Chapter 741: Fighting for Power and Profit (Asking for a Monthly Pass)
Ning Zhiheng returned to Shanghai, rested for the night, and went to work at Fujiwara Club as usual the next day.
Fortunately, all the business of Fujiwara Kaisha is on track, and there are no major problems, and Yi Huaan and Hirao Daichi can handle it.
Ning Zhiheng motioned to Pingwei Dazhi to retreat, leaving Yi Huaan alone, and then Ning Zhiheng asked: "I heard that the situation in Shanghai has collapsed to this point, for fear that something will go wrong here, so I rushed back day and night, how about it?" Are our people safe? ”
Yi Huaan nodded and replied: "Everything is okay, at present, the failure of Shanghai Station does not have much impact on us, but No. 76 has made a big move this time, they have not only controlled the downtown area of Shanghai, but even put their hands into the concession area, this time they united with the two groups of youth gang forces in the public concession to work together on Shanghai Station, so that Shanghai Station suffered a big loss, and now No. 76 is getting more and more popular, I am afraid that it will be more difficult to control in the future." ”
Ning Zhiheng is also quite a headache about this, the No. 76 agent headquarters is backed by the support of the shadow agency, and with the establishment of Wang's puppet government, it has developed extremely rapidly, and now even if he makes his own move, there is no strong excuse, and he can't help it.
Besides, Fujiwara Tomohito's identity is too important, it is the biggest reliance on the smuggling channel, and how much effort he has put into it to confirm this identity, he will not easily use this identity to get involved in the battle with No. 76.
Moreover, the work of the Intelligence Section is by no means a-for-tat confrontation with No. 76, and Ning Zhiheng does not intend to have a direct conflict with No. 76 and the shadow agency behind him, which is also not in line with the working principles of the Intelligence Section, the core task of the Intelligence Section is to obtain intelligence and smuggle materials, and Ning Zhiheng will not affect these two basic tasks for other reasons.
At present, it is impossible to prevent the establishment of Wang's puppet government by means of assassination and demotion, and while the bureau has ordered to deter the enemy at all costs, the Military Command Bureau itself has also paid an extremely painful price.
From the point of view of the bureau, he must not be indifferent to the formation of the Wang puppet government in Shanghai, otherwise the top level of the Kuomintang will not agree, even if it pays heavy losses, the action against the Wang puppet government will not stop, Ning Zhiheng knows that the bureau will definitely mobilize forces to enter Shanghai again, and this war in the dark is far from over.
At the same time, in the office of the Shanghai Shadow Zuo Agency, Luo Xingchao, the head of the intelligence section of the No. 76 Secret Service Headquarters, was reporting to Qingqing Zhengliang Dazuo.
Since Keiji Tsuchihara left Shanghai, Luo Xingchao's report object has also become Harukei Masara in the Kagesa, who is the right-hand man of Kagesa Hiroki and is mainly responsible for the intelligence work of the Kagesa Agency.
"Dazuo, the work of the secret service headquarters is going smoothly at present, but in this operation to crack the Shanghai station, because Deputy Director Li is in charge of the command, Director Ding has a lot of complaints about this, and there are often complaints in private that General Yingzuo thinks that he is the old man of General Tohara, so he doesn't pay enough attention to him."
Hearing Luo Xingchao's words, Qingqing Zhengliang's eyes stared at Luo Xingchao, and asked coldly, "Ding Mo really said that?" ”
Luo Xingchao hurriedly nodded and confirmed: "This is a true thing, in fact, this is not a secret, the current six divisions, Deputy Director Li's people account for four, and the five action teams are also Deputy Director Li's people, Director Ding is very dissatisfied now, it is said that he has a good relationship with Zhou Fushan, the director of the secret service committee next to Mr. Wang, the two of them are now very close, and now the secret service headquarters has to stand in line, I don't even know where I stand!" ”
It turns out that the No. 76 Agent Headquarters is also complicated now, and Li Zhiqun, who is the deputy director but has real power, has long been unwilling to be in the second place.
At the beginning of the establishment of No. 76, Keiji Tsuchihara chose Li Zhiqun to preside over the work, but Li Zhiqun himself knew that his qualifications were too shallow and he had no bottom in his heart, so he found his old boss Ding Mo and set up a team to form a secret service headquarters together.
But he didn't expect that in less than a year, the secret service headquarters would develop to the point where it is today.
Now the secret service headquarters is not only the exclusive intelligence agency of the new government, it has been transformed from a grass-roots team into a formal government department, with a formal establishment, and it has also transformed itself into a standing committee member of the new government.
More importantly, it was recognized by the Japanese, and its power developed extremely rapidly, and it quickly became a huge power group that influenced the situation in Shanghai.
There were nearly 3,000 agents under his command, and because there were too many people, No. 76 Jisfeier Road could no longer be accommodated, so he had to open five branches in the urban area of Shanghai and stationed them separately, which can be regarded as a strong army.
Now that his status has improved, Li Zhiqun is no longer satisfied with being a deputy to Ding Mo, he has to really master this force, but fortunately, his talent is outstanding and has been appreciated by Hiroki Kagesa, so Yuki Kagesa is very supportive of Li Zhiqun.
And Ding Mo was quite influential when he was in the Kuomintang before, and he knew many high-level people, including Zhou Fushan, who is now a standing committee member, chairman of the Finance Committee, and chairman of the Special Committee in the puppet government.
And Zhou Fushan also urgently needs to master the powerful force of the secret service headquarters, so he hit it off with Ding Mo, and is currently fighting with Li Zhiqun, who is supported by Hiroki Kagesa.
Luo Xingchao's identity is very embarrassing, they are agents who followed Wen Hao and transferred from the original Secret Service Detective Department, neither Ding Mo's people nor Li Zhiqun's people, but Wen Hao was squeezed out to Nanjing to create a secret service branch, and he also took away his own descendants.
The rest of these people, most of them are the agents of the surrender of the Shanghai Station of the original military command, they were not close to Wen Hao, and now they have become the master who does not hurt his grandmother and does not love his uncle, and after Luo Xingchao's intentional convergence, they formed a group alone, headed by Luo Xingchao, and they were uncertain between the two factions.
Qingqing Zhengliang couldn't help but sneer: "You Chinese like infighting, a small secret service headquarters just a little scale, just engaged in a miasma, but at present, Li Zhiqun's ability is very strong, and he can effectively combat the arrogance of Chinese agents by controlling the agent headquarters, so you still have to have a good relationship with Li Zhiqun, as for Ding Mo, General Yingzuo will make arrangements." ”
The meaning of Qingqing Zhengliang's words is already very clear, the Shadow Zuo Agency will fully support Li Zhiqun's ascension, don't look at the No. 76 Agent Headquarters is now under the jurisdiction of the Wang puppet government, but even if it is the Wang puppet government, it must now obey the arrangements of the Shadow Zuo Agency, after all, they still have to rely on the power of the Japanese to form a government, so the opinion of the Shadow Zuo Agency is the most important.
Luo Xingchao spread his hands and said with a wry smile: "I wanted to have a good relationship with Deputy Director Li, but he ignored me, I went to report several times, and he sent me away with a few words, and now these people are guarding against me, and they are avoiding me for anything."
Let's just say that this time the big operation, the news is blocked very strictly, and when they arrest people back, I only know the news here, Dazuo, they did it on purpose, what kind of intentions do you say they have, this is even Dazuo, you don't believe it! I'm just a piece of stuff right now, and it's hard to keep track of what they're doing, and it's hard to know what's important. ”
Luo Xingchao's identity as a secret agent helped him gain a firm foothold in the No. 76 agent headquarters, but at the same time, it also made others have scruples.
Qingqing Zhengliang also shook his head helplessly, before Keiji Tsuchihara left, because he broke up with Hiroki Kagesa, he didn't hand over the few dark chess pieces that were placed in the secret service headquarters to Yuki Kagesa, but this Ming chess Luo Xingchao, who was exposed in front of people, became the only chess piece.
Qingqing Zhengliang said angrily: "Okay, I will arrange this matter, if Li Zhiqun is a smart person, he should know how to do it!" ”
Luo Xingchao hurriedly nodded and agreed, and after a short time, he withdrew from Qingqing Zhengliang's office and left the shadow agency.
Back at the secret service headquarters, sitting in his office, Luo Xingchao couldn't help but feel extremely irritable, he watched his comrades repeat his mistakes one by one these days, either falling under the enemy's guns, or being dragged into prison, tortured and dying, and finally surrendered to the enemy.
But he couldn't do anything, he could only watch, and this feeling of helplessness made Luo Xingchao's mood terrible.
This time the Shanghai station suffered heavy losses, but he had no way to know any news in advance, which made Luo Xingchao very remorseful.
At this time, his henchman Cui Yuanfeng knocked on the door and stepped forward to report: "Section chief, this guy Wu Shicai is arresting people everywhere through this operation, and it is those rich businessmen who say that they are Chongqing elements, and they are now busy extorting money!" ”
Previously, Wu Shicai's guard brigade shot one after another, arresting and killing many agents of the Shanghai station, Luo Xingchao did not get the news in advance, and now he focused on Wu Shicai in order to find out the abnormal situation in time, so Cui Yuanfeng kept an eye on Wu Shicai's every move.
"Are these merchants related to Fujiwara Kaisha?" Luo Xingchao asked.
"No, Wu Shicai is not stupid, he doesn't want to die, these businessmen are all singled out, this guy is really ruthless, he directly wants half of his net worth, and if he doesn't give it, he will tear up the ticket, it's crazy! The Japanese are also engaged in it? ”
Now in Shanghai, being able to get in touch with Fujiwara is no less than an extra talisman, and these green-skinned hooligans in the secret service headquarters dare not come to the door.
Luo Xingchao spat disdainfully, and scolded: "It's not a good class, you don't care about these things, or focus on intelligence, you tell Qin San that they should pay more attention, if there is a big operation, they must report it in time, don't wait for everyone to finish it, then it's an afterthought, what's the use?" ”
Qin San and the others were Luo Xingchao's subordinates in the Green Gang during the Secret Service Detective Department, and now they are also working in the action brigade, and they are also the eyes and ears arranged by Luo Xingchao.
Cui Yuanfeng nodded and said: "I know, but the Sixth National Congress is about to be held, don't look at the heavy losses of Shanghai Station before, but they have personnel supplements, and this battle is still fought, I can't live in peace during this time, I will keep an eye on Wu Shicai!" ”
