Shanghai, the adventurer's paradise and the city that never sleeps, is China's financial and industrial center and an international metropolis with a mix of foreign customs and customs. Although there are colorful shops, dazzling shop windows, and endless traffic here www.biquge.info it is more like a collage of cities, with all kinds of people living in it. Intellectuals, petty citizens, workers, rickshaw pullers, beggars, thugs, **, entertainers, vendors, adventurers, and a large number of newcomers and passers-by, they cycle through a different way of life every day, each looking for their own living space in this chaotic city.
Of course, as an international metropolis, walking under the flashing neon lights, among the various people haunted by the bright and prosperous ten-mile ocean, there are naturally many intelligence officers from various countries.
In a coffee shop next to the boulevard by the Huangpu River, Wang Yuyin, wearing a white plaid suit, sat by the window, looking through the glass window at the boats shuttling back and forth on the river in the distance, sounding a long whistle from time to time, looking a little bored.
Since a few months ago, when he took up the post of director of the Shanghai Office of the First Bureau of the Intelligence Department of the General Staff of the People's Ming Army and became a staff member of the intelligence front, Wang Yuyin seems to have become accustomed to the current life of being full of lights and drunken dreams every day. Only occasionally in his dreams would he see himself busy in his military uniform from time to time.
Perhaps because it was still early, the coffee shop's business seemed a little deserted at this time. After scanning the few people seated in the store with his eyes, intentionally or unintentionally, Wang Yuyin unhurriedly moved the glass ashtray on the table in front of him, took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it, and took a deep breath, then leaned back in the chair again, and began to recall the order issued to him by the bureau.
Although Xiao Mubai's assassination in Chengdu was strictly sealed, because it was on the street at the time, it was a public place, and there were so many people, that kind of news could not be concealed at all. And after a night of circulation, many people have already learned the news, not only in the territory of the autonomous government, but also in other parts of the country. Since the news has already spread, it is natural that the self-government side cannot but express its position on this matter. Therefore, early the next morning, the propaganda department of the Communist Progressive Party informed the outside world of the assassination and issued a statement: "Those who vainly try to achieve shameless goals by despicable means will not succeed in their conspiracy, and the great Communist Party of China will continue to win victories under the leadership of the great leader Xiao Mubai, and the great Communist Party of China will surely build China into a great country." ”
After this circular statement was issued, the whole of China was shocked. The first thing most people notice is not the Communist Party of China, which has begun to assert itself as the head of the country, but the fear of the coming political storm.
In the late Qing Dynasty and early Republic of China, although assassination activities emerged one after another, there were few people with great political influence like Xiao Mubai. And the only few times did it not cause a great political storm. The assassination of Tao Chengzhang in the Xinhai year not only triggered the gradual collapse of the League, but also led to a complete break between the Guangfu Society and Sun Wen, Huang Xing and others, and the direct result was that it caused a great trouble for the People's Party. And this time Xiao Mubai was stabbed, although the person was fine, and even the autonomous government did not indicate in the statement who planned this assassination, and even related words such as Japan and the Black Dragon Society did not appear at all, but anyone with a discerning eye could feel the undercurrent that was surging behind it.
While speculation was continuing, a small news spread from Beijing that the Japanese businessman Toshihito Tada had been attacked at his club in the eastern part of the city, killing and wounding many people.
Coming back to his senses, Wang Yuyin picked up his coffee unhurriedly and glanced out the window again. Not far away, a young man wearing a hat was hurrying along the way at this time, and he passed by the door of the coffee shop after half a ring, but turned around and walked in. Wang Yuyin has already recognized that this is what he has to wait for this time, the person in charge of intelligence in the Shanghai Public Concession.
The young man walked into the café, glanced around a few times, and after seeing Wang Yuyin, his eyes suddenly lit up, so he walked over to this side and shouted softly to Wang Yuyin: "Director! ”
"Sit down!" Wang Yuyin nodded and whispered to the young man. waited until the young man sat down next to him, and then asked in a low voice, "How much information do you know about Little Japan's intelligence base in Shanghai?" ”
"Director, we have been bumping and bumping into little Japan in Shanghai in the past few years, some big and some small, and we have never stopped. I don't dare to say how well Little Japan knows us, but I dare to say that the little they have in Shanghai is still in our hands. Even if there are still a few fish that occasionally slip through the net, I believe it is not a character who can be put on the table. After the young man finished speaking, he looked at Wang Yuyin, who had a serious expression beside him, and asked with some doubts: "Director, is there any action going to be taken from above?" ”
The glass windows shut out the cacophony outside, and all that fell into Wang Yuyin's ears was the sound of music playing on the gramophone in the coffee shop. Frowning, Wang Yuyin nodded slowly and said: "Yes, let's get rid of all these intelligence points in Little Japan, this is the director personally relaying the minister's order!" ”
The young man looked a little surprised, this place in Shanghai is mixed, full of people from three sects and nine streams, and all kinds of information are transmitted very quickly, if you want to do such a big thing, it is not ordinary. What's more, the strength of the Japanese in Shanghai itself is not so weak. In the past few years, the two sides have fought openly and secretly I don't know how many times, although on the whole the Japanese have suffered a big loss, but their own side is not very comfortable. The previous director was seriously injured in an operation that caught the way of the Japanese, and it was Wang Yuyin's turn to take over.
Wang Yuyin understands the concerns of young people, although he has only been in office for a few months, but he has basically understood the strength of the Shanghai office.
"The day before yesterday, Chairman Xiao was assassinated by the Japanese, and the ministry was made quite passive. For us, when something like this happens, the Japanese are slapping our entire intelligence system in the face. The above meaning is obvious, since they dare to assassinate the chairman in Chengdu, then we naturally can't say anything in other places. Therefore, the minister issued an order to all our offices to destroy all the intelligence stations that little Japan had stationed in our country. ”
"Japanese?" Although the young man heard about it, he obviously didn't know what kind of force did it, and when he learned the accurate news, he was so hated that the roots of his teeth itched. Who is Xiao Mubai? He was the chairman of the party and the leader of the revolution. In the self-government and the people's army, it is as if he is already a great teacher, a great leader, a great commander, and a great helmsman. Even if it is groundbreaking on Tai Sui's head, it will not carry such a thing.
Wang Yuyin obviously knew this young subordinate very well, so he didn't shy away from anything, and even if he said directly: "The comrades in Beijing have already started to do it, and we in Shanghai naturally can't be left behind." I have mobilized men from Nanjing, Hangzhou, and other places to come to Shanghai for reinforcements. Even if this operation could not wipe out all the Japanese intelligence personnel in Shanghai, it would still inflict heavy losses on them so that they would not be able to resume their normal work in the short term. ”
"Yes! Director. The young man was also ruthless at this time.
"Then I'll tell you the details!" After Wang Yuyin finished speaking, he took out a cigarette from his cigarette case and lit it, and then continued: "According to what we have learned, the largest intelligence gathering point in Shanghai is this Ito Industrial Co., Ltd. located in the northern area of the public concession, and the name of the person in charge of this Japanese company is Yamaka Takami. On the surface, this Yamaka Takami is a serious businessman, but I don't know how many bad things this kid has done behind his back. In addition, little Japan's entire intelligence network in China's eastern China region is controlled by this kid, and he is directly responsible to Rihachiro Sakanishi, military attache of the Japanese Legation in China. The goal of your action this time is, of course, this Yamaka Takami, and I don't care what method you use, but in two days, I will definitely hear the news that you and your brothers will take off Ito Sangyo Co., Ltd. Questions? ”
The young man lowered his head and thought for a moment, then gritted his teeth and said, "No problem, Director!" I promise not to let go of a little Japan when the time comes. ”
"Well, if there are any difficulties to raise, as for weapons and manpower, the department will take care of you, you can rest assured about this. In addition, the concession is not our place after all, so let the brothers pay more attention to safety when moving! ”
"Yes, Director! Without further ado, I'll go back and make preparations first. ”
"It's okay, then I won't keep you, and after you successfully kill the old devil Shanhua, I'll invite you to drink."
"Live up to the Commissioner's expectations! Although the comrades in Beijing have already made their moves in advance, I believe that our brothers in Shanghai must be no worse than them. As soon as the words came out, the young man's face showed a look of fanaticism.
After the young man left, there was no need for Wang Yuyin to continue to stay here, and for the director of the Shanghai office, he still had a lot to do. After all, the Japanese intelligence base in Shanghai was not only in the public concession.
