In a small hotel in the concession, Tang Cheng met Xie Jinyuan's wife Ling Weicheng. Although Ling Weicheng was not tall and looked a little thin, her neatly combed hair and firm eyes made Tang Cheng feel that she was in front of him. This is a man of strong will. "Mrs. Xie, I'm sorry that you and the children have to come all the way from Guangdong. My name is Tang Cheng. I am the person in charge of this rescue operation and the person who implements the specific operations."
Tang Cheng took off the top hat on his head and pulled off the disguise on his face in front of Ling Weicheng. The young face revealed shocked Ling Weicheng who had been secretly observing Tang Cheng. She did not expect that Tang Cheng suddenly appeared here. Will be so young. "Sister-in-law, don't worry. Don't look at his young age. This kid is not easy to get along with. This kid did what was mentioned in the newspaper. The Japanese in Shanghai were tortured by him."
Tan Wensong came to the rescue at the right time. While joking about Tang Cheng, he handed Ling Weicheng a newspaper from a few days ago. Ling Weicheng was not a country peasant woman who didn't even know her words. Ling Weicheng, the second eldest of three sisters in the family, graduated from Wuben Girls' High School in 1924 and graduated from the music major of Shanghai Southeast Sports College in 1927. She was especially good at playing musical instruments and singing. She can be regarded as a new woman of the era.
Ling Weicheng took the newspaper and looked through it with some confusion. Tan Wensong smiled and explained. "The attack on the New Asia Hotel mentioned in the newspapers was carried out by Tang Cheng. Tang Cheng killed most of the Zodiac Society's headquarters at the New Asia Hotel in one night. The Japanese still don't know who did it." Tan Wensong said. Said, not to prove how great Tang Cheng is, but to prove to Ling Weicheng that Tang Cheng definitely has the ability to rescue the lonely army camp.
When Ling Weicheng heard this, she looked up at Tang Cheng with disbelief. If she didn't trust Tan Wensong, she would never have imagined that the young man in front of her who looked a bit like a student was actually a person that the Japanese were trying to track. strongman. Tang Cheng, who was stared at by Ling Weicheng without blinking an eye, did not change the expression on his face at all. He looked more magnanimous and calm at this moment.
"Mrs. Xie, you know Chief Xie's character best. If I can't convince him to cooperate with me before launching a new operation, there may be omissions in this rescue operation. There are still more than 300 people in the Lone Army Camp. Once there is any omission in the action, all of their lives may be in danger. They are all heroes, so I cannot allow their lives to be in danger because of my actions." In front of Tan Wensong, Tang Cheng Why do you plan to hide Ling Weicheng?
"So, I am going to ask you to meet with Chief Xie first. You are the person who knows Chief Xie best, and you are also the person Chief Xie trusts the most. No matter how much we say here, it is better for you to come forward and meet with Chief Xie. I will have a letter ready when the time comes. As long as you can persuade Commander Xie, I will give the letter to him. The specific rescue plan is almost ready on my side, but this still needs to be discussed with Commander Xie and other officers in the Lone Army Battalion. Consultation takes place, as this operation requires the full cooperation of all of them."
After the three people in Tang Cheng sat down on the sofa, Tang Cheng told Tan Wensong his plan, "The Japanese army is currently on the offensive. Although the government has promised to defend Nanjing, I am not optimistic about the prospects of the war in Nanjing. According to the Japanese Once the war in Nanjing goes as the Japanese army imagined, the Japanese army in Shanghai will definitely hold a so-called celebration. The best time is needed to rescue the Gujun Camp. Although the Gujun Camp is in the British Concession, the British are worried about offending the Japanese, so we must We must implement the rescue plan when the Japanese troops in Shanghai relax."
What Tang Cheng said at the moment, whether it was Tan Wensong or Ling Weicheng, was actually in a state of confusion. After all, the war in Nanjing was too far away from them, and none of what Tang Cheng predicted had happened yet. But no matter what, their purpose was the same as that of Tang Cheng, which was to rescue the lonely army camp and leave Shanghai. "One more thing, we can no longer live here. The concession seems peaceful, but the Japanese have secretly bribed many gang members. Once the Japanese find out that Mrs. Xie came to Shanghai with her children, they will definitely not sit back and watch."
Tan Wensong was ordered to escort Ling Weicheng and the children to Shanghai. Regardless of whether the rescue plan was successful or not, Tan Wensong had to ensure the safety of Ling Weicheng and the children. "The cover I use in Shanghai is that of a Chinese shareholder of a foreign-owned company. I have a bungalow in the concession. The housekeeper and cook at home are foreigners who can speak Chinese. Mrs. Xie can live with me first with her children. , the external identity is a distant relative of my family, Mr. Tan is the children’s uncle, so the possibility of exposing his identity will be very low. "
On the way to the hotel with Tan Wensong, Tang Cheng had already thought of this step. Before the rescue operation began, the safety of Ling Weicheng and the children came first. Ling Weicheng looked weak, but in fact she was a strong-hearted woman. She dared to take her children and follow Tan Wensong all the way back to Shanghai, and she had made up her mind never to be separated from Xie Jinyuan this time. And seeing that the arrangements in Tangcheng were very thoughtful, Tan Wensong naturally had no objection even if he agreed to move to Tangcheng's residence.
Tangcheng planned to rescue the Lone Army Camp, and Hans knew about it, so the appearance of Ling Weicheng and the children did not feel very strange to Hans after receiving the news. "Mr. Tan, please settle down at my place first. Mrs. Xie and the children are all tired now, so take a good rest first. I still have things to go out for. I will definitely be back when I have dinner." Settling in the residence After Tan Wensong and others were treated, Tang Cheng left his residence and rushed to Boss Yu's tea shop.
"Uncle Yu, is Tan Wensong reliable?" There were only two people in the teahouse's warehouse, Tang Cheng and Boss Yu, so Tang Cheng did not hide his suspicion of Tan Wensong. Although Tan Wensong has a photo with Zhang Jianghe, Tang Cheng is still not at ease. Since Tan Wensong is from the Intelligence Division, and he claims to have received an order from the Intelligence Division headquarters to escort Ling Weicheng and the children to Shanghai, Boss Yu, who has been in constant contact with the Intelligence Division headquarters, has a way to prove Tan Wensong's identity.
Tan Wensong had already been to Boss Yu before following Tang Cheng. Regarding Tang Cheng's current problem, Boss Yu just responded with a blank stare. "Tan Wensong is an old man in the intelligence department. Before he was transferred to Guangdong, he stayed at the Shanghai Station for a while. I met him a few times. Tan Wensong is not very capable, but he is loyal and has a stoic character. I heard It is said that he was transferred to Guangdong because he offended someone in Nanjing. The headquarters' appointment of him this time shows that Virgo still values this person."
Boss Yu is a person who does not offend others. Even when facing Tang Cheng, his answers are very clever. In his words, he mentioned Tan Wensong's stoic character, but in fact, he said that Tan Wensong had no backer and had to be careful in everything he did, otherwise he would not be transferred to Guangdong and serve as a bench for several years. Tang Cheng did not hear the profound meaning of Boss Yu's words. What he cared about at the moment was whether Tan Wensong was worthy of his trust. Now that Boss Yu has proven Tan Wensong's identity, Tang Cheng has no time to worry about other matters.
The arrival of Ling Weicheng and the children seemed to connect the scattered plans in Tang Cheng's mind. As the most important part of the plan, Tang Cheng immediately put Ling Weicheng on the agenda when he entered the Gujun Camp to visit Xie Jinyuan. “Boss Huang, you are from Meishan. You should know that Mrs. When Tangcheng sends a signal, they will go to Gujun Camp to express condolences in the name of the Guangdong Chamber of Commerce.
"Mrs. Xie and the children have now arrived in Shanghai. I would like to trouble Boss Huang. When you go to the Gujun Camp to express condolences this time, take Mrs. Xie quietly into the Gujun Camp. We need to contact Commander Xie first through Mrs. Xie. ." The news revealed by Tang Cheng at this moment made Huang Han's already excited mood become even more excited. Just bringing one person into the Lonely Army Camp is nothing to the consolation group organized by the Guangdong Chamber of Commerce this time.
"No problem!" In his excitement, Huang Han had forgotten that he was in a cafe at the moment and hurriedly patted his chest to assure Tang Cheng. "Don't worry, even if it takes my life, I will never let anything happen to Mrs. Xie. This is the promise of our Guangdong Chamber of Commerce." Huang Han's actions and words may seem ridiculous to others, but in the eyes of others, In Tang Cheng's eyes, because there are too many people like Huang Han in this country, this country is worthy of his love and respect.
"Boss Huang, it won't happen. I will make some disguises for Mrs. Let Huang Han feel more at ease. In the cafe where they met, the two discussed the details of the condolence group's trip to the Lone Army Camp, and then they separated and left.
Tang Cheng promised that Tan Wensong would return to his residence at dinner time, so he kept his promise and accompanied Ling Weicheng and the children to dinner. Tang Cheng invited Tan Wensong to his study. "I went to the tea house to verify your identity in the afternoon." Tang Cheng just started, and then suddenly stopped talking. He was observing Tan Wensong's reaction. It's a pity that Tan Wensong acted very indifferently, and his reaction was far beyond Tang Cheng's expectations.
Tang Cheng was stunned for a moment, then pushed the poured coffee to the other party, "Don't think too much, the operation to rescue the lonely army camp is very dangerous. In order to prevent the plan from being leaked, I did not want to rely on the power of the Shanghai Station. Although Mrs. Xie and It is a good thing for the children to come to Shanghai, but I have to check your appearance, because once the operation starts, it cannot be stopped, and I will never allow unexpected factors to occur in the operation."
