Hearing Zhang Lingfu tell him about this, Wang Haitao was secretly taken aback in his heart, but his face did not change, and he still looked at Zhang Lingfu calmly. Zhang Lingfu couldn't see the nervousness in Wang Haitao's heart, he only looked at Wang Haitao's calm face, and he was also thinking in his heart that fortunately he was not moved by the people in Chongqing.

After thinking so much for a moment, Zhang Lingfu was eager to confess himself in front of Wang Haitao, Zhang Lingfu hurriedly said: "Junzao, I really don't know what Chongqing wants to deal with you, so I just refused the people sent by Chongqing. ”

Wang Haitao sighed and said: "Lingfu, you have followed me since the Battle of Songhu, and it has been several years now, and you were the lieutenant colonel when you followed me. Now that you have such a good opportunity to be promoted, and you are a person sent from the Central Army, why would you categorically refuse the Chongqing side?"

Wang Haitao's words made Zhang Lingfu think a lot, seeing that Zhang Lingfu was pondering, Wang Haitao did not urge him, and the office was quiet. Zhang Lingfu sat there and bowed his head and thought: "What can the division commander of the Central Army do? At present, a division of the Central Army is afraid that it will not be able to defeat even a wing of the Japanese army, and although he is now a brigade commander, this is the brigade commander of the 90th Division, and the 90th Division is a unit that started from a military seat! Just look at his own brigade, that soldier, and that weapon, and he can resist a brigade and regiment of the Japanese army. Besides, the military seat has never regarded himself as an outsider, and there are people in the brigade who started with the military seat, but they let themselves be the brigade commander. How can you ignore the grace of knowing it?"

After thinking about it, Zhang Lingfu raised his head and said to Wang Haitao: "Junzao, I have never complained about you! When I first defected to the 90th Army, I was just a person who treated crimes, but Junzao never looked down on me Zhang Lingfu, and treated me even more like a confidant. If I don't think about reciprocating the kindness of the military seat, but betray the military seat because of the small profit of the rope head, then am I still human? I can't do this kind of villain behavior, and I don't care about it, and I don't care about it. ”

After listening to Zhang Lingfu, Wang Haitao said with a smile: "Okay! Lingfu, I really didn't misunderstand you." You are a real man, this is for your words today, you are my brother in life and death Wang Haitao. Don't worry, follow my brothers Wang Haitao to kill the enemy, I can't treat them badly. You take your troops with peace of mind first, little Japan should not have much to jump on, and now what our brothers have to do is to work together to defeat little Japan and drive all little Japan out of China. ”

After sending Zhang Lingfu away, Wang Haitao calmed down for a long time, and secretly thought to himself: "I am still too careless, I didn't expect Lao Jiang to play such a hand, fortunately Zhang Lingfu is a person who knows how to repay his kindness, otherwise it is really possible for Lao Jiang to succeed." However, the old brothers of the 272nd Brigade believed it themselves, even if Zhang Lingfu threw himself into Lao Jiang, I am afraid that he would not be able to pull away a few people. The loss will not be big, but the face will be a big loss. ”

Thinking of this, Wang Haitao brought Tang Renli over again. After Tang Renli came to the office, Wang Haitao told Tang Renli about Zhang Lingfu in detail, and told Tang Renli to do a good job of preventing spies and spies. But as soon as Wang Haitao finished speaking, he saw Tang Renli's face was embarrassed, so he asked, "Renli, why is there any difficulty in this matter?"

Tang Renli replied: "Junzuo, I am now the head of the logistics department, and the logistics of the entire army of 100,000 people are pressed on me, if you let me take care of this matter, I really can't manage it, and this matter is very important, don't be careless, if I don't go all out, I will regret it if there is a loophole." It's better for you to find another one to take care of this matter. ”

Wang Haitao thought about it carefully, Tang Renli was right, so he asked: "Okay, then Renli, who do you think is suitable for this?" Tang Renli thought for a while and replied: "Junzao, those who can do this must be trustworthy people, and they must also be able to master the skills of counter-espionage." In this way, it seems that the people of the reconnaissance brigade are the most suitable, and does the military seat look for such a person in the reconnaissance brigade?"

Tang Renli's words woke up the people in their dreams, and he himself had taught some anti-espionage skills when he was training the reconnaissance brigade, but they had not been systematized, and now he has selected some people from the reconnaissance brigade and systematically compiled teaching materials for training, so that he will not have his own spy organization? As for the teaching materials, it is not in vain that he has watched so many spy war films before the crossing.

Thinking of this, Wang Haitao nodded and said to Tang Renli: "Renli, what you said is completely correct, but I didn't think it through. In this way, you go and find Tang Xiaoshan for me. Tang Renli answered and went out. After a while, Tang Xiaoshan came to Wang Haitao's office. Tang Xiaoshan saluted and asked, "Junzuo, do you have any mission to come to me?"

Wang Haitao first asked Tang Xiaoshan to sit down, and then said: "Xiaoshan, now that Lao Jiang and Little Japan are thinking about dealing with our Ninety Army, it is not surprising that some spies and spies are sent to our Longzhou City. I want to set up an intelligence agency not only to eliminate spies and spies around me, but also to plant spies around them. I'm going to draw people from your reconnaissance brigade to form this intelligence agency, who do you think is suitable to form this intelligence agency?"

Tang Xiaoshan did not answer Wang Haitao's question at once, but first silently digested Wang Haitao's words, and then thought about the right person. After a long while, Tang Xiaoshan said to Wang Haitao solemnly: "Military seat, I have been thinking about it for a long time, and I think that Tang Fan, the deputy commander of a regiment and a battalion, is more suitable. Tang Fan's name Wang Haitao is relatively unfamiliar, and he can't remember his appearance, but Tang Xiaoshan must have a reason for recommending this person so solemnly, so Wang Haitao asked curiously: "Xiaoshan, what is your reason for recommending Tang Fan?"

Tang Xiaoshan replied: "Report to the military seat, first, Tang Fan is the cousin of Long Zai, and it can also be said to be the brother-in-law of the military seat, although it is a little far away, but he must compete for his own people." Second, Tang Fan joined the unit when the independent brigade was established, and because of his hard training and excellent individual skills, he was selected by me to join the reconnaissance regiment. In the reconnaissance regiment, he was also one of the hardest trained, ranking among the top few in the brigade in terms of individual skills and reconnaissance methods. Third, Tang Fan is a person who is willing to use his brain and loves to use his brain, and he can come up with a way to complete the task no matter how difficult it is. He made several great contributions in the Vietnam campaign, and I just submitted an application to the military department to ask for merit for him. ”

Tang Xiaoshan said this and looked at Wang Haitao, Wang Haitao thought for a while and said: "Xiaoshan, do you know what is the most important thing after being in charge of the intelligence agency? That is, loyalty! Once Tang Fan is in charge of the intelligence agency, he can only be loyal to me alone, can he do it?" Tang Xiaoshan was stunned for a moment and then replied: "Junzuo, how can you say that he is also a member of the Tang family, and he will definitely not betray the Tang family, I have believed him." ”

When Wang Haitao saw Tang Xiaoshan say this, he said: "Okay, you bring him here to see me tomorrow morning, don't talk to him about this matter first, and talk about it when we meet." Tang Xiaoshan agreed and left. In the evening, Wang Haitao returned home, and after dinner, he took Donald into the study. Seeing that Wang Haitao was so solemn, Tang Lao pulled himself into the study alone, knowing that Wang Haitao had something to discuss with him.

In the study, after the two sat down, Wang Haitao asked Tang Lao with a serious face: "Father-in-law, do you have an impression of Tang Fan?" Although Tang Lao was surprised that Wang Haitao would suddenly ask about Tang Fan's situation today, but seeing Wang Haitao's serious face, he also understood that Wang Haitao must have some reason to ask this, so he thought carefully for a while and replied: "There is an impression, he is the youngest son of my cousin who has not come out of five suits, two years younger than Long Zai, and is Long Zai's cousin." ”

Wang Haitao nodded, and asked again: "What does my father-in-law think of this person's temperament?" Tang Lao was even more puzzled, but still replied: "The virtuous son-in-law knows that my Tang family moved to the Evil Tiger Mountain outside Longzhou City from other places, and because he wanted to protect himself, he set up a team in the Evil Tiger Mountain. The reason for the relocation is because my Tang family offended the people of the government in my hometown. Tang Fan's father, who is my cousin, died at the hands of the government. Tang Fan's elder brother was also chased by the government and died under the guns of the rebels, and Tang Fan was only six years old that year. Speaking of this, Donald was immersed in the past, and his eyes were a little moist.

Wang Haitao sat there and listened quietly, Tang Lao calmed down for a moment and then said: "After that, Tang Fan was raised by our brothers in turn, this child suffers a lot, and matures early, he can learn to do things with adults at the age of twelve or thirteen, he is a sensible child! I heard that he has always performed well in your army." When I came back to see me, I was already a major and deputy battalion commander. What's wrong with Tang Fan?"

Wang Haitao replied: "Nothing happened, but I have an important matter, which needs an absolutely loyal person to do, Tang Xiaoshan recommended Tang Fan, does his father-in-law think he is suitable?" Tang Lao thought for a while and replied: "Virtuous son-in-law, I dare not guarantee that Tang Fan is suitable for anything else, but I dare to vouch for him for loyalty! This child has grown up under my watch, and I know best what kind of heart he is." ”

Hearing this, Wang Haitao's heart also had an impression of Tang Fan, so Wang Haitao said goodbye to Tang Lao and returned to the bedroom. Feng Gu naturally waited for Wang Haitao in the bedroom, and when Feng Gu asked Wang Haitao what was the matter with Tang Lao, Wang Haitao told Feng Gu about asking Tang Lao about Tang Fan's temperament and preparing to let Tang Fan do an important thing for himself. Unexpectedly, Aunt Feng also said that Tang Fan was a good brother and treated herself as a sister, the reason was that Aunt Feng would often take care of him.

The next morning, Tang Xiaoshan took Tang Fan to Wang Haitao's office. After Tang Fan saluted Wang Haitao, Wang Haitao looked at Tang Fan carefully. Tang Fan looks older than Long Zai, he can look like he is in his thirties, his appearance is not good, he is a bit similar to Long Zai, but it is also the kind of appearance that will not be conspicuous in the crowd. Wang Haitao nodded with satisfaction, and asked directly: "Tang Fan, I have an important task, and I need a person who is absolutely loyal to me and the Ninety Army to do, this task is very dangerous, do you dare to take it?"
