Courtyard No. 7, West Bridge, Yin Yang Camp,
Cryptographical Inspection Institute.
As the situation in Shanghai became increasingly tense, workers continued to work as usual on weekends when they were supposed to have a rest, which made the staff complain.
The Japanese students in the research group had the biggest opinions, but who asked them to shoulder the most important task of deciphering the code?
Before 8 o'clock in the morning, Li Si and Li Shu showed up at the research group on time and greeted several young people inside familiarly.
"Good morning."
"Everyone, hurry up and work hard."
"When the mission is completed, let's go to Dehe Tower together."
The young people looked helpless. These two stared at them and others during work every day, wishing they could follow them even to the toilet.
The problem is that technical research work is not physical work. Hard work may not necessarily lead to results. Success requires time and inspiration.
But the other party was the deputy director and spoke so politely. They couldn't say anything and could only lower their heads and stare at the information in a daze.
Within a few minutes, the research team leader Chen Shi came in with his hands in his pockets. When he saw the Li brothers, he frowned and said something sinister.
"Boy, is it so early?"
"It's not early, it's not early."
Li Si was not angry when he heard this. Instead, he showed a humble smile and poured a cup of tea for the other party while speaking. His posture was very low.
It is said that you should not hit someone with a smiling face. Chen Shi was put in a dilemma by this behavior, so he simply sat down and ignored him.
He felt that since he was already like this, people who wanted to lose face would retreat in spite of difficulties. After all, there were only a few people who were shameless. Unfortunately, he was wrong.
"Team Leader Chen, have some tea."
Li Si's smile did not change, he took a few steps forward and slowly placed the tea cup on Chen Shi's table, and explained in an unusually sincere manner.
“I hope you’ll forgive me, brother, it’s really the Japanese who are aggressive in Shanghai, and the superiors have repeatedly asked us to master the enemy’s secret messages as soon as possible.
If the mission fails, the position under my butt and the head on my neck may not be saved, so you can just treat me as a brother. "
As he spoke, he lowered his voice and mysteriously revealed a shocking news.
"Team Leader Chen should know that due to the "Songhu Armistice Agreement" between China and Japan a few years ago, the Republic of China did not have a regular army in Shanghai.
To this end, the government reorganized the 6th Military Police Regiment originally stationed in Shanghai into the 2nd Security Regiment, and reorganized the former Peking Police Brigade into the 1st Security Regiment.
These two forces are nominally local security forces, but they are equipped with cutting-edge weapons such as rifles, light and heavy machine guns, and are well-trained.
"The Romance of Fairy Wood"
Although the elite level is comparable to that of the direct Central Army, there are only two regiments after all, and their strength is very different from that of the Japanese.
Therefore, last night the Military Commission ordered all the 2nd Division's supplementary brigade stationed in Sioux City to put on security team uniforms and secretly go to the front line.
The combat mission is to protect key strategic targets such as Hongqiao Airport and defend the front line of Hangcheng Bay to prevent the Japanese from landing there.
Our Interpretation Office also received the task of cooperating with the other party, that is, to decipher the communication code of the Japanese garrison in Shanghai in the shortest possible time. "
"do not talk!"
Chen Shi stood up suddenly and pointed at Li Si with wide eyes: "This is top secret information, Lao Li, do you really want to kill us?
Don't you know that once the news leaks out, none of the people present will be able to escape, and they will all be invited to drink tea at Hong Gong Temple.
I didn't hear anything just now, and you didn't say anything either. Did you hear that? Anyone who dares to talk can just wait for the spies to come. "
After scolding Li Si, he turned around, looked at the members of the research team with different expressions, and issued a warning in a serious tone.
"Yes, team leader."
The well-informed young people understood that the situation was serious and hurriedly nodded in reply, hating someone for speaking so openly.
If the Secret Service knew about this, they would be doomed, as evidenced by the heads of spies and traitors hanging on the city gates.
The only person with a calm expression in the office was Li Shu, who looked at Chen Shi and his subordinates with disdain.
"What are you afraid of? What kind of place is our cryptographic inspection and interpretation institute? There are countless top-secret information coming and going every day.
All the document bags from Secret Service Headquarters, the Secret Service, the Intelligence Department of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Navy and the Army were marked Top Secret.
If everyone is prohibited from discussing how the work will be carried out, Team Leader Chen, everyone, please don’t scare yourself, as you won’t get into big trouble.
Besides, the institution that the leader values most, even if you give the Secret Service a hundred courages, they won’t dare to come here to arrest people. That’s what I’m saying. "
Well done,
That’s it!
Li Si was secretly happy. The task given to them by the Secret Service was to leak intelligence to the target without arousing the other party's suspicion.
This was easier said than done. His identity was sensitive and he couldn't say too much about certain things, but Li Shu didn't have such worries.
One is because Li Shu is young, and the other is that Li Shu has a cousin who is the deputy director, and he has a cousin who is the team leader, so he has a background.
No matter how eloquent he is, he will only be regarded as a stupid young man who does not know the world, and the target will definitely not be too vigilant.
Thinking of this, Li Si looked at Chen Shi openly, and the other person's face looked better indeed, looking thoughtful.
It’s done,
Mission accomplished.
Er Li looked at each other, and then wandered around the office as he did the past few days, annoying the people in the research team.
After a few hours, a few people couldn't bear it anymore and got up and walked out, not showing up again until after get off work.
Li Si and Li Shuhun didn't care. As long as they could catch the Japanese spy, it didn't matter if they were looked down upon for a few days. Anyway, they wouldn't lose a piece of meat.
at the same time.
In a private house not far from the code inspection and interpretation station, Gu Qi looked at Zuo Zhong standing next to the surveillance window and said worriedly.
"Deputy Director, is it inappropriate to tell the suspected target the intelligence of the 2nd Division's Supplementary Brigade? What if the intelligence is leaked?
At present, tens of thousands of Japanese troops have been concentrated in the urban areas of Shanghai. After learning this news, they will definitely make corresponding arrangements.
I'm worried that this will affect the military layout on the front line. If the battle in Shanghai fails because of us, it will be troublesome.
We can completely forge a piece of false information and give it to the person named Chen. Even if the Japanese intelligence agency finds out, there will be no loss. "
"Don't worry about it."
Zuo Zhong turned around and shook his head: "Japanese spies have undergone professional training, and ordinary false information cannot deceive the other party, especially if the source is suspicious.
Besides, the Japanese were very well informed. Such a big thing as the relocation of the supplementary brigade would be quickly revealed. This matter could not be hidden.
Since we can't hide it, it's better to take the initiative to release the information. Lao Gu, do you know what kind of lies are the hardest to see through? "
He asked Gu Qi a question, and soon said meaningfully: "That is nine truths and one falsehood. There are two situations that you are not clear about.
The supplementary brigade does have to support Shanghai, but there is only one regiment. Its mission is to protect the airport and has nothing to do with Hangcheng Bay.
When the Japanese find out that the regiment has indeed left the station and headed to the front line, do you think they will believe this false information?
In addition, you and I have been to Zhejiang Province, and you also know the origin of Fodingshan Temple. Why did the Japanese spies measure the hydrological data of Hangcheng Bay? "
"You mean?"
"Yes, the Japanese have long been prepared to start a war in Shanghai. When the two sides are fighting fiercely, they will launch a sneak attack from the flank of our army."
"Hiss~"
Gu Qi was shocked when he heard Zuo Zhong's answer. He was about to ask Shang Feng if he knew about it, but immediately lowered his head.
Since the deputy director said this, he must have reacted to the senior officials, so why is there no movement from the government? It is obvious that he does not take it seriously.
Yes, in a major military event, one move affects the whole body. How can one move alone change the deployment of the entire front line of troops?
Mobilizing and confusing the Japanese through false intelligence like this is the best result, and their secret service is not omnipotent.
"Okay, don't mention this again."
Zuo Zhong sighed secretly and asked with a smile on his face: "Now that the bait has been released, it depends on whether the big fish will take the bait. Have you made the arrangements?"
"The arrangements have been made. The stadium and the first park are under control within seven kilometers. I also established a blockade ten kilometers away."
When Gu Qi heard the inquiry, he slowly woke up from his pessimism and disappointment. His confidence returned to him and he nodded affirmatively.
“I sent out all the remaining personnel, seconded a group of operations section personnel, and applied for more than 30 bicycles from the general affairs department.
Make sure that our people are keeping an eye on every intersection and every street. As long as the other party dares to show up, they won't be able to run away. Don't worry. "
"It's not enough. You should also pay attention to mountainous areas."
Zuo Zhong looked at the quiet No. 7 Courtyard and thought of the loopholes in the plan: "At present, we cannot rule out the possibility that Japanese spies hide the radio station in the suburbs.
Let's do this, select a group of intelligence and operations experts, and pair them up to use telescopes on nearby mountaintops to monitor pedestrians.
If you find a suspicious person, you don't need to follow him. Just remember the person's last resting place, and then let the large troops go in and search the mountain after the person has left. "
Watch over the mountains,
How many people does this take?
Gu Qi smiled bitterly, and suddenly thought that the elite soldiers and generals of the Intelligence Department were fine in Shanghai, so he wanted to ask if he could transfer a group of them back first.
But before the words came out, a little secret agent walked into the room, saluted Zuo Zhonghe respectfully, and whispered in return.
"The report, the telegram from Peiping Station, confirms that Chen Shi from the Crypto-Interpretation Office is the former Director of Foreign Affairs of the puppet Jidong Autonomous Government.
In order to avoid making mistakes, webmaster Chen Gongshu found multiple traitors who had seen each other and conducted separate identification work, and the results were consistent. "
"Give me the message and get out."
Gu Qi's eyes lit up, he reached for the telegram from the little agent's hand, read it carefully before coming to Zuo Zhong and said excitedly.
"Deputy Director, the password is fine. It was sent by Station Master Chen himself. Chen Shi, the bastard, finally showed his fox tail.
Should we arrest him immediately? Just the fact that he served in the pseudo-Jidong regime can definitely convict him of being a traitor.
This kind of person is so greedy for life and afraid of death. As long as he enters the interrogation room and is not afraid that he will not confess, the Japanese spies who cooperate with him will not be able to escape either. "
In Gu Qi's opinion, as long as he catches Chen Shi, the case will be broken, so that the leaders and senior officials can be given an explanation, and everyone will be happy.
But he didn't expect that Zuo Zhong had heard what he said. An uncertain smile appeared on his face, and then he patted his shoulder and said leisurely.
"Don't worry, the fun has just begun~"
