Chapter 167: The Hongmen Banquet of a Narrow Escape
It was already past ten o'clock in the morning when Lin Aofeng returned to the hotel. After sending Cao Yong, who was waiting for his return, Lin Aofeng, who was sleepless, sat alone in the room and started to be stunned: "Who will that person be? Why did he appear at this time to remind me?! Could it be that he is our own person who has entered the Military Control Commission?!"
Just as puzzles that could not be found flashed through Lin Aofeng's mind, Qian | Da | Jun walked into Jiang Jieshi's study with a telegram: "Commission, the third war zone is urgently powered!"
Jiang|Jiashi looked up at Qian|Dajun asked, "What happened to Mo San again?!"
Qian | Dajun replied: "The commission is good news. Lin Aofeng and his men arrived at the Third War Zone safely. Gu | Mo | San Laidian wanted to place the Independent Eighth Brigade, which was trained in Wuhan, into his Third War Zone."
"This Gu Mo San is a good plan!" Jiang Jie Shi laughed and continued: "Lin Aofeng is a general who can attack and defend. Although our army has a short-term advantage in the battle of Xuzhou, the defense line has been loosened in the face of the crazy attack of the Japanese army. After the end of the Battle of Xuzhou, Japan's next goal is Wuhan.
"Commissioner, what do you mean? Let Lin Aofeng command the battle in Wuhan?!" Qian Dajun asked in disbelief.
Jiang|Jieshi sighed deeply, stood up and walked around the desk, walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, pushed open the floor-to-ceiling window and walked to the balcony, looking at the night view of Wuhan, and became stunned. Before he knew it, a breeze blew, Jiang|Jieshi came back to his senses and looked at Qian|Dajun and said: "Generate power to Gu|Mo|Santh China in the name of the Ministry of Military Affairs, and agreed to be incorporated into the Third War Zone of the Independent Eighth Brigade."
"Yes!" Qian Dajun recorded Jiang|Kaishi's order and turned around and left Jiang|Kaishi's office...
There was nothing to say all night. The next morning, Lin Aofeng finished washing up and walked to the lobby downstairs. He had just picked up the bowl and had not had time to have breakfast. A jeep drove from a distance and stopped at the door of the hotel. A lieutenant colonel got out of the car and walked into the hotel quickly. His eyes were swept in the lobby. Lin Aofeng soon entered the adjutant's vision. The adjutant walked to Lin Aofeng in two steps and saluted: "General Lin, I will ask you to go to the headquarters on the order of Chief Gu."
Lin Aofeng glanced at the adjutant and asked, "Can you wait for me for a while and let me finish the meal?"
The adjutant scratched his head awkwardly and said embarrassedly: "I'm sorry, I'm abrupt! Please forgive me, Chief Lin."
Lin Aofeng picked up a piece of dried tofu and said, "You came so early, you must have not eaten the meal! Sit down and eat together! We will go together after we finish eating."
"No need! Chief Lin, eat slowly, I'll wait for you in the car outside!" After that, the adjutant saluted Lin Aofeng, turned around and walked out of the hotel...
"Director, just got the news that Chairman Jiang has approved Gu Mo San's request to incorporate Lin Aofeng's troops into the Third War Zone."
"What?!" Mao | Qi | Wu was shocked when he heard his subordinate's report, and walked back and forth between the room twice, asking, "Does the bureau have any orders?"
"The telegram from the bureau only has four words, 'As usual'!"
"Hiss!" Mao|Qi|Wu gasped and said to himself: "Why must the director remove Lin Aofeng?! Aren't he afraid of the commissioner's blame?!" After hesitating for a while, Mao|Qi|Wu said lightly: "You wash it first!"
"Yes!" his subordinate hesitated: "Then our plan?!"
Mao|Qi|5's face changed and he scolded: "Do you still want me to teach you?! Everything is done according to the command of the bureau!"
"Yes!" The subordinates left Mao Qi Wu's room in a panic.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Captain Gu, okay!" An hour later, Lin Aofeng walked into Gu Mosan's office and saluted. Gu Mosan said with a smile: "Chenxi, there are no outsiders here, do you need to be polite to me?! Come on, sit down!" Gu Mosan called Lin Aofeng to the sofa, sat down, and then said: "Chenxi, the Ministry of Military Affairs has issued an order to incorporate your unit into the battle sequence of the Third War Zone. It's just an order!" After that, Gu Mosan pushed the folder on the coffee table to Lin Aofeng.
Lin Aofeng picked up the folder, opened it and looked at the contents inside carefully. After putting down the folder, he stood up suddenly and saluted Gu Mo San. Gu Mo San nodded with satisfaction and said, "Chenxi, your troops arrive in Shangrao in five days. I will give you another three days off. I will complete your personal matters!"
"Yes! Thank you, Chief Gu!" Lin Aofeng saluted Gu Mo San again...
After leaving the war zone commander, Lin Aofeng had no mood to wander at this time. He made an excuse and received a batch of ammunition from the small arsenal in the war zone command, and hurried back to the hotel...
"Hostel!" When he returned to his room, Liu Changsheng and Cao Yong, who had been waiting inside, stood up immediately when they saw Lin Aofeng. Lin Aofeng closed the door, signaled them to sit down, and asked, "How is the situation on the other side of the Reunion Tower?!"
Liu Changsheng took out the map drawn not long ago and said, "The brigade, the reunion building has nothing on the surface, but through our observation, this restaurant has been completely controlled by the Military Control Commission. In addition, the Military Control Commission has also arranged snipers in the surrounding buildings. I discussed with Cao Yong that we will follow you to the Reunion Building. When you enter the restaurant, we will kill all the snipers who ambushed the Military Control Commission around us."
Lin Aofeng smiled and picked up the thermos bottle, poured water into the cup and said, "Don't you think of the Military Control Commission as a fool, okay?! Use your brain more often. Since Mao | Qi | Wu dared to invite me so blatantly, he would definitely think that you would follow me. I guess when I leave here, the Military Control Commission will send someone to surround the place to prevent you from cooperating with me."
"Host, what should we do?" Cao Yong asked anxiously.
Lin Aofeng said, "I'll just go to the banquet alone. You two can guarantee the safety of the brothers here before I come back." As he said, Lin Aofeng walked to the bed and came from under the pillow, took out a letter and walked to Liu Changsheng and Cao Yong, handed the letter to Cao Yong, and said, "If I don't come back to the banquet, when the Chief of Staff comes, you can hand him this letter."
"Host!" Cao Yong wanted to say a few more words, but Lin Aofeng interrupted with a smile: "Okay, you guys go! Let me have a good rest."
"Yes!" Liu Changsheng and Cao Yong looked at each other, turned around three times, and walked out of Lin Aofeng's room with unwillingness.
When Liu Changsheng and Cao Yong walked out of the room and closed the door, Lin Aofeng took the box next to the door to the table, closed the window, pulled down the curtains, opened the box, and handful of neatly placed pistols and American grenades reflected in Lin Aofeng's eyes. Lin Aofeng picked up a gun casually, checked it, and pressed the bullet into the magazine with skillful movements.
"Dong, dun, dun" Just after 4:30 pm, Lin Aofeng's door was knocked. Lin Aofeng opened the door and saw a young man wearing a top hat and a suit and asked, "What's the matter?!"
The young man nodded and replied, "Our boss asked me to pick you up to the reunion building for the banquet!"
"Wait a minute!" Lin Aofeng turned around and walked to the clothes rack, took the windbreaker hanging on it, and put it on his body and walked out of the room. Just as Lin Aofeng followed the young man downstairs, everyone in the other room walked out of their respective rooms at the same time. Ma Tian looked at the car that was leaving, angrily patted the pillar beside him, and said, "You can't let the voyage go alone." After that, when Ma Tian was about to chase the car, a truck drove out from the corner and parked at the door of the hotel. Then a group of soldiers with live ammunition jumped out of the truck and blocked the door of the hotel.
Liu Changsheng and Cao Yong looked at each other, and Cao Yong said, "Brothers, the heroes will not suffer any loss in front of us. Let's go in!" Seeing that the companions next to him did not move, Cao Yong immediately frowned and asked coldly, "What?! The occupants are not dead yet? Why don't they even listen to his orders?!"
"Let's go in?" Erzhuang roared angrily and turned his head to walk into the hotel. The others looked at me, and I looked at you, followed Erzhuang into the hotel with a dejected look.
Perhaps it was the Military Control Commission in Shangrao that covered the sky, or perhaps the others in the Third War Zone Command wanted Lin Aofeng's life. Anyway, it was the usually noisy street, which seemed particularly quiet today. Because there was no one on the road, the car drove very quickly. It took only half an hour to arrive.
"Brother Chenxi, you are finally here, but I'm going to have a good time to wait!" Mao|Qi|5 saw Lin Aofeng get out of the car and hurriedly greeted him. Lin Aofeng smiled and said, "Brother Qi Wu, I'm really embarrassed. I've delayed something! I'll punish myself for three cups later!"
"No need to punish! No need to punish! It's good to come! Let's go in and eat while talking!" After that, Mao|Qi|5 called Lin Aofeng to walk into the restaurant.
Walking into the restaurant, Lin Aofeng glanced around the environment in the lobby, smiled and said sarcastically: "Brother Qi Wu, it's such a big deal! I invited me to dinner and actually booked the entire restaurant!"
"There is there! Eating requires the environment! I don't want to be disturbed by others when I eat halfway through! Let's go upstairs!" After saying that, Mao|Qi|5 gave a look to the people around me, and then smiled and called Lin Aofeng upstairs.
After about three or four minutes, Lin Aofeng followed Mao|Qi|5 to the fifth floor of the restaurant. This floor had nothing except a round table and two chairs facing each other. Mao|Qi|5 called Lin Aofeng to take his seat and clapped his hands. Several shopmates dressed in the shop carried the tray and brought the dishes.
While serving the food, Mao | Qi | Wu asked, "Brother Chenxi, when was the last time we drank?!"
Lin Aofeng smiled bitterly and replied, "I have experienced so much, I forgot." Then he asked, "Does Brother Qi still remember it?"
