Chapter 990 Headquarters Hearing the News (Seeking Monthly Ticket)(1/2)
The turmoil was finally suppressed, and when Li Zhiqun counted the losses, he almost fainted.
The losses this time were far more than the previous one. The five operation brigades suffered as many as 1,000 casualties, and the core personnel suffered particularly serious losses.
Especially the Second Operation Brigade, because it had conflicted with the police in Shanghai and western China at the beginning, and its strength was dispersed, and the response was not timely, it almost lost all. Coupled with Wu Zhenming's death, the brigade was actually dead in name only.
And at the beginning, major casinos were used as battlefields, so almost all of these casinos were destroyed thoroughly, which was not considered lost gambling funds and cash.
It can be said that this time, the agent headquarters suffered unprecedented huge losses in terms of personnel and economy, which made Li Zhiqun feel heartbroken and cry without tears.
The armed forces of the Shanghai police were almost crippled. Zhou Fushan was not allowed to send urgent telegrams to Wang Baihai because the matter was too big, so he, the police minister, was unable to protect himself and had to ask Wang Baihai to rush back to save his life.
Because the matter involved the garrison and military police departments, especially Lieutenant General Tada expressed great dissatisfaction with the Kagesato organization. As the commander of the garrison, he was fully responsible for the defense work in Shanghai. However, now that there is a large-scale and large-scale unrest in Shanghai, he is responsible. In this regard, he put pressure on Haruki Masaliang to restrain the pseudo-government and prohibit such incidents from happening again.
After all, Masara Haruka lacks his identity. Facing Lieutenant General Tada, he really couldn't bear the pressure, so he had to generate electricity to the agency that was reporting to Japan, Yuki Hiroshi, and asked him to return to Shanghai as soon as possible to preside over the work.
This huge unrest also greatly affected the security environment in Shanghai, forcing a large number of citizens to join their families and rush to enter the concession to take refuge.
Ning Zhiheng also immediately ordered that the insiders placed in the Shanghai West Police Station and the Zuoqiang operation team members who participated in the operation all intervened among the refugees and promptly withdrew from the concession to avoid.
During this operation, Ning Zhiheng had to use intelligence personnel lurking in the city. Since carrying out intelligence work in the city, Yi Huaan has prepared extremely reliable identities for his intelligence personnel and placed them in various classes and departments, one of which was arranged in the Shanghai West Police Station.
This intelligence officer used various resources and quickly gained the trust of Director Xie Zi'an and gradually became a sheriff of the Shanghai West Police Department. It was his identity that made Ning Zhiheng choose Shanghai West as a breakthrough point for this operation.
According to the plan, the intelligence officer placed a time bomb in Jie Zi'an's office, and determined the time for the other two sheriffs to report to Jie Zi'an on a routine basis, and eliminated the three leaders in the Shanghai West Police Station who could hinder his actions in one fell swoop.
Next was to climb the high school and call, gather and incite the police officers to launch a retaliation at the secret service headquarters. Finally, when the two sides confronted each other, a team of police officers disguised by Zuo Qiang's operation team took the lead in launching an attack and provoking trouble.
Then they took advantage of the chaos to withdraw. What will happen in the end depends on God’s will!
In fact, the development of things made no one expect that the sparks sown quickly swept across the city like sparks.
The final effect was far beyond their expectations and Ning Zhiheng's expectations. The three assassinations he originally designed to try to anger Li Zhiqun, but they did not achieve their goal. Instead, the arrangement of the Shanghai West Police Station was achieved by such a shocking effect, which also gave him an unexpected surprise.
At this time, the major bridges leading to the concession were also crowded with fleeing people, and among these refugees, Chen Hongchi and others were.
Their hiding place was in West Shanghai. It was originally because of the special situation in West Shanghai, and the management system was relatively loose, which made it easier for them to hide their whereabouts. However, they did not expect that the first place where the turmoil occurred was in West Shanghai.
Chen Hongchi had planned to stay in the city of Shanghai before, and observe the changing situation in Shanghai more and understand the situation, but this big turmoil forced him to change his mind.
Because a large-scale city-wide search was inevitable, and the West of Shanghai was the top priority, so they could only enter the concession area to avoid the edge.
Crowded on the Baidu Bridge, wrapped in a hurry and crowded crowd, holding the luggage they carried with them tightly, and the few people looked embarrassed.
After the crowd rushed through the level, they met in a street, rested against the wall for a while, and took a breath.
Yang Wenbo looked back at the bridge deck and was still rushing into the concession, and couldn't help but say with lingering fear: "What's going on? Why is it suddenly in chaos? If you take a step late, you will almost fall into the city."
Lu Jian smiled and said, "The police station and the No. 76 fire and the dog bites a dog's mouth, it's not a good thing anyway."
Chen Hongchi was also confused by this sudden situation. He just reported the general situation to the headquarters last night, and something so big happened again today. He couldn't help but shake his head and said, "There must be a major situation, otherwise we wouldn't have such a big disturbance. Unfortunately, we don't have any information channels. However, this time, No. 76's energy was severely damaged. We will do things smoothly in the future. After this gust of wind, we will come back."
That night, the headquarters of the Chongqing Military Administration received a message from Chen Hongchi. Bian Ze, who was in charge of the intelligence station, dared not neglect and rushed to report to the bureau immediately.
When the authorities received the telegram, they couldn't believe their eyes. He had just received a telegram from Chen Hongchi yesterday, recounting that a large-scale firefight occurred in the city of Shanghai the night before yesterday, and he was secretly happy.
Today I received new information. Just during the day, in the city of Shanghai, the two powerful departments of the pseudo-government, the No. 76 Special Agent Headquarters and the police department, openly launched a large-scale fire, and all parties suffered heavy losses. The director was naturally extremely excited.
The director asked Bianze: "Have he not explained the reason clearly?"
Bianze shook his head and replied, "No, he just arrived in Shanghai and had no intelligence channels and could not reach this level, so he asked us to dispatch intelligence personnel to assist, otherwise their information would be blocked and it would be difficult to make a difference, and urge our operation personnel to be in place as soon as possible, otherwise he would not be able to carry out his work."
The bureau director nodded and said, "His requirements are very reasonable, but it is never easy to establish an intelligence network in Shanghai. Although I have already found a candidate, it will take some time for this work. However, the operation staff has not been in place for a long time. Xiangnan, has this problem not been solved yet?"
The first batch of operation personnel were sent before. When entering the Japanese occupied area, they accidentally exposed flaws and had a fire with the local traitor troops. The losses were quite large and they had to hide on the spot. The situation was difficult. The bureau asked Bianze to arrange rescue before.
Bian Ze quickly replied: "I spent a lot of money to clear the links. The personnel were rescued, but the losses were too heavy. I have sent a second batch of personnel. This time, I will enter Zhejiang and sneak into Shanghai again. It is safer, but this time will be extended."
"That's good, there can't be any more problems. There is only Huo Yueze's intelligence department in Shanghai, and his strength is too weak."
The bureau chief mentioned the Shanghai Intelligence Department all at once, and frowned and continued: "By the way, for such a big event, the Intelligence Department should have news from it. Why hasn't it been heard yet?"
The information from the Shanghai Intelligence Department has always been the most informative and accurate, but the telegrams were sent to the headquarters of Operations Department 2 and handed over by Wei Liangbi, but Wei Liangbi did not report to the headquarters in the past two days.
Bianze explained: "They will not miss such an important situation. Huo Yueze's intelligence department has accurate information channels and will definitely find out the true situation."
Speaking of this, he suddenly looked at the bureau chief and asked in confusion: "The movements of the second department of Operations have been significantly slower during this period. Zhiheng has been busy executing criminals these days. I heard that the prisoners in the second department of Operations have been executed, but the clearance operation seems to have not made any progress, and the silver fox has completely lost its trace. Is there something wrong with the bureau chief?"
Since Ning Zhiheng left Chongqing, Tan Jinhui took over the role again. In addition to the work arranged by Ning Zhiheng, Tan Jinhui could no longer show up in Chongqing. Such changes quickly made Bian Ze and others realize something was wrong.
The director smiled and explained: "I know this matter. Before I could not inform you, the important task that Zhiheng was responsible for had not been completed. Now a new problem has occurred. The matter happened suddenly, so Deputy Director Huang and I decided to let him go back and continue to preside over the work. This work is of a special nature and is the highest level of confidentiality. Don't bother him."
When Bian Ze heard this, he suddenly realized that Ning Zhiheng had seen the dragon before but not the tail, and it was rare to show up once, but now it is like this again.
"That's the work of internal purging?"
The director waved his hand and said, "I will discuss this issue later..."
At this moment, Secretary Liu knocked in and reported: "Court Director Gu, please see me!"
"Let him in!"
Soon, Gu Zhengqi walked in quickly, came to him a few steps, and reported urgently: "Minister, the latest news from Shanghai!"
The director laughed and said, "Even you heard the news, it seems that the news is quite a bit!"
Gu Zhengqi looked at the telegram on the desk table and immediately understood the news that the bureau had already received, and said with a smile: "It's not just a lot of noise. The police department and No. 76 were openly furious, and the entire Shanghai beach was overthrown. I heard that the western urban area was in ruins, and the southern urban area also suffered heavy losses. This time, the pseudo-government lost all its face, but I don't know what the specific reason is!"
It turns out that the Chongqing government does not only have the power of the Military Affairs Bureau in Shanghai, but also has a full-time department affiliated to the Ministry of Finance.
After the fall of Shanghai, the four major banks of the Chongqing government, including the Central Bank, Bank of China, Bank of Communications and Farmers' Bank, did not evacuate from Shanghai, but chose to move all into the public concession and persisted.
Of course, there are many reasons, which also considers the overall financial security of the country. Once these four major banks retreat, not only will the fiat currency and foreign exchange market undergo drastic changes, but it will also destroy the financial stability in the rear. In this way, the economic power of several southeastern provinces will be completely under the hands of the Japanese invaders and will be seized by them at their fingertips. It will be very unfavorable to themselves, and will also affect the audio-visual internationally and involve a huge amount of involvement.
These four major banks are all affiliated to the Ministry of Finance. They have an office in the Shanghai Concession, referred to as the Silian Branch Office. They have their own staff and commercial radio stations, and of course they only conduct economic activities and are not able to interfere in intelligence work.
Such a large turmoil occurred in the downtown area of Shanghai, and a large number of citizens flocked to the Shanghai Concession. The news finally reached the Silian Branch. So the Silian Branch reported the situation to the Ministry of Finance through the radio station. Gu Zhengqi's Intelligence Department 2 has its own spies in major key departments of the Chongqing government, and soon got the news from the Ministry of Finance.
Now Shanghai is the focus of all forces across the country, and any situation that occurs is important information. When Gu Zhengqi saw the content, he naturally attached great importance to it, so he quickly came to report to the bureau.
Gu Zhengqi continued: "The Ministry of Finance has reported this news to the Commissioner. The Commissioner is very happy and said that this is the demolition of the pseudo-government. Now Wang Baihai is in North China and is jumping up and down activities. The Commissioner is having a headache about this. Now his backyard is on fire. Let's see how this old boy deals with it!"
His Intelligence Department 2 is the most well-informed within the National Party, and even the situation of the committee can be grasped at any time.
When the director heard this, his eyes tightened. Everything about the commissioner was put in the first place. Now the great turmoil in Shanghai has been passed on to the highest level. The commissioner will definitely ask him the truth of the matter tomorrow, but he is still confused here. How can he answer the commissioner's question?
The serious expression of the director also made the other two people react suddenly. The two of them looked at each other and became a little solemn.
The bureau slapped the table and said flatly: "Today we must find out the truth about the turmoil in Shanghai!"
After saying that, he picked up the phone and called the second department of Operations. He knew that Ning Zhiheng was not in Chongqing at all, so he directly called Wei Liangbi.
The phone was quickly answered, and the bureau chief asked directly: "Liangbi, has the latest telegram sent by the Shanghai Intelligence Department? Especially the information about the big turmoil in Shanghai during the day today?"
Wei Liangbi's voice sounded on the other side of the phone: "Yes, I just sent it here, but it's a little late. I originally planned to report to you tomorrow morning, so I'll send it to you now."
The director was delighted. He knew that as long as the intelligence capabilities of the Shanghai Intelligence Department were not comparable to those of other departments, there must be the answer he wanted. He immediately ordered: "Okay, send it here immediately, I'll wait for you!"
The director put down the phone and said with a smile: "The information department has indeed been reported back. They must have found out the truth of the matter. Wei Liangbi will be sent here immediately!"
Bianze and Gu Zhengqi both breathed a sigh of relief when they heard this. The information from the Shanghai Intelligence Department had never disappointed them, and this time it was the same.
Twenty minutes later, Wei Liangbi arrived on time, came to the office of the bureau, submitted a message to the bureau, and said respectfully: "The situation in Shanghai these days is chaotic and changing very quickly, so the intelligence department did not send back the message. However, today, everything has been summarized and sent back together. The message is a bit long, which delayed some deciphering time, so it was a bit late!"
The director was in a good mood today, so he also joked: "I'm not afraid of being late for a good meal. I don't want to eat your meal today, I'm afraid I can't sleep!"
After saying that, he laughed and reached out to take the message and checked it carefully. Soon his eyes narrowed. He finished reading the message soon. He felt worried and read it again. After a long time, he put down the message, breathed a long sigh, and slowly leaned on the back of the chair.
He gently said, "The stormy waves are still stormy!"
The director was completely shocked by the content in this telegram. It turned out that everything that happened in Shanghai these days was Ning Zhiheng's careful layout, needlework, and creative masterpieces.
From provoking Li Zhiqun to attack, to taking advantage of troubled waters to assassinate Deng Zhengming, and intensifying the conflict between Ding and Li, and then making a clever arrangement to assassinate Li Yunqing, and then making a mistake in the face of Ding Mo and pulling Zhou Fu into the mountains, causing the first late-night fire and then assassinating important cadres from both sides, especially inciting the police in western Shanghai to launch an attack. It was a masterpiece, and eventually caused this massive unrest, paralyzing the Shanghai police force and severely damaging the No. 76 agent headquarters.
The steps described step by step are clear and organized. It can be said that Ning Zhiheng's design is carefully arranged and linked, making the director unable to help but applaud!
The Commission has always asked the Military Affairs Bureau to crack down on the pseudo-government and prevent its development. However, in the past year, he has invested a lot of manpower and material resources, and has violated the regulations on intelligence work and launched cruel agent wars with the enemy at the enemy's base camp. However, in the end, it was just a loss of troops and generals and was futile, so the Commission was very dissatisfied with his work and repeatedly urged him to strengthen his attacks.
However, just when Wang Hanmin surrendered to the enemy and the hidden forces in the entire East China region were hit unprecedentedly, Ning Zhiheng rushed back to Shanghai and turned the tide. He took over the work in Shanghai for only half a month. He made clever arrangements and used the force to completely reverse the unfavorable situation in Shanghai. It can be said that this action is of great significance not only to the situation in Shanghai, but also to the Military Affairs Bureau.
It can be imagined that when facing the inquiry from the commissioner tomorrow, if you hand over this report card, your position and the Military Intelligence Bureau in the minds of the commissioner will be more stable, and the ending will be so successful!
The director was so moved that he felt so much more proud the more he thought about it. He was naturally very excited. He was depressed and depressed by Wang Hanmin before, and now he has suddenly calmed down!
By the way, Wang Hanmin!
The only thing that is not bad is that Ning Zhiheng’s main task is to eliminate Wang Hanmin, and it was finally successful and failed. But it doesn’t matter. With Ning Zhiheng’s ability to act, this task is not difficult!
When Bianze and Gu Zhengqi heard the words of the bureau, they both realized something. Could it be that the changes in the situation in Shanghai have something to do with the Shanghai Intelligence Department?
The director looked at their inquiring gaze and handed the message to Bian Ze. Although the content inside was detailed, it did not mention the word Ning Zhiheng, so it would be okay to show it to them.
Gu Zhengqi couldn't help but come over to watch it together. The two of them were very surprised after reading the telegram. They never expected that everything was a result of the Shanghai Intelligence Department making clever arrangements and fueling the fire.
Gu Zhengqi slapped Wei Liangbi's arm excitedly and laughed loudly: "Beautiful job! Huo Yueze, when he was at the Nanjing headquarters, I looked at him. How about it? I have no bad eyes? I killed the enemy step by step without losing my own soldiers. I have a careful calculation and can be regarded as a brilliant person!"
Speaking of this, he turned his head to the game and said, "This time our Military Affairs Bureau has won the first prize! The bureau chief, we must talk about it tomorrow. This is a wonderful achievement!"
The director said with a relaxed tone and a smile on his face, but with a little reserved attitude: "This is natural. I will consider it carefully. We must let the commissioner see our efforts!"
Bian Ze, who has always been disliked to praise others, held up the telegram in his hand and couldn't help but exclaim: "It's really a good plan, it can be called a classic work of intelligence operations. Huo Yueze has a very ambitious style!"
When the director and Wei Liangbi heard Bian Ze's words, they were both stunned and smiled. They knew very well that this action was of course Ning Zhiheng's masterpiece, but unexpectedly, they would make Huo Yueze's reputation instead.
The director waved his hand and smiled, "This time the Shanghai Intelligence Department has made a lot of contributions. I will discuss it with Zhongxin and will definitely reward you! By the way, Liangbi, you will send a notice to the Intelligence Department and let them continue to help. You should clear Wang Hanmin as soon as possible and not give him any more opportunities. This person has entered the industry early and was a backbone during the Lixing Society. He knows too much about our details. He can't tell when he will stab us, but it will be bloody! Never underestimate his harm!"
