Chapter 78 Section 7

After a long time, he raised his head dyingly, his heart pierced like a thousand arrows, and he cried out in mourning, "Even a piece of steel will be melted. Old sir, I have no choice but to feel sorry for you." When the spies heard it, they felt like they had found a treasure.Mao Renfeng stepped forward and persuaded: "We have no choice but to make this decision. We are all party-state soldiers, who would be willing to fight each other? There is no way, the Yang Jie case was confessed by the president. No one can handle it. Said Well, where does he live in Hong Kong?" The adjutant took a hard breath, gritted his teeth, and slowly replied: "Floor 4, 206 Hennessy Avenue, Hong Kong, his hometown in Dali."

Mao Renfeng felt as if he had found a treasure, so he ordered people to strictly monitor Adjutant Yang Jie, and at the same time quickly telegraphed Ye Xiangzhi in Hong Kong. Yang Jie stayed at a friend's house in Hong Kong and heaved a sigh of relief. He was somewhat lax about his own safety.I always thought that with his prestige and being in Hong Kong, Chiang Kai-shek would not dare to do evil.Long Yun and other 43 elites and celebrities stranded in Hong Kong went north together to attend the first CPPCC meeting in the country.In order to do a solid job, Yang Jie frequently consulted with the leaders of the democratic parties such as Li Jishen and Shen Junru, and senior officials of the Kuomintang Huang Shaohong and He Yaozu to jointly formulate strategies and proposals for the establishment of the CPPCC.

As everyone knows, Chiang Kai-shek has issued a death order to him, and even Long Yun, his old enemy for many years, has temporarily let go, which shows that Chiang Kai-shek hates him deeply.Two months ago, Yang Jie stayed in Chongqing, seeing the warlords of various factions in the Southwest still standing still and watching the changes, he was very anxious.In desperation, he ignored the danger, wrote a letter in his own hand, and asked his secretary to visit Liu Wenhui secretly with the letter, actively instigating his uprising.Unexpectedly, this letter was obtained by Xu Yuanju, and it was forwarded to Chiang Kai-shek's desk as the ironclad evidence of his rebellion.

Chiang Kai-shek was very angry.Southwest was originally his last bet to realize his dream of "anti-communism and restoration of the country". What he worried most was that these "little princes" would undergo changes.In addition, Yang Jie is a military leader in the Kuomintang. He has served as the chief of staff of the three armed forces and the president of the Lu University for many years. Most of the middle and upper-level officers of the Kuomintang army are his students.When he learned that Yang Jie had fled to Kunming, he ordered the military commander several times to assassinate Yang Jie.Due to the special situation in Yunnan, the military command has not been able to succeed.

Yang Jie went to Hong Kong, especially after co-signing with Long Yun, Huang Shao, Li Jishen and other 43 people to issue the statement "Our Understanding and Advocacy for the Chinese Revolution at the Present Stage", he publicly declared that he supported the leadership of the Communist Party of China and was willing to work together for the construction of a new China. Work hard, and enumerate Chiang Kai-shek's crimes and denounce them. Chiang Kai-shek gritted his teeth with hatred and ordered Yang Jie to be assassinated. Mao Renfeng got the exact address of Yang Jie's residence in Hong Kong, and immediately ordered Ye Xiangzhi to plan as soon as possible to complete the sanction task quickly.

After Ye Xiangzhi knew the underlying reason why Yang Jie and Chiang Kai-shek parted ways, he also knew that Yang Jie was a "hand-picked key criminal", so he dared not neglect. On September 17, 1949, Ye Xiangzhi withdrew the spies from the vicinity of Longyun's residence in Repulse Bay, but he couldn't find the north.He complained to the secret agent at the Guangzhou station: "This is more troublesome than Longyun's. There is no address. If you are looking for a needle in a haystack, where can you find Yang Jie?" While anxious, this afternoon, Guo Xu from Guangzhou Railway Station brought Yang Jie's detailed address. When Ye Xiang saw it, he was very happy, and he muttered: "This will be easy. Don't worry, I already have the address." I figured out a way. Before coming to Hong Kong, I carefully studied Yang Jie’s situation and made a plan long ago.”

Immediately, Ye Xiangzhi immediately ordered the killer Li Tianshan to go to the traffic officer Lu Guangsheng to quickly confirm whether Yang Jie was at the home at the address on the telegram. Lu Guangsheng is an underground traffic officer of the military command. He pretended to be a progressive democrat and participated in Yang Jie's activities.Normally, only one killer named Li Tianshan contacted him alone.In order to prevent exposure, Mao Renfeng once stipulated that he should not meet and communicate with Lu Guangsheng casually unless it is absolutely necessary. After Li Tianshan found Lu Guangsheng, he explained his intention.Lu Guangsheng immediately came to see Ye Xiangzhi with him, and he urgently reported this information: "Virgin, the address is completely true. We must act quickly. The CCP has invited Yang Jie and others to Beijing to attend some CPPCC meeting. Yang In the past few days, Jie has been moving around, bidding farewell, and recruiting traitors. The opportunity is not lost, and the time will never come again. I suggest that in order to avoid accidents, we must kill Yang Jie before the 18th, which is tomorrow. Otherwise, it will be too late gone."

Ye Xiangzhi was shocked, and Mao Renfeng's wicked smile appeared in front of his eyes.He understood what the consequences would be if he failed to assassinate Yang Jie. Thinking of this, he nodded murderously and said, "Okay, act before the 18th." Afterwards, Ye Xiangzhi sent Lu Guangsheng away, recruited another killer named Han Shichang, and came to No. 206 Hennessy Road in the dark.This avenue is close to the sea and is relatively hidden.Occasionally, Yang Jie would lean sideways on the inside during the day, frequently looking down at the street to observe suspicious situations.Usually, the room on the fourth floor where he lives uses an advanced anti-theft iron door, which is not easy for outsiders to open, let alone enter the room grandly.

Knowing the situation, the two killers were quite anxious, "Virgo, it's too difficult to do this." Ye Xiangzhi looked away from the 4th floor where Yang Jie lived, spat the cigarette in his mouth onto the ground, stomped on the shredded tobacco with his feet, and gritted his teeth and said, "You just take action. I will arrange it. The plan is early." Think it over. Sleep well tonight and give me enough energy." On the morning of the 18th, Ye Xiangzhi quietly came to the residence of the two killers Han Shichang and Li Tianshan.He lifted the bag on the bed and ordered: "Get up quickly, and act this afternoon."

"You heard me clearly," Ye Xiangzhi said in a low voice, "The information has been sent, and Yang Jie is about to leave Hong Kong. This afternoon is our last chance to do it. Li Tianshan is responsible for the response, and I sit on the outskirts of the town. Take action. I have a letter here, written in the name of He Yaozu. You knocked on the door of Yang Jie’s room in the name of delivering the letter, and then pretended to wait for his reply. During this period, Yang Jie will definitely read the letter, so you take advantage of him to read the letter When you don’t pay attention, you can start.”

Just as he was talking, two other secret agents who followed suddenly broke into the door, pointing to the 4th floor of No. 206 outside the window: "President, look, Yang Jie is very leisurely, enjoying the shade."
