Sassoon Building rooftop observation deck.

The Sassoon Building was the tallest building in Shanghai at the time, with an observation deck on the rooftop and high-powered binoculars for games to enjoy the beautiful scenery on the Bund and the Huangpu River.

Today, however, the Sassoon Building has closed the observation deck on the rooftop.

It was not Sassoon himself who gave this order, but the new captain of the guard, George.

Sassoon himself did not say much about George's unauthorized move.

Because of Commodus's vague words, Sassoon really thought that George had a background in Mi **, so he didn't dare to say a word about George's arrest of Huang Jinrong, let alone such a trivial matter as closing the rooftop observation deck?

On the rooftop observation deck, Zhong Yi was observing the surrounding movements with An Zhenyuan.

An Zhenyuan locked the field of vision of the high-powered telescope at the intersection of Nanjing Road and Sichuan Road, and said: "Mayor, look, there is a group of Qinggang thugs gathering at the intersection of Sichuan Road, about 200 people. ”

"It's not you." The field of vision of the high-powered telescope in front of Zhong Yi locked on the direction of the Outer Ferry Bridge, and said, "There are also Qinggang thugs in the direction of the Outer Ferry Bridge, and there are about 100 people. ”

An Zhenyuan's heart moved, and he immediately turned the high-powered telescope in a direction and aimed at the intersection of Jiujiang Road in the south.

Sure enough, at the intersection of Jiujiang Road and Bund Road, there were also green gang hooligans wearing black cloth jackets, and the number was at least 100.

At that moment, An Zhenyuan said: "Mayor, it seems that the Green Gang is going to move seriously this time." ”

"A rabble." Zhong Yi said disdainfully, "Even if you are real, what can you do to me?" ”

It is no wonder that Zhong Yi despises these thugs of the Green Gang, because they are really a group of rabble, and they are vulnerable.

During the Battle of Songhu, Du Yuesheng, at the request of Dai Li, summoned the disciples and grandchildren of the Green Gang to form a special team with tens of thousands of people.

The end result, however, was a big disappointment.

This Einsatzgruppen team, which has spent a lot of money and material resources to build, and has more than 10,000 people, has not even fought a real decent battle, and let the devils defeat it.

By the way, when Zhong Yi first crossed over, the Einsatzgruppen team he encountered in Jinshanwei was not the same thing as the Einsatzgruppen under the Qinggang Du Yuesheng.

An Zhenyuan didn't take the Green Gang thugs who were gathering from three directions in his eyes, they were just a group of hooligans, not to mention that their special operations team had a strong building as a fortification, even if there were no fortifications, pure field warfare, they could easily torture and kill thousands of Green Gang thugs with less than 200 special combat members.

An Zhenyuan's only worry is whether Zhong Yi can hold on to such a big move.

Don't look at Zhong Yi's identity as a Mi Guo now, but even a Mi Guo has to talk about the rules.

The so-called law is only effective for civilians, but if you undermine the stability of the concession and affect the business environment and public order of the public concession, the Ministry of Industry and Bureau of the concession will definitely not sit idly by and will intervene.

At that moment, An Zhen was far from worried: "Mayor, we won't have a problem if we make such a big move, right?" ”

Zhong Yi continued to observe the movement in the direction of the outer ferry bridge through the long high-powered telescope, but asked again: "Xiao Anzi, what are you worried about?" ”

An Zhenyuan said: "I'm worried that Sassoon and the Ministry of Industry of the Concession will intervene and force us to release Huang Jinrong." ”

"Don't worry, it won't." Zhong Yi smiled and said, "Xiao Anzi, if you think about it carefully, will Sassoon and the Ministry of Industry of the Concession really intervene?" ”

"Won't it?" An Zhen said from afar, "It's a big trouble, it's not good for the entire concession?" ”

"If it goes on for a long time, of course it's not good." Zhong Yi said, "But if it's just a short period of trouble, Sassoon or the Ministry of Industry of the Concession is actually happy to see it." ”

"That's just as well." After Zhong Yi's little push, An Zhenyuan also figured it out, "Although the existence of the Green Gang has helped the concession to a certain extent, at least they have filled the lowest power vacuum that the forces of the Ministry of Industry and Bureau cannot reach, making the entire concession more orderly and stable, but ......"

After a pause, he said: "But after all, the Green Gang is a force that is not under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Industry of the Concession, more often than not, they are a saboteur, rather than a maintainer of the existing order, and the existence of the Green Gang has encroached on a considerable part of the interests that originally belonged to the Ministry of Industry and Bureau of the Concession, and the two sides have a fundamental conflict of interests!" ”

In a word, the Ministry of Industry and the Green Gang, one is an official, the other is a bandit, one is in the light, and the other is in the dark.

Most of the time, both sides do their jobs and are safe and sound, but this does not mean that there are no contradictions between the two sides.

Since ancient times, it has been difficult for officials and bandits to be separated, and the officers and men have not exterminated the bandits, not because they do not want to, but because they do not have the ability.

Therefore, once the opportunity to exterminate the bandits arises, or if someone is willing to help them exterminate the bandits, the officers and men will never refuse.

Zhong Yi nodded happily and said: "Therefore, the Ministry of Industry and Sassoon of the Concession will not intervene, at least in the short term, they will never intervene, in a short period of time, they will only be happy to see it!" So during this time, you can do it with confidence, don't have any scruples, the green gang in Shanghai has been doing evil for nearly a hundred years, and it's time to put a stop to this unhealthy trend. ”

"Mayor, don't worry." An Zhenyuan straightened up from behind the telescope and said in a deep voice, "This time, our special operations brigade must have uprooted the Qing Gang in Shanghai!" ”

"Uprooting is not enough." Zhong Yi smiled slightly, and said, "The most important thing is interests!" You must squeeze all the oil and water of the Shanghai Youth Gang, you may not know that the big beach of Yinjiang is still waiting for the money. ”

"Understood!" An Zhenyuan smiled cruelly, "The humble position must squeeze all the bones of the Shanghai Youth Gang." ”

At this time, Zhong Yi saw through the vision of the telescope that the Green Gang thugs gathered in the direction of the ferry bridge outside had exceeded 500 people, and immediately turned back to An Zhenyuan and said, "I estimate that the Green Gang is about to start attacking, you can go." ”

"Yes, retire from your duties." An Zhen stood upright, saluted Zhong Yi and turned to leave.

Seeing An Zhenyuan's figure go away, Zhong Yi retracted his gaze and aimed his vision at the ferry bridge.

In fact, there is another sentence, Zhong Yi did not say it, this time, in the showdown with the Huang Jinrong forces, not only Sassoon and the Ministry of Industry of the Concession will not intervene, but even the Qing Gang forces of Ji Yunqing and Zhang Xiaolin will not be involved.

Because of the involvement of interests, Ji Yunqing and Zhang Xiaolin will definitely sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight.

And this gave Zhong Yi and the special operations team a chance to break through.
