In 1940, Shanghai became a safe haven for spies, intelligence agents, and spies, just like Casabraca or Lisbon during World War II.

In particular, Japan's espionage and counterintelligence agencies are very complex. At that time, the Japanese secret service in Shanghai was divided into seven sections: Economics, Politics, Intelligence, Propaganda, Finance, Construction and General Affairs.

The most dynamic of these secret agencies is the Mei Agency.

Compared with the special high school class in Hongkou New Asia Hotel, the plum mechanism hidden in Hongkou's "Little Tokyo" has a greater effect.

Kitajima's secret service not only controls No. 76, but also covertly controls Shanghai's extensive underground network.

Pu Su did not want to use the North Island until last resort.

Now, including applying for a pass, Lao Ren has to think of another way, that is, for safety reasons. The first is the natural distrust of the Japanese, and the second is that good steel should be used on the blade.

As a Chinese, it is normal to have this kind of vigilance against a Japanese agent. After all, Lao Ren trusted him through the original contact between them. And Pu Su can only indirectly trust Beidao through his trust in Lao Ren.

It's just that if the North Island is successfully used once at a critical moment, the value of this relationship can be fully reflected.

At present, the Huxi Intelligence Division of the Gendarmerie is controlled by a hooligan named Ding Guangkun. This notorious Qinggang gangster in Shanghai is now in command of a gang of more than 30 hooligans, armed by the Japanese, who run rampant and domineering in the dirt.

Ding Guangkun commanded his subordinates to extort money from civilians for three days and two ends, relying on the guns provided by the Japanese to carry out armed robbery.

Nominally, they are "protecting" gambling stalls, tobacco shops, brothels, dance halls and other places where they spend their time drinking and drinking, but in fact it is they who constantly kidnap tickets, extort tickets, and even openly rob in the bad land.

Originally, Boss Du, the boss of the Green Gang, ran away to Hong Kong after the war. Before the war, in Shanghai, Boss Du firmly controlled the supply and sale of drugs throughout the city. It also runs the Anti-Smoking Bureau, which issues licenses, and the Association of Businesses that supply drugs.

It's just that after Boss Du went to Hong Kong before the fall, the secret service under the Shanghai puppet government organized a new opium merchant association. Three Japanese representatives served as "advisers": Tanaka, Satomi, and Fuhama.

Under the organization of these three Japanese, they were so-called "empowered" by the Japanese side and the puppet regime. Control over the import and distribution of opium was reinstated, and licensing conditions for opium dealers and smokers were enforced.

In this case, several cronies under the original Boss Du also turned back. These ruffians with negligible moral bottom lines soon defected to the Japanese and the puppet government, and the original leader of the Green Gang, Ding Guangkun, was one of them.

At this time, Ding Guangkun's headquarters was located at No. 25 Jisfeier Road. There are two branches, one at No. 12 Jisfield Road, and the other in an alley on Yidingpan Road.

At present, almost all the casinos and tobacco shops in the Huxi Bad Land Area are under his control. While looting the people's fat and ointment, he also collected a large amount of taxes every month from these places to maintain the daily expenses of the traitorous government.

From the Japanese point of view, it is very necessary to maintain cooperation with the Chinese underground. They believe that this is the best way to guarantee control of Shanghai. Once they are able to mobilize these green gang forces, they can easily cause unrest. Harassment of the police, arrest of anti-Japanese elements and representatives of the resistance.

This meant that they would only need to occupy it by these hooligans rather than by force to take control of the foreigner areas of Shanghai. In fact, these local hooligans did do a lot of dirty things for the Japanese.

Many of the very tricky dirty work that the Japanese side and the puppet government came up with were finally handed over to these green gangsters to complete. Then the puppet government pretended to come forward to denounce it, and a few days later, it was considered to have an explanation.

And the price to pay to ensure that the Green Gang hooligans can cooperate with them is extremely low. All you need to do is give them a big cigarette and gambling license.

They are provided with large tobacco for sale on a regular basis and are given corresponding licenses in the controlled areas. Allow them to legally open casinos and tobacco shops, and these green gangsters are desperately willing to use them for their purposes.

It has to be said that drug sales are a characteristic of Japan's full-scale occupation of China.

As the Japanese army occupied Chinese territory one by one, the occupation authorities actively sought to monopolize and expand the illegal drug trade. By 1939, pure heroin was sold for about 300 yuan an ounce, and 3 million yuan per moonlight was levied from opium sales in Anhui, Zhejiang, and Jiangsu.

The drug trade accounted for one-third of the total tax revenue of the puppet regime, and this revenue was clearly indispensable for maintaining the puppet government. At the same time, another 3 million yuan per month was handed over to the Japanese gendarmerie and many secret agencies.

As the number of people fleeing to Shanghai increases dramatically, there are even greater potential benefits here.

The Japanese had a large amount of opium in their hands, and their army now controlled the main Turkish communication routes through Suiyuan, and was able to trade opium smoothly, especially in a staggering amount of money trafficked into China each month.

There is no doubt that the more prosperous the drug and gambling trade in Shanghai, the more harmful it is to the people. The higher the profits made by the puppet government and the Japanese, the more unfavorable the situation of the Chinese patriotic army and people in resisting Japan would be.

Pu Su planned to launch a raid on the Japanese-controlled tobacco shops and gambling stalls in western Shanghai before starting all operations. The significance of this action is not only to cut off the supply of goods that are harmful to the people, but also to deal a heavy blow to the finances of the puppet government.

He will conduct a raid directly in two locations after figuring out the date of pick-up. All the way, he led the team to the old lair of the gangsters, and wiped out all the places where the filth and dirt were hidden.

Through tonight's observation, Pu Su found that several gold caves had warehouses for storing goods and drugs.

Carrying out a search and suppression operation here is bound to be a great blow to the Wang puppet regime economically. Moreover, such actions can also cause panic among the people in the local area to the greatest extent and create a sense of distrust of the puppet regime.

If traitors like Ding Guangkun are killed during the operation, they can also serve as an example to other traitors.

Alyosha led another group of team members and went directly to the pier.

Many of the Belarusians in the mansion were former sailors, and they were very skilled at jumping on rafts. Sailors trained in the Caspian Sea and the Black Sea could not be compared to the boatmen of inland lakes.

Pu Su's plan was not just to intercept the cargo from the docks, but to board the ship with arms, empty the transport, and blow up the cabin. In the future, if there is no one, they will do this, unless the Japanese army is armed to protect them.

However, as long as the newspaper office was told to go to the dock to take pictures with cameras and then publish them in the newspaper, the Japanese military alone could not stand international public opinion.

Of course, it is necessary to continue to collect information to determine the final plan. At the same time, targeted training for the players should also be carried out in these two days.

There's still a lot of work to be done, and we're going to get a couple of trucks in the next two days. Taking advantage of the fact that I brought four technicians out of the workshop today, the truck still needs to be properly modified. You need to be fully prepared before you act, or you don't make a move, or you have to achieve a complete success rate.

In the future, he will make good use of the bags of his old men to inquire and build a list through their eyes and ears.

For example, hooligans and traitors like Ding Guangkun and other dignitaries in the puppet government will appear on the list one by one. On the basis of this list, he will carry out targeted killings.
