"Captain, this Qiao Mazi is really good at making money!" Under the fruit tree in the backyard of the military camp, Tang Cheng was lying on a bamboo recliner with a leisurely expression. Lao Fu sat next to him with an account book and whispered. Report the results of this operation to Tangcheng. "Let's not talk about those casinos and opium dens. The arms and opium we didn't confiscate are worth a lot of money!" Lao Fu now seems to be a veteran in stealing money, and he knows what he should report to Tangcheng first at this moment.
Tang Cheng, who was sitting on the recliner, did not look at the account book in Lao Fu's hand. He just nodded lightly at Lao Fu and signaled him to continue. When Lao Fu saw this, he didn't waste any time, he just opened his mouth and continued talking. "We have already caught almost all of Qiao Mazi's men, and the ones that slipped through the net are only a few small miscellaneous fish, which cannot cause any big trouble! According to Qiao Mazi's accountant's confession, Qiao Mazi is very cunning and does not trust others easily. , so he doesn’t know whether Qiao Mazi has hidden money secretly.”
"But our people have found an outer room in the city where Qiao Mazi was kept outside. Our people are currently searching the residence in that outer room. I believe that news will come back soon." Tangcheng arrested Qiao. Mazi's gang has two purposes, one is to improve public security in the market, and the other is to take a fancy to the arms and tobacco in Qiao Mazi's hands. As one of Tang Cheng's confidants, how could Lao Fu not know this, so in his opinion, Qiao Mazi's concubine was also considered one of the key figures.
At this time, Tang Cheng gently shook his head, "Forget it! The outer room where Qiao Mazi was kept in the city was probably forced to do so. Just tell our people that it's okay to find things, just don't make it difficult for that woman." No matter what kind of woman Qiao Mazi's wife is, Tang Cheng has no intention of dealing with a woman specifically. What's more, a comprehensive cleanup of the city is about to begin, and Tangcheng doesn't have much time to focus on these trivial matters.
Lao Fu naturally agreed to what Tang Cheng told him immediately. After reporting the results of this operation to Tang Cheng, Lao Fu hurriedly left with the account books. When Tang Cheng was relaxing in the backyard of the military camp, he didn't know that in the conference room of the military command headquarters, some people were discussing the affairs of Qiao Mazi's gang with the action report that Zhang Jianghe had handed over to the military command headquarters. Qiao Mazi's gang was destroyed so quickly that the military command headquarters didn't react at all.
Zhang Jianghe submitted the action plan in the morning, and Tang Cheng led people to arrest Qiao Mazi in the afternoon. This kind of action execution was praised by the bureau chief who presided over the meeting. "Have you read the action report sent by Zhang Jianghe? How is it? Do you have anything to say?" The bureau chief sitting at the head looked around everyone while talking, but everyone he saw was , they just remained silent and had no intention of speaking.
No one spoke, but the bureau chief did not want to let these people go easily, "Zhang Jianghe's search team is under the military command. I know that some of you have been saying strange things behind your back, feeling that Zhang Jianghe is missing an arm. , you should stay in the logistics department honestly. If you want to be in the spotlight, you can, but do you have the results to take action? Don’t you know that Qiao Mazi’s gang has made Chengnan a mess? But who of you wants to deal with this? Is Qiao pockmarked?"
"Zhang Jianghe did it. I only talked to him for a day, and all Qiao Mazi's gang had been arrested. This kind of execution ability is the work attitude our military commander needs!" When he said this, the bureau leader suddenly paused. As he spoke, he looked around at everyone with a sharp look. "If I hear you gossiping about Zhang Jianghe again in the future, I will transfer you to the front line without any hesitation!"
When the bureau leader said these words, everyone in the conference room couldn't help but feel shocked. They finally understood that Zhang Jiang and his backer in the army were actually the bureau leader. Some of them couldn't help but began to scold Zhang Jianghe secretly in their hearts, saying that since you have already relied on the bureau, you should have spoken out earlier! If only I had known that your backer was the boss, a fool would have said trivial things about you behind your back!
It is said that the rules of the military command family are strict, but there is no airtight wall in the world, so not long after the meeting at the military command headquarters ended, what the bureau chief said in the conference room was quietly passed to Zhang Jianghe. "Old Zhang, brother, I really admire you! I didn't expect that the bureau chief would really speak for you!" The man who sent the message to Zhang Jianghe was also an old man from the military. He was an old acquaintance of Zhang Jianghe. When they were at the headquarters of the military, the two of them had met each other before. There has never been any grudge between them.
"Lao Ma, look what you said! We are old acquaintances, and you don't know what kind of person I am!" Although he and Lao Ma are old acquaintances, Zhang Jianghe is still a little uncomfortable with Lao Ma's enthusiasm. "Our bureau chief is a person who misses old friendships. He defends me like this just because I am an old man in the army." Zhang Jianghe didn't want to be seen as having followed the bureau's path, so he stood up to me in front of the old horse. In front of him, he patiently explained.
"Haha, you are dishonest!" Lao Ma pointed at Zhang Jianghe and shook his head. "I originally thought that you, Zhang Jianghe, were an honest person, but I didn't expect that you had also changed and become dishonest!" Lao Ma was just joking. Zhang Jianghe naturally couldn't say much, but Lao Ma followed suit. Zhang Jianghe was an old acquaintance, but he didn't want to let Zhang Jianghe go, so he deliberately lowered his voice and continued to speak to Zhang Jianghe. "Old Zhang, please tell me carefully, how did you come up with the idea of rectifying Qiao Mazi?"
Zhang Jianghe just glanced at each other sideways when he heard this. Seeing that Lao Ma continued to tease him, Zhang Jianghe said helplessly. "I have been making preparations for rectifying the public security environment in the city for a long time. Only when the market environment stabilizes will the Japanese and puppet spies lurking in the city have no chance to take advantage of it. My original intention in rectifying the Qiao Mazi gang is for the sake of our military commander. ." The reason given by Zhang Jianghe seemed to make no sense at first, but after careful analysis, Lao Ma found that what Zhang Jianghe said seemed to make sense.
"The public security in the city is in chaos, and the Japanese and puppet spies outside have the opportunity to lurk into the city. My people have found several suspicious letters from Qiao Mazi's residence. I now have reason to believe that behind Qiao Mazi's back Maybe there is support from the Japanese." After hearing Zhang Jianghe mention the Japanese, Lao Ma's expression suddenly solidified. Although Lao Ma belongs to the logistics department at the military command headquarters, he also knows that as long as it involves the Japanese, it is definitely not a big deal.
Being wise to protect himself, Lao Ma immediately changed the subject and no longer asked about Qiao Mazi's affairs, but just chatted with Zhang Jiang and nonsense. Zhang Jianghe knew what was going on with Lao Ma's changes, but he didn't say anything to expose or deal with it. However, what Zhang Jianghe just said was not nonsense. Lao Fu's team members actually found several secret compartments in Qiao Mazi's residence. The letter Zhang Jianghe mentioned was found from one of the secret compartments. of.
Qiao Mazi was just a gangster in the city. If Zhang Jianghe had reported to the military headquarters before taking action that Qiao Mazi had colluded with the Japanese, no one would have believed it. But now that we have those letters, everything is easy to talk about. Zhang Jianghe is going to report to the military command headquarters after Qiao Mazi confesses. When Tang Cheng found out about those letters, it was already the next morning, "Uncle, do you think this Qiao Mazi is stupid! If it were anyone else, he would never keep those letters. This is because he is not afraid of death!"
Tang Cheng did not participate in the interrogation of Qiao Mazi. After asking about the surveillance situation of Zhao Dashan's team, Tang Cheng went to find Zhang Jianghe. "Uncle, Buzhuang has identified several suspicious targets. The target I discovered before has not moved in the past two days, but I have a hunch that the situation is not what we expected." After joking for a while, Tang Cheng finally Turning to the topic, Zhang Jianghe also straightened his expression. He vaguely heard what Tang Cheng meant.
"You mean to strike first and gain the upper hand!" Zhang Jianghe was indeed the person who understood Tang Cheng's style of behavior best, and he immediately judged Tang Cheng's thoughts. Seeing that Tang Cheng nodded towards him, Zhang Jianghe frowned slightly, "Have you ever thought about fishing for a big fish with a long-term goal? Since we already know and monitor that cloth shop, their every move, It's all within our control, and whether we arrest people now will not actually affect subsequent actions."
Zhang Jianghe's words were not to persuade Tang Cheng to change his mind. He just wanted to find out whether Tang Cheng had any backup plans. Tang Cheng raised his eyebrows when he heard this, and immediately replied, "Uncle, my thoughts are not what you think! What happened to Qiao Mazi is just the beginning of rectifying the market environment. We will definitely indispensable actions like this in the future. But you If we carefully calculate how many manpower our search team has available to manage the market and monitor Japanese spies for a long time, we still can't do both."
Tang Cheng's words were very direct. Zhang Jianghe couldn't find a suitable reason to continue to persuade Tang Cheng. "When I come back from Shanghai this time, I don't plan to go out again, so I must have a suitable reason to stay in Chongqing." Tang Cheng smiled slightly and expressed his thoughts to Zhang Jiang and Qiu. "I don't want to get promoted or make a fortune, I just want to do something for Chongqing. After all, our family members are all in Chongqing."
"I think we should continue to do things as before. If we find a Japanese spy, we will arrest him immediately. It is the matter of the military command headquarters to take a long-term approach to catch big fish. After all, we still have to take into account the responsibility of market stability. This is basically You can't tell people to do things in their own way. There are always a number of Japanese and puppet spies lurking in the city. If you catch one, there will be one less. There will always be a day when they catch them all, because they can't afford it."
