Chapter 868: The Plan of Assistance

 The next day.

  Chongqing.

 It is a rainy day.

  No. 19, Luojiawan.

 Juntong, Dai Chunfeng's office.

Dai Chunfeng stood at the window, opening the blinds and looking out. A car sped in. Several agents jumped out of the car and escorted a man who had been blindfolded with black cloth and his mouth gagged out of the car. .

 Dai Juzuo stared at the group of people below and said calmly, "I want to see the confession within twelve hours."

“It won’t take twelve hours.” Sheng Shuyu exclaimed, “Take a seat and wait for the good news.”

Looking at Sheng Shuyu leaving happily, Qi Wu said with a smile, "It's rare to catch a Japanese, everyone wants to practice their skills."

 Dai Chunfeng nodded.

 It is extremely difficult to capture Japanese prisoners.

 According to official government statistics, since the outbreak of the all-out Anti-Japanese War in the 26th year of the Republic of China, nearly one million Japanese and puppet troops have been annihilated in two years. However, less than a hundred Japanese prisoners of war were actually captured.

Because prisoners of war were difficult to capture, the commission even offered a reward to the army. Each Japanese soldier captured alive would receive a reward of fifty French coins.

For ordinary soldiers of the national army, fifty French coins is a considerable reward. However, according to the military commander's investigation, the lower-level soldiers in the army would rather kill the Japanese soldiers than keep prisoners to receive the reward.

The Japanese are either humans or a bunch of beasts. They have committed heinous crimes in China. It is no wonder that the lower-class soldiers behaved this way.

It is difficult to capture Japanese prisoners alive on the battlefield, and it is even more difficult to capture real Japanese agents alive on the agent front.

This Japanese agent was knocked unconscious by a collapsed house during the arrest, so he was captured by the military commander. The entire military commander felt like a treasure.

“Has there been a call back from Cheng Wufang?” Dai Chunfeng asked.

"Not yet." Qi Wu said. He thought about it and felt that it was still necessary to put in a few words of kindness for the little fellow. "Secretary, it is difficult to find out where the 'female gentleman' lives. Cheng Wufang also needs time. .”

Cheng Qianfan sent a secret telegram, one of which reported that Zhao Yi and Qiujiang Pier failed to assassinate Wang and killed a Japanese soldier. After firing several shots at the ship where Wang was riding, he shouted slogans and shot himself to death. It is said that the citizens of Shanghai were greatly encouraged and despised Wang Chuhai's perverse behavior, and everyone admired Zhao Yi's tragedy.

 And ask for credit and compensation for Zhao Yi.

 Two reports of top-secret intelligence to the headquarters and Wang Kehai has formally proposed to the Japanese side the establishment of a so-called "central peace government".

First, Zhao Yi's feat of assassinating Wang shocked the citizens of Shanghai and inspired a wave of national opposition to Wang's reclamation. The momentum planned by the Wang faction to welcome Wang's reclamation was directly hit hard, and the Wang family even had to Delaying the time of disembarkation and landing was a joke.

 This is why Dai Chunfeng was willing to sacrifice an important agent to assassinate Wang.

 Dai Chunfeng reported this situation to the leader. The committee was overjoyed and praised the military commander very much.

As for the second one, the 'Blue Bird' captured top-secret information on the Wang family's plan to split the country, which was an even greater achievement. While the principal was angry that he and the Wang family were going further and further down the wrong path, he learned that this information came from Cheng Qianfan. Hands, quite pleased and encouraged.

Dai Chunfeng then called Xiao Mian and asked the Shanghai Special Investigation Team to find ways to investigate Wang Kehai's residence.

Although the principal did not say it explicitly, Dai Chunfeng understood the leader's thoughts and must not let Wang Chunhai's move to establish a pseudo-central government come to fruition.

To punish Wang Kehai, the first thing to do is to find out where he is.

"This matter is extremely difficult, of course I know it." Dai Chunfeng said in a deep voice. He looked at the sky outside the window, "Do your best and obey the destiny."

 Wang Kehai, who has arrived in Shanghai and is protected by Japan, is already extremely difficult to assassinate. Getting rid of Wang Kehai at this time is a hundred times more difficult than the situation in Hanoi.

After a moment, Dai Chunfeng suddenly said, "Pseudoelectricity..."

 Chi Wu picked up the folder and took out the pen. He held the folder in one hand and the pen in the other, preparing to record the message.

“Call Yuyao and ask Yu to go to Shanghai safely and announce the award to the Shanghai Special Situation Group on your behalf.” Dai Chunfeng said in a deep voice.

 “Yes!” Qi Wu nodded and said.

Yu Ping'an was serving as director of the Yuyao Station of Military Command at this time.

 …

Putting away the folder, Qi Wu was about to send the report when Dai Chunfeng suddenly asked, "How is the situation over there with Tan Pinggong?"

“‘Qiqiaohua’ has secretly sent a message to Tan Pinggong, but Tan Pinggong has not responded.” Qi Wu said.

“Call Qiqiaohua and ask them to arrange for someone to meet Tan Pinggong directly.” Dai Chunfeng snorted coldly. This Tan Pinggong would not be punished with a toast.

He looked at Qi Wu and asked, "Has Tan Pinggong secretly defected to the Red Party?"

"I don't know." Qi Wu frowned and shook his head, "You can order Xiao Mian to investigate this person secretly."

 “Okay.” Dai Chunfeng nodded.

Dai Chunfeng has a clear division of labor in the use of "Xiao Mian" and "Qiqiaohua". "Qiqiaohua" is used very cautiously due to its special identity, while "Xiao Mian" is used relatively frequently, for example, when he wants to investigate someone. For such things, 'Xiao Mian', who controls the huge Shanghai special situation group, is more suitable.

 …

　　No. 22, Xue Huali Road.

 In the office of the deputy chief inspector, "Mr. Xiao Cheng" stood up slowly and stretched out.

He was playing with a jade ring in his hand. It was a small gadget given to him by his master Ma Yishou when he came to visit him in the morning.

In the corridor, Cheng Qianfan saw Su Zhe walking by in a hurry without saying hello, and he couldn't help but snorted coldly.

 “It’s so frizzy.” Cheng Qianfan cursed.

Coming to the courtyard on the first floor, Cheng Qianfan met Shuli Zhao who happened to be passing by the courtyard. The two of them exchanged pleasantries without smiling.

Looking at Shu Li Zhao’s leaving figure, ‘Mr. Xiao Cheng’’s face was gloomy and uncertain, as if he was thinking about something.

 It is a cloudy day.

 The sun is not strong.

 Even a little weak.

 Cheng Qianfan came to the medical room to chat with Lao Huang.

 “Lao Huang, give me some more toothache medicine.” Cheng Qianfan said.

 “You can’t drink alcohol.” Old Huang, who was familiar with the situation, prepared the medicine and said.

“You’re an old drunkard, but you said I can’t drink wine.” Cheng Qianfan laughed and cursed.

 Lao Huang wrapped the pills in white paper and placed them on the table. There was also a note on the table.

 Cheng Qianfan lowered his eyes and quickly glanced at the words on the note.

What the note said was that Tang Hao, an underground member of our party, was arrested by the Gendarmerie Headquarters. The organization hoped that the special party branch in the French Concession could try to find out about Comrade Tang Hao's current situation.

It also writes about Tang Hao’s hidden identity and why he was arrested.

Cheng Qianfan was surprised. He did not expect that Zhao Yi’s immediate boss at the East Asia Daily, Tang Hao, was actually an underground member of our party.

He once heard Hao Zai mention this deputy editor Tang Hao. According to what Hao Zai reported Zhao Yi, Zhao Yi was extremely disgusted with Tang Hao, who was extremely flattering to the Japanese. He once suggested that the special situation team take action against Tang Hao. Hao Zai was Refused-

Tang Hao admired Zhao Yi very much, so he could not move.

But he didn't expect that Tang Hao was actually his comrade.

 Cheng Qianfan nodded.

 Lao Huang took back the note and rolled the tobacco slowly. Finally, he rolled a layer of newspaper strips outside, struck a match and lit it, and started smoking happily.

 “I will find a way to find out the news.” Cheng Qianfan said.

 …

  Gendarmerie Headquarters.

 In an office next to the torture chamber.

 Sagami Umezu lives and drinks tea leisurely.

He said nothing, and Tang Hao, who was standing in front of him, was even more frightened and did not dare to make the slightest move.

The air seems a little dull.

Occasionally there will be the ferocious barking of a giant oriental wolfdog, followed by a miserable scream.

For the Japanese haters who are stubborn and have little value for further interrogation, the gendarmerie will destroy them from time to time.

 The most heinous thing among them was being bitten to death by Japanese wolves and dogs and becoming the food of these animals.

Listening to the wisps of screams entering the office through the cracks in the door, the hatred in Tang Hao's heart was hard to describe in words. The sadness in his heart was uncontrollable, but he had to try his best to suppress this emotion.

  He seemed to be more frightened, his legs were trembling.

“Deputy Editor-in-Chief Tang.” Umezu Sagami threw Tang Hao’s confession paper on the ground, “If I give this confession to Mr. Shimizu Yoshizawa, how do you think Shimizu Yoshizawa will deal with you?”

"Taijun, Taijun, you must not do it." Tang Hao picked up his confession and just glanced at it, "I hope Taijun can say a few nice words to Mr. Qingshui. These are all nonsense and cannot be taken seriously." .”

 A timid and stupid guy.

 Sagami Umezu gave Tang Hao this definition.

If he was a smart person, he would not defend himself like this at this time, let alone ask him to speak kindly in front of Qingmizu Yoshizawa.

The truly wise man will weep bitterly and beg Umezu Sagami to give him guidance and a way to survive.

 A fool who thinks he is smart may think that he has the ability to win Yoshizawa Shimizu's trust and is not worried about this confession.

 Tang Hao's speech and behavior are stupid, or more precisely, he is stupid, honest and ridiculous.

“Nonsense?” Umetsuzumi Sagami glanced at Tang Hao, “Mr. Tang means to deceive us and deceive the Military Police Headquarters?!”

"Ah, no, no, I don't dare, I don't dare." Mr. Tang Hao was stunned for a moment, and then he became even more afraid. He waved his hands repeatedly, "Taijun, Taijun, what I said above is all the truth, I don't dare. Deceiving the prince."

After saying that, Tang Hao knelt down directly, his nose burst into tears, "Taijun Mingjian, Tang has always been loyal to the Empire of Japan... Taijun, you are merciful, Taijun, you see that Tang has shown great loyalty to the Empire of Japan..." For the sake of our country’s loyalty, please give me a way to survive.”

Looking at Tang Hao, who was crying and begging for mercy like a begging dog, a smile appeared on Umezu Sagami's face, "Mr. Tang, the Locust Army is peace-loving and cherishes life, so it is not without a way to survive."

"Taijun, you give your orders, you give your orders." Tang Hao knelt on the ground, crawled two steps forward, and shouted excitedly as if he had grasped a life-saving straw.

“Hahaha.” Sagami Umezu laughed loudly, stepped forward and patted Tang Hao on the shoulder, “Mr. Tang, you are very good. As long as you obey my arrangements, your life will be saved.”

 “I will do whatever Taijun asks me to do.” Tang Hao said quickly.

“I can let you live, and I can even burn this confession right away.” Umezu Sagami glanced at Tang Hao and said in a deep voice, “I want you to secretly do things for the Military Police Headquarters.”

Tang Hao, who was kneeling down to beg, suddenly raised his head when he heard this, with a look of astonishment on his face...

 …

Tan Mansion.

 A car drove into the yard.

The driver got out of the car, walked around to the rear door and opened it.

 “Sir, please slow down.”

Tan Pinggong got out of the car and hurried into the living room.

 “The master is back.” The maid took the top hat from the male master, helped him take off his suit jacket, and hung up the hat and coat carefully.

 “Where’s my wife?” Tan Pinggong asked.

 “Ask me, my wife is upstairs.” The maid said.

Tan Pinggong strolled upstairs and saw his wife sitting in front of the piano stand in a daze.

“Guizhi, what happened?” Tan Pinggong asked.

Guizhi likes to play the piano, and this time is also the time for her to practice the piano.

If you see yourself in a daze in front of the piano, something must be bothering you.

"The master is back." Mrs. Tan closed the piano stand and came up to hold her husband's arm.

 “What happened?” Tan Pinggong asked again.

“Master, please read this letter.” Mrs. Tan took out a key from her body, opened the jewelry cabinet, and took out a letter from it.

 “Letter?” Tan Pinggong took the envelope and glanced at it, only to see what was written on the envelope:

Mr. Tan personally opens the door.

Taken out the letter paper inside, Tan Pinggong looked at it, but his expression changed drastically.

 This is a letter written by the Red Party to him.

To be precise, it was a letter written by the New Fourth Army to Tan Pinggong.

“Where did this letter come from?” Tan Pinggong asked hurriedly.

 He looked at his wife's jewelry cabinet, "The cabinet..."

"No." Mrs. Tan understood what her husband meant. It would be terrible if the envelope was found in the jewelry cabinet. "It was found on the dressing table table, pressed with my perfume bottle."

Hearing this, Tan Pinggong’s nervous expression did not ease much.

“Sir, the letter said that they will send someone to contact us again to arrange a time and contact information.” Mrs. Tan said, “In this case, according to what they said, the money can be returned to Zhao in full.”

As he said that, Mrs. Tan suddenly frowned.

"Guizhi, you have thought of it too." Tan Pinggong sighed, "The key to the problem now is how to prove that they are really members of the New Fourth Army."

He naturally had no intention of taking the anti-Japanese donation as his own. What he wished for was to hand the money over to the hands of the New Fourth Army, which would not only fulfill the trust of his friends, but also fulfill the righteousness of his family and country!

 But, as he was worried about, how to prove that the other party was the New Fourth Army.

It would be terrible if this was someone else using the name of the New Fourth Army.

 The worst thing that could happen is that this is a Japanese trap!

That would be a disaster for the whole family!

"Master, would you like to find out who secretly sent this letter..." Mrs. Tan asked in a low voice.

If we can find out who secretly placed this letter here, further analysis and judgment will be possible.

 “Absolutely not!” Tan Pinggong said immediately.
