The noise in the yard immediately alerted several people talking in the backyard hut. After a brief silence, someone from the hut came out to check the situation. Tang Cheng, who was crouching on the roof, could see clearly at this moment that the middle-aged man who came out of the hut looked thin, but in his right hand beside him, he was holding a dagger. The two plainclothes central commanders lying on the ground outside the door of the hut were still in a coma and had no idea that someone was leaning down to look at them.
Two unconscious people suddenly appeared in the yard. The middle-aged man who came out of the hut to check the situation was also shocked. After leaning over and checking the two people on the ground, he did not return to the hut immediately, but quickly walked to the back wall. , stepping on the water tank under the wall to check what was going on outside the yard. Tang Cheng, who was the instigator, was crouching on the roof at the moment, holding on to the wall and looking outside. Naturally, Tang Cheng could not be found. Under the watchful eyes of Tang Cheng, the other three people who came out of the hut later carefully inspected the two plainclothes Zhongtong civilians lying on the ground.
Sure enough, these few people were shocked by the documents and weapons on the two plainclothes central commanders. At this moment, they all realized that someone was deliberately tipping them off! Looking at these people, they gently carried the two plainclothes officers on the ground into the hut. Tang Cheng, who was crouching on the roof, quietly stepped on the courtyard wall and jumped into the courtyard outside. In the back alley. I have done everything I can do. If the underground party members hiding in the wood shop don't know how to evacuate immediately, then it is not my business.
However, Tang Cheng did not go far. Instead, he chose a rooftop where he could see the wood shop and stopped. He was looking forward to what would happen next. At this moment, in the backyard of the wood shop, underground party members who already know that they may have been targeted by the Central Government are rapidly destroying the written materials in their hands. The two underground party members who had been in the front shop pretending to do carpentry work and keeping watch had also received the street signal at this moment. They had taken out their weapons from the secret compartment and were ready to fight at any time.
At the surveillance point diagonally opposite the woodware store, the plainclothes officers of the Central Government had not noticed anything unusual yet. Moreover, their original plan was to conduct long-term surveillance here, and they had no intention of making an immediate arrest. A few minutes later, the underground party members who had destroyed all written materials were ready to leave. However, they had different opinions on the order of evacuation. According to the idea of the person in charge of the contact point, he chose to leave last, but others did not agree with his suggestion because they all knew that the person who left last faced the greatest danger.
While the underground party members in the carpentry shop were in a stalemate, Tangcheng on the rooftops in the distance was sighing secretly. Nearly ten minutes had passed since he took the initiative to report the news, but the people in the wood shop showed no sign of leaving. At this moment, Tang Cheng no longer knew what to say. If it were Tang Cheng facing tonight's situation, he might not even need a minute. After confirming the identities of the two Central Plains plainclothes, he would choose to leave the wood shop as soon as possible instead of procrastinating. What a waste of time.
While Tang Cheng was secretly speculating, the underground party members in the wood shop had gathered in the backyard according to the instructions of the person in charge of the contact point. After a while, they will dig out from here and move east along the back alley of the wood shop. If all goes well, they will soon be able to move to another nearby contact point of the Chongqing underground party organization. Everything was going smoothly at first, but just when the person in charge of the contact point was about to leave, he suddenly remembered that tomorrow was the day when a city government insider would come to communicate and deliver news.
According to the agreement, as long as there is a deck chair from the store under the guise at the entrance of the woodware store, it means everything is normal. The person in charge of the contact point wondered if they might already know the function of the recliner since the Central Military Commission had set their sights on this place! In order to eliminate the hidden danger, he had already walked under the backyard wall, then turned around and went to the front. He was going to destroy the recliner and not give the enemy an opportunity. But he never thought that since Zhongtong was already monitoring this place, how could the plainclothes Zhongtong who was monitoring this place not see his actions in the store in front!
The Zhongtong plainclothes officers, who finally noticed something unusual, first saw two guys in the wood shop taking tools to the back, and then saw the shopkeeper of the wood shop coming to the front to move a deck chair in the shop to the backyard. This doesn’t look quite right! In the carpentry shop, which was normal before, no one can be seen now, but their doors and windows are not closed yet! The alert plainclothes officers immediately realized something was wrong and immediately sent out a signal, and then someone rushed into the carpentry shop.
The shopkeeper of the carpentry shop who was dismantling a deck chair in the backyard knew something was wrong when he heard the noise coming from the front. He subconsciously poured kerosene on the couch, and then lit it with a match. Fortunately, his mind was not rigid, and he also knew how to ignite the wood next to him. In Tangcheng on the rooftop in the distance, when he saw someone digging out the backyard of the wood shop, he thought that all the underground party members in the wood shop had evacuated. But what he didn't expect was that gunshots suddenly came from the backyard of the wood shop. outgoing.
After the gunfire, Tang Cheng saw fire and thick smoke rising from the backyard of the wood shop. He screamed in his heart that it was bad. Tang Cheng knew that there should be some underground party members in the wood shop who had not evacuated in time. This was because they were blocked in by Zhongtong's plainclothes and could not get out. What he was most worried about finally happened. Tang Cheng, who was squatting on the roof, immediately took out the Mauser sniper rifle from his equipment bag without any hesitation. The first gunfire came from the shell gun in the hands of the owner of the wood shop, and the subsequent gunshots came from the Zhongtong plainclothes who rushed into the wood shop and fired back.
Although the owner of the wood shop is alone, he uses a shell gun loaded with 20 rounds and is familiar with the environment in the backyard of the wood shop. It can be said that he is waiting for work. On the Zhongtong plainclothes side, relying on their numerical advantage, even though they were temporarily blocked in the narrow passage connecting the back yard of the wood shop, they still had a lively fight with the shop owner. After taking out his weapon, Tang Cheng did not go to the backyard of the wood shop. Instead, he came down from the roof and went to the front of the wood shop.
There were a large number of Zhongtong plainclothes men in front of the woodware store, so the underground party members in the woodware store could only leave through the backyard of the woodware store. What Tang Cheng had to do now was to shoot and injure people in front of the woodware store, taking the opportunity to attract all the attention of the plainclothes officers, and create an opportunity for the remaining underground party members in the backyard of the woodware store to leave. "Bang!" Tangcheng, who was only a hundred meters away from the woodware store, fired on the roof at the intersection of the street. The first shot knocked down a Zhongtong plainclothesman who ran to the door of the woodware store.
Fortunately, Tang Cheng did not shoot to kill people, so his shot only hit the thigh of the plainclothes commander. The plain-clothes Zhongtong who was shot in the thigh screamed and fell heavily to the ground. The other plain-clothes Zhongtong who were following him all spread out and took cover. After a few breaths, someone rushed out regardless of the danger and tried to drag away his companion who was shot in the thigh. However, he was shot again by Tang Cheng, who also injured his thigh and fell to the ground.
Tang Cheng fired two shots and hit two people. Both the plainclothesmen outside and inside the wood shop became cautious. However, there was also a vigilant Zhongtong plainclothes officer who had roughly determined the location of Tangcheng based on the direction in which the bullets were fired. Unfortunately, the pistols they were issued did not have such a long range at all. Even if they reacted and shot at the street entrance, the bullets would not pose any threat to Tangcheng on the roof.
Although Tang Cheng's sudden shooting could not relieve the wood shop owner from all the pressure, it at least gave him a chance to leave. It's a pity that Tang Cheng still overestimated the fighting ability and reaction ability of the shopkeeper of the woodware shop. Tangcheng was jumping around in a hurry, while the man in the backyard of the woodware shop was only focused on fighting with the plainclothes officers of the Central Government. What happened next made Tang Cheng even more unexpected. Among the underground party members who had climbed over the wall and left, two of them actually returned to the backyard of the wood shop.
In the backyard of the carpentry store, the gunshots suddenly became denser. Not only did Tang Cheng feel confused, but even the other plainclothes officers who were blocked outside the store by him looked confused. After more than a dozen breaths, just when Tang Cheng was about to change weapons, an explosion suddenly came from the backyard of the wood shop, and then the gunfire stopped completely. Tang Cheng, who was on the roof at the street entrance, immediately stopped thinking about changing weapons. He only had one thought now, and that was to leave this place of right and wrong as soon as possible.
Tang Cheng was very talented. The explosion that came from the backyard of the wood shop was caused by the two underground party members who returned the same way. The two of them climbed back to the backyard from the wall of the backyard of the wood shop, and saw that the shopkeeper of the wood shop had been pinned to the side of a wooden cabinet. In a hurry, one of them took out a grenade and threw it in. In the passage from the front shop to the backyard. Unfortunately, his skill in throwing grenades was not very good, and the air wave of the explosion also affected them, especially the shopkeeper of the wood shop who was hiding behind the wooden cabinet. He was the first to be hit by the air wave of the explosion and was knocked unconscious.
After hearing the explosion, the plainclothes officers of the Central Government who were blocked outside the woodware store by Tang Cheng did not care about the danger. Someone immediately got up and rushed into the woodware store. In this way, the shopkeeper of the carpentry shop, who had the opportunity to leave, and the two men who came back to help him, were completely controlled by the plainclothes Zhongtong who rushed in without any resistance. Fortunately, Tang Cheng left in time. The intersection where he shot was quickly surrounded by a large number of police and plainclothes officers who heard the gunfire.
