Just when Zhang Tianhao slept for a while and even relaxed, he heard Xiaoyu's cry in his ears. Apparently Xiaoyu told him to wake up.
He slowly opened his eyes, then glanced at Xiaoyu, who had an expectant look on his face, then sat up and said calmly: "Bring the food here, I'll eat some, and I want to sleep for a while."
"Okay, sir, you've been at home for a long time!"
"You little girl, are you still afraid that I'll sell you out? Do you still recognize the gentleman who usually passes by our house?" Zhang Tianhao said lightly, looking at her with some humor.
"Are you talking about Mr. Qian? He used to know my young master. He often sent us things. Is he also familiar with him?"
"I know everyone here. He lives in our area. If there is need, I will ask him to help us send some supplies."
“So that’s how it is!”
Xiaoyu immediately ran out and started to bring a bowl of noodles and a dish. Although it was simple, Zhang Tianhao still started eating it.
After eating, he went on to sleep.
He didn't sleep last night, so he was indeed a little sleepy.
…
The atmosphere in the military police meeting room was quite depressing. Muranaka Nagaharu, Taki, and Oda were sitting opposite each other, but their expressions were so ugly.
After all, they really don't have much time left. Today is already the 25th, but they still haven't gotten any useful information here.
Even Zhongtong's tail had just been caught, but when he turned around to look for it again, he found that the tail was gone and had been replaced by Zhongtong.
Oda Ernan sighed, they lost the battle with Zhongtong again.
"Oda-kun, now we seem to be losing again."
"Yes, today is already the 25th, and we only have five days. If we don't get any results, then transferring us would be the lightest option, and something more terrible might happen."
The village chief also sighed, and in front of the three of them, there was a cup of tea. The originally fragrant tea seemed a bit bitter when they drank it.
"By the way, Oda-kun, what do you think of what happened last night?"
"Ninety percent of the time, someone is blaming Taihe Haojun. Unfortunately, all the evidence points to him, and he is the only one who knows the patrol patterns of the entire garrison. Even if it's not him, it's him. Now the empire needs to introduce someone to boost morale."
"After all, the responsibility must be his now, otherwise nearly thirty imperial soldiers died, and there is no way to explain it to the superiors! After all, who allowed him to leave his post without permission? Xinjing is not peaceful now, and he has left Xinjing. This is not for ourselves.
Looking for trouble?"
"So that's it!"
"Okay, let's not talk anymore. We still have to think about what we will do next!" Daxi lightly knocked on the table.
"Indeed, after sharing all the intelligence between the three of us, we failed to find out the whereabouts of Zhongtong. This is a shame for our empire."
Oda Ernan glanced at Muranaka Changji, then took out a piece of paper and started drawing on it.
"Everyone, look at all our intelligence. From the time we left our place to the time our hidden line was discovered, you can see that it was us who took action first and aroused the vigilance of the Central Command. If your guess is correct, they are
Investigate one by one, and then find out the culprit."
"In other words, we are the ones who take action here. If we don't take action here, it might be better. We want to catch them all, so we can't take the lead."
As he spoke, he took out a piece of data and pointed it out to the other two people.
If Zhang Tianhao were here, he would definitely admire Oda Ernan for doing data analysis. He is definitely a master. Compared to him, or compared to most people, he is much better.
Now Zhang Tianhao and the others can only carry out defense, which can be said to be a cure for a headache and a pain for the feet. After all, no one knows where the enemy will invade.
Although both Zhang Tianhao and Qian Jun knew that this method was not advisable, there was nothing they could do. After all, at this point, no one could do anything.
This is also the reason why Zhang Tianhao has always wanted to establish a second intelligence network.
…
"Xiaoqian, how are things going over there?"
"Boss, I've almost finished handling it here. Is there something wrong?" Qian Jun let Zhang Tianhao into the back office and looked at Zhang Tianhao with some confusion.
"Yes, the war in Shanghai is about to end. I want you to go to Shanghai first and recruit people for me in the concession. All of them are to recruit as many soldiers as there are." A hint of coldness flashed in Zhang Tianhao's eyes.
Embarrassing, even a little crazy.
"Boss, you want to recruit soldiers, and they are soldiers who have retired from the battlefield. This seems a bit difficult, right?"
"It's difficult. In a few days, the army in Shanghai may be defeated. Countless deserters will appear. Therefore, I am going to let you go to Shanghai to recruit troops. You bring twenty people with you, and I will prepare all American weapons for you.
.”
"Then where should we go? I'm not familiar with Shanghai!"
"Go to this villa at No. 37 Zhuyuan Road. It is a secret residence I prepared there. There is a secret cabinet under the kitchen sewer, which is a basement. There are 200 American rifles and 50 submachine guns in it.
.You have to use these weapons to recruit people for me."
"In addition, I have prepared 100,000 French currency for you, so you can recruit people vigorously. And all the intelligence teams have entered a state of silence. This time they are really silent."
"Boss, are you going to start the second plan?"
"Yes, you will have someone notify Qingniu Village tomorrow and send twenty people to Shanghai in batches. As for the money, I have prepared two thousand US dollars and five thousand counterfeit coins for you. The travel expenses to Shanghai should be enough."
Zhang Tianhao thought for a moment and said seriously.
"That's enough. What about my store?"
"I'll go take a look first. Anyway, I haven't got anything to do for a while. When I go there tomorrow, you can introduce me to everyone as the manager there!"
"OK!"
Zhang Tianhao has his own considerations. If these veterans can stay, it will be of great benefit to his future plans.
He is just waiting for the transfer order. If the transfer order comes, he will leave Xinjing. Therefore, there is no need for him to find other jobs. After all, if he looks for a job again, he will have to leave Xinjing once the transfer order is issued.
"In addition, tell Chen Shijie that starting from November 1st, people will be arranged in batches to conduct inspections in various towns, counties, or districts. Everyone must maintain separate contact. Apart from him, no other person is allowed to know.
In January, I will go find him."
"Understood. I'll write the letter in a moment and ask me to run over and deliver it to him."
The two discussed for a while, and then Zhang Tianhao left Qian Jun's place directly and headed outside. After all, he had to do many things in front.
I raised my head and looked at the sky outside. The sun had already shifted to the west. The daylight hours were getting shorter and shorter. It got dark after five o'clock in the afternoon. It got dark much earlier than before at seven or eight o'clock.
Zhang Tianhao was carrying two bottles of wine and two cold dishes in his other hand. He looked as if he was preparing to go back to eat and drink.
