Chapter 209: Spy War
Before returning to Shanghai, Hu Biao contacted the military commanders in Wuhan. According to the information provided by the military commanders, the intelligence war in Shanghai is currently very fierce. The military commander and the action team of the special high school also had many fierce confrontations in Shanghai.
Assassinations and counter-assassinations are also often staged on the concession side. Even though the foreigners in the concession were very dissatisfied, they also knew that this kind of thing could not be stopped. The biggest headache for the military commander is that some spy personnel have been rebelled against and bribed.
The only thing to be thankful for may be that Wang Mincheng, who has always kept in touch with Hu Biao, has not been involved in this kind of secret war for the time being. can be the section chief of the Shanghai Station of the Military Command, Wang Mincheng must also be the focus of the Japanese army's special high school.
Previously, Hu Biao was sitting upstairs and immediately withdrew when he found that the situation was wrong. In order to avoid arousing suspicion, Wang Mincheng also went upstairs to drink tea and looked at the situation on the street downstairs. Looking at Hu Biao standing opposite, he knew that this kind of caution was also necessary.
Although he did not have much contact with Hu Biao, as the only intelligence officer in Shanghai who had a relationship with Hu Biao, Wang Mincheng observed Hu Biao's movements while drinking tea. Hu Biao, who seemed to be smoking at the door, was giving him a code through gestures.
Following Hu Biao's fingers raised from smoking, Wang Minyi soon spotted a young man standing in the opposite shop, wearing a hat and pretending to buy goods. From the other party looking up at him from time to time, Wang Minyi also really realized that he was really being targeted.
Just when Wang Minyi was thinking about countermeasures, Hu Biao made a gesture to let him go downstairs and enter the mall. Confirming the meaning of Hu Biao's gesture, Wang Mincheng quickly came out of the teahouse and walked straight to the shopping mall opposite the teahouse.
When passing by Hu Biao, Hu Biao said very calmly: "Go to the public toilet and wait for me, I'll help you get rid of the tail!" ”
Wang Minyi, who heard this, still didn't say anything, looked left and right normally, and then walked straight into the mall. The young man who was following Wang Minyi also quickly followed. During this period, Hu Biao was also conducting counter-reconnaissance on the trackers.
It was confirmed that the young man who followed Wang Minyi did not seem to have an accomplice. Following the young man, Hu Biao also entered the mall. Looking at the young man who walked into the mall, his expression was a little anxious, and he was looking for Wang Minyi in the flow of people, Hu Biao did not move.
Acting in public can also create unpredictable dangers. In addition, if there is a homicide in the mall, the nearby patrol of the concession will also rush over. This is not the best solution for Hu Biao.
When Wang Minyi entered the public toilet of the mall, quietly waiting for Hu Biao to arrive. The young man who was following Wang Minyi also quickly searched for the public toilet. From the young man's somewhat anxious face, Hu Biao confirmed his judgment more and more.
Just as the stalker was about to go into the public toilet to find someone, Hu Biao, who had been following him, repeatedly confirmed that the stalker had no accomplices, so he suddenly put his arm around the young man's shoulders and said with a smile: "Erwa, why are you here?" I haven't seen you in a while! ”
As soon as these words came out, the young man who was hugged hurriedly said in his heart: "Sir, you recognize the wrong person!" I'm not a second baby! ”
"Of course I know you're not a second baby! Follow me honestly, or you know the consequences! ”
Hu Biao, who controlled the stalker with only one hand, held a pistol in the other. Feeling the hard object on his waist, the young man seemed to realize something, so he could only obediently follow Hu Biao into the public toilet.
Wang Mincheng, who came to the public toilet in advance and was smoking, was obviously startled when he saw Hu Biao coming in with his stalker in his arms, and walked to the door of the public toilet and looked at it: "Who are you?" Why are you tracking me? ”
In the face of Wang Mincheng's inquiry, the young man didn't seem to want to reveal his identity, but at this time, Hu Biao said: "Judging from your tracking methods, you should have received tracking training." But I don't think you're a member of the Japanese army's special high class! ”
"Of course I'm not! Section Chief Wang, I followed you as an order, and I really have no ill will towards you! ”
The stalker's answer made Wang Mincheng stunned and frowned: "You are from one place?" ”
Listening to what Wang Mincheng said, Hu Biao was also surprised and said, "You internal people? What's going on? ”
"It's hard to put into words! Never mind! Knock him out and I'll have him taken away later. Speaking of which, it's all a little devil's doing. Recently, there have been internal ghosts in our military command, and many intelligence agents outside the city have been arrested and captured. ”
"They doubt you?"
"Everyone is suspicious! But my brother should believe me, right? ”
"If you become a traitor, then I can only consider myself unlucky. Just one thing I hope you remember, unless you can pit me to death. If I leave alive, then what awaits you will definitely be worse than death! ”
Although he didn't know what kind of organization it was, Hu Biao knew that in addition to the intelligence organization of the military command, the national army would also have an extremely powerful intelligence department of the Central Union in the future. The military command and the central command do not seem to deal with each other very well in private.
At this moment, one of Wang Mincheng's mouths is likely to be the Zhongtong that is about to be formed. Speaking of which, this should be a means for Lao Jiang to control his subordinates. Even if Dai Li is loyal to him, Lao Jiang still needs someone to check and balance Dai Li's power.
Although Hu Biao, who said this, was smiling, Wang Mincheng could also feel that Hu Biao was not joking. really let people like Hu Biao target him, I'm afraid that no one will have a good time, and he will live in fear of being assassinated all day long.
As the section chief of the Shanghai Station of the Military Command, Wang Mincheng could already sense Dai Li's attention to Hu Biao from the secret telegram sent by Dai Li. Although it is not clear what Hu Biao's identity is, Wang Mincheng still guessed that Hu Biao had been to Jinling.
Even the Jinling Dead Soldiers' Camp, which is currently the most sought after by the people in the concession, the chief surnamed Hu is Hu Biao. And Wang Mincheng came to meet today to confirm the news. If the speculation is true, he will be more respectful to Hu Biao.
"How to deal with this person, you can do it yourself. I'll report back to you later. I'll give you half an hour and I'll be waiting for you by the river in front. Remember, no more tails! ”
"Thank you! I'll give you an explanation for this time! ”
"It's okay! Although I don't specialize in intelligence work, I still know that in addition to your military command, you should have an intelligence organization. But what I want to say is, don't let the people in the special high school of the Japanese army see jokes! ”
Leaving behind such sincere words to Wang Min, Hu Biao turned around with a smile and left. After coming out of the mall, Hu Biao quickly walked to the Suzhou Creek, not far from the teahouse. In this kind of weather, although there are not many pedestrians by the river, you can also see people chatting in twos and threes.
The establishment of the Central Unification was also known only to the top level of the Nationalist Army. Hu Biao's ability to know this news is enough to show that Hu Biao knows a lot about the internal affairs of the national army. Before figuring out the true details of Hu Biao, Wang Mincheng naturally had to deal with it carefully.
found his cronies around him and brought back the stalkers who had been knocked out, and Wang Mincheng came to the Suzhou Creek. looked at Hu Biao sitting on the bench by the river, and Wang Mincheng, who confirmed that there was no tail behind him, also hurriedly walked over.
took out a pack of cigarettes from his body, and Hu Biao said very directly: "Smoke one?" During this time, the intelligence secret war in Shanghai should be very lively, right? I will stay in Shanghai for a few days, and if I need help, I will send the target information back then! ”
As soon as these words came out, Wang Mincheng's eyes suddenly lit up and said: "Brother Hu, is this true?" ”
"Do you think I'm the kind of person who likes to joke? By the way, in order to avoid arousing suspicion, you declared internally that I was the head of the operation team sent from Jinling by the bureau. I also know one of your military commanders in Jinling, so let's use his identity! ”
"Brother Hu, take the liberty of asking, you should be the battalion commander of the Jinling Dead Soldiers Battalion, right?"
Facing Wang Mincheng's inquiry, Hu Biao smiled and said, "How can you say that?" My surname is Hu, he is also surnamed Hu, and for more, I still ask you to sit down! During this time, I am Chen Gongshu, the leader of the special operations team, how is it? ”
"Do you know Director Chen?"
"What do you say?"
"Good! Later, I'll send the target materials to your grocery store. Speaking of which, most of the intelligence stations on the periphery of our concession have been destroyed by little devils recently, and a large number of intelligence officers have been arrested, killed, and plotted against them.
The most odious thing is that the newly appointed police commissioner of the Concession Ministry of Industry is also a member of the special high school of the Japanese army. That old devil is very powerful, and with the rebellion against the boss of the Green Gang, we are now in a very passive situation. ”
"It doesn't matter! I'll be in Shanghai for a few days, and I should make some moves. In the meantime, if possible, you will be quiet for a few days. After this turmoil, you should come out again and the pressure should be easier.
Again, I am not a member of your military command, and I want me to solve the goal for you and show corresponding sincerity. If you don't know how to do it, ask your bureau and he will tell you how to do it! ”
"Good!"
Wang Mincheng, who happily agreed, clearly asked Hu Biao to make a move, which was nothing more than giving money or weapons. For the military commanders who are dormant in the concession at the moment, they still have sufficient funds. The results that can be made are somewhat unsatisfactory.
With the premise of helping, hearing Hu Biao's proposal to replace the people in the lonely military camp again, Wang Mincheng thought for a while and said: "During this time, the concession's control over the lonely military camp has been relaxed. It will take time to get this done! ”
"It doesn't matter! Within five days, the matter can be done. When the time comes, I will send someone to contact you. If possible, I hope you can send two or three spies to the lone camp to find out what to do.
If nothing else, the little devil should find a way to rebel against the people in the lonely military camp. Although I can't rebel against my commanders, there is no guarantee that some scum will appear among the imprisoned soldiers under my command. These people, someone has to keep an eye on them. ”
"Okay, I'll send my henchmen to do this!"
"Lao Wang, you are the first military commander I met in Shanghai, and I trust you very much. So, I hope you don't live up to my trust. There are some things I won't say, but I'll let you know that you're lucky to have met me. ”
"Don't worry, brother! Wang has never changed his loyalty to the party-state and the bureau. ”
"That's good! When you're really in trouble and you can't fix it. If I'm in Shanghai, feel free to contact me! ”
"Okay, then I'm afraid that in the future, I will have to trouble my brother!"
Sitting on a bench by the river, the two chatted for about an hour. Looking at the gradually darkening sky, the two also separated directly by the river. But for many people, the wind and rain in Shanghai in the next few days will only become more violent!
