Chapter 7 Phoenix and Pheasant

A small-scale Sino-Japanese war that took place in the "ghost house" ended in a tragic victory for the Chinese side, and Ouyang Yun was lucky to be the last oriole to appear.Thinking about it afterwards, he regretted not attacking earlier and sacrificing a few compatriots in vain, but thinking again that these compatriots came for the purpose of killing him, it was a good reason for self-comfort.

The car at the door belonged to the Japanese, and what Ouyang Yun was most worried about was that some of them escaped and exposed the secret of the "ghost house".Inquire carefully and confirm that it was parked there early in the morning. Think about the five big men on the other side, who happened to be squeezed into a car, and there should be no one left last night.There is nothing to be polite with the Japanese, so he naturally accepted this old Ford with a smile.

The neighbors around have heard the name of the ghost house for a long time, and they are very worried about him, a young man who dares to serve ghosts alone. The kind uncle and aunt suggested that a master should be invited to exorcise the evil spirits, and they introduced a bunch of fake monks and Taoist priests in a mess. Ouyang Yun deliberately joked , Tell them: There are indeed ghosts in the house, but I have discussed it with them, and everyone should not violate the river water and live in peace.Many of the uncles and aunts were frightened by the "hanging ghost" played by Bai Liusu. Their old faces turned pale when they heard it. "Young man, are you still a virgin?" It made him dumbfounded.

The car couldn't enter the yard, so Ouyang Yun drove it into an alley and hid it. When he returned, he saw Bai Liusu sleeping soundly, so he didn't wake her up.What happened last night obviously hit her hard. There were still tears on her face, and the sheets under her cheeks were wet. It seemed that even in her dream, she still cried for a long time.Looking at the scar on her face, and thinking about how to remove it like picking up an earthworm, he sighed softly.

God is always unfair, or the world is impermanent, so before the beginning of the Qing Dynasty, the land of China has always regarded itself as a kingdom of heaven, and the emperor was called the Son of Heaven. But since the end of the Qing Dynasty, the world has turned upside down, not to mention the so-called barbarians in the West. This small country can even ride on the head of a giant to do its best.If Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, Emperor Taizong of Tang Dynasty, and even Genghis Khan and others had spirits in the sky, I don’t know how they would feel!
The girl in front of me, before there was no scar on her face, she didn't know how beautiful she was. She was envious of many young girls and caused a lot of lovesickness from the opposite sex, but a scar made all of them go away from her. Now she is called a girl without salt, It is estimated that even the original unsalted girl has an opinion: It is good that we are ugly, but it is the reason of parents, what is she?Poor storage the day after tomorrow.

Putting the soy milk and steamed stuffed bun beside the bed, he was about to leave when Bai Liusu opened his eyes.

He said softly, "Promise me not to run around, and I will help you untie the rope."

Her eyes moved away from the soy milk, the bewilderment and sadness inside disappeared, only deliberate hatred remained: "I won't run around, but I will kill you!"

"Yes, as long as you are capable enough," he helped her untie the rope, gathered all the corpses in the main room, and then covered the corpses of those compatriots with the sheets on his own bed.Then, he put the sack and the wooden box back into the cellar, and closed the closet.

Bai Liusu watched all this coldly, put his left hand in his waist several times, and finally took it out again. Finally, with a faint sigh, he picked up the bowl with his left hand, picked up a bun with chopsticks in his right hand, and started breakfast.

"We buried them at night," Ouyang Yun sat down on a chair, quietly watched her finish her breakfast, and said.

Bai Liusu's eyes fell on Shen Jian's body, her eyelids became more and more red and swollen, she rubbed vigorously, trying not to shed tears.

Ouyang Yun looked at the tears on the bed sheet, thought that women are really made of water, and the tears were as deep as the sea, so he stood up and walked out.At this time, letting her cry for a while will be beneficial to her mental health.

"Thank you—for the breakfast," Bai Liusu said, and closed the door with a bang.

Ouyang Yun smiled, more confident in winning the grand prize - he was determined to get the money, not to buy a super computer, nor to build Hope Primary School, but just to drive away the Japanese.

After killing a few Japanese in the battle early this morning, he finally understood the true intentions of the two old men, and finally understood what he should do and what he could do.

Lying on the bed, he didn't feel sleepy at all. He took out his handheld computer and checked it slowly.

First adjust the search date. On April 1935, 4, press the confirm button, and the cultural and historical records in the form of a log appear on the screen. At this time, Beiping, as a special city, is still in the hands of the Nationalist Government, and Jiang Xiaoxian is the head of the garrison. The Third Regiment of the Gendarmerie.However, as the "He Mei Agreement" is about to be signed, the Third Military Police Regiment, the First Army of the Northeast Army stationed in Tianjin, the Second Division of the Central Army stationed in other places in Hebei, and the No. 25 Fifth Division will accompany all Kuomintang agencies. At that time, Song Zheyuan's 20th Army will enter Hebei at the invitation of the Beiping Army Branch and become the de facto master of the Pingjin area.From then until the July 29th Incident, Peiping will gain a rare period of peace.

At the beginning of the July [-]th Incident, the Japanese army did not have an advantage in the Beiping area. If Zhao Dengyu's troops were able to wipe out the besieged Japanese army at that time, the Marco Polo Bridge would not have fallen. So which fork in history will it take?

According to the historical materials recorded in the notebook, the Pingjin War triggered by the July 29th Incident ended when the 29th Army of the Kuomintang withdrew from Hebei and gave up Pingjin.To sum it up in detail, China's failure was certainly due to its strength, but the decisive role can be attributed to two people. One is Song Zheyuan, the commander of the [-]th Army, and the other is Pan Yugui, the chief of Song's political affairs department. .

History gave Song a very high evaluation-the famous anti-Japanese general said that he was very accomplished in military affairs and governance of people's livelihood, but this is not always the case.In the Battle of Xifengkou, the 29th Army did show its strength and prestige. At that time, it is not an exaggeration to call Song Zheyuan a famous anti-Japanese general.But since he entered Chahar, the aura of this famous anti-Japanese general has faded a bit.

However, after carefully reading the growth history of Song and the 29th Army, it is not difficult to understand why he has such a change. After the 29th Army became an army in the Central Plains War, it was the recombination of the disabled Northwest Army.It is precisely because of the experience of the Central Plains War that Song deeply understood the suffering that the civil war brought to the country and the people, so at the beginning of the establishment of the army, he clearly put forward the slogan of "no civil war, and the guns are open", which was unanimously supported by all the generals under his command.Afterwards, Generalissimo Jiang attempted several times to mobilize the 29th Army to go south to suppress the Communists, but Song shirked them all for various reasons.And precisely because he was extremely afraid of Jiang's tricks of turning his hands into clouds and his hands into rain in the melee of warlords, Song always had doubts about the National Government he was at the helm. This affected many of his important decisions in the future. The main reason why Peiping made false claims with the Japanese during the period when he was in power.

Since it was not Chiang’s direct lineage, when the 29th Army was first formed, it encountered many difficulties in terms of military expenses and equipment, and its life was extremely miserable. When marching, I am afraid that the people will see them as bandits during the day and frighten the people.As a result, the cold weapon such as the broadsword became the necessary equipment of the 29th Army, so the 29th Army's broadsword combat method was not so much Song Zheyuan's innovation as it was his helpless move.However, the 29th Army of the Xifengkou Great Victory gained a great reputation with a big sword, which is quite a miracle.

The situation of the 29th Army did not improve until it moved to Chahar in 1932. Song Zheyuan was appointed as the chairman of Chahar Province, and the 29th Army finally got a place to recuperate.

Half a year later, the Great Wall Anti-Japanese War broke out. The 29th Army fought against the Japanese Suzuki and Hattori Brigade at Xifengkou. They used broadswords and grenades to fight against the advanced Japanese weapons. They wiped out 29 enemies and became famous in the first battle. However, they also suffered more than 6 casualties. hurt.However, because the People's Anti-Japanese Allied Army organized by Feng Yuxiang in Chahar was banned by Generalissimo Jiang and had to be disbanded, the 30th Army had to regain its strength and gain a new life-the whole army expanded into four divisions with more than [-] people. It also received a large amount of weapons and equipment from the Anti-League, including more than [-] mountain artillery from the Tang Yulin Department of the former Northeast Army, and this has truly become a military force that can influence the situation in North China.

That period of time was also the happiest day for Song Zheyuan and the 29th Army. As the news film recording the 29th Army’s battle at Xifengkou was broadcast in major cities across the country, the composer Mai Xin also specially composed "Big Sword March" for this purpose. The 29th Army The Broadsword Team and Song Zheyuan became famous all over the world.

Precisely because of the large gap between before and after, Song deeply realized the role of a piece of land in stabilizing an army, so he lived with his tail between the direct line of the Kuomintang and the Japanese, hoping to keep his own territory.

However, people are not as good as heaven.The ambitions of the Japanese are too great, and the national government is really unbearable.

After the July 29th Incident, Song hoped for a political solution so as to keep the [-]th Army’s last territory. Therefore, despite the obvious military superiority, he still blindly compromised and sent his staff Pan Yugui and Xiangyue, the then commander of the Japanese North China Garrison Qing Division communicates.

However, Pan Yugui was an out-and-out traitor. He betrayed Song at a critical moment, so that the deployment of the 29th Army's troops was completely controlled by the Japanese army.Therefore, in the ensuing Battle of Nanwan, the 29th Army was always passive and lagged behind in recruiting, and defeat in the North China War was inevitable...

"Pan Yugui! Pan Yugui..." Ouyang Yun whispered the traitor's name several times, feeling murderous in his heart.If Pan Yugui is killed now, will the history of the 29th Army be rewritten?No, it's not that simple. As long as Song Zheyuan wants to "political solution", there will be a second and third Pan Yugui.Kill Song Zheyuan?This is not a result that I, a little butterfly, can bear. If the 29th Army splits up, then——

He turned off the computer, took out a cigarette and lit it, took two puffs, and then coughed violently.This smoke is now a street stall, and it is incomparable with similar products in the 21st century. It chokes to death.

Fiercely shaking the smoke away, Ouyang Yun began to smile wryly: Why do you think so much, take one step at a time, a little butterfly, what do you expect it to do?sleep!

"Brother, I often hear you read Li Bai's "Thoughts in a Quiet Night". I have never understood it very well. Now, now I understand...the moonlight in front of the bed is suspected to be frost on the ground. Look up at the bright moon and look down at your hometown. Brother, you Did you expect such a day long ago, we wanderers from Sichuan will have to die in another land after all... I will bury you here, and you will be able to see the moonlight often. Fortunately, you are accompanied by mice and blind bears, but Leave me alone..." Bai Liusu sat on a piece of fresh soil in front of the window, looked up at the moon in the night sky, which was rounder than last night, and said faintly.

Ouyang Yun opened his eyes in a daze, shook his heavy head, touched the bed with his right hand, found nothing, was startled, and sat up.The moonlight was very bright, through the window, the objects on the bed could be seen faintly, and everything was missing, except for the laptop.

"Why did I sleep for so long? It must be the fault of the girl without salt. Hey, why am I so careless? This girl was born as a female ghost!" Thinking of this, he felt so angry that he didn't even wear shoes, and jumped up. When I arrived at the door, I heard her whisper, I thought that I didn't expect this woman to like Fengyue, and remembering that she was hurting, I sighed, walked to the gate, and sat down on the threshold.

There are three new graves in the yard. There are small wooden signboards standing in front of the graves, and paper streamers are floating on the graves. Under the moonlight, they seem to have spiritual energy.This yard was originally called a "ghost house", but now there are three new graves, but the house lives up to its name.He looked at the main room, which was empty, and was a little surprised. He asked, "Where are those Japanese devils?"

"In the latrine!"

"The latrine, big sister, you are cruel enough!" Ouyang Yun gave a thumbs up and walked towards the latrine, thinking that it must be buried, and it would be troublesome if it was exposed.When we got there, we didn't see the body. "Is it really thrown into the latrine?"

"kindness."

"Is this latrine very deep?"

"Became transformed by me."

"Cremation?"

"The bone erosion powder I used, would you like some?"

"Bone erosion powder?" This seems to be something that only exists in martial arts novels. Ouyang Yun always thought that it was invented by the author, but now he knows that this vicious thing actually exists, and he shivered, "No, no, You can keep it for yourself. By the way, where is my notebook?"

"What notebook?"

"It's just a plastic box."

"I took it."

"Oh." Ouyang Yun breathed a sigh of relief after confirming this for some reason, "Give it back to me. If you are interested, I can teach you how to use it."

"That, isn't it very precious?" Bai Liusu's voice was rustling and magnetic, and it sounded very comfortable, although it always gave people a cold feeling.

"Of course, it's a priceless treasure!" Ouyang Yun said proudly, and regretted it immediately after he finished speaking, because he saw her pick it out from the soil next to the grave where the wooden sign said "Big Brother Shen Jian's Tomb", wiped it and put it in his arms inside.

"My god, whoring me?! Fortunately, I'm not a big girl, otherwise my stomach would be enlarged by you!"

"What nonsense are you talking about?! Do you still want this thing?" Bai Liusu was so angry that the earthworm on his face began to squirm, very murderous!
"No more." Not knowing what she wanted to exchange, Ouyang Yun first lowered the price.

"No more?" Bai Liusu blinked, a little surprised.

Ouyang Yun turned around and walked into the room, "Hey, I've slept for such a long time," grinning, revealing two rows of big white teeth, thinking that he wanted to deceive me, hmph, no way.

"Then I'll throw it into the latrine," Bai Liusu said lightly, and moved lightly.

Ouyang Yun was shocked, "No" blurted out, turned around and saw the girl's mouth curled up, showing the first smile since meeting, he knew he had been fooled, he couldn't help but shook his head with a wry smile and said: "I really can't tell, you are actually a good negotiator , tell me, in exchange for what?"

"Help me send all the sacks and wooden boxes to Nanjing," Bai Liusu said as he took out his notebook, and added, "If you don't promise me, throw it into the latrine immediately."

The notebook can't get into the water, if it is really thrown into the latrine, it will be useless.In desperation, he said, "I promise you."

"Well, I'll give you this box when you deliver the things."

"Really?" He grinned, flicked his right hand, and the steel needle flew out.

Seeing his smile, Bai Liusu felt something was wrong, and she dodged back quickly, but she was still a little slower. A white light pierced her waist, and she only had time to swear the word "despicable", and she immediately fell limp and lost. perception.

A few minutes later, Bai Liusu opened his eyes and found himself lying on the bed, moving his hands and feet freely. To his surprise, he jumped out of bed and felt that the weapon was still there. Find my weapon.Holding a dagger in his right hand and a throwing knife in his left, he walked slowly to the window.

The night was getting darker, the moon was getting brighter, and the insects were singing heavily. Under the moonlight, incense was burning in front of the three new graves. Ouyang Yun stood in front of Shen Jian's grave, respecting the military salute: "...to be a hero in life, Death is also a ghost. Brother Shen Jian, you can rest assured that my younger sister will be taken care of by me, and your unfinished business will be completed by me, so go all the way!"

Bai Liusu originally hated him, and was willing to kill him alive, but seeing him like this, she became a little confused: "I will be a hero in life, and I will be a ghost in death—" she groaned softly, feeling a little bewildered for a moment.

Ouyang Yun paid tribute to the martyr sincerely, and didn't have too many convoluted thoughts. Seeing her, he said sincerely: "Miss Shen, I'm really sorry I lied to you just now, but this box is really important to me, so— —”

"My surname is Bai, not Shen. Your name is Ouyang Yun, isn't it?"

"Yes."

"Does what you just said to my brother mean?"

"Of course, people can bully people, but they can't bully ghosts. Besides, Brother Shen is still a ghost!"

"Okay, then please send these sacks and wooden boxes to Nanjing," Bai Liusu said, looking at him without blinking, like two moonlights on the river, very clear and cold .

Ouyang Yun smiled, and sighed more and more in his heart: If there was no earthworm, just such a pair of eyes would fascinate many men to death? "Miss Bai, I think you misunderstood me. I don't think Big Brother Shen's career is just to send these things to Nanjing. Don't you know his grand ideals today? You've been with him for so many years."

Bai Liusu thought for a while, the color in her eyes darkened and brightened again, and her tone became cold: "Are you trying to play tricks? Or did you fancy those wealth—" Her voice suddenly became sharp: "If it wasn't for you How could my elder brother die while spying on these wealth?! Evil thief, taste my brother’s life!” He squatted down, jumped out of the window with both feet and rushed towards him, his left hand shook in mid-air, and the flying knife shot at his heart , followed by poking up with the dagger in his right hand.

The distance between the two was only a graveyard distance, Ouyang Yun was caught off guard, and was stabbed by a throwing knife and a dagger at the same time.If he didn't have a bulletproof vest on his body, there would probably be two more holes right away - even so, his chest hurts badly, which really aroused his anger - no matter how good-tempered he is, he can't stand the woman again and again He couldn't help shouting: "You woman is too unreasonable!" While she was in a daze, he grabbed her right wrist, bent his left knee, and pressed it against her abdomen.

Bai Liusu obviously didn't expect that he would not be able to poke him with all his strength, and the two legendary terms "vajra mask and iron cloth shirt" flashed in his mind, and he was stunned for a moment, forgetting to resist.

Ouyang Yun was not polite to her, he put her on the ground, kicked the dagger flying, quickly pulled out the belt, tied her hands up, and said: "I'll requisition the stolen money!"

Bai Liusu sat on the ground and looked at him bitterly: "You kill me, otherwise, one day, I will take revenge."

"Stupid woman, if you are not afraid that your elder brother will die underground, you can try it."

Thinking of Shen Jian, the girl fell silent. She was just on the edge of a corner for a while, or she was hit too hard, so she didn't want to use her brain too much. Thinking about it deeply, she also knew that the enemy of her elder brother was actually dead.

"Woman, you have two choices now, leave, or follow me to kill the Japanese."

The business woman raised her head and looked at her with complicated eyes: "Which part do you belong to? The Communist Party?"

Ouyang Yun shook his head and asked, "Are you from the Kuomintang?"

The woman hesitated for a while, and said: "The Blue Shirts Society Beiping branch agent 'Feng', what about you?" She thought: Could it be a colleague?
"Blue Shirts?" Ouyang Yun blinked a few times, rushed into his room, and a few minutes later, after obtaining detailed information from the computer, he came out and said, "It's funny, didn't you use the idea of ​​'overcoming the crisis of Japanese invasion and stopping the corruption of the Kuomintang'?" "Are you already appointed? Why are you now a thief?! 'Blue Shirt Club', I said, how come everyone is dressed in blue clothes and blue trousers."

"You are the thief, we are raising money for the 'Second Revolution'."

"Cutting down the vassals to unify the country, rearmament to resist the war, smoking ban, anti-corruption, revitalizing the countryside—"

Hearing him casually read out the purpose of the "Second Revolution", Bai Liusu was quite surprised, and asked with some trepidation: "Who are you?"

Ouyang Yun touched his chin, and there were some hairy beards growing there.The information about the "Blue Shirts Society" in the computer gave him a good impression. If the "Blue Shirts Society" can really become big in the Kuomintang, it may be a good thing for the Japanese war. The problem is that the "Blue Shirts Society" was born in Germany. The "Black Shirt Party" advocates leader worship, and Chairman Chiang has too much influence in it. If he cooperates with the "Blue Shirts Club", will he indirectly help Chiang Kai-shek?
Bai Liusu looked at him eagerly, and suddenly remembered that Shen Jian had said that the headquarters would send someone over to accept this batch of property recently. Could it be that Ouyang Yun is the special commissioner?So he suddenly chanted: "But sadly, Kyushu will not be seen."

This is a poem from Lu You's "Shower", which is the secret code they agreed upon. If Ouyang Yun is really a special commissioner, he should answer "Don't forget to tell Nai Weng about family sacrifices". The "Blue Clothes Society" chose these two lines of poems as the linking code, which can be described as well-intentioned. If it is an impostor, most of them will follow the original line and answer "Wang Shibei set the Central Plains Day", and the smarter ones may answer "Death is the original knowledge." Everything is empty".

Ouyang Yun won the lottery again. Having participated in the special anti-espionage training, he immediately realized that there was something in Bai Liusu's words. However, he forgot Du Fu's poem. But it was the last sentence: "Don't forget to tell Nai Weng about family sacrifices."

When the code was matched, Bai Liusu, who had been in sorrow all along, showed a faint joy again, "Pheasant!"

pheasant? !Upon hearing this code name, Ouyang Yun was almost overwhelmed.Hey, consider yourself unlucky, he said: "Phoenix?!" He stepped forward, helped her untie the belt, and helped her up.

"I wish you had come a few days earlier," Bai Liusu said melancholy, looking quietly at Shen Jian's tomb.

Patting her on the shoulder, he said: "My condolences, the revolution has not yet succeeded, comrades still need to work hard! There are more things waiting for us to do."

"Where's your certificate? Check it out, and I'll leave it to you here."

"lost."

"Lost it?" Bai Liusu turned to look at him, her eyes widened.

Ouyang Yun didn't panic, and tentatively said, "You can send a telegram back to the headquarters to confirm."

Bai Liusu frowned. In North China, Tianjin is the main area of ​​activity. There are radio stations there, but there are no radio stations in Beiping.She doubted his identity again.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Ouyang Yun hurriedly said: "Chen Jiayao, you have met her before. When she arrived in Beiping, she was kidnapped. In order to save her, she ended up..."

She had heard about this, thought for a while and asked: "You came here, did the leader explain anything?"

Ouyang Yun didn't answer. There is such a rule in the anti-espionage manual: When you are not sure whether a question is true or false, try to keep silent.

This question was indeed used by Bai Liusu to continue to test him, and the "Blue Shirts Club" had no leader at all.Maybe it's because she hasn't recovered from the grief of losing her beloved, maybe she's too tired, so instead of entangled with Ouyang Yun's identity, she decides to leave.The reason why she joined the "Blue Clothes Club" was originally because of Shen Jian, but now that Shen Jian is dead, she has no reason to stay. "Pheasant, I leave this place to you," she said, and walked into the room.
