A small group of Japanese troops and dozens of Imperial Allied troops were almost killed and wounded, and the railroad that needed to be repaired was not completed on time, and when the Japanese army in Baoding, which received the news, sent troops to the place of the incident again, they found that the defective section of the railroad that had been blown up had expanded from more than 30 meters to nearly 100 meters. Lu Yuan, the initiator, had already left Xiaozhangzhuang at this moment, and after collecting the weapons and ammunition left by the Japanese puppet army, Lu Yuan used * to destroy the railway twice, and then left here and ran all the way east to Cangzhou.

After passing through Cangzhou and then going north to Tianjin, Lu Yuan planned to return to Shanghai by sea, and it had been more than half a month since he left Shanghai, and Lu Yuan suddenly missed the little cake baked by the cook at home. Lu Yuan adhered to his consistent style of killing and buriing, for him, the matter here in Baoding is over, and the most important thing now is to return to Shanghai safely. It's still the contact point last time, it's still the same contact person, Lu Yuan, who hurried back to Tianjin, took the street code provided by Xu Huanshan to contact the Tianjin underground party, and without too much conversation, Lu Yuan just handed over an address to the other party.

"Follow the mark I left to find it, there are enough weapons and ammunition for you to equip an infantry company, and I have also equipped you with some medicine, although the amount is not much, but it can be regarded as a little bit of my heart." The address that Lu Yuan handed over to the Tianjin underground party liaison was outside the city, and a few days later, after the Tianjin underground party found the place where Lu Yuan hid his gun, he couldn't help but secretly scold Lu Yuan in his heart for messing around, because Lu Yuan just buried this batch of arms on the side of the road at will.

Helping the Eighth Route Army intercept a piece of Japanese munitions, and also sending weapons and ammunition to the Tianjin underground party that can equip an infantry company, the purpose of Lu Yuan's trip has been basically achieved, and after two days of repairs in Tianjin, Lu Yuan, who has nothing to do, boarded the ship and left Tianjin. The journey at sea was lonely, but Lu Yuan spent all his time sleeping, and when the ship docked at the Shanghai dock, Lu Yuan was still asleep in his cabin.

"Hogg, you're back like this? Did Schuchmann come back with you? Everyone else is okay? Is Aunt Fu Bofu okay? Outside the dock, a driver sent by Hans drove to pick him up, but after Lu Yuan got into the car, he found that Hogg, who had been separated for more than 3 months, was sitting beside him. Seeing Hogg, the joy in Lu Yuan's heart couldn't be controlled, and he immediately asked Hogg a series of questions, as for Hogg, he didn't know which question he should answer first.

"Well, we're good, everybody is good. Schuchmann didn't come back this time, and there were some things that needed to be dealt with over there, so I was the only one who came back this time. Seeing Lu Yuan, Hogg was obviously very happy, but because there was a driver in the car, there were some things that Hogg couldn't say now. Although Hogg covered it up well, Lu Yuan still saw the flaw, and the two glanced at each other very vaguely, and Lu Yuan immediately beckoned the driver to take him to the coffee shop he frequented in the Public Concession first.

"Alright, now that there are no outsiders, you can tell the story and see if I can help." asked the driver to send his luggage home first, and Lu Yuan took Hogg to sit down in the coffee shop. Hogg didn't want to hide it from Lu Yuan, so in the coffee shop, he told Lu Yuan the main purpose of his visit to Shanghai this time. Lu Yuan grinned after hearing this, "This is a good thing, the Chinese say that this is called accumulating good deeds, since you said that the investigation in Macau is not strict, when you leave, I will give you some things, enough for you to settle those children." ”

Hogg suddenly returned to Shanghai, mainly for a dozen Jewish orphans living in Shanghai, and seeing that Lu Yuan made it clear that he would support him in doing this, Hogg, who was facing financial difficulties, couldn't help but feel relieved. "Alright, you go about your own business, I'll go to Hans's pub and talk about something. If you can't find a suitable place, you can send those children to your home for a while, just to tell them that I can't go to my study and basement. When they were about to part, Lu Yuan took out two gold bars and handed them to Hogg, which were counted as Hogg's upfront expenses.

After separating from Hogg, Lu Yuan called a rickshaw to go to Hans's bar, and when he entered the bar, Lu Yuan suddenly found that there seemed to be a lot more Germans in Hans's bar. "They all came to me to inquire about the news, and it seems that the thing you told me before is about to come true." After greeting Lu Yuan, Hans took Lu Yuan to the back office, and Lu Yuan had just sat down when Hans handed Lu Yuan an English newspaper to Lu Yuan.

"See for yourself, this is the English Times I just received, and I have the French edition of the Gallic Times here. The current situation in Europe is already like sitting on a bucket, and as long as there is a little spark, this bucket will explode with a bang, and it will be a big explosion. Throwing a few newspapers to Lu Yuan, Hans, who had a bad face, poured himself a glass of wine, tilted his head, and poured the whole glass of wine into his mouth.

Lu Yuan had already told Hans that in the middle of the first 39 years of the German Führer, a new round of military expansion would be carried out. Especially after the First World War, those European countries that deliberately targeted Germany will not end well this time. Now it seems that Lu Yuan's judgment is not bad at all, because many European newspapers have called the German Führer Hitler a madman, and many so-called experts have declared in the newspapers that the Germans are going to launch a new war in Europe.

Lu Yuan flipped through the newspapers in his hand, Hans, who was alone on the sofa, had already drunk several glasses of wine, and after taking out a cigarette and lighting it for a few puffs, Lu Yuan finally smiled. "What's so frustrating about this, since you remember that I told you so a long time ago, then you shouldn't show any gains and losses now. I see you, it's just idle, it just so happens that Hogg has something to do when he returns to Shanghai, so I'll just let him come to you, he may need some help. ”

After Hogg returned to Shanghai and found that Lu Yuan was far away, the first person to contact was Hans, how could Hans not know what Hogg was returning to Shanghai for. Hans did not express his impatience with Lu Yuan's suggestion at this moment, but just nodded lightly and agreed. "Lu, do you know what I mean? Hogg's matter, I will naturally send someone to help him, I want to say that if Germany really starts a war, my men and many Germans in Shanghai will return to Germany to fulfill their civic duties, but what should I do? I'm also German. ”

Hans's distress at the moment revealed his true purpose, although Hans had always worked for German intelligence, but Hans hated war from the bottom of his heart, because Hans, who had personally experienced the First World War, knew the cruelty of war. It was only as soon as the German government's conscription order was issued, and many Germans abroad would return to the country to respond to the government's call, and the reason why so many Germans suddenly appeared in Hans's bar was to discuss the matter.

On the one hand, Hans hated the war, but on the other hand, he was proud of being a German, and if Hitler's government issued a conscription order, Hans deserted and went to Macao to live in seclusion when other overseas Germans were actively returning to China to recruit accordingly. "Hans, you are a veteran of the First World War, and you should know what war is all about. No amount of what I say will make a difference, and you will need to pay attention to the specific decision, but I still have to say that you are almost old enough to be my grandfather. ”

Lu Yuan's last sentence made Hans, who was originally distressed, cry and laugh, but thinking about it carefully, Lu Yuan seems to be right, his age has indeed passed the conditions for recruitment, even if he responds to the call to return to Germany, I am afraid that the army will not leave himself as an old man. "Think about it, Hans, you are too old, and the war probably has nothing to do with you. If you want to do something for Germany, you might as well buy more supplies from Asia and send them back to Germany, because your Führer has always said that Germany is a resource-poor country. ”

Lu Yuan knew that Hans was a bold guy, and originally Lu Yuan wanted to persuade Hans to hide in Macau to avoid the war, but he suddenly had a better idea. "Hans, I suddenly have something to attend to, and if you have time tonight, go to where I live. Perhaps I can give you a better idea that will make you worthy of your German national identity, and perhaps save you from the war. ”

Lu Yuan's words were a bit cloudy, and Hans was suspicious all afternoon, and after Lu Yuan left, Hans pondered for a long time, but he couldn't guess what Lu Yuan's words meant. Hans pondered for a long time, and Lu Yuanque, who left the bar, went to see Xu Huanshan again, and handed over a few pistols that had been prepared to Xu Huanshan, and Lu Yuan also sent Xu Huanshan a bigger surprise.

Along with the suitcase containing the pistol, Xu Huanshan was handed over to Xu Huanshan with a key to the hotel, Xu Huanshan looked up at Lu Yuan in confusion, but the latter shrugged his shoulders and said. "I got a lot of good things from intercepting the Japanese arms train this time, and in addition to these pistols and bullets, I also got you back a few Japanese military radios. It is said that the Japanese army's military radio station is small in size and has a strong signal, but I don't know if you can use Japanese radio, after all, it is all in Japanese characters. ”

Radio stations and weapons have always been something that the Shanghai underground party urgently needs, and during the time that Lu Yuan left Shanghai, there was no rival Japanese intelligence agency and No. 76 revival, and he repeatedly encircled, suppressed, and arrested the Shanghai underground party. The Shanghai underground party not only lost a large number of manpower, but also lost a number of radio stations along the way, and these radio stations sent by Lu Yuan at this moment really solved the urgent needs of the Shanghai underground party and made Xu Huanshan overjoyed.
