Chapter 952 Assassination at the Dock
Such a grand person attracted the attention of people on the dock.
After the jeep stopped, several military trucks came rushing over.
"Squeak!"
The sound of military trucks braking suddenly could be heard constantly.
A lieutenant colonel shouted loudly with a megaphone:
"Guards, take your positions in honor guard formation!"
Countless armed guards rushed down from the trucks, two by two with guns facing each other, and formed a long row, extending from the upper platform to the gangway of a transport ship.
Ning Changde asked doubtfully, "Caiwei! Could it be that the Master and Madam are coming?"
Ning Caiwei shook her head and said, "Definitely not. How could the sir and the madam travel by boat? And they would never make such a big scene. Wouldn't that be the same as telling the Japanese spies to assassinate them?"
At this time, many female students holding flowers and red flags ran to the back of the guards and lined up.
Two tall male students held up a banner:
"Warmly send off Lieutenant General Huang Baitao to lead the 77th Army to defend the temporary capital."
Under the command of the young lieutenant colonel, the female students shouted:
"Farewell to the God of War! Farewell to Lieutenant General Huang! May the God of War return triumphantly."
"Crack!"
The sound of firecrackers echoed throughout Chaotianmen Wharf.
A lieutenant general in his 30s, surrounded by a group of officers, walked down the platform with a smile on his face and waved frequently, and walked down the stairs to the largest transport ship at the dock.
Huang Baitao's eyes wandered, and when he saw the beautiful Ning Caiwei on the dock, his eyes suddenly lit up.
He took off his military cap and patted the lieutenant general rank on his shoulder, trying to attract Ning Caiwei's attention.
Ning Changde naturally saw through his thoughts and said with a wry smile, "Caiwei! It turned out to be Huang Baitao, the guy who is seeking fame and reputation. I have to go back, so as not to be caught by him and ask me for this and that.
Oh, right! Tell Xiang that guns have no eyes, so be careful."
Before Ning Caiwei could speak, the plainclothes officer behind her stepped forward and whispered, "Uncle! Don't walk in the middle of the stairs when you go back. You must walk on both sides of the stairs to prevent assassination by Japanese spies."
"You kid..."
Ning Changde almost cried out in surprise and whispered,
"So you were dressed up as this person, I couldn't recognize you."
Xiang Chu said anxiously, "Uncle! The dock is full of people of all kinds. Caiwei and I must board the boat and set off immediately. You should go back quickly."
Ning Changde nodded and said, "Okay! You and Caiwei take care of yourselves."
After saying this, he lowered his hat, picked up his suitcase and turned away.
Ning Caiwei glanced at the platform and whispered, "Brother Chu! Let's get on board quickly. Except for Huang Baitao, Xu Zeng, Zeng Yun, Lin Qiaoer and others are all here."
"go!"
Xiang Chu picked up the suitcase and gave a look to Gan Rong and others who were also wearing makeup.
Everyone quickly got on board, started the engine, reeled in the ropes, and were about to leave the dock.
Unexpectedly, the lieutenant colonel rushed forward, stepped on the cable that had not been fully retracted, and shouted: "Asshole! Your ship must wait until Lieutenant General Huang's ship leaves before you can leave."
Liu Zhengxiong was at the bow, and said angrily, "Lieutenant Colonel! Whoever is ready first will set sail. Why should your ship go first?"
The lieutenant colonel said arrogantly: "Lieutenant General Huang's ship sailed first, which means that our 77th Army will take the lead on the battlefield and achieve the title of the world's number one army and the title of Yellow God of War."
Liu Zhengxiong sneered, "You bullshit number one army in the world and the Yellow God of War, if you are not afraid of being dragged into the river, just hold on to the rope and don't let go, go!"
Gan Rong increased the reverse engine power and steered the boat towards the center of the river.
The lieutenant colonel pulled hard on the cable and shouted:
"Someone come! We can't let this boat go first."
The guards rushed up and wanted to help him to tow Xiang Chu's boat.
Xiang Chu stood on the deck, picked up the fire axe, and chopped it down fiercely.
"Crack!"
The cable was cut by his axe.
The lieutenant colonel lost his strength and fell heavily to the ground, roaring angrily:
"Boy! Wait until Yichang and see how I, Huang Shan, will deal with you."
Huang Baitao stepped forward and shouted, "Huangshan! Why didn't you keep the female major general on this ship?"
Huang Shan got up and said with a wry smile: "Lieutenant General! I thought you were leaving the boat, not the people."
Huang Baitao rolled his eyes at him and ordered, "Go find out who that female major general is. If she is from our 77th Army Group, transfer her to my command post immediately."
"Yes!"
Huang Shan hurriedly accepted the order.
At this time, Xu Zeng walked up to Huang Baitao, pointed at the boat going away and said:
"Lieutenant General Huang! The female major general is Ning Caiwei. She was originally a secretary of the Central Party Committee. She was just promoted to Chief of Staff of Minister Chen and was promoted to the rank of Major General."
Huang Baitao nodded with satisfaction and asked with a smile: "Director Xu! What else do you know about Ning Caiwei? Tell me everything. I swear I will pursue her."
Xu Zeng smiled bitterly and said, "Lieutenant General Huang! Ning Caiwei is Lord Chu's wife, you can't pursue her."
Huang Baitao said disapprovingly: "I, Huang Baitao, don't care whose wife she is. As long as I like her, no one can escape."
Xu Zeng pointed behind him and said with a smile, "Lieutenant General Huang! I don't know Ning Caiwei well. Go ask Deputy Minister Zeng. He knows."
Huang Baitao said angrily: "Then why did you come over here and tell me all this? Are you trying to whet my appetite?"
Xu Zeng smiled bitterly and said, "I came here to report the situation to Minister Chen."
Huang Baitao didn't even bother to point at him. He greeted Zeng Yun with a smile on his face, and his lustful eyes were fixed on Qing Mu Lian Hua again.
He extended his hand to Qing Mu Lian Hua and said with a smile, "Miss Lin! Are you also going to fight on the front line?"
Qing Mu Lianhua nodded and said, "Yes! I will accompany my boyfriend Gao Yang to the front line, hoping to help him gain great military merit."
Huang Baitao saw that she didn't shake hands with him, so he withdrew his hands in displeasure, looked at Gao Yang played by Xiao Lin Zhiye, and said unhappily: "Gao Yang! Acting commander of the 77th Division, why don't you salute when you see me, the commander?"
Xiao Lin Zhiye saluted hurriedly and said loudly: "Gao Yang greets the commander. Please cultivate him more."
Huang Baitao said with a smile: "Very good! As expected of a military advisor who returned from abroad, he knows etiquette very well."
Qing Mu Lianhua asked tenderly, "Commander Huang! Where are Minister Chen and Lord Chu? Why can't I see them?"
Huang Baitao said coldly, "Minister Chen is leaving by boat. As for Lord Chu, this lieutenant general does not know this person."
Qing Mu Lianhua smiled and said, "Really? Then you are the highest official here."
Huang Baitao said shamelessly: "Of course! Miss Lin! Come on board with me, I will treat you to French champagne."
"All right!"
Qing Mu Lianhua said happily, turned to look at Zeng Yun, and blinked, meaning: If you can't kill Minister Chen, just kill this guy.
Zeng Yun nodded at her, looked into the distance first, then put his finger quietly on his chest and pointed at Huang Baitao.
"Bang!" A gunshot rang out.
Huang Baitao's hat was hit by a sniper bullet and fell to the ground.
A stabbing occurred on the dock, and people screamed and ran in all directions.
"Commander, get down!"
Huang Shan roared and threw Huang Baitao to the ground.
"Bang! Bang!" Gunshots rang out one after another, and several officers around Huang Baitao were hit and fell to the ground.
Who could have thought that a shooting could occur at Chaotianmen Wharf, which is usually extremely safe.
Countless guards surrounded Huang Baitao and formed several barriers to protect him.
