On June 1, 1941, Meng Shaoyuan convened the "June Meeting" with key members.
At the meeting, a detailed "Houyi Plan" was formulated.
The entire "Houyi Plan" is divided into three parts:
The evacuation work, the covert work after the fall of the public settlement, and the subsequent armed struggle.
By November, most of the "Houyi Plan" was completed.
"Meng Shaoyuan, single-handedly saved Shanghai from falling!"
This is the highest praise Dai Li gave to Meng Shaoyuan.
Afterwards, many people discovered that Meng Shaoyuan had made a judgment very early that all the public concessions would definitely fall.
The history of the isolated island will definitely end!
It was precisely because of his confidence in his own judgment that Shanghai was fully prepared in advance.
At this time, the situation in Shanghai was changing, dark clouds were looming, and the "Houyi Plan" had reached its final step.
The entire Shanghai is divided into eight major combat areas. Each area is composed of specific leaders, middle-level cadres, and grassroots agents.
Commander-in-Chief, Meng Shaoyuan!
Code name: Master!
Deputy Commander-in-Chief, Wu Jingyi!
Code name: Sir!
On November 8, Meng Shaoyuan summoned the "bosses", or persons in charge, of the eight regions in batches.
He once again clarified with them the scope and responsibilities of their respective responsibilities.
At the same time, he also gave each of them a gift:
A pistol!
"You have one, and District Chief Wu and I also have one."
Meng Shaoyuan told them this:
"This pistol is not used to kill the enemy, but is prepared for yourself. After the concession fell, the situation changed, and some of you will be in desperate situations, including me. At that time, the last bullet Keep the bullets for yourself!”
Keep the last bullet for yourself!
At this time, the Shanghai District Headquarters of the Military Command Bureau had almost all evacuated, leaving only Yuan Jian and a small number of personnel to stay behind and continue to issue orders in the name of the Shanghai District Headquarters of the Military Command Bureau in order to confuse the enemy.
Most of the prisoners held secretly have been dealt with.
The person specifically responsible for this project is Zhang Liao.
"Report, Takuma Gaohira has solved it."
"knew."
"Mad Dog" Takahira Takuma.
The nickname Mad Dog was not given to him by the Chinese, but by the Japanese.
This man was born with a grudge against the Chinese. Since he was transferred to Shanghai, his hands have been stained with blood.
In the end, he successfully attracted Meng Shaoyuan's attention.
Meng Shaoyuan designed and captured this mad dog.
Since then, "Mad Dog" Takahira Takuma has been removed from the list of the Japanese secret service in Shanghai.
However, he has been locked up in a secret prison in the Shanghai District of the Military Command Bureau.
This time, on the eve of the fall of the concession, he was also on the execution list.
The executor, Zhang Liao!
"How many more people are on the list?"
"It's almost done. There are still a few small roles left. I will personally supervise the execution."
"Very good." Meng Shaoyuan nodded: "After doing this, you can also implement the latent plan. You are the highest-level latent agent and are directly responsible to me."
"yes."
No matter what time it is, Zhang Liao always looks gloomy, as if everyone owes him a large sum of money.
…
"Consul General Bonanou, Mr. Heywood, hello."
3 p.m., U.S. Consulate General in Shanghai.
"Hello, Mr. Meng." Heywood said straight to the point: "I have reported all the plans you proposed to the country. Director Donovan fully accepts your suggestions."
"good!"
good news.
This means that my cooperation with the US Intelligence Coordination Agency is officially in full swing!
"The consulate is ready to receive guests." Consul General Don Bonanu said immediately: "We have a car that will wait for an hour at your designated place every day at 10 a.m. and 2 p.m.!"
"Thanks."
Meng Shaoyuan's face was solemn: "I don't know when the guest will show up. Maybe tomorrow, maybe for a long time. I hope that after you receive this guest, you will take him to the consulate immediately, and then transfer him out of Shanghai as soon as possible. I emphasize again Once again, this guest is important to me and to you!"
"I will personally supervise this matter." Heywood said: "At the same time, my people have arrived in Chongqing. Meng, this is the beginning of our sincere cooperation!"
"It's time to cooperate sincerely." Meng Shaoyuan said calmly: "We will soon have a common enemy."
Having said this, he glanced at Bonanou: "Mr. Consul General, I strongly suggest to you that you can start destroying important documents and materials in the consulate now."
Although relations between the United States and Japan have deteriorated sharply, Bonanno does not think that a war will begin immediately.
However, he believed in the man in front of him:
Meng Shaoyuan!
This man is always able to send the most secret information at the most appropriate time.
Moreover, it can be proved every time how timely and accurate his intelligence is!
"President Roosevelt met with Director Donovan and listened carefully to his report." Heywood then said solemnly: "Your Excellency, the President believes that the outbreak of war is inevitable. However, the numbness and indifference in the United States are still there. It makes His Excellency the President feel chilled.
Americans are like this, insisting on their isolationism, and their patriotic enthusiasm will not be aroused unless a bomb really explodes in their heads. "
The words were relatively vague, but they sent a strong message to Meng Shaoyuan:
The United States needs war and the enemy needs to take action in advance!
Meng Shaoyuan stood up and walked to the map. After searching for a long time, he pointed to a place and said:
"here!"
Bonanou and Heywood looked over at the same time:
Pearl Harbor!
Bonanou and Heywood were silent.
"You are all despicable, or in other words, all politicians are despicable." Meng Shaoyuan suddenly laughed: "You know what will happen, but you remain silent because war serves politics, right?"
"It is for the victory." Heywood corrected him specifically: "For the cause of justice in the world."
"What a great excuse." Meng Shaoyuan sighed: "I envy the United States. If my country got such top-secret military intelligence, it would definitely make preparations in advance to avoid losses as much as possible, but the United States is different.
You have strong industrial strength, you can afford it, and you are fully able to bear no matter how big the loss is. As long as Japan dares to fire the first shot, it is equivalent to waking up a giant who is pretending to sleep! "
The giant pretending to sleep!
Not a sleeping giant!
Heywood found this description very interesting: "Meng, I will also report these words to the director and the president. Great excuse? Yes, this is a great excuse. Meng, I am more and more interested in our future cooperation." Looking forward to it.”
"I'm looking forward to it too." Meng Shaoyuan stood up and said, "For this great excuse of ours!"
