Since the Jiangsu-Zhejiang War two years ago, there has been tension between the Zhili and Fengli warlords.In October, the Northeast Army broke through the Great Wall, and Feng Yuxiang in Beijing launched a coup to surround the presidential palace, and the chief general of the direct line was defeated and fled south.

After Cao Kun stepped down, Zhang Zuolin took power in Beijing, but Shanghai was still occupied by Zhili warlords.At the same time, the southern revolutionaries established the Nationalist Government in Guangzhou, and actually led the 25 National Revolutionary Army to swear to the Northern Expedition!

Zhu Nanjiang was promoted to police inspector in February of this year, and became the youngest "powerful person" in the French Concession.

As the only Chinese detective in the patrol room, he received congratulations and "care" from all walks of life in just half a month.The old acquaintances ran more diligently, the unfamiliar ones suddenly warmed up, and the rogue boss who had been in a relationship was always in danger, and he came to the door in different ways to make amends.

Luo Zhanyuan, as the person who single-handedly promoted him at the beginning, naturally has a bright face.Although Zhu Nanjiang has never opened a incense hall, he is no different from a member of the gang, and the younger brothers of the gang see him as respectfully as if they are seeing a godfather.

These people may not all respect him or think highly of him, but most of them are afraid of him and guard against him, because as early as when he was a Chinese arrester, his inhumane style of repaying every flaw brought him a lot of notoriety.

Zhu Nanjiang didn't care whether others respected him or feared him.He enjoys the feeling of being sought after by others, especially when he is walking on the road in a police uniform, saying "Inspector Zhu" to his left and right. Few people will mention that he is the adopted son of the warlord He Liren and the younger brother of He Tingyu.

It's just that this "inspector" is not for nothing. When one becomes an inspector, one has to work.

Zhu Nanjiang's boss is called Song Chenggeng, who works as a judicial consultant in the Industrial Board of Directors, and last year also served as the chief inspector.Song Chenggeng was very optimistic about Zhu Nanjiang, and because he was familiar with Luo Zhanyuan, he did not shy away from discussing "important matters" in front of him.

Zhu Nanjiang pricked up his ears and listened, knowing that the defeat of the Beiyang warlords was a foregone conclusion. The plutocrats in Jiangsu and Zhejiang overthrew the original Shanghai General Chamber of Commerce and set up a separate Shanghai Chamber of Commerce to support the Northern Expedition. The commander of the Northern Expedition unexpectedly It's Luo Zhanyuan's apprentice, and he has paid respect to Tie a few years ago!

I wish Nanjiang secretly happy, thinking that since Mr. Luo is on good terms with the commander, the world will be peaceful after the Northern Expeditionary Army captures Shanghai and overthrows the warlord government, and he doesn't have to run around all day to do that thankless job .

——Calling to overthrow the warlord every day, it’s all right now, it’s really about to fall.

Zhu Nanjiang felt that the trade union activities had never stopped since he became a police detective, and he had to arrest people every time there was trouble.But people can't finish catching, there will be another wave of catching, today they will be disturbed, and tomorrow they will continue to make trouble in another place.

In the past two months, probably because the Northern Expeditionary Army broke through Nanjing, Songhu was in a hurry, workers' strikes became increasingly fierce, and armed uprisings were even launched in China.Although the turmoil did not spread to the French Concession, Zhu Nanjiang, who was ordered to arrest the workers who had escaped into the concession, was also exhausted.

After half a month of this, the General Association issued a strike order in late March, and even Chinese workers in the concession area gathered in the Chinese community to participate in the uprising.The workers went on strike, the students went on strike, and the merchants went on strike. In just one day, the uprising armed forces captured the North Railway Station and took control of the entire Hua District.

Zhu Nanjiang was in the patrol room from morning to night, and hadn't seen Wen Changling for a long time.When the interim government committee was established at the end of the month and the revolutionary army entered Shanghai, he finally couldn't bear it anymore and went to Baoxing Road in casual clothes.

It's been half a month since Wen Changling lost a lot of weight, and his already sharp-edged face looked a bit fierce.Zhu Nanjiang told him about the recognition of the new government by the board of directors. He thought it would make him smile, but the other party still had a sad face.

"The masses are not only against the warlords, but also the feudal bourgeoisie and imperialism behind the warlords. But now the Wuhan government is colluding with the US imperialists and Japan to persecute workers and peasants, trying to implement a military dictatorship. The revolution is far from over!"

"Then when will it end?"

"Waiting for the day when the working class is no longer oppressed."

“As soon as the workers went on strike, there was chaos in the streets.”

"This society was originally supported by workers."

Zhu Nanjiang didn't understand politics, but he didn't want to appear too ignorant in front of Wen Changling, so whenever he asked a profound question, he pretended to be interested and asked a little.

Even if you ask, it’s hard to say anything further.

One night in mid-April, Zhu Nanjiang suddenly received a call from Luo Zhanyuan, ordering him to arrange for police officers to escort eleven cars from the French Concession to China.

Zhu Nanjiang saw that the car was full of men wearing blue shorts and white cloth armbands with the word "work" wrapped around their arms. Some of them looked familiar, obviously they were members of the gang, and they didn't know what they were going to do when they were fully armed in the middle of the night.

The cars set off in four batches, four of which entered Zhabei from the northern area of ​​the concession.Zhu Nanjiang felt flustered for some reason, and after returning to the mansion, he called Wen Changling's family.No one heard.

He was even more disturbed, and just as he was about to leave, a phone call came in. The political team ordered an overnight search of the revolutionaries in the concession!

Zhu Nanjiang returned to the patrol room, only then did he know that the Kuomintang military and police were aggressively attacking the workers' pickets in the Chinese community, and that Luo Zhanyuan's men had sneaked into Baoshan Road, where workers' activities are most frequent, half an hour ago.

Baoshan Road is where the editorial office and printing factory of Jiangnan Press are located.

Wen Changling once told him that although the old printing factory had been abandoned, the two new factories were still on Baoshan Road, next to the editorial office building, and only the library and management office had moved to Baoxing Road, which was a little farther away.

Zhu Nanjiang drove to Zhabei alone, but was interrogated by the military and police on the road, and did not stop him when he saw that the car was from the police station.

He still remembered the injured worker who accidentally rescued him a few years ago. That man obviously recognized Wen Changling, not only did he recognize him, but he trusted him so much that he was relieved to let him send a message based on just one name.

——Brother joined the trade union, and this is his own factory, so he must have come too.

When passing by Sanli, he saw the team with live ammunition, some were escorted to the side of the road, and some fell to the ground.This area is the key area of ​​the workers' uprising, and the military and police are searching each stronghold one by one.

Turning two corners is the former site of the printing factory. The gate was occupied by thugs armed with guns, and gunshots were heard from inside the building.

These people are not the group that Zhu Nanjiang sent out just now, Luo Zhanyuan should not be the only one involved in this matter inside and outside the concession.

Someone recognized him when he got out of the car: "Inspector Zhu, why are you here?"

Zhu Nanjiang was startled: "I was just about to ask you."

"The picket team plotted a riot, and Mr. Huang sent me to arrest people. Why, the Bureau of Labor and Management also came to help?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhu Nanjiang drew his gun and rushed into the building.The thugs on both sides didn't understand, but when they saw him dressed in police uniform, they all stepped back to make way for him.

There was chaos in the factory, and someone was injured.The rogue spies pushed the "rioters" out with guns, Zhu Nanjiang went upstream and squeezed from one end to the other.

This isn't, this isn't...he's not here.

One person shouted: "Look at the back door! Don't let anyone slip away!"

Zhu Nanjiang just went up to the second floor, when he heard the words, he turned over and jumped out of the window.

He remembered the location of the back door, and ran around the warehouse for 50 meters, and he saw a few people running along the wall.Just as he was about to chase after him, a short young man suddenly jumped out from the side, raised his stick and greeted him on the head.

Zhu Nanjiang dodged the blow, but received a solid stick on his back shoulder.

"Where is Wen Changling?" He ignored the pain and grabbed the other man's collar with his other hand.

"Go to hell! Beast!" The young man broke free and raised his stick again.

Zhu Nanjiang was in a hurry, and when he was about to fight back, a gunshot sounded in his ears, and the young man fell to the ground clutching his legs with a howl.

A long-faced man ran up to him with a happy expression on his face: "Master, are you here too?"

Zhu Nanjiang heard this address and knew that he was someone he had known when he first entered the patrol room, but now he didn't have time to recall who the other party was.

He raised his head and smiled at the man, and he shot through the center of his forehead with his hand.The young man behind him was dragging his legs to stand up, a little dazed seeing this scene.

Zhu Nanjiang wanted to ask him about Wen Changling's whereabouts, when footsteps approached in the distance.

"Damn...you go!" Gritting his teeth and cursing, he put the gun back in his waist, "Get lost!"

The young man didn't seem to have hurt his muscles, he took two steps back, turned around and ran towards the back door with a limp.The two companions who had run away just now turned back to support him, and the group disappeared outside the courtyard a few seconds later.

After waiting for a while, the footsteps did not follow, as if they had entered the warehouse.Zhu Nanjiang looked left and right, and quickly walked along the base of the wall through the back door.

The young men had disappeared, and there were sporadic gunshots in the distance across a row of houses.

Suddenly, out of the corner of my eye, a black Buick sedan drove slowly by.Zhu Nanjiang turned his head reflexively, only to see that the window glass was rolled down halfway, and the person behind the window forgot to take a look at him intentionally or unintentionally.

"...Han Xiangyue?"
