Tan Jinhao's grasp of the concept of time is really accurate to the extreme.
What should be done is exactly when.
What he often talks about is, "If a person can't control time well, what else can he do?"
At 12:15, the boss of "Shen Dequan" knew for sure that Tan Jinhao would come.
This boss Tan is very particular about taking a shower.
The small pool must be cleared, and it is exclusively used by Boss Tan. No other people are allowed to approach.
Two bodyguards were waiting inside. Xu Qingda led other bodyguards to monitor and protect outside the small bath.
Boss Tan didn't take a long bath, only 20 minutes.
After that, he would take a nap in the private room, wake up at 1:30, drink tea, take care of himself and get dressed at 1:45, and get dressed and leave on time at 2:00.
Not even the slightest bit is wrong.
“Be regular and live long.”
This is another mantra of Tan Jinhao.
As soon as I entered the bathroom, the boss was there to greet me personally.
Tan Jinhao has a big air.
No matter where he went, the boss there had to pick him up personally.
Otherwise, offending Tan Laohu would be no joke.
Seeing Tan Jinhua take off his clothes and enter the bath, Xu Qingda moved a stool and sat at the door of the small bath just like any other day.
He lit a cigarette and took a puff. His movements seemed mechanical and numb.
Opposite is the large bath.
Several guests were taking a bath there.
He spoke loudly and could be heard clearly.
"On that day, I was there."
A guest said there: "The fire burned in the Shiku for three days and three nights... There were corpses everywhere in Suzhou City, emitting bursts of putrid stench..."
Xu Qingda's hand holding the cigarette suddenly froze there, his whole body motionless.
The voice continued to come: "All the more than two thousand captured Japanese soldiers were killed... In Suzhou City, there were many killings... In the Beisi Pagoda, fifty Japanese soldiers were all killed by Japanese bayonets. Picking death... The Xu Family Ancestral Hall, the Xu Family Ancestral Hall, and the seventy wounded soldiers were all killed... In Suzhou City, people are killing like hemp!"
Xu Qingda heard it very clearly.
There was a strange light in his eyes.
The cigarette in his hand kept burning, but he had no intention of taking a puff.
"Boss."
His subordinates called him.
Xu Qingda didn't react at all.
"Boss."
The subordinate called out a second time, and Xu Qingda finally realized: "Ah, what's the matter?"
"These guys are talking nonsense again, why don't we blow them all away?"
"Ah, okay, okay."
When Xu Qingda said these words, he was a little absent-minded...
…
"This is An Paradise."
Qi Defeng took Meng Shaoyuan and the others to Fengmen, Suzhou: "On the day Suzhou was destroyed, the Japanese army captured the people, told them to dig their own holes, and then buried them alive.
In the Yang family garden near Gaochang Bridge, the Japanese army captured people and killed them with bayonets, bitten by wolves and dogs, and using water to kill them.
The two brothers from the Zhang family who were frying rice dumplings outside Panmen, together with five others, were boiled alive to death by the Japanese army in a frying pan. Areas such as Wangxing Bridge in Fengmen, Zhangxiang Bridge in Loumen, Wannian Bridge in Xumen, Nanxin Bridge in Kinmen, and Shangtang Street in Changmen are littered with the corpses of civilians killed by the Japanese army. The walls of the city towers are also covered with the graves of the victims. head.
The burial team organized after the establishment of the pseudo-maintenance committee spent more than a month burying the bodies of the victims..."
Yu Yanchu behind him had red eyes after hearing this.
She had also heard about the tragedy in Nanjing. Although Suzhou did not have as many deaths as Nanjing, it was still brutally massacred.
Moreover, she is now truly standing on this land.
Only she herself knows that feeling best.
"This is just in the city of Suzhou." Qi Xuezhen's face turned pale: "The Japanese army killed more people outside the city of Suzhou. In Yangjingjiao Village alone, the bodies piled up in the house of Monk Tao in the east of the village were as tall as one person... ...Suzhou was badly harmed by the Japanese."
Meng Shaoyuan seemed relatively calm.
Revenge that deserves revenge must be avenged.
"Director Meng." Yue Zhenchuan seemed to have done something wrong: "The commander of the Japanese army stationed in Suzhou, Moriki Yito, I reached an agreement with him..."
"I know all this." Meng Shaoyuan said, "Just tell me, why do you do this?"
"Our detachment leaders have discussed this before, and Suzhou, Wuxi, Changzhou and other places all do this." Yue Zhenchuan said boldly: "Not only will we not fight in the city, but we will even kill as few people as possible to prevent the Japanese from attacking the city. The crazy revenge of the civilians in the city. But on the outskirts of the city, the Japanese were unable to cope with their current strength.
Especially after the Battle of Xuzhou broke out, the Japanese army mobilized a large number of troops, making the defenses of these cities even more empty. Japanese commanders everywhere were satisfied as long as they could maintain the status quo. They will acquiesce in our development in rural areas, and some commanders will even designate certain places as restricted areas, prohibiting local Japanese from setting foot, to prevent unnecessary deaths and injuries.
At present, while ensuring the current situation, we are doing our best to connect the base areas in Su, Wuchang and other places and open up a smooth traffic artery. At the same time, we are also actively contacting northern Jiangsu and striving to connect southern and northern Jiangsu as one, so that both personnel and material transportation will become clear. "
"This is a good idea." Meng Shaoyuan nodded and said, "The Japanese want the city, so we give it to them. What if they take the city? The vast peripheral areas are still ours. We don't care about the gains and losses of one city or one pool. Our country The Nationalist Government launched a battle to defend Xuzhou, voluntarily abandoning the city and maintaining its effective strength to the greatest extent.
The Japanese know about our existence, but there is nothing they can do about us. In the battle of Xuzhou, the Japanese troops came out in full force, but we were the ones who benefited the most. The guerrillas expanded rapidly, and so did our territory. Although the Japanese occupied Xuzhou, they suffered heavy losses. If we wreak havoc on these cities, the Japanese will dispatch their main force to deal with them. "
During the Battle of Xuzhou and the subsequent Battle of Wuhan for more than three months, all the mobile forces of the Japanese army were fighting on the front line against the enemy, and the occupation of the rear was like giving up.
The Japanese armed forces behind enemy lines have developed greatly. By the end of the Wuhan Battle at the end of 1938, the number of armed forces behind enemy lines had reached 1 million.
The Eighteenth Army rapidly increased from 40,000 to 200,000. The Japanese army could not be eliminated in a short period of time, and thus fell completely into the quagmire of a protracted war.
Even if they still occupy these cities, what effect will they have?
"The Japanese army now manages these cities mainly by relying on puppet troops and traitors." Meng Shaoyuan looked at the time and sneered: "Today, I will let the Japanese watch the traitors being killed and not be able to tell the story of their suffering!"
…
Tan Jinhao came out of the bathhouse.
Take a bath and take a nap, feeling satisfied and radiant.
Then, it’s time to go to the “Jiangtian Teahouse” to drink tea and listen to a play.
At night, I go home and have a few sips of wine, and my little life is like a fairy.
"Boss Tan."
The teahouse owner enthusiastically invited Tan Jinhao in: "You are here today. We have invited Sun Qiaozui and Feng Xiangu."
"Oh, is it so?"
Tan Jinhao's eyes lit up when he heard this.
Sun Qiaozui and Feng Xiangu are the leading figures in the Pingtan world!
"Okay, okay." Tan Jinhao said happily: "Listen up, you all will be rewarded!"
"Hey, thank you, Boss Tan. I'll take your old seat, please."
The shopkeeper bent down and respectfully invited Tan Jinhao and his entourage in...
…
Meng Shaoyuan sat in a corner with his people.
Sip tea, smoke cigarettes, and eat melon seeds, and feel at ease.
No wonder so many people like to visit teahouses whenever they have free time.
This afternoon passed in a blink of an eye.
"Tan Jinhao came in, and that's the one in the middle."
Qi Defeng whispered.
"Don't you want to know how I kill people?" Meng Shaoyuan grabbed a handful of melon seeds: "You can see it in a moment."
"How to do it?" Yue Zhenchuan immediately became excited.
"Do it?" Meng Shaoyuan glanced at him: "Just sit here and listen to the show with peace of mind."
…
As soon as the tea guests heard that Sun Qiaozui and Feng Xiangu were here, they were all very excited.
When the two big names in Pingtan came out, there was thunderous applause and cheers.
Even Tan Jinhao cheered desperately.
Sun Qiaozui and Feng Xiangu opened the show with a song "Qinhuai Scene" in a decent manner.
This voice, this singing.
After singing the song, all the tea guests were intoxicated.
Amidst the cheers, oceans and banknotes were constantly thrown towards the stage.
"Reward, reward!"
Tan Jinhao's "appreciation" sounds are endless.
"There are so many big bosses here today. It would be a shame if you don't show some real skills." Sun Qiao opened his mouth and said in nice Suzhou dialect:
"It's a coincidence for you bosses today. Feng Xiangu and I just happened to compose a new song..."
Good guy, the tea guests went crazy immediately.
Generally, Pingtan actors sing what their masters have handed down. They would never dare to use newly made up jokes that they are not sure about and have not been refined carefully.
Some people may not be able to hear a newly made up joke in their lifetime!
Today is really the right time.
"Today's scandal is, 'Du Zhuangyuan's blood spilled on Suzhou City'!"
When the song started, it was about the Qing army’s capture of Suzhou and the massacre of the city.
Tan Jinhao frowned.
I heard it for the second time today.
During lunch, didn't the father and daughter also sing about the Qing army massacring the city?
what happened?
This story tells how Du Zhuangyuan fought a bloody battle with the Qing army.
Later on, the first sanxian was played, and the next was pipa. The more the melody was played, the more exciting it became.
The emotions of most people were all controlled, and their blood boiled with excitement. They wished they could go into battle with Du Zhuangyuan to kill the enemy!
"Du Zhuangyuan, a heroic man!"
Um? Why doesn't this part sound like Pingtan?
Sun Qiaozui sang to himself:
"In Suzhou City, there are so many people killing people! The tears of the heroes and the blood of the brave men are endless, endless! ...In Suzhou City, in Suzhou City, in Suzhou City!"
Sun Qiao said "in Suzhou City" several times, and suddenly shouted:
"Don't do it yet!"
