About a week after Chiyo's café phone operation, China, No. 174, Zhongshan 2nd Road, Yuzhong District, the office of the director of the military command headquarters.

A middle-aged man in his forties with a fox face was smoking a cigarette in the office with a frown, and it was not difficult to see from his style and demeanor that this was an old superior who was thinking about it.

This person is Dai Li, and at this moment he is thinking about a question that will determine the fate of the rest of his life.

Five days ago, Dai Li, who was busy in the northern part of the mainland to negotiate with the puppet army and the swing forces for the rectification work after the reconquest of the lost territory, suddenly received an urgent telegram from the president himself, asking him to return to the Chongqing headquarters immediately, and that he had a top-secret task to be handed over to Dai Li, which was particularly urgent.

Although Dai Li was very happy to accumulate wealth in the north at that time, the president's order was no different from a holy decree to him, and Dai Li immediately rushed to Chongqing on a military plane and met with the president alone.

As for the task given to Dai Li, it is not very unusual, it is just to investigate and deal with the Americans, although this type of task is relatively rare compared to dealing with other forces, but Dai Li has also done it many times, and he is well versed in the way of dealing with the Americans.

It's just that...... The content of this mission really scared Dai Li.

The Americans want to kill the president.

The president himself has obviously just received this information, and he is not completely sure of its authenticity, and Dai Li's task is to verify this information.

Although the mission is scary, it is not very difficult to execute, because when the president explained the task, he told Dai Li, the time, place, and even the method of the Americans' assassination of him, and what Dai Li had to do was to verify it without attracting attention, and it only took three days for several of Dai Li's henchmen to verify that this information was indeed true.

The man who wanted to assassinate the president was Joseph Stilwell, then commander of the U.S. Army's Asian ground forces.

Then this relatively high level of course needs a reference, and this reference is our political genius and military stupid president.

In fact, there is no need to be harsh on the president's military stupidity, God is fair, except for a few great men who are also the great men of the times, it is difficult for others to point all their talents, and the president is an ordinary person, and his talents are all pointed at political struggles.

If the president is an ordinary high-ranking government officer, it is better to say, there is always a higher level to tell him: You idiot, go and engage in your office struggle, stay away from the army. But the problem is that the president was the supreme leader of the government at the time...... No one dared to mention his military stupidity, not only that, but China's thousands of years of official-based culture also made his subordinates frenzied him, so the president himself always thought that he was a military genius comparable to Zhuge Liang, Montgomery, and Lelouch.

As the so-called meat eater despises, here I can tell you a conclusion with great certainty, a person, no matter how smart and great you are, as long as you are in charge for a long time, you will definitely evolve into a "non-cannibal fireworks" ratio, 100%, no exception.

However, Stilwell, as an old beauty, does not buy the president's account.

As a result, Stilwell, who was already a little prejudiced against Asians and had some level of military skills, inevitably had a considerable conflict with the president, and Stilwell scolded the president in his diary during his time in China as a "little mongrel" and "rattlesnake", and the president was not a fuel-efficient lamp, and publicly commented that Stilwell was "lawless and rude, and impersonal."

So, can this kind of disagreement really prompt Stilwell to assassinate the president? You must know that Stilwell is an old fritter in officialdom, with absolute reason and three views, and it is impossible for him to be as enthusiastic as a high school student and want to cut people.

Stilwell wasn't that naïve, of course, but he did want to kill the president.

The reason is also very simple, Stilwell saw that the war was about to end, and he had led his army to defeat in Burma, and Stilwell was eager to fight a victory on the battlefield before the end of the war to get a shame, otherwise after the end of the war, the previous defeat would permanently affect his career.

After the Tehran meeting, Roosevelt called the president to apologize for the violation of the Cairo commitments made by Britain and the United States and for the postponement of the Burma operation. This was a blow to Stilwell, who had been strongly looking forward to starting the war in Burma as soon as possible.

When the president expressed his resolute refusal to let the mainland alone take on the task of fighting in northern Burma, Stilwell's long-accumulated resentment finally erupted, and the recent death of President Roosevelt coincided with the handover of the old and new teams, giving Stilwell the opportunity to use an "accident" to take out the annoying president.

The specific plan was this, at the suggestion of Stilwell, the governor of the Hump Route would invite the president and his wife to visit India and inspect and boost the morale of the local mainland army, considering that the Indian government was basically equal to the British government at that time, and the Hump Route was also very important to the mainland, the president agreed to the visit and put it on the agenda.

When the president's plane flew over the Himalayas, he pretended that the plane's engine had failed, and all the passengers on the plane abandoned the plane and parachuted, and the parachute prepared for the president and his wife had been tampered with in advance, and all of them could not be opened at that time, and the two of them would inevitably fall to the ground and die.

Of course, in order to increase the authenticity of the accident, several other parachutes would also fail, so the lives of several American officers would be involved.

For this reason, they specially called in Morrett, chief of the intelligence department of the 14th Air Force of the US military at that time, to jointly study every technical detail, and decided that in order to prevent leakage of secrets, they would not give orders to the pilots until the time of operation.

This series of plans is naturally quite thorough, but Stilwell and his gang never expected that a reborn Yu Zecheng, who had done a lot of homework in advance, suddenly popped up and leaked their secret plan to the president, that is, the document that Xiao Chiyo mentioned when he called the president's wife in the café before that he must let the president himself pass it.

After the president got the news, he didn't think it was true, Stilwell didn't belong to him, and the president naturally couldn't figure out Stilwell's thoughts, but in line with the principle of safety first, the president handed over the task of verifying this request to his trump card henchman, Dai Li.

Dai Li, who was originally a character with strong executive ability, was very simple to verify this information after getting the specific time and place, and he quickly determined that the information given by the president was indeed true.

It stands to reason that Dai Li should immediately report the danger to the president, and in fact Dai Li did just that, but just as he was about to get to the door of the president's office, he hesitated for a moment, returned to his office, and began to think.

If it is said that everything can be "refined", then Dai Lia is undoubtedly a "chess piece" that is confused into essence.

As a confidant, Dai Li's life and safety naturally must be the first priority, even if he dies for it. But as a politician, climbing up is naturally the first priority, so based on this logic, Dai Li feels that it is risky for him to report this information to the president.

Dai Li, who is a spy in this bank, is already standing at the highest point of the mainland's secret service organs, and if he makes any more meritorious service, he will no longer be rewarded, and he will only be rewarded for his meritorious service.

So put yourself aside and analyze that information.

If the information on the assassination of the president is true, it will undoubtedly damage the relationship between the president and the Americans, but the president's government is deeply dependent on the United States to a large extent, and even if the Americans want to kill the president, as a mature politician who has a milk and is a mother, the president will not be able to completely turn his face with the United States.

So, what if there will be a new war after the surrender of the island countries? The president's government will certainly continue to maintain friendly relations with the United States in order to gain the support of the United States, and the top management of the United States who wants to kill the president but because of its final defeat may then have a grudge against the president, and then the two sides will basically play a clear card, and Dai Li, at that time, may be killed as a victim by the president who wants others to "show sincerity" to the United States.

Dai Lizhen is worthy of being the dragon and phoenix among people, his analytical ability is really amazing, and on the whole, he and Yu Zecheng belong to the same level of brain-eating agents.

However, it is not necessarily a good thing not to give this information to the president.

If the president really dies, Dai Li will certainly be able to guarantee that he will not be liquidated by those who will later be in power? At present, there are also Chen Cheng and others in the high-level pro-US party in the party, and these people have never dealt with Dai Li, and if they take power, the wealth that Dai Li's accumulation of struggle for so many years may be confiscated by the new person in power, or even completely overthrown.

This seems to be a complicated multiple-choice problem, but it is not unsolvable for Dai Li, he has dealt with too many dilemmas in his life, and experience has taught him that at such a time, there is a trade-off between the two.

No one can say for sure what the situation will be after the war, maybe there will be a peaceful era when the time comes, and once the president dies, Dai Li's life will definitely be difficult.

Thinking of this, Dai Li took a puff of his cigarette, then pressed out the cigarette butt and walked towards the president's office.

But no matter how clever Dai Li, he could not have imagined that the assassination information provided to him by the president was only a small part of the document that Chiyo Kochan mentioned in the café......

The best is yet to come.
