The Sichuan Army Crash School located in the south school has already been closed, and the new class of cadets will not arrive until after the Spring Festival, and most of the instructors have already gone to various parts of Sichuan to select talents, so that only a team of more than 40 officers and men is left in the academy, which covers an area of several hundred acres.

At ten o'clock in the morning, General Zhong Ying, the general office of the school and the commander of the 33rd Association of the New Army, led more than 70 people to come to the horse.

"Brother, the people you want have brought you, all of them are good hands in the brother's guards and commandos, haha!"

After Zhong Ying finished speaking, he pulled the twenty-seven or eighteen-year-old senior officer behind him and introduced:

"Ruiyong, brother's guard adjutant, you have seen, Ruiyong and his brother are from the same Zhenghuang Banner, the elder brother's family and his family have not been separated since their ancestors, and there have been three generations in Chengdu, Ruiyong's archery and marksmanship are first-class masters, and his internal kung fu can be said to be outstanding and rare opponents, and he has listened to you from today on."

Xiao Yiming smiled and saluted: "Hard work! ”

Ruiyong hurriedly returned the salute: "The general said that we are a family, and his subordinates also see it this way." ”

Ruiyong's two sentences made Xiao Yiming feel relieved, and at the same time, he was quite emotional in his heart, he has now become his own person in the hearts of the Manchus, which means that this operation will not encounter the trouble of disobedience.

As a Han Chinese, Xiao Yiming hated the Manchu Dynasty that lost power and humiliated the country, especially the brutal killing and oppression of the Han people by the Qing army for more than 200 years, which was buried deep in Xiao Yiming's heart, but for some reason, he just couldn't hate the Manchu and Mongolian soldiers in front of him, not only did he not hate, but he had a sense of closeness and appreciation.

"I don't need to be introduced by my brother, speaking of which, you are still brothers, haha!" Zhong Ying smiled and turned sideways.

Xiao Yiming saw the young and tall team officer on the left, and couldn't help but stepped forward happily to clasp his hand: "Brother Tang, aren't you in the Shaocheng Police Station?" How did you put on the uniform of an army officer? ”

How dare Tang Wulin be presumptuous in front of Zhong Ying, lightly withdrew his hand, and saluted: "Half a year ago, thanks to the general's heavy weapon, he left the idle Shaocheng Police Station and entered the commando team under the general, and now serves as the deputy military academy officer." ”

Xiao Yiming laughed: "Then you don't need to claim to be a subordinate, your military rank is the same as mine, haha!" Brother Tang, we have been apart for a year, right? ”

"From the moment he realized that he graduated from the police academy, Brother Xiao took care of Wulin a lot, and Wulin didn't dare to forget it." Tang Wulin said earnestly.

"Nonsense, to say that again is to deny me as a brother." Xiao Yiming pretended to be angry.

Zhong Ying and Ruiyong laughed and told Tang Wulin not to see him like this, making him look uncomfortable like a human being.

"What are we going to do next?" Zhong Ying asked.

"Class." Xiao Yiming said with a smile.

"Class?" Zhong Ying was very surprised, looked at the two subordinates who were also surprised on the side, and then turned to Xiao Yiming and asked, "What class?" Don't go out to investigate the case and don't touch the party's den? ”

Xiao Yiming replied: "These trivial things have already been done, and there will be a clear goal tomorrow at the latest, and the most difficult arrest operation will depend on the brothers." ”

Zhong Ying was even more surprised: "So fast? Then we don't have to be idle here. ”

Xiao Yiming put away her smile and explained very seriously: "I won't be idle, on the contrary, I will be very tired." First of all, these more than 70 strong generals will be the backbone of this arrest operation, if the chaotic party is strong and the dens are scattered, the elder brother will have to mobilize manpower for the younger brother, and these more than 70 brothers will be divided into several teams to become the commander and main force in charge of a certain area and a certain place, so the younger brother must explain clearly to these 70 brothers the purpose of this operation, convey the instructions of the people who control Taiwan, and emphasize the discipline of secrecy and the principle of action. ”

"Hey! Wouldn't you just catch a few chaotic parties? As for it? Zhong Ying grinned disappretently, and the two team officers beside him also showed disdainful looks.

Xiao Yiming shook her head and patiently explained: "Brother is careless!" If you want to go into battle, a thousand rebellious parties are not the opponents of the brothers, but if you want to talk about arresting in a city with complex terrain with staggered streets and alleys, do you think the brothers can be faster than the patrol police? Again, what if the rebel party also has a gun? You can't let the brothers make unnecessary sacrifices, can we? If you catch a few rebels and cause casualties among your brothers, brother, where will you and I put our faces? I'm afraid the brothers will panic too! ”

The disdain on the faces of Zhong Ying, Ruiyong, and Tang Wulin disappeared, and was replaced by a solemn understanding, if there were casualties during the arrest, everyone's faces really didn't know where to put them.

After figuring it out, Zhong Ying sneered and said: "It's still my brother's thoughts, don't say anything, just listen to you, you just have to give orders." ”

Xiao Yiming smiled: "Okay, please Brother Rui and Brother Tang gather their brothers, and the younger brother will start class." ”

Ruiyong and Tang Wulin immediately went forward to shout for a while, and the officers and soldiers who were sitting lazily on the grass and chatting immediately lined up in two lines, and Xiao Yiming and Zhong Ying stood in place and watched. Xiao Yiming found that Tang Wulin's assault team was stronger than Ruiyong's guards in terms of assembly speed and discipline, and couldn't help but nod slightly to Tang Wulin, who had received new training and had new concepts.

"What do you think?" Zhong Ying asked.

Xiao Yiming smiled: "Little brother is wondering if I should make a few new whistles to use." ”

"Whistle? I remember, at the beginning, the new army of Tianjin Wei was a copper whistle, I don't know if it will be used after moving to Baoding, I heard that the foreign army and police in the Shanghai concession have been using that thing, I don't like the fart (eye) big thing, the sound is like a cat barking (spring), or the horn is strong. Zhong Ying's mouth is always so unobtrusive.

Xiao Yiming glanced at him, shook his head and raised his legs to leave, wanting to gather the team, Zhong Ying followed with a laugh

The city is still the same as in the past, with rickshaws coming and going all over the streets, and shops and shops on the streets are still so lively.

Located in the southwest of the imperial city around the Confucian Temple, almost all of the large and small kinds of schools, half of the bookstores and stationery stores in Chengdu City are concentrated here, the four major papermaking workshops that have flourished for nearly a thousand years in Sichuan all over Sichuan have opened their head offices in the Confucian Temple Street, the ink imported from abroad to the local ancient engraving, and even the metal casting characters are sold, the calligraphy and painting special raw Xuan Xuan Xuan, the cotton paper for printing, the bamboo incense paper with dark flowers and so on are dazzling and everything.

Ma Gang, who was dressed in civilian clothes and had been wandering for half a day, carried two bamboo baskets that could be seen all over the street, came to the street entrance and glanced around, waved a rickshaw, put the basket full of paper, ink and casting words on it, raised his legs to get into the car and said "Go to Wubei Street", and the coachman pulled him quickly westward, turned two street corners, and came to the opposite gate of the Army Crash School to stop.

Ma Gang paid the money and looked around, grabbed the basket, crossed the road, and walked straight into the crash school with the small door open, Wu San, who was standing beside the two guards, nodded slightly, and the guards immediately stopped talking and did not dare to interrogate, and let Ma Gang walk into the academy instructor conference room on the right.

In the conference room, two plainclothes police detectives of the Nanzheng Bureau, who were on leave, greeted Ma Gang, took the basket in his hand, and took out his things and put them on the wide long table.

On the other side of the long table, two old men in literati cotton robes and reading glasses still bowed their heads, scrutinizing two different pieces of paper and exchanging their opinions in a low voice.

Ma Gang took the teacup and asked in a low voice, "Uncle Fan, how is it?" ”

"It took the two old gentlemen for a long time, and finally selected three kinds of paper, and it is estimated that there are almost eyebrows, but several kinds of casting and engraving are not easy to confirm, and they are not in a hurry."

Lao Fan's name is Fan Chunlin, and it was he who rescued Xiao Yiming and Ma Gang, who were beaten and detained by the city guards, in the south gate, and sent the unconscious Xiao Yiming to the hospital.

Fan Chunlin is forty-seven years old this year, not tall but very stocky, and his appearance is ordinary, he is the kind of ordinary person who can't be seen in the blink of an eye when he is thrown on the street, but if he is judged by his appearance, it will be wrong, and it is very wrong.

Fan Chunlin at the age of 14 followed the master who served in Huayang County Ya to learn to be a servant, at the age of 21 the master died of illness, he took over smoothly with superb investigation ability and amazing sense of smell, and then made great contributions to the success of the two county commanders to solve the sensational murder case, but because of the stubbornness of the surname can not be reused, until the age of 35 did he get the appreciation of the new county commander, officially became the head of the Huayang County Yamen.

Just when he was proud of the spring breeze, the healthy old father and mother suddenly died suddenly, and then his wife accidentally fell into the river and died, so that only the lonely Fan Chunlin and the three oldest twelve-year-olds and the youngest six-year-old children were left in a good family, and Fan Chunlin, who endured the pain, had no choice but to transfer to Chengdu Mansion, and would rather do a low-level work, but also to raise a few children well, after which he spent three years secretly investigating, and skillfully wiped out the murderer who took revenge on him, the whole family of the rich man Li in the western suburbs, and finally avenged the deep hatred. The murder case of Li Dacai's family is still the first of the top ten unsolved cases in Chengdu Prefecture.

After Sichuan Province established a new police system, Zhou Shanpei, who attached great importance to talents, found that Fan Chunlin was a talented person, and single-handedly transferred him to the Nanzheng Bureau, the most important police substation in the city, and Fan Chunlin thus became one of the first batch of plainclothes police detectives in Sichuan Province, and his living conditions were greatly improved, but because of his old age, he did not receive a new-style formal police education, especially his honest surname that he never wronged a person, and was disliked by the commander who arbitrarily extorted money, and until now he is still an ordinary low-level police officer.

After Xiao Yiming recovered from his injury, he found Fan Chunlin to thank him, it happened that Fan Chunlin's only daughter was about to get married, Fan Chunlin was worried about not being able to borrow money to prepare the dowry, Xiao Yiming threw down a hundred yuan silver ticket without saying a word, and held down Fan Chunlin's hand and said that it was lent to you, and finally let Fan Chunlin's baby woman marry out in style, and the rich dowry and pomp envied the neighbors.

Immediately afterwards, Xiao Yiming recruited Fan Chunlin and two sons who set up stalls into the car dealership together, and the two brothers who were new to Wenmo cherished the opportunity very much, diligent and studious, the eldest son is now a disciple of Mr. Qu Lao, the general ledger of Huaxi Company, and the second son has become Luo Laosi's right-hand man, assisting Luo Laosi in managing the growing Huaxi Company. At the beginning of this month, Fan Chunlin's family moved out of the crowded Hongzhaobi Street in the south of the city and lived in a small courtyard built by the senior management of the Chengbei Huaxi Company.

At night, around the two rows of classrooms on the edge of the field, more than 70 vigorous men were still practicing the arrest tactics of outflanking and breaking the door, and the instructor conference room more than 100 meters away was still brightly lit.

Just after ten o'clock in the evening, Fan Gang respectfully gave the generous honorarium to the two old gentlemen who had worked hard all day, and then sent the two old gentlemen to the rickshaw that had been prepared for a long time, and then trotted to Xiao Yiming, who was guiding the training:

"Little brother, the two old gentlemen are old, I am embarrassed to keep them any longer, so I have to send them home after thanking them, it is estimated that the two old gentlemen will not leak secrets. Uncle Fan led people and more than a dozen brothers from the car dealer to step on the point, came back half an hour ago, and found a total of four dens, one in the Li family ancestral hall on East Street, one in the abandoned Huayan Temple in the eastern suburbs, and one in the sauce garden next to the military camp on Tiandeng Street, the largest nest is the lower courtyard of Wenshu Monastery, which is the temple scripture printing bureau and lay rooms outside the mountain gate, the number of rebellious parties has not yet been ascertained, and the preliminary estimate is more than fifteen people, because it is the printing place of all the leaflets. ”

Xiao Yiming was overjoyed: "So, the main nest of the chaotic party is really in the scripture printing bureau set up by Wenshu Monastery?" ”

"Yes, I will tell you in the evening, according to your opinion, Uncle Fan personally went again, took the latest sale of several scriptures for comparison, and once again confirmed that the font is exactly the same as the font on the leaflet of the chaotic party, there are more than a dozen characters with obvious identical characteristics, among which the printing ink shortage caused by the wear and tear of 'Zhi' is the most obvious, so there is no doubt that there is no doubt that the source of the leaflet is there." Ma Gang elaborated on the conclusion of the investigation.

Xiao Yiming immediately turned to Ruiyong, the person in charge of the operation who stayed behind: "Brother Rui, immediately divide all the brothers into four squads, one of which needs thirty-five people, choose your legs and feet to flexibly cooperate with the most skilled teams to enter this team, rest for half an hour, and then start an hour of training to climb over the wall and break the door, and then rest and eat, recuperate and wait for the action order." Don't feel distressed in this row of classrooms and offices, everything is required by actual combat, hit it, kick it, and I'll let people fix it when I turn around. ”

Ruiyong grinned: "No problem, you are satisfied." ”

Xiao Yiming pulled Fan Gang up, returned to the conference room, and immediately worked with Lao Fan and several plainclothes policemen to draw rough sketches of several action targets, and nervously formulated an arrest plan.
