Although the Kuomintang troops used iron barrel tactics to encircle all the Communist base areas, there are still several blind spots.

Most of these places are deep forests and dangerous roads, which are not suitable for garrisoning troops. However, it is difficult for the armed forces of the Communist Party to rush out of them in large numbers. They can only infiltrate in small groups from the forest paths.

Trickles can merge into rivers, and the armed forces of the Communist Party use this method to break the whole into pieces and then break them into wholes. Thousands of horses.

Because the water was too shallow for big ships to dock, they used small sampans attached to the boats to transport all supplies such as food and cloth to the shore, and then the people on the shore carried all these supplies on their shoulders and carried them on their bodies. Back to the base camp deep in the mountains.

Sheng Muyi's cronies only knew that the eldest lady had made a big deal with the Communist Party, and he often heard about the Communists, but after seeing these people, he was still taken aback.

Although each of them was sallow and emaciated, and suffered from severe malnutrition, they were able to explode with amazing strength. Each of them carried two hundred catties of grain and a piece of cloth in their hands, and walked like flying.

This still uses a small sampan to unload the cargo, which will take a lot of time. If the big ship can only dock, he estimates that it will take less than two hours for the big ship to be completely unloaded.

The captain of the big ship couldn't bear to see these people's physical condition. He took out the dry food on his ship, gave them a share, and said: "You are hungry, eat something first, and then work when you are full. live."

These people looked at the dry food in his hand and politely declined.

Restricted by this unloading method, it took only one afternoon to unload all the cargo of a ship, and then these people disappeared mysteriously.

They didn't say a word to the owner of the cargo and the boss of the ship. This was an order so as not to implicate these people afterwards.

"Who are these people?" the cargo owner exclaimed.

"I think they are the same people as us, but it seems that they haven't had enough food for a while, and if they continue to be hungry like this, they may fall ill." Said the boss of the boat.

"With these grains, they will be able to recover," said the cargo owner.

That night, Mr. Dong received a telegram from the headquarters: The goods have been received, thank you A.

They also thought it was all due to Lu Ming alone, but they didn't know that Sheng Muyi, that is, Q, was the main contributor to this batch of goods.

"Oh, it's here so soon, everything is going well, right?" Lu Ming also felt a little miraculous.

"Traveling along the Yangtze River is fast, but luckily they have a smooth journey. This is destiny." Mr. Dong said.

"What fate, you're superstitious, it's unacceptable." An Yi retorted, and she laughed herself after speaking.

Lu Ming's hanging heart was half relieved. The other two ships loaded with arms were still on the way. I hope they can be so lucky.

People don't believe in fate when nothing happens, but they believe in fate when things happen.

Mr. Dong still has a doubt in his heart. Since he sent the opinions of comrades from the Shanghai Municipal Party Committee to the headquarters last time, he has not received a reply. It seems that the opinions at the headquarters are not unified.

He was a little afraid, lest the headquarters would issue a strong order to force the underground party in Shanghai to launch a riot. In that case, all comrades would be exposed under the eyes of the enemy.

"Lu Ming, I heard that the Kuomintang gave you a medal, and your action is worth a big medal. We have already asked the higher authorities to give you credit." Mr. Dong laughed.

"I'm doing what I'm willing to do, and I don't need to be rewarded." Lu Ming laughed.

"Lu Ming, I'm just joking with you. If our revolution succeeds and we establish a unified public ownership system, you need to hand over all your private property. Would you be willing?" An Yi said.

"Of course I am willing, the premise is that the country must be unified and there will be no more wars." Lu Ming laughed.

"But in that case, you will have no money and become like ordinary people. Would you like it?" An Yi asked.

"If you can really establish a system like the Soviet Union, it means that China has truly achieved unity, and a unified China will be extremely powerful. If you give me two choices, one is to be an ordinary citizen of a powerful country, One is to be a rich man whose country will perish, so I will choose the former without hesitation." Lu Ming said seriously.

Both Mr. Dong and An Yi felt a little surprised. They didn't expect that Lu Ming's awareness was higher than they imagined. They couldn't figure out what was in his mind. Could it be that he also pretended to be the Communist Party's theory of saving the country?

In fact, Lu Ming is not as enlightened as they imagined, it is only because he is well-informed and knows that only when the country is strong can the people live a stable life.

Lu Ming thinks that American citizens are the most enviable in the world. They may not have a lot of money, but because they are American citizens, they are respected in every corner of the world.

It is because the United States is a powerful country, and doctrines are secondary. The government system of a country is beyond the control of ordinary people.

On the contrary, because China is poor and weak, even the upper class and rich in China are not respected in the world, and their worth of millions is not as valuable as an American passport.

In Lu Ming's mind, this is the most intuitive manifestation of a country's strength and decline.

He is already considered a wealthy class in Shanghai, but sometimes he still has to take out a small American passport to put on a facade.

However, it is precisely because of the special convenience brought to him by the American passport that he feels an indescribable sadness and desolation.

For him, the strength of the country is above all else. As long as the country is strong, he is willing to donate all his property and live the life of an ordinary person.

Lu Ming looks forward to the day when China's status can be like that of the United States, and every Chinese can proudly say: I am a Chinese citizen no matter where they go in the world.

"Lu Ming, you have done so many things for us, why don't you join our organization directly? Do you have any concerns?" An Yi asked seriously.

"If I join voluntarily, people like me, will you trust me and accept me?" Lu Ming asked back.

An Yi was taken aback for a moment, then thought again, this is really a question, at least she couldn't give a clear answer for a while.

Mr. Dong also smiled wryly. If Lu Ming joined the Communist Party before entering the Fuxing Society, there might not be much resistance, but now that he is the leader of the Fuxing Society, it is hard to say.

Even if he voluntarily joins the Communist Party and submits an application, the organization will not approve it rashly, and identifying his identity will be a very cumbersome task.

Of course, people outside the party voluntarily support the revolutionary cause of the Communist Party. That is another concept, and the organization will not reject it.

In fact, the organization has maintained effective contact with Lu Ming. This is of course based on trust in him. There are not a few people like him who work for the party.

The party's united front regards people like Lu Ming as trustworthy friends, at least completely trustworthy in dealing with the Japanese.

As for the contradiction between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, it will exist for a long time. In the foreseeable time, no one can eliminate the other. There is still a long way to go before the reunification of the country.

In this process, everyone has to stand the test, even the comrades in the organization have to face the torture of faith at the critical moment of life and death.

Lu Ming's idea is actually very simple. Under the influence of Sheng Youde's view of "China-Japan conflict", he believes that the peace period will not last long, and the outbreak of a full-scale war between China and Japan will happen within five years.

So, what kind of situation will China face?The establishment of the anti-Japanese national united front proposed by the Communist Party is a vision with strategic foresight.

Starting from this point, Lu Ming sincerely hopes that the Communist Party will become bigger and stronger and become the mainstay of the future resistance against Japan.

"These problems can be solved gradually. The main thing is your subjective will. Are you sincerely and urgently asking to join our organization?" An Yi said further.

"I don't have this idea yet. I still want to retain my non-partisan identity. You are doing your revolution, and I will do my part. We are all doing things for the strength of the country, and the purpose is still the same." Lu Ming laughed.

"It would be great if the ship carrying the ammunition could be transported to the ground so quickly." Mr. Dong changed the topic.

"It should be soon. These two ships have the most experienced ship bosses and sailors from the Cao Gang." Lu Ming said.

Although he said this, he was actually worried about the same thing in his heart. Ning Zetao, An Gonggen, and his brothers were on board the ammunition ship.

The safety of these people is very important to Lu Ming, and nothing can go wrong.
