Ning Zhiheng quickly returned to his home under the protection of many bodyguards, and Yi Huaan arranged a large number of guards in the villa, for fear that someone would assassinate the chairman again.

After finishing the arrangement, he returned to Ning Zhiheng's study and asked softly, "President, how can this happen?" Who assassinated you? ”

Ning Zhiheng had already taken off the bloodstained coat on his body at this time, and simply cleaned it up, the servants wanted to serve him to rest, but he was reprimanded.

He waited in the study for Yi Hua'an to come up and arrange the next step.

Now that he heard Yi Hua'an ask, he suddenly said angrily: "Who will assassinate me?" It's not those idiots at Shanghai Station, it's just wanton, stupid, no, it's not stupid, but they still know how to use the trick of diverting the tiger from the mountain. ”

Looking at Yi Hua'an's confused appearance, Ning Zhiheng had no choice but to explain clearly: "Shanghai Station mobilized a large number of people tonight and launched an attack on the banknote printing base of the special high school.

Duan Tiecheng had a good calculation, this attack almost killed me, but unfortunately I met Sagawa Taro, an old fox, who was not moved at all, and waited for the net, as a result, the hundreds of personnel who attacked the banknote printing base were all wiped out, and the personnel who carried out the assassination operation failed to withdraw to the concession in time, and a team of personnel was killed on the Suzhou River, and the losses were too heavy.

So there should still be some people who have not escaped the Suzhou Creek and are currently trapped in downtown Shanghai. ”

Speaking of which, Ning Zhiheng punched the table, watching so many anti-Japanese soldiers die in their opponents, which made Ning Zhiheng can't help but feel heartbroken, this is simply a disaster.

When Yi Huaan heard this, he was taken aback, Ning Zhiheng did not disclose the details to him before, after all, the nature of the work of the intelligence department is like this, a lot of information only needs to be known by the person in charge of the special project, and it is not appropriate to disclose it to irrelevant people, even if it is the person he trusts the most, Ning Zhiheng cannot convey every piece of information to everyone, which is not conducive to confidentiality.

Now Ning Zhiheng needs Yi Huaan to take over the mess, so he told him some necessary information.

Yi Huaan also understood what Ning Zhiheng meant, it seemed that he was going to arrange a task for himself, he hurriedly said: "I didn't expect that Shanghai Station would make such a big move and mess it up, so what should I do next?" Do I need to escalate the situation to headquarters? ”

"Of course you have to report it!" Ning Zhiheng slapped the table case and scolded fiercely, "A general is incompetent, tired of thousands of troops, this time the losses are so heavy, Duan Tiecheng and Wang Hanmin can't escape the blame, and there is no redemption for a hundred deaths!"

This time, I will personally apply to the bureau to severely punish these two people, but the most important thing now is to quickly rescue this part of the people trapped in the downtown area of Shanghai. ”

Yi Huaan asked with some hesitation: "President, if we intervene in the rescue, it will be difficult to avoid dealing with these people, and your principle has always been not to have any contact with them!" ”

Ning Zhiheng let out a long sigh and explained: "This time, that time, this time we must save them, even if we pay some price, we will not hesitate to do it, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable!" ”

He walked back and forth in the room a few times, sorted out his thoughts, and spoke again: "This time the Shanghai Station took such a major action, Duan Tiecheng and Wang Hanlin, who were the executors, would definitely command on the spot, so when the operation was launched, they must have been in downtown Shanghai at that time.

As for where they are now? The best outcome is that they die in the battle to attack the banknote printing base, or die on the surface of the Suzhou River, so that we all have peace of mind.

But I'm afraid that they are still alive now, and they are still among these trapped people, which is what I am most worried about.

You must know that Wang Hanmin, as the stationmaster of Shanghai Station, has all the information in Shanghai Station, the list of personnel, hidden identities, industrial distribution, etc., and even a few secret pieces specially assigned to him by the headquarters, as well as the communication methods and radio passwords of the two rescue teams under his command.

And Duan Tiecheng's identity is even more important, he is the deputy director of the intelligence department of the headquarters, and he has countless high secrets in his hands.

If these two people fall into the hands of the enemy, the losses caused will be catastrophic, and the military command intelligence stations in the entire central China region will suffer a devastating blow.

Another thing is that both of these men have met me before, and if they join the enemy, they will pose a mortal threat to me.

Therefore, no matter what, we must not let them fall into the hands of the enemy, and no matter how much it costs, we must rescue them. ”

Speaking of this, a fierce light flashed in Ning Zhiheng's eyes: "If you can't save it, you must also get rid of it to prevent future troubles!" ”

The more Yi Huaan listened, the more frightened he became, he had far underestimated the seriousness of the matter before, it seemed that this time the crisis was a matter of life and death, and there must be no mistake.

According to the director, Duan Tiecheng and Wang Hanmin brought too much danger to the intelligence department, the director is the core of the Shanghai intelligence department, and if his identity is exposed, the entire intelligence department will be destroyed.

The more Yi Huaan thought about it, the more frightened he became, and hurriedly asked: "The Japanese must not be allowed to find them, what should we do now?" ”

Ning Zhiheng was silent for a moment, thinking carefully about all possibilities, he knew that this time the matter was too serious, this would be the biggest crisis he had encountered since he was lurking in Shanghai, if he didn't deal with it properly, even if there was a little mistake, the consequences would be unimaginable.

He said in a deep voice: "Of course, we must first find them, according to our monitoring of the Shanghai intelligence station, since their establishment, their main scope of activities has been in the French Concession, and there has been no reliable contact point in the urban area of Shanghai.

Wang Hanmin was very cautious, and the only time he entered the city was to buy the old house of the Lian family, and the old house was large enough for them to hide temporarily, so I judged that they were very likely to go to the old house of the Lian family, which was the only place where we could find them.

If they don't go, it's heaven and earth, and there's nothing I can do.

But even the old house was not a place to hide, we had searched it carefully, and there was no secret room or tunnel to hide.

Once a big search is carried out, the Japanese will definitely be very thorough, and so many people, with no identification and no place to hide, will definitely be exposed.

So you must send someone to contact them, take them to a safe house where they can hide, avoid this big search, and then think about the long term in the future.

Do you have a safe place to hide now? ”

The intelligence work in the downtown area of Shanghai has always been entrusted to Ihuaan, who has done a very good job in this regard by arranging many safe houses and properties in downtown Shanghai with its abundant funds.

Hearing Ning Zhiheng's question, Yi Huaan opened his mouth and asked, "How many people do you need to resettle?" ”

Ning Zhiheng thought for a moment, secretly calculated, and analyzed: "There are a lot of people who attacked me today, judging from the crossfire, there are at least nearly twenty or so people, and they also assassinated two other targets, I judge that the number of people who carry out the assassination operation should be about forty to fifty people, except for the ten people lost in Suzhou Creek, now it is about thirty to forty people, you just according to this number, think about whether there is a place to place?" ”

"So many people?" Yi Huaan lowered his head and thought about it, and said with some hesitation, "Then there is only one place, we have set up a flour mill in the west of the city, and a few secret rooms are arranged under the warehouse of this flour mill, if it is crowded, it should be able to accommodate forty people, but once he is used by Shanghai Station, we can only give up this location in the future, it is a pity!" ”

"Then arrange it here, no matter what the cost is now, it will be worth it, they must be rescued." Ning Zhiheng waved his hand and said decisively.

He raised his hand to look at the time, and said in a deep voice: "It's one o'clock in the morning, and the Japanese can't mobilize a large number of troops to search overnight for the time being, but as soon as the morning dawns, the Japanese will definitely put martial law in the whole city and start the search operation, and then it will be impossible to transfer them, and now there are still five hours before dawn, you must take them out before dawn and send them to the designated place, it will be too late." ”

According to Ning Zhiheng's analysis, Shanghai has a very large urban area with a population of more than 3 million, and it is extremely time-consuming and labor-intensive to conduct a large-scale search of such a large urban area.

It would not be possible to do it without enough manpower, and even if the Japanese were to concentrate the gendarmerie, the special high school, and the police station, it would be more difficult to add them together unless they mobilized the garrison to help.

This requires a process, so they can't complete the arrangement overnight, and the most likely thing is to do it after dawn, which gives Ning Zhiheng a few hours to prepare.

"I'll arrange it right away, and I'll definitely transfer them out!" Yi Huaan nodded in agreement, turned around and was about to leave, but Ning Zhiheng called him again.

"You go and choose an intelligence officer who has worked in the Nanjing headquarters to contact them, it is best to meet Duan Tiecheng, you must explain it clearly, you must gain their trust, know the benefits and disadvantages with them, let them transfer quickly, and must not delay!"

Ning Zhiheng was very worried at this time, Duan Tiecheng and the others didn't believe in the team members he sent, so they delayed the transfer.

After all, at this tense moment, his own people suddenly came to contact him, and he didn't have any evidence, it was difficult to convince the other party, so try to pick a team member who had met Duan Tiecheng to go, maybe he could gain Duan Tiecheng's trust, even if Duan Tiecheng didn't know the personnel sent, at least Ning Zhiheng had to know whether Duan Tiecheng was among these trapped people.

"What if things don't go well, they won't trust our people and they won't leave?" Yi Huaan asked again.

Ning Zhiheng frowned, and said in a deep voice: "They shouldn't be so stupid, there is only one way to die if they stay in the old house of the Lian family, if they insist on refusing, you immediately mobilize two gunmen, guard near the old house of the Lian family, and be ready to do it at any time, as long as Duan Tiecheng and Wang Hanmin show up, kill them as soon as possible, and never let them fall into the hands of the Japanese." ”

Yi Huaan also quickly understood what Ning Zhiheng meant, and immediately nodded in agreement, and left quickly to arrange the transfer.
