Chapter 208 Breaking into Tang Mansion at night!
The 37 years were a nightmare for the people of Shanghai. Those who should have run away and those who shouldn’t have run away all ran away, and the only ones left were the people at the bottom of society who endured this indelible pain.
This file clearly records the relevant incidents handled by the Shanghai Police Department in 37 years, which seems to have evoked Qiao Shuxin's memory.
On August 8, the Japanese Marine Corps, relying on the pre-set positions in Hongkou District, fired provocatively at the Chinese defenders from Tiantong'an Station to Yokohama Road on the Songhu Railway, and attacked along Baoshan Road under the cover of tanks. They were repelled by the Chinese defenders, and 13 patrolmen were indiscriminately shot and killed on the way.
On August 8, the Chinese army launched several counterattacks against the Japanese troops in Hongkou and Yangshupu. The two armies fought for positions repeatedly. Two days and nights later, the deputy commander-in-chief of the 17rd War Zone ordered the police department to send 3 troops for support.
On September 9, a police officer from the police station discovered a spy group in the city. During the fierce fight, he fired a warning shot, but all three were killed;
......
On October 10, part of the coastal garrison troops of the Chinese right-wing army were transferred to support the urban operations. They were caught off guard and their positions were lost one after another. The situation took a sharp turn for the worse. Part of the Japanese troops infiltrated into the city. The police brigade assisted in the resistance and 3 people were killed in the battle.
......
On November 11, the Japanese army completely occupied Shanghai. The police station mobilized all its police forces to maintain public order in the city. The Japanese army beat three police officers to death in the street.
The subsequent information is about the Japanese army's reorganization of the police station, including some matters of supporting local forces.
At this moment, Qiao Shu's eyes were red and bloodshot, as if he was crazy, but he gritted his teeth and didn't say a word.
He personally experienced what happened 37 years ago. He was already a senior police officer at that time, but he still feels heartbroken and miserable when he thinks back on it now.
Artillery fire and air raids were standard daily occurrences. All Shanghai residents were worried every day, hoping that the Nationalist government could reverse the situation, but in the end all they got was "Come on, I'm leaving first."
Qiao Shuxin rubbed his red and wet eyes and continued reading.
On December 12, the Japanese army rushed to the Shanghai Arsenal Custody Office. After receiving the alarm, the Laoximen Police Station dispatched two police officers to maintain order.
He turned the pages further and found no relevant information.
At this moment, he frowned and looked melancholy.
It is impossible to verify the whereabouts of the last batch of equipment left in the Shanghai Naval Factory, but it is likely that they were stolen by the Japanese.
He calmed down, relaxed his emotions, then picked up the last page of information, and repeatedly stared at the big words "Laoximen Police Station".
"Okay, let's leave it at that for today. It means the clues are not broken."
......
At ten o'clock in the evening, a group of people stood in the shadows on the street corner, staring at the Tang Mansion not far away, with the sparks from their cigarette butts flickering.
The house was brightly lit, but at ten o'clock, the lights in the middle room on the third floor went out on time.
Chen Yan put out the cigarette butt and crushed it on the ground with his foot.
"Let's do it. According to the pre-arranged division of labor, no one is allowed to use guns. We must fight quickly and decisively. If anyone scares a bird, run back to Shanxi."
Chen Yan's voice was low and his tone was calm, but the soldiers felt a chill.
Everyone is clear about Chen Yan's working style. Even though he may smile at you cheerfully at ordinary times, if he makes any mistake in business, there will be no good consequences.
Chen Yan watched as the 30 soldiers jumped into the yard in a few flashes. He clapped his hands and walked towards the gate of Tang Mansion with Li San in a swagger.
As soon as I arrived, the door opened slowly from the inside.
Chen Yan put his hands in his pockets, nodded to the people below, and walked into the house.
There were still sporadic fights in the yard, but Chen Yan didn't care, as the outcome was basically decided.
The door of the villa has been opened, and it seems that his men have already gone in to explore the way.
Chen Yan walked into the house leisurely. When he entered the door, his younger brother took his hat and coat and hung them on the hanger.
"How's the cleaning going in the house?"
“Commander, most of them have been dealt with, and the brothers are currently dealing with two that escaped.
By the way, Di Ge is sitting inside, not saying a word, and we don’t dare to ask.”
Chen Yan took a closer look at the young soldier beside him. He took note of the clear and concise words.
He walked in and saw Rudy sitting in the middle of the sofa in the living room on the first floor.
Chen Yan didn't know what to say. After all, it was a bit unreasonable to raid someone's house without even saying hello.
Instead, Rudy, who had a sad face, spoke first:
"Boss, it's not that serious. I don't care about my face if my house is raided."
Chen Yan was stunned for a moment, and said with some guilt:
"Brother, I had no choice. Our mission was so urgent and your elder sister was stubborn. I just wanted to scare her, not to hurt her.
Besides, I wouldn’t dare touch her, after all, she is the most famous lady in Shanghai.”
After hearing what Chen Yan said, Rudy felt a little more relieved.
"Forget it, my hands and the back of my hands are all flesh, I'd better just ignore it to save myself the trouble."
He took a sip of red wine and complained: "She's my sister, be polite."
"Where are the people?"
Rudy looked up and glanced at the room on the second floor. Chen Yan nodded knowingly and gave him a reassuring look.
Chen Yan walked up the stairs step by step, only to hear Rudy still complaining:
"You're a psychopath. You brought a bunch of people into my house in the middle of the night...
You little bastard, what are you doing standing at the door? Just tell the brothers to lock up the bodyguards. Arrest the cook, the maid, and the gardener as well. You have nothing better to do than to eat..."
Chen Yan stood in front of Tang Caiying's door, but did not push it open. Instead, he knocked politely.
“Boom...Boom...Boom.”
No one in the house answered.
“Boom...Boom...Boom.”
Chen Yan knocked on the door again, but still no one answered.
When he raised his hand to knock on the door again, a cold voice came from the room.
"Is there any need for a robber who breaks into someone else's house to pretend to be a gentleman?"
Chen Yan smiled bitterly, and after a moment, knocked on the door again.
At this time, Tang Caiying's white chest was heaving with anger, and she cursed in a low voice:
"What a polite bastard."
Then she shouted loudly, "Come in."
Chen Yan then pushed the door open and saw Tang Caiying with her back to him, staring out the window.
Tang Caiying was wearing a red silk nightgown, which highlighted her well-proportioned figure. The yellow light in the room made her white thighs look even sexier.
This kind of real-life movie-like visual impact shocked Chen Yan indescribably.
Chen Yan quickly pulled himself out of his emotions and slowly said:
"Sister, sorry to bother you."
Tang Caiying turned around slowly, hugged her shoulders with her hands, and the anger between her brows had not yet subsided. Although she was not wearing any makeup, her peerless beauty that was so beautiful that it made Chen Yan sigh.
Beautiful, so beautiful!
Although Tang Caiying was angry, she remained calm and composed.
This is a lady from a noble family, who remains calm even when faced with a catastrophe.
"You are so brave, what do you want to do?"
