In order to strengthen the protection of He Xiaoguang and prevent the assassination of the military commanders, Kato specially equipped He Xiaoguang with a car, and drove in and out by Oshima, Yoshino and other three escorts, these people learned that He Xiaoguang had been promoted to deputy team leader and became their top boss, and their attitude towards He Xiaoguang also changed from the original arrogance to bowing down to the ear, and every time before getting into the car, Yoshino diligently opened the car door for He Xiaoguang.

Of course, these changes did not escape Qi Heng's eyes, and through the changes in the attitude of these Japanese towards He Xiaoguang, it can be concluded that He Xiaoguang has gained Kato's trust. Their wedge finally succeeded in nailing it into the extra-high class.

In the villa on Fukaisen Road, Zhao Jinwen received a call from Qi Heng, he told Zhao Jinwen about He Xiaoguang's recent situation, Zhao Jinwen was very relieved after hearing it, and then relayed the good news to Ling Yunpeng beside him.

"Yun Peng, if it weren't for your original decision, I'm afraid we would have lost this chess piece today." Zhao Jinwen sighed that Ling Yunpeng had repeatedly persuaded him to show mercy to He Xiaoguang outside the law, and now it seems that Ling Yunpeng's judgment was right at the beginning, He Xiaoguang was not willing to be a traitor, as long as the military commander raised his noble hand and gave him a chance, he could still repent and reform himself, and become a sharp knife that pierced the enemy's heart on our side.

"Teacher, I think He Xiaoguang's sin is not to death, but opening up the net can make him grateful to Dade and change his ways."

"Yes, I have to learn some lessons from He Xiaoguang's incident." Zhao Jinwen smiled at Ling Yunpeng, the two of them had a very strong relationship, so Zhao Jinwen didn't feel that it was a loss of face to admit his original mistake in front of Ling Yunpeng.

"Oh, by the way, teacher, have He Xiaoguang's family all been picked up?" Ling Yunpeng suddenly remembered that Zhao Jinwen had promised He Xiaoguang that day, and he was also present that night, and he had heard Zhao Jinwen's guarantee to He Xiaoguang with his own ears.

"Don't worry, Yun Peng, I have already settled He Xiaoguang's family, wait for a while, find an opportunity for them to meet, so that He Xiaoguang can have a reassurance." Zhao Jinwen knew that He Xiaoguang's family was the key to him controlling He Xiaoguang, so he didn't dare to slack off, and after sending someone to take He Xiaoguang's family to Shanghai, he arranged it in a safe house and had someone to take care of it. In the name of protection, in fact, it is control, they cannot freely enter and exit the safe house, and three meals a day are served by special personnel.

After Ling Yunpeng heard this, he nodded, Zhao Jinwen still cares about his subordinates very much, although he also knows that this is Zhao Jinwen's means of controlling people, but as long as the goal is achieved, whether the motive is good can only be said separately.

"Oh, Yun Peng, I came to you today mainly to transport arms, Qi Heng told you about this, right?"

Zhao Jinwen originally didn't want Ling Yunpeng to participate in the transportation of arms, he felt that Ling Yunpeng was too tired for a while, and it was time to rest, besides, Qi Heng's action team had traveled back and forth to Chongqing many times, and successfully sent more than a dozen cars of scarce materials to the head of the country, and was praised by the bureau. So, he decided to tell Ling Yunpeng about it, after all, Ling Yunpeng's brain is active, there are many ghost ideas, and many problems can be solved in his hands.

Ling Yunpeng nodded: "I know a little, Lao Qi said, you want to change to the waterway this time." ”

Zhao Jinwen nodded: "Yes, it is too risky to take the land route, although the first few times Qi Heng and they transported those in-demand materials very smoothly, but after all, those are just civilian materials, the so-called gunshots, ten thousand taels of gold, how many people want to make a fortune in this war, especially those powerful bigwigs, they cut their heads and got into the eyes of money, so they don't care about the people's livelihood and starvation." In fact, these are all open secrets, known to the world, ancient and modern, Chinese and foreign, and there are not a few moths among those high-ranking veterans and important ministers of the Japanese military department, and I also took advantage of this, so I forged a letterhead of Itagaki as a talisman to pass the test. “

"Teacher, your trick really works, Qi Heng and the others have given the green light all the way these times, unimpeded."

"Because all the civilian materials are transported, and when Qi Heng passes through the checkpoint, he more or less dots the sentinels along the way, so the journey is smooth, but this time it is arms after all, even those bigwigs of the Japanese military department dare not ignore the ban of the military department, take risks, and defy the law. So I'm worried that if you still take the land route, you may run into trouble, because there are many levels to go through by land, you can't meet those old faces at every level, stuff some money to send away, all say that the little ghost is difficult, if you really meet which is not long-eyed, you have to open the box and inspect the goods, you can't stop it, but then it's all going to be a goof, if this thing is stabbed to the top, then the Japanese will definitely not give up, they will definitely follow the vine, in this way, our Longchang hardware factory will definitely be exposed, Maybe our Shanghai station will also hang by a thread. Zhao Jinwen told Ling Yunpeng his worries unabashedly.

After Ling Yunpeng heard this, he also nodded frequently: "Your worries are right, this matter really can't be taken lightly, otherwise not only did it not help Chongqing, but it put himself in." ”

"Yes, so I want to take the waterway, from Shanghai to Chongqing, if there will be trouble on the way, it is nothing more than the Japanese patrol boat, even if it is to board and inspect, there are always more hidden places on the cargo ship than the truck, such as the mezzanine in the deck, the warehouse, and the arms should be scattered and hidden in these places should be able to get through the customs in a fool's way, and the cargo ship carries a lot more than the truck, and the cargo ship carries more than ten times more arms than the truck at a time. This way we are less at risk. ”

"That's a good idea, but, teacher, do you have any ready-made cargo ships?" Ling Yunpeng also felt that it was much safer to take the water route than the land route, but the key was to have a cargo ship, otherwise everything would not be discussed.

"If there were ready-made cargo ships, I wouldn't have called you here today. We only have a few canopy boats and tugboats in Shanghai Station, which are short-distance and small, and may be okay with a small amount. ”

"Teacher, your biggest problem right now is that you don't have a large cargo ship, right?"

Zhao Jinwen nodded: "Yes, I am now a good woman who is difficult to cook without rice." ”

"Teacher, you can go to Tong Shengxi, Tong Lao is the richest man in the Jiangnan area, doesn't he have a shipping company under his name? There are more than a dozen large freighters! We can ask him to borrow two boats. Ling Yunpeng suddenly thought of Tong Shengxi, on Yunwu Mountain, he once claimed to be Tong Shengxi's protégé, so he was able to meet the old man Hu Mianzhi, the patriarch of the national government.

"yes, why didn't I think of him?" Zhao Jinwen slapped his thigh, and his mouth suddenly opened, but then he hesitated: "However, I am not very familiar with this social elite, I heard that Mr. Tong Shengxi has been in poor health recently, and he has been staying in his hometown in Ningbo to recuperate, I don't know if he will lend us a boat?" ”

Zhao Jinwen inevitably had a lot of concerns, if the smuggling of arms was discovered by the Japanese, it would be a mortal crime, even if it was a pivotal figure in society like Tong Shengxi, the Japanese might not buy it, maybe they would use this as a threat to coerce the old man to sell his own industry, I had heard that the Japanese wanted to control the mine under Mr. Tong's name, but Mr. Tong flatly refused. Of course, the Japanese will not give up because of this, and they are worried that they will not be able to find Tong Shengxi's handle, and if the incident of transporting arms happens, wouldn't it just give people the handle and harm Mr. Tong? Is Mr. Tong willing to take this risk and wade into this troubled water?

"Yun Peng, Mr. Tong is a businessman after all, and a businessman is the one who is the best at weighing the benefits and losses, if he knows that we want to borrow his ship to smuggle arms, will he lend it to us?"
