Chapter 1140: Despicable Borrowing a Knife to Kill
On the afternoon of the day after the joint meeting, Han Lin and Dai Li arrived at Yushan Airport by plane with their attachés; the special service department had the Zhejiang-Jiangxi-Anhui Border Guerrilla Command, and the Military Unification Bureau had the Loyal and Righteous National Salvation Army.
Although Yushan Airport was seriously damaged by the enemy in the Battle of Zhejiang and Jiangxi, but after the enemy retreated, after the efforts of the local garrison and the common people, the runway of the airport was quickly repaired, and large and medium-sized aircraft were certainly unable to take off and land, but they could barely land small propeller aircraft, and the requirements for the runway of this type of model were relatively low.
Han Lin was bold, and Boss Dai was not bold, and the two of them, escorted by the military police, passed through Quzhou from Yushan, arrived in Chun'an County, and interspersed with small roads to Changhua County, where the guerrilla headquarters was stationed.
Zhejiang-Jiangxi-Anhui border guerrilla headquarters station.
"Your courage is really not small, Changhua County is less than 200 kilometers away from Hangzhou City, and you actually set up your headquarters here, if it weren't for the surrounding water network and terrain, once the Japanese army knew about this situation, it would definitely not swallow it." Boss Dai said with a smile.
"The teacher is right, I just occupy the right time, place and people, so I have the confidence to set up the headquarters here, but the headquarters has just moved here, and the conditions are poor and the hospitality is not good, please bear with me more." Han Lin said with a smile.
Dai Li believes that this is an opportunity for cooperation; on the one hand, through Li Shiqun, the intelligence network of the Military Command Bureau in Jiangsu and Shanghai can be rebuilt, and on the other hand, Li Shiqun can be used to achieve some ulterior purposes, such as dealing with the underground party armed forces in southern Jiangsu.
"Boss, I have heard that Director Han has a close relationship with the Americans, and he has received a lot of support privately, and there are two units in the guerrilla command that are all equipped with American weapons.
When Boss Dai heard the secretary's words, his heart was dripping blood, although he was also well-known in the Shancheng government, and with the help of the privileges of the privileged institutions, he brought a lot of weapons to the Loyal National Salvation Army, such as German submachine guns and Mauser pistols, Czech light machine guns, etc., which were stronger than ordinary miscellaneous military firepower.
“。 Most of these officers and men had semi-automatic rifles and automatic rifles, and they also saw a lot of heavy machine guns and mortars, all of which were American-style equipment. Not only weapons and ammunition, but also 200 American-made 10-wheeled trucks, and radio stations are also American. Secretary Pan Qiwu said very shocked.
Indeed, Changhua County relies on the mountains and forests around the Changhua River, and is not very afraid of the actions of the Japanese army, and the special geographical environment, unless the Japanese army wants to mobilize the scale of the wing or above to encircle and suppress, it is asking for hardship, no matter how this account is calculated, it is a loss, and Changhua County has no strategic value.
I've known this for a long time, so why do I need you to say it?
"Now is the critical stage of the war between the Allies and Japan, and it is also the key to our cooperation with the United States, and the situation does not allow us to act openly, so we must try by all means to make use of all opportunities, with the help of the Japanese puppeteers, to strike at the strength of the underground party, and to prepare for the victory of the War of Resistance in the future." Dai Li said.
But if it is compared with Han Lin's U.S. armament unit, it is too far behind, people use U.S. weapons as standard weapons, which is like the Loyal National Salvation Army, a battalion is only equipped with two mortar platoons and four mortars, while Han Lin's U.S. armament unit, a squadron or a company, is equipped with three 60mm mortars and one heavy machine gun, and each squad has light machine guns, how can this compare?
If he had merged Han Lin's Police Department of the Central Military Police Command into the Military Command Bureau, and now all these weapons and equipment supported by the United States are all from the Military Command Bureau, and equipping them with the Loyal and Righteous National Salvation Army will greatly improve their combat effectiveness, how much will his strength increase?
"Have Lu Junhui and Li Shiqun established contact?" Dai Li asked.
"Yesterday, he sent a telegram to the bureau headquarters, saying that he had secretly contacted Li Shiqun in Suzhou, and held talks, and privately signed a cooperation agreement. Pan Qiwu said.
The headquarters was located in an abandoned silk reeling factory in the county seat, and after simple repairs, it was able to shelter from the wind and rain and live in, the conditions were indeed not very good, and new barracks were still being built.
"You inform the headquarters of the Loyal and Righteous National Salvation Army that I have arrived in Changhua County, and at the same time order Ruan Qingyuan to make every effort to collect the traces of the underground party in southern Jiangsu, report to me in time, and tell Lu Junhui that he wants his radio station to be turned on 24 hours a day, and the major matter of exterminating the underground party cannot be delayed." Dai Li said.
"Boss, do you want to inform Director Han of this matter, if our actions work, I am afraid that it will not be easy to get along with him after he knows about it?" Pan Qiwu asked.
"This is a very normal mind, Li Shiqun originally took refuge in the Japanese and the Wang puppet government, the purpose was to gain power and wealth, what loyalty does he have to the Japanese puppet?"
"Not only should we not let him know, but we must also use his intelligence power to help me complete this plan, and the commission told me after the outbreak of the Pacific War that the defeat of the Japanese is a certainty, and this is only a matter of time, and we must adjust the focus in a timely manner, and we must not give the underground party a chance to develop and grow."
Compared with the formation of an army to fight against the Japanese army, the Military Command Bureau did not have resources like Han Lin, and could get the help of the Americans, and weapons, ammunition, vehicles, and military supplies were all given away for nothing.
"There is no need for this, his mind is now focused on fighting the Japanese army, and it is the responsibility of our Military Command Bureau to deal with the underground party, and the special service is a military intelligence department, with different emphasis, and the situation faced by our Military Command Bureau is passive enough, if even such an opportunity is also intervened by him, then in the minds of the commission, he is the main credit, and we have become a foil."
At key locations in the east, west, north, and south directions, squadron-sized troops are stationed in turns to carry out guard duties, also thanks to the large number of tents supported by the US Naval Intelligence Agency. Wherever there is a passable place around, even in the wilderness, a large number of secret posts have been deployed to prevent the Japanese army from sneaking up, and the local people have also been mobilized to raise their vigilance.
The purpose of directing the operation at the front line with Han Lin this time was not to command the loyal and righteous National Salvation Army to fight against the Japanese invaders, but to take advantage of the opportunity of the Japanese army's encirclement and suppression of the guerrillas to lead the Japanese army to the underground party's base in the south of the Yangtze River, and to make a despicable and shameless move of "killing people with a knife"!
Lu Junhui was secretly sent to Suzhou to contact Li Shiqun, and he was keenly aware that after Li Shiqun became the chairman of Suzhou Province, his mentality in Suzhou was completely different from the mentality in Shanghai before, and he was not as hard as before in dealing with the Shancheng government and the underground party, and was busy fighting for power and profit within the Wang puppet government, and the offensive momentum of the secret service headquarters had slowed down significantly.
Compared with the ability to gather intelligence, especially international intelligence and the strategic intelligence of the Japanese army, facts have proven that the Military Control Bureau has lost completely.
How to continue to develop in the Shancheng government and gain the trust of President Chiang, Dai Li believes that there is only one way for the Military Unification Bureau to go, that is, according to President Chiang's intentions, it will go all out against the underground party.
