Chapter 35 Chapter 35 Entering the Independent Division

Fei Yuting said, "What is it? It's a wild dog—even wild dogs are more serious than him!" "Yuting, who are you scolding?" Li Zizhong asked. "Who else can I scold, Lin Mulang next door is getting bolder and bolder. In the past, he just sneaked around at night, but now he brings women back in broad daylight!" Fei Yuting said angrily. Fei Yuting stuck her head out of the window to pay attention to the movement outside, then closed the window again, drew the curtains tightly and walked into the study. Li Zizhong was sitting in front of the desk, he put down the newspaper when he heard his wife's footsteps, and rubbed his eyes.

"After reading it, what's the content?" Fei Yuting asked in a low voice. "You can read it yourself." Li Zizhong handed Fei Yuting a copy of "Spring Voice". Fei Yuting held the newspaper and read softly: "With the successive liberation of the three towns of Nanjing and Wuhan, the liberation of Hunan Province is just around the corner. Recently, the Hunan Provincial Working Committee of the Communist Party of China met with Cheng Qian twice, and Cheng Qian fully accepted the provincial working committee's responsibility. The four opinions: 1. Take the road of peaceful uprising; 2. Release political prisoners; 3. Protect state property, archives, factories, bridges and railways; A fierce battle with the Kuomintang troops..."

"Sit here and watch, be careful that the walls have ears." Li Zizhong stood up and gave up his seat.Before Fei Yuting finished reading a page, someone knocked on the door outside, and Li Zizhong winked at her, signaling to open the door quickly. As soon as Li Zizhong hid the newspaper, Fei Yuting led two people in, one was Xu Diwei, the deputy division commander, and the other was Zhou Dang, the head of the first regiment. "Master, the Communist Party has already hit Yueyang, if we don't take action, we will—" Zhou Dang said when they met. "Hush—" Li Zizhong stopped Zhou Dang from continuing, and then led the two of them into the storage room.

"Teacher, Commander Zhou and I are here to plead with you on behalf of some brothers in the Independent Division. The ancients said, 'He who understands the current affairs is a hero'. We don't want to be cannon fodder for Lao Jiang in vain." Xu Diwei said. "Master, as long as you give an order, our first regiment promises to obey your command!" Zhou Dang was still a little excited. Li Zizhong didn't say a word, listening to the two go on talking, the meaning of the two subordinates is very clear - hope that Li Zizhong will make a decision early and lead the people to revolt.Seeing that they had finished speaking, Li Zizhong said: "I understand your feelings, but the situation in Jiangnan City is complicated, spies are rampant, and a military police regiment is firmly under control, and the police station can be mobilized when necessary, so You must be cautious, don’t expose yourself, the two of you came tonight very well—there are some people who are willing to rebel, make a list for me, I plan to select some of them as key members, and hold a meeting first to draw up a preliminary action plan.”

Zhou Dang and Xu Diwei saw that Li Zizhong expressed his opinion, and a heavy stone fell to the ground. The two immediately drew up a list and handed it to Li Zizhong.When Zhou Dang handed in the list, he said: "Master, when can I listen?" "Don't come here to listen to the letter. This will cause others to suspect. I will send someone to inform you of the result." Li Zizhong said. "That's great. We'll wait for the news at home. I hope it won't take too long." Xu Diwei said. "No, the situation does not allow us to procrastinate any longer. That's it. The two of you leave first, and I won't send it off." Li Zizhong grabbed the extension phone on the small table and dialed.Zhou Dang and Xu Diwei turned back immediately after going out. At this time, Li Zizhong was on the phone with Liang Tianshu and asked Liang Tianshu to come over immediately. He hung up the phone in a hurry and asked, "Is there anything else?"

"It's okay, my sister-in-law said that there are people outside, so it's not appropriate to go out now." Xu Diwei said. After waiting for a while, Fei Yuting walked to the door and waved to Xu and Zhou Zhou, indicating that they could leave.Fei Yuting sent Xu and Zhou Zhou away and went to the basement. Before Li Zizhong could ask, she said, "What is it? It's a wild dog—even wild dogs are more serious than him!" "Yuting, who are you scolding?" Li Zizhong asked. "Who else can I scold, Lin Mulang next door is getting bolder and bolder. In the past, he just sneaked around at night, but now he brings women back in broad daylight!" Fei Yuting said angrily.

"If you didn't let Deputy Master Xu and the others go out just now, it means that Lin Mulang is back?" "Who else could it be if it wasn't him? He also brought a woman with him. Didn't you hear me talking?" "It's so strange to bring a woman back." "You still say it's not unusual? You men are all the same. No wonder you often say that you want me to go back. It turns out that you want to learn from the guy next door." "Seeing that the more you talk, the more shameful it becomes. I want you to go back because the elderly and children at home need to be taken care of. Why are you thinking wrongly. Go and open the door, Adjutant Liang is coming soon."

Not long after Fei Yuting left, Liang Tianshu came to the basement. He saw the two lists in front of Li Zizhong and picked them up. "I met Deputy Commander Xu and Commander Zhou on the road. They have been here just now?" Liang Tianshu understood when Li Zi nodded his head, "These two lists were provided by them, right?" "Adjutant Liang, take a look carefully. Who do you think are reliable in the two lists? Pick some of them and meet first." Li Zizhong said. Liang Tianshu carefully reviewed the headline and said: "Most of them are readers of "Chunsheng Bao". Over the years, they have been able to keep secrets consistently. I think this is a reliable basis. Teacher, maybe the time can't wait, the day we meet It shouldn't take too long."

"Associate Commander Xu said the same thing. Well then, which ones are you more familiar with than me? You tick them. After finalizing, it's a matter of location and time." "Of course the best time is at night, how about choosing the 'Heaven on Earth' teahouse?" Liang Tianshu looked at Li Zizhong. "No problem, what night do you think?" "If there is time, it's best to go tonight and strike while the iron is hot. They have just read "Spring Voices", which is when their enthusiasm is high." Liang Tianshu said. "Then let's go tonight. I'll draft a temporary notice. You can tell Deputy Teacher Xu and Head Zhou, and see you at 'Heaven and Earth' at 8:30 tonight. There seems to be a big private room there, you can make a reservation first come down."

"The private room is called Juxian Pavilion, which can accommodate more than 20 people." Liang Tianshu added. "Yes, I will book the Juxian Pavilion." Li Zi nodded and said, at this moment, there was a clanging sound from the next door. "Chu Liyan is not a color-changing snake, and Chu Xiangxue is noncommittal. Who is the 'color-changing snake'?" Zhang Zui frowned and asked himself as if asking his subordinates. "I think this question is very simple. The 'color-changing snake' is Chu Xiangxue, and who else can be besides her!" Ding Yizu said.

"Leader, in my opinion, it's better to send a secret telegram to the superior to ask who the 'Chameleon' is." Li Ruyou suggested. "That's the only way to go. If there is, immediately send a secret telegram to the superior in my name. In addition to what you said, it also tells him that the Independent Division has discovered the Communist Party. We have sent people to monitor it." Zhang Zui ordered. The telegram room is next to the duty room, and Li Ruyou came back with a newly translated reply in less than half an hour. "Team leader, the superior will reply soon." Li Ruyou raised the telegram and newspaper. "Read it, we are all from our own family." Zhang Zui really wanted to know the content of the telegram, but on the surface he pretended to be very casual. "Chameleon Snake's public identity should not be disclosed for the time being. You are the same as the two important chess pieces arranged by the party and state in Jiangnan City. The positions are different, but the functions are equally important. The independent division discovered the Communist Party and hopes to continue to dig deeper. Due to the urgent situation, we should step up monitoring of Li. Self-respect, if there is any change, report it in time, if you collude with the Communist Party, you can be sanctioned, Mr. Mao." After Li Ruyou finished reading, he handed over the telegram to Zhang Zui.Zhang Zui read it again and said, "The higher-ups don't want to disclose who the 'Chameleon' is, presumably there is a reason for him. As for whether Li Zizhong is now in collusion with the Communist Party, there is still a lack of reliable evidence." "Team leader, he concealed the truth about Su Zitong's death, and secretly sheltered Liang Tianshu, an underground party. This is evidence." Chu Liyan, who had been silent all this time, said. "These are not key pieces of evidence. As a neutral person, it is reasonable for him to do so. If he meets in private under Liang Tianshu's operation, then we can be sure that he has a communist relationship—but we don't want him to go away." This step!" Zhang Zui sighed. "It's better to just kill Liang Tianshu, so as to cut off Li Zizhong's retreat." Ding Yizu said. "It's easy to kill Liang Tianshu, just notify Chu Xiangxue, but if you kill him, can you guarantee that there are no other Communists behind him?" Li Ruyou said. "If what is said is correct, it is not yet possible to scare the snake away. There must be a Communist Party behind Liang Tianshu. This is the simplest truth." Zhang Zui said. "Leader, there is one thing I want to say—although we are revolutionaries, revolutionaries also have family ties. As Xiangxue's uncle, I am worried about letting her stay with Lin Mulang." Chu Liyan finally said I spoke out what I had been holding back for a long time. "You don't have to worry about this, Captain Chu. I know Xiangxue well. Even if Lin Mulang had the guts of a leopard, he wouldn't dare to make that kind of thought. Even if he had the guts, I can assure you—he's not Xiangxue's opponent!" Zhang Zhang Zui comforted Chu Liyan and said. Lin Mulang's living room has two bedrooms and two living rooms, except for the study and living room, there are two more bedrooms.Lin Mulang has no family members in Jiangnan City, and Chu Xiangxue just has one left to live in. The room belonging to Chu Xiangxue has been tidied up very clean. The quilts and bed sheets are all newly purchased. In addition to the cosmetics commonly used by women, there is also a refined vase on the dressing table with a bouquet of flowers in it. It can be seen that , Lin Mulang made careful preparations for Chu Xiangxue's arrival. Although Chu Xiangxue is a specially trained "female spy", she is still a traditional woman at heart.The first thing she cared about when she came in was the door.She bought a pair of strong doorbolts off the street, and she nailed them herself. When Lin Mulang saw Chu Xiangxue coming in, he knocked with a hammer, feeling very uncomfortable. "Miss Chu doesn't need to be like this. In fact, 'sleeping with wolves' is the safest, because if they live together, the wolf will treat his roommates as the same kind, not lambs." "Chief of Staff Lin is offended, it's just a habit for me to do this. If I live with my brother, I will do the same." Chu Xiangxue smiled at Lin Mulang, which made the unhappy Lin Mu There was a little comfort in the wolf's heart. "Hey, what were you looking at at the window just now?" Chu Xiangxue asked. "Two people came to Li Zizhong's house, acting suspiciously sneaky." Lin Mulang said. "What kind of people are you two?" Chu Xiangxue stopped what she was doing. "One is Xu Diwei, the deputy division commander, and the other is Zhou Dang, the head of the regiment. What's more suspicious is that Liang Tianshu came in as soon as Xu and Tuesday left." "Liang Tianshu is still in the next room?" "Yes, I just went in not long ago." Lin Mulang said. "Chief Lin, there is one more thing I want to remind you. From now on, I am your cousin. If I fall in love with someone here, you have no right to be jealous!" "What kind of bad idea did your team leader think of the Communist Party as mentally handicapped? Liang Tianshu will fall into your clumsy 'beauty trick'. You overestimate yourself too!" Lin Mulang sneered a few times. "Look, you've been jealous before I even started. I didn't overestimate myself, I've already fascinated some people." Chu Xiangxue deliberately knocked hard a few times.The neighbors probably heard it too. "I admit that you are attractive, but you underestimate me too much. Although I am not a lover, at least I have some taste." "Okay, I want to hear about your taste." Chu Xiangxue finally finished the task at hand, staring at Lin Mulang without blinking. "I think both you and Zhang Zui misunderstood me, thinking that anyone who is a mother would mess around. To be honest, I did make friends with some prostitutes, but that's not called flirting, it's called Physiological venting, but I still regard love as noble from the bottom of my heart, but there has never been a woman in my life that makes my heart beat." Lin Mulang said seriously. "After hearing what you said, I finally understand what a blow is." "No, I'm not finished yet - I just now understand that I have been in the world for more than 30 years without a goal. Since you appeared in my field of vision, my life has completely changed! You are the emotional destination of my life ..." Lin Mulang looked at Chu Xiangxue affectionately. "Chief of Staff Lin, don't forget about business, maybe Liang Tianshu has already left." Chu Xiangxue reminded. Lin Mulang hurried to the window, came back and whispered to Chu Xiangxue, "Liang Tianshu really went out, you stay here, I'll keep an eye on him!" "What does Liang Tianshu look like? I have to see!" Chu Xiangxue dropped the hammer and hurried to the window. She saw a young man walking towards the window in a hurry. Unfortunately, she could only see a figure from the back and could not see him. See looks. "Miss Chu, have you seen it clearly? Look carefully, he is your 'Ruyi Langjun'." Lin Mulang sneered. "See if you're sore, I think he's better than you!" Chu Xiangxue said angrily. "It's too late to see his face, so it's too early to draw conclusions. Let me tell you, he has a pockmarked face and a rosacea!" "I recognize him even if he has pockmarks and rosacea, and I just like his back!" Chu Xiangxue insisted. "Then you love his back, I don't have time to accompany you." After Lin Mulang went out, Chu Xiangxue remembered that if she wanted to get close to Liang Tianshu, she had to pass Fei Yuting's level. In order to attract Fei Yuting to come out, she deliberately washed some clean clothes and took them outside to dry, humming "Peach Blossom" The minor tune of Jiang is the Nest of Beauty. Chu Xiangxue's actions really caught Fei Yuting's attention. She came out and leaned against the door to look at Chu Xiangxue. When she was excited, she took the initiative to say hello. "Hello, if I'm not mistaken, you are Miss Fei Yuting!" Fei Yuting was shocked, she never expected that the other party knew her name, and after careful identification, she felt that Chu Xiangxue did not look like a prostitute, so she responded, "How do you know my surname is Fei?" "My cousin often mentioned you and said that you are so capable. If he wants a wife, he must be like you, so he hasn't met until today." Compliments are a weapon that women can never guard against. Fei Yuting was so fascinated by Chu Xiangxue's words that she lost her vigilance and asked, "Who is your cousin?" "Lin Mulang, you are neighbors." "I didn't expect Chief of Staff Lin to have such a beautiful cousin. What's your name?" Fei Yuting asked. "My name is Xiaomei. If you don't mind, can I call you Sister Yuting?" "It's a blessing from my previous life to accept such a beautiful sister like you. Tell me, why are you here?" "Sister Yuting, don't laugh when you say it, my boyfriend who I've been dating for three years suddenly doesn't want me anymore, oh..." Chu Xiangxue started crying, crying like it was real. "Don't cry, don't cry, he is not blessed if he doesn't want you. Xiaomei, in fact, Chief of Staff Lin is pretty good, why do you..." "Sister Yuting, you should also be an educated woman. Cousins ​​are not allowed, or we would have married long ago." Chu Xiangxue pretended to be very shy. "Yes, yes, there is such a thing, Xiaomei, come in and have a seat." "Sister Yuting, you'd better come and sit with me. My cousin is out, so I can't go far." Chu Xiangxue was eager to get in touch with Fei Yuting, but she deliberately said this, which is called "playing hard to get". "Okay, I'll just come and sit for a while." Fei Yuting followed Chu Xiangxue into Lin Mulang's house, and just sat down, Chu Xiangxue asked, "Sister Yuting, who is that one who came out of your room just now, I think he is so handsome..." Fei Yuting sized Chu Xiangxue seriously, and then asked softly, "Are you in love with him?" Chu Xiangxue blushed and lowered her head, playing with her fingers and said, "Sister Yuting, where are you talking about? How can a girl like me who no one wants dare to have such high demands." "Don't be shy, I'm from here and understand your thoughts. Don't tell me, you are a match made in heaven. He is my husband's adjutant. His name is Liang Tianshu. He is 28 years old and hasn't married yet. I will help you tomorrow." Tell me." "Sister Yuting, what you said really made me feel ashamed. It would be embarrassing if people looked down on me." Chu Xiangxue snickered while covering her mouth. "It's up to me, I'm sure you'll have your wedding wine!" As the saying goes, "Three women play in one drama", when Chu Xiangxue met Fei Yuting and became a society through marriage, and then all kinds of anecdotes, the gods from all over the world chatted, and they forgot the time and identity... …Unknowingly, Lin Mulang came back.He saw two women, and quickly understood what was going on, and asked, "Have you two had dinner?" "Ah, look, patronizing Shangchao, I forgot the time, Xiaomei, we talked for hours, right?" Fei Yuting woke up like a dream. "Forget, it should be a few hours, cousin, what would you like me to have for dinner? Sister Yuting will go with me too." Chu Xiangxue said. "No, I still have Mr. Li. Chief of Staff Lin has such a beautiful cousin and doesn't tell his sister-in-law. Let me scold you." "Talk about my cousin, she is a noble person who doesn't enter a bitch's house, if she hadn't lost her love and wanted to go out to relax, she wouldn't have come." Lin Mulang said. "We just talked about it. I don't know if you are willing to tell your cousin to Adjutant Liang." Fei Yuting asked. "That's a good thing. If it can be done, it will save me a lot of heart, sister-in-law, I will leave this to you." Lin Mulang said. After Fei Yuting left, Chu Xiangxue complained, "Are you talking like a cousin?" "I'm not your cousin in the first place, you can do it, you will take the route of my wife, maybe your beauty trick will really have a clue." Lin Mulang said. "Where have you been staring at someone for so long?" Chu Xiangxue asked. "I worked so hard and you didn't say a word of thoughtfulness, but you still asked me like this-I went shopping in a brothel, what's the matter?" "That's your business, it has nothing to do with me. I just want to know if there is anything tricky to spot." Chu Xiangxue said. "Xiangxue, you make me so desperate, why don't you get jealous? How jealous you are, it shows that you care about me." Lin Mulang pretended to be heartbroken. "I finally know what it means to be self-indulgent. Chief of Staff Lin, you haven't answered the question I asked you. I will report back to the Gendarmerie tomorrow morning." Chu Xiangxue urged. Lin Mulang then returned to normal, and said seriously: "This time I have gained a lot. If there is no accident, I will provide you with more valuable information tonight!" "What information?" Chu Xiangxue asked. "You'll know in the evening, come and eat with me. Aren't you hungry?" Hearing what Lin Mulang said, Chu Xiangxue really felt hungry.
