Age of Rebirth

Chapter 350: The Scapegoat

Under the violence of the military and police, the students who had just recovered from their shock gathered in front of the No. [-] dormitory building. Witnessing this tragic scene, the other four female students who survived the rape were already on the verge of collapse. They could only describe the atrocities committed by the tax police intermittently, and the pent-up anger of the students finally broke out uncontrollably.

They rushed out of the gate of the school and surrounded the arresting troops surrounded by the Northeast Army and the Seventeenth Route Army. Their calls for punishment for the murderer resounded through the city of Xi'an at dawn.

The matter was quickly reported to Yang Hucheng and Zhang Xueliang. Yang Hucheng was furious, and Zhang Xueliang was also furious. The two ordered the arresting troops of the provincial party headquarters to be disarmed on the spot and taken to the Xi'an Appeasement Office for interrogation.

The tragedy that happened at the Shaanxi Provincial Normal School quickly spread. All the schools in Xi'an City expressed solidarity with the students of the Provincial Normal School, and organized a police team to rush towards the normal school. [

Gu Shungang didn't know what happened until he was dragged out of the car by the soldiers. He logically guessed that Zhang Xueliang and Yang Hucheng were going to rebel. Unfortunately, he couldn't report this important situation to the Nanjing Central Party Headquarters in time.

Lin Muran instinctively felt that something was wrong. When these students were arrested, they were not so angry. Something must have gone wrong?

After he got out of the car, he asked Zhu Shouliang. Zhu Shouliang brought him and Gu Shungang to the corpses of the two female students who had been covered with white cloth. The bloodstains on the ground were shocking.

After listening to Zhu Shouliang and Zhao Zhizhou's words, Gu Shungang's head buzzed. He realized the seriousness of the situation. There was no such thing as the tax police. You Zhang Xueliang and Yang Hucheng, now detain me, in front of Generalissimo Jiang, how will you explain?Maybe he could even avenge the raid on the provincial party headquarters at the end of August!

However, the nature of the incident has changed. Even if a few students are killed on the spot, there is a way to end it, but such a thing is done too badly, which has already aroused public anger. Gu Shungang felt dazed and panicked. Within his control, the arresting team he led became the target of public criticism.

Lin Muran was also taken aback. He didn't expect that such a thing that aroused public indignation would happen. Now, it doesn't matter whether these students are suspected of being red or not. The public's attention and attention has already focused on the six murdered students. The most important thing is to quickly find out those evil tax policemen, hand them over to Zhang Yang, and leave the pawns to save the car, so that he and Gu Shungang can escape safely.

He was just going to chase after Zhu Shouliang and Zhao Zhizhou. He was familiar with these two people and they had a good friendship. Unlike Gu Shungang, Lin Muran was usually domineering and had a high opinion of himself. Both Zhu and Zhao can talk.

As soon as he lifted his foot, he was severely hit by the butt of a few gunshots on his back. He felt a burst of despair. The result was worse than he had imagined. Zhang Yang was determined to hold on to this matter. He and Gu Shungang For two people, the future is not good.

Gu Shungang over there was not much better, he was treated worse than Lin Muran, tied him firmly with a hemp rope, and kept him on the ground, with several guns on his head, his nose was bruised and his face was swollen. That appearance, no less suffering from flesh and blood.

The students from all over the normal school who supported the normal school have already arrived here one after another, and there are still a large number of students rushing over. The students are emotional, and the calls for severe punishment of the murderer are getting higher and higher.

The disarmed intelligence personnel of the Provincial Party Headquarters had already asked soldiers from the Northeast Army and the Seventeenth Route Army to drag them onto trucks. The students blocked the intersection and prevented the trucks from leaving. He promised to invite the two officers, Zhang and Yang, to give the students a satisfactory explanation, and then they were able to escape.

In fact, this is not the first time that Zhang Yang has had a conflict with the Shaanxi Provincial Party Headquarters. At the end of August and early September this year, the Zhongtong agents in the Shaanxi Provincial Party Headquarters arrested Zhang Xueliang's secretary and sent him to the northeast of Xi'an. University student representatives are actually three underground members of the Communist Party of China, Song Li, Ma Shaozhou, and Guan Peicang.

Zhang Xueliang was furious when he heard the news, and ordered his guard chief, Tan Hai, to lead the guard battalion and surround the Provincial Party Headquarters. Not only did he snatch the three people arrested, but he also searched and ransacked the Shaanxi Provincial Party Headquarters. In Chaotian, everyone in the office building of the Provincial Party Headquarters was detained in one room, causing the Provincial Party Headquarters to be paralyzed for five days. This is the famous "Yan Wan Incident."

At that time, Generalissimo Jiang was concentrating on dealing with the Guangdong and Guangxi incidents. The elite troops of the Central Army had also been transferred to the front lines of Hunan, Guangdong, and Guangxi to confront the Guangdong-Guangxi coalition forces.

Under the mediation of Chairman Jiang and senior members of the state government, the Shaanxi Provincial Party Headquarters made a major concession. Not only did it publicly announce the crimes of the three arrested Northeastern University students in the newspaper, but it also apologized to Zhang Xueliang in person. Since then, the prejudice between Zhang Yang and the Shaanxi Provincial Party Headquarters has deepened, and it has gradually become incompatible.

On the one hand, Zhang Xueliang and Yang Hucheng called the Nanjing Nationalist Government, explaining the truth about the incident at the Shaanxi Provincial Normal School, and asked for a satisfactory answer from the Nanjing National Government. wait.

Because Gu Shungang and Lin Muran were the leaders of this search and arrest operation, they could not escape their involvement in such a serious incident, and were locked in a room alone, waiting for Zhang Xueliang and Yang Hucheng to deal with their opinions in the dark before making a decision.

After being identified by the victimized female student on the spot, the 28 tax police officers in that team were pulled out one by one, tied up, and put aside alone. Local people in Shaanxi can't wait to shoot these things that are not as good as animals. The muzzle of the guns pushes out a pimple on the forehead of these guys.

It's time like this, the little captain, relying on his brother-in-law who is backed by the head of the tax police of Shaanxi Province, is not willing to let go, struggling desperately, and yelling, "Isn't it just playing with a few poor students?" What a big deal, I have never seen such a woman, I want to see my brother-in-law, if you dare to touch my finger, my brother-in-law will not spare you!" [

People can't see the fire, don't know life and death, this is the greatest sorrow, and he doesn't have to think about it with a pig's brain. The brother-in-law was able to scold the boy's ancestors for eight generations, and he was sweating coldly, worried and fidgeting, for fear that Zhang Xueliang and Yang Hucheng would settle accounts with him.

Yang Hucheng walked out of the Appeasement Office building with a few guards. This kid knew Yang Hucheng, a prominent figure in Shaanxi, a citizen of Xi'an, and military and police officials. He didn't know that.

He thought a savior was coming, and shouted desperately: "Director Yang, for my brother-in-law's sake, let me go. It's easy for you to talk to my brother-in-law, isn't it?" Yang Hucheng had to save face for his brother-in-law's golden signboard.

Who is my brother-in-law?That's hands and eyes open to the sky, and the superior directly contacted Song Ziwen, the uncle of the country. You Yang Hucheng didn't dare to do anything to me, so you tied me up only by pretending to be in front of your subordinates.

But the rope is too tight, and I feel uncomfortable all over. When did we suffer this kind of crime? It was all done by these stinky soldiers. I almost broke my arm. When I go out, sir, I have to You can't find someone to do it.

From the interrogation records, Yang Hucheng knew that those beasts did the evil things. He just wanted to see what kind of faces these tax police officers relying on the power of the uncle of the country.

As soon as I arrived in the yard, I heard the boy shouting and carried out his brother-in-law. I immediately understood that this boy was the leader.

Yang Hucheng's face was livid, his teeth were gritting "clucking", the muscles on his face bulged out of anger, and his eyes had a ghastly cold light.

Walking in front of this boy, seeing Yang Hucheng responding to his quarrel, this boy thought it was his brother-in-law's name, and suppressed Yang Hucheng, his attitude became more and more arrogant, and he couldn't even hide the smug look on his face.

Yang Hucheng stared at him for a long time, making his heart tremble. Suddenly, Yang Hucheng pulled out his gun and aimed a shot at the boy's head. There was a "bang" gunshot. Such a short distance, such a powerful impact With force, the boy fell backwards, his white brain mixed with bright red blood, splashing several soldiers around him.

No one thought that Yang Hucheng, who is usually calm and dull, would have such a violent side. Yang Hucheng turned around, without even looking at this garbage, and ordered the soldiers: "Drag it out and feed it to the dogs, don't dirty my place!"

There was silence in the yard, and Yang Hucheng's shot also showed his attitude. The tax policemen who did evil on the female students last night were paralyzed on the ground at that time, and a few guys even killed them on the spot. I wet my crotch, and I no longer have the rampant energy when doing evil.

At noon, the situation further escalated. Tens of thousands of students surrounded the Shaanxi Appeasement Office building, and there were bursts of angry shouts. cold sweat.

At this time, Chairman Jiang was beyond his reach. The elite troops of the Central Army had just left the front lines of Hunan, Guangdong and Guangxi, and were on their way to Shaanxi. Yang Hucheng called back.

If it is verified to be true, the law should be rectified on the spot, and Zhang Yang and Zhang Yang will carry out this matter on behalf of the central government and explain everything to the people.

Gu Shungang, Chairman of the Shaanxi Provincial Party Committee, as a leading officer, was able to restrain his subordinates when performing official duties, which led to this matter.

Events have to have a result, and someone has to take responsibility for the result, a black pot cannot fall to the ground, Gu Shungang unfortunately became a scapegoat, and the foundation of his business in Shaanxi for many years fell apart, and he left sadly, in vain.
