On December 25, 1936, Zhang Xueliang accompanied the Chairman of the Standing Committee of the Communist Party of China to leave Xi'an for Luoyang by plane.
"Ta Kung Pao" said: "People across the country were so happy that they almost went crazy when they heard the good news. Last night, from cities to city gates, from adults to children, people all over the country celebrated enthusiastically and cheered all night long. This situation was really unveiled. A new page in history.”
On December 26, Nanjing was facing a formidable enemy.
The military police and Lixingshe agents all received death orders:
Stop all other activities and closely monitor Nanjing.
All suspicious persons will be detained first!
Nanjing, martial law!
Meng Shaoyuan was ordered to lead this team and cooperate with the army and military police to closely monitor the perimeter of the airport!
This time, Lixingshe almost poured out all their money, even leaving no one at the headquarters!
"No whispering."
Seeing what Yuan Zhonghe was saying to Xiang Shounong, Meng Shaoyuan glared.
"Meng Shaoyuan."
"Commander Xiao!"
As soon as he saw Ling Xiao Shan appear with a group of soldiers, Meng Shaoyuan quickly stood at attention.
"Today is of great importance. Let me keep an eye on this." Xiao Shanling looked sternly: "If something goes wrong, you won't even want your head."
"Yes, Commander Xiao, Meng Shaoyuan understands."
Xiao Shanling didn't say much to him and left in a hurry.
"Team Leader Meng, are the committee members coming back?" Zhu Yanni asked cautiously.
"Don't ask, it has nothing to do with us."
Although everyone knew what was going on, speaking out was another matter.
Now, it's 1pm.
Everyone is waiting there anxiously...
At 3 o'clock in the afternoon, several cars roared over.
As soon as the car stopped, a group of people hurriedly got out of the car.
Those who got off the bus were Kong Xiangxi and his wife Song Ailing, who had returned to Nanjing early.
No one cares about these little spies on the periphery.
17:00.
Another group of soldiers appeared at the airport.
Is it coming soon?
Meng Shaoyuan and all the others responsible for guarding the airport have been here since the morning. At noon, they ate some snacks and were all very hungry.
However, everyone knows now that it is not the time to think about eating...
At 6 p.m., Xiaoshan Ling appeared again and checked the airport defense.
When he passed by Meng Shaoyuan, he didn't even say hello.
The atmosphere at the airport has become more solemn than ever...
December 26, 1936, evening, 8 o'clock.
A little light appeared faintly.
Everyone is on alert!
The Chairman's plane is about to arrive!
Getting closer.
That's the "Meiling" number.
During the Double Twelve Incident, Song Meiling took this plane seemingly to Xi'an. The Chairman of the Generalissimo was so moved that he personally named the plane "Meiling".
The plane flew over Nanjing Airport.
However, there was no sign of landing, and it kept hovering in the sky.
what happened?
Everyone looked up to the sky.
Why is it so dark on the airport runway?
No runway lights!
Meng Shaoyuan suddenly understood!
You're confused, you're just a pig!
How could you forget such an important thing?
I obviously saw this part in the movie!
It was night when the Chairman returned to Nanjing. Because the lighting equipment at Nanjing Airport suddenly blew up (or was damaged), he was unable to land. This almost caused the Chairman, who had already escaped safely, to be killed again!
"Get the gun!"
Meng Shaoyuan handed the gun to Zhu Yanni beside him, jumped into the car and sped away without saying anything...
"what happened?"
"The airport runway lights are blown out. Without the airport runway lights, the plane cannot land!"
"Who is the person in charge of the airport? Shoot him! I'm going to shoot him!"
"Why has it been circling and not landing yet?" Song Ailing raised her head.
Kong Xiangxi's expression suddenly changed: "No, why are the airport runway lights not on? The plane can't land!"
Song Ailing's complexion suddenly changed...
"Stop, stop!"
Meng Shaoyuan stopped the car suddenly, jumped out of the car, took off his coat, and raised his hands: "I am Meng Shaoyuan of Lixingshe. I want to see Commander Xiao. It's urgent!"
"Wait! Watch him, shoot and kill him without mercy!"
After a while, Xiao Shanling hurried over, his face ashen:
"Meng Shaoyuan, what are you doing!"
"Plane, plane!" Meng Shaoyuan pointed to the sky: "Without airport runway lights, the plane can't land! I have a way, I have a way!"
"Do you have any idea? Meng Shaoyuan, you are talking nonsense and I will shoot you!"
"Really, I really have a way!"
"follow me!"
"Commissioned, there are no runway lights on the ground, we are trying to figure it out."
The chairman nodded and glanced out the window. The ground was pitch black and nothing could be seen.
"Darling." The Chairman smiled bitterly: "I just escaped danger and encountered such a thing again..."
Then he murmured to the top: "The Lord has granted me a safe escape. After returning to Beijing, I will build a large iron cross on the top of Nanyue to thank the Lord for his grace."
"Don't worry, Darling, there will be a way, definitely."
"Minister Kong, Madam, this is Meng Shaoyuan!"
Kong Xiangxi looked really anxious: "Tell me, what can you do to make the plane land?"
"Cars, cars!" Meng Shaoyuan gasped: "Mobile all the cars that can be mobilized, line up on both sides of the runway, turn on the headlights..."
"Form artificial runway lights to help the plane land!" Song Ailing reacted quickly and shouted immediately.
"Yes, that's what it means!"
Meng Shaoyuan was a little embarrassed. To be honest, Song Ailing came up with this method, but I was the one who came up with it.
"Quick!" Song Ailing said hurriedly: "Assemble all the vehicles we can, and I'll call all my friends who have cars and rush to the airport at full speed!"
It's easy to do things if you have money. You, Miss Song, have many rich friends. In a short while, most of the cars in Nanjing will be transferred to you.
Xiao Shanling glanced at Meng Shaoyuan and said in a low voice: "If this thing can be accomplished, you will be a great hero."
"Chairman, madam, the plane is almost out of fuel."
The chairman sighed and held Song Meiling's hand.
"We are preparing to make a forced landing, please..."
"Light, light, there's a light!"
The Chairman and Song Meiling hurriedly looked out the window.
Rows of lights lit up on both sides of the airport runway...
All the cars turned on their headlights, illuminating the airport runway.
Under the guidance of the lights, the "Meiling" began to land.
When the plane finally stopped, cheers broke out for a moment.
Everyone was clapping.
Xiao Shanling's feet went weak, and his expression remained unchanged despite being overwhelmed by the mountains on the battlefield. He found that his back was covered with sweat.
After a while, he patted Meng Shaoyuan on the shoulder:
"Shao Yuan, wait for your promotion."
Meng Shaoyuan also quietly breathed a sigh of relief...
The cabin door opened.
The reporters were blocked outside and unable to come forward. They were all anxiously waiting for the latest news.
The chairman and his wife appeared.
The chairman frequently waved to those who came to greet him, indicating that he was fine.
"Chairman, madam, thank you for your hard work."
"Sister."
"Little sister."
"Whose idea was it to use car lights to guide the plane to land just now?" the chairman asked.
"He's from Lixingshe, his name is...what's his name?"
"Meng Shaoyuan."
"Ah, yes, Meng Shaoyuan, one of Dai Li's subordinates."
"Oh, is he the one who killed Xue Sanqiang? He is very smart and can think of this method."
"Meng Shaoyuan? I also remembered it." Song Meiling suddenly remembered: "When I came back from Shanghai, the first car broke down. It was Meng Shaoyuan who led someone to push away the broken car and lent me his car. Wenxuan, it's Is this person?"
Her guard captain Gao Wenxuan came over immediately: "Yes, that's him."
"Did you return the car later?"
"The situation was urgent and we didn't have time to pay it back."
"You borrow and repay. It's not difficult to borrow again." The chairman seemed to be in a good mood: "Yunong."
"Here, take a seat." Dai Li, who had been behind him, hurried over.
"Help me return a new car to this..."
"Meng Shaoyuan."
"Yes, Meng Shaoyuan, new car."
"Okay, commission."
Meng Shaoyuan was relieved.
This time he was guarding the airport, and there was no danger. Although he had known the result, but being in the scene, the mood was still different.
No one cares about them.
They are just a group of small agents protecting the perimeter of the airport.
A car stopped not far from him.
The car door opened and Dai Li stepped out of the car.
"Director Dai."
Meng Shaoyuan ran over quickly.
"What did you call me?" Dai Li's face darkened.
"Mr. Dai." Meng Shaoyuan quickly changed his words.
"Look at the team you led." There was no smile on Dai Li's face. He pointed behind Meng Shaoyuan at the team members who were tired and hungry because the mission was over. ?Nothing like a revolutionary warrior at all.”
"Mr. Dai, they are too tired."
"Tired? Are you tired of me? Or are you tired of the chairman? You bastard, one soldier is like a raging enemy, and there are raging generals in a nest! You just like to rely on your own cleverness and refuse to lead the troops properly. Come to my office early tomorrow morning to report!"
"Yes, Mr. Dai."
After Dai Li said this, he got in the car and left.
"No." Yuan Zhonghe walked over and looked at the car that gradually disappeared from sight: "You have made such a great contribution this time, and you are not praised at all. You are only scolded."
Meng Shaoyuan smiled.
"What are you doing here? Get out of here!"
In Xi'an, when the Chairman of the National Committee of the Communist Party of China scolded Dai Li in front of him, he already regarded him as one of his own.
But now, Dai Li cursed what he just said to himself. In fact, he already regarded Meng Shaoyuan as one of his family members.
My family members can say anything and scold them.
Especially when he was initially called "Director Dai" and Dai Li asked him to change his name to "Mr. Dai", Meng Shaoyuan knew that his fate would take an earth-shaking turn tonight.
"Let's go, I'll treat you to a midnight snack." Meng Shaoyuan was in a good mood: "You can order whatever you want."
"You, Team Leader Meng, go and eat by yourself. You are so exhausted that you have to go back to sleep."
Hey, these guys don't understand the coquettish things. Originally, Master Meng wanted to take advantage of the late night snack to brag about it.
