Scholars in the courtyard.

Chapter 2168: Died of Vomiting Blood
Machinery factory.

When Mr. Qian called, Liu Huaimin picked up the phone immediately.

After learning about the situation in Shanghai, Liu Huaimin was no less excited than Wang Lao. He hung up the phone and ran out. He told Yang Youning first, and then they both ran to the workshop.

Along the way, the two were very happy, and when they met Chen Gong and Wang Guodong, they couldn't help but talk about it.

The news of the great victory spread immediately, and cheers and shouts of "Long live the victory" were heard continuously.

At this moment, Yang Xiaotao was busy producing Jinglei engines in the workshop. Everyone was busy in the workshop during this period, so as the leader, he naturally had to lead by example.

What's more, if we were to say who has the most comprehensive skills here, it would be no one else but him.

The master chefs who came to help were also impressed by Yang Xiaotao's skills. Now these master chefs dared to disobey others' words, but no one dared to underestimate Yang Xiaotao's words.

This is the rule for capable people.

In the workshop, Yang Xiaotao was directing the assembly of the engine. During this period, the production output was increasing, but the assembly progress was slow. The reason was that everyone was not familiar with the design of the engine.

Yang Xiaotao, who was busy, suddenly heard a shout from behind him. He looked up and saw Liu Huaimin and Yang Youning leading a group of people running over. Then they came up to him and said solemnly, "Xiaotao, comrades, we have won a great victory in Shanghai."

"Our Thunder won a great victory."

There was a moment of silence, and everyone was confused!
"Comrades, we have won the battle!"

Yang Youning shouted again.

Then suddenly there was an eruption like a tsunami.

Yang Xiaotao's face was filled with joy, when suddenly someone rushed towards him. Before he could react, he felt his body being thrown into the air.

……

After coming out of the machinery factory, Yang Xiaotao felt lighter.

I even felt that the air became clearer.

These days, my beard has grown a circle and my whole body looks like it is rusted. I urgently need some moisturizing.

The car was driving slowly on the road. Yang Xiaotao glanced at the green trees on both sides and realized that spring had come.

When they returned to the courtyard, everyone was curious when they saw Yang Xiaotao like this.

His beard is untidy, which is totally different from his previous image.

However, it looks more mature.

When I entered the house, Ran Qiuye was cooking for the children at home.

Yang Xiaotao's sudden return surprised her.

The children even ran over and asked what they were doing.

Yang Xiaotao picked them up one by one and poked them with his beard, then smiled at Ran Qiuye, "I'm back."

Ran Qiuye gathered her hair and smiled sweetly, "Welcome home."

Eat, shave, take a shower, and change into clean clothes
Under the cover of night, in the room, in the darkness, two people told each other about their lovesickness.

They hugged each other tightly, without much communication, but everything was implied.

Senior officer.

Villa halfway up the mountain.

The sinister old man sat quietly at the table with a briefing in front of him.

Three hours ago, he was still waiting for good news at the airport.

He was even fantasizing about what kind of speech he would use when the plane returned after completing its mission.

When the mission is completed, how to report the results to superiors.

He even planned to continue to blow up all the industrial areas along the coast.

But unexpectedly, a plane crashed into the runway with smoke, turning his beautiful mood into a gloomy one.

When the pilot was brought forward and told the situation, he almost pulled out a gun and killed the impostor.

But before he could draw his gun, he felt dizzy.

When I woke up again, I was in the villa.

He came to the study in a daze, and the secretary brought the battle report to the table.

Just as the pilot said, it was a trap.

This had been part of the plan even from the time they were enticed to blow up the shipyard.

No, it should have been planned since the other party started developing gas turbines.

He thought of someone who had this kind of strategy.

Only he can plan the overall situation accurately.

And I was just a chess piece manipulated by that person, walking step by step into the trap set by that person.

What he thought was infallible, what he thought was a sure win, turned out to be a little sweet treat given to him by the other party.

Silly, I am so stupid.

Just cooperate with the opponent and send out all the strongest forces.

Only one out of a hundred survives.

Even the two most advanced aircraft were taken on board. How could he explain this to his financial sponsor?
It's over, it's over.

After this incident, he forgot everything he had worked so hard for.

His official career also came to an end.

It’s over.

Everything for him is over.

He could even imagine that the person who was going to catch him was on the way.

Finished!

The old man closed his eyes in pain.

Looking back on my life, I have been determined to serve my country since I was a child. When I grew up, I entered the secret front and fought against domestic warlords and foreign forces.
Just as the saying goes, he fought against the heaven and the earth all his life, but he never expected that he would lose in a fight with people.

And thinking about the fights with each other over the years.

It seems that there has never been a complete success.

Hahaha

"How sad! How can we live in such a miserable state?"

"Hahaha!"

The sinister old man suddenly burst into laughter, and as he laughed, his body began to tremble.

His eyes suddenly opened wide, and his eyeballs seemed to bulge out.

The next second, the sound stopped suddenly.

puff~
He spat out a mouthful of blood onto the table and collapsed.

In his last moments, the old man looked at the rope beside the table. Outside the room, the female secretary heard the noise inside and hesitated a little, but finally decided to wait outside.

The person in the room had a strange personality, and she didn't dare to go in without the bell ringing.

Her predecessor entered the ship without permission and was sunk into the sea the next day.

So, without orders, she didn't dare to go in.

The secretary sat at the desk, propped up his head with his hand, and prepared to take a nap.

The secretary was awakened by the sound of footsteps in the corridor. He subconsciously looked at the time on the wall. It was two o'clock in the morning. It was actually very late.

I subconsciously looked back into the house, luckily there was no movement inside.

Just as I was feeling thankful, three figures suddenly appeared in the corridor.

The secretary frowned because he didn't know these three people and they were definitely not from the villa.

"who are you?"

The secretary stood up and asked, and three people came closer. The leader was a middle-aged man wearing sunglasses, with regular features, a well-proportioned body, and a revolver on his waist.

Faced with the secretary's questions, the man ignored them and walked straight into the house.

Before the secretary could ask more questions, she saw the young man on the left take out a red notebook, wave it in front of the secretary, and then walk forward.

The secretary's heart trembled, because he was the one in charge of internal investigations.

My heart immediately fell to the bottom.

crunch
The middle-aged man pushed open the door, and three people were standing at the door.

The secretary walked forward carefully, and when he saw the dried blood stains on the snow-white carpet and the old man lying on the table with his eyes wide open, he screamed unconsciously in his throat.

But the next second, a cold metal was stuffed into her mouth, making her dare not make any sound.

It was still the young man who had just taken out his ID, holding a gun in his hand and making a silence gesture with his left hand at his mouth.

The secretary didn't dare to make a sound immediately, but his body was shaking violently and saliva was dripping from the muzzle of the gun.

The young man still kept the gun in his hand, and even looked at the secretary with interest, revealing an evil smile.

"Let's go, people are useless."

The middle-aged man walked in to check and found that the person was already dead.

He walked to the door and glanced at the secretary, "Take her away."

"Find out the situation of the crew members' families."

The young man nodded immediately, "Leave it to me."

……

Sijiucheng, Siheyuan.

The early morning sunlight shone into the room through the window, the thin quilt was lifted, and Yang Xiaotao opened his eyes.

My eyes kept scanning the house: windows, walls, roof, cabinets, radio.
Everything feels so familiar.

My wife was still sleeping beside me.

Last night was a bit long.

She is a little tired.

After cooking in the morning and the family finished eating, Yang Xiaotao rode his bike out to get a haircut.

Then he went home at noon and played with his children for a while in the afternoon. Just when Yang Xiaotao was about to read a book, a familiar voice suddenly came from the entrance of the street alley.

Then I heard a report about the battle in Shanghai.

No exaggeration, no cover-up, everything is true.

The air was filled with a joyful atmosphere, and passionate vocals came from the loudspeakers.

As soon as the news came out, it spread all over the country.

One piece of exciting good news after another spread quickly through radio waves and newspapers.

Of course, the specific process will not be too detailed, and the specific data will not be too accurate. Even the photos that appear in the newspaper are just a blurry image of thunder.

Everything remains mysterious.

Only mystery can give the enemy the greatest deterrence.

At this moment, even though Ran Qiuye had known it for a long time, her eyes looking at her man were still full of pride.

She must be worthy of such an outstanding man.

The next second, Ran Qiuye looked at Duanwu who was riding on Wangcai. If this kid had half, no, a fraction of his father's ability, she would have less to worry about.

Duanwu, who was working on the side, suddenly felt a chill on his back. He looked around, and when he met his mother's eyes, he shuddered unconsciously.

At night, apart from the more wailing sounds of the Dragon Boat Festival, nothing else was different.

Same as last night.

The next day, Yang Xiaotao came to the machinery factory refreshed.

Jing Lei achieved such good results that their Red Star Machinery Factory’s mission has been completed.

Then comes the rest of the work.

By the way, there is also research work on machine tools.

The last thing I promised Alfat has been delayed for more than half a year. It’s time to resolve it.

Back in the office, Yang Xiaotao had just sat down when Yang Youning walked in.

"Xiao Tao, let me ask you something."

"Old Yang, just speak directly. Don't rub your hands. It's easy for people to misunderstand."

"Go away! What misunderstanding? What can a grown man like me want from you?"

Yang Xiaotao rolled his eyes and said, "It's because you're a grown man that I'm afraid."

Yang Youning was stunned, then snorted coldly and sat aside.

After a while, he took out a pack of cigarettes, and after they lit up, he asked, "We have contributed this time and completed the task. We will be commended by the higher-ups."

"I want to ask, do you plan to produce this Thunder Engine?"

"I've been thinking about this for a long time, but I still can't make up my mind. I want to hear what you think."

Yang Xiaotao was not surprised by Yang Youning's question.

In fact, he had thought about this question last night: whether the machinery factory should produce engines in the future.

But after careful consideration, Yang Xiaotao felt that it would be better to give up this piece of cake.

"Lao Yang, if I say I don't plan to produce in the factory, what do you think?"

Yang Youning was a little stunned for a moment, then he quickly reacted, "Whatever you think, that's it."

"Lao Liu and I fully support this matter."
