Episode 18 Encounter in the Tiger's Den

To be exact, this is a "general condition". If this article does not pass, there is no need to talk about anything else.

"I want the outside world to know that I'm here," Fourteen Gege said in a weak but unquestionable voice as he lay on the bed, "especially Mingfang, to know that I'm here...... Otherwise, I won't eat, and I won't talk to you about anything else. ”

Beria was still looking at her with a smile on his face, but his eyes were clearly rolling, and he was thinking.

Fourteen Gege then said:

"Don't hesitate, you can't decide. Go and report to Stalin. ”

Beria knew that the purpose of her request was to increase her value and keep the eyes of the world here, at least when she was unwilling to cooperate, the Soviets could not force her. Moreover, Ming Fang can also plan early, and is ready to exchange what benefits for her.

This is really not something that Beria can decide. He said goodnight to Fourteen Gege very respectfully and left.

……

More than a dozen hours later, at noon on the 19th, two Soviet spies brought in a gramophone, put on a vinyl record, connected it to the power supply, and started to start.

Fourteen Gege was still tied to the bed for infusion, and opened his eyes in a daze, looking at all this. Beria came in and motioned to turn on. Then, a calm male voice came out of the gramophone, speaking in Russian, accompanied by the turbulent sound of "squeak, wow, wow".

Fourteen Gege stared at the ceiling expressionlessly, not saying a word or understanding it, waiting for Beria to speak first.

After a while, the record was finished, and Beria asked the machine to be turned off and said a word. Translator says:

"Your Royal Highness, now your request, we have done it. This is a transcript broadcast by Radio Moscow two hours ago, which we have recorded here. Moscow has announced to the whole world that Gege, the No. 2 spy head of the Ming Kingdom, Princess Liaoyang, and the defector of the former Qing Kingdom who is wanted by the government of the Ili Kingdom, has made a forced landing in our country and has now been extradited by our country to the government of the Ili Kingdom. ”

Beria looked at Fourteen Gege, and the most kind smile appeared on his face:

"Your Royal Highness, what do you want to eat at noon?"

Fourteen Gege was still expressionless, and said lightly:

"How do I know if this record was recorded right here?"

After listening to the translation, Beria nodded in understanding.

"Your Highness Princess," he said, "I understand that we are all in this business, and indeed, as you suspect, it is a common method. I can assure you that not this time, though. You can rest assured. ”

Fourteen Gege says:

"I don't understand your stage. Put a radio in my room, I control it, and I listen to whichever station I want. ”

Beria shook his head and said:

"I'm afraid it won't work. What we can promise is to let the outside world know that you are in our hands. As for what you can know and what you can't know, it must be in our hands. ”

Fourteen Gege knew that it was impossible for the Soviets to have her own radio and free access to outside information. If she could know at all times what was happening in the outside world and what the reaction of all walks of life was, then the Soviets would be passive in the interrogation.

She took the opportunity to propose:

"Then, let the Ming side send a representative to meet me. It had to be someone I knew. ”

After listening to the translation, Beria shook his head directly:

"No, I can't. No touch. ”

Fourteen Gege says:

"There's no need to touch, there's no need to talk, we just have to look at each other and make sure we see each other clearly. As long as you agree to this, at least on the 'special mission' given to you by Stalin, I will cooperate. You ask me to provide for whomever I give. It's okay to bite out Yenov himself. As for the secrets of our country, it is impossible for me to say. My value to you is that you can use me to exchange benefits with Mingguo. As for what you will exchange for me, even if it is for the peace of Kazakhstan, I will not intervene. …… You know, I'm very valuable. It's a lot more cost-effective than forcing me to confess a few spies. …… That's it, let me see the representative of the Ming side, otherwise...... Think about it. Well, I'm tired. ”

Beria listened to the translation, stared at Fourteen Gege's face, smiled, and nodded slightly. After a while, he laughed and said:

"Well, I can help you fight for it. However, it also depends on what Comrade Stalin thinks. ”

Fourteen Gege closed his eyes, exhaled tiredly, and said lightly:

"I don't care what he thinks."

After listening to the translation, Beria still stood up with great dignity, asked her to rest, and then withdrew.

……

On the afternoon of the 20th, the door opened again. Two female medics entered, followed by a spy and the interpreter. The two female military doctors untied the bandages on her hands for the fourteen grids, gently put her arms in the bed, and then moved the infusion bottles and shelves away. The interpreter explained in Chinese that the people from the Ming side had already arrived, just downstairs, and would come up soon. Unraveling her in this way is to hope that everyone will look better, and I hope she will not mention the hunger strike and the infusion.

Fourteen Gege nodded and said:

"Let him come up."

The translator nodded to the agent behind him, and the agent went out. A moment later, the door opened again, and he led a man in.

"Your Highness the Princess!"

A familiar voice sounded, and Fourteen Gege turned his head to look at the man, and tears burst into his eyes.

This is none other than Hu Jiong. Hu Jiong saw the pale and emaciated Fourteen Gege, and was about to step forward, but was stopped by the tall Soviet spy. The interpreter said:

"Don't come forward, it's here."

Hu Jiong knew that the Soviets were afraid that he would take the opportunity to pass notes and whisper, so they had to keep a certain distance.

The translator stared at Hu Jiong and said sternly:

"You can have a few short conversations, but if there's anything you need to say about the military, intelligence, the outside world, or anything else, you'll be taken out right away."

Hu Jiong glanced at the translator and nodded. Then he looked at the fourteen grids, choked in his throat, and said slowly:

"Your Royal Highness, Princess, you ...... You suffered. ”

Fourteen Gege looked at Hu Jiong at the moment, as if he was seeing a relative. She was also in tears, choked up and unable to speak.

After a while, with tears in her eyes, she stared at Hu Jiong and said softly:

"Go back and tell the prince and His Majesty that I have been here all along, very well, waiting for them to rescue me."

Hu Jiong's eyes were also red, and he nodded vigorously. He understood Fourteen's eyes, and he understood her hint with a pun. On the surface, it was for Ming Guo to hurry up and negotiate with the Soviet Union and offer conditions to exchange her back. The Soviets thought so too. But in fact, Fourteen Gege said that she would always be imprisoned in this villa, and when she came to rescue, in addition to Guangwu's castle, this villa was also a target.

Hu Jiong nodded, choked up and said:

"Your Royal Highness the Princess, don't worry, I will definitely return to Your Majesty and the Prince, and they will definitely rescue you as soon as possible. Your Royal Highness, you must take care of yourself here. Be sure to take care of your body. Please remember, Your Highness. ”

Fourteen Gege also understood. Hu Jiong probably saw her so thin, and it is estimated that this meeting was also won by her hunger strike, so let her recover her strength as soon as possible and wait for rescue.

The two wanted to say something more, but the interpreter stopped them, saying that they could only say so much. So, Hu Jiong was taken out by Soviet spies, and the door was closed again.

Fourteen Gege lay on the bed, squinting his eyes, and let out a long breath that welled up with tears welling up. She knew that the message was now delivered accurately. In a few days at most, the commando gliders will descend here. What I have to do now is to eat well, recover my strength, and wait for the Ming army commando to come to the rescue. By the way, Guangwu was also arrested.
