The Dragon Boat Festival was not just for entertainment, it was to create opportunities for Zhou Weiguo to leave.
With so many pairs of eyes staring at Zhou Weiguo, even if Zhou Weiguo had been trained in this area, there was no guarantee that he would not make mistakes, so Duanwu used a trick to defeat the Japs first, and then break them up, so that Zhou Weiguo would have a chance to leave.
After leaving the hotel, Duanwu and Zhou Weiguo left separately.
The Dragon Boat Festival is the main surveillance target, so the little Japanese spies cannot throw away the Dragon Boat Festival.
So four followed Dragon Boat Festival, while the other two followed Zhou Weiguo.
However, with Zhou Weiguo's skill, the two Japs still wanted to follow him, and they got rid of them after going around a few alleys.
Zhou Weiguo came to a gambling house. After entering, he squeezed through the crowd and came to the back door.
After entering from here, there is a courtyard. The courtyard is not very big, and there are several sturdy men staring here with their arms folded.
One of them asked: "What do you do? Why are you here in the backyard?"
"Look for someone, Wang Zhongxin!"
Zhou Weiguo replied, several people looked at each other, and one of them asked: "What do you call sir?"
"Zhou Weiguo."
Zhou Weiguo replied, and the strong man quickly smiled and said: "It turns out to be Mr. Zhou. Please come with me. Mr. Wang and others are still inside."
"kindness!"
Zhou Weiguo responded and followed the strong man deep into the backyard.
This casino is very large, with a lot of gamblers gambling in the front, and an office of Shanghai Zhongtong in the backyard.
Of course, this is not the only office of Zhongtong, but one of many.
The strong man led Zhou Weiguo and continued to walk deeper into the backyard. There were also guards here, and there were more guards than in the front yard. There were only four guards in front of the backyard, but there were more than a dozen here.
The strong man in the front yard led the way, but the dozen or so people did not stop him.
Zhou Weiguo entered the attic, and after turning two rooms to the left, he saw two doors facing each other.
The strong man knocked on the door and said, "Stationmaster, Mr. Zhou is here."
"Well, let him come in."
A middle-aged man's voice came from inside the house, the guard outside pushed the door open, and Zhou Weiguo walked in.
At this time, a person walked towards him, it was Wang Zhongxin. Wang Zhongxin said with a smile: "Captain Zhou, why did you come here? You can let us wait."
At this point, Wang Zhongxin introduced Zhou Weiguo again: "Captain Zhou, this is the chief of the Shanghai Station of the Central Unification Committee - Chief Xu Bowen."
Zhou Weiguo followed Wang Zhongxin's gesture and saw a middle-aged man with a somewhat bookish look.
"Hello, stationmaster Xu!"
Zhou Weiguo shook hands with the other party politely.
At this time, Wang Zhongxin introduced another young woman: "This is Miss Cao Yingcao."
"Hello, Miss Cao!"
Zhou Weiguo shook hands with her. Of course, he did not know the relationship between Cao Ying and his elder brother Liu Yuan. Moreover, he did not know that Xu Bowen in front of him was the traitor who almost sacrificed his head to the Japanese.
At this time, Wang Zhongxin continued to introduce: "This is Director Wang Hai of the Shanghai Office of Military Reunification. He is my family, hahaha!"
"Hello, Director Wang!"
Zhou Weiguo shook hands with Director Wang.
Afterwards, Wang Zhongxin introduced two military commanders, and then everyone took their seats.
At this time, Xu Bowen asked: "Captain Zhou, I heard from Staff Officer Wang that you went to see the Dragon Boat Festival last night, so why did you arrive now? We people have been waiting here for you all night?"
Zhou Weiguo laughed and said: "What? Does Station Commander Xu suspect that I have surrendered to the enemy and treason? Hahaha!"
Xu Bowen laughed coldly and said: "Haha, what a joke, what a joke, Captain Zhou's father is Mr. Zhou Jixian, how could he surrender to the enemy and treason? But, I heard that you brought an underground party with you this time?
The underground party is all-pervasive, and the best is the rhetoric, so Commander Zhou, please don’t go astray?"
Zhou Weiguo understood clearly that Xu Bowen was not worried about the Japanese at all, but was still keeping an eye on the underground party.
However, Zhou Weiguo had no interest in partisanship from beginning to end. He had only one enemy, and that was the Japanese.
So Zhou Weiguo said: "I have no interest in the affairs between these parties. And I don't need to report to you what I do. I now take orders directly from the special commissioner. I think everyone should know that the Dragon Boat Festival special commissioner is
The person in charge of this operation and all of us are just cooperating with the special commissioner's actions."
Zhou Weiguo's words silenced everyone present. Because indeed, the identity of the Dragon Boat Festival's special commissioner was indeed very bluffing.
However, these people are not all scared, and many of them are veteran spies who have been engaged in espionage activities for many years.
So when I heard Zhou Weiguo's words at this time, most of them went in through one ear and out through the other.
Wang Hai said at this time: "Having said that, there are not many special agents stationed in Shanghai by our army. Recently, we have been asked to increase our efforts to infiltrate Japanese agencies, so this time, we can only do our best. If
If we fight the Japanese head-on, I'm afraid our military commander won't be able to do much."
Wang Hai's words made Zhou Weiguo frown slightly, because this was not the result he expected. He had told Duan Wu before that there was no way the Zhongtong and Juntong could gather around a hundred people. But after listening to Wang Hai's words,
I'm afraid they didn't say that he would share half of the burden and send out fifty people. I'm afraid they might not even have ten.
Of course, Zhou Weiguo would never have imagined that both the military commander and the central commander would receive orders that were obeyed and violated.
In other words, it was the chairman's order to cooperate with the Dragon Boat Festival operation. But in fact, neither Boss Dai nor Director Du thought about trying their best.
So Wang Hai found an excuse, saying that he had no one.
The same goes for Xu Bowen. Although he said that he could dispatch 20 people, he had to temporarily deploy them. He emphasized that it was a miracle that they could survive in Shanghai. They couldn't just do nothing and just protect the Dragon Boat Festival?
Zhou Weiguo became more and more angry as he listened, and sneered: "Comrades, please forgive me for saying something you don't like to hear. You are really not as good as the underground party. At least what I heard over there was the word "go all out".
.
Moreover, it is an order issued by the chairman of the committee for you to cooperate with each other, right? And you should also know what identity Duan Wu is.
Also, I’m not negotiating with you. Each of your families will provide me with fifty people and let me command them. Otherwise, I will report it directly to the special commissioner and ask him to come to see you in person. Humph! Farewell!"
After Zhou Weiguo finished speaking, he left a strange smile, then stood up and left.
"this?"
Director Wang said this awkwardly, but Zhou Weiguo had no intention of staying because he still wanted to see Chen Yi.
At the same time, Xu Bowen signaled to Cao Ying: "Go and see off Captain Zhou. Why does he have such a bad temper?"
