Chapter 830

Time flies by, and before you know it, it is New Year's Day in 1938, but there is no joyful atmosphere of the New Year inside and outside Chang City, and the streets and alleys are full of pessimistic emotions.

At the end of December, the Japanese army in central China, which had invaded Shanghai and Jinling, completed its repairs. The 12th Division crossed Changjiang northward, and entered the Outang and Mingguang lines on the east bank of the Chihe River in Anhui Province to stand by.

The 10th Division of the Japanese Army in North China crossed the Yellow River south from Qingcheng and Jiyang in Shandong Province, and arrived at Jining and Daocheng after occupying Jicheng.

In order to open up the two battlefields in the north and the south, the Japanese base camp is expected to mobilize about 8 people from 3 divisions, 2 brigades, and 24 detachments into the battlefield.

The strategic purpose is to implement a north-south advance, first capture Xucheng, a strategically important place in East China, then take Zhengcheng in Henan Province to the west along the Longhai Railway, and then capture Changcheng in the south along the Pinghan Railway.

In contrast, Li Changguan, the commander of the fifth theater of the Guojun Army, commanded more than 60 divisions and 3 brigades of about 60 people, and concentrated the main force in the area north of Xucheng to prevent the Japanese army from invading the south on the northern front. The southern section of the Jinpu Railway confronted the Japanese army.

For this battle, the entire government and even the common people had no hope at all. The loss of Jinling made everyone angry and at the same time feel powerless.

The Songhu battlefield and capital defense battle where the elite gathered were all defeated. Facing the menacing Japanese army, the battle of Xucheng might not be much better.

On the morning of New Year's Day, the national government issued a "Message to Comrades and Compatriots", stating that during the current national crisis, all agencies will not have holidays, and a New Year group meeting will be held in the auditorium of the government of Hubei Province.

As representatives of the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics and the Secret Service, Dai Chunfeng and Zuo Zhong put on military uniforms that they seldom have the opportunity to wear, mixed into the crowd and entered the venue, standing in the corner and whispering.

"At the end of the day, have you read the Ta Kung Pao editorial this morning? Now the country's future is uncertain, war is imminent, and the people's hearts are in turmoil."

I saw Dai Chunfeng put on a look of concern for the country and the people, looked at the lively venue and the bustling participants, frowned and said something.

Zuo Zhong was a little surprised. What kind of madness is Lao Dai? There are only the two of them here, and there are no reporters present. No matter how nice the words are, no one will know.

It is undeniable that Lao Dai has contributed to the anti-Japanese cause, but in the eyes of the other party, anti-Japanese is just a means to please the bald head, not an end, so why did he suddenly say such a thing.

He turned his mind sharply, glanced around and nodded lightly: "Teacher Qi, the students have seen it, and public opinion is very pessimistic about Guo Jun's combat effectiveness, and they think this battle will be defeated.

Those literati also said that the current national crisis cannot be congratulated, and the crisis of the war cannot be discussed. At this moment, the Chinese nation has only one major event, and that is to save the nation and survive.

It is suggested that the national government put the international situation out of its calculations and not rely on it. It must turn the whole country into a military camp and a fortress, and unite with the underground party to defeat the Japanese with its own strength. "

Zuo Zhong felt that the last sentence of the editorial might have stung Baldhead and Dai Chunfeng. In the eyes of the other party, the Japanese were just a disease of scabies, and the underground party was the real threat.

So he changed the subject and pretended to be disdainful: "Students think this is a scholar's opinion, let's not talk about it, let's take the Red Russian Aid China Air Force as an example, isn't it also a kind of international aid.

Why do they turn a blind eye to this? I'm afraid it's just a sour talk. At this stage, the international aggression and anti-aggression front has not been formed, and we must seek more friends. "

"Hmph, ridiculous!"

Dai Chunfeng sneered: "Those who say such things are despicable. At present, peace-loving countries are thinking of their own interests, and may not be able to help us, but this is only temporary.

They use this reason to exert pressure, nothing more than wanting the government to provide more supplies and more funds for the Northwest.

In the end, after clearing out the Japanese intelligence personnel in Jiangcheng, the Secret Service should adjust the focus of its work, give priority to obtaining military intelligence from the Japanese army in North China, East China, and Central China, and respond to the frontal battlefield in Xucheng.

Let some people see that without the underground party, the party can still win battles and save China. This is the task assigned by the chairman of the committee. It must not be slack. "

"is teacher."

Zuo Zhong replied respectfully, this was originally the duty of the Secret Service and a soldier, and he would do the same without old Dai reminding him.

At this time, the main entrance of the auditorium was opened, and the bald head, Wang, and a group of high-level members of the Guo Party slowly walked in, and the auditorium suddenly burst into applause.

Walking with a bald head, he smiled and raised his hand to the participants, full of style, while Wang behind him kept his face dark all the time, vividly interpreting what it means to be in harmony with one another.

With the arrival of the Lord, after a series of tedious procedures, a certain boss who presided over the meeting solemnly invited the bald head to give a speech under the spotlight of the reporters.

Seeing this, Dai Chunfeng immediately walked to the front row of the crowd, concentrating on listening to instructions. It was obvious that Zuo Zhong was in the same line as him in terms of flattery.

"Comrades, fellow countrymen."

The bald man on the stage began to give his speech, with a very serious expression: "Last New Year's Day we celebrated in front of the former President's Mausoleum, but now we are forced to leave Jinling and move westward to Changcheng.

Some people think that China is about to sink. I don't think so. In the past, China did not make great sacrifices, so there were not many achievements and the foundation was not solid.

After several months of fighting last year, it was only when Geming looked like it. Countless passionate men threw their heads and sprinkled their blood to die for the country, and hundreds of senior military officers died heroically, which can be called tragic. "

Clearing his throat, he said in a low tone, "To sum up the past failures, I think it's mainly because we were not united enough and criticized each other.

As long as we are united as one, the Japanese will have nothing to fear. If the army and the people work together, the enemy will be driven away by us sooner or later. "

Under the stage, one by one, who could be seen as an elite of the party and the country, applauded desperately after listening, flattering each other with a volume that was neither high nor low but just enough for the bald head to hear.

"Today's China really cannot afford to appoint a leader. With such a leader leading us, the future of the country will not be hopeless."

Good boy, this flattery is good enough, I have met my peers.

Not to be outdone, Zuo Zhong's acting skills erupted in an instant, and he looked at the bald head with a kind of admiration in a kind of excitement, and in admiration, his eyes turned red, even his palms were red.

Maybe it was because of his hard-working performance, or maybe it was because he completed the mission in Shanghai well, but the bald head nodded at him before slowly leaving the stage, and there were a lot of jealous people for a while.

Amidst the chants of Ge Gong (not a typo), Wang also took the stage to address the people present. One of the words was quite black and humorous, which made people laugh.

This person said that the Japanese army used Chinese money to feed Chinese soldiers to kill Chinese people, which is not poisonous enough, but using Chinese money to feed Chinese literati to govern Chinese people is the end of poison.

The government must resolutely eliminate those who are not determined, to ensure that the patriotism and the courage to resist aggression will not waver, and will never admit defeat even if it is the last soldier.

The audience expressed their agreement after hearing the words, flattering wildly according to the rules, the atmosphere was enthusiastic and the expressions were exaggerated, as if the front line had won a big victory.

Seeing Mr. Wang's impassioned and urinating speech, Zuo Zhong showed indifference. Who would have thought that in this year, the other party would leave Hanoi and send out the notorious pornography.

Too lazy to listen to nonsense, he turned around and left the venue directly. If it hadn't been for Lao Dai's repeated requests, he would never have wasted half a day to attend such a meaningless meeting.

The investigation on Gu Zhongya and the restaurant selling raw fish in Bern has entered a critical stage, and the case will make a breakthrough at any time, so he must keep an eye on it in the office.

Walking out of the venue quickly, Zuo Zhong lowered his head and got into the car, said something to the driver in the driver's seat and went back, then closed his eyes and slowly fell into a dream.

Half an hour later, the car drove into the yard at No. 33 Pingyue Road. Just as the gate was closed, Gui Youguang, dressed in plain clothes, stepped forward to open the car door and said hello.

"Deputy Director"

"kindness."

Zuo Zhong got out of the car, looked up at the sky, and stretched himself: "How is the situation?"

"Gu Zhongya lives in the No. [-] Hospital of Jiangcheng, surrounded by the police station and people sent by Minister Song to protect him, we can't get close."

Gui Youguang replied softly: "Based on the current monitoring results, most of the people who came to visit were his friends in the army and Minister Song's subordinates, and there was nothing suspicious about their identities.

The phone calls made and received by the other party were all normal exchanges. I handed over the specific recordings and text records to Wu Chunyang for cross-comparison with the information from Switzerland. "

"Well, come with me."

It was within Zuo Zhong's expectation that the monitoring of Gu Zhongya had no results. If he had been caught so easily, the other party would have been discovered by the Secret Service long ago, and there was no need to wait until today.

Moreover, the staff of the national government and the military committee must undergo regular inspections, and Gu Zhongya's smooth pass shows that this person's identity disguise is perfect.

It may be difficult for them to find the other party's flaws in this aspect. Now it depends on whether Switzerland can find evidence of Gu Zhongya's collusion with the Japanese.

Zuo Zhong walked in front, followed by Gui Youguang. The two walked quickly to the meeting room. The guard at the door quickly reached out and pushed the door open, and a strong smell of smoke came oncoming.

In the room, the spies were bustling with activity, some looked down to look up information, and some held microphones and communicated loudly with the opposite party.

"Yamashiro, contact the Tokyo team immediately and ask them to investigate a person named Toshio Akihara from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, yes, immediately!"

Gu Qi's voice was hoarse, his eyes were red, he hung up the phone with one hand on his hips, and the other hand loosened the buttons on his collar panting heavily, but with a smile on his face.

"What's the matter, old man?"

Zuo Zhong was puzzled, why was his old partner so excited, and who was Toshio Akihara? Could it be a spy related to Gu Zhongya?

Gucci, who was in a state of excitement, turned his head when he heard the voice, walked over hastily, and whispered a report in his ear.

"Berne has discovered that according to your instructions, the consulate staff managed to find a group photo of the staff of the Japanese embassy ten years ago, and handed it to the staff of the Golden Key restaurant for identification.

It was determined by many people that the mysterious person who had dinner with Gu Zhongya was Toshio Akihara, who was the third-class counselor of the Japanese embassy at the time.

Thanks to the fact that there are not many people of the yellow race in the area, and Toshio Akihara stayed in Bern for a long time, otherwise the witnesses would not remember it so clearly.

The problem now is that there is no other party's file in the database. If you want to find out the details of the other party, you need the assistance of Tokyo personnel.

Deputy Director, I think you can ask Shangfeng for instructions to formally investigate Gu Zhongya. The report submitted by the other party after returning home did not mention this matter. If it wasn't for the ghost in his heart, why didn't he report it. "

Toshio Akihara,

Ministry of Foreign Affairs,
Bern ten years ago......

Hearing Gu Qi's words, Zuo Zhong quickly made a decision. Without saying anything, he went to He Yijun's office and locked the door behind him, asking him to send a report to the left behind personnel in Shanghai.

The intelligence personnel of the Secret Service in Tokyo are only Fu Ling and others, and their strength is still very weak. Since the target is from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, it is time to use Hase Ryosuke's trump card.
