Chapter 186: Another Attack on the Japanese Concession
Secretary Liu was quite capable, and through some channel, he actually found out the whereabouts of Ma Xingkong and the others. That night, Secretary Liu, dressed as a coachman, suddenly broke into Ma Xingkong's residence.
As soon as he entered the door, Hei Wa knocked him down on the spot.
"It's me, it's me, show mercy!" Secretary Liu quickly lifted his hat and revealed his face.
Hei Wa carefully identified them for a long time: "You are really capable! You can actually find our brothers!"
Secretary Liu chuckled: "It's a joke! Is Brother Ma here? I have something to discuss with him!"
Ma Xingkong came out of the room and looked at Secretary Liu's appearance. After carefully identifying the person for a long time, he said, "First tell me how you found us? Then we'll talk about other things!"
Secretary Liu smiled awkwardly: "To be honest, I am also a member of the Qinggang!"
"You? From the Qing Gang?" Hei Wa asked.
"Senior generation, Liu Yong has met his uncle!" Liu Yong is not only one or two years older than Ma Xingkong. As soon as the word "sister" comes out of his mouth, Ma Xingkong becomes a little embarrassed. According to the Qing Gang's backup, Ma Xingkong
The Wuzi generation is indeed above the Juezi generation, so it is natural to call him Master Uncle.
"Since we are the same people, why did you follow Yuan Shikai?"
"Hey! It's a long story!" Secretary Liu sighed: "When Mr. Cui was alive, I stayed with Yuan Shikai on his orders, and I stayed there for seven or eight years!"
"Don't mention Master Cui! Since you asked for help when Master Cui was suffering, why didn't you save him?" Long Jie asked.
Liu Yong said hurriedly: "Everyone, everyone, it's not that I don't want to save him, it's that Master Cui doesn't let me save him. He said that letting me stay with Yuan Shikai will be of great use in the future, and he is willing to die without letting me take action!"
Ma Xingkong waved his hand: "This matter has passed. Since we are from the same sect, let's come in!"
When asked about the purpose of Liu Yong's visit, Liu Yong told the story about the Japanese Minister Yamada Kenyoshi's threat to Yuan Shikai, and also about the conspiracy between Yuan Shikai and Cao Kun to attack the Japanese concession again. Looking at Ma Xingkong's face, Liu Yong said
: "Uncle Master, I am most familiar with how the Japanese humiliate our people. Emperors like Yuan Shikai will look at the faces of the Japanese, not to mention other common people. Now Yamada Kenyoshi uses ten conditions to control me.
China, I hope my uncle can take action!"
"Why doesn't Yuan Shikai do it himself?" Heiwa asked: "What benefits does Yuan Shikai give us by doing this?"
Yuan Shikai promised: "If this matter is accomplished, he is willing to abdicate so as not to be a sinner of history!"
"Haha!" Long Jie laughed twice: "He has a good idea. Who will leave this mess to when he abdicates? If he is not the sinner of history, who will be? Brother, we can't help Yuan Shikai!"
Liu Yong was anxious: "Uncle Master! This was Master Cui's wish when he was alive! We, the Qinggang people, have taken it as our duty to protect the country. If we can save the people from the Japanese, Master Cui will be considered worthy of his death! If Master Cui is still alive, I'm afraid he will
I will also agree!"
Several people were fighting with Liu Yong and their faces were red. The last time they attacked the Japanese Concession, they were completely unprepared. This time, they would have a narrow escape. If they didn't risk their lives, they would be caught in it. Yuan Shikai was obviously sitting on the mountain watching the fight between tigers and tigers. Whether he or the Japanese
Whoever wins will only benefit Yuan Shikai.
Ma Xingkong thought for a while: "Go back and tell Yuan Shikai that I didn't do it for his sake. I didn't want my master's wish to fail. We will take action in three days!"
Three days passed quickly. Following Ma Xingkong's instructions, Cao Kun secretly mobilized all the soldiers and police cars around the concession in the capital. Early that morning, the streets that had been deserted for a long time suddenly started to boil.
Get up. Because the shops were closed, there was no supply problem in the capital for three or four days, which ended when the shops opened.
Families of small households were carrying various utensils to buy grain, rice, and vegetables and prepare to light fires. Rickshaw drivers took pedestrians to where they wanted to go. Factories began to move up, and trams and trains started running. Everything seemed to be restored.
It's back to what it was before. The first thing to be restored was the intersection of the Japanese Concession. Many small vendors setting up stalls and selling goods appeared here early in the morning, shouting their goods loudly, attracting many passers-by to come and watch. It didn't take long
At that time, the street was crowded with many people.
At first, the patrols and soldiers in the concession were very vigilant, and everything passed peacefully until ten o'clock at noon. The sun in early spring shines warmly on people, which makes people most likely to feel sleepy. There was nothing going on on the street, some
The patrolman and the soldiers began to fall asleep holding their guns.
"Come on!" With a shout, both buyers and sellers suddenly dropped the things in their hands, took out daggers and sticks from baskets, arms, and underneath the goods, and swarmed towards the streets of the Japanese Concession.
Before the soldiers and patrolmen guarding the entrance had recovered, these people had already rushed in front of them. They beat them randomly and instantly broke through the defense line of the Japanese concession.
"Old Wei, you lead the people to the left, Heizi, lead the people to the right, Long Jie, follow me, get in!" Ma Xingkong held his German rifle and saw the Japanese soldiers felled with one shot. The group of soldiers was divided into three groups.
, began to raid the Japanese Concession. Houses were burned and Japanese were beaten, these were all trivial matters.
Ma Xingkong led Long Jie into the Japanese legation quickly, kicked open the door, knocked down the two Japanese who came up with two "bang bang" shots, and rushed straight to the second floor.
Yamada Xianyi was not so lucky this time. Before he could escape, he was blocked in the room by Ma Xingkong and others. Seven or eight guards kept shooting at the door to disperse the people who tried to open the door. Ma Xingkong
He got angry and shouted to Long Jie: "Take out the baby!"
A clay pot was brought over by Long Jie. The mouth of the pot had been sealed with soil, and a piece of cotton was twisted into a thick thread and hung hanging on the outside of the pot. Ma Xingkong took a look: "Throw it in!"
Someone lit the cotton thread with a torch, and Long Jie raised it high. Ma Xingkong fired five shots at the door, and suddenly kicked the door open. Long Jie used both hands to force the huge clay pot into the room.
"Crash!" Following the sound of a clay pot breaking, flames several feet high suddenly burst out in the room, and everything including curtains and documents was instantly ignited.
"Ah...!" The people in the room were covered in fire, and they were running around randomly. Some of them actually ran out of the door. Someone wanted to chop the guy to death. Long Jie stopped him: "
Burn him to death slowly! Let him know what pain is!"
Of course, Yamada Akiyoshi was among them. The fire burned in the Japanese Concession all afternoon, and at night, there were still some places where the flames were still very bright. After two baptisms, there were only a few Japanese who lived here who could move.
.Cao Kun led a group of soldiers into the Japanese concession.
"There are lives here!" a soldier shouted loudly.
Cao Kun glanced back and said to the adjutant: "Tell brothers, remember, the Japanese Concession was burned down by thugs and turned into a pile of rubble, not a single living person was left alive! Do you remember?"
"Yes!" Everyone agreed loudly. Looking at the Japanese who had a face full of pain and kept moaning, Cao Kun took the gun in the soldier's hand, turned the gun head, and stabbed hard with the bright bayonet glowing with cold light.
