When Wu Sibao and She Aizhen heard these words, their faces suddenly became embarrassed, because Chen Mingxiang almost made it clear that Wu Sibao, the veteran of the secret service headquarters, was outdated!
In the past, Wu Sibao, the captain of the guard, could be said to dominate the Shanghai market. At that time, the special agent headquarters had just been established, and there were very few professionals who defected or instigated rebellion. Traitor agents with a Youth Gang background like him were needed to carry out their work.
Therefore, whether it was Mei Guan, the extra high school, or Li Shiqun, they all favored him, even with an indulgent attitude.
Wu Sibao's guards occupy all the territory in Shanghai, whether it is gambling tables, opium dens, entertainment venues or businesses. Even factories and enterprises have to pay protection fees, and the family's money keeps flowing in.
But Lin Zhijiang is not a small character who can be driven around by others. He was born in the famous Huangpu and is a senior military agent. In terms of black-heartedness and viciousness, he is no less evil than Wu Sibao.
If he gets enough strength, he will definitely compete with the Guard Corps for territory. Everyone knows that when it comes to money, Lin Zhijiang may be the second Wu Sibao, who regards money as life!
The current situation is very favorable to Lin Zhijiang. Even if Li Shiqun trusts Wu Sibao, he can't go too far. As the boss, a bowl of water must be balanced. It is inevitable for both sides to divide the territory and authority. Otherwise, why set up an action corps?
?
"It's strange to say that most of the people in the secret service headquarters are very leisurely, but Lin Zhijiang seems to be particularly busy. The person I asked for benefits is not in the office, and the people in the action team don't know where he has gone."
"Shen Gengmei said that he is carrying out a secret mission assigned by Director Li. I can't ask more questions. If you know that it involves this aspect, it's better to stay away," Chen Mingxiang said.
"It's normal that you can't see Lin Zhijiang. He's really busy recently. Captain Chen, do you know about the secret agreement signed by Mr. Wang and the Mei Agency?" Wu Sibao said.
"I definitely know about such a big thing. It's not a big secret in the secret service headquarters. At the end of December last year, the agreement was signed. The preparatory committee is preparing the office space and celebration venue. Captain Wu seems to have something in his words?"
Chen Mingxiang didn't quite understand.
This may be a secret to ordinary people, but to the secret service headquarters, it is no longer a secret. When Wu Sibao mentioned this matter, he must have meant something.
"The negotiators between Mr. Wang and the Japanese side are Gao Zongwu, the former director of the Asia Department of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Yamashiro government, and Tao Xisheng, who is a member of the Standing Committee of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China and Minister of Propaganda. They are both loyal supporters of Mr. Wang."
"But the strange thing is that they were all present during the negotiations, but when it came time to sign the agreement, Tao Xisheng, who is a member of the Standing Committee of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, did not sign."
"Although Mr. Wang was very dissatisfied at the time, he did not force it. Who knew that these two people actually ran to Hong Kong City secretly. In view of the serious situation, Mr. Wang asked the Secret Service Headquarters to control Tao Xisheng's family. To this end, Director Li took matters into his own hands.
Leave it to Lin Zhijiang to take charge," Wu Sibao said.
Chen Mingxiang suddenly felt a huge surprise. If this was the case, his stealing of the secret agreement between Japan and Wang would not be exposed.
It was not that fate favored him, but that Wang's puppet government should not have appeared. After all, his traitorous behavior was still unpopular, and even Wang Jingwei's closest subordinates betrayed him.
"Director, Chunfeng sent the latest information, saying that things have changed and that Gao Tao's actions can be used to cover up his behavior." Pan Qiwu, who had just returned to the mountain city, entered the office and said.
"Chunfeng has a very clear mind, is calm-minded and is good at seizing opportunities. These are the basic qualities and reactions of a strategic agent. As long as there is a threat to one's latent mission, no matter how great the credit, it must be killed in advance."
"I have received relevant news. Gao and Tao have arrived in Hong Kong City carrying photos related to the secret agreement between Japan and Wang. But after all, our Military Command was one step ahead."
"After reading the contents of the message you sent, the commissioner is very satisfied with the work of the Military Command Bureau. He also greatly appreciates Chunfeng, a strategic agent, and agreed not to announce it to the public for the time being, using Gao Tao's actions as a cover."
"In view of these agreements, they are of extremely important significance in exposing the ugly faces of Wang Jingwei and others who betrayed the interests of the country and the nation in this special period."
"The committee has specially approved the promotion of Chen Mingxiang to the rank of Army Major. This is an appointment military rank rather than a positional military rank. He will be rewarded with US$30,000 and a commendation order will be written in his own hand."
"After reading Chen Mingxiang's file, the committee requested that this sharp knife in the enemy's heart must be protected and used well to play a greater role." Dai Li said with a smile.
Of course, Pan Qiwu would not wait until he returned to the mountain city to tell Dai Li the content. This kind of matter had to be raced against time. After leaving Shanghai, his next stop was Nantong. With the cooperation of the local working group, he personally used the radio station to publish the full text.
Gave it to the bureau headquarters.
Dai Li also heard about Gao Tao and took the telegram to report to the chairman of the committee first. The effect of this was quite obvious.
The outstanding achievements of the military commander-in-chief are in sharp contrast to the inaction of the central commander-in-chief. Of course, the chairman is more inclined to support the military commander-in-chief. Although this matter cannot be made public, he has his own judgment in his heart.
"Director, Chunfeng has been on the mission for less than half a year, and his military rank has been raised from second lieutenant to major. Is the speed of promotion a little fast?" Pan Qiwu said.
"This is already considered slow. Chunfeng has found out that the Japanese army, navy and air force will jointly carry out a large-scale bombing of the mountain city in May. This military intelligence has attracted great attention from the committee."
"According to the commission, Chunfeng has made outstanding contributions to the overall situation of the War of Resistance, and has made great contributions to the safety of life and property of the mountain city government agencies and the people. No matter what, he must be awarded the rank of colonel and another first-class
Baoding Medal, asked me to stop it."
"But I feel that this matter is not over yet. If the Japanese army really launches an indiscriminate saturation bombing on the mountain city and proves the reliability of Chunfeng's intelligence, the commission will certainly not hesitate to reward heavily. A mere major is far from enough." Dai Li said.
.
After Chen Mingxiang left, both She Aizhen and Wu Sibao looked ugly. It was unbelievable that Lin Zhijiang secretly attracted so many powerful people from the secret service headquarters, including Ye Jiqing's younger brother Ye Yaoxian. This method was simply cutting off Wu Sibao.
foundation.
In addition to Li Shiqun's trust, Wu Sibao relied on these people to support the situation. Now that Lin Zhijiang has taken him away, how can he still mess around in the future?
"Mr. Wang and the Mei Agency attach great importance to the matter of Gao Zangwu and Tao Xisheng. If Tao Xisheng is forced to return to Shanghai, then Lin Zhijiang will show his face, and maybe he can get the favor of General Yingzuo and Mr. Wang.
Receive it in person." She Aizhen said.
"A traitor to the military who wants to be on an equal footing with me is just a daydream! The action team is all my old supporters. Tomorrow I will find an opportunity to do something secretly. If the person under surveillance escapes, he will be
Zhijiang will definitely not be able to live without him, and both the Japanese and Mr. Wang will hate him to death!" Wu Sibao is not lacking in such wisdom.
