Chapter 188 Shanghai, here I come!
Hearing that Chen Yan was planning to let Tang Rui go to Shanghai with him, Zhao Gang yelled like a cat with its fur standing on end:
"There are risks this time, how can you let Tang Rui go?"
How could there be no risk when the Eighth Route Army went to get production equipment?
Once the Japanese and the Kuomintang get wind of the news, let alone whether to send troops to intercept, even if they send a hundred or eighty assassins, it will be difficult for them to return.
Chen Yan never mentioned the risks of this operation, but everyone knew it.
Zhao Gang's sudden shout woke up Li Yunlong who was sleeping soundly.
Li Yunlong smacked his lips and said, "What's wrong? What's salty?"
"It's okay, Lao Li, you continue sleeping. Lao Zhao was confused and talking in his sleep just now."
“Oh…Huff…Huff…”
Chen Yan looked at Tang Rui and continued:
"Wife, this mission is quite risky and the specific circumstances are unpredictable. The reason I want to ask you is because you are a lesbian. If we pretend to be a couple, we can better cover this operation."
Zhao Gang frowned and said, "Even so, we can't let Comrade Tang Rui take this risk. After all, she is not one of ours yet."
"Yes, like Lao Zhao said, you can refuse."
Chen Yan looked at Tang Rui without any emotional fluctuations.
In contrast to Zhao Gang's anxiety, Tang Rui looked relaxed.
"Political Commissar Zhao, why do you still treat me as an outsider?
As the saying goes, if you marry a chicken, you follow the chicken; if you marry a dog, you follow the dog. If Chen Yan doesn't want me anymore in the future, you can help me deal with him."
Chen Yan looked at Tang Rui with satisfaction:
"How can my wife be an outsider? It's not good for you to sow discord like this, Old Zhao."
Zhao Gang: “…”
Am I not a human being?
There are really two kinds of people sleeping in the same bed.
Tang Rui said politely: "Political Commissar Zhao, you saved me before, and now I am still eating free meals in the army. This time, let me do something for the team."
Zhao Gang looked embarrassed: "But you have no combat experience..."
"If Chen Yan can't protect me, I will have no one else to rely on in my life."
At this moment, Chen Yan and Tang Rui looked at each other, their eyes full of little stars.
"My dear wife, don't worry, I will definitely protect you and love you!"
Zhao Gang: “!!!”
Damn it, TDM is feeding me dog food!
Chen Yan also gave Zhao Gang a look that said you are a little redundant.
Zhao Gang looked at the two people who were about to leave in shame.
Suddenly Tang Rui said: "Political Commissar Zhao, I also want to join the organization. Should I ask you for help with this matter?"
When these words were spoken, not only Zhao Gang, but even Chen Yan was surprised.
But he was more surprised. Chen Yan immediately boasted:
"Old Zhao, look at my wife's awareness. She has started to move closer to the organization in just a few days."
Seeing Chen Yan put his arm around Tang Rui's waist, Zhao Gang remained calm.
I'm single and I'm happy.
Show affection quickly and it will fade away quickly.
Damn it, I'd better leave.
Crit +
"Sister-in-law, you are of course welcome to join the organization, but the organization has procedures. Wait until you come back from Shanghai and we will go through the process."
"Thank you, Political Commissar Zhao."
At this time, Chen Yan was as happy as a child, holding Tang Rui and turning around twice.
"Wife, I love you so much."
Tang Rui smiled cunningly, "Hehe! Don't think I can't control you just because you run to Shanghai."
Chen Yan: “!!!”
Love is so dramatic!
Isn't it too early to pour the cold water on me? I won't be able to be happy for long.
Chen Yan smiled and said, "Wife, I wish you would take care of me.
Come on, I'll go have breakfast with you."
Chen Yan asked Zhao Gang to report to the headquarters the specific time of his departure for Shanghai.
He came to the operations room, where Li Yunlong, Li San, Rudy and 30 special forces members were checking their weapons.
Li San handed Chen Yan a Browning and said, "Commander, this time everyone will be equipped with a Browning pistol, 80 rounds of bullets and two melon grenades each."
Chen Yan tried the pistol and said, "Yes, it's OK. In addition, each person should bring a smoke bomb.
We can’t bring weapons with high firepower density this time, so when you get there, take your men to the black market to see if you can get some automatic weapons.”
"it is good".
everything's ready!
.......
When the time came, Chen Yan and his group dispersed, first rushing from Shanxi to Tianjin, and then taking a train to Shanghai.
On the afternoon of the fifth day, the train slowly pulled into Shanghai Station.
A young man with extraordinary temperament, wearing a top hat, a windbreaker, and a straight-ironed suit underneath, got off the train, praising a young and lively girl.
That’s right, these two are Chen Yan and Tang Rui.
The two walked out of the platform, and Tang Rui looked at this decadent foreign land with eyes full of novelty.
However, there was a hint of nervousness on Chen Yan's face. As they were walking, Chen Yan suddenly bent down to tie Tang Rui's shoelaces.
"My shoelaces are untied!"
"Shh! Don't talk."
Chen Yan's sudden action seemed to indicate that someone in the crowd behind him was also changing his actions.
"It seems that this Demon City is really in chaos."
Chen Yan stood up and touched Tang Rui's face: "It's okay, let's go."
When the two men walked to the square of the train station, Chen Yan inadvertently took off his top hat, and the two men stopped a rickshaw.
"The Ritz Hotel".
The rickshaw driver lowered his head and walked quickly through the crowd. He saw two men in black Zhongshan suits in the square in front of the station. They looked ordinary, but they exuded a military temperament.
The two nodded to each other and disappeared into the crowd in the square.
The Ritz Hotel, later known as the Pujiang Hotel, was built in the 26th year of Emperor Daoguang's reign in the Qing Dynasty. It was the first Western-style hotel in China and also the first modern hotel. Although it is not as famous as the Peace Hotel, it is definitely the choice of high-end people.
The room where Chen Yan lives costs 18 silver dollars a day.
After checking in, Tang Rui was packing her luggage while Chen Yan hid behind the window, observing the situation on the street.
At the same time, his fingers had been tapping the wall in a regular rhythm.
"What's wrong? I seem to be worried since you got off the bus."
Tang Rui came over and asked with concern.
“Nothing, we were targeted as soon as we got off the car, probably by spies.
But fortunately, I observed for half an hour and there should be nothing unusual on the street. It seems that the Japanese are checking personnel and they should not suspect us."
"Why do I feel that Shanghai is more chaotic than Taiyuan?"
"How can Taiyuan be compared with here? This is the extravagant Paris of the East. It is a huge gold mine that can never be exhausted, but underneath this gold mine are piles of corpses."
Chen Yan hugged Tang Rui and said gently:
"To be honest, I now regret not listening to Zhao Gang. I thought I could protect you perfectly, but this place is much more complicated than I thought."
