Kingsman Agent in Film and Television

Chapter 676 The Third Sign

After all, Old Dai did not brag too much about his lucky star, because he was really wary of his nephew who was always capable of causing trouble.

He was very worried that as soon as he praised him, this brat would cause a lot of trouble.

The last time I provoked someone was Commander Liu, the last time I provoked someone was Master Kong, and the last time I provoked someone was the Central Bureau of Investigation...

Each time it got more exaggerated than the last, he was very worried that next time his nephew would target the Song family or the Chen family, and Dai Chunfeng wouldn't be able to handle it!

Old Dai suppressed his joy and said solemnly, "Tianfeng got the news earlier that the Japanese wanted to have a secret talk with our Military Control Commission. It seems that they are targeting this matter. You will come with me to the attendant's room later and report this matter to the chief attendant."

Zhang Anping nodded.

Reporting to the attendant room was within his expectations.

"Anping, I have something else to do. Since you are here, I will leave it to you to handle—"

Dai Chunfeng stared at Zhang Anping: "Before talking about this, I want to hear your opinion on the current situation!"

this matter?
After a little thought, Zhang Anping guessed the general idea.

He guessed that "this matter" that Old Dai mentioned was most likely related to the organization!
The cooperation between the Americans and the Military Control Commission has been finalized. Zhang Anping's information channels in the United States are no worse than Lao Dai's. Naturally, he already knows that the Americans have decided to provide military aid to the Zhongjiu Army, and this time the military aid includes aid to the New Fourth Army.

This must have touched the nerves of the Kuomintang diehards. It is very likely that Old Dai wanted him to destroy the US military aid.

While his mind was racing, Zhang Anping talked about his views on the current situation.

His view is simple:
"Although the Japanese have achieved fruitful results in their march south, their defeat is already decided!"

"The Japanese today are like the tail of a rabbit, it can't grow any longer!"

This is actually a repetition of an old tune. Zhang Anping has said similar things more than once - but unlike the vast majority of steadfast anti-Japanese fighters of this era, those people believed in this great country, while Zhang Anping had experienced a better time.

"Anping, if Japan is defeated one day," Old Dai stared at Zhang Anping, "What should we do?"

What should we do?

Zhang Anping knew that when Lao Dai mentioned "what we should do", he was referring to the country, not individuals.

"Commander, you are talking about the Communist Party, right?"

Old Dai nodded slightly.

"There must be a battle!"

Zhang Anping answered without hesitation.

"I'm glad you have this understanding." Old Dai said in an admiring tone: "Those who don't plan for eternity are not worth planning for the moment. Although we are still confronting the Japanese on the battlefield, we must prepare for a rainy day!"

"I think this is not a good thing for the Americans to provide military aid to the New Fourth Army!"

"Anping, we cannot allow the Communist Party to grow any stronger. I want to entrust you with the task of destroying US military aid. Do you have the confidence to accomplish this task?"

Zhang Anping did not agree directly, but frowned and said:
"Commander, you know me. I can infiltrate the Communist Party, but I don't want to do something that will hurt my friends and please my enemies in this environment. When Zoke and I went to the guerrilla-controlled area, I did not do my job well and failed to dispel Zoke's intentions, which led to this incident. I am willing to take responsibility."

"However, I do not recommend that the two parties create friction and conflict again under the current circumstances, and I do not want the Kuomintang and the Communist Party to go to war - this will only benefit the Japanese and will also have a bad influence on us by the Americans, which will affect future military aid."

After Zhang Anping finished speaking, he stared at Dai Chunfeng without moving.

Dai Chunfeng narrowed his eyes and looked at Zhang Anping. The air in the room suddenly condensed. It was not until nearly a minute later that Dai Chunfeng spoke:
"What if... we have to do this?"

Zhang Anping said helplessly: "Then we can only do our best."

Dai Chunfeng laughed: "Anping, your behavior just now, to put it mildly, is called sympathy for the Communist Party, to put it more seriously... it is called collusion with the Communist Party."

"Commander, I am just discussing the matter at hand."

"It's just me. If it were someone else, I wouldn't care about your shit and just talk about the facts!" Dai Chunfeng glared at Zhang Anping: "Some things require politics!"

He said meaningfully: "You are used to staying behind enemy lines, and you are used to considering the most appropriate thing to do, but not everything requires the most appropriate choice - politics is the first factor!"

Zhang Anping sneered in his heart, but still showed a look of disapproval on his face.

Of course he would agree with what Old Dai said, but he had established a persona for himself, and this persona was very important to Zhang Anping, so he had to express his own opinions.

But he had to take the matter of destroying the military aid to the New Fourth Army into his own hands - only in this way could things not get out of his control.

His expression of disapproval was naturally intended to show his political immaturity.

Because Wang Tianfeng was present, Old Dai did not give any earnest instructions, but just emphasized:
"I don't care what means you use, I don't want to see American military aid reach the New Fourth Army - is that okay?"

Zhang Anping sighed: "No problem."

Old Dai was not annoyed by Zhang Anping's behavior, but rather felt helpless.

My nephew has a very good idea. He has always practiced the principle of putting the outside first and the inside second - in fact, there is nothing wrong with this, but as he said, when doing some things, you have to consider politics.

The Military Intelligence Bureau is the captain's personal force, and its loyalty is actually to the captain rather than the National Government, which means that the Military Intelligence Bureau must take the captain's will as the first factor.

My nephew is too young and always takes things for granted when it comes to politics.

Even though Dai Chunfeng said Zhang Anping's behavior just now was "to put it seriously, you are collaborating with the Communists" - in fact, Dai Chunfeng didn't think about it in this way at all.

First of all, he knew Zhang Anping too well. All stages of Zhang Anping's growth were under Dai Chunfeng's sight. He didn't think that his nephew would have any connection with the Communist Party.

Secondly, if Zhang Anping was in communism or pro-communist, he would not say these words in front of him.

In his opinion, it was precisely because his nephew had a clear conscience that he could express such opinions with confidence.

But after all, the understanding of politics is too superficial!

Dai Chunfeng glared at Zhang Anping and said, "Tianfeng, you go back first. I'll take Anping to the attendant's room to report on the work."

……

In fact, Dai Chunfeng didn't need to take Zhang Anping to the attendant room at all - as an intelligence chief, preventing new intelligence chiefs from appearing in the master's sight was the basis for ensuring power!

But what Old Dai is now: Dai Chunfeng’s intentions are known to everyone!
It was very obvious that he wanted to help Zhang Anping to a higher position, and he spared no effort to give Zhang Anping the opportunity to come into contact with the chief aide-de-camp.

Zhang Anping's experiences in Suzhou were like legends. When he reported in the attendant's room, he aroused great interest in the chief attendant. After listening patiently, the chief attendant expressed his admiration for this legendary experience and happily said on the spot that he would write it in his diary.

In the words of the Chief Chamberlain:
"It's hard to publicize what the little guy did now, but we can't let people forget it. When it's in the newspapers in the future, we must let people know how the Party's Tiger Guards made such a big name!"

The Chief Chamberlain also stated:

"Some people just can't stand seeing others do well! They can't stand seeing others excel. Think about it, some time ago, the gossipers even criticized Zhang Shihao for losing to Shi Hao. Now think about it, it's really ridiculous! Ridiculous!"

These words made Dai Chunfeng secretly happy. The purpose of bringing Zhang Anping here was, firstly, to show his presence, and secondly, to completely eliminate the grudge in the big boss's heart - but whether there was a grudge or not, there was always a villain who brought this matter to the attention of the chief aide-de-camp.

Now it seems that the effect is remarkable!

Afterwards, the chief aide-de-camp asked Zhang Anping what he thought about blackmailing the Japanese with the fictitious Hell Virus.

Faced with this expected question, Zhang Anping expressed his humble opinion without hesitation:

"It is not easy to use this to threaten the Japanese to make strategic concessions. The Japanese are crazy now and will not make concessions because of this. Moreover, they also know that this is a means of mutual harm. If we dare to use it on them, they will dare to use it on us, so they will not be blackmailed by us."

"I think it would be best to use this to force the Japanese to give up their research on germs." The chief aide-de-camp knew that the Japanese were using Chinese people for human research and germ experiments. After all, the Japanese had secretly conducted germ warfare on the battlefield many times, and the National Army had even formulated a set of corresponding regulations and systems to deal with it.

The future temporary seventh master Chang Naichao said it well:
"The orders of the National Army are made by geniuses, but executed by fools!"

The degree to which the epidemic prevention regulations and systems formulated by various experts are implemented in the national army is in line with this statement.

Going too far again.

Facing Zhang Anping's suggestion, the chief attendant thought for a while and thought that this was a solution, and immediately gave instructions:
Led by the Secretariat, a secret negotiation team was formed by dispatching personnel from various departments to conduct secret negotiations with the Japanese on the issue of the "Hell Virus". The theme of the negotiations was that both sides should stop research on germ weapons.

The Hell Virus was secretly destroyed by Zhang Anping. Currently, there are four people including the chief attendant, so the negotiation team that was established knows the "truth":

The Hell Virus is in our hands, and we have the Japanese at their fingertips! Don't be afraid, let's talk fiercely!

When the meeting was about to end, the chief attendant asked casually:

"The New Fourth Army received military aid from the US military. Do you think it had a big impact on us?"

Dai Chunfeng, who had been entertaining the guests, suddenly became nervous. He was worried that Zhang Anping would say something that would displease the chief aide-de-camp.

Unexpectedly, Zhang Anping said:

"This is my fault. I failed to stop it several times. Please punish me, Mr. Chairman."

"You are not guilty of this matter. On the contrary, you have made contributions. I can see clearly. I am asking you if the New Fourth Army received military aid from the US military, would it have a big impact on us?"

Zhang Anping immediately said, "Deputy Director Dai has authorized me to find ways to stop the military aid."

"Oh? Are you sure?"

Zhang Anping sighed, "Commissioner, to be honest, the initiative in this matter is in the hands of the Americans. I can only do my best and leave the rest to fate."

"Little guy, you are honest. If there is no way to stop the New Fourth Army from receiving military aid from the Americans, will the upgraded New Fourth Army be a threat?"

Zhang Anping said firmly: "I don't think so!"

"why?"

"The Americans' aid is mainly in the form of weapons and ammunition. No matter how much weapons and ammunition they provide, it is actually like giving a man a fish!"

Zhang Anping analyzed: "The more American weapons they receive, the higher their logistics requirements will be. Whether it is the New Fourth Army or the Eighth Route Army, no matter how many people they have, they have no industrial capacity at all."

"If they are fully equipped with American weapons, I think they will be controlled by us!"

“Once their logistics are cut off, the weapons they have will be nothing more than firewood sticks. They are actually worse than now. After all, their weapons are mainly captured from the Japanese and puppet troops, and their ammunition consumption mainly depends on the captured weapons. If they use American weapons, once their logistics are cut off, they won’t even be able to capture the weapons!”

This analysis made the chief attendant smile.

If you put yourself in their shoes, it is indeed true!
"The little guy's point of view is quite unique, but if you think about it, it is indeed true!"

"But it's better to get the Americans to stop providing aid than to block their logistics afterwards, right?"

Zhang Anping naturally agreed.

Zhang Anping looked at the chief attendant with respect, but at this moment he was thinking of one thing:

Do you know the transport captain?
……

On the way back in the car, Dai Chunfeng asked meaningfully, "Now, do you understand?"

Zhang Anping nodded: "I understand."

"Know what to do?"

"Go all out!"

"I wouldn't feel at ease if I handed this matter to others, but I feel at ease if I hand it over to you!" Dai Chunfeng patted Zhang Anping's shoulder, looking as if he was relieved.

Zhang Anping sighed and said, "Uncle, don't worry, I am worried!"

"No confidence?"

"This is different from scheming against the Japanese. I can use any means I want, but this matter involves the Americans after all. The real initiative is in the hands of the Americans. It's difficult to sabotage the aid!"

Zhang Anping sighed and said:
"In fact, the most drastic method is to kill someone with someone else's knife. I didn't do this before, not because I couldn't do it, but because I didn't want to do it! After all, unity in the war of resistance is the first element."

"But if this matter cannot be stopped from the American side, we will have to kill with a borrowed knife."

"But if this matter were to leak out, I would probably be condemned by everyone."

He looked at Dai Chunfeng with resentment:
"When the time comes, don't throw me out as a scapegoat like Tobiki and Ito did."

Dai Chunfeng didn't think so and laughed, "You, what are you thinking about every day?"

"What's more, we are in this line of work, and we are always blamed. If the time comes, being blamed by everyone will actually be a good thing for you!"

Dai Chunfeng was not jealous of Zhang Anping's current excellent reputation - the two titles of Commander Zhang and Zhang Shihao had very high prestige in the army and among the people.

Unless Zhang Anping jumps out of the intelligence system, his good reputation will become a burden.

Dai Chunfeng's view on power is consistent with that of most people in the Nationalist government:
Power comes from above, not below!

No matter how good the reputation among the people is, if the boss doesn't like it, what's the point of it? !
Zhang Anping now seems to have won the "saint's heart", but the title of "little guy" is enough to explain the captain's opinion of Zhang Anping!
On the contrary, if Zhang Anping could take more blame for the captain, so that the captain could label Zhang Anping as reliable and worthy of reuse, that would be what we most look forward to!
Therefore, Dai Chunfeng didn't care at all about Zhang Anping's worry about taking the blame.

Zhang Anping seemed to have taken Lao Dai's words to heart, and flattered him, "You are still thinking long-term!"

"Ginger is always wiser with age!" Dai Chunfeng laughed loudly, and then said, "Shall I take you home?"

"No, this time it's a business trip, you should arrange a plane to take me to the Third War Zone."

"You bastard," Dai Chunfeng said, not knowing whether to laugh or cry, "Do you think you are Dayu? Why do you pass by your home three times without entering?"

"If your mother knew, she would quarrel with me again - go home first, and go to the Third War Zone the day after tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. You are too nervous, you should go home and relax."

Speaking of this, Dai Chunfeng suddenly laughed:
"By the way, congratulations on becoming a father again."

Zhang Anping was stunned.

Doesn’t this mean that the second child was born early?
Seeing Zhang Anping's dazed expression, Dai Chunfeng smiled secretly but did not say it out loud. He kept it a secret all the way and sent Zhang Anping to the door of his house, then kicked his nephew out.

"I'll give you two more days off, five days. I'll arrange for you to go back after five days."

With the sound of the door closing, Dai Chunfeng drove away in the car with a smirk on his face.

As he watched the taillights of the car disappear into the distance, Zhang Anping's expression gradually calmed down.

He stared at the dark night sky, and a sentence emerged in his mind:

Is this a sign of the third anti-communist climax?
Historically, next year will be the third anti-communist climax launched by the Kuomintang diehards!

He sighed silently. He didn't expect that this time, he would end up standing on the "opposite side".

[In the future list of war criminals, the three characters Zhang Shihao will probably be on the list. ]
