Agents of the Republic of China

Lin Xiaotang proposed to meet Dong Jiayi first, but the man disagreed, but he repeatedly assured Lin Xiaotang of the safety and treatment of Dong Jiayi and others.He said that they are also aware of the influence and status of the Dong family in Nanyang, and they will definitely not treat Dong Jiayi and others slowly. As long as the Buddha statue is handed over to them, they will release them immediately.As for the box of jewelry, it is considered the hard-earned money of the independent organization.

Helpless, Lin Xiaotang had no choice but to leave with Shopkeeper Dong first.

On the way, they met Guo Zhui and others, and went back to shopkeeper Dong's shop together.

At this time, Bai Qi had come back and was waiting anxiously.Seeing Lin Xiaotang and others coming back, he immediately ran forward to inquire about the situation.Lin Xiaotang briefly narrated the process, and Bai Qiqiu nodded, "In this way, things will be easy to handle, as long as they have a clear goal, besides, those Buddha statues are not of much use to us, just return them."

Shopkeeper Dong hurriedly sent a telegram to Dong Zhennan.Lin Xiaotang asked about Bai Qi's going out to inquire.

Bai Qi shook his head, and his face became heavy. As expected, the Yangon Station of the military command has been attacked by Japanese secret agents. The only two contact points were all blown up, and many people were killed and injured. Some of the remaining personnel were missing. Some have been transferred.

Lin Xiaotang pondered for a while, "It seems that it is the bad result left by Pei Zhongyan. The Japanese have already mastered the basic organizational structure of the military command, and even some confidential information. It is inevitable that the military command will be reshuffled. You might as well give Dai Li a suggestion when you go back. , In addition." Lin Xiaotang suddenly smiled, "Taking this opportunity, you can also place some personnel into the military command!"

Bai Qi's eyes lit up, "That's a good reason!"

At daybreak, Dong Zhennan sent a reply telegram, agreeing to hand over the Buddha statues to the independent organization. He also told Lin Xiaotang that since the British still have files on these Buddha statues, they might as well blow up the warehouse after handing over, causing the warehouse to be destroyed. The illusion of being looted, the army is in chaos, and the British will no longer cause trouble because of this matter.

Lin Xiaotang and the others finished their rest, used our meals, prepared their weapons, and selected the participants. They were about to set off when Geng Xiaozheng brought people to the door.

The first thing he said when he entered the door was to greet Lin Xiaotang and the others to leave quickly.

"The British can't hold on any longer. The expeditionary force can't quench their thirst. The Japanese army is about to enter the city. The liaison team has already retreated. Let me inform you and rush to the airport immediately. There are still a few planes. It's late, but it's too late!" After saying these words, Geng Xiaozheng hurried out the door.

Lin Xiaotang was in trouble for a while, but fortunately the place where he met with the independent organization was not far from the airport, so Lin Xiaotang simply asked Shopkeeper Dong's deputy to wait at the airport with those who were willing to evacuate, while he, Shopkeeper Dong, Bai Qi, Guo Zhui rushed to the transfer point with more than a dozen capable personnel.After Dong Jiayi was rescued, she immediately rushed to the airport to meet up.

Shopkeeper Dong gathered all the vehicles of Dong’s family in Yangon, including two trucks and three cars. The people on the trucks went to the airport first, and the vehicles were also equipped with armed personnel to deal with the sudden attack in the chaos.

……

The secret warehouse of the Dong family is in a mountain near the airport. According to Dong’s shopkeeper, the British demanded absolute secrecy for this project. Therefore, the Dong family agreed to gather the Buddha statues shipped from all over the place in the most important place in this era. The place is far away, remote and desolate, few people usually pass by, the warehouse is also a cave, the location is hidden, so outsiders have never been able to know.

After Lin Xiaotang and others arrived, Guo Zhui took people to hide first, leaving only Lin Xiaotang, shopkeeper Dong and Bai Qi at the scene.

After waiting for about 10 minutes, the road was full of dust and smoke, and two dilapidated trucks drove over, followed by a car.

The two men in the store got out of the car with more than 20 armed men, and the man who had talked with Lin Xiaotang smiled, "You two really keep your word! What about the things I want?"

Lin Xiaotang didn't answer, but asked directly, "Where's the person?"

The man smiled and nodded to one of his men beside him, who pushed down a few people with black cloths on their faces from the truck with the awning on.

After taking off the black cloth, Dong Jiayi's eyes could not adapt to the sudden strong light. It took her a while to open her eyes, but she saw Lin Xiaotang smiling at her not far away. "You, why are you here?"

Lin Xiaotang replied with a smile: "I'll pick you up!"

The man pushed Dong Jiayi's female secretary and entourage to Lin Xiaotang's side, "This is our sincerity, I will leave it to you two first, we will take care of Miss Dong and her bodyguard for a while, don't worry, as long as you see the Buddha statue, you two You can go now!"

The man smiled heartily, "My name is Banda," and pointed to the man who was sitting with him yesterday, "That's my brother Banner! Our two brothers are both soldiers of the Independence Army. Shopkeeper Dong should have heard of us. , we are not kidnappers, but soldiers, so please believe in our sincerity."

Lin Xiaotang nodded, winked at Dong Jiayi, and then looked at the shopkeeper Dong, "Uncle Dong, open the door!"

Shopkeeper Dong brought Lin Xiaotang and others to the mountain wall, carefully touched the texture of the rock, took the Burmese knife handed over by Bai Qi, cut off the thorns and vegetation wrapped around the rock wall one by one, and cleaned up the weeds , pointing to a black iron gate exposed on the mountain wall and said, "This is it!"

Shopkeeper Dong took out a huge key, inserted it into the keyhole of the iron door, and said to himself: "This place has not been used for many years, I wonder if it can still be opened?"

Twist it hard a few times, and there was a click in the keyhole. Shopkeeper Dong showed joy on his face, and turned around and said, "Help push it!"

The two brothers Banda and Banner rushed forward with people to help, and they worked together to slowly push open the rusted iron door, a musty smell rushed into the nostrils, and in the smoke and dust, several bat monsters screamed and flew When he came out, everyone was startled.

When the smoke cleared, shopkeeper Dong covered his mouth and nose, turned on the flashlight, walked into the cave to take a picture, and turned to Banda and said, "There are eight Buddha statues in our custody, all of which are here. I also have a list here. It is clear which area and which temple the Buddha statue was moved from, you can compare it."

Banda and the others hurriedly clasped their hands together, and bowed to the ground facing the Buddha statue covered in dust and spiders.

Lin Xiaotang took advantage of the time when they were praying to Buddha, and hurriedly pulled Dong Jiayi and Caiba over, and untied the ropes from their hands.

Lin Xiaotang held Dong Jiayi's hands, "Are you okay?"

Dong Jiayi snorted and ignored him.

Lin Xiaotang smiled wryly, "Miss, how many days have passed, are you still angry with me?"

Banda turned around, walked to Lin Xiaotang, and smiled apologetically at Dong Jiayi, "Miss Dong, I'm sorry. The Dong family has been in Myanmar for many years and has always been kind and generous. If it wasn't for the Buddha statue this time, we wouldn't dare to treat you Disrespectful. Please accept our apology!"

Dong Jiayi snorted again, "If you want these Buddha statues, all you have to do is ask, why do you need to kidnap them?"

Banda replied: "The British are still in Yangon after all, and we are also afraid of alarming them. If the Buddha statue is damaged because of us, we will die without atonement!"

Lin Xiaotang pouted, "Can we go?"

Banda bent slightly, "Of course!"

Banda ordered his men to clean up the Buddha statues, while he and his younger brother Banner sent Lin Xiaotang and others out.

But just after walking out, four people suddenly got off the car not far away. "Banda, they can't go!"

Lin Xiaotang turned his head and saw four men wearing short-sleeved shirts, the leader with a beard around his lips, shouting loudly at Banda.

Banda frowned, "Mr. Qiushang, this is our business. The Dong family has already returned the Buddha statue, so this matter has nothing to do with them."

Lin Xiaotang's pupils shrank sharply, and he turned his head to look at Bai Qi. Bai Qi obviously heard Banda's name for the man, and the two of them immediately became more vigilant, and reached for the pistol at their waists.

The person named Qiushang was a little annoyed, "The matter of the Buddha statue must not be spread. In short, you must follow my orders."

Banda said coldly: "Qiu Shang, don't tell me what to do. Our superior is Mr. Aung San, and we only obey his orders!"

At this time, there was a sudden roar in the sky, and a large number of Japanese bombers rushed out from the clouds. Yangon was immediately shrouded in the flames and smoke of the explosion, and everyone was bombed suddenly. Taking advantage of this gap, Lin Xiaotang and the others dragged Dong Jiayi and the others to run behind the hillside.

Seeing that the momentum was wrong, Qiu Shang hurriedly raised his gun to shoot, and blurted out the Japanese words in his mouth, "Baga, we can't let them escape!"

Qiu Shang and three of his subordinates shot continuously at Lin Xiaotang and the others. Lin Xiaotang and the others retreated and fought back, but Banda and the others ignored it at all and turned around and retreated into the cave.

At this time, Guo Zhui and the others also rushed over from all directions. Seeing that there was still an ambush, Qiushang quickly stopped, but kept shooting, not daring to chase after him. Under the cover, Lin Xiaotang and the others got into the car and rushed With a big throttle, he galloped to the airport.

Qiu Shang angrily jumped up and cursed.

When they arrived at the airport, the airport was already in chaos. A large number of British soldiers who had retreated from the city defense line rushed to the transport planes of the British and American Air Forces on the runway. Even if the military police fired warning shots, no one paid attention.

The three cars of Lin Xiaotang and others headed straight to the location agreed by Geng Xiaozheng, where there was also a large US military transport plane, which was the plane piloted by Captain Parker.

Geng Xiaozheng had been waiting impatiently, and when he saw Lin Xiaotang and others coming, he breathed a sigh of relief and rushed over, "Why did you come, the plane is about to take off!"

Before Lin Xiaotang could answer, several Japanese fighter planes appeared above the airport, pouring down machine gun bullets and bombs without warning. The crowd on the runway suddenly burst into blood, and crowds of soldiers were surrounded by bullets and artillery fire. fall down.

Geng Xiaozheng's face was pale, "It's over, it's over, the Japanese are coming!"
