However, if Japan also develops and produces atomic weapons, then the world's political power will be seriously tilted. Then the Kuomintang will never have the opportunity to return to the mainland.
Metz said softly: "Mr. Ye, this is something we cannot accept. I believe that includes you."
After all, Ye Gongjin still has some political acumen, has a relatively clear understanding of the international political situation, and is good at analyzing various intelligence. However, Metz's first sentence was to ask if there was any news about Zuo Shaoqing.
What special relationship does Zuo Shaoqing have with South Vietnam and atomic weapons? This is the question in his mind.
At this time, the news that Ruan Qibo, Secretary-General of the South Vietnam Presidential Office, had been assassinated suddenly flashed into his mind. This incident was extremely strange. Ruan Qibo was relatively pro-Soviet and had a favorable impression of China. However, the newspaper said that he was assassinated by the Communist Party.
Someone assassinated him. This was something that made him very suspicious.
But now, damn now! His mind suddenly became brighter. Things that were originally in the fog gradually became clear, and he gradually saw the mystery.
At this time, Ye Gongjin had vaguely understood that the purpose of Ruan Qibo's assassination was to destroy the relationship between China and the Soviet Union! Then, the person who assassinated Ruan Qibo must not be someone from the Communist Party, but...
Ye Gongjin stared at Metz, with a sinister smile on his face, "Mr. Metz, now I can probably guess who assassinated Mr. Ruan Qibo. Do you want me to tell you?"
Mace looked at Ye Gongjin calmly, "Mr. Ye, there are some things that can only be known in the heart and cannot be expressed in words."
But Ye Gongjin still didn't understand something. He asked: "But, what does this matter have to do with Zuo Shaoqing? Zuo Shaoqing couldn't have done it, right?" There was a trace of vicious ridicule on his face.
.[
This was the most painful thing for Metz. He had thought of many ways to answer, but none of them could be separated from the word "stupid". He knew that he could only tell the truth now. He said: "Mr. Ye
, We believe, we definitely believe that she saw the entire process of Mr. Ruan’s assassination, and..."
"And what?" Ye Gongjin finally became interested and stared into Mace's eyes.
"And...she most likely took the photo!" Metz's face was already distorted in pain.
Ye Gongjin's mind was running rapidly. A lot of information flashed through his mind, and a series of conclusions were drawn. One conclusion led to another conclusion, and they flashed one by one. The final result was that Zuo Shaoqing's hand was
Once the photos are released, it will be a trivial matter for the Americans to lose face. The closer relationship between China and the Soviet Union will also be a fucking trivial matter! What is terrible is that the Japanese will definitely obtain the technology to make atomic weapons from the Soviet Union! What the hell!
That's the key!
Ye Gongjin nodded, "Mr. Mace, I already understand what the overall situation is."
Metz smiled reluctantly, "That's great. According to the information I have, Zuo Shaoqing crossed the border into Cambodia the day before yesterday. Mr. Ye, we have no one there."
Ye Gongjin nodded again, "I understand, you need our people to intercept Zuo Shaoqing?"
Metz stretched his head forward, "Mr. Ye, it's not about interception, it's about elimination! It's about elimination in case of loss of ground!"
Ye Gongjin understood in his heart that even as powerful as the CIA, there were times when they were not powerful enough. Now they finally had something to ask of him. This feeling made him feel much better.
In the evening of that day, Ye Gongjin drove back to the Intelligence Bureau of the Ministry of National Defense again.
He first went to Pan Qiwu's office. Just as he guessed, Pan Qiwu did not get off work and was still handling official business in his office. He pointed to Pan Qiwu, turned and walked into his office.
For Pan Qiwu, the fact that Ye Gongjin left the Intelligence Bureau without a word of explanation was an anomaly in itself. He understood his situation and had to be careful at all times.
Seeing Ye Gongjin's gesture, he immediately left his desk and walked into Ye Gongjin's office. As soon as he saw Ye Gongjin's face, he knew that there must be something special and important.
Ye Gongjin waved to Pan Qiwu to sit down opposite him, but he was extremely hesitant in his heart. There were two reasons for this. First, how much he wanted to talk to Pan Qiwu. Second, what Metz said was simple, he needed his people in Cambodia to solve the problem of Zuo
Shaoqing. But things are definitely not that simple. He knows better than anyone what kind of person Zuo Shaoqing is. Getting rid of her in Cambodia is not easy! Therefore, he needs to take one more step to consider.
"Brother Qiwu," since he couldn't touch Pan Qiwu now, he had to be more polite to him. He asked: "Brother Qiwu, how many people do we have in Southeast Asia?" [
This was a very vague question. Pan Qiwu guessed his intention and decided to answer honestly, "Director, in Southeast Asia, our strength is okay. But not every country has people. In Vietnam, Indonesia and Thailand, we have stations.
In other countries, there are groups, with only one or two people."
"Where are you in Cambodia?" Ye Gongjin asked calmly.
Pan Qiwu had vaguely guessed what he meant, and it was most likely about Zuo Shaoqing. Two days ago, he had received information that Zuo Shaoqing, who was sent to South Vietnam to train local intelligence personnel, had absconded. The specific reason was unknown. But he could not
ask.
He said softly: "Director, in Cambodia, we have an intelligence team. It is a large team with about seven people. In addition, we can add more manpower there at any time when needed."
Ye Gongjin nodded. This was good news and allowed him to arrange and arrange it carefully.
Ye Gongjin thought silently, and his thoughts had turned to the other side. Because he knew Zuo Shaoqing too well, he needed to arrange his action plan more carefully.
He asked: "Qiwu, how much strength do we still have on the mainland?"
Pan Qiwu looked at him and immediately said: "Director, I have brief information on our personnel in mainland China. Do you want to take a look?"
Ye Gongjin nodded again. Pan Qiwu immediately stood up and left the office. A few minutes later, he walked in with a brown file marked "Absolute Confidential" and handed it to Ye Gongjin, "Director, please take a look."
What Ye Gongjin held in his hand was a light brown kraft paper dossier. It was thin and the surface of the dossier had some wear and tear. There was a thin string tied between the front and back covers of the dossier. On the upper right side of the dossier was "Absolute Confidential"
The seal is shocking.
Ye Gongjin gently untied the string and opened the file. There were only a dozen pages in the file. He could see at a glance that the file contained indeed brief information. Each page recorded the basic situation of a latent group. Their
Code name, team leader’s name, lurking location, main personnel, and their tasks.
Ye Gongjin understood that their detailed information must be in the top-secret filing cabinet in the archives room. And this file was prepared for the intelligence agency's top brass to make decisions. He raised his head and glanced at Pan Qiwu, "Is that all?"
Pan Qiwu leaned forward and said, "Director, this is the most important team and it is classified as a first-level secret."
"How wide is its reading range?" Ye Gongjin asked softly.
"It used to be Director Mao, but now it's you. I'm in charge." Pan Qiwu replied succinctly.
Ye Gongjin nodded and said no more. He lowered his head and read through these brief information one by one. After more than ten minutes, when Ye Gongjin finished reading all these brief information, he couldn't help but reveal a smile on his face. Among these dozen or so
Among the group lurking in the mainland, there are actually two people who were his former subordinates.
One is Zhao Minggui, the leader of the Major General team, who is lurking in Jinan.
The past was like smoke, filling Ye Gongjin's mind. All the love affairs in Nanjing flashed before his eyes one by one. This shrewd, cautious, and calm Zhao Minggui could still survive in the harsh environment of the mainland.
There must be his reasons. Ye Gongjin understood in his mind that he trusted this person.
The other one, to Ye Gongjin's surprise, turned out to be You Shaoqing. She was not the team leader. But he immediately saw that You Shaoqing must have an extraordinary role in this team. The team leader was Wei Mingshui. Ye Gongjin
Knowing this person, he was a veteran spy during the military unification period. There was a bracket after his name, which read: You Shaoqing. Ye Gongjin vaguely understood that You Shaoqing's status in this group may be the second in command. Also
There is a possibility that she is the de facto number one. Their lurking location is Wuhan.
But Ye Gongjin still pointed at this page and asked: "Qiwu, what is going on with this group?"
Pan Qiwu turned behind him and immediately said: "Director, this group is a little special. This Wei Mingshui has no political problems and has sufficient qualifications, but his personality is a little rough. This group can survive until now.
It was this You Shaoqing who played the role. The director must know this You Shaoqing very well."
Ye Gongjin nodded. He knew in his heart that You Shaoqing and her sister Zuo Shaoqing were the wisest, most astute and most capable agents he had ever seen. He carefully treated the two sisters in his heart.
Comparing and weighing, he felt that the older sister was superior. But after all these years, who can say for sure?
At this time, he noticed that in the upper right corner of this brief information, there were three small words written in pencil: "To be contacted".
He clicked on these three words, "Qiwu, what's going on?"
Pan Qiwu took a look and sighed, "This group has lost contact with us."
Ye Gongjin frowned, "Loss?"
Pan Qiwu Shen "Yin" Literature Network: "No. At the end of 1954, the contact between this group and us was suddenly interrupted for unknown reasons. We did think it was a loss at the time. But not long after, we suddenly received a message from this group
Several sets of telegrams came. The telegrams were incomplete and I didn’t know what they said. After analysis, the Telecommunications Department concluded that this telegram was indeed sent by Wei Mingshui’s telegraph operator, and the characteristics were very obvious. Secondly, judging from the unstable signal, it seemed that they were
