Chapter 754 Thunderstorm in the old mans attendant room
Since the delegation stationed in Changzhi, the atmosphere in Changzhi City has become a bit tense, and everything is full of soldiers.
In the name of searching for Japanese spies, the Director of the Political Training Department of the 27th Army carried out a large-scale arrest of suspicious persons in the city with the purpose of preferring to kill a thousand people by mistake rather than let go of eight hundred.
I don’t know if the Japanese spies were caught. Anyway, the people in the city suffered a lot. Not only were their normal life order disrupted, but once they were suspected of being spies, they would have to pay a ransom at least, or their families would be destroyed at worst.
"General Officer, the guys from the Political Training Department have gone too far, causing resentment in the city. Many people have found me through connections. If this continues, it will ruin the reputation of our entire 27th Army!" Fan Han
Jie's adjutant said.
"Oh, it seems that they have a lot of connections, and their connections are actually open to you?" Fan Hanjie had no surprise on his face, and seemed to be knocking the adjutant in front of him.
In terms of function and importance, the position of adjutant is equivalent to the leader's secretary in the government, and to the old man, it is equivalent to the confidant in the attendant's room.
In front of Fan Hanjie, he is the adjutant, and after he goes out, he is equivalent to the deputy commander. There are few people in the entire 24th Army who do not give adjutant Fan Hanjie face.
"Chief Commander, I'm just reporting the truth, it's up to you to make the decision!"
"Those guys from the Political Training Department are just relying on their strength. Tell the people below to wait for a few days and then settle the score with the Political Training Department after the delegation leaves!" Fan Hanjie said with squinted eyes.
"Yes, my subordinates must convey it properly!"
Fan Hanjie knew very well the implication of the adjutant's words. He was not here to avenge the grievances of the common people, but to test Fan Hanjie's attitude toward the actions of the Political Training Department for the officers of the 27th Army and even the 24th Group Army.
Wherever there are people, there are groups and mountains. After the 24th Army occupied Changzhi, Fan Hanjie's goal was to develop Changzhi into a solid base. Both the Eighth Route Army and the Japs were targets that needed to be guarded against.
Different from the Eighth Route Army's method of developing base areas, Fan Hanjie issued a notice in order for the troops to quickly take root in Changzhi, allowing officers and soldiers to get married and start careers in Changzhi.
In this way, relying on the in-law relationship not only solves the personal problems of the officers and soldiers, but also makes the 24th Group as stable as Mount Tai in the Changzhi area.
Fan Hanjie's prestige within the 24th Group Army greatly increased, and at the same time he strengthened his ties with the Changzhi local faction.
Correspondingly, the combination of troops and local factions formed an intricate network of relationships in the Changzhi area, but this network of relationships was something Fan Hanjie was happy to see.
What the Political Training Office did this time undoubtedly touched the interests of the local faction in Changzhi, which is why some military officers started asking for advice. Fan Hanjie also wanted to use the Political Training Office to attack the local faction.
The officer group controls the military, the local faction controls finance, food and grass, and the Political Training Office, as the supervisor of the army, has always been in the embarrassing position of outsiders, with the weakest power, and can only live a life of dependence on others.
At this time, Fan Hanjie did not look like a soldier, but like a seasoned politician, sitting high on the Diaoyutai and watching the fight among several forces below.
"Sir, this is today's list. The family members of several of them are already waiting outside. They have brought everything, just waiting for you to summon them!" an officer from the Political Training Department reported.
"Oh, it came very quickly. Wu Zhiren's family members are also here?" the director of the Political Training Department asked.
"coming!"
"Okay!" Hearing this, the director of the Political Training Department immediately said: "In the future, I will seize the people, and each team will take action immediately. You personally lead people to search Wu Zhiren's lair. At dawn, no, within three hours, I will
See results that satisfy Chief Zheng!!”
"Sir, Wu Zhiren's sister is married to a regimental commander of the 46th Division of the 27th Army as the first wife. If the Wu family is confiscated, if no evidence can be obtained," the subordinate stopped talking.
, obviously worried about the consequences of this house raid.
"Nothing goes wrong, our military commander does not need evidence to do things!"
"Yes, I understand!"
The Political Training Office of the First War Zone is affiliated to the Political Department, and the director of the Political Training Office, Yu Tianming, is from the Political Department Minister Chen Cheng, while Zheng Yaoxian, the deputy director of the Political Training Office, is from the Military Command.
After Zheng Yaoxian took office, he first reorganized the troops at the Luoyang Station of the Military Command, and then gradually extended his tentacles to various combat units in the first theater.
The two factions fought fiercely. Since the 24th Group Army in the Changzhi area was dominant on one side, director Yu Tianming was unwilling to get into trouble with Fan Hanjie, so he gave up this position to Zheng Yaoxian's faction.
The director of the Political Training Department is naturally a member of the military command. He is not only responsible for internal monitoring of the movements of the national army in the Changzhi area, but also always pays close attention to the infiltration of the Eighth Route Army and the Japanese army in the local area.
Since the Changzhi area was occupied by the Chinese army, Changzhi, as the flank of Zhongtiao Mountain, has an extremely important geographical location. The Japanese army has always had the intention of counterattacking Changzhi, so it sent several intelligence teams to lurk in the Changzhi area.
Wu Zhiren was the leader of the Japanese intelligence team. His original intelligence team was busted by the military in Luoyang. Wu Zhiren alone escaped and unexpectedly lurked in Changzhi.
Zheng Yaoxian had grasped Wu Zhiren's situation early on. At this time, no one was allowed in or out of Changzhi City. In addition, the military commander was conducting a large-scale manhunt in the city. The Japanese spies lurking in the city were frightened.
At 10 o'clock that night, members of Wu Zhiren's intelligence team were arrested one after another. Only Wu Zhiren's sister escaped temporarily because she was married to a commander of the 46th Division.
"Brother Six, this is the confession of Wu Zhiren and the members of his team. The team is code-named "Water". There are six people in total. Except Wu Wenying, all of them have been arrested!" After the director of the Political Training Department found out the results of the interrogation, he met Zheng Yaoxian directly.
"You did a good job this time. I actually saw Wu Zhiren pulling out the radish and bringing out the mud in Changzhi. I will ask the boss for your credit!" Zheng Yaoxian said.
"Thank you, Sixth Brother, for your training. This is your duty as a subordinate!" the director of the Political Training Department stood at attention and responded.
Zheng Yaoxian continued to read the confession, and suddenly his eyes narrowed: "The mission instructions received at nine o'clock in the morning six days ago were from his grandmother. These little devils hid deep enough and got the news earlier than I knew. It seems that Shancheng
There’s a big fish hidden over there!”.
Song Xiao'an on the side said: "Brother Six, as a result, the target range at the headquarters has been narrowed. The selection of the members of the delegation is handled by the staff in the attendant's office. And six days ago in the morning, the members of the delegation just
We haven't gathered them together yet. I don't know what these people are going to do. It's obviously "
"Okay, I will report this matter to my boss and closely monitor everything in the city. Before departure, I will arrest the Japanese spies hiding in the delegation. I want to see if there are any other intelligence groups in the city who are desperate for their lives!"
"It's almost dawn!" Zheng Yaoxian said with a smile.
After the two left, Zheng Yaoxian personally reported to the military command headquarters that a Japanese spy was hidden in the attendant's room, and among the attendants responsible for selecting the delegation, the news quickly reached Dai Chunfeng's ears.
Japanese spies were actually lurking around the old man, which scared Dai Chunfeng to the point of breaking out in cold sweat. That night, Dai Chunfeng met with the old man. After receiving approval, the military commander quickly detained three attendants in the attendant's room.
Before dawn, the arrest operation of the military commanders in Changzhi City temporarily ceased, but the arrest operation started at the residence of the delegation under the leadership of Song Xiaoan.
There were four Japanese spies lurking within the delegation, two from the Military and Political Department, one from the Military Command Department, and one from the Executive Yuan.
These Japanese spies were hand-picked by spies lurking in the old man's attendant's room, because Okamura Neji was too eager to know the specific location where the Eighth Route Army held the trial.
This behavior caused the Japanese intelligence organization to violate the principle of lurking and secretly select personnel directly through spies in the attendant's room. Later, Wu Zhiren, who was lurking in the city, came into contact with members of the delegation to obtain intelligence.
In this way, many intelligence groups such as Changzhi, Yamashiro and the core spies lurking in the attendant's room are directly connected horizontally. If one of them is caught, it means that the military commander can poke a hole in Yamashiro's Japanese intelligence network.
