Chapter 83: Prying
Archimedes said: Give me a fulcrum, and I can pry the earth up.
Luo Yao said: Give me the whole report, and I can make the Ninth Theater Commander's Department jump.
He asked a report on "Chen Cixiu's inspection of the Tianjiazhen Fortress" in the "Jiangcheng Daily", accompanied by a photo.
The photo was taken by him when Chen Cixiu went to the Tianjiazhen Fortress three months ago, and at that time, Chen Cixiu was still the commander-in-chief of the Jiangcheng Garrison Headquarters, not the current commander of the Ninth Theater.
At that time, the temperature was about the same as it is now, so you can't tell the season just by looking at the photos.
Where did the photos come from?
It would be too easy for the military commander to get such a picture.
As for why "Jiangcheng Daily" dared to publish such a news, it was too simple, did the president of a small local newspaper dare to refuse the notorious military commander (former Blue Coat Society)?
What's more, there is nothing taboo in the news.
It's just that the photos are real, and the words spoken are also true, but the time of the news is fake.
As soon as the news came out, did Chen Cixiu publicly deny that he had not been to Tianjia Town? Luo Yao actually has an element of gambling, but if Chen Xiuci is really a politically literate general.
No matter how angry he is, he won't deny it publicly.
Although this is not a strategic deception of the Japanese army, in fact, it will still affect the deployment of the Japanese army on the offensive, and it can also achieve the effect of motivating and boosting the morale of the people to resist Japan.
If his brain hadn't entered the water, he was afraid that he would have pinched his nose and admitted it, but it was absolutely impossible for "Jiangcheng Daily" to publish this kind of news in the future.
I don't know if Lao Chen will be angry with them, as if he is not a person who is too cautious.
……
The newspaper is in front of you, and the more you look at it, the more dazzling it becomes.
The Ninth Theater Commander's Department, the more Chen Cixiu thought about it, the more he felt that he had suffered such a sullen loss, and he actually let the military commanders and the gang only kidnap tickets, blackmail and kill sinister villains to calculate.
Suddenly, the number one line of secrecy on the desk rang.
Chen Cixiu is a spirit, at this time, why did this line suddenly ring? After a moment's hesitation, he got up and picked up the phone.
"It's me."
"Cixiu, I saw the news in the "Jiangcheng Daily" that you went to inspect the Tianjiazhen fortress and encouraged the soldiers in front to fight the Japanese invaders to the end, which is very good." The thick Zhejiang Fenghua accent came out of the earpiece.
"Commission, this matter is not ......" Chen Cixiu was stunned, the newspaper just came out today, why did the mountain city already get it, this efficiency is too fast, there is a flight to the mountain city at the airport today......
Thinking about it like this, he fully understood that there was someone behind this.
"I know that this is a propaganda strategy of yours, and it is good to make the Japanese people unable to figure out our situation and disturb their sight."
"Commission, as far as I know, this matter was published by the people below the military command Jiangcheng District, and now it is just a news report, and it may lie about the military situation in the future, this is not a trivial matter, and it must be severely punished!" Chen Cixiu said heavily.
"I know, but do you know why they're doing this, and in your name?" The old man's voice was a little less warm.
"I don't understand what you mean?"
"Dai Yunong, the commander of the military command, has formulated a 'fishing' plan, which is intended to dig out all the Japanese spies lurking in Jiangcheng, and use the Japanese spies to pass back a false information, cooperate with our front-line troops, and inflict a heavy blow on the Japanese troops attacking along the river, can there be such a thing?"
Chen Cixiu was stunned, and then remembered that half a month ago, he seemed to have seen such a plan, he just glanced at it at the time, and felt that it was too child's play, and he didn't take it seriously at all, so he signed it directly for the secretary to archive.
"Rhetoric?"
Chen Cixiu was a little stunned, and the old man's voice came again.
"Bench, you say, I'll listen."
"The people below are doing their own thing, it's really wrong, this must be punished afterwards, this is indispensable, but they didn't make an assertion at the beginning, but reported to you in advance."
"The right thing to criticize is that I didn't do my job well."
"I know that if you are entrusted with such a big job of defending Jiangcheng, you will be under a lot of pressure, and it is inevitable that some aspects will not be able to take care of it, which is understandable, however, this 'fishing' plan proposed by Yu Nong, I have seen it, it is very valuable, if it can be successfully implemented, it can teach this Botian detachment a lesson, and it will definitely inspire my soldiers who will not retreat in the front!" The old man said impassionedly.
"The committee is right, I will definitely study this 'fishing' plan carefully to see if I can formulate a coordinated action plan." Chen Cixiu said busily.
"After the plan is formulated, report to me." After saying that, the old man hung up the phone.
Chen Cixiu put down the phone, and there was a layer of sweat on his forehead, not because he was frightened, but because he was shocked by the fact that the old man was so fond of Dai Yunong, a spy leader.
"Adjutant Tu!"
"Here."
"Go to the confidential room, find out the document that Director Liu of the investigation office reported to me for filing half a month ago, and send it to my office immediately."
"Yes."
"Has Chief of Staff Luo arrived?"
"It's already on the way, and it'll be there in a minute!"
"Call Director Liu from the investigation room as well."
……
Three days passed quickly, and Lin Miao called Cleaver again to make an appointment, using a public phone, and there was no way to determine the location.
But the phone at Cliffor's home has been monitored.
None of the conversations were recorded.
As for "Lin Miao", Luo Yao adopted the strategy of not moving, arresting people now, and not being able to maximize the benefits, now through the disclosure of the Investigation Office of the Ninth War Zone Commander's Department.
The Ninth Theater will cooperate with this operation, and in the name of the Theater Commander's Department, it will order the Fortress Command to cooperate.
Originally, it was a request but could not be obtained, but now it is to see that the interests are actively cooperating.
Luo Yao didn't know that Dai Yunong personally ran to the old man for his "fishing" plan and sued Chen Cixiu, so he had the initiative to cooperate now.
Otherwise, even if Chen Cixiu would pinch his nose and admit the report in the newspaper, he and the "Jiangcheng Daily" and the Jiangcheng Station of the military command would all be unlucky.
With the cooperation of the Commander of the Ninth Theater, the problem was much easier to solve, and Commander Guo Huai of the Jiangcheng Garrison Command was Chen Cixiu's favorite general.
In this system, many things are naturally unimpeded and there are no obstacles.
The Ma Shiqing Group of the Investigation Office of the Theater Commander's Department and the Inspection Department of the Jiangcheng Garrison Command (Tang Xin, Director of the Jiangcheng Station of the Military Command) were officially ordered to cooperate with the secret special operations group stationed in Jiangcheng by the Military Commander, codenamed "Shura," to complete this special "fishing" operation.
Regardless of whether they exceeded their authority before, acted without authorization, or deceived their superiors and subordinates, the superiors all acquiesced, but if the action was successful, everyone was happy, and they would make up for their merits, and maybe they could even receive awards for meritorious service.
Fail?
Stay where it's cool!
Everyone, including Tang Xin, the deputy head of Jiangcheng District, the head of the inspection department of the garrison headquarters, and the stationmaster, couldn't get any good results.
Therefore, now everyone has become a grasshopper on a rope, whoever drops the chain will be hated by others for a lifetime, and no one dares to slack off.
Foreigners love to go to church, and the church is a place where foreigners gather, Lin Miao's choice to meet Cleaver in the church can be said to be a very ingenious choice.
Who knows how many of them are sincere believers in the Lord?
"How's that, Mr. Cliffor, what do I want?"
"Mr. Lin, the information you want is too difficult to get, this dock town and Wuxue town have become a pot of porridge, troop deployment, weapon reinforcements or something, the changes are too great, I give it to you now, if you send it back, it will probably be useless for a long time." Cripple Tract.
"What do you mean, don't you want to regret it?"
"If you want a battle report, I can give it to you, as much as you want, it's all after the fact, besides, can you know over there, as for the information, I gave it to you, it's useless for you to take it back, isn't this a pit for you?" Cleaver said, "I'm sorry, I may not be able to earn your money, just pay you the deposit." ”
Luo Yao thought about it later, it was better not to give the information, but not to give it would make "Lin Miao" believe that Cleaver's intelligence would be more real.
This is the heart of thinking skillfully in the "opposite direction" of the other person.
Lin Miao frowned slightly, he said that asking for information about the dock and the Wuxue was actually a temptation, if Cleaver really came up with information about the dock and the Wuxue, he really couldn't believe it.
Of course, he knew that the dock and Wuxue were now the front line, and the two sides had been fighting fiercely for more than ten days, but the Japanese army had never been able to break through the defensive line, and they both almost knew each other's strength and troop deployment, at this time, unless there was a force that could change the tide of the war.
As for the basic situation of the defenders, it has been more than ten days of fighting, and if it is not clarified, then the Japanese military intelligence department should really eat.
What Lin Miao wants must be key information that can change the situation of the battle, and Clive also knows it, otherwise how can it be worth the price offered by the other party?
"Since the deposit has been given, I haven't thought about taking it back, Mr. Cleaver, I think that if the people behind you can get information about the fortress of Tianjia Town, such as the distribution map of the fortress's batteries and heavy machine guns, the troops stationed, the number, the combat effectiveness, etc., our previous agreement is still valid!" Lin Miao changed his words and quietly returned the three gold bars.
"Mr. Lin, the wind is tight, I don't dare to do it." Cleaver refused, it was all according to the script written by Luo Yao.
If you want to refuse and welcome.
The same applies here.
Only in this way can Lin Miao completely trust the accuracy of the information he provides.
"Doesn't that Major General Qian behind you want to stay away from this country and go abroad with a large sum of money to live a carefree life?" Lin Miao suddenly lowered her voice and said.
"You, how do you know?" Cleaver let out a horrified sigh.
Lin Miao actually found Qian Zhibin, which also surprised him.
"The two pieces of information you sold earlier, one is a map of the safe passage from Huanggang to Gedian on the Yangtze River, and the second piece of information is that the commander of the Ninth Theater ordered the removal of ten naval guns to be deployed in Tiannan Fortress and used as shore defense artillery, am I right?" Lin Miao didn't have a hint of smugness.
"You, how do you know?" Cleaver was genuinely surprised.
