Chapter 259 Codename "Avalanche"
When the hero returns, the whole city cheers.
However, the Chinese people cheered for a while, then fell silent and looked at plane 2107 nervously.
During the fierce battle, plane 2107 was hit by Japanese machine gun bullets in many places and black smoke was emitted.
Relying on his superb driving skills, Xiang Chu slid down from a high altitude over the city of Hangzhou.
It felt like the plane had run out of fuel and was flying entirely on inertia.
As the flight altitude decreased, the oxygen became sufficient, causing the black smoke to grow thicker and thicker, threatening to catch fire.
In such a situation, 99 percent of pilots would choose to abandon the plane and parachute without hesitation.
Song Xi was so anxious that he kept jumping: "Silly! Jump out of the sky quickly."
"Brother Chu..."
Ning Caiwei looked up into the sky, choking with sobs and unable to speak.
At the control tower, an important figure shouted, "Quick! Let Xiang Chu parachute."
"Yes!"
The airport chief dispatcher picked up the loudspeaker and said, "Xiang Chu! Abandon the plane and parachute immediately."
"We have too few planes in our country, and we can't bear to give them up."
Xiang Chu responded, circled downward with the wind, and gradually entered the sky above Gangqiao Airport.
Everyone in the tower fell silent, and the female officers and their wives were sobbing quietly.
Indeed, aircraft cannot be produced domestically and all aircraft are imported at high prices.
Soon, plane 2107 entered the runway, trailing a trail of black smoke, and slid forward.
The fire truck and ground crew rushed over immediately, and Ning Caiwei and Song Xi also drove after them.
The plane stopped steadily. Xiang Chu opened the upper hatch, climbed out of the cabin, took off his flight cap, looked at the bullet holes on it with lingering fear, and jumped down.
"it is good!"
The voice of an important person was heard on the tower radio.
"it is good!"
Everyone cheered.
Xiang Chu walked towards Ning Caiwei and Song Xi, who were in tears, and said with a smile:
"You two! You're almost turning into tearful beauties."
"Hate it! People are so anxious."
Ning Caiwei threw herself into his arms and didn't let go for a long time.
Song Xi scolded: "Stop talking nonsense! Why don't you skydive?"
"I can't bear it!"
Xiang Chu smiled and gave her a gentlemanly hug, then let go.
Even so, the tower still heard the lady's broadcast at an inopportune moment:
"Secretary Song! Ask Xiang Chu to accompany us immediately for protection."
Xiang Chu laughed and said, "Sister Xi! She feels scarier than Kong Ling's mother."
"Get lost! I treat you as a sister."
Song Xi shouted loudly and punched him.
"sisters?!"
Xiang Chu was extremely stunned.
“I think this is very good.”
Ning Caiwei smiled sweetly and instructed,
"Brother Chu! I'm going home first."
"it is good!"
Xiang Chu nodded helplessly.
It was expected that he would accompany them for security.
However, it only took half a day before the important figures left Hangzhou overnight.
Late at night, Xiang Chu returned to Ning Xiao's family.
Walking into the living room, the floor was piled with gifts.
Ning Caiwei was still waiting for him to come back in the living room. She quickly stood up and threw herself into his arms, saying happily, "Brother Chu! People from all over Hangzhou City have come to give you gifts to express their admiration for you."
Xiang Chu pretended to be puzzled and said, "Didn't we just shoot down 12 enemy planes? There's no need to express it that way. Besides, neither the Japanese Air Force nor our Air Force will publicize it."
"De Se! How is that possible?"
Ning Caiwei couldn't help but pinch his face.
Xiang Chu was right. Shooting down 12 enemy planes in one fell swoop was a brilliant achievement.
However, the Japanese have always been arrogant and will never admit it.
The Nationalist Air Force also did not want to publicize an outsider from the Military Intelligence Department.
Such a feat will only remain in the memory of the people of the city, and it will never be forgotten...
At this moment, the radio transmission in the guest room sounded.
The two of them rushed into the guest room, and Xiang Chu sat down to transcribe and decipher the message, which showed as follows:
"Phoenix! The White Party slandered you for committing crimes in Nanjing, killing innocent people, and harming the wives and daughters of many high-ranking officials. According to intelligence, there is indeed someone impersonating you. I hope he will be eliminated."
Xiang Chu never expected that while he was away from Nanjing for such a long time, someone would impersonate him and do evil.
"The fake one has come out!"
Xiang Chu smiled bitterly and handed the telegram paper to Ning Caiwei.
Ning Caiwei said bitterly, "Brother Chu! It was definitely someone hired by the White Party to do this. Their purpose was to lead you to find the 'Li Gui' and then arrest you."
Xiang Chu replied, "I have received the message!" and said thoughtfully:
"If it is really the White Party, then this move is too vicious. It is very likely that it was done by the 'Fifth Column'."
After a pause, he said solemnly, "Caiwei! Let's go back to Nanjing tomorrow and investigate this matter."
Ning Caiwei nodded and said, "Well! It's time to go back to work."
Nanjing, Chen Fu’s residence.
Xu En chuckled, "Sir! I didn't expect that having Hua Kui, Wang Li, and Lin Xi play the role of 'Phoenix' and his accomplices would have such a big impact."
Chen Fu's face was gloomy, and he said in a cold voice: "Remember! You can only use this to discredit the Red Party and force them to hand over the 'Phoenix', while eliminating dissidents. Don't act rashly, otherwise you will end up in trouble."
"understand!"
Xu En nodded respectfully.
Chen Fu nodded with satisfaction and promised: "The 'Fifth Column' suffered heavy losses in the attack by the 'Phoenix', and you, the Executive Director, have become a commander without troops. Mao Feng is more likely to cause trouble than to accomplish anything, so you will immediately take over from him and serve as the Director of the Party Affairs Department."
"Thank you for your training, sir!"
Xu En was flattered, but still asked weakly,
"Sir! What has Mao Feng done wrong?"
Chen Fu rolled his eyes at him, but still explained:
"Years ago, I carefully arranged for our party's senior agents, such as 'Fugu' and 'Hidden Snake', to lurk in the core departments of the Red Party. They were dug out one after another by the Red Party. He was personally in charge of the contacts and cannot escape blame."
Xu En nodded and said, "I understand!"
Chen Fu said thoughtfully: "But this is just a reason for you to get promoted. It shouldn't be exposed. But what is the problem?"
Xu En thought for a moment and whispered, "Sir! We should carefully check all the places that have information about our party's high-level agents such as 'Puffer' and 'Hidden Snake'."
Chen Fu slapped his thigh and said loudly:
"Yes! All the confidential telecommunications departments."
Xu En had recently heard Hua Kui doubting Xiang Chu. He rolled his eyes and whispered, "Sir! The Telecommunications Department of the Political Department should be the top priority! I heard that Miss Kong also likes to find someone to play mahjong in the telecommunications room at noon."
Chen Fu hurriedly said, "Stop it! We can't afford to offend you."
But he was quite interested and asked with a smile: "Who did she go to play mahjong with?"
Xu En said slowly: "Deputy Chief of the Operations Section of the Military Intelligence Department..."
Chen Fu interrupted him and said angrily, "Xu En! Why don't you just say Xiang Chu? Who in the world doesn't know this guy?"
Xu En smiled awkwardly, "That's right, sir! Should we continue investigating?"
"check!"
Chen Fu said without hesitation, but hesitated, "But this kid is greedy and lustful, and he doesn't look like a member of the Red Party. He is also Ning Changde's nephew-in-law, so he can be considered a member of our CC faction.
Moreover, he had just shot down 12 Japanese planes today and saved the lives of Mr. and others, so he was reluctant and did not dare to do it. "
"so smart?"
Xu En was dumbfounded when he heard this. He originally wanted to tell Hua Kui all about his suspicions towards Xiang Chu, but immediately he dared not say another word.
At this moment, Chen Fu suddenly clapped his hands and shouted, "Come out!"
"Yes!"
A thin man in his 40s, wearing a robe, a top hat and a pair of glasses, walked out from behind the screen.
He bowed and said, "Avalanche greets the commander, and Director Xu!"
Chen Fu nodded and turned to Xu En and said, "Director Xu! Remember him, his code name is 'Avalanche', he has no real name."
"remember!"
Xu En nodded heavily.
Chen Fu looked at him and said in a deep and powerful voice: "Director Xu! 'Avalanche' is a super agent I planted in the Red Party early on. In order to avoid being exposed like 'Pufferfish', I asked him to find a suitable reason to leave the northwest and return to Nanjing in advance to help you catch all the underground members of the Nanjing Red Party in one fell swoop!"
"Thank you sir!"
Xu En said with great excitement.
"Avalanche" laughed and said, "Sir! Director Xu! I just heard your conversation and I think we can make use of Miss Kong's Mahjong game to identify whether Xiang Chu is the culprit who leaked 'Pufferfish' and 'Hidden Snake'."
"Okay! You set the trap."
Chen Fu readily agreed.
Needless to say, he has great trust in Avalanche and his abilities.
But Avalanche shook his head and said, "Sir! I can come up with a good plan, and we must quickly arrest the Red Party members who have been lurking in the key military and political departments of Nanjing for many years. Miss Kong's mahjong game involves a well-connected person, so we must not alert the enemy. Please just assign a small person."
"Yeah! Indeed."
Chen Fu nodded and ordered,
"Director Xu! Tomorrow you will find Xiao Xiao from the Telecommunications Office of the Political Department and tell her to identify Xiang Chu."
Xu En was surprised and asked, "Sir! Xiao Xiao is one of ours too?"
"Of course!"
Chen Fu smiled mysteriously.
