Siheyuan, my new life

The night temperature in Beijing in the twelfth lunar month was close to minus fifteen or sixteen degrees Celsius. All the personnel preparing to participate in tonight's operation were resting in the large cafeteria of the training base.

There were blazing fires in several large stoves, and the temperature in the cafeteria was kept at more than ten degrees above zero.

In addition to the commandos and 150 security guards, there are also 300 public security officers drawn from the branch who appeared here tonight.

After discussing with Hu Dahai, Yu Lin directly asked these comrades to gather at the training base at around four o'clock in the afternoon. The external reason was that the Political Department of the Municipal Bureau was conducting ideological education and propaganda for these public security officers here, and borrowed the training base of the Security Department of the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill. After all, the conditions here were far better than those at the branch office.

At the same time, all cadres above the level of director and deputy director of each police station of Dongcheng District Branch were gathered in the branch conference room, where Director Zheng of the Political Department of the Municipal Bureau personally conducted ideological education and propaganda for everyone. Except for Deputy Director Qin Ming, who also served as the director of the Security Department of the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill, all other leaders appeared in the conference room.

In order to avoid arousing suspicion from those interested, all police officers who came to the Red Star Steel Rolling Mill Security Department training base did not carry weapons. The outside world had no idea that in the gun warehouse of this training base, there were weapons and ammunition that could equip thousands of people.

As time passed slowly, at ten o'clock in the evening, Lin Yu, dressed in casual clothes, walked into the base cafeteria accompanied by Qin Ming and other directors. There were also six men in their thirties with ordinary figures and looks next to him. If they had not followed Lin Yu, no one would have noticed them if they had blended into the crowd.

At this time, all the people in the cafeteria had been neatly arranged into three squares. All of them were wearing a military coat and a military cotton hat on their heads. Everyone had a pistol hanging on their waist and a rifle on their shoulders, and they looked at the people walking by with serious expressions.

Lin Yu stood straight in front of the team and said loudly: "Comrades, according to the instructions of the city, all black markets in Dongcheng District will be thoroughly cracked down at 12 o'clock tonight. Before starting the action, I emphasize the discipline again. All personnel must strictly follow the order and are not allowed to act on their own. The last point is to pay attention to safety. Anyone who dares to resist is allowed to be shot or even killed. The action begins now."

Following Lin Yu's order, teams of armed security guards and public security officers, led by their respective leaders, quickly walked out of the cafeteria and soon disappeared into the night.

Under the guidance of two personnel from relevant departments, Lin Yu and Zhang Shangwu led nearly two hundred people behind them, stepping on the thick snow and quickly approaching the target area. After nearly half an hour, the personnel from the relevant departments who were responsible for leading the way suddenly stopped. Zhang Shangwu quickly waved to the team behind him, and everyone stopped quietly.

One of the people in charge of leading the group pointed to a forest about four or five hundred meters away and whispered, "Director Lin, after passing through the forest in front, the black market is behind us. There used to be more than a dozen abandoned houses there, but now they are being used by the organizers behind the black market. We have gone around to the back of the black market. If so many of us come directly from the front, it will definitely alert the guy in charge of keeping watch on the black market. According to our long-term observation, the black market organizers have set up three secret sentries in front, each with two people."

Lin Yu nodded slightly. In fact, in order to ensure the smooth operation tonight, especially since tonight was the first official appearance of the City Commando, Lin Yu would never allow any mistakes to happen. Therefore, he had already sent out bodyguards like Zhou Tian. There were already two bodyguards hiding in the void above each black market, always paying attention to the movements below. Lin Yu had already ordered that ordinary gun battles should not be interfered unless the situation was critical. After all, the team also needed to go through the test of actual combat. However, once the opponent used powerful weapons such as grenades and explosives, let the bodyguards stop it secretly. He wanted to train the team through actual combat, but he could not watch his men sacrifice.

After listening to the introduction of the personnel from the relevant departments, Lin Yu raised his hand slightly in the direction of the action team. Two burly men walked over quickly. They were the captain and deputy captain of the third team, Wei Daniu and He Yong respectively.

Without waiting for the two men to salute, Lin Yu began to instruct: "Captain Wei, you lead 20 team members to follow the comrades from the relevant departments around to the front of the woods. After confirming the positions of all the secret sentries, start the operation at 12 o'clock. Try not to fire when clearing the secret sentries to avoid alerting the enemy."

Then he instructed the deputy captain He Yong: "Deputy Captain He, at 12 o'clock sharp, you will lead 20 team members to attack the enemy from the woods. Pay special attention to the targets that the comrades from the relevant departments have asked to focus on. Don't let any of them go."

He Yong nodded solemnly, and Lin Yu whispered in his ear: "We must also protect the safety of comrades in relevant departments."

After Wei Daniu and He Yong led their men away, Lin Yu smiled and whispered to Zhang Shangwu who had been following him urgently: "Old Zhang, you don't have to worry. I don't have to lead the charge myself. Now we each lead half of the people and slowly surround them from both sides. There are people entering and leaving the black market right in front of us. Let's ambush on both sides first. After the front and back sides start to act, we must surround the entire black market area as soon as possible. Tell everyone that they only need to guard against it and capture all the escaped people. Finally, bring them all back and check them one by one to avoid any fish slipping through the net. Order everyone to shoot to stop the escaped people from the black market if they still do not obey the command after the warning shot. Never be soft-hearted to those who dare to resist."

Zhang Shangwu smiled softly: "Secretary, everyone is worried that you will insist on rushing to the front line, so they repeatedly asked me to follow you closely."

Lin Yu shook his head slightly: "Thank you for your concern. I will remind you to be vigilant when we take action later. Don't get shot by the guys who are mixed in with the ordinary people."

Zhang Shangwu said with a smile: "This afternoon, the comrades from the relevant departments have repeatedly emphasized various precautions to our people. I have to admit that they are still professional."

Lin Yu nodded: "When there is a chance in the future, please ask the relevant departments to send people to give our people lessons to enhance everyone's ability to prevent and combat enemy spies. Okay, the time is almost up, let's act separately."

So the two of them led more than 70 people to bypass the woods and quietly move towards the black market area.
