Chapter 235 A two-pronged approach
Action Team Office.
Li Ya is very panicked now.
In the last assassination attempt, he was almost dragged into it by Mao Wanli.
Although Jianfeng said it would not happen again.
But this time, Jianfeng directly instructed the stationmaster to investigate Zhou Fohai's gold deposits, and the person in charge was Yu Zecheng, a person Jianfeng was suspicious of.
Obviously he had lost Jianfeng's trust again.
He looked at the commendation order and the third-class Yunhui medal hanging on the wall, and felt very unhappy.
It’s not hot yet.
She was banished to the cold palace again.
Without Jianfeng's protection, Lu Qiaoshan mobilized a large number of troops in Peiping this time, interrogating Kawashima Yoshiko and cracking down on corruption, targeting Ma Hansan.
Ma Hansan.
No matter how deep the roots are, he dares to touch them.
If he comes to Jinhai, he will definitely be killed.
Li Ya knew that he had a lot of bad debts on his hands.
Just the death of Dong Cheng alone led to a reopened investigation.
There have also been repeated incidents of sabotage in the transportation of military supplies.
Lu Qiaoshan had criticized Tongpiao in person in the past, and this guy wanted to put the blame on him. Without Jianfeng's protection, he would have no way to escape this.
Don't say anything else.
I can’t stand being invited to tea three times a day.
Li Ya is waiting.
Wait for the webmaster to take action, or for Yu Zecheng or Hong Zhiyou to take action.
It is no longer a secret that Lu Qiaoshan has been uttering harsh words to webmasters everywhere.
Once the webmaster takes action, you won’t have to be so passive.
"How is it, has Secretary Hong come out?" Li Ya asked.
"Out.
"He was chatting and laughing with Deputy Station Master Yu." Gao Yuan said.
"It's already this late, and they still have the mood to talk and laugh?" Li Ya frowned.
“I understand, you go first.
"Tell the Third Department to keep a close eye on Peking. Contact me anytime if there's any movement."
he ordered.
As soon as Gao Yuan left, Li Ya took out a small box from his pocket. He opened it and found a jade bracelet of excellent quality inside.
This was originally the gift that Li Ya gave to Yu Zecheng when the stationmaster advised him to get closer to him last time and he was going to visit him.
But later I thought it wasn't worth it.
Yu Zecheng became the deputy station chief, but he didn't promote himself. Could he have gotten the position?
Logically, he should be the one thanking himself.
Why should I pay for it myself?
Therefore, Li Ya has never been willing to give it away.
As it happens, it comes in handy now.
He picked up the box and quickly came to Hong Zhiyou's office:
"Secretary Hong, are you busy?"
"I'm not busy. I'm just free." Hong Zhiyou put down the magazine and said with a relaxed look on his face.
"What's happening in Peking..." Li Ya hesitated and looked at him sideways.
"You are talking about Lao Lu, right?
"Don't think too much, this is coming for us.
"When interrogating Kawashima Yoshiko, the Japanese had old war criminals like Okamura Yasuji who had been working for many years, as well as the Ministry of National Defense and the Party Communication Bureau, all of which had connections.
“Even good words were passed to the chairman.
"Nothing works, the death penalty must be imposed, and it must be a public execution with international notification.
"Look at this wrist.
"This is killing the chicken to scare the monkeys. They are treating us like monkeys."
Hong Zhiyou smiled.
"Don't you think he's afraid of offending people by doing this?
"Ma Hansan is an old hand at shooting from behind."
Li Ya swallowed secretly and frowned.
“Hanging on the Beiping Garrison Command, who dares to move?
“Everyone knows that he was the first person to start the new year after Zheng Jiemin became the deputy minister.
"If anyone touches him at this time, wouldn't that be a slap in Zheng Jieming's face?"
Hong Zhi has the Tao.
"Do you think he will really return to Jinhai?" Li Ya asked.
“That’s for sure.
"You can imagine that Lu Qiaoshan left with hatred.
"With his temper, do you think he will feel at ease if he doesn't strike back?"
Hong Zhi has the Tao.
"Aren't you worried about the stationmaster?
“He is Ruirui’s father.
"Lu Qiaoshan is making threats everywhere, saying he wants to investigate the stationmaster," said Li Ya.
“Don’t worry about that.
"Lu Qiaoshan represents the will of Zheng Jieming. Officer Zheng and the stationmaster are old classmates and partners. They have a very good relationship.
"If you really want to kill me, send something to Ke Shufen, and this level will be over."
Hong Zhiyou smiled and did not mention Li Ya's fall into the well and the stone pit Lu Qiaoshan.
That's too low-level.
It is better to let people speak for themselves than to talk about them.
It is better to say good things in a friendly manner than to say bad things.
This is the secret of Wu Jingzhong's teaching by example.
Just like Mao Renfeng and Mao Wanli were always aggressive, but when Mao Renfeng was embarrassed, Wu Jingzhong always remained respectful and maintained the other party's face.
There is not the slightest sign of triumph or triumph.
It makes people feel comfortable when losing.
I have to turn around and express my gratitude to him as my close friend.
Li Ya became even more panicked when he heard this.
The webmaster has a way to escape, but he doesn't.
"Secretary Hong.
“To be honest, I used some tricks to send Lu Qiaoshan away.
"His hatred must be directed at me this time when he comes back.
"If the stationmaster doesn't intervene, I'll be in a very difficult situation."
Li Ya stopped pretending and told the truth.
"No way, you are a member of the Iron-Blooded Youth League. Lu Qiaoshan would never dare to touch you." Hong Zhiyou said with a smile.
"Don't mention it.
“This time, I let Mao Wanli kill me in the assassination attempt on Lin Tai.
“Plus, my affair with a female college student and my eating and drinking habits were exposed, and Jianfeng no longer trusted me.
"It's good enough that they didn't expel me from the Youth League."
Li Ya said with a wry smile.
“Captain Li, don’t be so pessimistic.
“If Jianfeng doesn’t care about you, how could the stationmaster not care about you?
“Don’t forget, you are his student.
"The stationmaster wants you to go to Peking with me.
“Help Lu Qiaoshan quietly.
"Do you get me?"
Hong Zhiyou frowned and said.
"Brother, I am at least an excellent student in the Qingpu class. I am definitely not as good as you in business, but I do know a little bit about things like condoms.
"From what you said, it seems like you already have an idea?"
Li Ya raised his eyebrows and asked.
"Ok.
“It’s easy to take away Luqiaoshan.
“One is internal.
“The second is external.
“It’s an internal matter. Lu Qiaoshan likes money, and there must be people in the inspection team he brought who also like money.
“What would happen if they accepted bribes and the newspapers reported it?
“External.
“The bigger Lu Qiaoshan’s move this time, the more people he will offend.
“The most important thing right now is to besiege Yancheng.
"If he could do something to Hu Zongnan and Fu Zuoyi and disrupt the morale of these senior officials, would the Chairman still allow him to do whatever he wants?
"Not only that, Ke Shufen is in Peking.
"If she fails to make any money and Lu Qiaoshan gets into trouble again, she will definitely go to Zheng Jieming to make trouble and make Lu Qiaoshan bear the consequences.
"When the time comes, all parties will join forces, and even if Lu Qiaoshan has three heads and six arms, he won't be able to withstand it."
Hong Zhiyou said lightly.
“That makes sense.
"But how can we drag Commanders Hu and Fu into this?" Li Ya asked happily.
“You’ll have to ask Ma Hansan about this.
"He is familiar with officers from various army groups, so it is easy for him to recruit one or two of them."
Hong Zhi has the Tao.
"Very good.
"You and I will go to Beiping immediately!" Li Ya was overjoyed.
"Captain Lee.
"You are more familiar with Beiping than I am, so you should lead the team this time." Hong Zhi was not in a hurry to leave.
Li Ya understood instantly and said quickly:
“No, I’m not familiar with Ma Hansan.
"Well, you will be in charge of this operation, and I will help you. I will do whatever you point to."
"Okay, that's settled. Let's go." Hong Zhiyou said.
……
Beiping.
In early spring, the wind blew all day long.
Ma Hansan, who was originally suffering from a cold, felt even worse.
Nine p.m.
He dragged his exhausted body and shivered back to his private residence.
“Yuzhu.
"Quick, get me a basin of water to wash my feet. Make it a little hot. Also boil a bowl of ginger and sugar water to drive away the cold for me." Ma Hansan shouted.
Soon, Liu Yuzhu was ready.
Ma Hansan soaked his feet and sipped the sugar water, and then he felt like he had come back to life:
“Hey, this Luqiao Mountain is really nothing.
“It’s just such a trivial matter, but I ask about it eight or nine times a day.
"He prefers to sit on a high-backed chair, leaving me with a stool.
"It would take an hour or two to ask questions, and the conversation would go on for the same few sentences.
"If he keeps interrogating me like this, my old bones will be torn apart sooner or later."
"Director Ma, I heard that Ke Shufen is here. Lu Qiaoshan is torturing you on purpose. Could it be that he misses you... Otherwise, let's just give him some money to send him away." Liu Yuzhu frowned.
“You think too simply.
"These guys are like tigers. It's okay if they don't have meat to eat, but once they smell the blood, they won't let go. No matter how much you feed them, they will never be full." Ma Hansan said.
“What to do then?
"Hey, you should have listened to me earlier. Let's go directly to Hong Kong Island, drink tea on the island and enjoy the sea view." Liu Yuzhu said.
"Yuzhu, you don't have to worry too much.
"I, Ma Hansan, am not someone who can be manipulated by anyone. Even Dai Li couldn't kill me, so what is Lu Qiaoshan to me?"
Ma Hansandao.
"Do you know that I am on the chairman's blacklist, but he has been just pushing me back and forth and still lets me hold a high position?" Ma Hansan asked with a smile.
"I don't know." Liu Yuzhu said.
“Because of this position, only I can do it.
"What is Peking?
“A transfer station for food, fodder and military equipment.
"The Northeast needs food, Hu Zongnan, Sun Lianzhong, and Fu Zuoyi also need food.
“Who is this food for?
“This is a huge subject.
"Soldiers cannot go without food for a day. These guys are all big guys with guns." The direct clique, the Guangxi clique, and the Shanxi-Suiyuan clique were always fighting fiercely.
"If we don't handle it right, let alone fighting, we might even start fighting among ourselves.
“I, Ma Hansan, am the only one who can hold this position.
“Central Army, I won’t lose a cent.
"Jinsui faction, a little less is not enough, give me the money and I will go and do it. At least we will not let the soldiers of each faction go hungry.
"hehe.
“He, Lu Qiaoshan, wants to make a move on me, but the time has not come yet.
"At least we have to wait until Hu Zongnan completely wipes out the Red Tickets and unifies the country."
Ma Hansan laughed.
"But it's not a good idea for them to waste your time like this.
“Today is an inquiry.
"It might turn out to be torture someday."
Liu Yuzhu said.
"He won't be able to torment me for long. Many people want me dead, and even more want me alive.
"Don't worry.
“Someone will take action against him.
"Don't even think about taking a dime from me, Mr. Lu."
Ma Hansan leaned back in his chair and said with his eyes narrowed.
As he was speaking, the guard came in:
"Director Ma, someone delivered a letter outside the door."
"Letter?" Ma Hansan asked.
He was about to reach out to take it when Liu Yuzhu stopped him and put on white gloves before taking it: "Director Ma, you'd better be careful at this delicate moment."
As she spoke, she moved further away and opened it carefully:
"old place!"
“The old place?
"What old place?" Ma Hansan was a little confused for a moment.
“Could it be Hong Zhiyou?
"Where we first met him.
"Now that the phone is being monitored, no one else will risk contacting you except him."
Liu Yuzhu analyzed.
Hong Zhiyou and Ma Hansan have a cooperative relationship.
He must be the one who least wants Ma Hansan to die.
"Come on, let's go meet this old friend.
"Two cars."
Ma Hansandao.
When they got outside, he and Liu Yuzhu each got into a car.
After going around for most of the circle, he finally got rid of the tail.
I arrived at the small hutong house where I first met Hong Zhiyou.
Squeak!
Ma Hansan pushed the door open and walked in, cautiously pulling out his gun.
"Don't be nervous, bro. It's me."
Hong Zhiyou walked out from behind the door and closed it.
"Brother, you are the only one who can come to see me at this time." Ma Hansan said with a smile.
When we got inside, we lit oil lamps.
"Brother, how's the situation here?" Hong Zhiyou asked.
“The situation is very bad.
"Lu Qiaoshan is torturing me more and more.
"Although I am still in office, I am afraid he will have to step up his game next time."
Ma Hansan's expression was calm, after all, he was a man who had seen many storms.
"Can you bear it?" Hong Zhiyou asked.
"My old bones won't last more than a few days.
"But don't worry, I have a life but no money.
"Zheng wanted to get money from me, but he had the wrong idea."
Ma Hansan sneered.
“Brother.
"I checked the list and found that among the inspectors coming to Beiping this time, there is one named Zhang Zhiping.
“This guy is a veteran.
"Can you give him some money to trick him?"
Hong Zhi has the Tao.
“I know what you mean.
"Lu Qiaoshan must have set rules for them. He probably doesn't have the courage to intervene if it involves me."
Ma Hansandao.
"Brother, you think you are narrow-minded, don't you?
"Lu Qiaoshan came to Beiping this time, and you are not the only one to be tidied up.
“There are also people from the Beiping City Defense Bureau and the Food Bureau.
“I studied it carefully.
“There’s a man called Liang Yueshan in the Grain Bureau, and he has an acquaintance in Jingling who knows Zhang Zhiping.
“You can ask someone to lobby his family and use your connections to get a meeting with Zhang Zhiping.
“The money is enough.
“Gold bars, dollars, the more and the more conspicuous the better.
"As long as we can capture evidence of Zhang Zhiping accepting bribes from Liang Yueshan's family, we can bring Lu Qiaoshan down with us."
Hong Zhi has the Tao.
"What a good plan, brother." Ma Hansan blinked and thought for a while, then said happily.
The newspaper media doesn't care whether Lu Qiaoshan accepted bribes.
As long as the inspection team collects the money.
Once the newspapers were in an uproar, they lost their footing.
Those who are investigating corruption are the first to become corrupt. Who are you here to investigate?
The people of Peking also disagree.
“That alone is not enough.
“Lu Qiaoshan is very likely to publicly punish Zhang Zhiping to calm the storm.
"The ones who can really hurt him are people like Hu Zongnan.
“Wouldn’t he possibly torture me?
“You suffer a little.
"When you can't bear it anymore, recruit someone.
"I think the best ones are Hu Zongnan's people. Didn't Hu Zongnan just get married not long ago? I heard that he dotes on his overseas wife. Do you know any officers who have connections with his wife?
“No immediate relatives.
"The kind who has some experience in this field and also holds an important position.
"If this kind of person is caught, it will not only affect military intelligence, but also cause Hu Zongnan to ask his wife to intervene, which will be very troublesome for Hu Zongnan.
“Once the general is angry, life will be difficult for Luqiaoshan.
“After all, the attack on Yancheng is imminent.
"Lu Qiaoshan is trying to disrupt the chairman's military plan. He deserves more than ten heads."
Hong Zhi has the Tao.
"Let me think about it." Upon hearing this, Ma Hansan paced back and forth with his hands behind his back.
"Yes.
"The First Ace Army has a deputy quartermaster named Ye Tianhua.
“He is Mrs. Hu’s fellow villager from Songyang, eastern Zhejiang.
"This guy is well-known in the circle for reselling military supplies. In a few days, a batch of them will be delivered to the warehouse of my hidden man.
"If we can catch the person red-handed, we'll see how Lu Qiaoshan tries the case."
Ma Hansan thought for a moment and quickly thought of a suitable candidate.
"Ok.
“You definitely can’t arrest people.
"It would take a heavyweight figure to arrest him personally, otherwise it would be difficult for Lu Qiaoshan to release him privately."
Hong Zhiyou stroked his forehead and said.
"Then it can only be Qiao Jiacai and Wang Puchen." He said after a pause.
"Wang Puchen.
“The Qiao family is Chief Delin’s people.
"If he shows up, the higher-ups will definitely think he's trying to save me on purpose. If that arouses the chairman's disgust, I'll only die faster.
“I know my own business.
“Zheng Jieming wants money.
"But the only one who can kill me is the Chairman, and now is not the time."
Ma Hansandao.
“Brother is really clear-headed.
"It's just that Wang Puchen is not easy to deal with." Hong Zhiyou said.
"Yes.
"This guy was transferred here by Mao Renfeng. He always followed my lead. Even though I am no longer the director of Pingjin, he is still respectful to me.
"But I know that if I end up on the guillotine someday, it will be because of this man.
“If I go find him, he’ll probably just smoke and pretend to be dead.
"Brother, you have a good tongue.
"It's all up to you."
Ma Hansan shook his head, looking helpless.
“I’ll try.
"Maybe there is some hope."
Hong Zhiyou pondered.
Wang Puchen is Mao Renfeng's confidant.
Mao Renfeng and Zheng Jieming have never gotten along.
Zheng Jieming was appointed Deputy Minister of National Defense. The first fire was set in Peking. It was probably Mao Renfeng who most wanted to put out this fire.
Mao Renfeng would probably be very happy to see Ye Tianhua arrested and Lu Qiaoshan become enemies with the most popular figure at the time, Hu Zongnan.
After all, opportunities like this don't come often.
Moreover, Wang Puchen's identity is just right.
The level is higher than Luqiao Mountain.
He has a long career in the Secret Service.
Enough of the authority.
“Okay, then it’s settled.
“I went to Liang Yueshan’s family and asked him to bribe Zhang Zhiping.
"Brother, go and convince Wang Puchen.
"Wait until Ye Tianhua arrives in Beiping, and then go to the warehouse to seize the stolen goods."
Ma Hansan felt much better after the conversation.
"OK.
“Brother, be careful in everything and try to hold on for a few more days before trying again.
“The moves are too fast, and it’s easy to tell they’re fake.
"Don't forget, you are an old military commander."
Hong Zhiyou gave this advice half-jokingly.
"What old military commander.
"As soon as the plane that hit Boss Dai took off, the Military Control Commission was gone forever.
“Stop talking, I have to go.
"It's to prevent the spies from Luqiaoshan from targeting you."
After Ma Hansan finished speaking, he walked away quickly.
Hong Zhiyou followed closely.
I found a public telephone booth and called Wang Puchen's home.
Wang Puchen has always been low-key.
Not many people know Lao Wang’s home phone number.
Coincidentally, Hong Zhiyou was one of them.
