Chapter 1101 Dao Xing
It is not possible to stop students from causing trouble. The Military Control Commission alone will be the main force at that time, and the Military Control Commission will only be responsible for providing intelligence. The Kuomintang and the Communist Party have not yet completely broken up. Even if they know that there are Communists among the students, they can only arrest them secretly.
"Old sir, based on the information I have obtained, students from several universities and middle schools in Shanghai, including St. John's University, Zhijiang University, Soochow University, Datong University, Chengjian Middle School, etc., are preparing to hold an understanding on the day the president's envoy arrives in Shanghai and submit an open letter, mainly requiring the withdrawal of the US troops stationed in China and stop aiding the government to carry out civil war."
The Military Intelligence Bureau also has peripheral organizations in various colleges and middle schools. Some trained students will also invade the peripheral organizations of the Communist Party of China. Although they cannot join the Communist Party, it is impossible to keep such a big move completely confidential.
According to Hu Xiaomin's estimate, at least 3,000 students would participate in the understanding that day. They held the banner of victory in the War of Resistance and demanded that the civil war be stopped and democracy and freedom be pursued. They did not have a good name to arrest people.
Besides, those who can go to college and middle school are not children from ordinary families. After being arrested, someone will immediately express their feelings. Even the newspapers will criticize them, which will make everyone know. Even the police station can only let them go.
Qian Heting asked: "What should I do?"
It has to be admitted that Hu Xiaomin's mind is much more flexible than him. Especially for such political-related matters, he feels that Hu Xiaomin is considering more comprehensively than him.
Hu Xiaomin said: "First of all, keep the itinerary of the US President's special envoy confidential. If the itinerary cannot be kept confidential, keep his residence confidential. For example, if he lives in the Chinachem Hotel, we will declare to the public that he lives in the Central Hotel. In addition, we must closely monitor various schools. The main task of students is to study, strengthen the ideological education work of the school, let them study hard, and devote themselves to the construction of the country."
Qian Heting said: "No problem."
"The most important point is that we need to send people to monitor students' actions. It would be even better if we can send people to invade them. The CCP can win over students, why can't we? We need to guide students to the side that is beneficial to us."
On the 20th of this month, the US President's special envoy arrived in Shanghai. Although there was no public report, the students still learned the news.
Some middle and middle school students in Shanghai gathered at the Central Road Plaza and prepared to submit the "Open Letter from Middle School Students in the City to the Special Envoy" at the Huamao Hotel.
Of course, the police station tried its best to stop it, and Qian Heting even sent someone to rush into the student group as a student, causing riots among the students.
However, the students were very disciplined and well-organized. Not only were they not disturbed, they caught a few people who made trouble. This was embarrassing, and the police station had to send more police officers.
Fortunately, the presidential envoy was not at the Huamao Hotel. Even after being there, he quickly transferred after learning about the students' request for a gathering.
After the student arrived at the Huamao Hotel, the presidential envoy was invited away. This was the government's action. The presidential envoy did not know that the government invited him to meet with well-known democrats in Shanghai, mainly to avoid the students' petitions.
Feng Wu talked to Hu Xiaomin: "What should I do if the open letter cannot be delivered to the special envoy?"
He also felt that Hu Xiaomin was in a difficult position. He had to complete the tasks assigned by the organization and satisfy the students. Hu Xiaomin was really too difficult.
Hu Xiaomin said: "Do you know that the presidential envoy has a private secretary? This person is named Eliot, who speaks Chinese and seems to have Chinese descent. He lives in the Chinachem Hotel."
When he got the list of entourage staff of the presidential envoy, he noticed this private secretary: Eliot.
Protecting the presidential envoy is for the Kuomintang to see. However, the private secretary is not among his protection, and it is also a loophole that Hu Xiaomin deliberately left. It is really appropriate to ask Eliot to hand over the open letter.
"You have planned it long ago?"
"Yes, I will go to the Huamao Hotel later. You notify the comrades of the school committee that after my people arrive, they can withdraw. Otherwise, I will catch a few of the leaders and come back."
"Xiaomin, you came too timely."
Qian Heting was relieved when he saw Hu Xiaomin and the military commander, fully armed to the Huamao Hotel.
Hu Xiaomin led a whole battalion of troops, as well as personnel from the Operations Department and Intelligence Department of the Military Control Commission.
The police station can only be stalemate with students, but the Military Affairs Bureau is different. They can arrest terrorists.
"I'll call you, if the students don't part, then you're welcome."
Hu Xiaomin took out a megaphone, stood on the steps outside the Huamao Hotel, and shouted to the angry students: "Dear students, the US President's Special Envoy is not in the Huamao Hotel, you will not meet the envoy here. I hope that the heads of each school will bring their students back so as not to cause unnecessary misunderstandings."
"You can't believe the spy's words, we want to see the special envoy!"
"Down with military spies!"
Hu Xiaomin shouted: "Who said it just now? Do you dare to stand up? I want to invite you back for a cup of tea."
Behind Hu Xiaomin was a fully armed military police. The students below seemed to have received some kind of notification, but no one responded. Moreover, under his persuasion, they quickly dispersed on their own.
Qian Heting, behind him, wiped the sweat from his forehead: "Brother Xiaomin, you are still good."
Hu Xiaomin said modestly: "It's not that I'm awesome. They have been making trouble for so long and have not seen the presidential envoy. They also know that people are not here. If they continue to make trouble, they are making trouble unreasonable."
Qian Heting said, "I'll treat you tonight."
No matter what Hu Xiaomin said, he did help him to clear the siege just now. If the students were allowed to rush into the Huamao Hotel, he, the police chief, would probably be punished.
The police station and the Military Control Commission reported to the above the students' rally. Although the students had gathered, they did not see the special envoy of the US president, which allowed Qian Heting and Hu Xiaomin to brag about it.
Of course, the student's open letter was handed over through Eliotu, the private secretary of the president's envoy, but that was not the responsibility of Hu Xiaomin and Qian Heting.
On the second day of 1946, Hu Xiaomin received a public letter of complaint from employees of Xinxin Company, reporting that their manager Chen Zuji was a traitor and demanded that the Military Commission severely punish the traitor and uphold justice.
"Xiaomin, have you received a letter of report from Chen Zuji?"
Qian Heting also received the same letter of report, and all judicial organs received such letters.
"I heard that someone from above protects him?"
