Chapter 346: The Power of the Burma Station
Qin Wei arrived in Yangon almost alone, and although his status was not low, the British colonial authorities in Burma tried to make an appearance of not taking him seriously, and gave him as little treatment as possible. This makes for a lot less security measures.
Zheng Pingru had protested this in her capacity as Qin Wei's adjutant, but the British replied haughtily, believing that no one in the British Empire would dare to assassinate their guests. Although this guest doesn't seem to be very important.
Zheng Pingru told Qin Wei everything about the matter, and Qin Wei was helpless. He just came to Yangon in a private capacity to "play" for himself, and people are willing to pay attention to themselves, which is other people's business, and if they don't want to pay attention to themselves, it is also other people's freedom. Moreover, the reason for the British is indeed very strong: assassination in the territory of an unrelated third country is prohibited by the international community. This is like the time when Wang Jingwei defected to Hanoi, Dai Li sent Chen Gongshu, one of his four major killers, to assassinate him. As a result, although Chen Gongshu failed to kill Wang Jingwei, the assassination operation organized by him killed Wang Jingwei's secretary. This incident caused an international uproar and made the Nationalist Government quite reprehensible.
But just like Qin Wei said to Shen Zui, he was very timid. During this war years, he took great care of his own life...... Therefore, as soon as possible, he urgently transferred a group of elite agents from within the military command through Dai Li to protect himself, and before these agents arrived, he used the manpower of the Burma station to escort him.
As a result, this surprised Shen Zui.
Even Mao Renfeng only knows that there are only three or five people at the Myanmar Station, and they are already the third person in the military command, but how can the actual situation be so different from their cognition?
The number of people in Myanmar is as high as dozens!
Of course, this is not a big deal. But just like the military commander's investigation and investigation in Chongqing, almost every one of these dozens of regular agents of the military commander of the Burma station has some people attached to him. Some even have as many as two or three hundred.
The actual number of people in Myanmar has already exceeded 1,000!
And that's still just the appearance. Anchoring and anchoring, the manpower that the Myanmar station can control far exceeds this number. What Shen Zui didn't expect the most was that the military command of the Burma station had successfully broken into the Communist Party of Myanmar and controlled a lot of power within the Communist Party...... In other words, if these are also counted, the actual manpower that can be deployed at the Myanmar station has already exceeded 10,000.
This is a station in Myanmar with only three or five people, not even a remote area?
This is not changed even if he is a director of general affairs.
And this is one of the reasons why why Shen was able to easily probe the internal situation of the Communist Party of Burma soon after following Qin Wei to Yangon. He only needs to integrate the affairs of the Burma station to discover a huge underground intelligence network. Although this network has only been built for a short time, it can already do a lot of things. Especially for the Communist Party of Burma, which has only been in existence for a few years and has little real support, this intelligence network is nothing short of a behemoth.
In the beginning. Shen Zui thought that Qin Wei had already begun to secretly develop overseas power, and after hesitating for a while, he still secretly reported the situation to Dai Li, but the result surprised him again: Dai Li not only knew the actual situation of the Myanmar Station in Ludao, but also told him. The same thing is happening in Vietnam. In other words, at this time, many people at the Hanoi station of the military command had already penetrated into the Communist Party of Vietnam...... There were even some Vietnamese communist guerrillas or something. It is the people in the military command who secretly control and even directly lead.
Dai Li instructed Shen to keep it secret. and expressed his sincere satisfaction with his behavior. But I still warned him not to make a small report in the future. Because he didn't know if Qin Wei would know about these things, and what kind of reaction Qin Wei would have if he knew about them.
In a word: work hard under Chief Qin, don't think nonsense...... You just need to secretly remember that you also have a Dai boss.
Boss Dai's comfort made Shen Zui feel a lot more at ease, but it also made him feel a lot more guilty about Qin Wei...... Obviously, Chief Qin was really good to him. He was helping him plan everything early on, but he was so half-hearted...... He had already made up his mind that he must protect Chief Qin's safety in this operation, and even a single hair could not hurt anyone. But the development of events once again left him with nothing to say: catch the coming Japanese. The development of Myanmar station will enter the fast lane...... Doesn't that mean that Qin Wei actually has a clear idea of the plans and goals of the Japanese, and he is going to touch the light of Chief Qin again?

"Ardennes?"
Dorman. Smith, the governor of British Burma, Qin Wei came to Yangon but did not see him, but wanted to meet Mountbatten who came all the way from Calcutta, which made him unhappy for a while. If it weren't for the fact that Qin Wei contacted many Chinese to invest in Myanmar, and the filial piety he was given during this period, he probably wouldn't even approve Qin Wei's request to come to Myanmar. But even so, he deliberately said a few more words in front of Mountbatten, and used another way to "force" Mountbatten to temporarily give up meeting with Qin Wei. But in the past five days, Qin Wei didn't react, as if he was really just here for a vacation, which made him and Mountbatten a little unable to sit still. The two decided to "meet" Qin Wei, but unexpectedly, Colli, who was sent to invite someone, only brought back a geographical term.
"What's that?" Although Dorman was British, he did not know much about the geography of France. This is just like many Chinese do not know which country the mountain is in.
"Whatever it is, I think we'd better send this thing to London and get London to write back to us." Ke Erli said in a deep voice, "Because Qin Wei is very confident. I can see it! He only gave us two hours, and after two hours, if we hadn't appeared in front of him and bowed our heads, then...... The consequences may be as severe as he suggests. ”
"But I think that guy is bluffing." Dorman said disdainfully, "How can a Chinese who have not yet dealt with the affairs of their own country have the leisure to care about others?" ”
"But Qin Wei said that this matter is a matter of life and death for hundreds of thousands of British and French troops." Collie snapped, "That guy wouldn't joke about that. It's like he didn't joke about Indonesia's oil fields! It's about his credibility! I think we have to escalate this to London! ”
"Lord, it's you who Qin Wei wants to see, you can decide." Dorman was unhappy with Collie's attitude, but considering the many investments he had made in Burma and the benefits they could bring, he had to put down his grievances and turn to Mountbatten instead.
"Ardennes, I remember that our allied forces with France are indeed ......" Mountbatten's face was already a little pale, and the future commander-in-chief of the Allied forces in Southeast Asia suddenly jumped up and pointed to the butler standing next to him: "Send a telegram immediately to the colonies...... No, ask the Admiralty and ask them about the situation on the Dutch front. God, hope that the Chinese is just talking nonsense. ”
"I hope so." Collie closed his eyes for a moment, "I hope that, as you say, the Germans' armored clusters did not pass there, otherwise, my Excellency the Governor, you would pay a great price for your snubbing today!" ”
"What the hell are you talking about?" Dorman also felt the seriousness of the matter, but he still didn't quite understand: "What Ardennes?" What Germans? What's going on? ”
"If the Germans pass through the Ardennes, then the hundreds of thousands of Anglo-French troops we have in support of the Dutch will be cut off! This means that they will be driven out to sea by the armored clusters of the Germans! Mountbatten shouted: "My God, I'm sure, we've all been fooled!" Fooled! Only that Chinese guessed the result. But that bastard, he dragged on for five days, five days! Tell us now! ”
"Your Excellency the Governor, it's not Qin Wei who dragged us for five days, it's us who dragged him for five days!" Seeing Mountbatten's performance, Curley's heart sank, "It was our arrogance that we missed this opportunity. ”
"No, it's Chinese. It's that Chinese! Dorman finally understood the cause and effect, and he cried out in panic, "It's that Chinese who is deliberately delaying time!" This has nothing to do with us......"
"But the people of the whole Myanmar know that it was we who put Qin Wei on the beach and blown the sea breeze for almost a week!" Curley shouted. He understood why Dorman and Mountbatten were so scared...... As Qin Wei said, if the Germans had crossed the Ardennes and completed the encirclement of the Anglo-French forces, then the two people who could have obtained this information in advance would have been severely punished from London. Although this war may have nothing to do with them, the survival of hundreds of thousands of British and French troops will definitely be angry. Obviously, it can be avoided in advance, but the last one planted a super big heel, not to mention a side branch of the royal family, even the king of England himself may have to abdicate the throne when he encounters this matter. He is different, he is now a businessman, not a member of the government, and he can't find his head in London if he wants to find someone to vent his anger.
"Stop sending now, stop now!" Dorman suddenly chased after Mountbatten's butler, who had already walked outside the door, "You can't let London know the situation on this side of the road, absolutely not!" ”
"No way!" Mountbatten and Curley stopped him at the same time, "This must be told to London, and immediately!" ”
"But if it had happened, London would not have spared us." Dorman shouted.
"If that's the case, I'll kill that guy!" Mountbatten hated.
"You can't kill him!" Collie gave the guy a blank look, "Just like you did to him this time!" If you dare to use unconventional means against him, then I can guarantee that you will be even worse! (To be continued......)
