The Bourne Counterattack

Chapter 435 Cutting
What is certain is that Cheng Mo has never met Wan Lilang, but I don’t know about Shen Mo, as he used to work in the Shanghai area.

Although his rank was not high at that time and he didn't know many people, he was not sure whether there would be Wan Lilang among the people he knew.

But since Shen Mo joined the "Dark Fire" group, he has cut off contact with some of his past acquaintances, especially those with a Military Control Commission identity.

It is not certain whether Wanlilang will pose a threat to "Dark Fire" if an assassination attempt is carried out on him.

If you fail to hit the target in one shot, you will expose yourself.

Except for the assassination missions carried out in the beginning, the subsequent missions carried out by "Dark Fire" were not assassination missions. Even if they were assassination missions, they had nothing to do with the Shanghai District.

Wan Lilang may at most know about a few assassinations carried out by the "Dark Fire" in the Shanghai area. He would not know what happened afterwards unless Lao Qi and Zheng Xiuyuan from the Shanghai area leaked the information.

As for whether Cao Lijun and Wang Tianmu would mention it to him, it is hard to say. Even Chen Mingchu, who surrendered earlier, probably doesn't know their situation.

But Chen Mingchu is very likely to know something. Chen Mingchu has served as the assistant secretary of the Shanghai District and the chief of the intelligence department...

Does No. 76 know about the "Dark Fire"? If he does, how much does he know about it?
This is really hard to say.

The person who contacted "Dark Fire" was Shen Mo. Although Xu Baichuan was also an insider, he had no horizontal connection with the Shanghai area, so it was impossible for him to leak the information.

Traitors appear one after another.

Cheng Mo felt that there was no need for "Dark Fire" to have any more horizontal connections with the Shanghai area, and he wanted to completely cut ties with the Shanghai area of ​​the Military Control Commission.

I just happen to have this excuse now.

Zheng Xiuyuan is in danger and may withdraw from Shanghai in the future. The Shanghai branch of the Military Control Commission and the "Dark Fire" will then go their separate ways.

So overnight, Cheng Mo sent a telegram to the Chongqing Bureau headquarters, requesting that "Dark Fire" cut off contact with the Shanghai area.

Wan Lilang rebelled, Zheng Xiuyuan was in danger, and Dai Yunong naturally received reports from Shanghai District 1. The losses were heavy, so he severely reprimanded Chen Gongshu.

The power of "Dark Fire" is too great. Once it is exposed, the Military Control Commission cannot afford it now. Cheng Mo wants to cut ties with Shanghai District 1.

After thinking it over again and again, he finally agreed.

In addition to the fact that "Dark Fire" controls the radio station and can directly contact the Chongqing Bureau headquarters, he also has Xu Baichuan as a line to maintain contact.

Moreover, the medicines smuggled out of Shanghai are also materials that the national army urgently needs. This secret source of medicines is also under the control of "Dark Fire".

This channel is of great value and can rescue many seriously injured national army soldiers, which greatly increases the weight of the Military Control Commission in the army.

Even if the entire Shanghai area was gone, as long as the "Dark Fire" existed, the Military Control Commission would not be considered a complete failure in Shanghai.

This time, it took less than half an hour for Cheng Mo to receive the instruction telegram personally drafted by Dai Yunong, agreeing to his request.

At the same time, he is also given more autonomy. For example, if it is discovered that Wan Lilang knows some information about "Dark Fire" and sells it to No. 76, sanctions can be imposed on him.

There is Wan Lilang, and there is Chen Mingchu. Cheng Mo is very concerned about Chen Mingchu. He has also thought about "sanctioning" him, but he has never found the opportunity.

Moreover, once action is taken against Chen Mingchu, it is necessary to consider the danger of "Cicada" and "Maintenance Worker" lurking in No. 76 being exposed.

Without the information provided by an undercover agent, it would be difficult to accurately grasp Chen Mingchu's whereabouts.

These traitors are all very afraid of death. They either bring enough people with them when they go out, or stay in their lair. They are not like the social traitors who work for the Japanese. As long as you are patient and send people to follow them, you can basically grasp the pattern of their whereabouts.

These people can't do that. They are in this line of work, stalking and tracking. If they are discovered, they will alert the enemy.

Therefore, assassinating these Military Control Commission traitors is much more difficult than those social traitors.

……

"Wan Lilang has been protected by them. Zhiliao has never even heard of this person's name. He must have used a pseudonym. A few days ago, Unit 76 arrested a lot of military intelligence personnel. The case was handled by one unit, but Zhiliao was not involved. Some things are hard to ask..."

News from Dachun.

He is Zhiliao's contact person. Zhiliao Ma Hetu used to be Wang Tianmu's adjutant. Although he was undercover in No. 76, because Chen Mingchu had a good relationship with Wang Tianmu and Ma Hetu slept with Wang Tianmu's concubine, he got a specialist position in one place, but the position was a bit awkward.

Ma Hetu was very cautious and did whatever his superiors told him to do. He did not ask too many questions and did not interfere. He was Wang Tianmu's adjutant and did know some secrets of the Northern Region of the Military Control Commission. When he defected to the military control commission, he also gave him a lot of secrets to help him advance.

These secrets are also specially selected.

Therefore, because of this information, the Military Control Commission's Northern District did suffer some losses, but this was all to help Ma Hetu stay in No. 76.

Moreover, Ma Hetu's defection to No. 76 created a time difference, which was enough for the Military Control Commission to notify those in the northern region who had had contact with Ma Hetu to withdraw in advance. Of course, some small minions were also left behind and were captured by the other side.

Ma Hetu was only Wang Tianmu's adjutant and knew very little about the secrets. It was a great honor for No. 76 to give him the identity of a "specialist".

No. 76's trust in him is discounted.

Therefore, he was naturally not valued in No. 76, and was able to participate in very few operations. He was basically responsible for miscellaneous and logistical work.

But this is very suitable for Ma Hetu. If he directly participates in the operation and encounters his own people, what should he do? Capture or kill?

However, occasionally, he would get the opportunity to interrogate captured Military Intelligence Bureau personnel, so he could be considered a qualified and experienced spy.

"Let him continue to inquire about the relevant situation, report immediately if there is any situation, and pay attention to his own safety." Cheng Mo instructed Dachun.

"clear."

"Zhiliao also said that Lin Shiqun has been under a lot of pressure recently, and Ding Mocun is somewhat dissatisfied with him, especially during the time when Miss Pinglu was in trouble. He felt that Lin Shiqun was deliberately targeting him, openly and covertly, and the two of them were somewhat on edge."

"Okay, I got it. Tell Zhiliao not to get involved in the internal fight between Ding Moqun and Lin Shiqun. Pay attention to the movements of Lin Zhijiang, Chen Mingchu and Ma Xiaotian to see who they support." Cheng Mo thought for a while and gave the instructions.

"it is good."

……

Cheng Mo took Yuan Xueyi's "On the Rise of Asia and the Founding of a Nation" back home.

The police station's office is not a place where secrets can be kept. If someone sees it, it will cause an uproar.

Since there was no intention to hide it, Su Moer naturally saw the booklet.

The signature was naturally not Yuan Xueyi, but a man named Yan, let's call him "Mr. Yan". After reading it carefully, Su Moer still admired him in her heart.

"Amo, your senior is very knowledgeable. This article is very misleading. It is easy for ordinary people to be misled by it and develop cognitive biases."

"Have you read it?"

"I had nothing to do at home, so I read it twice. It's really amazing. No wonder he is so highly valued by the Japanese."

"I also have to write an article based on his booklet and then publish it," said Cheng Mo.

"That's quite difficult. Where do you plan to start?" Su Moer said.

"I still have no idea. How about you give me some advice?"

"Okay, but I may not be as deep as you think. Don't laugh at me when the time comes." Su Moer thought for a moment and nodded.

"Just deal with it. Even if it's a little shallow, it doesn't matter. I don't think they will care too much about the specific content of the article. It's just a matter of attitude and position." Cheng Mo said with a smile.

"How do they treat you?"

"The consultant's two thousand dollars a month in consulting fees is basically free money."

"It's really not a small amount. I'm a doctor, and if you add up my salary, allowances, and bonuses, I don't get that much in half a year. You don't do anything for a month, and they give you that much."

"Don't joke with me like that. If it weren't for the mission, I wouldn't want to take this money."

"What do you want to do? Use the money given by the Japanese to fight against the Japanese. Then, no matter how much they give you, you can take whatever you want!"

"That's true."
