Several hours after Zuo Chong sent Cui Hongyong away, Luo Yongying came to Deputy Minister Li's office and reported on the surveillance results of "Team Leader Xu". After saying that, she lowered her head and asked carefully.

"Chief, am I exposed?"

Deputy Minister Li shook his head with a smile, asked her to sit down and talk, then leaned on the old official hat chair and lit a hand-rolled cigarette.

"Little Ronaldo, you have to understand one thing. Zuo Chong is the number two person in the intelligence system of the Fructus Party. He has been in the industry for a long time and has rich experience in grassroots intelligence work.

Due to confidentiality, I can't tell you the tasks he has performed, but the Japanese suffered a lot of losses in his hands, and it can even be said to be in a defeat.

The current intelligence agents of the Military Control Commission have basically worked under his command. The current training materials used by the Military Control Commission are also revised and recompiled by him, and are equally excellent in intelligence theory.

Compared with such a spy who has both experience and theory, there is indeed a gap between you and most comrades of the Ministry of Social Affairs. We must face this gap."

After knocking the ashes, Deputy Minister Li solemnly introduced Zuo Zhong's situation. Just as Zuo Zhong guessed, the underground party had already known his identity, but it was not exposed due to the condolence group's face.

Luo Yongying knew that Zuo Chong was the deputy director of the Military Control Commission, and also knew that Zuo Chong had a high status in the intelligence system of the Fructus Party, but he didn't know that the other party was so difficult to deal with, and his expression suddenly became gloomy.

Perhaps detecting her loss, Deputy Minister Li suddenly raised his tone: "But we have our strengths, and hundreds of thousands of people in the border area are our best assistants. No matter how cunning the spies are, they cannot escape their eyes and ears.

Didn’t the bald man beside Zuo Chong shake you off? Don’t be afraid. We will mobilize the people around us to restore this person’s movement tonight bit by bit and pull out the fox’s tail!”

"Yes! Chief." Luo Yongying regained his fighting spirit and replied loudly.

Relying on the people is a magic weapon that the underground party can develop and grow under the siege of the Fruit Party. This is not only military, but also intelligence work.

With countless people, they will have a clever eye and a smooth ear, and every move of the enemy will be exposed.

Luo Yongying was excited and thought of Cui Hongyong, who was drunk, and quickly reported the matter. The other party was the instructor of the Southern Jin Guerrilla Detachment. If he defected, it would have a very bad impact.

Especially at the moment when the government frequently creates friction and frantically squeezes the living space in the border areas, Cui Hongyong's accident may lead to a chain reaction, and the good situation of Jin Province's anti-Japanese war will be ruined.

Deputy Minister Li naturally knew the seriousness of the matter. After hearing this, he twisted the cigarette butts hard, got up, put on a military uniform and came to the window, looked out the window and was silent for a while before turning around.

"It's going to rain and my mother wants to get married. Everyone has to pay the price for their choice, but I believe Comrade Cui Hongyong will report this to the Ministry of Social Affairs. By the way, he is an intellectual young man who joined the organization after the Lugou Bridge Incident, right?"

"Yes, Deputy Minister."

Luo Yongying dictated Cui Hongyong's archives without thinking: "He is from Beiping and joined the party's outside party organization during his college years. Local comrades have a high opinion of him. He became a party member at the end of 37 and went to the Taihang Mountain headquarters.

The headquarters security department conducted a strict review of it, and concluded that there was no problem. After emergency training, Cui Hongyong was sent to the southern guerrilla detachment to serve as the instructor. The superior's comment was that he was brave in combat and firm in his position."

Deputy Minister Li pulled the clothes on his shoulders, and his eyes showed a thoughtful look. The other party was a standard new political worker with a high education and a background in student movement. After the Japanese invaded China, they committed suicide.

The headquarters sent him to the guerrillas more to train and increase his experience in grassroots work. As long as such people do not make big mistakes, they will definitely bear greater responsibilities in the future.

In any aspect, Cui Hongyong could not betray the organization, but why did he agree to the invitation from the government? Didn’t he know that this incident could easily cause misunderstandings?

"Report!"

A voice suddenly came from outside the door. Luo Yongying glanced at Deputy Minister Li who was thinking. She could hear that the master of the voice was Cui Hongyong they just talked about.

The leader was really right. The other party did not hide the meeting with Zuo Chong. It seemed that the other party was indeed a comrade with a firm stance. Luo Yongying couldn't help but feel ashamed of his suspicion.

Working in the Ministry of Social Affairs, often dealing with reactionaries and spies, it is easy to develop a "bad" habit, and you will find it suspicious to see anyone, including your own people.

In addition to the reasons of the southwest and a certain period, many comrades have a bad impression of them. Apart from necessary work contact, they basically do not have private communication. It can be said that they are avoided. The staff of the Ministry of Social Affairs are helpless and aggrieved.

While Luo Yongying was thinking, Deputy Minister Li, who was standing by the window, narrowed his eyes, walked to the desk and sat down, and spoke loudly.

Cui Hongyong heard the sound and walked into the house and saluted, saying strongly: "Cui Hongyong, the instructor of the Southern Jinan Guerrilla Detachment, came to report."

Although he was full of alcohol, he was fluent in his mouth and clear in his eyes. He was obviously not drunk. This was completely different from what he did when he and Zuo Chong were drinking. It was completely different from what he had to support before he could return to his residence.

Deputy Minister Li looked at the other party and asked kindly: "Well, Comrade Cui Hongyong, is there anything important to come to me so late?"

Upon hearing this question, Cui Hongyong did not answer, but glanced at Luo Yongying, as if he did not want to report it in the presence of a third party.

"Haha, it doesn't matter, Comrade Luo can trust." Deputy Minister Li waved his hand, so that he didn't have to worry.

Cui Hongyong did not hesitate anymore and spoke out his invitation to drink with the government staff. He told them all in detail. Even the spies of the Fruit Party promised high-ranking officials to make a rebellion, but he did not hide anything.

"This is the specific situation. Chief, the reason why I agreed to the agent's invitation was to see what tricks the other party was going to play and get some benefits by the way. Not to mention, I really got a few boxes of canned food."

Cui Hongyong explained the reason why he went to the appointment. When talking about canned beef, he even grinned and scratched his head embarrassedly.

"Hahaha, it's great. We need as much as the sugar-coated shells as there are, and we're afraid that the Chairman will not be willing to bear it."

Deputy Minister Li laughed after hearing this, which was considered to be a praising the other party for eating sugar coats and shooting the shells back.

Now the border area is in short supply, and canned beef is very expensive. If he knew that having a meal with a spy would have such benefits, he would have invited the deputy director Zuo to have a drink long ago.

According to the increase given by Zuo Chong, it would not be too much for him, the deputy minister of the Ministry of Social Affairs, to get a hundred boxes, so that the wounded and sick in the hospital at the station and headquarters would not have to worry about nutrition. Deputy Minister Li secretly called it a pity.

On the other hand, Cui Hongyong learned that his superiors did not doubt him, so he relaxed a lot. Then he turned his expression and reported the second thing.

"Chief, at the end of the drink, I was afraid of saying something I shouldn't say, so I pretended to be drunk and lay on the table. Unexpectedly, the spy named Xu came back from outside and the two of them said something at the door."

"Oh? What's the matter."

Deputy Minister Li was a little curious and a little skeptical. It was incredible that Zuo Chong, such a sophisticated spy, could not see that Cui Hongyong was pretending to be drunk.

Cui Hongyong also knew that this matter was strange, and even more so that his words would cause how serious the consequences he would have. He gritted his teeth and finally plucked up the courage and spoke slowly.

"The person surnamed Xu asked the spy to monitor a person. The spy originally thought it was a Japanese spy, but the person surnamed Xu said that the other party was from the Fruit Party and a lurker who was stationed in the border area by the Fruit Party."

"Who!" Deputy Minister Li stood up, feeling both surprise and doubt in his heart.

The Gory Party has installed many spies in the border areas, which is an indisputable fact. With the help of comrades on the secret front, the Ministry of Social Affairs and the Security Department have also arrested a lot, but those are just small characters, and the real big fish are still floating under the water.

He had long learned from special channels that Dai Chunfeng, Zhu Liuxian, Erchen, and even Zuo Chong had a group of extremely confidential intelligence personnel under his command. These people used their perfect fake identities and even real identities to enter the border area to implement the in-depth lurking plan.

Before receiving the activation order, they were no different from ordinary border workers. They were active and serious in their work, had progressive thoughts, and had high awareness. They could not distinguish them from their daily performance.

Now that he heard the clues about these spies, how could Vice Minister Li not be surprised? It was just that this matter was leaked from Zuo Chong's mouth, which sounded a bit...

Cui Hong, opposite, looked at Vice Minister Li with a slightly changed expression, and said a person's name word by word: "Zhu Wenlin."

Immediately afterwards, he added: "It was the conflict with the Xu man at the rescue site, the head of the army, who almost caused a confrontation. Could this be the plan of team leader Xu's separation and intend to take revenge on the army Zhu.

Also, I suspect that the other party is not surnamed Xu at all. On the day the Japanese air strike at the guesthouse, Xu Enzeng obviously paused when calling out the person's name. Please be careful when organizing the investigation.

The spies of the National Party have always been cunning and acted scheming. Compared to them, I would rather believe my comrades. The Southwest incident is still in front of us, and our career can no longer withstand such losses."

Cui Hong spoke sincerely in a tone, not happy about the credit he was about to get. Instead, he repeatedly reminded his superiors not to be trapped in the spy's tricks, which shows that he was devoted to the public.

Vice Minister Li was a little surprised. Most people would never think of so many things when they encountered such a thing. Instructor Cui was very good.

After thinking about it, he asked Cui Hongyong if he had heard other information, such as specific evidence, the code of contacting Zhu Wenlin and his superiors, etc.

Cui Hongyong shook his head. Yan Ming later went to the middle of the yard. He could not eavesdrop, but he also promised that he would continue to inquire before leaving the garrison.

"Okay, thank you for your hard work. We will deal with this matter properly. Thank you Comrade Cui for your truthful report."

After the matter was over, we got it all over. Deputy Minister Li did not slam the enthusiasm of Cui Hongyong. He reached out to shake the other party and then sent him to the door with Luo Yongying.
