Lost and Spy

Chapter 1259 Situation Reversal
In 1940, the national campaign against Wang reached its climax.

What Wang Jingwei and Wanfu pointed out!
But obviously, he is not ready to turn back on this road.

The official establishment of the puppet government has entered the countdown.

The list of each department has been confirmed.

Among them, Meng Bofeng served as the Minister of Justice of the Wang puppet regime.

People from all walks of life were strongly criticized, and the public opinion was raging.

The National Party and the Labor Party once again joined forces to expose the nature of the puppet regime.

Wang Jingwei was unmoved.

On the road of treason, he has gone further and further.

In this year, the situation in Shanghai has also undergone tremendous changes.

At the end of December 1939, Douglas, the general director of the Shanghai Public Settlement Industry Bureau, had expired and resigned to return to China.

Sir Claes, an Englishman, took his place as the new general manager.

And this Sir Klass is a well-known compromiser.

He was afraid of the Japanese, and what worried him most was the entry of Japanese troops into the International Settlement.

Therefore, on the basis of his predecessor, he has repeatedly made concessions to the Japanese side.

On January 1940, 1, just a few days after he took office, he signed the "Sixteen Concession Articles" with the Japanese side.

These sixteen articles stipulated that the public concession should ensure neutrality, ensure the safety of Japanese people's lives and property in the concession, and that major personnel changes in the concession should be carried out in advance.

Even within the Board of Directors of the Bureau of the Ministry of Industry, there were serious disagreements that Sir Klass had seriously betrayed the interests of the International Settlement.

But Klaas was unmoved.

His famous speech is "As long as the security and independence of the concession can be ensured, the loss of my personal reputation is completely acceptable."

The emergence of Klass and the "Sixteen Points" suddenly made the situation in the Shanghai area of ​​the Military Control Bureau more severe.

As we all know, the reason why the Shanghai District was able to thrive in the public concessions was due to its good relationship with the Ministry of Industry and Commerce.

From the directors of the Board of Directors of the Ministry of Industry and Commerce, to the president, to the chief of police, the Shanghai District has always maintained a "friendship" based on the relationship of interests with them.

Now, that friendship is facing serious challenges.

On January 1, under the personal supervision of Claes, the patrol room raided a military command contact point in Jing'an Temple and arrested four intelligence agents.

On January 1, Ding Mocun and Li Shiqun visited the Bureau of the Ministry of Industry and were personally received by Klass.

On January 1, the most severe scene happened:
Song Deng, captain of the Second Intelligence Brigade of the Shanghai District of the Military Control Bureau, was arrested by the police station.

At that time, his men were about to resist, but Song Deng stopped him and willingly got into the police car.

Song Deng's decision was very sensible.

Under such special circumstances, it is inappropriate to have a direct confrontation with the Ministry of Industry and the Bureau.

The summit will come up with a solution.

And before he decided to catch him without a fight, he told the detective who came to arrest him:
"I can go with you, but you can't come into my office, otherwise I can't guarantee what will happen."

From the detectives to the patrols, they all took the benefits of the military command, and they also knew that these agents were a group of desperadoes, and terrible things would happen if they were pressed.

Besides, their mission this time was only to arrest Song Deng, so they agreed to his request.

Song Deng's subordinates destroyed all the documents in time and notified the headquarters immediately.

Wu Jingyi, secretary of the Shanghai District of the Military Control Bureau, immediately ordered all ministries to enter an emergency combat state, so the contact point remained silent, and contact was not allowed unless it was a special event.

On January 1, when Agent No. 20 was trying to arrest the military commander, a shootout broke out between the two sides.

The patrol room arrived and immediately arrested two military command agents, but let all the No. 76 agents go.

The advantages and disadvantages of the public concessions reversed.

More and more agents of No. 76 and the Intelligence Headquarters openly appeared in the International Settlement, stalking, kidnapping, and assassinating military agents in the downtown area in broad daylight.

And this act has been the acquiescence of the Bureau of Industry and Commerce.

The situation suddenly became more serious for the convenience of the military.

On the night of January 1, Meng Shaoyuan, head of the Shanghai District of the Military Control Bureau, returned to Shanghai.

From the first minute of his return, everyone knows:
Going to do it!

Young Master Meng has always only taken advantage of it, when will he be willing to suffer?
Even Song Deng, the backbone of the "Hangzhou Clan" he cultivated by himself, was arrested. How could he swallow this breath?

"Is that Klaas?"

Meng Shaoyuan simply listened to the intelligence report.

Klaas was not familiar with him, and he didn't expect him to make such a move for himself.

Originally, after Douglas resigned, he decided to wait until the new general manager came to power, and then visit them again to increase their mutual affection.

But at present, the situation is completely different from what I imagined.

"How is Song Deng?" This was what Meng Shaoyuan was most concerned about.

"I'm still being held in custody. Someone is taking care of me inside, so I'm fine for the time being." Wu Jingyi said, "However, No. 76 is already discussing the extradition of Song Deng with the Bureau of the Ministry of Industry. Song Deng is the captain of the intelligence brigade and has a lot of core secrets. Once Li Shiqun and the others succeed, then things will be troublesome, I considered robbing them by force, but the Ministry of Industry and the Bureau even asked the British army for reinforcements."

"Damn it, let's put the secrets away for now." Meng Shaoyuan scolded: "Song Deng is my favorite general. If he openly arrests my favorite general, where will I put my face?"

Wu Jingyi was taken aback for a moment, but then she couldn't laugh or cry.

The situation couldn't get any more serious, but this young master still cares about his own face?

"My face, Shanghai's face." Meng Shaoyuan sneered: "I'm afraid the lord doesn't know my great reputation? No, I have to talk to him."

"It's done, young master, when are you still bragging?" Wu Jingyi wanted to grab him by the ear and scold him: "What should we do next?"

"What to do? What to do, what to do." Meng Shaoyuan blurted out without even thinking: "Dare to come on No. 76, call me, and beat me to the fucking death! Tell our familiar detectives that this is an extraordinary period. It belongs to my friend, Meng Shaoyuan, stand firm. If you think that I, Meng Shaoyuan, can’t do it, you can listen to Lord Jazz’s arrest, but you will no longer be my friend in the future!”

Upon hearing this, Wu Jingyi's heart relaxed for no reason.

No matter what problems arise, as long as there is this young master, there is nothing that cannot be solved.

And judging by his appearance, it seems that he is about to make a big move.

"Our ancestors said that the ceremony should be preceded by the soldiers." Meng Shaoyuan continued, "Inform Klass that I want to meet with him."

"What about security?" Wu Jingyi frowned: "What if Klaas detains you?"

"First, he didn't dare to detain him. If he really wanted to do this, he would directly tear himself apart from the national government. For this knight, he didn't want to see it." Meng Shaoyuan seemed confident: "Of course, we Special circumstances must also be considered, you can arrange it for me, if the worst situation really happens when I meet the old guy, you can do it for me!"
