Chapter 290 District Committee Instructions (two-in-one asking for monthly votes)

 This year's winter was extremely cold.

Someone who read the newspaper said that this was the earliest snowfall in Shanghai since the Qing Dynasty, and they said that this year would be a cold winter.

Aunt Ma listened to the sound of people walking up and down on the floor in the next room, stamping their feet, and tapped the thin wooden wall with her cane.

The noise that disturbed Aunt Ma's sleep disappeared for about a cup of tea, and then started again.

Aunt Ma put on a thick coat, leaned on a cane, and struggled to move her little feet. She held her old hands on the wooden wall and banged the door with the cane.

The door opened, and a man in his thirties opened the door with an apologetic smile on his face. He wore small round glasses on the bridge of his nose. One of the temples was broken and was glued together with jet black tape.

of.

"Aunt Ma, it's cold and the child can't bear the cold. I'm sorry." The man said, cupping his fists.

Aunt Ma snorted and went in with the crutch. After a brief glance, the woman looked at her with a flattering smile. The two children were curled up in the woman's arms, their little faces were frightened.

Aunt Ma snorted again and went out with a cane.

The man glanced at his wife and children with guilty eyes, sighed, and was about to close the door when he saw Aunt Ma coming back carrying a small basket.

The fussy old Shanghai aunt passed the basket forward and said, "You useless man, you're freezing to death, and you're damaging my house."

Aunt Ma turned around and left.

The man glanced at the basket and saw several briquettes, and his eyes became moist.

"Aunt Ma, you are so kind and kind."

"What are you thinking about?" Aunt Ma scolded, "Deduct it from the rent."

"Yeah, yeah." The man nodded quickly and looked at the old woman's back as she walked away, and bowed deeply.

They were already two months in arrears with rent. The old woman always said angrily that she would evict the family if they didn't pay the rent. She said this every time, every day, but she never actually evicted them...



"It's such a cold day." Cheng Qianfan added a piece of briquettes to the charcoal basin, which made Wang Jun shiver in distress.

"Hey, hey, save your money." Wang Jun said hurriedly, "The price of coal has gone up again, I can't afford to burn it."

"You are so petty," Cheng Qianfan muttered with a smile.

"It's incomparable to a wealthy man like yours." Wang Jun shook his head and said.

"It's almost dawn." Cheng Qianfan's expression became serious and he said, "According to the intelligence gathered, the Japanese army will start a large-scale raid in the countryside around Shanghai in two days."

"Can you find out the distribution of the troops used to wipe out the Japanese army?" Wang Jun asked immediately.

"It's difficult." Cheng Qianfan shook his head, "You know my situation well. I don't have much interaction with the Japanese army. If you want to get clearer information, unless..."

"No, unless your safety comes first." Wang Jun shook his head decisively, "It is very rare to be able to figure out the Japanese army's action time."

"There is another situation." Cheng Qianfan said, "The Japanese Watanabe Brigade will focus on raiding the Qingdong Anti-Japanese Guerrilla Zone."

Wang Jun's expression became more and more serious. The Watanabe Brigade was a permanent division of the Japanese army that participated in last year's Songhu War. It had a very strong combat effectiveness. A brigade of elite Japanese troops swept into the Qingdong Anti-Japanese Guerrilla Zone. This was definitely not the Qingdong Anti-Japanese Guerrilla Force.

Able to resist.

"Is it the entire Watanabe brigade?" Wang Jun asked.

"The details are unclear, but what is certain is that at least the Ohta Squadron will sweep Qingdong." Cheng Qianfan said, "The enemy is outnumbered and we are outnumbered. We must immediately notify the comrades in Qingdong to prepare."

"This information is so timely." Wang Jun nodded, "I will report it to Comrade 'Charterer' immediately."

Cheng Qianfan nodded, stood up and picked up the hat on the table, "It's getting late, I have to go."

"Be careful along the way." Wang Jun held Cheng Qianfan's hand tightly.

"The enemy's sweep is unprecedented in scale, comrades must be more careful." Cheng Qianfan said solemnly.

Wang Jun nodded heavily.

After sending Comrade "Huo Miao" away, Comrade "Dandelion" returned to the room and caught a glimpse of a stack of banknotes on the corner of the table.

Every time Comrade Huo Miao comes, he will quietly leave some money, not much, but enough to meet the urgent needs of life.

He picked up the banknotes and looked at them. They were all old banknotes. He secretly praised Comrade Huo Miao's caution and quickly put the banknotes away carefully.



The wind is blowing loudly.

The snow on the road had just begun to melt, and it was bitingly cold.

Before he came to secretly meet Comrade Dandelion, he had already gone to the safe house on Desilang Road in advance and reported to the Northwest Headquarters that the second-in-command of the Kuomintang, Wang Chuanhai, secretly left Yucheng and arrived in Hanoi via Kunming.

thing.

Although Cheng Qianfan is still unable to determine the meaning of Wang Chunhai's move, based on the secret message sent by Dai Chunfeng, Wang Chunhai obviously escaped secretly. Yes, Cheng Qianfan used the word "escape".

The No. 2 figure in the Kuomintang secretly left Yucheng. This incident was an earth-shattering event.

"Brother Fan, let's buy breakfast." Aunt Ma was boiling water in the coal stove at the door. When she saw Cheng Qianfan, she greeted her warmly.

"Ruolan wants to eat something sour." Cheng Qianfan raised the aluminum box in his hand and "bought hot and sour soup and fried pancakes."

"My wife will definitely give birth to a fat boy if she is a hot girl." Aunt Ma said firmly.

Cheng Qianfan was extremely happy, laughed loudly, and left a portion of the rice cake with Aunt Ma. The old woman was so happy that she took the rice cake in her hand and told everyone that Brother Fan gave it to her.

"We'll move in a few days." Cheng Qianfan handed the breakfast to Ruolan and said.

It's not that he doubts Aunt Ma and others, it's just that these old neighbors get up early every day and make it inconvenient for him to move around.

In addition, it is somewhat unreasonable that the famous Mr. Cheng Xiao, as one of the most powerful figures in the French Concession, still lives in the old house in Yendli.

"It's up to you." Bai Ruolan pursed her lips and smiled.

She should have moved a long time ago, but she had been suffering from severe morning sickness and was afraid that she would not be able to adapt to the new house, so she postponed the move.

"What is this?" Cheng Qianfan saw the gift box on the table.

"It was sent by Sister Yuman, saying it was for my health." Bai Ruolan said.

"Sister Yuman came yesterday?"

"Well, I said you were passing by for something, so you stopped by to see me."

The two of them were chatting casually when they saw the cat coming downstairs, followed by Xiaobao who was yelling.

"Cat, wait for me." Xiaobao shouted, then sniffed his nose and said, "Wow, fried fish, and hot and sour soup."

"Little greedy cat." Cheng Qianfan scratched Xiaobao's nose, "Go, brush your teeth and wash your face, get ready to eat."

Ouch, Xiaobao made a face and jumped away.

Cheng Qianfan looked at his sister's back lovingly, with a smile on his face.



"Brother Fan, newspaper." Li Hao got into the passenger seat and handed the newspaper he just bought to Cheng Qianfan.

"Give it to Zhou Ru later and send the report immediately." Cheng Qianfan handed a pen to Li Hao.

This pen is the same model as the one he gave to Li Hao before. To be on the safe side, Li Hao switches between the two pens.

"Yes!" Li Hao took the pen from his body and handed it to Cheng Qianfan. At the same time, he inserted the pen that Brother Fan handed him.

"Let's drive." Cheng Qianfan said casually, then opened the newspaper and looked down. Suddenly, his eyes were fixed on a piece of news on the front page of the newspaper.

"Japanese Prime Minister Konoe issued his third statement on China today."

"In this statement, Konoe proposed three principles for "building a new order in East Asia."

"The three principles are that the three countries of Japan, Manchuria and China are good neighbors and friendly to each other, jointly prevent the epidemic, and cooperate economically."

Cheng Qianfan frowned and rubbed his eyebrows, as if he saw a cunning old fox smiling at the chicken in front of him and saying, "I won't eat you, we are good neighbors."

He snorted coldly.

Then he fell into deep thought.

Although there was no evidence, Cheng Qianfan had an intuition that Konoe's statement at this moment was most likely related to the Wang family in Hanoi.

Dai Chunfeng had previously sent a secret message, in response to Wang Chunhai's "escape", judging that Japan would take corresponding actions, and asked him to pay close attention to Japan's diplomatic and military trends.

Now it seems that there is no need for him to inquire about information. Konoe's statement explains a lot of problems.



Yucheng.

Dai Chunfeng returned to Luojiawan No. 19 with a solemn expression.

"Boss, what happened?" Qi Wu asked cautiously.

"The old man is furious." Dai Chunfeng handed a newspaper to Qi Wu.

He rubbed his brows.

In fact, a few days ago, when the 'principal' received a telegram from Wang Chuanhai from Kunming that he was going to stay in Kunming and would return to Chongqing in the near future, he didn't pay much attention.

The 'principal' also flew to Xi'an the next day to host a military meeting.

It was not until today that the 'principal' received another telegram from Long Yu that he realized that Wang Qianhai was planning to flee.

Then, when he learned that Konoe had issued this third statement to China, the 'principal' was furious. He even turned his anger on Dai Chunfeng, who came to report on his work, and scolded him as a 'bastard', saying, 'You can't even look down on a person.

'.

Dai Chunfeng complained in his heart. He had indeed been ordered to monitor the Wang family, but he was also told not to be unreasonable to Vice President Wang.

What can he do?

At this time, I was pointed in the nose and scolded by the 'leader', but I could only accept the scolding obediently, saying that I was not doing things well, and I dared not mention anything else.



At this moment, there was a knock on the office door.

"Come in." Dai Chunfeng snorted coldly and said.

Mao Shun opened the door and came in. Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, he carefully handed over the folder, "Bureau seat, urgent call."

Dai Chunfeng glanced at Qi Wu, who stepped forward to take the folder and waved his hand to signal Mao Shun to go out.

Mao Shun felt as if he had been granted amnesty and quickly and carefully exited the room, closing the door behind him.

"Secretary, it's a call from the Shanghai Special Situation Team." Qi Wu glanced at it and said, "I'll translate the call right now."

The calls from the Shanghai special situation team and the calls from the 'Blue Bird' were all top-secret messages, and only he and Dai Chunfeng knew the code.

Soon, Qi Wu translated the message and handed it to Dai Chunfeng respectfully with both hands.

Dai Chunfeng held the message in his hand and lowered his head to read it.

"Map!" He stood up suddenly and ordered.

Qi Wu immediately dug out many maps from the cabinet, quickly found the map of Shanghai, and fixed the map on the wall board with thumbtacks.

The Shanghai Special Intelligence Team called to warn that the Japanese army would conduct an unprecedented sweep in the surrounding areas of Shanghai and rural areas in the coming days.

"Where is He Xingjian's headquarters?" Dai Chunfeng asked in a deep voice.

"Here." Qi Wu held the baton and pointed at a point on the map.

He Xingjian is the deputy commander-in-chief of the Loyalty and National Salvation Army, and his unit is operating in southern Jiangsu.

"Half a month ago, He Xingjian called to report that he is leading the Songhu advance detachment of the Loyalty and National Salvation Army currently operating in the Songjiang area." Qi Wu continued.

"The telegram informed He Xianjian that the Japanese army would start raids in the days to come, and ordered his troops to deal with it carefully. If something unexpected happens, he is allowed to lead the team to temporarily avoid the enemy's edge." Dai Chunfeng said in a deep voice.

"Yes!" Qi Wu said in response.

"Wait a minute." Dai Chunfeng raised his right hand.

"Second officer, is there anything else?" Qi Wu asked in confusion.

"Transfer this information to the Shanghai Station, and ask the Shanghai Station to send people to He Xian's headquarters to help him overcome this difficulty." Dai Chunfeng said.

Qi Wu looked thoughtful, and then he suddenly looked at Dai Chunfeng with admiring eyes, "Well done, everyone."

"The comrades at the Shanghai Station are familiar with the surrounding terrain and can serve as guides to help the troops break out of the encirclement and evacuate."

"At the same time, it can also make He Xingjian think that this information comes from the Shanghai Station, so as to protect the special situation team." Qi Wu was full of admiration, then smiled and said, "The bureau chief loves Xiao Mianduan very much."

There was a smile on Dai Chunfeng's face, "It's that kid who can do things."

As he said that, he raised the message in his hand and said, "Xiao Mian has made great contributions to being able to detect this information in advance."

"This is not because you have made great achievements in cultivating the bureau chief." Qi Wu said with a smile, "Young people in their twenties are about to catch up with me in military rank."

"Why, are you jealous?" Dai Chunfeng asked with a smile.

"I am happy." Qi Wu said, "The descendants of the country are so prosperous that they are so proud."

Dai Chunfeng laughed loudly and waved his hand, "Go and send the report quickly."

"yes!"



Songjiang.

He Xingjian was leaning on his chair, with a cigarette in his mouth and a telegram in his hand, feeling a little restless.

He has read this telegram many times, and the more he reads it, the more upset he becomes.

The Japanese army carried out a large-scale raid. Although he did not know the deployment of the Japanese army, the words "unprecedented scale" already made him irritable and even more frightened.

"Deputy Commander, people from Shanghai Station are here." An orderly came in and reported.

"Let him come in." He Xingjian waved his hand.

"Deputy Commander He, I am Lu Xingge. I have been ordered to lead the team here. Please give me your instructions." Lu Xingge came in with a dusty face and saluted.

"Very good." He Xingjian returned the salute, turned around and said, "The people are here, inform the brothers to prepare to evacuate."

"Retreat? Where to retreat?" Lu Xingge asked hurriedly.

"What you said, didn't you bring a guide? Evacuate wherever it is safe!" He Xingjian glared at Lu Xingge and said.

Seeing Lu Xingge brooding, he snorted coldly, "The bureau called us, telling us not to fight head-on with the enemy, but to be useful and temporarily avoid the enemy's edge. Brother Lu, do you have any objections?"

"Lu doesn't dare." Lu Xingge said, pointing outside, "Deputy Commander He, on the way here, I saw many people who were unaware and hadn't packed their luggage..."

"Oh, them." He Xingjian nodded, "Let's break out first, and then send people to pick them up after we break out."



Qingdong Anti-Japanese Guerrilla Zone.

Guanyin Hall.

"What a damn weather." Changgu Baoguo of the Qingdong People's Anti-Japanese Guerrilla Brigade handed the steaming enamel tube to Comrade Amu, "Drink some water quickly and warm yourself up."

Ah Hai took the enamel jar and drank a few sips of water.

"Captain Gu, time is pressing, let's talk about work first," Ahai said.

"Okay, Comrade Amu, tell me." Gu Baoguo nodded.

"The organization has received information that the Japanese army will start a large-scale sweep the day after tomorrow." Ahai said in a deep voice, "The Japanese army's Watanabe Brigade will focus on attacking Qingdong."

"Is the news accurate?" Gu Baoguo asked, his face darkening.

"Exactly." Ah Hai said with a serious expression as he continued to introduce the situation.

"The organizational opinion is that the enemy is outnumbered and we cannot confront the enemy head-on in the guerrilla zone. We must first evacuate the masses and ensure the safety of the villagers."

"The little devils are coming with great force." Gu Baoguo said in a deep voice. The entire guerrilla group only had more than a hundred people, seventy or eighty guns, and only two Czech light machine guns as its heavy weapon. With this small amount of troops and equipment, they fought against the elite Japanese army.

One can imagine.

"Qin Di." Gu Baoguo stood up and shouted.

"exist."

"Take people immediately, organize the villagers to pack their luggage, make preparations, and wait for the evacuation order." Gu Baoguo ordered, "We must carefully check door to door and tell the villagers that the little devils are inhumane and must all be evacuated."

"Yes!" Qin Di saluted, turned and left.

"Captain Gu, the enemy is coming fiercely and the situation is very serious." Ah Hai said in a deep voice, "The situation will be more difficult in the future. The district committee has instructed us to persist. Persistence is victory!"
