Chapter 307
On February 4, the frightened Wang Jingwei reached a preliminary agreement with the Japanese. Under the protection of the Japanese and French local police, Wang Jingwei boarded a Japanese freighter, left Vietnam, and set off for Shanghai.
At this point, Chongqing could no longer stop his traitorous behavior, and the formation of a puppet government was inevitable.
.
Chongqing.
Jiangdong, who had been lying in bed for more than half a month, was finally able to leave the hospital.
Although his injuries have not healed yet, Jiang Dong really can no longer lie calmly on the hospital bed. Jincheng, Gaoping and Lu'an have a lot of work waiting for his instructions every day.
"Brigadier, are we going back to Shanxi now?" Zhao Erniu's injury is almost healed, but he still has a slight limp when walking.
"Haha, don't worry, there is one more thing to do before leaving!" Jiang Dong said mysteriously.
"oh!"
Under the strict protection of the military commander, Jiang Dong and his party returned to the Ding family.
After dinner that day, Jiang Dong and Ding Beifeng sat together in the small study.
"Is the matter confirmed?" Jiang Dong asked.
"Well..." Ding Beifeng nodded solemnly,
"Zilin has been watching him for several days, and we are sure it is them."
Jiang Dong's mouth showed a sneer,
"Haha... They can wait for me but they can't wait any longer. I will return to Shanxi after this matter is resolved.
The foreigners in Jincheng can't wait any longer. If we go back later, we might miss out on some big business, which is not cost-effective."
"What are you going to do? Will our people come directly?" Ding Beifeng asked,
"I can also spare enough manpower here to ensure that nothing goes wrong."
Jiang Dong lowered his head and thought for a while before speaking,
"We don't need to do it ourselves, just give it as a gift and we can just go and take a look."
Ding Beifeng frowned and said nothing.
"I'm going to make a call!" Jiang Dong stood up.
.
"Hey, Director Dai? I'm Jiang Dong. I have a gift for the military commander. I wonder if you are interested?"
.
Half an hour later, Dai Li, dressed in casual clothes, walked into Ding's house accompanied by his adjutant.
Without too many pleasantries, he got straight to the point and asked:
"I have prepared two action teams. Where are the people?"
Jiang Dong glanced at Ding Beifeng and said to Dai Li with a smile:
"Director Dai, please be patient, the people are already being targeted and they won't be able to escape for a while.
Let’s sit down and have a cup of tea first and discuss things before we set off.”
Dai Li looked confused,
"What are you talking about?"
Jiang Dong blew the tea foam gently and asked without raising his head:
"Director Dai has caught his own ghost, but the assassination incident half a month ago is not over yet for me. Director Dai knows what role Zhongtong played in it, right?"
Dai Li's brows twitched and his eyes narrowed unconsciously.
"The commission also knew about this matter, but he didn't speak out, and those of us who work on the matter couldn't take any action.
Although the Central Unification thing was done in an unethical manner, it actually wasn't too wrong after a closer look. Based on my understanding of the Chairman, he would not punish Er Chen.
Brother Jiang is almost healed from his injuries now, so let’s just let this matter go. There will be no results if we continue to dwell on it, but it will make the relationship between the two parties even more unhappy."
After Jiang Dong glanced at Dai Li, he lowered his head and continued to play with the tea cup.
The Central Command and the Military Command have always had conflicts, but Dai Li's words were so high-sounding that Jiang Dong cursed an old fox in his heart.
Although Zhongtong was just an accomplice, the two-gun Qiu Jiangdong would not let him change the story so easily. After thinking for a while, he said:
"Director Dai, the clues are in our hands now, and today I informed the military commander, not the central commander. You should have seen my attitude clearly."
Dai Li shook his head slightly,
"Brother Jiang, if you have anything to say, please say it directly."
"The Ding family and I want to cooperate with the military!"
"How to cooperate..."
"In the future, the Ding family will ask the military commander to take care of their business on the road. The Ding family is willing to fully cooperate with matters that the military commander cannot handle, such as the current matter."
"Okay!" Dai Li said with a smile on his face.
"I can take care of you, but I can't help directly. In that case, I won't be able to explain it to the Chairman."
"good!"
The three of them looked at each other and smiled, then picked up the tea cups and took a sip.
Such cooperation is mutually beneficial to both parties.
With the intervention of the military commander, the Ding family's obstacles in material transportation and other aspects can be easily eliminated.
Other forces on the road will also sell the army a little thinly, and will not have direct conflicts of interest with the Ding family.
What Dai Li valued most was power. The Ding family only had thousands of troops on the streets of Chongqing. After the cooperation between the two parties, the military commanders suddenly added thousands of grassroots intelligence personnel.
Although he can win over some people who don't cooperate with the Ding family through the temptation of money and the coercion of power, this is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and there is no guarantee.
The two parties cooperated, and the Ding family took the initiative to provide intelligence, thus saving time and effort for military control.
The two parties talked for about 20 minutes and finalized some details of cooperation.
Half an hour later, Dai Li put down his teacup and asked:
"Where is the person? Let's resolve this matter tonight!"
After several missions ended in failure, Dai Li urgently needed a great success to restore the Chairman's trust in the military commander, so he was a little anxious.
Ding Beifeng stood up,
"Let's go, I'll take you there!"
.
.
"This area is full of shantytowns, and some of the poorer boat workers live there. Because it is far away from the city, my people did not think of it when we first investigated."
On the way, Ding Beifeng patiently told Jiang Dong and Dai Li the discovery process.
“We searched the entire city two or three times, but still found nothing, so we finally turned our attention to the outside of the city.
It was a coincidence that a worker of the Ding family lived in this shantytown, and he also participated in the search for the Japanese assassination team.
This worker discovered a strange phenomenon when he went home and went out every day. There was a shantytown more than 20 meters away from his home. Every day, people delivered a lot of food to this yard, but there was never a single person in sight.
Any movement.
Combined with the search operations during this period, the workers immediately thought of the Japanese assassination squad.
After receiving the information, I asked Zi Lin to follow the purchaser for four or five days, and then asked the neighbors around the shack, and finally confirmed that the people hiding inside were Japanese."
Dai Li nodded repeatedly after hearing this.
This is why he is willing to cooperate with the Ding family. The Ding family's influence at the grassroots level is too extensive.
Dozens of people stopped their cars about a kilometer away from the shanty town and started walking.
It was around 10:30 in the evening, and the poor people living in the shanty town had already turned off the lights and went to bed. The shanty town was shrouded in darkness, peaceful but unsettling.
"Master Ding!"
Ding Zilin walked out of the darkness.
"Is there nothing unusual?" Ding Beifeng asked.
"No! Another person came out today and bought a big basket of food, and then there was no movement."
"Brothers, lead the military commander up!"
Chapter completed!
