Kingsman Agent in Film and Television

The contents of the Bureau of Secrecy's meetings are generally not kept secret.

Therefore, the news spread rapidly not long after the bureau meeting ended.

You should know that almost everyone in the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics was eagerly awaiting the outcome of this meeting—whether they were members of Zhang's faction or members of the Pan-Mao faction, they were all waiting!
When the details were leaked out, everyone who heard them was stunned. This bureau meeting had turned into Mao Renfeng and a group of elders trying to protect Chen Ming to the death!
Those who can survive in the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics are not fools, and they can naturally see through Mao Renfeng's intentions—Mao Renfeng's intentions are truly too sinister!

But what surprised people the most was the way Zhang Anping broke the deadlock.

To put it bluntly, Zhang Anping's way of breaking the deadlock was through an exchange of interests, but the whole thing feels so absurd.

Zhang Anping, who clearly wanted to uphold military discipline and national law, ended up having to give up his own interests to achieve his righteous goal—it's too fantastical, too...challenging to one's moral compass.

Many people even had a picture in their minds:
On a dilapidated ship, everyone is celebrating and dismantling parts to sell for money. Only one person is constantly repairing the ship, his head down. Sometimes, he has to buy parts from others that they have just removed from the ship and then repair them himself.

"Is this what happens when a nation is about to perish... and a monstrous evil is sure to emerge?"

Of course, only a very small number of people who can recognize reality can make such a statement. Most people do not have a keen strategic vision and cannot see what the National Revolutionary Army will face next.

And what they could see was...

Get promoted and make money!

We need to expand!

The Bureau of Investigation and Statistics, which had been dormant for over a year, was to be expanded again. If Commander Zhang's report was followed, the dormant Bureau of Investigation and Statistics would once again become the formidable Military Intelligence Bureau!

So, what can I gain from this wave?
This is what more people care about.

……

Looking at the dozens of intelligence reports in her hand with roughly the same content, even though the reports indicated that this was the plan of the notorious spy Zhang Shih-hao, Chai Ying still couldn't help but gasp.

This plan is absolutely ruthless!
Images of dozens or even hundreds of special operations teams infiltrating the liberated areas every now and then flashed through her mind, and she couldn't help but shudder.

The special operations team of several dozen people uses American automatic weapons. Even if they use "big eight" (a type of weapon), the instantaneous burst of firepower is far greater than that of our army. Such a small force of several dozen to nearly a hundred people would probably require several times or even ten times the strength to surround and block them!
The core force of our army at the grassroots level is the guerrilla force. Chai Ying knows best what level of equipment the guerrilla force is equipped with—with such a huge disparity in firepower, these special forces can really roam around easily, leaving behind a scene of utter devastation.

"What is Anping trying to do?!"

Chai Ying knew that Zhang Anping would never harm his own people, but she was still very worried.

Fortunately, Zhang Anping knew that the bomb he had dropped was quite frightening, so he secretly came to meet Chai Ying that very night.

"Don't worry, this fire won't reach our own people."

Zhang Anping explained with a smile:

"This is just a pie in the sky, bait to lure Mao Renfeng and his ilk into a trap."

Chai Ying breathed a sigh of relief: "They won't do that? Then I'm relieved."

"They'll do it that way!"

But Zhang Anping's answer made her heart jump again. While admiring her husband for being able to work with Anping for nearly ten years, Chai Ying's face darkened.

"Comrade Anping, can you please explain this clearly?"

Zhang Anping said slowly, "I plan to let Zheng Yaoxian reap the rewards from the special forces."

Chai Ying was taken aback. She wanted Old Zheng to pick this peach?!

She was initially delighted, but then frowned and said, "But that doesn't diminish the threat this army you intend to build poses to us!"

Although it is still far from Zheng Yaoxian taking control of the special armed forces that have not yet been approved for establishment, Chai Ying believes in Zhang Anping's ability to orchestrate events—it is not unfounded to say that Zheng Yaoxian will reap the rewards.

But just as she said, the threat posed by this unit cannot disappear because of Zheng Yaoxian, can it?

Instead of answering Chai Ying's question, Zhang Anping asked, "You should have read my analysis of the strategy at the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics meeting, right? Do you think what I said is correct?"

Chai Ying nodded without hesitation:
"I completely agree!"

Zhang Anping smiled and then said, "I think the offensive launched in the Northeast has set an example for all our troops—similar offensives will definitely be launched in all liberated areas next."

"The Kuomintang army never gained an advantage when it took the initiative to attack, so we took their punches. Now it's our turn to attack—can they... take these punches?"

You hit me, I took the hit; now it's my turn to make a move. Can you take it?
Chai Ying's eyes lit up: "I can't handle it!"

The Kuomintang launched the main offensive, resulting in the loss of over a million troops. Our army's strength, however, increased rather than decreased, growing stronger with each battle. Now it's our turn to strike – if the Northeast People's Liberation Army can dominate the Northeast battlefield, then the People's Liberation Army in other liberated areas can do the same!
There is no doubt about this!

"After the strategic defense ends, the strategic counter-offensive begins—but what happens once the counter-offensive achieves continuous victories and our army becomes stronger?"

No sooner had Zhang Anping finished speaking than Chai Ying continued without hesitation:
"decisive battle!"

"Yes, the final battle!"

Zhang Anping said confidently, "I have no idea when the decisive battle will take place, but judging from the National Army's performance on the battlefield over the past year, the day of the decisive battle is definitely not far away. It could happen in two or three years, or even one or two years."

"What if this special forces unit...revolts at this point?"

Chai Ying gasped, then burst into ecstatic joy.

uprising……

is it possible?
Just kidding, what do you mean by "maybe"?

This is inevitable, isn't it!
Zhang Anping personally trained the special armed forces, and then Zheng Yaoxian "reaped the rewards." If they wanted to revolt, then it was inevitable!

But the most amazing thing is that Zhang Anping was "driven away," while Zheng Yaoxian reaped the benefits—what does this mean?
This means that even if there is responsibility, the person who drove Zhang Anping away is the one who is truly responsible.

His name must be Mao Renfeng!
Chai Ying's mind conjured up a picture of Mao Renfeng, and suddenly she found that this fat guy with big ears looked surprisingly pleasing to the eye.
Of course, Zhang Anping didn't tell the truth; to be precise, he didn't tell the whole story.

His plan goes beyond this. This special armed force is inconspicuous on the battlefield where the number of troops is often in the tens of thousands, but what about on the battlefield of bandit suppression?
What will happen to the elite force that Zhang Anping personally trained, a special force skilled in operations involving dozens or even hundreds of people, on the future battlefields against bandits?
It can probably only be described in four words:

Invincible!
But do you think Zhang Anping's scheme ends there?

Do not!
and also!

Zhang Anping's plan is to collude with the Americans in the future. He has connections within the American intelligence system, and with his extensive experience, the CIA will not be able to "let him go" in the future. At that time, special armed forces will be the gift Zhang Anping gives to the CIA...

In any case, the Americans of the future will definitely establish special forces directly under the intelligence agencies, and Zhang Anping is simply being generous with other people's money—just like the first pot of gold he made in the United States.

He was merely a "porter," a porter on the timeline, simply bringing things from the future to the present in advance.

Chai Ying is now completely relieved. Although she knew from the beginning that Zhang Anping wouldn't do anything foolish, the definition of this unit, which is still only on paper, is truly unsettling.

Chai Ying asked another related question: "Anping, are you doing this to keep the inevitable expansion of the Security Bureau's military within a certain range?"

Zhang Anping responded with a mocking tone: "Haha, Lao Cen's life is probably going to be tough from now on..."

Chai Ying glared at Zhang Anping with annoyance, but she knew she was right—as the battlefield situation deteriorated, the Nationalist government would inevitably launch various counterattacks, and the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics, which had just been suppressed, would inevitably be expanded.

Zhang Anping's move, however, was a preemptive interception, locking the inevitable expansion of the Security Bureau into two directions: infiltration and special armed forces.

And it is still under my control.

Zhang Anping's consistent style—anticipating and planning ahead!

Chai Ying, who had just glared at Zhang Anping, couldn't help but laugh in the end. But she laughed because the future that Zhang Anping analyzed was truly something to look forward to.

Victory is within reach!
The ideal I've been pursuing for years is finally within reach!
……

Compared to Chai Ying's barely suppressed laughter, Wang Tianfeng's mood was... exceptionally bad.

"Senior," Guo Qiyun still addressed Wang Tianfeng as he used to:
"The investigation into Qiu Ning and Qin Shunan has made no progress, and there is no evidence to suggest that the two have any problems."

After saying that, Guo Qiyun thought for a moment and then said:

"Perhaps there are some crucial details we missed. Otherwise... should I redo the secret investigation?"

Wang Tianfeng shook his head, his voice surprisingly hoarse: "No need, stop the investigation."

Wang Tianfeng's main focus was on investigating the "Qingsong Leak Case"—he narrowed down the scope to all participants in the case, but the main focus of the investigation was on the leadership, because even if there were undercover agents at the execution level, they did not have the ability to conduct such covert operations.

It would have been impossible for Liu Yujie, who was simply removed from office, to accomplish all of this.

Guo Qiyun had followed Wang Tianfeng for far too long, and upon keenly noticing the almost imperceptible dryness in Wang Tianfeng's voice, his expression turned serious.

"Chief, let me investigate further!"

Wang Tianfeng looked at Guo Qiyun and said, "I said... stop the investigation against them!"

Guo Qiyun lowered his head, but then a hint of fear flashed in his eyes.

There is a saying in the investigation:
If you discard all the impossibilities, what remains is only one possibility—even if it seems impossible!
Everyone else is fine, so the only problem is with Liu Yujie?
of course not!

Because there's still one person who hasn't been checked—

Shen Zui!

So, should we investigate him?
And that is why Guo Qiyun was terrified.

All the talented individuals promoted by Boss Dai had their brilliance overshadowed by Zhang Anping.

But this does not mean that they themselves are without light.

Take Shen Zui, for example. Aside from Zhang Anping, he's the youngest major general in the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics (BIS), formerly the head of the Operations Department, and now the head of the Intelligence Department—second only to the very top in the BIS's power structure. If he has problems…

Those were raging waves!

Guo Qiyun suppressed the pounding in his heart and awaited Wang Tianfeng's command—but at that moment, Wang Tianfeng inexplicably asked:
What are your thoughts on yesterday's bureau meeting?

Guo Qiyun immediately realized what Wang Tianfeng really wanted to ask. He never hid anything from Wang Tianfeng, and after a moment's thought, he used a common saying to express his feelings:
"What a joke!"

Clearly, he was referring to the "exchange of interests" that Zhang Anping made in order to punish Chen Ming.

Without a doubt, Zhang Anping's actions were essentially an exchange of interests.

However, this comment was clearly not directed at Zhang Anping.

Wang Tianfeng paused, then repeated:

"What utterly ridiculous nonsense is this?"

"Yes, it's utterly ridiculous!"

"You can go out first, I need some peace and quiet."

Guo Qiyun was stunned. He hadn't expected that Wang Tianfeng wouldn't have given the order to investigate Shen Zui!
Section Chief, could it be that your heart... is dead?
Guo Qiyun glanced at Wang Tianfeng with concern before leaving the room.

After he left, Wang Tianfeng's gaze became sharp and piercing as he slowly pulled an investigation report out of the drawer.

[Investigation Report on Li Xiaofeng!]

Wang Tianfeng slowly turned the pages, page after page, until the last page appeared before his eyes.

in conclusion:

This woman, Li Xiaofeng, is highly likely to have ties to the Communist Party, and it cannot be ruled out that she may be a hidden member of the Communist Party.

Looking at this conclusion, Wang Tianfeng slowly closed his eyes.

Was Guo Qiyun deliberately trying to lead me to investigate Shen Zui?
Guo Qiyun, all his investigation conclusions... must be overturned.

Guo Qiyun's words from just now inexplicably echoed in my mind again:
The big joke of slipping the world.

Wang Tianfeng's lips twitched. Everywhere he looked, there were things that were utterly ridiculous. Everywhere... was.

……

"Li Xiaofeng... Comrade!"

Zhang Anping uttered those five words with a strange expression.

He had the idea of ​​"packaging" Li Xiaofeng as his comrade, but it was just packaging—but after checking around, well, his idea was wasted, because... the other party really was his comrade!

To say it's strange wouldn't be quite right.

In this era, once it was clear that the Kuomintang could not save China or free China from its colonial fate, what choices would insightful people make?

Though my position is humble, I have never forgotten my country!
Li Xiaofeng was an inconspicuous little star, but after traveling all over the country and seeing too much numbness and despair, she made the decision to follow her heart, which is understandable.

Even if this decision is a betrayal to her fiancé.

This is the truth that Zhang Anping knows.

Thus, the final result was that although the paths were different, they led to the same destination.

"Old Wang, take your time and investigate again. We're not in a rush!"

Wang Tianfeng must be feeling very frustrated right now. After investigating for so long, all his results have to be overturned.

Zhang Anping wiped the smile from his face and looked out the window again.

He couldn't see Mao Renfeng's office, but Mao Renfeng was probably about to cry.

"Old Mao, don't cry!"

Zhang Anping didn't laugh this time because he's a professional.

……

Zhang Anping seemed to have guessed wrong. Mao Renfeng wasn't crying; instead, she was laughing!
Zhang Anping's fabricated report was submitted, and there was resistance from the GFB, but news came from the Executive Office:

The chief of staff was very interested. If nothing unexpected happened, he would summon the relevant personnel from the Security Bureau for questioning and then make a decision.

This basically means... it's all set!
So, of course Mao Renfeng had to laugh!
Once the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics (BIS) gains military power and independent financial control, then Mao Renfeng's BIS will inevitably become the second Military Intelligence Bureau—no, Mao Renfeng will definitely take the BIS to a level far exceeding the Military Intelligence Bureau, leaving his name in history!
"Overall, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages!"

Mao Renfeng lamented that although he failed to ruin Zhang Anping's image this time, Zhang Anping's big move, which he had been holding back for who knows how long, ultimately "benefited" him, Mao Renfeng!

Although Zhang Anping was like a stubborn plaster that couldn't be peeled off, Mao Renfeng was ultimately the legitimate bureau chief and would inevitably reap the biggest consequences.

"Moreover, if a special armed force is to be established next, Zhang Anping's energy will be diverted to it, and I will be able to live a peaceful life!"

"Finally, I can catch my breath."

In the past, it was Mao Renfeng who took the initiative to fight, but now, to be honest, he seeks stability in terms of strength—just like this "Chen Ming" incident. If Zhang Anping is willing to give up other benefits, he might not be unable to let Zhang Anping off the hook.

Unfortunately, Zhang Anping seemed to realize that he wouldn't let him off easily, and directly unleashed his ultimate move.

This actually made Mao Renfeng a fortune!

Just as he was about to take a satisfying sip of tea to soothe his throat, his secretary walked in.

"Director, this is a confidential telegram from Director Ming."

"Give me—I wonder what good news Akiko has for me this time!"

It was rare for Mao Renfeng to lose his composure in front of his secretary, and he used the term "Ming Zifang" (a reference to a famous Chinese scholar).

However, the secretary could understand—Minglou was a core member of Mao's faction, and this time he almost caused Zhang Anping to fall, securing huge benefits for Mao Renfeng. Moreover, he never abandoned Mao Renfeng during his low point, so how could Mao Renfeng not think highly of him?

How can we not regard them as brothers?
After Mao Renfeng received the telegram, his secretary shrewdly left, leaving Mao Renfeng to translate it himself.

But after Mao Renfeng translated the telegram, he was completely bewildered.

The telegram was brief:
The knife has been delivered; please, Chief, draw your blade and execute him!

"The knife has been delivered, shall we slash it?"

What does it mean that Mao Renfeng is confused and bewildered?
Could it be...

He then summoned his secretary, who had just left not long ago:

"Could you check if Mingtai has returned from the Northeast?"

Mao Renfeng saw Zhang Anping trying to win over Mingtai but smiled to himself—he knew that Zhang Anping was probably trying to use Mingtai to influence Minglou.

However, knowing that Mingjing was killed by Zhang Anping, would Minglou be willing to side with Zhang Anping?

Mingtai is close to Zhang Anping and is even willing to act as Zhang Anping's pawn to persuade Minglou to surrender. But what if Mingtai knew that Zhang Anping was the enemy who killed his sister?

Therefore, Mao Renfeng suppressed his laughter, waiting for the crucial moment to use Mingtai as a sharp knife to strike Zhang Anping.

This is also why Mao Renfeng thought the "knife" in Minglou's secret telegram referred to Mingtai.

He wondered if Minglou had confided in Mingtai.
The secretary accepted the order and left, returning shortly afterward.
"I just checked the schedule, Mingtai won't arrive until tonight."

It only arrived at night, and now they're saying the knife has been delivered?

This... doesn't make sense, does it?
Just as I was pondering this, Qiu Ning suddenly burst in, looking flustered.

"Chief, something's happened! Something really bad!"

"What's wrong?!"

Qiu Ning, barely suppressing his shock, said, "Yu Xiuning and Chen Ming, the couple, were mysteriously abducted in Shanghai!"

"catch?"

"It's a robbery! They've kidnapped them!"

Mao Renfeng's eyes widened.

Shanghai, mysterious abduction—his first thought was that Zhang Anping was behind it.

Shanghai is Zhang Anping's territory. How could we not suspect that Zhang Anping was behind this?
But a sentence inexplicably appeared in my mind:

The knife has been delivered; please, Chief, draw your blade and execute him!

Cold sweat immediately broke out on Mao Renfeng's forehead.

Holy crap, could this have been done by Minglou?
No, not perhaps!

But definitely!
Realizing this, Mao Renfeng had only one impulse:
He wanted to cry… (End of Chapter)
