Chapter 0232: Mission Accomplished
"The shopkeeper, Mr. Hong asked me to buy a hardcover copy of the Tao Te Ching for him. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć Stepping into the door of Yude Bookstore, Feng Chen said directly to Chen Yude, the shopkeeper of the bookstore, who warmly greeted him.
"Oh, sir, please, how is Mr. Hong doing?"
Chen Yude enthusiastically let Feng Chen into the bookstore, and hurriedly poured a cup of tea for Feng Chen and put it down.
"Good, good!" Feng Chen replied.
"Sir, sit down for a while, and I'll arrange to come over at once."
Chen Yude took the inner door up and out.
Feng Chen picked up the teacup, admired the neat room, and looked up to see a calligraphy and painting hanging on the opposite wall, on which the words dragon and phoenix were flying, strong and powerful.
Feng Chen came to the calligraphy and painting and read it softly.
The sun rises on the opposite side of the mountain,
Sending Ah Lang to the Great War;
Won the battle and returned,
He loves pistols and bombs.
The following is signed: The Surging.
Chen Yude actually hung a poem of surging martyrs here?
It seems that Chen Yude is likely to be a person in the party organization, at least he should be a person who has a heart for the Communist Party and sympathizes with the Communist Party, and there should be no problem for him to transfer the Japanese cabinet's plan to annex China to the party organization, right?
Just as Feng Chen was thinking, the door was pushed open, and a middle-aged man came in behind Chen Yude.
"Excuse me, this gentleman, who asked you to buy books on behalf of Mr. Hong?" The middle-aged man stepped into the door and asked as he looked Feng Chen up and down vigilantly.
"Oh, my name is Su Chen, a reporter from Hong Kong's "Ming Pao", and I was asked by General Li Jishen to come over." Feng Chen also looked at the middle-aged man, and then put the teacup on the table and replied.
"Mr. Su, please take a seat." Chen Yude asked Feng Chen to sit down.
"Hehe, shopkeeper Chen, if you hang such a poem here, you are not afraid of getting yourself into trouble?" Feng Chen smiled slightly, turned around and pointed to the surging poem hanging on the wall.
"Oh, Mr. Su, don't worry, I knew you were coming today, and I hung it out in the morning, this calligraphy and painting was personally given to me by him when I followed the surging martyrs in Hailufeng to make a revolution." Chen Yude sat down in front of Feng Chen, did not hide his identity, and explained to Feng Chen.
"Comrade Peng is the first fighter of the Chinese peasant movement!" Feng Chen said.
"Comrade Su, it seems that you are your own person, let me introduce you first, this is Comrade Tang Guangzhi." When Chen Yude saw Feng Chen calling him a comrade, he immediately understood Feng Chen's identity, and hurriedly introduced the middle-aged man to Feng Chen.
"Hello Comrade Guangzhi!" Feng Chen nodded to Tang Guangzhi.
"Comrade Su, when you flipped through the book "Capital" in the bookstore yesterday, I found that you are not an ordinary person." Chen Yude pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose, looked at Feng Chen and said.
"Oh? Then what did you say yesterday that there is no Communist Party in Guangxi? Feng Chen asked.
"Oh, I'm tempting you, and I'm telling the truth." Chen Yude said.
"Honestly? Aren't you and Tang Guangzhi members of the Communist Party? Feng Chen looked at Chen Yude with questioning eyes and asked.
"Of course, the two of us are party members, alas, Comrade Su, it's a long story, and I won't tell you the truth, we have lost contact with the higher-level party organization for four years." Chen Yude sighed and said.
"You've been out of touch with the higher-level party organization for four years?" Feng Chen was a little surprised.
"Yes, Comrade Su, let Comrade Tang Guangzhi tell you the specific situation." Chen Yude pointed at Tang Guangzhi.
Next, Tang Guangzhi briefly recounted the process of losing contact between the Guangxi party organization and the higher-level party organization.
"In 1929, after the defeat of Yu Zuobai and Li Mingrui against Chiang, most of our party members in Nanning retreated to the Zuojiang and Youjiang areas, and only a few party members stayed in the Wuxu area to lead the peasant armed forces to deal with the enemy.
This group of peasant armed forces, after several evolutions, persisted until the spring of 32, and after being brutally encircled and suppressed by Li Zongren and Bai Chongxi several times, almost all party members were sacrificed, and the struggle was forced to stop.
Subsequently, my eldest brother Tang Guangtian led our peasant army to fight in the 100,000 mountains, and held out until January this year, after my eldest brother died, this team was disbanded. ā
After listening to Tang Guangzhi's narration, Feng Chen sighed.
After being silent for a while, Feng Chen looked at Tang Guangzhi and asked, "Then your remaining comrades have not established a temporary branch?" ā
"The number of party members is too small, and Comrade Yude and I have only recently recruited a party member and temporarily set up a party group." Tang Guangzhi replied.
"And what are you going to do now?" Feng Chen asked.
"Look for superiors and rebuild the party organization in Guangxi." Tang Guangzhi replied without hesitation.
"Then why haven't you contacted your superiors for so long?" Feng Chen asked.
"First, the situation of the struggle is too complicated, and second, I don't know where to look for my superiors." Chen Yude replied.
"Yes." Feng Chen nodded.
"I wonder if Comrade Su can help us think of a way?" Tang Guangzhi asked.
"There is a way, but the difficulty is too great." Feng Chen said.
"Comrade Su, tell me, what can you do? We can overcome even the biggest difficulties. Tang Guangzhi looked at Feng Chen with a resolute and expectant gaze.
"I have a very important piece of information here, and I urgently need to send it to northern Shaanxi, I will write a letter to you, and you will arrange for a reliable person to go to northern Shaanxi to find the Party Central Committee and hand over the information to Comrade An Zhida or Comrade Li Kenong." Feng Chen said what he thought.
"To northern Shaanxi? We have also considered this method before, but in addition to the long distance, we are afraid that after arriving in northern Shaanxi, we will not be able to make the superior organization believe us without evidence. Chen Yude said.
"With my letter and this information, this is the credentials."
Feng Chen took out a piece of soap from his body, along with a thousand US dollars, and handed it to Chen Yude.
"The information is in the soap, you must keep it, you can exchange this thousand dollars into the ocean, as the cost of the road, you must find a reliable person."
"Comrade Su, don't worry, I'll go in person." Tang Guangzhi straightened his chest.
"That's the best!" Feng Chen nodded with satisfaction.
After the matter was negotiated, Feng Chen got up and said: "I can't stay here longer, I still have to go to the Appeasement Office to attend a press conference, Comrade Chen Yude, Comrade Tang Guangzhi, take care of yourself, there will be a period later." ā
ā¦ā¦
Feng Chen left the Yude Bookstore and hurried to the Guangxi Pacification Office, where the press conference had just ended.
Outside the door of the Pacification Office, I just met Yoshio Yoshida who came out.
"Mr. Feng, the press conference is over." Yoshio Yoshida said.
"So short? What's new at the launch? Feng Chen asked.
"The Gui department demanded that the central government stop the advance and maintain the status quo in Guangxi, and if the Japanese go further, they will immediately fight an all-out war of resistance, and Guangxi will immediately send troops at the end of the war." Yoshio Yoshida replied.
"Oh? It seems that the anti-communist goal of Chiang's anti-communism with Zhiying Er has not been achieved? Feng Chen asked thoughtfully.
"Yes, the press conference is not over yet, and Zhiying Er left the venue early." Yoshio Yoshida said.
Feng Chen thought in his heart, it seems that the Liangguang incident has come to an end in the thunder and rain.
Feng Chen and Yoshida Yoshio returned to the Dahua Hotel, and just sat down in the room, Li Jishen's secretary sent the ticket.
"Mr. Su, General Li said, set up a banquet here for the two of you to practice in the evening." Li Jishen's secretary handed the ticket to Feng Chen and said.
"You're welcome, please tell General Li, you don't need to do it at night, I have other things to do with Mr. Ji at night." Feng Chen didn't want to trouble General Li Jishen anymore.
"Okay, I'll convey Mr. Su's meaning to General Li." The secretary didn't stay in the hotel for long, and turned around and left.
"Feng Sang, shall we go back here?" After Li Jishen's secretary left, Yoshio Yoshida pointed to the ticket and asked.
"Hehe, the mission is complete, why are we staying here if we don't go back?" Feng Chen smiled and asked.
"Feng Sang, can we make a detour to Shanghai and stay there for a few days?" Yoshio Yoshida suddenly made a request.
"A detour to Shanghai? No, no, we came to Guangxi secretly under a pseudonym this time, and we can't act privately without the permission of Mr. Hiraoka. Feng Chen rejected Yoshio's request.
"Alright then, we'll go back to Japan tomorrow." Yoshio Yoshida seems to be a little unwilling.
"Yoshida-kun, both of us have familiar people in Shanghai, and if we make a detour to Shanghai, it will be easy to expose the purpose of our visit to Guangxi this time, and it is better to go back to Japan directly." Feng Chen persuaded Yoshio Yoshida.
"Okay, I'll listen to Feng Sang's arrangement!" Yoshio Yoshida agreed.
