Chapter 23: The Conspiracy to Assassinate Fan Zhuxian (2)

Fan Zhuxian confidently said to Han Xing: "It's a shame that you are still a general who has fought a big battle, how can you still be a little superstitious!" I'll get ready and go to Yanggu tomorrow. They gathered people to protest with red tassel guns, and also confiscated the guns of the local team, maybe there will be other political backgrounds, get there, take a look! ”

"I'll go with you too!" Han Xing said.

"You don't have to, there are too many things at home, you just stay at home and keep the old camp!" Fan Zhuxian said.

Several people were discussing, and suddenly a staff officer came to report: "Report to Commander Fan, a large force of the Japanese army, the number of which is unknown, set off from Jinan and went straight to Liaocheng. The vanguard has already built pontoon bridges in the areas of Dong'e Yellow River crossing, Aishan to Huakou, and Jianggou Yushan, and it is estimated that they will be able to reach Liaocheng tomorrow. ”

Han Duofeng asked Fan Zhuxian: "Since the enemy is coming, will you go to Yanggu tomorrow?" ”

Fan Zhuxian said: "I can't go, I need to concentrate my troops to prepare for battle, and the team has not been gathered yet." The incident of the Loyal and Filial Piety Group has not been resolved, which is really a trouble. ”

Han Duofeng said: "Otherwise, I'll go for you and enlighten them." You can go to the military with peace of mind and fight devils. ”

Fan Zhu nodded first, and then said to Han Xing: "Deputy Commander Han, otherwise, you can also follow Commissioner Han to Yanggu." ”

Han Xingxin said, today is November 13, 1938, and tomorrow is the Liaocheng Incident. It's really time to come and finally come, you can't hide from it, history is history, but Han Xing is still making the last effort, following Fan Zhuxian alive and dead to see if he can change history.

Han Xing found a reason to shirk and said, "I've had a cold these days, and my brain is always foggy, so I don't want to take a few days off." I really can't go to Yanggu! ”

This was Han Xing's first disobedience. Fan Zhuxian heard that Han Xing was sick, so he didn't say anything more, just comforted him: "Commander Han is also too hard, since he came back from the southern expedition, he didn't rest properly, and he went to the fourth district again and did such things." Don't go to Yanggu. Commissioner Han, you can work your own! ”

In the early morning of November 14, Han Duofeng took a few guards to ride a bicycle from Liaocheng to Yanggu.

At this time, Liaocheng was intensively preparing for war, the organs were withdrawn, the residents were evacuated, and the troops entered the positions and were intensively building fortifications. According to the situation at that time, for the sake of safety on the way, from Liaocheng to Yanggu Anle Town, you should avoid Liaoyang Highway and go south on a small road, so as not to encounter the devils of Dong'alai.

But it was too late, and Han Duofeng still decided to go south from the old highway of Liaoyang.

Several guards were quite nervous, worried, cautious, looking ahead of time, looking around, still afraid of encountering devils.

Liaocheng is 50 miles away from Anle Town in Yanggu, fortunately, it is safe and sound along the way. When they were about to arrive at Anle Town, they passed through Wangzhuang, and there were three regimental men with red tassel guns standing guard outside the village, and they shouted from afar: "What are you doing?" ”

Han Duofeng replied: "We came to find the Loyal and Filial Piety Group for something?" ”

One of the regiments replied, "Our regimental leader lives in this village, but he has already taken people to Anle Town." ”

Han Duofeng said to him: "Go and bring a letter to your regiment commander, and say that someone is coming to him." If we can't see them today, we will go to Zhang Qiuzhen first and come to see them tomorrow. ”

After speaking, Han Duofeng and the others continued to walk south on bicycles.

When Han Duofeng rode into the North Street of Anle Town, he was encountering the students of Shandong Provincial No. 1 United Middle School, who had temporarily retreated from Jinan, and were evacuated home for the attack of the Japanese invaders. There happened to be a district office next to it, and Han Duofeng immediately went in and called Zhang Qiuzhen to inquire about the situation there.

Han Duofeng asked a police chief he knew, and the police chief told him that the entire provincial government-in-exile in Zhangqiu Town was in chaos and everyone was in a state of panic, and told him that his mother had moved elsewhere, and asked him to rest assured.

After making this call, Han Duofeng's heart was a little calmer.

Han Duofeng hurriedly dialed Liao Anbang's phone again, and said to him: "I am Han Duofeng, Commissioner Fan can't come because of the war, and he is preparing for war in Liaocheng." I've arrived in Anle Town, have you been in touch with the Loyalty and Filial Piety Group? Don't get me wrong. ”

Liao Anbang was stunned for a moment and said, "Didn't Commissioner Fan come, you can come!" Don't leave Anle Town, I'll be there right away, I have something important to discuss with you? ”

"How long do I have to wait for you, how did you get in touch with the Loyal Filial Piety Group? I didn't say hello and meet, I was afraid of causing conflict, and I couldn't feel at ease. Are you coming by car? ”

"You be patient, wait a while, I will go by car, 30 miles from Zhang Qiu Town to Anle Town, and you can reach it in 20 minutes."

Han Duofeng put down the phone and had to wait patiently with a few of his guards, at this time, he saw the loyal and filial piety members on the street coming and going, some carrying red tassel guns, some resisting big blades, and from time to time, a few members of the group went to the district office to look.

After waiting for 20 minutes, there was still no trace of Liao Angang.

A guard couldn't hold his breath and said to Han Duofeng: "Commissioner Han, it's been so long, when will the Liao An Gang come." If he doesn't come, he'll sell us!" ”

Han Duofeng patiently said to the guard: "You have to be honest, Chief of Staff Liao asked us to wait for him for 20 minutes, and the time has just arrived." Maybe he has a lot of things to do, and something is delayed. ”

After waiting for nearly an hour, I still didn't see the shadow of Liao Angang.

At this time, the streets are even more chaotic. The members of the Loyalty and Filial Piety Regiment came and went more frequently, and sometimes the gong of the Loyalty and Filial Piety Regiment to summon the members of the Regiment sounded.

Several of the guards couldn't hold their breath. One of the guards said, "We're going deep into the tiger's den, and if we don't get it right, we'll be eaten by the tiger." Another guard said: "Commissioner Han, I think you should hide for a while, if they rush up and count on a few of us, they can't protect you!" Another guard spoke even more directly: "Don't say I can't protect you, even a few of us are finished." ”

At this time, a group member of the district office couldn't stand it anymore, and said to Han Duofeng: "Are you Fan Zhuxian?" ”

Han Duofeng said: "I am Han Duofeng, not Fan Zhuxian, and the director of your district office is not here." ”

The group member said: "Our director has been hiding for a long time. In the past few days, the loyal and filial piety group has been making trouble, and I heard that they are looking for Fan Zhuxian to settle accounts. I think you'd better hide, because if you don't, we'll all be implicated. ”

Han Duofeng said to them, "Don't you have a gun in your hand? ”

There was a group member who said: "No matter what happens, the loyal and filial piety group is invulnerable to drinking divine wine, hanging divine runes, reciting divine mantras, and being invulnerable." Counting on these broken guns in our hands, we don't care about anything. ”

Han Duofeng didn't listen to their advice, but still said firmly: "Is it a blessing or a curse, it is a disaster that can't be avoided, so let's wait for Liao An's help." I'm Han Duofeng, not Fan Zhuxian, and I didn't offend them, so I don't dare to do anything to me if I forgive them? ”

At this moment, I could only hear the sound of gunfire outside, and the sound of killing shook the sky, and it seemed that countless people and horses were rushing towards this side. There was also a shout from the crowd: "Mad dogs are coming!" "Don't let Fan Zhuxian run away, wow-" "Kill Fan Zhuxian." "Resolutely can't let Fan Zhuxian go back aliveβ€”"

When several members of the courtyard heard this, they were so frightened that their legs were crisp, and they immediately pulled out their legs and ran to the backyard in a panic to hide.

When Han Duofeng heard this, he also felt that the situation was not good, and hurriedly led a few guards to the door to watch, only to see that there were about 2,000 people in the loyal and filial piety group, swarming towards this side. Some of them wore green pants, some wore red coats, some wrapped their heads in red scarves, and some simply held vertical banners with vertical banners that read: "Descend demons and catch demons", "Walk for heaven", "Heavenly immortals descend to earth", "Clear the world".

Several guards hurriedly pulled Han Duofeng into the backyard. Han Duofeng shouted: "What are you pulling me for, I want to enlighten them." ”

The guards shouted anxiously while pulling Han Duobee, "What kind of reason do you have to explain to them!" "Who listens to youβ€”" "It's important to run for your life." ”

At this time, the people of the loyal and filial piety group have come closer and closer, wielding big swords and spears one by one, really like knives like knife mountains, spears like forests, very spectacular, mighty. Those roars were also shouts that shook the sky, really rushing into the sky, shaking people's ears and buzzing, and they couldn't hear anything, only "Kill Fan Zhuxian!" "Kill Fan Zhuxian!" "Kill Fan Zhuxian!"

One of the guards mustered up his courage, loaded his submachine gun with a bullet, and stepped forward to block it. Han Duofeng shouted, "Don't shoot." ”

As soon as the guard hesitated, he was immediately stabbed by a red tassel gun, and before he could shout, immediately, dozens of red tassel guns pierced him, and immediately poked him into a hornet's nest, and without a single hum, he died of anger.

Han Duofeng only understood at this time that any words were superfluous, and when he encountered these foolish people, he could only speak by force. But in front of him, there are few soldiers and few guns, and it is too late to regret it. I had to flee to the backyard surrounded by guards, and one of the guards covering behind ran a little slower, and was immediately pierced by dozens of red tassel guns, and was chopped by a random knife, and in the blink of an eye, it became a pile of meatloaf.

Frightened, Han Duofeng and the remaining two guards were frightened, every sweat pore stood up, don't think about anything, concentrate, escape is important. Ran to the backyard, there happened to be a ladder there, and several regiments climbed to the roof from here, Han Duofeng was a little older, his movements were slower, and the two guards protected him to climb up the ladder.

As soon as Han Duofeng climbed up, one of the guards at the bottom was cut down by a big knife again, and seven or eight big knives were chopped in a mess, and in an instant, he had already lost his appearance, his head also flew, his arms were gone, and even his legs were cut into several pieces.

Han Duofeng only went to the room with one guard, and there were a few frightened group members next to him.

The members of the Loyal and Filial Piety Regiment have already filled the entire courtyard, and the latter ones are still squeezing into the courtyard, and the entire district office has long been surrounded by water. Constant shouting: "Shoot!" Shoot! Kill Fan Zhuxian. ”

Dozens of rifles began to aim at the roof, "Horn! "Horn!" "Horn! Trumpet! "It's really a flash of fire, stray bullets are flying around, dozens of bullets are flying up and down Han Duofeng, left and right.

The only guard was shot and fell on the room, still breathing, lying there grunting.

Poor Han Duofeng, at this time, he was shouting out his throat, and no one could hear what he was talking about. Han Duofeng saw that his words were useless, so he was in a hurry, so he had to take out his business card and scatter it into the yard. However, most of the members of the Loyalty and Filial Piety Regiment were illiterate, and no one picked up the business cards in the courtyard. But there are still people shouting:

"Kill Fan Zhuxian! Kill Fan Zhuxian! "Well hit, good fight, hit that old guy, hit!"

Han Duofeng could only desperately use all his strength, shouting hoarsely: "I am Han Duofeng, I am Han Duofeng, I am here to save you." Don't shoot, don't shootβ€”"
