After Chen Cheng had whipped Chang Yuanhang more than ten times in public, he took a deep breath.
"Men, drag this Japanese spy and traitor's backer down and kill him.”
A few guards immediately went forward and dragged the injured Chang Yuanhang down.
The gun was already pointed at his door.
Chang Yuanhang wailed,"I'm innocent. I swear to the heavens." If I have anything to do with the Japanese, my entire family will die.”
Chen Cheng didn't want to kill him, and he knew that Chang Yuanhang didn't collude with the Japanese.
He just needed a scapegoat to bear all the blame.
Otherwise, everyone would suspect that he was the backer of the Japanese spies, and his future career would be bleak.
Forget about surpassing He Yingqin, it was hard to say if he could even maintain his current position.
Bai Chongxi was a very smart person. He knew when to step out and smooth things over.
He opened his mouth to persuade her,"Forget it, quit cultivation." From the looks of it, it's impossible for him to have anything to do with the Japanese. He was just a little negligent. Let's give him a chance to redeem himself."
Chen Cheng had a way out and smiled bitterly."I've embarrassed myself in front of Brother Jiansheng."
"What do you think?" he asked Xiao Yan.”
After all, Xiao Yan was the victim and had recently received Jiang Shuxuan's attention.
Xiao Yan and Chang Yuanhang didn't have any deep hatred, so there was no need to offend Chen Cheng.
"Let him go. As long as he could catch the traitor lurking in the police station.”
Only then did Chen Cheng nod and let the guards release Chang Yuanhang.
Chang Yuanhang was so grateful that he cried and kowtowed repeatedly."Thank you, Officer Chen. Thank you, Officer Bai. Thank you, Mr. Xiao. I know I was wrong. In the future, I will definitely rectify the police department seriously.”
"Find out who the traitor is in your bureau within three days," Chen Cheng said coldly. If you can't find out, I'll chop off your head myself.”
"Yes, yes, yes."
After teaching Chang Yuanhang a lesson, Chen Cheng politely invited Xiao Yan to mount his horse.
"Mr. Xiao, the chairman has invited you."
Bai Chongxi, however, cunningly pulled Xiao Yan into his military vehicle.
"I'll send Mr. Xiao to see the chairman. It just so happens that I'm also going to attend a military meeting.”
Chen Cheng had just received a favor from Bai Chongxi, so he couldn't snatch it from him. He could only watch helplessly as Bai Chongxi pulled Xiao Yan into the car.
After getting into the car, Xiao Yan turned to look at the police.
Chang Yuanhang ignored his injuries and led a group of police officers to beat up the police captain who had arrested Xiao Yan.
"Traitor dog, are you trying to kill us?”
"You even dare to capture a hero. Tell me, how much did you receive from the Japanese?”
"Kill him."
The police captain held his head and begged for mercy.
"I'm not a traitor. I'm really not a traitor. Don't hit me, help me."
Seeing that the police captain was about to be beaten to death, no one cared.
Xiao Yan finally couldn't help but stick his head out and say something fair.
"Hello, Chief Chang. This guy was not a traitor, he was just stupid.”
When the surrounding commoners heard this, they laughed out loud.
"The director inside is the traitor. He's the one who put the killer in jail to kill me."”
When Chang Yuanhang heard this, he immediately let go of the police captain who had been beaten up like a pig's head and rushed into the detention center to arrest Inspector Chen.
※※※
The car drove to the government building.
Along the way, Bai Chongxi was very good at chatting.
He looked at Xiao Yan with a smile." I heard that Mr. Xiao was injured when he retreated from Nanjing. This time, I brought a few tiger bones and two old ginseng. Although it's not a hundred years old, it's quite old." Mr. Xiao used it to soak in wine to heal his injuries. After he recovered, haha, it would strengthen his body!”
Bai Chongxi's face was full of smiles, and his smile was very friendly.
Xiao Yan accepted it and had a good impression of Bai Chongxi.
This Little Zhuge was a good person.
Bai Chongxi asked Xiao Yan about some trivial matters regarding his recovery and then expressed his gratitude.
Because Xiao Yan had rescued more than ten thousand elite soldiers from Nanjing for the Gui Army.
These were all the bones and blood of the Gui Army.
"After the battle of Nanking, the morale of our Gui army soared," Bai Chongxi said enthusiastically. Many of our brothers respect you very much. He said that you were the current Yue Fei. They all want to fight the Japanese with you."
As Xiao Yan listened, he suddenly understood.
Bai Chongxi was hinting that he wanted to recruit him into his Gui Faction.
"Haha, Mr. Xiao, you're really amazing. Even the trump card of the Japanese army, the Sixth Division, was defeated by you. It was said that the commander of the Central China dispatch army was so angry that he vomited blood. It was really satisfying.”
"I heard that Mr. Xiao liked to lead our Gui soldiers to fight with the Japanese in the streets of Nanjing. Is that right?"”
Xiao Yan: " Yes, your soldiers are indeed very strong. They can climb walls and walk on roofs as if they were walking on flat ground. They are very mobile.”
"That's because of your leadership, Mr. Xiao." Bai Chongxi nodded. A fool like me can't do it. In the Battle of Songhu, sixty thousand of our Kwangsi men were wiped out. Sigh, we need a general like you.”
Bai Chongxi, nicknamed Little Zhuge, was not stupid.
It was just that he was not used to the Japanese style at first.
During the Battle of Songhu, the Gui army fought with the Japanese in three days with simple equipment and fought six divisions.
However, they also killed more than 10,000 Japanese soldiers.
Bai Chongxi kept praising Xiao Yan and finally said what he was thinking.
"Mr. Xiao, to tell you the truth. Old Jiang is narrow-minded and can be close to anyone. You are not his direct descendant. If you follow him, you won't be able to get an important position and have no way out.”
Xiao Yan was troubled by the complicated factional struggles of the National Party.
"Where does Chief Bai think my way out is?”
"Mr. Xiao, you are brave and good at fighting. That is indeed valuable." Bai Chongxi chuckled. But what I value more is your character! You risked your life to save hundreds of thousands of people in Nanjing from the Japanese butcher's knife. You value friendship, distinguish between kindness and hatred, and never forget your roots. Delin and I like officers like you very much!”
"No, no, I'm just doing my duty as a soldier."”
Xiao Yan continued to be humble.
Bai Chongxi extended an olive branch." I hit it off with you, Mr. Xiao. Why don't I make it clear today? You're not a direct descendant of the Central Army. Old Jiang won't put you in an important position. I'm sure.
"But if you can join our Gui Army, I can still give you the position of a commander." In the future, he would be all-powerful and achieve the achievements of a good man? Transfer to our Gui Army and work with us. How about it?？”
"Teacher?" Xiao Yan was shocked.
Even though he had a hunch, he did not expect Bai Chongxi to be so generous as to send a teacher away.
"I'll think about it."”
He had a rough idea in his heart.
Although Bai Chongxi appeared to be joking, he was secretly Jiang Gong's political enemy.
To be honest, she really didn't dare to rely on him.
The soldiers of the Gui Army were indeed not bad, and it would be good if they could lead a division.
But the problem was that if he agreed to Bai Chongxi's request, he would offend Principal Jiang, and the consequences would be unimaginable.
What a headache.
It was better to live in seclusion for eight years.
Bai Chongxi saw that he did not agree, so he did not force him.
"In any case, I'll leave the position of teacher for you. The Gui Army welcomes you at any time."
As they were talking, the car had already arrived at the entrance of the government building.
The two of them got out of the car and entered the government building to attend the military meeting.
Xiao Yan was the only low-ranking officer who attended the meeting today.
In the conference hall, all the high-ranking generals were looking at him curiously.
Then, they went through the meeting process.
Principal Jiang, who was hosting the meeting, received Xiao Yan, awarded him a medal, and praised him for being a military idol that boosted morale.
Then, the high-ranking generals shook hands with Xiao Yan.
。。。。。
。。。。
。。。
。。
In any case, it was just a formality for the day.
It seemed like Principal Jiang was right. He had no intention of promoting Xiao Yan.
After a long meeting, the sky was almost dark.
Xiao Yan was sleepy.
After the meeting, Xiao Yan was exhausted when he returned to the hotel.
I really don't know why so many people like to be politicians.
When he got home, he opened the door and saw Xiao Yan lying on the bed, fast asleep.
She didn't notice that Ding Yuting and her sister were also lying on the bed.
