After receiving this confidential information, Li Yunsheng attached great importance to it and asked solemnly: "Mr. Edward, it's not enough to just rely on your empty words. In intelligence transactions, there must be some evidence."
Edward smiled and said: "Of course it's not empty talk. My intelligence agent has sent over a piece of film, which contains the Japanese army's mobilization and attack plan. This is definitely not false."
Li Yunsheng nodded and did not ask about the source of the news. After all, everyone's intelligence agents were top-secret and would not tell others easily. He simply said: "Then please give Mr. Edward a price. I will buy this news."
Already."
Edward said unhurriedly: "Mr. Li is very happy. For the sake of Mr. Robert, I don't want more than two hundred thousand US dollars or the equivalent in foreign currency." After saying that, he stretched out two
A finger shook.
Hearing the price, Li Yunsheng cursed greed in his heart, but thinking that he could get such confidential information just by spending a little money, it was still very worthwhile, and he could also use their intelligence network to get some information in the future, so he didn't pay it back.
price, and said readily: "Okay, I accept this price, and we can trade now."
After finishing speaking, Li Yunsheng took out a prepared cash check from his arms and handed it over. It was exactly 200,000 US dollars.
After receiving the check, Edward did not hesitate. He took out a document and film from the safe in the office, handed it to Li Yunsheng, and then said: "All the information I got is here. The document was developed from the film.
Yes, you can go back and watch it slowly, and I also know that the Japanese navy is currently being mobilized, and you still have some time to deal with this matter."
Li Yunsheng nodded, thinking that the current British navy is not weak. There are warships in every coastal city in China. These warships must have discovered the abnormal mobilization of the Japanese navy, so they investigated the matter. It seems that this news should
It couldn't be fake, so he said: "It's a pleasure to cooperate. If there is news about the Japanese in the future, Mr. Edward can sell it to me."
Edward said happily: "That's great, I have another big buyer."
At this time, Robert asked: "Mr. Li, we have completed such an important transaction, so can you tell me what your purpose is."
Li Yunsheng thought about it and felt that the British are not enemies now. When World War II breaks out, they will still be allies on the same front. Although this ally is very unreliable, it is nothing to communicate with, not to mention that these people are still needed now.
He said: "It's okay. You also know that the Battle of Wuhan was very fierce. I can't get involved in this battle. However, the Japanese do not provide logistics. Many of them are transported from Northeast China and North China, so I
We plan to blow up the Tianjin Railway Station so that the Japanese troops on the Wuhan front line will be short of supplies, so they will have a very difficult fight."
Hearing Li Yunsheng's true purpose, Robert showed a dumbfounded expression. After all, he had been in Tianjin for many years and naturally knew the situation at Tianjin Railway Station. He said with emotion: "Mr. Li, you are so courageous. You dare to attack Tianjin."
With the idea of a train station, it’s no wonder that a lot of explosives were needed.”
Li Yunsheng said calmly: "I have always been very courageous. Besides, although it is difficult to blow up the Tianjin Railway Station, there is still some hope. Even if the goal is not achieved, it will cause some losses to the Japanese."
Robert continued to ask: "How sure is Mr. Li?"
"Fifty-fifty, why would Mr. Robert care about this?"
Although Li Yunsheng didn't have much confidence, he would not tell the truth to these foreigners. After all, they had to guard against each other, and since the late Qing Dynasty, the country that had bullied China the most was the United Kingdom. Unless he had no choice, Li Yunsheng would really not want to go with him.
They deal with each other.
When Robert heard Li Yunsheng's question, he did not hide it and said calmly: "The reason why I am concerned about this is because I can't stand the Japanese, and if chaos breaks out in Tianjin, the concession must be prepared."
Li Yunsheng nodded, because Robert's statement was very reasonable, and then continued: "Now that you two know what I am going to do, can we talk about explosives?"
Edward glanced at Robert, and with the other's nod, he said: "There is no problem with the explosives. I don't know how much Mr. Li wants and when he will use it."
Li Yunsheng simply replied: "In terms of quantity, the more the better, but time is a bit urgent and you need to leave it to me tomorrow night."
This request surprised Edward. He thought for a while and then said: "Mr. Li, time is too tight. Even if I give you all the explosives in my inventory, it will only be only a few hundred kilograms. With these explosives, I don't know.
Can you answer the purpose?"
Li Yunsheng said softly: "A few hundred kilograms should be about the same. After all, we only need to blow up the important facilities in the station and turn the station into ruins so that the Japanese cannot recover in a short time. We are not going to blow it up into a piece of white ground, but I have
One requirement is to make all these explosives into explosive packets."
This request was not difficult, so Edward nodded simply, and then the two of them discussed the price and transaction location, and Li Yunsheng turned around and left.
After Li Yunsheng left, Edward asked: "Mr. Consul, do you think these people can succeed?"
Robert smiled and said: "I feel he will succeed. After all, this person is very clever in his methods and will never act recklessly."
Edward asked curiously: "It seems that Mr. Consul knows this Mr. Li very well. Have you ever dealt with him before?"
Robert told the story of how he met Li Yunsheng, and then introduced some of Li Yunsheng's achievements after the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War. Finally, he said with emotion: "This is a powerful character, so I think he will definitely succeed."
Edward had not been in Tianjin for a long time, so he didn't know much about Li Yunsheng's past. After hearing Robert's introduction, he said: "It turns out that this man's methods are so clever. No wonder Mr. Consul asked me to tell him the news about the Japanese."
.”
Robert said seriously: "The expansion of the Japanese in the Far East is really not in the interest of the British Empire. It can cause them some trouble and slow down their expansion. Why not do it? Besides, Japan and Germany are going very fast now."
Recently, and Germany has been making trouble in Europe, maybe one day, because of Germany, we will completely fall out with the Japanese."
Edward also agreed with this opinion, and then said: "What Mr. Consul means is that, if conditions permit, we can help a group of these Chinese people."
Robert said calmly: "You can help them a little, but don't let the Japanese get the handle. After all, it's not time to fall out with them, and the British Empire's power in the Far East is limited, and it can't defeat the Japanese."
Li Yunsheng didn't know what Robert was thinking, but he felt that he had gained a lot this time. After all, he got the news that the Japanese were about to attack Guangzhou.
When they returned to their residence, Xu Bing was about to ask, but Li Yunsheng waved his hand to signal her to calm down, and then read the documents carefully.
It took more than ten minutes for Li Yunsheng to read the document carefully, then handed it to Xu Bing and said seriously: "Take a look. After reading it, immediately send a telegram to the headquarters to inform them that the Japanese are about to attack Guangzhou.
"
Hearing the news, Xu Bing was a little stunned, but he immediately reacted, took the document, looked at it, and then asked: "District Chief, didn't you go to find the British? How did you get such confidential information?
"
Li Yunsheng told Xu Bing what happened, and then said: "According to my judgment, this news cannot be false, and the contents of this document are also very true. As long as the headquarters investigates the situation in the Northeast,
By checking the movement, you can determine the authenticity of this information."
Xu Bing said solemnly: "The headquarters is in the Northeast, and there are many intelligence agents, so the authenticity of this information is very easy to verify, as long as those intelligence agents pay attention to the mobilization of Japanese troops."
Li Yunsheng nodded, and then told Xu Bing: "It is better to get things done sooner rather than later. You should send a telegram to the headquarters now and ask them to investigate earlier."
Xu Bing did not hesitate and immediately went back to the room to send a telegram.
A few minutes later, Xu Bing came to Li Yunsheng's room with the radio and said softly: "District Chief, the telegram has been sent, but the headquarters did not call back immediately. I don't know what happened."
Li Yunsheng frowned. After all, such important news should be taken very seriously by the headquarters. He couldn't help but be very puzzled that there might not be a call back.
At this time, at the headquarters of the Chongqing Military Unification Bureau, the Director of Telecommunications was holding a telegram and quickly ran to the Bureau's office. He barged in without waiting for the secretary to inform him.
In the office at this time, the bureau chief was discussing with the two deputy directors how to eliminate the Japanese spies who had sneaked into Chongqing.
Since the National Government moved its capital to Chongqing, the Japanese increased their penetration into Chongqing, so the counterintelligence work in Chongqing was also very tense, which gave the three chief and deputy directors a headache, so they discussed countermeasures together.
However, due to the war, a large number of civilians moved to Chongqing with the government, so the situation was very chaotic. Many Japanese spies were mixed in, so it was difficult to find them.
When the bureau chief was worried, he saw the Director of Telecommunications barging in. He couldn't help but feel a little angry, so he said very displeasedly: "What a panic, are there any rules?"
The Director of Telecommunications is an old subordinate of the Bureau, so when facing the Bureau, there is not much pressure. In addition, he has a trump card in hand, so he is naturally not afraid, so he said unhurriedly: "Bureau, something big has happened.
, North China sent a telegram saying that the Japanese were about to attack Guangzhou."
After listening to the words of the director of telecommunications, the director said solemnly: "You are repeating where the telegram was sent."
The Director of Telecommunications repeated it again, and then continued: "The telegram sent by District Chief Li also said that the Japanese will mobilize troops from the Northeast and ask the headquarters to investigate."
