My years of espionage

Chapter 1804 Xiao Mian’s safe return is a great achievement!
The next day.

morning.

Special High Section, Section Chief’s Office.

"Is it that 'special' radio?" asked Arao Chihiro.

"Yes, Chief," said Ken'er Nohara. "Last night, this radio was turned on to send a message. According to monitoring, the message lasted for ten minutes."

"Have you locked the location?" asked Tomohiro Arao immediately.

"We can only confirm that the radio station is in the French Concession," said Ken'er Nohara, "and it is always moving. We suspect that the other party is sending the message from a moving vehicle, most likely a car."

"So, the other party knew that we would monitor their location, so they resorted to sending radio messages from the car?" asked Tomohiro Arao.

"I also tend to believe this is the possibility." Nohara Ken'er nodded and said.

"I understand. Keep monitoring closely," said Arao Chihiro.

"Hai."

After Nohara Ken'er left, Arao Chihiro rang the bell and said, "Please ask the director of the Tent to come to my office."

……

"Tell me what you think." Tomohiro Arao said to my grandson Shinta.

"When this 'special' radio station is turned on to send messages, there are only two situations. One is that there is intelligence in Shanghai that needs to be reported to their superiors. The other is that their superiors have a task to assign." My grandson Shinta said.

"Which one do you prefer?" asked Tomohiro Arao.

"The first possibility is more likely." My grandson Shinta thought for a while and said.

"If they were receiving orders from their superiors, for safety reasons, they didn't even need to turn on the radio. As long as they had a radio, they could receive the order, not to mention that they kept the radio on for ten minutes. Of course, it is possible that they received orders or inquiries from their superiors and called back to report the situation immediately."

"However, the possibility of the latter is relatively low." My grandson Shinta said, "Therefore, I am more inclined to believe that this 'special' radio station took the initiative to contact the outside world, most likely to urgently report the situation to its superiors." My grandson Shinta said.

Arao Chihiro thought about it and nodded, "Has anything special happened recently? Or do we have any information that could attract the enemy's attention?"

My grandson Shinta was silent, and for a moment he found it difficult to give an accurate answer to the section chief's question.

"That's it." Arao Chihiro said, "The other party is very smart. He knows how to use a car to move and send messages to avoid our detection. However, he still made a mistake."

He said to my grandson Shinta, "This is the area where Nohara Ken'er has marked the movement of cars. Arrange someone to check which cars were in these areas last night."

……

"Section Chief, this is a lot of work," said Shinta Amano. "The other party is very cunning and obviously thought of this, so they didn't choose to do it late at night when there were many cars on the street yesterday."

"I know this is a stupid method," said Arao Chihiro. "But, investigating radio stations is a process of continuous digging and looking for loopholes. It is a long process of elimination."

"I understand." My grandson Shinta nodded.

Although this method is a stupid one, as long as you calm down and do it, it may be the most direct and effective way.

This time, we counted all the vehicles that appeared in the suspected area during this time period. As long as the enemy is smart enough to adopt this mobile messaging method in the future, as long as we do it a few more times, we can gradually narrow the range of suspicious vehicles and eventually lock on to the target.

"Since you suspect this special radio station belongs to the Special Affairs Department, you should give orders to increase the alert and gather information." Arao Chihiro said, "I'm worried about whether the Special Affairs Department will take any action."

……

On the ship from Shanghai to Nanjing.

Cheng Qianfan was taking a nap in the box.

There was a knock on the door.

"Sir, here are the cocoa and desserts you ordered." The waiter came in and said, "Here are today's newspapers."

Cheng Qianfan nodded and put a banknote on the plate. The waiter thanked him happily and left.

Cheng Qianfan unscrewed the cap of the cocoa syrup, took a sip, picked up a snack with a fork and put it in his mouth, picked up the newspaper and read it, and then his eyes fixed on the newspaper.

"Chongqing declared the Red Party's New Fourth Army a rebel army and abolished the New Fourth Army's designation."

There is also a subtitle: The National Army in Chongqing successfully encircled and suppressed nearly 10,000 New Fourth Army troops, and General Ye Xiyi was arrested!

Cheng Qianfan was horrified. He had just successfully escaped from the New Fourth Army guerrillas yesterday and knew nothing about the situation in the outside world. He never expected to see such horrifying news in the newspaper.

According to the newspaper, more than 10,000 people, including the New Fourth Army headquarters, violated military orders from Chongqing and were surrounded and suppressed by Gu Zhutong's troops of the Third War Zone of the Kuomintang in the Yunling area of ​​Jingxian County, Anhui Province. Nearly 10,000 people fought for more than ten days. Except for a small number who broke through, most of them were annihilated. Among them, the commander of the New Fourth Army, General Ye, was arrested while negotiating with the Kuomintang.

The whereabouts of Deputy Army Commander General Xiang, as well as other senior generals including the Deputy Chief of Staff, Director of the Political Department, and Minister of Organization of the Political Department are unknown.

……

Cheng Qianfan felt a sudden tightness in his chest and his head felt like it was going to explode.

At the end of the newspaper, there was a public statement from Chongqing. Chongqing issued a general order in the name of the National Government Military Commission, declaring the New Fourth Army a "rebel army", revoking the army's number, and handing the commander General Ye over to the Chongqing military court for trial on the grounds of "disobeying military orders". It also issued an arrest warrant for senior New Fourth Army generals including Deputy Commander General Xiang.

If you want to add guilt, there is no excuse!

If you want to add guilt, there is no excuse!

Cheng Qianfan clenched his fists and gritted his teeth. He looked at the boundless river through the small round window. His mind went blank for a moment.

……

Yihe Road.

Chu Mansion.

Chu Mingyu put down the documents in his hand and stared at Cheng Qianfan.

Facing Chu Mingyu's gaze, Cheng Qianfan faced it calmly at first, but eventually he showed a look of shame and lowered his head.

"Uncle Chu, do you know everything?" Cheng Qianfan asked.

"Cai Tuan rebelled. We only know that you were also defeated. We don't know anything else." Liu Xia said quickly.

Then, she looked at Chu Mingyu's face and said, "Minister, Secretary Cheng has returned safely now. It's good that he's back. It's good that he's back."

"Coming back is naturally a good thing, but the problem is..." Chu Mingyu looked at Cheng Qianfan, "Qianfan, tell me."

"Yes."

……

No. 19, Luojiawan, Chongqing.

Dai Chunfeng put down the telegram in his hand and shook his head slightly.

This is a telegram just sent by the Shanghai Special Intelligence Department. It was a secret telegram drafted by Cheng Qianfan himself and handed over to Zhou Ru to send.

"This kid just sent a telegram like this earlier." Dai Chunfeng said, "This 'Blue Bird'."

"Sha Seng also said in the telegram that it was Xiao Mian who asked him to send the telegram in advance as a witness." Qi Wu said, "I think what Xiao Mian said makes sense. He knows that the director trusts him and has never doubted this. However, we must follow the rules."

"You always say good things about him." Dai Chunfeng said with a smile.

Then, his expression became serious, "Xiao Mian, this is an unprovoked disaster. So many supplies, weapons and ammunition have been given to the Red Party for nothing."

Dai Chunfeng was not angry about Cheng Qianfan using so many supplies, weapons and ammunition to redeem himself from the New Fourth Army. Although he felt sorry for those supplies and ammunition, Dai Chunfeng knew very well that the value of a fellow villager and junior brother like him could not be compared with a few supplies.

In fact, after he received Zhong Guohao's telegram and learned that Cheng Qianfan had encountered such a misfortune, he was shocked at first.

After learning that Cheng Qianfan had escaped danger, Dai Chunfeng heaved a sigh of relief, "The Red Party is abominable, they almost killed one of my generals!"

As long as people are fine, that's fine.

Of course, because the matter involved the Red Party, Dai Chunfeng recognized and appreciated the cautious and serious attitude that Cheng Qianfan showed afterwards.

……

"Xiao Mian was right. What he did was the only correct thing to do." Qi Wu said, "He is too important. I believe he must be very aware of this and tried his best to find a way to escape from danger successfully."

"Xiao Mian's safe return is in itself a great achievement for himself!" Dai Chunfeng made the final decision on the matter.

"The Director is clear!" Qi Wu said, shaking his head. "Of course, the Red Party got so many supplies and weapons and ammunition this time, and they were all prepared by Xiao Mian for the Loyal and Patriotic Army. It's infuriating to think about it."

Dai Chunfeng didn't say anything, but sat in a chair, frowning and thinking.

"Qi Wu." Dai Chunfeng said.

"Seat."

"I'm thinking about something." Dai Chunfeng's expression was extremely serious. "Why was it the Red Party that instigated Cai Tuan to rebel, and not us?"

Qi Wu's face changed, and he immediately understood what Dai Chunfeng meant.

"It is our fault." Qi Wu said with a serious expression, "I will immediately arrange for them to focus on strengthening the infiltration and subversion work on the pacification army."

"No, it's useless to make a fuss. You still don't take it seriously enough." Dai Chunfeng stood up and said, "Notice everyone to have a meeting in an hour. The results of the subversion work are not good. We need to review it and make it a top priority."

"Yes!"

……

"Councilor Cheng almost fell into the hands of the enemy, but fortunately, he was smart and courageous, and he successfully broke out of the enemy's capture." Liu Xia clapped her hands and said, "He also got rid of the enemy's search and successfully returned to Nanjing."

She looked at Cheng Qianfan and said with a smile, "Counselor Cheng is both civil and military, and he is indeed worthy of being praised by Mr. Wang as a hero."

Cheng Qianfan looked at Liu Xia. If he had not had a secret meeting and communication with Liu Xia before meeting Chu Mingyu, he would have subconsciously thought that Liu Xia was mocking him.

"That's right." Chu Mingyu was slightly stunned at first, then he understood the deep meaning of Liu Xia's words. He couldn't help but nodded slightly, "Mr. Wang was right about you, Qianfan, you didn't disappoint me."

"My nephew was not able to detect the Red Bandits' conspiracy in time, and was not able to thwart the enemy's conspiracy in time." Cheng Qianfan said with a sad face, "As a result, the Cai group rebelled, and Major Hu and his comrades fell into the hands of the bandits. My nephew is really ashamed and uneasy."

"Secretary Cheng, don't blame yourself too much." Liu Xia said, "The enemy is too cunning. It's hard to guard against this kind of thing."

"What's more..." She handed a cup of tea to Cheng Qianfan, "If we must hold someone accountable for this kind of thing, it is the relevant intelligence department's negligence that led to the unfortunate misfortune of the special envoy team, including you."

"Liu Xia is right." Chu Mingyu nodded slightly. "Since the incident has happened, whoever is responsible should take responsibility. If it is not your responsibility, you don't need to blame yourself too much."

"Yes, Uncle Chu." Cheng Qianfan nodded, "Nephew understands."

"Minister, I still have some things to deal with. If there is nothing else, I will leave." Liu Xia glanced at Chu Mingyu and said.

"Go ahead." Chu Mingyu nodded.

……

After Liu Xia went out, Cheng Qianfan closed the door.

His face showed a mixture of shame, uneasiness and shock, "Uncle Chu, I have embarrassed you. I almost thought I would never see you again."

Chu Mingyu didn't say anything. He just looked at Cheng Qianfan and sighed after a while, "It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back."

"My nephew has brought shame to my uncle." Cheng Qianfan continued.

Chu Mingyu waved his hand and shook his head slowly.

He looked at Cheng Qianfan, and a relieved smile suddenly appeared on his face, "Qianfan."

"Uncle Chu."

"I may be angry, but you know, I am more relieved." Chu Mingyu said.

"Nephew doesn't understand." Cheng Qianfan asked in a daze.

"You are my nephew, the grandson of Mr. Gu, and the young talent that Mr. Wang is looking forward to." Chu Mingyu said, "Cheng Qianfan, who has suffered such a disaster, is right to think of spending money to redeem himself. It is the best thing that he can come back safely."

"Qianfan." He looked at Cheng Qianfan and said, "Remember, people like us are the hope of the country. For us, it is most important to remain useful. This is also the blessing and hope of the country."

Chu Mingyu walked around the desk and patted Cheng Qianfan on the shoulder. "Remember, our lives do not belong to ourselves, but to this country that has suffered so many disasters. The country needs us to live and needs us to better fight for this great nation with a history of 5,000 years throughout our lives."

Cheng Qianfan's expression became more serious and stern, with an extremely solemn light flashing in his eyes. He nodded vigorously, "Nephew knows!"

"Your safe return is the greatest victory! Take a good rest for a few days." Chu Mingyu looked at Cheng Qianfan with satisfaction, "Mr. Wang may meet you in a few days to present you with a medal for your heroic performance in combat."

Cheng Qianfan was stunned for a moment when he heard this, but his eyes suddenly lit up, "Yes!"

Mr. Wang has high hopes for Youjia. He is a young talent from a family of revolutionary heroes who once wrote a message in person. He is an absolute confidant of Minister Chu Mingyu. It is absolutely impossible for him to have the stain of being captured. Senator Cheng’s heroic exploits must be the only explanation for this incident!
……

Cheng Qianfan left Chu Mingyu's office and walked to Liu Xia's office.

"Congratulations, Councillor Cheng." Liu Xia said with a smile, "Maybe there will be good news in a few days."

"I'm so ashamed. I'm so ashamed." Cheng Qianfan said with a laugh.

He unceremoniously opened a cabinet, took out the candied fruits and other snacks that Liu Xia had placed inside, and ate them without hesitation.

"You're welcome." Liu Xia glared at Cheng Qianfan unhappily.

"What belongs to Sister Xia is mine. Why should I be polite?" Cheng Qianfan said with a smile.

As he spoke, he picked up the newspaper on the table and happened to see a large-scale report on Chongqing's annihilation of the New Fourth Army in Jiangnan on the official newspaper of the Wang Puppet Regime in Nanjing.
