Chapter 1215 Chongqing News
That night, Ning Zhiheng drafted a telegram to Chongqing, and briefly reported everything that happened in the consulate today. He was almost certain that this poisoning incident must have been done by the Military Control Commission.
As early as the time to come to Nanjing, Ning Zhiheng knew that after the envoys entered Nanjing, such as the assassination would continue, but he did not expect that the Nanjing station would move so quickly and the noise would be so great.
Speaking of which, I really underestimated the Nanjing Station. Their previous performance was really poor and they were chased by the Japanese and puppet intelligence departments and had nowhere to settle down. However, they still had such a chess piece lurking in the Japanese. It seemed that the Military Control Bureau still had the foundation, but it was a pity that after this operation, such important chess piece would have no value.
The next day, the poisoning incident in the Japanese consulate spread throughout Nanjing. Because there were many guests at the banquet, such news could not be concealed at all. The Japanese and Nanjing government ordered the restriction of publicity agencies and major newspapers and magazines, prohibiting the publication of relevant news, and attempting to minimize the impact, but the effect was not good.
Major intelligence departments of the Japanese and puppet have also begun to conduct a thorough search of Nanjing City, and the military has cooperated with all their strength. The streets and alleys are covered with military police and spies. The situation is in panic in Nanjing City, and the situation becomes tense again.
In the office of the Chongqing Military Bureau, the bureau director couldn't help but sigh after reading the two telegrams in his hand. He felt very regretful. He raised his hand and handed the telegram to Bian Ze, who was beside him, sighed: "Look! It's such a great opportunity, it's such a pity!"
Bianze took the message and checked it carefully. The two messages were calls from the Military Intelligence Bureau Nanjing Station and the Shanghai Intelligence Department, but they reported the same thing, both were poisoning incidents at the Japanese Consulate in Nanjing last night.
But as usual, the information from the Shanghai Intelligence Department is obviously more detailed than the reports from the Nanjing Station.
The narration at the Nanjing Station only shows that Shang Zhenyun's failed to intercept the envoys in Zhenjiang, and then activated the "hunter" who had been lurking for many years and poisoned the information at the welcome banquet. As for what happened later, it is unknown.
In the narrative of the Shanghai Intelligence Department, the follow-up of the operation was reported. At the banquet, Japanese and puppet personnel were poisoned, with as many as 34 people. Unfortunately, the three main members of the envoy regiment and the top Japanese and puppet leaders all avoided the poisoning operation. Most of these poisoned people were middle-level personnel, and because the dose of poison was insufficient, the poisoned people had mild symptoms. On the way to the hospital, the Japanese Consulate Deputy Consul Mingyama Uchida and Yusuke Miyashita were killed. Others were rescued in the hospital. The subsequent situation was being investigated. In the end, the intelligence department focused on reminding the Japanese that the poisoned person was Zhan Yuanliang, a staff member of the Japanese Consulate. He judged that this person was a lurking person in the Military Control Commission and his identity had been exposed. The Japanese and puppet intelligence departments will conduct a thorough search operation in Nanjing City. We hope that the headquarters will remind the Nanjing Station to be prepared for response.
It is obvious that the work of the Intelligence Department is faster and more accurate, and has made very detailed supplements to the report of the Nanjing Station.
After reading these, Bian Ze shook his head and said, "It's a pity. If this is taken away, Nanjing will be paralyzed immediately, which is enough to shock all parties. It is definitely a magical achievement."
The director smiled bitterly and said, "Yes, things don't go as expected. This time the envoy entered Nanjing, and the consulate was responsible for the reception. Such an opportunity was too rare. This made Shang Zhenyun decide to use the "hunter" lurking in the consulate. But you also saw the final result, and it was still very unsatisfactory. This was the nail I buried with my own hands many years ago. It finally came in handy. It was a pity that it was ruined like this!"
Bizawa also felt a secretly regretful. You should know that the Japanese are very cautious about the Chinese. It is conceivable how valuable it is to install a nail in a key department like the Japanese consulate. No wonder the director feels so distressed.
He comforted him: "Minister, there are always things that happen, and you don't have to worry about it. Besides, this time, so many people have been poisoned. Although there are no big fish, there are still some harvests. At least, I also taught the Japanese a lesson, hit their arrogance, and let them know that even in Nanjing, the power of our Military Control Commission should not be underestimated, and the deterrence effect is still quite large!"
The director smiled bitterly when he heard this, but was still quite disappointed. Nanjing Station was ordered to assassinate the envoys, and finally activated the intelligence officer "hunter" who had been dormant for many years, and he took a desperate bet. This was originally a great opportunity, but unfortunately, he finally got a few small fish. In this way, he still suffered a little loss.
He shook his head and continued, "After this operation, the Japanese will definitely be more careful. It is difficult for us to have another chance. Moreover, Shang Zhenyun reported that the hunter had escaped safely and the Nanjing Station had retreated to Jiangbei. He could not operate in Nanjing for a short period of time, so the assassination operation came to an end for the time being, and we will talk about the situation in the future."
"How do you respond to the intelligence department?"
"Let them pay close attention to the follow-up situation and find out the losses of the Japanese and Nanjing government, especially the biochemical expert Keisuke Ueno. The intelligence department reported that this person was also one of the poisoned people. If he could poison him, this operation would not be a loss!"
Bianze said with emotion: "I understand. Their intelligence capabilities are really great. Even in Nanjing, they can find such news so quickly."
"More than that, these are all small matters. Recently, the Intelligence Department has major intelligence and exact news. The Japanese are preparing to launch a large-scale attack on Changsha again!"
"What? Is this true?" Bian Ze couldn't help but ask in disbelief.
Since the Battle of Changsha two years ago, although China and Japan have been fighting continuously, they have been partial battles. They are basically in a state of confrontation on the front scene. After so long, both sides have been a little lazy. Now, they are naturally very surprised to hear this news.
The director is right. In comparison, such military intelligence with a huge impact is the most heavyweight intelligence, and its value is enough to affect the entire war situation.
The director nodded gently and said solemnly: "There are major changes within Japan. The southward advance plan is implemented in advance. The Central China dispatched troops intend to weaken our strength after withdrawing troops. This is reasonable. It is estimated that this offensive will be launched soon. I have reported it to the Military Commission to let the troops on the front line of Changsha prepare for the war urgently, so that the Japanese will not be caught off guard and suffer a great loss."
Bianze nodded and said, "Yes, I remember that it was the intelligence department that we avoided the Japanese attack on northern Jiangxi. This time we got the news again, so lucky!"
That night, in a safe house in Jiangbei area, Shang Zhenyun and Zhan Yuanliang sat opposite each other.
At this time, they had learned about the follow-up situation of some poisoning incidents, and the headquarters also sent a notice in a telegram. Shang Zhenyun knew that the action was not satisfactory and the effect was far from meeting previous expectations.
He sighed softly and said to Zhan Yuanliang sitting opposite him: "Brother, I'm sorry for you. The ten-year lurking career has ended like this. It's all because I'm too anxious..."
"Don't say that, it's also my bad luck. I've been lurking for so long. I've been messed up in the only action I've done. I'm ashamed!" Zhan Yuanliang waved his hand and smiled bitterly. He looked at Shang Zhenyun, "Webmaster, I'm actually very grateful to you. Over the years, my life has not been easy. I'm worried every day, walking on thin ice, and I have to sleep with one eye open. Every time I look at my children and wives, I'm afraid that one day I will implicate them and be harmed by the Japanese. Do you know? The moment I left the consulate, I felt completely relaxed, as if the stones that have been pressed on my heart for the past few years have disappeared. It's really unspeakable pleasure, haha!"
This is the truth of Zhan Yuanliang. He has been lurking inside the enemy for ten years. The psychological pressure is naturally unimaginable to ordinary people. He is not a saint, but also fears death. He is even more concerned about the safety of his family. Fortunately, all this has passed now.
When Shang Zhenyun heard this, his mood suddenly improved a lot. Looking at Zhan Yuanliang, he couldn't help but smile and said, "So, are you still grateful to me?"
"I really have to thank you. I finally got relieved. Webmaster, what should I do next?"
"You are exposed, what else can you do? And the headquarters has issued an order, you must rush back to Chongqing headquarters, and your position will be arranged by the bureau chief himself. I will arrange your whole family to set off as soon as possible. Brother, there will be a bright future!"
Through the telegram from the headquarters, Shang Zhenyun realized that he had already been in sight. Zhan Yuanliang was actually very close to him. It turned out that he was one of the teams of the bureau chief in his early years. His hidden task was arranged by the bureau chief himself. Speaking of which, his future future would be above him. Maybe there would be some reliance at any time, otherwise he would not be so polite to Zhan Yuanliang.
"By the way, webmaster, do you know what Keisuke Ueno is doing? When I left, I put sake near his seat. I wonder if he had poisoned him?" Zhan Yuanliang was obsessed with the second goal of the implementation.
Shang Zhenyun was also not sure. His intelligence sources were actually very few. Apart from the fact that there were several intelligence officers in Nanjing, he could only rely on the information conveyed to him by the headquarters.
The intelligence officers in Nanjing did not have this intelligence ability and only knew the vague information spread from the outside world. Instead, the news from the headquarters was very timely and accurate.
"The headquarters said that Keisuke Ueno was also poisoned, but your dose was lighter. He is not dead yet. It is not clear whether he can be rescued. However, this is the best result. Leave the rest to us, just go back to Chongqing with peace of mind."
When Zhan Yuanliang heard this, he nodded and suddenly asked strangely: "Did the news come from the headquarters? Isn't it the intelligence officer of our Nanjing Station?"
He has always contacted the Nanjing station manager directly on a single line and has no knowledge of other lurkers, so he doesn't know much about the current situation of the intelligence network.
Shang Zhenyun smiled bitterly and said, "The intelligence network of our Nanjing station has basically been discontinued. It is difficult to obtain valuable intelligence now. It is news from the Shanghai Intelligence Department. Their hands have reached Nanjing. We can only do some rough work like this. In terms of intelligence, the headquarters does not expect us."
"So they are!"
