In the grassy grass on the top of the hill on the outskirts of Hongtutun, soldiers of the Mikawa Brigade who were ambushed here were closely monitoring Ishihara's convoy.

The captain of the Mikawa team looked at the convoy with a telescope in his hand and found that Tang Qianlin and Ishihara Kenji were sitting in the same car.

The detachment leader put down the binoculars and instructed the communications soldier next to him: "Send a report to the general, Tang Qianlin was taken away by General Ishihara!" ”

In the office of Langang Station, Kyoji Miyake sat in front of the fire, staring at the burning charcoals, waiting for news from the Mikawa team.

When Kenji Ishihara set off from the Mudanjiang River for Hongtutun, he received the news. As the head of the special intelligence department of the Kwantung Army, he planted eyeliner in all units.

He was worried that Kenji Ishihara had discovered some secrets in the red clay tun. Although the man, codenamed Chonghu, had repeatedly stated that the secrets in the Red Clay Tun were useless to him, he still did not want the secrets to fall into the hands of Kenji Ishihara.

After all, in the Army, they are opposites.

At this time, there was a knock on the office door, and Kyoji Miyake raised his eyes and said, "Come in." ”

Maeda Masaji walked in with a telegram in his hand and said, "General, the Mikawa team is calling, and General Ishihara has taken Tang Qianlin and the rest of the secret search section." ”

Kyoji Miyake frowned: "Are there any other discoveries?" ”

Maeda Masaji said: "General Ishihara's troops did not stay in Hongtutun for too long, but after taking Tang Qianlin and others, they ordered the entire Hongtutun to be destroyed. ”

Kyoji Miyake got up: "Destroy? ”

Maeda Masaji nodded: "Today's Hongtutun has become a ruin. ”

Kyoji Miyake wondered, "What does this guy Ishihara want to do?" What was at his fingertips, in front of him, he didn't even do any investigation and research. ”

Maeda Masaji said: "General, the people of the secret search section were taken away by them, I'm afraid that the secret will be leaked, do you want me to bring someone to bring them back?" ”

Kyoji Miyake said: "Of course, but you have to use a more ingenious method to ask for someone directly, it's too deliberate, and it's impossible for them to reveal the secrets he knows to Ishihara." ”

Masaji Maeda asked, "So, what should we do?" ”

Kyoji Miyake said: "Now we can't have any conflict with Ishihara, the League of Nations press corps is coming, at this time the conflict between me and Ishihara will be considered a disagreement within the military department, and I believe that Ishihara should come to me on his own initiative." ”

Maeda Masaji asked: "General, I don't understand, why is Tang Qianlin so important?" ”

Kyoji Miyake just said, "Get ready, we should go back to Harbin." ”

Maeda Masaji nodded and left, and when he closed the door, he vaguely heard Kyoji Miyake muttering, "I also want to know why Tang Qianlin is so important......

Not long after Kyoji Miyake led his Mikawa team to evacuate Langang Station, Kenji Ishihara's military commander drove a military vehicle to pull the sleeping people in Hongtutun and the Manchukuo soldiers who had just woken up from their slumber and had no idea what was happening to Langang Station.

After the car stopped, Qi Hongyun and Zhang Guodong stood there stupidly, watching the Japanese soldiers lift the sleeping people off the car one by one, place them on the platform, and then prepare to leave by car.

Zhang Guodong and Qi Hongyun were confused, but in the end, Qi Hongyun had the courage to step forward and call Jun Cao: "Sir! Excuse me, what the hell is going on? ”

Jun Cao said: "I don't know. ”

Qi Hongyun was stunned for a moment, and looked at the people sleeping there: "Then, these people ......"

Jun Cao is still the same three words: "I don't know." ”

Qi Hongyun asked, "Then may I ask what part of you are from, sir?" ”

Jun Cao replied: "Kwantung Army." ”

Qi Hongyun secretly scolded in his heart: "Isn't this nonsense? Are you not the Kwantung Army or the Kwantung Army? But on the surface, Qi Hongyun humbly asked: "I mean specific?" ”

Jun Cao said: "You are not qualified to know, in short, if you want to know what happened, it is very simple, call the police." ”

Jun Cao said and looked at Zhang Guodong in a police uniform, when Qi Hongyun turned to look at Zhang Guodong, Jun Cao had already gotten into the car, and then the convoy drove away from Langang Station, leaving behind the confused Qi Hongyun and Zhang Guodong.

When the convoy disappeared from sight, Qi Hongyun looked at Zhang Guodong and said, "Director Zhang, you also heard it, this is your policeman's business." ”

After speaking, Qi Hongyun turned around and left to begin counting the number of soldiers, and led the team to leave after rectification.

Soon, only Zhang Guodong and countless men, women and children in Hongtutun who were still sleeping on the platform.

Zhang Guodong took off his hat, looked at the people everywhere, and shuddered.

Kenji Ishihara's convoy stopped when it reached an intersection, and the brigade drove away in a different direction except for Kenji Ishihara's guards.

Tang Qianlin looked ahead and asked, "Where are we going now?" ”

Kenji Ishihara said: "The most peaceful place in Manchukuo, but also the most equal place, the real paradise." ”

Tang Qianlin asked, "What do you mean?" ”

Kenji Ishihara closed his eyes and said, "There are still many hours to go, Mr. Tang, let's get some sleep." ”

Go to bed? Now Tang Qianlin's biggest fear is sleeping, he is worried that he will wake up from sleep, and then open his eyes and return to the red clay tun.

What happened in the red clay tun this time was enough to leave a shadow on him for the rest of his life.

The car drove for almost six hours before finally coming to a checkpoint.

The officer of the checkpoint guard walked to the front of the car and saluted: "General, are you here?" ”

Kenji Ishihara asked, "How are the two days going?" ”

The officer glanced at the unfamiliar Tang Qianlin and replied, "As usual, it's very calm." ”

Kenji Ishihara said, "Okay, let's go." ”

The officer waved his hand and ordered the soldiers to carry away the horses that stood in front of the checkpoint and let the convoy go. When the convoy drove by, Tang Qianlin saw that cement bunkers were built around the checkpoint, like a small fortress, and those Japanese soldiers also stood at their respective posts to salute the convoy.

Kenji Ishihara said: "Since I came to Mudanjiang, there has never been an incident of Japanese soldiers harassing the people, and I have issued an order that if the people are harassed, the military law will deal with it." ”

Tang Qianlin didn't express an opinion, just raised his eyes and looked at the birch forest in front of him through the windshield in front of him.

When the convoy entered the birch forest, it was like driving into a bottomless sea of trees, and it was impossible to see through the trees.

Tang Qianlin couldn't help but ask, "Where are we going?" ”

Ye Da, who was sitting on the side, was also puzzled.

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a light ahead, and the car drove out of the birch forest, and then appeared in front of Tang Qianlin's eyes several houses under construction, and there were busy people standing above and below the houses, judging from the dress of those people, there were Chinese, Japanese, Koreans, and even some foreign faces.

When they saw the motorcade passing by, they all turned their heads and smiled in greeting, and Kenji Ishihara also opened the window and waved at them with a smile.

Tang Qianlin looked at the smiles of those people outside, and they all looked sincere and heartfelt, which made him very puzzled.

Kenji Ishihara finally said: "This is the Gongei Village I built single-handedly, it is a closed village, to be precise, according to the scale, it should be a town, and I hope that it will become the most prosperous city in Manchukuo in the future." ”

Tang Qianlin still didn't say a word, just looked at the buildings in this so-called Gongrong Village, and he found that most of the buildings on the periphery were newly built, and inside these buildings, there was an ancient town that seemed to have a long history.

The car stopped at the door of what looked like an ancient county office, and the policeman standing guard at the gate raised his hand and saluted, then trotted to the car and opened the door.

After Kenji Ishihara got out of the car, he stood there and said: "This is the center of Gongrong Village, according to our expert investigation, this is a city in the style of the early Bohai Kingdom, but unfortunately the city was destroyed by the Khitan not long after the city was built. ”

After Ishihara Kenji finished speaking, Qian Sinian, Li Yunfan, Yi Mochen and Ni Xiaowan walked down the truck in the rear one after another, Ni Xiaowan was still holding the jelly beans curled up in her hands, and when she left before, the jelly beans jumped directly on the truck and lay on Ni Xiaowan, who was still sleeping.

However, only Jinguss was missing.

Where did Gurgus go? Tang Qianlin looked left and right,

The others looked at Tang Qianlin and Ye Da with puzzled eyes, not knowing what was going on?

Why did you fall asleep? And why did you wake up in a Japanese truck? Why did the truck come to such a strange place again? Why was Tang Qianlin with that sacrificial soldier?

What the hell is this place?

Kenji Ishihara glanced at everyone, stretched out his hand and said, "Everyone, please." ”

Kenji Ishihara said and led everyone into the yamen, where there were also policemen cleaning up, and the rest of the policemen were busily walking around, carrying all kinds of furniture and documents and other things, everyone smiled politely when they saw Ishihara Kenji, and Ishihara Kenji smiled in return.

From their conversation, Tang Qianlin heard that in addition to Chinese, these policemen also had Koreans, Japanese, and several Russian faces.

It's weird, what the hell is going on?

Kenji Ishihara led everyone through the lobby of the yamen to the backyard, and after standing still, he said to everyone: "Tonight, I have wronged you to live in the backyard of the county government first, I have asked people to make beds for you, and tomorrow, I will ask them to sort out the hotel, and then ask you to move over." ”

After speaking, Kenji Ishihara politely bowed slightly to everyone, and said: "You have worked the boat, I think, you also have a lot to say in private, there is something to discuss, I am not very here to do anything, so I will leave first." ”

After Ishihara Kenji finished speaking, he turned around and left, leaving Tang Qianlin and Ye Da stunned, staring at each other, completely unaware of what was happening.

Qian Sinian stepped forward and asked, "What the hell is going on?" What's wrong? Aren't we in Hongtutun? What is this place? ”

Tang Qianlin looked at the big house next to him and said, "Come into the house and say, find some water to drink, I'm a little thirsty." ”

Everyone entered the house, and after Tang Qianlin drank two glasses of water in one go, he looked at everyone: "We are already asleep in the poppy field of Hongtutun, and it should be said that we are in a coma after being poisoned......

Next, Tang Qianlin talked about his experience in detail.

Tang Qianlin spoke for two hours, and everyone was stunned and stunned for several minutes, but no one asked questions.

Tang Qianlin looked at everyone and asked, "After you fell asleep, did you have any dreams?" ”

Everyone looked at each other, and Li Yunfan said first: "I have a dream." ”

Tang Qianlin asked, "Then what did you dream about?" ”
