Peng Yuou asked Cheng Qianfan if He Guan returned to the patrol house and took over the position of the Third Patrol Inspector, would he support it? What are the pros and cons?
In Peng and Ou's view, Cheng Qianfan may support or have different opinions, and at the same time analyze the pros and cons.
He never expected that Cheng Qianfan would express his opposition so clearly.
"He Guan and Jin Kemu are different." Cheng Qianfan shook his hand and said, "Jin Kemu only had a tough attitude towards Japan, but He Guan personally went to the battlefield to fight with the Japanese, and He Guan took the initiative to join the army."
After the previous meeting with Sanbonjiro, Cheng Qianfan speculated and concluded that Sanbonjiro was the mastermind behind the Annan patrol and surveillance of He Guan. He knew that Sanbonjiro had concealed some things from him, including Sanbonjiro already has more detailed information about He Guan. At least he should know that the Jiangsu Provincial Security Group where He Guan is located fought with the Japanese army on the Songhu battlefield.
"I understand the style and temperament of the Special High School and Sanbonjiro. They will not let go of anti-Japanese military personnel like He Guan." Cheng Qianfan said, "If He Guan is hiding honestly in the French Concession, Maybe the Japanese won't take action so quickly, but once He Guan wants to return to the patrol room, let alone take over my position as the Third Patrol Inspector, Sanbonjiro will not hesitate to give orders to get rid of He Guan."
Cheng Qianfan handed a cigarette to Peng Yuou. He turned a cigarette in his hand, pushed up the frame of his glasses, and said, "Sanbonjiro will not allow a man who has a firm determination to resist Japan and has fought with the Japanese army on the battlefield. If someone enters the patrol room, even among the middle-level police officers in the patrol room, he will regard He Guan as a huge hidden danger."
Peng and Ou touched their bodies and found the match box. They pushed it open and looked at it. They found it was empty and threw it away.
Cheng Qianfan glanced at the ordinary match box and ignored it.
He took out the match box from his body, struck a match and helped the professor light his cigarette.
…
“Furthermore, based on my guess, Sanbonjiro is even very likely to arrange for me to kill He Guan.”
“In addition, although I don’t know much about He Guan’s current situation, based on my previous impression of him, his character is not suitable for being a lurker, which is very important.”
As he spoke, he lit his cigarette with the remaining flames of the match, took a puff, and exhaled a stream of white mist. "Based on these reasons and considerations, I firmly oppose He Guan's return to the patrol room."
He thought as he spoke, "Even in my personal opinion, I suggest that He Guan should leave Shanghai, or to be more precise, he should stay out of the enemy's sight."
Cheng Qianfan frowned slightly, "I can't predict when Sanbonjiro will attack He Guan. To be on the safe side, it's better to move out in time."
…
"You two are indeed good friends." After the cigarette ashes fell, Peng Yuou patted his clothes, "The organization asked He Guan for his personal opinion, and he also expressed his reluctance to return to the patrol room. Of course, Comrade He Guan also expressed his opinion. , if the organization makes a decision, he will unconditionally obey the organization's decision."
“If it’s as I expected, why would you want to return to the battlefield?” Cheng Qianfan said.
He knows He Guan very well. Not to mention that He Guan is not suitable for lurking work. What this guy likes most is to go to the battlefield and kill Japanese soldiers.
"Yes, Comrade He Guan wants to join the army." Peng Yuou shook his head and said with a smile, "You know him well. He said that he wanted to go to North China to join the Eighth Route Army. If it is not convenient to go to North China, he would go to Nanchang Join the New Fourth Army."
"I guessed it would be like this." Cheng Qianfan smiled, it didn't matter.
Cheng Qianfan glanced at Peng Yuou and smiled softly, "Secretary Peng should have other arrangements to consider about He Guan."
Peng and Ou were surprised, "How did you tell?"
Cheng Qianfan smiled and said, "Secretary Peng, although you were surprised to hear that I firmly opposed He Guan's return to the patrol room, you did not show any intention of having a different opinion."
He flicked his thumb and popped out the cigarette butt, "Besides, Secretary Peng, your initial comment about He Guan was that he was an outstanding military talent."
Young comrade Huo Miao gave his old comrade Peng Yuou a joking look, "For a military talent like He Guan who has fought fierce and cruel battles with the Japanese army, will Secretary Peng be willing to let him leave Shanghai?"
…
“You kid.” Peng Yuou pointed at Cheng Qianfan and laughed, “Nothing can be hidden from you guys.”
Looking at Cheng Qianfan, Peng Yuou said seriously, "Shanghai has been occupied for several months. The Japanese invaders burned, killed, raped and looted everywhere they went. They committed all kinds of evil. The organization decided to form a guerrilla force in the suburbs to carry out the anti-Japanese struggle around the suburbs of Shanghai. "
"Great!" Cheng Qianfan was extremely excited when he heard this. "I have been thinking about this for a while. Although the Japanese occupied Shanghai, because the Japanese army continued to expand their aggression, their garrison in Shanghai was insufficient. This made Their main force is concentrated in the urban area, and their force in the suburbs is actually weak."
“In view of the fact that the Japanese army has insufficient troops and weak governance in the suburbs, this is a good opportunity for our party to carry out mass work in the suburbs and lead the anti-Japanese struggle.”
Cheng Qianfan's eyes seemed to be radiating light, "The Japanese army also knows that they currently have insufficient control over the suburbs. The Japanese are eager to establish a puppet regime in Shanghai, and they want to use the power of traitors to strengthen their control over the suburbs and surrounding areas of Shanghai."
“We must do a good job in the anti-Japanese armed struggle in the suburbs before the puppet regime is established in Shanghai.”
Cheng Qianfan saw Peng Yuou looking at him with a "strange" expression.
“Secretary Peng, what’s wrong?” Cheng Qianfan asked.
“What you mentioned is exactly what I have discussed with some comrades from the Jiangsu Provincial Party Committee and Shanghai Municipal Party Committee.” Peng Yuou was very happy and nodded approvingly.
"When I met Comrade 'Xiang Wu' last year, I talked about you with Comrade 'Xiang Wu'. He said that you had excellent academic performance in the infantry section of the Central Army Officer School and that you were a very good military talent. I didn't think much of you at the time. Mind you, now it seems that what Comrade 'Xiang Wu' said is true."
Hearing this, Cheng Qianfan smiled happily and did not say anything like Comrade Xiangwu being too complimentary.
Seeing this scene, Peng Yuou also smiled. He still remembered that when Comrade Xiangwu talked about Comrade Huo Miao, he didn't look like the expression of Comrade Chief when talking about outstanding revolutionary comrades and subordinates.
That is the pride of the elders towards the outstanding performance of the younger generation.
At that time, Peng and Ou even thought that Comrade Xiang Wu had a meaning of "Come and praise my children."
He then talked about Cheng Qianfan's work performance and praised him. Of course, this was not a deliberate compliment. "Huo Miao" was indeed very good, and Peng and Ou vaguely noticed that Comrade "Xiangwu"'s mood seemed to be even higher.
He looked at Cheng Qianfan, and he felt that Cheng Qianfan's expression was also very interesting now, very much like the happy look of being praised by his elders and not disappointing them.
…
“In Puxi, our comrades led the establishment of the Qingdong People’s Anti-Japanese Guerrilla Force.” Peng Yuou said.
“Qingdong?” Cheng Qianfan immediately asked, “What are the main areas included?”
“The eastern part of Qingpu mainly includes Zhaoxiang, Qibao, Huangdu, Chonggu, Xujing and other places.” Peng Yuou said, “The organization intends to build this area into the Qingdong Anti-Japanese Guerrilla Base Area.”
“The Jiangsu Provincial Party Committee established an external work committee, and the committee made a decision to send some key comrades to support the Qingdong People’s Anti-Japanese Guerrilla Force.”
“Our party does not lack comrades with firm revolutionary enthusiasm and determination to resist Japan.” Peng Yuou said, “What it lacks are military talents, especially military talents who have experienced cruel battles with the Japanese army.”
“Comrade He Guan led the team and had fierce positional battles with the Japanese army, as well as tragic hand-to-hand combat. Such military talents are extremely rare.”
"I have been considering proposing to the External Line Committee that Comrade He Guan be added to the list of those who support the Qingpu guerrillas." Peng Yuou said, "However, some other comrades think that He Guan can return to the patrol room and rely on Jin Kemu's relationship. It has played a very good role, so no final decision has been made yet.”
Peng and Ou know very well that this cannot be blamed on other comrades for arranging the idea of lurking in the patrol house in the French Concession. If there are people inside the patrol house in the French Concession, this will be too important for our party's work in the concession:
'Flame', 'Yuchang', and 'Flying Fish' are lurking in the French Concession. Even the establishment of a party group is highly confidential. Only Peng Yuou of the entire Jiangsu Provincial Committee and the Shanghai Municipal Committee knows about it, and no one else knows about it. situation, that's why we are particularly looking forward to the matter of lurking in the patrol room in the French Concession.
Peng Yu'ou asked Cheng Qianfan for his opinion because Cheng Qianfan knew the situation in the French Concession best. If Cheng Qianfan believed that He Guan's return to the patrol house would do more good than harm, then Peng Yu'ou would consider withdrawing his idea and support He Guan. Return to the patrol room.
Now, Cheng Qianfan clearly expressed his opposition to He Guan returning to the patrol room. Naturally, Peng and Ou also firmed up their idea of arranging He Guan to go to the Qingdong People's Anti-Japanese Guerrilla Force.
“I support Comrade He Guan to go to the Qingdong People’s Anti-Japanese Guerrilla Force.” Cheng Qianfan said, “For Comrade He Guan, this is indeed a more appropriate arrangement.”
Peng Yuou nodded, "I will formally submit my opinions to the organization."
"How are the weapons and equipment of the guerrillas?" Cheng Qianfan said, "Do you need me to do anything?"
“I know you, Inspector Cheng, are a rich man.” Peng Yuou smiled and said, “But it’s not needed for the time being.”
In the later stages of the Songhu battlefield, due to poor command, the Chinese army, which fought very bravely in the frontal battle against Japan, turned into a great rout when it retreated, with many weapons and ammunition discarded and lost along the way.
The establishment of the Qingdong People's Anti-Japanese Guerrilla Force relied on these "picked up" weapons and ammunition, including even a mortar.
So, under the current circumstances, the Qingdong People’s Anti-Japanese Guerrilla Force has no shortage of weapons and ammunition.
For the guerrillas, what they currently lack most is military cadres, and what they need is time for training and development.
…
Cheng Qianfan reported to Peng Yuou that the Secret Service Headquarters had given him an order to eradicate the traitor Zou Fengqi, and said that he had also ordered the Shanghai Special Intelligence Team to prepare for the anti-traitor operation.
“Zou Fengqi took the initiative to defect to the Japanese, and the impact was extremely bad.” Peng Yuou said with a serious expression. “The organization learned that Zou Fengqi was secretly contacting other Beiyang warlords and lobbying them to defect to the Japanese.”
“According to the information we have, Zou Fengqi’s ally brother Zhou Huaigu has arrived in Shanghai from Baoding to respond to the Japanese preparations for the puppet regime in Shanghai.”
“Zhou Huaigu?” Cheng Qianfan looked strange.
“What’s wrong?” Peng Yuou asked.
“The year before last, the Secret Service had ordered sanctions against Zhou Huaigu, but unfortunately the operation failed and the Shanghai Station of the Secret Service lost several people.” Cheng Qianfan said, “Zhou Huaigu has already arrived in Shanghai?”
“This is not clear.” Peng Yuou shook his head. “The comrades in the north only have the news that Zhou Huaigu came to Shanghai, but they cannot know his specific whereabouts.”
"I will arrange for someone to go check it out. It is best if this person has already arrived in Shanghai." Cheng Qianfan said with a cold expression, "Since we are brothers, let's go on the road together so that we can have a companion."
…
The two talked for a while, then shook hands and said goodbye at the entrance of an alley.
Cheng Qianfan did not report to Peng Yuou that he was preparing to launch an attack on the Japanese horse farm on Huade Road.
Although ‘Huo Miao’ is also led by Peng Yuou, it is not completely led by Peng Yuou.
He is directly under the leadership of Comrade "Xiangwu" and is arranged to be directly managed by Comrade "Farmer".
Considering the complexity and particularity of Huo Miao's identity, Comrade "Farmer" gave special instructions on which situations could be reported to Peng Yuou and which situations did not need to be reported. This was randomly controlled by Cheng Qianfan himself.
Specifically, why did he choose not to mention the Huade Road Army Racecourse to Peng and Ou? But he can report to Peng Yuou about his preparations to sanction Zou Fengqi?
The sanctioning of Zou Fengqi was an order issued by the Secret Service Headquarters, and Cheng Qianfan has also issued task arrangements to relevant personnel within the Special Intelligence Team.
Even in extreme circumstances, the national government knows that the Red Party has learned about the matter. There are many sources of leaks and there is no obvious direction.
However, the attack on the Japanese Army Horse Farm on Huade Road is different. Apart from Cheng Qianfan, only Li Hao and Qiao Chuntao know about it. Once the government soon learns that the Red Party knows about the matter and follows the clues to investigate, the direction will be relatively obvious. It was easy to find Cheng Qianfan, so he had to guard against it.
…
Three hours and a quarter later.
Public Settlement, Huade Road.
An extremely handsome young man in a suit and tie raised his wrist to check the time, then put away his umbrella and opened the door of 'Louis Cafe'.
After entering the door.
He glanced at it casually, then walked towards the stairs towards the second floor.
ett by this
Brown calfskin shoes made a muffled sound when stepped on the wooden stairs.
The bottoms of his leather shoes were stained with snow, and the cafe with the fireplace was quite warm. The snow turned into water, leaving a series of wet footprints on the stairs.
Going up to the second floor and turning a corner.
The young man frowned slightly, and then he saw the private room with the 'A3' sign.
The corners of his mouth raised a confident arc and he walked straight over.
The door to the private room is ajar.
He opened the door and saw a very delicate-looking man looking over coldly.
Cheng Qianfan closed the door with his backhand.
Seeing who it was, this man, who was almost more handsome than a girl, immediately stood up.
"Since you entered this private room and you have been staring at the snow outside the window for thirty-three minutes, what have you learned?" Cheng Qianfan put the umbrella next to the chair and asked lightly.
Very grateful to [Xicheng Snow Erlang] for the reward of 500 starting coins.
A new book from an advertising friend:
"My Steam Ming Dynasty" by Gu Ququ
The twenty-eighth year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty.
Beside the Great Wall, the Northern Barbarians using shamanic magic were tenaciously resisting the Ming Dynasty's steam troops. Blood and tears intertwined into a spiral and kept rising.
In Yingtian Mansion, soldiers wearing steam armor carried flintlock guns and were patrolling the streets sonorously.
In the Jinyiwei camp in the inner street, countless Jinyiwei flags are monitoring the officials through telegraphs.
Looking up, the giant coal-burning aircraft was faithfully guarding the imperial city in the sky.
In a quaint train station, a steam train that was constantly emitting black smoke slowly entered the platform.
In the freight car, the steam mobile gun carriage controlled by complex gear transmission is getting off the station in an orderly manner and transported to the Shenji Camp on the outskirts of the city.
Penke, who was standing on the platform, looked at all this intoxication and grinned.
This is an era when mystery is fading, and science is rising.
This is the best of times and the worst of times.
