Chapter 784: Another Candidate (Asking for a Monthly Pass)
Everything was revealed, Ning Zhiheng sorted out Xia Bin's confession, quickly wrote a closing report, came to the headquarters of the Military Command Bureau, and reported to the bureau in person.
"Xia Bin spoke?"
In the office, the bureau took the closing report, did not open it to watch, but put it on the table, got up and motioned to Ning Zhiheng, and the two sat opposite each other on the sofa on the side.
"Spoke, but in two hours, this kid is all recruited, Xia Bin codenamed Modou, was captured by the Japanese during the defense of Nanjing, but he surrendered and rebelled, Ji Yongyan was codenamed Montenegro, his real name is not clear, he is a member of the Japanese special high school, the two of them are one-line contact, according to the confession, we have found a Citibank deposit certificate in the secret of Xia Bin's home, which is as much as 30,000 US dollars, which is the result of his betrayal of intelligence twice, and there is also a German-made miniature camera, Xia Bin used this camera to shoot the intelligence content. β
The bureau nodded, and then asked, "Is Song Anxian involved?" β
Although he has promised Vice Minister Song to let Song Anxian go and not pursue it, he still has to know Song Anxian's identity in his heart, so that he can prevent and control it in the future.
Ning Zhiheng hesitated a little, shook his head and explained: "According to Xia Bin's confession, Song Anxian only met Ji Yongyan by chance, and according to my judgment, Song Anxian's position in this intelligence team is indeed redundant, this time it was because of Song Anxian's appearance that we were able to find out Xia Bin, to be honest, it was actually this woman who spoiled their business, so I don't think Song Anxian is their accomplice." β
Speaking of this, Ning Zhiheng said cautiously: "This time it was all a mistake in my investigation work, fortunately, the bureau took care of me, otherwise it would not have ended!" β
The bureau seat was very satisfied with Ning Zhiheng's sincere attitude, he leaned back, leaned on the back of the sofa, and said with a relaxed expression: "I still have this responsibility, I can't let you run back to Chongqing to be a villain, but I can't blame you, Song Suyuan joined the revolutionary party in his early years and joined the alliance, for fear of implicating his family, he deliberately changed his name. The word 'Yuansu' was reversed, and he has always been secretive about the situation of his family, never talking about it with anyone, this situation has lasted for a long time, so few people in the outside world know the relationship between him and Song Yuankui, he doesn't say anything about this situation, and I don't know, don't care too much! β
Originally, there was this reason, no wonder Shao Wenguang, a veteran, still had this mistake.
The bureau then asked, "You have now started to search Xia Bin's home, is it a big move?" β
Ning Zhiheng was stunned for a moment, but he quickly understood what the bureau meant, and the bureau wanted to suppress the impact of this matter.
"When Song Anxian was arrested this morning, he was arrested in public, and then a thorough search was carried out, and the residence was sealed, this action must be a bit big, what do you mean...?"
The bureau shook his hand, and said with some disappointment: "When I came back from you today, I thought of another possibility, if I can't get along with Song Suyuan, I plan to take a step back, I can pardon Xia Bin and his wife for espionage, and turn Xia Bin and his wife into our intelligence agents, so that we can not only save the two of them and take care of Song Suyuan's face, but also let Xia Bin do things for us and pass on false news to the Japanese that is beneficial to us, in fact, this is not a bad way, but now, your actions are too big, With the intelligence of the Japanese in the Chongqing area, sooner or later they will know about your arrest of Song Anxian and the seizure of Xia Bin's residence, so my idea will not work. β
The original intention of the bureau was originally to compromise and negotiate with Song Suyuan, but the more I thought about it later, the more I thought it was a good idea, but now it is still too late to arrange, Xia Bin's wife was arrested, and the house was sealed, the Japanese will naturally think that Xia Bin has been exposed, and it is no longer feasible to use him to transmit false information.
Of course, Ning Zhiheng didn't want the bureau to do this, he spent so much effort to solve this case, in addition to digging out Xia Bin, a mole who is extremely harmful to the country, and finally for political achievements and benefits, the leak case is a big case that has reached the sky, as the executor who presided over the investigation of the case, his own benefits needless to say, that is, his subordinates are still waiting for this great achievement to be added to the knighthood! If the bureau is allowed to be treated in a low-key manner and pressed down, the effect will be greatly reduced.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but secretly rejoice, fortunately, he didn't arrest Song Anxian overnight at that time, and delayed it until the next day, otherwise it would be really possible for the bureau to do this, and he would have lost a lot.
Ning Zhiheng hurriedly said with a serious expression: "Bureau, now Montenegro is dead, and it is difficult to say what the outcome of the interrogation will be in the future, if he does not cooperate, this matter will not work." β
The reason in Ning Zhiheng's mouth was sufficient, so that the bureau seat had nothing to say, but the bureau seat also knew the little Jiujiu in Ning Zhiheng's heart, and he no longer insisted on mentioning it, after all, the next clean-up work still depends on this general, and it is inappropriate to interfere or strike too much.
"However, your idea is excellent, if you can pass on false military intelligence to the Japanese and lead the Japanese by the nose, this will be greatly beneficial to our next military operations, since Xia Bin is impossible, I have a good candidate here, I don't know if you are interested?"
Ning Zhiheng's next words made the bureau extremely surprised, he looked at Ning Zhiheng suspiciously, and asked, "Do you have a candidate?" Tell us more about it? β
Ning Zhiheng took a step forward and explained carefully: "I have a person in my hand, this person's name is Liang Shi'an, he is currently serving as a staff officer in the Military Service Department of the Military Commission, this person was in the combat unit in his early years, and later transferred to the Military Commission, and now that Xia Bin has been arrested, the position of the combat staff officer of the War Department can be vacant, if Liang Shi'an can be transferred from the Military Service Department to the War Department and replace Xia Bin's position, this matter is very likely to be successful!" β
The bureau looked at Ning Zhiheng with a smile, and asked: "Zhiheng, if you want to install your person in the War Department as an operational staff officer, how can you ensure that he has a relationship with the Japanese spies?" Or was he a Japanese spy himself? β
The bureau seat is clear and responsive, as soon as Ning Zhiheng opened his mouth, he noticed that something was wrong, this Liang Shi'an's identity is by no means simple.
Ning Zhiheng suddenly showed admiration, and hurriedly said: "I can't hide anything from your eyes, there is indeed a problem with the identity of this Liang Shi'an, do you remember the case of the Heishui Group in the Nanjing period?" That Japanese spy Gu Wenshi, in order to arrest him, we even imposed martial law on Nanjing City for six days, for which you were furious and reprimanded us! β
"Yes, there is such a thing!" The bureau quickly remembered.
"The one who reported Gu Wenshi was Liang Shi'an!"
So Ning Zhiheng began to carefully explain the specific situation for the bureau.
"You mean, Liang Shi'an was originally a spy for the Japanese rebellion, but you didn't pursue it and let him go?"
Ning Zhiheng nodded and said: "Bureau, Liang Shi'an was pulled into the water step by step by Gu Wenshi, Director Gu used important military intelligence as bait, but Liang Shi'an did not steal this information, which shows that he is still loyal and patriotic in his heart, and later tried to kill Gu Wenshi, and reported to us, we were able to catch Gu Wenshi, thus cracking the Black Water Group, the Snow Mountain Group, and the Valley Group, this Liang Shi'an has made great contributions, I think he is truly repentant, and he has made major meritorious contributions, and finally let him back." β
The bureau asked with some hesitation: "The people around him have all been exposed and arrested, will the Japanese still trust him?" β
"I think it's very likely, the reason why the Japanese abandoned him is nothing more than two points, the first point is to suspect that Liang Shi'an has been anyway, no longer working for them, but if they really determine this, then why not use the handle left by Liang Shi'an before, report Liang Shi'an to us, clear it with our hands, they haven't moved until now, I have investigated, Liang Shi'an has been in the military service department for the past two years, and he has been safe and sound, which shows that the Japanese are not sure about Liang Shi'an's things anyway.
The second point is that because Liang Shi'an's status is too low, and the Military Service Department belongs to the kind of marginal Qing Yamen, it is difficult to get access to confidential information, and for the sake of such a person with little intelligence value, they risk being exposed to take back the relationship, and the Japanese believe that the gains outweigh the losses.
But as long as we raise Liang Shi'an to an important position, let the Japanese see his value, and make them think that Liang Shi'an is worth the risk, then they may contact Liang Shi'an and re-integrate Liang Shi'an into their intelligence organization, and this is our chance. β
Ning Zhiheng's words made the bureau nod again and again, this method is good, use Liang Shi'an as bait, wait for the Japanese to take the bait, if it can succeed, of course it is good, not only can it provide the Japanese with fake military intelligence, even if it is unsuccessful, you can also plant an eyeliner in the war department, and there is no harm in calculating it.
The more the bureau thought about it, the more reasonable it became, and he said: "This proposal is very good, but the position of the combat staff officer is very important, and every place is being stared at, and it seems that it will take some tricks!" β
"This matter still needs you to come forward to solve it, such as persuading a big man to accept Liang Shi'an as a protΓ©gΓ©, even if it is nominally, there is a good excuse, the Japanese don't know the inside story, and they can't see the flaws!"
Of course, Ning Zhiheng does not have this energy, and he has to install a position of operational staff officer in the military committee where the bigwigs gather, and this kind of thing still has to be handed over to a high-level like the bureau seat.
In fact, Ning Zhiheng had thought about resolving this matter through Huang Xianzheng's relationship before, but later felt that this matter could not be bypassed by the bureau, after all, fabricating false intelligence requires a high degree of cooperation with the War Department, and the internal counter-espionage work is also responsible for the second intelligence department of the bureau, and he only takes over temporarily.
It can be said that Liang Shi'an's use can only be handed over to the bureau, so Ning Zhiheng simply handed over all the things to the bureau to be responsible, which can be regarded as taking into account the overall situation.
