On the eve of the Western Winter Solstice (Christmas) in 1937, Zuo Chong met his former deputy Gu Qi and his old classmate Chen Dongxin in the secret service office at No. 33 Pingyue Road, Wuchang.

The two had just arrived in Jiangcheng by boat from Shancheng, with the purpose of assisting Zuo Chong to complete the mission of sweeping Japanese intelligence forces assigned by Dai Chunfeng.

To carry out a cleanup operation for a big city with two million people, it is not as simple as setting up a few checkpoints or spot checking a few people. There must be enough staff.

The three shook hands in the temporary conference room and sat on the soft leather sofa. Then Guqi and Shen Dongxin reported on the resettlement of the mountain city.

After the Secret Service moved to Shancheng, it set up the headquarters of No. 29 Luojiawan, Zhonger 2nd Road, Guanyinyan, the former Shancheng Police Training Office and the Youth Art Institute.

These two locations have a total of 1, 3 floors and 1, 2 floors of old-style building, and there is also a large and small bungalow, which is used as a staff office area.

Not far away, Villa No. 19, Luojiawan, No. 2 serves as Dai Chunfeng, Zuozhong's office and official residence, and works with the General Secret Service Branch Office.

This is also impossible. To this day, the Secret Service has developed into a huge intelligence agency with a large number of staff.

In addition, there are countless National Government agencies that have moved to the mountain city, so it is difficult to find a large office space like the Honggong Temple.

Even No. 29 Luojiawan was stolen by Gu Qi and his men from the Jinling Police Department where he retreated to the mountain city. After Bai Wenzhi found out, he shouted that he would go to the top to complain, but in the end he didn't even dare to let go.

In short, at this stage, Dai Chunfeng and Zuo Chong can only work in a luxurious villa covering an area of ​​hundreds of square meters, remotely controlling the daily work of the Secret Service Office.

The old house of a warlord in Maechuan Province, separated from No. 19, has two garden villas, one of which is two-story building, which is set as a reception area.

After opening the walls on both sides, the second floor serves as Dai Chunfeng, the left side of the guests, and the first floor serves as the location for the internal staff to connect external contacts.

Another three-story building with five rooms was converted into a guesthouse for senior field agents to contact the headquarters and request instructions. The first floor is the dining room, and the second floor is the room.

Except for Dai and Zuo, the other places, the residence of the section chief is either purchased by an individual or lives in the new "land C" across the road.

——With the cooperation of the military, the advance personnel destroyed more than a dozen gangs of slaughter brothers around Luojiawan, took over a large number of houses, and finally found a place for the spies.

The guys who robbed the robes would never have thought until they died. The reason for their death was not to bully men and do evil, but to do evil, but because the secret service needed a dormitory.

Zuo Chong nodded after listening to the report of the two people carefully, without expressing any opinions. A bunch of chamber pots is useful when needed, and throwing them when they don’t need them.

He gently patted the handrail of the sofa, and said with a smile: "Laogu, Dongxin, it's a good job. I know that Luojiawan has beautiful scenery and convenient transportation, and it is indeed suitable for use as the headquarters.

However, the periphery of the air defense arrangement should continue to be strengthened. It is best to find a few spare locations in the mountains and outside the city. Once Luojiawan is destroyed by the Japanese, it will be opened immediately to avoid delaying work."

"I understand, Deputy Director."

Guqi leaned forward slightly and replied respectfully.

In fact, he is already doing this, but he didn't say it just now. After all, if you don't leave any omissions, how can you make the superior? You are far-sighted?

Zuo Hung nodded and looked at Chen Dongxin beside him: "Dongxin, go out. I have something to talk to Section Chief Gu. If you go to find Gui Youguang and the others, they are all old brothers. If you have the opportunity, you have to gather more."

"yes."

Chen Dongxin stood up to salute, then turned around and walked out.

Only Zuo Chong and Guqi were left in the conference room. They lit a cigarette with each other and leaned against the sofa and whispered something.

"Has the "muyu" arrived in Shanghai?"

"The Deputy Director of the Report, here, I just received a telegram from the Impermanence Intelligence Team yesterday."

"Well, this is an important step for us to break into the traitor group. We must be cautious and we must never have horizontal contact with Shanghai District and Chen Gongshu."

"Do you think the Shanghai area is unreliable? District Mayor Chen is an old man in the department, so he probably doesn't know?"

"It's hard to draw bones when painting people, but it's hard to know people's face but not the heart. It's nothing wrong to be careful in everything."

Faced with Guqi's problem, Zuo Chong blew the ashes and his eyes were deep.

If he remembers correctly, this old man Chen will surrender to the Japanese in the future. Although he is in Cao's camp and is in the Han Dynasty, there are some things that have to be guarded against.

Why did he bring the headquarter directly under his command to Shanghai to perform tasks and build intelligence points and safe houses just to prepare for that day?

This time when they returned to Jiangcheng, some of the personnel stayed in the Shili Foreign Field and entered the lurking. In order to ensure safety, he was the only one in the secret service that was in charge of the specific situation.

Gu Qi didn't know these things and secretly sighed that the deputy director was indeed meticulous and did not leave any loopholes in his work, so he replied casually.

"I will instruct Wuchang's team. What I am worried about is Muyu. He rarely performs tasks alone. This time he is lurking in the enemy's heart and the pressure is huge, so I am afraid that the boy can't hold on.

Once he is discovered by the Japanese, not only will he not be able to complete the task, but he is also in danger. Why don’t you send more experienced brothers to avoid sacrificing your life in vain?”

"Muyu..."

Zuo Chong repeated these two words, his eyes slowly stopped on the "rice"-shaped tape on the glass, and he answered his question indifferently.

"Every generation has the responsibility of each generation. The task of our generation is to achieve the independence of the country and nation and drive away the invaders.

As long as this goal can be achieved, it is worth paying any price, and all sacrifices are valuable, do you understand?

The reason why I chose Muyu is very simple. Ji Yunqing is cunning by nature and is scared by us. It is difficult for us to trust strangers. He must find an intelligence officer from a martial arts world to rely on.

Moreover, Muyu is young, so Ji Yunqing can relax his vigilance. If he goes there, he might be given directly to the Japanese by the old Wang Badan with the cup of bow and snake shadow.

By the way, let’s talk about the specific process. I was busy with tasks some time ago and didn’t have time to pay attention to the Wuchang group. Whether the lurking of Muyu was smooth, and whether there were any problems."

"I understand."

Guqi had a serious expression and replied seriously: "Everything goes well. As you told me, Ji Yunqing was transferred to Jinling and was detained in a single cell in Tiger Bridge Prison, and cut off contact with the outside world.

Mu Yu was locked in the death row cell before he came in. The charges were for theft, murder, wanted, arrest, interrogation, and judgments were carried out according to fixed procedures, and we did not interfere.

There were reports from newspapers at that time, as well as official documents from the Jinling Police Department, the Police Department, the Ministry of the Interior, and the District Court as proof that Mu Yu could pass the background investigation of the Japanese intelligence agency.

At the same time, in order to make the show true, I spent money to ask the guard to clean up Mu Yu several times on the grounds of seeking revenge by the deceased's family. Ji Yunqing's cell was not far away and saw the other party being beaten with his own eyes.

In an extremely closed and uncommunicated environment, they would occasionally talk and talk about their experiences when they were free, so the two met.

On the day when Jinling City was broken, Mu Yu killed the guard and escaped with the guy at Ji Yunqing's begging, followed him back to Shanghai, and was currently following the target as a guard.

Don't worry, the dead guard tortured the prisoner to death many times, and he deserved the crime. The rest of the insiders were brought to the mountain city to be placed under our surveillance and protection."

"kindness."

Zuo Chong reviewed the process and found no obvious loopholes. He showed a satisfied expression on his face. Ji Yunqing was the ancestor of No. 76. When the group was formed on No. 76, Mu Yu could enter.

Although there is Hasai Ryosuke in Shanghai, it is better to rely on oneself than rely on others. With such an intelligence channel, No. 76 will have no secrets to the Secret Service.

After thinking about Mu Yu's arrangements for a while, Zuo Chong smiled and revealed to Guqi that the secret service was about to be upgraded and that he was the deputy director.

"Congratulations to Deputy Director!"

Gu Qi hurriedly congratulated him, feeling ecstatic. The secret service has always been a radish and a pit. If the people above are not moved, it will be difficult for the people below to get promoted.

He originally thought he would live his life as a section chief, but he didn't expect to be promoted again. The deputy director became the deputy director. Who would he give the vacant position? It was probably him.

Sure enough, Zuo Chong waved his hand and said his arrangement: "Lao Gu, we have worked together for several years, and I clearly understand your abilities and human nature.

When I was the head of the intelligence section, you were the deputy section chief and my steward. You handled the matters of the department in an orderly manner and never competed for merit.

After becoming the head of the intelligence section, I have been working hard and helped me solve many cases, with enough credit and qualifications.

The bureau chief means that I am in charge of the first and second intelligence departments, and are responsible for the two businesses of intelligence and anti-espionage.

It is said that it is better to use cooked food than to use raw materials. I just want you to manage the intelligence business. Do you have the confidence to do your job well?"

Guqi's eyes turned red. He had no background or money. On the day he was squeezed out of the investigation class in Nanchang camp, he was thinking about how to keep the job.

When he arrived at the secret service office, he made up his mind to be a good person. How dare he compete with the director's students, the committee member, the chairman's fellow countryman, the old disciple?

Unexpectedly, it is because of this kind of ungreedy and unoccupied nature that is valued by the deputy director, so that the movement will rise again and again. It is really a fate that makes people beat me!

He stood up on the sofa and saluted seriously, his voice trembling.

"Thank you for your training, I am grateful for my humble position, so I will continue..."

"Hahaha, OK, OK, I've said these words in front of the bureau. You don't have to repeat them, let's talk about them back to the main business."

Zuo Chong teased him, and then his face changed and his smile changed: "Jiangcheng has been rampant in espionage recently. The chairman of the committee asked us to clean up these guys as soon as possible to reduce intelligence loss.

But Jiangcheng has more than two million people, and Japanese spies are hiding in it. How to find them out is a difficult problem. I want to hear your opinions and say with confidence that you don’t have to consider anything else.”

"yes."

Gu Qi straightened his chest and immediately gave the answer: "Bizhi believes that the first step is to block important strategic areas, search each room, identify each person, and strive to not miss one person.

The second step is to strengthen inspections of major traffic roads, docks and stations. All suspicious persons must be arrested first and then examined, so as to limit the scope of activities of Japanese spies so that they cannot inquire everywhere."

Without thinking, he made two concise suggestions. As long as it is strictly implemented, it can effectively curb the secret theft of Japanese spies.

"Yeah, the method is good."

Zuo Chong first expressed his agreement, and then changed the subject: "But it is too targeted. Japanese are not fools. They will definitely pretend or create reasonable reasons when taking action.

It's like finding a special leaf from a large forest, mobilizing all the troops, and you can find it three feet of scraping the ground, but it's a waste of time. So what should we do~”

Guqi was silent, without clues, all he could think of was stupid methods, and dragging the net screening was also the most basic means for most intelligence agencies to crack down on hostile intelligence personnel.

Seeing that he didn't say anything, Zuo Chong was not disappointed. He reached out to take out the lighter and stared at the flames and said lightly: "It seems that we are going to set a fire in Jiangcheng!"
