The train galloped north with billowing black smoke, Chen Zikun was dressed in a major uniform, sitting in the car with a Western-style command knife in his hand, Wang Degui and Li Changsheng, two veteran soldiers, were separated from each other, like two generals, Zhao Yufeng was carrying a shell gun, and he was dragging 2580,000.

This five-day battle of Zhiwan has ended victoriously, and the next thing is extremely easy, it is nothing more than the arrest of war criminals and national thieves, promotion and fortune, eating and drinking, looking forward to a better future, everyone is full of spring breeze.

Wang Degui and Li Changsheng have been soldiers for 20 years, and have been unknown, and the experience of these two days has turned their mentality upside down.

The two old fritters have always been crooked hats and oblique military uniforms, even if they go into battle, the bullet bag is also inserted in a few straws to fill the number, and they are always careless when they encounter anything, and now they have undergone earth-shaking changes from the heart to the image, the yellow cowhide bullets on the waist are turned, and a shell gun is carried on each side, and the flower trap and machete are carried behind them, and they are armed to the teeth with murderous spirit.

Zhao Yufeng is also unambiguous, on a hot day, the buttons of the military uniform are meticulous, and he stands beside Chen Zikun with vigor and plays the role of adjutant, although this "chief" has not yet been officially appointed, just a few days ago he was the leader of his own army.

Chen Zikun took a cigarette and put it in his mouth, and Zhao Yufeng immediately stretched out the lighter to help him light it, and his movements were natural and quick.

"Thank you." Chen Zikun said, and took out the list that Wu Peifu gave him.

"You are polite to me, in the future, I, Zhao Yufeng, will be your adjutant." Adjutant Zhao said with a smile.

Chen Zikun smiled faintly and glanced at the list, which was full of familiar names, nothing more than politicians and soldiers from the Anhui family, Xu Shuzheng and Duan Zhigui were among them, needless to say, among them was Yao Yilei's father, Yao Qizhen, the deputy minister of transportation, but the strange thing is that there are both big and small fish, and Duan Qirui, the biggest leader of the Anhui family, is not on the list.

Changxindian is very close to Beijing, and in a blink of an eye it drove to Zhengyangmen West Railway Station, the train stopped, and the pistol company Hulala jumped off the car to assemble the whole team, and after counting the number of people, the company commander trotted to Chen Zikun and saluted: "Report to the chief, the pistol company has been assembled, and there are one hundred and fifty people, please give an order." ”

Chen Zikun returned the salute and said, "Take a break!" ”

The 150 GIs came in a hurry, and they did not have time to change into regular gendarmerie uniforms, and each of them wrapped a white cloth around his arm, on which were written in black letters "Gendarme" to show that they were law enforcement forces, not rioters.

Chen Zikun glanced at everyone, and the soldiers who were swept by him all puffed up their chests, after two battles, everyone still really admired this cooking soldier who was born out of nowhere, regardless of the Anhui army no longer fighting, the battle array is also a real knife and real gun, the soldiers are all solid-eyed and straight-hearted, whoever dares to tie a detonator deep into the tiger's den, they will obey whom.

"Stand upright!" Chen Zikun shouted, and the sound of Qi brushing his heels together sounded.

Chan knows the trick of the queue very well, and he likes to listen to the uniform sound, especially when he is standing in front.

"Brothers, we are now a gendarmerie company ordered to arrest national thieves, every move is related to the face of the Third Division, the face of the handsome, I have remembered it clearly, when arresting people, the rules are point, Sven point, don't rob other people's things and flirt with other people's wives, otherwise military law will be engaged, do you hear clearly!"

"Hear me!" The soldiers agreed violently, and Chen Zikun waved his hand: "Pull out!" ”

Out of the train station, the gendarmes requisitioned a taxi, Chen Zikun and Zhao Yufeng got into the car, Lao Wang and Lao Li stood on the pedals on both sides, the gendarmes followed behind and ran forward, and a group of men and horses went straight to the War Department.

When the military police of the rebel army arrived, the sentry at the gate immediately disarmed and surrendered, and Chen Zikun rushed into the office of Xu Shuzheng, the deputy commander of the army, with a large shell gun on the nose.

The office was empty, and the phone was ringing on the large Western-style desk, so Chan stepped forward and grabbed the phone and asked, "Which one?" ”

"Youzheng, I'm Duan Zhigui, I heard that Wu Peifu's soldiers have entered Beijing, what do you think?" A panicked voice came from the microphone.

Chen Zikun laughed: "Commander Duan, wait for me at home, don't run around." After that, he hung up the phone and instructed Zhao Yufeng: "You take a platoon of people to arrest Duan Zhigui, and let's go our separate ways." ”

Zhao Yufeng led the troops to go, Chen Zikun opened the drawer and rummaged through, found a diary with a black leather cover, opened it and looked, it was densely packed with words, he didn't have time to look at it carefully and stuffed it into his pocket, and then rummaged through the filing cabinet, hoping to find valuable documents, but where could he read the vast number of documents, he simply flipped the entire cabinet to the ground.

Suddenly, a document with the mark of the National Police Agency caught his eye, and when he picked it up, he saw that it was a prisoner file made by the National Police Department during the May Fourth period last year.

Chen Zikun's heart sank, and the scene in the Willow Hutong Compound last year came to mind, and the Japanese spy carried such a page of files in his arms, on which were his own information.

His own information was deliberately leaked to the Japanese by Xu Shuzheng! Yan Hong was indirectly killed by Xu Shuzheng!

Chen Zikun jumped up, walked out of the office quickly, and beckoned his subordinates: "Go, go to the Shuncheng County Palace!" ”

……

Shuncheng County Mansion is Xu Shuzheng's mansion, when the Anhui Department was in power, it was one of the most lively places in Beijing, every day the gate was full of cars and horses, but now the door is cold, and there is not even a ghost shadow at the deserted gate.

The gendarmes drove to the gate of the palace, smashed the door directly and went in to search for Xu Shuzheng, the king was defeated, and the Xu family, who had unlimited scenery in the past, could only gather in the hall tremblingly to be inspected, only the nephew Xu Tingge was angry and loudly accused the gendarmes of violating human rights and violating the Constitution.

"Do you have a search warrant, do you have an arrest warrant, why do you break in! I'm going to Dali Yuan to sue you" Young Master Xu was heartened, and the gendarmes ignored him at all, and directly smashed the butt of a gun on the back of his head, and the whole world was quiet.

Shuncheng County Wangfu was searched to the bottom, and Xu Shuzheng's figure was still not found, according to his family's confession, Xu Shuzheng hid in the Six Nations Hotel in Dongjiaomin Lane early in the morning.

"Let's go!" Chen Zikun waved his hand and led the gendarmes away, leaving only the courtyard full of chaos.

Xu Tingge, who had a big pimple on his head, was helped up by the servant Xu Er, and scolded: "These robbers, rebels! ”

Xu Er hurriedly covered the young master's mouth: "Be quiet, they haven't gone far yet." ”

The master and servant didn't recognize it, and it was the old acquaintance Chen Zikun who led the troops to search the house.

……

Chen Zikun led the troops straight to Anfu Hutong, this time he finally didn't shoot in vain, and caught more than a dozen criminals on the list here, and then he took a squad of gendarmes to Yao Mansion.

Standing outside the big iron gate of the Yao Mansion, Chen Zikun was full of emotion, tidied up his military uniform, asked his subordinates to guard the door, and took Lao Wang Lao Li to knock on the door.

In the Yao Mansion, there was a mess, the bed was covered with soft things, gold bars and silver dollar jewelry, as well as countless silk cheongsams and fur coats, and a mouthful of leather boxes was opened and placed on the floor, and Mrs. Yao cried while cleaning up: "Why did you lose so quickly, didn't you say that Xu Shuzheng won the battle on the Eastern Front a few days ago." ”

Yao Cichang held an ivory cigarette holder in his mouth, paced restlessly, and suddenly stopped when he heard this: "The soldiers have no fighting spirit, how can they not be defeated, it's just that, the general trend has gone, it's too late to say anything, I said you should hurry up, so slow, Wu Peifu's soldiers and horses will be too late to enter the city." ”

As he was talking, a servant exclaimed from downstairs: "Master, there is a team of soldiers outside." ”

Deputy Chief Yao hurriedly ran to the window, and through the dense foliage, he could see that there was indeed a group of soldiers outside the courtyard, the color of their clothes was different from that of Xu Shuzheng's soldiers, and they all had military police armbands wrapped around their arms.

"Oh no, Wu Peifu has already entered the city." Vice Chief Yao threw the cigarette holder, didn't even have time to take the suit, hurriedly saw a few gold bars and a few pieces in the suitcase, grabbed it and pulled his wife to run downstairs, just ran downstairs, the door opened, a young officer walked in with two soldiers menacingly, the machete behind the soldier was as dazzling as blood, and the lady cried with a wow.

The suitcase in Yao's hand also fell to the ground, and he sat on the sofa dejectedly, a trace of hair fell on his forehead, and he felt out a cigarette to light it, but he wiped the match several times but it didn't catch it.

A lighter reached over and helped Mr. Yao light a cigarette.

Yao Cichang raised his head suspiciously, his eyes suddenly widened, "You...... How are you? ”

The lady who was squatting on the ground and wiping her tears also raised her head, and after seeing the person clearly, she suddenly said happily: "Xiao Chen, it's you." ”

Chen Zikun said: "Yes, it's me, is Yao Yilei there?" ”

Madame suddenly realized: "Lei Lei, she has been thinking about you, she cried the day she left, Xiao Chen, you and Uncle Yao have always been very in favor of your marriage, but there has been no news from you." ”

Chen Zikun said: "In the past year, I have written fifteen letters, haven't you received them? ”

Madame was speechless, of course the letter had been received, but she had instructed the porter to throw away all letters sent to Mademoiselle by inexplicable people.

When he was embarrassed, the servant Ah Fu quickly ran back to his room, took out a stack of envelopes, and said, "The letters are here." ”

Madame breathed a sigh of relief, secretly praised Ah Fu for being a caring person, and said: "Yes, yes, I instructed Ah Fu to keep all the letters and show them to her when Lei Lei comes back." ”

Chen Zikun naturally doesn't need to expose this kind of shoddy lie, he just cares about Yao Yilei's whereabouts: "Where is Miss Yao?" ”

"I'm coming back soon after studying in Japan." Madame replied cautiously.

Chen Zikun was silent for a while, and said: "I am the advance captain of the gendarme of the rebel army, and I came to arrest the national thief Yao Qizhen on the order of Marshal Wu, have you ever seen this person?" ”

Deputy Chief Yao's eyes widened in surprise, not understanding how Chen Zikun could say this. Madame reacted immediately, and said repeatedly: "I haven't seen it, I haven't seen it." ”

Chen Zikun continued: "Since the prisoners have escaped, let's withdraw!" ”

Lao Wang and Lao Li knew it, and he didn't say anything, and followed Chen Zikun out of the Yao Mansion.

Chen Zikun looked back at Yao Yilei's bedroom window on the second floor, and felt gloomy in his heart, I am afraid that this relationship is about to come to an end.
