"Americans have never considered us true friends!"
The words Meng Shaoyuan said at the US Consulate last time are still fresh in my mind!
U.S. Consul General Don Bonanno still remembers it vividly.
This young man who is making all the difference in Shanghai is really awesome.
Moreover, he didn't seem to want to show too much mercy when he spoke.
In addition to Meng Shaoyuan and Bonanou, there is also a strange foreigner here today.
Bonanno had no introduction.
Meng Shaoyuan didn't ask either.
He has never been a man of many words.
"Meng." Bonanou said straight to the point: "I have informed the country of your personal demands. I believe that a new round of aid to China will arrive soon, and Sino-US relations will also open a new chapter. of."
Meng Shaoyuan smiled and said nothing.
Americans can only believe half of what they say.
They will definitely increase aid to China, but that will be based on their own interests.
Americans never give in vain.
friend?
National and national quality inspection, so-called friends are based on mutual interests!
Besides, when it comes to this kind of assistance, it doesn’t matter what you say.
Not even a voice.
The reason why Bonanou said this first was just to lighten the atmosphere.
Seeing Meng Shaoyuan's indifferent look, Bonanou seemed a little bored. He seemed to finally think of the stranger present:
"Let me introduce to you, Meng Shaoyuan, director of the Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai Provincial Supervision Division and Anti-Smuggling Division of the Military Command Bureau, and chief of the Operations Section. Ah, he has many titles..."
Then, he pointed at the foreigner again: "Mr. Morris S. Haywood, his external identity is an American businessman, but his true identity is the personal agent of Director William Joseph Donovan of the United States Intelligence Coordination Agency. !”
The United States Intelligence Coordination Office was established on June 22, 1941.
Germany went to war against the Soviet Union. The severity of the situation has greatly exceeded previous expectations, and Roosevelt quickly made a decision to establish the U.S. Intelligence Coordination Agency.
Director Donovan asked for a grant of $450,000.
This is the predecessor of the future famous CIA!
It was just the prototype of the CIA at this time, and it was in a very bad situation.
Their official jobs are sabotage, espionage, counterespionage and deployment, and the implementation of covert operations, and they seem to have great power.
However, FBI Director Hoover has always disliked the Intelligence Coordination Bureau and opposed them everywhere.
Drinking caused the Intelligence Coordination Bureau to struggle and was even in danger of being disbanded.
In the United States, no one is optimistic about the future of the Intelligence Coordination Agency.
But in China, there is one person who knows very well how bright the future is for the Intelligence Coordination Bureau and Director Donovan:
Meng Shaoyuan!
"You guys talk first, I have some official business there."
Bonanou knew that his mission had been completed, so he naturally got up and left here.
Now, only Meng Shaoyuan and Heywood are left here.
"Mr. Leonard Oyewells, Chief Donovan's brains advisor and close friend, has asked me to express his gratitude to you."
This was Haywood's opening statement.
Meng Shaoyuan smiled.
Of course be grateful to yourself.
Because, he rescued his uncle, Professor Weinberg Oyewells, and successfully faked his death and sent him back to the United States.
The professor kept his promise.
And he was on the line with the CIA, no, the Intelligence Coordination Bureau.
No one knows the value of the current Intelligence Coordination Agency.
You know it yourself!
"It's nothing. Kindness is the nature of us Chinese people. We will always help people when we see them."
These few words could come out of Master Meng's mouth, God only knows.
If he hadn't guessed Weinberg's identity, the professor's life and death would have been none of his business!
But who could have thought of this?
The Chinese saved Professor Weinberg, and that was clear and obvious.
"Thanks."
Heywood was very polite: "China is falling into a difficult battle against Japan. The United States has always regarded China as its friend. Director Donovan and Mr. Leonard also regard the Chinese and You consider yourself your friend.
So I came here with a special mission. Our Intelligence Coordination Bureau is willing to establish a secret alliance with the Military Command Bureau and do our best to help you. "
Meng Shaoyuan said "Oh": "How will you help us?"
Heywood smiled and said: "Before this, I think we should be more honest with each other. You have provided us with quite a lot of intelligence, and we also know that you accurately judged the time for Germany to attack the Soviet Union.
We are very interested in this. Through what channel did you get this information? What is your intelligence network? Before cooperation, I think as allies we don't have to hide from each other. "
Meng Shaoyuan said "Oh" again.
Then what?
There is no more.
His attitude made Heywood a little confused: "Mr. Meng, I hope to hear your answer."
"My answer? Do you really want to hear my answer?" Meng Shaoyuan smiled: "Are you willing to do your best to help us? I am really grateful. You are trying to steal some secrets at the Spanish Embassy in Washington. It ended up being sabotaged by the FBI, and even its own agents were arrested, right?”
Heywood was stunned.
How did he know?
Yes, FBI Director Hoover sabotaged it intentionally.
When agents from the Intelligence Coordination Bureau infiltrated the Spanish embassy again, the FBI dispatched vehicles, turned on bright lights, and blasted sirens, and finally captured the panicked agents.
Although Donovan was extremely angry, there was nothing he could do.
The Intelligence and Investigation Bureau has been completely disgraced.
However, this happened not long ago.
How did the Chinese know it so quickly?
"Cooperation? How to cooperate? Do you help us, or do we help you, Mr. Heywood?" Meng Shaoyuan's voice was filled with sarcasm: "Are you coming to me from a strong position? Do your best to help us. ?You guys are really humorous. If you don’t want to, let me tell you what the truth is.
The truth is that the Intelligence Coordination Bureau has been in a very pessimistic situation since the first day it was established, and you have been restricted in every aspect.
The FBI and Hoover look down upon you at all, and they are still suppressing and ostracizing you everywhere. Compared to Hoover's importance in the heart of the President of the United States, Director Donovan doesn't seem to be that important, right? "
Heywood was stunned.
How many secrets does this Chinese person know?
Where did his intelligence source come from?
"It's our turn to help you." Meng Shaoyuan's voice was low: "Because now we are Donovan's most trustworthy friends!"
