It was not only a tank that came, but also three jeeps, a Dodge ten-wheeled truck, painted with white stars on the body, clearly the logo of the United States Army, and a group of soldiers sitting on the car, a water of American steel helmet boat-shaped hats, khaki uniforms and big leather boots, fortunately it was not American soldiers, but Chinese soldiers with American equipment, but this is scary enough, a full set of American uniforms, that is the elite of the party-state.

In fact, if you look closely, you can find that these GIs are two groups of people, one is the army armored troops, the other is the traffic police, the armored troops belong to the special forces, and the traffic police are also combat police, and they are not easy to mess with.

The policemen said in their hearts that this time they had encountered hard stubble, and the commander-in-chief of the scene, the captain of the mobile brigade, hurriedly stepped forward to negotiate, and at this time another master crawled out of the tank, scaring the captain into a spirit, damn, the tank driven by Jiang Ergongzi himself.

It was Jiang Weiguo who drove this tank, he usually acted in a low-key manner, not many people knew him, but the mobile brigade was a police officer adapted from a chariot regiment stationed in Wuxi, and the captain knew the second son when he was in the armored forces school, so he hurriedly stood up and saluted: "Sir, why are you here." ”

Jiang Weiguo said: "There is a misunderstanding here, let your brother put away the gun first." ”

The captain beckoned: "Take the guy." He was busy taking out his cigarette again, and was blocked back by Jiang Weiguo: "Do business first." ”

He and Liu Xiaoyong walked to the door of the Yangzi company's office and shouted, "Chen Bei, come out." ”

Chen Bei saw these two coming, he smiled, and was about to go out, when the policeman who made a detour from the back door came out, raised his gun and aimed at his back to pull the trigger, Chen Bei seemed to have eyes behind him, turned around suddenly, and the submachine gun splashed like a rain of bullets, the policemen jumped and jumped, like dead leaves in the wind, Chen Bei laughed and walked out with a smoking gun, the policemen touched their bodies, touched the bottom, and the parts were all there, so they breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out that the bullets were all under their feet.

The "hostage-taking" incident was resolved peacefully, but another case is still unsolved, and the police officers of the mobile brigade learned that the people of the Yang company had kidnapped "the American friend of the second son", and they were immediately filled with righteous indignation, and they all expressed their desire to vigorously assist, and the captain of the brigade said indignantly: "It must be a good thing done by the general manager of Xiaoxiao below with General Manager Kong behind his back, you can rest assured, I will interrogate." ”

The captain of the mobile brigade brought a few policemen into the company, and the matter was resolved in less than five minutes, saying that the company's Xiangli District Jinbao did bring a sack, and the sack seemed to contain a large number of people, but they had already changed to a box truck to go to the warehouse in the countryside of Huxi.

Everyone wondered, how could the mobile brigade handle the case so neatly, Jiang Weiguo explained everyone's doubts in one sentence, the flying fortress is specialized in handling co-spy cases, how can it be done without two brushes, everyone suddenly realized, the iron-mouthed and steel-toothed co-spy mouth can be pried open, and a few employees of the Yangzi company are estimated to be recruited without using means.

Chen Beidao: "Don't be verbose, hurry up and go to Huxi to save people." ”

The crowd responded.

Suddenly, the lights flashed in the crowd, and when they looked, it turned out to be Yan'er and Elizabeth, the latter holding a camera in his hand.

"Why are you here?" Chen Bei reproached.

Yanran changed her hunting outfit and carried a tiger head brand shotgun, which was estimated to be the heirloom of her mother Yao Yilei, and said with a heartfelt voice: "I'm going to save people, Elizabeth is a student of the journalism department, and it is rare to have such a good opportunity to follow up and interview." ”

"Alright, you can come along, but don't go any further." Chen Bei put on the majesty of his eldest brother, jumped into the jeep with a submachine gun in his hand, and Yan'er pulled Elizabeth into the car.

"Your brother is so handsome." Elizabeth whispered.

"That's right, my brother." Yan'er is very proud.

Jiang Weiguo and Liu Xiaoyong also got into the jeep and led the men and horses of the headquarters and the mobile brigade to kill in western Shanghai.

……

Nanjing, the Nationalist Government, Chairman Chiang is meeting with General Weidemeyer, the special representative of the US President, to discuss aid, and the State Government hopes that the United States will provide a loan of $1.5 billion to rebuild the people's livelihood and restore order in the country.

In the attendant's room, the phone rang suddenly, and a waiter answered the phone politely, and after hearing the other party speak English, he also changed to proficient English: "Sir, how can I help you?" ”

"This is the U.S. Embassy, I'm First Foreign Secretary Lawrence, and I have urgent matters to find Mr. Ambassador." The voice on the other end of the line was urgent.

"I'm sorry sir, the ambassador is in a meeting, please wait a while and call again." The attendants all had water in their eyes, knowing that this meeting was quite important, so they took the liberty of interrupting the thoughts that affected the commission, and they couldn't eat and walked around.

But Mr. Lawrence was very insistent, and he said in a tough tone: "Your name, sir, you must be prepared to be responsible for the rupture of Sino-US diplomatic relations!" ”

When it comes to the latter sentence, it is almost a roar.

A layer of cold sweat oozed from the waiter's forehead, and the matter was serious, he didn't dare to make the decision, but he didn't dare to break into the conference room, so he had to ask the secretary general, Chen Bui.

Chen Bui is a revolutionary old-timer, who served as deputy secretary general of the Political Conference of the Kuomintang Central Committee, director of the second division of Chiang Kai-shek's chamberlain, deputy director of the Central Propaganda Department, member of the Central Committee of the Kuomintang, and now acting secretary general of the Central Committee.

Soon Chen Bui came to answer the phone, Lao Chen is a graduate of Zhejiang Higher School, a talented man who is a child of the Eight Classics, and his English level is not to be said, when Mr. Sun Yat-sen drafted the "Foreign Declaration" in English on behalf of the provisional government, it was translated into Chinese by the young Chen Bui and first published in the "Tianduo Bao".

He picked up the phone and said a few words, his face changed, put the microphone on the table, walked quickly to the conference room, the attendant was dumbfounded, and whispered to his colleagues: "Mr. Chen's face is green." ”

Chen Bui came to the door of the conference room, and two personal guards in black tunics politely blocked him: "Is there something wrong with Mr. Chen?" ”

"Get out of the way!" Chen Bui, who has always been polite, knocked the guards away with one arm, pushed them with both hands, and the door of the conference room opened, and a cordial and friendly meeting was going on inside, interrupted by his sudden move, and everyone was stunned.

Chen Bui didn't care about that, walked quickly to Chiang Kai-shek's side, bowed his head and whispered in his ear: "Bench, President Truman's daughter was kidnapped in Shanghai!" ”

Chiang Kai-shek is a leader-level figure who has experienced a great turmoil, Mount Tai collapsed in front of him without changing his color, he still smiled on the surface, and his heart was already shocked, and now the Nationalist Government has a request for the United States, how to get on the pole is not too much, if there is a daughter, they are eager to get married, at this juncture, President Truman's daughter is tied up in China, which will put the Nationalist Government in an extremely embarrassing situation, and it will not be possible to directly affect the matter of large borrowing, without dollar borrowing, how to fight chaos, how to suppress the Communists, and if they do not suppress the Communists, The great country is about to be ruined!

In a flash of light, Chiang Kai-shek thought about a lot of things in his heart, and he asked in a low voice: "Is the news reliable?" ”

Chen Bui has been the secretary of the chairman of the committee for many years, how can he not understand his thoughts, the committee must be planning to take the means of concealing the world, he smiled bitterly: "Reliable, the embassy called to inform me." ”

At this time, Situ Leiden and Wei Demaier looked at each other and smiled, and said easily: "Your Excellency, if you have something important, we can rest for a while and talk about it." ”

Chiang Kai-shek said: "Mr. Ambassador, there is no need to evade, this matter is related to your country, just now the embassy called, saying that President Truman's daughter was kidnapped in Shanghai. ”

Situ Leiden laughed: "It must be a prank, Mary is studying at Harvard, how can she appear in Shanghai." ”

General Weidemeyer's face was a little ugly: "John, Mary came to China with me, and she is indeed in Shanghai. ”

Situ Leiden's smile froze on his face, and he turned his head and asked Chiang Kai-shek: "Your Excellency, I ask you to rescue Mary immediately in your personal name, otherwise it will be difficult for Wei Demaier and I to explain to her father." ”

Chiang Kai-shek said in his heart that I am more anxious than you, and that the daughter of the President of the United States is the princess of the United States, and that I am the chairman of the committee who cannot escape the blame for the accident in China, and although I am anxious in my heart, I have maintained my composure and demeanor on the surface, and he immediately said that I will rescue Miss Truman in the shortest possible time.

Chiang Kai-shek immediately took command and ordered Wu Guozhen, mayor of Shanghai, and the Beijing-Shanghai-Hangzhou Garrison Command to mobilize all forces at all costs to rescue Miss Mary Truman, and to keep it secret.

When Wu Guozhen received a phone call from the chairman of the NPC Standing Committee himself, he felt that his brain was a little confused, and he couldn't sort it out for a while, why were there so many big cases today, first the Air Force hijacked Yangzi Company, and then the US president's daughter was kidnapped, and he quickly called the police chief and asked him to solve the case quickly.

The police chief is also big, and there are no clues, how to solve the case.

So the police station called Wu Guozhen again and asked for clues to solve the case, such as who reported the case and where he was tied up, Wu Guozhen heard yes, how to solve the case without clues, and called Nanjing again, and the attendant room also woke up when he heard it, the case was reported by the embassy by phone, and they must have clues.

In this way, back and forth, everyone was in a mess, and even the most basic things were forgotten to ask, but finally got an effective clue, Miss Mary Truman was kidnapped by unknown people in her room at the Shanghai International Hotel, after Miss Mary's companion had a quarrel with someone claiming to be a Yang Company on the Bund and lost the key, and there is reason to believe that the kidnapping was related to Yang Company.

……

Shanghai, Huxi villa area, the so-called warehouse of the Yangzi company is located here, which was originally a big official of the puppet government to buy another business, covering an area of dozens of acres, and was later "received" by the Confucian family, turned into the industry of the Yangzi company, the outside circle is surrounded by a high wall, the power grid is pulled, the yard raises more than a dozen fierce dogs, and a large number of bodyguards, equipped with American-style submachine guns, and the defense is tight, and ordinary people can't get in at all.

Chen Bei and his party came here in a murderous manner, the big iron door was closed, a policeman came forward and knocked on the door, the doorman opened a small window, and asked vigilantly: "Which one are Nong looking for?" ”

The policeman said: "The police handle the case, open the door quickly." ”

The doorman shouted: "This is the warehouse of the Yang company, Nong doesn't know!" ”

The bodyguard at the gate made a phone call inside, and Miss Kong Er heard that the police had come to the door, so she disdained: "Dare to break into my territory, shoot me, and the sky will fall and Mr. Er will stand up to you." ”

The bodyguards were emboldened and opened fire brazenly, and the policeman who knocked on the door was caught off guard and killed on the spot.

A shootout began.
