Lost and Spy

Chapter 394 Colonel Director
Dai Li looked haggard.

It is rare that the Battle of Sending Shanghai broke out until now.

Every time I see him, Director Dai is always full of energy, you don't want to see a trace of fatigue in him.

But now?
He was under too much pressure, especially with the war going on like this.

"My [-] troops have begun to withdraw westward." As soon as he opened his mouth, Dai Li said: "The situation is not optimistic, and our military follow-up work has also begun to be fully carried out. Shaoyuan, I don't worry about your place. While completing your own mission, Also give assistance to other ministries.”

"Understood, Mr. Dai."

Dai Li sighed softly: "Millions of troops fought fiercely in Shanghai. The soldiers shed blood and laid bones. Although our army suffered heavy casualties, it held back the pace of the Japanese army and bought enough time to retreat to the southwest. The Japanese army captured Shanghai. , sooner or later we will attack Nanjing, now it is all right, our foundation has finally been temporarily preserved.

Shaoyuan, I think the general evacuation order will come down in the near future. We can't control the affairs of the army. We have to do our own affairs well.The Jiangsu-Zhejiang Special Forces have suffered heavy casualties in the bloody battle so far, but after the fall of Shanghai, they will play a more important role, relying on people and land to disperse the guerrillas.Some people are lurking. Regarding this lurking, I want to hear how your special detachment does it? "

Meng Shaoyuan was immediately embarrassed.

This so-called "special detachment" was made by him in nonsense. Of course, he knew that Dai Li would know about it sooner or later, but he didn't expect to know the existence of the "special detachment" in such a short time.

Now that I asked, Meng Shaoyuan had nothing to hide: "Mr. Dai, my people, except for those who dispersed the guerrillas, are mainly divided into two parts, one part is active in the public concession, and the other part insists on the Japanese control. Latent in the area.

We are familiar with Shanghai and have a lot of social connections. We can use these connections to show our talents and work as workers, shop assistants, vendors, and elementary school teachers in the Japanese-controlled areas.In addition, after the Japanese occupied Shanghai, it was absolutely necessary to rebuild the police system and government departments. We can send people to break in, and these people can play miraculous effects when needed.

My idea is very simple, the Japanese can occupy Shanghai, but they can't let them completely control Shanghai.The situation in Shanghai is complicated, and they can't touch the public concession. I want to make the public concession our public concession.And in the Japanese-controlled area, I want to make them restless for a moment, and I will know everything they do by the next day at the latest! "

"Okay, Meng Shaoyuan! Okay!" Dai Li suddenly raised his voice: "This kind of domineering is what we lack the most. Meng Shaoyuan!"

"To!"

"I announce that, except for the deputy chief of the Operations Section, I will remove you from all positions and set up the Military Command Special Operations Office, and appoint you as the colonel director of the Military Command Special Operations Office. No change. You are only responsible to me!"

"Yes!"

Dai Li gave himself the greatest right!

In a word, he changed from a lieutenant colonel to a colonel. It seems that this major general is just around the corner.Although this official title is not the real official title recorded in the file, it is at least a colonel.

More importantly, from now on, except for Dai Li, Meng Shaoyuan no longer needs to ask anyone for instructions and reports, and no longer needs to look at anyone's face or worry about anyone's thoughts.

"Also." Dai Li continued: "Since the Special Operations Office has been established, your special detachment is justified. Just don't use the banner of the Jiangsu-Zhejiang Rangers anymore. The Jiangsu-Zhejiang Rangers are under the jurisdiction of the Jiangsu-Zhejiang Rangers Committee. There are a total of fourteen committee members, although I am the secretary-general, but in name any committee member can issue combat orders to you."

Well, it is.

This Jiangsu-Zhejiang Special Committee, in order to mobilize all available forces to carry out the War of Resistance, Du Yuesheng and Zhang Xiaolin from the Green Gang are all members.

Even though they are interested and will not interfere with the specific operations of the Special Forces, it is justifiable if they really want to give you orders.

Now it's all right, Meng Shaoyuan can openly form his own military force, and the number of people in this force is completely unlimited.

In other words, as long as it is for the sake of the war of resistance, Meng Shaoyuan can do whatever he wants.

In the past, the masters of the "Supervisory Office", as well as the nominal bosses Zhou Weilong and Cheng Yiming, are now removed from this last restriction.

This arrangement shows Dai Li's unlimited trust in Meng Shaoyuan. From another perspective, he can see his strong determination to resist the war.

"Meng Shaoyuan, I believe in you." Dai Li's expression became serious: "Today I solemnly tell you that since you took up this position, there will be no Japanese or traitor that you cannot kill. If you hear that one day , I, Dai Li, have defected to the enemy, and your bullets can hit my head at any time!"

"Mr. Dai." Meng Shaoyuan straightened his waist: "Meng Shaoyuan swears to you today that the Japanese army, Japanese special forces and traitors will be killed! If Meng Shaoyuan retreats before the battle, please kill him!"

"Let's go and do it." Dai Li crossed his fingers, put them on his chest, and remained silent for a while: "I heard that you had some trouble with the Ministry of Industry in the International Settlement. What's going on?"

Know this too?
Reported by Wu Jingyi?

From the first day he came to Shanghai as the director of the Supervision Office, Meng Shaoyuan knew that Wu Jingyi was arranged by Dai Li to protect him.

"It's not Wu Jingyi." Dai Li seemed to see what he was thinking: "Wu Jingyi was lured over by you, and it's perfunctory to report any intelligence now. Don't think you have people everywhere, I also have insiders in the Bureau of the Ministry of Industry."

what?
Mr. Dai, you should have said it earlier. If you want to have an inside line in the Bureau of the Ministry of Industry, how much effort can I save?
"Mr. Dai, who is your insider? Can you introduce me?"

"You don't come here." Dai Li stared: "When did your insider report to me? Huh? Say, what kind of crazy did you go to the Ministry of Industry and Commerce? If this is not done well, it will become an international dispute. , I won’t be able to keep you at that time.”

"Mr. Dai." Meng Shaoyuan hesitated for a moment: "Xie Jinyuan is still fighting in the Sixing Warehouse. Our scattered brothers are trying to find ways to enter the concession. This is their only way of life, so I want to help them open this way. gone."

Dai Li became silent for a moment.

After a while, he said slowly: "Understood, but I warn you, don't go too far, otherwise, it will be difficult to clean up."

After finishing speaking, he sneered again: "Those foreigners have gone too far. My wounded soldiers went through untold hardships and entered the concession, but they were kicked out one by one. It would be good to teach them a lesson."

Meng Shaoyuan immediately cheered up: "Yes, I understand."

"Don't be too careless." Dai Li sneered again: "You, Meng Shaoyuan, were domineering and arrogant in the International Settlement, and even used patrols to arrest the Japanese? The Japanese are already very dissatisfied with you. Now they have the advantage in Shanghai. Well, they are putting pressure on the Bureau of the Ministry of Industry, do you know what they are going to do? They want to change the police chief of the Bureau of the Ministry of Industry!"

what?
Meng Shaoyuan almost cried out.

Change the Commissioner of Police?

joke!

How long had Sinclair been in this position?

How much money did I spend on him?
This book was never returned.

"I don't know what the relationship between Police Commissioner Sinclair and you is. He defends you everywhere." Dai Li's tone was a little dignified: "There was a conflict between the Chinese and Japanese spies, and the Japanese spies were arrested. You, Meng Shaoyuan, were traveling. The long patrol guards protect you, you are so majestic. Why don't I see you arrange some patrol guards for me to stand guard at the door of my office?"

Meng Shaoyuan laughed "hehe".

"Don't laugh." Dai Li said in a bad mood, "It's all right now, the Japanese have noticed this, and have lodged a protest to the Board of Directors of the Ministry of Industry through diplomatic channels, and conducted secret consultations. Do you want to know the details?"

"Think, think." Meng Shaoyuan flattered quickly: "Mr. Dai, I thought I knew everything in the International Settlement, but Jiang is still old and hot. I don't know anything about such an important situation."

"You don't want to do this with me. You have a face in front of you, and another face in your back." Dai Li snorted: "Seeing that the war is about to end, Shanghai will fall into the hands of the Japanese. Those people always backed down in front of the Japanese. Now in such a situation, they will definitely consider carefully the Japanese request.

The Japanese proposed that Sinclair, the former police chief, be allowed to join the board of directors of the Ministry of Industry and Commerce as the director of the donation department. This is a typical ups and downs.Moreover, the Japanese side will give him a certain amount of economic compensation every year.As for the post of Police Commissioner, the Japanese side will propose a candidate to take up the post. "

This is not going to work, this is absolutely not going to work.

This is not kidding what is that doing?
If a Japanese was really appointed as the chief of the police force, then all the previous efforts of Meng Shaoyuan would come to naught.More importantly, the future military system of action in the International Settlement will be completely destroyed.

"Aren't you fighting with the Ministry of Industry?" Dai Li said slowly, "In this case, let's see if there is any way to stop this proposal from being implemented."

"I'm afraid it will be difficult." Meng Shaoyuan thought about it carefully: "The Ministry of Industry may agree to my other requests, but the position of chief of police seems to be a must for the Japanese, and those people in the Ministry of Industry cannot withstand the pressure. However, please rest assured, Mr. Dai, if the worst happens, I will definitely have a way to solve it."

Dai Li nodded slightly: "Whatever you want to do, just let go and do it. The war has been fought like this. Seeing that the country is about to perish, our military command is more unscrupulous. I will stand up for the sky falling!"

"With Mr. Dai's words, Shao Yuan has nothing to worry about."
