Zhao Hongliang, Ma Chaoqun, the two team leaders, and all the team members can be said to have been busy for half the night. Fortunately, there are many team members in the intelligence department and they can rotate, so they are not overly tired. When the second group of people comes, there will be more people, and the situation will get better.
When Zhao Hongliang received the notice from Jiang Tianxiang, he was conducting an in-depth investigation at the security division. However, after asking some telegraph operators, he felt that these people's problems were not big.
After contacting the military police, he received a new order from Qian Jinxun, so he immediately notified a battalion commander in the security division who had dealt with him.
When the battalion commander heard him say that there might be Japanese spies hiding in Pingba Village, Chenggaozi County, and Shishan Town, the expression on his face immediately became ferocious, and he thanked Zhao Hongliang. , immediately turned around and went to pull people.
After a while, the battalion commander successfully applied for the order. Although his direct regiment leaders had also reported it to the security division at all levels, everyone in the security division was now very excited. Therefore, taking into account the wishes of the people, the division headquarters was happy to go along with the situation.
Under Zhao Hongliang's arrangement, the battalion commander named Wang Jia took his battalion of about 600 people and divided them directly into three companies and handed them over to Zhao Hongliang, Ma Chaoqun, and Zhang Zhikai respectively.
And these three people each led two teams of intelligence agents to surround Shishan Town, Chenggaozi County and Hepingba Village. The order is that you are only allowed in and not allowed out. And if anyone is going out, just take it down first. It’s already this time, haven’t you seen the major inspection? What is your state of mind now that you are still running away? There must be something wrong in your heart!
Call the local police chief, village chief, town chief, etc., and the first target will be the immigrant population. Everyone must come and be screened. The work was quickly carried out in an orderly manner.
Shan said that Zhao Hongliang was personally in charge of Chenggaozi County. In the remaining two places, Pingba Village has a population of only about a hundred. He felt that if a spy wanted to hide in Pingba Village, although he would be able to detect danger immediately, everything would be mutually reinforcing, and it would also be detrimental to his hiding.
Then only Shishan Town and Chenggaozi County are the most suspected. Zhao Hongliang assigned Chenggaozi County, which was the most difficult, most populous, and most likely to hide Japanese spies, to himself.
As soon as he entered the range of Chenggaozi, Zhao Hongliang turned around and said: "Battle Commander Wang, please help your brothers to surround the entire Chenggaozi County as quickly as possible. Anyone who wants to go out, no matter who it is, , take it directly!”
Chenggaozi is a county town with gates on all sides. It is quite easy to block it directly. Wang Jia immediately ordered his men to block all the city gates and dispatched two teams of patrol sentries to patrol outside the county seat. Anyone suspicious would be detained first.
Zhao Hongliang immediately asked a group of agents from the Intelligence Department to help them. Each stuck point had several agents of his own to help. He was afraid of the cunning of Japanese spies. These soldiers had no experience in dealing with Japanese spies who used disguises, sneak attacks, etc.
Zhao Hongliang asked Hua Zhang and Yang Jiexin to immediately find the police chief, inspector and others. These people were all very familiar on the street. Zhao Hongliang looked at the few guys in police uniforms in front of him and said: "Within half a month, any foreigner who rents a house, buys a house, lives in a hotel, or visits relatives, listen! What I said I want to check all the immigrants. You have your familiar subordinates lead my people to check all the people I just mentioned one by one. No one is allowed to be missed!"
Just when Zhao Hongliang gave the order to dispatch a group of agents from the Intelligence Division, led by locals, to start investigating in separate areas. In Chenggaozi County, a person hurriedly walked in through the door of a triple courtyard in the west. This man was short in stature and had dark skin. He quickly entered the room on the left carrying two paper bags of fried dough sticks.
The short figure put the paper bag on the table and whispered: "The Chinese sealed the west gate and replaced it with regular soldiers, and with them came some people in plain clothes. I suspect they are Chinese agents. .”
The two men sitting at the table looked at each other after hearing this. The young man in his twenties on the left asked suspiciously: "Where are the city gates in other directions?"
After hearing what he said, the man on the right who was less than forty years old narrowed his eyes and said, "No need to ask, the west gate is sealed, and the other gates must be the same."
The short figure looked a little ugly and said: "Then what should we do? I feel that the other party is coming to us." After saying that, he and the young man looked at the man who was about forty years old. The latter should be the backbone of these three people. He paused and said: "How did they find them here? And so fast?" After saying that, he shook his head again and continued: "These are not important now. , we must prepare for the worst.”
After saying that, he looked at the forty-year-old man, pointed at the young man, and said: "Yangping, you are bookish. This is the most natural disguise. You can go out now while there is still time. Go inform Matsuo-kun, Hosokawa-kun and the others. Let them set a few fires anywhere in the city to divert the attention of the Chinese agents. When the fires are over, everyone will meet at Ximenli Street. I remember there is a big family there with the last name Gao, his family has a car. Let Matsuo and Hosokawa lead people to control the Gao family. If by then... the situation is really not right, we must concentrate our efforts, use the car to clear the way, and rush out of the west gate."
The young man nodded, pulled out a pistol from behind his waist, checked it, then hid it again and walked out of the door.
Seeing this, the man in his forties looked at the five-short figure again and said: "You take some steamed buns and fried dough sticks, squat at the courtyard gate and eat as a cover to show me the wind. You must always keep an eye on the street entrances on both sides. If there is any movement, notify me immediately and I will destroy the transmitter and code book."
Hearing this, the short-built man reached out to pick up a few buns, turned around and walked out of the door. The man in his forties immediately got up and went to the back room. He dragged a suitcase out from under the bed. After opening it, he took out the radio inside and opened the lid. After turning it on, he picked up a kettle. , poured the water in. Some circuits inside were momentarily short-circuited and damaged.
Then he violently removed all the casings of the transmitter, opened the door of a double closet next to it, and pulled out the baffle below. Try to lay the disassembled transmitter flat on the bottom and cover the baffle.
Finally, he left only one book on the table in his bedroom, "Xing Ping Hui Hai Quan Shu", which was about mystical techniques, geomantic omen, and feng shui. The rest was all packed in the same suitcase from before. Then put the suitcase flat in the closet. There is nothing unusual about it from the outside.
The man in his forties closed the cabinet door, turned around and took "The Complete Book of Stars and Seas" in his hand. He went to the outer room, used a stove hook to lift the stove plate, and threw the book inside. Then he filled up another pot of water and sat on the stove.
After doing all this, he felt a little calmer, picked up the two bags of food, came to the door of the courtyard, and said: "Let's go to Ximenli Street." As he spoke, he handed one of the bags of food to Wu Short, and continued: "Hold it, you can use it as a cover. You go first, I will follow you."
The short figure didn't say anything after hearing this. He swallowed the buns in his mouth directly, took the food bag, turned left and walked towards the street. Just when he was about to reach the street corner, a man in his forties also walked out of the door and followed him.
The short figure was very alert. As soon as he turned around the corner, he saw from the corner of his eye the other end of the street on the right. A man in a police uniform came in from a distance. Behind him were four people in civilian clothes. A man, and half a squad of soldiers.
He didn't even turn his head, but raised his right hand as if nothing had happened, scratched the back of his head, and walked through the diagonal street on the left with normal steps.
The forty-year-old man behind him saw the other party's movements and immediately understood: "There is a Chinese agent on the street to the right of the other party." So he took a bigger step, and when he reached the intersection, he did not take that step. It was a diagonal street, but crossed to another street on the left rear, and then turned into an alley between two houses. In this way, he walked back and forth through several alleys and caught up with the short figure in front of him again. At the same time, he did not let himself be exposed to the sight of the intelligence agents...
Led by a policeman she knew well in the west of the city, Hua Zhang, together with Lian Mingli, Wen De, and a master from the operations department, walked to an area assigned to her by Zhao Hongliang. She is now the acting captain of the fifth team of the Intelligence Section. The reason why she did not remove the word "agent" is because she made a mistake last time and Fan Keqin's punishment period for her has not yet ended. Moreover, after the expansion, there are not all the people.
Along the way, she met many local residents who came out to watch the fun, but Hua Zhang ignored them. She only needed to be responsible for her own area.
Having just arrived in the west of the city, Hua Zhang immediately felt something was wrong after turning around a street. Because far away, a person walking out of the other side of the street didn't even look at him, then scratched his hair and walked through.
Huazhang felt something was wrong because many locals along the way were watching the fun or asking each other what happened. This is the reaction a normal person should have. But although this person seemed to be fine, he didn't even turn his head and walked forward. Logically speaking, from the angle of the other party, at least he could see himself and others from the corner of his eye. There were half a class of security guards behind him. The soldier, so conspicuous, didn't even look at him or turn his head. This in itself is unreasonable.
