Chapter 725: Heading to Wuhan (Asking for a Monthly Pass)
Two days later, Keiji Tsuchihara took care of all the matters in Shanghai and left Shanghai gloomily.
He didn't meet Ning Zhiheng, probably because he didn't know what to say after meeting, he weighed the pros and cons and finally decided to let go of Kitaoka Ryoko's matter, but it didn't mean that he didn't have resentment in his heart, and he probably didn't know what attitude to use to face Ning Zhiheng, so he simply turned a blind eye.
Ning Zhiheng was also happy, Keiji Tsuchihara's departure made him feel a lot more at ease, and from then on, the two of them were far away, and there should be no more intersections in this life.
The Tohara agency was officially renamed the Shadow Agency, and the Shadow Agency has become the highest-level espionage department in Shanghai, and has also become the leading core of the Japanese military department's spy organizations and branches in China.
The situation in Shanghai continues to deteriorate, and almost every two days, explosions can be heard in the city, and the Shanghai station and the assassination squad have begun to carry out assassinations at any cost, and there is a great tendency to intensify.
This also made the conflict between the No. 76 agents and the Chinese agents more and more escalated, walking on the streets, often encountered the blockade of the block for searching, late at night, the sound of gunfights between the two sides was heard from time to time, for a time the whole Shanghai was in the wind, the situation was extremely tense.
The situation changed so quickly, even Ning Zhiheng was unexpected, how could this still calm Shanghai become a bloody battlefield full of swords and blood in the blink of an eye.
This time there was a news from Muyu that there had also been a major change in the Agent Headquarters of Seventy-Six, and Wen Hao, deputy director of the Secret Service Department, was transferred to Nanjing this time to create the Nanjing Branch of the Secret Service Headquarters.
Wen Hao has been on the edge since he was transferred to the secret service headquarters, because of the exclusion of Ding Mo and Li Zhiqun, he has not had any real power in his hands, but just hung the false name of a deputy director, this time Nanjing needs to open a secret service branch, Wen Hao automatically asked Ying to go to Nanjing, which happened to be in line with Ding Mo and Li Zhiqun's intentions, and drove this eye-catching guy out of Shanghai, so Wen Hao chose his old department and rushed to Nanjing a few days ago.
In the office of Fujiwara Kaisha, Ning Zhiheng was talking softly with Takeshi Ishikawa.
Ishikawa Takeshi sat on the sofa, drank all the wine in the cup in his hand, and said helplessly: "These agents of the Military Command Bureau are crazy, they are simply forced to come at any cost, they have carried out more than ten assassinations in the past month alone, and everyone is nervous, and martial law is imposed every day, and I am also busy these days without touching the ground, arresting people everywhere!" ”
Ning Zhiheng was looking at the scenery outside the window, and when he heard Ishikawa Takeshi's complaint, he asked: "This is our big rear, and we have so many personnel, can't we deal with these Chinese agents?" ”
"It's not that we can't deal with it, it's that the other party is red-eyed, according to the confession of the military command agents we captured, the headquarters of the Military Command Bureau issued an assassination order at any cost, and they will transfer as many personnel as we arrest, I have to say that these military command agents are much more difficult than their counterparts."
Ishikawa Takeshi said that the peers refer to the Central Unification Bureau, which is in sharp contrast to the Military Unification Bureau, since the total annihilation of the Central Unification Bureau in the Soviet and Shanghai regions, and many hidden agents of the Central Unification Bureau in the occupied areas of the three provinces have been dug up, and even under the temptation of the high-ranking officials of the puppet government, they simply took the initiative to take refuge, and they betrayed their companions and organizations to the Japanese as advanced assets, bargaining with the puppet government, and the ugliness was full of ugliness, even the Japanese were ashamed of it.
Ning Zhiheng's brows furrowed, in the past month, although the military unification bureau's big actions have served the purpose of deterring traitors, the price paid is also amazing, at least dozens of agents have been lost in the hands of the Japanese secret service department and the No. 76 agent headquarters.
In addition to the sacrificed agents, a large number of agents were arrested, many of whom were unable to survive the torture and committed themselves to the enemy, but in general, the performance of the agents of the Military Command Bureau was indeed remarkable.
However, Ning Zhiheng is quite dissatisfied with this, these long-trained agents should not be used like this, their work should be more concealed and efficient, but now under the strong order of the headquarters, if a moth to a fire, emerge from the darkness, expose to the enemy's sight, and complete the so-called mission with great sacrifices, this is by no means a rational act.
However, the order of the headquarters also has its political purpose, and Ning Zhiheng is powerless to stop it, but his intelligence department will never participate in this cruel battle.
Ishikawa Takeshi continued: "Zhiren, you have to be careful during this time, although the target of these military commanders is temporarily on those Chinese politicians, but you should also be more careful, don't suffer losses, don't forget, and that Hirayama Jiro has not been caught, don't be careless." ”
Ning Zhiheng nodded, Jiro Hirayama had already sunk in the river, but this matter could not be told to Ishikawa Takeshiaki.
Ning Zhiheng sighed, waved his hand and said: "I'll be careful, Wu Zhi, the security in Shanghai is too chaotic now, I plan to go to Wuhan to take a look at my uncle, and at the same time avoid the limelight, you have to pay more attention to the affairs of the club, and explain to Akagi and Hirao if there is something." ”
"You're going to Wuhan?" Takeshi Ishikawa asked in surprise.
Ning Zhiheng nodded and said, "The printing I gave my uncle has also been completed, and it should have been sent to Wuhan a long time ago, but I have never had the opportunity, and now it seems that it is the right time." ”
Takeshi Ishikawa nodded, he knew that Fujiwara Tomohito's identity was too conspicuous, maybe one day the Chinese agents would turn their attention to this powerful person, just in case, it would be good to leave for a while.
"Don't worry, Akagi and Hirao are enough to manage the club, and I will inform you in time if there is anything!" Takeshi Ishikawa nodded in agreement.
Ning Zhiheng went to Wuhan this time, ostensibly, to visit Uehara Junping and send the printed manuscript to Wuhan, but in fact, he was for the mole's business.
He spent a lot of money to buy this mole from Miller's hands, and he had to start arranging the intelligence channels to cooperate with it, this mole was of great value, and he did not dare to pretend to others, so he had to arrange this matter himself.
Finally, he hoped that with the help of his relationship with Junpei Uehara, he would try to contact the intelligence department of the Central China Front to see if there was a chance to find the traitor who leaked the defense plan in the northern Jiangxi region and cut off this dangerous hidden danger.
Everything was arranged, and Ning Zhiheng boarded the train to Nanjing with the guards.
At this time, you can actually take a plane directly to Wuhan, that is, a few hours, but Ning Zhiheng does not take a plane unless it is a special situation and needs to be in a hurry, mainly because the safety of the current passenger plane is poor, and the turbulence is very bad.
After the train entered Nanjing, it was changed to a ship along the Yangtze River to Wuhan, and it took three days on the way, which was only to transport personnel, and everything went smoothly, which made Ning Zhiheng quite a headache.
Three days later, the steamer docked at Hankow, and the group disembarked, and they had already received a telegram informing them that Junpei Uehara, who had been waiting for a long time, personally greeted them at the pier.
"Uncle!"
"Jiren!"
Ning Zhiheng bowed, Junpei Uehara grabbed Ning Zhiheng with a smile on his face, and said: "I am looking forward to your arrival after receiving your telegram, I have worked the road!" ”
Ning Zhiheng said with a smile: "Fortunately, the road is smooth, which makes you worried!" ”
The two of them talked a few words, and then the group got into the car and rushed to the center of Wuhan.
The uncle and nephew sat in the back seat of the car, and Junpei Uehara asked in a low voice: "Shanghai is very poor now, and I have always been worried that you will be in danger again, I heard that you have been assassinated again?" ”
The affairs of Suzhou City, under the deliberate concealment of all aspects, not many people know about it, but Junpei Uehara, as the head of the intelligence department, still can't hide it from him.
Ning Zhiheng said helplessly: "Yes, the situation was very dangerous at that time, fortunately, my luck was good, but three of my bodyguards were shot and killed, these outlaws!" ”
Junpei Uehara smiled and comforted: "That incident was an accident, but I heard that the murderer hasn't been caught yet?" ”
Junpei Uehara is well-informed, and naturally has eyeliner in Shanghai.
Ning Zhiheng didn't have to hide it from Junpei Uehara, he replied softly: "The assassin has been solved, and it was Keiji Tsuchihara's subordinates who hid this person, but fortunately I found out." ”
Then he told Junpei Uehara about Ryoko Kitaoka, and of course he only said that Yoshiko Kitaoka intended to threaten him with the handle of killing the garrison officers, so he was forced to eliminate Yoshiko Kitaoka and Jiro Hirayama.
Although Junpei Uehara is not in Shanghai, he has guessed some inside information, and now he heard Ning Zhiheng's narration, which was not much different from what he guessed, and couldn't help but nod and said: "You do a good job, do things when you decide, you can't hesitate, these people are on the bottom, there is no bottom line in doing things, and they should be taught a lesson, but now there is no problem, Tuyuanjun has returned to North China, Shanghai is still ours, and there will be a lot less trouble in the future." ”
Junpei Uehara and Keiji Tsuchihara were old classmates, and they were quite friendly, but when it comes to the interests of the overall situation, they can't take care of it so much.
"Now the law and order chaos in Shanghai is all done by Chinese agents, they are crazy to assassinate officials of the new government, I was assassinated by them once before, and I was also close to death at that time, I was really scared this time, so I came to Wuhan to visit my uncle, and also avoided the limelight."
Ning Zhiheng said bluntly, which made Junpei Uehara laugh, he also knew that his righteous nephew's luck was too bad, and he was assassinated one after another, even if he had to be scared.
"Yes, now is a sensitive period, you come out to avoid it, although Wuhan here is not as good as Shanghai, but after all, it is one of the most prosperous metropolises in China, you can come here to take a good look, scatter your mind, just give yourself relaxation, rest and rest!"
Ning Zhiheng nodded and smiled: "Then I'm going to bother you, I'll stay here for a while longer and relax!" ”
