Of course, Lu Chengzhou couldn't do united front work in the British Concession. He had only one task, which was to lurk better.
However, Lu Chengzhou could pay attention to the ideological trends of the upper-level figures in the British Concession and report to Li Xiangxue in a timely manner.
Of course, Lu Chengzhou's most important task is to obtain intelligence from the Japanese secret service.
In particular, information on the Japanese garrison was urgently needed by both the Kuomintang and the Communist Party.
"You can spend more time with Hiroshi Kawasaki recently," Li Xiangxue reminded.
Lu Chengzhou was introduced to the Nozaki Mansion by Hiroshi Kawasaki. Although Lu Chengzhou had been obeying Nozaki's orders, his files were not entirely in the Nozaki Mansion.
Lu Chengzhou wanted to contact Kawasaki Hiroshi, but of course he couldn't come to him.
Even though he is temporarily a member of staff on loan from Nozaki Mansion, he is still under Nozaki's command.
Lu Chengzhou held a regular meeting at the Yoshino Hotel in the name of the executive director of the Police Training Institute Alumni Association.
He specifically informed Wen Jianmin to participate, and when he arrived at the Yoshino Hotel in the evening, as expected, Wen Jianmin invited Kawasaki Hiro over.
"Teacher, this is an anti-Japanese publication produced by the Communist Party." Lu Chengzhou took out a copy of "The Wire" that he had prepared long ago and handed it to Kawasaki Hiroshi with both hands.
This is a publication secretly published by the Northern Bureau in Haigu in order to promote the party's ideas.
In this issue, there is a very important article: "Eliminating the Remains of the Lisan Line - Close-doorism and Adventurism."
"The person who wrote this article is very extraordinary. If he is in Haigu, we must find a way to get rid of him. Such a person is definitely a serious problem for us." After reading this article, Kawasaki Hiroshi said thoughtfully.
"Just leave this matter to me. The Communist Party's anti-government publications have long caused dissatisfaction at the top." Wen Jianmin suddenly came over and said firmly.
Students in Haigu held several demonstrations in succession, but he only heard about it after the fact.
Even a fool now knows what the students' attitude is towards him.
Seeing Lu Chengzhou holding a Communist Party publication, Wen Jianmin felt an unspeakable sense of shame.
Originally, he should have given this publication to Hiroshi Kawasaki.
However, he had never even heard of this book "The Wire".
If it weren't for Lu Chengzhou, I'm afraid Wen Jianmin wouldn't even know that there was such an underground publication in Haigu.
"Brother Wen, leave this matter to me." Lu Chengzhou smiled.
"It's inconvenient for you to be in the British Concession. As long as you give me a month, I will get rid of this publication!" Wen Jianmin said solemnly.
During this time, he felt that Kawasaki Hiroshi was paying less and less attention to him.
It’s hard to come across an opportunity to perform, so naturally you won’t miss it.
"One month? Brother Wen, this is a publication of the Communist Party. They are so elusive that they can't even figure out how to distribute the publication. How easy is it to destroy this publication?" Lu Chengzhou sighed.
"Teacher Kawasaki, please testify. If the "Wire of Fire" case cannot be solved within a month, we will leave it to Chengzhou to handle." Wen Jianmin said.
"I have no intention of fighting the case with Brother Wen. Whether it takes one month or two months, as long as the "Fire Wire" case can be solved." Lu Chengzhou said.
"It's just one month, not one more day." Wen Jianmin said firmly.
"Just go and do it. I'll discuss something with Lu Chengzhou." Kawasaki Hiro waved his hand.
He was really disappointed with Wen Jianmin. His efforts to infiltrate Haigu students not only had no effect, but also often passed on expired information.
As for investigating the case of the Communist Party, Kawasaki Hiroshi has no hope.
"You guys talk, I'll go out first." Wen Jianmin's eyes were full of envy, but he had no choice but to do anything.
"Teacher Kawasaki, what advice do you have?" Lu Chengzhou asked respectfully after Wen Jianmin went out.
The reason why Lu Chengzhou held this party and brought a copy of "The Wire" was not because he wanted to betray the party's secrets, but because he wanted to take the opportunity to meet Kawasaki Hiroshi.
"You are in the 29th Army, does it matter?" Kawasaki Hiro asked.
Recently, Japan has indeed continued to increase its troops in North China. Since it is preparing to take North China by force, of course it must pay attention to the movements of the 29th Army.
"I only know a few battalion and company commanders, are you going to take action against the 29th Army?" Lu Chengzhou asked.
"It's not so soon, but from now on, you can hand over the information about the 29th Army directly to me without reporting it to Nozaki." Kawasaki Hiroshi said slowly.
When he introduced Lu Chengzhou to Nozaki, he made it clear that Lu Chengzhou would only be temporarily used by Nozaki Mansion, and the garrison army staff had the final right to use Lu Chengzhou.
As the situation in North China changed, Kawasaki Hiro felt that Lu Chengzhou could be allowed to do more for the imperial army.
Lu Chengzhou's performance during this period was outstanding. Nozaki was very satisfied with whether it was his contact with students in Haigu, intelligence on military control, or even the dynamics of the British Concession.
Now, it's time for Lu Chengzhou to play a greater role.
"Yes." Lu Chengzhou said respectfully.
Kawasaki Hiro directly assigned him the task without treating him as an outsider.
Lu Chengzhou also felt that it was time for him to make a difference by breaking into the Japanese secret service.
"The cabinet decided to strengthen the Chinese garrison and the establishment of the garrison will be upgraded to an independent corps. Therefore, our task is even more important. We do not want to reform all the five subjects of civil affairs, finance, construction, industry, and education of the East Anti-Communist Autonomous Government.
The security brigade has also been upgraded to a security brigade. What we have to do is to do a good job in the 29th Army." Kawasaki Hiroshi said slowly.
Lu Chengzhou is not an ordinary intelligence agent. He has received professional training from military commanders and has his own ideas.
The reason why Lu Chengzhou was willing to serve Japan was not only because he could easily obtain a large amount of money, but also because he realized that the gap between China and Japan was huge. If a war broke out between the two countries, China would never win.
In this case, why not be on the winning side from the beginning?
"Teacher, can you be more specific?" Lu Chengzhou asked sincerely.
"The 29th Army is a threat to the Imperial Army. Therefore, it is necessary to collect intelligence on the 29th Army. For example, the words, deeds, deployment, etc. of the generals of the 29th Army," Kawasaki Hiroshi said.
In fact, he had already formulated a plan to alienate the 29th Army. He would either win over or exploit the generals of the 29th Army, or attack and slander them. He would do whatever it took to weaken the combat effectiveness of the 29th Army.
Lu Chengzhou quickly reported the tasks assigned by Kawasaki Hiro to Liu Youjun.
The Japanese army has begun to attack the 29th Army, but the Nationalist Government still has illusions about Japan, so Liu Youjun is naturally worried.
"Brother Army, we must believe in Commander Song. No matter how cunning the Japanese are, no one dares to easily become the eternal sinner of the Chinese nation." Lu Chengzhou comforted him.
"That's not necessarily the case." Liu Youjun shook his head. He did not agree with Lu Chengzhou's view.
