Half a month later, American military cans and cigarettes appeared one after another in the black market in Chongqing. The military command headquarters infiltrated plainclothes in the black market, and even found military drugs here. As the war in Myanmar started again, the Central Committee's idea of finding the lost supplies by controlling the black market has failed, because black market dealers who can obtain military supplies at this time generally have strong backers. Fortunately, the garrison did not get carried away. The materials they had hidden were still safely hidden in the farm outside the city.
The originally chaotic situation in the city seemed to calm down immediately, but Tang Cheng realized that this was just an illusion. Also aware that something was wrong were veteran police officers such as Lao Fu and Zhao Dashan. After discussing with them, Tangcheng decided to reduce the external operations of the action team from now on. If it is not necessary, it is best for the members of the action team to stay in the military camp. Facts have proved that Tang Cheng's premonition was accurate. Tang Cheng and Zhang Jianghe soon received a call to go to the military command headquarters for a meeting.
Tang Cheng was not a member of the Military Command Headquarters and did not have to attend the meetings of the Military Command Headquarters. However, this was the bureau's wish and Tang Cheng naturally did not dare to disobey. When Tang Cheng followed Zhang Jianghe to the Military Command Headquarters, he suddenly discovered that people from other departments in the Military Command Headquarters were called to the meeting by the bureau chief. Tang Cheng originally thought that this was an internal meeting of the military commander, but when the meeting started, Tang Cheng found that his idea was wrong.
Because Zhongtong's operatives were continuously attacked in the city, Juntong planned to strengthen personnel management. Tang Cheng played the role of passerby very well, hiding in a corner and saying nothing during the entire meeting. After the meeting, Tang Cheng and Zhang Jianghe were called to his office by the bureau chief. "Calling you here is another matter!" There was no change in the bureau chief's expression, but Tang Cheng could tell something was wrong from the bureau chief's tone.
As the bureau chief spoke, he picked up a document on the table and handed it to Zhang Jianghe, "This is some information collected by the Second Division during this period. Most of the military supplies that have appeared on the black market recently are related to this person named Zhao. . Behind the person named Zhao is a senior member of the Military and Political Ministry. We can’t touch the people from the Military and Political Ministry, but we must deal with this person named Zhao." While the bureau chief was talking, Zhang Jianghe had already read through the book. A few pages of information were handed to Tang Cheng.
Tang Cheng took the information handed over by Zhang Jianghe, and the first thing he saw was the photo of the person named Zhao. Fortunately, he was not someone he knew. The information collected by the second office is actually very simple. This guy named Zhao Haisheng is a follower of a military boss who traveled south from Wuhan to Chongqing. He somehow became a black marketeer. Relying on the protection of this military boss, Zhao Haisheng gradually began to emerge in the Chongqing black market, and now he has begun to resell US and British military aid supplies.
The bureau chief wanted to deal with Zhao Haisheng. Tang Cheng guessed that on the one hand, it was for the materials and property in Zhao Haisheng's hands, and on the other hand, it might be for the military boss behind Zhao Haisheng. In front of the bureau leader, Tang Cheng did not express his guess. He just looked at the information carefully and listened to the conversation between the bureau leader and Zhang Jianghe. Naturally, Zhang Jianghe would not object to the task assigned by the bureau. He was just investigating a black marketeer with some background, which was not a difficult task.
Tang Cheng also quickly read through the information in his hand. Tang Chao obviously had his own understanding of this task. Seeing the confusion in Tang Cheng's expression, the director immediately looked at Tang Cheng and said, "This Zhao Haisheng must be captured. As for the backers behind him, we can't touch it. Other than that, You don’t need to think about it. If anyone blocks your actions, they will be dealt with!" The bureau chief said this, which was regarded as an endorsement for Tang Cheng, and the latter no longer struggled with the doubts in his heart.
After all, Zhao Haisheng is just a black marketeer. Although he has a backer, as long as he is targeted by Tang Cheng and others, there is absolutely no possibility of escaping. In just two days, the action team conducted comprehensive surveillance and tracking of Zhao Haisheng, and through surveillance and tracking of the goods, Zhao Haisheng's two secret warehouses in the city and outside the city were locked. Tang Cheng had a good understanding of the bureau's true intention in arranging this task, so the main focus of the action team was on Zhao Haisheng's secret warehouse.
On the morning of the third day, Tang Cheng went to the bureau's office with the investigation results. The latter was so confused that he did not expect that Tang Cheng would move so quickly. "It has now been locked and confirmed that Zhao Haisheng has a secret warehouse in the city and one outside the city! Although we have not yet confirmed what is in the warehouse, based on the analysis of the frequency of entry and exit of the warehouse in the past two days, the one outside the city The warehouse should be related to the military supplies that appeared on the black market. At the same time, we also accidentally discovered that this Zhao Haisheng is closely related to the military."
Tangcheng has confirmed two secret warehouses, but has not taken action. The main reason is because of the contacts between Zhao Haisheng and the military. Tangcheng is worried that the military supplies and military equipment of the national army will appear in those two warehouses. . Tangcheng is not afraid of trouble, but it is best not to get involved in unnecessary trouble. The director's reaction was not slow and he immediately realized that Tang Cheng's last sentence was the key point. After Tang Cheng sold out his considerations, the bureau leader also frowned slightly, secretly thinking about countermeasures.
After a while, the bureau chief spoke, "Ignore everything else, we are only targeting Zhao Haisheng now! Once it is confirmed that there are black market US and British military aid materials in his two warehouses, you will arrest him directly!" The attitude of the bureau chief has been made clear, and naturally there are also objections from the United States and Britain in Tangcheng. That night, Tang Cheng personally took action and led members of the logistics team to sneak into Zhao Haisheng's two secret warehouses to check the types of goods in the warehouses.
Consistent with Tang Cheng's prediction in advance, Zhao Haisheng not only stocked a large amount of in-demand supplies in the secret warehouse outside the city, but also had military supplies for the national army. The American and British military aid supplies that the bureau is concerned about are also available here, but the quantity is not large. As for Zhao Haisheng's warehouse in the city, most of it contained grain and medicine. This made Tang Cheng suddenly realize that Zhao Haisheng might have a secret warehouse that had not been discovered. But Tang Cheng did not hesitate, and immediately led his team members to start arresting people.
That night, Tang Cheng led people to break into Zhao Haisheng's residence and not only arrested Zhao Haisheng, but also took away Zhao Haisheng's wife and two children. "Boss Zhao, catching you is an unknown task from above. We have no grievances against you, we are just small people who follow orders!" Zhao Haisheng, who was brought back to the military aid, was not put into the interrogation room. Tang Cheng asked about his location. , also in his own office. Especially if Zhao Haisheng, who was sitting in the chair, turned his head, he could see his family standing in the corridor outside the office.
"Before I formally question you, I must tell you clearly that the reason for arresting you is those American and British military aid supplies! Therefore, you must think carefully about what you should answer when I formally question you later!" Tangcheng He looked at Zhao Haisheng with a calm face, but the other person's expression was full of fear, especially after he turned around and saw his family. Zhao Haisheng's performance was a bit unbearable. Tang Cheng gave him enough time to think, hoping that the other party would choose a wise attitude.
Because of Tang Cheng's previous preparations, the interrogation process of Zhao Haisheng went extremely smoothly, and there was no situation that Tang Cheng was worried about. After learning from Zhao Haisheng that the goods were located in another secret warehouse outside the city, Tangcheng immediately sent people to check it out. An hour later, news came back that Lao Fu and others who dared to go outside the city had indeed found the secret warehouse and had confirmed the goods in the warehouse. Because of Zhao Haisheng's cooperation, Tang Cheng also gave the other party convenience, allowing Zhao Haisheng to stay with his family.
As soon as he went to work the next day, Tang Cheng went directly to the military headquarters. Tang Cheng didn't care at all how much American and British military aid supplies were stored in the warehouse outside the city, because he knew that these things would not fall into his hands in the end. . As Tangcheng expected, Zhao Haisheng and his family were only temporarily detained in the military camp for two days before they were picked up by a military vehicle. As for Zhao Haisheng's three warehouses, they have all been taken over by the military command headquarters. In the end, the action team only got some cigarettes and canned candies.
It was the action team that contributed the effort, but it was the military command headquarters that took the lion's share in the end. Tang Cheng didn't care about this. When asked about it by the director, Tang Cheng also said that the action team would be more effective if they acted in a low-key manner. The bureau chief didn't know that that night, Zhao Haisheng not only revealed another secret warehouse he had outside the city, but also told Tangcheng a piece of news. Many black market dealers in the city have secret warehouses outside the city. Unfortunately, Zhao Haisheng knows several of them, and the owners of those secret warehouses are Zhao Haisheng's business rivals.
In the next two nights, Tang Cheng personally took action and led the members of the arrest team to continuously control the warehouses outside the city. Thanks to the previous operations of the garrison, after Tang Cheng took control of these secret warehouses, he hid all the materials in the warehouses in the farms outside the city. Tang Cheng did this without hiding it from Zhang Jianghe, especially because he wanted to secretly sell the stolen black market materials to underground party organizations through Zhang Jianghe. Tang Cheng's gangsterism made the action team full of momentum. After all, each of them had a share in the extravagant wealth.
Zhang Jianghe's reaction did not disappoint Tangcheng's expectations. When he learned that Tangcheng had obtained a large amount of black market materials from gangsters outside the city, Zhang Jianghe passed the news to the Chongqing underground party organization through the tavern. Soon, a man from the city who was familiar with Tang Cheng came to visit. Tang Cheng, who knew that the man was also a member of the underground party, did not talk nonsense at all. He just used a price slightly lower than the market price to buy all the black market materials from the farm outside the city. Packaged and sold to the other party.
