Chapter 0488 - Asking for Help
The call was from Ryuichi Hiraoka, who told Kenji Dohihara on the phone that he would come to Shigemudo to reinforce him immediately with a team of men.
Putting down the phone, Dohihara felt very embarrassed, he was a dignified lieutenant general of the Japanese Army, and he was mixed up to the point of letting a civilian official reinforce him.
Nest to nest, angry to angry, but Tsuchihara is still very grateful to Ryuichi Hiraoka, and I don't know what method he took to let the consulate out of the siege.
Outside Chongguang Hall, the militants attacking on the ground seemed to have retreated, and they didn't hear any movement for a long time, but they didn't know if the snipers on the tall building opposite had retreated?
Kenji Dohihara understands very well that any target who is sniped, if he wants to live, he should not be impulsive, let alone compare time and patience with professional snipers, they can hide in one place without eating or drinking for dozens of hours, just to find the flaws of the sniper target.
Until the target is killed!
Although there was no gunfire outside, Tu Feiyuan still didn't dare to act rashly, he had to wait patiently for Hiraoka Ryuichi and them to arrive, and he had to wait patiently until any position around Chongguangtang where snipers could be hidden was cleared.
"Report to Your Excellency General, Chang Yuqing's people went out to inspect and found that the militants outside had retreated." Second Lieutenant Sato stepped into the room and reported. ,
"Got it, the Consul General Hiraoka of the Consulate will bring someone over immediately, go and tell your people, don't get me wrong, in addition, you immediately send people to occupy the commanding heights around Chongguang Hall!" Kenji Tsuchihara ordered.
"Hey!" Sato said yes and withdrew.
……
After the students outside the consulate left, Ryuichi Hiraoka and Masao Ishikawa set off from the Japanese consulate to the "Jiji Weekly" magazine on the Zhonghui Bank building on Edoya Road.
In the magazine, those editors and reporters are working in an orderly manner, and it seems that there is such a big commotion outside today, and they are not doing anything at all.
Chen Xiaoyun and Zheng Pingru came over early in the morning, and they always stayed in the editorial department to write articles, and they didn't even move their butts.
Lu Mengying came a little late, she held a few leaflets she had picked up on the street, walked into the editorial office, and shouted: "It's so lively outside today, there are strikes everywhere, and there are guerrillas attacking the Japanese military police headquarters." ”
Lu Mengying's news, in the editorial department, did not cause the expected effect, she stupidly rubbed the leaflet in her hand, threw it into the trash, and then sat down in her place, looking through a newspaper.
So, when Ryuichi Hiraoka came upstairs, he saw that the editorial office was quite like a thing.
"Excuse me, is your president Feng Chen here?" Masao Ishikawa stood at the entrance of the editorial department, knocked on the door and asked.
"Oh, sir, what do you have to do with our president?" Zheng Pingru stood up vigilantly, glanced up and down at Ryuichi Hiraoka and Masao Ishikawa standing at the door, and then walked to the door and greeted them.
"Miss, I'm your President Feng's classmate, and I'll find him something." Masao Ishikawa replied politely.
"Oh, then you can wait a little longer in his office next to him, I guess he'll be back soon." Zheng Pingru was about to take Hiraoka Ryuchi and the two to Feng Chen's office next to him.
"Pingru, let's let the two gentlemen wait here first." Chen Xiaoyun suddenly realized something, hurriedly got up to stop Zheng Pingru, and warmly beckoned Ryuichi Hiraoka and Masao Ishikawa to sit down on the sofa in the editorial office.
Chen Xiaoyun poured a cup of tea for Ryuichi Hiraoka and Masao Ishikawa each, put it on the small coffee table in front of the sofa, and then sat back in his place.
"Miss, where did you President Feng go?" Masao Ishikawa asked.
"Sir, just now there was a gentleman named Song Wei, who also came to our president, and I told him that the president was not there, and he said that he knew where our president was, and then left." Lu Mengying suddenly interjected.
"Matsuo?" Masao Ishikawa asked.
"Yes, he also said that he will be back with our president in a moment." Lu Mengying didn't know why, it turned into a chatter today.
"Alright, we'll wait for them right here." Masao Ishikawa looked a little anxious.
At this moment, footsteps were heard in the hallway, and the footsteps stopped at the entrance of the editorial department.
"Oh? Teacher, why are you here? Sure enough, it was Feng Chen who came back with Matsuo Taro behind him.
"Let's talk about it in your office." Masao Ishikawa stood up.
Feng Chen asked Hiraoka Ryuichi and the others to come to his office next to him, sat down on the sofa, and personally poured a cup of tea for each of the three of them, and then sat down in front of his desk.
"Teacher, I heard Matsuo-kun say that at eight o'clock, a large number of young students gathered on Huangpu Road in Hongkou District and besieged the consulate, how did you and Ishikawa-kun get out?" Feng Chen asked with concern.
"It was the U.S. Consulate that sent U.S. GIs and people from the patrol house to relieve the siege." Ryuichi Hiraoka replied.
"How so?" Feng Chen shook his head and asked knowingly.
"Today is the first anniversary of the Lugou Bridge Incident." Ryuichi Hiraoka said.
"Oh, I forgot about it." Feng Chen looked suddenly enlightened.
"Feng Sang, where did you go just now?" Ryuichi Hiraoka asked.
"Mr. Wan Molin came to me to discuss dealing with an economic dispute, but I didn't expect that as soon as I sat down in the Du Mansion, Matsuo-kun came over and said that there was an accident on the teacher's side." Feng Chen replied calmly.
"Feng Sang, you hurry up and arrange a few people, let's go to Chongguangtang in Hongkou District together, General Tu Feiyuan is besieged by a group of unknown militants, I suspect that it is someone from the Qing Gang, I want you to come forward to mediate." Hiraoka Ryuichi was very aware of Feng Chen's position in the Green Gang.
"Are you sure the teacher is from the Green Gang?" Feng Chen asked.
"It's hard to say, listening to General Tu Feiyuan's phone call, there are at least four professionally trained snipers hidden around his Chongguang Hall, and these snipers have locked him in the Chongguang Hall building and can't get out." Hiraoka Ryuchi told Feng Chen truthfully about the situation encountered by Tu Feiyuan.
"Sniper?"
Feng Chen thought about it, and suddenly understood that the sniper must be Chen Baohua's person, but how could there be so many snipers there at once?
"Teacher, since that's the case, you let me arrange it first, and we'll go over and have a look."
Feng Chen thought that since Hiraoka Ryuichi came to the door, he should not be pretentious, and should take this opportunity to come forward and leave a good impression in front of Tu Feiyuan, and also let Tu Feiyuan, an old spy, owe him a favor.
But how to inform Chen Baohua?
Chen Baohua's character Feng Chen knows very well, he is thinking about killing Kenji Tu Fei Yuan today, and if he goes to intervene himself, he will definitely be unhappy.
What to do?
"Teacher, wait a minute."
Feng Chen thought about it, left his office, and came directly to the office on the fifth floor of the Zhonghui Building, grabbed the phone on the table, and called Wan Molin.
"Mr. Wan, you immediately arrange for people to block the tall buildings around Chongguang Hall in Hongkou District first, and protect Chen Baohua and their snipers in Zhongtong District from retreating, and when I arrive at Chongguang Hall, our people will retreat immediately!" Feng Chen gave Wan Molin an order.
"You're going to Chongguang Hall?" Wan Molin was a little puzzled.
"Yes, my teacher Ryuichi Hiraoka came over in person, you just do what I just said, it's not clear on the phone, I'll explain it to you after we meet." Feng Chen said eagerly.
"Okay, I'll arrange it immediately!" Wan Molin agreed.
Wan Molin listened to Feng Chen's words like this, it was because when Du Yuesheng left Shanghai, he repeatedly explained that Wan Molin had to discuss with Feng Chen on all major and minor matters, and let Feng Chen be the master on key issues.
Moreover, Wan Molin was a very smart person with a very flexible brain, and he quickly understood that Feng Chen's intention in doing this was to gain favor with the Japanese.
After talking to Wan Molin on the phone, Feng Chen called the European style café again, and asked Gu Jiarong, who was sitting in the formation to direct the distribution of leaflets, to bring more than a dozen brothers to the Zhonghui Building to obey orders.
