In the following days, Cheng Yunfa became so depressed that he even lost the strength to speak.【】
Only now did he make up his mind to assist Zhao Minggui in the investigation. The people they wanted to investigate were the people Zuo Shaoqing had met after returning from Xufu Lane.
Zhao Minggui once told him that if Zuo Shao was a Communist Party member, she would definitely have a contact person. "She won't do it alone, right?" Zhao Minggui said, "If we find this contact person, we can find Zuo Minggui."
There's a big fish behind Shaoqing, right? Brother, get down and check carefully."
Cheng Yunfa also knew that this statement made sense, but he didn't like doing these tasks. Therefore, these tasks were put off. Now, the depressed Cheng Yunfa had to go back to do these tasks.
Zhao Minggui looked at him and just wanted to laugh, "Brother, don't be like an eggplant beaten by frost. What's wrong with giving you a few words? The director is having a harder time than you. It's even harder for him to interact with the director."
Cheng Yunfa thought about it and realized that this was indeed the case. He was just a petty soldier, so he had to be trained by the director. The director had the rank of major general, so if he was scolded like this by the director... Damn it, it would be better to hang himself.
.
The total number of people Zuo Shaoqing met during this period was dozens, and almost all of them had photos, which were taken by the person responsible for tracking them at the scene or on the road. Zhao Minggui had already done some work in the early stage to prepare for these people.
A simple profile was created. These people generally have the following situations.
Some of them are people from the military system. There is the police chief of the garrison headquarters. This person is an old friend of Cheng Yunfa. He was the one who asked for another ambulance. The chief of staff of the 20th Army seems to be for some relative.
Regarding the matter, I approached Zuo Shaoqing, a director of the Joint Logistics Headquarters. When handling the Xiaguan arms case, he had cooperated with Zuo Shaoqing, the director of the Intelligence Department of the 45th Army. If the Secret Bureau took
For larger raids, Zuo Shaoqing will contact him. Wait, there are some more. But if these people are Zuo Shaoqing's contacts, then... Cheng Yunfa doesn't want to think about it anymore, so he will investigate one by one.
Some of them are people from government agencies. There is a deputy director of the Provincial Postal Administration, a counselor of the Education Committee, the chief accountant of the Construction Bureau, the deputy director of the Provincial Police Department and the directors of several sub-bureaus below. etc.
, all fat-headed and big-eared ones, get out of here! Cheng Yun is angry with them. Among these people, there is actually a person from the Party General Bureau. Isn’t the Party General Bureau the leader? This person is quite interesting.
Some of them are even more impossible. They are all people from some local gangs, the kind known as "local snakes". The first one is Liao Fengshan, the "Xi Batian" of Shuiximen. In these days, Zuo Shaoqing met him
We met several times. They were very familiar with each other and often ate together. By the way, Liao Fengshan was also from Tong, at least he was very close to Tong. So Liao Fengshan and the person from the Party Communications Bureau were left alone. The other one was
Hu Yuesheng, the leader of the Qing Gang. The Qing Gang has declined in Nanjing and has done nothing. They only lend usury or collect protection fees on the street, and that's all. There are still a few people in this group who can't get on the stage. They are members of the gang.
The little boss.
The largest remaining group are company owners who do black and white business. When you go up there, their purpose is very clear. They all want to rely on Zuo Shaoqing to support them in black market business. Among this group of people, everyone is really
Yes. There are fraudsters, deadbeats, smugglers, and people who buy and sell gold on the black market. It’s really rare. An idea came to Cheng Yunfa’s mind. Did Zuo Shaoqing make a lot of money from these people?
Zhao Minggui squinted at him, "Yunfa, I've heard a long time ago that Zuo Shaoqing doesn't love money. All the money she gets is used as subsidies for her brothers."
"Really?" Cheng Yunfa was a little surprised, "No wonder the gang of bastards under her respect her so much."
You Shaoqing said coldly from the side: "The style of the Communist Party." She glanced at Zhao Minggui, "I mean, she is very good at winning people's hearts. I thought it was Chen Sanhu who pinched her tail."
Zhao Minggui said with a smile: "Young Master, let's not mention that matter."
All these people were carefully investigated and then made judgments. Those who they thought had no problems would be reported to Ye Gongjin one by one. Once confirmed by Ye Gongjin, they would be eliminated. Those who were not confirmed would continue to be investigated and monitored.
.In addition, new people are constantly being added, so the number of people Cheng Yunfa wants to investigate and monitor is always maintained at around twenty or thirty people. Among them, Liu Qiuyue and Lu Cheng are included.
The surveillance and tracking of Zuo Shaoqing has also become more stringent. First, there is Zhao Minggui's participation, and second, You Shaoqing has gradually become familiar with the work of a group and has entered into the situation. In terms of tracking and monitoring, the arrangements are more detailed. In addition, there are
There were phone taps, including in her office and dormitory.
Therefore, Zuo Shaoqing's current situation is even more dangerous. In fact, she has already noticed this. But she has no other way but to be more cautious and cautious. What she thinks is that as long as Ye Gongjin, Zhao Minggui, Cheng Yunfa and others return the
Given this opportunity, she must survive. She must survive. This is related to life and dignity.
At this time, Du Ziyuan, the manager of Jingye Bank, also hopes that "Fishbone" can survive. Although he does not know that "Fishbone" is Wu Fengying from Luofengling, the woman he has hidden deep in his heart.
The moment I am talking about now refers to Lao Li, the deputy commander of the guerrilla column on the Fujian, Zhejiang and Jiangxi border. After he was rescued, he has been arranged in a secret residence. This is an independent small courtyard with two floors.
There are flowerbeds and trees inside. The owner of the house collaborated with the enemy during the Anti-Japanese War. After the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, he was sanctioned by the National Government and punished as a traitor. Du Ziyuan bought the house through extremely complicated relationships and several twists and turns, and became a member of the underground organization.
A secret residence.
There are many such residences around the house, where the newly wealthy people who broke out after the victory of the Anti-Japanese War concentrated. As long as you are careful, it is a relatively safe place.
The female nurse who was followed by Lucheng in Boai Hospital was actually a relatively excellent doctor named Lin Xiu, who is currently responsible for Lao Li's treatment and life.
After all, Du Ziyuan is an experienced underground worker. When he sat next to Lao Li and inspected his injury, he realized that apart from being cautious and being more cautious than ordinary people, there is no unexpected luck in underground work. Lao Li
There must be a special reason why Li was able to be rescued safely. He had already noticed that the comrade in the Secrecy Bureau code-named "Fishbone" must have provided him with help quietly and unnoticed by others.
When he was alone and thinking quietly, he became more aware of this. He was thinking about how resourceful and cautious this comrade was, and how he could still help him in such a difficult situation. If one day, he could see her
This comrade should really say thank you properly. Du Ziyuan was in his heart and really wanted to meet this comrade whose code name was "Fishbone".
At this time, Lin Xiu came quietly and said: "Old Li is awake."
Du Ziyuan hurriedly walked to Lao Li's bedside. He saw that Lao Li had opened his eyes slightly and was looking at him intently.
Du Ziyuan said softly: "Old Li, you are safe now. You are in Nanjing now. We have performed surgery on you and removed the implant from your head. You are recovering."
Lao Li was very weak. He slowly stretched out a hand from under the quilt. Du Ziyuan hurriedly held his hand and said softly: "This is Doctor Lin. She is responsible for taking care of you. She is one of our own."
At this time, Lao Li nodded and shook his hand a little harder.
Du Ziyuan nodded to Lin Xiu, "You must take good care of him."
Also thinking about Lao Li is Metz.
Metz learned about the news that the deputy commander of the Fujian, Zhejiang and Jiangxi guerrilla columns was abducted by the Nanjing underground party a day later. In the International Club, he could learn most of the information he wanted to know. He felt a little regretful in his heart
.This was originally the best opportunity to establish contact with the Operations Division 2 of the Secrecy Bureau. They both need each other. Ye Gongjin especially needs the help of the CIA. But now, this opportunity has disappeared. We need to look for opportunities later.
But Mace was not particularly concerned about this setback. Infiltrating the intelligence agencies of the Chinese government was one of his many tasks, and it was not the most important.
This morning, he just came out of the U.S. Consulate General in China and discussed another very important, very confidential, and very delicate matter with his superiors.
The current situation in the country is very bad, very, very bad. First, corruption means that the people are struggling to make a living; second, the economy is shrinking, all industries are withering, and the government is heavily in debt; third, the battlefield is even more bleak, with troops armed with thousands of tons of American fire.
It collapsed on the battlefield. The chairman of the U.S. Senate Foreign Affairs Committee roared at a congressional hearing, saying that the country is a pit that will never be filled!
Metz and his superiors in the Consulate General were tasked with a very important, very confidential, and very delicate task: trying to change the political map of the foreign government. He understood that this was of course an interference in the foreign government, but so
It's a bit vulgar to say it. He prefers to call it the expectation of promoting national democracy and progress.
The U.S. government intervenes in foreign governments because there are three intolerable situations. One is that the leader of the country is really ignorant and incompetent. No matter how much money and arms the United States invests, it cannot consolidate his rule. In Chinese parlance, it is called bullshit.
Not on the wall. The other is that the country's leaders are too cunning and cunning, and they use all means to defraud the United States into investing more funds and arms. The country's leaders are currently somewhere in between the two, and are both ignorant.
Capable, cunning and cunning, they fall into the third category. In response to the above three situations, the US government will definitely take measures.
The matters that Mace and his boss discussed in secret fell into this category.
At present, they are relatively clear that at the highest level of the national government, in addition to Chairman Chiang, there are indeed several politicians with some reputation. What Metz wants to know is what kind of strength these politicians have
.This kind of strength cannot be calculated by addition and subtraction. It requires political vertical and horizontal manipulation, or the combination of vertical and horizontal military strength. It involves countless bargaining and intrigues, and the political balance will tilt.
Metz and his boss are not particularly worried about this. They know that the United States is the most important weight, and all calculations must be based on the United States.
However, there was one small incident that attracted their attention. Not long ago, the country's intelligence agency arrested a former major general named Hou Lianhai in Henan. This man had retired shortly after the victory of the Anti-Japanese War and was a representative of the National Congress of Henan Province.
The national intelligence agency arrested him on the charge of "collaborating with the Communist Party." But this man was actually a chess piece of Metz and his superiors, a very important chess piece.
One thing Metz has to do now is to get Hou Lianhai released as soon as possible.
However, the national intelligence agency that Metz eyes, the Defense Secret Service, is not in vain. Metz's activities have long been in their sight, especially when some of Metz's actions make them uncomfortable.
Metz's name has long been registered with the Intelligence Division of the Secrecy Bureau. Although he is not listed as an enemy, it is a key point.
One day, Director Mao specially called Ye Gongjin to his office and asked him how much he knew about Metz.
This question startled Ye Gongjin. He said carefully: "Director, as far as I know, Metz is from the CIA. Is there any problem?"
Director Mao looked at him calmly and did not speak for a long time. This meant that the situation was far from as simple as Ye Gongjin imagined.
This made Ye Gongjin very uneasy. He said softly: "Please make it clear, Director."
Director Mao said slowly: "At the moment, I don't need this person. What I need is the people he comes into contact with."
Ye Gongjin immediately thought of the meeting between He Junjie and Metz not long ago. He guessed that the director must know about this. He thought it would be better to take the initiative. He said softly: "Director, Metz has taken the initiative to talk to us recently.
A person from the Second Division got involved. I did some research and found that Metz was mainly concerned about the situation with the Communist Party. I had already warned this person in the Division not to get too close to Metz.
close."
Director Mao looked at him coldly and said, "Go ahead and do what I just said."
When Ye Gongjin returned to his office, he was already covered in cold sweat. The director didn't want Metz, but the people Metz had contacted? Who was this? After thinking about it for a while, he immediately called Zuo Shaoqing into his office.
Her instructions were: "Keep a close eye on Mace and report to me any situation or anyone he meets."
Zuo Shaoqing didn't say a word, saluted and walked out of the office. She already had questions in her mind.
