Kingsman Agent in Film and Television

Chapter 554 Chaotic Preparations

night.

Secret stronghold.

Zheng Yi sat at her desk, staring blankly at the investigation reports handed in by her subordinates, until a breeze blew the top report away, and then she ended this meaningless behavior.

Glancing at the investigation report that Qingfeng had opened, she smiled wryly and said to herself:

“People’s hearts are unstable!”

What made her so emotional was that the investigation report was very sloppy, which was obviously different from previous reports.

She knew the reason without asking - the news that Chief Zhang was under investigation had been confirmed, and her subordinates had no intention of continuing the investigation.

She had looked for Dai Chunfeng today, and also for her teacher, Xu Wenzhen, the stationmaster of Chongqing Station. Dai Chunfeng ignored her, and her teacher, although showing some interest in this, refused to let Chongqing Station get involved in this mess.

In the teacher's words:
"The Great Thief Intelligence Team has been completely wiped out. It's impossible to put the entire Chongqing Station's manpower into this just for a guess, a groundless speculation!"

Although Xu Wen Zheng used this reason, Zheng Yi understood that it was just an excuse. The real reason was that Xu Wen Zheng was looking forward to seeing Commander Zhang make a fool of himself.

Any tree that is beautiful in the forest will be destroyed by the wind!

She sighed and decided to end the investigation into the Chongqing Air Defense Command - without the support of Commander Zhang and the Chongqing Station's refusal to intervene, she was powerless to persist.

"Ah--"

She couldn't help laughing out loud. To many people, the embarrassment and death of Zhang Shihao, this giant whale, is more meaningful than capturing a Japanese spy, right?

Looking at the investigation report on the table, she had the urge to burn all the documents - the investigation into this mysterious Japanese spy would have to be reopened in the future, and she really wanted to destroy these things and let the next investigator start over.

Resisting the urge, she began to pack these things up.

While I was busy, a voice suddenly came from behind me:
"Do you want to pack up and go back now?"

The voice was very familiar. Zheng Yi was stunned for a moment, then turned around. When he saw the person who came into his sight, he was suddenly filled with surprise:

"Commander Zhang!"

Zhang Anping pressed his hand to signal her not to get excited, then walked into the house and sat down, took out a list and signaled Zheng Yi to continue:

"The scope of the Air Defense Command's investigation can be narrowed down to the people on the list."

Zheng Yi took it and had a look at it, her heart trembled - this list was much shorter than the secret investigation she was currently leading, but the level was really deadly.

She said in embarrassment: "Sir, this..."

It would be impossible to investigate so many high-ranking military officers without proper procedures, right?
"manpower?"

"It's a formality."

"There's no problem with the formalities. The bureau headquarters will report to the attendant room. Manpower is not a problem either. Go to the bureau headquarters tomorrow to select as many people as you want!"

Zhang Anping spoke quite arrogantly. During the previous investigation, there was no support from the bureau headquarters, and the only people they could mobilize were the people brought by Shen Fei and the intelligence team selected by Zheng Yi.

It’s different now, the Military Intelligence Bureau headquarters fully supports us!

Zheng Yi was overjoyed when he heard this. If manpower was not a problem, the subsequent investigation would be much easier.

"But you have to keep it secret and don't let the news leak out. I'll arrange a job for you at the Air Defense Command to facilitate your investigation."

This is the result of having support from the bureau headquarters. It wasn’t so convenient before.

"Yes!" Zheng Yi replied, and then asked carefully: "Sir, you...your matter..."

Zhang Anping smiled and asked instead of answering: "Do you think I'm stupid?"

Zheng Yi’s eyes widened instantly. It turned out... it turned out that this was a trap set up deliberately by Commander Zhang!
On second thought, if even I was deceived, then there is no way my opponent would know about it.

At this moment, Zheng Yi felt that what followed would be easy.

Zhang Anping explained something more before leaving this secret base. Zheng Yi couldn't help but smile foolishly at Zhang Anping's back. She thought to herself:
Chief Zhang’s attitude today... is so gentle!

……

Zhang Anping's gentle attitude towards her is because he has already accepted her in his heart, and Zheng Yi has also been recognized by Zhang Anping. If he hadn't recognized her, would Zhang Anping show his gentle side to her?
When facing Zhang Tietie, don't think that you can be an exception just because you are Fairy Feihong...

Keke, get back to business.

After coming out of the secret base, Zhang Anping came to Shen Fei's residence - Shen Fei's residence was arranged by the Central Bureau of Investigation and was surrounded by Central Bureau of Investigation agents, so Zhang Anping dressed up in disguise.

Women's clothing?

Of course not. Shen Fei’s level is not high enough and the color is not right, so naturally he cannot see Zhang Anping in women’s clothing.

After meeting Shen Fei in a secret code and entering Shen Fei's residence, Shen Fei asked carefully: "District Chief?"

Not only did he not tell Zheng Yi, he even kept it a secret from Shen Fei about the inside story of his detention. But it was obvious that Shen Fei was full of confidence in his own district chief and believed that Zhang Anping would never be so foolish as to "give away his life".

Zhang Anping smiled and asked directly without explaining, "What progress have you made?"

Shen Fei replied: "I feel like I'm about to lock onto the target!"

The word "feeling" is very imprecise when used in a report, but Shen Fei is so confident - compared to the brutal spy battlefield in Shanghai, the headquarters of the Central Bureau of Investigation is simply a greenhouse.

So he used the word "feeling" very confidently.

Zhang Anping knew Shen Fei's personality, so when he saw him saying that, he said, "Don't close the net yet, keep a close eye on him and find out who's up."

"Yes!"

……

Zhang Anping had already discussed the details of the plan with Lao Dai. The two most critical aspects of this plan were:
First, the selection of battlefield locations and the secret deployment of air defense forces;

Second, identify the suspicious persons in the Chongqing Air Defense Command as quickly as possible. Only after narrowing the number of suspicious persons to a few people can we conduct more accurate and effective control after releasing the news and find the spies.

The first one had to be solved by Old Dai personally. Only he could secretly mobilize several air defense units nearby that were not affiliated with the Chongqing Air Defense Command through the attendant room. Zhang Anping did not have this ability.

While Zhang Anping was secretly preparing for the first step, he disguised himself as a foreign aid and joined the secret investigation team led by Zheng Yi to assist Zheng Yi in narrowing down the list of suspects.

For several days in a row, Zhang Anping immersed himself in the mountains of files in the Air Defense Command. He studied various suspicious persons through various materials such as meeting minutes, military order records, etc., supplemented by various information secretly found by Zheng Yi's investigation team.

To give an example of a specific situation, in order to respond to the Japanese air raids, the air defense command secretly adjusted the location of an air defense battalion, hoping to catch the Japanese army off guard when they attacked.

But the final result was a failure - this may be related to a leak, but it may also be due to the Japanese army changing the route.

Normally in such cases the air defense command would conduct a leak investigation. Even if they came to the conclusion that the Japanese army changed its flight path, they would still have to keep records.

Zhang Anping was looking for suspicious clues in these complex and chaotic files.

After three days of immersion, he finally narrowed the already narrowed list to nine people.

Although there are only seven fewer people than on the previously provided list, it is a significant reduction in the work of the entire secret investigation team, and the efficiency has been increased by more than two times.

Zheng Yi looked at the list Zhang Anping had provided again, secretly admiring Zhang Anping's analytical ability, and pointed to a name with a pen and said:
“Should this person be crossed out?”

The name Zheng Yi pointed to was a German named "Hell Werner", who was once a member of the German advisory group and was specifically responsible for guiding German air defense equipment.

After the outbreak of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, the Germans withdrew their advisory group. Herr Weiner and several German advisers made a surprising decision - they gave up their identities in the German Wehrmacht and chose to help the National Government resist the invasion as civilians.

Some German advisers even died on the battlefield, such as Lieutenant von Schmeling, who was posthumously awarded the rank of colonel by the Nationalist government.

It was also because of Lieutenant Schmeling that the Chinese soldiers had great trust and respect for the German advisers who remained in the country.

Zheng Yi, an agent who is suspicious by nature, crossed out the name Herr Weiner without hesitation after seeing it, precisely because of this reason.

But this action made Zhang Anping frown, and he asked:

"What is your identity?"

Zheng Yi was stunned for a long while before he said, "An agent from the Military Intelligence Bureau."

Zhang Anping looked at her without saying anything. Zheng Yi felt scared by Zhang Anping's gaze. After hesitating for a while, he said:
"Sir, I know I was wrong."

"When investigating spies, as long as they are suspicious, even if that person is me, you must never jump to conclusions - only evidence can clear the suspect's suspicion. Apart from that, all other identities are useless."

"I understand."

Although he was taught a lesson by Zhang Anping, Zheng Yi still intentionally or unintentionally ignored the German consultant Herr Weiner in the subsequent investigation.

……

Old Dai is ready.

"You must do your best this time, kid!"

In the office, Dai Chunfeng told Zhang Anping: "In order to transfer the air defense force, I have used all my connections. If I can't make your uncle proud, I will lose my face completely!"

Zhang Anping was beaming with joy as he looked at the troop list handed to him by Dai Chunfeng.

Old Dai was really awesome. Even though the air defense forces stationed around Chongqing gave priority to supplying Chongqing, he still managed to grab an air defense regiment and seven air defense battalions.

But Zhang Anping's smile didn't last long.

Because he saw the equipment information of these air defense forces.

He originally thought that they were all air defense forces, and their equipment should not be much different from the air defense forces garrisoning Chongqing.

But the facts left him dumbfounded.

Compared with the air defense forces garrisoning Chongqing, the equipment gap between these air defense forces is as huge as the gap between the central army and the local army.

With one anti-aircraft regiment and seven anti-aircraft battalions, they could only mobilize four anti-aircraft guns, and these four anti-aircraft guns were manufactured by four different countries - Zhang Anping even doubted whether these four anti-aircraft guns could be used.

Their main anti-aircraft firepower is anti-aircraft machine guns and simply modified heavy machine guns. Old Dai actually has no idea about their air defense capabilities.

So when he saw Zhang Anping's face fall, he asked: "Anping, this is the largest air defense force we can mobilize besides Chongqing. Do you think it's reliable?"

Zhang Anping hesitated for a while and then said, "Director, let me ask an expert in air defense."

He was good at intelligence, not war. He used to make up for his disadvantages by making tricks, which gave Old Dai an illusion:
My nephew is also good at fighting!
But he knows his own business. Although he has been cramming relevant knowledge during this period, he is ultimately a newbie with zero experience. Faced with the poor equipment, he is not sure whether the geographical advantage can make up for the shortcomings - when he proposed the plan, it was largely influenced by the information from his previous life.

He remembered that there were cases in our army where a plane was shot down by taking advantage of geographical advantages, so he came up with the idea of ​​using geographical advantages plus a large number of air defense forces to set a death trap and wait for the Japanese planes to take the bait.

But he never thought that in the national army's air defense forces, the number of anti-aircraft guns, which posed the greatest threat to aircraft, would be so scarce!
Although anti-aircraft machine guns and simply modified heavy machine guns could certainly threaten Japanese planes, he was not sure whether he could achieve his goal. With such a large display, if he could "hook up" dozens of planes and try his best to shoot down two or three of them, it would be a joke.

Zhang Anping's uncertain look made Old Dai, who was burning with anger, feel like a cold shower. He said in a disappointed tone:

"You should study it - don't make a fool of yourself later."

……

Zhang Anping's experience in the Air Defense Command's database was not in vain. He had a good idea of ​​the air defense experts in the Chongqing Air Defense Force.

The most famous among them was the German consultant Herr Werner. However, Zhang Anping's way of "hiring" air defense experts was a bit special. He was embarrassed to invite this one, so he set his sights on another one.

Yu Yongqing, a professional air defense officer who returned from studying in Germany, currently works in the Logistics Department of the Air Defense Command as a small major with no name or power.

Zhang Anping's way of asking for help was very special. After he decided to consult the other party, several uninvited guests from the Central Bureau of Investigation came to the Air Defense Command and directly arrested Yu Yongqing on the charge of collaborating with the Communist Party. This professional air defense officer who had returned from studying in Germany, despite his background of studying abroad, ended up working as an unknown and powerless person in the logistics field. Naturally, no colleague stood up to speak a fair word for him when he was arrested by the Central Bureau of Investigation.

Yu Yongqing was disheartened after being arrested. He was wholeheartedly devoted to serving his country, but he did not expect that due to a conflict with his superiors, he was stripped of his position as battalion commander and sent to the logistics department to grow disgruntled. He could have still held on and wanted to take the opportunity to write some materials on air defense to help improve the air defense forces, but he did not expect to encounter this misfortune again.

"Forget it, forget it. I have no way to serve my country. What can I do?"

He was desperate and accepted his fate, intending to accept whatever accusation the other party put on him. However, he did not expect that the Central Bureau of Investigation agents who escorted him did not send him to the party headquarters in Chongqing, but to a strange place hidden among private residences.

When he entered here, he suddenly felt a solemn and murderous atmosphere - this was a place converted from a civilian house into a command center. Although the people inside were all in plain clothes, the way they walked quickly back and forth made him smell an odor like a pre-war command center.

A smart and cool woman came over, and her cool look made Yu Yongqing a little dazed.

"Major Yu?"

Yu Yongqing came back to his senses and said dryly, "It's me."

The cold and beautiful woman gestured to unlock Yu Yongqing's handcuffs, and then said: "Yu Shaoxiao, come with me - you guys go back."

Yu Yongqing was dizzy. The act of unlocking the handcuffs made him feel inexplicable kindness. As he followed the cold and beautiful woman, he asked blankly: "Girl, are you going to take me..."

He was very puzzled. Didn’t they say I was a communist?
At this time, they just walked to a house. The cold and beautiful woman interrupted Yu Yongqing's question and said crisply: "We are here - Major Yu, please come in, the commander is waiting for you."

Yu Yongqing glanced at the other person, took a deep breath, and then walked into the house.

There was only a young man in a Zhongshan suit in the room. When he saw him come in, the young man smiled brightly and said:
“@#¥%……*&……”

Yu Yongqing's face darkened instantly: "Japanese?"

"Of course not - it's just a simple test." The young man smiled and said, "Major Yu, I'm sorry to ask you to come here in this way."

He extended his hand and said, "Major Yu, please sit down."

The young man was naturally Zhang Anping. Just in case, he took this "heart-pounding" approach to invite air defense experts.

Yu Yongqing, who was heartbroken, took a calm attitude and sat down and asked directly:
"You, the Central Bureau of Investigation, are accusing me of something at random. I'm afraid you have other intentions, right?"

"Let me correct you - we are the Military Control Commission," Zhang Anping sat down and looked directly at Yu Yongqing. Seeing Yu Yongqing's puzzled look, he said:
"Major Yu, let me ask you a question. Can an air defense regiment plus seven air defense battalions, by waiting for the enemy to come, severely damage a wave of Japanese planes? This is their equipment situation - this is the map of the battlefield I preset, take a look."

As he spoke, Zhang Anping pushed over the map and equipment information that he had prepared long ago.

The question Zhang Anping asked was exactly what Yu Yongqing was best at. Although his doubts were not answered, he still took the information on the map that Zhang Anping pushed over. He glanced at the map and immediately said:
"Shenlong Gorge?"

"Major Yu is really familiar with the environment around Chongqing!" Zhang Anping couldn't help but sigh.

Shenlong Gorge is more than 150 miles away from Chongqing. I took out a military map without place names marked on it. The other party recognized the place after a simple scan. It was obvious that he had memorized the map of Chongqing.

This place was chosen by Lao Dai and meets all the conditions proposed by Zhang Anping.

Yu Yongqing ignored Zhang Anping's sigh and picked up the equipment information of the air defense force. After a quick glance, he had an idea in his mind and asked:

"Do you want to deploy multiple air defense positions in the Shenlong Gorge area to form a dense air defense network and wait for the enemy to come?"

"Well, I just want to know, with our anti-aircraft firepower, can we bury the enemy's fleet here?" Zhang Anping asked calmly, but he was very nervous.

Yu Yongqing asked: "How big is the fleet?"

"If there is something here that they must blow up, well..." Zhang Anping thought for a moment and simply said, "It is American anti-aircraft equipment that is enough to arm four anti-aircraft regiments. How many planes do you think they will send out?"

This sentence reveals enough information.

Yu Yongqing was pleasantly surprised when he heard this, and couldn't help but say to himself, "The purchase of American weapons has been finalized! That's great!"

Then he controlled his own gaffe, thought for a moment and said, "It will be at least a fleet of about 40 aircraft."

After giving this answer, he couldn't help laughing as he looked at the horrible equipment data and fell silent.

Zhang Anping suppressed his anxiety and asked, "Is there any hope?"

"Yes, but the air defense positions have to be arranged extremely properly - it's best to have a three-dimensional arrangement..." Yu Yongqing rambled on and on about how to arrange it. In fact, he was not talking to Zhang Anping, but was thinking about it based on the terrain.

Zhang Anping did not disturb him, but listened as if listening to a divine book, until he heard Yu Yongqing say:
"After all, there are too few anti-aircraft guns. If there were more, it wouldn't be a problem to destroy half of them!"

Yes, the anti-aircraft guns of these anti-aircraft forces that Lao Dai borrowed with great difficulty are really not up to par!

"If we could transfer some anti-aircraft guns from Chongqing..."

Yu Yongqing's murmur gave Zhang Anping an idea. He could indeed "secretly" transfer several air defense forces from Chongqing.

Zhang Anping asked again:
"Major Yu, are you sure you can destroy the Japanese fleet? Rather than ending up with nothing?"

"Sir, look," Yu Yongqing explained, "There are several peaks in the Shenlong Gorge area with an altitude of more than 700 meters. The highest one, Baoziling, is more than meters. The altitude at the bottom of the valley is nearly meters, and the maximum drop is more than meters!"

"The anti-aircraft position has a height advantage of 600 meters. At the right distance, anti-aircraft shooting will have a huge advantage."

"We can build a three-dimensional air defense network based on several high mountains such as Baoziling. With the advantage of several hundred meters, we can form multiple interception networks, which will geometrically multiply the killing effect on enemy aircraft!"

The reason why Zhang Anping prepared a "mausoleum" like Shenlong Gorge for the Japanese devils was that he wanted to use a three-dimensional air defense network to expand the killing effect on enemy aircraft, but he did not have a clear understanding.

But Yu Yongqing is different. He is a professional air defense officer and is very clear about the advantages of forming a three-dimensional air defense network against the enemy.

This explanation made Zhang Anping's worries disappear, and he asked:

"Major Yu, for the next period of time, I would like you to serve as my air defense advisor and assist me in building an air defense system in Shenlong Gorge. How do you think?"

Although Yu Yongqing didn't know Zhang Anping's specific identity, he stood up without hesitation:
"no problem."

"However... for the sake of confidentiality, your movements will be restricted for the next period of time. I hope Major Yu will understand."

For a young officer like Yongqing who wanted to serve his country, as long as he could kill the devils, he didn't care about anything else. He had seen Zhang Anping's purpose. When he heard that his freedom of movement was restricted to keep it secret, he was not unhappy at all. He said:

"Don't worry, sir. I won't have any complaints!"

……

With Yu Yongqing's advisory support, Zhang Anping was fully confident about the next "dumpling-making" plan.

He secretly dispatched personnel to areas around Chongqing to secretly recruit carpenters. After providing these carpenters with photos of American anti-aircraft equipment, he asked them to work overtime overnight to make wooden models of the same scale. Before the transport team arrived in Luzhou, which was deliberately delayed by him several times, they finally produced a large number of crudely made "American anti-aircraft equipment."

Although these wooden models are crudely made due to the rush to complete them, after they are painted, it is difficult to tell the real from the fake from a distance.

Afterwards, Zhang Anping secretly ordered that these "air defense equipment" be transported to Luzhou under the cover of night. After the replacement was completed in Luzhou, they were escorted to Chongqing by the transport team. When they arrived in Jiangjin County, the transport team broke away from the water transport and turned to Nanchuan County.

At this time, a military order was also delivered to the Chongqing Air Defense Command.

This military order was extremely confidential and only a few people in the headquarters could see it. It was an order to mobilize troops, instructing the Chongqing Air Defense Command to dispatch four well-equipped air defense battalions to secretly station in Shenlong Gorge, southwest of Nanchuan County.

"Japanese planes frequently bomb Chongqing. Why are we moving four anti-aircraft battalions to Nanchuan at this time? What will we do if Japanese planes attack next time?"

At a high-level meeting of the Air Defense Command, a senior officer said dissatisfiedly: "Then everyone will blame us for our incompetence again!"

"Air defense, air defense. Nine out of ten defenses are air defenses! We are already in a difficult situation, and now we are pulling troops away..."

"Guys, that's not what's going on—something's coming!"

"Ah?" Everyone at the meeting looked surprised.

"The stuff has arrived, but the higher-ups are worried about Chongqing's air defense. They spent a lot of money to buy these precious treasures, but they are worried that they will be targeted by the Japanese in Chongqing, so they placed them in Nanchuan. These four air defense battalions are there to guard against any emergency. We will upgrade our weapons in the next period of time!"

"Once all the air defense equipment is upgraded to American ones, the Japanese planes will be in big trouble!"

"Great! Um - Mr. Weiner, I don't dislike German equipment."

German consultant Herr Weiner said frankly: "I understand, I understand, and I am also very happy that we can replace the new air defense equipment. I believe that after the replacement, the days when Japanese planes can come and go freely in the sky of Chongqing will come to an end!"

After the senior officers of the headquarters exchanged views for a while, the air defense commander ended the secret meeting. Before ending, he reminded:
"Everyone, this matter is of great importance. You must guard against it and not let the secret leak out!"

After the headquarters meeting, they unanimously decided to secretly send the four most elite air defense battalions to Nanchuan.

……

When the air defense command was holding a meeting, Zhang Anping appeared in the secret base.

He called a meeting with several key members of Zheng Yi's intelligence team and Zheng Yi.

When Zhang Anping appeared in the conference room without disguise, these key members stood up in surprise - wasn't Commander Zhang detained by order of the attendant office himself?
"Teacher, why are you here?" An agent who graduated from the first class of Guanwang Temple couldn't help but ask.

"Can't I come?" Zhang Anping asked back and sat down first. After the others followed suit, he said:
"Everyone, I am in charge of this investigation. Now, I have put out the bait, and your task is to keep a close eye on your respective targets. This is your only chance. If you neglect your duties or act rashly, you will fail..."

Zhang Anping's eyes turned cold, and after glancing around, he said in a cold voice:

"Then prepare to commit suicide!"

Everyone stood up and responded loudly.

Zhang Anping's arrangement this time killed two birds with one stone, which were severely damaging Japanese planes and catching the "one-armed bandit".

The former has been arranged and is just waiting for Japanese planes to come in, while the key link of the latter is to find out the "ghost" hidden in the air defense headquarters.

There is only this one chance. If we miss it, the frightened spy will never show up again.

That's why Zhang Anping personally showed up to put pressure on these Military Control Commission elites.

At the same time, he also stayed in a secret base, ready to deal with any emergency at any time.

Now, everything is ready, just waiting for the spy to contact his superiors, so as to find out the mastermind behind the scenes and destroy this cancer that has been deeply rooted in the Nationalist government. (End of this chapter)
