As the New Second Army Military Headquarters, the Quzhou Administrative Office and the Party Headquarters jointly issued a document, a new round of anti-corruption operations began. The intelligence department made a decisive attack and quickly arrested 198 traitors including Fang Zhen with the help of the garrison. On February 4th, the first day of spring, a public trial was held in Caishikou, Quzhou. At first, Fang Zhen and others refused to admit their crimes until death. Finally, under the testimony of captured Japanese wounded soldiers and Wu Zhe, and in front of the captured Japanese liaison telegram, Fang Zhen and others were speechless. In the end, the presiding judge sentenced Fang Zhen and the 92 traitors involved in the case to death, and the other 106 people were sentenced to prison terms ranging from five to 20 years. Later, all the criminals were put on prison cars and paraded through the streets. Along the way, Quzhou people took mud, rotten vegetable leaves, cow dung and other objects and angrily threw them at Fang Zhen and others, shouting and cursing. Finally, as the executioner waved his sword, the heads of Fang Zhen and others flew out in arcs. When they fell to the ground, their eyes had not been closed, and blood spattered everywhere. The entire trial and execution process was recorded. After being processed by technical staff, the assassination of Chiang Kai-shek was blurred, and it was broadcast by Phoenix Radio, which immediately caused a strong impact on people across the country. In the next three days, the trial was broadcast more than ten times in succession. Out of hatred for the traitors, the listeners in front of the radio never tired of listening to it, which was very satisfying. On February 7th, the 8:00 o'clock news broadcast on the eighth day of the first lunar month was the last recorded broadcast. Before the end, the announcer's mellow voice appeared: "Dear listeners in front of the radio, there are 450 million compatriots in the country. , Overseas Chinese, during the inspection of Mr. Chiang Kai-shek, the supreme leader of the party and state, in Quzhou this time, Commander Wu Ming of the New Second Army made a clever plan to arrest and bring to justice the lackeys and traitors lurking among the people in Quzhou. Now please listen to the recording of Commander Wu Ming's speech. This is the first time that Commander Wu has appeared on our program. As an announcer, I feel very proud" Millions of listeners in front of the radio were excited. At the same time, the top leaders of the Kuomintang and the Communist Party in Wuhan and Yan'an also turned around under the notice of telecommunications personnel. Turn on the radio button. After continuous brainwashing by Phoenix Broadcasting Station, Wu Ming has been molded into an invincible and victorious general. There are folk legends such as the reincarnation of "Yue Wumu", "Qi Shaobao" and the White Tiger Star descending to earth. He is covered with a layer of Mythical color. Countless listeners are looking forward to listening to Wu Ming's voice. "Hello fellow countrymen, I am Wu Ming. The Japanese invaders invaded the mountains and rivers and perished. This is the tragedy of our country and the nation. As soldiers, our New Second Army used our own flesh and blood to fight against the Japanese aircraft and artillery. We are not afraid of death because we protect the They are our brothers and sisters, they are the motivation for every officer and soldier of our New Second Army to fight the enemy bravely. However, I never expected that someone would stab us in the back, and it was none other than our compatriots." After a slight pause, Wu Ming's voice was very angry: "As everyone knows these days, Fang Zhen was sent to study in Japan by the government. He studied at Waseda University for three years. During these three years, the National Government The purpose of giving Ruoyu supplements in his study and life is just for one thing, that is to let him learn skills and come back to serve the motherland. " "But how did he do it? Yes, he came back, but he came back with militaristic thoughts. All day long, he thought about how to make his motherland a Japanese colony so that he could use his master's prestige to become a master. During the few years after returning to China, he traveled around Quzhou, just looking for valuable targets. Pass the information about our government and army to the Japanese intelligence department. The Japanese threw him a few pieces of cake, and he just licked the Japanese devil's ass and became a shameful traitor." Wu Ming's breath increased and he spoke in an passionate voice. Said: "Forty and fifty million compatriots, now our country and nation have reached a critical moment of life and death. Each of us must contribute our own strength and unite closely under the banner of the Anti-Japanese War. Under the banner of Chiang Kai-shek, Under the leadership of the Chairman, we will fight back bravely against Japanese imperialism and let the Japanese pay with blood" "At the same time, we must also declare war on those shameless traitors and traitors. We must vigorously condemn and cast aside their treason and traitorous behavior. Here, I ask every conscientious citizen to immediately take up arms and attack the Japanese devils and those traitors who are relying on their power, so that they will be in panic at all timesDown with the traitors and down with Japanese imperialism." The last sentence was very loud. When it was transmitted to thousands of households through the speakers of the radio, Wu Ming's voice seemed a bit sad and sharp, but no one found it harsh at this time. The people sitting in front of the radio followed and shouted: "Down with the traitors! "Down with Japanese Imperialism" February 7 at 2 pm, Guanyin Hall at the south entrance of Fangcun. After more than half a month of hard march, the New Third Division finally returned. Although most of the officers and soldiers were in ragged clothes after a long march, they were still in good spirits. Teams of officers and soldiers looked excitedly at the welcoming crowd. Wu Ming stood in front of the crowd, followed by the military headquarters and generals of the New Second Division and the Independent Division.and the fellow villagers who were invited to watch the ceremony, and the others were relatives of the officers and soldiers. Wu Ming came to the front of the team and said loudly to the officers and soldiers: "Brothers of the New Third Division, you have worked hard. Your relatives welcome you home." At this moment, the eyes of the officers and soldiers and the onlookers were all red, and many people secretly wiped their eyes. They shed tears. They were so strong in the past, but they are so fragile at this moment. Two giant dancing dragons rose and fell amidst the loud sound of gongs and drums, passing left and right of the New Third Division. Generals Dai Ziran, Yang Sixian and other generals broke away from the troops and came to Wu Ming. They stood at attention and saluted Wu Ming solemnly: "Report to the military, we are back. The New Third Division is back." Wu Ming's eyes were moist, and he randomly touched his sore nose: "Just come back. Our New Second Army is finally in order, and the troops are returning to the Phoenix Mountain Camp. , after counting the troops, they can take turns. The remaining officers and soldiers can also take a day off, take good care of their personal hygiene, and reunite with their families." Dai Ziran and Yang Si first looked at each other and said with a smile: "Don't say it yet, we really want to "Home" When all the officers and soldiers of the New Third Division returned to the Fenghuang Mountain Camp, they were greeted with an extremely sumptuous dinner, with a thousand tables of big fish and meat, which was a grand spectacle. Wu Ming led the generals of the New Second Army here to have a carnival with the New Third Division, and at the same time announced the rotation arrangements. The officers and soldiers cheered excitedly after hearing this. Wu Ming came to the main table under the rostrum and was about to raise a toast when he saw Lieutenant Colonel Zhang Dongchun, the propaganda section chief of the General Staff Office and Zhang Dongning's cousin, hurried over, and his heart was moved. Wu Ming asked a few questions in a low voice. After hearing this, his face changed drastically. The general next to him asked anxiously: "Military seat, what happened?" Wu Ming waved his hand, toasted Dai Ziran and Yang Sixian, and said with some guilt: "You just Come back, I should have had a few drinks with you, but now I have to leave due to urgent matters. I want to toast you. Dai Ziran and others even said they didn't dare to drink a glass of wine. Wu Ming didn't dare to delay, so he took Long Shao with him. Gang quickly got into the car. A burst of black smoke erupted from the Dodge car, and it sped towards the entrance of the camp, a single-family villa near the reservoir. Jiang Jingguo held his newborn daughter in one hand and held his son in the other. , walked out of the house. The Belarusian wife Jiang Fangliang next to her helped the old lady Mao Fumei and looked back at the house. This villa was the house where Jiang Jingguo's family lived in Maoliangwu. After living there for so long, the Jiang family had feelings for it. The daughter-in-law's hand persuaded: "Fang Liang, don't look anymore." "Mom, I'm a little reluctant to let go. After all, we have lived here for so long, and the neighbors are so friendly. It's a pity" Jiang Fangliang said reluctantly. The people in Maoliangwu are simple and there are not as many etiquette restrictions as in Jiang's old home in Xikou. She feels as free as returning to her hometown. After more than half a year of study, Jiang Fangliang can almost communicate with ordinary people in Chinese. " "Okay, let's load the truck." Jiang Fangliang nodded slightly to Major Zhou Zhongyuan, the chief of bodyguard sent by Chiang Kai-shek to Chiang Ching-kuo. Following Major Zhou's order, the officers and soldiers stepped forward to carry the packed things in the house to the truck. Soon After the walls were built and covered with canvas, Jiang Jingguo put down his son and put his daughter into the nurse's arms. He and Jiang Fangliang helped Mao Fumei, and then looked back at the house, his eyes full of reluctance, "You can't let go, and I can't let go either." Mao Fumei sighed, looked at Jiang Jingguo, and asked: "Jianfeng, we left Maoliangwu suddenly, did you tell General Wu Ming? " "Thishe will naturally know after we leave." Chiang Ching-kuo had a heavy expression on his face. As the New Second Army grew bigger, the good relationship between Chiang Kai-shek and Wu Ming tended to break down. As early as Chiang Kai-shek left Maoliangwu and rushed to Quzhou At the airport, he asked Chiang Ching-kuo to prepare to leave the New Second Army. Later, the assassination happened, and Chiang Ching-kuo felt that his situation became more and more embarrassing. Yesterday, Chiang Kai-shek sent his adjutant Xiang Chuanyuan on a special plane to deliver a personal letter. He couldn't delay it any longer. The reason why he didn't tell Wu Ming was because Jiang Jingguo was worried that he didn't know how to face it. After all, Wu Ming had always entrusted him with important tasks and didn't regard him as an outsider. It would be too ruthless to say goodbye now, so he took advantage of this. On the day when the New Third Division returned, Mao Fumei secretly moved his family to Nanchang - judging from Chiang Kai-shek's intention, he would serve as commissioner and security commander of the Fourth Administrative Region of Jiangxi, and then embark on the road to politics. After listening to his son's words, Mao Fumei. There was nothing much to say, so he could only make innuendo: "Jianfeng, although your father is at odds with Wu Ming, the Wu Ming family takes good care of us. Fang Liang is not familiar with Chinese, so Wu Ming and his wife often come to chat with Fang Liang." Relieve boredom. No matter what your father is like, you should be polite to General Wu Ming." "My son has remembered it. "Jiang Jingguo nodded in response. At this time, suddenlyA complaining voice came: "Brother Jianfeng, why didn't you notify me when you left?" Jiang Jingguo and his family turned around and were immediately so surprised that they couldn't open their mouths from ear to ear. Wu Ming and Long Shaogang walked in from the gate. Long Shaogang shook his head and took over Wu Ming's words: "Deputy Chief of Staff Jiang, you set off today and didn't let me see you off with the military commander. Are you afraid that we will let you go?" I'm treating you to dinner." Seeing Wu Ming coming, Mao Fumei, a mature woman, quickly took her granddaughter from the wet nurse's arms, asked Jiang Fangliang to hold her grandson, and took a final look into the house. Long Shaogang followed in rather tactfully, while Zhou Zhongyuan led the officers and soldiers away so that Wu Ming and Jiang Jingguo could communicate alone. Facing Wu Ming again, Jiang Jingguo was a little embarrassed and murmured something to explain: "Military seat, I" "No need to say anything, I understand your mood and situation." Wu Ming interrupted Jiang Jingguo with a smile and said sincerely: " Jianfeng, this time you leave the New Second Army, I feel very sad in my heart, not for anything else, I have always regarded you as my brother." Jiang Jingguo's eyes were wet, and his heart was warm and full by Wu Ming's words. of. "Okay, today I'm here to see you off. I just want to say that you are my brother. You are a brother of our New Second Army. No matter where you go from now on, don't forget that you are a brother of our New Second Army. This is your home. No matter what difficulties you encounter, the New Second Army will be your strong backing." Wu Ming patted Jiang Jingguo heavily on the shoulder.
