Before the excitement of the New Year had dissipated, Tangcheng received news from Kunming one after another. Mr. Ma and professors in Kunming sent telegrams, and a large number of unemployed soldiers in Kunming began to gather. There is also news from India that the student soldiers flown to India last year are almost fully trained. After analyzing these latest news, Tangcheng concluded that the Burmese counterattack led by the United States and Britain is about to begin. Like Tang Cheng, Hans also felt that the time for Myanmar's counterattack was approaching, but he didn't know whether the American and British troops would retreat without fighting this time.
After the disappearance of the secret code expert, Tang Cheng never went to the military headquarters again, and the bureau chief did not inquire about Xuan Niao's case. Tang Cheng completely let go. He now stays at home in the morning, either playing with his family or hiding in the backyard study with Hans, perfecting their plan. After lunch, Tang Cheng would lead a team of men around the city. If they couldn't find any lurking Japanese and puppet agents, they would look for black market dealers.
Days passed like this day by day, and now that news of the overseas training camp finally arrived, Tang Cheng resumed his previous life of patrolling the city all day long. The current situation in Chongqing looks pretty good. Wuhan Special High School, which has failed many times, has stopped sending sleeper agents to Chongqing because they found that no matter how many sleeper agents they sent, they could not stay in Chongqing for a long time. Without the Japanese and puppet spies, the systematic lottery in Tangcheng would be impossible to talk about, but he liked the leisurely life now.
Early that morning, Tang Cheng, who had just had breakfast, was preparing to go to work when a deputy commander of the garrison came to his door. The people in the garrison have a good relationship with Tangcheng, but this is the first time they suddenly come looking for them like this. "Brother, we are going to get rich this time!" The deputy leader of the garrison, surnamed Huang, approached Tang Cheng with a mysterious look and whispered. Tang Cheng was stunned when he heard this, but he immediately wanted to politely refuse the other party, because these guys in the garrison would do anything for money, and Tang Cheng was worried that the other party would cause trouble again this time.
Deputy Captain Huang was only talking to Tang Cheng and did not notice the alienation in Tang Cheng's expression. He just explained his purpose to Tang Cheng. "The news we just received here is that a batch of American equipment is coming to Chongqing from Kunming. Along with this batch of things, there are also a lot of jade ores and gold. It is said that this batch of things seems to be related to the Central Unification Committee. Why? Like? Are you interested in joining forces with us?" Deputy Captain Huang's words made Tang Cheng puzzled. He thought it was such a good thing, why did he have to join it?
The hesitation in Tang Cheng's expression was noticed by Deputy Captain Huang, who immediately reacted and continued to speak to Tang Cheng. "Brother, please don't be angry. Listen carefully to what I have to say. Although we have the name of a garrison regiment here, you also know that our garrison regiment is just an empty frame. It is difficult to recruit even a real force that can fight. Your action team is different, almost all of them are ruthless fighters who have actually seen blood, and this is one of them."
"The second reason is that you don't deal with the Central Government. This is already known to many people, so even if something goes wrong later on, you will never betray us to the Central Government." Deputy Captain Huang After listening to these two reasons, Tang Cheng muttered in his heart, thinking that you guys have plotted against me. Although he was impatient in his heart, Tang Cheng did not show it in his expression. He just lowered his head and remained silent pretending to be thoughtful. He seemed to be thinking about it secretly, but in fact he was calculating the pros and cons.
Deputy Commander Huang was asking for help, so his soldiers did not urge Tang Cheng. He just lit a cigarette and waited for Tang Cheng to make a decision. Deputy Captain Huang had only half smoked his cigarette when Tang Cheng had already raised his head and looked at him, "It's not that what you said can't be done, but let's agree first that the action must be directed by me. And before taking action, you All relevant intelligence must be provided, and I need to formulate an action plan first." How could Tang Cheng, who was worried about being dragged down by the other party, hand over the operational command to the other party.
The guys in the garrison had obviously thought of this. As soon as Tang Cheng finished speaking, Deputy Commander Huang had already nodded in agreement. Deputy Commander Huang's willingness to agree made Tang Cheng feel a little uneasy, so instead of immediately agreeing to go to the garrison station to discuss the matter, he made an appointment the next afternoon. After sending off Deputy Commander Huang, Tang Cheng immediately returned to the military camp and informed Zhang Jianghe what Deputy Commander Huang had said.
The military commander has already known the details of these people in the garrison. As a veteran military commander, how could Zhang Jianghe not know this? Knowing that the garrison were all guys who wanted money rather than their lives, Zhang Jianghe would not find it strange after listening to Tang Cheng's account. What Zhang Jianghe was interested in at the moment was that the thing the garrison was eyeing was actually related to Zhongtong. "I don't think what Vice Captain Huang said is false. I know these people. As long as they can get money, they will definitely be very careful."
Tang Cheng's attribution to the garrison made Zhang Jianghe chuckle. The local garrison was famous, and all of them were good at making money! "What do you want to do about what they said?" After hearing what Tang Cheng said, Zhang Jianghe, instead of expressing his position immediately, asked about Tang Cheng's decision. "Let me remind you first, you must be careful when it comes to matters related to Zhongtong! If you don't deal with Zhongtong, many people in the city know it, and Zhongtong also knows it."
"If you decide to participate in this matter, you must first think of countermeasures! Once things happen again, don't think that the defense team can help you take the blame! In addition, if you don't deal with the Central Command, it will be easy for you to People are thinking of you!" Zhang Jianghe's words were very objective, and this was also the main reason why Tang Cheng had been hesitant. Moreover, Zhang Jianghe still had something to say, and many people knew about the relationship between Tang Cheng and the garrison. Therefore, as long as the garrison was exposed, Tang Cheng would be inseparable.
After Tang Cheng thought about it for a while, he said to Zhang Jianghe, "I'm afraid I can't get rid of this matter whether I participate in it or not! But it's not without a chance. As long as the plan is proper and the countermeasures are thought out in advance, even if the Central Unification Suspicion, they have no evidence. If there is no evidence, whoever has the loudest voice is not justified. Although those guys in the garrison are not very good, they have backers behind them. Even if the Zhongtong side comes to trouble me, that's not the case. If I need evidence to convince the bureau chief, I can still bite them to death and say that they are deliberately retaliating against me."
Zhang Jianghe sighed softly when he heard this, "You can't do this! What kind of unit is the Zhongtong? If the military commander didn't have a bureau seat, the Zhongtong might have climbed on top of the military commander to shit! They don't have to tell you at all. The truth is, as long as they suspect someone, they can arrest them first without any evidence! You have had conflicts with the Central Committee several times before. If someone hadn't come forward, do you really think they can't do anything to you?" Zhang Jianghe said , causing Tang Cheng to fall into silence. It seems that he still took the problem too lightly!
After a moment of silence, Tang Cheng, who had regained his composure, spoke up, "I have a case on hand that needs to be investigated. You can use this case to pick me out first. If the investigation speed of the case overlaps with this matter, the speed of investigation will Even if the president doubts me, they have no chance to cause trouble for me." The content of Tang Cheng's words had already shown his attitude. Zhang Jiang and Wen Yan just sighed softly and did not continue to stop or persuade Tang Cheng.
On the afternoon of the next day, in the appointed private room of the teahouse, Tang Cheng and the senior officials of the garrison sat together and discussed the action plan and advance arrangements in a low voice. The result of the discussion was similar to Tang Cheng's previous estimate, and the garrison group completely left the matter to Tang Cheng. Not only were they responsible for the weapons, ammunition and related intelligence required for this operation, but they also handed over the on-site command to Tangcheng. Counting the manpower Tang Cheng can draw from the action team, the number of people Tang Cheng can command in this operation has exceeded 30.
Among the more than 30 people directly involved in the operation, there were 16 veterans from the garrison. The remaining manpower could only be two capture teams trained by Tang Cheng himself. This matter involved too much, so Tang Cheng did not dare to mobilize Lao Fu and the others to participate. After much deliberation, the only people Tang Cheng could use now were the arresting team's manpower. According to the information provided by the garrison, the items coming from Kunming were apparently escorted by caravans, but they were actually escorted by plainclothes agents of the Central Government.
Tang Cheng was well aware of Zhongtong's plainclothes capabilities. In the previous battles, Tang Cheng had frequently taken advantage of Zhongtong's men. One day later, the garrison began to adjust the guards at the farm outside the city. According to the protection of Tangcheng, the manpower involved in the interception must be quietly transferred out of the city. As for the arresting team of the action team, they have been training in isolation outside the city, and no one paid attention to them at all.
In order to prevent any oversights, Tang Cheng took Lao Fu and the others around the city for two consecutive days until Tang Cheng used his system skills to locate two suspicious targets in the east of the city. Finding a suspicious target worth monitoring and tracking meant busy work and a large bounty. As follow-up work was carried out, Tang Cheng immediately reported the situation to Zhang Jianghe. Zhang Jianghe naturally would not harm Tangcheng's affairs. He also reported the situation to the bureau chief, who was overjoyed.
The action team's ability to find needles in a haystack has long been taught to the bureau chief. Knowing that Tang Cheng has begun to monitor and track targets, the bureau chief knew that the two targets targeted by Tang Cheng were inseparable. Zhang Jianghe took the opportunity to suggest to the bureau chief that he transfer manpower from the two offices to participate in surveillance and tracking. After all, the manpower on the action team was always insufficient. Zhang Jianghe's suggestion seemed to be directed towards the military command headquarters, but in fact it was helping Tangcheng. These two personnel involved in the operation were Tangcheng's best witnesses.
