Chapter 37: Door-to-door coercion
"Tang Cheng, I came to see you today as an intelligence analyst of the Second Intelligence Room of the Shanghai Station of the Military Command, and this is my ID." Xiao Yalan, who was still dressed as a student, had a frosty face, because Tang Cheng did not welcome their visit, so Xiao Yalan naturally had nothing to say to Tang Cheng.
"Just know that you have a problem" Tang Cheng, who was muttering to himself in his heart, carefully looked at the documents handed over by Xiao Yalan, the hard-covered documents with the blue sky and white sun flag logo on the cover made Tang Cheng a little rare, what is the position of an intelligence analyst, Tang Cheng really doesn't understand, but looking at the two tough men brought by Xiao Yalan, I think Xiao Yalan should not be a miscellaneous role in the military command. "So what does this have to do with me?" Tang Cheng looked at the documents in Xiao Yalanyang's hand.
Xiao Yalan didn't say much, but just showed the information about Tangcheng collected by the military commander, "The Japanese army's capture of Shanghai is a foregone conclusion, now it is only a matter of time, you have the experience of killing Japanese soldiers, once the Japanese army is fully stationed in Shanghai, people like you can only be guests in their military police prison." I heard that the Japanese military police have many methods to rectify people, and adults with special training can't carry it, and it is estimated that you will not be able to get out if you send it in. ”
Robert was right, the secret agency was so terrible that the military commander actually found out from the shell gun he used that he had fought with the Japanese army at the corner of the street. Tang Cheng, who was terrified, looked at the folder brought by Xiao Yalan, there were some things in the information that even Tang Cheng was about to forget, but he didn't expect the military commander to find out all of them. But fortunately, there was no such thing as the assassination of three Japanese in a sushi restaurant in Tang Cheng late at night, which means that the military commander is not omnipotent.
"What's wrong with fighting the Japanese army" What's wrong with killing Japanese soldiers? Didn't the chairman of the committee also say that everyone has the responsibility to defend the land during the War of Resistance? Am I indifferent to watching my compatriots die under the bayonets of the Japanese soldiers? Tang Cheng's series of rhetorical questions made Xiao Yalan very unconvinced. Although Tang Cheng killed five Japanese soldiers and may have actively fought on the previous Jiekou position, he came to visit today on behalf of the military commander's Shanghai station, and Tang Cheng's attitude was simply to look down on the military commander and their Shanghai station.
"That's right, everyone is responsible for defending the land during the Anti-Japanese War, and everyone is responsible, so our military command Shanghai Station invites you to join Tangcheng, because we need people like you who have actual combat experience and are familiar with Japanese." Trying his best to suppress the anger in his heart, Xiao Yalan, who represented the Shanghai Station of the Military Command, threw out an olive branch in a timely manner. The conditions at the beginning of the military command were quite good, not only gave Tang Cheng the identity of an intelligence analyst, but also prepared an apartment for Tang Cheng in the concession, in addition to which Tang Cheng could also get a lot of settling-in expenses.
"This is what we found from the corner of the street, and I think it should have belonged to you." Seeing that Tang Cheng was silent, Xiao Yalan planned to burn the fire more vigorously, and the M1911A1 pistol found from the street position was pushed by Xiao Yalan to Tang Cheng's hand, as well as three spare magazines full of bullets. "28 rounds of ammunition is our gift to you, as long as you join us, you don't need to find that Mao Wu to find a way to find a way to bullets in the future, we have enough bullets here."
The lost pistol made Tang Cheng's eyes shine more, this pistol was often wiped by Robert, Tang Cheng was as familiar with it as his own hand, so after Tang Cheng picked up this pistol, he could already be sure that this was the one he lost. "Then thank you," Tang Cheng finally showed a smile on his face, weighing the three spare magazines in his hand. Xiao Yalan's words mentioned Mao Wu, Tang Cheng is a person who values affection and righteousness, he knows that if he doesn't accept the bullets put on the table in Xiao Yalan's room, the military commander may embarrass Mao Wu, he doesn't want Mao Wu to have anything to do, so he can only take the bullets that Xiao Yalan brought.
Seeing that Tang Cheng accepted those bullets, Xiao Yalan thought that this was a good beginning, so he started a new round of lobbying, and the loss of the pistol reminded Tang Cheng of Robert, remembering Robert's love and care for himself, but now he and Robert are already separated by yin and yang, but Tang Cheng at this time is immersed in the memory of Robert, and these things that Xiao Yalan said are simply deaf.
"The surname is Tang, I'm talking to you, can you give a reaction?" Xiao Yalan's mouth was dry, but Tang Cheng still looked like he was going to die, and the anger that had been holding back in his heart made Xiao Yalan lose his mind and shouted. "Let me tell you, although the miscellaneous company you were fighting in the street crossing position has been completely wiped out, your name has been on their list. Our military commander is recruiting you in accordance with military orders, and if you don't agree, you are a deserter, just wait for military law to do it. ”
Xiao Yalan This is a threat above board, Tang Cheng was told about the disposal of deserters on the first day when the miscellaneous company woke up, and after catching the deserters, he would be put in prison or directly killed, this deserter was a felony. Tang Cheng squinted at the triumphant Xiao Yalan, muttering in his heart that he hadn't found out that this woman was so annoying before, and he actually liked her secretly, he was really blind.
However, Xiao Yalan's threat can only scare those newcomers on the battlefield, Tang Cheng is also a person who has experienced life and death, and he learned from Xie Bo that it is impossible for a temporary strong man like himself to be recorded in the list of active soldiers, so he believes that Xiao Yalan's crime of desertion is just a trick of the military commander, and the purpose is just to force himself to comply. "These things you brought are all you talking to yourself, and I didn't say that I did it, so you can't just say what you say, so is there still a royal law?"
Since Xiao Yalan brought people to the church, Tang Cheng has only opened his mouth a few times, and the rest of the time Xiao Yalan is talking to himself, and now he is actually using coercion, and Tang Cheng has no nostalgia for Xiao Yalan in his heart. Looking at Xiao Yalan's triumphant appearance, Tang Cheng quickly thought of countermeasures in his mind, since the military commander could find out his whereabouts this month clearly, he would definitely be able to find a way to deal with himself.
"The military commander can take a fancy to you, that's your luck, don't be ignorant." Seeing that he had grasped Tang Cheng, Xiao Yalan, who was full of momentum, was more like a gentleman who was forcing Liang to become a prostitute at the moment, if she was matched with a pair of squinting eyes, she would be a wicked young man who came to the door.
"That's your military commander's business, not mine." A brand-new American passport was slowly pushed over by Tang Cheng, Xiao Yalan raised his eyes to meet Tang Cheng's smiling eyes, "I am an American citizen, and I didn't say that I fought with the Japanese army at any street corner, if your military commander is willing to be a traitor, you can tell the Japanese about my killing of 5 Japanese soldiers." I'm a U.S. citizen, and I'm not subject to your Nationalist government's recruitment restrictions, so I don't have much interest in your military command. ”
The U.S. passport is not a panacea, but it is the most suitable to deal with Xiao Yalan, and this is also the way Tang Cheng thought of dealing with it after returning from Xie Bo. Looking at the American passport that Tang Cheng took out, Xiao Yalan's face twitched with anger, in order to refuse the solicitation of the military commander, Tang Cheng actually took out the American passport that Robert handled for him and said yes, could it be that he really thought that he and those yellow-haired and blue-eyed Americans were the same ancestor.
Xiao Yalan, who came to the door domineeringly, left, but the two men who came with her were guarding outside the church, and Tang Cheng, who refused to be recruited by the military commander, became an ant on a hot pot at the moment. Showing the passport was just Tang Cheng's expedient measure, since the military commander had spent so much effort to probe his own affairs, he would never let himself go easily, so after sending Xiao Yalan away, Tang Cheng locked himself in the room and pondered countermeasures.
The pistols sent by Xiao Yalan were spread out at the bedside of Tang Cheng, as well as the fast and slow machine presented by Xie Bo and the Red9 barge gun that Tang Cheng turned over from the Japanese officer, Tang Cheng now has three pistols and nearly 100 rounds of ammunition, if it had been placed a month ago, maybe Tang Cheng would have taken them to kill the Japanese a long time ago, but now Tang Cheng is eager to deal with it is the solicitation of the military commander. "Maybe it's a good choice to go to Liu Goat's Second Company, at least it's better to be with someone you know than a military commander." Looking at the three pistols at the head of the bed, Tang Cheng muttered to himself.
Refusing the military commander's solicitation means that he can no longer live in the church in peace, or those guys will come to the door from time to time, he has no intention of going to the United States at all, the money left by Robert has been almost spent in Tang City, and the new priest allows him to live in the church is already very good, it is impossible to support himself in vain, he has to find a way to eat.
But if he really entered the army of the national army, Tang Cheng was afraid that he would not be able to endure hardship, and listened to the things said by those veterans in the hospital, and if he entered the army like this, he would play the role of cannon fodder. Officers like Xie Bo were injured like that, and they were still lying miserably in the Chase room without anyone to take care of them, what else could they think as a senior soldier, Tang Cheng, who was thinking about it, immediately dispelled the idea of joining the army.
Anyway, I had to leave the church first, but there were people guarding outside the church, and Tang Cheng's ghost took out the note that was stuffed into him by the mill. There was only one phone number on the note, and in the words that Nian Zi told him when he left, as long as Tang Cheng dialed the phone number and reported Xie Bo's name, someone from their second company would come to the church to pick up Tang Cheng and take him to the hospital.
Tang Cheng, who had made up his mind, dialed the number with the church's phone, and there was only a calm voice on the other end of the phone saying that he had learned the truth, and that Tang Cheng would stay in the church and wait, and then someone from the second company would come to pick up Tang Cheng to meet at the hospital where Xie Bo was treated. Tang Cheng was a little skeptical, but he still packed his things according to his own ideas, and then sat quietly in the church by himself, waiting for someone to come to pick him up.
