War of Resistance: Glory of the Beasts

Chapter 428 How to hide? (Thanks to 'quiet' for the 500 reward)

Datong.

At noon, under the camphor tree, there was a "Xiangyang Bookstore". The door of the bookstore was open, but there were not many customers coming in. Inside the room, there was only a man in a long gown, walking back and forth in front of the bookshelf with his hands behind his back. On the newspaper behind him, the words "Red Bandit" were clearly written.

Xu Chaoyang has arrived.

I just walked to this bookstore from the train station. I took the wrong turn once and finally found it after asking someone.

"Boss, what are you going to do with the celery you bought?"

There were voices coming from the backyard, but Xu Chaoyang was happy when he heard the answer...

"Building a house, find two bricks and use them as beams for the celery rack."

The words really stink.

"Why don't you find a bow, put it on and shoot it."

"What do you think we should do with celery? We'll take celery to the East China Sea and carve the words 'Ruyi Jingu Bang' on the bottom of the sea, and wait for Monkey King to come and get it, okay?"

"I'll make you guys die of anger every day..."

The door curtain was lifted, and at that moment, Xu Chaoyang lowered his head and continued to pretend to read in front of the bookshelf.

The bookstore owner, who was also wearing a long gown, glasses on his nose, and holding a small wooden stick in his mouth as a toothpick, looked cultured. He glanced at the room where only Xu Chaoyang was. Without waiting for him to say anything, the door curtain behind him was lifted again, and a young man dressed as a waiter and wearing a melon-shaped hat rushed into the room, his belt still holding in his hand.

"Have you been there?"

The boss didn't even have time to respond to Xu Chaoyang and turned around to ask.

The waiter looked aggrieved and rubbed his stomach with his hand: "Let's go to the thatched house..."

threw up.

The bookstore owner twisted his mouth and spit out, almost instinctively starting to spit out sweet words: "You pooped right after eating? Then why are you still trying to help? Why don't you just pour the food?"

"Don't you know that there won't be anyone to serve customers in the store after you leave?"

"Then can't you just let out a whistle when you go to the toilet? Can you find someone to take your place for a while?"

As he spoke, the bookstore owner grabbed the clerk's clothes by his shoulders and let go after he finished speaking: "Damn it!"

After the words fell, he ran towards Xu Chaoyang and said, "Sorry to be objective, my friend is ignorant."

Seeing Xu Chaoyang standing in front of a book called "History of Architecture", he asked, "Does the guest like Mr. Liang's book?"

Xu Chaoyang didn't say anything. He took out the book "History of Architecture", turned to page 16, folded a corner of the new book in front of the bookstore owner, and closed it again. Then, he looked at him with a smile.

The man seemed to have suddenly realized something. He first glanced outside the house slowly and calmly, then quickly smiled and whispered, "Sir, I have a few books by Mr. Liang in my room. How about taking a look in the backyard?"

"Okay." After Xu Chaoyang responded simply, he followed the direction the bookstore owner was leading and walked towards the door leading to the backyard.

Only after passing through a backyard with a chicken coop and a pigpen can you enter the house.

"Captain Xu, you're here!"

The bookstore owner closed the door and said anxiously, "You've been waiting for me for the past few days. Your eyes have become flat!"

Xu Chaoyang's mouth curled up unconsciously, and he sighed: "I love to listen to this noise in my life."

The bookstore owner even made Xu Chaoyang apologize: "Before we came here, Xia Gong told us to find someone with a Northeastern accent so that Captain Xu would feel more comfortable. It seems that Xia Gong was right."

"Mr. Xia?"

The bookstore owner immediately said, "Oh, according to what you said, Xia Gong is my boss." "But what they said is right. In the eyes of us Northeasterners, the lice in the Northeast have double eyelids and the nits have patterns."

Xu Chaoyang waved his hands quickly, fearing that he would not be able to hold him back if he opened his mouth.

"Have all my people arrived?"

"Captain Xu, most of the 217th Regiment has arrived and has been sent off by the DT Municipal Party Committee. You don't know that the DT Municipal Party Committee has been busy transporting the soldiers' families since you came here, and has been busy until now. You are the last one among them."

Xu Chaoyang nodded and asked again: "Are all of them here?"

"Captain Xu, you'll have to go back home and count the numbers yourself. Anyway, there were 37 people who showed up at my Xiangyang Bookstore. I handed them over to the DT Municipal Party Committee. As for how many people went to other contact points in Datong, I may not be able to answer. As you know, people in our line of work have single-line contacts, so it's less likely to go wrong."

Xu Chaoyang couldn’t ask further questions. What else could he ask?

"What's the situation here now?"

The bookstore owner poured a bowl of water for Xu Chaoyang, sat down next to the table, pressed his elbow against the table and said, "The situation is very good!"

"After the disbandment of the Northeast Army, we expanded the liberated areas, and now more people don't have to suffer..."

He raised his eyes and glanced at Xu Chaoyang: "We have to thank you for this, Commander Xu. The weapons you transported gave us confidence. At Laoshan, when the comrades showed up, they were all holding Liao 13-type rifles. The Northeast Army couldn't resist at all... uh..."

It was only then that the bookstore owner remembered Xu Chaoyang's background, and for a moment he felt a little embarrassed.

Xu Chaoyang didn't say much. He just waved his hand as if he wanted to let the matter go without saying anything.

What could he say?
How to say?
The facts are there!
During the Xi'an Incident, the diary writer was captured by Sun Mingjiu. No matter how scheming people in Nanjing were, would Song Xilian, Boss Dai, and Chen Cheng have to rush to Xi'an to show their loyalty and "die with him"?

What about the Northeast Army?

Xiao Liuzi followed the diarist to Nanjing, and his subordinates were divided into two factions on the spot. He Zhuguo, Wang Yizhe, and Yu Xuezhong were the high-ranking officers at the time. They tried their best to suppress the low-ranking officers and told them not to worry. "Making a fuss" would not solve any problems, and it was impossible to rescue Xiao Liuzi by force. How did you save him? Xiao Liuzi followed him on his own, not tied up by someone. Moreover, after arriving in Nanjing, he was sentenced to ten years by the military court in the morning, and the diarist asked for amnesty in the afternoon... At this time, your Northeast Army provoked a war, what fun?

But the people below refused to accept it. They actually thought that the three giants did not intend to save Xiao Liuzi!

Sun Mingjiu issued an assassination order, and his secret service company commander Yu Wenjun assassinated Wang Yize, which frightened He Zhuguo so much that he ran to "Yang Mansion" to seek refuge!
If you think with your head, think with your heels, think carefully, could it be that Wang Yize didn't save Xiao Liuzi? He was a participant in the "Yang Chang Incident", how could he not save Xiao Liuzi?
Can it?

But Wang Yize, the then deputy commander of the corps and the top leader of the 67th Army, died. Yu Wenjun fired more than ten shots at him, resulting in Wang Yize being shot nine times and dying.

What a reincarnation this is! Wang Yize, who participated in the "Yang Chang Rebellion" back then, died in the "February 2 Incident". Just like that, the Northeast Army completely fell apart!

The 67th Army turned around and surrendered directly to the person who wrote the diary. Sun Mingjiu became a traitor and Yu Wenjun was disemboweled, and the whole incident came to an end.

Even so, Xiao Liuzi said in an interview in his later years: "I am just this kind of person. I have to take responsibility for what I do no matter what. It has nothing to do with others." He still thinks he is very chivalrous!
He did not say what happened to the Northeast Army after he followed the diary writer.
He did not say that he had suffered a disastrous defeat in Rehe, had given up during the War of Resistance at the Great Wall, and had rushed forward to take responsibility after the Xi'an Incident because of a sense of brotherhood, causing the entire Northeast Army to completely disappear.

He did not say that even if the 67th Army surrendered to the writer of the diary, they could only serve as cannon fodder. After the retreat from Songzheyuan, they replaced the 29th Army to fight against the Japanese invaders on the Jinpu Line. When they could no longer hold on, they retreated to Xinxiang for rest and were later transferred to the Songhu battlefield. The army commander Wu Keren became the first army commander to die on the Songhu battlefield!

He has killed people!
"Captain Xu, I am also from the Northeast. I can understand you on some things."

When the bookstore owner said this, Xu Chaoyang could only smile bitterly.

Then, the bookstore owner called out to the person behind him: "Old Li, come over and change some hot water."

A moment later, a man with a square face and glasses came in, carrying a thermos with a mesh surface, and stood in front of the kang table to fill the kettle with water...

The moment Xu Chaoyang looked up, he found that the other person was looking at him with a smile.

He almost couldn't stand up, his mouth was open, but he forced himself to control himself and didn't make any sound, so he didn't shout out the word "Chief"!
This person may be able to hide in front of anyone in this era, but how can he hide in front of Xu Chaoyang?

　Thanks to 'quiet' for the 500 reward, thanks brother, thank you very much, I am very grateful.

　　It’s so late, I’ve just sorted it out. Sorry, there’s more, there’s more.
