Chapter 1578: Picking up an important person
Xiang Chu picked up a Springfield rifle and said with a smile:
"Old Liu! Let's see how you shoot."
Liu Zhengxiong said angrily, "How can we compare?"
"Bang!"
Xiang Chu fired a shot into the air.
"thump!"
A wild goose fell to the ground.
Liu Zhengxiong glanced up at the sky and shook his head.
"I can't beat you! I give up."
Xiang Chu smiled and said, "Then roast this wild goose."
Liu Zhengxiong shouted, "You're still thinking about eating at this critical moment."
Xiang Chu said angrily, "What are you thinking? I told you to roast it and give it to Mr. Wu."
Liu Zhengxiong picked up the wild goose and said with a smile, "Why didn't you tell me earlier? Catch another one. I haven't eaten a swan yet."
Qian Fu laughed and said, "A toad wants to eat swan flesh!"
Liu Zhengxiong shouted, "You little bastard! You're the toad."
At this moment, a car and two trucks were speeding towards here.
Xiang Chu put on the general's uniform decorated with medals and put on a military cap.
Soon, three cars stopped beside him.
40 plainclothes officers jumped out of the car angrily and were stunned to see a general leading dozens of elite soldiers, pointing rifles they had never seen before at them.
A colonel got out of the car and was shocked when he saw Xiang Chu's outfit.
Xiang Chu asked coldly: "Who are you?"
The colonel saluted and said respectfully, "Mr. Chu! I am Chang Gui, the head of the Central Bureau of Investigation's Xi'an intelligence station. By order of the bureau chief, I invite you and Mr. Wu to come to Xi'an for a chat."
Xiang Chu sneered and said, "You brought so many people here, it's obvious that you want to kidnap or attack me directly, please go back!"
Chang Gui smiled awkwardly and said, "Since Lord Chu knows everything, please hand Mr. Wu over to us so I can report back."
Xiang Chu smiled bitterly and said, "Leave it to you? How can I report it? The Supreme Command asked me to send Mr. Wu back to Yan'an. If anything happens to him, I will die."
Chang Gui said with a forced smile, "Mr. Chu! The higher-ups are just pretending, they won't do anything to you at all."
Xiang Chu waved his hand and said, "Stop flattering me! Please go back."
Chang Gui shook his head and said, "I won't go back until I see Mr. Wu."
After he finished speaking, he waved his hand behind him, and the plainclothes officers of the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics raised their guns.
Xiang Chu sneered, "What? You still want to leave your life here?"
Chang Gui said sarcastically, "Lord Chu! The worst that can happen is that both sides will suffer losses."
Xiang Chu was so angry that his teeth were itching, but there was nothing he could do.
If they shoot face to face, their brothers will surely suffer heavy losses.
At this time, another car and two trucks drove over.
Three vehicles stopped and dozens of fully armed Kuomintang soldiers jumped out.
A captain rushed to Xiang Chu and reported loudly:
"General Chu! I'm Commander Hu's secretary, and I've brought you a ton of gasoline and some dry food."
Xiang Chu glanced at the captain and nodded, saying, "Old Hu is quite loyal. It's not in vain that I made this friend. Captain! I don't want to kill these robbers. Let your people drive them away. If anyone dies, it will be my responsibility."
"Yes!"
The captain accepted the order respectfully.
He waved his hand and shouted, "Everyone, listen! Commander Hu said that General Chu must not be in trouble on his territory. Protect General Chu. Go!"
"Yes!"
The Kuomintang soldiers rushed forward and pointed their guns at the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics agents.
Chang Gui said angrily, "Secretary Xiong! How dare you ruin Director Chen's plan?"
Secretary Xiong whispered, "Stationmaster Chang! He who knows the current situation is a hero. Don't you think about what kind of person General Chu is? Can your Director Chen compare? If he makes a mistake, your life will be in danger."
Chang Gui was startled, and felt that what he said made sense. He waved his hand and said:
"withdraw!"
He turned around, got into the car, and left quickly with his men.
Xiang Chu said gratefully: "Secretary Xiong! Thank you."
Secretary Xiong said hurriedly, "General Chu! You're too polite. Please send someone to load all the fuel and supplies from the car behind you onto yours."
Liu Zhengxiong said hurriedly: "I'll take the brothers to move it."
Xiang Chu said in astonishment: "Secretary Xiong! There are also supplies? I should really thank Lao Hu for thinking of this."
Secretary Xiong smiled bitterly and said, "General Chu! I added the supplies to the allocation list. There's a shortage of supplies in Yan'an right now, so it would be inconvenient for you to go there."
Xiang Chu looked at him, feeling strange in his heart, and said with a smile:
"Okay! Thank you. If you encounter any difficulties in the future, please come to me."
Secretary Xiong said happily: "Thank you, General Chu!"
After Liu Zhengxiong and his men finished their work, they shouted:
"Mr. Chu! The goods have been loaded, we can leave now."
Xiang Chu patted Secretary Xiong on the shoulder and said gratefully:
"Thank you! Goodbye."
"Goodbye!"
Secretary Xiong nodded heavily.
Xiang Chu got in the car and left quickly with the convoy.
Gan Rong laughed and said, "Lord Chu! Secretary Xiong not only sent fuel, but also a large amount of rice, flour, potatoes, oil, salt, pork, and canned food. I really didn't expect that."
Xiang Chu said thoughtfully: "Hmm! His eyes are bright, he is not an ordinary person!"
Road east of Lüxiadianzi Village, Linqu, Shandong.
Doihara Kenji lay on the ground, picked up a horse dung bomb and said angrily:
"Baga! Takahashi Komasa and his cavalry are actually heading east."
Ninagawa Nishiemon asked in confusion, "General! How can you be so sure these are our cavalry?"
Doihara Ken'er got up, threw the horse dung bomb at him, and scolded him, "The horses in the empire are fed fine grains. Can't you tell the difference?"
Ninagawa Nishiemon smiled bitterly and said, "Even if you could tell, we two wouldn't be able to catch up with Takahashi Komasa."
Doihara Xian'er smiled and said, "No! Takahashi Komasa will be back here soon. They forgot something very important."
Ninagawa Nishiemon asked in confusion, "What is that?"
Doihara Kan'er unfurled the military flag and sneered, "How far can an army without a flag advance? Nishiemon! Do you think he'll come back to get the regimental flag?"
Ninagawa Nishiemon took the flag and said happily:
"Yes! He will definitely come back to get it."
At this time, people in the east were shouting and horses were neighing, and dust was flying.
Soon, a large group of Japanese cavalry came running over.
The leader was a major who ran to Doihara Kan'ei and dismounted.
Doihara Kan'er unfurled the regimental flag and sneered, "Koizumi Junshiro! You've come back to retrieve the flag for Takahashi Komasa, haven't you? Humph!"
Junshiro Koizumi shook his head and said, "No! I have discovered Takahashi Komasa's plot and have come back to rejoin the team."
Doihara Kan'er said with satisfaction, "Not bad! You are indeed an outstanding officer of the Empire. Where is Takahashi Komasa?"
Junshiro Koizumi said with a smile: "General! He has no military flag and will be back soon."
Doihara Kan'er said happily, "Yoshi! Koizumi-kun! Send someone to call Takahashi Komasa. If he can return immediately, I will forgive him for what happened."
"Hello!"
Junshiro Koizumi hurriedly accepted the order.
South of Yan'an, Sanshilipu checkpoint.
Many young people came to Yan'an from all over the country to welcome the inspection.
Border security officers conducted particularly careful inspections to prevent spies from infiltrating.
However, there is a fence separating them, so they cannot see each other during the inspection.
"Ta-ta! Ta-ta!"
Two cadres came on horseback from the north and dismounted behind the inspection post.
The head of the security department stepped forward and asked in surprise, "Commander Chen! Director Li! Why did you come here in person?"
The security officers stopped what they were doing and looked at the two leaders.
Brigadier General Chen said with a smile, "Oh! I'm here to pick up an important person."
Director Li ordered, "Continue the investigation and be sure to be thorough."
"Yes!"
The security chief hurriedly took the order.
