Spy War: I am the Living King of Hell

Chapter 269 Wang Tianyi betrayed and Xu Zuoyong was arrested
Upon hearing this, Wang Tianyi fell silent. He had already fallen out with Dai Chunfeng, and he didn't know where Dai Chunfeng would send him. If Dai Chunfeng sent him to Beijing and Tianjin, it would be fine, but if Dai Chunfeng sent him to the Northeast, then what future would he have in his life as he was already not young anymore.

To be honest, he doesn't really care about his future, but he cares about his face. His former younger brother is now shitting on his head, which makes Wang Tianyi very angry and it is also a hurdle that he cannot get over.

But Wang Tianyi was somewhat hesitant to make up his mind to surrender to the Japanese and become a traitor.

Seeing Wang Tianyi's hesitation, Chen Minchu quickly added warmth and said, "Stationmaster Wang, I actually have a way to make you surrender to the Japanese without making you feel so uncomfortable."

Hearing this, Wang Tianyi immediately became interested and asked hurriedly, "What method?"

"Stationmaster Wang, if you take the initiative to surrender to the Japanese, you will really become a traitor, but what if you are passive?"

"Xiao Chen, what do you mean?"

"Stationmaster Wang, how about this? You deliberately reveal your whereabouts, get caught by the men from Unit 76, and then surrender to them. This will at least prove that you did not voluntarily surrender to the Japanese, but did so to save your life."

After hearing this, Wang Tianyi thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "No, I still can't surrender to the Japanese. Xiao Chen, I will pretend that you never said anything today. Come on, continue drinking."

Chen Minchu felt a little regretful after hearing this, but he had achieved his goal. Although Wang Tianyi did not agree with his suggestion, the fact that Wang Tianyi was not prepared to report him was enough to show that Wang Tianyi still had some ideas in his mind. It was not difficult to infer from his words that he had colluded with the Japanese or traitors, but Wang Tianyi skipped this point. In fact, in a sense, Wang Tianyi had already made a decision, and the rest required him to take the initiative to do it.

When the two were drunk, Wang Tianyi said vaguely: "Xiao Chen, tomorrow afternoon at three o'clock, let's go to the teahouse on Jinling Road to drink tea together."

Upon hearing this, Chen Minchu paused, then was overjoyed. He had already understood what Wang Tianyi meant. Wang Tianyi could not take the initiative to say that he wanted to surrender to the Japanese, but he could help Wang Tianyi.

"Stationmaster Wang, I understand. Don't worry, I will be there on time tomorrow."

……

The next morning, Chen Minchu sent a contact code and met Li Qun.

"Why are you so anxious to see me?" Li Qun asked after seeing Chen Minchu.

"Brother Li, there's hope for Wang Tianyi!" Chen Minchu said excitedly.

Hearing this, Li Qun was delighted and immediately asked, "Brother Chen, tell me more details."

Upon hearing this, Chen Minchu happily told Li Qun about his conversation with Wang Tianyi last night. Li Qun was very happy after listening to it.

"Brother Chen, you have helped me a lot. If you can really persuade Wang Tianyi to rebel, you will be the first to do so."

After getting Li Qun's promise, Chen Minchu smiled happily. He seemed to see beautiful and comfortable days waving at him.

"Brother Li, in order not to arouse other people's suspicion, I will not show up this afternoon. Here is Wang Tianyi's photo and the address of the teahouse. The rest is up to you."

"No problem, this is very appropriate." Li Qun said with a smile.

After Li Qun and Chen Minchu parted ways, they immediately went to No. 76, selected more than 20 good men, drove two cars to Jinling Street to arrest Wang Tianyi.

At 2: in the afternoon, Wang Tianyi came to the teahouse on Jinling Street and ordered a pot of tea to drink alone. Half an hour later, Wang Tianyi came out of the teahouse.

When he was less than 10 meters away from the teahouse, a burly man suddenly appeared behind him silently, and then a pistol was put against Wang Tianyi's waist.

"Don't move, follow me." said the burly man.

As soon as he finished speaking, a car drove in front of the two of them. Wang Tianyi didn't resist at all and got into the car obediently, as if he was waiting to be caught on purpose.

When the group returned to No. 76, Li Qun came out with a smile. Seeing Wang Tianyi's hands tied, Li Qun deliberately said angrily: "Who told you to tie up Brother Wang? Untie Brother Wang quickly."

Upon hearing this, his men immediately took action to untie Wang Tianyi.

"Brother Wang, it's been a long time since we last met. I knew that you had come to Shanghai, so I wanted to talk to you and reminisce about the past. I had no choice but to do this. I hope you can understand."

Wang Tianyi did not say anything. Seeing this, Li Qun waved his hand and asked his men to disperse. He then took Wang Tianyi to the "VIP room" he had prepared for him.

The so-called "VIP room" is actually a cell, but the reason why this cell is called a "VIP room" is that it is definitely different. This room is equipped with all daily necessities. It can be said that except that Wang Tianyi cannot go out, everything is the same as outside.

Soon after the two of them walked in, someone brought food into the room, and soon a table of banquet was set.

After everyone left, Li Qun said to Wang Tianyi, "Brother Wang, please."

Upon hearing this, Wang Tianyi did not hesitate to enjoy the wine and meat. Li Qun just talked about friends and established good relations, and did not make any other requests.

Wang Tianyi naturally understood what Li Qun meant. Li Qun wanted to recruit him. Although Wang Tianyi already had the intention to surrender, he did not want to agree to Li Qun's surrender so easily. If he surrendered too easily, he would be looked down upon.

But what Wang Tianyi did not expect was that in just one day, Li Qun released Wang Tianyi without interrogating him or offering to surrender.

In fact, this was Li Qun's masterpiece. He knew that when dealing with a person like Wang Tianyi, he must never let him surrender. As the saying goes, "a forced melon is not sweet." He wanted to recruit Wang Tianyi, but he wanted to recruit Wang Tianyi to use him completely, rather than "being in Cao's camp but having his heart with Han."

He felt that Wang Tianyi would willingly surrender to him sooner or later. Even if Wang Tianyi did not surrender to him, he would inevitably be suspected. Why did No. 76 arrest him and then release him? This was an open conspiracy and Wang Tianyi could not escape it at all.

Wang Tianyi's arrest and release were both silent, but it caused a sensation in public opinion. Not only did everyone in Shanghai know about it, but even the Military Control Commission headquarters in Shancheng got the news.

The day after Wang Tianyi was released, Chen Minchu found Wang Tianyi. He came to deliver a telegram to Wang Tianyi. The content of this telegram was sent by Dai Chunfeng to the Shanghai Station. The specific content was to ask the Shanghai Station to eliminate Wang Tianyi.

"Stationmaster Wang, I didn't expect Dai Chunfeng to distrust you so much. You have been brothers for many years, but he has no mercy at all. If I hadn't received this telegram, the consequences would be disastrous."

Chen Minchu spoke with certainty, and Wang Tianyi believed it without a doubt. In fact, even if Wang Tianyi didn't believe it, there was nothing he could do. Now he had been forced to the edge of the cliff.

Even if he did not join No. 76 and returned to the Military Control Commission, would the Military Control Commission still trust him? Would Dai Chunfeng still use him?

He thought not. If he were Dai Chunfeng, he would not use himself again. This was Li Qun's conspiracy, which made you unable to advance or retreat and could only let him manipulate you.

"Xiao Chen, go contact Li Qun and tell him I want to talk to him."

Chen Minchu understood that Wang Tianyi had seen through everything, but this step was also his own choice. Since the day he and Dai Chunfeng had a falling out, the foreshadowing of today's result had been laid. Not long after, Li Qun and Chen Minchu met with Wang Tianyi together.

Seeing Wang Tianyi, Li Qun laughed and said, "Brother Wang, I know you can make the most suitable choice. Let's work together to do something big in Shanghai."

Hearing this, Wang Tianyi also smiled and said, "Thank you, Brother Li, for thinking highly of me. From now on, I will work with you, and I have a big gift for Brother Li."

"Oh, what kind of gift is that? If Brother Wang can call it a gift, then it must not be an ordinary gift." Li Qun asked with a smile.

"Xu Zuoyong, Stationmaster of Huhai Station, what do you think of this gift, Brother Li?"

Li Qun was overjoyed when he heard this. The reason why he was in a hurry to persuade Wang Tianyi to surrender was to find Xu Zuoyong's whereabouts. Xu Zuoyong had the clue about Yang Xuewu that he was thinking about.

"Brother Li, do you know where Xu Zuoyong lives?" Li Qun asked hurriedly.

"Yes, I once followed Xu Zuoyong and found out where he lived. Even if he knew that I was arrested, I don't think he would move away." Wang Tianyi vowed.

"Hahaha, that's great, Brother Wang, your news is definitely a great gift." Li Qun laughed happily.

If we were to say who Wang Tianyi hated the most, it would definitely be Xu Zuoyong. If it weren't for Xu Zuoyong, how could he have fallen out with Dai Chunfeng, and how could he have ended up in the situation he is in now, about to become a traitor hated by everyone. Since he has defected to No. 76, he must take revenge on Xu Zuoyong and let Xu Zuoyong know the price of humiliating him.

"Brother Li, there is no time to lose. I think we should act quickly. If Xu Zuoyong senses something is wrong and runs away early, then all our efforts will be in vain."

"No problem. I'll take people to arrest Xu Zuoyong right away."

"Okay, then I wish Brother Li immediate success."

After returning to No. 76, Li Qun immediately gathered his men and rushed towards Xu Zuoyong's residence.

At this time, Xu Zuoyong was walking around the room anxiously. The headquarters sent a telegram asking him to find out whether Wang Tianyi had betrayed them. However, more than a day had passed and no definite news came, which made Xu Zuoyong very annoyed.

Although he had the Shanghai Station hidden secretly after hearing the news that Wang Tianyi might betray him, no matter how well they hid, as long as Wang Tianyi betrayed him, everything would become bad. Who knew how much Wang Tianyi knew about the situation at the Shanghai Station.

Moreover, Wang Tianyi is not only familiar with the Shanghai Station, he is also familiar with the Military Control Commission network in the Beijing-Tianjin area. If Wang Tianyi betrays, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Just at this moment, there was a sudden hurried knock on the door, which startled Xu Zuoyong.

"Stationmaster, a group of unidentified people appeared at the street corner and are heading towards where we live."

Hearing the guard's voice, Xu Zuoyong hurried to the window. Soon he saw a group of people rushing towards his apartment through the window. Xu Zuoyong was immediately terrified.

Then Xu Zuoyong immediately loaded his pistol, opened the door and said to his four guards, "Follow me."

When the five people arrived at the door of the apartment, the unidentified people were less than thirty meters away from them.

"Stop!" the group suddenly shouted.

Upon hearing this, Xu Zuoyong fired a shot at the opposite side without saying a word. How could Xu Zuoyong not understand the current situation? His residence was exposed, and the group of people in front of him must be the traitors of No. 76.

Although Xu Zuoyong was very puzzled as to why his residence was exposed, he had always been very careful in Shanghai. Only his four guards knew where he lived, and almost no one else knew it. However, now was not the time to think about this problem. What he had to do now was to escape quickly. Only after he escaped would he have time to investigate this issue.

However, since No. 76 had already determined Xu Zuoyong's residence, how could they be unprepared? When they reached the street corner while fighting and running, they saw a dozen people pointing guns at them. The people who were chasing them also caught up with them, and they were surrounded.

"Put down your weapons or you will be killed without mercy," the group shouted.

Upon hearing this, Xu Zuoyong's face turned very ugly. He knew that if he didn't lay down his weapon today, this day next year would be his death anniversary.

But laying down arms meant surrendering. Xu Zuoyong did not want to surrender to the enemy and become a traitor rather than die.

"Brothers, are you afraid of death?" Xu Zuoyong suddenly said to the four guards.

"Stationmaster, we are not afraid." The four people replied.

In fact, they may be afraid in their hearts. There are definitely people in this world who are not afraid of death, but they are very few. The reason why they answered that they are not afraid of death is that they do not want to be labeled as traitors. For some people with dignity, dignity is much more important than death.

"Well, you guys are still with me on the road to the underworld. This way, I, Xu Zuoyong, won't have lived in vain."

After that, Xu Zuoyong pointed his gun at the traitors at the street intersection and shot. His four men did the same. The traitors on the opposite side also shot, but they had received orders to keep Xu Zuoyong alive, so they only shot at Xu Zuoyong's four guards and did not shoot at Xu Zuoyong himself. Unfortunately, Xu Zuoyong was shot anyway, but his wounds were not fatal.

Soon, the four guards on Xu Zuoyong's side were killed, and Xu Zuoyong himself was shot twice. Most importantly, Xu Zuoyong had no bullets left.

Seeing that Xu Zuoyong had no bullets left, the traitors rushed forward and quickly controlled Xu Zuoyong.

"Traitor dog! Let me go!" Xu Zuoyong cursed angrily.

But at this time, Xu Zuoyong, who was captured, had already become a prey. What could he do by just cursing?

And because he was shot twice, he fainted after just saying a few words.

When Xu Zuoyong was caught, Li Qun appeared. Seeing that Xu Zuoyong was unconscious, Li Qun immediately ordered people to send Xu Zuoyong to the hospital for treatment.

"Remember, I want him to be alive. If he dies, there is no need for you to live. Do you understand?" Li Qun said to his subordinates.

"Clear."

When his men took Xu Zuoyong to the hospital, Li Qun went to see Wang Tianyi again in a happy mood. Wang Tianyi was of great value, and just capturing Xu Zuoyong would not satisfy Li Qun. He had to squeeze out all the value from Wang Tianyi.

Li Qun understood that as long as he squeezed out all the value from Wang Tianyi, he would be able to gain a foothold among the Japanese. From now on, the Japanese would truly look up to him.
