"Brother Zuo, why are you so happy today?" He Yijun looked at Zuo Chong, who had been enjoying himself all day, and was a little curious.

"It's okay, I just feel like the sun is shining today and I feel naturally in a good mood." Of course Zuo Zhong couldn't tell her that he was happy because he contacted the underground party.

"Virgo called me earlier and asked you to go to his office." He Yijun looked at the memo and reminded Zuo Zhong.

Lao Dai called him what he was doing again. Zuo Zhong was a little confused. The opium den case was currently being investigated. It was said that there were no clues. Xu Enzeng was called and scolded several times by Director Chen.

Such a loss of money and money, let alone cousins, even if they were biological fathers, forced Xu Enzeng to look for help everywhere to help him solve the case.

Could it be that Xu Enzeng was begging Dai Chunfeng? Zuo Zhong felt that Dai Chunfeng would not be so generous. He wished that Xu Enzeng would die immediately, so how could he help him solve the case?

Dai Chunfeng asked Zuo Zhong to sit down, and after pondering for a while, he talked about the current international situation, especially the international community's attitude towards the Japanese.

"Seriously, American friends publicly announced at the beginning of the year that they would not recognize Manchukuo. Therefore, the attitude of the League of Nations also became tougher and demanded that the Japanese withdraw from North China. For a while, the Japanese were in a dilemma. Do you know this?"

Zuo Zhong knew what Dai Chunfeng said. There was still a little bit of humanitarian spirit in the United States in this era.

Although it is just a verbal statement that Japan-US trade has not stopped, it is not easy to make such a statement.

"The Americans are doing this just for their own interests, because they do not allow two powerful countries to appear on the Pacific coast."

Zuo Zhong expressed his views and reminded Dai Chunfeng: "Japan has not backed down, but its methods have become more covert. The policies they are using in North China are exactly the same as those used to support the puppet Manchukuo, such as recruiting traitors and fabricating autonomy requirements out of thin air.

.”

Now that Zuo Zhong understands the secrets, Dai Chunfeng is relieved. The task of the Secret Service this time is very important, and it is necessary to find someone who understands politics and understands the situation to take charge.

"This spring, Minister He of the Ministry of Military Affairs was ordered by the Chairman to replace the Marshal as Acting Chairman of the Peking Branch of the Military Commission. This matter has been widely discussed at home and abroad.

The Japanese are too arrogant and their spy activities are rampant. Minister He is really struggling to cope with taking charge of North China for the first time. In order to cooperate with frontal battlefield operations, the Chairman of the General Assembly has instructed me to select important spies to go to North China to take charge of spy work. I have already made suggestions to the committee members

Deputy Director Zheng will concurrently serve as the district chief of North China District and will be stationed in Peiping to collect intelligence on the Japanese army."

Zuo Zhong didn't understand what Dai Chunfeng meant by this. Has Deputy Director Zheng completely lost ground in the Secret Service? Will the power structure of the Secret Service change?

Dai Chunfeng waved his hand: "Haha, be careful not to think too much. This is a hard job and also very dangerous. Although military orders are hard to disobey, Zheng Tingbing has to agree, but he also has a request, that is, he needs you to follow him to North China, otherwise he would rather submit his resignation

.”

"Serve the country without any hesitation!"

Zuo Zhong didn't know what kind of dirty rights there were, but he had a duty to attack the Japanese. Now North China was at the forefront of the military, economic, cultural, and intelligence struggles between the two sides, and he wanted to do something.

Moreover, Dai Chun has already said this, and he must have a comprehensive plan in mind. Deputy Director Zheng's departure will also make it easier for him to consolidate the power of the Secret Service.

Dai Chunfeng was indeed very satisfied after hearing Zuo Zhong's statement. In addition to expanding his rights in the Secret Service, he had other plans in mind.

"Shen Zhong, when you go to Peking this time, the personnel, equipment, and treatment will all be favored. I think the dozen or so elite experts who did that last time can go together."

The incident at the opium den has become a big deal. Director Chen and Xu Enzeng are like mad dogs now, biting anyone they catch. These insiders are always a hidden danger in Jinling.

This does not mean to silence him, but he just wants to avoid the limelight temporarily. Dai Chunfeng believes that Zuo Zhong will understand the reason, and this is also for their own good.

Zuo Zhong breathed a sigh of relief: "Thank you, teacher, I understand what you mean." As long as Dai Chunfeng doesn't want to kill people and silence them, this kind of thing is troublesome.

Dai Chunfeng saw his reaction and said dissatisfied: "You don't think that the teacher would do that kind of thing, do you? That would be too stupid. You must learn to protect your loyal subordinates. You must remember this truth, Shen Zhi."

Zuo Zhong showed a little embarrassment: "The student is a little embarrassed, so should I go and communicate with Deputy Director Zheng? After all, he will be the chief officer after arriving in North China, and the students are afraid..."

"This is what you should do. Remember to focus on preserving your strength. Minister He is used to leading soldiers, and what he values ​​is that one general can make thousands of bones dry up. You must protect yourselves under his command. If there are any problems, please call him through the radio at any time.

communicate."

Dai Chunfeng was actually unwilling to push the Secret Service to the front line, but the capabilities of one branch were hard to describe. The Nanchang Camp Investigation Section was busy with the Southwest War. After counting, the Bureau of Statistics found that there were only two branches suitable for carrying out this task.

With the military orders coming, Zuo Zhong immediately began to prepare. First, he had to visit Deputy Director Zheng and ask the big boss about his plans.

Zheng Tingbing was very happy to see Zuo Chonglai. The situation in North China was very serious. It was said that Japanese agents were sabotaging and assassinating people everywhere. He had old arms and legs. He would never go there without an action master accompanying him.

Naturally, the Intelligence Division has the best operational skills in the Secret Service. This sounds like a joke, but Zheng Tingbing doesn't believe in the rubbish from the Operations Division.

Coupled with Zuo Zhong's meticulous thinking and the ability to capture many spies, he is a suitable helper.

"Zuo Zhong, I also ask you to be cautious. This time we go to North China and we have to work together. My safety will be left to you. As for other actions, you will be in charge. Official matters will be up to you.

Leave it to me to take charge, what do you think?"

It seemed that Zheng Tingbing was really anxious and even said these words to the two brothers.

Zuo Zhongxin said, "I'm just a teenager, so I don't want to be with you and my brothers." But looking at Deputy Director Zheng with a sad face, Zuo Zhong felt that he should comfort him so that he wouldn't cause trouble.

"Deputy Director Zheng, please rest assured that I will definitely protect your safety. Even though the Japanese are arrogant, North China is still our land. When doing things, we must pay attention to the right time, right place, and right people. Let’s not talk about the right time for now, but the right place, right place, and right people are right."

It’s here with us.”

Zheng Tingbing smiled when he heard this. What Zuo Zhong said was quite good.

In this way, I may not be able to make a career in North China, and it will save some people from being a Bodhisattva of the Secret Service. This is not a good thing. Bodhisattvas are so high that they are just like puppets.

"Shenzhong, you are right. Let's make it this way. We will take the train to Peking in three days. I don't know how many people you plan to bring this time. I suggest you have more people. Peking and Jinmen stations are empty and the staff level is very poor.

, you have to make plans in advance.”

"In this operation, Jiji feels that secrecy is the first purpose and cannot be made public. Otherwise, if the Japanese know that we are coming, they will definitely be prepared. Can you disguise yourself as a wealthy businessman, Jiji and a few subordinates disguise themselves as bodyguards for personal protection."

Zuo Zhong thought about it and suggested.

Zheng Tingbing naturally agreed: "Very good, we are doing intelligence work, so naturally we have to hide it. Let me see it this way, I am a wealthy businessman, and you are my brother. Others disguise themselves and take the same train. The number of people

It cannot be less than a hundred people."

Zuo Zhong was stunned. You might as well move the Secret Service here. He quickly stopped Zheng Tingbing's whim: "Director, I think thirty people are enough. We are only responsible for intelligence operations. The number of people is more important than having too many people. In addition, there are too many

People with foreign accents appear suddenly and it’s difficult to hide them.”

Zheng Tingbing was a little unhappy, but after thinking about it, he felt that what Zuo Zhong said was right, so he had to bargain: "Fifty people, no more. You don't know, it is said that Japanese spies assassinated the local garrison commander in broad daylight, with more than a dozen guns

Repeated shots were fired, the scene was horrific."

What could Zuo Zhong say? He had no choice but to agree with a wry smile. This was different from his previous plan.

Originally, he planned that a total of twenty people would be enough, but now there are fifty people, and he is troubled by the lack of candidates.

He had to report such a big matter to Dai Chunfeng. Dai Chunfeng didn't say anything, and approved it with a wave of his hand. It was just people. The Republic of China lacked everything, but not people.

Returning to his office, Zuo Zhong called Gui Youguang and Wu Chunyang. He had to take these two people with him. Gui Youguang originally came from Peiping Station and was familiar with the local situation, so he would not be blinded by their visit. Wu Chunyang

He is an operative who goes to the opium den. Taking him there can be both a meritorious service and protection.

After hearing what Zuo Zhong said about the mission, Gui Youguang looked excited. This could be considered a return to his hometown in glory, letting those who laughed at him know that Gui Youguang was back.

Wu Chunyang didn't say anything. He just did whatever the section chief said. Zuo Zhong never let them suffer.

This is Zuo Zhong's plan. Except for the operational personnel from the opium den last time and Gui Youguang, the rest will be selected from the 50 elite non-commissioned officers assigned to the Intelligence Section. Thank you Xu Enzeng, otherwise he really wouldn't have so many people.

.

Let the two of them go back to prepare, light a cigarette and start thinking.

What he said before about the favorable location and people was just to deceive Zheng Tingbing. The Japanese were much stronger in the north than the national government. After all, they had made preparations for so many years, so they must be fully prepared when going to North China this time.

In addition to the standard PPK and Zirait for the secret service, you also need to bring some long guns. The German trading company has a ready-made Kar98, which can be used as a sniper rifle on special occasions. There is also the American Thompson submachine gun, which has a large ammunition capacity and fierce firepower.

Of course, flash bombs and hand grenades are indispensable, and special equipment such as explosives, radios, and medical kits must also be prepared. It is better to count on yourself than to count on Beiping and Jinmen stations.

Zuo Zhong decided that apart from necessary contacts, he was not going to have any more dealings with these two stations. Who knew if there were any Japanese spies inside.
Chapter completed!
