Agents of the Republic of China

Looking at Xia Haoming and Xie Yunchao's hesitation, Li Shiqun had no choice but to explain: "You think, our defeat in Wuxi was only a matter of one day, and many changes were unexpected. How could Wang Xianqing get the news in advance? We met at Tianmu Mountain. Also, the route via Huzhou to Tianmu Mountain and then to Lin’an was determined temporarily, so it’s impossible for Wang Xianqing to know, and it’s even more impossible for the Americans to know. How could it be such a coincidence that they are waiting for us here?”

Hearing what Li Shiqun said, Xia Haoming and Xie Yunchao also recalled it.

Wang Xianqing looked a little flustered, but he forced a smile and said: "Minister Li, how dare I deceive you guys? This is the news that the Americans got. I just came to cooperate with them to find you. If you don't believe me, you can ask that Officer Scarlett!"

After hearing this, Li Shiqun smiled coldly, looked Wang Xianqing up and down, smiled and said nothing, suddenly twisted his backhand, pressed Wang Xianqing's left palm on the stone wall, flipped the pistol, and pressed it tightly against the back of Wang Xianqing's hand, without saying a word , is a shot.

Wang Xianqing suddenly screamed heart-piercingly, Li Shiqun let go of his hand, and he collapsed on the ground holding his bloody palm.

The three of Li Shiqun stood beside him, and Li Shiqun aimed the pistol at Wang Xianqing's other hand, without saying a word, just staring at him with sinister eyes.

Wang Xianqing resisted the pain. He also knew very well the personalities of Li Shiqun and Xia Haoming, and it was impossible to fool them around, so he could only recount the past.

Li Shiqun and the three listened to each other and looked at each other. Li Shiqun burst out laughing, "Heaven will not kill me! I never thought that there would be such an adventure in this barren mountain. After all, I, Li Shiqun, would still have a chance to stand up again." !"

Li Shiqun pouted, Xie Yunchao took out a roll of gauze from his bosom, and helped Wang Xianqing temporarily bandage the wound.Li Shiqun knelt down and played with the pistol calmly in front of Wang Xianqing, "Now do you know who is calling the shots?"

Wang Xianqing nodded awkwardly.

"The Americans are powerful, but here, they only have two people left, what kind of tricks can they play. I know that you were also a powerful figure before, but you have to figure it out, now your life and death are in my hands! "

"I understand, I will help you find the gold!" Wang Xianqing lost all energy.

According to Wang Xianqing's analysis, he didn't know the exact burial place of the gold at first, but along the way, he found so many bones of Japanese soldiers and Japanese military police, it can be confirmed that these military police were the [-] soldiers who escorted gold into the mountain. military police.And the fierce battle between the two sides again proved that the gold was buried in this area, or in other words, it might be hidden in this cave extending in all directions.

Hearing what Wang Xianqing said, Li Shiqun and the others immediately looked eagerly in their eyes. Li Shiqun looked at the surrounding terrain. There were five or six openings in this cave, but he was not sure which one to go to.

Wang Xianqing supported the stone wall with difficulty and stood up, pointing to the hole he rushed out just now, "If you go through that hole, there are bones inside, and you should be right if you follow the bones."

Li Shiqun agreed with Wang Xianqing's judgment. Immediately, he organized his staff. Xie Yunchao walked in the front with two capable men, while Li Shiqun pressed Wang Xianqing and walked in the middle of the team. Xia Zhiping followed closely behind, while Xia Haoming led two people into the cave.

There weren't many torches left, but fortunately Xie Yunchao's men had brought some dry branches, poured some spirits with them, and they could make do with it.

Wang Xianqing did not tell lies this time. Along the way, he saw many skeletons of Japanese soldiers and Japanese military police. From the lying postures of these skeletons, it can be seen how tragic the war was. In the open space, guns, daggers, bayonets, teeth, and nails were engaged in a bloody hand-to-hand combat.

The more people walked, the more frightened they were. Their understanding and assumptions about the war were confirmed in this confined space, even more so.

Suddenly, Xie Yunchao screamed, and ran forward like crazy with the two men who opened the way.Li Shiqun called their names loudly, but the three of them remained unmoved, as if possessed by a demon.

The crowd followed closely.

Walking closer, everyone felt their eyes brighten. This is a corridor about five or six meters wide. There are at least 40 skeletons on the ground, but they are all in a mess. There are some things that glow with golden light among the skeletons. Thank you. The three of Yunchao threw away the guns in their hands, went straight into the pile of bones, and picked up those things in a hurry.

"Brother, I found it, I found it!" Xie Yunchao waved the object in his hand and shouted to Li Shiqun.

Li Shiqun took it over and took a look, his breath suddenly became short of breath. What he held in his hand was a gold bar of about [-] grams, on which there was a steel seal of the central bank vault of the Nationalist Government.Li Shiqun didn't expect to find the location of the gold so easily, and his head was a little dizzy for a while.

But if you look carefully, there are only a few dozen gold bars here, and there is a damaged wooden box next to the stone wall. It should be that the box fell apart during the transportation, which scattered the gold all over the place.

There was a crack at the top of the used one. Looking up, one could faintly see the blue sky's wink. Just like this, the air circulation in the cave was at last much better, and the light was restored. Everyone hurriedly extinguished the torches. Take a short break here.

There were not many gold bars here, Li Shiqun was completely immersed in the joy of finding gold, and he didn't care about these gold bars, so he simply gave all of them to his subordinates.Everyone immediately cheered and hurriedly stuffed the gold bars into their close-fitting clothes.

Xia Zhiping's faint waking up made Li Shiqun ecstatic, and touched her forehead, the fever had subsided a little, and it wasn't as hot as before.There happened to be an air vent in this location, so Li Shiqun asked everyone to collect some dry branches, because he had discovered on the way here that a lot of dry firewood and branches were stored here, and it seems that the Japanese military police were also stationed here. I am ready to live with some necessities of life, but unfortunately no food can be found.

When the fire was lit up, the cold air in the cave subsided a lot, and everyone relaxed a lot. They took out the only dry food and picked coconuts to satisfy their hunger. Li Shiqun kept a piece of meat for Xia Zhiping. Dry it, wash the wild fruit, and persuade Xia Zhiping to use it anyway, Xia Zhiping finally regained some energy.

"Where are we?" Xia Zhiping couldn't help asking.

"We are looking for a way out. After the hillside collapsed, we arrived here, and now we are going to find a way out. I believe this is not far from Lin'an. When we get out of the cave, we will go to Lin'an immediately. There are our people there. , I can find the best doctor for you, and help you take care of your health!" Li Shiqun said softly.

Xia Zhiping sighed. Now that things have happened, she has no way of judging whether her choice is right or wrong.Fortunately, Li Shiqun took great care of him along the way, which finally reassured Xia Houzi a lot. At least for now, it seems that this man treats him wholeheartedly. But in the future, he will have to face his marriage and his children , Can life really be smooth sailing in the future?

"Don't think about it so much, let's go through this pass first!" Xia Zhiping was full of worries. Her husband Yuan Jianfeng didn't know if he was alive or dead, but she thought about her future life first, which made Xia Zhiping feel a little guilty.As a woman, Xia Zhiping feels that she doesn’t ask for much, all she needs is a man who treats herself wholeheartedly. Since she and Yuan Jianfeng have been married to this day, Xia Zhiping still misses the days when she first arrived in Shanghai, but the sweet dreams don’t last long Once there is a rift between husband and wife, the previous trust and tacit understanding will disappear. Until today, Xia Zhiping has no nostalgia for that marriage. Now she just wants to find a stable home. Thinking of this, She suddenly became a little envious of Dong Jiayi.

Everyone took off their wet clothes and put them to bake near the fire. After a while, there was a strong smell of sweat in the air.After replenishing food and resting, everyone's nerves relaxed, and they felt tired after a while, and some people even leaned against the stone wall and snored.

Because of Xia Haoming's injury, his legs were already immobile, and Xie Yunchao took two people to the front to explore the road, in fact, he wanted to find Jin's hiding place as soon as possible.And Li Shiqun couldn't bear it any longer after traveling all the way, so he leaned against the stone wall and dozed off.

No one noticed that something flew out of a dark corner, and suddenly fell into the fire, and the burning firewood made a dull cracking sound.This startled those who were leaning near the fire, but they couldn't see what fell into the fire.

While they were in a daze, a loud noise erupted from the fire, and the radiating flames completely engulfed the people around the fire, and the shrapnel scattered around the fire, several times A figure engulfed by flames, the screams that had just been made came to an abrupt end, like a rooster whose neck was pinched, and then fell down without a sound, letting the flames burn bit by bit Body, no more sound.

Xia Haoming was swept up high by the air waves, and smashed hard against the stone wall, his mouth was bloody, and blood spurted wildly. When he landed again, the original injured leg disappeared, leaving only a neat wound at the base of his thigh.Xia Haoming tried his best not to faint immediately.

With the sound of an explosion, Li Shiqun realized that there was a sneak attack, so he quickly rolled on the spot, pulled up the blanket that was overloading Xia Zhiping's body, wrapped them both in it, and lay down tightly on the ground, only then did he escape the impact of the shrapnel and flames. attack.

In the flames, more than a dozen ferocious faces rushed out, and the weapons in their hands were blazing.One of them shouted loudly, "Zhiping, where are you?"
