Chapter 87: The Leader of the Action Group
On this day, Zhao Lijun left.
Going back with Zhao Lijun was Li Haifeng, the former head of the Shanghai District Action Group of the Military Command.
Xiao Mubai and Li Haifeng have never met, but they have a feud because of the fight with Zhao Lijun.
This can be regarded as a fire at the city gate and the fish in the pond.
Xiao Mubai took over the Shanghai Action Group, and only then did he understand the power of the military command.
Prior to this, Xiao Mubai, as the deputy team leader, was familiar with it, but it was actually just the tip of the iceberg.
In 1940, as the largest spy organization in the Republic of China, the military commander's scale of influence had begun to appear.
The organization and distribution of the Shanghai region of the military command are the first major group, the intelligence group is the second largest group, and the latent group is the third largest group.
Between the three groups, the division of labor and cooperation, each with different genera.
All spy missions, including assassination, sabotage, hoeing, and rape, are within the scope of the operation group.
As the leader of the action group, the first thing Xiao Mubai had to do was to figure out the members under the jurisdiction of the action group.
The Shanghai District Action Group under the command of the military includes four groups of special operations teams.
The group of action groups that Xiao Mubai brought with him from Qianyang was just a special task force, not a regular establishment of the military commander.
That group of action groups, compared with these special operations teams, is even slightly inferior.
Four groups of special operations teams, one in Kunshan, one in Suzhou, one in Jiaxing, and one in Hangzhou.
Four groups of special operations teams formed a crescent-shaped semi-encirclement, tightly surrounding Shanghai, waiting for an opportunity to be on standby.
There are also intelligence groups and lurk groups that are also subordinates, and Xiao Mubai doesn't know who their team leader is.
And when Xiao Mubai became the leader of the action team, they didn't say anything, as if they were indifferent.
The intelligence group, and the two groups of colleagues in the latent group, could not bring any help to Xiao Mubai.
On the contrary, Xiao Mubai must always be vigilant, if they have any requests, the action team must do their best to meet them, and cover them in times of crisis.
The action team has little activity in normal times, and is only responsible for carrying out the general task when it arrives.
Therefore, the action group is a tool of the military commander and a sharp sword ready to be unsheathed at any time.
Under normal circumstances, the action team is latent, and the team members are usually relatively leisurely, as long as they are training and preparing for action at all times.
However, Xiao Mubai will not be idle, because he has important things to do.
Xiao Mubai took office with great fanfare, and in stark contrast, Zhao Lijun returned to Chongqing to report on his work.
Zhao Lijun left that day, and Xiao Mubai took over as the leader of the action team.
As a special agent of the military command, the head of the operation team does not have an office location, and he does not need to swear allegiance to take office.
In that Western restaurant, Zhao Lijun left, Xiao Mubai got the message from Chongqing, and automatically became the leader of the action team at that moment.
Although it is still the same, Xiao Mubai's identity has changed, and Sister Hua's attitude has also changed.
If in the past, it was a high-profile love and ignorance, then now, it is responsive.
Leng Qingqiu, on the other hand, has not changed at all. On the contrary, in the past few days, she has not given Xiao Mubai a good look.
Women are angry like this, Leng Qingqiu is not exempt from vulgarity, Xiao Mubai doesn't care very much.
On this day, Xiao Mubai received a telegram.
The telegram came from Tianjin, which made Xiao Mubai realize that the new district head, Chen Gongshu, was about to take office.
This telegram did not contain much content, only a few words, but it made Xiao Mubai feel quite passive.
This telegram disrupted all of Xiao Mubai's plans.
There is also a piece of information from BFIP.
At the moment, in that dwelling.
Xiao Mubai sat on a chair, listening to the Kunqu opera coming from the courtyard, feeling quite bored and frowning.
Xiao Mubai is still annoyed by this telegram, this intelligence, or this batch of gold.
On that day, Xiao Mubai planned to give an order and order three groups of special operations teams to come to Shanghai, quietly lurk in Shanghai, and wait for an opportunity to prepare to rob the gold.
However, the telegram that followed thwarted Xiao Mubai's plan.
There are some things that Xiao Mubai still thinks too simply.
Being in the military command, you can get the help of the military commander, but at the same time, you have to be constrained.
Yes, Xiao Mubai is now Ding Yi, not a lone ranger.
The lone ranger does his own thing, and he doesn't need to think about everything.
But Xiao Mubai is different, as a military commander agent, his actions must be approved by his superiors and must be responsible to his superiors.
Xiao Mubai now needs to be responsible to the new district head and Chen Gongshu.
Chen Gongshu's telegram was very simple, he told Xiao Mubai that the Japanese would transport a batch of gold back to China in the near future, so that Xiao Mubai would be vigilant and ready to act at any time after orders, but not rashly.
The intelligence of the intelligence group told Xiao Mubai that in recent days, four ships have transported goods by railway from the direction of Hangzhou and Nanjing, and it is very likely that one of the routes is gold.
That was all BFIPU information, without determining the time and date, without identifying the location and channels, without determining the number of batches, and without determining the number of troops transported.
Xiao Mubai was confused.
I have the heart to investigate, but Chen Gongshu's order is not to act rashly.
BFIU is responsible for investigations, the Operations Unit is responsible for operations, and other matters are not part of Siu's scope of work.
This made Xiao Mubai feel embarrassed.
Acting without the permission of an order is a taboo for military commanders.
In fact, Chen Gongshu is also worried that Xiao Mubai, a stunned young man, will do bad things and affect the overall situation.
Xiao Mubai didn't know that these two experiences had made him famous in the military command and made him a hot rookie.
Even Zhao Lijun is also planted under his hands, and Xiao Mubai can be said to be in the limelight.
Chen Gongshu, who is far away in Tianjin, is naturally clear.
Xiao Mubai was troubled in his heart, and he inadvertently revealed it, and was noticed by the careful Leng Qingqiu.
Leng Qingqiu hesitated, then walked over.
Leng Qingqiu walked to the back of the chair, held Xiao Mubai's head with both hands, touched his fingers on his temples, and helped Xiao Mubai rub it.
When Leng Qingqiu came over, Xiao Mubai noticed it.
Being rubbed by Leng Qingqiu, Xiao Mubai felt the cold and soft touch, and suddenly felt extremely comfortable.
Xiao Mubai remained quiet and did not speak, and the two fell into silence.
Xiao Mubai couldn't help but close his eyes, enjoying this rare tranquility.
Time seems to have stopped.
At this moment, Mr. Li came over for nowhere.
"Afterlife! Someone is looking for it outside! Mr. Li said tremblingly.
Xiao Mubai opened his eyes and looked outside, while Leng Qingqiu, who was next to him, immediately walked away.
Xiao Mubai got up, thanked Mr. Li, and then walked out of the house.
Outside, a newsboy stood, holding a drop of newspaper in his hand.
"Sir! It's your newspaper! ”
For a few days when he came to Shanghai, Xiao Mubai would subscribe to the newspaper and pay attention to the news in Shanghai at any time.
Xiao Mubai stretched out his hand to take it, and immediately noticed that something was different.
Xiao Mubai usually subscribes to three newspapers, "Ta Kung Pao", "Declaration" and "National Daily", but today there is one more.
And the newsboy took the money and left.
This was not an accident, with the agent's intuition, Xiao Mubai immediately realized it.
There must be something wrong with this.
