Kingsman Agent in Film and Television

Sister Qian was in a state of confusion when she received the news of the accident.

As an old underground veteran, she naturally would not hold out hope that the arrested comrades would not confess - confession does not mean surrender or betrayal, because in the face of inhumane torture, human instinct is greater than faith and will.

Although the real purpose of the two sides' cooperation was not revealed to the arrested comrades, once the Japanese learned of the information that the two sides were about to join forces, they would certainly be alert, and it would be difficult to set up the situation in Anping at that time.

"Comrade Chongwen, what should we do next?" Yuan Nong was also a little at a loss. He had always emphasized that the Military Control Commission could not be trusted, but he did not expect that problems would arise with his comrades before the connection was even made.

After thinking for a long time, Sister Qian made a decision: "Let's meet the Military Control Commission first."

"Then this matter..." Yuan Nong gritted his teeth and said, "Let's just not talk about it. I believe in Comrade Yuzhe's beliefs and will."

Sister Qian shook her head: "Comrade Yuan Nong, the basis of our cooperation is honesty and equality. If something goes wrong, we must explain it, remedy it if necessary, and bear the cost if necessary - we Communists must seek truth from facts."

Sister Qian said this with such finality that Yuan Nong blushed and said, "Comrade Chongwen, I'm mainly worried that the Military Control Commission will take advantage of this to make a fuss."

"It was their idea to cooperate. If the alliance fails for this reason, then there is no point in having such an alliance!"

After hearing this, Yuan Nong couldn't help but say with shame: "Comrade Chongwen, you are right, I am too self-centered."

Sister Qian waved her hands and did not blame Yuan Nong.

The Kuomintang and the Communist Party were reunited because of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, but in the years before that, the deep-rooted hatred between the two sides was too much and too deep.

From the Nanchang Uprising in 27 to the ten years when the Red Army was reorganized into the Eighth Route Army and the New Fourth Army, too much blood was shed on the life-and-death frontal battlefield and on the treacherous intelligence battlefield.

There are many people who cannot let go of hatred, but no matter how hard they try, the anti-Japanese national united front of cooperation between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party cannot be affected by this hatred - this is also the reason why our party finally chose to use war to promote peace in the face of the Kuomintang diehards' repeated provocations of conflicts.

She could accept Yuan Nong's prejudice, but as long as national affairs were the priority and the prejudice would not affect future cooperation, she could accept it.

This is also the reason why she brought Yuan Nong with her.

Facts have proved that although Comrade Yuan Nong was full of vigilance and prejudice against the Kuomintang, up to now he had not made any mistakes due to his prejudice and vigilance.

In the words of Zhang Anping: Faced with an ally who is always willing to stab us in the back, we must have comrades like Yuan Nong who are vigilant about our "neighbors".

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Sister Qian brought Yuan Nong and another comrade from the S Committee to the agreed place.

There was a disagreement between the two sides regarding the location for the meeting. Wang Tianfeng, a representative of the Military Control Commission, said that it could be held in a secret base of the Military Control Commission - the last thing the Military Control Commission lacked was deeply hidden secret bases.

But the underground party opposed it, not just for the sake of opposing it, but because they believed that the Military Control Commission was deliberately trying to gain the right to speak. The alliance between the two sides was equal, and the underground party did not dare to trust the Military Control Commission unconditionally, so they believed that the ideal model of cooperation was equal negotiation, and therefore were unwilling to give the right to speak to the Military Control Commission.

Therefore, a compromise solution was proposed in the selection of the docking location:

The underground party provided multiple alternative locations, which were then selected by the Military Control Commission.

Wang Tianfeng agreed to the underground party's request and chose the current meeting place from the locations provided by the underground party.

Yuan Nong thought that the Military Control Commission would put on airs and demonstrate by being late, but he didn't expect that both parties arrived at the Cantonese restaurant at the same time.

After seeing Zhang Shihao leading the group, Yuan Nong couldn't help but snort:
This bastard!
Zhang Anping glanced at Yuan Nong with a half-smile, and thought to himself: Uncle Yuan, you are just like a father-in-law looking at his son-in-law, you just can't stand the way he looks!

His wife Zeng Moyi almost grew up under Yuan Nong's care. It is no exaggeration to say that Yuan Nong is his father-in-law. However, Yuan Nong has never had the slightest good impression of him. He never gave him a good face when they met before at the guerrilla base. He even hated his "son-in-law" behind his back.

Sister Qian gave Yuan Nong a warning look, then stepped forward and pretended to shake hands with Zhang Anping:

"Hello, District Chief Zhang, I am Qian Zhongwen, a representative of the Chinese Communist Party."

Zhang Anping paused for a moment before extending his hand: "Zhang Shihao."

Sister Qian introduced the two people around her: "This is Yuan Nong from the Municipal Party Committee, and this is Yao Xiuwen from the Jiangsu S Committee."

Zhang Anping introduced two people around him:

"Wang Tianfeng, Xu Tian."

After the customary introductions, the six of them sat down. Just as Zhang Anping was about to speak, Sister Qian spoke first:
"I'm sorry, something happened here that may affect our future cooperation - I think it's necessary to make this matter clear first."

Wang Tianfeng, who was used to a calm state of mind, frowned, thinking that it was an excuse from the underground party. However, Zhang Anping made a gesture of invitation, indicating that Sister Qian should speak first.

"We have a courier who was secretly arrested by the Japanese. It was around yesterday afternoon. This morning, a comrade who was in contact with him was secretly arrested by the Japanese. If our people hadn't discovered the situation, we would still be kept in the dark about this matter."

"The arrested comrade is an important member of the municipal party committee. He knew about our upcoming alliance."

After Sister Qian finished speaking, she waited for Zhang Anping's reply - she should have discussed this matter with Zhang Anping after their secret meeting, but she didn't have time.

After she finished speaking, Yuan Nong couldn't help but clench his hands under the table, ready to rant after being reprimanded by the Military Control Commission.

But surprisingly, Zhang Anping said after a moment of silence:
"I need to take over your command for this alliance."

Sister Qian looked at Zhang Anping in astonishment as he had a calm face. For the first time, she met Zhang Shihao, the famous spy, as an opponent.

"Impossible! Since it's a cooperation, it must be equal!" Yuan Nong said sharply: "Besides, we don't trust you!"

Sister Qian also said: "District Chief Zhang, our bottom line is joint command."

Of course, this is not the real bottom line.

Zhang Anping said calmly: “Two things – after I accept it, I can solve the current troubles.

The second thing is that this place is a secret base of our military control."

After these words were spoken, Sister Qian and the other three were completely stunned.

Sister Qian’s confusion is not just pretend.

Even Wang Tianfeng, who chose this place, looked confused, but Xu Tian, ​​on the contrary, was not surprised at all.

He didn't know that this was the base of the Military Control Commission, but he didn't think it was outrageous.

Zhang Anping did not give any explanation, but just looked at the underground party representative calmly. Sister Qian said after a moment of silence:
"Can you tell me what went wrong?"

The underground party had previously provided several docking locations, and Wang Tianfeng randomly chose this one - this is a fact, there is no trick.

"Coincidence, although I don't believe in coincidences." Zhang Anping stood up and walked to the wall. He suddenly punched the decorative wooden board, revealing the painted copper pipes inside. Judging from the color of the paint on the copper pipes, it was obviously not newly installed.

As everyone was stunned, he continued:
"I know you are very prejudiced against me, but we are of the same mind in dealing with the Japanese."

"Just like the secret meetings you held here, the news has never been leaked."

Sister Qian and the other three haven't recovered yet. The impact of this scene was just too great.

Copper tube - a very common metal object, but ever since the Japanese and the Central Bureau of Investigation discovered that someone was using copper tubes to eavesdrop on their own territory, it has become an object that all agents are wary of.

Yuan Nong clenched his fists. He was the one who provided this location. He didn't expect...

Sister Qian was the first to come to her senses and said in a serious tone:
"Director Zhang, I feel your sincerity. I will give you an answer before 10 o'clock tonight. How about that?"

"Okay—" Zhang Anping nodded: "You won't regret making the right decision."

"So, let's talk about cooperation?"

"Well, but I need to make sure you promise one thing. You must ensure that the insider will not encounter any problems with the content of the cooperation. I don't want to be arrested for leaking information to happen again."

Zhang Anping's expression turned grim. "I hope you can understand one thing: the reason I'm talking to you about cooperation is for the greater good of the war. If you can let me put aside my prejudice and cooperate with you, then what I'm after is definitely not a small thing."

"So, if something like this happens again, and my cooperation ends, I will retaliate against you in any way I can!"

Yuan Nong stood up angrily: "Zhang Shihao, are you threatening us? We Communists are never afraid of threats!"

"Mr. Yuan - I'd better call you Mr. Bai. My respect for you is limited. Mr. Bai, do you think that you can stand here now because of your rich experience in fighting behind enemy lines?"

Zhang Anping sneered, "No! That's because I, Zhang Shihao, don't want to stab our allies in the back when we are united against the outside world. Mr. Bai, you may not know that below your residence on Huakang Road is an observation post of our military control."

The words Yuan Nong had prepared for Zhang Anping's first sentence suddenly got stuck in his throat and couldn't come out.

Sister Qian motioned Yuan Nong to sit down and said in a deep voice: "District Chief Zhang, let me repeat, I have already felt your sincerity, please get down to business."

Zhang Anping glanced at Yuan Nong indifferently, and only after he was sure that Yuan Nong had "turned off the fire" did he talk about the purpose of the cooperation. As he spoke, Yuan Nong and Yao Xiuwen's expressions were no longer able to be described as shocked. On the contrary, Sister Qian remained calm, but her shock could still be seen from the blue veins on her hands that occasionally popped up.

After Zhang Anping explained his purpose, he softened his tone and said, "This cooperation cannot afford any mistakes. I can guarantee that I will never use conspiracy or trickery to harm you during the cooperation, but you must trust me unconditionally. This is the basis and prerequisite for this cooperation."

"I hope you can understand."

Sister Qian was silent for a long time before she said, "I will give District Chief Zhang an answer at ten o'clock tonight."

Zhang Anping said: "Then I will wait for good news - you can choose the place for our next meeting."

"New Asia Hotel Room 406?"

"it is good."

Zhang Anping stood up and turned to leave without any hesitation.

After Zhang Anping left, Yuan Nong stammered and wanted to speak, but was stopped by Sister Qian.

The three of them left here and went back to a secret base prepared for them by the Municipal Party Committee. Yuan Nong could no longer hold back and said:
"Comrade Chongwen, I request that the organization investigate me."

Sister Qian knew what Yuan Nong meant - one of the locations he provided was chosen by the Military Control Commission as the docking location, and it turned out to be a secret base of the Military Control Commission;

The place where he lived was above the observation post of the Military Control Commission. These behaviors were suspicious no matter how you looked at them. Yuan Nong was anxious to ask the organization to investigate him to prove his innocence, but there was nothing he could do.

She shook her head:

"We'll talk about this later. If it was really because of you, Zhang Shihao would definitely not have revealed it at this time. I think it must be a coincidence."

Sister Qian was not trying to comfort Yuan Nong, but she trusted Zhang Anping.

Although she was very confused, she still couldn't understand why she chose a secret base of the Military Control Commission.

And Zhang Anping never reported this matter.

But she didn't think there would be any problem with Zhang Anping.

"Xiu Wen, Yuan Nong, wait for my news here for now. I need to meet with my superiors."

"it is good."

……

After dealing with the aftermath of the Cantonese restaurant, Zhang Anping and his party returned to their base.

Then Xu Tian and Wang Tianfeng entered the "competition" to see who could hold it longer.

But the result should be that Xu Tian won, because Wang Tianfeng came to ask Zhang Anping:

"Is this really our base?"

Zhang Anping rolled his eyes: "Fake - is there such a coincidence?"

"Then..." Wang Tianfeng was confused and asked, "What's going on?"

"Is it possible that I deliberately sent someone to install it this morning?"

Wang Tianfeng looked at Zhang Anping speechlessly. Is this really the case?
But he soon realized that this matter was worth doing as it could "play tricks on others".

"Aren't you afraid that this is a secret base over there?"

Zhang Anping laughed: "They don't have the financial resources."

……

Sister Qian met with her superior in secret, because this was the first time she had contact with the Military Control Commission. Two comrades from the Municipal Party Committee and the S Committee were waiting for her news with her superior.

The superiors naturally knew the situation, but the comrades in the Municipal Party Committee and the S Committee were not aware, so Sister Qian pretended to be reporting for the first time and informed the three of them of the situation. After relaying Zhang Anping’s request, she focused on the “problem” of the site selection for the docking station.

As a result, the superior and the two comrades couldn't help laughing.

Sister Qian was confused, and the comrade from the Municipal Party Committee smiled and said:
"Comrade Chongwen, Zhang Shihao really is good at playing tricks!"

He talked about an experience he had in the morning - the place where their superiors met them was opposite the docking site, and they happened to see a "magical" scene:
Several people came to the restaurant stealthily, temporarily stopped the waiter on the pretext of a private conversation, and then came to the agreed private room, and after a series of crackling operations, they installed the copper pipe into the wall.

"We initially thought they were the Japanese, but after a quiet inspection we discovered they had only secretly installed a useless copper pipe. We never understood what they were doing, but now we understand that they were playing tricks on us!"

The comrades from the municipal party committee laughed a little inappropriately.

In Yun Jubo's cunning intelligence work, such a ridiculous operation suddenly appeared, which was indeed quite... funny.

Sister Qian was also at a loss whether to laugh or cry. So this is what was going on.

"This shows that Comrade Yuan Nong's case was also a coincidence - Zhang Shihao went to great lengths to figure this out, which shows that he really has his eyes on the command this time."

The superior laughed and said, "If he wants it, give it to him! To be honest, if you want to achieve the goal he mentioned, the operation must be complicated. I don't think many people can do it except him."

Comrades from the Municipal Party Committee and the S Committee had no objection to the words of their superiors, as Zhang Shihao's abilities were recognized by everyone.

"It's just, can we trust him?"

"What if he turns on us after this?"

In response to the doubts raised by the two comrades, the superior thought for a moment and said, "After this, we will definitely withdraw most of our forces from Shanghai. I think he is also aware of this, so he is sure that we will cooperate, right?"

Sister Qian nodded in agreement: "That should be the case."

The other two comrades also agreed.

The superior said, "Then I agree. Comrade Chongwen, I'll have to trouble you to make a trip."

"Yes, no problem - Commander, during this period, I will stay with him and be responsible for the connection work."

……

Ito Agency.

"Chief, the clues the other party confessed to have come to nothing."

Kato's report made Ito frown: "Has this been discovered?"

It was reasonable that the efforts to deal with the Military Control Commission would fail, but I didn't expect that the efforts to deal with the underground party would also fail!
"That's right. The time they evacuated was almost the same as the time we captured Duan Yuzhe. They must have been discovered when we were arresting Duan Yuzhe."

"It's okay. Catching a high-ranking member of the underground party's S Committee is an unexpected gain. By the way, Kato, what do you think of Duan Yuzhe's explanation of the Military Control Commission seeking an alliance with the underground party?"

Hearing Ito's question, Kato pondered and said, "Director, according to Zhang Shihao's behavior, the Military Control Commission has suffered such a big loss from us, he must want revenge, so I guess this time the Military Control Commission is looking for the underground party to cooperate, probably to brew a big revenge action."

"Kato-kun and I agree." Ito nodded slightly and sighed, "The tree wants to be still but the wind does not stop!"

Kato said: "Chief, we should have made plans early."

"Yes, we should plan ahead - but where do you think we should start?"

This question stumped Kato.

"I can't imagine what he would do!" Ito sighed with sadness, thought for a while, and said:

"Well, let's test the waters first."

"Throwing a stone to test the water?"

"Spread the word that Zhang Shihao intends to cooperate with the CCP privately. Oh, and spread the word about Duan Yuzhe. We must say that we have to thank the Military Control Commission for catching Duan Yuzhe."

After thinking about it for a while, Kato praised: "Chief, it's great, really great!" (End of this chapter)
