Chapter 60: There will be a period later
Although Xing'er is a woman, she also understands what happens when she is a prisoner, but the sudden change made her stand unsteady and leaned against the door frame.
Chen Zikun picked up Xing'er and said in a low voice: "It's okay, it's Wang Dongliang who leads the team." ”
"It's a pillar." Apricot was a little relieved.
"Can I still use my phone at home?" Chen Zikun looked left and right.
"Maybe it's okay, anyway, if you don't pay the money, Baoqing will put a box on the thing, and I'll take you there." Xing'er cheered up and took Chen Zikun to the living room of the inverted room, where there was a wooden box on the table with a hand-cranked phone.
Chen Zikun knew that Feng Yuxiang had just occupied Beijing, and there were many things that he had not had time to do, such as telephone monitoring and the like, and it should be safe to make phone calls now, but after he shook it violently, there was no sound on the phone at all.
Presumably when the Nationalist Army entered Beijing last night, the telephone lines in the whole city were cut, and they have not been restored, this is bad, the plan must be modified, Chen Zikun rolled his eyes, saw the empty car in the yard, and said: "Find a reliable person to help me deliver a letter." ”
Xing'er said: "No problem, Zhang Daniu will do." ”
Zhang Daniu was squatting in the yard to eat, and when he heard Xing'er shouting, he quickly wiped his hands and came over, and saw Chen Zikun sitting in the living room, and was immediately stunned: "Big boss, when did you arrive?" ”
Chen Zikun just finished writing two letters and handed them to Zhang Daniu and said: "This one was sent to Chen Mansion in Dongwenchang Hutong, and this one was sent to Yao Mansion near Zhaojialou, understand?" ”
"Come on, I promise you'll do it properly." Zhang Daniu held the letter in his arms, picked up the empty car and went out, and met Wang Dongliang, the two were old acquaintances, and they met and greeted.
"Dongliang, busy?"
"Yes, stand guard for Chen Dashuai, where is the big cow?"
"Get out of the car, and bring two letters to the marshal."
"You're busy, see you later."
"See you later."
Zhang Daniu ran away with the cart, and Wang Dongliang called over the two sturdy young soldiers: "You two, follow the one who pulls the cart and see where he goes." ”
Two soldiers followed.
……
In the evening, Zhang Daniu came back from the car and replied with Jianbing's English handwriting, saying that Yao Yilei had come, but she didn't plan to leave her husband and run away, and the guards were ready to go out of the city at any time.
Yao's mansion did not reply, and it is said that Yao's family has moved to Dongjiaomin Lane.
Chen Zikun had already changed his clothes, and the lieutenant general's uniform was too eye-catching to escape, so he made a blue cloth short fight, and stuffed a white hand towel around his waist, which looked like a foreign cart.
Calling Baoqing and Xing'er to him, Chen Zikun advised: "I'm afraid that the capital will be chaotic for a while, you should be careful yourself, after I leave, you will tell Wang Dongliang early tomorrow morning, he will not embarrass you." ”
Xing'er burst into tears: "This time, I don't know when I will see you again." ”
Baoqing said: "Da Kunzi, you can go without worry, don't worry about us." ”
Chen Zikun said: "Without further ado, farewell!" ”
Suddenly the phone rang, Chen Zikun hesitated for a moment and answered, thinking it was Yao Yilei calling, but Feng Yuxiang's voice came from the earpiece.
"Brother, I'm afraid that your guards will do something stupid on the spur of the moment and confiscate their guns, so you won't blame me."
Chen Zikun's heart sank, and he said: "Commander-in-chief, even if you want to work side by side with me to eradicate the warlords, you have to wait for me to return to Jiangdong to discuss it, I am alone in Beijing, and I can't help you much." ”
Feng Yuxiang said: "Cao Kun has abdicated, the cabinet has resigned, we all elected Huang Yin for the position of temporary acting prime minister, and the War Department still lacks a deputy minister, I think you are the most suitable, don't worry, you still hold the position of Jiangdong Provincial Military Affairs Supervisor, I just want you to send a telegram and tell the world that you Chen Kunshuai supports my old Feng." ”
Chan said, "Let me think about it. ”
Feng Yuxiang said with a smile: "The revolution waits for no one, I'll give you three days to think about it, so be it." ”
Chen Zikun put down the phone, and Baoqing and his family looked at him blankly.
"I can't go." Chen Zikun said calmly.
Suddenly, the phone rang again, and I picked it up again, this time it was Jianbing's voice: "I'm looking for Chen Zikun." ”
"I am."
"Thank God, the phone finally got through, are you okay, more than a hundred soldiers came in the afternoon and gave Zhao Yufeng their guns, what should I do now?" Jian Bing's voice trembled a little.
"I'm fine, how are you, the brothers are all right."
"We're all fine, but the soldiers are still around the house, and we're not allowed to go in or out."
"Don't be afraid, their target is me, you wait patiently, or it will be fine in a few days."
Putting down the phone, Chen Zikun sighed: "Go back to sleep." ”
……
After three days like this, all the outside information was cut off, and even the newspapers couldn't be seen, Chen Zikun was like sitting on pins and needles, and he was under house arrest in Beijing, Jiangdong must have known that Yan Su and others had not yet gained a stable foothold, Sun Kaiqin's remnants still had a lot of strength, and Mai Zilong, the director of the police department, was also eyeing him, and he would give it to others if he couldn't do it.
However, it is really against his conscience to agree to Feng Yuxiang's request, although Feng Yuxiang's starting point for launching the mutiny is also a last resort, and if he changes his position, he will give it a go in order to protect himself, but this will only cause greater evil consequences and chaos.
Three days later, Feng Yuxiang called again, still full of enthusiasm: "Brother, I have good news for you, our department fought fiercely with Wu Peifu in Yang Village, fought a winning battle, surrounded Wu Xiaogui'er, and it was a matter of time before he was killed." ”
Chen Zikun said: "Commander-in-chief, I have a word of advice, you can listen to it, or you don't listen." ”
"You say."
"Don't rush to kill them all, leave Wu Yushuai a way to live, otherwise the Feng army will be dominant, and it will not end well in the future."
"I understand...... Have you thought about the electrification thing? ”
"Forgive me, please forgive the commander-in-chief."
"Brother, you are really stubborn, okay, I'll leave you for a while, after Mr. Sun goes north to preside over the overall situation, the whole country will usher in a new situation, and then let the facts speak, I don't believe you don't cooperate."
……
From that day on, the telephone line of the Ziguang Depot was cut off, but Chen Zikun made correspondence with Jianbing and Yao Yilei, and the letters were sent through the dungmen who came to clean the manure pits of the thatched houses every day, and were sent to Jianbing in Dongwenchang Hutong and Yao Yilei in the Six Nations Hotel through Yindeshun.
Although the news was deliberately blocked by the national army, the foreigners in Dongjiaomin Lane had their own news channels, and I heard that Feng Yuxiang felt that it was difficult to support himself, and he had invited Duan Qirui, who lived in Tianjin, to go out of the mountain, and the Feng army, who had always promised not to enter the customs, also drove a large army into Shanhaiguan, and what made Chen Zikun most anxious was the news from Jiangdong Province, Sun Kaiqin had a resurgence and actually planned to go out of the mountain.
If you don't leave, it's really late, Chen Zikun has been planning for several days, and finally came up with a strange plan.
It was already the beginning of November, the weather in Beijing was getting cold, and the surveillance troops guarding outside the Ziguang Depot had not yet changed into winter clothes, squatting all day long at the root of the hutong wall and shivering under the sun.
At noon on this day, the dung man pulled a dung truck with iron sheets to clean again, advanced to the back house of the depot, came out after ten minutes, and shoveled a few shovels in the official thatched house in the alley, pulled up the dung truck and left.
"Wait." Wang Dongliang stopped the dung truck, and he found that this car was different from the dung truck that had come before.
"Boss, what's the matter?" The dung man asked with a smile, but his eyes were visibly nervous.
Wang Dongliang walked around the dung truck with the shell gun and waved his hand to let him go.
The dung man was relieved, pulled up the car and left, and just walked a dozen steps away, he heard a shout from behind: "Stop." ”
The dung man was agitated, but he still stood still.
"There will be a date later!" Wang Dongliang shouted for no reason.
……
More than a dozen dung trucks loaded with dung left the city from Yongdingmen, which was the convoy of the Yuji manure factory, which had to transport fertilizer to the countryside every month, but this time the time was slightly advanced by a few days, and the soldiers guarding the gate did not bother to check the stinky dung trucks, and let them go without looking.
Not far from the city gate, the convoy stopped, and the dung king Yu Deshun personally walked to a car, unloaded the plank, opened the mezzanine, and Chen Zikun climbed out of it.
"Oops, it's suffocating me." Although the mezzanine is clean, there is still a lot of odor on the body.
"Brother, change your clothes." Yu Deshun presented the clothes prepared by Jianbing, who was thoughtful, afraid that Chen Zikun would wear too dazzling, so he specially prepared a set of outdated old suits and old leather shoes.
Chen Zikun returned his clothes and hugged his fist at Yu Deshun: "Thank you for the rescue." ”
Yu Deshun said: "The handsome man asked me to help me because I can afford me Yu Deshun, and stick a knife in the ribs for my friend, which is what people in our rivers and lakes should do." ”
Chen Zikun nodded vigorously: "There will be a period later!" Then he left in great strides, walked more than a dozen steps away, and returned to the majestic Beijing city wall, and his heart couldn't help but be sad.
A car was parked on the side of the road in front of her, and when she saw Chen Zikun coming, Yao Yilei opened the car door and said, "Get in the car." ”
Chen Zikun hurriedly got into the car, and the driver Ah Fu started the ignition, stepped on the accelerator, and galloped south along the dusty road, heading straight for Tianjin.
In the evening of the same day, the car arrived at the Tianjin wharf, which had been occupied by the Nationalist Army, and for fear of attracting attention, Chen Zikun bought a third-class ticket, returned to the car and asked again: "You really don't go with me?" ”
Yao Yilei said: "Jiangdong is not very peaceful, I am afraid that going will drag you down, besides, I am pregnant, I can't withstand the bumps of the journey, after all, the Six Nations Hotel is the territory of foreigners, and the national army will not go in to arrest people no matter how bold they are." ”
Chen Zikun was reluctant, but Yao Yilei smiled heartily: "My man is 90,000 miles Kunpeng, how can he be so petty, do you remember five years ago, he was also at the Tianjin wharf, and he was also driving by Afu, and it was also such a scene, what did you say?" ”
"The seven-foot body has promised the country, and it is difficult to promise the king." Chen Zikun replied in a low voice.
"Go ahead, Jianbing and I will be fine, we still have children, waiting for you in Beijing." Yao Yilei hugged Chen Zikun hard, turned back to the car, closed the door and didn't look at him again.
Chen Zikun took a deep breath, picked up his luggage and resolutely walked towards the dock, with the blood-colored sun behind him.
