Kingsman Agent in Film and Television

Judging from the time when these menial servants were recruited on a large scale, it can be seen that the Japanese quietly focused their attention on the Wang Puppet Financial Institutions when the first wave of "real money" appeared.

The first wave of counterfeit money was harvested smoothly. Because of its own troubles, the Ito Agency was in a dog-eat-dog relationship with the smuggling network, and its attention did not seem to be focused on the counterfeit money - but the fact was that Ito Masashi secretly intervened through another force.

Just to find out the traitor?
impossible!
If Zhang Anping was Ito, he would not only find out the traitor, but also take sudden action during this counterfeit money harvest through the Military Control Commission's first counterfeit money channel!

People have inertia. Even someone like Zhang Anping, after making sure that the energy of Ito's agency was tied up, chose many of the same channels for the first shipment when shipping the counterfeit money the second time, not to mention other district stations.

After realizing this, Zhang Anping immediately alerted the bureau headquarters and asked them to immediately issue an order to the military stations in the occupied areas:

Immediately withdraw all groups involved in the shipment of counterfeit money! Withdraw all of them without a single one left!

Note that this is a request, almost in the form of an order.

Faced with Zhang Anping's serious tone, Lao Dai did not dare to be careless. He immediately ordered all district stations in the occupied areas to withdraw the agents involved in the shipment of counterfeit banknotes, and all the counterfeit banknotes could be distributed on the spot.

While reporting to the bureau headquarters, Zhang Anping ordered all intelligence teams involved in the shipment of counterfeit banknotes in the Beijing-Shanghai area to evacuate immediately.

……

Ito noticed the unusual movements of the Military Control Commission at the first moment.

But just like Zhang Anping thought, his appetite this time was not very big - at least he didn't intend to dig a big hole and bury the Shanghai Military Control Commission alive.

But he was ambitious about the Military Control Commission outside Shanghai!

Let’s first review what Ito has experienced during this period.

[Otani's death and the layout of the secret telegram made Ito extremely wary of Zhang Shihao. He even lost the courage to confront Zhang Shihao for a time.

Faced with the backstab that the mastermind behind the smuggling network intended to turn into a real one, Ito at that time did not even have the intention to resist and just waited to be sent away from this place of trouble.

But at this time, Feiyuan, who had strongly recommended him to come to Shanghai, contacted him again.

At this time, Japan's senior agents had not yet died out, and there were many candidates to replace Ito, but Dobiyuan knew very well that if someone else went to Shanghai, he would always have to endure severe beatings from Zhang Shihao in the initial stage, and the price of each beating was... heavy losses!
Therefore, Dohyo was unwilling to give up Ito.

Because he understood that the experience of the agents who had experienced Zhang Shihao's beating was extremely valuable. It would be difficult to easily replace them. Oral experience could never compare to personal experience.

Therefore, he protected Ito and gave him the greatest help:

We can do our best to mobilize manpower for you from the mainland, the Northeast and even other places!

Faced with the help offered by Doiyuan, the disheartened Ito was moved.

Human beings have never been a species that easily admits defeat. Ito admits that he is not as good as Zhang Shihao, but at the same time he believes that the reason for this situation is largely because the Shanghai spy agency is rotten!

Okamoto Heiji could easily command the Shanghai secret service - if he wasn't rotten to the core, who would Okamoto Heiji be, a mere businessman, to command a secret service?!
So he accepted the help from Feiyuan.

It is precisely because of this card in his hand that Ito dares to use the entire Ito Agency to confront the mastermind behind the smuggling network.

It seemed that he was tied down by this matter, but in fact, a large number of Japanese spies, after hiding their identities, were active in the entire Japanese-occupied area according to Ito's command - note, the entire Japanese-occupied area.

Because Ito was the first person to discover the problem with the Sinopec rolls.

When he first took office, the Zhongchu Currency Rolls were in the preparation and issuance stage, and he secretly participated in Japan's counterfeit currency war against China. Ito, who had a deep understanding of his opponent, knew that Zhang Shihao would definitely retaliate in kind, so he had been monitoring the Zhongchu Currency Rolls from the beginning. Although no counterfeit currency had appeared for more than half a year, he was convinced that Zhang Shihao would definitely fight back with counterfeit currency.

It was precisely because of this persistence that he noticed the problem with the Central Reserve Bank's banknotes immediately. The only thing he didn't expect was that the counterfeit banknotes produced by the Military Control Commission were exactly the same as the real ones!
But precisely because it was exactly the same as the real currency, he missed the first opportunity of the Military Control Commission's "shipment", resulting in only biting the Military Control Commission's tail - as for Shanghai, as expected, he didn't even see its shadow, let alone its tail.

In view of this, Ito secretly promoted the issuance of the new version of the Central Reserve Bank of the Wang Puppet Regime, waiting for the arrival of the second wave of counterfeit currency from the Military Control Commission. To this end, he forcefully suppressed the intention of spy agencies in many places to crack down on these channels.

Facts have proved that his acting deceived his opponents, who did not even notice the emergence of a new force. When the second wave of counterfeit money from the Military Control Commission began to ship out, Ito received feedback from various places:

Most of the Military Control Commission’s district stations still use the previous channels.

The only regret is that Shanghai is still extremely cautious, and even with such a layout, he could only barely catch a glimpse of the situation.

With his meticulous planning, most of the Military Control Commissions in other places took the bait, but as expected, the gains in Shanghai were minimal - which was still a shame, so he chose to target the traitor in the financial sector, and through Zhou Fohai, he secretly arrested the suspect under the pretext of arranging a business trip, hoping to use this traitor to deal a heavy blow to the Military Control Commission in Shanghai.

But I didn't expect that just after we secretly arrested the suspicious person, the Military Control Commission actually heard the news and showed signs of evacuation. 】

Kato Jiro, who was secretly transferred to Shanghai to serve as Ito's deputy, saw that Ito was always in deep thought, so he said:

"Ito-kun, how about we just let them evacuate?"

The reason why Kato made such a suggestion was to make his opponent misjudge his own strength - he attached great importance to Zhang Shihao as his opponent, so he would rather temporarily give up the meat at his mouth and maintain his own secrets, and then look for an opportunity to kill him with one blow.

But this sentence seemed to be a blow to Ito.

Don’t be greedy, don’t be greedy, don’t be greedy!!!
This is something he has been emphasizing to himself since he resumed his position: facing Zhang Shihao, he must avoid being greedy.

He flatly refused: "No!"

Then he softened his tone and said, "Kato-kun, I know you take Zhang Shihao very seriously, but please believe me, even if you take him ten times as seriously as you do, you are probably underestimating him."

"As long as we miss an opportunity and show a little flaw, Zhang Shihao will be able to smell it and will not be fooled like a cunning fox - no, not only will he not be fooled, he will take advantage of the opportunity and plot against us severely."

"To deal with him, only what you eat and digest is real. Everything else is fake. Even if you think you have eaten it, it is still fake!"

Listening to Ito's ramblings, Kato didn't laugh at all. After Ito finished speaking, Kato said seriously:
"I understand. I will immediately convey the advice to all places to close the net immediately."

"Well - and also, find out how the news leaked. Even though we may not be able to find it, it is still a clue."

"Yes."

Ito originally planned to take this opportunity to deal a heavy blow to the Military Intelligence Bureau, because the Military Intelligence Bureau had too big an appetite, and the success of the first use of counterfeit money made them addicted, and the fact that they were not "caught" made them feel inflated - with many factors entangled together, Ito was confident that as long as he closed the net on a large scale at the same time, any Military Intelligence Bureau station that used counterfeit money would suffer a fatal blow.

But the reality is never as smooth as planned. When he found that the Military Control Commission showed signs of withdrawal, he had to close the net immediately.

In the past, he would probably rather let the duck at his fingertips fly away than to protect the trump card in his hand, but now, he won't do that.

As Ito closed the net, Japanese spy agencies across the occupied areas began to take action simultaneously.

……

Shanghai.

Ming family.

Faced with the uninvited guest who suddenly came to his door, Minglou couldn't help but frown.

He originally planned to ask Mingcheng to go out to guard, but Zhang Anping waved his hand: "No need."

"problem occurs?"

Zhang Anping nodded, then sighed and said, "You have to evacuate." Minglou was stunned: "I'm exposed?"

Minglou was his comrade, so Zhang Anping did not hide it and said directly: "I have been tricked by the Japanese. I have a very important card that needs to be protected. I have to inconvenience you."

Minglou and Mingcheng looked at Zhang Anping in surprise.

A very important card?
Need his exposure to cover up? !
The two brothers gasped at the same time, what an important card this must be!
You know, Ming Lou is now a popular person around Zhou Fohai, the closest to...

"Is it him?!" Minglou was shocked after he reacted.

Although Minglou didn't say the name, Zhang Anping nodded.

"How could he..." Minglou did not say the word "could". The guys in front of him were his comrades. Wouldn't it be reasonable for the notorious Zhou Fohai to be an insider planted by the National Government?
"He's not." Zhang Anping shook his head again: "It's just that I found his weakness and persuaded him to rebel."

Seeing that Zhang Anping didn't say anything, Ming Lou stopped asking and said after a moment of silence:
“When do I evacuate?”

"Now."

"I'll dismiss everyone at home and leave - what are my plans next?"

"It's no longer suitable for you to stay behind enemy lines. Either go to Chongqing or join the Zhongjiu Army. Which one do you choose?"

Minglou thought for a moment and said, "I'll go to Chongqing."

Seeing Ming Lou make this choice, Zhang Anping said, "After you go to Chongqing, don't get involved with Mao Renfeng. But I estimate that it won't be long before he comes to you and tells you the cause of Comrade Ming Jing's death. Do you know what to do?"

Mao Renfeng?

"I know."

"In addition, I will arrange for Mingtai to go to Chongqing with you two. Once there, you must use my name to try to get Mingtai to go undercover as a spy in the underground party. Once successful, you must have our comrades secretly arrest Mingtai."

Minglou and Mingcheng, who had been pretending that they didn't exist, looked at Zhang Anping in confusion.

It was obvious that they didn't understand Zhang Anping's arrangement at all.

There are three brothers in their family - no, they are four people, but they are all real underground party members!
Let Mingtai go undercover as a spy against his own comrades? And then let him be arrested? What is the purpose of this?
But since Zhang Anping didn't say anything, he didn't ask any more questions. He just nodded and said, "No problem. I'll see to the arrangements."

Zhang Anping finished what he wanted to say, and stood up to leave, but when he reached the door, he stopped and turned around and said:

"After we go to Chongqing, the situation will become more complicated. You two... take care!"

"Well, take care of yourself too."

Zhang Anping nodded slightly and left.

After leaving the Ming family, Zhang Anping couldn't help but look back again, thinking:

Xiao Ming, next time when brothers fight each other, you three better put in your best efforts!

He has the "record" of assassinating Ming Jing, so he is a natural rival of Ming Lou. Anyone who wants to deal with him in the future must be on the same front with Ming Lou.

Humph, if you want to be my opponent, Zhang Shihao, then I will let you feel the despair of the Japanese.

……

After leaving the Ming family, Zhang Anping secretly went to the Beijing-Shanghai area command post.

Xu Tian, ​​the stationmaster of Shanghai Station, had been waiting here for a long time. When he saw Zhang Anping, he reported, "Everyone has been evacuated."

His answer was simple, but the meaning was very clear and there was no mistake.

After Zhang Anping nodded, he took Xu Tian directly to find Wang Tianfeng.

Wang Tianfeng is still the deputy mayor of the Beijing-Shanghai District - Zhang Anping is reluctant to hand him over to Old Dai, but it is not that Old Dai insists on keeping Wang Tianfeng in the Beijing-Shanghai District as a thorn in the side.

"Except for Suzhou, there is still no news. All other stations have reported back and have evacuated in time." Wang Tianfeng said:
"Our losses are not small. Almost all the coins we distributed have not been circulated. Although they are hidden on the spot, they should be found."

"It's just a pile of waste paper. Just throw it away. As long as the person is fine, that's good." Zhang Anping waved his hand nonchalantly, "Continue to pay attention to the situation in Suzhou."

Except for Suzhou Station which has not responded yet, the other station groups in the Beijing-Shanghai area obviously carried out Zhang Anping's hasty order faithfully at the first opportunity.

It can be said that Zhang Anping can finally put his mind at ease.

To put it cruelly, compared with the damage done to the entire Beijing-Shanghai area, even if something happened in Suzhou, it would not be a big problem.

But it turned out that Zhang Anping took it for granted, or rather, he underestimated the enemy's ambition and appetite.

The next day, as the messages came in one after another, Zhang Anping's face became increasingly gloomy.

He underestimated human greed!
Overnight, at least 18 stations of the Military Intelligence Bureau suffered heavy losses from the Japanese military's secret services and gendarmerie, and several stations lost at least one intelligence group.

Just looking at the current casualties, the number of casualties or captured exceeded 500.

The only ones that suffered no losses were the Beijing-Shanghai and Henan districts. Apart from those, other district station groups all suffered losses to varying degrees.

In fact, such losses could have been completely avoided - they had enough time to evacuate!
But, in the end, I still can't bear to do it.

To withdraw means to abandon the huge amount of Central Bank notes in hand, and since the Central Bank notes are "currency", it is too difficult to abandon such a huge amount of money.

It was this greed that made them miss the last chance to evacuate, and eventually allowed the Japanese to capture and kill more than 500 people in a unified action!

“What a big chess game!”

Zhang Anping's fists were clenched so hard that they made a clattering sound. Wang Tianfeng and Xu Tian, ​​who had not slept all night, also had heavy expressions.

Neither of them was stupid. Judging from the fact that Zhang Anping ordered the evacuation of any units involved in the use of the "Military Control Commission's version of the real Central Reserve Banknotes", the Japanese must have been playing a big game.

But I didn't expect that this chess game would be so big.

"That is to say, the Japanese discovered our actions when the first wave of counterfeit banknotes were used, but they did not act immediately. Even during the large-scale crackdown on counterfeit banknotes not long ago, the Japanese did not take any action. Are they just waiting for us to reactivate the channels for use?"

"The entire occupied area is a chessboard... Who on earth has the ability to do such a big thing?"

Wang Tianfeng was very confused. Who could unify the command of the Japanese military's secret agencies and gendarmerie in various places?

If it is just one place, it is not difficult to do this.

But it is not easy to coordinate and enforce orders in such a large area! (End of this chapter)
