Xie Xuan left Li Junshi's office and returned to his own office. He called Chen Bin from the first department and asked about what happened during this period.
Xie Xuan has not been in Dongtai County for a long time, but a lot of things have happened in Shenpu.
No one has better information than the Secret Service. After listening to Chen Bin's report, Xie Xuan finally understood Shen Pu's situation.
This morning, when Xie Yuan led the troops for training, several soldiers did not perform.
Xie Yuan always loved soldiers as much as his own son and went to visit them in the barracks in person.
As a result, when the soldiers saw Xie Yuan coming in alone, they swarmed him, took out the knives they had hidden long ago, and stabbed him several times. Xie Yuan was killed on the spot.
After the soldiers succeeded, they tried to escape from the barracks, but were discovered by other soldiers. After being beaten, they were taken to the patrol room.
Later, Xie Xuan went to his mailbox and got the instructions given to him by Shancheng: severely punish the murderer!
Xie Xuan went to the safe house with Gong Bing again. Yang Zhiyi had already sent a telegram to the provincial party committee. Gong Bing already knew that Xie Xuan was coming back and had been waiting in the safe house.
Gong Bing said with a sad face: "Xie Yuan is a veritable anti-Japanese hero. The murderer's actions are outrageous. Today, tens of thousands of people have gone to Gujun Camp to express their condolences. Telegrams of condolences from all over the country have kept the Concession Telegraph Office extremely busy. Let's make peace. Tomorrow, at least tens of thousands of people will go to the Gujun Camp to express their condolences. The superiors have instructed that the murderers must be brought to justice. If these murderers are allowed to go unpunished, it will be the greatest shame for the entire war of resistance, the entire country, and the entire nation! "
Xie Xuan said: "I also received a telegram from Shancheng that the murderer must be severely punished. At the same time, Li Junshi also gave me an order. The Japanese have only one request. The murderer should not be handed over to Shancheng. However, it did not say that he cannot be handed over to our party. .”
Gong Bing said: "If the murderer is handed over to us, he will be handed over to Shancheng at that time."
Xie Xuan said firmly: "Then I can't control it. These murderers must face trial. In the worst case, they will die in the concession. They must not be handed over to the Japanese, let alone let them continue to live in this world. Do evil."
He also respected Xie Yuan very much. With a team of several hundred people, he blocked the Japanese army.
After retreating to the concession, many people persuaded Xie Yuan to return to the rear.
But Xie Yuan was determined not to leave. He wanted to see Japan defeated in Shenpu and continue the war with his lone army battalion.
Even if they don't have guns in their hands, they must continue training and wait for the opportunity to fight the Japanese army again.
The Japanese used inducements and threats to win over Xie Yuan many times. After the new Nanjing government was established, Wang Mingzhao even promised that as long as Xie Yuan surrendered to Nanjing, he could be given the position of Army Commander-in-Chief.
However, he sternly rejected all these temptations. He said: "I was born as a Chinese and died as a Chinese ghost. It is my bounden duty to protect the country and the people. I have made up my mind and cannot be swayed by any sweet words or inducements."
Xie Xuan's call back to Shancheng also expressed this attitude.
Those murderers will never leave the concession alive.
However, Shancheng not only gave orders to Shenpu Station Three, but also gave action orders to Shenpu Station: Get rid of the murderer of General Xie Yuan at all costs.
After Xie Yuan was assassinated, Chongqing expressed regret for his murder via telegram, expressed indignation at the murderer's actions, and commended him posthumously as an Army Infantry Major General.
Today, newspapers and periodicals in many places have published special issues for him.
After Xie Xuan returned home, he called Inspector Xiong Huasheng of the Special Service Unit of the Concession Police Department.
"I am Xie Xuan."
Xiong Huasheng said: "I have been waiting for your call for a long time."
He had dealt with Xie Xuan before and assisted Xie Xuan and Matsubara Qianming in the arrest of the concession.
Since then, Xie Xuan has given him a special allowance every month. He used to draw it from everywhere, but after Xie Xuan became deputy director, he drew it from the Secret Service Department.
After the Secret Service Department's small treasury was established, Xiong Huasheng was not short of benefits as long as they were universal benefits.
Xie Xuan said: "I went to Dongtai and just came back. I brought you something. Have you slept? How about we meet now?"
Xiong Huasheng said with a bitter smile: "I can't sleep. I just received a notice from the patrol room. Some brave people broke into the patrol room at night and planned to kill Hao Dingcheng, Long Yaoliang, Zhang Wenqing, and Zhang Guoshun to avenge General Xie Yuan. All police officers People must stay at their posts tonight and be ready to deal with emergencies at any time."
The "Hao Dingcheng, Long Yaoliang, Zhang Wenqing, and Zhang Guoshun" he mentioned were the murderers of Xie Yuan.
These four had long been secretly bribed by the Japanese and had been waiting for an opportunity to assassinate Xie Yuan.
"Caught it?"
Xiong Huasheng shook his head: "No."
There are also many Chinese arresters in the patrol room. Naturally, they sympathize with Xie Yuan and hate these murderers deeply.
If a brave person wants to kill them, the patrol can only do their duty to protect the murderer, but there is no pursuit of the perpetrator.
Xie Xuan said: "These murderers are a hot potato now. What are you going to do? Why don't you leave it to us and we will ensure that they will never be disturbed."
Xiong Huasheng said: "This is impossible. Everyone in Shenpu is staring at them now. If we leave it to you, the people in the police department will drown in saliva, and we Chinese will have no shame in the future. The concession is mixed up.”
If Xie Xuan asked for someone else, he would definitely not stop him.
However, the charges of "Hao Dingcheng, Long Yaoliang, Zhang Wenqing, and Zhang Guoshun" have been confirmed. Those who killed were famous anti-Japanese heroes in the country, and they must be tried.
Xie Xuan said: "You can discuss it as a Frenchman and hand them over to us, or let us guard them. We have no other purpose. We just want to ensure that they are not harmed by hot-headed people."
Xiong Huasheng smiled bitterly and said: "If I had such great ability, I wouldn't just be an inspector in the secret service unit."
This is a game between governments. He, a small inspector, doesn't even have a chance to speak.
The next morning, Xie Xuan gave an order to Shenpu Station 3: The entire Third Action Brigade was dispatched to investigate the situation of Hao Dingcheng, Long Yaoliang, Zhang Wenqing, and Zhang Guoshun. Without his cooperation, nothing can be done rashly.
Xie Xuan then went to the Military Police Special High School Course to find out about the situation from Oaki Yuri.
Xie Xuan smiled and said, "Congratulations, Omu-kun, you did a great job this time."
Oki Yuri shook his head: "The operation is only half done. We must protect those people, restore their freedom, and give them glory and wealth before it can be considered a success."
He was indeed very proud. He was the one who pulled Hao Dingcheng, Long Yaoliang, Zhang Wenqing, Zhang Guoshun and others into the water.
After killing Xie Yuan, the whole of China was indeed alarmed.
If we can keep these few people, it will be a loud slap in the face to China. Now, at most, it will be a thorn in their flesh.
