Soon, Shi Senlin went to Suzhou to take up his post, and naturally Chen Bin took over as the director of the second division.
In this case, Xie Xuan will actually control the first, second and fourth places.
Before Shi Senlin left for Suzhou, he made a special trip to Xie Xuan's office.
Shi Linlin was older than Xie Xuan and had much more seniority. He was an old commander-in-chief and was a colleague of Li Junshi. When he was a spy, Xie Xuan was probably still unbuttoning his crotch pants.
When Shi Senlin was the director of the Second Division, he basically did not report to Xie Xuan.
If anything happens in the second office, you can either decide on your own or report it to Li Junshi first.
Even if he really wanted to report, Chen Bin would be asked to come over.
Shi Senlin took the initiative to come to Xie Xuan's office, which was really rare.
Shi Linlin touched his hair with the palm of his hand and said humbly: "Director Xie, you are familiar with the situation at Suzhou Station. Please give me your advice on how to carry out the work after I go there."
Shi Linlin has relatively little hair. When talking, he likes to touch the top of his head habitually, as if he is afraid that his hair will suddenly become less.
Xie Xuan muttered: "Stationmaster Shi is an old spy and my senior. How dare I give you advice? The Suzhou Station has only one task, to cooperate with the Qing Dynasty. All those who are not conducive to the Qing Xiang work must be eliminated. All those who are not conducive to the Qing Xiang work must be eliminated. All rural affairs must be resolved. As long as these two things are done well, Suzhou Station will be successful. Of course, there is one most important thing..."
Shi Linlin asked: "What's going on?"
Xie Xuan reminded: "The Secret Service is not responsible for the work of clearing the countryside, but the Secret Service must assist the work of clearing the countryside. The two will inevitably overlap in intelligence, politics, military, or other interests. How to balance the relationship between the two? You have to know what’s going on.”
During the work of clearing the countryside, the Executive Yuan, the Legislative Yuan and the Military Commission must transfer all administrative, legislative, judicial and military powers in the work area to the "clearing the countryside" committee.
It can be seen that this Qingxiang committee member is an organization with great power and its own sect.
The Secret Service Department is subordinate to the Executive Yuan, and when the time comes, the secret service work will also be subject to the arrangements of the Qingxiang Committee.
If the Suzhou Station conflicts with the Qingxiang Committee in Suzhou, things will be difficult to handle.
Shi Senlin said disapprovingly: "The Qingxiang Agency is a newly established department after all. In many aspects, it still needs the cooperation of the Secret Service. Besides, I heard that the Secretary-General of the Qingxiang Committee is Minister Li, and he will coordinate the two. relationship between them.”
He is the head of the Suzhou Station and only listens to the Secret Service. How could he listen to the Qingxiang Committee?
Besides, the person in charge of the Qingxiang Committee is most likely Li Junshi.
He felt that there could be no conflict between the two.
On March 24, 1941, Wang Mingzhao presided over the 41st meeting of the Wang Puppet Central Committee and decided to establish the "Qingxiang" Committee. Wang Mingzhao served as chairman, Zhou Hai and others served as vice-chairmen, and Li Junshi served as secretary-general to preside over practical work. .
Wang Mingzhao had high hopes for the Qingxiang work, because according to the agreement with the Japanese side, the Japanese army would not interfere in the politics and economy of the Qingxiang area. All material opportunities are removed.
After Li Junshi returned from a meeting in Nanjing, he excitedly arrived at Xie Xuan's office:
"Xie Xuan, I have secured a member spot for you on the Qingxiang Committee."
Xie Xuan immediately stood up, bowed to Li Junshi, and said sincerely: "Thank you very much, Minister. Xie will follow in the footsteps of the Minister to the death."
After the mountain city learned that the Wang Puppet had established a committee to clear the countryside and was preparing to clear the countryside, they sent a secret telegram to Xie Xuan: They would take advantage of Wang the Puppet's clearing of the countryside to cleanly and completely eliminate the New Fourth Army in the Qingxiang area.
At the same time, a ridiculous order was sent to Xie Xuan: to assist Hua Zhongyang of the Eighth Jiangsu Security Brigade of the Kuomintang to surrender to the enemy, and let him borrow Japanese and puppet equipment and military pay to attack the Communist troops.
When Xie Xuan first received this order, he thought the translator had made a mistake.
How could Shancheng give himself such an order?
Later I realized that Shancheng's actions not only reduced his own burden, but also attacked the New Fourth Army in a reasonable and legal way. It was really vicious.
After the Battle of Southern Anhui, people across the country denounced Shancheng, and Shancheng had no choice but to continue the unified resistance war.
Since the national army cannot directly conflict with the New Fourth Army, it will rely on the power of the Japanese and puppets, or even secretly support the Japanese and puppets, to jointly attack the Communist troops.
Li Junshi said: "In the future, I may have to be stationed in Nanjing, and I will have to trouble you with the work of the Secret Service Department."
Xie Xuan said: "The minister has arrived in Nanjing. From now on, the work of the Secret Service will be detailed and will be reported every day. I also ask the minister to take time out of his busy schedule to answer my call or send me a telegram."
Li Junshi smiled and said: "We will discuss the big things together. You can make the decision on the small things yourself. There is no need to report everything in detail."
Xie Xuan asked: "Where should we start with the first phase of Qingxiang work?"
Now that Li Junshi said so, he felt at ease.
There is no boundary between big things and small things. What Li Junshi thinks is a big thing may be a small thing to Li Junshi.
What he thinks is a small matter, Li Junshi will think is a big deal.
It's up to Xie Xuan to decide which ones he wants to report and which ones he doesn't want to talk about.
Li Junshi said: "Let's start with the five counties near Suzhou: Changshu, Wuxi, Jiangyin, Kunshan, and Taicang. You found out the Suzhou station chief Gu Ming and made a contribution to the development of the rural Qing Dynasty work. I also reported this matter to Wang Sir and Dean Zhou reported it, and they were full of praise for your performance."
If Gu Ming is still in office, all the information on the Qingxiang work will continue to flow to the New Fourth Army.
When the time comes, the work of clearing the countryside will not be said to be fruitful, but it will be good if it is not destroyed by the New Fourth Army.
Xie Xuan said casually: "In that case, why not set up a Qingxiang office in Suzhou?"
Li Junshi said: "Your proposal is good. The Qingxiang Committee is located in Nanjing, but the first phase of Qingxiang work was carried out around Suzhou. It is really inconvenient to direct it nearby. I think this office must be built, and I will be in charge when the time comes. The director of the department, you will be the deputy director."
Xie Xuan said: "Minister, you have to do the work of the Qingxiang Committee, and you have to do the work of the Secret Service Department. I suggest that Shi Senlin can concurrently serve as the deputy director of the Qingxiang Committee's Suzhou office."
It's not that he doesn't want to go to Suzhou, but that there was nothing wrong with going to Suzhou in the early stage.
Li Junshi won't be in Shenpu often in the future. Isn't it him who has the final say in the Secret Service?
When Li Junshi was about to speak, Xie Xuanzuo's phone suddenly rang. He glanced at Li Junshi, and after receiving a nod of agreement from the other party, he picked up the phone: "I'm Xie Xuan, oh, Miss Shangmei, what are your orders?"
When he heard the call from Naomi Ueno, Li Junshi listened attentively.
