Peng and Ou asked Cheng Qianfan, if he would return to the police station and take over the position of the third inspector, would he support him? What are the pros and cons?
In Peng Yuou's view, Cheng Qianfan may support it, may have different opinions, and at the same time analyze the pros and cons.
He never expected Cheng Qianfan to express his opposition clearly.
"He Guan is different from Jin Kemu." Cheng Qianfan laughed and said, "Jin Kemu is just a tough attitude towards Japan. He Guan personally went to the battlefield to fight with the Japanese, and He Guan took the initiative to join the army."
After meeting Sanbenjilang before, Cheng Qianfan speculated that it was Sanbenjilang who was behind the scenes to target He Guan and Jin Kemu's actions. He knew that Sanbenjilang had concealed some things from him, including Sanbenjilang who had already grasped the more detailed information about He Guan, at least he knew that He Guan had fought with the Japanese army on the Songhu battlefield.
"I understand the special high school class and Sanbenjilang's style and temperament. They will not let go of anti-Japanese military personnel like He Guan." Cheng Qianfan said, "If He Guan was honestly hiding in the French Concession, the Japanese might not have taken action so quickly. However, once He Guan wants to go back to the police station or even take over my position as the commander of the Third Inspector, Sanbenjilang will give orders to get rid of He Guan without hesitation."
Cheng Qianfan handed a cigarette to Peng Yuou. He played with a cigarette in his hand, pushed the glasses frame, and said, "Sanbenshi Lang will not allow a person who has a strong determination to fight against Japan and has fought with the Japanese army on the battlefield to enter the police room, and is even among the middle-level police officers in the police room."
Peng and Ou touched their bodies, found the hot box, pushed them away, and found that it was empty.
Cheng Qianfan took out the foreign fire box from his body and drew a foreign fire to help the professor ignite a cigarette.
"And, based on my guess, Sanbenjiro even has a high possibility of arranging me to kill him."
"In addition, I don't know much about He Guan's current situation, but in my impression of him, his personality is not suitable for being a lurker, which is very important."
As he said that, he lit his cigarette with the remaining fire of foreign fire, took a sip, and exhaled a white mist, "For these reasons and considerations, I firmly oppose He Guan going back to the police room."
He said and thought, "Even, in my personal opinion, I suggest He Guan leave Shanghai, or, more precisely, he should be out of the enemy's sight."
Cheng Qianfan frowned, "I can't predict when Sanben Lang will attack He Guan. To be on the safe side, it's better to transfer it."
...
"You two are worthy of being good friends." Ashes fell, Peng and Ou patted their clothes. "The organization asked He Guan's personal opinion, and he also expressed his unwillingness to go back to the police station. Of course, Comrade He Guan also expressed that if the organization makes a decision, he will unconditionally obey the organization's decision."
"If it's not bad as I expected, He Guan is eager to return to the battlefield." Cheng Qianfan said.
He knew Heguan so well, not to mention that Heguan was not the material for lurking work, this guy’s favorite thing was to go to the battlefield and kill the Japanese.
"Yes, Comrade He Guan wants to go to the army." Peng Yuou shook his head and said, "You know him. He said that if you want to go to North China to participate in the Eighth Route Army, if it is inconvenient to go to North China, he will go to Nanchang to join the New Fourth Army."
"I guessed that would be like this." Cheng Qianfan smiled. What's wrong with this.
Cheng Qianfan glanced at Peng Yuou, "Secretary Peng should have other arrangements for He Guan."
Peng Yuou was surprised, "How did you see it?"
Cheng Qianfan smiled and said, "When I heard that I firmly oppose He Guan going back to the police station, Secretary Peng, you are surprised, but you have not expressed any disagreement."
He flicked his thumb and ejected the cigarette butt, "And, Secretary Peng, your comment to He Guan at the beginning is an outstanding military talent."
The young comrade "Flame" looked at the old comrade Peng Yuou in a joking manner, "A military talent like He Guan who had had a fierce and cruel positional war with the Japanese army, is Secretary Peng willing to let him leave Shanghai?"
"You boy." Peng Yuou pointed at Cheng Qianfan and laughed, "There is nothing that can be hidden from you guys."
Looking at Cheng Qianfan, Peng and Ou said seriously, "Shanghai has been invaded for several months. Wherever the Japanese invaders go, they burned, killed, robbed, and committed all kinds of evil. The organization decided to form guerrilla forces in the suburbs and carry out anti-Japanese struggles around Shanghai."
"That's great!" Cheng Qianfan was extremely excited when he heard this. "I'm also thinking about this matter during this period. Although the Japanese occupied Shanghai, their main forces were in the city and in fact, the troops in the suburbs were weak. In response to the situation where the Japanese army lacked their troops and weak rule in the suburbs, this is a good time for our party to carry out mass work and lead the anti-Japanese struggle in the suburbs."
Cheng Qianfan's eyes seemed to shine. "The Japanese army also knew that they lacked control over the suburbs at present. The Japanese were eager to establish a puppet regime in Shanghai, just to use the power of traitors to strengthen their control over the suburbs and surrounding areas of Shanghai."
"We must do a good job in the anti-Japanese armed struggle in the suburbs before the establishment of the puppet regime in Shanghai."
As he said that, Cheng Qianfan saw Peng and Ou looking at him with a strange expression.
"What you are talking about is exactly what I discussed with some comrades from the Jiangsu Provincial Party Committee and the Shanghai Municipal Party Committee." Peng Yuou was very happy and nodded in praise. "Last year, when he met Comrade Xiangwu, Comrade Xiangwu talked about you and said that you have excellent academic performance in the infantry department of the Central Army Officer School and is a very good military talent. I didn't care much at the time. Now it seems that Comrade Xiangwu is a false statement."
When Cheng Qianfan heard this, he smiled happily and said nothing like "Comrade Xiangwu" was over-reputable.
Seeing this scene, Peng Yuou also smiled. He still remembered that when Comrade Xiangwu talked about Comrade Huo Miao, it was not like the expression of the leader talking about the outstanding soldiers of his subordinates. It was the elders' pride that they performed well for the younger generation. Peng Yuou even thought that Comrade Xiangwu had the same meaning as "comrade Xiangwu" at that time, so he talked about Cheng Qianfan's work performance and praised him. Of course, this was not a deliberate praise. "Flag" was indeed very excellent, and Peng Yuou vaguely realized that Comrade Xiangwu' seemed to be even more excited.
When he looked at Cheng Qianfan, he felt that Cheng Qianfan's expression was very interesting now, very much like the kind of happy look that he had received praise from his elders but did not disappoint his elders.
...
"In Puxi, our comrades led the Qingdong People's Anti-Japanese Guerrillas." Peng Yuou said.
"Qingdong?" Cheng Qianfan asked immediately, "What areas are mainly included?"
"The eastern part of Qingpu mainly includes Zhaoxiang, Qibao, Huangdu, Chonggu, Xujing and other places." Peng Yuou said, "The organization intends to build this area into a Qingdong Anti-Japanese Guerrilla Base."
"The Jiangsu Provincial Party Committee has established an external working committee, and the committee has made a decision to deploy some backbone comrades to support the Qingdong People's Anti-Japanese Guerrillas."
"Our party does not lack comrades with firm revolutionary enthusiasm and determination to fight against Japan." Peng Yuou said, "What we lack is military talents, especially military talents who have experienced cruel battles with the Japanese army."
"Comrade He Guan led his team to have fierce positional wars with the Japanese army, and tragic hand-to-hand combat has occurred. Such military talents are extremely rare."
"I have been considering proposing to the Outer Committee to add Comrade He Guan to the list of guerrillas assigned to support Qingpu," Peng Yuou said. "However, some other comrades believe that He Guan can play a good role by returning to the police station and relying on Jin Kemu's relationship, so the final decision has not yet been formed."
Peng and Ou knew very well that this cannot be blamed on other comrades having the idea of lurking in the French Concession Police Room. If there are people inside the French Concession Police Room, it is too important for our party’s work in the Concession:
‘Fishing Fish’, ‘Flying Fish’ lurks in the French Concession, and even the party group has established this matter is highly confidential. Only Peng Yuou knows the entire Jiangsu Provincial Party Committee and the Shanghai Municipal Party Committee, and others do not know about this situation, so they are particularly looking forward to the police station in the legal concession.
Peng Yuou asked Cheng Qianfan about his opinion, which was also considered that Cheng Qianfan knew the situation in the French Concession best. If Cheng Qianfan thought that He Guan’s return to the police room was more beneficial than disadvantages, then Peng Yuou would consider taking back his ideas and supporting He Guan’s return to the police room.
Now, Cheng Qianfan clearly expressed his attitude against He Guan returning to the police station, and Peng and Ou naturally firmly decided to arrange for He Guan to go to the Qingdong People's Anti-Japanese Guerrillas.
...
"I support Comrade He Guan to go to the Qingdong People's Anti-Japanese Guerrillas." Cheng Qianfan said, "This is indeed the most appropriate arrangement for Comrade He Guan."
Peng Yuou nodded, "I will formally give my opinions to the organization."
"How are the weapons and equipment of the guerrillas?" Cheng Qianfan said, "Do you need me to do something?"
"I know you, Vice President Xiao Cheng, have the goods." Peng Yuou said with a smile, "but there is no need for the time being."
In the late stage of the Songhu battlefield, due to poor command, the very brave national army fought against Japan in frontal combat, but when they retreated, they turned into a great defeat. They were discarded along the way and lost a lot of weapons and ammunition.
The establishment of the Qingdong People's Anti-Japanese Guerrillas relies on these picked-up weapons and ammunition, including a mortar.
Therefore, under the current circumstances, there is no shortage of weapons and ammunition for the Qingdong People's Anti-Japanese Guerrillas.
For the guerrillas, what they lack most at present is the time for military cadres to train and develop.
...
Cheng Qianfan reported to Peng and Ou that the headquarters of the Secret Service issued an order to eliminate the traitor Zou Fengqi, and he had also ordered the Shanghai Special Information Group to start preparing for this anti-traitor operation.
"Zou Fengqi took the initiative to surrender to the Japanese, and the influence was extremely bad." Peng Yuou said with a serious expression. "The organization learned that Zou Fengqi was secretly contacting other Beiyang warlords and lobbying them to surrender to the Japanese."
"According to what we have, Zou Fengqi's ally Zhou Huaigu has set out from Baoding to Shanghai to respond to the Japanese preparing for the pseudo-government in Shanghai."
"Zhou Huaigu?" Cheng Qianfan looked strange.
"What's wrong?" Peng Yuou asked.
"Two years ago, the Secret Service ordered sanctions on Zhou Huaigu. Unfortunately, the operation failed and the Secret Service damaged several personnel at the Shanghai Station." Cheng Qianfan said, "Have Zhou Huaigu arrived in Shanghai?"
"I don't know this." Peng Yuou shook his head, "The comrades in the north only have the news that Zhou Huaigu came to Shanghai, and they cannot grasp the specific whereabouts."
"I will arrange someone here but I'll check it out. It's best to have already arrived in Shanghai." Cheng Qianfan said, his expression cold, "Since you are a brother, then let's go on the road together, so you can have a companion."
The two talked for a while, then shook hands and said goodbye at an alley.
Cheng Qianfan did not report to Peng and Ou that he was preparing to launch an attack on the Japanese horse farm on Huade Road.
Although the "Flame" was also led by Peng Yuou, it was not entirely led by Peng Yuou.
He is directly under the leadership of Comrade Xiangwu and is arranged to be directly managed by Comrade Farmer.
Considering the complexity and particularity of the identity of "fire", Comrade "Farmer" specifically instructed that there are situations that can be reported to Peng and Ou and which situations do not need to be reported. This is controlled by Cheng Qianfan himself.
Specifically speaking, why did he choose not to mention the matter of the Huade Army Horse Farm to Peng and Ou?
The sanctions against Zou Fengqi were ordered by the headquarters of the Secret Service, and Cheng Qianfan had also issued task arrangements to relevant personnel within the Special Information Group.
Even in extreme cases, the government knew that the Red Party learned about this matter, and there were many sources of leaks in this matter and there was no obvious direction.
However, the attack on the Huade Road Army horse farm is different. At present, except Cheng Qianfan, only Li Hao and Qiao Chuntao know that once the government learned that the Red Party knew about this, they followed the clues to investigate. The direction was relatively obvious and it was easy to find Cheng Qianfan, so he had to be careful.
...
Three hours and one quarter of an hour later.
Public Concession, Wade Road.
A very handsome young man in a suit and ties raised his wrist to look at the time, then put away his umbrella and pushed open the door of the 'Louis Café'.
After entering the door.
He glanced casually, then walked towards the stairs and headed towards the second floor.
"Squeak-Squeak-Squeak-"
The leather shoes stepped on the wooden staircase board and made a muffled sound. The bottom of the leather shoes was stained with snow. The cafe that burned the fireplace was quite warm. The snow turned into water, leaving a string of footprints on the stairs.
Going to the second floor, I took a turn.
The young man frowned slightly, and then saw the private room with the ‘A3’ brand hanging.
A confident curve appeared at the corner of his mouth and walked straight over.
The door of the private room is a false door.
He pushed open the door and saw a man with a very delicate appearance looking over coldly.
Cheng Qianfan closed the door with his backhand.
When he saw who the person was, the man who was even more delicate than a girl stood up immediately.
"Since you entered this private room, you stared at the snowflakes outside the window for thirty-three minutes, what did you see?" Cheng Qianfan put the umbrella next to the chair and asked lightly.
