The secret war is silent

Luo Yao handed the secret code in his hand to Li Delin, but he kept it secret, saying that the secret code was a test product.

Li Delin understood instantly.

After ordering people to evaluate Luo Yao's secret code, they determined that the secret code in Luo Yao's hands was much more complicated than the one they were using now, and it was completely different from the one they were using now.

Li Delin immediately made up his mind.

Although doing so will bring some confusion to the already formulated combat plans and deployments, the benefits are foreseeable.

As long as he can be given 5 to 10 days, he can initially do it. According to his prediction and research, the Japanese army's attack is most likely to be on a certain day from the end of April to the beginning of May.

The specific day is not yet known.

But there is still time.

Being the commander-in-chief of an army is stressful, but the most taboo thing for a commander-in-chief is indecision.

Indecisiveness leads to disaster.

Luo Yao probably had a lot to do with taking out this secret code. Just because he had the guts to do it, Li Delin thought he could do it. Besides, he also has his own judgment. He is not a general who is influenced by emotions. .

In addition, there are still many things to do here to minimize the impact of this incident on Luo Yao.

Lao Li is not the kind of person who is willing to kill the donkey. Even for the sake of cooperation below, he knows that he cannot do this.

Although Luo Yao handed over a secret code compiled by himself to Li Delin without asking for instructions and reporting, which is very problematic, he himself has a certain degree of independent power.

But put another way, if it was taken out at Li Delin's request, this would be a different situation.

However, Luo Yao's approach was slightly concealed from the Second Team of the Attendant's Office, while he reported the truth to Dai Yunong using a secret message.

The reason is simple. He has not yet reached the stage where he can break away from the military command and free himself from Dai Yunong.

Any doubt would cause huge and irreparable losses to himself, so he would not gamble.

He can make arbitrary decisions but report the truth afterwards.

In Dai Yunong's eyes, this is an image of someone who is both courageous and extremely loyal to him.

He couldn't guarantee that there was no one from Dai Yunong around Li Delin, and then he reported him secretly.

After returning to Wuchang Pavilion, Luo Yao immediately drafted two telegrams, one for the old man and one for Dai Yunong.

The contents of the two documents are roughly the same, but the statements are slightly different. Of course, they use special encryption codes.

The Japanese's level of deciphering the national army's secret code is roughly the same as that of the military technical department, but not much higher.

The military technical room's level of deciphering the Japanese army's secret codes is generally up to the brigade level, which is equivalent to the national army division and brigade level. The Japanese army may be slightly higher. The details are not clear, but it is not easy to go up to higher-level codes. decipher.

"Team Leader Fang, our personnel have arrived. May I ask about their work arrangements?" Wei Zhiming came in and asked.

"For work assignments and arrangements, please contact Deputy Team Leader Yan. In addition, Counselor Wei, I need some manpower to do some simple health and service work for us. They must be people with no problems, regardless of gender." Luo Yao proposed. New requirements.

"how many people?"

"Not too many, just five or six. They just take care of our lives, but are allowed to enter the work area." Luo Yao explained.

"Okay, this is easy to do." Wei Zhiming nodded. Once entering a wartime state, sleeping is a luxury. There is no time to take care of both. Luo Yao's request is very reasonable.

Avoid wasting time. Missing the detection of a secret message may very well determine the outcome of a battle. Wei Zhiming knows this truth.

…

Yang Fan walked around Laohekou Town and had lunch outside before buying some local food and returning to Wuchang Pavilion.

Come see Luo Yao as soon as possible.

He wanted to find Luo Yao to report on his contacts with the Laohekou Intelligence Team of the Military Command's Northern Hubei Branch at the Hubei Hotel.

"Team leader, this person's name is Xiang Hongyun. He stayed at the Hubei Hotel two weeks ago. Because this person's whereabouts were good, Team Leader Jiang from the Laohekou Intelligence Team sent someone to monitor and follow him. After this person went through the accommodation procedures, he went In a carpentry shop on Puning Street, the next night, Wei Yongcheng, director of the Political Department of the Fifth War Zone, came to see him in makeup..."

"Later, Xiang Hongyun checked out of the room the next day and moved into Wuchang Pavilion..."

"Is this the Wuchang Pavilion where we live now?"

"Yes."

Wuchang Pavilion has been requisitioned by the 401 Group as a temporary residence, and the man has obviously been moved to another place.

"Then where are people now?"

"The Investigation Office of the Fifth War Zone transferred him. They don't know the specific location. However, Xiang Hongyun, who is qualified, has a woman he likes in Puning Street. He even brought the woman back the night he checked in. Team Jiang The chief has investigated the woman, her surname is Zhang, she is not a native of Laohekou, she is a foreigner, her identity and background are unknown, she has disappeared now, she probably lives with this Xiang Hongyun," Yang Fan said.

"So, if you find this woman, you can find Xiang Hongyun's hiding place?" Luo Yao tapped his fingers lightly on the table and narrowed his eyes slightly.

"What's Wei Yongcheng's background?"

"Li Delin's confidant is also the intelligence leader of the Gui clan." Yang Fan naturally asked all the questions. He was familiar with Luo Yao's style of doing things, meticulous in everything, and especially fond of picking out details, and he was deeply influenced by it.

Luo Yao groaned, they were all foreigners with unfamiliar faces. Although there were many people like him in Laohekou, it was difficult for them to carry out secret investigations in Laohekou due to their status.

At least there is no way to avoid the eyes and ears of the Gui intelligence agency.

Of course, one cannot be overly cautious. It has only been less than a year since the Fifth War Zone moved to Laohekou.

Moreover, if Yang Fan always runs out, it will definitely attract other people's attention, and he will have to find a name to allow him to freely enter and leave the Wuchang Pavilion anytime and anywhere.

"In this way, I will find a name so that you can enter and leave the Wuchang Pavilion freely without being suspected." Luo Yao said, "Can you help me find this woman named Zhang?"

"Team leader, I don't dare say this. I don't even know what that woman looks like now. Besides, this is not our place."

"Where's the Laohekou group?"

"I've definitely looked for it, but they have limited manpower..."

"Will the Hubei Hotel be exposed?" Luo Yao said.

"It's been exposed. Why hasn't the Gui family moved?" Yang Fan asked strangely.

"You are stupid. If you move the Hubei Hotel, doesn't that mean you are telling us that the Laohekou group has been exposed? If you don't move, you will be placed there and I will know every move you make. If you move, you will withdraw or let someone else come in? Luo Yao said angrily.

Yang Fan nodded. As long as this team is here, the military commander will not send a second team over. Isn't this a waste of manpower?

What's more, the military commander's main focus is on infiltration and intelligence work into Japanese-occupied areas, as well as guerrilla operations behind enemy lines.

"How much information does the Laohekou team know about the internal situation of the five war zones?" Luo Yao continued to ask.

"Team Leader Jiang said that the passers-by of the Fifth War Zone are mainly concentrated in the 77th Army. Not only do many middle- and senior-level officers sympathize with the CCP, they even have close relations with the CCP and fund its supplies, ammunition and radio stations." Yang Fan said.

Luo Yao nodded. He had also heard about this. It was not a secret. However, the old man did not dare to touch these generals who held military power. After all, under the premise that the Kuomintang and the Communist Party worked together to fight the war, these people were not pawns. , has the right to speak.

If he is a minor character, if he is caught and killed, then forget it.

If a general who fought on the front line against Japan were killed now and charged with "collaborating with the Communists", I guarantee that public opinion would be boiling.

Breaking one's word is not a good name.

"Well, okay, I understand, go about your business first." Luo Yao nodded slightly, waved his hand, and gave an order.

"yes."

Luo Yao was thinking about finding a legitimate excuse for Yang Fan to freely enter and leave the Wuchang Pavilion, when suddenly there was a knock on the door.

"Please come in."

Two people opened the door and came in.

Luo Yao looked up and saw that Yang Si and Jia Bingwen were coming together.

These two are the backbone of this mission, and Luo Yao's plan is also clear to them, and they have long discussed it in private.

Absolute heartfelt femur.

For two people to come together, there must be something important. Luo Yao couldn't help but pay attention to it.

"Lao Yan, Lao Yang, what's the matter?"

"Team leader, the deputy eye team and I discovered a small situation. I don't know if we are too neurotic or if there is a real problem." Jia Bingwen sat down and spoke first.

"what's the situation?"

"We found that the radio frequency used by the Japanese Eleventh Army has a downward trend in the past three days. Although this trend is not obvious, I feel that this trend is a bit unusual!" Yang Si (Yan Peidong) said.

Jia Bingwen handed Lu Yao two graphs at the same time. One was this month’s statistical curve chart of secret telecom communications of the 11th Army of the Japanese Army in Central China in April, and the other was the statistics of secret telecom communications last month. Jia Binwen was doing statistical analysis. , this is his job.

The chart shows that starting from the beginning of April, there was a small peak in the secret communication between the 11th Japanese Army in Central China and its subordinate units. It is understandable that after the new officer took office, after the small peak, there was a relative trend of flattening, and then it reached Around the 23rd, the curve began to decline.

The other one is from March. The curve is relatively stable, and even if there are fluctuations, they are not very big.

And the corresponding reasons for the fluctuations can be found, because many secret communications have been intercepted and deciphered, and some situations can be basically understood.

This job was originally the job of the intelligence department of the General Staff Office.

It was down 30 percent year-on-year in three days.

"Team leader, on the surface, there is nothing abnormal in the communication, but based on the contents of the coded messages we deciphered, we found that there are duplications."

Yang Si handed over a stack of telegram manuscripts and spread them on Luo Yao's desk.

"Team leader, look, this is a message sent by the Ikeda Detachment of the Sixth Division of the Japanese Army to the subordinate Third Infantry Brigade on the 17th of this month, asking them if a batch of ammunition and fuel supplies for them have arrived. Look at this It was a message sent on the 25th, which is basically the same. During this period, the Third Infantry Brigade had neither combat missions nor marching missions, and ammunition and fuel were basically not consumed. Why did it have to be carried out multiple times?" Yang Si said. Pointing at the contents of the message, he analyzed it.

"And these two telegrams..."

"After we discovered this situation, we sorted through the deciphered messages for nearly half a month and found that there were many similarities and inconsistencies."

It stands to reason that with a war approaching, communications will only strengthen, not weaken. There will only be a window period before the war begins, usually not too long, when regular communications will not stop. Judging from these deciphered contents, it is also Not like a regular routine communication...
