Chapter 4, Section 20, Mutiny
Twenty: Mutiny
Wang Mingming saw the newly pasted poster on the wall, she walked over and stared at the poster on the wall carefully. She loves to see posters of acrobatic troupes and circuses, but she never spends money there. It's not that she doesn't want to go, she knows that she has no source of money. She didn't know whether her plan to do business could be realized.
A jeep drove past her and stopped in front of her. The driver was a colonel officer, he looked back and saw Wang Mingming get out of the car, he habitually tidied up his military uniform. Walking with the steps of a mighty soldier, he walked towards Wang Mingming's side. Wang Ming looked at him, she didn't know this person. She walked her way with her head bowed. The man walked up to Wang Mingming and stopped.
Wang Mingming raised her head and looked at him suspiciously, she thought: What an arrogant officer, after the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, these people regard themselves as heroes of the Anti-Japanese War, and they don't even look like they can walk. She stepped aside to let go of the past and continued on her path.
The officer took a step and still stopped her. Wang Mingming didn't understand why he was doing this, so he took another step to the side, and the officer said, "It's Wang Mingming." ”
Wang Mingming's eyes widened in surprise. She suddenly felt that his appearance seemed familiar, but she couldn't remember who this person was. She nodded silently, indicating that she was Wang Mingming. The officer said with some excitement: "The hard work pays off, I have finally found you." Come to think of it, we hadn't seen each other in eight years. These eight years have not been ordinary eight years, we have all changed.
"I came to Nanjing to look for you, I asked many people about you, and I finally met a person who knew you, he told me that you died nine times in your life, you have experienced so many hardships, and you have survived tenaciously. You are an amazing person. I admire you. I'm Zhao Jiafa, your classmate, Fazi. Do you remember. He saw Wang Mingming staring at him with puzzled eyes thinking, and he said, "Don't worry, you think slowly, eight years ago we were in the same school, and I was one grade higher than you." Your good friend Yellow Cat and I are on the school basketball team. You go to our basketball games a lot. You'll remember.
"Do you remember when we were fishing on the banks of the Qinhuai River? I made a poem, Zhongshan is quiet, the blue sky is white, my beloved, my dream. Qin Huaishui, Jinling City, I love you girl, you are my dream. ”
Wang Mingming thought back and repeated his words: "Zhao Jiafa, classmate, hair." You are the haircut. Wang Mingming remembered, and she looked at him carefully, it was him. She was neither surprised nor excited. She said calmly, "Fazi, I remembered." You are my classmate, a good friend of mine.
"I remember that your grandfather passed away, and you followed your mother to Beiping on the night train. You lost a letter to me. I don't know how many tears I shed for this and for myself. You participated in [***] in Beiping in order to resist, time flies so fast, eight years have passed in the blink of an eye, you have fought for eight years, you are alive, you are living so well. I'm so happy for you. ”
Wang Mingming didn't laugh.
Hair smiled heartily.
Wang Mingming said: "I remember that your home is in Nanjing, and your family is okay." Your mom is okay. Wang Mingming's question touched Fazi's nerves. He frowned, remembered the past, and said softly: "My father and the people in the family were killed by the devil's plane, and my home in Nanjing is gone." I followed my mother to participate in [***] in Beiping. In the past eight years, we have been born and died fighting devils, and we have also fought with the bad guys within ourselves. My mother and I had a hard time. Fako sighed.
Wang Mingming saw that her son was in her stomach, and she thought: One family does not know that one family is difficult. In the eight years of the Anti-Japanese War, Fazi must have experienced countless hardships and obstacles, and he must have something to do when he comes to Nanjing now.
Fako joined his uncle's troops. This unit was the private team of Fazi's grandfather. After the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, his uncle led the team to the north and south, and unfortunately died in battle with the Yue army. Fako's cousin was the deputy chief of staff of the unit at the time. He was determined to take over the troops and continue the fight.
He asked his aunt for advice first. My aunt said, "This unit is our family's troops. Although you have been obedient to Nanjing since your grandfather and eat official food, the army is still its own. You should inherit your father's business and take over the army. After you take over the army, you have to storm the old men. They are cunning and cunning. "He said that I would listen to my aunt and that I would strengthen the guards around me.
He also consulted the deputy brigade commander and the chief of staff, both of whom were officers of the rank of major general, and he was a colonel, and he was worried that they would not be convinced. He didn't expect them all to show their support. He felt that things were going much smoother than he had imagined. Immediately after his father's funeral, he convened a meeting of officers above the battalion level and declared himself acting brigade commander. The venue applauded. Everyone supported him, and he smiled reassuringly.
When he came out of the recruit company, he served as a platoon commander for half a year, and after a battle, he made meritorious contributions and was transferred to the brigade headquarters as a staff officer. Three years later he became deputy chief of staff. He was basically a mechanic, and he didn't have any of his own people except for the people in that platoon, who he was more familiar with.
He disagreed, thinking that the people in the brigade headquarters were all his father's people, people he was familiar with, and they usually respected him very much. He wanted to transfer his platoon to the brigade headquarters as a guard, and he felt that it would cause those old men to misunderstand. It's better to put it first.
Fazi's cousin, who was the director of the confidential office, asked the soldier to send an important document to the acting brigade commander, and the soldier took the document to the door of the acting brigade commander's office. The office door was open, and a few heavily armed soldiers at the door wouldn't let her in. She felt strange and couldn't help but look inside the office. She saw the deputy brigade commander and the representative from Yucheng. Opposite them was the acting brigade commander, who was Fazi's cousin. He's talking about something.
She sensed that something was wrong, and she turned to leave, when the gun went off. He looked back and saw the acting brigade commander clutching his chest.
She covered her mouth in fright and almost screamed. She understood what was happening. The soldiers guarding the door did not embarrass her, she ran to her cousin in a panic and said, "Director, you run away, I saw that your brother was killed by the deputy brigade commander and the deputy." They mutinied. They're going to kill you, run away. Cousin Fazi stood up in disbelief. One of the soldiers ran to the door, looked at it, and hurriedly closed the door and said, "They are coming, go through the back window." The director panicked, went to the window, opened the window, and climbed out.
The two soldiers also jumped out of the back window, and the last soldier to come out closed the window and jumped out. They heard the door slammed open and hurriedly pressed their bodies against the wall under the window. They heard the footsteps and knew that the people in the house had come to the window and looked at them and shouted, "No one, go to the dormitory and search." There was a jumble of footsteps out of the room. They ran nervously and desperately to the backyard. There are horses there. Out the back door is a country road.
They fled to the special battalion in one go, where Fazi's mother was the deputy commander of the special battalion. The director rushed directly into her office and said anxiously to Fazi's mother: "Auntie, hurry up, the deputy brigade commander and the deputy have mutinied." My brother was killed by them. I escaped. They're going to kill you, run away. It's too late, so there's no hurry. ”
Without saying a word, the deputy battalion commander picked up his belt and tied it around his waist, opened the drawer and reached into the drawer to get the pistol. She had a gun in the holster of her belt, a gun in a drawer, and a gun in her pants pocket when she went out. It's her habit.
As soon as she caught the gun, the battalion commander of the special service battalion led people to break in, and his pistol was pointed at the deputy battalion commander and said: "Deputy battalion commander, you are surrounded, I received an order from above, asking me to arrest you immediately." The two soldiers rushed to the deputy battalion commander and grabbed her.
The deputy battalion commander held a pistol in a drawer. She calmly reached for the military cap that was placed on the table, and the hand with the gun was placed in the military cap. It's all done in an instant. No one saw the gun in her hand with her swift movements. Three gunshots. The battalion commander and the soldiers who came over were all shot in the head and fell.
