Kingsman Agent in Film and Television

It's Wang Tianfeng again!
A shadow fell over Zhang Anping. He knew Wang Tianfeng wouldn't stay calm and collected, but he never expected him to create such a big problem for him so quickly.

His expression remained unchanged: "Summon Wang Tianfeng to see me!"

After Wang Tianfeng was transferred away from the intelligence department, Shen Zui from the action department took over the intelligence department. In Zhang Anping's initial plan, the intelligence department should have been supervised by Lao Zheng, so that Wang Tianfeng's influence could be completely eliminated.

The problem was that Zheng Yaoquan had been driven away by him, and Mao Renfeng had temporarily sided with him, making it inappropriate for Zheng Yaoquan to take over the intelligence department.

Zhang Anping then transferred Shen Zui to the intelligence department, while the action department was handed over to Zheng Yaoxian.

This is why Wang Tianfeng's core group in the intelligence department was not purged, and it is also the reason why he was able to command the intelligence department despite being a member of the archives review committee.

After Zheng Yi left, Zhang Anping fell into deep thought.

Green Pine Intelligence Group...

Because of organizational discipline, there was no vertical communication between the intelligence groups. The Nanjing Prefectural Committee was a local power, so the No. 2 intelligence group had some contact with it, but it was only through Chai Ying communicating with the Prefectural Committee's representative that the two groups made contact. If Zhang Anping hadn't been the deputy director of the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics, he wouldn't have known much about the Prefectural Committee.

The Qingsong Intelligence Group, judging from its name, is a separate intelligence group that certainly has no connection with the local committee—not all intelligence groups can be like the No. 2 Intelligence Group.

How should we warn the Qingsong intelligence team?

Yuan Nong...

Thinking of this name, Zhang Anping felt a headache coming on. When the negotiations between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party broke down, the Military Intelligence Bureau organized a roundup of underground party members. Yuan Nong was on the list of those to be rounded up. In the end, he managed to cover Yuan Nong's safe evacuation through deception.

Unexpectedly, he ran right into his own trap again!
Yuan Nong and Zeng Moyi definitely have no contact. If they did, Zeng Moyi would have told him.

Therefore, he currently lacks a means of issuing warnings!

While he was pondering this, Wang Tianfeng entered the office led by Zheng Yi.

This scene made Zhang Anping frown. He gestured for Zheng Yi to leave, and after Zheng Yi left, Zhang Anping said coldly:

"Since when did you, Wang Tianfeng, need my secretary to personally escort you into my office?"

"Since when... you, Wang Tianfeng, have to report to me in such a roundabout way to do things?!"

Wang Tianfeng was stunned for a moment, then said in silence, "This is in accordance with the procedure."

Zhang Anping scoffed:
"You're talking to me about procedures? If you really cared about procedures, you should be on the review committee right now!"

"I offered you people but you didn't use them. I thought you were disheartened, but I didn't expect you to be looking down on the people I gave you?"

Zhang Anping had never trusted Wang Tianfeng. Some time ago, after gaining power, he arranged a capable team for Wang Tianfeng. Since the decision to punish Wang Tianfeng was made personally by the "section chief," Zhang Anping couldn't move him out of his position, but providing him with manpower was in line with Zhang Anping's persona.

Of course, the real purpose was to keep Wang Tianfeng's actions under his control—the elite force he provided included infiltrators from the No. 2 intelligence group, as well as Zhang Anping, the deputy director's trusted confidant.

However, Wang Tianfeng refused to use them and spent his time peacefully in the archives.

The final result is as follows:

Before anyone could react, Wang Tianfeng caused a huge mess!

The Green Pine Intelligence Group—this was an intelligence group the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics had never heard of before! And yet Wang Tianfeng managed to get hold of such crucial information. It was truly… infuriating!

Faced with Zhang Anping's aggressive questioning, Wang Tianfeng finally chose to tell the truth:

"I don't want to become an excuse for others to attack you."

"Since you took over, you've covered for me far too many times."

Zhang Anping retorted angrily, "That's nonsense—anyone who isn't blind can see what kind of relationship we have!"

Even if you try to distance yourself, do you really think that when others attack me, they'll assume you weren't acting on my orders?!

Wang Tianfeng remained silent. He knew Zhang Anping was right, but he didn't want to cause Zhang Anping any more trouble.

Seeing that Wang Tianfeng remained silent, Zhang Anping did not press the matter further, but instead smiled and said:
“Since you’re out here doing this, stop hiding it—I’ll talk to Shen Zui. You arrest the intelligence officer right now. As for the Ministry of Economic Affairs, I’ll contact the person in charge. You handle the specifics yourself!”

"Hmm, I've never heard of this Green Pine Intelligence Group before. They're either newly formed or extremely well-hidden. In any case, I feel like they're definitely a big fish. If we catch them, I'll personally go to the entourage office to recommend them for credit!"

Wang Tianfeng shook his head slightly: "There's no need to ask for credit for now. It's not appropriate for my name to appear before that person right now."

"The one in charge isn't that person!"

Wang Tianfeng firmly refused:

"Let's not let my name appear for now—two tigers cannot share one mountain. If I get too involved, Shen Zui won't be satisfied."

"Okay—but you don't need to hide it. If all else fails, just set up a Second Intelligence Division. Old Wang, I hope you understand what I mean!"

Faced with Zhang Anping's domineering words, Wang Tianfeng was slightly taken aback but remained silent.

It had been a long time since he had met Zhang Anping, and he believed that Zhang Anping had not changed much—which was indeed the case. However, the casual remark he made just now about "establishing a second intelligence division" made Wang Tianfeng keenly aware of the changes in Zhang Anping.

Perhaps power really can bring about subtle changes in people.

Seeing that Zhang Anping didn't seem inclined to ask for details, Wang Tianfeng didn't report it. After a brief conversation, he asked to leave. Zhang Anping thought for a moment and then simply followed Wang Tianfeng out of the office, accompanying him all the way to the intelligence department.

This is clearly an endorsement of Wang Tianfeng.

Wang Tianfeng smiled bitterly to himself. He didn't want to cause Zhang Anping too much trouble, but Zhang Anping insisted on supporting him like this.

Actually... it's unnecessary!
Zhang Anping looked extremely solemn when he returned to his office.

He maintained his persona and did not ask Wang Tianfeng for more details. It was not that he did not want to ask, but that according to his persona, he had to fully trust Wang Tianfeng. Asking too many questions would only reveal his concern!
He had just tentatively sent Wang Tianfeng to the intelligence department, giving the impression that he was going to support Wang Tianfeng, but in reality, he wanted to see if Wang Tianfeng could actually control the intelligence department.

The conclusion is... a real headache!
Wang Tianfeng's prestige in the intelligence department remained unchanged—making his act of backing himself up seem superfluous.

But this was a terrible blow to Zhang Anping.

A murderous intent quietly surfaced in Zhang Anping's heart.

……

Zhang Anping, disguised, secretly met with Chai Ying.

Faced with Chai Ying's report, Zhang Anping was surprised and suspicious:
"No intelligence has come in from the intelligence department?"

"No—has something happened?" Chai Ying asked, "Should we order the intelligence comrades who are undercover to take the initiative to find out?"

Zhang Anping tapped the table lightly, his heart heavy.

Intelligence Group No. 2 is located in the intelligence department. There are four lines, four independent lines, involving four intelligence groups and as many as 17 people infiltrating!
No matter how you look at it, the intelligence department's information should be transparent to Intelligence Group No. 2 only.

But why is there no news this time?

No, this has happened before—when Wang Tianfeng was still the head of the intelligence department, during a secret investigation into the Katyusha operation, none of the four intelligence lines reported any relevant information. It turned out it wasn't due to negligence on the part of his comrades, but rather because Wang Tianfeng possessed a hidden intelligence force.

But now that this force has been officially taken over by the intelligence department, if Wang Tianfeng uses it alone, it's impossible to hide it from his own comrades who have already infiltrated!
Seeing Zhang Anping tapping the table with a heavy heart, Chai Ying immediately realized something serious must have happened. After Zhang Anping stopped tapping, she immediately pressed him for answers:

"Anping, what happened?"

Zhang Anping countered, "Have you heard of the Green Pine Intelligence Group?"

Chai Ying shook her head: "No—were they our comrades? Did something happen to them?"

“It’s one of our people—I’ve never heard of him before. Wang Tianfeng turned a traitor in the Qingsong intelligence group against us, and now we’ve found out that the core comrades of the Qingsong intelligence group are deeply embedded in the Kuomintang’s Ministry of Economic Affairs.”

Zhang Anping said with a solemn expression, "Logically speaking, Wang Tianfeng was turned by the intelligence department, so our comrades should have received the news!"

Our comrades buried deep within the Ministry of Economic Affairs?

Chai Ying was shocked. So this Qingsong intelligence group is extremely important!
"We must protect our comrades!"

She immediately said, "I'll try to contact Sister Qian and ask her about the Qingsong intelligence group!"

"No!" Zhang Anping shook his head and refused. The situation with Sister Qian was very special. The Nationalist army had been tracking her radio waves, and contacting her rashly might cause trouble.

"Let's stick to the previous agreement and wait for our superiors to contact us—you know Yuan Nong, right?"

"I know."

Yuan Nong's initial evacuation from Chongqing was orchestrated by Zhang Anping, but the actual executor was Chai Ying.

After taking a deep breath, Zhang Anping said, "He's already being watched. Have our comrades in the intelligence department check. They should be able to find Yuan Nong's location. Let me know as soon as you find it, and I'll find a way to make him cut off contact with the other comrades."

Chai Ying was stunned. The subtext of Zhang Anping's words was:
Give up on Yuan Nong!

"Why?!"

Chai Ying was stunned. She never expected that Zhang Anping, who never wanted to put his comrades in danger, would so decisively abandon Yuan Nong.

Most importantly, if Yuan Nong runs into trouble, what about the comrades lurking in the Ministry of Economic Affairs...?

"We shouldn't be kept in the dark about the traitor!" Zhang Anping took a deep breath: "Since the other party was lured into betrayal, how could so many comrades in the intelligence department not have received relevant intelligence?"

This rhetorical question made Chai Ying think deeply.

The Intelligence Division, the core of the Intelligence Division of the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics, has about a hundred people. However, relying on these hundred people, there is an incredibly huge intelligence network. These tentacles cover all areas of Nanjing and extend to other areas.

Although only half of the agents of Intelligence Group Two were infiltrated within the intelligence department, they all had extremely high privileges—no matter which node in the intelligence department made any move, it was impossible to hide it from the eyes of Intelligence Group Two.

However, Intelligence Group No. 2 did not receive any intelligence.

Chai Ying reacted quickly: "You mean... this so-called traitor might not actually be a traitor?"

Zhang Anping nodded deeply: "That's what I'm worried about!"

hiss--

Chai Ying gasped. She had previously thought that Wang Tianfeng might still have hidden forces that he hadn't handed over.

But Zhang Anping was considering:
This traitor may not be a traitor at all.

This doesn't mean the other party isn't a traitor, but rather that there's another possibility:
This traitor is very likely a spy planted by Wang Tianfeng!
After a moment's thought, Chai Ying asked in a low voice, "But if he was the one who planted the spy, why would he hide it from you?"

“I haven’t asked him—all the intelligence we have now is information that the intelligence department has transferred to Zheng Yi through normal channels.”

Zhang Anping corrected Chai Ying's statement: "Comrade Chai Ying, I know you may find my decision cold-blooded, but I hope you will not let personal feelings affect the implementation of the resolution. Do you understand what I mean?"

This was the first serious warning Zhang Anping gave to Chai Ying.

Upon hearing this, Chai Ying immediately replied, "Don't worry, I just didn't expect there to be so many twists and turns involved—I know how much you value Wang Tianfeng, I won't make any mistakes!"

Seeing Zhang Anping in such a serious state for the first time, Chai Ying felt a strange fear of him and repeatedly tried to explain.

"Also, give Mingtai a copy of the identification code. If the situation is urgent, I will contact him directly."

"it is good!"

……

After leaving Chai Ying's place, Zhang Anping did not choose to go home, but instead wandered aimlessly through the streets of Nanjing.

Giving up on Yuan Nong was a difficult decision for Zhang Anping.

From a public standpoint, this was his own comrade, and he chose to abandon him without even trying to help; that was far too cold-hearted.
Personally, Yuan Nong raised Zeng Moyi single-handedly, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call him Zeng Moyi's father. As her son-in-law, it would be too heartless of him to abandon her like this.

However, he dared not gamble.

Wang Tianfeng, this time the "surprise" you gave yourself was too much!

It's utterly absurd that a speculator driven by profit could deceive countless eyes in the intelligence department.

If this person was Wang Tianfeng's mole, and then suddenly turned against him as a traitor to the underground party, then everything makes sense.

Why did Wang Tianfeng do this?

Zhang Anping guessed that, firstly, he must have gathered information about [Green Pine];

Secondly, Wang Tianfeng was also taking advantage of this opportunity to fish!

While in Chongqing, Wang Tianfeng must have realized the extent of the underground party's infiltration of the intelligence department. In addition, he always suspected that Xiang Yingxin was "Katyusha"—this period of "silence" may have been Wang Tianfeng secretly sharpening his knife.

Now that he must be confident, he has revealed the methods he had been hiding.

The target is not only "Qingsong", but also the undercover agents hidden in the intelligence department and even the secret service!
Of course, all of this was Zhang Anping's speculation, but his speculation was based on the analysis of existing intelligence and his understanding of Wang Tianfeng's character.

But Zhang Anping now hopes he's wrong.

Even if he guesses wrong, he still has a chance to save Yuan Nong.

If I guessed right...

Zhang Anping's expression turned cold. After taking a deep breath, he concealed the faint killing intent emanating from his body.

Taking another deep breath, Zhang Anping murmured:

"Mo Yi, I'm sorry..."

He didn't know how to tell his wife about it. (End of Chapter)
