Chapter 623: Spreading the News
When Zheng Wenyou saw the telegram from the headquarters, he was very depressed.
"Deputy Stationmaster Zheng, as a veteran military commander, you should know more about group discipline than I do. If you don't report the action beforehand, you don't take me seriously. It's ugly, you didn't take the headquarters and Mr. Dai seriously. Lu Chengzhou said earnestly.
Zheng Wenyou thought he was very smart and wanted to take credit.
If he cooperates with himself, he may be able to convince headquarters.
For Lu Chengzhou, it's just a matter of taking one more telegram and reporting it in advance.
"At that time, the situation was urgent, and I really didn't have time to come back and report." Zheng Wenyou still insisted.
"I have an inside line in the Japanese Defense Forces Command, do you want to investigate the list you provided?" Lu Chengzhou said suddenly.
The names provided by Zheng Wenyou are very ordinary, they are all ordinary Japanese names, what is Shuji Asano, Kimuraichi, etc., these names are not more than 100 in the Japanese army, but there are dozens.
But Lu Chengzhou believes that if Zheng Wenyou is asked to provide further information, such as their unit number and the mailing address in Japan, Zheng Wenyou may not be able to say.
Sure enough, when Zheng Wenyou heard this, his eyes suddenly showed hesitation.
The names of the people he provided were just made up by himself, and if the match really had a channel to investigate, it would be revealed when he checked it.
"Don't mention your plan again. No, to be precise, it should not be mentioned to the above, externally, it can still be talked about. Lu Chengzhou said with a smile.
"Externally?" Zheng Wenyou was stunned.
"Not bad. The Japanese forbade the mutiny of soldiers, and if they knew that some soldiers were going to do it, they would definitely be even more alarmed. Lu Chengzhou smiled.
"But......," Zheng Wenyou said hesitantly, he wanted to say, "but the rebellion is fake." ”
But when the words came to his lips, he shrank back again.
"No, according to this statement, spread the word." Lu Chengzhou saw Zheng Wenyou's expression, and was even more convinced of his guess.
Zheng Wenyou didn't say anything, he knew that his little bit of caution was discovered by the match.
At the same time, Zheng Wenyou suddenly found that the plan he had finally come up with was also used by matches.
Spreading disinformation is also one of the basic skills of an agent.
Lu Chengzhou's news in the British Concession has always been very well-informed.
What's more, this is a rumor spread by him personally.
Soon, Lu Chengzhou reported the news to Nozaki.
"Mr. Nozaki, this must be a trick of the anti-Japanese elements." Lu Chengzhou said firmly.
"Shuji Asano? Kimura Ichi? Nozaki muttered.
All the soldiers who participated in the mutiny were sent back to Japan.
"Mr. Nozaki, I guess these so-called names may also be pseudonyms." Lu Chengzhou said.
These two names are indeed relatively common Japanese names.
However, he was not sure whether there were two names among the more than 3,000 mutinous soldiers.
"Whether it's a pseudonym or not, you can find out after the investigation." Nozaki waved his hand at Lu Chengzhou.
This was an internal matter of the Japanese army, and after the incident, the Japanese secret service ordered that it should be kept absolutely secret.
However, not only did the news come out, but the mutinous soldiers also colluded with the military commanders and prepared to surrender to the national army.
If it is found out, it will not be as simple as a scandal.
Surrender is much more serious than the nature of the mutiny, and the soldiers who participated in the mutiny will be sentenced at most when they return home.
However, if they are found to be able to surrender to the national army, there is only one way: death.
Whether it's a trick or not, or whether these names are true or not, Nozaki must report to Hiroshi Kawasaki as soon as possible.
To his surprise, the gendarmerie also received information in this regard.
In the afternoon, Lu Chengzhou went to see Niu Shaoshan as a match, and asked him to try to inquire about the whereabouts of "Shuji Asano" and "Kimuraichi", and if he was still in Haigu, he must try to rescue him.
On the Japanese side, although there is also speculation, this may be a ploy of the military commanders.
However, the news from all sides has denied this.
Because the Japanese side suppressed it too quickly, the soldiers who participated in the mutiny were all sent back to China.
"The news has spread so quickly this time, and it is very likely that the CCP will also be involved." Hiroshi Kawasaki said with a deep groan.
"I'll look into it." Nozaki said.
If the military commanders did instigate the mutinous soldiers, then the CCP is very likely to add fuel to the fire when the news spreads.
After returning to the British Concession, Nozaki first went to the gendarmerie detachment, changed into civilian clothes, and then took a rickshaw to Yongjili.
He had to meet with Zhao Jianqiu and ask him to pay attention to the situation of the Haigu City Committee.
After Zheng Wenyou was assigned a task, he was really disappointed.
It's like he worked hard to plant a peach tree, and finally he was able to pick the fruit, but the match took the lead and plucked all the ripe peaches.
The idea of plotting against the Japanese soldiers was the first thing that came to his mind.
But there's nothing to report in advance, what's the big deal?
However, he didn't expect that this so-called plan was completely made up.
Even if Lu Chengzhou didn't notice it, Dai Li in Chongqing also noticed it.
Fortunately, Lu Chengzhou mentioned it in the telegram, otherwise Zheng Wenyou would not only be verbally criticized in this matter, but both of them would have to be punished.
Zheng Wenyou, who learned from the pain, felt that he should still do something practical.
Since we can't fool the matches, let's do some action.
The military unification has always been good at action, and if he can get rid of a certain traitor agent, will the headquarters still criticize him?
Zheng Wenyou's attention was still on the gendarmerie detachment.
All those who came and went in the gendarmerie detachments were the main targets of his attention.
When Nozaki's car returned, Zheng Wenyou also noticed.
Although he knew that sitting in the car was Nozaki, the head of the largest Japanese spy in the British Concession, there was nothing he could do about him.
However, when Nozaki changed into civilian clothes and came out, Zheng Wenyou noticed it immediately.
He has always made the assassination of Nozaki his primary goal.
It's just that Nozaki rarely acts alone, but he didn't expect to give himself a chance today.
Zheng Wenyou followed Nozaki from afar, as an old military commander, his ability in this area is still very strong.
Nozaki didn't expect that there were still people in the British Concession who dared to follow him.
As he approached Yongjiri, he began to pay attention to what was behind him.
At this time, Zheng Wenyou had already raised his vigilance, was particularly cautious, and was not discovered.
Seeing Nozaki frequently paying attention to the situation behind him, Zheng Wenyou was very excited, and he felt that he would soon find out.
What Zheng Wenyou didn't expect was that Nozaki crossed Wenqi Road and suddenly got off when he was about to reach the border of the British Concession.
He did not go to see anyone, but walked out of the British Concession from this border.
This surprised Zheng Wenyou, but he didn't hesitate, and soon followed behind and walked out of the British Concession.
