Chapter 32: The Valkyrie
In the second half of the night, the moon in the sky finally gradually sinks. For some reason, today's moonlight is not as bright as yesterday. When Qi Qingyuan, who was in a dilemma, opened the window and looked into the sky unconsciously, he realized that it was a blood moon. [, he was shocked immediately. Western New Learning told him that the blood moon was a lunar eclipse, but more legends told him that the blood moon was a sign of killing and a sign of disaster to the country.
In fact, as for him, the murder was not what he wanted, and the house arrest of the gentleman and others were even more unwilling. He just wanted to protect himself. And so far, he didn't think that his business was too big. He misappropriated some military expenses and purchased soybeans, fur and other goods in the name of military use, and then exported them below the market price (many goods were short-lived materials during the European war, and the agricultural trade companies, customs and tax bureaus tried hard to increase prices, and the prices were extremely high); or bought some best-selling foreign goods and transported them from North Korea in military lines. This was simply a business. It was natural for the army to do business since ancient times. It was really hard to understand if the teacher refused. Not only did he not allow it, he also killed Ziyi and forced Xiaoshan to death, and also listed it as a serious case, day and night...
Thinking about how he got to this day step by step, Qi Qingyuan was not very sad. During this period, he kept thinking about a book of fate given to him before his mother died. He found someone to calculate it shortly after he was born. He never believed in the things he was talking about, such as "This life is hard and poor, and he always has many difficulties and troubles, and he is on the verge of suffering, and he cannot make a big plan for his life." But today, he is becoming more and more convinced...
"Qingyuan..." Li Shutong suddenly rushed in from outside, his voice extremely anxious, "Shi Yuan is dead!"
"What!" Qi Qingyuan was also shocked, "Didn't he pull out his poisonous fangs?!!"
"The poisonous fang was pulled out. But there was a button on his clothes. The guards didn't pay attention just now. Give him... Give him..." Li Shutong cried, Liu Boyuan, Qi Qingyuan, Wen Yongyu, Fei Yugui and others at Nanyang Public School not only belonged to the same couplet, but also slept together. Although Yang Rui had severely criticized this small group consciousness and even disrupted the dormitory, everyone came from the countryside to Shanghai because the brotherly feelings brought by the same couplets in school were not changed later. Among the three couplets, Qian Bocong's couplet was the most complete, Lei Yizhen's couplet, and then this couplet was his own. He had been brothers for half his life, but today he killed each other, which made Li Shutong cry without tears.
"I blame me for pushing him too hard!" Qi Qingyuan slapped himself in the face. In order to help Cai Yuanpei seize control of the National Security Bureau, when asked about the secrets in the bureau, Yuanshi became uncooperative. He had to pull out his poisonous fangs and imprison him, but he really didn't want him to commit suicide...
"What should I do now?" Li Shutong suppressed his heartache and asked anxiously. "Have Mr. Jimin not called yet?"
"Not yet!" Qi Qingyuan shook his head. He didn't know if he guessed wrongly, but he was thinking about republic.
"General..., the telegram from the capital!" Outside the door was a familiar report, and the Director of Telecommunications sent two telegrams.
"This is..." Qi Qingyuan couldn't help feeling bad when he saw that both letters were from the capital.
"One letter is sent back to us; the other letter is..." The Director of Telecommunications made a hard voice, swallowed his saliva before saying: "It was jointly issued in the name of the Central Committee of the Revival Society and the House of Reasons. It may have been more than an hour since it was sent by people from the government. The Central Committee... The Central Committee suddenly declared us a rebellious group for some reason..."
"Fart!" As soon as the Director of Telecommunications' "rebellion group" was released, Qi Qingyuan scolded. He reached out to grab the telegram and read it quickly, and then asked with a pale face: "Why did you receive it so late? Are you sure the decoding is correct?!"
"No error! The latter one is... it is clearly written.... This is sent to the government, the association branch and the farmers' association, not to us..." The Director of Telecommunications was extremely frightened. "General, what should we do..."
"You..., get out!!" Qi Qingyuan was furious. He didn't expect such a result in the capital. He was fooled by the amiable Mr. Jimin!
"What...what should we do? What should we do..." Uncle Li, who heard everything next to him, was unwilling to take risks. However, Qi Qingyuan's analysis made sense at that time. As long as Mr. Jimin in the capital cooperated, imprisoning Mr. and others was also a feasible way. I didn't want the capital to use it!
When Li Shutong asked, he didn't expect that the phone outside the house suddenly remembered. The sound of dingling was extremely scary even through the door. The staff officer there took the phone and suddenly there was a sound of tables and chairs moving, and another bad news: "Report to General, then... that General Li..., Li Liezu ran away!"
"How did he run away? What about the people looking at him?" Qi Qingyuan said furiously, asking all nonsense. His body shook unconsciously, and then he asked, "Where are Gongda and the others?"
He was talking about Wen Yongyu's words, but how could this staff officer know? Seeing the stunned staff officer, he waved his hand and said, "Contact other people immediately and let the guards take a look!" After the staff officer left, he fell on the chair and sighed, "It's all over!"
"What exactly did the Beijing city reply to us?" Li Shutong, who was standing aside, could no longer feel his breathing. His head was covered with coldness, and his abdomen had already been empty. He only regarded the call from Beijing as a life-saving straw, thinking that no matter what the conditions were there, he should agree to the current situation first.
Seeing that he was so obsessed, Qi Qingyuan lifted the call to the reply powerlessly. He quickly grabbed it and found that his head was also empty. There were only eight words on it. You kill you and I kill mine.
"What does this mean?" Li Shutong slowed down for a while before asking. "What 'You kill you, I kill mine'?"
"Mr. Jimin is crazy!" Qi Qingyuan was angry but weak. "The previous tip said that the whole city of the capital was killing people and shooting them. I thought it was Mr. Jimin for the sake of controlling the capital. Now it seems that it is not at all. He...he..." Qi Qingyuan said two 'his' in a row, and finally said with difficulty: "He is the same as Yinhua. Both are sick, and they are even more ill, and they are terminally ill!"
"What does it mean?!" Li Shutong didn't understand Zhang Huanrong. He didn't understand that Cai Yuanpei, who was terminally ill at this time, only pulled Qi Qingyuan's sleeve and asked. Since contacting the capital at around 8 o'clock, everything that happened is inexplicable.
"Mr. Jimin is determined to be republic, right?" Qi Qingyuan suddenly asked. After all, he was the general in charge of the entire army. He had recovered some of his energy at this time.
"Yes. Isn't this the reason why we look for Mr. Jimin? We help Mr. Jimin..." Li Shutong asked in confusion.
"Yes, we have this plan to let Mr. Jimin take power, and then pardon and reuse us. But Mr. Jimin believes that even if he became the prime minister, the president of the Revival Association, and the chairman of the Military Commission, he could not achieve republic. He thought that only by killing all members of the Revival Association and all the peasant association cadres could the republic have hope! That's why he said, "You kill you, I kill mine." Qi Qingyuan said coldly. Even he had to admire Cai Yuanpei for his decisiveness in killing.
"What?! This... this..., how is this possible?!" Li Shutong was shocked. "Some members and farmers' association cadres belong to the country, with millions of people. How could he kill them all? Could he call all these people to the capital and kill them one by one..."
"Just kill each other!" Qi Qingyuan said coldly. He raised the second clear telegram. "Mr. Jimin said in the telegram that many national treasure parties were hidden in the members of the local community and the peasant associations. Once the capital incident happened, these people would immediately respond. So he solemnly informed the central government's organizational resolution, requiring members from all over the country to overcome all difficulties, and to implement the organizational resolution to pieces, and ordering that all localities must shoot a group of people immediately..." He obviously did not want to continue talking. Instead, he stood up and said, "Xishuang, the revival meeting is over!"
"This...this..." Li Shutong hurriedly grabbed the telegram and read it. When he saw that the National Quotes were cunning, he had to be punished strictly. The current central government resolution: Kill one person and he would be rewarded with honors, kill ten people to be awarded with honors. Kill a hundred people to be awarded with titles, kill a thousand people to be awarded with titles, kill a thousand people to be awarded with titles, kill a thousand people to be awarded with titles, and kill a thousand people to be awarded with titles," the telegram was thrown out by him like a poisonous snake.
"Release the sir now! Quickly!" He grabbed Qi Qingyuan's shoulder with both hands and shook.
"It's not that you killed you, why are you excited! And things are caused by us. If you are guilty and guilty, you think he will spare us? Even if you don't kill, it will be imprisonment for life. If I wanted to live such a day, I would have surrendered myself." Qi Qingyuan broke his hand away with force, and then affirmed: "Let them kill, the more they kill, the better. The more they kill, the more chaos, the more they will be, the less no one will look for us. Xishuang, it's time to escape." After saying that, he grabbed the phone, answered it and said in a deep voice: "I am Qi Qingyuan, yes! The airport is ready for the passenger plane, yes! Yes! I'll arrive soon."
"What should I do if those sir?" Li Shutong listened to Qi Qingyuan's order in a daze and was indeed going to escape. Although he had thought about it countless times at this moment, at this moment, he was very confused. The world was so big that he really didn't know where to stay.
"Just kill Zhang Shi, the director of the Intelligence Bureau. Although the world is big, with him here, we will be found wherever we hide. As for sir, there are others..." Qi Qingyuan was silent. He suddenly walked to the window and opened the curtains and stared at the building behind for a while. It was not until the bell rang three times before he slowly said: "After all, Teachers and Students have a fight, and sirs did nothing wrong, so let's stay. But it's important to be careful. Li Liezu's bastard really wants to come over, and that will happen a few days later."
When the bell rang, Yang Rui was awakened by Ye Yunbiao who was on the night in a daze: "Commander, it's already three o'clock!"
"So quickly?" Yang Rui asked after waking up. He vaguely remembered that he had just fallen asleep. He was in the basement at this time. At nine o'clock, soldiers outside suddenly surrounded the entire back building. They did not shoot, and the guards did not shoot, but to be cautious, he and his son were transferred to the basement, mainly because they came here for fear of artillery fire. If he really wanted him to die, the soldiers would rush in. The 150mm howitzer could kill him in three minutes.
"Yes." Ye Yunbiao didn't sleep at all. Although he was a martial arts practitioner, he was nearly forty years old, so there was a lot of blood in his eyes. "Just wait for another thirty minutes, then..."
Yang Rui understood the meaning of Ye Yunbiao's thirty minutes, and it would be dawn in another thirty minutes. According to the Valkyrie plan he signed five years ago, he couldn't understand why he gave this plan a name. This was something that was later filmed by Hitler. However, it was the emergency plan after Hitler was assassinated, and this was his life-saving plan. It was targeted at a large-scale, organized, especially the rebellion initiated by military generals. According to the plan, there were more than thirty minutes. The world's first airborne assault battalion would appear over Tonghua. However, only the Jade Emperor knew whether they could rescue themselves.
"Don't have too much hope. Airborne operations are different. No one knows how many people Qingyuan has deployed in Tonghua. No one knows the weather..." Although Yang Rui was looking forward, he didn't dare to look forward too much.
"The weather outside is sunny! Commander." Unlike Yang Rui, who dared not have too much hope, Ye Yunbiao has always been confident in Yang Rui. "I have ordered people to move the small generator to the roof of the building, and turn on the indicator light in twenty minutes to set the target for them! The signal flare is also ready. As long as they come, they are not afraid of not knowing that we are here. There are still vigilance around to prevent Qi Qingyuan from jumping over the wall..."
"No. Let them listen first. There must be some movement when seventy or eighty planes are flying on their heads." Yang Rui replied casually. Although it was confirmed from Liu Boyuan that only a small number of the Fuxing Army generals participated in the rebellion, he still hoped that Wu Xifen could be more powerful, otherwise he would really die here.
If the capital is the heart of the country and the brain of the Fuxing Army, then Baoding, the former important Beiyang New Army, was the brain of the State Taxation Bureau. As a key force to balance the Fuxing Army, the tax police were completely on par with the Fuxing Army in the command system of the General Staff. What is not known to Chief of the General Staff Bei Shoutong is that if a rebellion occurs, the tax police can operate independently from the command system of the General Staff, and take over the command power of each group of troops according to the established procedures. At the same time, the State Taxation Bureau of major cities is built in key areas in the city. Not only are the walls and deep ditches and heavy fortifications, they also dig wells and bring their own dry food. They also have weapons, ammunition, oil, small generators, and high-power radio stations... In short, according to Yang Rui's words, if the Fuxing Army is a field army, then the tax police are the city war army.
Although a country has two military systems, how can it save lives if it is not so? Of course, money is a trivial matter, and talent is the key. Since the Fuxing Army brought out by himself will rebel, how can the tax police not be sentenced without being close to it? So the final result is that the tax police force is responsible for guarding and rescue, while all the generals are outside the Fuxing Army system.
This time, the backup system set up by the IRS in Beijing found that the Prime Minister's Guard did not make any updates on time and could not contact him. Valkyrie's plan was started according to the procedures. At 3 pm, all tax police began to return to the team one after another, and martial law was in the bureau, and a dedicated radio station was turned on. Once they received the order from the Baoding headquarters, the tax police would immediately take over various cities and kill all blocking enemies.
However, the order message to take over the city has never arrived. Lieutenant General Wu Xifen believed that before the parachute of the airborne camp, all troops could only be on standby. The reason for this was that he could not know who participated in the rebellion and who did not participate in the rebellion. Before the airborne camp operation, any city was taken over would alert the rebels and would likely take risks and kill the Prime Minister; even when Cai Yuanpei launched the purge in Beijing, he still sat in the chair and stood still. The more critical the situation was, the more important the Prime Minister's safety was. Only by rescuing the Prime Minister can all be stopped. This is what he kept chanting in his heart.
‘Dang!Dang!Dang!’ The clock was struck three times in a row. In the war room, Lieutenant General Wu Xifen raised his head with his lowered head. He looked at the Chief of Staff, Colonel Zhang Lianfen, who was from Baoding, said: “Now the aircraft group is less than a hundred kilometers away from Tonghua?”
"Yes, sir. The last time I sent the report was Xinbin." Zhang Lianfen, Zhang Guoren, Yu Pengju..., these staff members all saw it. After answering, Zhang Lianfen asked again: "Sir, the parachute will start in half an hour according to the plan. We should now generate electricity immediately to stop the lives of Beijing and all over the place."
"No!" Wu Xifen shook his head, "What if the aircraft fleet treks? What if Tonghua is full of fog? Even if they cannot receive a call from their actions, they will have to wait fifteen minutes before they can issue the order. You must know that this country was completely established by the Prime Minister, and the Prime Minister is everything. As long as the Prime Minister can be rescued, the country can be restored to its original state."
Facing the current group of Baoding students, who were born in Nanjing Army Academy, but were angry at the Russians who dropped out of school and joined the Revival Society because of their anger, they understood more clearly what Yang Rui meant to the Revival Society and the country. If Yang Rui did not make any mistakes, what would he do to keep the Revival Society members? Will the whole country first have a civil war and then foreign war?
"What the hell is leading the team..." For some reason, Wu Xifen couldn't remember the name of the major leading the team, and he didn't understand why this person was appointed as the battalion commander of the airborne assault battalion by the Prime Minister. He couldn't recall it here, but Chief of Staff Colonel Zhang Lianfen knew it. He hurriedly reminded, "It's called Fu Zuoyi, sir."
"Yes, Fu Zuoyi." Wu Xifen nodded, "Shanxi, a man who looks very mature." He affirmed again, "Have he received the last order?"
At 3:00 p.m., the airborne assault battalion received a mobilization order; at 8:00 p.m., the entire battalion gathered at Baoding Military Airport; at 9:00 p.m., the first military aircraft took off. In the next half an hour, except for the 34 people who did not return to the team in time, the remaining 534 people took 65 military transport planes to Tonghua. In addition to the transport planes, this group also had two squadron fighter jets, as well as two high-horsepower small short-distance take-off and landing planes. This was a life-saving plane used to rescue the Prime Minister and escape the rebel encirclement.
However, it is easy to escape from Tonghua, but it is completely impossible to fly back to Baoding, so the final content of the plan is: rescue the Prime Minister and the assault battalion can surrender; the transport plane lands at Tonghua or other military airports; only fighter jets carrying sub-fuel tanks and the two specially designed life-saving planes can fly another six to seven hundred kilometers. It is embarrassing to fly anywhere from this distance. In the current situation, it is best to fly directly to Pyongyang. After refueling from Pyongyang and then flying back to Baoding, it will be settled. But Wu Xifen was worried about an accident, especially when they were flying to the direction of the capital or Shandong. You must know that when the capital was in chaos, the aircraft group had already taken off and the orders could only be transmitted via radio.
"Major Fu Zuoyi has confirmed the order." Zhang Lianfen said, but he pondered for a moment and reminded: "It's just... he is on the plane now, and only the officers on the same plane know about the orders, and the soldiers on the other planes don't know about it."
Even in World War II, many aircraft were unable to communicate radio in the air due to electromagnetic interference, and transport planes were even more unlikely to make gestures in the dark night, so Zhang Lianfen was worried that the order could not be completely transmitted. Once the parachute began, the army system would become extremely chaotic. At that time, the soldiers had grouped in the east and west, and had no time to launch the radio station at all. It was very likely that they would face battle before landing.
The 1st Army of the Fuxing Army was the earliest unit established by the Fuxing Association, and it was also an elite unit. This operation was completely a tiger's tooth extraction. If it failed, it was between thirty minutes and an hour after the parachute landing. If they were not caught off guard at the beginning, the airborne assault battalion lacking heavy weapons would no longer have the hope of rescuing the Prime Minister. It is conceivable that the battlefield would be in chaos, even if the entire assault battalion was sharp as a knife.
"Is there any other remedy?" Wu Xifen, who had read the training report of the airborne assault camp many times, asked unwillingly.
"No, sir. After the troops set off, everything can only be decided by the commander temporarily. If Major Fu Zuoyi can pass the order to the rescue plane, the Prime Minister will definitely fly to Pyongyang; if not, then we can only act according to the plane..." Zhang Lianfen said.
"Okay!" Wu Xifen murmured in a low voice. After he was silent for a long time, he looked at the pocket watch again: at 3:17. The time was almost over, and he stood up immediately. Zhang Lianfen and others also stood up, with a little hoarseness of staying up late. Wu Xifen said solemnly: "Now I announce: implement the Valkyrie plan!
Please record the following orders: Generate power to the headquarters of the group army, the field army headquarters, and the field division headquarters, and require the commander to immediately check the secret code according to the procedures, unseal the secret file of the zero number, and execute the above orders; generate power to the provincial, prefecture, and the county revival association department, and require the committee to immediately check the secret code according to the procedures, unseal the secret file of the Gui number, and execute the above orders; generate power from the provinces, prefectures, and the county governments, and require the chief executive to immediately check the secret code according to the procedures, unseal the secret file of the sub number, and execute the above orders.

In addition, power generation will be carried out to all provinces, prefectures, counties, townships, and tax offices. Tax police in all departments will immediately take over all important and critical facilities listed in the plan according to the procedures, such as local governments, telegraph bureaus, patrol police stations, radio stations, stations, docks, power plants, etc.; and protect these facilities from being mastered by the insurgents. If you encounter disobedience during execution, kill them without any delay! Okay, execute them immediately!"
Chapter completed!
