February 1947 was the most pleasant time in Luying City when the soft willows were blowing and the spring breeze was rustling. However, in Zhan Shou'an's eyes, the pedestrians on the busiest street in Luying City seemed to be...
His face was dull as if he had lost his soul, and he was walking in a hurry. He no longer had the joy that filled his cheeks just after the victory of the Anti-Japanese War.
The 89th Brigade of the Kuomintang was in charge of the defense outside the city. The brigade commander was Zhan Shouping. Seeing his troops in defeat, he immediately adjusted his tactics and asked all participants of the 89th Brigade to retreat to the last line of defense at the gate of the city. He
This tactical adjustment is to concentrate all the peripheral troops on the last line of defense at the city gate. Heavy weapons are fully utilized in this vast plain, causing considerable losses to the People's Liberation Army, and at the same time resisting the People's Liberation Army's attacks again and again.
, the battle is in a stalemate stage.
And just an hour before the battle started, Cai Dayong was interrogating a person in the torture room of the Brigade Camp Secrecy Bureau Supervision Team. Standing next to him, Liu Jianing, the confidential secretary of the Secrecy Bureau, kept recording...
"Huang Dejiang, a native of Liaotong, is the proprietor of Lvyingju Bank. He graduated from the Economics Department of Mansion University. He joined the Communist Party in the 32nd year of the Republic of China and is currently the secretary of the underground district committee."
"Mr. Huang, please point it out if I'm wrong about anything I said." After finishing speaking, Cai Dayong showed a sinister smile.
"Mr. Huang, I have been investigating you for half a year. I am not interested in anything else. Just tell me, who is the person you want to contact today?"
Huang Dejiang, who was tied to the pillar, looked at Cai Dayong and did not speak. He just laughed coldly.
"Mr. Huang, you can take a look. There are instruments of torture in every corner of this room. Look at you, you must be quite old. If all the instruments of torture were used on you, would you be able to bear it?
"
"You can't bear it. Come on, why should you suffer that!"
"You will save yourself some physical pain, but you will still lose your life in the end. Would you like to trade it for you?" Huang Dejiang looked at Cai Dayong and asked.
Hearing Huang Dejiang say this, Cai Dayong and confidential secretary Liu Jianing stopped the pen in their hands and raised their heads to look at Huang Dejiang.
"Okay, tell me, I will protect you. Seeing that the brigade is controlled by the Communist Party, our Secrecy Bureau will also withdraw to Guangzhou. Killing one more person and one less person will not help. In this way, I don't know if I kill one less person.
You can also accumulate some shady virtue. In this way, if you confess, I will let you go, and I will never make a mistake."
"Since Director Cai knows that the brigade is about to be ruled by the Communist Party, even if I confess and you let me out, the Communist Party will still not be able to spare me. Then the people's government will execute me as a traitor. I might as well die here.
A martyr."
"Then what Mr. Huang means is that if you betray him, you will still go to Guangzhou with us?"
"That's the only condition, though."
"But, what?" Cai Dayong was a little impatient. He just kept controlling his emotions. What qualifications did a prisoner have to negotiate terms with him?
"But I don't want to squeeze into the train with you, I want to take a plane."
At this time, Cai Dayong could no longer control himself. He kicked over the brazier on the ground, rushed up and grabbed Huang Dejiang's collar with both hands, and said: "You really take yourself seriously, you are just an underground district committee member."
Secretary, do you know what level of status a person has on a ticket?" As he spoke, Cai Dayong pinched Huang Dejiang's neck fiercely.
Huang Dejiang was breathing heavily and said: "I, I can, I can save the national army from losing tens of thousands of people. If I tell you again, there is a brigade in the brigade camp defense area that is about to defect to the Communists, and the relatives of the brigade are there Your Secrecy Bureau, like me, is an underground party of the Chinese Communist Party, would you dare to be interested?"
Cai Dayong let go of his hand and asked loudly: "Who?"
Huang Dejiang's face turned red and he said: "I, I..."
"I'm very interested, Mr. Huang. As long as you name those two people, I can completely consider your request."
Huang Dejiang took a deep breath and said: "The names of these two people are with me, but I want to see your director Shen Zaixin, and I want his special approval. Director Cai, it doesn't matter what you say. "After finishing speaking, Huang Dejiang looked at Cai Dayong and shook his head.
"Damn it, I really underestimated you. Your public identity is the owner of a financial village. You are indeed a businessman and you know how to do business."
"I will tell you the names of these two people, and you will take me to Guangzhou for a fair deal." After saying this, Huang Dejiang closed his eyes and rested.
...
"Travel seat, Travel seat, a medal sent by the Nanjing Ministry of National Defense."
Zhan Shouping, who was convening a meeting with company and above cadres, was interrupted by a sudden shout. Looking at the medals in front of him, Zhan Shouping said: "All of us here are our good brothers in the 89th Brigade. Back then, we Let’s fight the Japanese together, life and death. It’s worth it! But now, let’s turn our guns and let us Chinese fight the Chinese. I don’t want everyone’s sacrifice to be in vain... Tonight, all logistics and agency personnel will withdraw to Guangzhou. Only us are left..."
Zhan Shouping knew very well that the liberation of Brigade City by the Communist Party was just around the corner, and he did not want to make fearless sacrifices again, not to mention that there were people in the war room waiting for him to make a decision.
"Uprising in advance!" Zhan Shouping looked at the representatives of the underground party of the Communist Party of China in front of him and said.
"Yes, Brigadier Zhan, rise in advance. The two armies of the People's Liberation Army on the southern front have already launched an attack on your friendly forces. The battle for the Liberation Brigade camp is about to begin. Opposite the northern defense line, Brigadier Zhan, the two armies of the People's Liberation Army are already in place. , waiting for the brigade commander to turn his guns and attack the brigade camp together."
Zhan Shouping did not speak, but felt that the People's Liberation Army was moving too fast. He took the glasses on the table and looked at the combat map hanging on the wall behind him. It could be seen that Brigade City was about to become the target of liberation. .
"Brigadier Zhan, at midnight tonight, the People's Liberation Army will send an official representative from Jiangbei to sign an uprising agreement with the brigade commander and jointly finalize the battle plan. In the end, the People's Liberation Army and your army will fight side by side according to the plan to liberate the brigade city."
Zhan Shouping turned around and looked at the Communist Party representative in front of him, and sighed deeply.
"Commander Zhan, do you still have any difficulties? Just ask."
Zhan Shouping's anxiety and uneasiness can be seen in his eyes.
"Brigadier Zhan, you don't have to worry about the safety of your relatives. Our underground municipal party committee has made comprehensive arrangements. We will be responsible for sending your wife Ye Feifei and brother Zhan Shouan safely to your headquarters throughout the entire process. We will never let them go. People from the Security Bureau took them to Guangzhou."
At this time, Zhan Shouping finally straightened up and said, "Secretary Lin, I hope that someone must be present when I sign the uprising agreement."
"Say, who?"
"The instigator of this uprising."
"Dai Peiqiu."
"Yes, this Dai Peiqiu is actually the person who introduced me to my wife. She started persuading me six months ago. All this today is the result of her efforts. I am very grateful to your party. The understanding and goodwill also come from her. So before we sign the formal agreement, I hope she will be an important witness."
"Of course she is indispensable at such an important moment. Don't worry, we have arranged for someone to escort her here."
...
"I am Shen Zaixin."
"Director Shen, if you grant me a special quota to go to Guangzhou, I will tell you the names of the general who rebelled against the Communist Party and his underground party relatives in your bureau."
Shen Zaixin twitched the corners of his mouth, smiled and said, "Really."
The atmosphere in the entire torture room suddenly became quiet. Liu Jianing and Cai Dayong looked at Shen Zaixin and Huang Dejiang at the same time.
"If there is such a thing, a quota to fly to Guangzhou is nothing."
"I said, you go and catch him, and then there will be a trial. If not, you can cancel your quota. This way you have no risk."
"Aren't you afraid that we will regret it after we get the list?"
Huang Dejiang shook his head, smiled and said: "Director Shen is going to achieve unparalleled achievements, I am willing to take a gamble."
Shen Zaixin looked at Huang Dejiang and sneered softly. I felt as if the Communist Party in front of him knew his own psychological thoughts at a glance. The Kuomintang was retreating steadily, and he needed a victory. After thinking about it, he asked Liu Jianing Walked over to Cai Dayong.
Shen Zaixin took paper and pen from Cai Dayong and Liu Jianing respectively, looked at Huang Dejiang, then quickly walked to Huang Dejiang's side, and then wrote the words "Shen Zaixin" on the paper.
When Huang Dejiang saw Shen Zaixin's special approval order waving in front of him, he straightened up excitedly and said excitedly: "Okay, okay!"
"I trust you."
"Then I will first tell you the name of the relative of the general who surrendered to the Communist Party, because he is on your bureau's roster. In a moment, you can call him over and question him face to face. His name is..." This chapter has been completed!
