"I heard that you had a quarrel with someone from Zhongtong?" Half an hour later, Tang Cheng returned to the hotel in the city when he received a call from Zhang Jianghe from the military camp. After the call was connected, Zhang Jianghe immediately asked, What happened in the Chengnan teahouse before. Tang Cheng, who was on the phone, did not immediately answer Zhang Jianghe's inquiry. Instead, he lamented the speed at which the news spread. How come even Zhang Jianghe, who was sitting in the military camp, knew what had happened before.
"Haha, the person who gave you the news must have heard what others said, right?" After adjusting his mood, Tang Cheng had no intention of hiding it from Zhang Jianghe, so he simply explained the whole story. "I went to the south of the city to collect clues. You also know that places like the south of the city have always been a place where Japanese and puppet spies like to hide. I didn't expect that the Central Command happened to be taking action in the south of the city today, and I was right where they were arresting people. At the scene, I was slightly targeted.”
"The situation at that time cannot actually be regarded as a quarrel, because from the beginning to the end, I only said four words!" Tang Cheng explained the incident clearly to Zhang Jianghe on the phone. When Zhang Jianghe on the other end of the phone learned that Tang Cheng only said "it's none of your business", he couldn't help laughing. Tang Cheng on the other side of the phone was also infected by Zhang Jianghe's laughter and laughed a few times too.
"Okay! I get it! If the bureau boss calls you later, just say it! Don't say you didn't scold them, even if you did scold them, it's not a big deal." With a hidden identity Zhang Jianghe and Zhongtong are natural rivals, so Zhang Jianghe didn't pay attention to what happened before. He called because he was worried that he didn't know the inside story. Since Tang Cheng said it was okay, Zhang Jianghe just pretended that he didn't know anything.
Tang Cheng had just hung up Zhang Jianghe's call when the bureau chief called in. Like Zhang Jianghe, the bureau chief wanted to ask about Tang Cheng's previous conflict with Zhongtong's plainclothes officers. Feeling helpless, Tang Cheng could only repeat what he had said to Zhang Jianghe before on the phone. The reaction of the bureau chief was completely opposite to that of Zhang Jianghe. While he said that the people in Zhongtong were of poor moral character, he also said that Tangcheng was too careful in doing things and did not have the spirit that young people should have.
"Remember this, if you encounter something like this in the future, please call me back first! What's going on with these incomprehensible words? People who don't know will think that our military commanders only use harsh words. , but there is no blood in him!" The bureau chief's words made Tang Cheng look stunned. How could he have heard that the bureau chief's words meant that he wanted him to cause trouble! "As long as you don't use knives or guns, and you don't kill anyone, I'll let you go from now on!"
The bureau chief said something meaningless and hung up the phone. When Tang Cheng learned later that the bureau chief was reprimanded by the chairman again at the South Bank Villa, he finally understood why the bureau chief said on the phone Say something like that. "It's not just because of the assassination case of the chairman of the committee! People from the second branch have been secretly investigating along the line of heavy machine guns. The director went to the South Bank Villa just to report the matter! I thought it must have been found by the military. The chairman himself has no choice but to vent his anger on the bureau chief!"
The news told by Zhang Jianghe made Tang Cheng secretly happy. He had made so many arrangements in the dark emperor, and now it finally had some effect. "Uncle, do you think the Chairman himself knows who is colluding with the Japanese behind his back? He dared to assassinate him in Chongqing. How could it be possible if there was no internal response? That person has been in this position for so many years. I If you don’t believe it, that person is just a good man and a believer who doesn’t know anything!” What Tang Cheng said at this moment made Zhang Jianghe frown secretly, especially when the words “good man and believer” appeared in Tang Cheng’s words, Zhang Jianghe even raised his hand and knocked. Tangcheng was shocked.
"You kid, you are becoming more and more unreasonable now! With your mouth, you dare to say anything now!" Zhang Jianghe gave Tang Cheng a hard blow, which was not enough. He wanted to continue knocking, but Tang Cheng was Dodge. "Yo! You dare to hide! Come here and let me knock again!" Zhang Jianghe's reluctance made Tang Cheng speechless. He knew in his heart that you were going to knock me on the head. Only a fool would get closer. It was in vain. Another hit! The uncle and nephew laughed and joked for a while, and suddenly there was a knock on the office door from outside. The person who knocked on the door was Lao Fu.
Lao Fu came to Tang Cheng to report on their monitoring of the drug black market. Because of a clue reported by the garrison, Tang Cheng planned to target drug dealers in the city. "Captain, the person you want us to keep an eye on made moves an hour ago!" In front of Zhang Jianghe, Lao Fu told all the news he had just received, without any attempt to hide it from Zhang Jiang. and meaning. "Our people followed Fatty Qi all the way, and found out that the person they came into contact with was a British man with a big nose."
Tang Cheng was not surprised by the content of Lao Fu's report. Instead, he immediately clapped his hands and chuckled, "I just felt something was wrong with the surname Qi. I bet this guy got a chance to get access to the big-nosed British channel! What can I say?" The black market prices of medicines here fluctuate so much. This is because the British Big Nose is planning to take over the black market!" Zhang Jianghe didn't know much about the operation of the black market, so he didn't react to Tang Cheng's words and just said quietly listen.
Lao Fu reacted immediately, and then subconsciously lowered his voice and said, "Captain, why don't we just tie up that big British nose, stuff it into a sack while it's dark, and then throw it into the bag? No one knows. We did it!" As if to accentuate his tone, when Lao Fu said these words, he waved his right hand downwards heavily, as if he was waving a machete to chop things. When Tang Cheng heard this, he just glanced at Lao Fu speechlessly, wondering what kind of idea you had.
Lao Fu, who had done bad things with good intentions, was glared at by Tang Cheng, and immediately shrank his neck and stopped talking. Looking at Zhang Jianghe again, he was already grinning like a Maitreya Buddha. "Fat Qi continues to stare, it's best to find the place where he hoards medicines! The British big nose who comes into contact with him is not anxious yet. I guess the medicines provided by the British to Fatty Qi come in via the Burma Highway. That line , we can’t touch it, it will be big trouble if we touch it!”
Although Lao Fu said he was naughty, his reaction was dissatisfied. He could tell immediately that Tang Cheng's last words were specifically meant to remind him. After Lao Fu left, Tang Cheng immediately changed his expression, "Uncle, I have always felt that something was wrong with Fatty Qi. Now it seems that this guy may have been helping the British!" Tang Cheng's words made Zhang Jianghe listen. I was confused. After the opening of the Burma Highway, the relationship between the government and the British had been very close, but Tang Cheng's words didn't sound right.
"When I was in Shanghai, I also met people from the British intelligence service. These big noses have always been secretly connected with the Japanese! As you know, I have a foreign friend in Shanghai. Unfortunately, my foreign friend is a German People. The Germans are naturally rivals of the British, so from my German friend, I also learned about a lot of dirty things among foreign intelligence officers in the Shanghai Concession. The British seem to have a good relationship with us, but in fact they It’s hedging his bets, just for profit.”
"The last time I went to Shanghai, I helped my German friend secretly deal with a British businessman. When I was cleaning up the residence, I actually found a lot of confidential documents in the darkroom, including a document from the British intelligence agency. Chinese personnel, in the Shanghai Concession, helped the Special High School to search for information on underground party and military commanders." What Tang Cheng said now was only half-truths and half-falsies that he decided to reveal to Zhang Jianghe after careful consideration.
Sure enough, Zhang Jianghe reacted immediately to his words. Tang Cheng could see clearly from the corner of his eye that Zhang Jianghe's upper body was already tense at this moment. Tang Cheng, who was familiar with Zhang Jianghe, knew that this was a harbinger of Zhang Jianghe's hidden anger. Seeing that Zhang Jianghe's face had darkened, Tang Cheng continued. "The British pay attention to interests. As long as it does not harm their own interests, they dare to reveal the secrets of their allies to their opponents. As long as they can get benefits in exchange, they can sell them all at a clear price."
"The Japanese and puppet spies lurking in Chongqing have been reduced to pieces by us. Didn't you see that there have been a lot less bombings by Japanese planes these days! There is no ground guidance in the city, and their planes are bombing It's just a waste of effort! And I feel that the last time the chairman of the committee was attacked was just a sign of their haste to jump over the wall! I'm worried that the Japanese are trying to be clever. They know that if they send people in again, they can only give us their heads in vain. , so I want to use British channels to find out about the situation in the city."
What Tang Cheng said was not nonsense. In the later generations of the Internet, many so-called secret documents declassified after the war mentioned that during World War II, many foreigners were in the Kuomintang-controlled areas to help Japanese intelligence agencies find out information. Perhaps in their eyes, it is just a business or a short-term job, but in the hearts of the Chinese, this is betrayal and an enemy. Zhang Jianghe didn't speak immediately, but looked immersed in thought. Tang Cheng didn't speak either, just looked at Zhang Jianghe quietly.
After a while, Zhang Jianghe spoke, "You can't attack the British man in the city without definite evidence! Once someone discovers it, it will be a diplomatic incident and the government will be very passive. As for what you just said What I said is only known to the two of us. Otherwise, once something happens to the Englishman, everyone will immediately think that you did it. By then, even if the bureau wants to protect you, someone will probably add insult to injury. "
