Chapter Fifty-Four: Takeo Flying Goes Deep into the Military Factory

On the morning of the next day, Wu Xiongfei took out one of the "May Fourth," "June Fourth," and hid one of his revolvers on his body, went into the city, and went to the Jiangzhou Public Security Bureau to report to the "Special Case Group for the Sale of Firearms" (Wu Xiongfei and Liu Rongsheng are now directly under the leadership of the "Special Case Group for the Sale and Sale of Firearms." The special case group is set up in the Public Security Bureau, and the leader of the group is Director Long Tiangang, and the two deputy team leaders -- Tong Hualong, head of the 221st Regiment, and An Jian, chief of the Criminal Investigation Section, are specifically responsible) They reported in detail that they had met Wang Bin, the worst cadre of the former "National Salvation Association," at the "Rugui Hotel," and Wang Bin helped them buy three "May Fourth," three "June Fourth," and four revolvers, with an average price of 400 yuan each. But the quality is rough, it is likely that it is a "homegrown" product from a small factory, or even that Wang Bin runs an "underground military factory" and so on. He also took out a "May Fourth" type, a "June Fourth" type, and a revolver, and handed it over to the "Special Task Force for Buying and Selling Firearms."

Tong Hualong, head of the regiment, and chief of the safety and health section highly praised and congratulated Comrades Wu Xiongfei and Liu Rongsheng for achieving such great results in such a short period of time. When the two deputy team leaders looked at the shoddy guns, they thought that Takeofei's analysis was very reasonable—these guns must have been produced by a small underground factory! Wang Bin is likely to be the person in charge of the underground military factory, at least an important role in the underground military factory-Chief Tong and Section Chief An immediately brought Wu Xiongfei to Director Long Tiangang's office.

Director Long Tiangang warmly received Wu Xiongfei and analyzed and studied the next action plan together - let Wu Xiongfei and Liu Rongsheng act like this.

Director Long Tiangang asked Tong Hualong, the head of the regiment, and the head of the safety and health section to send Takeo to the door of the Public Security Bureau all the way before shaking hands affectionately and saying goodbye.

Takeo flew back to the "Homecoming Hotel" and informed Liu Rongsheng of the research decision of the leaders of the "Firearms Trading Task Force," and the two were ready to act according to the plan.

That night, Wang Bin came to the "Rugui Hotel" as promised and bought food and drinks. Invite Wu Xiongfei and Liu Rongsheng to room 203 and greet the two.

"Brother Wu, Brother Liu! I was delayed last night because I got the goods! Let the two brothers wait for a long time, and today I have come to compensate the two of you. ”

"Hmmm! Yes, you should pay for it! If you are so untrustworthy in the first dealing, who will do business with you in the future? "Takeo Fei" is "unyielding", posing as a big money that "has money and can't buy goods".

"A drunken enmity! I'll say hello with a drink today, so don't worry about it anymore! Wang Bin greeted sincerely.

"That's right! Brother Wang is right! A wine and revenge! We will cooperate sincerely in the future! Liu Rongsheng also pretended to ignore his previous suspicions.

"Since you've all said so. I don't want to say much; So let's have a sip of enmity today! Drink him and get drunk! Takeshi Fei also said that he would give up his past suspicions and not care.

After a few glasses of wine, Takeo Fei, who was overwhelmed by alcohol, first "drunk" and said "wine talk":

"Fuck! You...... You, Wang Bin, are really not a thing! I...... I asked you to buy a hundred pistols, you ...... You only got me ten; Resemble...... Like this, when will I be able to recruit troops to be commanders? ”

"Brother Wu, don't be in a hurry, there are guns and ammunition, I'll keep getting them for you!"

"What keep getting me? I need 200 long and short guns and 4,000 rounds of ammunition now, and I will be the commander now! Fight to the death with the communist army! ”

"You need so many guns and ammunition at once, and we don't have time to produce them!" I don't know if it was Wang Bin's slip of the tongue. Still had a sense of wine, and he actually said "We don't have time to produce" when he said it.

"You don't have time to produce, then we'll help you produce." Liu Rongsheng, who was already "half drunk", grabbed the conversation and didn't let go.

"No, no, no! We don't produce these things! Wang Bin knew that he had missed his mouth, so he hurriedly took back his words.

"Fuck! You...... You guy! You...... You're kidding us, aren't you? I...... I'm going to make a bully today...... Overlord hard bow, one ...... Be sure to help you give birth...... Production of firearms and ammunition. The "drunk" Takeo Fei said as he reached out and grabbed Wang Bin's collar.

"Good, good! Since Brother Wu has the heart to help, then I have to wait until I go back and report to the boss before I can make a decision! ”

"What...... Why go back and report to your boss before you can make a decision? You...... Aren't you the boss? The drunken Takeo Fei refused to let go.

"How can I afford to be the boss with such a big job? I'm just an errand boy. ”

"That'...... So who's the boss? Wu Xiongfei's eyes glared at Wang Bin angrily, and the hand that tugged at the collar was even harder!

"Hey...... Brother Wu, you let go of your hand and let me speak slowly. Wang Bin knew that he couldn't say it!

"Gu ...... The specific situation is like this...... "Wang Bin, who drank too much, put him in the lobby of the original "Salvation Congress". With Cheng Zhou, the plenipotentiary commissioner of the Jiangzhou Station of the Secrecy Bureau, hijacked Long Tiangang and escaped by jumping into the water on the East China Sea. Let's come to Sanliwa on the north bank of the Danjiang River. Later, Xue Shan, the former head of the Jiangzhou Station of the Secrecy Bureau, also came to Sanliwa and established the "Anti-Communist National Salvation Army" in Sanliwa as a new anti-communist base. Xue Shan served as the commander of the "Anti-Communist National Salvation Army", and Cheng Zhou served as the chief of staff of the "Anti-Communist National Salvation Army"; He, Wang Bin, also became a lieutenant and deputy battalion commander of the "Anti-Communist National Salvation Army".

According to the instructions of the upper peak, the "Anti-Communist National Salvation Army" should recruit troops and buy horses while engaging in sabotage activities and counterrevolutionary rebellion; and the construction of underground military factories. production of firearms and ammunition; Sell it cheaply to the local ruffians and lawbreakers in the society, and let them riot the social order in Jiangzhou; Let the people of Jiangzhou be terrified all day long, and let the new regime not be at peace.

This time, the "anti-communist National Salvation Army" people saw a notice posted by the 221st Regiment of the 147th Brigade in Jiangzhou City, saying that they would offer a heavy reward for the arrest of soldiers Wu Xiongfei and Liu Rongsheng of the 2nd Company of the 221st Regiment of the 147th Brigade, who had stolen gold bars.

Later, I heard about Room 202 of the "Homecoming Inn". There are two people who eat big meat and fish, good wine and smoke every day; He also said that he would prepare to recruit troops, buy guns and ammunition, and fight against the PLA; It is estimated that it is Wu Xiongfei and Liu Rongsheng.

After Commander Xue Shan heard these news, he asked Wang Bin to come to the "Rugui Hotel", stayed in room 203, and contacted Wu Xiongfei and Liu Rongsheng; Selling arms to Wu Xiongfei and Liu Rongsheng and supporting their anti-communism.

Therefore, if Wu Xiongfei and Liu Rongsheng want to help with production in an underground military factory (to participate in the "Anti-Communist National Salvation Army"), Wang Bin must report to his boss, Commander Xue Shan, before he can decide.

Wu Xiongfei and Liu Rongsheng listened to Wang Bin's words, and they were overjoyed; But it is said that he understands. and asked Wang Bin to help them enter the "Anti-Communist National Salvation Army" as soon as possible and oppose the Communist Party together; Wang Bin readily agreed.

Originally, it was "a thousand cups of wine for a confidant", but Takeo Fei, who heard important information, said that he couldn't drink anymore! then they will rest at a break; Back to room 202.

The stakes are huge! Wu Xiongfei waited until the next morning, after Wang Bin left room 203, he hurried into the city and came to the Jiangzhou Public Security Bureau. reported to Director Long Tiangang, head of Tong Hualong, and chief of the safety and health section, that Xue Shan, the former head of the Jiangzhou Station of the Secrecy Bureau, established the "Anti-Communist National Salvation Army" in Sanliwa and served as the commander; Cheng Zhou served as chief of staff of the "Anti-Communist National Salvation Army"; Wang Bin also became a lieutenant and deputy battalion commander of the "Anti-Communist National Salvation Army". These people recruit troops and buy horses while engaging in sabotage activities and counter-revolutionary rebellions; and build underground military factories to produce guns and ammunition, which are sold cheaply to local ruffians and lawbreakers in society; Let them riot the social order in Jiangzhou, and let the people of Jiangzhou panic all day long. Let the new regime not be at peace. and he and Liu Rongsheng asked Wang Bin for help to let them join the "Anti-Communist National Salvation Army" and other situations.

Director Long Tiangang immediately instructed: First let Wu Xiongfei and Liu Rongsheng break into the "anti-communist National Salvation Army" and explain to Xue Shan, commander of the "anti-communist National Salvation Army," that they will also recruit some former "National Salvation Army" people to join the "Anti-Communist National Salvation Army." In fact, it is to strengthen the strength of Wu Xiongfei and Liu Rongsheng and infiltrate the "anti-communist National Salvation Army."

Takeo was instructed to return to the "Homecoming Hotel" immediately.

On the third day, Wang Bin came to room 202 of the "Homecoming Hotel". Good news to Wu Xiongfei and Liu Rongsheng: Commander Xue has agreed to join the "Anti-Communist National Salvation Army".

In the evening, Wang Bin took Wu Xiongfei and Liu Rongsheng to Sanliwa on the north bank of the Danjiang River. Jin met Xue Shan, commander of the "Anti-Communist National Salvation Army".

When Wu Xiongfei and Liu Rongsheng saw Commander Xue, they took the initiative to present four gold bars as a meeting gift, and said that they would recruit some people from the former "National Salvation Association" to join the "Anti-Communist National Salvation Army." Xue Shan was very happy, and immediately appointed Wu Xiongfei and Liu Rongsheng as lieutenants and deputy battalion commanders; After recruiting some former "National Salvation Army" members to join the "Anti-Communist National Salvation Army," they will be promoted.

Wu Xiongfei and Liu Rongsheng, who became deputy battalion commanders, went to various places in Sanliwa to "familiarize themselves with the situation" and then had a clear understanding of Sanliwa's geographical location and topography.

Not a day. Deputy Battalion Commander Wu Xiongfei made it clear to Commander Xue Shan: He wants to go to Jiangzhou to try to win over some people from the former "National Salvation Association" to join the "Anti-Communist National Salvation Army"; Commander Xue immediately approved.

Wu Xiongfei came to Jiangzhou City, went around three times and went around to the Public Security Bureau, and reported to the "Gun Trading Task Force" that he and Liu Rongsheng had entered the "Anti-Communist National Salvation Army" and became a lieutenant and deputy battalion commander; The topography of Sanliwa was also observed; And explained that it was approved by Xue Shan to come out today. to win over some former "National Salvation Association" people to join the "Anti-Communist National Salvation Army."

Tong Hualong, deputy head of the "Gun Buying and Selling Task Force," immediately handed over the six people who had been prepared, including Gao Neng and Xiao Yao, to Wu Xiongfei and asked him to take them to Sanliwa to join the "Anti-Communist National Salvation Army" to assist Wu Xiongfei in his work. It was agreed that at 5 a.m. on the day after tomorrow, that is, on 18 October 1949, the reactionary organization of the "Anti-Communist National Salvation Army" in Sanliwa would be eliminated. In order to grasp the development of the situation, it was said that Takeo would fly to the Public Security Bureau tomorrow, that is, on the afternoon of October 17, 1949, to exchange information.

Wu Xiongfei bid farewell to the leaders of the task force, returned to Sanliwa with Gao Neng and other six people, and returned to Commander Xue Shan.

"Commander Xue! Due to the rush of time, I have only conspired against six people to come to you today. Wu Xiongfei said, handing over Gao Neng and the other six to Xue Shan.

"Commander Wu! Where did you go today to plot against these six people? Xue Shan's eyes flashed fiercely at Wu Xiongfei.

"I'll ...... Go to the communist barracks to plot against them! Takeo Fei was caught off guard, he didn't expect Xue Shan to ask him this question, and he didn't speak very sharply for a while.

"You went to the communist barracks to plot against them? I'm afraid I went to the Jiangzhou Public Security Bureau to plot against them! ”

"No......" Takeo Fei was speechless for a while.

"Someone! Tie these seven men up for me! ”

With Xue Shan's order, more than two dozen minions rushed up and tied up Wu Xiongfei and Gao Neng and the other six people; Only then did Wu Xiongfei see that Liu Rongsheng was no longer in the crowd - he had already been arrested.

It turned out that when Takeo Fei reported to Commander Xue Shan that he wanted to go to Jiangzhou to recruit some people from the former "National Salvation Association" to join the "Anti-Communist National Salvation Army", the suspicious and deceitful Xue Shan sent two henchmen to follow Takeo Fei. When the stalker saw Wu Xiongfei enter the Jiangzhou Public Security Bureau, he knew that the situation was not good, so he asked one person to come back first to report to Commander Xue; Xue Shan immediately arrested Liu Rongsheng for interrogation. Liu Rongsheng insisted that he had been dismissed from the second platoon of the third company of the second battalion of the 221st regiment and was ready to buy guns and ammunition. Recruit troops, be the king of grass, and fight against the communist army. Xue Shan will be skeptical.

When another minion came back to report that Wu Xiongfei had brought six people from the Public Security Bureau to Sanliwa, Xue Shan was even more suspicious of Wu Xiongfei! Therefore, as soon as Takeo Fei returned, Xue Shan ordered Takeo Fei and Gao Neng and the other six people to be tied up. Takeo Fei, who had stabilized himself, shouted that he was wronged.

There are two "reasons" for Takeo Fei to cry out for wrongdoing:

1. The six people he plotted against were all former members of the "National Salvation Association." If you don't believe it, you can let Wang Bin identify it.

2. The reason why Gao Neng and the other six people are in the Public Security Bureau is that they have just been transferred from the 221st Regiment to the Public Security Bureau as miscellaneous personnel on duty, so as to grasp the inside situation of the Public Security Bureau and wait for an opportunity to engage in sabotage activities.

Takeshio Fei also said that there is no doubt in employing people, and there is no need to use suspicious people. It seems that Commander Xue doesn't believe in people, which makes him very chilled. Since he is not worried about him like this, he will not want the four gold bars that he Wu Xiongfei gave to Commander Xue! I only asked Commander Xue to sell him a batch of guns and ammunition, so that he could recruit troops and horses to be the commander. In the future, it is better to fight the People's Liberation Army to avenge the expulsion.

Wu Xiongfei's "generous speech" made Commander Xue Shan, Chief of Staff Cheng Zhou and other "soldiers" inconsistent: some people think that Wu Xiongfei is strong words and clever quibbles; Some people say that Takeo Fei is loyal, and his feelings are commendable; Some people also feel that although Wu Xiongfei is not very credible, at this time of employing people, he can't just drive away the birds for the cong and the fish for the yuan, and drive such people to the side of the communist army - it is better to "control the use" - Commander Xue Shan accepted the last opinion - release Liu Rongsheng, Wu Xiongfei and Gao Neng and other six people. "Control the use" of them.

Takeo Fei, who had survived his life, conveyed to Liu Rongsheng the instructions of the "Gun Trading Task Force" that at 5 a.m. on 18 October 1949, the "Anti-Communist National Salvation Army" was to be terminated by the reactionary organization "Anti-Communist National Salvation Army." Let Liu Rongsheng and Gao Neng and the other six people make all preparations.

On the afternoon of October 17, 1949. It was when Takeo Fei went to the Public Security Bureau to exchange information as agreed. But because he (the eight of them) is a "control and use" person, there are people around him at all times, and there must be no abnormal behavior - Takeo Fei really can't find a reason to get out.

Takeo Fei really couldn't get out of his body, and he didn't get the public security bureau to exchange information; This can make Director Long Tiangang, Head Tong Hualong, Chief of Safety and Health and others die in a hurry!

Twilight is four, night falls; Takeo Fei still didn't arrive.

Eight o'clock in the evening.

Ten o'clock in the evening.

Twelve o'clock in the evening.

One o'clock in the morning.

Two o'clock in the morning.

Three o'clock in the morning.

……

Wu Xiongfei never came back - Director Long Tiangang, head Tong Hualong, and chief of the safety and health section were very anxious; Takeo Fei and the other eight people were even more anxious.

Takeo Fei didn't come back to exchange the situation, it is likely that something went wrong! So how are the eight of them doing now? The time for the battle has been set! Is the battle still going to be fought at five in the morning?

"Hit! Fight resolutely! Hit with caution! It is necessary to defeat the reactionary clique of the 'anti-communist National Salvation Army'. It is also necessary to ensure the safety of the lives of Takeo Fei and the other eight people. The commander-in-chief of the operation, Director Long Tiangang, resolutely decided.

At about 4 o'clock in the morning of October 18, 1949, most of the cadres and policemen of the Public Security Bureau and more than 1,000 officers and men of the 221st Regiment quietly marched towards Sanliwa. Four galleons also headed for the lower sea of the Danjiang River and the sea.

At five o'clock in the morning, a red flare pierced the pre-dawn darkness and drew a brilliant arc of light on the inky sky—the order to begin the battle.

More than 1,000 officers and soldiers of the 221st Regiment and officers and police officers of the Public Security Bureau. The Sanliwa was so flooded that not a single rat could escape.

The officers and soldiers and police officers gradually contracted the encirclement and quietly killed the two minions standing guard.

The autumn wind is stiff, and the cold is invading. The minions of the "Anti-Communist National Salvation Army" were still huddled in the quilt and dreaming their own sweet dreams and nightmares, and they were blocked in the barracks by our officers and soldiers and police officers who fell from the sky.

"Shoot or kill! Surrender or kill! There is no mercy for those who resist! ”

In the majestic shouts of the officers and soldiers and the police officers, the minions were arrested one by one; There were also a few minions who wanted to fight to the death, but they were surrounded by eight people who slept in the middle because of surveillance, including Wu Xiongfei, Liu Rongsheng, and Gao Neng, confiscated their guns from inside.

The minions in the barracks were all dealt with without bloodshed, but Xue Shan, commander of the "Anti-Communist National Salvation Army," Cheng Zhou, chief of staff, and their henchmen and bodyguards lived in the "headquarters" with "strong barriers."

Wu Xiongfei and Liu Rongsheng, who were more familiar with the terrain, led the way in front, and Gao Neng and the other six people followed closely behind, approaching the "headquarters" step by step.

The noise in the barracks had already alarmed the sentries at the entrance of the "headquarters", and the sentries hurried inside to report to Commander Xue Shan that the situation had changed. Commander Xue Shan asked the sentinels to resist the PLA. While packing up the documents and being soft, he escaped from the tunnel with Cheng Zhou's chief of staff and other henchmen and bodyguards - this is Cheng Zhou's masterpiece - last time he was besieged by the People's Liberation Army in the "Salvation Association", and was almost captured, only because he kidnapped Long Tiangang for threat, so he fled for his life. Therefore, after he settled down in Sanliwa this time, he "took precautions". Dig the tunnels you need to escape one day; Now it really comes in handy.

Wu Xiongfei and Liu Rongsheng, who had not been in the "Anti-Communist National Salvation Army" for a long time, did not know that there were tunnels in the "headquarters," and the officers and men who rushed into the "headquarters" searched twice but did not find Xue Shan, Cheng Zhou, and their group.

"Wu ...... Commander of the Martial Battalion ......"

Wu Xiongfei, Liu Rongsheng, Gao Neng and others were searching closely, and suddenly heard someone shouting intermittently for the commander of the Wu battalion - following the reputation, they saw Wu Yan, the adjutant of Commander Xue Shan, falling to the ground and shouting.

"Adjutant Wu! What's wrong with you? Takeo Fei and the others asked puzzled.

"I ...... Because I told them to surrender to you, Commander Xue was about to shoot me, but fortunately I hid quickly and they were busy fleeing for their lives, so I was not killed. But he was shot in the leg and couldn't run. ”

"Then where did Xue Shan and Cheng Zhou go?" Wu Xiongfei was anxious to arrest Xue Shan and Cheng Zhou, and he didn't care about comforting and praising Wu Yan, and only asked about the whereabouts of Xue Shan and Cheng Zhou.

"They've escaped from the tunnels!"

"Authentic? Where are the tunnels? ”

"The tunnel entrance is next to the manure pit behind that toilet." Wu Yan pointed to the toilet not far away.

"Good! You have a good rest, and someone will come to your rescue immediately; We went to chase Xue Shan and Cheng Zhou, and when someone came, you told everyone, and said that we went to the tunnel. Wu Xiongfei said, and took Liu Rongsheng, Gao Neng and others to the back of the toilet.

Takeo Fei and eight others found the entrance to the tunnel under a thick wooden board next to the dung pit behind the toilet. Immediately jump down and chase along the tunnels. However, they chased it all the way to the exit of the tunnel. There was no trace of Xue Shan, Cheng Zhou and his group.

Is Wu Yan playing tricks on us? Or did Xue Shan, Cheng Zhou and a group flee to the sea?

Takeo Fei hurriedly contacted the officers and men on the sailing ship on the sea. The officers and men on the sailing boat said that they had been watching everything on the shore and water with wide eyes, and that they had not seen any Kuomintang officers and soldiers escaping from here. Only twenty or thirty fishermen were found, carrying two fishing boats with fishing nets, and drove away at full speed south!

"Not good! How can fishermen who go out to sea get up so early, and how can fishing boats go so fast? This must be Xue Shan, Cheng Zhou and a group of people who escaped in disguise! Fly! Hurry up and get on board! Four sailboats obey the order: full speed ahead! Chase those two fishing boats! "The commander of the newly formed 147th Brigade, who personally supervised the battle on the sailing ship, made a decisive pursuit order. Takeo Fei and the others quickly jumped onto the sailboat.

Not bad! The commander of the Snow Leopard Brigade estimated not bad at all - the officers and men of the four sailing boats of our army guarding and patrolling the lower sea and the sea of the Danjiang River. At about half past five in the morning, I saw twenty or thirty fishermen, carrying two fishing boats with fishing nets, and drove away at full speed south! That is the two fishing boats that Xue Shan, Cheng Zhou and his gang used two motorboats (refitted) to disguise.

The north wind howled, the machines roared – the wind was full of sails. The boat is at full speed! After only a short while, the commander of the snow leopard brigade and the captains of the four sailing boats saw two small black dots from the telescope—those were the two fishing boats disguised by Xue Shan, Cheng Zhou and his gang with two motorboats.

"Attention gunners! Aim for the target! Three shots in a row! The commander of the snow leopard brigade ordered.

"Boom!" "Boom!" "Boom!" A total of twelve cannonballs from the four cannons on the four sailing boats sank two fishing boats disguised as motorboats!

The four sailing boats sailed in front of the sunken "fishing boat", but saw that the "fishing boat" had fallen apart, and the sea water was a large red patch; The corpses of more than 20 Kuomintang officers and soldiers floated up and down with the current; There were also five or six officers and men struggling on the seashore, and among them there was also a man with the rank of major general.

"Kill these reactionary bad guys!" The soldiers were so angry that they raised their guns to kill five or six Kuomintang officers and soldiers who were struggling on the ground.

"Wait! Comrades! To save bullets, don't use guns for these dying dead crabs! I can kill them with just a stick, and make their death even more uncomfortable. As he spoke, the brigade commander of the leopard in the snow found a wooden stick and personally killed five or six Kuomintang officers and soldiers who had fallen to the ground and were dying.

What happened to this snow leopard brigade commander? To completely wipe out the remnants of the Kuomintang reactionaries, how many bullets do you care? And beaten with a wooden stick? And also do it yourself?

It turned out that the commander of the Snow Leopard Brigade saw that among the five or six Kuomintang officers and soldiers lying on the ground, there was a person with the rank of major general; asked Wu Xiongfei, who is the person who carries the rank of major general? After Wu Xiongfei identified it, he clearly told Brigade Commander Xue that this guy was Xue Shan, the commander of the "Anti-Communist National Salvation Army".

When the brigade commander of the leopard in the snow heard Wu Xiongfei's words, his brows furrowed, and after thinking about it, he came up with a clever plan to "kill" these Kuomintang officers and soldiers with wooden sticks - he wanted to sing a big drama to completely destroy the Kuomintang army!

This great drama sung by the commander of the Leopard Brigade in the Snow played a decisive role in completely eliminating the remnants of the Kuomintang army. Unexpectedly, God made people, and this top-secret plan of the Snow Brigade Commander turned out to be ...... (To be continued......)
