Chapter 44: Left and Right?
Tang Yi sat in the office a little distracted, he was holding a cup of tea, his heart was extremely entangled, after sending Luo Xian to the bookstore yesterday, he had completed the first step to enter the Communist Party.
But do you really want to lurk in? Infiltrating a friendly army that is also in the anti-Japanese united front?
"Ugh."
Tang Yi sighed, suppressed his chaotic thoughts and stood up, whenever there was a problem that bothered his spirit, he liked to go to the balcony to breathe.
On the balcony of the office, Tang Yi lit a cigarette, he took a deep breath, and then highlighted the thick smoke, as if to spit out the chaotic thoughts and smoke from his heart.
On today's anti-Japanese battlefield, the main force of the battle is still the national army, and even the soldiers of the military commander who sacrifice the most behind the enemy lines.
However, although the number of our party's intelligence personnel behind enemy lines is not much compared with that of the military commanders, Tang Yi can see a different spirit from them.
Last night he asked his sister Tang Jing, and the answer he got from her sister was "faith".
This made Tang Yi extremely curious, and he also wanted to feel up close what "faith" in his sister's mouth was.
"Knock knock." Two knocks rang out at the door.
Tang Yi walked into the room and closed the balcony door.
"Who?" Tang Yi asked.
"Deputy Director Tang, Director Zhou, please go to the office for a while." A voice came from outside the door, and Tang Yi could tell it was Aqi when he heard it.
"Got it." Tang Yi said lightly.
In Zhou Mingrui's office, Tang Yi sat on the sofa of the reception, crossed his legs on the side of Zhou Mingrui's coffee table, and then picked up the tea that Archie had just made for him and tasted it.
With a slight frown, Tang Yi opened his mouth and said, "Brother Zhou, why was he promoted to director, but his taste has declined?" The quality of your tea is plummeting. ”
Zhou Mingrui rubbed his eyes helplessly, and said: "I'm smart now, good tea, I won't bring it anywhere, as long as it is good tea brought, I can't drink half a catty, but it's gone, Brother Tang, you don't blame it!"
"Ahem." Tang Yi coughed twice in embarrassment.
Immediately afterwards, Tang Yi hurriedly changed the topic.
"Why did Brother Zhou call me here?" Tang Yi asked.
Zhou Mingrui saw that Tang Yi didn't match the tone of tea, nor did he entangle, he opened his mouth and said: "What do you say this Wang Zhaoming invited us to the banquet for, I don't believe that he has no purpose at all." ”
Tang Yiwenyan smiled and looked at Zhou Mingrui and said, "What is he Wang Zhaoming for, Brother Zhou should know it in his heart, why do you bother to ask me?" ”
"Hehe, don't I want to hear Brother Tang's opinion?" Zhou Mingrui replied.
Tang Yi pursed his lips, "Give me this tea, and ask me to help with advice, how low my worth is." ”
Zhou Mingrui waved his hand with a bitter face when he heard this: "What Brother Tang said made my previous good tea, it was really like he had wings and flew away." ”
When Tang Yi heard this, he was a little embarrassed and said, "Okay, okay, for the sake of the relationship between you and my brother, I won't care about this tea." ”
After that, Tang Yi stood up and walked to Zhou Mingrui and sat down, he looked at Zhou Mingrui seriously and said, "Brother Zhou, do you know that there is no good wine in wine, and there is no good banquet in the banquet?" ”
Tang Yi knew that Zhou Mingrui was also a smart person, and he could more or less guess some of the inside information, so it was better to explain it to him directly, and then make the next set and let him get into it unconsciously.
Zhou Mingrui frowned, "Of course I know." He said.
"Since Brother Zhou knows, why do you want to ask me again?" Tang Yi said.
"Don't I want to get your confirmation here?" Zhou Ming replied.
Tang Yi smiled and said: "Not many people know about the establishment of the secret service headquarters, but of course they can't hide it from Wang Zhaoming, but since he knows, he should understand that the secret service headquarters is under the full leadership of the Japanese, and he has set up a banquet this time to set up a leader's style, I am afraid that he has the intention to control the secret service headquarters." ”
Zhou Mingrui nodded approvingly and said, "So I'm a little confused." ”
"Don't know what?" Tang Yi asked.
"Brother Tang, you see, we said before that after Wang Zhaoming's group arrives in Shanghai, it will definitely be necessary to hug the thighs of the Japanese if they can gain a firm foothold in the new government, but now that we are hugging the thighs of the Japanese, Wang Zhaoming has come to woo us again, where should we go?" Zhou Mingrui replied.
Tang Yi heard this, and understood in his heart that this Zhou Mingrui had bitten the hook.
He is vacillating between the Japanese and Wang Zhaoming, but according to the previous plan with Gu Hongliang, this secret service headquarters will inevitably return to the hands of the new government in the future, and this Zhou Mingrui will be a stumbling block on his way to promotion, so...
Thinking of this, Tang Yi smiled, he looked like he was in control of the overall situation, and said confidently: "Brother Zhou, who do you think is the biggest in the new government?" ”
"Needless to say, of course it's Wang Zhaoming." Zhou Mingrui replied.
"So who helped Wang Zhaoming up?" Tang Yi asked again.
"Naturally, it's Japanese." Zhou Mingrui replied.
As soon as the words fell, Zhou Mingrui seemed to think of something, and only after a while did he say in a deep voice: "What does Brother Tang mean is that no matter how powerful this Wang Zhaoming is, he is just a puppet of the Japanese after all, so we still have to hug the thighs of the Japanese?" ”
Tang Yi nodded and said solemnly: "Brother Zhou is an understanding person. ”
In fact, this is not wrong, but Zhou Mingrui does not know that the Japanese that Tang Yi said are the Japanese government, but the Japanese that Zhou Mingrui understands are only the Japanese military police headquarters.
In the original history, the Japanese took the initiative to hand over the headquarters of Agent No. 76 to the "Wang" puppet government, and themselves set up the Mei agency in Shanghai to monitor the "Wang" puppet regime.
Since tasting the sweetness of the puppet Manchukuo, the Japanese have been thinking of following the puppet Manchukuo method and supporting a puppet government of the Republic of China in the occupied areas of the country, so that it can be justified in the international community and can also seek benefits from the land of China under the pretense of the Chinese people's own hands.
After getting Tang Yi's affirmative answer, Zhou Mingrui asked again: "In that case, how will we arrange the dinner tonight?" Do you not buy his Wang Zhaoming's account or? ”
Hearing this, Tang Yi smiled confidently and said to Zhou Mingrui: "Brother Zhou, don't worry, I have already thought about it, and when the time comes, I will put on an appearance of standing on Wang Zhaoming's side, and Brother Zhou, you will continue to stand on the side of the Japanese, so that you and I can be left and right wherever we are." ”
Zhou Mingrui was immediately overjoyed when he heard this, looked at Tang Yi with a serious face and said, "Brother Tang is really talented, so I am afraid that I will wronged Brother Tang." ”
"Hey! Brother Zhou, let's not talk about this, I just hope that Brother Zhou doesn't forget my goodness! Tang Yi looked like he was sticking a knife in his brother's ribs.
