Chapter 17 The Death of Xu Shuzheng

Chen Zikun said with a gaze: "Is there no third choice?"

Lin Wenjing said seriously: "My mother who cooks is already in her forties. She is a widow and is not bad..."

Chen Zikun was so happy. This person was different when he went to college and saw the world. Compared to before, Lin Wenjing was much more courageous and was no longer afraid of talking to him. But Wang's mother was in trouble and was shot while lying down.

Although the winter in Beijing is cold, the heating is also very strong. There is a charcoal-fired cast iron stove in the house, which is as warm as spring. Lin Wenjing is wearing a tight sweater. Although it is not as turbulent as the waves, it is also exquisite. Chen Zikun couldn't help but think of those days six years ago and shouted softly: "Miss Lin."

As soon as Lin Wenjing looked up, she was held in her arms by Chen Zikun. The breath of a mature man rushed to her nose, making her heart beat faster, but she was panicked, and her arms were pushed out like a frightened kitten.

Fortunately, Chen Zikun did not make any further moves. He only kissed Lin Wenjing's smooth forehead and said, "I'll go to the doorman to build a shop with Uncle Zhang. You have a good rest and you will have to go to school tomorrow."

Lin Wenjing felt lost, but was embarrassed to speak, so she could only watch Chen Zikun leave.

...

Chen Zikun still has important things to do. He did not go directly to Feng Yuxiang to give him advice to get rid of Xu Shuzheng, but went to find his old acquaintance, Xu Guodong from the Investigation Team of the Beijing Police Department.

The king flag changed from the top of Beijing. In just two years, several groups of people were changed. Cao Kun, Feng Yuxiang, Zhang Zuolin and Duan Qirui. After a while, the police system in the capital did not make a big move. Xu Guodong was still his detective captain, but because there was no one on the top, he had not been on the spot for many years.

Chen Zikun's sudden visit surprised Xu Guodong and was a little flattered. Mr. Chen went to Beijing in a disguise and was the first to come to find him. How much does this value?

"Old Xu, I have something to do and ask you for help." Chen Zikun went straight to the point.

"Say, as long as I can do it, I will definitely do it." Xu Guodong was unambiguous.

"I want to know Xu Shuzheng's whereabouts, the more detailed the better." Chen Zikun said.

Xu Guodong suddenly laughed: "Marrior Chen, you have found the right person. The detective team is staring at him recently."

"Whose orders are taken?" Chen Zikun had already guessed the result.

Xu Guodong said: "The military, police and military personnel in Beijing are now being dispatched by the Gyeonggi Garrison Command. Lu Zhonglin is the commander, and it was his order to keep an eye on Xu Shuzheng. Then again, what are you going to do?"

Chen Zikun said: "I want to chat with General Xu."

Xu Guodong is a wise man, and he doesn't need to say too thoroughly. He smiled and said, "It's difficult. Xu Shuzheng lives in Jizhao Hutong Mansion, and is protected by the garrison headquarters. If you want to chat with him, you must get the approval of the headquarters. You cannot show up. This matter is really difficult to deal with."

Chen Zikun knew that even if Feng Yuxiang wanted to kill Xu Shuzheng, he would not attack in Beijing, nor would he be charged with the crime of killing important officials in the country. If he wanted to kill, he had to find a wonderful opportunity to attack.

Thinking of this, he said, "Old Xu, don't make things difficult for you. Just provide his whereabouts. As long as he leaves Beijing, you can call this number."

After handing over a note, Xu Guodong took out a foreign fire and burned it to ashes, and sweared: "Whenever there is any movement, call me immediately."

...

Jizhao Hutong, Duan Qirui’s mansion, the study room is full of fire, Xu Shuzheng and Duan Qirui talked in a clinging manner, Duan Qirui said: "Yes, I told you not to come to Beijing, you insist on coming. Feng Yuxiang has a grudge against you. If he is not good for you, I will not be able to save you without soldiers or generals."

Xu Shuzheng smiled and said, "I know there is a tiger in the mountain, but I tend to go to Tiger Mountain. Besides, Feng Yuxiang is not a tiger. I have something he urgently needs."

Duan Qiruiqi said: "What?"

Xu Shuzheng said: "Northern National Army is the most powerful now, and even Guo Songling has taken the banner of the Northeast National Army. I have a Japanese friend living in Dalian who sent a telegram saying that Zhang Zuolin's defeat was already revealed, and he loaded Fengtian's property to Dalian. After Zhang Zuolin stepped down, the north was Feng Yuxiang's world, but his qualifications were not enough to live in the country and would inevitably be besieged by all parties. Even the great powers did not like him. Therefore, although Feng Yuxiang is now strong, he is the one who needs help the most."

After pausing, Xu Shuzheng lowered his voice and said, "This time I traveled to Europe and the United States, and signed a secret agreement with Mussolini in Italy. Italy assisted me with 5 million arms. With this batch of arms, whoever I support will win."

Duan Qirui was stunned: "What happened?"

Xu Shuzheng smiled: "At present, our Anhui clan has no soldiers, so he has to start a business with the help of others. When I was in Shanghai, I also talked to Sun Chuanfang. He is also very interested in Italian arms. We have a trump card, and we are waiting to sell, and it depends on who they paid for the higher price."

Duan Qirui said: "Feng Yuxiang is upside down, you can't believe it. Besides, the situation outside the pass is not very clear. Guo Songling has always been radical. The Japanese don't like him. If the Kwantung Army intervenes in the war, you can turn the situation around at any time. If Zhang recovers from his vitality, Feng Yuxiang will suffer. The matter of your cooperation with him will definitely be ruined, and you will be in danger again."

Xu Shuzheng said emotionally: "Teacher is in Beijing, how can I not come? Besides, I was ordered by the government to go abroad for inspection and should come back to report. Whoever dares to say no, I don't believe him Feng Yuxiang dares to take the blame and kill me Xu Shuzheng. Humph, even the international community will not spare him by then."

Duan Qirui also moved and said in tears: "Yuzheng, you are still full of energy, but I am old and am preparing to step down as an apartment. Let them make trouble in the world."

Xu Shuzheng persuaded him for a while, and the secretary came in to report: "The recent war situation in Northeast China, the Japanese Kwantung Army intervened, and Guo Songling and his wife were defeated and killed."

Duan Qirui was shocked: "No, the situation is about to change again now."

Xu Shuzheng was also shocked and said, "Zhang Yuting must have signed a treason agreement and handed over the rights and interests of the three eastern provinces to the Japanese."

Duan Qirui said: "It goes without saying that Guo Songling was defeated and died, and Feng Yuxiang was in danger. In this case, you naturally would not cooperate with him, and then your value would be gone. Feng Yuxiang would kill you at any time."

Xu Shuzheng was not afraid at all, Duan Qirui tried to persuade him, but in the end Xu Shuzheng agreed to him, "Okay, I'll listen to the teacher. If a gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall, I will return to Shanghai immediately."

...

At the Six Kingdoms Hotel, Li Yaoting received a call from Xu Guodong. When he learned that Xu Shuzheng had sent someone to the railway station to contact the special car, he hurriedly notified Chen Zikun.

Chen Zikun said: "We are weak and can only assassinate in Beijing, and we must not let the tiger return to the mountain."

Li Yaoting said: "What can I do if I can't keep him?"

Chen Zikun said: "I have my own way."

He quickly found Xu Guodong and asked him to secretly submit a letter to Duan Qirui.

Xu Guodong has a wide connection in the military and police circle in Beijing, and this small thing can still be done. Soon a note was placed on Duan Qirui's desk in Jizhao Hutong, with eight words on it: "You must not go again, you will die if you go."

Duan Qirui hurriedly sent someone to send the note to Xu Shuzheng. At this time, Xu Shuzheng had already boarded the special train. He looked at it and laughed it off. He advised him to think twice. Xu Shuzheng said: "I have been on guard for a long time. I borrowed a team of guards from the British Embassy. I expected that they would not dare to do anything randomly."

The special train departs on time and heads towards Tianjin. Chen Zikun received the news and sighed regretfully: "Xu Shuzheng will inevitably cause troubles and the country will be in chaos again."

Li Yaoting said: "We must not let him go. Let's drive a car and chase him to Tianjin and kill him!"

Chen Zikun immediately agreed and quickly rented two Ford cars at the car shop and galloped towards Tianjin along the highway.

At the same time, the news of Xu Shuzheng leaving Beijing was reported to the Gyeonggi garrison commander Lu Zhonglin. He immediately reported to Feng Yuxiang and advised him: "Commander-in-Chief, let's do it!"

Feng Yuxiang hesitated: "Xu Shuzheng is just a commander who is barely responsible. Killing him is not only useless, but also destroys my reputation. It is inappropriate."

Lu Zhonglin said: "As soon as Xiao Xu left, he will be troublesome from now on. If the commander-in-chief does not want to bear the infamy, Husband has a plan to arrange for engineers to bury landmines and blow up the entire train. If there is no evidence of death, who knows it is our move."

Feng Yuxiang said: "It's ridiculous. If something happens in Beijing and Tianjin, it will naturally be counted on me."

Lu Zhonglin said: "Then let's kill him with Lu Chengwu's hand."

Feng Yuxiang said: "It is always safe to do things, and you can only be foolproof."

Lu Zhonglin said: "Don't worry, Commander-in-Chief, I'll deal with it."

At night, the special train was still staggering on the railway line. It was originally a three-hour journey from Beijing to Tianjin, but the railway was busy and often had to wait for the personnel carrier to make way for the troops to wait for a long time. The attendants on the special train could not bear it and protested to the station many times. The staff of the National Army Transportation Command learned that this was General Xu Shuzheng's special train and did not dare to neglect it. They hurriedly notified Zhang Zhijiang, the general stationed in Langfang.

After some coordination, the special train finally arrived in Langfang at 1:00 a.m. Zhang Zhijiang sent someone to ask Xu Shuzheng to get off the car, but was rejected. After a while, the military judge led a team of military police to board the car and forced Xu Shuzheng down. All the entourages were arrested, and the 17 British soldiers who were on guard were disarmed.

On a cold winter night, Xu Shuzheng was detained in the British-American Tobacco Company warehouse next to the station, and two fully armed National Army soldiers stood at the door.

Xu Shuzheng paced back and forth in the warehouse, knowing that the situation was not good, Feng Yuxiang was finally going to take action. Was he just dead silently?

No, you must not die in Langfang for nothing! Xu Shuzheng looked up suddenly and saw a window. He made up his mind and brought goods into a ladder and climbed up.

Outside Langfang Station, two cars rushed towards us, and the bright headlights pierced the darkness. These were Chen Zikun, Li Yaoting and others who followed him.

"Look, the special train!" Li Yaoting said, pointing to the train parked in the station.

Chen Zikun said, "There are soldiers guarding the train. It seems that Xu Shuzheng has been intercepted, which is good, which saves us trouble."

Li Yaoting said: "It's a pity that I can't kill my enemies with my hands. I have undertaken the project of the Ministry of Transport before and I'm very familiar with Langfang. I'll find a place to live first. The weather is so cold."

The group drove away from the station and drove on the empty road. Chen Zikun's eyes were sharp-eyed and saw a figure on the side of the road, wearing only pajamas, and he could not avoid it when he saw the car coming.

"It's not such a coincidence." Chen Zikun urgently ordered the car to stop. The car stopped suddenly. The figure ran away. Chen Zikun became more convinced of his judgment and took out **** and chased after him.

The man ran hundreds of meters on the snow field, and finally panted with exhaustion. He stood with his knees and bowed to his feet. When he saw Chen Zikun's face, he actually smiled: "Chen Zikun, I didn't expect that we would meet again. Is Feng Yuxiang sent you?"

This person is Xu Shuzheng.

Chen Zikun put away his gun: "Encourt Xu, don't be fine. Feng Yuxiang is Feng Yuxiang, I am me. What did I say last time? If you make trouble and get caught by me again, you won't be as polite as last time."

Xu Shuzheng smiled and said, "Kill me? OK, I can buy my head for 100,000 yuan. I can really avoid my soulmate. Chen Zikun traveled thousands of miles to Langfang to kill me, so he can be regarded as my soulmate."

Chen Zikun said: "I killed you not for personal grudges, but for the sake of the country."

Xu Shuzheng said: "Warlords compete for power and profit, harming the country and the people. I, Xu Shuzheng, still thinks that I want to do something for the country and the nation."

Chen Zikun said: "Yes, I admit that you are different from them, but it is precisely because of this that your destructiveness is greater. Your era has ended. General, what else do you have to say?"

Xu Shuzheng stood barefoot on the snow and smiled miserably: "I really want to eat fried salt beans from my hometown..."

"Bang!" With a gunshot, the revolver in Li Yaoting's hand was filled with cigarettes.
