Chapter 219 Promoted to Colonel

Chapter 219 Promoted to Colonel
Peiyang University.

Li Ya parked his car in the back alley, and immediately a clerk wearing a student hat and looking very young quietly walked over and said, "Captain."

"Yucheng, is he here?" Li Ya asked.

“It’s his girlfriend’s birthday today, so he might have to wait a little.

"This guy is very popular in school because of his pretty face. He dated several girls from wealthy families."

The clerk said with a hint of sourness.

“When dating a young lady, you can’t just rely on your looks.

“You have to be knowledgeable and tasteful.

"There must be more..."

Before he could say the word "money", Li Ya frowned slightly and asked:
"What are his social connections?"

“No social connections.

"When Li Ping was here, he still had some connections. Now that Li Ping and Section Chief Liu are gone, their family conditions are average and they don't have many friends to interact with. So let's just leave it that way."

The clerk named Yucheng answered.

Li Ya nodded.

He believed this. His master Liu Xiong was a man who never got involved in alcohol, sex, money or anger. The junior fellow apprentice Li Ping he accepted after coming to Jinhai was said to be also a stubborn person, completely like his master.

They didn't make any money when these two people were alive, and now that they are dead, it's natural that the family is nervous.

“An average family background?
"The last time I saw him, he was dressed quite nicely, and he even treated a girl to a movie and Western food. Where does he get the money?"

Li Ya asked.

"He's good at foreign languages ​​and seems to be working as a translator for foreigners in a magazine. He should be able to earn extra money." Yucheng said.

Suddenly, he said:
“By the way, last night, he left the dormitory and went to Hongfu Tea House.

“Met with someone.

“It seems like he is someone with close ties to the Party.

"Yes, it was a member of the Party Communications Bureau. I have seen him before when he came to our station to negotiate for work.

“Former Military Police Commander Tang Wu.

"He is the one that Section Chief Liu and Ma Kui often come into contact with. He also has close contacts with this person."

Yucheng said in surprise.

"idiot.

"Why didn't you tell me just now? What does that person look like? Tell me." Li Ya said.

Yucheng gave a description.

Li Ya's brows furrowed tightly.

He has seen this man.

Not long after arriving at the station, Wu Jingzhong provided evidence that Liu Xiong was misled by Ma Kui and Tang Wu into "connecting" with the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics. His master blamed himself for losing his skills, and became an alcoholic, and was eventually beaten to death on the street.

That’s right, it was called the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics at that time.

In one of the photos, the person Tang Wu met was just as Yucheng described.

Having connections with the Party and the Bureau... Li Ya pursed his lips and tilted his chin as he pondered keenly.

"Go and call Li Chong to me." he ordered.

Yucheng quickly called Li Chong over.

The young man was indeed handsome, but his eyes were dark and his gaze was evasive. He lacked the integrity and spirit of those popular young men like Guo Youliang.

Li Ya has seen all kinds of people, and he can tell whether it is a mule or a horse at a glance.

This is the scumbag who really eats women's food.

"Captain Li." Li Chong nodded and bowed.

"Have you given away all your brother's things?" Li Ya asked.

“It’s really gone.

"Except for the evidence about Yu's pass, he rarely talks to his family. He only occasionally says something like revenge and killing Wu Laogou when he burns incense to Section Chief Liu."

Li Chong answered truthfully.

Li Ya frowned meaninglessly. He had asked these questions the last time they met.

It was because of Li Chong's words that he began to doubt Wu Jingzhong again.

Now it seems……

"Take him away!" Li Ya waved his hand.

"Captain Li, this is really all my brother has." Li Chong shouted in confusion.

"Yucheng, call Gao Yuan and bring people to search his house."

Li Ya gave an order and got into the car directly.

Return to the station.

Li Ya took the man directly to the interrogation room.

"Brother Li, what the hell is going on?" Li Chong sat on the electric chair, almost peeing his pants out of fear.

"Who did you meet at 8:23 last night?"

Li Ya rolled up the sleeves of his white shirt and asked in a deep voice.

"I, I didn't see anyone." Li Chong said.

"Did not say?
"beat!"

Li Ya turned his head away.

Lu Baoxing swung the whip and hit Li Chong on the head and face, causing blood to flow everywhere.

"Captain Li, I, I said.

"Someone came to me last night. He said he knew an editor of a magazine invested by some foreigners and asked me to write some negative information about Station Master Wu." Li Chong confessed honestly.

“Black material?
"What black material?" Li Ya asked with a frown.

"They said that Wu Jingzhong had dozens of mistresses.

"Corruption and bribery make the family extremely wealthy.

"They also said that Wu Jingzhong deliberately made things difficult for his subordinates, and that he was jealous of Lu Qiaoshan's talent and framed him to get rid of him.

"They also said that he colluded with the Japanese and secretly sold important intelligence from the Kuomintang government. He also had close contacts with General Okamura Yasuji. Liu Xiong was killed because he discovered all this.

"Just write whatever is disgusting."

Li Chong was afraid of pain and answered quickly.

It is understandable that Wu Jingzhong was involved in corruption and bribery, and Li Ya was also involved.

To say that Old Wu kept a mistress and colluded with the Japanese is pure nonsense.

With his prostate, even a woman would be of no use to him.

"So, you said that Wu Jingzhong's murder of Liu Xiong was also fabricated?" Li Ya said.

"I really don't have this!"

Li Chong quickly waved his hands to explain.

"Captain Li!

"We found two gold bars in Li Chong's home, as well as some manuscripts that slandered the stationmaster."

Yucheng walked in and handed it over.

“These random things are worth two gold bars?
"You are quite good at pretending."

Li Ya shook the gold bar and asked.

"I, I didn't expect the other party to be so generous.

"Captain Li, you don't trust me, but you can't trust my dead brother?"

Li Chong became anxious.

"I'm sorry, I don't even know your brother.

"Oh, now it's my turn.

"Beat him up and throw him into Shuitun Prison to feed the rats."

Li Ya was too lazy to talk to him anymore, so he put the gold bars in his pocket and walked out lazily.

It is clear.

Someone from the Dangtong Bureau offered a large sum of money to let Li Chong use Liu Xiong's incident to sow discord between himself and the stationmaster.

This is very possible.

Ye Xiufeng and Sun Chuanzhi suffered repeated defeats at the hands of Old Wu.

If I were in your shoes, I would not miss such a good opportunity.

Fortunately, I kept Yucheng as a chess piece.

Otherwise, I would have really fallen into their trap.

……

Inside the villa.

Hong Zhiyou is chatting with Ruirui.

"Secretary Hong, there's a phone call." Chou'er shouted in the living room.

Hong Zhiyou came out and answered:

"okay, I get it."

After hanging up the phone, he took the coffee handed to him by Choer and took a sip.

As expected, Li Ya went to find Li Chong.

Hong Zhiyou was not worried about Xie Ruolin's business ability at all.

The person he found could handle this small matter without any problem.

The current situation is to sacrifice the car to save the king.

How to say it, even though Li Ya is trapped by something, once the military aid arrives, it is very likely that he will soar to the sky.

We can get a glimpse of this from the phone call the chairman asked Zhang Qun to make to the stationmaster.

Now that the National Government has the evidence obtained by Li Ya, military aid is basically secured.

Moreover, the Jiang family father and son did not care much about James' affairs.

This shows that the government has power.

It’s just that I have watched too many movies and TV shows and have developed a stereotyped mindset, so I instinctively believe that the father and son of the Chiang family are at a disadvantage in the international arena.

If James, the chess piece, fails to kill Li Ya, then Li Ya will most likely be promoted and rewarded this time.

Not to mention replacing Yu Zecheng.

At least he will be valued by Jianfeng again and become active again.

Yu Zecheng has been pushed to the stage by Old Wu to compete with Li Ya.

By doing this, he could try his best to protect Wu Jingzhong and avoid a conflict with Li Ya.

Don't underestimate these details.

The reason why Old Wu can keep his position in Jinhai is that he is foolproof.

……

Army Hospital.

Mei Yingxue was lying on the hospital bed, dying.

Li Ya stood at the door and did not go in.

"How many days can it last?" he asked Ding Defeng beside him.

“She’s in a very bad condition right now.

“The wound was too severe and it has become infected.

"But rest assured, Captain Li, we will do our best to rescue her."

Ding Defeng answered respectfully from the side.

“All-out rescue?
"Why did I remember that your hospital's penicillin stock was depleted?"

Li Ya squinted his eyes and looked at him coldly.

"No." Ding Defeng was stunned.

"No?" Li Ya's eyes became sharp.

"Oh, it seems to be empty." Ding Defeng was stunned and said fearfully.

“If it’s gone, it should look like it’s gone.

"Do you know what I mean?"

Li Ya patted his shoulder and turned away.

Ding Defeng walked quickly to the General Affairs Office and said, "Director Li, the penicillin in the warehouse has been sealed first. If anyone needs it, please ask them to wait for a few days, especially for ordinary patients or those with mild inflammation.

"If they are from a prominent family or the case is serious, have them transferred to another hospital immediately."

"Dean Ding, what happened?
"If you stop taking anti-inflammatory drugs, someone might die."

Director Li said out of professional ethics.

"This is an army hospital, an institutional hospital, not a Red Cross charity hospital.

“You ask me, who should I ask?

"Just do it, why are you talking so much nonsense."

Ding Defeng gave some instructions, shook his head and walked out.

Don't underestimate him because he is a dean.

It is really difficult to be an official.

The municipal government, the garrison, the security command, the Bureau of Secrecy, and the Party Communications Bureau can all arrange work for them if a Bodhisattva comes.

He didn't know who to listen to every day.

……

Four days later.

Mei Yingxue is dead.

Li Ya went to examine the body personally, and finally he felt relieved.

at the same time.

The British sent spies to deliberately discredit the Nationalist government, and the disclosure of a large amount of data on the Nationalist government's mineral and oil resources greatly benefited international public opinion.

12 month 28 number.

Wu Jingzhong was ordered to go to Beijing and met the Chairman again.

Four p.m.

Wu Jingzhong returned to Jinhai and took a nap on the sofa with a tired look on his face.

"Teacher, why don't you go home and rest?" Hong Zhiyou handed him a hot towel.

Wu Jingzhong covered his face with it and kept it warm for a while:
"I can't rest. There are endless things to do.

"James' shot missed.

"Jianfeng and Lao Jiang didn't care how many people Li Ya killed. Some time ago, Gu Weijun had a quarrel with the British in the International Court of Justice and exposed all the scandals of the British.

"Truman simply waved his hand and approved a loan of $1 billion to the government.

"I met the old man this morning.

"The old man specially commended me and Li Ya. With Boss Dai's rank of major general blocking my promotion, it was very difficult for me to get promoted. The old man wanted to take this opportunity to transfer me to the second department as deputy director.

"When I join the Ministry of National Defense in the future, I will have the capital to be promoted to lieutenant general."

Wu Jingzhong said.

"What does the teacher mean?" Hong Zhiyou frowned.

"The old man is really happy this time, and I can see that he really wants to help me.

“But a nest of gold or silver is not as good as your own doghouse.

“I’m used to staying in Jinhai, and I feel uneasy staying in Jingling.

"Now that I have Ruirui's child, I have even less energy to think about pursuing a career in politics.

“Thanks to a few bathroom breaks.

“I didn’t dye my hair.

“When the old man saw me like this, he didn’t force me. After all, he and Jianfeng were already used to it, and he wanted to get rid of Lin Tai.

"I've come back after a detour."

Wu Jingzhong opened his hand and smiled.

"Teacher is wise." Hong Zhi nodded.

In two years, the national army will collapse.

While Jinhai is still relatively peaceful, why don't you hurry up and make some money so you can run to Jingling and plant your flag at the Presidential Palace?
"But there is another worry right now." Wu Jingzhong said.

"Li Ya?" Hong Zhiyou said.

"Yes.

"Li Ya wears this green hat well, it has become a pierced feather, and has turned into a yellow robe and jacket!
“The chairman may have been holding this anger for a long time.

"Openly promote Li Ya to colonel.

"Personally stamp and sign the promotion order, while others usually have Chen Bulei write it for them.

"If Jianfeng hadn't stopped him, he would have wanted to summon Li Ya to Jingling to hold a commendation meeting and award Li Ya the third-class Yunhui Medal on the spot." Wu Jingzhong said.

"understand.

"From the perspective of those under us, cutting off military aid is not a big deal.

"But for the chairman, it is a matter of great importance to his throne.

"Besides, the new British Prime Minister is not Churchill. The chairman always feels that he is not senior enough, and he is very angry to take the lead in messing with him.

"I want to use Li Ya's story to show it to the non-commissioned officers all over the world. It is only natural to boost their morale."

Hong Zhi has the Tao.

"Yes.

“The chairman is also a human being.

“As you get older, it’s normal to get a little emotional from time to time.

"By the way, has Li Ping's problem been resolved?"

Wu Jingzhong said.

“Thanks to the teacher for the timely reminder.

"I have already arranged everything. Li Ya has already imprisoned the man in Shuitun Prison. I guess everyone now understands everything." Hong Zhiyou said.

"Ok.

"Luckily I have this trick up my sleeve, otherwise I would have been pretending for nothing these days.

“This person is untreatable.

“Don’t offend if you can.

"I have a feeling Jianfeng will use him, and he might even be involved in the assassination of Lin Tai.

"What you fear will come true.

"If I had known that the British were so cowardly and useless, I should have let you take over this job."

Wu Jingzhong clapped his hands inwardly, thinking that he had miscalculated.

"Teacher, who could have predicted this?

"Isn't Jianfeng so scared that he doesn't even dare to issue an order?

“This is to preserve military aid.

"If he hadn't been saved, Li Ya might have been beheaded by now.

"I can only say that he is very lucky."

Hong Zhiyou smiled.

“Good luck itself is a kind of strength.

“I have brought the medal and promotion order back to Li Ya.

"Go and call him in.

"When things are fine, get closer to him.

"I think Zecheng might have a hard time in the future, so let him bear it first. There are plenty of opportunities, and we can always catch Li Ya in trouble.

"Perhaps this trip to Tianjin and Haihai by Madam and Lin Tai is a good opportunity."

Wu Jingzhong nodded.
