Han Lin also knew that although he had cooperated with the US intelligence department for several years, he had gradually created the image of a core figure in an international intelligence organization, an expert on international issues and Japanese issues, and had been highly valued for the timeliness and accuracy of his intelligence, but when it came to such important strategic intelligence, so many experts and experts in the US intelligence department would not easily believe his news.

This is strategic intelligence that involves the war in Europe as a whole and the strategic intelligence that involves the full-scale outbreak of World War II, and it is a huge impact on all countries in the world, and it is normal not to believe it.

"The Pandora's box of World War II has been opened, and although the United States pursues isolationism, the change of the situation, if not based on the wishes of you Americans, will sooner or later be drawn into the flames of war, and from now on, we must actively prepare for war." Han Lin said.

"You're right, the U.S. government has long taken this situation into account, and although we can't participate in the war head-on because of the ideas of the congressmen, the necessary preparations have already begun."

"I received instructions from the Naval Intelligence Directorate to entrust you to continue to pay attention to the war in Europe, and then the progress of relations between Japan and Germany, Japan and the Soviet Union, the funding aspect is definitely not a problem, this commission is not just the Naval Intelligence Bureau." Smith said.

"I think it is very wise for the US government to pay attention to the huge threat that Japan may pose to the United States, and it is still a little early to talk about the conflict of interests between Japan and the United States, but you should pay attention to the fact that the Yamashiro government, or the Chinese battlefield, has dragged down most of Japan's army, created a war quagmire, and limited Japan's combat capability and potential, which is a favorable condition for the United States."

"I don't feel pain when the board hits others, the US policy is bound to be Europe first and then Asia, I don't expect the US side to give much aid in weapons and equipment, but the US government should give due consideration to providing economic assistance to the Shancheng government, even if it is to give some loans."

"I need an update on whether the U.S. government is willing to lend money to the Shancheng government, and when I return to Shancheng, as one of my main jobs in Shanghai, after all, I am still a diplomat in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs." Han Lin said.

During the Anti-Japanese War, the United States gave the Yamashiro government five mortgages, using minerals and tung oil as collateral, and set a threshold that it must purchase American goods, not arms, and the last one was a financial aid loan after the outbreak of the Pacific War, and there was no threshold.

Han Lin remembered very well that there would be two loans next year, which were also taken in consideration of the Soviet Union's strong assistance to the Shancheng government and the fear that the Shancheng government would fall to the Soviet Union.

At this time, don't consider the impure motives of the U.S. government, and don't consider the various restrictions of the other side, at least it can alleviate some of the financial pressure on the Yamashiro government, but it is difficult to say how much the Yamashiro government can use for the cause of the anti-Japanese war.

"I have also heard about this, before you leave, I will give you an accurate answer, you have been of great help to the intelligence department, and you have also made great contributions to the United States, which of course requires us to actively implement it." Smith said.

Just when the scandal of the "congress" of the Wang puppet government was about to be staged in Shanghai, the scandal of the secret service of the Shancheng government was first detonated.

Seeing that on 27 August, the time for the Japanese army to launch an offensive was getting closer and closer, and the Ninth Theater Command entered an intense stage of preparation, and the initial operational plan and deployment began to be distributed to the field troops and garrison headquarters for implementation.

Against this background, the Japanese spies in Tanzhou City also began to carry out frequent activities, eager to grasp the deployment of the Ninth War Zone.

"Section chief, the Japanese spy and the inner line have completed the joint, and they have been separated, are we catching the inner line or the Japanese spy?" The field agent of the intelligence department of the Hunan Provincial Station asked.

The Japanese spy, who pretended to be the owner of the tea shop, called a rickshaw and was about to return to the tea shop. The people who connected with him also left in a hurry. The inspectors followed from a distance, some on foot and some on foreign bikes.

"Idiot, let's split into two ways, follow the Japanese spy all the way, since the connection, there must be an intelligence transaction, find a secluded place to arrest, drive with me all the way to destroy the Japanese spy stronghold, catch the Japanese spy, and get the leaked information, isn't this a good way to have both fish and bear's paws?" Wang Ronggui, the head of the intelligence section, glared at him.

"The section chief is resourceful, and his subordinates are ashamed!" The subordinate slapped a little sycophant.

"I'm better at shooting than you on the back, it's the key to hurry up and act, pay attention when you catch Japanese spies, you can't let him have time to destroy intelligence, and you can't let him commit suicide." Wang Ronggui said.

"The people from the inspection department must stop it, what should we do?" The subordinate asked.

"Just one person follows, can't you two take it down? If he stops him, he will reveal his identity, and the Military Command Bureau will arrest the Japanese spies, and the inspection department will have no power to interfere. Wang Ronggui said.

Of course, the speed of driving the car was fast, and he led six people, stopped the car next to the tea shop, and went in first to ask for the price of two pretending to be customers and men, and then went in with another one.

"Section chief, the people from the inspection department are here!" A subordinate said.

Wang Ronggui turned his head and saw that two young men in coats and trousers, pretending to be ordinary people, were trotting over.

"Regardless of them, you two go in and arrest people, and Xiao Shang and I will stay to deal with them." Wang Ronggui said very calmly.

Two more entered the tea shop.

"Are you the Central Bureau of Unified Affairs or the Military Unified Bureau? This is the Japanese spy den monitored by the inspection department of the garrison headquarters, please withdraw immediately, don't take action to startle the snake, you can't afford the consequences! The young man on the left said solemnly, his voice very low.

"The Hunan Provincial Station of the Military Command Bureau handles the case, and your inspection department has no right to intervene, besides, this is the Japanese spy base that our Hunan Provincial Station has been monitoring, when did it become the exclusive responsibility of the inspection department? ! Go aside, or don't blame me for being rude to you! Wang Ronggui said with a sneer.

"Nonsense, this is originally a case that our inspection department has long mastered, everything has a first come, first come, first come, your Military Command Bureau is trying to grab credit, something happens, I'm afraid you can't hold in your pants!" The inspectors were not in the least afraid of the Military Administration.

"Feel free to complain, if you obstruct the actions of the Military Control Bureau, you will bear the consequences!" Wang Ronggui turned around and left.

In the tea shop, the two guys on the first floor seemed to be too busy, so they shouted to the second floor, sounding like they were going to call the proprietress to come down to help, but the military commanders didn't pay attention, and there was a trace of nervousness in their eyes at the moment.

The two fellows are also Japanese spies, and they can see that the situation in front of them is dangerous!

As two more people came to the door of the tea shop, this was the signal of action, and the arrest officially began.

The two guys faced the three of them who suddenly burst out, well-trained military agents, and they were covered with their mouths and locked in their throats without resistance, although they struggled desperately, they didn't have any effect, and with the cooperation of the five people, they were trapped hand and foot, and their mouths were stuffed with rags.

"Rush to the second floor and grab the boss lady for me, she may be a newspaper operator, you must get the code book in your hands!" Wang Ronggui ignored the two inspectors chasing behind him, walked in and said in a low voice.

The four spies tiptoed up the stairs to the second floor, and suddenly smelled a smell of burning in their noses, and immediately rushed to the closed door like crazy, and kicked the door open, and saw a woman squatting on the ground, in front of the porcelain basin, it seemed that the code book was burning, and they rushed over to the woman, not paying attention to the two grenades behind the door, which were emitting white smoke.

A few seconds later, there were two loud bangs!

In an instant, the mountains shook, and a large piece of the floor above the head was blown down, and sawdust flew everywhere.

Seeing that the floor slab above his head collapsed, this was an old wooden building, and it couldn't withstand the power of two grenade explosions, and the people on the first floor immediately ran out of the door.
