Chapter 18 Fails for the First Time
Zhang Ade's residence is in Houhai Street, Dongcheng District, very close to the eastern suburbs of Minxiang District, and it is a mansion with a five-entry courtyard. The living room is very spacious, with a full set of sour branch chairs on the north and south sides, and marble tables and stools in the south. On the south wall hangs a portrait of Li Lianying. In the middle of the east wall is a glass cabinet with jasper, agate, coral, and strange stones. The cabinets are lined with bookshelves. On the west side is a long sofa imported from the United Kingdom.
A Tsing Yi servant from Zhang's Mansion led Wu Chunfeng into the living room, and when Wu Chunfeng passed by the front yard, he found that there were more than a dozen armed men patrolling the front yard, and he couldn't help but be secretly surprised.
Butler Wang of Zhang's Mansion met Wu Chunfeng in the living room, Steward Wang was a thin man in his forties, dressed in a cyan gown. He smiled and said, "I heard that the little brother wants to sell ancestral jade? Take it out and show me. ”
Wu Chunfeng took out a red silk cloth bag from his arms and opened it, and inside was a pair of crystal clear jade jade horses. He smiled at Steward Wang: "This is the jade horse left by my grandfather, and he was not willing to sell it when people gave him a thousand yuan in the past." Now the family is really short of money, I heard that your master Zhang is an expert in antiques, of course, the goods are sold to the family, so they are sent. ”
Of course, this pair of jade horses is not an ancestral heirloom, but a capture of the Flying Eagle Gang. Steward Wang took the jade horse and looked at it and said, "You wait here, I'll go and show it to the master." ”
Ten minutes later, Steward Wang came back angrily, and said sharply to Wu Chunfeng: "I can't see that you are young, but you are a liar, using this kind of broken things to deceive our master, and saying that it is worth a thousand oceans, I don't think it's even worth a copper plate." ”
He threw the red silk bag on the table and said, "Take it back and get out!" ”
Wu Chunfeng opened the red silk bag and was dumbfounded: the jade horse inside had turned into two white stones, although it was also carved into the shape of a horse, but the workmanship was extremely rough and indeed worthless. Steward Wang glanced at the housekeepers, and the two sturdy housekeepers with guns held the wooden sticks hanging from their waists and walked behind Wu Chunfeng.
Wu Chunfeng said excitedly: "I didn't give you this stone, is Steward Wang mistaken?" ”
Before the words fell, he was knocked to the ground by a fat housekeeper with a punch, and kicked a few times in a row, and the fat housekeeper raised a wooden stick and said viciously: "What are you, you dare to slander the king's housekeeper, and if you don't get out, break your dog's legs." ”
The obese Zhang Ade was wearing a purple silk robe and holding a snuffbox in his hand, standing in front of the window on the second floor, watching Wu Chunfeng stumble out of the gate of Zhang's mansion. He asked the steward Wang beside him, "Didn't this kid say anything?" ”
Steward Wang smiled: "It's just a hairy boy, beat him first, and then scare him by a few cruel words, where do you dare to say anything?" ”
Zhang Ade didn't laugh, and said in a cold tone: "Young people are more likely to be impulsive, but he is calm, which is a bit strange." Send someone to inquire about his origins. In addition, the three machine guns that I bought last time will be transported to the house now. ”
At Di Xiong's house, Wu Chunfeng spread a freshly drawn map on the living room table, and Di Xiong, Leng Hanbing, Hong Tianlie and others all gathered around to look at it.
Wu Chunfeng still had Yu Qing who was beaten on his face, he pointed to the map and said: "There are a total of five major courtyards in Zhang's mansion, and there are more than a dozen families with guns in the first courtyard, according to this calculation, there should be more than fifty families in the mansion, plus the bodyguards hired with a lot of money, there are about sixty gunmen in total." There are four corner towers in the front yard and backyard, and there is a small attic on the gatehouse, and there is a secret whistle inside, if you enter through the main entrance, you must knock out the secret whistle first. ”
Di Xiong said: "There are only more than 20 people in our action group, and the restaurant and textile factory have to be guarded, so we can only transfer a maximum of 20 people to participate in the operation. Before the action tomorrow night, Hong Tianlie took his two brothers to the 'Zhang Ji' antique shop to make trouble, which was Zhang Ade's biggest shop, and he would definitely send some of his family members to the antique shop. Then let's do it again. ”
Each member of the action group had a pistol, and if he had good marksmanship, he also had a rifle, and in addition to the captured guns, there was also a batch of Mauser guns bought from a German foreign firm, which was bought by the Englishman Sean.
Wu Chunfeng said: "You must start quickly, it is best to solve it within half an hour, the police station and the head of the gendarmerie in Houhai District have a very hard relationship with Zhang Ade, they receive the alarm, they will go to the rescue after half an hour, unless the telephone line is cut." ”
Wu Chunfeng told Di Xiong about Zhang Ade's use of the "bag drop scheme" to deceive Yuma, Di Xiong sneered: "This insatiable guy, so rich and defrauding people, is obviously a veteran of fraud, we really didn't choose the wrong target when we looked for him." I'm going to make it both costly. ”
A black face asked, "Boss Di!" Why did we choose Zhang Ade as the target? He was neither a lackey of the Japanese nor a minion of the Russians. ”
Di Xiong said: "Because Li Lianying's inheritance falls into his hands, it will only become the funds for the restoration of the royalists, and if it comes to us, it will be used to benefit the people, and the country and the nation will become strong and brilliant!" ”
This is said in a high-sounding manner, leaving everyone speechless.
At ten o'clock the next night, Steward Wang received a phone call and learned that someone was making trouble in the antique shop, and many precious porcelain were smashed, so he hurriedly reported it to Zhang Ade. Zhang Ade was so anxious when he heard this, he hurriedly asked the bodyguard captain Tong Dazhong to take more than a dozen family members to the antique shop on Chaoyang Street to settle the matter. Tong Dazhong and his younger brother Tong Erzhong are known as the "Yanjing Double Fast Gun", and the three killers of the Flying Knife Party died at his gun.
Tong Dazhong and his party went out of Zhang's mansion for less than ten minutes, the secret sentry on the gatehouse saw a man in black running to the gate outside, he hurriedly picked up the rifle, and was about to aim and ask, when suddenly the cold light flashed, and there was an extra crossbow arrow on his throat, and the arrow was coated with the poison of blood sealing the throat. The black-clothed and masked cold ice threw out the flying tiger claws and took the lead in climbing the courtyard wall, and nine people including Du Ma Gong and Zhang Kuwa also climbed up. When entering the front yard, they suddenly encountered a team of patrolling family members, there were five people, Leng Hanbing and others quickly pulled out their guns and fired, and the barrels were equipped with silencers, but the ten shots only knocked down the three people in front, and the two people in the back were blocked by the people in front, they hurriedly lay down and fired back, and at the same time shouted loudly, "Bang bang bang ......", the crisp gunfire alarmed the whole house. Under Zhang Ade's order, Tong Erzhong summoned more than 30 bodyguards and family members from the other four courtyards to reinforce the front yard.
Zhang Ade's wives and concubines were all screaming in fright. Only Zhang Ade said calmly: "Don't panic! The house had encountered bandits before, but it had never been breached, and with a machine gun, it was even more difficult for the bandits to come and go, and Steward Wang went out from the side door and asked for help from the Blue Dragon Society. ”
Steward Wang said yes and ran out of the right door.
Di Xiong, Zhang Heiface, Wang Shishi's group of people waited for the gunshots in the front yard to sound before entering through the backyard door, Zhang Heiface first climbed over the wall, killed a sentry with a knife, opened the backyard door, and let Di Xiong and them in. There are only a few houses in the backyard that are piled up with some worthless debris, and there are still a dozen old beds in each room, which is about where the family and their families sleep, and a few women and children in shabby clothes are huddled in the corner and shivering in fright. Di Xiong sent Wang Shi to guard the backyard door, Zhang Heiface led several members to attack the fourth courtyard, but encountered fierce resistance, one member was shot and wounded, Zhang Heiface shot down two family members, a machine gun suddenly appeared on the courtyard wall, condescendingly "da-da-da" strafing, Zhang Heiface and three team members were caught off guard, and fell to the ground on the spot.
Di Xiong aimed with a rifle, knocked down the machine gunner with one shot, and when the other party changed the machine gunner, he led the other team members to rescue Zhang Heiface and them back to the backyard, and found that one of the team members had died of breath, Zhang Heiface was shot several times in the chest, blood gushed like a spring, and he was about to die.
Di Xiong took out the gauze from the first aid kit to wrap the wounds on Zhang Hei's face, and Zhang Heitou said to Di Xiong in a weak voice: "Boss! It's a pity that I can't go with you to reclaim the northern frontier! You can kill a few more old hairy people for me! After saying that, he swallowed his breath.
Due to Dixiong's brainwashing education in his lectures, Zhang Heiyan has already taken Dixiong's dream as his goal. Seeing the loyal and righteous young man he had so hard cultivated die like this, Di Xiong couldn't help but shed tears and said, "Black face! You could have become a general, but I underestimated the enemy and harmed you. ”
At this time, there was an explosion outside the backyard door, and the sound of machine guns rang out again on the wall of the fourth courtyard, this time the machine guns became two. Wang Shishi said to Di Xiong: "There are a large number of gunmen from the Blue Dragon Society outside the back door to support Zhang's mansion, we used grenades to blow them back, and if we don't retreat now, the back road will be blocked." ”
Di Xiong said calmly: "The operation has failed, you take the corpses of the two dead brothers out and retreat to the west, throw down all the Oriental swords you brought, and I will go to the east to lead them away." ”
Leng Hanbing and more than 30 bodyguards led by Tong Erzhong exchanged fire, also suffered heavy casualties, Tong Erzhong's marksmanship was extremely accurate, three members of the action team fell under his gun, one of them was hit by the vital point, and died on the spot. Leng Hanbing's group was originally covering Di Xiong and them, but seeing that the family members had been attracted, he ordered a retreat. Tong Erzhong chased after him, and another member of the pursuit battle was shot dead in the heart, and he was coldly angry, he suddenly turned around in the air and flew towards Tong Erzhong, which frightened Tong Erzhong, and lost his head when shooting, and the two shot three times. Tong Erzhong, known as one of the "Yanjing Double Fast Guns", had a flowering head and returned to heaven with his life, and when the chasing soldiers saw that even such a powerful gunman as Tong Erzhong was killed, he immediately retreated to Zhang's Mansion in fright, and Leng Hanbing was also hit by two bullets, but they were not critical.
Leng Hanbing Northeast Orion was born, and he has practiced good marksmanship since he was a child, and in the Xihe Society, he is the best marksmanship, and he finally showed his superior skills when he was critical.
