Xu Huanshan hadn't contacted Tang Cheng for a long time, and when he called, it was already close to bedtime. Realizing that there might be trouble, Tang Cheng patiently listened to Xu Huanshan's narrative on the other end of the phone. After thinking about it for a moment, Tang Cheng spoke. "Old Xu, it's not that I don't help! You know what I'm doing. If I attract some people's attention, what I do now will be enough to make me and my family prisoners, and even implicate more people. .”
The sudden call from Xu Huanshan was because a contact point of Chongqing's underground party organization was taken away by the Central Unification Committee half an hour ago. Although the underground party members in the contact point fought back, the Central Unification had more people and was equipped with assault rifles.
g. In the end, three of the five underground party members in the contact point were killed and two were injured, and the Central Command captured the two members in hand. Xu Huanshan received the news that one of the two underground party members captured by the Central Command was a liaison officer sent to Chongqing by the southern Sichuan guerrillas.
"Old Xu, let alone that person carrying any confidential information, even if he carries important information that can destroy the entire underground party organization in Chongqing, I can't help. First, I don't know the actions of the Central Committee tonight , Secondly, I don’t know where they will imprison people. Could it be that you want me to break into the Central Unification Headquarters at night to help you rescue people? You think too highly of me! What is the environment in the city now? , you don’t know, if you attack the Central Unification Headquarters at this time, are you afraid that I won’t live long or something?”
Faced with Xu Huanshan's unreasonable request, Tang Cheng was also very rude and had no intention of saving Xu Huanshan's face. He mocked the other party on the phone. Xu Huanshan, who was on the other end of the phone, was speechless by Tang Cheng's rebuke. He knew what was going on in Chongqing right now. At this time, the consequences of attacking the Central Unification Headquarters will definitely be huge. Once the man in the Nan'an Villa is outraged, a storm awaits the underground party organizations in Chongqing.
"Old Xu, you have time to work hard with me, you'd better find a way and seize the time to evacuate those companions you think may be exposed! I would like to advise you one more thing, don't underestimate the Zhongtong, they will not Maybe everyone is a loser." Tang Cheng said he wouldn't help, but after he hung up the phone, he still changed his clothes, quietly walked out of the backyard, and disappeared into the night. The place Xu Huanshan mentioned on the phone was in two directions from the small street where Tang's family was located, so it took Tang Cheng more than an hour to get to the location of the incident.
Zhongtong's work efficiency was as slow as ever. When Tang Cheng, dressed in black, arrived at the starting position, the plainclothes Zhongtong who was responsible for the finishing touches had not yet left. Tang Cheng, standing in the shadows, watched from a distance as the plainclothes officers of the Central Committee walked in and out of the street shops in front. After quietly observing for a while, Tang Cheng, who had regained his composure, immediately used the shadows on the street as cover and began to move forward quietly. As he got closer, Tang Cheng could vaguely hear what these plainclothes officers were saying.
Tang Cheng waited quietly for a while, and after confirming that there were only a few plainclothes Zhongtong officers responsible for finishing, Tang Cheng, who had been hiding himself, quickly rushed out from the street. When the Zhongtong plainclothes man who was coming out of the store with something in his arms spotted Tang Cheng, Tang Cheng, who was running quickly, was only three or four meters away from him. At such a close distance, the plainclothes Zhongtong officer had no chance to fight back. Just when he opened his mouth to shout, Tang Cheng rushed in front of him in two short steps.
Tang Cheng, who didn't give him a chance at all, raised his hand and punched the plainclothes Zhongtong in the throat. The plainclothes Zhongtong stumbled backwards after suffering a heavy blow, but Tang Cheng reached out and grabbed his collar. The Zhongtong plainclothesman was hit in the throat by Tang Cheng with his fist. He could no longer make a sound, but he did not lose consciousness. He still wanted to struggle, but Tang Cheng punched him again and completely knocked him unconscious. The other plainclothes officers in the store did not pay attention to what was going on at the door of the store. By the time they realized something was wrong, Tang Cheng had already entered the store.
The pistol raised in Tang Cheng's hand made the plainclothes officers in the store shut their mouths honestly. None of them recognized Tang Cheng, whose face was covered with a black scarf. "Where were the people you captured here taken?" Tang Cheng did not hide his voice, but he spoke in standard Sichuan dialect. Tang Cheng's tone and the content of his words made these plainclothes officers almost immediately believe that the guy in front of them with a black scarf on his face was a member of the Chongqing underground party. Otherwise, the other party would not pay attention to him. The two wounded underground party members they captured.
But less than 2 hours after their arrest operation here ended, the other party had already come to the door. Could it be that they had been paying attention to the situation? These little leaders among the Zhongtong plainclothes had already thought about it in their hearts, but he immediately overturned the idea. Because if this masked man is a member of the Chongqing underground party, then he will never watch helplessly as their people are taken away from here. But if this person is not a member of the Chongqing underground party, who can he be?
Tang Cheng, who was holding a pistol in his hand, naturally did not have the time or energy to pay attention to what these plainclothes Zhongtong civilians were thinking at the moment. Seeing that these guys didn't want to speak, Tang Cheng raised his left hand hanging by his side, and a short knife flew out of Tang Cheng's left hand and nailed it to the neck of a plainclothes official from the opposite side. "Let me tell you, where has the person you captured here been taken to? If you don't tell him, he will be your fate." Tang Cheng took action too fast, and the plainclothes Central Commander-in-Chief on the other side couldn't even There is no time to react.
After being severely scolded by Tang Cheng, the plainclothes leader hurriedly spoke. "We were just ordered to stay and finish the work. I really don't know where the captured people will be taken! However, according to convention, injured targets like this will be sent to the nearest hospital for treatment as soon as possible after being captured. The closest one to here is the Army Hospital!" I have to say that this plainclothes leader is really smart, and he explained everything thoroughly in just a few words. Tang Cheng was planning to rescue people tonight. He was not planning to go on a killing spree, so he just knocked out the remaining few people and then turned around and left.
When Tang Cheng rushed to the Army Hospital, the plainclothes officers who had arrived with the wounded had already left half an hour ago. The doctor on duty got a roll of banknotes from Tang Cheng. After repeated assurances, Tang Cheng could only leave here with regrets. If it were in the past, Tang Cheng would definitely rush to the Central Unification Headquarters to look for opportunities to save people. But now in Tangcheng, he had to consider a lot, especially the current situation in Chongqing, which made him have to be careful when doing things.
Tang Cheng did not go home directly. Instead, he pried open a store halfway and called Xu Huanshan using the phone in the store. "I was a step too late. Those of you who were captured should be detained at the Central Unification Headquarters. Don't think about rescuing them. The one who directed the arrest tonight was Zhou Yishan from the Second Section of the Central Unification Division. I heard This person is very cunning, and he is considered to be Er Chen’s confidant. I don’t know how you got the news. If this was a secret arrest by the Central Government, there is no way the news would have leaked out so quickly.”
Xu Huanshan was shocked when he heard Tang Cheng's words, especially the last sentence, which caused a layer of cold sweat to break out on Xu Huanshan's back. Xu Huanshan was able to get the news so quickly because there were insiders from the Chongqing underground party within the Central Unification Committee. However, Xu Huanshan, who was in a hurry, only paid attention to the captured comrades, but ignored the insiders who spread the news. According to what Tang Cheng said on the phone, if tonight's arrest was a secret operation by the Central Government, how could they allow the news to leak out?
According to Xu Huanshan's understanding of Zhongtong, this possibility almost does not exist. So, there is only one explanation for this. This may be a test by Zhongtong, or a trap. The purpose is not only to fish, but also to find out what is inside them. the traitor. Xu Huanshan was secretly glad at this moment. He was glad that he called Tang Cheng for help. If it hadn't been for Tang Cheng's reminder, he would have probably exposed the insider who was hiding deep in the Central Unification Headquarters.
After informing Xu Huanshan of the situation, Tang Cheng returned home. During breakfast the next morning, Deputy Captain Huang who came to Tang Cheng brought news about Zhongtong. It is nothing new for the Central Government to arrest people in the city, but what Deputy Captain Huang brought was the news that the Central Government headquarters was conducting internal screening. "Never mind him! Anyway, the Central Unification matter has nothing to do with us!" On the surface, Tang Cheng showed he didn't care, but in his heart, he secretly sympathized with the underground party insiders at the Central Unification Headquarters.
That afternoon, Tangcheng received news of a firefight at the Central Unification Headquarters. In a later phone call with Deputy Head Huang, the well-informed Deputy Head Huang confirmed that the Central Unification Headquarters had found out the exact information about underground party insiders. In the afternoon exchange of fire at the Central Unification Headquarters, the underground party insiders who were found were unwilling to be caught and directly launched a solo charge at the Central Unification Headquarters. Tang Cheng did not ask questions carefully on the phone, but according to Deputy Commander Huang, the losses to the Central Unification Headquarters were considerable.
Before dinner, Tang Cheng received another call from the bureau chief. The bureau chief on the other end of the phone also confirmed the news. The underground party insider who was found by the Central Unification Headquarters, with the idea of fighting to the death, gave the Central Unification Headquarters six deaths and twelve injuries. And most importantly, Zhou Yishan, who led the arrest team last night, was the first to be killed by an underground party insider. In addition, two telecommunications experts from the Central Unification Headquarters also died in this exchange of fire. All in all, the losses suffered by the Central Unification Headquarters this time were too great.
