Lost and Spy

Chapter 412 The Three Tigers of the Empire
"Shaoyuan, the preparations for the retreat have already begun. I may not come to Shanghai for a long time."

In the office, Dai Li summoned Meng Shaoyuan to him again: "I know that you have deployed the post-retreat work there before, which is very good. We were in Shanghai and resisted the Japanese army for three full months. It broke the Japanese army's fantasy of a quick battle, and gained sympathy from some countries in the world..."

Speaking of this, he himself seemed a little absurd: "Forget it, let's not talk about international sympathy and solidarity, we still have to rely on ourselves. The task of our military command is to keep the gunfire on the battlefield from stopping for a moment. Originally, I should have left Shanghai an hour ago, but I just got some new information, and I want to let you know.

In view of the previous failures of the Japanese special agencies in Shanghai, all parties have attached great importance to it. Based on the information we have so far, both the land and the sea in Japan have begun to change their generals frequently.As for the army, General Hitotsu Matsumoto was transferred from China to establish the "Cloud Mansion" in Shanghai, and cooperated with Yoshio Wantian, the chief of the army's secret service agency, to jointly carry out spy work.

As for the navy, Michiyo Tani Shigehara was dispatched to establish the "Shanghai Research Office", with him as the director, who was actually in charge of all the intelligence work of the navy in Shanghai.As for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Japan, it is Akagi Okinawa, who is very likely to serve as the police chief of the Bureau of Industry and Commerce.These three people are regarded by the Japanese as the three major generals, and it is clear that they are going to do a big job in Shanghai. "

Meng Shaoyuan listened carefully.

Even with the victory, there are still many contradictions among the Japanese Army, Navy, and Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

But the difficulty is that each of the three newcomers is eager to make contributions and is eager to make contributions, so they will work very hard, which is tantamount to adding great difficulties to the latent agents of the military command.

"By the way, do you know what the Japanese called these three people?" Dai Li asked suddenly.

Meng Shaoyuan shook his head.

"Three Tigers of the Empire." Dai Li sneered: "Okay, we have Meng Shaoyuan's 'Seven Tigers of the Army' in our army. Now that the Japanese have the Three Tigers of the Empire, let's see which one is a real tiger and which one is a paper tiger."

Meng Shaoyuan smiled lightly.

What are the three tigers and seven tigers, the living ones are tigers, and the dead ones are not even as good as cats.

"From the outbreak of the Songhu Battle to now, you haven't rested for a day." Dai Li glanced at his capable general: "The original plan was to withdraw you to Chongqing for a short-term repair. They are all set up, and I still want you to teach new students a few lessons, but now it seems that you have to stay in Shanghai for a while.

In view of the changes in the battlefield situation, the military ruled the Shanghai Special Zone and changed it to the Shanghai Latent Zone. Zhou Weilong was still the district chief and Cheng Yiming was the secretary.Your special operations office is an independent unit that operates independently and does not have to ask anyone for instructions.However, I need you to quickly stabilize the situation in Shanghai so that our agents can gain a firm foothold in the early stages.

Shaoyuan, this task is very difficult, people will die, and many people will die.When the Japanese army occupied Shanghai for the first time, they were arrogant and domineering, and they would definitely launch large-scale retaliation against us, especially in the first period of time, when there was a storm, there is a lot of knowledge in how to hold this umbrella well.

At the same time, due to the hard work in the early stage, many of our agents were scattered and lost contact.You have to do everything possible to gather these agents. After investigation, if there is no suspicion, all of them will be under your command and continue to invest in the anti-Japanese work. "

Meng Shaoyuan hesitated for a moment, but still asked: "Where are the suspects?"

"It will be resolved by family law." Dai Li replied without hesitation: "It is better to kill by mistake than let it go! The cruelty and complexity of the struggle against the enemy makes us not allow any mistakes."

"Shaoyuan understands. The three imperial tigers? In Shanghai, I turned them into three cats, dead cats!" Meng Shaoyuan became murderous in an instant:
"Crazy revenge? Mr. Dai, the Japanese have guns in their hands, and we also have guns in our hands. It's just that whose hand speed is faster, whose bullets hit the other side earlier."

Dai Li smiled.

What he admires the most about Meng Shaoyuan is not his brain and reflexes, but his attitude that he is not afraid of you.

No matter how difficult the task you give him is, he never said a bitter word.

"By the way, Shaoyuan, I heard that you met a man named Manako from Huari News?"

"Yes."

Meng Shaoyuan was stunned: "This time I rescued Wan Sibai, I specially spread false information through her, and let the Japanese be fooled."

"Do you know who her father is?"

"Her father?" Meng Shaoyuan suddenly thought of something: "Mr. Dai, don't tell me that he is from the Three Tigers of the Empire?"

"That's right, it's Hitotsu Matsumoto, the person in charge of the 'Cloud Mansion'!"

Meng Shaoyuan was speechless.

Is there really such a coincidence in this world?

I used Manako, knowing that the Japanese would definitely find her there, and I still felt a little guilty about involving a 17-year-old girl.

Now it seems that my worries are completely unnecessary.

"Rintsugu Matsumoto is a China hand." Dai Li's information is very clear: "This person is vigorous and decisive, and once he makes a decision, he will go forward, so he is appreciated by his superiors. Do you know how many years he has lived in Shanghai? 15 years, a full 15 years Years. I was transferred back to China just before.”

In other words, when Manako was born, Matsumoto Rentsugu came to China.

This person is fluent in Chinese, and can even speak Shanghai dialect, which is difficult to distinguish between true and false.

In Shanghai, he had been an opponent of the Chinese authorities for many years, and was called the "Tiger of Shanghai" by the Japanese Army intelligence department.

Hearing this, Meng Shaoyuan moved his nose, which was a kind of disdain.

Originally, with his seniority, it was not an exaggeration for him to control the entire intelligence organization of the Japanese Army in Shanghai. However, this person has always looked down on other Japanese spy organizations and has always refused to have any form of cooperation.On the contrary, he is actually more willing to use the Chinese to do things for him.

In his view, the Chinese are more familiar with China, and it is easier for the Chinese to deal with the Chinese.

At that time, Dai Li grasped his mentality and successfully set up a trap to trick him into taking the bait, which made him pay a heavy price.

Those colleagues who he looked down on in the past took the opportunity to add insult to injury.

Although his boss appreciated him, he was forced to transfer him back to China under pressure.

The first thing he did after returning to China was to send his daughter Manako to China to be with his father Matsumoto Hirokuni, hoping that his daughter would be familiar with China.

Meng Shaoyuan quickly made a basic judgment in his mind:

Manako is not a spy, and she may not even know that her father is a spy.

But this time Matsumoto Hitotsu came back, but it is very likely that Manako will be trained as a spy.

After all, Manako has been in China for two years and is quite familiar with this country.

Perhaps, when sending her to China, Matsumoto Rentsui let Manako get acquainted with China first?
If that's the case, Manako would be someone who could be used.

On the intelligence front, there are only two types of people, those who are useful and those who are not.

On this point, Meng Shaoyuan is particularly outstanding.

Once he finds a valuable person, he will use any means to develop and utilize the last trace of value in him.

There is no self-blame, let alone the so-called sympathy.

"Shaoyuan, when Hitotsu Matsumoto was in Shanghai, he had a complete intelligence network." Dai Li continued: "I have played against him several times, and the first few times were evenly tied. The last time, I defeated him and took out most of his Chinese intelligence network, but I am sure that he still has a hidden intelligence network waiting to be called in Shanghai.

This time when he returns to Shanghai, he will definitely wake up this intelligence network as soon as possible.Make full use of the advantage that the Japanese army is about to occupy Shanghai, and fully recover the intelligence work.Among the so-called three tigers of the empire, I think this person is the most worthy of vigilance.Since you and that Manako know each other, I think you can use some means to see what Matsumoto Nitsusu wants to do. "

The hero sees the same.

Both Meng Shaoyuan and Dai Li thought of using the relationship of Ma Naiko at the same time.

But looking at it now, it is precisely because of the sudden appearance of Matsumoto Rentsugu that he cannot get close to Manako again for the time being.

Matsumoto Rentsugu is not Makoto, as long as he communicates with his daughter, he will soon find out that there is something wrong with his "Rukawa Kaede".

Temporarily alienate for a period of time, and then take the initiative to attack after finding a suitable opportunity.

"Mr. Dai." Meng Shaoyuan said: "Although the three tigers of the empire belong to different departments and the conflicts between the two parties are deep, they will guard against each other and cooperate with each other under the premise of common interests. When they start to cooperate Sometimes, the contradiction between each other is something we can take advantage of.

However, in Shaoyuan's view, even so, they still had to cut off their wings first, and then try to get rid of one of the three tigers. First, it would make their cooperation more difficult. Second, It is also a warning to them. Although Shanghai has fallen, Shanghai is not their Shanghai yet! "

What a big post.

This was Dai Li's first instinct.

Meng Shaoyuan not only wanted to deal with them, but also seemed to be planning to kill one or two of them?
Dai Li didn't say much, and took out a piece of paper: "Shaoyuan, I'm leaving Shanghai. These are some of my senior latent agents in Shanghai. Only I have the specific list. Now I will hand it over to you. If so, you can use these people."

Baby, this is definitely a baby!

Meng Shaoyuan's eyes lit up.

This list is priceless, what is the concept of potential agents directly controlled by Dai Li?And now, Dai Li actually gave this list to himself?

Meng Shaoyuan carefully took over the list as if he had found a treasure!
