Chapter 1125 Assassination Tang

December 25, 7:20 p.m., Shanghai. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Two black cars sent by the *** secret service slowly parked in front of a villa in Hongkou District, and the four spies on the car quickly got out of the car and dispersed to be on strict alert.

Yazo Seto, a senior spy of the General Staff Headquarters and president of the Shanghai branch of Zhengjin Bank, got out of the car door, calmly sorted out the high-end suit he had just ordered, raised his hand to refuse the top hat handed by the assistant, slowly stroked his shiny head, showed a friendly smile, and walked towards Tang Youren, who greeted him at the door.

After the reorganization of the central government, Tang Youren, who had lost power, realized that the leak case might be exposed, and he was so frightened that he did not dare to attend the next day's meeting, so he quietly left Nanjing on the evening of 17 July, and took a merchant ship anchored at Xiaguan Wharf to rush to the Japanese concession in Shanghai to hide.

A week passed in the blink of an eye, and Tang Youren found that the central government had not done anything to deal with him, and Kong Xiangxi, vice president of the Executive Yuan, also called him to ask about his condition and recovery. He kindly suggested to Tang Youren: If his health improves, he should return to Beijing as soon as possible and take up the post of vice minister of foreign affairs.

People are also very concerned about their lackeys, and after a close investigation, they believe that Tang Youren has not been exposed, and this panic escape is purely psychological, and people believe that as long as Wang Jingwei is still alive, Chiang Kai-shek will not dare to do anything to Tang Youren. Therefore, after politely appeasing Tang Youren, he successfully persuaded Tang Youren to return to Nanjing after New Year's Day to take up his post and continue to make outstanding contributions to the "Sino-Japanese friendship".

Tang Youren slowly settled down, and in the past three days, he has frequently spoken to the Nanjing side, and all signs show that there is nothing abnormal. Tang Youren finally put his mind at ease and happily agreed to attend the *** celebration held in the Japanese concession on Christmas night.

At this time, Tang Youren saw his old classmate and close comrade-in-arms Seto Yazo enthusiastically come to invite him, and hurriedly walked out of the door and greeted him with open arms.

The two shook hands and bowed, looking elegant and polite.

After a brief conversation, Seto Yazo and Tang Youren walked hand in hand, ready to board the bus together and go to the grand gathering hosted by the Bank of Mitsubishi, which was attended by the consular officials in Shanghai, the admirals, the heads of the secret services and the capitalists in China.

The Japanese concession is brightly lit, pedestrians shuttle, naughty children set off fireworks on both sides of the avenue and in the open field, Tang Youren and Seto Yazo raised their steps and walked to the car, Seto Yazo laughed and talked about *** The children are smart and cute, and they sigh and say that they are far away from home, and they will miss their relatives and homeland every festival, only the children are unrestrained and enviable. For this reason, Yazo Seto of China also read out Li Taibai's poem "The bright moonlight in front of the bed, suspected to be frost on the ground".

Tang Youren was greatly appreciative, shook his head and hummed, and was about to recite another poem to meet the occasion, when a huge crisp sound suddenly came from the northwest, Tang Youren's head shattered in response, and the hand that had just been raised halfway was stunned, and his headless body slammed into Seto Yasan's arms.

Several spies next to the car shouted, rushed up and threw down Seto Yazo, who was full of brains and bones, and was already scared like a wooden chicken, and the spy captain who hugged Seto Yasan kicked violently, kicking Tang Youren's weird body three meters away, holding Seto Yasan, rolling and hiding behind the flower bed, hurriedly wiping Seto Yazo's face, calling repeatedly, seeing Seto Yasan open his mouth, shaking his head in pain, and then raising his hand and swinging, then he let go.

Sirens, exclamations, and footsteps came in bursts, and the special service captain helped Seto Yazo, looked up at Tang Youren, who had lost his head, and found that Tang Youren's right leg was still frequent, and the white hand that was raised was still held stiffly, and several fingers trembled rhythmically.

The special agent captain suddenly had his hair standing on end, and a chill penetrated through the back of his head from his spine, and he felt a twitching tremor in his hand, and quickly turned his head, and found that Seto Yasanyuan opened his eyes and stared at Tang Youren's corpse, his open mouth had been deformed, and Tang Youren's brains and blood were still left on his frightened face, and his cheek muscles trembled, obviously he was so frightened that he was delirious, and the whole person was on the verge of collapse.

......

At eleven o'clock in the evening, in the study room of the "rest house" of the Central Military Academy in Nanjing, Chiang Kai-shek sat down warmly holding the hand of his beloved wife Song Meiling, looking at the bright candlelight on the elegant silver candlestick, talking in a low voice, and recalling the interesting stories of the last Christmas party.

Just as he was talking about the happy place, the voice of Wang Shihe, the chief of the guard, came from outside the study: "Principal, Dai Yunong has an urgent report." ”

Chiang Kai-shek was slightly startled, frowned helplessly, and apologized to his wife.

Song Meiling stood up very generously and helped Chiang Kai-shek to the desk: "It's okay, there is time, let's see Yunong first, there is no urgency, he will not come to disturb us at this time." ”

Chiang Kai-shek happily patted Song Meiling's hand and nodded outside the door.

Wang Shihe left quietly, and in less than a minute, Dai Li's footsteps came. After Dai Li's report was finished, he glanced at Song Meiling and smiled apologetically, Chiang Kai-shek saw that Dai Li's speech was speechless, and knocked on the table impatiently: "Yunong, if you have anything to say, there are no outsiders here." ”

Dai Li hurriedly said yes, but still said with some hesitation: "Principal ......., the matter reported by the students is too much...... It's too bloody, and I'm afraid it will disturb Madame. ”

Song Meiling smiled faintly: "What can disturb me?" Say it, rain farmer, it's okay. ”

Dai Li had no choice but to obey his fate: "An urgent secret report was sent from Shanghai Station that Tang Youren, Vice Minister of Foreign Affairs, was assassinated at the door of his villa in the Japanese Concession, was shot in the head, and was killed on the spot. The statement on the secret telegram was shocking, saying that Vice Minister Tang's entire head had been shattered by a high-powered bullet, and the Shanghai station speculated that the assassin who managed to escape must have used a large-caliber sniper rifle newly developed by Germany or the United States, otherwise it would not have been able to cause such a blow effect......"

"Ahh Wait a minute...... Is the information exact? ”

Chiang Kai-shek stood up in surprise.

Dai Li nodded: "Exactly, it is estimated that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs will soon receive a request for *** and assistance in investigation, and I am afraid that this matter has spread throughout Shanghai, Mayor Wu and they have to be busy." ”

Chiang Kai-shek sat down again, quietly held Song Meiling's slightly trembling hand, looked at Dai Li, and asked in a low voice, "What is your opinion?" ”

Dai Li hesitated for a moment, took half a step forward, and replied in a low voice: "The students are going over and over again, it will not be Commander Gu's military police intelligence department, nor our Military Command Bureau, let alone Director Xu's Party Department Secret Service Section, because our departments have not yet had any evidence of Vice Chief Tang's collaboration with the enemy, and the next morning after Vice Minister Tang said goodbye, his secretary asked the secretariat of the conference for him to ask for sick leave, although we have doubts about this, but due to the large number of affairs and limited manpower, no investigation was launched, so, It is definitely not the work of our government and military intelligence.

"There are only two possibilities left, one is the 'Chinese Youth Anti-Japanese Hoe Troop' that has disappeared for eight months, but the ministry absolutely does not have such advanced weapons, let alone such a strict plan of action and strong and swift action ability, and the remaining one is possible...... The student suspects that it is ......"

"Who is it?"

Chiang Kai-shek also seemed to think of who it was, but in his excitement, the words of inquiry blurted out.

Dai Li replied stubbornly: "Senior Brother An! ”

Song Meiling covered her mouth in surprise: "Oh my God! It can't be Xiao Yi, right? He...... He has been hiding in the nest of southern Sichuan, during this period of time to dismantle the army and reorganize the government of southern Sichuan, he was so busy that he couldn't take care of eating, and slept less than four hours a day, Yun'er sighed every time he corresponded with me, how could An Yi have this energy? ”

Chiang Kai-shek let out a sigh, leaned back in his chair and explained in a low voice: "There is no one else but him, and Madame probably doesn't know that An Yi also controls the secret intelligence agencies in North China and Northeast China, and there are indications that An Yi handed over to Yunong is only an intelligence investigation agency, and the special task force is still under his control."

"Over the past year, the traitor leaders in Northeast China and North China have repeatedly lost their lives, making the traitor lackeys of the first people scattered, like a frightened bird, and now there is no protection of the first person, those big traitors dare not show their faces in public, and the first person is angry for this, and a large number of spies and traitors are mobilized to carry out investigations, and there is still no achievement.

"We speculate that these actions are likely to be ordered by An Yi, or the result of the fighting between the anti-Japanese organization in the north that An Yi has been secretly supporting and the *** intelligence agency, the degree of secrecy is so high, the methods are so spicy and secretive, it is shocking, even the two departments of Yunong and Zu Yan can only sigh.

"Therefore, Yu Nong's suspicion is very reasonable, and there is the high-powered sniper rifle just mentioned, I am afraid that only An Yi can get it from the Germans or Americans in the whole of China, plus the Fourth Department of the General Staff Headquarters once assisted Yu Nong Association in investigating Tang Youren, with An Yi's jealousy and hatred, he will not show mercy to this kind of person."

Song Meiling was worried: "I'm afraid that *** people can also be detected quickly, and with the scoundrel domineering that *** people have always acted in, we are in trouble now." ”

Chiang Kai-shek waved his hand: "It's okay, we will issue a statement of condemnation early tomorrow morning, and let the Government Council come forward and send people to Shanghai to mourn, no matter how people shout, there is no evidence, no matter how they call, it is useless." Although An Yi acted recklessly and disregarded the overall situation, this beautiful action won my heart, and I believe that it will also make countless soldiers and civilians across the country applaud, it seems that An Yi is making an example, I'm afraid Wang Zhaoming won't be able to sleep tonight. ”

Dai Li saw that Chiang Kai-shek had made a decision, his heart was relieved, and he proposed to leave, Chiang Kai-shek stopped him and ordered in a low voice: "In the past two days, you can take some time to go to southern Sichuan to meet An Yi, it doesn't matter if he doesn't admit it, but I want to tell him that I have a lot of headaches for this, let him restrain his subordinates, and don't make any big moves." ”

"Students understand!"

Dai Li hesitated for a moment and asked in a low voice: "Headmaster, Senior Brother An would like to invite you to attend the opening ceremony of the Sichuan-Yunnan Railway on New Year's Day. ”

Chiang Kai-shek thought for a while, nodded and said: "It's okay, you are all very busy during this time, let's go together on New Year's Day, the Sichuan-Yunnan Railway is An Yi's outstanding contribution to the party-state, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is a great achievement, I am going, I am going." When the time comes, I will invite a few deans and Chairman Lin Sen to go with them. At this critical juncture, the country and its people need encouragement. ”

"Darling, I'll also go and take a look, I, the incoming secretary general of the Aviation Committee, also need An Yi to contribute a few new aircraft, bring Zhou Zhirou a few with them, let them visit the Syrian Aircraft Factory, and let An Yi be responsible for all the exchanges, he has an airplane, and it is very convenient to come and go. After giving a New Year's speech in the morning, I left, and when I arrived in Syria, I could still catch up for lunch. Song Meiling suggested with a smile.

Chiang Kai-shek had an idea after a little hesitation: "It's okay, Zhou Zhirou's air force needs to be strengthened urgently, and only An Yi can help at present...... Yunong, from tomorrow to the third day of January, the security work will be in charge of your Military Command Bureau and the chamberlain room security team, understand? ”

"Yes!"
