The next day. Chongqing.
It's a rainy day. No. 19, Luojiawan.
Military commander, Dai Chunfeng's office.
Dai Chunfeng stood at the window, opening the blinds and looking out. A car sped in. Several agents jumped out of the car and escorted a man who had been blindfolded with black cloth and his mouth gagged out of the car. .
Dai Juzuo stared at the group of people below and said calmly, "I want to see the confession within twelve hours."
"It won't take twelve hours." Sheng Shuyu chuckled, "Take a seat and wait for the good news."
Seeing Sheng Shuyu leave happily, Qi Wu said with a smile, "It's rare to catch a Japanese, everyone wants to practice their skills."
Dai Chunfeng nodded.
It was extremely difficult to capture Japanese prisoners.
According to official government statistics, since the outbreak of the all-out Anti-Japanese War in the 26th year of the Republic of China, nearly one million Japanese and puppet troops have been annihilated in two years. However, less than a hundred Japanese prisoners of war were actually captured.
Because prisoners of war were difficult to capture, the committee even offered a reward to the army. Each Japanese soldier captured alive would receive a reward of fifty French coins.
For ordinary soldiers of the national army, fifty French coins is a considerable reward. However, according to the military commander's investigation, the lower-level soldiers in the army would rather kill the Japanese soldiers than keep prisoners to receive the reward.
The Japanese are not humans, they are just a bunch of beasts. They have committed heinous crimes in China. It is no wonder that the lower-level soldiers behave like this.
It is difficult to capture Japanese prisoners alive on the battlefield, and it is even more difficult to capture real Japanese agents alive on the agent front.
This Japanese agent was knocked unconscious by a collapsed house during the arrest, so he was captured by the military commander. The entire military commander felt like a treasure.
"Has there been a call back from Cheng Wufang?" Dai Chunfeng asked.
"Not yet." Qi Wu said. He thought about it and felt that it was still necessary to put in a good word for the little fellow. "Secretary, it is very difficult to find out where "Mr. Female" lives. Cheng Wufang also needs time. . "
Cheng Qianfan sent a secret telegram, one of which reported that Zhao Yi and Qiujiang Pier failed to assassinate Wang and killed a Japanese soldier. After firing several shots at the ship where Wang was riding, he shouted slogans and shot himself to death. It is said that the citizens of Shanghai were greatly encouraged and despised Wang Chuhai's perverse behavior, and everyone admired Zhao Yi's tragedy.
And asked for credit and compensation for Zhao Yi.
The second is to report top-secret information to the headquarters and Wang Shuhai has formally proposed to the Japanese side the idea of establishing a so-called "central peace government."
First, Zhao Yi's feat of assassinating Wang shocked the citizens of Shanghai and inspired a wave of national opposition to Wang Kehai. The momentum planned by the Wang faction to welcome Wang Kehai was directly hit hard, and the Wang family even had to Delaying the time of disembarkation and disembarkation because of the joke.
This is why Dai Chunfeng would rather sacrifice an important agent to assassinate Wang.
Dai Chunfeng reported this situation to the leader. The committee was overjoyed and praised the military commander a few words.
As for the second one, "Blue Bird, capturing top-secret information about the Wang family's plan to split the country is an even greater achievement. While the principal was angry and going further and further down the wrong path with the Wang family, he learned that this information came from Cheng Qianfan. Hands, quite pleased and encouraged.
Dai Chunfeng then called "Xiao Mian" and asked the Shanghai Special Intelligence Team to find ways to investigate Wang Kehai's residence.
Although the principal did not say it explicitly, Dai Chunfeng understood the leader's thoughts and must not let Wang Chunhai's move to establish a pseudo-central government come to fruition.
To sanction Wang Kehai, the first thing to do is to find out where he ends up.
"This matter is extremely difficult, of course I know it." Dai Chunfeng said in a deep voice. He looked at the sky outside the window, "Do your best and obey fate."
Having arrived in Shanghai and being protected by Japan, Wang Chuhai is already extremely difficult to assassinate. Getting rid of Wang Chuhai at this time is a hundred times more difficult than the situation in Hanoi.
After a moment, Dai Chunfeng suddenly said, "Pseudoelectricity...
Qi Wu picked up the folder and took out the pen. He held the folder in one hand and the pen in the other, preparing to record the message.
"Call Yuyao and ask Yu Ping'an to go to Shanghai to announce the award for the Shanghai Special Situation Team." Dai Chunfeng said in a deep voice.
"Yes!" Qi Wu nodded and said.
Yu Ping'an was serving as director of the Yuyao Station of Military Command at this time.
After putting away the folder, Qi Wu was about to send the report when Dai Chunfeng suddenly asked, "How is the situation at Tan Pinggong's side?"
"Qiqiaohua" has secretly sent a message to Tan Pinggong, but Tan Pinggong has not responded. "Qi Wu said.
"Call me" to beg for help and ask him to arrange for someone to meet Tan Pinggong directly. "Dai Chunfeng snorted coldly, this Tan Pinggong will not drink wine as a penalty.
He looked at Qi Wu and asked, "Has Tan Pinggong secretly defected to the Red Party?"
"I don't know." Qi Wu frowned and shook his head, "You can order Xiao Mian to investigate this person secretly."
"Okay." Dai Chunfeng nodded.
Dai Chunfeng has a clear division of labor in the use of "Xiao Mian" and "Qiqiao Hua". "Qiqiao Hua" is used very cautiously if its identity is special, while "Xiao Mian" is used relatively frequently, for example, to investigate someone. For such things, "Xiao Mian, who controls the huge Shanghai special situation team, is more suitable."
…
No. 22, Xue Huali Road.
Deputy Chief Inspector's Office, "Mr. Xiao Cheng, stood up slowly and stretched out.
He was playing with a jade ring in his hand. It was a small gadget given to him by his master Ma Yishou when he came to visit in the morning.
In the corridor, Cheng Qianfan saw Su Zhe hurried by without saying hello, and he couldn't help but snorted coldly.
"He's frizzy." Cheng Qianfan cursed.
Arriving at the courtyard on the first floor, Cheng Qianfan met Shuli Zhao who happened to be passing by the courtyard. The two of them exchanged pleasantries without smiling.
Looking at Shu Li Zhao's leaving figure, "Mr. Xiao Cheng, his face was gloomy and uncertain, as if he was thinking about something.
It was a cloudy day. The sun is not strong.
Even a little weak.
Cheng Qianfan came to the medical room to chat with Lao Huang.
"Old Huang, give me some more toothache medicine." Cheng Qianfan said.
"Don't drink alcohol." Old Huang, who was familiar with the situation, prepared the medicine and said.
"You old drunkard, but you said I can't drink alcohol." Cheng Qianfan laughed and cursed.
Lao Huang wrapped the pills in white paper and placed them on the table. There was also a note on the table.
Cheng Qianfan lowered his eyes and quickly glanced at the words on the note.
The note said that Tang Hao, an underground member of our party, was arrested by the Military Police Headquarters. The organization hoped that the special party branch in the French Concession could try to find out about Comrade Tang Hao's current situation.
It also stated Tang Hao’s hidden identity and why he was arrested.
Cheng Qianfan was surprised. He did not expect that Zhao Yi's immediate boss at East Asia Daily, Tang Hao, was actually an underground member of our party.
He once heard that Hao Zai mentioned this Tang Hao. According to what Hao Zai recounted from Zhao Yi, Zhao Yi was extremely disgusted with Tang Hao, who was extremely flattering to the Japanese. He once suggested that the special situation team take action against Tang Hao, but Hao Zai refused. One
Tang Hao admired Zhao Yi very much, so he could not move.
But he didn't expect that Tang Hao turned out to be his comrade.
Cheng Qianfan nodded.
Lao Huang took the note back and slowly rolled the tobacco. Finally, he rolled a layer of newspaper strips outside, struck a match and lit it, and started smoking happily.
"I will find a way to find out the news." Cheng Qianfan said.
Gendarmerie Headquarters.
In an office next to the torture chamber.
Umezu Sanami stayed and drank tea slowly.
He didn't speak, and Tang Hao, who was standing in front of him, was even more frightened and didn't dare to make the slightest move.
The air seemed a little dull.
Occasionally there would be the ferocious barking of a giant oriental wolfdog, followed by a shrill scream.
The gendarmerie will occasionally destroy Japanese-haters who are stubborn and have no value in continuing interrogations.
The most heinous one was that he was bitten to death by Japanese wolves and dogs and became the food of these animals.
Listening to the screams entering the office through the cracks in the door, the hatred in Tang Hao's heart was hard to describe in words. The sadness in his heart was uncontrollable, but he had to try his best to suppress this emotion.
He seemed more frightened, his legs were trembling.
"Deputy Editor Tang." Umezu Sagami threw Tang Hao's confession paper on the ground, "If I give this confession to Mr. Shimizu Yoshizawa, how do you think Shimizu Yoshizawa will deal with you?"
"Taijun, Taijun, you must not do it." Tang Hao picked up his confession and just glanced at it, "I hope Taijun can say a few nice words to Mr. Qingshui. These are all nonsense and cannot be taken seriously." ."
A timid and stupid guy.
Umezu Sagami gave Tang Hao this definition.
If he were a smart person, he would not defend himself like this at this time, nor would he expect him to speak kindly in front of Qingmizu Yoshizawa.
A truly smart person would burst into tears and beg Umezu Sagami to give him guidance and a way to survive.
Those who think they are smart may think they have the ability to win the trust of Shimizu Yoshizawa and are not worried about this confession.
It is stupid for Tang Hao to speak like this. To be more precise, he is stupid, honest and ridiculous.
"Nonsense?" Sanami Umetsuzumi glanced at Tang Hao, "Mr. Tang means to deceive us and deceive the Military Police Headquarters?!"
"Ah, no, no, I don't dare, I don't dare." Mr. Tang Hao was stunned for a moment, and then he became even more frightened. He waved his hands repeatedly, "Taijun, Taijun, what I said above is all the truth, I don't dare." To deceive the prince."
As he said that, Tang Hao knelt down directly, his nose burst into tears, "Taijun Mingjian, Tang has always been loyal to the Empire of Japan... Taijun, you are compassionate, Taijun, you see that Tang has shown great loyalty to the Empire of Japan..." For the sake of Japan’s loyalty, please give me a way to survive.”
Seeing Tang Hao, who was crying and begging for mercy like a begging dog, a smile appeared on Umezu Sagami's face, "Mr. Tang, the Locust Army is peace-loving and cherishes life, so it is not without a way to survive."
"Taijun, you give your orders, you give your orders." Tang Hao knelt on the ground, crawled forward two steps, and shouted excitedly as if he had grasped a life-saving straw.
"Hahaha." Sanami Umezu laughed loudly, walked up and patted Tang Hao on the shoulder, "Mr. Tang, you are very good. As long as you obey my arrangements, your life will be saved."
"I will do whatever Taijun asks me to do." Tang Hao said quickly.
"I can let you live, or even burn this confession right away." Umetsuzumi Sagami glanced at Tang Hao and said in a deep voice, "I want you to secretly do things for the Military Police Headquarters."
Tang Hao, who was kneeling down to beg, suddenly raised his head when he heard this, with a look of astonishment on his face...
Tan Mansion.
A car drove into the yard.
The driver got out of the car, walked around to the rear door, and opened it.
"Master, please slow down."
Tan Pinggong got out of the car and hurried into the living room.
"The master is back." The maid took the top hat from the male master, helped him take off his suit jacket, and hung up the hat and coat carefully.
"Where's my wife?" Tan Pinggong asked.
"Ask me, my wife is upstairs," the maid said.
Tan Pinggong strolled upstairs and saw his wife sitting in front of the piano stand in a daze.
"Guizhi, what happened?" Tan Pinggong asked.
Guizhi likes to play the piano, and this time is also the time for her to practice.
If you see yourself in a daze in front of the piano, something must be bothering you.
"The master is back." Mrs. Tan closed the piano stand and came up to hold her husband's arm.
"What happened?" Tan Pinggong asked again.
"Master, please read this letter." Mrs. Tan took out a key from her body, opened the jewelry cabinet, and took out a letter from inside.
"Letter?" Tan Pinggong took the envelope and glanced at it, only to see what was written on the envelope:
Mr. Tan personally opened it.
Pulling out the letter paper inside, Tan Pinggong took a look, but his expression changed drastically.
This is a letter written by the Red Party to him.
To be precise, it was a letter written by the New Fourth Army to Tan Pinggong.
"Where did this letter come from?" Tan Pinggong asked hurriedly.
He looked at his wife's jewelry cabinet, "Cabinet..."
"No." Mrs. Tan understood what her husband meant. It would be terrible if the envelope was found in the jewelry cabinet. "It was found on the dressing table table, pressed with my perfume bottle."
When Tan Pinggong heard this, the nervous expression on his face did not ease much.
"Master, the letter said that they will send someone to contact us again to arrange a time and contact information." Mrs. Tan said, "In this case, according to what they said, the money can be returned to Zhao in full."
As she said that, Mrs. Tan suddenly frowned.
"Guizhiqian also thought of it." Tan Pinggong sighed, "The key to the problem now is how to prove that they are really members of the New Fourth Army."
Naturally, he had no intention of keeping the anti-Japanese donation as his own. What he wished for was to hand the money over to the hands of the New Fourth Army, which would not only fulfill the trust of his friends, but also fulfill the righteousness of his family and country!
However, as he was worried about, how to prove that the other party was the New Fourth Army.
It would be terrible if this was someone else using the name of the New Fourth Army.
The worst thing that could happen is that this is a Japanese trap!
That would be a disaster for the whole family!
"Master, would you like to find out who stole this letter..." Mrs. Tan asked in a low voice.
If we can find out who secretly put this letter into production, further analysis and judgment will be possible.
"Absolutely not!" Tan Pinggong said immediately.
