Zhang Hanqiu doubted Xu Dalong's statement and said: "How is that possible? The person who painted the painting has never seen me. Can he draw my portrait just based on Chen Xuefeng's description?"
Xu Dalong really admired Zhang Hanqiu's stubbornness and wondered how this woman could engage in underground work and develop a working group. No wonder something happened to her in history, which ultimately led to the destruction of the entire group of seven.
He made up his mind to bring this stubborn woman to the base area.
He said: "If I tell you this, you won't believe it no matter what. I will let you understand."
Xu Dalong asked Wei Dayong to buy drawing pencils and drawing paper, and took Zhang Hanqiu to a teahouse and asked for a private room.
He said: "I have never met your father, and I don't know any of your other relatives and friends. Please pick a familiar person and describe his appearance to me."
After Zhang Hanqiu thought about it, he described his uncle's appearance to Xu Dalong.
Based on Zhang Hanqiu's description, Xu Dalong quickly drew the outline of his uncle's face, and then drew the general appearance.
Zhang Hanqiu was very surprised after reading it. She really didn't expect that Xu Dalong could draw it so closely based on his own description.
At Xu Dalong's request, she constantly reminded her of the details of her uncle's facial features, and Xu Dalong also continued to make modifications. In less than an hour, a complete portrait appeared on the paper.
After reading it, Zhang Hanqiu was extremely amazed: there was basically no difference between the portrait and the photo of his uncle.
Now she was completely convinced and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Xu, but I am too stubborn. For the benefit of the organization, I am willing to accept the organization's arrangements."
Xu Dalong said happily: "That's good. You are most familiar with the working group you lead. Choose someone to take over the position of your group leader. As for that radio station, don't repair it. I will give it to the working group. New radio station. Please seize the time to do a good job in the aftermath of the working group, and then evacuate quickly."
Zhang Hanqiu has a strong working ability, and she quickly arranged the follow-up work of the liaison group. Monk Wei sent Zhang Hanqiu and Zhang Liya to Guanglong Gold Mine first, and after Xu Dalong completed the code deciphering work, he took them back to the Mawu Mountain base.
After completing the task of rescuing the liaison team, Xu Dalong sent a telegram to the person in charge of the former Chongqing office.
The person in charge was very satisfied and asked Xu Dalong to protect himself and leave Chongqing as soon as possible.
This morning, as soon as Xu Dalong got up, the phone call came from the black room. Xiao Na said excitedly: "Mr. Xu, the code-breaking machine has been successfully developed. Please come and accept it as soon as possible."
After breakfast, Xu Dalong and Wei Dayong drove to the black room. After entering the studio, he saw Braun and Deputy Director Peng waiting in the room.
When they saw Xu Dalong, they both stood up and called Xu Dalong to come over and watch.
On the table is a mechanical device similar to an old-fashioned typewriter. There are five rows of keys on it, one of which is English letters, and the remaining four rows are numeric keys. Each time you press a letter, press and hold the keyboard again. A set of passwords will be generated. Just press different letters to generate a new set of passwords based on the original password. Users can easily change the original codebook into a new codebook, which is very convenient. It is more difficult for a codebreaker to decipher it in a short time than to reach the sky.
Braun said excitedly: "Mr. Xu, we have used the code-breaking machine to decipher several previous enemy telegrams. This is also a guide for deciphering newly intercepted telegrams. About 10% of the contents can be deciphered in a short time. If enough telegrams can be intercepted, we can be quite confident in deciphering the enemy's telegrams within a month. However, if the enemy's radio code changes too quickly, there is still no way. We must master the rules of code change."
Xiao Na was afraid of dampening Xu Dalong's enthusiasm, so he quickly added, "Even so, the successful development of the code-breaking machine has improved the success rate of telegram deciphering."
Deputy Director Peng was also a shrewd man, and like Xiaona, he praised the code-breaking machine.
Braun is a technical talent and does not have so many scruples. He looked at Xu Dalong and said directly: "Mr. Xu, just having a password deciphering machine is not enough. You also need to master the rules of password setting. Since you can design a password machine, you can What about the rules that prevent the enemy from cracking passwords?"
Xu Dalong nodded and said: "As far as I know, there is a key machine that is matched with the code deciphering machine. I am not familiar with the key machine set by the Japanese army, but I still know the basic principles. This kind of encryption machine The key machine, also known as the light point key machine, can be calculated through mathematical calculations."
Everyone was very excited after hearing this.
Braun said eagerly: "Can you build a key machine and know the calculation method of the deduction?"
Xu Dalong said: "The key machine should be able to be built. The calculation method also has this idea, but it requires repeated deductions to master the Japanese calculation method. This requires assistants and people who are talented in mathematics."
Hearing this, Xiaona, Deputy Director Peng and Braun all laughed.
Xiaona said: "It's easy. More than half of the people in our black room have expertise in mathematics, and are even geniuses. Just figure out the ideas and let them do the calculations."
Xu Dalong said: "Okay, I will draw the drawing of the key machine now."
Braun was very anxious. He personally prepared drawing paper and pen for Xu Dalong and sat aside to accompany him.
Xu Dalong couldn't help but feel a little awkward when he saw Braun staring directly at him from the side.
He smiled and said: "Mr. Braun, you have to go and do some work first. I can finish the drawing alone."
Braun realized something, smiled sheepishly and said, "Okay, we won't disturb you. If you need anything, just ask."
The structure of the key machine is simpler than that of the cipher machine. Xu Dalong only spent one morning to draw it. Braun quickly took the drawings and went to Deputy Team Leader Peng.
Xu Dalong knew that even if they worked overtime, the technicians would not be able to come up with the key mechanism today.
He had nothing to do in the afternoon, so he politely declined. Kuroshiro kept him an invitation to dinner, saying that he had some personal matters to deal with in the afternoon.
When Xu Dalong was about to leave, he suddenly remembered something and said to Xiao Na: "Director Xiao, are there any spare radio stations in the black room? I want two."
Xiaona smiled and said: "This is a professional telecommunications department. If you don't want anything else, there are many radio stations. I will send someone to get it for you." After that, he wrote a note and handed it to a staff member. .
The staff member came back soon, followed by two staff members, each holding a radio in their hands.
Xu Dalong took a look and saw that it was the latest 100W radio produced in the United States. This power was enough to be used across the country without the need for a relay station. He was very satisfied, thanked Xiaona, and then asked the staff to help him take the radio to the car outside.
Wei Dayong started the car and said, "Master Long, where are we going now?"
Xu Dalong said: "Let's take the radio back to Lin Mansion first, then go out for a big meal, and watch a movie in the afternoon. Let's do nothing today and just relax."
Wei Dayong likes watching movies very much. After hearing this, he was very happy and said: "I have gone out for a walk in the morning. The cinema is showing Heroes. Let's go see this movie in the afternoon."
Xu Dalong said: "Haven't you already seen this movie?"
Wei Dayong chuckled and said, "I've seen it twice, but I still want to see it."
Xu Dalong smiled and said: "Do you like the heroine in it?"
Wei Dayong did not deny it, scratched his head in embarrassment, and giggled.
Xu Dalong smiled and said: "If you really fall in love with this heroine, let's find time to go to Nanjing and kidnap her back to you as your wife."
Wei Dayong is now married. His wife is beautiful, capable, and has a bit of a temper. It is very easy to deal with Wei Dayong.
Wei Dayong hurriedly said: "Master Long, it depends on what you said. You don't even dare to lend me eight courages."
The two laughed together. Xu Dalong said: "Then don't watch this movie. Let's go around and see if there is anything new."
Wei Dayong said: "Okay, just listen to Master Long."
Xu Dalong and Wei Dayong returned to Lin Mansion and picked up two special forces members. The two of them stayed at Lin Mansion every day and felt uncomfortable. They heard that it was a holiday today and they were taken out to play. They were all very happy.
When Xu Dalong comes to Chongqing this time, the Black Room has already stated that they will be responsible for reimbursing all expenses during his stay in Chongqing.
Of course he was not polite, so he took Wei Dayong and others to the top hotel in Chongqing to enjoy a feast, then went to a department store to buy some gifts for everyone, and then went to watch a movie. Then we went to another restaurant and had a big meal.
Wei Dayong and the two special operations team members were very happy and felt that they were not having enough fun, so they asked Xu Dalong to take them to the dance hall to open their eyes.
Jinkaili Ballroom is the largest and most luxurious ballroom in Chongqing. It is also a gathering place for celebrities, beauties, and dignitaries from all walks of life. At night, the neon lights flash and all kinds of luxury cars are parked in front of the door. Men's suits are crisp and women's dresses are gorgeous, showing the prosperity of the capital.
Although General Lin was a low-key man and the car was not considered luxurious, the car had a license plate number that was ranked high by the military command department. The greeters in front of the ballroom also knew that the owner of the car was of noble status and went forward to greet him attentively.
Xu Dalong and others are all in suits and leather shoes. Their strong bodies, strong military temperament, and invincible domineering attitude form a unique aura that is intimidating. Many guests see this and consciously go there. Dodge aside.
After entering the ballroom, Xu Dalong and others walked straight towards the stage. A waiter wearing a white shirt and bow tie came up to them, greeted them with a professional smile, and asked them which area they wanted to sit in.
Wei Dayong said: "Find a better location."
In a ballroom, the closer to the stage, the higher the consumption, and the higher the status of the guests.
The waiter saw that the four people were young and had unfamiliar faces. He stopped halfway and asked them to sit at a relatively remote wine table.
Wei Dayong felt that the waiter was a bit condescending, so he took out a few ten-yuan French coins and handed them over.
The waiter saw how generous the visitor was and after accepting the tip with a smile on his face, he led them forward and found a relatively good seat for them to sit down.
There was a better position in front of them, but Xu Dalong and others didn't want to be too high-profile. They thought this position was acceptable, so they sat down without saying anything.
Some snacks will be given to the guests in the ballroom, and other high-end food needs to be paid for by the guests themselves. Xu Dalong is not a very particular person, but Wei Dayong, especially the two special operations team members, rarely come into contact with such situations. Xu Dalong believes that they are all heroes who fought against the Japanese and have been with him through life and death, so they should enjoy better treatment, so I ordered expensive wine and fine pastries to reward them.
When the waiters saw the men's bold actions, they looked even higher at them.
A special operations team member saw that the waiter was so attentive and gave him some tips. Seeing the waiter thanking him repeatedly, the special operations team members felt very happy.
They usually only have a meager allowance and are very frugal when spending money. After hearing that Wei Dayong said that the consumption was paid for by Guofu anyway, they became very proud and generous.
At 8 o'clock in the evening, the dance hall officially opened. A handsome host said a few passionate opening remarks, and the song and dance performance began.
Following a burst of melodious music, a group of simply dressed dancers appeared on the stage. They wore top hats, short-sleeved shirts and bow ties on their upper bodies. The shirts were short and close-fitting, perfectly showing off their proud figures, and they wore miniskirts on their lower bodies. , generously displaying a pair of white-flowered breasts. Under the cheerful music rhythm, the dancers danced neatly, showing their youthful vitality to the fullest.
Xu Dalong has seen a lot of such scenes, and Wei Dayong has also seen it with Xu Dalong. Despite this, he also has a feeling of excitement. It was the first time for the two special operations team members to see this scene. Seeing the tall dancers twisting their slender waists and flying up and down, their bodies were all hot and their eyes were wide open.
At this time, there was applause in the ballroom. A slim young woman wearing a cheongsam separated from the dancers, came to the center of the stage, stretched her voice and sang.
Her voice is clear, soft, and exceptionally beautiful. The guests applauded, and it was clear that the diva was a hit.
Soon people came off the dance floor and started dancing. Xu Dalong and others did not bring their own dance partners. Wei Dayong and the two special forces members were not good at dancing. Xu Dalong also had no intention of dancing. The four of them just drank and chatted here.
Xu Dalong has noticed that one-third of the best seats in front of them are still vacant. Someone should have booked them in advance.
