Kingsman Agent in Film and Television

Chapter 684: To fight against foreign aggression, we must first stabilize the internal situation!

The Military Control Commission estimated that there were only two possibilities for the destruction of the intelligence network in Yan'an.

The first possibility:
Traitor!

A very high level traitor!

Only in this way can it be explained that such a huge intelligence network would be overturned in a short period of time.

Although the Military Control Commission received information that this process took several days, like peeling an onion, the other side peeled off layer by layer and finally overthrew it completely.

But such actions looked very much like a cover-up to the Military Control Commission - the other party was deliberately trying to conceal the fact that they had detailed intelligence.

The second possibility:
There was a traitor, but his level was not as high as imagined. It was just that the traitor provided key information. After the border guards obtained this key information, they followed the clues and wiped out the entire intelligence network.

But no matter whether it is the former or the latter, the traitor actually existed for a long time, and after obtaining the relevant information, Bian Bao had been quietly investigating it. It was not until now, until Zhang Anping was ordered to start planning against the New Fourth Army, that the other party wiped out the intelligence network at this time.

It has the meaning of warning, and it also has the meaning of using fighting to promote peace.

Including Dai Chunfeng, everyone sees this matter in this way.

No one doubted that the root of the problem lay with Zhang Anping, and no one doubted that the problem lay with Lin Nansheng.

However, this was not the result Zhang Anping wanted.

The situation he created made it impossible for the Military Control Commission to investigate this "traitor".

If we go by possibility one, the investigation will be limited to a few high-level officials, which is not difficult to investigate - but high-level officials mean they have extremely special identities, and if we want to investigate, Dai Chunfeng's warrant alone will not be enough. First of all, it is impossible to conduct an investigation by rummaging through boxes and looking for clues like an ordinary investigation.

Secondly, once these investigations were leaked, not to mention the backlash that would be caused, just the instigation of political opponents (such as the Central Bureau of Investigation) who would watch the fun without hesitation would make the Military Bureau of Investigation a laughing stock.

There is a traitor in the top leadership of the Military Control Commission!

This title will make the Military Control Commission embarrassed!

If we go with the second possibility, the scope and area involved will be extremely large - after all, the basis of this speculation is that the traitor has access to top-secret information, but the border guards have been holding back in order to protect the other party until now, which means that the other party has already made preparations to hide, and investigation may not necessarily reveal any results.

This was the thinking of the core members of the Military Control Commission before Zhang Anping came, including Dai Chunfeng.

However, Dai Chunfeng placed his hopes on his nephew. After all, his nephew had created countless miracles, and he felt that this time his nephew would be able to find out the traitor.

But now, Zhang Anping told him:
In the hands of Bian Bao Qian Zhongwen, there is detailed information that even Zhang Shihao doesn't know!

Faced with Zhang Anping's two answers, one the same as his own and one slightly different, Dai Chunfeng's expression changed again and again.

Does this mean...there's a problem with a high-ranking official in the Military Intelligence Bureau headquarters?

After a long silence, Dai Chunfeng said solemnly: "It seems that there really is a problem with the top management in the bureau headquarters."

If it weren't for the intelligence Zhang Anping had just brought back, Dai Chunfeng would actually be inclined to the second possibility - that there was a traitor in the core layer involved in confidential matters.

But now this information confirms the first possibility, which is also the possibility that Dai Chunfeng is most unwilling to face!

"Who will it be?"

He considered each name and rejected them one by one.

There were people in the senior ranks of the Military Control Commission and the headquarters who did not get along with Dai Chunfeng, but no matter how you looked at it or judged it, there should not be anyone who betrayed the Party and the country!

After thinking for a long time, Dai Chunfeng still had no clue, so he asked Zhang Anping:

"Do you have any ideas?"

Zhang Anping did not answer, but said: "I want to get all my people back."

Dai Chunfeng frowned: "What conditions are proposed over there?"

"Release the detained underground party members; I have a few more requests that I don't want to bother with."

"You want to find out something from them?"

Zhang Anping said nothing.

"Not sure?"

"I have an idea in my mind," Zhang Anping paused, "but I need to verify it carefully. If it is true..."

His expression became sinister, then he retracted his sinisterness and said calmly, "Once my guess is confirmed, I will report to you then. Is that ok with you?"

Dai Chunfeng didn't care too much about Zhang Anping's behavior of keeping things a secret. He just frowned and said, "If you want to exchange all the people back, Bian Bao will most likely not give in."

"I know, and I am willing to take all the responsibility for this and will never shirk it!"

Dai Chunfeng smiled helplessly, thinking of his own nephew.

"Okay, do as you think. The sky won't fall!" Dai Chunfeng said with a smile, "Even if it does, I'll be there to hold it up!"

Zhang Anping saluted respectfully and then retreated, leaving Dai Chunfeng smiling bitterly in the office. This brat had always been sensible, but after losing this time, he had completely lost all sense of propriety.

Brat!
He muttered something with unspeakable emotion and picked up the phone:
"Send someone to the negotiation team. I want to listen to the negotiation process."

Following his phone call, a member of the negotiation team who was having a meal had to wipe his mouth and rush to the office to introduce the negotiation process in detail to Lao Dai.

Although he only gave a brief version, it still took him a long time. By the time he finished his report, it was time for the negotiation team to set off.

The member of the negotiation team who was encouraged by Dai Chunfeng touched his empty stomach, resisted the urge to eat, and got into the negotiation team's car.

The convoy suddenly stopped during the journey. Zhang Anping ordered his men to buy some snacks on the pretext that they were hungry. The others did not eat much, but the spy who reported to Dai Chunfeng ate heartily.

When getting off the car, he noticed that the pastries allocated to Zhang Anping had not been touched. He instantly realized the kindness from Commander Zhang. The spy was inexplicably moved and vowed to be the pioneer for Wang in the next negotiations.

Unfortunately, he thought too much. The subsequent negotiations were not as heated as in the morning. Instead, Zhang Anping put forward his own conditions straightforwardly:

Exchange! Yes, we can! But we won’t provide anything in text form.

After discussing for a while, the border security negotiation team agreed to Zhang Anping's conditions reluctantly.

The negotiations seemed to have reached a unified agreement, but in the final stage, Zhang Anping caused some trouble.

"The number of your party members we have mistakenly arrested is far less than the number you provided - I hope you can provide a list. If there is a misunderstanding, I hope both you and I can explain it clearly during the execution."

This is a counter-attack.

From the perspective of the Military Control Commission, the underground party raised the number of prisons and the number of detainees, so it was natural to use this as a counterattack at this time.

Sister Qian looked at Zhang Anping with a smile, and there was an incomprehensible emotion in her smile, like mockery, like a sneer.

"Since Commander Zhang has made this request, we will naturally agree."

"The list... is here!"

Without seeing Sister Qian say anything, a border security staff member approached with a stack of documents. After placing the documents on the conference table, the other person left, leaving only a thick stack of names.

"Commander Zhang, this is the list of our personnel you have detained. Please review it."

Sister Qian said quietly.

A complex emotion appeared on Zhang Anping's calm face:

"You are well prepared - I have already known about this, and the negotiations... will end here! I will be the first to fulfill what I promised you, and I hope you will fulfill your agreement!" Zhang Anping said leisurely, then stood up and left the meeting room without looking back.

However, everyone in the conference room felt a chill running down their spine.

……

Military Intelligence Bureau Headquarters. Zhang Anping appeared in Dai Chunfeng's office. Compared with his previous emotions and performances, Zhang Anping now exuded a bone-chilling coldness all over his body.

"Uncle," Zhang Anping shouted out this title that he had never used before in front of his secretary with a look of grief and indignation. Then, he said listlessly, looking as if he was heartbroken.

"Tell me, we fought so hard, so many people lost their lives, but... for what?!"

Facing Zhang Anping's weakness and helplessness after the negotiation, Dai Chunfeng couldn't help but frown. He stared at Zhang Anping and asked:

"What happened?"

Zhang Anping laughed at himself upon hearing this. The louder he laughed, the more tears started to flow down his cheeks.
"Uncle, Chief, I can't accept this!"

"Since I joined the Military Control Commission, I have worked diligently and have not dared to be careless or relax in the slightest."

"Because I know that behind me are countless great men who are fighting for the Chinese nation!"

"Behind me are men who have sacrificed everything for the country. They left their families and their estates behind, just to make the contribution they should when the Chinese nation needs them most."

At this point, Zhang Anping's eyes turned red, and he punched the table angrily, anger burning in his eyes:
"But I can't understand why some people, why some people can ignore their efforts! Why some people can disregard everything for their own selfish reasons!"

"They, they are the most loyal men of our party and country!"

"But why would someone do anything for their own selfish desires?"

"why?"

Zhang Anping questioned Dai Chunfeng with red eyes. At this moment, he was thinking of countless great men who were either uneducated or just obeying the call of the country, or were just conscripted into the army.

However, facing the Japanese invaders, they were desperate, they were willing to sacrifice their own lives, and they gambled everything for the great dream that the National Government talked about!
However, their superiors, and their superiors' superiors' superiors, rarely consider this great country. The first factor they consider is never this great country, but personal interests and party interests!

But in Dai Chunfeng's eyes, Zhang Anping was not talking about this, but...

"You mean... someone..." Dai Chunfeng's tone was very strange: "Is he selling you out?"

"you still need to ask?"

Zhang Anping's voice was roaring, but also with a hint of tears: "Uncle, I know what they mean. They are not happy that I am above them!"

"I know what they mean. They hate that a junior like me is above them!"

"I know!"

"I know everything!"

Zhang Anping slammed his fist on the table angrily: "I can understand their alliance, I can understand their fear, but I can't understand why they stabbed me in the back so cruelly at this critical moment!"

"I never thought about fighting for power. I have always been giving in! I have always been trying to avoid the harm to the cause of the party and the country, and the cause of the nation due to internal struggles!"

"But, but..."

"How dare they?"

"How dare you?!"

Zhang Anping roared angrily, his eyes full of rage and deep heartache.

At this time, he was thinking about the cold arrows from the captain and the diehards of the National Government, but in Dai Chunfeng's eyes, this situation was undoubtedly another picture!
……

After Dai Chunfeng was touched by the intelligence team in Yan'an, he thought of a possibility:
Is this a cold arrow shot by someone at his nephew?
But he has been avoiding this idea!

because……

Those who can shoot this arrow are all extremely important veterans of the Military Control Commission. If the other party is caught at this moment, it will be a fatal blow to the Military Control Commission!
The veterans of the Military Control Commission sold out the intelligence of the Party and the country!
This scandal will be an indelible shadow for the Military Control Commission, and will also be a scar that Dai Chunfeng will find difficult to heal.

Therefore, Dai Chunfeng never thought about this possibility!

But, is this possible?
impossible!
Based on Dai Chunfeng's understanding of the "elites" of the party-state, they will not be bound by any means for the sake of interests and power.

As long as Zhang Anping can be killed, does the means matter?

At this moment, the crying and weeping of his nephew had made him realize that the so-called traitor was most likely what his nephew had said:

There is no traitor at all!
There are no traitors at all, there are only those who use any means necessary to achieve their goals in the power struggle!

is it possible?
Not only is this the answer, but... it is very, very possible!

However, as the helmsman of the Military Control Commission, Dai Chunfeng could not easily believe Zhang Anping's "blood-crying". He stared at his nephew and asked:
"Why do you say that?"

Zhang Anping said in an almost foolish and mocking tone:

"why?"

He laughed loudly and said, "It's because Bian Bao was deliberately telling me that the Military Control Commission had a spy among them!"

"why?"

"Because the border guards are using various means to convey a fact to me: the Military Control Commission has a spy who is being protected by them!"

"Commander, uncle, this is not... enough? Not enough?!"

Faced with Zhang Anping's questioning, Dai Chunfeng remained silent.

In fact, at noon, he guessed that Zhang Anping had similar speculations.

Now, it's just confirmed.

In the final analysis, some people envy Zhang Shihao for being able to take over the position calmly and step by step, because some people are jealous that Zhang Shihao got the support of Dai Chunfeng and was able to smoothly take over the position of the head of the Military Control Commission!

So, at this critical moment, he racked his brains to obtain all kinds of information and stabbed Zhang Shihao in the back!

is it possible?
Oh, this is not a question of possibility, but...

When Zhang Anping gave this answer, Dai Chunfeng, who had been avoiding thinking in this direction, had already accepted this answer.

Because the answer was given by his nephew Zhang Shihao!

Is it credible?
No doubt!
He did not doubt his nephew's answer!

Because he, Dai Chunfeng, had already guessed this possibility!

Now, it has been confirmed by my nephew.

Facing the disappointed nephew, the disheartened nephew, and the nephew with tears in his eyes, Dai Chunfeng stood up, gently patted his shoulder, and said with a smile:
"Perhaps, some people think that... before we can resist foreign aggression, we must first stabilize the internal situation?"

Zhang Anping kept repeating these words:
The outside must be safe first!

His eyes turned cold:
“In order to fight against the outside world, we must first settle down at home!”

"Commander, I am willing to take all the responsibility for this matter!"

He stared at Dai Chunfeng: "I am willing to bear all the responsibilities. This matter... must not be let go!"

Dai Chunfeng looked at his murderous nephew and nodded gently:

"I know."

"Can't let him go!"

After Zhang Anping finished speaking with endless murderous intent, he whispered, "Zhang Shihao, the official, is willing to accept any punishment for this failure!"

"Absolutely nothing!"
