Chapter 486: Arranging Trivial Matters (Asking for a Monthly Pass)
Ning Zhiheng kept staring at the dispatcher and sent the information twice, and then he was relieved, the importance of this piece of information is self-evident, and it will have an extremely significant impact on the next battle to defend Wuhan.
In total, there were only eight divisions in the Guangzhou area, less than 100,000 troops, and they were distributed on the long coastal defense front, and the positions were scattered.
And Li Jiangguan's division was stationed at the nearest position on the transportation line, which is also the reason why the Japanese rebels set their target on Li Jiangguan.
Now that Li Jiangguan has begun to make substantive contacts with the Japanese, in a vain attempt to become the de facto controller of Guangzhou with the help of the Japanese, it is only a matter of time before he surrenders to the country.
But now that the intelligence is timely, Ning Zhiheng discovered this conspiracy in advance, as long as this plan of the Japanese is thwarted, at least it can be guaranteed that after the Battle of Wuhan starts, unless the Japanese make up their minds to turn against the British and French, the transportation of military supplies by the Chinese government can be guaranteed!
The soldiers had medicines, planes and gunboats, gasoline in cars, bullets and shells in their guns and artillery, and only then did they have the capital to fight a war of attrition with the Japanese, otherwise everything would have been in vain.
After the matter was done, Ning Zhiheng and Zuo Rou walked out of the telecommunications room and came to Ning Zhiheng's office.
"This information is so important, and it costs a lot of money, right?" Zuo Rou asked helplessly.
She was under a lot of pressure during this time, there were more and more industries in the intelligence station, and the financial pressure was getting bigger and bigger, which made her, the big housekeeper, a little breathless, especially the purchase of intelligence, which was simply a bottomless pit, making it difficult for her to cook without rice, if it wasn't for the strong foundation that Ning Zhiheng had accumulated before, it would have been impossible to support it now.
Ning Zhiheng nodded and stretched out three fingers.
"Thirty thousand dollars? Oh my God, that's our total profit for the month, and that's what we got in exchange for these two pieces of paper? Zuo Rou exclaimed, she only felt a pain in her heart, and couldn't help but cover her chest and take a long breath!
Ning Zhiheng smiled slightly, he stepped forward to hold Zuo Rou's jade hand, and comforted him softly: "It's a little expensive, but this time the British are doing things very authentically, and even the identity of the latent Japanese spy has been found out, and it's still worth the price."
Besides, the stakes are high, not to mention 30,000 US dollars, even 300,000 is worth it, you also know the importance of this information, it can allow our soldiers to have clothing, food, and go to the battlefield, the bullets in the guns are sufficient, the wounded, there are enough medicines to treat, there is no need to lie in the hospital waiting for death, these are priceless! Isn't it true that we do intelligence work to serve the front-line soldiers! Don't feel sorry for money, it's just a piece of paper if you don't use it, you can exchange it for life if you use it, this account can be calculated! ”
Zuo Rou's hand was held by Ning Zhiheng, sweet in his heart, Ning Zhiheng has always been calm, and rarely expresses emotions, although the two of them get along day and night, they rarely even hold hands.
"You don't have to explain to me, I'm just a little reluctant, I still know the severity of the matter, but now the funds of the intelligence station are really not available, just this month, the purchase of intelligence expenditure is 100,000 US dollars, and the purchase of arms costs another 30,000 US dollars, that's it, Director Huo also applied for 20,000 US dollars, and opened a dance hall, now we have more and more industries, but the initial investment is so large, I have to use the reserves now!"
Ning Zhiheng listened to her pour bitter water, and also knew that the financial pressure of the intelligence station made it a little difficult for her to support, so she had to say: "It is necessary to purchase arms, and our smuggling channels must not touch arms, otherwise once something happens, it will not be explained at all, and the consequences will be very serious, so we can only buy from those arms dealers."
Yue Ze also reported to me about opening a dance hall, mainly because he wanted to open more entertainment industries, this kind of place where three religions and nine streams gathered, which is convenient for collecting intelligence, after all, he is in charge of intelligence work, and it is understandable that he is a little anxious to do a good job.
As for why so much is invested, you also know that such an industry has to arrange some eavesdropping instruments, and now the electrical materials and instruments are ridiculously expensive, and the supporting decoration and placement are costing a lot of money, you still give him approval first, otherwise it will be bad to delay the business, and soon our funds will not be a problem! ”
Zuo Rou had no choice but to nod her head in agreement, hesitated for a moment, and asked uncertainly: "You said, Director Huo has such a large amount of money in his hands now, and he spends money like running water, will it..."
After speaking, she looked at Ning Zhiheng, although she didn't say it thoroughly, the expression on her face clearly showed what she meant.
"Corruption?" Ning Zhiheng said with a smile, he returned to his chair and sat down, his tone was indifferent, "Yue Ze, I can still trust him, he is not the kind of person who bends his waist for money, besides, the intelligence station is all my people, I also have some arrangements, he doesn't dare, you don't have to worry!" ”
Knowing that Ning Zhiheng had already made arrangements, Zuo Rou was relieved, and she then asked: "This time the medicine has arrived in Hong Kong, I have arranged for our two trading houses to take over, and the medicine has been transferred once, and the account books have been done, whether we are bulk goods on the spot, or to store them, if we find a way to send them to the mainland, then the profit will be great!" ”
Ning Zhiheng had already planned for this, he waved his hand and said, "Bulk goods on the spot!" Our medicines were consumed in the French Concession, so that although the profit is less, but the safest, even so, it is several times the profit, now we want safety, and as soon as possible to return the funds, in the future these goods will continue to be transported, no need to store, as for the risk of sending out of Shanghai, the Japanese are very strict, there are many checkpoints to the mainland, military supplies are difficult to transport out, I will find a way to open up the transportation line with the mainland in the future, but now it is difficult to do! ”
"Okay, I'll arrange bulk goods immediately, these Western medicines will be robbed when they are released, and the funds will be recovered soon!" Zuo Rou immediately agreed.
Ning Zhiheng looked at Zuo Rou and said apologetically: "I know that the stall of the intelligence station is getting bigger and bigger, you are involved in more and more energy, and you have to take care of the work of the telecommunications department, it is indeed too fortunate, I will apply to the headquarters again, and let Deputy Director Huang send some reliable people to help you!" ”
"It's still not necessary, I still have no problem here, it's nothing to be busy, besides, if you do things carefully, Deputy Director Huang's people are afraid that you can't believe it!" Zuo Rou hurriedly rejected Ning Zhiheng's proposal, she knew that with Ning Zhiheng's character, he would never trust him if he was not a familiar person, even if it was his backer, Deputy Director Huang of the Baoding Department, Ning Zhiheng did not completely believe it.
Ning Zhiheng smiled bitterly, in fact, by his side, Zuo Rou was the one who knew him best, there were too many secrets in his heart, and some secrets could only be buried deep in his heart and could not be known to anyone.
Therefore, he does not fully believe in anyone, even the closest people, but also has reservations, so he is consciously or unconsciously alienating himself from others and giving people around him a feeling of being unapproachable.
Zuo Rou felt this very deeply, she had been paying wholeheartedly, which made this stone slowly melt and gradually began to accept her, but the woman's feelings were very sensitive, she still clearly felt that Ning Zhiheng still had a lot of secrets and didn't want to let him know, let alone let others know, this man always observed and dealt with everything around him with a nervous and vigilant mentality, his psychological defense line was too heavy!
Early the next morning, as soon as the Wuhan Military Intelligence Investigation Department walked into his office, the confidential secretary waited in the front hall of the office, saw that everyone was coming in, and immediately stood upright.
"Take a seat!"
When he saw him, he couldn't help asking, "Is there something going on so early?" Didn't you work the night shift yesterday! ”
The office is busy, and there are usually four secretaries in his secretary's room, who take turns on duty every day in case of emergency.
The confidential secretary handed over a document bag in his hand to the seat and said: "In the early hours of this morning, the stationmaster of Shanghai Station Ning sent a telegram, using a heavy code, top secret!" ”
In the past six months, the Shanghai station has become the most important source of intelligence for the Military Intelligence Investigation Department, and it has continuously transmitted Japanese intelligence back to the headquarters, and the information content is extensive, including all provinces and localities across the country, and it can be said that this alone makes it difficult for all other sub-stations to catch up.
Especially in recent months, the intelligence of the Shanghai station has been of great help to the Battle of Xuzhou, this time the Battle of Xuzhou has won a major victory, the results are brilliant, the top commander of the theater is very appreciative of the performance of the Military Intelligence Investigation Department, at the meeting of the General Headquarters, so that the leader's face has been greatly increased!
After all, in this battle of Xuzhou, most of the arduous battles were completed by local miscellaneous armies, and the final proud results made the central army, which has always prided itself as elite, quite embarrassed, and the leader was happy at the same time, but also a little embarrassed.
The military intelligence investigation department, which is the leader's henchmen, can provide all kinds of information needed for the operation in a timely and accurate manner, and has cooperated very well with the front-line operations, and has performed very prominently, so this has become a major highlight, and the leader has repeatedly praised the department, and even promised the military intelligence investigation department to upgrade the administrative level as soon as possible, from the division-level unit to the bureau level, not only to expand the intelligence agency, but also the loyal and righteous national salvation army under its command, can also replenish the troops again, expand the scale, This also makes the position in the hearts of the leaders more and more secure.
For this reason, the department has always been extremely concerned about the intelligence of the Shanghai station, and specially ordered that as long as the information of the Shanghai station is the first time to report to him, of course, the intelligence of the Shanghai station has never disappointed him.
And this piece of information was specially marked as top secret, with Ning Zhiheng's prudence, it must be a very important piece of information that can reach this level of secrecy.
