Beitai is an industrial center established by Chen Zikun. Half of the GDP of the entire Jiangdong Province is in this city. Steel and military industry are urgently needed for the construction of the New China in the future, so it must be preserved at all costs.

Previously, Chen Zikun had secretly ordered his confidants to launch an uprising when necessary and formally broke with the reactionary Kuomintang authorities. However, no one expected that the situation was so swift. He thought that the Kuomintang could support it until the early 1950s, but he did not expect that it would collapse in just a few months, and the People's Liberation Army was just around the corner to go south to the Yangtze River, so Chen Zikun's arrangements and deployments were inevitably slowed down.

In order to confuse the enemy and to find another way out, most of the family members are in Shanghai, while Chen Zikun and Xia Xiaoqing and Lin Wenjing stay in the provincial capital. If they rashly launch an uprising, they will inevitably suffer.

Chen Shou raised questions about what to do if an uprising is launched and the family members who are in danger in the provincial capital are in danger. Liu Xiaoyong said that his family is also in the provincial capital. Since ancient times, loyalty and filial piety are difficult to achieve both loyalty and filial piety. As a soldier, he must be responsible to the country and nation, which is the righteousness.

As they were talking, both of them had a temper. Chen Shou drew his gun and slapped it on the table and said, "Boy, you were still playing with mud when I was doing big business in Nantai. It's your turn to talk here."

Liu Xiaoyong was not outdone and said, "If age works, the turtle and tyrants in the river are the biggest."

The two of them had red faces and thick necks, and the guards behind them were also glaring at each other. However, no matter how quarrels, no one dared to do anything about gunfire.

Xiao Lang and Gai Longquan tried hard to persuade each other, but they couldn't stop. Chen Shou was an old qualification of the Jiangdong Army, Chen Zikun's iron-core direct lineage, Liu Xiaoyong was a representative of the young and strong sects and military academy students, and there was also a large number of supporters in the army. When they fought in the internal battle, it was definitely a matter for the relatives to suffer from the enemy.

Just as the quarrel was in trouble, the officer on duty suddenly came to report: "Qu Guangwu sent an ultimatum to ask us to withdraw from the defense zone within an hour, otherwise we would be punished as a mutiny."

The two people who were already nervous were storming at the same time: "Damn it, fight."

Qu Guangwu helped them make a decision. The troops must fight at the city. Starting a war means breaking. The general must be notified to make arrangements early. The telephone line between Beitai and the provincial capital is connected, but now it cannot be reached. Fortunately, there is still a transmitter.

In the provincial capital, the telegraph room of Fenglin Road official residence, the translator was receiving a secret telegram from Beitai. After deciphering it, it was immediately handed over to Chen Zikun.

After reading it, Chen Zikun made a quick decision to order: "Resuming the phone, an uprising."

After sending the telegram, Chen Zikun paced back and forth in the office, feeling extremely complicated. The blue sky and white sun flag was flying on the flagpole in the yard. He followed this flag and fought with countless efforts. Now he is about to break up with it, changing the world and changing thousands of changes, as if yesterday.

Looking back on the ninth year of the Republic of China, I met Chiang Kai-shek in Shanghai. At that time, he was still a penniless gangster, but later he rose to the top and faced a total failure within a few years of becoming the leader of the country. It is a pity.

"I saw him raise a tall building, I saw him entertain guests, and I saw his building collapse." Chen Zikun sighed, pressed the electric bell, and Liang Mao walked in.

"Let the guards gather, I have something to say." Chen Zikun said.

There is a battalion of guards at Fenglin Road official residence. They are well-weaponed, well-trained, loyal, and have a water-like American military uniform, steel helmet, leather boots, khaki uniforms, and boat caps with blue sky and white sun badges. At the command, in addition to the guards on duty, more than 400 soldiers gathered in the yard and waited for the general to speak.

Chen Zikun was wearing military uniform and wearing a pistol on his waist. His eyes were bright and he glanced at everyone. Wherever he went, the soldiers raised their chests for inspection.

"Brothers." Chen Zikun shouted.

Everyone stood at attention, and the sound of his heels hitting each other was shocking.

"This government." Chen Zikun reached out and pointed to the blue sky on the flagpole and the red sun on the ground, and said excitedly: "It's already rotten. The Kuomintang Chiang Kai-shek has exhausted his energy. We have to walk the 30 million people in Jiangdong by ourselves and cannot be used as cannon fodder for them. I announced that we will break the blame with the authorities and the provincial government, the provincial party committee and the Pacification Office will be abolished from now on, and Jiangdong will be self-governed."

After saying that, he took off the blue sky and sun-shaped peach-shaped hat badge surrounded by the big brimmed hat, threw it on the ground, and also picked off the golden plum blossoms on the collar and the star on the shoulders, and threw them on the ground.

The soldiers followed his example and took off all the military rank badges related to the Kuomintang.

This scene made Chen Zikun feel deeply moved. After the March 18th Massacre twenty-three years ago, he also made such a move, taking off the five-color star emblem of the Beiyang government. Now it is the historical juncture of making a choice. I hope that this time I will not choose the wrong path.

Suddenly, the adjutant came to report that it was Liu Zhi who invited him to the evening banquet.

"Just say I will definitely participate." Chen Zikun said calmly.

Since the uprising was decided, the family members who were far away in Shanghai must evacuate as soon as possible. Chen Zikun called over a long distance, but unfortunately, the line was not connected, so he used a radio to send a secret power to contact him.

On the street near Chen Mansion in Shanghai, a radio listening car parked in a corner. The interpreter of the Secret Service intercepted the secret telegram, but could not decipher it, so he had to ask Chen Kai, who had been transferred back to Shanghai.

Chen Kai killed the senior spy Yan Qingyu and made great contributions, and was highly appreciated by Mao Renfeng. He was promoted to the rank of lieutenant colonel. He was responsible for monitoring the Chen family. He was originally a man who was a man who used password decoding, but it was quickly decoded without any problem.

"No, Chen Zikun wants to betray the party and the country." Chen Kai was shocked and hurriedly hung up the phone to Director Mao Renfeng in Nanjing.

Mao Renfeng had already received Chiang Kai-shek's instructions and could use all means when necessary, and he immediately made a decision: "Immediately seize Chen Zikun's family, and Chen Zikun's brother-in-law Lin Wenlong is a member of the country, so he must seize it and deal with it strictly."

"Yes." Chen opened the phone and showed his fierce look. He led his men to go straight to Chen Mansion.

The guards of Chen Mansion were very weak, and they were okay to deal with ordinary thieves. In front of the agents of the Random Movement Team of the Secret Service, they could only surrender. The agents broke into the gate, wall, and back door like divine soldiers. The guards were pressed to the ground before they were pulled out. Yao Yilei and Jian Bing were playing mahjong. When they heard the screams of servants, they hurried out to check. Seeing that the leader was Chen Kai, they asked calmly: "Xiao Shen, what are you doing?"

Chen Kai said politely: "Madam, I'm sorry, to protect your safety, please do not enter and exit at will."

Yao Yilei was furious: "What do you mean? Do you want to put us under house arrest?"

Chen Kai said: "Madam, calm down, this means up to the top, and I am just executing orders."

Yao Yilei shouted, "I want to call Mao Renfeng and Li Zongren." She turned around and picked up the phone. There was no sound. The phone line had been cut off.

The housekeeper came over with a telegram and whispered: "Madam, call from the provincial capital, the master told us to leave quickly."

Yao Yilei said, "I can't get out." After thinking about it, he rushed upstairs and opened the jewelry box, took two gold bars, and planned to go down and bribe the agents to release them out, notifying his daughter Chen Yan not to go home, and Chen Nan had to run away quickly.

But as soon as she went downstairs, she saw her daughter coming in from outside, looking ignorant: "Mommy, why are there so many people in the family?"

Chen Kai said: "Miss, we are ordered to protect you."

Chen Yan said: "Is it my father's order?"

Smiling but silent.

Yao Yilei said: "Yan'er, come in."

Pulling his daughter into the door and slamming the door.

Chen Kai lit a cigarette and ordered his men: "Don't do anything randomly, wait for instructions from the top."

The spies knew Chen Zikun's identity, so they naturally did not dare to act rashly, and did not enter the foreign buildings, but only patrol and monitor the yard.

Chen Kai left a team of people under house arrest by Chen's family and drove to Fudan University to arrest Lin Wenlong.

Lin Wenlong is a Chinese professor at Jiangdong University. He is now doing academic research at Fudan University. Chen Kai is his elementary school classmate. The two have always had a good relationship, so when they see Chen Kai visiting, Lin Wenlong was very happy: "Old classmate, what's the matter with me?"

Chen Kai smiled and said, "Follow me, you will know later."

Lin Wenlong was not suspected of being a fraud, and got into the car with him and drove until outside the prison of Songhu Security Command before he woke up: "Chen Kai, you want to arrest me."

Chen Kai smiled hideously: "Old classmate, you often make reactionary remarks in the newspapers, thinking that our Secret Service doesn't know that it is your pseudonym. If the subversion of the government is unforgivable, I can't help you this time." With a stretch of his hand, he put handcuffs on Lin Wenlong's wrist with a click.

"Liao dog, you reactionary authorities' lackey." Lin Wenlong spat and looked up.

Chen Kai was not angry, so he took out his handkerchief to wipe his face and said, "Old classmate, I don't care about you because of my childhood relationship. Fortunately, you are in my hands and have to bury you alive if you want to change someone else."

Lin Wenlong said: "Then what are you going to deal with me."

Chen Kai said: "I will make someone beat you to death and then bury you. This will reduce a lot of pain. Who makes us old classmates?"

Lin Wenlong's legs were a little weak. He was a cultural person, scholar, and professor. He was not the kind of revolutionary who dared to sacrifice for his ideals. He suddenly learned that he was going to be executed. In a moment, he felt calm and calm down. He held his glasses, stroked his tie, and said to Chen Kai: "Do you have any paper and pen? I want to write a suicide note."

Chen Kai ordered people to take Lin Wenlong into prison, and took him a paper and pen and said, "You can write whatever you want, and it will take a few hours to send you on your way."

Four hours passed like this, and it was not until the night when Shen Kai came back. At this time, Lin Wenlong had already written a suicide note, sprinkling thousands of words.

Chen Kai threw the suicide note aside without looking at it and said, "Okay, take off your clothes."

Lin Wenlong smiled contemptuously, took off his suit and untied his tie.

"Trousers and shirts are taken off." Chen Kai showed a strange smile on his face.

Lin Wenlong still did as he said, taking off only his underwear, and he still didn't give up: "Glasses, watches, leather shoes."

"You have a lot of attention to killing people, okay, come naked, go naked." Lin Wenlong took off his glasses and watch, took off his leather shoes, and only had shorts, vests and socks.

Chen Kai handed over a set of clothes, shirt, pants, and a pair of cloth shoes: "Switch to this."

Lin Wenlong was puzzled, but he vaguely guessed something and hurriedly put on his new clothes.

Chen Kai's assistant dragged a corpse from outside. He was about the same size and age as Lin Wenlong, his hair was also middle-parted, and he only wore underwear.

They put Lin Wenlong's clothes on the corpse, put on leather shoes and glasses on the dead.

"Let's go, old classmate." Chen Kai smiled and pushed Lin Wenlong.

When he arrived at the black pine forest behind the prison, a pit had been dug on the ground. The agent put the body wearing Lin Wenlong's clothes in it and buried it with a shovel.

"I can only send you here. Keep walking forward. Someone will pick you up. Goodbye, old classmate." Chen Kai stretched out his hand. Lin Wenlong hesitated for a moment, and still held his hand. The two of them tightly held their hands, but they had not separated for a long time.

"Let's go." Chen Kai said.

Lin Wenlong nodded and left quickly.

Three gunshots came from behind, penetrated the night sky and flew away in shock. Lin Wenlong couldn't help but turn around, and waving his hand at himself with a pistol holding a curling blue smoke.

He knew that this was an old classmate shooting to see him off.
