Chapter 12 (4) Accidental Collision

The office of the mining union is located in a small room in the office area of the limestone mine outside the city, and no one usually works here for a long time, and only uses it when everyone is called for a meeting. But the doors are never locked, and the workers love to come here since they had a union, so there is always a constant flow of people, even though there is no one to work a lot of the time.
On this day, Li Liang came. He was dressed in shabby overalls, and there was a lot of dust on his body, exactly like a worker. At the door of the trade union office, there were a few workers who were off duty, gathered here to chat, and Li Liang greeted everyone affectionately and walked straight into the house.
The room was empty, on a wooden table, there was a basket containing dry tobacco, and a note was pressed under the basket, Li Liang took it and looked at it, and the note wrote a sentence: I went to see Langzhong to see a doctor, please leave a message if you have something. The money is thick.
Qian Zhihou is sick? Li Liang was a little puzzled. He put down the anjo and heard footsteps outside the door, and turned his head to see the calf's head poking in through the door. The calf was a worker in the mine and also a union officer, and the young man was round and round-headed, stout and strong.
"Is the old money back?" Maverick asked.
"I didn't see it," Li Liang pointed to the note on the table, "Look, Lao Qian has a note, stay here." ”
The little cow walked into the house, shook his head, as if he was in a hurry, turned around, scratched his head, and Li Liang asked, "What's the matter, is there something urgent?" ”
"It's not too urgent," said the calf, "who knows if the old money will come back in the afternoon, alas." ”
"What's the matter, Lao Qian is not here, can't we do it for him?" Li Liang said enthusiastically.
Xiao Niu leaned over and said with a mysterious face: "Lao Qian has a meeting in the afternoon, outside the city, which is very important, but he is sick at this time, you say it's not bad." ”
"Ouch," Li Liang patted his thigh, "yes, don't you delay it?" Maverick, it's almost noon, and if the old money doesn't come back, it's going to be a mistake. Let's figure it out. ”
"What can I do?"
"Yes," Li Liang slapped his thigh again, "Little Niu, aren't we all trade union members?" You can't watch everyone's affairs be delayed, you have to be responsible, right? I think, I'll hold this meeting for Lao Qian first, and then report to him when I come back. ”
"Is that okay?"
Li Liang had a serious expression, "Little Niu, the worker brothers elected us as representatives, we can't eat for nothing, if something happens, how can we shrink back?" ”
"Okay," Xiao Niu hesitated for a moment and said, "Then you go first, the location is the Yaowang Temple on the loess hill outside the city." ”
"Yaowang Temple?" Li Liang was stunned for a moment, "Why did you choose such a remote place?" ”
The calf looked out of the door, lowered his voice and said, "This meeting is very important, so it is necessary to avoid the factory and the authorities, and the content is to carry out joint operations with the military forces." ”
"Military power?" This time, Li Liang was really surprised.
"But it's not," Xiao Niu continued to lower his voice and said: "General Xia in the north has sent two representatives to secretly contact with our Hunan provinces and carry out a common struggle, this is our great joy, don't you say?" ”
"Yes, yes."
"So, this afternoon's meeting is very important, but Lao Qian suddenly fell ill again, alas, by the way, if you go, go quickly, don't go late." The calf urged.
"I'll go right away." After Li Liang finished speaking, he hurriedly walked out of the limestone mine and looked at the sun in the sky, it was almost noon, he hurriedly walked along the road outside the city in the direction of Yaowang Temple.
At the same time, Professor Wan, Hu Xuan, Xiao Li and others were already around the Yaowang Temple, arranged, waiting for Li Liang to take the bait. This plan was discussed by He Yuan and everyone, to make Qian Zhihou "sick" and lead Li Liang out to participate in a "secret meeting", Hu Xuan and Xiao Li disguised themselves as General Xia's subordinates, and reached an "agreement" with the representatives of various sessions in Changsha to jointly launch the expulsion of the warlord Zhang Jingyao, and draw the attention of the enemies in Changsha to the direct warlords. In the current situation in which the struggle between the direct line and the Anhui line is becoming more and more clear and intense, it is very likely that this plan will deceive the enemy.
Yaowang Temple, located on a hillside on the side of the road, used to be a tourist resort, but since the continuous war, after the warlord fight, gradually barren, the slope up and down, all over the weeds, it has become a deserted broken temple, and the incense is gone.
Li Liang walked on the path flooded by barren grass, and when he came to the Yaowang Temple, it was already past noon, and in the dilapidated temple, in addition to the barren grass, there were broken bricks and stones, bird droppings, and two strangers were sitting on the stone steps at the entrance of the temple talking. One of the two was a thin middle-aged man, and the other was a stout young man.
Li Liang had never participated in the city's meeting, so he basically didn't know the representatives of the various sessions, he stepped forward with a smile and introduced himself: "I am Li Liang of the mining trade union, and I came to the meeting for Lao Qian." ”
"Welcome, welcome," the middle-aged man looked enthusiastic, pointed to the young man next to him and said: "My surname is Zhang, his surname is Wang, I am a representative of the cultural world, and he is a representative of the industrial and commercial circles." ”
These two people, the middle-aged man is He Yuan, and the young man is Shi Suo.
He Yuan led Li Liang and Shi Suo into the main hall, which was full of dust and cobwebs, a piece of dilapidation, and there was an incense case in the middle, He Yuan said to Li Liang: "Old Li, let's have a meeting here." ”
"Very good," Li Liang said, "We workers don't pay attention to pomp, the main thing is to settle the big things." Lao Zhang, today's meeting, just the three of us? ”
"No, no," He Yuan smiled, looked outside the temple, lowered his voice and said: "The three of us, only the representatives of Changsha, stay in the meeting, the army will also come to delegate, let's discuss the matter of joint action, the matter is important, therefore, there should not be too many participants." At the same time, for the sake of secrecy, this place outside the city was chosen. ”
Li Liang nodded again and again, "Yes, yes, I agree." Lao Zhang, how do you plan our joint operation with the army? ”
"Yes," He Yuan took out a cigarette pouch from his pocket, lit a pot of cigarettes, and puffed out a puff of smoke, looking at Li Liang listening attentively, leaned forward, and whispered: "The representative of the army, it was sent by General Xia, and it is considered a direct line, although their President Feng Da has gone into the field, but the power of the army is still there, if we can unite with them, it can play a decisive role in our cause." ”
"Well, that's right." A trace of poisonous light flashed in Li Liang's eyes, and then he nodded frequently and echoed.
He Yuan continued: "We have a preliminary plan, let's discuss it. I think that although the enthusiasm of the workers and brothers inside and outside Changsha is very high, after all, there is no armed force, and if we act rashly, it is not enough to impress the authorities. ”
"How can it be legal inside and out?" Li Liang asked.
"Outside, they adopted the posture of troops coming to the city to carry out military deterrence, and internally, we mobilized all sectors of society to respond together, strikes, classes and markets, demonstrations, expand influence, and force Zhang Jingyao to step down."
"Good plan," Li Liang nodded, "Then, the question of the timing of the incident is the main problem." ”
"This, we have to listen to the army," He Yuan shook the ashes, looking serious, "We must use their timetable to decide our timetable, and today's meeting, we are mainly to discuss this issue." ”
"Well, okay, okay."
