Chapter 814: Great Disapproval (asking for double monthly votes)
Cheng Qianfan made a gesture to signal Sheng Shuyu not to say anything.
Turn around, walk to the door, and open the door.
“Brother Fan.” Hao Zai came over.
“Be alert.” Cheng Qianfan said calmly.
"Yes!" Hao Zai nodded, his heart tightening. The team leader once again told him to be more vigilant, which must mean something happened, so be extra careful.
Cheng Qianfan returned to the room and saw Sheng Shuyu staring at him.
"You know what I'm capable of, I'm sure no one is following me." Sheng Shuyu said.
“Of course I believe it.” Cheng Qianfan nodded, “But for safety’s sake, it’s better to be careful.”
Sheng Shuyu took a deep look at Cheng Qianfan and said nothing more. He could understand that Cheng Qianfan, in their line of work, only believed in himself.
However, understanding is still not comfortable.
“The contact between Chongqing and the first column of the Loyalty and Salvation Army was interrupted.” Sheng Shuyu said.
“The first column?” Cheng Qianfan thought, “Why build a general’s headquarters?”
"Exactly." Sheng Shuyu nodded, "The headquarters ordered the Shanghai Station to send someone to contact us, but there was no news from the traffic officer sent out."
“Why is Brother Sheng in Shanghai at this time?” Cheng Qianfan glanced at Sheng Shuyu, smiled, and asked seemingly casually.
“Pelvis.” Sheng Shuyu did not answer Cheng Qianfan’s question, but said one word.
“What?” Cheng Qianfan asked.
"Pelican's pelican." Sheng Shuyu looked a little unhappy and glared at Cheng Qianfan, "The director is indeed right, you are a suspicious guy."
"It's the director who knows me." Cheng Qianfan smiled faintly. Pelican's name was the secret message between him and Dai Chunfeng. It was a secret that only he and Dai Chunfeng knew. The fact that Sheng Shuyu could tell this secret was enough to show that Sheng Shuyu was No problem.
This is not to blame for his temptation. It is really because Sheng Shuyu came too suddenly and strangely.
…
"The bureau sent me to Shanghai on business, and it coincides with the meeting." Sheng Shuyu then explained, "I have called the Chongqing bureau about this matter, and the bureau asked me to come to see you immediately."
Cheng Qianfan nodded. If he calls Chongqing, he can send a report at any time. There are staff on duty 24 hours a day. However, if Chongqing takes the initiative to send a message to this side, there will be Scheduled time.
According to the agreed time, Zhou Ru would not turn on the radio to receive calls from Chongqing until early tomorrow morning. Therefore, when Sheng Shuyu could not wait any longer, Dai Chunfeng urgently informed Sheng Shuyu of the secret code with the word "Pulse" in order to get the letter and ask him to come for an urgent meeting.
“Has the Shanghai Station sent someone to contact the Ministry again?” Cheng Qianfan asked in a deep voice.
"Sent." Sheng Shuyu nodded, "Wang Tiemu sent his capable general Lu Xingge and a few brothers to contact Deputy Commander He, but there was still no news."
Brother!
Cheng Qianfan's heart sank, "How many days have Lu Xingge and his party been there?"
“Four days.” Sheng Shuyu said, “If there is no unexpected situation, there should be news coming by now. It’s a pity that so far there is not even a word.”
"Something must have happened." Cheng Qianfan suppressed the worry in his heart and said in a deep voice, "With Lu Xingge's ability, unless he encounters big trouble, he will definitely have news back within four days."
“Brother Cheng seems to be very familiar with this Lu Xingge?” Sheng Shuyu asked tentatively.
"Lu Xingge is my sworn brother." Cheng Qianfan glanced at Sheng Shuyu, "His ability is far better than mine."
Sheng Shuyu nodded, he knew Cheng Qianfan's ability.
Even though he was as conceited as he was, he also admired Cheng Qianfan quite a lot. Cheng Qianfan said that Lu Xingge was far more capable than him. This statement may have the meaning of 'self-effacing and praising his brother', but it also showed that this Lu Xingge Ge has some abilities.
So, as Cheng Qianfan said, the stronger Lu Xingge's ability is, the more bad the situation is.
…
"I will try to find out about the situation in He Department." Cheng Qianfan said in a deep voice, "However, I'm afraid we have to be mentally prepared for the worse."
Sheng Shuyu also nodded with a serious expression.
He Xingjian's first column of the Loyalty and Salvation Army, with tens of thousands of troops, could not disappear all at once, and there is no news that the Japanese army has recently launched a large-scale attack on the Loyalty and Salvation Army's headquarters. What's more, the scale of He Xingjian's headquarters , the Japanese army wanted to eat it in one bite. Although it was not impossible, it was impossible that the news would not spread.
Hence, He Xingjian’s headquarters lost contact with the Chongqing headquarters, and the most likely reason was that there was an internal problem within the team.
“Brother Cheng, what do you think is the possibility of someone doing something rebellious?” Sheng Shuyu asked with a solemn expression.
Sheng Shuyu was restless.
If He Xianjian's troops really dare to risk the disapproval of the world and surrender to the enemy, he will be the first senior general of the national army to lead his troops to surrender to the enemy since the Anti-Japanese War.
Most importantly, the Loyalty and National Salvation Army is an armed force belonging only to the military commandery. He Xingjian’s move will have a profound negative impact on the military commandery.
In addition, He Xingjian knew too much about military control of Shanghai. If this person defected to the enemy, it would be another devastating blow to the Shanghai Station, which had experienced Ruan Zhiyuan's surrender to the enemy and Zheng Weilong's arrest a year ago.
…
“It’s hard to say.” Cheng Qianfan shook his head.
His mind was rapidly thinking and analyzing the information about He Xingjian.
He Xingjian was not only from Huangpu, but also had a Youth Gang background.
After the Second Battle of Songhu broke out, Dai Chunfeng arrived in Shanghai in person and presided over the establishment of the Jiangsu-Zhejiang Action Committee Task Force.
Five brigades and a special agent brigade were established by borrowing from the Youth Gang and recruiting from the society.
He Xingjian is the captain of the First Brigade, which is mainly composed of members of the Youth Gang.
At the beginning of the establishment of the Rangers, members covered almost all walks of life in Shanghai at that time.
There are dung diggers, factory workers, rickshaw pullers, and progressive young students. There are also many of them, including the most hated three-handers and bastards, and even deceitful gangsters.
As the saying goes, in extraordinary times, everyone, regardless of high or low, will fight for the national crisis together.
Although its members were complex, the Rangers fought bravely against Japan and refused to retreat to the death. Among them, the fighting will of a special brigade controlled by the Red Party was particularly outstanding.
The Rangers were even arranged as backup to cover the large-scale retreat of the national army, resulting in heavy casualties.
After the Battle of Songhu, the Rangers, which suffered heavy losses, moved to fight behind enemy lines and were officially renamed the "Loyalty and National Salvation Army" in January last year.
This is the first and only large-scale armed force under the direct control of the Party Affairs Investigation Office, so it attracts great attention.
Cheng Qianfan had no contact with He Xingjian. However, before Song Fuguo came to Shanghai, Cheng Qianfan had a secret meeting with the old officer. From Song Fuguo, Cheng Qianfan learned some inside information.
As the deputy commander-in-chief of the Loyalty and National Salvation Army, He Xingjian had a tense relationship with the commander-in-chief Yang Hu. Yang Hu even secretly informed Chongqing of He Xingjian’s exclusive power.
…
"Brother Sheng, I am deep in the Shanghai front line. I have never had the honor to serve under Commander He, and I don't know much about some situations." Cheng Qianfan thought for a long time, took the initiative to offer a cigarette to Sheng Shuyu, and asked, "This Commander He... "
“Sir He is quite opinionated,” Sheng Shuyu said, squinting his eyes and smiling.
understood.
Cheng Qianfan nodded with a serious expression, "Brother Sheng, a heavy rain is coming."
Yang Hu secretly informed Dai Chunfeng about He Xingjian's exclusive power, which was not a false accusation.
In fact, He Xingjian has always been dissatisfied with Dai Bureau's reorganization and reorganization of the Loyalty and Salvation Army. In particular, he had repeated conflicts with the personnel sent from Chongqing, and even fought passively and did not obey orders.
If He Xianjian really rebelled against the country and surrendered to the enemy, it would be shocking and incomprehensible, but it is not without clues.
In fact, Dai Chunfeng has been trying to ‘save’ and win over He Xingjian.
Sheng Shuyu, as a close and trusted subordinate of Dai Chunfeng, once personally recorded the telegram dictated by Dai Chunfeng and sent it to He Xingjian.
Sheng Shuyu still remembers this telegram:
“Xiang Jianxiongxunjian:
My brother came to Shaanxi from Chongqing on the 6th and will stay here for about a week.
I received a telegram from Chongqing just a few minutes ago. I am glad to hear that the message has arrived in Shanghai. I am very relieved!
In the Shanghai Incident, all my work in Shanghai has been severely hit; the main reason for the push, the internal and external things, all of which have concentrated the blame of the three brothers.
Therefore, regarding the command and rectification of the Loyalty and National Salvation Army in the future, I will ask my brother to establish a Songhu headquarters in the name of the commander stationed in Shanghai to plan and command.
Brother, please organize a simple and strict headquarters. All personnel can be among the original Shanghai office personnel. Those who can gain a foothold in Shanghai and can travel along the Beijing-Shanghai line are the criteria.
Those who have been exposed in Shanghai should be transferred to the Tunxi headquarters immediately or be dismissed with pay.
Brother!
The success or failure of the Loyalty and National Salvation Army is the success or failure of our entire cause.
Brother is the founding father of our army. This time I go to Shanghai and shoulder a arduous task. I must take various measures to encourage the responsible comrades to always stand on the Three People's Principles of saving the country and the people, adhere to the leader's will, resolutely resist the enemy, and love the people.
For those who were sent to various detachments by the Shanghai Office in the past, if there are any who do not know how to care for themselves and do not know the general situation, they should be investigated immediately and dealt with without any scruples or tolerance.
Di Lingkow. "
"The bureau chief has always had high expectations for Chief He, and he relies heavily on him." Sheng Shuyu sighed and said, "I just hope that Chief He will not make a mistake."
“I need a few suspicious persons.” Cheng Qianfan said.
“Okay.” Sheng Shuyu nodded.
…
"There are many people here, so I took advantage of the chaos during the day to sneak in. Nothing happened for a short time. If I stay for a long time, something will happen." Sheng Shuyu said, "I will leave secretly in the middle of the night..."
Then he saw Cheng Qianfan's happy expression and couldn't help laughing and scolding, "Can't you just pretend to be reluctant?"
"I feel relieved when you leave, and you feel relieved too." Cheng Qianfan said with a smile.
Sheng Shuyu pointed at Cheng Qianfan and finally just smiled without saying anything else.
As Cheng Qianfan said, regardless of the importance of Cheng Qianfan's latent identity or his identity as Sheng Shuyu, it is okay for the two to have brief secret contact, but it must not last too long.
Sheng Shuyu was born in the third year of the Republic of China and is about to turn twenty-five; Cheng Qianfan was born in the fourth year of the Republic of China and is about to turn twenty-four.
Both of them are now Lieutenant Colonels. They are the best among the youngest generation in the Military Command Bureau, and can even be ranked as the pride of the youth.
If anything happens to either of these two people, it will be a huge loss to the military command bureau.
…
The night is already deep.
“Brother Fan, Chief Sheng has left.” Hao Zai came over to report.
Cheng Qianfan nodded slightly, with a calm expression.
“Brother Fan, do you want someone to keep an eye on me?” Hao Zai asked.
"What are you talking about? That's the commander's favorite general." Cheng Qianfan was furious and scolded Haozi.
"Hao Zai only knows that being loyal to the team leader means being loyal to the bureau and the party and the country." Hao Zai said.
"You kid." Cheng Qianfan pointed at Hao Zai and shook his head, "This guy is suspicious by nature, that's all, so that his good intentions won't be misunderstood."
“Yes!” Hao Zai nodded, and at the same time, he remembered that he would use the word ‘protect’ in the future.
“If we continue to inform you, the situation may change drastically. All brothers should be cautious in their words and deeds and be prepared for contingency.” Cheng Qianfan said.
"clear."
…
The next day.
A patrol officer reported to Lu Hu, deputy inspector of the third patrol, that a suspicious person had been found. Datou Lu did not dare to neglect and immediately reported to Chief Xiao Cheng.
In the afternoon.
Cheng Qianfan secretly went to the Hongkou District Super High School and reported to Section Chief Sanbenjilang.
“Search, you are very considerate.” Cheng Qianfan first thanked Sanbonjiro.
Zhima's Full Moon Wine, Sanbonjiro also sent a congratulatory gift in private.
“Miyazaki-kun.” Sanbonjiro said with a smile, “The whole of Shanghai is talking about yesterday’s event.”
"The world doesn't know Cheng Qianfan's true identity. Under such circumstances, Cheng Qianfan can have the power he has today. Everyone in Shanghai regards it as a grand event to befriend Cheng Qianfan. This is precisely because Cheng Qianfan is friendly with the empire." Cheng Qianfan said , "Yesterday's grand events were the result of the long-lasting light of the empire's military fortunes. This subordinate has been blessed with the glory of the empire."
As he spoke, Cheng Qianfan gently placed a beautifully wrapped gift box on the desk.
“Miyazaki-kun, what are you doing?” Sanbonjiro asked in a deep voice.
“Professor, this is a return gift.” Cheng Qianfan said with a smile.
"That being the case, it's okay to be so kind." Sanbonjiro nodded, put the gift box away, and placed it behind the curtain behind the desk.
About the rumors that 'Mr. Little Cheng' held a big banquet, there were many guests, and the gifts received by the Cheng family needed to be stored in a special warehouse. Naturally, Sanbonjiro heard about it and wanted to give Kentaro Miyazaki a beating to stop him from thinking about it all the time. When making money, don't always think about family matters. However, if you think about it carefully, Miyazaki-kun has been lurking in Shanghai for a long time for the sake of the empire. He has worked extremely hard. Now that he is happy with Lin'er, it is human nature to relax a little.
Araki Harima watched from the side and was filled with emotion in his heart.
Kentaro Miyazaki, among other things, there is one thing that Araki admires the most. There is no gift that his friend cannot give, and he can always make the other party accept the gift with confidence.
The kind that won’t work if you don’t collect it.
…
“Section Chief, I have an important matter to report here.” Cheng Qianfan said seriously.
"What's the matter?" Sanbonjiro was in a good mood and motioned for Kentaro Miyazaki to sit down and talk.
Cheng Qianfan not only did not sit down, but stood up straighter and said respectfully, "The patrol room found many strange faces coming and going, and my subordinates ordered them to investigate secretly, and indeed they made important discoveries."
"Oh!" Sanbonjiro heard this and immediately became interested and asked, "What discovery?"
“These people behave in a military style,” Cheng Qianfan said. “After investigation, it was found that some of them were members of the Qing Gang and later disappeared. It is rumored that they joined Dai Chunfeng’s Rangers.”
