Chapter 565: Legendary Spy
readx; Gao Fei knew what Tang Shengming was going to do when he passed by his defense area!
Tang Shengming will become the highest-level spy in history!
General Tang Shengming, born in Dong'an County, Hunan, is Ji Li, the fourth brother of Tang Shengzhi. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info he is handsome and chic, shrewd and capable, sociable, and has friends in various political forces during the Republic of China.
He has been a student of [***] and Zhou Enlai, and has a very close friendship with Chen Geng. He and [***] have been friends since 1920. At that time, he was studying in the primary school attached to the first division in Hunan, and served as the director of the school, and the two slept in the same bed for more than a year, and when there was a lack of ammunition during the Autumn Harvest Uprising, he led a company to take a train from Hankou to Wenjia City in Liuyang, and gave the troops more than 300 "Hanyang-made" rifles and nearly 10,000 rounds of ammunition.
He graduated from the Whampoa Military Academy, Chiang Kai-shek was the principal, and he was quite important to him, and when Chiang Song got married in Shanghai, he sent a rich congratulatory gift. He and Dai Li, the head of the military command, are completely indistinguishable from each other. He was generous, and when he was the commander of the Changtao Garrison District, he once gave Dai Li a well-trained and well-equipped guard company, and Dai Li always wanted him to join the military command and help him, but he always politely declined. He was very familiar with Wang Jingwei, and his eldest brother Tang Shengzhi had always been a political ally with Wang Jingwei before he defected to the enemy, and Tang Shengming participated in the anti-Chiang activities instigated by them many times.
In the early days of the Anti-Japanese War, he first served as the acting commander of the Changsha garrison, and then in early 1938, he was transferred to the commander of the Changtao garrison and the commander of the security of the second district of Hunan. After working for more than two years, he felt that there was no place for heroes, and at this time Dai Li sent him a telegram, saying that Chiang Kai-shek wanted him to go to Yucheng and had a major mission. Tang Shengming handed over the affairs at hand, and rushed to Guilin with Dai Li's mistress, Zhang Suzhen, Tang Shengming's wife and the secretary of movie star Xu Lai. Chiang Kai-shek had already sent a special plane to wait at the airport.
As soon as he arrived in Yucheng, Dai Li drove him and Zhang Suzhen to Zengjiayan Mansion. At this meeting, Dai Li showed unusual joy. Tang Shengming asked him what the task of the "principal" was, and Dai Li deliberately went around in circles, and the sea and the sky were open. Tang Sheng knew that there must be a ghost in Dai Li's letter, and asked repeatedly. Dai Li was still tight-lipped, just asking him if he wanted to live a better life?
After two nights of talking, Dai Li got to the point. He said to Tang Shengming with great caution: "There is a very special and important task, the principal has told me many times, and I think only you are up to it. Most of our organizations in Nanking and Shanghai were destroyed by the enemy, and the headmaster thought that there was more important than anywhere else and that someone had to go. But the right person is not easy to find, and the principal thinks about it, but he still thinks of you. It's not easy for such a great leader to want to get you! ”
As soon as he came up, he put a high hat on Tang Shengming.
Tang Shengming was thinking about how to answer, and Dai Li continued: "The principal said that you are very capable. In the past, when Wuhan was crusading against Guangxi, you brought over a lot of Gui troops and made great contributions. Later, when you left Hunan for Guangxi, the principal didn't blame you, knowing that you were oppressed by He Jian. The principal knows you well and always values you. The headmaster knew that you were coming, and he was supposed to summon you immediately, but in order to make you mentally prepared, I asked me to explain the matter to you first. The principal was really thoughtful! ”
Tang Shengming said that the stakes are very high, and it is necessary to think about it. Dai Li agreed. Usually, Tang Shengming has something to do, and he can't make up his mind, so he always discusses with Tang Shengming. Dai Li knew that Tang Shengzhi, who was in the main battle, would never agree with his younger brother to be a "Han Annihilation", so he pestered Tang Shengming every day to talk. In the end, when it came to patting his chest and guaranteeing his "conscience" and friendship, Tang Shengming had to agree: "Okay!" I'll go! But there is one condition. I will never join the military or be your subordinate. ”
Dai Li was overjoyed and fully accepted this condition. "We can always be friends like we used to be," he said. As long as you are willing to go, you can command my two districts in Shanghai and Nanjing, but you don't have to lead. You don't have to deal with the people on my side, and of course you can take care of them when it's convenient. I will not let them trouble you. ”
Subsequently, he made a phone call to Chiang Kai-shek's chamberlain and asked them to arrange a time. After a while, the call from the attendant's room came back, and Chiang Kai-shek decided to summon Tang Shengming at 9 a.m. the next morning. At this time, it was the afternoon of Tang Shengming's fourth day in Yucheng, and in order to persuade Tang Shengming to agree to go undercover to Wang, Dai Li spent nearly 5 days.
Early the next morning, Dai Li took Tang Shengming to the official residence of Chiang Kai-shek in Shangqing Temple. Chiang Kai-shek let Tang Shengming go in alone, and Dai Li waited in the attendant's room. As soon as they met, Chiang Kai-shek opened his mouth with three words: "You are very good!" ”
Tang Shengming was immediately flattered. Chiang Kai-shek also cordially inquired about Tang Shengming's situation in the past few days, and Tang Shengming respectfully answered them one by one.
After shushing the cold and asking for warmth, Chiang Kai-shek's words changed: "I know that you are very capable, so it is like asking you to go to Shanghai." The stakes are high, and I think you are the best fit among my students. I am your principal, you are my student, you have to listen to me, now is the time for you to contribute to the country. ”
Tang Sheng saw that the "principal" had clearly explained the task, and he also praised himself, knowing that this matter was unavoidable, so he pretended to shirk it: "Principal, you have won the award." I'm afraid that I won't do well, so please think twice. ”
Chiang Kai-shek knew that this was a polite remark, so he said: "Ji Li, don't worry, I will call Meng Xiao over there to tell him." As for the old aunt's side, my wife and I can send a photo to reassure her. ”
Amazing! The principal called the student's words, which was too condescending, and the chairman of the committee had to personally send the photo, which was a supreme honor. Tang Shengming was inconvenient to refuse, and he didn't dare to refuse.
Before leaving, Chiang Kai-shek said: "This is good! If you need money in the future, just tell Dai Li, and you'll be fine. Tell him what you lack. You know a lot of people over there, just let it go. All the responsibility is on me, you have to believe me, the principal will not harm his students. ”
On the third day of meeting with Chiang Kai-shek, Chiang Kai-shek invited Tang Shengming and Dai Li to the official residence for a family banquet, and only Chiang Kai-shek, Soong Meiling and the two of them were at dinner. During the dinner, Chiang Kai-shek repeatedly expressed his concern and asked many questions about Tang Shengming's relationship with Wang Jingwei, Chen Gongbo, Zhou Fohai, Chu Minyi and others. He said implicitly: "You can make it clear to them in the past, as long as what they do is worthy of the country, they can be forgiven in the future." ”
After eating, Chiang Kai-shek gave Tang Shengming 10,000 yuan in front of him for the activity, which was worth about 20 taels of gold at that time. The photo promised to give to his mother last time was also handed to him in person, and Chiang Kai-shek personally wrote "Aunt Tang Save" under the signature, "Jiang Zhongzheng, Jiang Song Meiling" and the year and month.
When it was time to leave, Chiang Kai-shek told Tang Shengming with great concern: "Be extremely careful when you go, don't be careless, and be sure to keep in touch with Dai Li at all times, so that I can know your situation and convey instructions at any time." Tang Shengming nodded and said, "Thank you for the principal's concern, and the students should remember the principal's teachings." ”
When Tang Shengming said goodbye, Chiang Kai-shek took his hand and said: "You don't have to come to see me when you leave, goodbye when you win!" After a series of processes such as Chiang Kai-shek's "summons", "inquiry", "instruction", invitation to dinner, Song photos, and special expenses, Tang Shengming was officially appointed.
Tang Shengming stayed in Yucheng for more than a month, during which time Dai Li gave a detailed account of the situation of the naval command organization in Nanjing, analyzed the conflicts of interest between the Han and the Han Dynasty, and asked Tang Shengming to invisibly deepen these contradictions and win over the Han Dynasty. He made a special confession that he must have a good relationship with Li Shiqun, the person in charge of Wang's puppet agent headquarters, and if it is possible to pull him over, so that No. 76 can serve the military commander and connect the spy work in the rear area and the occupied area.
After these problems were solved, Dai Li and the others began to plan how to make Tang Shengming logically "defect" to the occupied area. Tang Shengming's suave surname helped a lot at this time, and Wang Pseudo-Han Jian Shi knew his son-in-law's style. Dai Li asked him to go publicly, and he didn't have to adopt the method of secretly lurking, so as to create public opinion to the outside world, so as to avoid the suspicion of himself and Wang, saying that he thought the living conditions in the rear area were too poor, and went to Shanghai to enjoy himself.
Dai Li smiled and said to him: "The more corrupt your life is, the better, your corruption is licensed by the headmaster, and it is corrupted by order. You want to make them feel like you only know how to play, and that's it. ”
After several discussions, Dai Li decided to send his mistress Zhang Suzhen to Shanghai to take the lead, releasing the air that "Tang Shengming is dissatisfied with the hard life in the rear and wants to live in Shanghai", and asked her to contact Tang Shengming's friend Pan Sanxing.
Pan Sansheng is a well-known white-faced person in Shanghai, who has opened several casinos in Shanghai, and often interacts with the Han Dynasty, and is very comfortable in all aspects.
The policy was set, Dai Li sent Zhang Suzhen to fly to Hong Kong half a month early, and then transfer to Shanghai, and then notify Tang Shengming to leave after all the arrangements were made. During this time, Dai Li discussed with Tang Shengming about the contact after arriving in Shanghai. Dai Li decided to dial a radio station in Shanghai for Tang Shengming to use, and asked Tang Shengming to give a pseudonym.
As Dai Li's sworn friend, Tang Shengming made a joke about Dai Li, saying that he was called "Yu Hualong". Dai Li was pursuing his new mistress Yu Suheng at the time, and gave him the pseudonym "Yu Long", which means the Yu family's fast son-in-law. Dai Li felt that "Yu Hualong" was very good, and said to Tang Shengming: "You will become a dragon in the future!" ”
This is a good sign, Tang Shengming, the son-in-law, really incarnated as Jackie Chan, and left his name in history!
And now, this legendary hero in the history of the Anti-Japanese War, a legendary spy in the history of world espionage, is about to reach his own defense area.
Gao Fei even couldn't wait to meet Tang Shengming!
Suddenly I felt a little strange: "Madam, why don't you choose a safer path and go from me?" ”
"Greetings." Song Meiling smiled slightly.
"A greeting gift?" Goofy was stunned again.
"I am very jealous of you now, but the troops are the main force of this winter offensive." Song Meiling said in a low voice, and then took a telegram: "This is a secret telegram from Li Shiqun, the leader of Wang's puppet spies, to Tang Shengming."
Gao Fei took the telegram, read it in a hurry, and was about to return it to Song Meiling, but Song Meiling had already said sternly: "Burn it." ”
Gao Fei struck the match and watched the telegram burn to ashes: "Madam, please tell the commissioner, Gao Fei knows what to do." Goofy will fully cooperate with this operation! ”
From this incident, Gao Fei knew that Chiang Kai-shek had completely regarded himself as a confidant. Of course, there are also purposes for which you must have your own cooperation.
And for the whole thing, you must keep your mouth shut, and even if you encounter some grievances, you must act as if nothing has happened.
Compared with the overall situation of the Anti-Japanese War, to a certain extent, Tang Shengming's responsibility is even greater than his own.
A medal of the Blue Sky and White Saying, a lieutenant general and a general, in exchange for his own essay on Wang's puppet regime and support for this unprecedented undercover operation, Chiang Kai-shek did not lose at all.
"How to do it, you and Tang Shengming will discuss, the commission will not ask, and you should not make any report to the commission." Song Meiling said, and suddenly the conversation changed: "I heard that Minister Zhou had a very pleasant conversation with you when he was in Yucheng?" ”
Gao Fei was stunned: "Madam, Minister Zhou did talk to me a few times in Yucheng, but most of them did not involve political aspects. ”
"Don't worry about it, the commission just asked." Song Meiling smiled slightly: "Okay, Minister Zhou is inspecting your troops, go and accompany him." ”
"Yes." Goofy stood up.
At the moment when Gao Fei was about to go out, Song Meiling suddenly said in the back: "Gao Fei, don't get too close to those people, it won't be good for you." ”
Goofy's body paused in the doorway, and then said, "Yes." ”
Shells exploded not far away, and the charging and shouting of soldiers kept coming.
"Minister Zhou, let's go down, it's too dangerous here!" Goofy raised his voice and said.
Zhou Enlai looked serious: "General Gao, compared with those soldiers who fought bloodily on the front line, it is very safe here." Don't think about me, compared to the soldiers on the front, it's already a lot better here. ”
Goofy nodded slowly, and stopped talking.
At this time, a group of wounded people were sent down from the front line, Zhou Enlai stepped forward quickly, stopped in front of a stretcher, and carried a seriously wounded soldier with a baby face, Zhou Enlai said with concern: "Little brother, where is the injury?" ”
"I was shot in the stomach by an Oriental man." The baby-faced soldier said bitterly.
"Take good care of your wounds, and you will definitely be cured." Zhou Enshu hurriedly asked people to carry the baby-faced soldier down, and then raised his head: "General Gao, are the daily casualties large?" ”
"It's huge." Gao Fei nodded seriously: "Although the Yue army is trapped, they are well armed, and to be honest, the individual combat ability of the Yue army is above our army, and every time our army takes a step forward, it has to pay heavy sacrifices." ”
"Victories are piled up by human lives, especially when the quality of our army's equipment is inferior to that of the other side." Zhou Enlai said with emotion: "It is said that General Gao's generation of famous generals in the Anti-Japanese War won all battles, but who would have thought how many hardships and blood and tears were hidden behind such a victory." ”
Goofy fell silent.
"General Gao, this time I came to visit the front-line soldiers, and second, I, Zhou Enlai, came to collect debts from General Gao." Zhou Enlai suddenly said with a smile.
"Debt collection?" Gao Fei was stunned, what debt did he owe Zhou Enlai?
Zhou Enlai smiled and said, "Does General Gao remember what he promised Zhou Enlai in Yucheng?" ”
Goofy suddenly realized.
At that time, Zhou Enlai in Yucheng once said to himself: "On the basis of the National War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, all units of our Eighth Route Army and the New Fourth Army are also bravely resisting the Japanese invaders, but our conditions are poor and there is a serious shortage of materials, especially in ammunition and medicine, this problem is particularly prominent." Previously, our transportation pipelines had been blocked by the Japanese army, and a large number of wounded and sick people were forced to struggle on the death line because they could not receive timely treatment. So, I would like to ask General Gao for help! ”
Gao Fei did not agree positively, but he told Zhou Enlai: "Although I can't, I can't stop the help given to you by the people, Minister Zhou, such as non-governmental organizations, they are willing to provide you with ammunition and medicine, that is their business, not within my jurisdiction"
"Minister Zhou." Gao Fei's brows furrowed: "After that conversation, I have already ordered a batch of supplies to be transported from Fujian to you, and it stands to reason that they should have arrived by now?" ”
Zhou Enlai also frowned: "No, we didn't receive it." ”
Gao Fei sensed that something was wrong, but he didn't show it on his face: "Maybe there is something delayed, I haven't asked about this since organizing the winter offensive." So, I'll send a telegram back and ask in a moment. ”
"Thank you, thank you." Zhou Enlai said sincerely: "General Gao's friendship with us, we will remember it." In the future, General Gao needs help, and we cannot give up our definition. ”
With Chiang Kai-shek on one side and Zhou Enlai on the other, Goofy felt that he was caught in a dilemma.
Now my condition is a bit like walking on a tightrope, if you are not careful, you will fall off the tightrope, and it will be very difficult to get up again.
Zhou Enlai said slowly at this time: "There is another situation, but it is a little difficult to speak. Most of the Jiangbei Army Corps under the command of General Gao has already jumped out of the encirclement of the Japanese army and successfully returned to the Fourth Theater, but a considerable part of them are still persisting in fighting in the enemy-occupied areas. It's just that some time ago, maybe because of a misunderstanding, there was some friction between us and our guerrillas. ”
"Yes, I've heard about that, too." Goofy said.
Zhou Enlai was referring to the detachment commanded by Thunder, some time ago, because of a batch of material problems, there was a conflict with the local guerrillas, and several people were injured on both sides.
Gao Fei didn't take it too seriously, everyone belonged to different leaders, each carried out their own tasks, and it was inevitable that there would be some friction and conflict.
But now that Zhou Enlai has proposed it at this time, we have to think about how to deal with it!
