Espionage: I became sworn brothers with Zheng Yaoxian at the beginning, and became the Seventh Broth

Chapter 957 Hongmen

Filled with curiosity and doubt, Ye Shaohong rode in Dai Yunong's car and arrived at the entrance of a courtyard.

When Ye Shaohong got out of the car and saw the scene before him, he immediately stopped.

He turned around and looked at Dai Yunong.

"Hongmen, Xihuashan?"

"Director, why did you bring me here?"

Ye Shaohong's surprise and doubt are understandable.

Despite their vast influence and numerous members, the Green Gang and the Red Gang have extensive influence across China and are closely connected with the Nationalist government.

But ultimately, they are still two different types of people.

One is a street thug, the other is a politician sitting high in the temple.

Now, they're together again.

This made Ye Shaohong think deeply, and he couldn't help but ask a question.

"Don't rush, come inside with me, and you'll see."

Dai Yunong chuckled softly, patted Ye Shaohong on the shoulder, and then took the lead into the front courtyard.

Mao Renfeng also had a smile on his face.

"Let's go."

"I know what you're thinking, don't worry, there's no danger!"

After saying that, Mao Renfeng, with his big belly sticking out, followed behind Dai Yunong and walked into the courtyard.

Looking at the two figures ahead, Ye Shaohong curled his lip in disdain.

"Danger?"

"With my skills, Ye Shaohong, I really don't believe anyone can hurt me!"

"Oh, right, except for Brother Yan Shuangying!"

After muttering to himself, Ye Shaohong reached out and touched the gun tucked into his waistband before reluctantly following the two into the courtyard ahead.

Upon entering, his eyebrows immediately twitched.

The defenses in this courtyard are very tight.

With just that quick glance, Ye Shaohong spotted more than a dozen gunmen in the shadows.

These people must all possess considerable combat strength.

He probably has people on his hands too.

Ye Shaohong could sense that murderous aura from afar.

As they ventured deeper into the courtyard, they encountered a few scattered individuals.

These people, almost all of them were wearing military uniforms.

The vast majority were officers of the rank of colonel. The few individuals dressed in ordinary clothes also exuded an air of grandeur, indicating their extraordinary status.

They must be big businessmen, wealthy gentry, or government officials.

"Good guy."

"Is this still the Hongmen?"

"It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call it an officers' club!"

While admiring the sights, Ye Shaohong also encountered a few familiar faces, and he would occasionally raise his hand to greet them.

The other party also responded.

However, in their response, it was also clear that they were somewhat surprised and puzzled by Ye Shaohong's presence here.

The rest of the people they didn't recognize were chatting and exchanging greetings with Dai Yunong and Mao Renfeng.

They seemed quite familiar with each other. This made Ye Shaohong think even more deeply.

move on.

Soon, Ye Shaohong, led by Dai Yunong, walked into the depths of the mansion.

They arrived at a place that resembled a gangster's hideout.

Looking ahead, Ye Shaohong was shocked when he saw clearly the people sitting in the hall.

If the military officers and wealthy merchants gathered outside only surprised and puzzled Ye Shaohong, then the person in front of him appearing here was enough to shock him.

Who is he?

Hu Zongnan.

That's the one, a graduate of the first class of the Whampoa Military Academy, one of the five tiger generals of the bald-headed Chiang Kai-shek.

He was a high-ranking official in the Nationalist government, on par with Chen Cheng, Gu Zhutong, Liu Zhi, and Jiang Dingwen.

How did he end up here?

Are they having a secret rendezvous in the military?

Oh... no, that's not right.

As far as Ye Shaohong knew, Hu Zongnan and Dai Yunong had always had a close relationship.

It can be said that Dai Yunong's biggest backer in the military was this person.

Their relationship dates back to before Dai Yunong entered the Whampoa Military Academy.

Back then, Dai Yunong was a street thug who spent his days wandering around Hangzhou, doing petty theft to make a living.

Then he met Hu Zongnan.

The two had a very pleasant conversation.

During that time, Hu Zongnan also helped Dai Yunong a lot, giving him a considerable amount of money. In a way, Hu Zongnan was a benefactor to Dai Yunong.

When Hu Zongnan went to study at Whampoa Military Academy, Dai Yunong received financial assistance from Mao Renfeng and went to Guangdong Province, the two met again.

From that day on, the two of them got back together.

They became close friends.

Thinking of this, Ye Shaohong couldn't help but look at Dai Yunong and Mao Renfeng again.

He suddenly laughed.

Because Ye Shaohong remembered something.

Judging from these two benefactors of Dai Yunong, Dai Yunong himself was indeed blessed with good fortune.

Even before he rose to prominence, he had already made the acquaintance of several influential people.

For example, Hu Zongnan, Mao Renfeng, Du Asheng, Wang Yuqiao...

Dai Yunong is indeed remarkable. Originally, he was just a street thug, yet he gained the favor of these future big shots.

He seized the opportunity and, step by step, has come this far.

In this light, Dai Yunong seems to have a life trajectory that resembles that of a chosen one.

really.

Behind every successful person lies an extraordinary experience.

"Yu Nong, you're too late!"

"Sit down quickly!"

Just as Ye Shaohong was lost in thought, Hu Zongnan, who was sitting at the head of the table, laughed loudly and greeted Dai Yunong.

"Brother, this isn't my fault."

"I just went to see the old man," Dai Yunong said with a light laugh, and stepped forward.

Mao Renfeng and Ye Shaohong followed Dai Yunong into the hall.

They did not choose to sit down.

Instead, he stood behind Dai Yunong and watched quietly.

Taking advantage of this moment, Ye Shaohong quietly nudged Mao Renfeng's arm.

She gave him a wink.

"Brother Mao!"

"What's going on?"

"This?"

"Hey, don't you know? This is the Tianhua Mountain of the Hongmen, and it's also the territory of Chief Hu and Director."

"Territory?"

"Could it be...?" Ye Shaohong looked at Mao Renfeng with surprise and confusion.

"Yes."

"Commander Hu is the leader of Tianhua Mountain in the Hongmen, and our Director is the Second Marshal of Tianhua Mountain!"

Mao Renfeng was known for his outrageous statements; he bluntly dropped a bombshell on Ye Shaohong.

This truly stunned Ye Shaohong.

Good guy.

When did this happen? How did Hu Zongnan and Dai Yunong get involved with the Hongmen?

What is Dai Yunong planning to do by bringing him here today?

Ye Shaohong's question remains unanswered.

Mao Renfeng, standing to the side, suddenly nudged Ye Shaohong with his shoulder. After attracting Ye Shaohong's attention, Mao Renfeng then told him a core secret within the Military Intelligence Bureau. "You're curious about how the Director has connections with the Hongmen, aren't you?"

"This is normal."

"Because of Commander Hu and Director, they gained the appreciation of Boss Situ of the North American Zhigongtang, so they were specially allowed to open their own gates."

"This Xihua Mountain lineage is also a direct descendant of the Hongmen!"

"Oh, and let me tell you something secret: almost all of our core members within the Military Intelligence Bureau are members of the Xihuashan Society!"

"Including your fourth brother Xu Baichuan and your fifth brother Wang Tianfeng!"

"It's the sixth brother..."
