen Deming and Li Wanliang were both shot because they betrayed the country to seek glory. Officer Lu, I hope you will think carefully about what to do in the future. Xiao Dianrong said very disappointedly.

In Lu Chengzhou's eyes, he saw neither remorse nor fear.

The blandness in Lu Chengzhou's eyes made Xiao Dianrong feel deeply sorry for him.

At the beginning, the police wanted to arrest him, but Lu Chengzhou reported it in time.

Until now, Lu Chengyi has been planted in the eyes of money, and he is afraid that he will not reach out to rescue again.

"I did business with Chen Deming, just for profit, and it didn't involve betraying the country. In addition, these Japanese goods are taxed in the British Concession and are legal commodities in the British Concession. So, I didn't break the law. Besides, even if it is illegal, it should not be pursued by you. Lu Chengzhou said slowly.

"I really don't repent!" Cheng Ruien's fists clenched tighter and tighter, and he wished he could beat Lu Chengzhou hard.

He originally expected that Lu Chengzhou would turn back.

However, Lu Chengzhou's words showed no remorse at all, which made him extremely heartbroken.

Looking at the friend who used to be small and closer than his own brother, now he has become so strange, he is more sad than anyone else.

"China and Japan have started a war, and all Chinese should unite and contribute to the resistance against Japan." Xiao Dianrong said.

"Maintaining law and order in the British Concession so that you can settle here has done my duty. Of course, if you need me to do anything, as long as it is within my ability, it will be fine. Lu Chengzhou Zhenzhen said eloquently.

From the bottom of his heart, he was particularly envious of Xiao Dianrong, Cheng Ruien and others.

They are patriotic and can speak out loud.

They resisted the Japanese, they could act directly, and they could also rush to the position and personally duel with the Japanese.

However, Lu Chengzhou can't.

His mission is to infiltrate the Japanese secret service and obtain the secrets of the Japanese.

Once the Japanese knew that he was actually an anti-Japanese man, not only would he fail in his mission, but he would not be able to survive himself.

"Let's go." Xiao Dianrong sighed.

Lu Chengzhou's tone was very firm, although Lu Chengzhou agreed, maybe to help do something, but it was just perfunctory.

"I think Lu Chengzhou is a traitor and traitor!" After Cheng Ruien went out, he said hatefully.

"Judging from his current behavior, I can't make such a conclusion." Xiao Dianrong shook his head.

"Mr. Xiao, Mr. Cheng, I have to go back to the army." Liu Yongcai came to explain the situation to the National Salvation Association.

After Xiao Dianrong learned his identity, he specially invited him to come and run.

Liu Yongcai also hated Lu Chengzhou, but this was not his task.

"Thank you for your hard work, Captain Liu." Xiao Dianrong held Liu Yongcai's hand and said gratefully.

"By the way, I was on Lu Chengzhou just now, and I smelled a smell of gunsmoke." Liu Yongcai walked a few steps and suddenly turned around and said.

"The smell of gunsmoke?" Xiao Dianrong said in surprise.

"He's a patrol officer, he often shoots, and he smells of gunsmoke, so it should be normal." Cheng Ruien said casually.

"Maybe I'm too careful, two, goodbye." Liu Yongcai didn't think much about it, waved his hand, turned around and strode away.

As a soldier, or a soldier who is about to go to the battlefield, he doesn't want to stay for a moment.

Although on the battlefield, may die.

However, dying on the battlefield of resistance against Japan, he felt that he had no regrets.

"Mr. Xiao, are we going to let Lu Chengzhou go like this?" Cheng Ruien waited for Liu Yongcai to leave, and complained.

"Classmate, do you think the anti-Japanese national united front is so easy to achieve? People like Lu Chengzhou, as long as they don't betray the country, as long as they don't follow the Japanese with all their hearts, they are the targets we strive for. Xiao Dianrong smiled.

He was indeed disappointed in Lu Chengzhou, and he also knew that Lu Chengzhou's thinking had changed.

However, he still has to find a way to win Lu Chengzhou.

"Boom, boom."

Cheng Ruien was about to speak when he suddenly heard an explosion in the distance.

His face changed, the national army did not have such artillery, only the Japanese army.

"Look, that's a Japanese bomber." Xiao Dianrong suddenly pointed into the air.

"It seems to be in the direction of Nanda." Cheng Ruien's face changed.

Since dawn, all the Japanese planes have taken off and are used to support the Japanese army.

In addition to the Japanese Concession and Haiguang Temple, the headquarters of the Security Corps, the city government, the courthouse, Ningyuan, the city telephone office, and the city post office were all bombed.

Moreover, after the Japanese army learned that there was a reserve battalion of Chinese troops at Nankai University, they dispatched more than a dozen planes to bomb Nankai University in turn.

The Chinese troops in the reserve battalion were killed and wounded more than 100 people.

Nankai University's Siyuan Hall, Xiushan Hall, library, professor building, and nearby houses were bombed into ruins.

The Hebei Institute of Technology cost 300,000 yuan, and the water conservancy experimental hall that had just been built was also blown up.

The Japanese hated Nankai University to the core, and the progressive students of Nankai University suppressed Japanese goods, condoled the national army, and even took the initiative to ask to participate in the war.

They have done a great deal of work in maintaining public order, protecting traffic order, preventing rape, and calming people's minds.

Especially since 918, the progressive students of Nankai University have been propagating anti-Japanese propaganda.

The Haigu branch of the People's Pioneers is also located in Nankai University.

The party organization also has a branch in Nankai University.

Now that there is an opportunity, it is no wonder that the Japanese army did not blow up Nankai University.

The sound of the explosion in the distance made Lu Chengzhou also worried, and he didn't bother to take a shower and climbed to the top of the building.

Seeing the Japanese planes recklessly dropping bombs over Haigu, Lu Chengzhou's whole body was full of indignation.

With the strength of the 38th Division, without foreign aid, it was not an opponent of the Japanese army at all.

Lu Chengzhou had expected this a long time ago.

In the war between China and Japan, Lu Chengzhou firmly believed that victory must belong to China.

However, the process must be difficult and dangerous, and even pay the price of several generations.

After taking a bath, Lu Chengzhou couldn't sleep at all.

Xiao Dianrong and Cheng Ruien came to see him today, although they unmasked him, but they also made Lu Chengzhou and the National Salvation Association completely draw a clear line.

Hiroshi Kawasaki and Hidekazu Shigekawa have always wanted to get out of the way with progressive students, and find a way to lurk in anti-Japanese groups.

However, Xiao Dianrong's visit completely cut off this road.

Lu Chengzhou can confidently report to Kawasaki Hiroshi, because of Chen Deming's betrayal, he cannot gain the trust of the anti-Japanese group.

It wasn't until the afternoon that the gunfire in the city slowly subsided.

Lu Chengzhou knew that this was because the 38th Division was withdrawing or even being eliminated.

Lu Chengzhou knew that next, it was time for him to start really making a difference.

After leaving home, Lu Chengzhou rode around his precinct.

He found that there were suddenly a lot of people in the British Concession, all of whom were carrying their families, some carrying burdens, and some pushing wheelbarrows.

The entire Haigu, except for the British, French, and Italian concessions, all fell into the hands of the Japanese army.

Seeing these Chinese people who were still living and working in peace and contentment and living a hard life a few days ago, Lu Chengzhou felt very guilty.

It is a shame that the country is weak and the army is weak, and it is too shameful to not be able to protect the safety of the people in its own land.

After getting off work, Lu Chengzhou rode his bicycle to the Japanese concession.

After dark, there were few pedestrians on the streets, and although the Japanese army did not have a curfew, in fact, it was no different from a curfew.

Along the way, although Lu Chengzhou encountered several Japanese sentry posts, he spoke fluent Japanese, and he went to the Japanese concession, so he was not blocked.

"Mr. Kawasaki, Mr. Mokawa, next, can I make a big difference?" Lu Chengzhou's face showed a smug look.

After leaving the British Concession, Lu Chengzhou has been adjusting his mentality.

"Don't worry, there is a time for you to do things." Hiroshi Kawasaki said with a smile.

The Chinese army was really vulnerable, and in just one day, the Japanese Imperial Army occupied Haigu.

At this rate, it will take three months to occupy the whole of China.
