Spy Wars: I can get rewards by being a bully!

Chapter 947 Liu Tonggang Jinmen Attends the Banquet

Liu Tonggang was very efficient. He did what he said. He took his adjutant and attendants with him, and drove two Studebakers in front to lead the way. The guards in two trucks followed behind. He sat in the Studebaker in the middle and headed straight for Tianjin.

As soon as they left the city, the cautious Liu Tonggang assigned another truck to the front, thinking that this would ensure absolute safety.

Unexpectedly, just after passing Xiacang, two groups of people rushed out from both sides of the road and opened fire without saying a word.

The two cars of guards Liu Tonggang had were similar to his personal guards in the past. They were either brought from his hometown or were the brothers-in-law of one or the godson of another.

We are close, and I can be assured of their loyalty, but the only thing is that their fighting ability is not that good.

They really didn't expect that even though they were almost at Baodi, which was nominally under the jurisdiction of Commander Lin, there were still guerrillas there!

The firepower from the opposite side was very fierce. In a short time, the guards were either killed or injured.

Liu Tonggang was so scared that he almost peed his pants. There was no cover in this place, and the cars in front and behind him were all hit and unable to move, and the road was blocked.

If this official is not dismissed yet and he is beaten to death here, it would be a huge loss for me!

Just when they were feeling desperate, another team came from the south. They were all wearing black uniforms. They were well-armed and well-managed. They quickly occupied advantageous terrain and opened fire on the guerrillas.

Seeing that they were defeated, the guerrillas left behind several corpses and fled in a hurry.

Then, a leader of the black-uniformed team stepped forward and said, "Are you Commander Liu's men? I'm from the Tianjin Coordination Bureau. Commander Lin received your telegram saying Commander Liu is coming to Tianjin. There's been guerrilla activity in Baodi lately, so they've asked us to guard the route!"

When Liu Tonggang heard this, his eyes became wet.

Mr. Lin, you are a good man!

Although he was angry, he was still very particular about his work. If he hadn't sent this team here, he would have lost his life here today!

Tianjin, Military Police Headquarters.

"Niu San'er, how was the fight?"

"Master, the results are very good. Although this team was trained in secret, they have the foundation of those homeless children in Peking. They are loyal, brave, and most importantly, smart. This time they also brought some death row prisoners, who were beaten to death and left there. The other side didn't notice anything. Now the people sent by the Assistance Bureau have met with Liu Tonggang."

"Alright, we have the visible power of the Assistance Bureau and the Police Corps, as well as this special force, and Xie Quan's pseudo-Third Division. We are quite strong. What about Liu Tonggang?"

"According to the news we received earlier, Liu Tonggang was terrified. After being rescued, he is naturally grateful to you. He will arrive in Tianjin tonight."

"Didn't he suspect that this was someone I sent?"

After Lin Ze asked, the two of them laughed.

Sometimes, the truth is simple and far away.

Even if Liu Tonggang was beaten to death now, he would not believe that Master Lin would send people to ambush him.

In everyone's view, there was no need for Lin Ze to do this. Wang Zhulin's ancestral tomb was dug up, so he could sue Liu Tonggang, but killing him for no apparent reason was not necessary. That was not Lin Ze's style.

You can ask around in North China, everyone knows that Master Lin is a very particular person!

When the lights came on, Liu Tonggang arrived in Tianjin with his remaining troops.

Lin Ze personally greeted him. As soon as they met, he said with shame, "Commander! To be honest, I'm sorry for you. If I had replied to the telegram earlier, you wouldn't have come to Tianjin. Now that something like this has happened, how can I feel at ease? Quickly arrange for a hospital to treat the brothers. I've prepared some light wine to calm you down."

Liu Tonggang was half frightened and half moved. He held Lin Ze's hand tightly and said, "Master Lin! They say a friend in need is a friend indeed. This time, it was our security forces who were at fault. Alas! Even if you had replied to the telegram, I would have had to come to Tianjin to apologize in person. Who would have thought that the guerrillas would appear right under my nose? If you hadn't sent someone in time, you and I would have been gone!"

Lin Ze comforted him, "Commander, good fortune has its own blessing. Come, I will send someone to arrange for your brothers. Let's take our seats, take our seats."

Arriving at the banquet hall, the host and guest took their seats. Liu Tonggang then said with difficulty, "Ahem, Master Lin, you know my men, they're all rough and tumble guys. We in the security forces are having a hard time right now. The headquarters has stopped allocating funds to us. Although the front army still allocates funds, the funds are pitifully small..."

Before he finished speaking, someone at the table snorted, "We're short of money, who doesn't? Are you going to dig up other people's ancestral graves just because you need money?"

Liu Tonggang felt very embarrassed when his face was criticized.

Lin Ze explained: "This is President Wang Zhulin."

Liu Tonggang gritted his teeth, stood up and left the table, bowing deeply. "So it was Mr. Wang who made the remarks. This matter is wrong in every way, and it's all the fault of my security forces. All those involved must be apprehended. Those who deserve to be shot will be shot, and those who deserve to be imprisoned will be imprisoned. I will show no mercy. I will fund the repair of the destroyed tombs and erect new monuments. I will personally pay my respects and offer my condolences to the deceased."

Everyone at the table looked sideways.

It turns out that Liu Tonggang was able to take the position because Qi Ying was assassinated. Before, everyone was not optimistic about him and thought that he would not be able to stay in this position for long.

I didn't expect that this person could really hold the position of commander of the security forces. Now it seems that he is really capable. In such an occasion, he is so humble to the president of a chamber of commerce, which shows that he is flexible.

Wang Zhulin didn't know what to say, so he just turned his head away.

Lin Ze tried to smooth things over, saying, "Alright! Commander Liu is a true gentleman. He spoke these words sincerely, without hiding anything. Chairman Wang, please calm down. The incident has already happened, and the key is how to remedy it. Killing someone is not enough. Commander Liu was ambushed and nearly died today in order to apologize to you. This sincerity is enough."

Liu Tonggang was grateful and thought that Master Lin really helped him out. He was obviously afraid of being blamed by Master Lin, but Master Lin said that he was there to apologize to President Wang.

He bowed again and said, "Master Lin is absolutely right. Please calm down, Mr. Wang. If you have any other conditions, please feel free to propose them. Our security forces will comply with them."

At this point, Wang Zhulin had no choice but to express his opinion.

In fact, the ancestral grave that was dug up in his hometown had little to do with him.

This branch of their people moved to Tianjin several generations ago. Starting from his great-grandfather, the ancestral tombs are in Tianjin. Before, when he received a letter from his hometown saying that the family tombs had been dug up, he didn't want to care about it. It was only when Lin Ze asked about it that he changed his mind and came out to be the victim.

He raised his glass with a sullen face and said, "Master Lin has spoken, how can I not do it? I hope Commander Liu will keep his word. We will meet again in the future."

Liu Tonggang cursed in his heart, how dare a businessman be so arrogant!

But he smiled and said, "Then I would like to thank President Wang."
