Kingsman Agent in Film and Television

Sister Qian came to Qianshan specifically to find Zhang Anping. The main reason was that according to the information relayed by Zeng Moyi, Zhang Anping hoped to communicate with the organization regarding the candidate for the contact person.

So the organization specially sent Sister Qian here.

After initially accepting Zhang Anping, the organization's concerns were actually the same as Sister Qian's. They were always worried that Zhang Anping was young and impulsive, and would act on impulse. In the first few incidents, Zhang Anping gave the organization the impression that a young man was doing things without considering the consequences.

This is not a criticism or a derogatory term.

Just like the initial rescue of Yin Liming.

To put it cruelly, on the underground front, comrades with secret identities are more valuable than comrades with exposed identities. Behind this cruel statement, it means that for the sake of the lurking comrades, comrades whose identities have been exposed must never have any problems because of rescuing each other.

The cruel truth is: give up!
It's cruel, but this is the brutal battlefield of intelligence.

Cruelty is for the safety of more comrades. The information provided by a comrade who is in hiding will affect many more people.

But what Zhang Anping did was seen by the organization as the passion of a young man.

A comrade who risks his life to rescue his comrades is trustworthy;
And young people should be passionate!

However, this is the cruel intelligence front. Watching your comrades being tortured, or even watching your comrades dying in front of your eyes, or even personally serving as an executioner to slaughter your comrades - this is the cruelty that undercover personnel need to face!

Zhang Anping's intention to rescue Yin Liming was not to be blamed, but as a hidden intelligence officer, it was dereliction of duty.

Being irresponsible to oneself means being irresponsible to countless comrades.

Therefore, the organization has always been worried about Zhang Anping.

But when the three words "Zhang Shihao" gradually became the nightmare of the Japanese, the organization no longer had such concerns - because Zhang Anping had proved with his ability that he had enough confidence to cover his own actions!

It was from that time that Sister Qian changed her opinion, which also meant that the organization had changed its view of Zhang Anping.

The establishment of the No. 2 Intelligence Group, with Lao Cen as the person in charge, and then Zhang Anping becoming the person in charge, were all natural results of the change in the organization's views.

Therefore, when Zeng Moyi relayed the information that Zhang Anping needed to negotiate with the organization on the contact issue, the organization sent Sister Qian, who had been busy for more than a year, over again.

At this time, Sister Qian had already agreed to Zhang Anping's plan, so she naturally needed to know why Zhang Anping was negotiating on the contact issue.

"I want Lin Nansheng to be my new contact."

Zhang Anping’s contact person is Lao Cen, but due to work reasons, Lao Cen cannot leave Shanghai now. Zhang Anping has been running around for some time and has no fixed office, so the organization has not arranged a new contact person for the time being, but the contact issue is already being considered.

But it is difficult for anyone to meet this requirement.

Zhang Anping's identity is so special that the issue of contact is extremely difficult - except for Lao Cen, the organization can't think of anyone else who can serve as this important bridge.

Sister Qian's preference is to find a comrade from Zhang Anping's direct line to serve as the contact person, but for security reasons, Sister Qian hopes to adopt the intelligence transmission method of a letter to eliminate the possibility of the contact person meeting Zhang Anping.

She discussed this idea with Zhang Anping, but Zhang Anping did not agree to it directly.

He can be quite radical at times, and sometimes he cannot help but intervene directly in command. This is his style of doing things, so he needs a comrade who completely trusts him.

But he still doesn't have the best candidate at the moment. He even wants to transfer Mingtai back to work under him and let him be the contact person.

After all, Mingtai is one of the protagonists of a certain period of time and space, and Zhang Anping trusts the protagonist.

This time in Chongqing, when he was in the attendant's room, he suddenly remembered Lin Nansheng, whom he had arranged to go undercover in Yan'an.

Lin Nansheng is his student and the protagonist in a certain time and space segment. Moreover, Lin Nansheng being "caught" is consistent with his darkening process. The most crucial point is:

After Lin Nansheng was arrested, he could rescue him at all costs and then give him a chance to make a comeback.

This behavior is very consistent with a certain personality:
The teacher protects the students’ personality!
Even if Lin Nansheng has "problems" again in the future, Zhang Anping's protection of him will not be interpreted as collusion with the Communist Party, but will only be regarded as protection of students and be deceived!

Even if the opponent uses this as a reason to attack him, in someone's eyes, it is reasonable. After all, that person has always been very tolerant of the Whampoa students he personally taught, and he may even empathize with them.

After hearing Zhang Anping's request, Sister Qian instinctively frowned: "Lin Nansheng, isn't this inappropriate?"

Of course she trusted Lin Nansheng. As the person in charge of the Military Control Commission's spy network in Yan'an, Lin Nansheng, as an Eighth Route Army cadre, was like a fish in water in Yan'an. The huge spy network that Zhang Anping had built after infiltrating Yan'an for several years seemed to be vigorous, but in fact everything was under control.

But according to Zhang Anping's arrangement, Lin Nansheng's evacuation must be accompanied by the complete destruction of the Military Control Commission's spy network in Yan'an. If someone else were to go, could it be guaranteed that this spy network that was under control would be successfully destroyed?

"We can close the net in Yan'an now—" Zhang Anping said in a serious tone, "We can take advantage of this opportunity to create the illusion that Lin Nansheng has revolted after being arrested."

"If there are any mistakes in the future, we can use this as a reference."

"Besides, I want you to be responsible for this matter."

Sister Qian was stunned: "I am responsible?"

In the conversation just now, Zhang Anping said that he wanted to build a positive image of someone who defeated Zhang Shihao. Now Sister Qian finally understood that the person Zhang Anping was talking about was actually her!

Sister Qian was puzzled: "Why me?"

"First of all, you have worked with me many times, so you can be said to be the person who knows me best."

"Secondly, if you found my weakness and defeated me, it would be consistent with my sudden change of character."

Why did Zhang Anping and Xu Baichuan become brothers?

In addition to saving Xu Baichuan several times, the biggest factor is that the two of them have a common language.

Before the Battle of Shanghai, Zhang Shihao was notorious in the underground party, and his plan to wipe out the party members could even be described as extremely cruel.

But after the full outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, Zhang Shihao was able to let go of his hatred and not cause any trouble in his repeated cooperation with the underground party. This is also the most similar point between him and Xu Baichuan. The two naturally became close friends and brothers who trusted each other through life and death.

Even though Zhang Anping joined the Anti-Communist Committee, Xu Baichuan just laughed at Zhang Anping and never believed that Zhang Anping would attack friendly forces when the battle was in full swing.

In fact, Zhang Anping did not disappoint Xu Baichuan. During the Southern Anhui Incident, the Zhongjiu Army was working with the New Fourth Army to loot the Japanese army's arms. Faced with the military order to attack the New Fourth Army, Zhang Anping delayed it as much as possible and did not issue an order for the Zhongjiu Army to fight the New Fourth Army.

Xu Baichuan also stuck to his original intention. When faced with orders from Dai Chunfeng, he evacuated and informed his allies in advance, so as not to kill any friendly forces.

They even launched a counterattack before evacuating.

It was also because of this that he was temporarily removed from his position as commander-in-chief of the Loyal Rescue Army.

If Zhang Anping suddenly changed, it would be unreasonable from Xu Baichuan's perspective.

However, if all the hard work in Yan'an was destroyed and Zhang Anping acted with hatred, does this make sense?

Totally compliant!

The most important thing is Sister Qian. Qian Chongwen has worked with Zhang Shihao for many times. They are close friends, right? If she presided over the counter-espionage work and destroyed the spy network that Zhang Anping had painstakingly built in Yan'an and the spy network built in the New Fourth Army, would the serious psychological gap make Zhang Shihao change his attitude? Is it reasonable? !

It makes sense!

After listening to Zhang Anping's analysis, Sister Qian agreed with Zhang Anping's statement, but still felt it was... weird.

This is actually similar to asking the organization for an official position. For an old underground party member like her, it is really too much, doubly too much.

But seeing Zhang Anping's solemn expression, Sister Qian suppressed her rising shame, nodded seriously and said:
"I see!"

Just four simple words, but they are her promise!

Zhang Anping secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

He actually had some vague plans for his future - his family was now entangled with the US military, and had established such a deep friendship with the Office of Strategic Services, the predecessor of the CIA, that it would not be worthwhile to waste it easily.

He was not afraid of Gongdelin, but felt that since he already had such a foundation, he would definitely be more suitable for a place where he was more needed in the future. But he was still worried about others.

In the original time and space, Sister Qian, as the deputy minister, took a huge risk to protect Lao Zheng before the disaster began.

If it weren’t for her, Lao Zheng might... might have been even worse off.

In that case, why doesn’t he help Sister Qian?

He has too many people who need his future money sister!

But this feeling cannot be expressed in words.

……

Zhang Anping's request was passed on to the organization as Sister Qian secretly returned to the base.

Comrade Li accepted the telegram sent by Sister Qian after a brief thought - there was one thing Comrade Li admitted, that Zhang Anping's current position was actually not lower than his, and sometimes he considered things more comprehensively than him.

In his opinion, Zhang Anping's arrangements were very, very good. It was not at all like what Sister Qian thought, that the organization would misunderstand that he was trying to get an official position for Sister Qian.

Underground party members, for their beliefs, walked between life and death. One thought means life, nine thoughts mean death. Have they ever considered these empty and nonsense things?

If they considered this, how could they let go of all their ties and bravely die in the flames and bayonets? !

After reporting the matter to his superiors, Comrade Li began to make secret arrangements. During the process, he secretly met with Lin Nansheng.

The two met secretly in a cave.

Seeing that the person he was meeting was Comrade Li, Lin Nansheng immediately realized that he had to take action.

He didn't hesitate and asked directly: "Commander, do you need me to go back?"

Comrade Li smiled and said, "Are you so eager to go back? Is it because it's too hard here and you can't stand it?"

He was joking, of course.

But it is true that life in Yan'an was hard.

But this suffering only applies to some people.

People of faith come here and face the various things here, and what they see is hope.

But those who came with ulterior motives saw only hardship!
The Military Control Commission spared no effort in infiltrating Yan'an. Take Zhang Anping for example. He alone sent thousands of people to Yan'an in just a few years!
There are of course some passionate people who truly pursue their beliefs, but there are also quite a few undercover agents among them.

But just as Zhang Anping complained to Dai Chunfeng, only one in ten of these people can persevere.

Such information is often reported:
I'm about to be exposed, requesting evacuation!

That’s right, it was too hard and they couldn’t bear it.

Some people even ran away directly.

But Lin Nansheng never felt bitter. On the contrary, he enjoyed the hard work here. Like those passionate people with faith, he saw hope here.

He cherishes every minute and every second here!
Facing the chief's joke, Lin Nansheng smiled and said, "If the chief is reluctant to let me go back, then I will enjoy myself for a few more years."

"Hey," Comrade Li sighed, "Comrade Nansheng, you have to go back."

Lin Nansheng knew this result the moment he met Comrade Li, so he was not surprised. He expressed his attitude proudly:
"I obey the organization's arrangements!"

He is one of the most trusted students of the big spy Zhang Shihao, and one of the best students in the first batch of Guanwangmiao training class. To be honest, putting him in Yan'an is a pleasure for him, but it is the biggest waste of his identity!

Seeing Lin Nansheng like this, Comrade Li couldn't help but sigh in his heart that Zhang Anping was very good at judging people - many comrades, after getting used to living in Yan'an, really couldn't bear to leave this place.

Not to mention that from Lin Nansheng's perspective, going back means returning to the dangerous place!
"Comrade Nan Sheng, let me tell you about the next arrangements—"

Comrade Li said solemnly: "Next, the spy networks in your hands will be eliminated one by one. You need to continuously transmit intelligence to the outside according to the progress of the cracking—"

"Until you get arrested."

"I was arrested?" Lin Nansheng was stunned. "If I am arrested, it will be difficult to be re-employed in the Military Control Commission, right?"

"Don't worry, the organization has its own arrangements."

Comrade Li originally planned to tell Lin Nansheng about Zhang Anping's identity, but after thinking it over, he felt that if he told Lin Nansheng about this, Lin Nansheng would definitely become psychologically relaxed after returning to the Military Control Commission.

After all, the three names Zhang Shihao are not exaggerating!

And he was not sure whether the Military Control Commission would send Lin Nansheng directly to Qianshan County or Chongqing - he had to prepare Lin Nansheng for investigation in Chongqing.

Of course, we cannot be lax at all!
So, I'll keep it a secret.

"After you return, someone will contact you. The code for contacting you is..."

Comrade Li told Lin Nansheng the contact code. After listening to it, Lin Nansheng repeated it several times and memorized it firmly in his mind.

"The person you are meeting with is your superior, and you must obey his orders."

Lin Nansheng said solemnly: "Please rest assured, Chief, Nansheng knows the discipline!"

Comrade Li reminded him, "Your contact person is very special. No matter who the other party is, as long as you say this contact code, it means that the person you are contacting is your superior. Don't doubt it at that time. Only the three of us know this code. Do you understand?"

Seeing that the chief was speaking so seriously, Lin Nansheng was extremely curious. What kind of person was his superior that the chief gave him such instructions?

Lin Nansheng thought about the people in his mind, but he couldn't think of who would contact him at that time.

……

Sister Qian returned to Yan'an before the New Year.

And on New Year's Eve, a special day for the Chinese people, Sister Qian led the Yan'an security force and began a large-scale arrest of hidden spies.

The operation lasted for eight full days, with arrests taking place during almost the entire festival period.

As the person in charge of the Military Control Commission's Yan'an spy network, as the arrests continued, Lin Nansheng sent one urgent secret telegram after another through special channels.

First telegram:
The entire Red Flame Intelligence Team was arrested.

The second telegram came less than 20 hours later:
Three intelligence teams have been arrested, and there is a suspected traitor, so investigate quickly.

The third intelligence came 36 hours later:
The losses were severe, and the various units were already asleep, ready to evacuate.

Fourth telegram:
The evacuation route was destroyed and the staff was ready to sacrifice their lives for the country.

The fifth letter:
There must be a traitor who is of a very high rank. I want to be loyal to the party and the country, so please take care of my family.

Not long after this telegram reached the Military Intelligence Bureau headquarters and Zhang Anping, a thunderclap exploded:

Yan'an lodged a solemn protest against the National Government and provided a list of 115 spies, pointing the finger directly at Zhang Shihao, claiming that Zhang Shihao was the culprit who undermined the cooperation between the two parties.

After the news of this incident came out, the Military Intelligence Bureau lost face and people from all walks of life continued to condemn its behavior. Zhang Shihao, who was once called a model of the War of Resistance against Japan, was also severely criticized, and the curses drowned out Zhang Anping.

It is said that Zhang Shihao vomited blood on the spot when he heard that Lin Nansheng was arrested and the Military Control Commission's spy network in Yan'an was broken. (End of this chapter)
