Kingsman Agent in Film and Television

12 Month 8 Day!
After hearing Zhang Anping confirm the time, everyone breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

The most difficult thing about this uprising was how to synchronize it with the Japanese sneak attack on the US military - they were causing trouble in the concession, and if they could not synchronize it with the Japanese, then legally speaking, they would be provoking the great powers.

Only after the Japanese took action against the US military were their actions in the concession recognized.

To grasp the timing is like walking on a tightrope. If Zhang Anping had not been confident that he could find the time for the Japanese army's sneak attack, neither Lao Wang nor Sister Qian would support this matter.

Fortunately, everything is now a thing of the past.

The time is set, let’s get started!

After Xu Baichuan calmed down, he couldn't help but say, "It's just that the time... is a bit tight!"

"How can you take it easy when you are snatching food from a tiger's mouth?" Zhang Anping asked back, and then he glanced at everyone and said in a deep voice:
"In the next few days, we have two things to do."

As he spoke, Zhang Anping pointed his finger:

"The first thing is to speed up the preparations - I hope all the preparations will be completed before 12 noon on December 7."

Taking advantage of Zhang Anping's pause, Sister Qian spoke up:

"Since you have decided to start the uprising on the 8th, why do you have to leave so much time? And if you rush it, it will be easier for the Japanese to notice it."

Although the preparatory work has been ongoing, the efficiency has actually been very slow for the sake of confidentiality. If the speed is suddenly accelerated now, it will inevitably lead to the news leaking out.

"Let it leak out, it's not a big deal."

Zhang Anping waved his hand, then lowered his second finger:
"The second thing is that I need to plan a raid on the Shanghai Garrison Command. This takes priority over the final preparations."

Raid the garrison headquarters?
Everyone pondered the possibilities, but no one could think of a plan with a success rate higher than 10%.

"Anping, what do you think?" Xu Baichuan asked in a serious tone, "It goes without saying that the Japanese attach great importance to the Security Command. It may not be that easy to launch a surprise attack. Besides, can you guarantee that all the big and small fish will stay inside during the raid? Unless it is during the day - but it may be even more difficult to do it during the day!"

"I know," Zhang Anping said calmly, "but the Japanese don't know!"

The Japanese don’t know?

Wang Tianfeng said: "A cover?!"

Hearing these familiar words, everyone at the meeting couldn't help but laugh.

"We have done so much during this period, the Japanese are definitely on guard." Zhang Anping shrugged: "Next we must increase our preparations. The Japanese devils are not stupid, they will definitely find clues from the slightest clues."

“Instead of leaving them guessing, I give them a clear goal.”

You really have a kind heart!

This sentence successfully made Yuan Nong couldn't help but complain in his heart, and then he asked:

"The Japanese won't be fooled so easily, right?"

During this period of time, he witnessed with his own eyes that the Japanese were fooled every now and then and the tricks were different. Under such circumstances, how could the Japanese easily believe that they would attack the security headquarters?
The Japanese are not stupid. They must have considered the feasibility of the Military Control Commission attacking the headquarters.

Yuan Nong added: "If the Japanese don't fall for it, our layout in the concession will be placed under their noses, and the loss will outweigh the gain."

If the cover does not work, it will allow the opponent to see the real intention.

Yuan Nong's words attracted the attention of others, but no one directly questioned Zhang Anping. Instead, they waited for Zhang Anping's explanation.

Zhang Anping rarely agreed with Yuan Nong's words:
"you are right."

Yuan Nong couldn't help but feel a strange feeling at the sudden recognition, but before he could figure out what the feeling was, Zhang Anping showed off with one sentence.

"But I was the one who planned it."

These few light words made the six people present look complicated.

This was Zhang Anping's plan. If the Japanese could really see through it so easily, they would be weak first - if Zhang Shihao's plan was so easy to break, Fujita Yoshimasa, Kiuchi Kagesa, Kagesa Tadaaki, Matsumuro Yoshitaka and Takeda Yoshihei would not be starving now.

It was not as if Ito was vomiting blood and had to be hospitalized;
Dongye will not become a huge joke!

With so many complex situations ahead of us, how could we possibly make a bad move next?
"I have already made arrangements at the Army Hotel. I think the Japanese are smart and will definitely find my 'real' target. The concession will not be their focus."

Everyone knew that there was a big fish in the Army Hotel. When they heard that Zhang Anping had made arrangements there, they immediately realized Zhang Anping's three-fold plan.

It's amazing that he used the real purpose as the first layer of "cover-up". Because it was too obvious, it would be easily overlooked.

"In addition, we were the ones who took the initiative to show the chess pieces in the concession, which will actually allow them to eliminate the biggest possibility!"

Right!
Zhang Anping’s previous “unspeakable” has now come true!

Everyone present was thinking about the arrangements made by Zhang Anping and nodded slowly.

……

The underground party traitor Duan Yuzhe appeared in front of Higashino Yita with restraint.

Like most Japanese officers, Dongye showed his amiable side when facing a traitor who was of use to him. He stood up and gestured for him to sit down:
"Mr. Duan, please take a seat."

Duan Yuzhe sat down cautiously and said carefully, "Mr. Dongye, who are you looking for?"

Dongye asked directly:

"Mr. Duan, what do you think of the alliance between the Military Control Commission and the underground party?"

Duan Yuzhe was startled, and his butt, which was barely hanging on the chair, swayed, and he knelt on the ground:

"Director, I have confessed everything I know. I have absolutely nothing to hide."

Dong Ye waved his hand and said, "Mr. Duan, I know you have confessed everything. I am asking you, what do you think the underground party and the Military Control Commission are working together for?"

Duan Yuzhe secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then said cautiously: "I really don't know, but before, my comrades Z and those underground party members all thought that this was a conspiracy of the Military Control Commission."

"But this is not a conspiracy. On the contrary, the Military Control Commission has easily formed an alliance with the underground party." Dong Ye frowned. Seeing Duan Yuzhe still kneeling on the ground, a hint of disgust flashed in his eyes, but then he walked over with a warm face and helped him up and let him sit down:

"Mr. Duan, why did you think that the Military Control Commission's alliance with the underground party was a conspiracy?"

"Is such that……"

Duan Yuzhe recounted his two experiences of cooperating with the Shanghai Military Control Commission.

The first time the underground party cooperated with the Shanghai Military Control Commission was for counterfeit money, but if the underground party had not been one step ahead, they would have been tricked by the Military Control Commission.

The second time was before the Southern Anhui Incident - in the end, due to the betrayal of the Military Control Commission, the New Fourth Army was unable to support itself and lost a large amount of captured equipment.

After talking about these two experiences of cooperation, Duan Yuzhe also recounted Zhang Shihao’s malice towards the underground party.

He talked about a lot of things like constantly adding sand in the sand and backstabbing.

Dongye listened very carefully. When Duan Yuzhe finally finished speaking, facing Duan Yuzhe's expectant eyes, Dongye's expression turned cold: "You can go out now."

Duan Yuzhe bravely asked: "Chief, can I serve the Imperial Army..."

Dong Manman interrupted Duan Yuzhe rudely: "Wait a minute, I'll arrange for you when there's a vacancy."

Seeing that Duan Yuzhe was still trying to pester him, Dong Ye waved his hand, and his secretary appeared in front of Duan Yuzhe. Facing the secretary's cold eyes, Duan Yuzhe swallowed and quickly stood up.

Snapped

As soon as I walked out, a crisp slap sounded outside.

Dongye pretended not to hear anything and started thinking about what Duan Yuzhe had said.

The underground party was full of vigilance against Zhang Shihao, so why was the situation resolved so easily?
Dongye pondered this question, making various assumptions over and over again.

In the end, he wrote down two hypotheses separately:

Either, it is a false superficial cooperation;
Or, the two parties cooperate due to huge interests.

Zhang Shihao cooperated with the underground party this time, one of the purposes was to relocate the factories in the concession. In this regard, the two sides had common interests, and the cooperation went very smoothly. However, Zhang Shihao had always been malicious towards the underground party, so would he betray the underground party this time?
If he was going to trick someone, it meant that his guess was very reasonable - assassinating a general of the empire would be an unprecedented victory for both the underground party and the Military Control Commission, so the two would continue to cooperate.

If Zhang Shihao had ill intentions towards the underground party, there would inevitably be a conspiracy to consume the underground party during this cooperation.

It can only be an open conspiracy, because only an open conspiracy can make the underground party members be deceived willingly.

So, what is the conspiracy?

Dongye looked at one piece of intelligence after another, outlining Zhang Anping's plan in his mind.

……

Doiyuan was also watching the situation in Shanghai.

The plan formulated by the headquarters was made recently - because of the conflicts between the Japanese navy and the army, Doihara only knew an approximate time and had no idea when the damn navy idiot would take action.

At this time, seeing that there was an unexpected armed force in the concession, and the idiot Dongye ignored it, Dobiyuan decided to help Dongye.

Under his arrangement, officials from the Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs approached the Municipal Council.

Deal with the factory protection team!
To this end, they also took out the charter of the concession and demanded that the concession side control this armed force.

The Municipal Council was amused by the Japanese's inconsistency - this was clearly a factory protection team that was established after the concession was forced to compromise due to pressure from you Japanese. From its establishment to its arming, it was all thanks to you Japanese. Now that you have discovered that it has aided the enemy, you come here to make a fuss?

Are you still pretending to apologize for your previous unreasonable behavior?

The Municipal Council did not want to pay any attention, but unexpectedly, the Japanese officials turned around and visited the board members one by one. With the unanimous consent of the British directors, they passed a resolution to send troops to disarm the factory protection team.

The news reached Zhang Anping immediately.

"What? The British are sending troops?!"

Faced with this news, everyone felt extremely troubled. It was not even time to launch the operation yet, and the British suddenly came out to make trouble. Didn't this seriously disrupt the plan?
Xu Baichuan gritted his teeth and said, "How about... we start first?!"

He led his troops with ruthlessness.

"No, absolutely not!" Sister Qian retorted without hesitation: "If we do this now, we won't be able to stand up legally!"

The Japanese have not declared war on the Americans, and if they take action now, the crime would be too great.

Although Xu Tian and Lao Wang were tempted, they still supported Sister Qian's opinion.

Xu Baichuan looked at Zhang Anping, waiting for Zhang Anping's decision.

Zhang Anping did not fall into thought as they imagined, but said casually: "According to the British's usual nature, they will definitely ask us to lay down our weapons and ensure the safety of the factory protection team members."

"Unfortunately, with the case of the Eight Hundred Warriors before us, anyone who believes them would be a fool."

"Under the circumstances, it is reasonable for the factory protection team to discuss matters with the British for three or four days, right?"

Very reasonable, extremely reasonable!
Huh?
Saying this without thinking, could it be...

Xu Baichuan nodded involuntarily, and then asked: "Have you thought of this a long time ago?"

Zhang Anping shrugged and did not answer, but Yuan Nong asked: "But if we are held back by the British, what should we do? The factory protection team is the spearhead of the uprising!"

Zhang Anping kept the details of his plan a secret, so no one knew his specific action plan.

That's why Yuan Nong asked this question.

Zhang Anping's answer was consistent with his usual style.

After smiling:
"Secret."

Following Zhang Anping's decision, the factory protection team began a confrontation with the garrison.

As a result, a factory protection team of more than a thousand people were trapped in several factories.

……

East Field Army.

Urgent pieces of information were delivered to Dongye.

From the time Dongye was given the task to deal with the crisis to the present, the total amount of intelligence about the opponents he had obtained was less than in just these two days.

"Is a storm coming?"

Feeling the pressure brought by this information, Dongye couldn't help but murmur.

This is his last chance, he must break through the storm and nail the enemy to death!

Another piece of information was sent urgently. Looking at the content of the information, Dongye's expression became more and more solemn.

[On Dongxinqiao Street, a French soldier at the French Concession sentry post provided information that someone was secretly carrying munitions into the International Settlement.]

"Zhang Shihao, Zhang Shihao, what exactly is your intention in creating this situation?"

"More than a thousand people from the factory protection team are trapped by the concession troops. You are still transporting weapons to the concession. Do you want to fight with the concession troops?"

"Unfortunately, I know the Chinese character too well! You! Don't! Dare!"

In the Battle of Songhu, the Nationalist Army fought to the end and, seeing that Shanghai could no longer be defended, began to retreat.

The retreat was actually quite successful.

But at this moment, they did not withdraw, but turned around and pretended to fight again - the purpose was to show their determination to the League of Nations.

Thus, the originally successful retreat turned into a rout!
How can such a country dare to fight against the great powers?

Dongye never believed it at all, especially the factory protection team was trapped in several empty factories by the garrison troops in the concession!

But Dongye has always had an undetermined doubt:

This cover is too fake. It is obviously fake at first glance. How dare Zhang Shihao use it as a cover?
This doubt was finally explained with the arrival of a piece of intelligence.

The Special High Section has reliable intelligence confirming that many core leaders of the Shanghai underground party have appeared near the garrison headquarters in Hongkou.

To this end, the Special High Section also applied to set up operations around the headquarters in an attempt to capture the underground party.

The arrival of this information explained all of Dongye’s doubts!
[The first cover is the concession! ]

[He tried to use the guise of the concession to "cover up" his plot to establish the Security Command - this was also a guise, an open plot to consume the underground party!]

[The real target is still the Army Hotel! It’s still the general! ]

There is a game within a game!

This is in line with Zhang Shihao's plan and this is in line with Zhang Shihao's temperament!

Dongye breathed a sigh of relief. Although he had guessed early on that the Military Control Commission's target was General Doihara, he was still unable to connect the lines.

This made him feel uneasy all the time, and he kept wondering if he was wrong.

But now he was sure he was right.

"What a fluke!"

"If Duan Yuzhe hadn't described the conflict between the underground party and the Military Control Commission in detail, I might not have been able to connect these lines."

"But now that I'm connected..."

Dongye stood at the window, looking down at the peaceful Shanghai, and whispered softly:

"I'm betting all my honor on this, Zhang Shihao, let's... fight it out!" (End of this chapter)
