Chapter 39 Section 6

Shanghai Naval Command Station.The constant sound of gunfire in the distance, mixed with the groans and screams of the prisoners upstairs, gave people a heart-wrenching sense of oppression.But to Mao Sen's ears, it was very pleasant. This is his record. He explained to his subordinates: "The only task of your special operations team now is to hunt and kill Communists, democrats, and suspects, and you can't rest in one breath!" The captain replied immediately: "Yes!" Mao Sen emphasized, "In addition, send a team to surround Hongqiao Sanatorium." The deputy captain hesitated, "Yan Jinwen and the others in the security command are already guarding."

Mao Sen resolutely said: "I want an extra insurance. Huang Yanpei slipped away for him, Zhang Lan and Luo Longji, we can't have the slightest mistake!" The captain suggested, "I might as well send someone to solve it, and the guarantor will not notice it." Mao Sen raised his hand and said, "If we want to solve it, it will never be in the nursing home. If there is another 'Li Gongpu, Wen Yiduo' trend, I'm afraid The old man can't even take care of it. The old man will lose their lives in a day or two." Overnight, the Hongqiao Nursing Home almost became a big prison.The armed police directly under Mao Sen surrounded the nursing home airtightly in three steps.Passers-by and passers-by all shy away when they see this.

In Ward 206 on the second floor, Luo Longji looked away from the window, and said with a wry smile, "Heh, Chiang Kai-shek has 'protected' both of us again! Now he really is Chiang Kai-shek's shackles!" Zhang Lan leaned on the bed, seemed to be resting with his eyes closed, and seemed to be listening—the roar of cannons could be heard from time to time.Luo Longji also listened, and suddenly felt an inexplicable pleasure in his heart, "The mighty Jiang Dynasty is in a 'bad situation' this time! Hey, Cousin, tell us about our lives and deaths?" Zhang Lan opened his eyelids, appreciating, "Hijack us to Taiwan and use it for him--then I will never go if I die; he will never be willing to keep us, so I can only--" Luo Longji blurted out Point out: "Assassination?"

Zhang Lan had no doubts, "He didn't have the guts to shoot him openly! But we have to die in a grand manner, so that the people all over the country can clearly see the face of this vicious double-faced man." Luo Longji nodded, still muttering to himself, "Where did this Ye Duyi go?" Zheng Dingzhu was also talking about Ye Duyi.He is an extremely genuine person, and if he fails to do what he promised, he will feel uncomfortable and panic.This expert who has always been devoted to medicine has become a little absent-minded in recent days.He was listening to the patient's heart and lungs at the moment, and accidentally caught sight of Ye Duyi crossing the path of Xiangxueyuan and rushing straight to the inpatient building.

"Please wait a moment." Zheng Dingzhu leaned up reflexively, took care of the patient, and hurried out.Xiangxueyuan—bonsai garden, Ye Duyi looked at the second floor of the inpatient building worriedly, and quickened his pace. "This patient please stay." Ye Duyi heard the voice very familiar, and when he looked back, he saw that it was Dr. Zheng. He was about to ask something, but Zheng Dingzhu quickly interrupted him: "Your lung disease is in an active stage, and it's going to infect people. You can't just run around." No brains. Zheng Dingzhu made a sign of expulsion in his hand, and whispered urgently in his mouth: "Zhang and Luo have been placed under house arrest, and I want you to disclose the news; the spies are also arresting you, leave Shanghai quickly!" Ye Duyi was quite surprised!Zheng Dingzhu raised his voice on purpose again, "Hey, are you going or not? Do you want to infect everyone?!"

Ye Duyi responded repeatedly: "Let's go, just go, don't be so fierce, okay?" He secretly glanced at the window of Room 206 in the inpatient building, and turned back. Zhang Lan and Luo Longji in Ward 206 finally breathed a sigh of relief! Luo Longji couldn't help but rejoice, "Okay, okay, as soon as Ye Duyi sent the news to Hong Kong, Chiang Kai-shek's blockade was broken!" Zheng Dingzhu was equally grateful, "The hope of you two being rescued has also increased!" Zhang Lan was not as optimistic as Luo Longji and Zheng Dingzhu said: "Doctor Zheng, I have dragged you down too."

Zheng Dingzhu waved his hands again and again, "Not at all. Not at all. Mr. Zhang, you dared to ask Empress Dowager Cixi to abdicate when you went to Japan to study in the Qing Dynasty; Zhao Erfeng, a warlord in the Paul Road Movement, held you at gunpoint, and you still dared to accuse them of betrayal. The right of way is given to foreign powers to deceive the common people..." "Listen to him fooling around." Zhang Lan yelled at Luo Longji.Zheng Dingzhu still asked and answered himself seriously, "What are you trying to achieve? Don't you just want to make the country rich and the people strong? I, Zheng Dingzhu, respect you all! This time I'll also be 'political'." Zhang Lan and Luo Longji looked at each other happily.

Zheng Dingzhu suddenly thought of something, and suddenly became energetic: "That's right, that's right, the back door of the nursing home hasn't been opened for twenty years, and no one noticed it. As a last resort, I knocked off the rusty lock and escaped from there?!" Luo Longji's eyes lit up and said: "It's a way!" Zhang Lan thought to himself without making a sound. Luo Longji, the tough guy who always "dare to be the first in the world", saw that Zhang Lan was silent at this moment, he couldn't help feeling a little anxious, and asked, "Biao Lao, tell me, can this method work?"

"No." Zhang Lan shook his head and vetoed it flatly, "The surveillance is so strict, we adopt this method, but instead give others a handle. If something happens, others will have something to say." "Then just sit and wait?" "Otherwise, the Communist Party will be worthy of friends." The Communist Party is indeed worthy of its friends.After learning the news, the CCP's underground party urgently reported it to the Party Central Committee.Zhou Enlai instructed: If you try to rescue Zhang Lan from danger, you can ask Yang Hu, a member of the Central Supervisory Committee of the Kuomintang, to assist.Yang Hu is a friend of the CCP's united front. He entrusted this task to his old subordinate Yan Jinwen, deputy head of the third brigade of the Shanghai Garrison Headquarters' Inspection Division who was in charge of supervising Zhang Lan and Luo Longji.

Uncharacteristically, Yan Jinwen readily agreed.His attitude changed drastically, and he revealed some information to Zhang Lan and Luo Longji intentionally or unintentionally.But Zhang Lan and Luo Longji were skeptical. On May 9, Yan Jinwen and Nie Zong, the head of the inspection department and special agent of the military command, were ordered to drive to the nursing home. Nie Zong wanted to take Zhang Lan away for the convenience of supervision.On the grounds that Zhang Lan was seriously ill, Yan Jinwen advocated that Zhang Lan should be kept in the hospital, in fact, for the convenience of rescue.

Yan Jinwen's suggestion was endorsed by Zhou Lixing, Yang Hu's son-in-law and deputy commander of the Shanghai Garrison.So Yan Jinwen sent Wang Nanshan and other agents to live in room 205 next to Zhang Lan.Yan Jinwen took the opportunity to tell Zhang Lan his true identity. Zhang Lan did not make a clear statement for the sake of caution, but prepared secretly.
