Secretary Wang and Zhang Chi looked at each other, they couldn't believe it, Mao Renfeng said: "When is it, selling Guanzi again, it's not serious!" Still waiting for me to ask you for advice? Let's hear it. ”

Chen Jinsong, who touched a nail, replied: "The Americans are generous and rigorous, although it is a tea party, there are also snacks, cold cuts, drinks, and seat cards, and when they first start speaking, the guests also need to be in place, and they also need to sign in, if Quan Kanhu has no identity, it will be exposed soon." ”

Zhang Chi immediately understood, and interjected: "You mean that Quan Kanhu has an impersonation identity. It was not the first time that the U.S. Embassy had a tea party, and the people who attended it were those people, many of whom knew each other. For his own safety, the identity that Kwon Kan-hu used should be the first time to attend the embassy's tea party, and he is not in the same circle as the other participants. Otherwise, it will be troublesome to meet the person who knows him to impersonate. ”

Chen Jinsong said again: "Zhang Chi, you are thorough and smart." In times of war, in addition to the diplomatic department, other countries' institutions in China, and academia, the U.S. embassy also inevitably dealt with military and police units. Mr. Mao, please see: Two subordinate units of the Ministry of National Defense have been invited, as well as the Chongqing Left-behind Office and the General Staff Headquarters of the Sixth Theater, and there is also the anti-smuggling station on the Yunnan-Burma Highway of the Military Command. Kwon Kan-hu, an agent of the Japanese, the current Ministry of Defense, no, it should be the military authorities of both China and Japan, and the biggest task facing them is the Battle of Western Hubei. ”

Mao Renfeng nodded and said: "What you said makes sense, the biggest possibility of Quan Kanhu is that he came to the Chinese battle plan for the Battle of Western Hubei." Secretary Wang, do you understand? Get started right away. ”

At 10 o'clock in the morning, Secretary Wang came to Mao Renfeng to report half excitedly and half anxiously: "Mr. Mao, find out this person: Gu Jingping, chief of the Sixth Theater Operations Division of the General Staff, participated in the formulation of the "Western Hubei Operational Plan", and was originally scheduled to rush to western Hubei on April 1, but the front line telegraphed him to return to the team early on the 23rd. Originally, he was gone, and he could have gone with another person, but who knew that he left in too much hurry and took the invitation. This was also confirmed by the Western Hubei Front Command, and now it seems that the surname Gu did this intentionally, in order to prevent others from having the opportunity to attend. He was also invited by Ding Hanzhong, deputy director of the Chongqing Detention Office of the Sixth Theater of Defense, who also belonged to the Ministry of National Defense, and it was reported that the two were cousins. Mr. Mao, if his subordinates are not miscalculated: Quan Kanhu took away our battle plan! ”

Actually the chief of the combat zone of the 6th theater of operations? Mao Renfeng was scared out of a cold sweat, fortunately, there was No. 86, and Quan Kanhu's whereabouts were already under the monitoring of the military commander, so he didn't make a big mistake! "Are you sure?" It is related to the battle of western Hubei, and there is no room for mistakes. ”

Secretary Wang replied: "Please rest assured, Mr. Mao, the matter is big, and his subordinates dare not speak falsely." All the personnel of the Sixth Theater in Chongqing were housed in the dormitory of the Ministry of National Defense and were not allowed to go out without permission, so they chose the US Embassy as the meeting place. For the sake of secrecy, no intelligence department, such as the Military Command or the Central Command, was allowed to monitor the radio communications of the Sixth Theater, so it is not known exactly how the two colluded with the Japanese or what they did. ”

Mao Renfeng said while thinking about it: "The thing should be like this: what Quan Kanhu wanted to see was Gu Jingping, Gu Jingping went to the front line in advance, so he had to entrust his cousin Ding Hanzhong to meet Quan Kanhu to hand over the battle plan for him, and Ding Hanzhong was inconvenient to go in and out, and there were Japanese traitors in the US Embassy, so he thought of taking advantage of the opportunity of the tea party in the US Embassy to meet. Who else knows about this at the moment? ”

"In order to keep it secret, it was investigated by his subordinates, Zhang Chi and Chen Jinsong, and no one else knew. Mr. Mao, Ding Hanzhong will leave for western Hubei at one o'clock tomorrow afternoon, will he be arrested? ”

Mao Renfeng ordered: "This is not something that the military commander can call the shots, wait for my news." Prepare the car, I'm going to the Ministry of Defense. ”

Zhang Chi came in and reported: "Mr. Mao, the person who followed Quan Kanhu reported: Quan Kanhu bought a ticket to leave Chongqing at one o'clock in the afternoon. ”

"Only one? Is there any news about that guy named Gu Hua? ”

Zhang Chi replied, "No." ”

Mao Renfeng hesitated for a moment, and resolutely ordered: "From now on, stop following Quan Kanhu, lest he see the flaws and let him go." ”

Secretary Wang was very unwilling: "Mr. Mao, there is no news about the spy network rebuilt by the Japanese, Gu Hua has lost it again, and then let Quan Kanhu ......"

Zhang Chi said: "Lao Wang, if my expectations are correct, it is Gu Hua who is responsible for activating the spy network, and the task of Quan Kanhu to come to Chongqing is to cooperate with No. 86 to oppose Zhang Zhan, and it is meaningless to follow up on it." ”

Secretary Wang hurriedly said: "But I suspect that Quan Kanhu has a battle plan for the Battle of Western Hubei, if it falls into the hands of the Japanese, then it will still be necessary?!" Mr. Mao......"

Mao Renfeng shook his head and said: "You, sitting in the office is stupid, you are too far worse than Zhang Chi, Chen Jinsong and other comrades who were born and died on the front line!" Zhang Chi, you and Chen Jinsong are waiting for me to come back. ”

Secretary Wang, who was full of doubts, had to first notify the temporary action team to suspend and follow up Quan Kanhu, and then called Chen Jinsong. Zhang Chi put down the newspaper in his hand and said, "Lao Wang, haven't figured it out yet?" When will the battle plan be used? After the start of the campaign, of course, right? If Chief Chen lays out the ...... in advance"

Secretary Wang suddenly realized, patted his forehead and replied: "What Mr. Mao said is right, he is really stupid to sit in the office, and now he is not afraid that Quan Kanhu will flee back to Shanghai, I am afraid that he will see the flaw, our "Western Hubei Battle Plan" is true, but after adjustment, it will become fake, which the Japanese do not know, and will arrange troops according to the previous plan...... Great, I hope this time I can give the Jap a little color! Wait for the end of the battle in western Hubei to arrest these two bastards who betrayed the interests of the country and recognized the thief as their father. ”

Zhang Chi said: "The battle of western Hubei has not yet started, we have taken the lead by luck, and luck has finally favored us. ”

Chen Jinsong said: "Don't be too happy, don't forget that our old opponent Ying Zuo Zhenzhao is the front line in western Hubei. ”

At one o'clock in the afternoon, Mao Renfeng returned to the headquarters of the Military Command Bureau, Zhang Chi and Chen Jinsong were ordered to wait in the secretary's room, Secretary Wang brought a cup of hot tea and said with a smile: "Mr. Mao, after Quan Kanhu leaves, how to chase Gu Hua?" What else can we do for the Battle of Western Hubei? ”

Mao Renfeng took two sips of tea and ordered: "The all-people war of resistance, the military commander has to participate in many military operations, but in the final analysis, the military commander is still the intelligence department, and the supreme military authority will arrange the battle in western Hubei by itself." ”

Secretary Wang said: "It seems that the pursuit of Gu Hua cannot be done openly, otherwise the Japanese puppet traitors will suspect how the military commander knows about the existence of this person, and it may bring trouble to No. 86, and the secret pursuit will be for a while...... Do you think the members of the Temporary Operations Group have returned? They have not yet completed their studies in the training course. ”

Mao Renfeng replied: "You are right, the task of chasing Gu Hua and cracking the Japanese spy network will be handed over to the inspection department of the bureau headquarters." Zhang Chi, you will return to Shanghai the day after tomorrow, Jin Song, select eight operatives from the special training class you are in charge of, and two telecommunications personnel with better skills, graduate ahead of schedule, hand them over to Zhang Chi, and infiltrate Shanghai in batches. ”

Secretary Wang suggested: "Mr. Mao, Zhang Zhan reported to me that Quan Kanhu had arranged an assistant, a telegraph operator and a contact point for him, can you use this contact point to crack the spy network of the Japanese?" ”

Mao Renfeng replied: "There is no such possibility, it is not easy for you to think about the placement of such a nail as Zhang Zhan, the biggest possibility is that Zhang Zhan is personally commanded by Ni Xin or Ono Heiichiro, and the Japanese spy network in Chongqing is not under each other's control." ”

Secretary Wang was very disappointed, but he also knew that this was the truth, so he had to give up.

Zhang Chi was not at ease and said: "Mr. Mao, my subordinates proposed to send a secret telegram to Chief Chen on the front line in western Hubei and suggested that he not touch Gu Jingping and Ding Hanzhong for the time being, so as not to startle the snake. ”

Mao Renfeng replied with a smile: "How could I not even think of this? ”

Zhang Chi said with a smile: "My subordinates are too worried." Seeing that Mao Renfeng was in a good mood and the business was basically done, Zhang Chi took out two official letters and asked with a smile: "Thank you, sir, for sending additional personnel to the Shanghai Branch, this is an "Application for Additional Funds", please take a look." The subordinates understand the difficulties of the bureau headquarters, but the Shanghai branch ......"

Mao Renfeng glanced at it and said nonchalantly: "Zhang Chi, they all said that you and Zhou Chengbin have a knot in their hearts, and they haven't been together for a long time, when did they collude together?" How dare you fight me in the ring? What is your sin of deceiving your superiors? ”

Zhang Chi was taken aback, got up and replied: "Mr. Mao's words are serious, his subordinates don't dare, it's too little tax in the base area to be self-supporting...... Fighting in the ring? How can it be? Mr. Mao, you misunderstood. ”

Mao Renfeng smiled slightly, and said: "Ono Heiichiro ordered No. 86 to trap Zhou Chengbin, and the Shanghai Branch will plan it, why didn't you report the batch of materials used as bait?" Although I promised the Shanghai branch that after opening up the base area, it was self-supporting, but this batch of materials was unplanned income, right? ”

Zhang Chi is embarrassed, where did Mao Renfeng get the news? He stammered in defense: "The amount of that batch of materials is not large, since it is self-supporting, I didn't report it to you...... What, the shortage of funds, the Shanghai branch will find its own way...... The affairs of the base area are all handled by subordinates, and Director Zhou does not often ask about the matter of funds, it is the fault of his subordinates, and the time is too tight, so he has not had time to report, please forgive me...... It's not anymore, it's all the fault of the subordinates, it's not well considered, please punish the chief......"

Mao Renfeng snorted and ordered: "Even if the other civilian materials are specially approved by me to the Shanghai Branch, you can go through the formalities." I heard that there are still some shortage of control materials, you make a list and submit it to the General Affairs Office, and forward it to me for review and processing, you and Zhou Chengbin are waiting for disposal, if you dare to commit it again next time, you try! ”

Zhang Chi responded with a "yes" and put away the application in a sneering manner.

Chen Jinsong changed the topic to relieve Zhang Chi: "The subordinates of the personnel will arrange it immediately, Captain Zhang, if you have any specific requirements, just put it forward, I will try my best to meet it, it is not easy for you to be born and die in the enemy-occupied area." By the way, Zhang Zhan's lurking ...... My subordinates have a suggestion, I don't know if I should talk about it or not? ”

The purpose of knocking on the mountain and shaking the tiger has been achieved, and Mao Renfeng is not willing to do it for himself, so he said: "Let's hear it." ”
