After half a month, the Fang system to the north of Zhencheng collapsed, and the Northern Expedition made phased progress.
In April, when the situation was at a high point, the situation in Shanghai changed, and the whole country was in an uproar.
The rain in Shanghai spread northward.
When Yue Xiangli found Ji Huaimin, he and his companions were hiding from pursuit.
It was dark at night and the whole city was filled with gunfire. Ji Huaimin was shot in the arm and the box he was holding fell, with papers scattered all over the place.
In the dark, Lin Pingyi and his men knocked out those who were chasing them with guns and dragged them into the alley.
When Ji Huaimin's companions saw another group of people in plain clothes and holding pistols surrounding them, they were a little panicked.
Yue Xiangli picked up the box, stuffed the paper in it and closed it, then threw two packets of medicine into Ji Huaimin's arms, "Let's go, the boat is at the ferry, have a safe trip, someone will pick you up on the way."
"Just tell me where you're going."
Yue Xiangli leaned close to his ear and said, "I asked you if the roast duck tasted good, and you said someone had pestered you to buy it before."
"What are you going to do?"
After he left, the gun must have been pointed at Yue Xiangli.
"My soldiers took the city first. They wanted to reduce my power. Everything else is just an excuse. They can't actually do anything to me."
Ji Huaimin glanced at him one last time and said, "Some people believe it, some people don't. My clothes are half wet from the rain. Thank you."
Yue Xiangli took off his coat and took out the military uniform hidden next to him in the dark.
The other soldiers also quickly changed their uniforms, and the sound of neat military boots rang out in the alley.
"Report! Someone fainted in the alley!"
"Go and take a look." Lin Pingyi's voice.
Another group of people in dark blue uniforms rushed over, "What are you doing huddled here?"
The firelight illuminated the deep alley.
Lin Pingyi had just asked people to wake up those who were knocked unconscious.
"Where are the people? Didn't I tell you to intercept them?" A man who looked like an officer kicked the leg of the squad leader who had just woken up.
"We were knocked unconscious as soon as we entered the alley."
The officer looked at Lin Pingyi and asked, "Did you make him unconscious?"
Lin Pingyi lazily leaned against the wall, looking down at his gun, "You are accusing someone without any evidence? We passed by and saw that they were fainted, so we kindly helped them up."
"You shouldn't be here. We will take over the city from now on."
"Then where should we be? The Fang clan still has some remnants of soldiers in the city. For the safety of the army, we were on patrol and came here when we heard the gunshots."
"Lin Pingyi, what are you dawdling about?" A cold voice came from outside the alley.
Lin Pingyi stood up straight, ran to Yue Xiangli and saluted, "Reporting to the commander, I saw someone fainted while on patrol, and was about to drag him out, but I didn't expect that Captain Xu slandered us and said that we made the person faint!"
Yue Xiangli looked at Peng Litian beside him and said, "General Peng, we are the first to capture the city, so we should be the first to clean up the remaining soldiers. Isn't it too strange for your people to show up?"
Peng Litian glanced at the dark masses of soldiers behind Yue Xiangli and said, "A thief has appeared in the army. We are dealing with him."
"Then you guys handle it, let's go." Yue turned to Li.
Lin Pingyi followed behind him, and the soldiers turned around in an orderly manner.
Peng Litian kicked the wall.
An open threat! Sooner or later, I will cut it clean!
In the yard, Ning Sangyu was drinking tea when suddenly a large group of soldiers with rifles squeezed in, with the black muzzles of their guns pointed at her.
The light bulb flickered.
Yue Xiangchen came out of the house, Ning Sangyu looked at him, "Twist it."
"Okay, sister-in-law."
The leader, Cao Qinghuai, had a fake smile on his face, "I'm sorry, Madam Yue, we received a report that you might be in danger, so our commander specially sent someone to protect you in the camp."
Ning Sangyu took a sip of tea, slowly leaned over, took out the gun on his leg, pulled the safety catch and fired a shot into the air.
