Xiao Quan Chunyi Lang was not only an eloquent diplomat, but also a very skilled marksman.

Might as well go all the way!

Now that he had started, he would see it through to the end.

Xiao Quan Chunyi Lang didn't stop until he had emptied the bullets from his gun.

When he had planned to assassinate Xie Jinyuan just now, he had quietly moved his feet and entered the circle of Japanese guards.

When he fired, the first reaction of those multinational military observers not far away was not to stop him.

Instead, they looked for a safe position, and it wasn't until they realized the gunfire came from nearby.

It was when the Japanese minister, who had been cursing a moment ago, fired that these people breathed a sigh of relief.

They all knew that even if Xiao Quan had the guts of a bear, he wouldn't dare to shoot at them.

Now they had the presence of mind to witness what would happen next.

Zhang Boting, who was talking to Xie Jinyuan, also noticed that it was Xiao Quan Chunyi Lang who was firing.

Just as he was about to rush over to stop him, Xiao Quan had already fired all seven bullets in the gun.

Moreover, Xiao Quan was in the middle of a group of Japanese guards, so Zhang Boting couldn't rush in even if he wanted to stop him, and there was no time.

The observers then shouted, "Stop! Xiao Quan! The concession has laws, the concession has justice."

Whether those observers sincerely wanted to stop him, no one knew.

When the concession police heard the gunfire here, they rushed over and saw the murderer protected in the middle by the Japanese guards.

These policemen were also a little flustered: in this situation, they used to turn a blind eye.

Let these foreign masters go.

But today, the foreign masters of the foreign masters were all here.

What were they going to do?

These thugs at the bottom suddenly felt weak and helpless.

Huang Jinrong, the Chinese chief detective of the concession, came up in a sweat to salute the foreign fathers and ask for instructions on how to deal with the situation.

Duke Gilbert Osmond waved his hand: "Misunderstanding! It's all a misunderstanding!"

Huang Jinrong, the Chinese chief detective of the concession, who was used to observing people's expressions, finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Now he and his men don't have to be embarrassed."

He also waved his hand and dismissed the police and detectives who rushed out from the shadows.

He silently mourned in his heart: "Regimental Commander Xie! I'm sorry, it's not that I don't want to avenge you, it's just that I eat their food, hold their bowl, and am under their control.

I can't resist at all!"

Among the supplies sent to the Sihang Warehouse a few days ago, Huang Jinrong alone supported two truckloads of supplies.

Although he was a gang leader, he still knew the importance of patriotism.

The distance from the south bank to the north bank of the Suzhou River was more than forty meters, and Zhang Boting had deliberately chosen the narrowest place.

In the dark night, although it was not clear, everyone standing on the south bank of the Suzhou River still saw:

The stalwart figure on the opposite bank slowly fell in the night!

Several figures immediately窜 (cuan4 - darted) out from the north bank of the Suzhou River, and someone picked up the figure that had just fallen: "Regimental Commander Xie! Regimental Commander Xie!"

Some people were also shouting, "Company Commander Shi! Company Commander Shi!"

He Xiangning was extremely angry and scolded loudly: "Xiao Quan! You have insulted the identity of a diplomat!"

Then she said to Sir Gilbert Osmond, "I demand that Regimental Commander Xie Jinyuan be immediately taken to the concession for medical treatment!

Arrest Xiao Quan for violating the laws of the concession!

The incident that just happened here seriously violated the purpose of the concession.

This is a peaceful place free from the interference of war.

Japanese soldiers actually attacked National Revolutionary Army officers from the concession. This is a serious diplomatic incident.

I reserve the right to further investigate the responsibility!"

Sir Gilbert Osmond immediately agreed: "Let Mr. Xie Jinyuan enter the concession for treatment immediately, Ms. He!

Please rest assured, we will have the best doctors to treat Mr. Xie."

As for the things He Xiangning said later, he treated them as air.

Sir Gilbert Osmond very skillfully positioned Xie Jinyuan as a gentleman, not admitting that he was a soldier.

This was to avoid being caught by the Japanese when dealing with them in the future.

Zhang Boting immediately shouted: "Send Regimental Commander Xie into the concession immediately."

It was less than a hundred meters from where they were to the garbage bridge connecting the two banks, and Zhang Boting quickly saw the wounded being sent over.

The first sight of the seriously wounded man made him stunned: "Regimental Commander Xie! Regimental Commander Xie!"

The wounded man on the stretcher responded softly.

Zhang Boting whispered something to He Xiangning.

He Xiangning said to Sir Gilbert Osmond: "Thank you for your kindness, Sir Gilbert Osmond. We also have our own doctors and hospitals in the concession.

For the safety of Regimental Commander Xie, let's send him to our own hospital!"

What Zhang Boting had just told her was: "The person being sent over is not Regimental Commander Xie, but Company Commander Shi Meihai.

Although I don't know what's going on, judging from this situation: Regimental Commander Xie should be safe and sound."

Tonight, at the Peace Hotel banquet, the organizer, Xiao Quan Chunyi Lang, had lost face and never mentioned the matter again.

The observers from various countries made appointments to go to entertainment on their own.

He Xiangning was going to watch 'Regimental Commander Xie' undergo surgery with her own eyes, so she couldn't go either.

When Sir Gilbert Osmond was leaving, he finally said to Mr. He, "Ms. He! I would like to order a painting from you."

He Xiangning couldn't refuse the British gentleman who had just given her a favor.

She could only nod and agree.

Sir Gilbert Osmond continued: "We just saw the Sihang Warehouse in the military observation room, and what happened afterwards, I think it is very meaningful.

I think Ms. He will definitely be able to paint an excellent painting."

He Xiangning thought of the smoke and dust rising into the sky just now, and the appearance of the entire Sihang Warehouse in the mist.

It was very similar to the current situation of this country.

She smiled and said: "In the midst of confusion, light will always come!"

Sir Gilbert Osmond smiled and said: "I have always firmly believed in this!

Barbarism can only succeed for a while, justice is eternal!"

He Xiangning smiled and stretched out her small hand: "I thank the Sir for his friendship on behalf of the Chinese people!"

Sir Gilbert Osmond smiled: "For the time being, this can only be my personal friendship, but I believe that in the near future, this will definitely become the friendship between our two countries!"

From his words, He Xiangning heard that there were also different voices within the British government regarding the current war.

Her expression finally relaxed a little: "I will do my best to complete this feat."

"I look forward to it!"

Returning the focus to when Zhang Boting was about to talk to Regimental Commander Xie: Lin Fan suggested using a soldier to stand on the shore and impersonate Xie Jinyuan.

Anyway, it was already dark at the time, and across the river, both sides could only distinguish the general outline.

In fact, even men and women could not be distinguished.

Xie Jinyuan insisted on talking to the chief of staff himself.

Third Company Commander Wu Meihai stood up and said that he was willing to replace the regimental commander on the surface, and Xie Jinyuan himself would squat on the side and speak.

This was completely two people singing a duet.

The audience was the citizens on the opposite bank, the multinational military observation group, and some high-level officials of the National Revolutionary Army.

Across the river, it was really impossible to see the difference in body shape.

When Xiao Quan Chunyi Lang fired, Xie Jinyuan realized that Company Commander Lin Fan had saved his life again.

Fortunately, Xiao Quan was using a pistol, across the nearly fifty-meter-wide Suzhou River.

Although his marksmanship was very good, limited by the conditions of the pistol itself, Company Commander Wu Meihai's injury was serious, but it was not life-threatening.

However, the injury would require at least two months of recuperation.

Back at the Sihang Warehouse, the Sihang Warehouse had a power outage and a water outage today!

The Japanese cut off the water and electricity to the Sihang Warehouse.

The purpose of their doing this was actually of little practical use, just to disgust the National Revolutionary Army stationed at the Sihang Warehouse.

In the flickering firelight, all the soldiers of the entire 542nd Regiment were beaming with excitement on their faces.

They had just annihilated a Japanese battalion!

Such a record, even in the entire Songhu battlefield, was considered a major victory.

At this time, the officers and soldiers of the 542nd Regiment did not know that this Japanese battalion had not been completely annihilated.

They also had an artillery squad, because the road was difficult and the equipment was heavy, they arrived much later than the preceding infantry company.

Therefore, the Yokouchi Ryunosuke Battalion was not completely annihilated in its entirety.

Lin Fan whispered to Xie Jinyuan: "Tonight, taking advantage of the darkness, the entire regiment should restore all the destroyed fortifications.

It will be convenient to continue to defend tomorrow.

At the same time, the Japanese don't know yet how they were finally annihilated.

This kind of tactic can be used again."

Xie Jinyuan now listened to Lin Fan.

After hearing it from Lin Fan, he immediately announced to all the soldiers: "Everyone has worked hard, we have just won a great victory.

Next, we will continue to fight such great victories.

Today's victory is inseparable from the outer fortifications and trenches.

Therefore, everyone take a rest, and after dinner, the 1st company will be on guard, and the remaining three companies will go out together.

Repair the fortifications destroyed by the Japanese!"

All the soldiers agreed to this order.

Then they began to talk about the scenes they saw when cleaning the battlefield.

This one said: He saw a Japanese soldier, whose two eye sockets were hit by two iron bullets, and his entire eyes were gone, turning into two black holes.

Then the whole face and body were intact!

The equipment taken off from this Japanese soldier was all intact!

What a good Japanese soldier!

When he finished speaking, he didn't forget to sigh.

Immediately, a soldier picked it up: Only dead Japanese soldiers are good Japanese soldiers!

He continued: "When I was cleaning the battlefield, I saw a pile of Japanese soldiers piled together.

After uncovering the three Japanese soldiers on top, I found that the Japanese soldier lying at the bottom had no injuries at all.

But he was dead!

How did he die, guess?"

"Scared to death!"

"Killed by an iron bullet!"

"It has already been said that he has no injuries! It is impossible to be killed by an iron bullet."

"How did he die?"

"I don't know, so I'm asking you."

'Was he crushed to death by those three Japanese soldiers?'

The soldiers' discussions were varied.

The soldiers of the special company were wiping their guns during this time.

Among the soldiers of the 542nd Regiment, someone said with a smile: "They value these guns more than their wives.

They have wiped them for the second time today."

Another soldier said: "Company Commander Lin told them that they should cherish their guns as they cherish their eyes."

One soldier said: "When Company Commander Lin was talking about guns, I heard him say that this gun should not be seen as made of steel, but it is actually very delicate.

Even if it has only fired one shot, it will rust the next day if it is not wiped and maintained.

If it is used in a dusty place, the gun may not fire the next day.

It may even explode and hurt yourself."

The other soldiers were surprised: "Is that so! There was so much dust at the end just now.

Not to mention that dust entered the barrel of the gun, dust also entered my eyes."

"Should we also wipe our guns! If they explode when firing, we will be the ones to suffer."

These soldiers all began to take out their guns and wipe them.

Each time after firing bullets, the weapons need to be wiped. This is the most basic operation in the training Lin Fan received.

It's just that in this era, the training of soldiers is not so strict, and some soldiers are a little lazy. Their guns are fired one by one anyway.

The requirements for wiping guns are not high.

But guns are indeed prone to rust, especially those parts that have been smoked by gunpowder gas.

For example, the barrel: inside it, those rifling, even if only one bullet is fired, the entire rifling will be filled with gunpowder residue.

If you don't wipe them out in time, they will rust the next day, and if you don't wipe them all the time.

It won't be long before the rifling of this gun will change.

It ages particularly quickly!

The shooting accuracy of the entire gun is completely gone.

Such a gun can be heard on the battlefield, but it is too difficult to kill the enemy.

During the War of Resistance Against Japan, the weapons of the National Revolutionary Army soldiers often had no rifling at all, and the bullets fired had no accuracy at all.

It has to be said that the soldiers' attitude towards guns is also a very important reason.

Everything that happened today was recorded by the reporters.

Li Xian had been paying special attention to Lin Fan's every move.

It also attracted Lin Fan's attention, and finally seized the opportunity when Lin Fan was alone.

Li Xian smiled and leaned up, and whispered: "Company Commander Lin, can we talk?"

The reporter's level is not covered, this time he didn't mention the interview, just said talk.

Lin Fan heard the meaning of Li Xian's words, and smiled: "As long as it is not published publicly, it is still possible."

Li Xian also heard Lin Fan's meaning: Lin Company Commander doesn't mind the spread within a small range.

This was a signal, and Li Xian's heart pounded.

Years of double identity made him immediately suppress his excitement and asked casually: "Company Commander Lin is very proficient in all aspects of military affairs!"

Lin Fan smiled: "Reporter Li, just say anything directly! My time is tight."

Li Xian didn't expect Lin Fan to cut in so directly, and suddenly interrupted his thoughts.

After thinking about it, he decided to go straight to the point: "What does Company Commander Lin think of the current National United Front?"

Lin Fan smiled on his face and complained in his heart: So unpleasant!

Lin Fan, who came from later generations, had not personally experienced the White Terror, and did not know what the party members who were active behind enemy lines had survived.

However, he still said seriously: "The current stage is the first stage of the Japanese invasion, and the people of all fronts across the country are united.

But the gang headed by Chang Kaishen will not change their view of the Red Party.

When the War of Resistance enters the stalemate stage, he will create friction.

If I were the leader of the Red Party, I would have to be fully prepared for this."

Li Xian was stunned for a moment: "You are very sympathetic to the Red Party?"

Lin Fan smiled: "I am not sympathetic, although I have no chance to know them, but I know them no less than you.

From an ideological point of view alone, I should be a comrade with them."

Li Xian heard Lin Fan's clear statement: "We are comrades! Comrade Lin Fan!"

Lin Fan pretended to be surprised and said: "You are..."

Li Xian nodded heavily: "I am!"

Then he asked the previous question: "What do you mean by the first stage and the second stage of the War of Resistance?"

Lin Fan could only copy the great man's conclusion and said with a smile: "I think the War of Resistance is divided into three stages, defense, stalemate, and offense.

Now the people of the whole country are awakened, and Japan's weapons and equipment are more advanced than ours.

We are still in the defensive stage.

My country has a vast territory, and the rear has mountainous and hilly areas that are very conducive to defense. At this time, the Japanese front will become longer and longer. The long supply money is the best target for the Red Party's activities.

At this time, the Japanese will no longer be able to continue to advance, and the entire strategy will enter a stalemate stage.

This is the most difficult time.

At this time, it is time for both sides to fight for national potential. Japan is small and has few resources. This kind of military government with all people as soldiers will not last for a few years, and their potential will be quickly exhausted.

At that time, they will have no choice but to shrink their defense lines and can only shrink to some major city nodes.

This will enter the third stage, the offensive stage, and we will quickly defeat the Japanese in a devastating way and hit their homeland."

After listening to Lin Fan's exciting judgment, Li Xian excitedly recorded all these words.

He said to Lin Fan: "Company Commander Lin! These judgments of yours are too important, and I feel very reasonable.

I want to pass these words of yours to my superiors.

May I?"

Lin Fan smiled: "Just pay attention to keeping it secret! You must not expand it."

He was afraid that Li Xian would not understand: "The timing is not right now, some conclusions will affect everyone's enthusiasm if they are said now!"

Li Xian immediately understood: the War of Resistance is a long-term and arduous battle, and it cannot be ended in a short time.

If these conclusions are spread now, they will打击 (da3 ji1 - dampen) the confidence of many ordinary Chinese people.

He immediately said: "The confidentiality work of our party has always been trustworthy."

Lin Fan also said with a smile: "I believe it!"

Li Xian had never felt that Lin Fan was so pleasing to the eye at this time!

We are comrades!
