My spy diary

Chapter 234 Intelligence (please vote)

"Your Excellency the Director: It has been found that Deputy Station Chief Bao Hongfei has been secretly arrested by the Japanese Special High Police. The specific circumstances are yet to be investigated. The 'shoemaker' of the Northeast Station respectfully detained."

This is the content of the telegram. Zhang Yi estimated that this "shoemaker" should be an undercover agent who has infiltrated the Japanese Special High Police, otherwise he would not be so well-informed.

There is a saying that you get up where you fell, but sometimes things are unexpected and not subject to personal will. Bao Hongfei did not get up, but fell even worse.

"Does the Northeastern Station know anything?"

"The telegram has been forwarded." Boss Dai sighed, frowned, and leaned his head on the sofa.

We had just captured the Japanese spy Okada Yoshimasa and had no time to celebrate when the bad news came. It was really exhausting.

Intelligence Section Chief Yang Rong carefully observed Boss Dai's expression and asked, "Director, how do we handle this matter?"

Dai Chunfeng snorted and asked, "What do you think?"

"This subordinate..." Yang Rong smiled timidly, glanced at Zhang Yi, and suddenly said:

"According to the estimated time, Bao Hongfei should not have rebelled yet. Deputy Section Chief Zhang has just captured the Japanese spy chief Okada Yoshimasa. Anyway, his subordinates are dead or injured. He is a commander without any troops. He is not of much value. How about considering an exchange?"

"Humph, what do you mean by not having great value? That's easy for Chief Yang to say." He Zhiyuan, Chief of the Operations Department, put out his cigarette and sneered:
"This is the first time we have captured a spy of the highest rank in the Japanese military. As long as we can persuade him to defect, the political significance itself is greater than anything else. So I don't agree. If you want to exchange him, you can catch a Japanese spy leader yourself. Besides, we are all in this line of work. Who can guarantee that he will not fall into trouble after joining the Special High Section?"

Yang Rong smiled bitterly. In his opinion, the Operations Division was lucky to have caught Okada Yoshimasa. Where could he find another spy chief? Did he really think that Japanese spies were free?
At the same time, no one can guarantee that Bao Hongfei will not fall into the water under the coercion and inducement of the Japanese spies.

After all, in this business, if you are arrested, your loyalty will be questioned.

If he falls into the water and provides the radio station with the list of people inside, the Northeast region will suffer a heavy blow.

Traitors are like the domino effect. When one traitor falls into the water, it often leads to a whole group of traitors. When a whole group of traitors falls into the water, it leads to a whole group of traitors.

The traitor becomes a traitor and a spy, and then turns around and helps the Japanese special organization to attack the Secret Service Department even more fiercely.

This was also what Boss Dai was most worried about. When Yang and He finished talking and the scene fell into silence, he asked again, "Where are the others?"

Everyone looked at each other in confusion, and no one spoke. At this time, Mao Qiwu walked in with a greasy face.

He stepped forward and handed Dai Chunfeng a telegram, saying, "Director, we have received news from the Northeast Station that a large number of personnel have been transferred and there are no losses for the time being."

After hearing this, the haze in Boss Dai's heart disappeared, and he smiled instantly. He glanced at Yang Rong and said:

"Ask someone to tell Bao Hongfei not to betray his country and organization and become a sinner of the nation."

After a pause, he asked again: "His family should be in Hunan, right? In this case, let his father write him a personal letter. Chen Ming is amazing. As for the exchange, we will see what happens next."

"Yes." Yang Rong saluted and accepted the order.

The matter was temporarily dealt with and everyone got up and dispersed.

Only Dai Chunfeng and Mao Qiwu were left in the office. Boss Dai's face darkened again and he frowned, "I'm afraid Bao Hongfei is going to do something bad."

"Boss, are you saying he will fall into the water?"

"Who knows?" Boss Dai shook his head. "Compared to the Northeast, I am more worried about Shanghai. The old man has repeatedly told me that the position in Shanghai cannot be lost. He asked me to mobilize Du Yuesheng, Huang Jinrong, and Zhang Xiaohu to leave Shanghai together.
Boss Du went to Hong Kong, but Mr. Huang used his old age and frailty as an excuse and refused to leave Shanghai. He was old and incompetent and would never achieve anything significant.

I am worried about Zhang Xiaohu, who is ambitious and has no sense of national identity. He is now in cahoots with the Japanese and has established a traitorous organization called the Peace Promotion Association to serve the Japanese army's economic plunder and take advantage of the national crisis to make a fortune. If he is not curbed, the Japanese will soon extend their hands into the concessions, and the situation of the secret service in Shanghai will be difficult."

"Why not..." Mao Qiwu raised his hand and made a ruthless gesture.

Boss Dai waved his hand and said, "Not to mention that many people in the Shanghai area are helping members, and Boss Du is his sworn brother. If we take action against Zhang, we cannot do so without Boss Du's understanding and support."

"Well, draft a telegram for me to invite him to Hankou for a talk, and send another telegram to the Shanghai District, asking them to secretly draft a plan to sanction Zhang."

After saying this, Dai Chunfeng thought of Bao Hongfei again, and thought: "Send a telegram to Beiping, and let Wang Tianlin and Chen Gongshu be prepared. If Bao can't turn back, immediately impose sanctions."

When Zhang Yi returned to the Operations Department, he heard the good news.

Half an hour ago, the operations team led by Monkey and Qian Xiaosan won a great victory.

Except for four people who were killed after encountering stubborn resistance in one hideout, all members of the other two spy groups were arrested.

At this moment, several interrogation rooms in the basement were already screaming, and the shrill screams even reached Zhang Yi's office across the floors. Zhang Yi was not interested in the interrogation of ordinary spies. At this moment, he closed his eyes and rested, receiving today's intelligence.

[Today’s information has been refreshed]

[1. You met Okada Yoshimasa today and obtained relevant information - Okada Yoshimasa has a safe house at No. 143 Paris Road in the French Concession, which contains a large number of calligraphy and antiques.]

Zhang Yi sneered. Needless to say, these calligraphy and paintings and antiques must have been looted from China.

[2. You met Dai Chunfeng today and obtained relevant intelligence - Dai Chunfeng, through the relationship with the Shaanxi Electric Power Administration, dispatched Wang Keyi, the director of the Northwest and Regional Radio Branch, to be the director of the Yan'an Telegraph Bureau. With this as a foothold, he gradually developed the organization and carried out espionage activities.]

[3. You met Dai Chunfeng today and obtained relevant intelligence. Dai Chunfeng ordered Zhang Yanfang, the head of the Northwest First District, to use small vendors to enter the border area and collect intelligence.]

Seeing this information, Zhang Yi shook his head. Even after the Anti-Japanese War broke out and the Kuomintang and the Red Army cooperated for the second time, Boss Dai's strong anti-Red consciousness did not diminish in the slightest.

Open slogans cannot be shouted, but covert activities have never stopped.

It was difficult to directly send spies into the border areas, so Boss Dai began to take unconventional approaches. This was because the vendors were highly mobile and inconspicuous, so even if they failed, it would not cause much loss to the secret service.

But would it really work to bribe some merchants and vendors to bribe the vendors in the border areas? Zhang Yi was very skeptical.

After the Chang'an Incident, Zhang handed over Yan'an to the Red Party, but in order to show its orthodoxy, the Guo Party insisted that the county magistrate must be appointed by the Guo Party. However, after arriving in Chang'an, this person hesitated and did not dare to take office, let alone these vendors.

Just like not long ago, the Tianshui Headquarters of the Military Commission decided to send an investigation team to that place for investigation. Boss Dai once again sent Guo Xiaoming, a correspondent directly under the Special Service Department, to accompany the investigation. After half a month of round trip, Guo wrote a report based on what he saw and heard in Yan'an and handed it to Dai Chunfeng.

Boss Dai was very satisfied after reading it, thinking that this was the first time that the Secret Service had successfully collected high-quality intelligence from there, so Guo Xiaoming was transferred to the Red Party Section as section chief.

However, as soon as Guo Xiaoming was promoted and made a fortune, someone reported that his reports were fabricated. After a thorough investigation, Boss Dai became furious and directly dismissed the man and sent him to prison.

[4. You met Dai Chunfeng today and obtained relevant information - Dai Chunfeng secretly ordered the Northwest District to secretly sanction the Red Party general Yang Xiake.]

This piece of information surprised Zhang Yi. Yang Xiake had studied in Japan a long time ago. After returning to China, he joined the Red Party. He dropped out of the first class of Whampoa Military Academy and was later appointed as a major general senator by Chang.

However, because he opposed the Fruit Party's attack on the Red Party, he broke with Chang. Chang felt that his student had betrayed him and hated him deeply.

In October 37, the Red Party established the Eighth Route Army (some book friends have misunderstandings, so I will say a few words here. The full-scale war of resistance began, and the second cooperation took place. In August, the Red Party army was reorganized into the Eighth Route Army, with the full name of the Eighth Route Army of the National Revolutionary Army. In September, it was renamed the Eighteenth Group Army, and carried out independent guerrilla warfare and mobile warfare.) office in Chang'an. Yang Xiake was in charge of united front work and was stationed in Chang'an as a major general councilor of the Eighteenth Group Army. He was responsible for liaison with various leaders of the Guo Party.

Because Chang hated him so much, Dai Chunfeng had secretly ordered the Northwest District spies to keep a close watch on him and collect information about his activities in Chang'an.
Unexpectedly, Dai Chunfeng had already developed murderous intentions at this time.

Zhang Yi was thinking about how to send the information out when he saw Monkey knocking on the door.

"Section Chief."

"Any breakthrough?"

Monkey said, "Only one person confessed. The others are all diehards. Our brothers who interrogated them are exhausted."

Zhang Yi raised his eyebrows and asked, "Who confessed?"

"This man is called Xiao Yinyilang. He is a radio operator. He just graduated from the Japanese spy school and joined the Song Agency."

Zhang Yi nodded and said, "Let's go to the interrogation room."

Arriving at the interrogation room, Zhang Yi saw the plainclothes officers panting with exhaustion. He waved his hand and said, "You have all worked hard, brothers. Take a break first. When you have recovered your strength, you can continue the work."

As he said this, he took out a stack of bills and said, "It's my treat today, order whatever you want."

"Thank you, Chief." The agents smiled happily.

Zhang Yi waved his hand, took the interrogation record and browsed through it, saying: "Except for the two intelligence team leaders, there is no need to interrogate the others. These people are low-level members of the Japanese spies and don't know much intelligence. However, what this little Yin Yilang confessed is of some value."

"Yes, Chief, according to what Xiao Yinyilang said, they received an order to use disguised identities to assist the Special High Section in completing an escort mission, but he doesn't know the specific mission either."

Zhang Yi started to think, what on earth is the Special High Police trying to transport into Wuhan that requires so many people at once?
"Where's the time?"

"We will meet at the foot of Qinglong Mountain at 3 pm tomorrow. Only their team leader knows the specific code for the meeting."

"Then continue the interrogation." Zhang Yi ordered, and a plan quietly emerged in his mind.
