Dai Chunfeng's face was as sinking as water, and he was pacing back and forth.
Qi Wu knocked on the door and entered.
"Is there any news from Tianjin?" Dai Chunfeng asked urgently.
Qi Wu shook his head.
Dai Chunfeng let out a long sigh.
Last month, after Wang Tiemu rebelled and defected to Japan, the Military Command Headquarters issued a warning to Tianjin. Tianjin District Chief Che Che put his life and death at risk and persisted in the war of resistance because he had unfinished work. Unexpectedly, he failed to escape his fate:
Che Che, the district chief of the Tianjin Military Command, and Zeng Zhiyi, the station chief, were successively arrested by the Japanese Military Police.
Upon hearing the bad news, Dai Chunfeng was extremely anxious.
Che Che, a native of Ruian, Zhejiang, graduated from Shanghai Law School in the 11th year of the Republic of China. His writings are sharp and he also focuses on the national crisis with strong ambition.
At that time, he was introduced by Lin Huangyan, director of the General Office of the Military Commission of the National Government, and joined the Lixingshe Secret Service. He was one of the famous college students in the early days of the Secret Service and served as the assistant secretary of Room A of Jigexiang.
When he was one year old, he was appointed as Secretary of Jiangxi Linchuan Office.
When he was two years old again, he was transferred to Baoding Station Secretary.
Che Che was very interested in spy work and once told people: "When you marry and have children in the future, you will teach your children to pass on the mantle and become agents for generations to come."
When people asked why, they said: "Secret agents are the most loyal people. In terms of work application, the rank of official is increased by one level. There is no one in the world who is more noble than an agent."
Before the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, Dai Chunfeng secretly sent Che Che to Tianjin to contact the passionate young people in North China.
After Che Che went north, he organized the "Anti-Japanese Killing Group" and made great achievements one after another.
In March this year, Che Che was transferred to Tianjin Station Director of the Military Unification Bureau.
Soon, he was promoted to Tianjin District Governor.
Zeng Zhiyi, courtesy name Wenjin, was born in Shaoyang, Hunan.
Graduated from Peking University of China.
In the 14th year of the Republic of China, he served as a standing committee member of the Peiping City Party Headquarters of the Kuomintang.
During the Northern Expedition, he successively served as the political director of the Second Army Headquarters, the director of the Propaganda Department of the Shandong Provincial Government, and the secretary of the Second Route Headquarters.
In the 23rd year of the Republic of China, he participated in the work of the Secret Service, was assigned as the leader of the investigation section of the Nanchang camp, and was transferred to the second station in Peiping.
This year, Tianjin Station was promoted to district, Che Che became the district chief, and Zeng Zhiyi was transferred to Tianjin Station Chief.
Che Che and Zeng Zhiyi were both generals whom Dai Chunfeng trusted very much and entrusted him with important responsibilities.
After Che Che and Zeng Zhiyi were arrested, Dai Chunfeng ordered the North China authorities to do everything possible to find out about Che Che and Zeng Zhiyi.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door, and Mao Shun came in with a report.
"Bureau seat, urgent call to Tianjin."
Qi Wu stepped forward and grabbed the telegram, waved his hand to signal Mao Shun to leave, and handed the telegram to Dai Chunfeng with both hands.
Dai Chunfeng read the message intently.
The comrades who survived the disaster in Tianjin District took a huge risk and bribed the jailer, found out the situation of Che Che and Zeng Zhiyi, and reported it immediately.
After Che Che was arrested, the Japanese felt like they had found a treasure and intended to pry Che Che's mouth and use his confession to wipe out the entire Tianjin military reunification organization.
However, Che Che was tortured severely and remained unyielding and unyielding.
The cruel Japanese invaders ordered four big men, each holding Cha Che Che's hands and feet, to throw him into the air. Che Che was thrown to the point where he sometimes fainted and sometimes regained consciousness, but never uttered a word.
Two days ago, Che Che went on a hunger strike in order to die quickly.
Upon seeing this, the Japanese invaders hatched a conspiracy, abandoned severe torture, and adopted a gentle policy. They injected Che Che with nutritional injections to extend his life.
The Japanese leader asked hypocritically: "Scholar Jun, why do you destroy the law and discipline and risk your own life?"
Che Che frowned coldly and replied: "I kill enemies and hoe traitors, and obey nature and obey people. How can I destroy law and discipline? Seek benevolence and gain benevolence. Why should I fear death!"
His voice and look were fierce and his righteousness was awe-inspiring.
The Japanese invaders were helpless.
According to the latest information, the Japanese have taken Che Che to the Peking Military Police Force Reformatory and detained him in an attempt to induce him to rebel.
The cable also contains information about Zeng Zhiyi’s situation after his arrest.
After Zeng Zhiyi was arrested, he remained unmoved in the face of severe torture and inducements by the Japanese aggressors. "Whenever he was being tortured, he shouted loudly and expressed his joy, which made the Japanese puppets speechless."
The cable contains two secret letters sent by Zeng Zhiyi who tried to bribe the jailer.
One is for Tianjin Station——
I have been engaged in the revolution for more than 20 years. Unfortunately, I have been captured by the enemy and puppets. I should swear to die in repayment to the country. The Central Committee of the Station urgently sent someone to take over, so as to avoid being derelict and being blamed again.
The second is a suicide note to Dai Chunfeng:
For the work at Tianjin Station, please immediately ask the bureau chief to assign another person to take charge. Now that the department is in the enemy's hands, knowing that it is difficult to survive, we have already made the greatest determination and are ready to sacrifice. We only hope that our Chinese civilization will continue and we will win the war of resistance.
Holding the telegraph newspaper in his hand, Dai Chunfeng's eyes were astringent and his eye sockets were slightly red.
He handed the telegram to Qi Wu, "Che Che and Zeng Zhiyi are both patriots of our army's unification of Qiancheng."
After reading the telegram, Qi Wu was also shocked, "Commander, we must rescue Che at all costs. You two are the best."
"Diagram." Dai Chunfeng said in a deep voice with a serious expression.
Qi Wu immediately held the wooden folder and picked up paper and pen to record.
"Order the Tianjin District to send personnel to sneak into the reformatory and pass on my message to Che Che." Dai Chunfeng paused and continued, "We might as well pretend to surrender to the Japanese and then escape from danger on camera in order to be re-elected."
Qi Wu stopped writing. He looked at Dai Chunfeng, frowned and said, "In the position, Che Che is strong and strong. Judging from his temperament, words and deeds, he will not be willing to bend his knees and live as a Japanese slave."
"I know, I know." Dai Chunfeng sighed, his voice slightly hoarse, "Pass my words to Che Che, just say that I, Dai Chunfeng, beg him to stay alive, to survive, the anti-Japanese war needs him! The party and the country need him."
"Yes!" Qi Wu nodded silently.
"Also, try to summon Zeng Wenjin." Dai Chunfeng continued, "Just say, don't sacrifice yourself lightly, I will allow him to pretend to surrender to the Japanese for future plans!"
Qi Wu stopped writing again and smiled bitterly, "Setting down, Zeng Zhiyi has a death wish."
"I know, I know, I know." Dai Chunfeng was a little anxious, "Send my message over."
In his heart, he was pleased with Che Che and Zeng Zhiyi's perseverance, but now he had a headache.
Qi Wu shook his head and sighed with emotion. Both Che Che and Zeng Zhiyi were scholars. They joined the army just to write, but they had an admirable iron will and a pride that would rather break than bend!
Putting away the folder, Qi Wu handed the telegram manuscript to Dai Chunfeng.
Dai Chunfeng looked carefully, nodded slightly, "Quickly call Ning Zhonghan."
After the arrests of Che Che and Zeng Zhiyi, the Tianjin District temporarily appointed Ning Zhonghan, who was lurking in the Italian Concession in Tianjin, as the acting district chief. He was ordered to take charge of the district affairs work of Tianjin District in the face of danger.
After a while, Qi Wu left and came back again. His serious expression was solemn and he said, "Seat down, the Blue Bird is in urgent need of electricity."
Dai Chunfeng also had a serious expression on his face.
Having just warned the bureau headquarters that Shanghai Rite had used a so-called radio wave locator to search for radio stations, Cheng Qianfan took the risk again and called, not in the name of the Shanghai Special Intelligence Team or "Xiao Mian", but in the name of "Xiao Mian".
Dai Chunfeng couldn't help but feel nervous when he called in the name of "Blue Bird".
