At the same time, Sihang Warehouse. ． *m
Wang Jiageng leaned against the wall and was recovering from his injuries with his eyes closed.
Wang Jiageng's expression was very calm, but he was actually suffering inside.
Because it was a prison temporarily converted from a warehouse, there were no windows, and the ventilation conditions were extremely poor. In addition, dozens of people were imprisoned in one room, and all of these dozens of people were working as coolies. There is inevitably a smell, so even though he was only held for two days, the smell in the cell has already become very unpleasant.
However, Wang Jiageng didn't care about this. He was also a soldier. When the conditions were the worst, they even had to fight among the dead. The smell was much worse than now, so didn't they still have to endure it? Therefore, Wang Jiageng doesn't care about the harsh conditions in the prison. The only thing he cares about is when can he be released
The situation at home is not optimistic. Because of the war, prices in Shanghai have risen. With the little money Wang Jiageng earned from working hard on the dock, he can barely maintain the livelihood of his family of four. Now he is in jail, and his sister still needs When I was in college, my wife was so weak after giving birth that she needed to stay in bed. The family suddenly had no source of income.
Thinking of his sister who is in school, his wife who is bedridden, and their young child who is waiting to be fed, Wang Jiageng is simply heartbroken!
Wang Jiageng could not imagine how his wife, children and sisters would live after he died and was executed.
It was also at this time that Wang Jiageng felt a little regretful. As the old saying goes, how can the eggs be intact when the nest is overturned? If the country were to perish and the world was so vast, where would he be able to place his small family? He originally thought he could barely survive under the Japanese and puppet rule, but now he was completely wrong.
However, it seems that it is too late to regret now, and now there is no chance to resist.
Because the traitors in the Broadway Building have already announced that all of them, veterans of the Communist Party, without exception, will be taken to Tilan Bridge for execution!
Realizing that time is running out, the veterans in the cells are very anxious.
There are also heartbroken ones who hide in the corner of the cell crying and wiping away tears.
"Why are you crying?" A loud voice yelled impatiently, "Are you still a man? Your head is only a scar the size of a bowl, and you are a veteran. Isn't it a shame?!"
"I'm not crying for myself." The veteran hiding in the corner protested, "I'm crying for my baby. Unfortunately, my baby was just born, but his mother died in childbirth and couldn't even drink. A mouthful of milk, I only had rice soup to survive. Now that I have been arrested, my child will starve to death. Unfortunately, he is only half a month old and has not even had time to open his eyes. What about this world?" said By the end, the veteran was crying loudly.
The veteran's cry affected more veterans, and the cell suddenly burst into tears.
The old veteran with a loud voice stopped saying anything. Instead, he squatted on the ground and wiped his eyes.
Wang Jiageng has always thought that he has a heart of stone. He has never cried since his father died when he was seven years old. However, at this moment, Wang Jiageng couldn't help but shed tears. They say that men don't shed tears lightly. That's because It’s not time to be sad yet! When it comes to being really sad, what man doesn’t shed tears
I was crying sadly, but suddenly there was the sound of messy footsteps outside.
Then, the heavy iron door was opened. Before the veterans in the cell could react, National Army veterans were pushed in from outside the door one after another. Another group of National Army veterans were killed by the dogs of Broadway Building. The traitors were caught, and all these veterans had bruises on their noses, swollen faces, and bruises, and they had obviously received a severe beating.
A veteran was injured in his leg and moved a little slower, so he was immediately beaten severely.
"Get in!" A secret agent from the Broadway Building hit the veteran on the back with the butt of his rifle, and the veteran immediately fell into the door with a groan. Through the light of the streetlight coming from outside the door, Wang Jiageng was surprised to find, The veteran who fell to the ground turned out to be Lu Deming.
"Xiao Ming?!" Wang Jiageng rushed forward and picked up the veteran, focusing his attention on who else was Lu Deming.
"Camp seat?" When Lu Deming looked up and saw Wang Jiageng, he looked surprised at first, and then said sadly, "I didn't expect you to be arrested as well. What will happen to my sister-in-law, nephew, and Jiayi now?"
Wang Jiageng sighed, his head immediately drooped, and said, "Who says it's not the case?"
Lu Deming wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and asked Wang Jiageng: "Yingzuo, tell me honestly, do you regret it now?"
Lui Deming was referring to the fact that people from the patrol camp came to them and persuaded them to join the patrol camp, and promised that they would take good care of Wang Jiageng's wife and children. Unfortunately, Wang Jiageng just wanted to live a happy life with his wife, children and sister at that time, so He refused the patrol camp's lobbying, and the commotion was not very pleasant at the time.
"Regret?" Wang Jiageng said with a wry smile, "Is regret useful?"
Lu Deming insisted: "Yingzuo, just say it, won't you regret it later?"
"Okay, let me tell you, I regret it, even my intestines turn green." Wang Jiageng shook his head and sighed, "But what's the use? There is no regret in buying medicine in this world."
A strange smile suddenly appeared on Lu Deming's face, and he whispered: "There is no regret medicine in this world. Once many things are missed, there is indeed no chance to start over. But if you just want to join the patrol camp, you may not There is no chance to start over again!”
"Isn't there necessarily no chance to start over again?" Wang Jiageng's eyes suddenly narrowed when he heard this. From Lu Deming's words, Wang Jiageng heard a different meaning, but he was not sure, so he asked in a low voice, "Xiao Ming, what did you just say?" There seems to be something else in this statement? What does it mean to start over from the beginning?"
Lu Deming followed Wang Jiageng's ear and said, "Yingzuo, let me tell you the truth. After I escaped from the Broadway Building, I went to join the patrol camp in the Western Concession."
"I've guessed this a long time ago." Wang Jiageng nodded, "I know you will definitely go."
Lu Deming shook his head and said: "But you can't guess the camp location. I and the dozen brothers who escaped from prison with me were all rescued by the patrol camp."
"Oh, really? You were actually rescued." This Wang Jiageng really didn't expect it.
After a pause, Wang Jiageng continued: "But why did you let Broadway Tower arrest you again?"
"Catch?" Lu Deming snorted and said disdainfully, "Even the people from Broadway Building want to catch me?"
"What do you mean? Could it be that you were not arrested, but..." Wang Jiageng stopped talking at this point, but his heart began to beat wildly. If his guess is true, it means As things still turn around, it means that he may still escape this disaster and be reunited with his wife and children!
"That's right!" Lu Deming nodded and said, "We were ordered to break into the Sihang Warehouse as an internal response!"
"Internal response? Us?" Wang Jiageng asked urgently, "Xiao Ming, you mean you are not the only one?"
"There must be dozens of people." Lu Deming whispered, "And they all came in with guns. There are also people from our patrol camp here at the Broadway Building. They managed to get the guns in."
After finishing speaking, Lu Deming took out a handful of Brownings from his sleeve.
Lang Ning pistol, Wang Jiageng's eyes immediately lit up, it would be easier to have a gun!
But the next moment, Wang Jiageng's eyes dimmed again, and he whispered: "But according to my observation, there seems to be a lot of security force in Sihang Warehouse, at least three to five hundred people, and the Broadway Building is not very far away from here. Far away, the Japanese military police are also nearby, and with just a few dozen of you, I'm afraid they are no match."
"You don't have to worry about this, Camp Base." Lu Deming said cheerfully, "Our patrol camp wants to rescue people, how can we only come with a few dozen people? You are my old commander, so I will tell you To be honest, our patrol battalion dispatched a full regiment of troops for this operation, and Commander Xu personally led the team!"
After a pause, Lu Deming added: "Our mission is just to respond and protect the detained brothers after the rescue operation begins, so as to prevent the people on Broadway from jumping over the wall and using the brothers as hostages to threaten the patrol camp. In this case The patrol battalion is very passive."
"So that's it." Wang Jiageng whispered, "Can I help you?"
"It would be great if you can help us in Yingzuo." Lu Deming whispered, "You know many people in Yingzuo, and your prestige among the veterans of the National Army who are stranded in Shanghai is also relatively high. If you can come forward, we will help our brothers." If we are organized, then when we break through, we will be more efficient and there will be fewer casualties."
"This is no problem." Wang Jiageng said in a low voice.
There are more than fifty veterans detained in Wang Jiageng's cell, five of whom are officers.
At that moment, Wang Jiageng summoned the other five officers in the cell together, and quietly told those officers the news brought by Lu Deming. The officers were greatly excited after hearing the news, and immediately handed over their subordinates. A dozen brothers held a small meeting and announced the news of the rescue.
At the same time, the same scene was repeated in more than 60 other cells. In fact, the number of National Army veterans captured by the Broadway Building this time was far more than a thousand, and as many as three thousand. There were so many people that almost all the sixty large warehouses in the six-story building of Sihang Warehouse were filled.
More than 3,000 National Army veterans detained in more than 60 cells on the sixth floor of the Sihang Warehouse were quickly communicating with each other. However, the agents in the Broadway Building who were on guard outside were unaware that the time had quickly reached ten o'clock in the night. After another quarter of an hour, with a red signal flare taking off, the rescue operation officially began!
