At this time, Ma Hanshan raised a question: "We don't have enough explosives to blow up the back wall now. The Japanese inspections were very strict some time ago. So much explosives can't be transported into the city at all."
Chen Binchang said: "I didn't think about this problem in advance, so I didn't bring it with me when I came from Tianjin, but maybe it can be shipped in tonight."
Huang Guobin asked: "Where can we find so many explosives now?"
Chen Binchang said: "There will be a friend coming later, Commander Bao of the 1st Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Anti-Japanese Division of the Eighth Route Army. They must have him."
Commander Bao of the Eighth Route Army had more than 800 guerrillas under his command. They were called the Jidong Anti-Japanese Guerrilla Force. They fought against the Japanese and puppets dozens of times without any defeat. The Japanese and puppet troops they fought were miserable. Huang Guobin knew about this Bao. Commander, at that time, the famous women and children who Bao Commander were well known in the eastern Hebei area. People affectionately called him "Captain Bao", "Commander Bao" and "Captain Bao", while the enemy regarded him as their nemesis and called him Bao the King of Hell.
Huang Guobin asked: "Are we fighting jointly with the Eighth Route Army this time?"
Chen Binchang nodded: "Now is the period of cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, and Commander Bao contacted us this time. They also want to teach the Japanese a lesson."
Huang Guobin said: "If this is the case, our certainty will be greatly increased. I wonder what action the Central Unification Committee will take?"
Chen Binchang said: "We can't control the Central Unification Committee, but we should take some action."
The incompatibility between the Central Command and the Military Command was well known within the Kuomintang. In August 1928, after the old man resigned from office, in order to make a comeback, he ordered his cronies Chen Lifu, Chen Guofu and others to secretly establish the "Central Club" to oppose the Guangxi clique, creating a public opinion that the old man was unjustly dismissed.
Since the English abbreviation of "Central Club" is CC, this organization is also called "Zhongtong" or "CC Department".
Chen Lifu is the director of the Central Bureau of Statistics, and Xu Enzeng and Ye Xiufeng are the deputy directors. Because the leaders of the Central Unification Committee were all important figures within the Kuomintang, they controlled party affairs, education, justice, culture, and the police across the country.
Gradually, the central government became too weak and even began to threaten the old man's prestige. In 1931, the old man was attacked by the party and was forced to step down for the second time. The old man already had the "CC clique" in control of the party and wanted to control the army after he left office, so he organized his cronies in the military circles, especially the Huangpu clique, to form a group named "Fuxing Society". The old man personally served as the president, and later handed it over to Boss Dai. This is the origin of military rule.
Military unification was originally a product of checks and balances on central unification, just like Dongchang and Xichang in the Ming Dynasty. In order to compete for favor in front of the old man, the two sides attacked each other by any means, or tried every means to obtain intelligence in advance to win the favor of the old man.
There is a female spy named Xiang Yingxin in the military command. She is not only beautiful, but also very capable. She is a confidant trained by Boss Dai.
Boss Dai ordered her to break into Zhongtong and drive a wedge between Er Chen. This Xiang Yingxin imitated Diao Chan, seducing Er Chen and turning them into enemies.
Later, it was revealed that Er Chen hated Boss Dai deeply, and the Central Commander and the Military Commander were also at odds with each other. The old man liked to see the two fighting, and sometimes even provoked them. This was also the balancing act that the old man was best at.
However, when Xiang Yingxin returned to the army, Boss Dai still commended her and betrothed her to Mao Renfeng.
While several people were talking, a loud voice sounded outside, and Chen Binchang and Ma Hanshan came out to greet them.
"Commander Bao is here. Please come in quickly."
Commander Bao is a tall man with a solemn and calm demeanor, a resolute face, and an inviolable aura in his eyes. He behaved confidently and generously, shaking hands with everyone.
Commander Bao arrived at the conference room, and everyone chatted for a while. Commander Bao looked at Huang Guobin and said that indeed a hero comes from a young age.
Huang Guobin wondered if he knew that he was the Golden Leopard, otherwise why would he say that about himself.
Everyone began to discuss the battle plan. When Commander Bao heard that Huang Guobin was in charge of the west gate and south gate, he nodded and said: "This is better. I am also worried about how to transport the weapons. Tonight, I disguised the people and weapons as a convoy delivering food." , brought in from the west gate, let’s do a big job tomorrow.”
Huang Guobin asked: "Is there any explosive that can blow up the back wall?"
"Yes, if they have enough to blow up the bunkers, as long as they can be brought in, I will blow up the Peking City Hall for them!"
The explosives needed to blow up a bunker would definitely be enough to blow up a wall.
Everyone discussed the details and agreed to enter the city in the evening.
Huang Guobin came out of the Shanxi Guild Hall and returned to the South City Gate for inspection. Lin Abao came over to report that he had arrested someone, your cousin Liu Erkui.
Huang Guobin asked depressedly: "How did this kid get here?"
"He rode a bicycle for more than 100 kilometers to Peiping. When he entered the city gate, the people below searched him and found that he was carrying a gun. They detained him. I was afraid that he would cause trouble in the city, so I locked him up. .”
This cousin is really a stubborn donkey. Fortunately, his own people guard the city gate, otherwise this kid would have been arrested and sent to the gendarmerie.
When Huang Guobin saw Liu Erkui, Liu Erkui said excitedly: "Brother, I'm here to help you."
Huang Guobin didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so he had someone find him a policeman's uniform to put on, and said to him: "Guard the door for me honestly, and don't get into trouble."
I feel uneasy again, so I’d better let him follow me! He said to him: "You will be my bodyguard and follow me faithfully. Otherwise, you will ride your bicycle back to Tianjin now."
Liu Erkui patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely be obedient. Just let me follow you."
Huang Guobin thought that he would be hungry after traveling so far, so he took him to Quanjude to eat roast duck.
The key is that you also want to try it. The two of them arrived at Quanjude and ordered a roast duck and a large table of dishes for two oceans, which was really not cheap.
The roast duck arrived soon. The duck was tender and crispy, and the chef cut it into thin crispy skin and duck meat on the spot. Served with shredded green onions and sweet noodle sauce, it is really unforgettable. The two of them feasted happily.
Like a hungry wolf, Liu Erkui swept away half of the dishes on the table, leaving the chef stunned for a moment.
After eating and drinking, Huang Guobin went to Xu Zhongyi and told him not to attend the dinner to avoid hurting innocent people.
When the two arrived at the hotel where Xu Zhongyi lived, the military police guard carefully checked their IDs, asked them to leave their guns, and searched their bodies before letting them in.
When he arrived at the hotel lobby, Huang Guobin saw an acquaintance, Zhang Wanting, and she actually came too.
She was sitting in the lobby talking and laughing with a middle-aged man. When she saw Huang Guobin, her expression changed, and then she pretended not to notice and continued talking and laughing with the middle-aged man.
Huang Guobin gave up the idea of saying hello to her and continued to go upstairs to find Xu Zhongyi.
When he arrived at Xu Zhongyi's room, Huang Guobin asked Liu Erkui to guard the door while he went into the room to talk to Xu Zhongyi.
Xu Zhongyi asked: "Why is Liu Erkui here?"
"He came to Peiping on his bicycle. He was detained when he entered the city. Fortunately, one of his own was guarding the door, otherwise he would have been in big trouble."
Xu Zhongyi smiled bitterly and said, "This kid really doesn't want to worry about anything."
Huang Guobin told Xu Zhongyi the plan and told him not to go to the dinner.
Xu Zhongyi frowned and said, "If this is the case, the Japanese will be suspicious during the interrogation afterwards."
Huang Guobin took out a pack of laxatives from his pocket and handed it to Xu Zhongyi: "I have already thought about it for you. I just bought it at the drugstore. If I take it tomorrow, I will have diarrhea for a day and no one will suspect it."
Xu Zhongyi said with a grimace: "It's too much of a loss for you. I'll think of another way."
Huang Guobin thought of the Zhang Wanting he had just met, and said to Xu Zhongyi: "I just met Zhang Wanting downstairs. Can you think of a way to prevent her from attending the dinner?"
Xu Zhongyi said: "Let me think of a way."
