Black Flag Army

Chapter 56 Attack on the Aircraft Factory

After Lan Jinping left, the intelligence chief Wu Chunfeng came in again and said to Di Xiong, "According to your request, Bian Zhimei and Sun Xiaotie are waiting for your instructions outside the door."

Sun Xiaotie is the son of Beijing storyteller Sun Tiezui. Sun Tiezui offended the Japanese when he was telling the story of "The Black Flag Army's Bloody Battle in Taiwan" in Beijing. He was beaten half to death by several Japanese ronin who broke into his home at night. However, he would rather die than tell who gave him the story. The 20-year-old Sun Xiaotie was also beaten to protect his father. A team of patrolmen heard the noise and rushed to the scene in time, scaring away the Japanese ronin. After Guan Qier of the Beijing Intelligence Station learned about this, he sent a telegram to Wu Chunfeng for instructions, and then sent someone to send the father and son to Baotou. After arriving in Baotou, it happened to be the enrollment of the Intelligence Officer School. Sun Xiaotie signed up and was admitted.

Di Xiong reached out and took out a document from the drawer, then said to Wu Chunfeng, "Let them come in!"

When Bian Zhimei and Sun Xiaotie walked in, they saw that Di Xiong was the only one in the office.

After asking them to sit down, Di Xiong said, "Your mission is to sneak into the Outer Mongolian army's pseudo-capital Kulun and try to enter the mansion of the pseudo-Prime Minister Hang Daduo as a servant. Although Ezhen Khan is a pseudo-emperor, he only cares about indulging in sensual pleasures and pleasures. The political affairs of Outer Mongolia are handled by Prime Minister Hang Daduo. In the Prime Minister's Mansion, you can get important intelligence at the first time."

He handed the document to Bian Zhimei and said, "This document contains a detailed introduction to Hang Dado and other ministers, as well as a photo of Hang Dado. This is information that five intelligence officers exchanged their lives for."

Sun Xiaotie said excitedly: "We will ensure that the mission is completed and the blood of the martyrs will not be shed in vain."

Bian Zhimei looked at the information carefully and said, "The information is very detailed, including the layout of Hang Daduo's house, his and his wives' personalities and hobbies. It is very helpful for our infiltration operation. But after all, I just graduated. I feel that such a heavy burden is placed on me all of a sudden. I feel that my ability is limited. I can only do my best to complete the task."

Di Xiong smiled and said, "You are too modest. You are ranked second among the six female intelligence officers. Instructor Li Laoshi said that you were originally ranked first, but you let Xian Yuji win in the combat test. If even you can't complete the task, then no one else can. Sun Xiaotie is also excellent, ranking fifth among the male students. The four guys in front of him can't be counted. Bian Zhimei is the leader of this intelligence team, and Sun Xiaotie is the deputy leader. Of course, there are dangers. If you have any family matters to tell me, just tell me. I will do my best to help you and let you have no worries."

Bian Zhimei said: "My parents have entered a nursing home and are being taken care of very well. The two children are also living well in the orphanage. I believe they will have a bright future. There is nothing more to say."

Sun Xiaotie also said: "Beihai Hospital cured my father's injuries and allowed him to teach storytelling to more than a dozen military students. He lived a very fulfilling life. Even if he can't come back this time, his younger brother will take care of him in his old age, so he has no regrets."

Di Xiong said: "In order to facilitate the work, you can pretend to be a couple and go to Kulun."

When Sun Xiaotie heard this, he was surprised and excited and stood up. However, Bian Zhimei shook her head and said, "Xiaotie is only 21 years old. I am four years older than him. It is not appropriate. Can't Li Laoshi go?"

Sun Xiaotie quickly retorted, "Who said it's not suitable? I look mature, and people would believe me if I said I was 25. You look so young, you look at most 20 years old, which is completely suitable."

Di Xiong said, "Li Laoshi can't speak Mongolian. Going undercover in a place like the pseudo-Mongolian Prime Minister's Mansion is courting death. If Team Leader Bian thinks Sun Xiaotie is not suitable as a partner, there are two alternates sitting on the chairs in the corridor outside. You should have seen them when you came in just now. Team Leader Bian can choose one of them."

Bian Zhimei saw Sun Xiaotie looking at her nervously, so she smiled and said, "Then let's choose Sun Xiaotie. Aren't those two guys outside Tang Zhan and Yin Quan? One is rude and barbaric, and the other is a perverted voyeur. I can't stand it."

Di Xiong said, "The people in the Supervision Department have already reported your affairs with Li Laoshi to me. Some people advocate arresting you. I said that Li Laoshi has no wife and Bian Zhimei has no husband. It is normal for two single men and women to be together. Why arrest them? You can be together openly. Why do you have to be so sneaky like thieves?"

Bian Zhimei said: "I am with Li Laoshi to atone for my sins. I hurt him so badly back then, so I have to give him a chance to get revenge. Now that the six-month contract period has passed, my relationship with him is over."

When they were leaving, Sun Xiaotie held Bian Zhimei's hand and said angrily, "Why did you just say that we are not suitable to be a fake couple?"

Bian Zhimei smiled and said, "Because you, Tang Zhan and Yin Quan have been pursuing me like crazy in school, I'm worried that you will turn your fake love into real love."

Tang Zhan, who was sitting on a chair outside, stood up and said angrily, "Sun Xiaotie! Why are you holding Sister Bian's hand? Let go!"

Sun Xiaotiehu said, "Last time I reported the arrest of the Jin army assassin and performed a great deed. Juzi said he would reward me with 5,000 yuan, but now the funds are insufficient. He asked me if I had any other way to replace it. I said he would give me Sister Bian as my wife and no reward. Juzi agreed. She is my wife now, why can't I hold her hand?"

Tang Zhan was stunned when he heard this. Yin Quan sneered, "Sun Xiaotie is full of nonsense and loves to brag like his father. How could Ju Zi agree? Sister Bian would not agree either!"

Seeing Sun Xiaotie winking at her, Bian Zhimei said seriously, "What he said is true. Sleeping with him can save Juzi five thousand dollars, so I agreed. Don't rack your brains to pursue me anymore. I am already his woman."

Yin Quan was also stunned. Sun Xiaotie smiled triumphantly, hugged Bian Zhimei and walked away from the two rivals.

At night, at the Red Willow Hotel, Hojo Koichi saw Tachibana Daisuke walk in, and quickly told his men to close the door, then walked over and asked, "What's going on?"

Tachibana Daisuke said, "At first Junko refused to cooperate, so I had to use her family to force her. She agreed to trick Zhu Zhuquan out. As long as he falls into our hands, we will have a way to make him listen to us. Junko heard from Zhu Zhuquan that he will transport a batch of steel from the steel plant to the aircraft factory soon. We can arrange for a few people to hide in the cargo boxes and enter the aircraft factory."

Hojo Koichi said: "Will that Chinese man named Zhu be obedient? There are many stubborn guys among the Chinese!"

Tachibana Daisuke smiled proudly and said: "How hard can the bones of such a lustful Chinese be? The worst that can happen is that he will be tortured. The torture of our Black Dragon Society is unbearable even for those murderous gangsters. How can those who can only make machines endure such a crime?"

After all, Hojo was a disciple of Kawashima Naniwa and was relatively cautious in his actions, so he continued: "Team leader, if we can really get into the aircraft factory, I will also participate in this operation. That Chinese guy may not be honest after entering his own territory, so I will personally bring a pistol to control him."

Tachibana Daisuke said with some disdain: "Hojo-kun, you have been with Kawashima for so long that you have become less courageous? It's up to you." After that, Tachibana casually took a bottle of wine and a bag of peanuts and started eating and drinking, as if the task of blowing up the aircraft factory would be completed immediately. According to his idea, they would carry bombs hidden in cargo boxes to sneak into the aircraft factory, and then find an opportunity to directly blow up the entire aircraft factory. If the other three aircraft builders survived by chance, they would use Zhu Zhuquan to lure them and then kill them.

Earlier that day, when Zhu Zhuquan was doing a massage in the guesthouse, Dong Xuechun accidentally or intentionally slipped a note into his pocket and whispered to him to open it in a place where no one was around. This made Zhu Zhuquan secretly happy, thinking that he had finally won the favor of a beautiful woman. Not long after, Zhu Zhuquan returned to the office and opened the note. The general idea of ​​the note was to ask him to go to the fifth room on the second floor of the Hongliu Hotel at 8 o'clock in the evening, and to destroy the note after reading it. After reading it, Zhu Zhuquan was immediately overwhelmed by lust and ran to the destination excitedly before 8 o'clock.

The person waiting for Zhu Zhuquan was naturally not Dong Xuechun. As soon as he entered the door, he was knocked unconscious by Hojo's club, and then he was tied up by several members of the Black Dragon Society. When Zhu Zhuquan woke up, he found himself in a dim warehouse with his chest exposed, tied to a chair, and in front of him was Tachibana Daisuke, who looked drunk.

When Tachibana Daisuke saw Zhu Zhuquan woke up, he immediately said, "Mr. Zhu, we need your help with something. You have to transport a batch of steel to the aircraft factory in the next few days. I hope you can let my people go with you."

Zhu Zhuquan remained silent. Seeing this, Hojo Koichi picked up a red-hot iron and burned Zhu Zhuquan's chest. Zhu Zhuquan screamed in pain and his chest was immediately burned. Then Tachibana asked another subordinate to whip Zhu Zhuquan with a whip, and shouted in unprofessional Chinese: "Chinese! I know you have an aircraft factory here, and you are one of the people responsible for building aircraft. This kind of thing is not allowed to exist in the Empire of Japan. Now I give you a choice, either die here or help us destroy the plane. If you can cooperate with us, you can survive, and we will also reward you with Miss Dong."

Zhu Zhuquan refused to cooperate at first and yelled, "Little devil, who do you think you are? You still want to intimidate me." Seeing that Zhu Zhuquan refused to cooperate, Tachibana Daisuke immediately took out a pair of pliers and rushed towards Zhu Zhuquan. He cruelly pulled out one of Zhu Zhuquan's teeth with the pliers and said angrily, "I'll see if you dare to be stubborn!" Zhu Zhuquan screamed in pain, and blood immediately flowed from his mouth. The Japanese with the whip continued to whip him. After a series of tortures, Zhu Zhuquan finally compromised and agreed to cooperate with Tachibana Daisuke's people to deliver steel. Of course, what Tachibana would actually deliver was not steel, but bombs.

The next morning, Tachibana arranged for six members of the Black Dragon Society to follow Zhu Zhuquan to the aircraft factory. The leader was Hojo Koichi, and four of the other five were assassins from the Northeast Black Dragon Society. These Japanese had prepared the carriage and cargo boxes in advance. Hojo grabbed Zhu Zhuquan with a gun and forced him to be the driver. Tachibana's assistant Ishii Taro sat in the carriage, and the other four Japanese assassins hid in four cargo boxes, hiding a large amount of explosives in the boxes.

The carriage wobbled towards the aircraft factory. Zhu Zhuquan hesitated as he drove. He knew that if he let the Japanese go, he would become a traitor and Mr. Feng's dream of flying airplanes would be ruined in his hands. But if he resisted, he would die immediately. While Zhu Zhuquan was in a trance, the carriage had already arrived at the entrance of the aircraft factory.

There were four guards at the gate of the aircraft factory and a machine gun. The captain of the guard on duty today was Wang Dachun, Wang Shitou's cousin. He recognized Zhu Zhuquan and knew that he was going to purchase goods recently, so he immediately shouted, "Director Zhu, are you here to deliver steel?"

Zhu Zhuquan looked nervous as he slowly stopped the car and walked towards Wang Dachun. Hojo Koichi immediately pointed a gun at Zhu Zhuquan's back and got out of the car with him. Zhu Zhuquan said to Wang Dachun with a pale face: "Yes, the steel just arrived... today..."

Wang Dachun asked with some confusion: "Director Zhu, why are you driving by yourself today? Where is the driver Lao Zhang? Also, why does the person behind you look unfamiliar? I don't seem to have seen him before."

Zhu Zhuquan replied nervously: "Old Zhang is sick. This man is... someone I hired temporarily to move things. He... can't drive. Please let us in."

Although Wang Dachun was very suspicious of this unfamiliar man, he did not dare to offend the deputy factory director Zhu Zhuquan, so he ordered the carriage to pass and the crimson gate slowly opened.

Zhu Zhuquan was very regretful after getting back on the carriage, but he did not have the courage to explain the truth to Wang Dachun. Seeing that Wang Dachun was about to let them go, Hojo Koichi could not help laughing. At this time, Zhu Zhuquan suddenly remembered his dream. He and Feng Ru and others were stimulated by the Russo-Japanese War in 1905 and were determined to serve the country with industry. They resigned from high-paying positions in large American companies and opened an aircraft factory with difficulty. He recalled the time he spent with Feng Ru, Zhu Zhaohuai and others, and the passion in his heart finally defeated his cowardice. Zhu Zhuquan did not drive again, but quickly jumped out of the car and shouted: "He is Japanese!"

Before he could finish his words, Zhu Zhuquan was shot in the back by Hojo Koichi and died on the spot.

Wang Dachun heard the shouts and saw Hojo Koichi firing. He and other guards immediately fired at Hojo Koichi's position. Other guards also rushed over from all corners of the factory and fired at the carriage from all sides. Hojo was agile and although he avoided the first round of bullets and hid under the carriage, there were too many guards shooting. They approached and continued to shoot. Hojo Koichi was eventually hit by several bullets and died on the spot. Taro Ishii in the rear carriage was shot in the chest as soon as he showed his head. He had just pulled the trigger of a grenade when he fell to the ground and died. With a loud bang, three guards were injured by the grenade. Because the grenade exploded on the ground, it did not detonate the explosives on the carriage. The guards immediately rushed to the carriage to check. The four Japanese in the box heard the gunshots and just climbed out of the box. The two sides engaged in a close fight. One guard was shot dead in the chest by a Japanese. The shooter was immediately killed and the other three were wounded and captured alive. If Wang Dachun had not shouted "Catch them alive!", the three Japanese would have been killed. Although the four Japanese killers were highly skilled in martial arts and marksmanship, they were trapped in the carriage and could not move. They were also outnumbered. The attack on the aircraft factory ultimately failed.

Half an hour later, a large number of police and soldiers rushed to several hotels in Hongliu Town, and fierce gunfire rang out. Tachibana Daisuke, who was staying at the Beimen Hotel, heard that something was wrong and jumped out of the back window on the second floor to escape. He robbed a passerby's horse and quickly fled from Hongliu Town, running towards Tokto County in the south. Several cavalrymen behind him were chasing him relentlessly. The person riding in the front was Leng Hanbing with a blue-gray face.
