After eating a meal at more than nine o'clock in the evening, Zhou Chengbin said: "It's not early, Xiaokong, clean up." Jiapeng, you will sleep in the house where I lived for the past two days. Zezhi, can you hold it up physically? I'd like to talk to you again. "Zhou Chengbin's house is in the telecommunications room, and he is the only soldier of the internal security team standing guard in the room where people are staying in the county government, and Ge Jiapeng is the director of the military management committee, so of course he has to stay there to work.

Liu Zezhi replied: "No problem, go back to my office." ”

The Pujiang County Military Management Commission, which is under the jurisdiction of the Shanghai Branch of the Military Administration, occupies the third floor of the county government, and the innermost room on the west side is Liu Zezhi's bedroom and office.

Liu Ze's strength couldn't be supported, and he was not polite to Zhou Chengbin, so he went to bed and lay down, Zhou Chengbin poured him a cup of boiled water and put it at the head of the bed, and then said: "Zezhi, the reason why I had to meet Zhou Fohai a few days ago was because Wang rebelled and his old disease recurred, and many treatments have not been effective, and it is possible to go to Japan." ”

Liu Zezhi's mind was very fast, and he replied: "So it is possible that Zhou Fohai is actually in charge of the Nanjing puppet government?" ”

"It's possible."

"How did you talk to him? I guess his attitude is not as good as before, right? ”

"I really can't hide anything from you, and Zhou Fohai doesn't dare to admit it, after all, we have evidence of his private contact with the military commander. First of all, he said to me that he was willing to continue to maintain contact in private. ”

Liu Zezhi scoffed: "Wang Wei has also been in contact with the Chongqing Nationalist Government, and the Japanese also know about it. As long as one of the opposing parties is not completely destroyed, contact and negotiation is a means of extending the war. This old fox wants to play left and right, and dilute the behavior of hiding from the Japanese to leave a way out for himself into a private formal contact. So how did you reply to him? ”

"Of course I made it clear to him. Although on the surface, the Japanese still occupy most of China, but the discerning people can see that the Japanese are becoming more and more inferior, and Zhou Fohai still wants to keep the line of military command. ”

Liu Zezhi nodded: "These politicians, stepping on several boats, is their instinct. How sure do you think he is in defeating his political opponents? ”

Zhou Chengbin said again: "It's hard to say. Our army in Burma stabilized the situation and gained the upper hand, Boss Dai returned to Chongqing from Burma and ordered us to keep in touch with Zhou Fohai, this task will be handed over to you, I will hand over the contact information of Zhou Fohai's personal secretary to you, just wait for it to change for now. ”

"The only people who have directly dealt with Zhou Fohai in the Shanghai Branch are you and Chen Jinsong, why did you let me come forward? Old Zhou, I'll go back to Shanghai to command the sleeper agents, okay? ”

"No, there are too many people in Shanghai who know you."

"That's not a reason, is it? I heard that the day before yesterday, the wanted warrants, including you and me, were once again published in major newspapers in Shanghai and Nanjing, and the reward was raised by 50 percent, and our head is becoming more and more valuable. The danger of you being exposed to bumping into an acquaintance is no less than mine. ”

"Zezhi, to be honest, I can't let you be born and die in such a weak situation, and your main task at the moment is to take care of your body. Boss Dai also had an order: The Japanese will transfer the Shanghai Navy and Air Force to reinforce the Pacific Theater, and we can't do anything, but we must try our best to hold back the Japanese army, otherwise it will be difficult to explain to the allies. ”

Liu Zezhi sighed, his body did not allow him to be reckless: "That's good, if you attack the Japanese air force and navy, the risk is too great." I listen to you. It's not too early, I'll go to Jean Xiaokong and ask him to arrange accommodation for you. ”

"Don't bother, let's talk about it tomorrow, just make do with you. You sleep in the bed, I sleep on the sofa. ”

Zhou Chengbin has a good habit, no matter how busy and tired he is, no matter how dangerous the situation is, as long as he decides to rest, he will soon be able to fall asleep. Liu Zezhi is the opposite, sleeping very lightly. In the dark, he opened his eyes, and his ears were Zhou Chengbin's snoring, and he remembered Ni Xin in the past, every time he came to his dormitory to spend the night, he also took the initiative to sleep on the sofa......

The next day, Liao Kanghe took Wang Geng and others to Chongqing three days later to escort the medicines. Three days later, Wu Shun and Ji Gang came to Pujiang County, and another day later, Zhou Chengbin sneaked back to Shanghai with Ji Gang.

Since then, both sides have carried out a number of sabotage operations, and neither has taken much advantage. On 14 March, a piece of good and bad news came: Wang Jingwei went to Japan to treat old wounds, Chen Gongbo, president of the Legislative Council of the Nanjing puppet government and mayor of Shanghai, presided over the work of the government, and Zhou Fohai, vice president of the Executive Yuan, was promoted to president.

Nearly two months have passed, since Zheng Longhua was reinstated as the magistrate of Pujiang County, Liu Zeyi took Ge Jiapeng and others to prevent espionage, counter-espionage, and conscription while recuperating; The attacks and sabotage against Japanese puppet military targets in the Songhu area led by Zhou Chengbin also intensified.

On March 20th, Liu Zezhi called Ge Jiapeng: "Jiapeng, in the past two months, we have recruited soldiers and recruited public officials from the county government, is it possible to mix in spies?" Are there any liaison stations and action groups established by the enemy in Pujiang County? ”

Ge Jiapeng replied: "No, Ni Xin, I know a little bit about that person, and I won't be depressed and depressed because of a temporary setback." However, we also took precautions: after a month's short training, the newly recruited soldiers were sent to the second and third squadrons that were engaged in guerrilla warfare outside, and the first and fourth squadrons responsible for the defense and vigilance of Pujiang County were all veterans of the past. Public officials who have access to secrets and work in the county government have also checked the details. ”

"That can't be guarded against, from today on, you and I, Cui Feng can only have one person staying in the county government office building, and they can't appear in public places at the same time, and they must carry at least two guards when they go out,"

"Yes, your health is not good, Cui Feng and I moved out to live."

"Don't worry, after two months of adjustment, my body has recovered, and it is the best time in these four or five years. You are the director of the Military Control Commission, and you have a lot of official business when you go to and from work, and people keep coming to you, or do I move out and live under a pseudonym, and you continue to stay in the telegraph room. ”

On May 12th, Ge Jiapeng personally sent a secret telegram from the bureau headquarters with a smile, and Liu Zezhi said with a smile: "Look at your appearance, there is good news, bring it to me to see." You're an old agent too, and your joy and anger are all on your face, not like words! ”

"Isn't this no outsiders, Zhang Chi did a good job, at midnight yesterday, Pan Ganchen's department and Ren Hengwen's department mutinied at the same time, the Japanese army was caught off guard, and retreated more than 30 kilometers, and our army's 20th Army successfully crossed the Nu River and approached Tengchong."

Liu Zezhi was also very happy: "Great, in this way, the threat of the Japanese army to the Yunnan-Burma Highway has been temporarily lifted." The Yunnan-Burma Highway is the lifeline of the southwest rear transportation. ”

"The headquarters of the bureau issued a commendation and reinstated all the previous punishments of the personnel above the major level of the Shanghai Branch."

Liu Zezhi casually burned the copy sheet, and said: "The Japanese will not give up, Pan Ganchen and Ren Hengwen, who belonged to the Songhu Aid Burma East and West Route Army, jointly started the incident, and it is impossible for them not to understand the role of the Shanghai Branch in it. ”

Ge Jiapeng sneered disdainfully: "What if you don't want to give up? Director Zhou led Feng Gensheng, Gong Suhe and others to stir up the smoke of gunfire in Shanghai, Nanjing and other places, Ono Heiichiro, Ni Xin and others were exhausted, and the trip to reinforce the Songhu Army in the Pacific Theater was repeatedly postponed. ”

"Don't underestimate your opponent at any time, especially when it's in good times, because an opponent who is in adversity and desperate at this time may burst out with energy you didn't expect."

Who said that? It's really insightful. ”

Liu Zezhi didn't hide it from him, and replied: "Li Shiqun." ”

Ge Jiapeng was slightly taken aback and was silent.

At 12 o'clock at noon on 13 May, the military plane in which Ying Zuo Zhenzhao was riding landed at the Shanghai airport, and he saw that his face was solemn, and he hastily greeted the important officers of the Shanghai military police who had come to meet him, and then got into the car.

At one o'clock in the afternoon, there was a sudden thunderstorm in Shanghai, and the car stopped at the gate of the Japanese Songhu Occupation Army Headquarters. ”

Kagesa said to the secretary behind him, "Please ask the people on the list to meet in the conference room in two hours." ”

In the office, Ono Heiichiro and Kagesa Zhenzhao reunited a few months later, and they were very emotional, Ono Heiichiro said first: "Kagesa-kun has worked hard all the way, you have worked hard in the past few months, and the seat is not warm, I am difficult to support alone." Pujiang County has fallen, and the Songhu area has not been tossed by the Shanghai Branch in the past few months! The army that originally planned to reinforce the Pacific theater was unable to set off for a long time, and was severely reprimanded by General Okamura several times, just come back, the local base camp ordered me to strengthen the control of military materials in the Songhu area, and increase taxes, step up the requisition of materials, and provide military funds for the holy war. The heavy task of exterminating anti-Japanese organizations such as the Shanghai Branch falls on your shoulders. ”

Shadow Zuozhen sighed: "The war has been fought to this day, and the situation is ...... General Ono also knows the war situation in Myanmar, and it is getting worse and worse! The simultaneous mutiny of the Pan Ganchen and Ren Hengwen ministries could not have been an idea that arose only when they arrived in Burma. In the past few months, I have been in charge of intelligence and governance in Myanmar, and I have fought several times with Zhang Chi, the head of the Indian branch of the military unification, and there have been victories and defeats in each other, and this person's ability is not under Zhou Chengbin. ”

"BURMA IS A MATTER OF GREAT IMPORTANCE TO THE VICTORY OR DEFEAT OF THE IMPERIAL ARMY IN INDIA AND SOUTHEAST ASIA."

"General Ono is right, but it is the war in Chinese mainland and the Pacific that determines the fate of the empire. The base camp ordered the army in the Songhu area of the Pacific to be reinforced, and it must set off before 15 June; before that, the most urgent task at the moment is to eliminate the Shanghai branch of the military command, and the Songhu area must not continue to be so chaotic, otherwise it will be impossible to talk about raising taxes and transferring troops to reinforce the Pacific theater, and it will certainly affect the trend of the war situation in Central China and even the entire Chinese battlefield. The fall of Pujiang County must not happen again! ”

"What Kagesa-kun said is right, I will definitely do my best to cooperate. But the Shanghai Branch of the Military Command is not the original Shanghai station, the strength is not what it used to be, the third column under its jurisdiction has grown from more than 300 people before the defeat of the Chongqing government to more than 1,000 people today, and there are more than 100 hidden agents, including quite a lot of elites. How easy is it to say? ”

"The Japanese Empire lacked soldiers, and China had a vast land and a large population, so the principle of using China to contain China could not be changed. This is the preliminary plan that I drew up after receiving the order, and I asked General Ono to look at it. ”

Heiichiro Ono looked at it and nodded in approval. The two discussed some more details, and the secretary came in and reported: "The people who have attended the meeting have arrived, and they are waiting for the two generals in the conference room. ”
