Wang Jiayi's little mouth immediately pouted again and said, "Brother, what you said is wrong."
"What's wrong with me?" Wang Jiageng said with a snort, "Each class has its own division of labor. Students should study, soldiers should fight, and officials should manage the place well. As for those high-level affairs, there is naturally national leadership. People worry about you. You said that you, a student at school, want to take back the power of governance. Isn’t this just a carrot and not a worry? "
Wang Jiayi retorted: "But Mr. Gu Yanwu said that every man is responsible for the rise and fall of the world."
Wang Jiageng added: "Even if the world rises and falls, everyone is responsible, it is also a man's business. You, a girl, go to the streets and do what you do? Isn't this nonsense?"
Wang Jiayi said: "Brother, you are discriminating against women."
Wang Jiageng said: "I am telling the truth. How is this discrimination?"
Seeing that the brother and sister were about to quarrel again, Yang Yuxi couldn't help but roll her eyes at Wang Jiageng and said angrily: "How can you, a brother, talk to your sister? You don't act like a brother."
"That's right, sister-in-law, let's ignore him, huh." Wang Jiayi also walked to the bed and sat down, then picked up her little nephew from Yang Yuxi's arms, kissed the baby's pink face, and said, "Xiaobao, ignore him." That bad guy of yours, bad guy!”
The baby giggled and stretched out his little hand to touch Wang Jiayi's pretty face.
Wang Jiageng was silent, but what Lu Deming said to him before he was taken away rang again in his mind: Do you really want to live like this, like a salted fish
There was nothing to say all night. When Wang Jiageng went to work at the dock the next day, he heard shocking news from the manager. The group of stevedores who were taken to the Broadway Building yesterday actually escaped from prison! Not only did they escape from prison, but while escaping from prison, they also killed a dozen agents in the Broadway Building. This is a big deal!
Wang Jiageng immediately thought of Lu Deming. Only Lu Deming could do this kind of thing!
The terminal manager also told Wang Jiageng a piece of news that made him feel heavy. Broadway Building had found out that the group of stevedores who attacked them yesterday were veterans of the National Army. Therefore, in the next few days, Hongkou, Zhabei, Longhua, and Jiangwan would be attacked. And Yangshupu and other districts carried out comprehensive manhunts, specifically to arrest the National Army veterans stranded in Shanghai!
It was also heard that these captured National Army veterans would be taken to Tilanqiao Prison for execution.
However, the terminal manager also reassured Wang Jiageng that there was no problem with his identity. He had already guaranteed the Broadway Building and assigned Wang Jiageng the job of a team leader. In fact, Wang Jiageng had worked hard and without complaint since he came to Huishan Pier. , usually there is no gossip, the manager is really very satisfied with him.
Wang Jiageng spent the next few days in agony.
On the one hand, Wang Jiageng was worried about Lu Deming and the National Army veterans who were stranded in Shanghai. On the other hand, Wang Jiageng was afraid that his identity would be exposed. Once he was taken away, there would be only two women and one baby left in the family, and his life would immediately cease. Whereabouts, every time he thinks of this, Wang Jiageng's heart feels like a knife.
However, things in the world are like this. The more you are afraid of something, the more likely it is to come.
On the third day, as soon as Wang Jiageng walked into the gate of Huishan Pier, more than a dozen secret agents in black clothes poured out from all directions. Facing the black muzzle of the gun, Wang Jiageng did not resist. Wang Jiageng was not afraid of death, but he had to worry. Once he dies, how will the orphans, widows, mother and sister in the family live
Wang Jiageng obediently restrained himself, but was not taken to Broadway Building.
Wang Jiageng and more than a hundred other stevedores who were arrested at the same time were taken to Sihang Warehouse!
As a veteran who had participated in the Battle of Songhu, Wang Jiageng was certainly no stranger to Sihang Warehouse. At first, they were still wondering what the agents of Broadway Building were doing by bringing them to Sihang Warehouse. It wasn't until they were imprisoned in Sihang Warehouse that Wang Jiageng and the others discovered that Sihang Warehouse had actually been converted into a prison!
In fact, it was not just veterans from the Japanese-occupied areas who were captured in the Sihang Warehouse. Even veterans of the National Army in the public concession and the French Concession were also affected. In less than three days, there were at least more than a thousand National Army veterans. The veterans were arrested, and there was news that at least hundreds of National Army veterans were killed in the Broadway Building during the arrests.
Broadway Building's operation to arrest National Army veterans across Shanghai immediately triggered a chain reaction. At first, only family members of veterans like Yang Yuxi and Wang Jiayi complained, and then the merchants, small workshop owners and petty bourgeoisie were affected by the arrest. There was also a joint protest.
Because these National Army veterans are young and strong, they are the best labor force.
The patrol battalion's armed protection of the student demonstrations gave these merchants, small workshop owners, and petty bourgeoisie confidence. They began to be bolder than ever before, and spoke out to the Concession Industry Bureau, asking the Concession Industry Bureau to put pressure on the Japanese and puppet government. Release veterans of the National Army who have been detained without reason.
Immediately afterwards, students also participated again and took to the streets again. Tens of thousands of students from more than a dozen universities in the public concession came to the gate of the concession's Ministry of Industry and Commerce Bureau in groups, petitioning the concession authorities and demanding that the concession authorities immediately intervene. intervened to force the puppet government to release detained National Army veterans.
"Release the hostages immediately!"
"I apologize to my family!"
"Down with Broadway Towers!"
"Down with the traitor Liang Wuyi!"
"Drive Japanese imperialism out of China!"
Wang Jiayi and Xu Xiaoya mingled among the students, waving flags and shouting slogans.
However, Xu Xiaoya was not paying attention when shouting. While shouting slogans, a pair of beautiful eyes were still searching around. A moment later, she saw the mountain leopard on the steps in front of Citibank. Almost at the same time , Zhuanshan Bao also saw Xu Xiaoya, and waved to Xu Xiaoya with a big grin.
Xu Xiaoya also smiled sweetly at Zuanshanbao and continued to shout slogans.
But before turning around, Xu Xiaoya saw that Mo Zichen was also coming.
At that moment, Xu Xiaoya bumped Wang Jiayi beside her with her arm and said loudly: "Jiayi, that guy is looking for you again."
"Who is it?" Wang Jiayi subconsciously turned her head and looked back, and then saw Mo Zichen standing on the steps in front of Citibank. Mo Zichen was more aggressive than a leopard. When she saw Wang Jiayi turned around and looked over, He immediately blew a kiss to Wang Jiayi, but received a fierce eye roll from Wang Jiayi.
Wang Jiayi was in a bad mood because her brother was arrested.
Mo Zichen immediately stood there dumbly, what is going on
When the two met again yesterday, they were still chatting and laughing. He took the opportunity to touch her little hand and didn't get angry. They hadn't seen each other all night, so how could they become an iceberg beauty
While Mo Zichen was looking at the beauty, a pair of cold eyes were looking at him through the car window.
Xu Rui and Leng Tiefeng took a car and took to the street, wanting to see the response from all walks of life in Shanghai. They had been following the parade from North Tibet Road, but in the end, Mo Zichen and Zuan Shanbao appeared outside the Ministry of Industry Bureau building. .
After seeing Mo Zichen and the Leopard, Xu Rui frowned: "Why did Lao Mo and the Leopard sneak out again?"
After hearing this, Leng Tiefeng's face immediately darkened, and he said in a deep voice, "I'm going to sneak them back right away."
After saying that, Leng Tiefeng was about to open the door, but Xu Rui reached out to stop him. Xu Rui shook his hand and said, "Forget it, we have more important things to be busy with right now. We will deal with them later."
Leng Tiefeng groaned and let go of the car's door handle.
Xu Rui patted the back of the driver's seat and said to Digua: "Digua, go to the patrol camp!"
Digua agreed, put the gear in reverse and stepped on the accelerator. The jeep roared back, then turned around and headed straight to the patrol camp station along the North Tibet Road. In order to hide his presence, Xu Rui did not let Digua drive today. His Peugeot luxury Mercedes-Benz sedan was replaced by an American Jeep.
The jeep drove past the gate of the patrol camp without attracting anyone's attention.
However, Xu Rui, who was sitting in the jeep, could see at a glance that the military spy was hidden behind the street-facing window on the second floor of the Xiaoxiang teahouse diagonally opposite. Although the window was only opened a small crack, Xu Rui could still feel it. Looking from behind the window, Xu Rui couldn't help but twitch a sneer at the corner of his mouth when he saw this scene.
At this level, you still want to track his whereabouts? Just ridiculous.
Xu Rui asked Digua to drive the jeep into a nearby alley and park it, and then took out two sets of patrol camp military uniforms prepared in advance from the trunk. After changing with Leng Tiefeng, he swaggered into the patrol camp station through the side door. Normally, Sweet Potato usually stays in the alley waiting, but today he drove away directly.
Because Xu Rui will not stay at Broadway Building in the next few days.
Besides, Xu Rui and Leng Tiefeng strode towards the side door of the patrol camp after exiting the alley.
The sentries at the side entrance of the patrol camp were as usual, nothing special, but Xu Rui and Leng Tiefeng could easily smell a hint of murderous atmosphere in the air, because there were twice as many sentries at the side entrance as usual, and all of them The expressions on the guards' faces were much more solemn than usual. Obviously, Xie Yuan had issued a combat order.
Seeing Xu Rui approaching, a second lieutenant immediately stepped forward and shouted: "Password!"
Xu Rui has returned to his original appearance at this time, but he doesn't show up much in the patrol camp, so most of the officers and soldiers in the patrol camp don't recognize him. The only ones who can recognize Xu Rui are the more than 400 people in the solitary camp. , as for the more than 6,000 officers and soldiers who later joined the patrol camp, no one knew Xu Rui.
"Drive out the Japanese pirates!" Xu Rui said as he walked forward, "Reply the order!"
"Restore China!" the second lieutenant replied, frowning and saying, "Why haven't you returned to the team until now?"
Well, Xu Rui and Leng Tiefeng are regarded as officers and soldiers of the patrol battalion who are out. However, who told Xu Rui and Leng Tiefeng to just wear the uniforms of soldiers
