No. 19, Luojiawan, Chongqing.
Military Command Headquarters.
Dai Chunfeng's face was as sinking as water, and he was pacing back and forth.
Qi Wu knocked on the door and entered.
"Is there any news from Tianjin?" Dai Chunfeng asked urgently.
Qi Wu shook his head.
Dai Chunfeng let out a long sigh.
Last month, after Wang Tiemu rebelled and defected to Japan, the Military Command Headquarters issued a warning to Tianjin. Tianjin District Chief Che Che put his life and death aside and persisted in the war of resistance because he had unfinished work. Unexpectedly, he still failed to escape his fate:
Che Che, the district chief of the Tianjin Military Command, and Zeng Zhiyi, the station chief, were successively arrested by the Japanese Military Police.
After hearing the bad news, Dai Chunfeng was extremely anxious.
Che Che, a native of Ruian, Zhejiang Province, graduated from Shanghai Law School in the 11th year of the Republic of China. His writings and sharp rhetoric also focused on the national crisis with strong ambitions.
At that time, he was introduced by Lin Huangyan, director of the General Office of the Military Commission of the National Government, to work in the Secret Service of Lixingshe. He was one of the famous college student leaders in the early days of the establishment of the Secret Service. He first served as the assistant secretary of Room A of Jigexiang.
When he was one year old, he served as secretary of Jiangxi Linchuan Office.
At the age of two again, he was transferred to Baoding Station Secretary.
Che Che was very interested in spy work and once told people: "When you marry and have children in the future, you will teach your children to pass on the mantle and be an agent for generations to come."
When people asked why, they said: "Secret agents are the most loyal people. When it comes to the use of their work, the rank of official is one level higher. There is no one in the world who is more noble than an agent."
Before the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, Dai Chunfeng secretly sent Che Che to Tianjin to contact the passionate young people in North China.
After Che Che went north, he organized the "Anti-Japanese Killing and Rape Group" and made great achievements one after another.
In March this year, Che Che was transferred to Tianjin Station Director of the Military Unification Bureau.
Soon, he was promoted to Tianjin District Governor.
Zeng Zhiyi, courtesy name Wenjin, was born in Shaoyang, Hunan.
Graduated from Peking University of China.
In the 14th year of the Republic of China, he served as a standing committee member of the Peiping City Party Headquarters of the Kuomintang.
During the Northern Expedition, he successively served as the political director of the Second Army Headquarters, the director of the Propaganda Department of the Shandong Provincial Government, and the secretary of the Second Route Headquarters.
In the 23rd year of the Republic of China, he participated in the work of the Secret Service, was assigned as the leader of the investigation section of the Nanchang camp, and was transferred to the post of the second station in Peiping.
This year, Tianjin Station was promoted to district, Che Che became the district chief, and Zeng Zhiyi was transferred to Tianjin Station Chief.
Che Che and Zeng Zhiyi were both generals whom Dai Chunfeng trusted very much and entrusted him with important responsibilities.
After Che Che and Zeng Zhiyi were arrested, Dai Chunfeng ordered the North China side to do everything possible to find out about Che Che and Zeng Zhiyi.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door, and Mao Shun came in with a report.
"Bureau seat, urgent call from Tianjin."
Qi Wu stepped forward and grabbed the telegram, waved his hand to signal Mao Shun to leave, and handed the telegram to Dai Chunfeng with both hands.
Dai Chunfeng read the message intently.
The comrades who survived in Tianjin District took a huge risk and bribed the jailer, found out the situation of Che Che and Zeng Zhiyi, and reported it immediately.
After Che Che was arrested, the Japanese felt like they had found a treasure and intended to pry Che Che's mouth and use his confession to wipe out the Tianjin military reunification organization.
However, Che Che was severely tortured and remained unyielding and unyielding.
The cruel Japanese invaders ordered four big men, each holding Cha Che Che's hands and feet, to throw him into the air. Che Che was thrown to the point where he sometimes fainted and sometimes regained consciousness, but never uttered a word.
Two days ago, Che Che went on a hunger strike to seek a quick death.
Upon seeing this, the Japanese invaders hatched a conspiracy, abandoned severe torture, and adopted a gentle policy. They injected Che Che with nutritional injections to extend his life.
The Japanese leader asked hypocritically: "Scholar Jun, why do you destroy the law and discipline and risk your own life?"
Che Che frowned coldly and replied: "I kill the enemy and hoe the traitors, and I obey nature and obey the people. How can I destroy the law and disrupt the discipline? Seeking benevolence and getting benevolence, why should I fear death!"
His voice and look were both stern and righteous.
The Japanese invaders were helpless.
According to the latest investigation, the Japanese have now escorted Che Che to the Peking Military Police Force Reformatory to be detained in an attempt to induce him to rebel.
The cable also contains information about Zeng Zhiyi’s situation after his arrest.
After Zeng Zhiyi was arrested, he remained unmoved in the face of severe torture and inducements by the Japanese aggressors. "Every time he was tortured, he shouted loudly and expressed his joy, and even more generously stated the national justice, which made the Japanese puppets speechless." '
The cable contains two secret letters sent by Zeng Zhiyi who tried to bribe the jailer.
One is for Tianjin Station——
I have been engaged in the revolution for more than 20 years. Unfortunately, I have been captured by the enemy and puppets. I must swear to death to repay the country.
The second is a suicide note to Dai Chunfeng:
For the work at Tianjin Station, please immediately ask the bureau to assign another person to take charge. Now that the department is in the enemy's hands, knowing that it is difficult to survive, we have already made the greatest determination and are ready to sacrifice. We only hope that our Chinese civilization will continue and we will win the war of resistance.
Holding the telegraph newspaper in his hand, Dai Chunfeng's eyes were astringent and his eye sockets were slightly red.
He handed the telegram to Qi Wu and said, "Che Che and Zeng Zhiyi are all patriots of our army in Qiancheng."
Qi Wu was shocked after reading the telegram, "Commander, we must rescue Che and Zeng at all costs."
"Mimic electricity." Dai Chunfeng said in a deep voice with a serious expression.
Qi Wu immediately held the wooden folder and picked up paper and pen to record.
"Let the Tianjin District send people to sneak into the reformatory and pass on my message to Che Che." Dai Chunfeng paused and continued, "We might as well pretend to surrender to the Japanese, and then use the camera to escape, in order to be reinstated."
Qi Wu stopped writing. He looked at Dai Chunfeng, frowned and said, "Zhao Che Che is a strong man. Judging from his temperament, words and deeds, he will not be willing to bend his knees and live as a Japanese slave."
"I know, I know." Dai Chunfeng sighed, his voice slightly hoarse, "Pass my words to Che Che, just say that I, Dai Chunfeng, beg him, stay alive, stay alive, the anti-Japanese war needs him! The party and the country need him."
"Yes!" Qi Wu nodded silently.
"Also, try to summon Zeng Wenjin." Dai Chunfeng continued, "Just say, don't sacrifice yourself lightly, I will allow him to pretend to surrender to the Japanese for future plans!"
Qi Wu stopped writing again and gave a wry smile, "Setting down, Zeng Zhiyi has a death wish."
"I know, I know, I know." Dai Chunfeng was a little anxious, "Send my message over."
In his heart, he was pleased with Che Che and Zeng Zhiyi's perseverance, but now he had a headache.
Qi Wu shook his head and sighed with emotion. Both Che Che and Zeng Zhiyi were both scholars. They joined the army just to write, but they had an admirable iron will and a pride that would rather break than bend!
Putting away the folder, Qi Wu handed the telegram manuscript to Dai Chunfeng.
Dai Chunfeng looked carefully and nodded slightly, "Quickly call Ning Zhonghan."
After Che Che and Zeng Zhiyi were arrested, the Tianjin District temporarily appointed Ning Zhonghan, who was lurking in the Italian Concession in Tianjin, as the acting district chief. He was ordered to take charge of Tianjin District affairs in the face of danger.
After a while, Qi Wu left and came back again. There was a solemn look on his serious expression, "Seat down, the 'Blue Bird' emergency call."
Dai Chunfeng also looked solemn.
Having just warned the bureau headquarters and informed that Shanghai Rite had used a so-called radio wave locator to search for radio stations, Cheng Qianfan took the risk again and called, not in the name of the Shanghai Special Intelligence Team or "Xiao Mian", but in the name of "Xiao Mian". The call came in the name of "Blue Bird", which made Dai Chunfeng feel nervous.
