Chapter 800 With Your Wisdom...

"How is that guy?"

"Will wake up soon, Major."

"Keep an eye on him."

"Hay."

In a daze, Xu Enzeng heard someone talking in Japanese. Although he didn't know what the other party was talking about, the situation was obviously different from what he thought. Zuo Zhong and Ling Sanping were not the ones who confused him.

Opening his eyes vigorously, what caught his eyes was a dark basement with various torture tools and braziers, and three Japanese soldiers stood beside him, and he was tied to a frame.

No, I was captured.

Xu Enzeng was sweating profusely after figuring out the situation, but he couldn't believe it.

The taste of those few pills was exactly the same as the pills that Ling Sanping fed him during the Northeast operation, there would be no mistake.

Could this be a play Zuo Zhong played for himself?

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that it made sense, and immediately cursed: "Bah, Zuo, you have the ability to arrest people, you have the ability to come out, what kind of a hero is he who hides his head and shows his tail, I tell you, I am not afraid."

It's a pity that he didn't say a word. Through the iron gate, he saw a man in Guojun's uniform being dragged away. He seemed to be dead. At the same time, the people coming and going outside were also dressed as Japanese soldiers.

Looking at the people in the room, none of them were familiar faces. Xu Enzeng had read all the files of the secret service's middle and high-level staff and even most of the staff in the headquarters. These Japanese were definitely not among them.

He slowly closed his mouth, his legs were trembling constantly, he seemed to have really been captured by the Japanese, but how did the other party know his identity, he was recuperating in Gongji Hospital and did not tell anyone.

Could it be that bastard Long Wu betrayed himself?
He felt that was the only possibility.

In fact, after many times of self-introduction, even the old man who sweeps the floor knows that there is a director of secret service headquarters in Gongji Hospital.

In short, after accusing Long Wu of revealing his identity, Xu Enzeng began to regret getting too close to the underworld gangsters, and fell into extreme fear.

He knew very well that, as the chief of the Secret Service Headquarters, once he fell into the hands of the Japanese, he would definitely be tortured to extract a confession (to prevent harmony) in order to squeeze out all the intelligence value.

Moreover, in the Hongkou Airport incident, he destroyed the Japanese plan to frame the government. The other party may have hated him long ago, and he would have to peel off his skin if he didn't die this time.

"Xu Sang, hello."

At this time, the Japanese soldiers in the room saw Xu Enzeng waking up, and the major who had spoken before walked slowly to him, greeted him very politely, and then spoke in unproficient Chinese.

"We are all colleagues, so we won't waste time. I want to know the list of hidden personnel of the secret service headquarters in Shanghai, as well as the location of secret contact stations and traffic stations, and the status of weapons and equipment.

In addition, we also need information from the Secret Service, such as the information on Dai Chunfeng and Zuo Zhong. You are both affiliated with the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics, so these information should not be a secret to you.

Life is precious. I hope Xu Sang can seize the opportunity and don't let me down. If you are willing to cooperate, money, beauty, and even the position of the new government in the future will not be a problem. "

After finishing speaking, the man walked to the burning stove, picked up the tongs and poked the red fire, a few sparks flew up and landed in the pepper water beside him, making a sizzling sound.

"No, I say!"

"I said it all!"

Before his voice fell, Xu Enzeng sold out his subordinates with lightning speed, and he told all the information about the Shanghai Station of the Secret Service Headquarters in great detail.

With this information, the Japanese could wipe out the Shanghai station without any effort. One of the secret agents would never have imagined that they were killed by their immediate superiors.

As for the intelligence of the Secret Service, Xu Enzeng gave all the information about Dai Chunfeng and Zuo Zhong, the cases they had handled, and the awards they had received, which was more complete than the government's personnel files.

It can be seen that this guy has been suffocating for a long time, otherwise there is no need to remember so clearly.

Perhaps in order to please the Japanese, he also took the initiative to tell the situation of the investigation offices of the party headquarters in various places. If Minister Chen knew that his good cousin did this, he would probably have the desire to kill him.

The Japanese Major smiled in satisfaction, and ordered his subordinates to record everything Xu Enzeng said, and then gave him the confession to sign and mark.

With a creaking sound, the iron door was opened, and several people walked in unhurriedly. It was Zuo Zhong, Wu Chunyang, Ling Sanping, and Song Minghao with different expressions.

"Hahahaha, long time no see, old Xu."

Zuo Zhong crossed his hips and looked at the stunned Xu Enzeng with a smile on his face. A cold light flashed in his eyes. Facing the interrogation by the Japanese, this bastard did not even resist.

Fortunately, this interrogation was fake. If it was true, it would be fine. The government's intelligence force in Shanghai was wiped out, and the anti-Japanese soldiers on the front line did not know how much they would have to pay.

"You and I."

Xu Enzeng was angry and frightened, he hesitated for a long time, and finally put on a smiley face: "Director Zuo, I knew it was you, look, I've tricked you a little bit, and you're going to show off, come on, put brother down!" .

We're all on our own, don't make it like a life-and-death enemy, it's not good if it affects unity, and Wo Lidou also violated the instructions of the leader. Don't worry, I will never tell others about this matter today. "

In his mouth, his defection to the enemy has turned into trickery, and the Secret Service has turned into a bad guy who breaks the rules. It has to be said that Xu Enzeng has something in terms of turning black and white.

"Chunyang, play the recording for Director Xu."

Zuo Zhong was too lazy to talk nonsense with this guy, so he waved to his side.

"Yes."

Wu Chunyang took out a wire tape recorder from the corner, and after flipping the switch, Xu Enzeng's voice came out through the loudspeaker, and the humiliation shown in his words was disgusting.

"Is there anything else to say, Old Xu, if this recording is heard by the leader, think about your end, whether you go to prison or to the execution ground, I'm afraid Minister Chen can't save you."

Zuo Zhong frightened the other party first, then pointed at him and said with regret: "You are also an old man who has received years of party-state education, how could you join the enemy, Zuo is so disappointed.

For the sake of the fact that you and I went to the Northeast to carry out missions together, Chunyang, put Director Xu down and give him another pleasure.

Reporting back to Jinling, he said that Xu Enzeng, the director of the Secret Service Headquarters, was arrested by the Japanese army, resisted tenaciously, and died heroically. "

After finishing speaking, he sighed again: "Old Xu, you don't need to thank me. I promise to take good care of my sisters-in-law and prevent them from being wronged. In the next life, remember to be an upright Chinese, not a traitor."

Speaking of this, Zuo Zhong turned around and left.

Xu Enzeng suddenly became anxious. He still had a lot of money to spend, and so many unmarried concubines, how could he die here.

As the saying goes, anger starts from the heart, evil grows from the gut, he shouted at Zuo Chong's back.

"Grandpa Zuo, please forgive me this time, I promise that I will never trouble you again in the future, you let me go east, I will never go west, the Secret Service Headquarters will be at your disposal, and I dare not break my promise.

Ling Sanping, tell me something, we were born and died together in the Northeast, you can't just ignore it, don't forget, if I didn't bear the humiliation and sent those women away, you would have been eaten. "

He knew that Ling Sanping was a doctor from the Secret Service and Zuo Zhong's confidant. If the other party was willing to intercede, the Zuo surname would give him some face.

Whoops, there is also a windfall.

Zuo Zhong took a look at Ling Sanping, and said in his heart that he didn't expect that you, a guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes, would learn badly, as expected, those who are close to vermilion are red and those who are close to ink are black.

He pretended to hesitate, and asked, "Doctor Ling, what do you say?"

Ling Sanping frowned, and then heaved a long sigh: "Deputy Director, Director Xu may have some unavoidable difficulties, or give him a chance, so as not to misunderstand that we are setting up a frame.

The war with the Japanese had just begun, and the Secret Service Headquarters had undertaken a lot of intelligence work. If the chief of the first division died here, it might affect the war. "

What a misunderstanding!
You are clearly setting up a trap!
Xu Enzeng gritted his teeth with hatred in his heart, but on the surface he nodded again and again: "Yes, yes, think long-term, Deputy Director Zuo, as long as you let me go, I will give you a generous gift when I return to Jinling.

The brothers present also have the same, and in addition, when encountering today's situation again, Xu will definitely persevere to the end, if he can't do it, let me be hit by thunder and bombs, and I will die!"

He gave favors, swore oaths, made a lot of ugly appearances, and tried his best to escape the catastrophe.

From this point of view, if this guy is really captured by the Japanese, he will 100% surrender to the enemy.

But what does this have to do with Zuo Zhong, the one surnamed Xu is not his son.

Pretending to think about it for a few minutes, Zuo Zhong grinned at the students borrowed from the Qingpu class, motioning them to put Xu Enzeng down, then approached the other party and lowered his voice to talk about the conditions.

The big gift is for the future, this bastard wanted to leave here empty-handed, but there was no door, so the two chatted for a long time under everyone's gaze.

Seeing that Xu Enzeng was like a chameleon, his face turned pale for a while, and then turned red for a while. After the performance changed his face, he rubbed his swollen wrist and asked a question suspiciously.

"Zuo Zhong, you are not lying to me, are you? If there is such a good thing, why doesn't the Secret Service go there by itself?"

"Isn't it because you lost too many manpower in sweeping up the Japanese army strongholds and sanctioning the traitors, otherwise how could it be cheaper for you? Besides, I can bluff you with your wisdom."

Zuo Zhong wrote sincerity on his left face and sincerity on his right face, telling the truth about his current predicament.

Song Minghao and the others next to him didn't know what the deputy director and Xu Enzeng were talking about, but they turned their heads quickly when they heard this, they were afraid of laughing out loud.

After two large-scale operations, the Secret Service's operators in Shanghai did suffer a lot of losses. The problem is that no matter how short they are, they don't need the help of a bunch of trash.

Take the Battle of Jiujiaxu as an example. If it weren't for the people from the Secret Service Headquarters, none of the escaped underground parties would have escaped.

"That's true. With my wisdom, you can't fool me."

Over there, Xu Enzeng actually nodded his head, and then rolled his eyes and made a suggestion: "How about we do this together, and the first and second divisions will join forces, and we will definitely be able to succeed immediately and be invincible."

It is said that one learns one's wisdom, even if what the other party said is true, he is still a little worried, after all, he has been fooled too much.

Oops, this bastard has learned to be smart.

Zuo Chong's heart skipped a beat when he heard the words, and his face immediately changed: "Am I giving you shame? I'm not discussing with you. You have to do this matter, and you have to do it if you don't do it. Don't force me to send the tape to Jinling .”

"No, I'm just asking, asking."

Xu Enzeng gave a dry laugh, cursing inwardly that he is really a dog, if he said he would turn his back on him, he would turn his back on it.

But after thinking about it, Zuo shouldn't be deceiving people in this matter. Setting up to frame himself and setting up to frame the secret service headquarters are two different concepts.

The former is a personal grievance, while the latter is more serious. If you make trouble, you will be accused of being a traitor. It is impossible for someone as smart as the other party to do such an unwise move. It seems that the Secret Service is really short of manpower.

Then should we secretly inform the Japanese of this matter and throw the blame to Zuo Zhong? A poisonous plan flashed through his mind, but he was a little uncertain about paying attention.

After thinking again and again, he lowered his head, laughed like a dog's leg, and said, "I will immediately follow the instructions of Deputy Director Zuo, and wait for my good news."

As Xu Enzeng limped and prepared to leave, he made up his mind to inquire about the news before deciding what to do after going out.

Anyway, I just promised to do it, and didn't say when it would be done. Zuo couldn't go to his territory to confront me.

"Hold on."

Not wanting to reach out Zuo Zhong to stop him, he said with a half smile but not a smile: "Director Xu, do you think I'm a fool, you just call your people here and order them to gather and wait for the order.

It's not that I don't believe you. It's really important. In order to prevent news from leaking, everyone present today is not allowed to leave, even me. I think Director Xu won't mind. "

At the same time, Song Minghao and Wu Chunyang walked to Xu Enzeng's side calmly, took out the PPK in their hands, and seemed to want to test whether it was his mouth or the bullet.

"Don't mind, don't mind."

Xu Enzeng laughed like he was crying, and kept shaking his head in denial: "It's a great honor for Xu to be able to carry out the mission with Deputy Director Zuo. I'm too happy to have time, so why would I have any objections?"

"That's good, come here, connect a secret line from the telephone pole outside, and find a telephone. Hurry up, and don't delay Director Xu's business."

Zuo Zhong hugged his neck tightly, put on a pair of good brothers, then turned to look at the student borrowed from the Qingpu class, smiled deeply, and issued a password ban.

"You guys didn't see or hear anything today, do you understand?"

"Yes, sir."

A man surnamed Li with a brain on his heels, a man surnamed Yu who is good at Steepunk's theorem, and a man surnamed Xu who is proficient in food and cards, and fake public welfare for personal gain replied excitedly.

They didn't know how lucky they were to be seconded to perform tasks under the deputy director's command. According to the instructor Yu Xingle, this is the actual person in charge of the Secret Service.

Once the three of them were spotted by the other party, their future would be bright, and they all secretly made up their minds that no matter who asked about this matter, they would not talk about it, even if they were beaten to death, they would have to keep their mouths shut.

Zuo Zhong didn't know what the three young students were thinking. He did this only to satisfy his own bad taste. In the intelligence industry, these newcomers still have a lot to learn. several years.

On the other side, the spies quickly connected the wires, and Xu Enzeng reluctantly gave orders to his cronies. After making the phone call, he hopped and sat on the interrogation chair, which was not shy at all.

"Hahaha, Old Xu, don't be so unhappy."

Looking at the angry old enemy, Zuo Chong tried to persuade him with a hippie smile, but when he saw that the other party didn't respond, he raised his hand to check his watch, and walked out of the interrogation room swaggeringly.

Xu Enzeng's lungs were about to explode with anger. Zuo didn't believe what he said, and no one was allowed to go out for anything important. It didn't take long before he ran away.

Not a man!

Deceiving too much!

But in the face of the Secret Service staff with live ammunition, he could only suppress his anger, and told himself over and over again in his heart that he must hold back, and then find a way to avenge today's death after getting out of Zuo Zhong's clutches.

Besides, Zuo Zhong left the interrogation room, walked slowly to an office, picked up the phone on the table to call two numbers, and told the opposite side everything to follow the plan in coded words.

After assigning the task, he came to the window and looked at the waterworks that had been blown beyond recognition. He folded his arms and thought for a long time. The setting sun shone into the house a little bit, elongating his back.

When night fell completely, he turned around and walked out of the water plant with firm steps. Whether things were as he thought would be confirmed soon, and he hoped that he guessed correctly.

two hours later.

"biu~~~~"

At the border of the empty concession, a flare suddenly rose in the dark night sky. Amidst the ear-piercing explosion, it illuminated the dilapidated buildings around, and the shadows looked like ghosts.

A car was driving fast on the road. The Japanese Major Yamamoto, who had talked with Denichi Okawachi before, was sitting in the back row, looking out coldly, with lingering worry on his face.

He had just returned from Gongji Hospital, because Xu Enzeng, who was supposed to be recuperating there, disappeared, and even a few spies in charge of surveillance disappeared, leaving no trace at the scene.

Did the other party run away, or was he hijacked?

Will this matter affect the Deep Sea Project?

These two questions lingered in Yamamoto's mind. It didn't matter whether Xu Enzeng ran or not. There were many imperial intelligence personnel in the secret service headquarters and the government, and they knew many things better than the other party.

Instigating rebellion is more considered from a political and military perspective.

The Tokyo side wanted to win over the pro-Japanese and neutral forces in the Guo Party, Xu Enzeng was the best breakthrough, and played the role of an introduction.

After all, even the head of the intelligence agency chose the empire, so it's not hard to imagine what other people would think. At least that Dean Wang had enough reason to attack someone.

Treating the world as chess, all beings as sons, subduing others without fighting, this is the highest level of warfare, and those big men like to conquer the enemy in this way.

The Chinese soldiers on the front line knew that such an important official surrendered to the empire, and their morale would definitely be low, so that the locust army could take the opportunity to gain a greater advantage and occupy the city as soon as possible.

This battle can no longer be fought. From the beginning of July to the present, not only the Chinese have exhausted everything, but the empire is also exhausted.

The country has begun to call on the citizens to reduce their clothing and diet, and each person only eats two meals a day, and the saved materials will be used to support the front line, so as to realize the great cause of His Majesty the Locust.

The so-called three-month conquest of China has also become a big joke. Perhaps it will not take three months, and the empire's finances will go bankrupt before the Republic of China is defeated.

Yamamoto understands that in order to win the war as soon as possible, intelligence is the key.

To be more specific, Zuo Zhong is an opponent that must be eradicated, and the Chinese must understand the fate of going against the empire.

The deep sea plan cannot be missed!

He thought of what Minister Minoru Maeda said before coming to China.

"If a chopstick has a sharp thorn, it must be pulled out as quickly as possible, otherwise it will poke into your skin one day, and it will become red, swollen, and festered inside, until you die of pain."

The meaning of this sentence is obvious. Maeda Minoru is dissatisfied with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Army for allowing Zuo Zhong to sabotage the imperial intelligence operations many times.

Although the army red deer had tried to assassinate the other party before, and had used the strategy of diverting the tiger away from the mountain, and sent two gunmen to intercept it halfway, but the method was too rough, and was killed by Zuo Zhong instead.

The group of non-citizens from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs was even more incompetent. It seemed that many people were lurking in Jinling in the special high school, but they were all timid. They couldn't collect any important information, and they lost the face of the empire.

When Yamamoto came to Shanghai this time, he shouldered the important task of pulling out the thorns for the empire, and nothing else was important.

The car drove a long way in the bumps, and came to a remote side street. He saw a house with lights on not far away, and patted the driver on the shoulder to signal to stop.

After the vehicle came to a complete stop, Yamamoto opened the door and walked into the darkness without making a sound, and quickly disappeared into the night, and the car also turned around and left.

The streets and alleys returned to the calm of the past. A kitten jumped over the wall lightly, but when it landed on the ground, it let out a shrill scream and rushed into the grass, causing the nearby residents to curse loudly.

After a while, a black figure slowly climbed up from the ground, patted the dust off his body and came out from the hiding place, moving towards the bright light furtively.

Walking under the moonlight, Yamamoto observed the movement around him vigilantly. It wasn't him who was suspicious just now. The driver was a member of Okawachi, who was not trustworthy. It was related to the Deep Sea Project, so he couldn't be too cautious.

Quickly coming to a Shikumen house, he pushed the door in without knocking, and strode straight to the living room without any hesitation, as if he was very familiar with this place.

At this time, two middle-aged people, a man and a woman, were eating in the middle of the living room. When they saw Yamamoto who came uninvited, the two continued to chat and laugh, as if nothing had happened.

In this weird atmosphere, Yamamoto walked to the east wall of the living room without squinting, raised his hand and pushed forward vigorously, a secret door half a person's height appeared on the originally smooth wall, and it was dark and he didn't know where it led.

He bent down and got in, and ordered to continue to be vigilant before the secret door closed, and the only sound in the room was the clash of dishes and chopsticks.

In the secret passage, Yamamoto walked for more than ten minutes in the dark to a ladder, climbed to the highest point and knocked on the top of his head. After a burst of noise, bright light shone on his face.

Under the light, a short man in plain clothes stretched out his hand and pulled him up, then stood straight on the spot, bowed deeply and said in Japanese.

"Major."

"Is everything all right?"

"everything is normal."

"Be alert, the enemy will attack at any time."

"Hay."

Yamamoto said a few words to the short man, looked at the two naval version of the Type [-] heavy machine gun①, and smiled with satisfaction.

As long as the Secret Service dares to come, the powerful left-behind machine gun will teach the Chinese a painful lesson, Zuo Zhong, he will definitely catch it!

　① That is, the British Lewis machine gun, which is translated as a reserved machine gun in Japanese.
