A few days later, the eight people released by the Japanese gendarmerie in Shanghai were secretly sent to the mountain city by the Juntong National Salvation Army. Zhou Changlin, deputy director of the Juntong Intelligence Department and chief of the Second Section, personally began to screen them.
"Sir, my name is Wang Tiande. I am 32 years old. I am the officer of the Second Brigade of the National Salvation Army in Shanghai. After I and others were captured by the Japanese gendarmerie in Shanghai, we were imprisoned in the gendarmerie prison."
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu" Wang Tiande suddenly started crying when he said this.
"It's okay. Just keep talking. As long as you explain clearly, everything will be fine." Zhou Changlin looked at Wang Tiande, who looked elegant and upright, and reassured him with a smile.
"Thank you, sir. I originally thought I would be shot by the military police, until one day Masako Minamizo, the head of the special operations section of the military police, found me and wanted me to serve them."
"Sir, I really don't dare to refuse. My old mother is in Shanghai, and my sister is also under Japanese surveillance. I have no choice." Wang Tiande had a bitter look on his face, full of despair.
"You did a good job and were not fooled by the devil's rhetoric." Zhou Changlin gave Wang Tiande a thoughtful look.
Of course he won't believe Wang Tiande's nonsense. Just surrender if you say you will. Isn't it possible that this is a well-rehearsed strategy? If you want me to believe what you say, I have to explain something.
Wang Tiande may have also seen that it was not easy to convince Zhou Changlin, and shouted with tears in his eyes: "Sir, how can I, a dignified Chinese man, be willing to seek the skin of a tiger and sit with that despised traitor? Let me tell the truth. I will surrender myself." Because I don’t want to sacrifice my life for the Japanese and bring shame to my ancestors.”
"Then tell me something that will make me believe you?" Zhou Changlin didn't want to waste time and went straight to a showdown.
"Okay sir, after I was released by the gendarmerie, I followed the instructions of Minami Masako and met with others at Nanhegou, Zhabei. Many people did not want to return to the National Salvation Army and went home one after another. In the end, only 8 people were left."
"That night, we were planning to venture out of Shanghai in the middle of the night to look for the National Salvation Army in the countryside. But around 10 o'clock in the morning, when I went out for a convenience with a stomachache, I saw Zheng Jun, who was released with us, quietly talking to a foreign man...!
"What did he say?" Zhou Changlin was a little excited.
"They spoke too quietly, I only heard one sentence... The section chief has delivered the radio station, and everything is going according to plan." Wang Tiande thought for a few seconds and replied with a sure look on his face.
"That Zheng Jun actually knows the radio station?" Zhou Changlin stood up excitedly. If there is a radio station, there must be a complete code book.
"Besides these, what else do you know?" Zhou Changlin asked with gleaming eyes.
"Sorry sir, that's all I heard."
"Sir, for the sake of my surrender and meritorious service, can you help me rescue my old mother and sister from Shanghai? They are innocent." Wang Tiande burst into tears, obviously missing his family members who were still in Shanghai.
"Don't worry, as long as Zheng Jun is interrogated and the radio station is seized, your family will be reunited with you safely."
"Let's do this. You go back quietly and stay with them for a few days. I need to secretly investigate and interrogate Zheng Jun." Zhou Changlin licked his lips and signaled to the guards to send Wang Tiande back.
"Sir, you must save my mother and sister." Wang Tiande cried before leaving.
…
"Director, do you think this matter needs to be used?" After Zhou Changlin interrogated Wang Tiande, he hurried to the secretary's office to report to Mao Cheng.
"Old Zhou, let's have a cup of tea first, and we two brothers will chat slowly." Mao Cheng smiled and made Zhou Changlin a cup of tea.
Although he was more than 10,000 people below the military uniform, his qualifications were not much higher than those of other old men. Zhou Changlin was the one he wanted to win over.
"Thank you, director." Zhou Changlin leaned down and took the tea cup flattered.
"Lao Zhou, how do you think this matter should be handled?"
Zhou Changlin took a sip of tea and replied with a serious face: "Director, what I mean is to interrogate Zheng Jun secretly first. As long as the radio code book is found and the people on Zheng Jun's line are secretly controlled, the radio station will For our use, we can send whatever information we want to that bitch Minami Masako!
"Hahahaha, you're right." Mao Cheng gently clapped his hands.
"What's the next step?" Mao Cheng asked with burning eyes.
"Wang Tiande will be a trump card in the hands of our military commander in the future, a knife inserted into the Japanese military police stationed in Shanghai. I believe Masako Minami will regret it." Zhou Changlin's face was full of excitement.
"Thirty-six strategies." Mao Cheng asked with a smile.
"Countermeasures." Zhou Changlin took over the words with a smile.
"Hahahaha." They both laughed at the same time.
Mao Cheng felt that this time the military commander was not only able to crack the radio group carefully arranged by the Japanese, but more importantly, God sent Wang Tiande to the military commander.
…
In the military torture room, Zheng Jun was beaten until he was covered in blood. He was beaten to death and he didn't expect that his identity would be torn apart just after he arrived at the mountain city. The hidden plan of Masako's team turned out to be so useless.
""Woooooooo, stop fighting, I'll use all my moves. "Zheng Jun was trembling all over and howling loudly.
It hurt so much. For the first time, he knew what torture felt like. It was simply not something a normal person could bear.
"Where is the radio station?" Zhou Changlin asked coldly.
"In Linjia Village on the outskirts of Shanghai, the Gao family of the third family at the east end of the village has a basement. The telegraph operator and radio station are there." Zheng Jun shook his head and said it all. He knew that his life could not be saved. I just want to avoid suffering before I die.
…
Datong Hunan Restaurant on Dongping Street, Huanshan Road, Shancheng. Wang Tiande, who has been in Shancheng for 5 days, spent most of his time training at a location secretly arranged by Zhou Changlin. Today, he took advantage of the holiday to go to the Hunan Restaurant for a big meal. He ate this meal together. I walked for an hour, then went downstairs to pay the bill and walked to a grocery store to buy a pack of cigarettes.
"Boss, here's a box of old knives." Wang Tiande took out the money from his arms and was about to put it on the counter. Perhaps accidentally, the banknotes fell to the ground.
The shop owner took out cigarettes from the counter and asked with a smile: "Brother, your accent is not local?" "
"Well, I'm from Xiangxi." Wang Tiande picked up the money from the ground, opened a pack of cigarettes, took out one and started smoking.
"Xiangxi is a good place. I know a beautiful woman from Xiangxi." The shop owner said to himself. It may be that my ears were itchy, and I scratched my left ear at the same time.
"Of course, our Xiangxi girls are the most gentle and beautiful." Wang Tiande narrowed his eyes and replied proudly.
"Blacksmith, Miss Masako says hello to you." The shop owner pretended to clean up the counter and said softly.
"Tell Miss Masako that the military commander is still screening me. I will implement the next plan immediately and will never let down Miss Masako's high expectations." After Wang Tiande said the last sentence, he turned and walked out of the grocery store.
After the store owner waited for Wang Tiande to leave, he sent a message on the radio at three o'clock that afternoon. The general meaning was that the "blacksmith" had gained the initial trust of the military commander. Although he was still being screened, he was implementing the next step step by step.
