"Assholes, you are simply crazy. Since I came to Shanghai, I have warned you again and again that you are absolutely not allowed to take any measures against Chen Mingxiang and Huatong Trading Company. What about you, are you turning a deaf ear to my words?"
"Chen Mingxiang and his company are responsible for 70% of the funding sources for the Military Command Bureau. This is related to the vital interests of more than 40,000 brothers and hundreds of thousands of family members, including salaries, activity expenses, and pensions. Can you solve it?
Got it?"
"If this matter causes problems in the cooperation between Huatong Trading Company and the Military Command Bureau, not only will Boss Dai be unable to spare you, but all the brothers in the overall situation will also be able to drown you with their spit!"
"The Military Control Bureau is not a gang of gangsters. It has strict discipline. It acted without permission, and it also caused three members to be rounded up by the Japanese Marine Corps. They died heroically for the mountain city government. This is what you want.
Result?" Mao Sanmu was trembling with anger when he heard the news.
Boss Dai had already made his words very clear before coming here, but his subordinates were so bold to do such a thing, how could they explain it to the bureau headquarters?
The death of three brothers from the Military Command Bureau is a small matter compared to that. If Chen Mingxiang is assassinated and uses this to put pressure on the bureau headquarters, the problem will be huge, and even he may have to be punished.
More importantly, if Boss Dai thinks that his subordinates are lax in their management and the action team does not obey orders, it will have disastrous consequences, and it is not impossible to replace the team leader.
Wang Fuqian and Sheng Zhicheng lowered their heads after being scolded, and did not dare to say a word. Mao Sanmu was the immediate superior sent by the bureau headquarters. If he still talked back after making a mistake, he was seeking death!
No one who can get through to this level is a simple person. If you want to become a front-line commander, decisiveness in killing is the first element. Don't think that Mao Sanmu dare not deal with them.
Of course, the decision to deal with the two lieutenant colonels must be made by the bureau headquarters, but Mao Sanmu is the commander-in-chief, and his words are almost the conclusion. What's more, he is from the bureau's hometown and has distant relatives with Director Mao.
The relationship between them angered him, and the fate of both of them can be guessed.
Boss Dai doesn't care how many merits you have performed in the past. Once you fall out, it will be good for them to save their lives, not to mention their future in the Military Command Bureau!
"Chief, please send a message to the bureau headquarters and say that this matter was completely decided by the two of us in private without telling you. If Boss Dai wants to punish us, we are willing to go to the mountain city to accept the laws and regulations of the bureau headquarters. But we hope this matter will not be implicated.
Action Team." Wang Fuqian said.
"Brother Fuqian, you can't say that. It was me who came up with the idea to warn Chen Mingxiang. The brother who died was also from the intelligence team. I will naturally bear any responsibility and punish me. That way the action team will be less involved.
"Sheng Zhicheng said.
"Shut up, now you think that the action team will be implicated. What a waste. Listen, we must have a unified voice. The responsibility must not be shouldered by us."
"It is said that because Chen Mingxiang was rewarded by the Japanese, the three dead brothers were unhappy and did this to Chen Mingxiang. Unexpectedly, the brother's unit was carrying out another assassination mission in Hongkou District, and the Japanese army launched a large-scale search.
They failed to evacuate in time, resulting in heavy losses."
"We also killed Chen Gongbo's brother-in-law Moyad, which was a relatively successful assassination. I believe Boss Dai and the bureau headquarters will not make it too difficult for us. Besides, since the formation of the action team, we have also made great contributions to the country.
I hope the merits and demerits can be offset," Mao Sanmu said.
Wang Fuqian and Sheng Zhicheng looked at each other and nodded. This was going to be a dead end. I have to say that this was also the best excuse and the best solution at the moment.
Chen Mingxiang's identity is a semi-open secret to the Military Command Bureau, but it is limited to a small number of people. Most of the brothers below do not know it. Under such circumstances, it is completely understandable to do some impulsive things.
Who allowed this guy to be awarded a medal by the Emperor of Japan?
Look, this approach is almost the same as the Japanese approach to assassination cases!
"If you fail to succeed, you will fail. Didn't I make my words clear enough? We worked together to deceive our boss, and they actually played tricks on me. He, Mao Sanmu, has only made such progress since he arrived in Shanghai?" Dai Li was furious.
He originally had a bad temper, but when he heard that Chen Mingxiang had been assassinated by the Shanghai Operation Corps of the Military Command Bureau, he was so furious that he almost overturned his desk.
Warning? What if Chen Mingxiang is beaten to death? Nothing is absolute. This is the rule of intelligence work!
Chen Mingxiang is the only strategic agent of the Military Command Bureau who has successfully lurked at the top levels of the Japanese army and Wang Puppet Government. His value is immeasurable, his success cannot be replicated, and his mission is irreplaceable!
It makes me shudder to think about it. This strategic trump card almost died in the hands of the Military Command's own people. Although such a situation is difficult to avoid, this kind of loss is unacceptable.
"Bureau chief, I think Mao Sanmu himself does not dare to make such a decision. Perhaps it is to provide cover for the people in the action corps. After all, Chunfeng's identity is top secret. Only four people know about it. Being awarded the Japanese Medal this time will inevitably arouse some brothers.
their anger.”
"The Action Corps has made a lot of achievements since its establishment. We need this team to fight the enemy on the front line. Therefore, I think it is better to give them a lighter sentence and allow them to serve their crimes."
"The environment in Shanghai is very harsh, and those who can persevere are all meritorious officials. Now that the Military Command Bureau is in the midst of recruiting people, we should not hit him too hard. This is also to protect the safety of Chunfeng." Mao Renfeng said.
He was most familiar with Dai Li's character and temper. These words were not intended to defend Mao Sanmu and others. The more they did so, the worse the consequences would be.
He understood one thing. Mao Sanmu would never dare to disobey the bureau headquarters. The reason why he did this was for the sake of the combat effectiveness and cohesion of the action corps.
Mao Sanmu didn't know Chunfeng's identity either, and the reasons given were not very convincing. Although the smuggling between the Military Command Bureau and Huatong Trading Company was no longer a secret, the brothers below were not sure how important it was.
You know, it's not weird at all to do something like this.
Since its establishment, the Action Corps has done a great job, destroying railways, burning military rations, blowing up warehouses, and assassinating traitors and Japanese spies. It caused great panic among the Japanese and puppets, and also allowed the people to see the mountain city government's determination to resist the war.
Their achievements have been praised several times even at the top. It is not appropriate to punish them too harshly. Besides, the environment in Shanghai is too harsh. Brothers may sacrifice themselves at any time. Chen Mingxiang is not in any danger anyway, so it is better to take care of him.ntent
