The Family and the Country Chapter 33 Valkyrie 2
Cai Yuanpei sat alone in the lounge of the representative of the Inspectorate of Doubts. Earlier, he had never worked here, and this night, except for the beginning of a few hours at Xu Guantian's house, he spent most of the time here.
In order to take over the capital as soon as possible, killing people is a must. He knew very well that if he didn't cooperate with Qi Qingyuan, then Yang Rui would probably not die. Of course, even if he agreed to cooperate with Qi Qingyuan, Yang Rui would be secretly protected by Qi Qingyuan as a bargaining chip with him. In terms of facts, corrupt officials are actually people who live with others, and as long as they are not forced too hard, they will never take risks.
Thinking that Yang Rui made everything like this by being clever, Cai Yuanpei wanted to laugh from the bottom of his bones. Since ancient times, corruption has been inexhaustible, isn't it all the malaise of changing the land and returning to the stream? The officials helped the imperial court suppress and fool the people, and that little salary was enough? Thinking about Zhu Yuanzhang's barbaric skinning and filling of grass, but what was the result? 'Have the right not to use, expire and invalid', 'don't take it for nothing', who doesn't want to get a few handfuls of him in office, otherwise what chance will there be after stepping down, who still knows you? Not to mention for their own enjoyment, it is to take into account that their children and grandchildren will join the eunuchs, and it will definitely not work if there is no money. The most realistic, if you don't have money, can you put down your efforts to take the civil service exam? Can you give a gift to Shangguan?
From Qi Qingyuan's refusal to kill Yang Rui, to the endless corruption under the official system, and then to his feat tonight - which can be regarded as the beginning of the republic, Cai Yuanpei is also drunk. But he just began to get intoxicated, and the one who poured cold water came.
"Are you crazy?! Do you know what you're doing? Wanton trampling on the Constitution! Massacre for no reason! You... I will go to hell in the future! In the middle of the night, the patrol police suddenly broke into the house, but Yu Zixun, who was taken to the Detective Academy, pointed at Cai Yuanpei and scolded as soon as he entered the lounge.
Yu Zixun's appearance was angry and ruined, and his clothes were untidy, and when he was escorted by the patrol police, he thought that Yang Rui's people were in power. But now it is found that Cai Yuanpei is in the center. In the past, he always advocated democracy and freedom, but tonight he has become a man-eating demon. This transition is just too abrupt.
"Let's get out." Cai Yuanpei said politely to the secretary, then stood up and smiled at Yu Zixun: "Zixun." If we really want to realize a democratic republic, it is not the key to succeeding or dying, but the key is ...... It is to show the ills of the authoritarian system of the Renaissance Society. You see," he patted himself on the chest suddenly, "I'm not a representative of the Inspectorate, I'm not a government official, constitutionally speaking, I'm just a grass citizen; And the people who were killed tonight were up to the lieutenant general. Down to the clerks, not to mention those guards and agents, even a female streamer can easily shoot me to death. But now I sit here in peace, and they are being killed and killed like wood, all because of tyrannibalism!
That democratic centralism, what kind of democratic centralization, centralization of democracy, haha......" Speaking of this, Cai Yuanpei suddenly laughed hysterically, and then said: "Bullshit! Bullshit! It's all bullshit!! This is in the name of democracy, in the name of manipulating the majority of puppets. Unashamed to implement dictatorship! Look at the ...... of those deputies of the Inspectorate of Doubts, Zixun, you must know that this person was not killed by me on my orders, this is the unanimous opinion of the deputies of the Standing Committee, the Politburo, and the Inspectorate Yuan. I almost got down on my knees with them. I said, you can't kill, you can't kill. You can't kill people, say important things three times. But they just don't listen, they want to kill. Hey......"
Cai Yuanpei's face was distorted, and he was extremely happy to vent these, and there seemed to be a strange heat current in his heart that was stirring, rolling, and stimulating his already twisted nerves, he suddenly stretched out his hand extremely hard, and then waved it down with all his strength, and then said: "This system, this kind of political party is to be destroyed!" Total destruction! Utter destruction!! These murderous things without blinking an eye are all going to hell!! And I just want to show the most evil side of this system, and show it completely and vividly. I'm going to make the whole world shudder after dawn! I want the whole world to know that I can kill so many people in just one night, and then they can kill more people for a longer time......"
A beautiful poem always has to be appreciated, this time to invite Yu Zixun to come, Cai Yuanpei's original intention is to Yu Zixun to appreciate. However, Yu Zixun had no sense of appreciation, he just closed his eyes and prayed, praying to God.
"Zixun!" Cai Yuanpei, who had been in a state of excitement all night, suddenly rushed over, grabbed Yu Zixun's collar with both hands and shouted: "Don't we want democracy? Isn't it freedom? I am the stepping stone of democracy, I am the forerunner of freedom, I am willing to go to hell, I am willing to be crushed to pieces, as long as it awakens the people to the terrible ...... of dictatorship"
Yu Zixun was completely silent, he couldn't hear a single word Cai Yuanpei said, only Cai Yuanpei's voice became smaller and smaller, until he was completely silent, he spoke - as if preaching, he sang extremely sadly: "...... They have come to you in sheep's clothing, but inside they are savage wolves. You will know them by their fruits: how can you pluck grapes from among thorns? How can you pick figs in tribulus terrestris? ……
Not everyone who says, 'Lord, Lord,' can enter the kingdom of heaven, but only those who do the will of my Father who is in heaven.
Many will say to me in that day, 'Lord, Lord!' Have we not preached in your name, cast out demons in your name, and performed many miracles in your name? ’
But I will declare to them, 'I never knew you; Depart from me, you evildoers! ’”
After Yu Zixun finished preaching, he turned around and staggered away, but Cai Yuanpei listened to his last sentence, stunned like a wooden chicken. It wasn't until the secretary called him in a low voice that he suddenly came back to his senses, "Let him go!" Locked up with those people. He said.
"Sir, this is ......" Xu Baohuang didn't quite understand what Cai Yuanpei meant, but finally nodded, but he said again: "Sir, the American ambassador is about to arrive, and then there will be a press conference, do you want to rest for a while?" ”
"Not necessarily!" Cai Yuanpei waved his hand unconsciously-he was used to using exaggerated gestures to express his wishes, which he was not used to at first, but he couldn't get rid of the habit, "You can get some hot water, I'll apply a compress to my face, and then I'll find me something to eat." At this point, he once again remembered an extremely important matter, and said, "Which file has not been found?" ”
"Found it! Mr. Xu Baohuang knew that he was talking about the file. It's more worthy of its value, and he immediately nodded heavily.
"Give it to me right away!" Cai Yuanpei said eagerly. For a while. A broken lead seal clip was sent over, thick on top of the dossier. Covered with the words 'top secret' and declassified time: '100 years', he smiled at the corner of his mouth, and when he opened the title page, he saw a photo of Yang Rui twenty years ago, but the name was another person's, Hu Guizhong.
"What else did you find? Especially on the side of the Intelligence Bureau? Grabbing this dossier is grasping victory, Cai Yuanpei asked other questions when he was feeling well.
"The vault hasn't been opened yet!" Xu Baohuang said, "The password there is only known to the director Zhang Shi and the deputy director, but Zhang Shi went to Tonghua, and the deputy director ......." No password once forcibly opened. The vault will self-destruct. ”
Most of the security bureaus are domestic secrets, but except for the secret file in front of them, for Cai Yuanpei, who is a member of the Standing Committee, it is not a secret at all. The real secret is in the Intelligence Bureau, once he finds conclusive evidence that the Baath Army is secretly helping the Allies in the European War, then he will not only be able to thoroughly grasp the situation, but also befriend the United States and other international countries, and eventually gain their support.
"Then why didn't the deputy director confess? Isn't he afraid of being shot? Hearing that the deputy director knew that the password would not be explained, Cai Yuanpei was immediately displeased.
"Sir. The deputy director has ...... Already shot by a firing squad! Xu Baohuang said.
"Oh......" I didn't expect this to be the case, Cai Yuanpei muttered, and suddenly felt that this night of killing people was indeed too urgent.
A minimum of 10 percent of the shots per sector is the minimum requirement. Like the National Security Bureau, the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and the Janissary Command. In these places, as long as they are not wearing green robes or below the rank of lieutenant, almost all of them are shot. This kind of killing is the most popular, because the head of the department and the middle-level officials are gone. Those petty officials who do miscellaneous work will be able to rise to prominence in the future, but this is also a good example set by the purge of the National Security Bureau - a pregnant female section chief actually reported the director and deputy director in a panic. Cai Yuanpei immediately appointed her as deputy director and temporarily acting director.
In this case, killing people is not only rapid. And it is justifiable, but the consequence is that the dead man has not fully accounted for everything, and the password of the intelligence bureau is only one of them, and another important thing is happening:
In the chaotic Shuncheonfu communication office, a wireless radio receiver that had been on and had never been turned off suddenly came into operation, and the telegraph bell jingled, and the dotted telegraph fingers spit out from the machine. A code that the receiver had never seen before, was carved on it. On the night of the killing, he did not dare to make his own decisions, and only after the call was over did he reduce the telegram and paste it on the translated telegram, and then report to the section chief.
The former section chief had already been shot, and at this time it was only the previous translator who took over as section chief, and he could only read the beginning - from: the Prime Minister's Special Office; Sent to: Governor of Suncheonfu. The message that follows is completely incomprehensible.
Today's everything is because the prime minister was brutally murdered by the Kuomintang Party, but at this time, a telegram was sent from the prime minister's special office, and the chief of the telecommunications section, who did not know the situation at the top, immediately jumped up and went to make a phone call -- he has made meritorious contributions to the organization again!
kept calling the Inspectorate from important departments, and Cai Yuanpei, who had listened to all the reports, was suspicious: "The Prime Minister's Special Office, where did it come from?" Didn't we cut off the telegraph from Kansai? What exactly is Ciphertext? ”
"It shouldn't be from outside the country." Xu Baohuang said, "As for the content, the Praetorian Guard has translated all the messages, and they are asked to check the secret code, open the zero secret file and carry out the above order, and the violator will be punished for treason." ”
"What do you mean?!" For some reason, Cai Yuanpei suddenly thought of the uneasiness and helplessness when he took over the military system established by Yang Rui before the uprising in Hangzhou, it was like a thief, breaking into a rich man's house and not knowing which was east and west.
"This is," Xu Baohuang fortunately asked a few more words just now, otherwise he really couldn't answer, he said: "This is a pre-written order, only open when necessary, and the key to open it is a meaningless cipher code, the receiving party by checking their own cipher code, if it is completely correct, you have to open the safe and take out the corresponding secret file, and then execute the command on the secret file......"
Hearing this, Cai Yuanpei suddenly said, "This means that he escaped?" No, it should be Qi Qingyuan who allowed him to issue orders to the outside world, so ......," Cai Yuanpei suddenly stood up, "This means that they have become a gang!" ”
"It's possible!" Xu Baohuang wiped a handful of sweat, he actually didn't agree with Zhang Huanrong and others being shot, but Mr. He insisted on going his own way. So that Tonghua was reconciled. "Sir, we should have prepared early."
"I've been prepared for a long time!" Cai Yuanpei's hand slapped on the previous file. "Immediately sent a telegram to the whole country, emphasizing once again that the prime minister was tortured and killed by the Kuomintang party. As a result, the code book of the Prime Minister's Guard was seized by the Nationalist Party. Now they have also found a stand-in for the prime minister during the revolution and issued a false decree in the name of the prime minister. Once a false order is received, it will be destroyed immediately! In addition, when the telecommunications network in the northeast is connected, the message must also be sent to them. Finally, it is important to stress that once the local organization organs discover Cao Guizhong, a stand-in who resembles the prime minister but acts as a tiger, they can be killed without reporting it. ”
"Got it!" Xu Baohuang held a pencil in his right hand and a telegram clip in his left hand, and quickly drafted a telegram according to Cai Yuanpei's instructions. After finishing the matter, he asked, "Sir." Was this telegram also sent in plain code? ”
"Yes. You remember to write the reward," Cai Yuanpei suddenly laughed, "It can't be too much, too much everyone doesn't believe it, so it's set at 100,000 Chinese yuan." Cheng Cheng once said that a lie is told a thousand times and it becomes the truth. You immediately notify the major newspapers and ask them to publish the obituary of the prime minister's murder by the Kuomintang in addition to the obituary, and also publish this file called Cao Guizhong, and repeatedly mention this matter on the radio. We have to say it over and over again, all the time, everywhere. Only in this way can the conspiracy of the quintessential traitor to the party be exposed. ”
The leader's will has always been wise, Xu Baohuang agreed and hurriedly went to do it, it was almost half past three, and the major hard brush factories were probably already printing today's morning paper.
Half past three. When Xu Baohuang hurriedly called the major newspapers, Major Fu Zuoyi, the commander of the assault battalion who had finally arrived in the sky above Tonghua, finally breathed a sigh of relief. Before, the group almost got lost, and regarded the old city of Tonghua as a new city. And the soldiers who had been ordered by the parachutist to 'stand and hook' ten minutes earlier were already impatient. Although I have experienced many parachute jumps, this is the first time to practice. And it's still facing your own people.
When they learned that the mission was to parachute into Tonghua and rescue the prime minister from the hands of the 1st Army, everyone was going crazy! This is an era of incomparable glory for soldiers! It is a country where no matter whether you are poor or poor, you can grant a fief! Fu Zuoyi, who understood the role of paratroopers, fantasized about capturing Russia's Li Ning, the US president, and the British prime minister. But he never thought that his first mission was to rescue his beloved prime minister, his own people, and kill his own people. But the reality is so absurd that Lieutenant General Wu Xifen personally announced the order, believing that the 1st Army had defected under the instigation of General Qi Qingyuan, and the prime minister was imprisoned by him because he went to Tonghua for a meeting. The task of the assault battalion is to rescue the prime minister at all costs......
"See the rescue signal, prepare in three minutes!" In the red-lit cabin, the voice of the parachutist was mixed with the sound of the plane engine, and they hit Fu Zuoyi's eardrums, but none of these were as irritating to his nerves as the explosion of anti-aircraft artillery shells outside -- under the supervision of the General Staff Headquarters, all armies paid great attention to air defense, and it must have been the previous hovering over the old city of Tonghua that alerted the ground troops. I hope they didn't expect someone to jump off the plane, Fu Zuoyi suddenly thought.
"Sir, it's time to jump!" At the same time as the parachutist shouted, the red light in the cabin suddenly turned green, and the staff officers and adjutant who were on the same plane as Fu Zuoyi all approached the cabin door, and a staff officer close to the cabin door had already jumped down, and was immediately swept away by the wind.
"Jump!" Fu Zuoyi called himself a sentence, and also jumped down from the hatch, before hanging on the steel rope in the cabin on the tension rope immediately pulled the main umbrella behind him to the top of the top of the umbrella flying, and the rear umbrella top of the towing rope pulled the umbrella from the backpack, when he was still floating in the air in full armor, the anti-air flow caused by the rapid descent made the parachute immediately unfold, the nylon umbrella with a width of 8.5 meters through the harness to pull his chest and ribs, after a short violent shock, he was hung up by the parachute, leisurely.
It was the most comfortable time to parachute, and if it was daytime, he could not only admire the white clouds, but also control the ropes and birds to take off, but it was the darkest moment before dawn, and the anti-aircraft guns on the ground were roaring, and not far from him, a hapless transport plane caught fire and began to fall, while more shells blew up clouds of smoke in the air; As for the anti-aircraft machine guns, tracer bullets make their trajectories unusually conspicuous, one by one like sharp spears thrown from the ground. Fortunately, there are not many of them, and the darkness makes it difficult for them to target the sky full of planes and umbrella flowers.
In order to reduce the raging artillery fire on the ground, the altitude of the parachute was set at the lowest limit of 150 meters, and it did not take a few seconds to land after the parachute was opened. The same is true of Fu Zuoyi now, less than ten seconds after opening the umbrella and trembling, the leg strap he tied to his leg smashed something hard and brittle, and then himself, with a '......bang', his whole body smashed firmly on the roof tiles. However, the average of the whole battalion exceeded 30 kilograms, which in turn forced the transport plane to reduce the load of fuel, and also made the old eaves unable to support it, and he fell down with a '......bang' again.
Quickly cut the rope, grabbed the submachine gun, and stood up to turn on the flashlight on his shoulder, Fu Zuoyi saw a pair of trembling men and women shrinking on the bed in the corner, and he had to explain: "The tax police are on duty!" Where's the door? How do I get to Dragon Gate Inn? ”
In the middle of the night, there was a sudden burst of gunfire, and a tax policeman with a gun smashed open the roof of the house and jumped into his house in the middle of the night, this kind of thing could not be imagined even in a dream. Seeing that the other party was stunned, when Fu Zuoyi wanted to find his way, the man suddenly jumped up, opened the door, and then pointed to the east and muttered. At this time, there was gunfire outside, and Xie Fu Zuoyi, who didn't have Xie Fu, immediately rushed out.
"Battalion commander!" As soon as he went out, some soldiers saw him, and it was still dark when he jumped out of the plane, but as soon as he jumped down, it was dawn.
"How many of you? Follow me! Fu Zuoyi shouted, and the trigger that had been tightly tightened before was loosened at this time.
"Four, no, six! Yes, battalion commander. The soldier shouted, and with a wave of his hand, four soldiers who had cut the parachute line and arranged their weapons immediately surrounded him, and the other two soldiers were unloading the 60 mortars they were carrying.
"Quick! Fast! Come on! Time was pressing, and after a short shot knocked down a soldier of the 1st Army who rushed over without cover, Fu Zuoyi didn't care about them, and rushed forward with only the people around him. He now urgently needs to find a high ground and then fire flares to establish effective command.
The whole city of Tonghua was filled with the sound of gunfire, previously anti-aircraft guns and anti-aircraft machine guns, and now submachine guns and grenades. Major General Wang Xiaozhen, commander of the 1st Division at the Red Clay Cliff Headquarters, could not understand what was going on, and he had received a call from the commander of the corps, Qi Qingyuan, ten minutes earlier, who had ordered him to be extremely vigilant against the Sixth Army's southward movement and to hold on to the direction of the Liuhe River to the death.
His division was on guard in the direction of the Liuhe River in the north, but after hanging up the phone, the division headquarters received an urgent message from the Prime Minister's Special Office, and after checking the secret code according to the procedure, it opened the confidential safe and opened the sealed zero secret file. At the same time, the execution of all orders of the General Staff Headquarters, the Group Army Headquarters, and the Army Command was suspended, and the command of the troops was temporarily taken over by the Special Office of the Prime Minister......
The order for the confidential safe was set up beforehand, which means that it was a plan planned in advance by the General Staff to prevent a rebellion. As a major general of the Renaissance Army, Wang Xiaozhen did not disagree with the reasoning of the General Staff and the premier. Just as he was sending a telegram to the Prime Minister's Special Office confirming the order, something happened on the side of Tonghua, and a lieutenant colonel in the city called to report that a large group of planes had come from the south, and about a battalion of soldiers had jumped from the planes, with the intention of occupying Tonghua.
Since the rebellion ordered the ministries to suspend all offensive battles, it must be the rebels who are attacking Tonghua this time, because the troops obeying the orders of the Prime Minister's Special Office will only be on alert and will not attack. It's just, what kind of troops jumped out of the plane? And to which army? Will the troops in the city be able to protect the Prime Minister? How much time do you have left?
"Division commander, there are only the guard battalions in Tonghua City that were transferred before, and many of them are still deployed outside the city, we should reinforce them immediately." The chief of staff reminded on the side, "The Prime Minister and all the Lord Shangshu can stay at the Dragon Gate Inn!" ”
"Reinforcements!" Wang Xiaozhen couldn't help but scold, "These soldiers who jumped down must have killed the prime minister!" But we're sixty kilometers from Tonghua......" he punched himself hard and shouted, "Get me the armored battalion right away!" (To be continued.) )
