Kingsman Agent in Film and Television

Under Zhang Anping's order, the entire Beijing-Shanghai area was mobilized and began to search the world for Yang Shuquan.

After all, the Military Intelligence Bureau in the occupied areas lived "underground" and could not rely on the power of the military and police like in the Kuomintang-controlled areas. In order to find the people as quickly and early as possible, the Military Intelligence Bureau had to seek help from gang forces.

Naturally, neither the gang forces in Shanghai nor the gang forces in other regions would refuse such a request.

But after the gang forces were mobilized, the Japanese inevitably received relevant information.

……

Ito Agency.

"Director, we have already found out that gangs in southern Jiangsu, northern Jiangsu, Zhejiang and other places have all been mobilized to search for Yang Shuquan's whereabouts."

After listening to his subordinates' report, Ito Masashi couldn't help but look proud:

"I guessed that Yang Shuquan did not fall into the hands of the Military Control Commission."

The senior agent who had served many agency chiefs asked with lingering interest: "Then we..."

"We'll look for it in a big way, too!"

The agent took the order and asked curiously before leaving: "Director, how did you determine that Yang Shuquan was not a member of the underground party?"

Ito Masashi smiled and said, "I know the underground party very well. They have strict discipline. How could the underground party often hang out in places of entertainment and become the patrons of a bunch of prostitutes?"

"Hurry up and contact all departments, and look for this person in a big way! We must find Yang Shuquan before the Military Control Commission does!"

"Yes!" The agent took the order respectfully. When he turned around and saw the smile on Ito Masashi's face, he thought to himself:
I have arrested many underground party members, how could I not know their nature? I am just giving you a chance to show off!

After his men left, Ito Masashi sat down on a chair and took out a list from the drawer. Looking at the names on the list, whose feet could make Shanghai tremble, his expression gradually became solemn.

After the previous secret search failed, the senior officers of the garrison and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs requested to continue the secret search and make sure to find Yang Shuquan and the secret telegram book.

But he insisted on lifting the ban.

His reason was simple. If Yang Shuquan was a member of the Military Control Commission, then one month would be enough time for him to return to Chongqing safely or send the secret telegram book to Chongqing. There was no need to continue the secret search.

But in fact, his intuition told him that Yang Shuquan should not be a member of the Military Control Commission.

Li Kang, who sent people to beat him up, had been secretly arrested by the Special High Section because of the loss of the secret telegram book, and had suffered torture. He was completely broken. When he saw Li Kang who had been tortured for more than 20 days, he realized that this was most likely Yang Shuquan's revenge on Li Kang.

It was for this reason that Ito Masashi suggested lifting the ban.

Originally, the senior garrison officers and officials of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs wanted to launch a sea raid immediately, but Ito Masashi deliberately delayed the process for a few days.

The reason he delayed was that he wanted to see his opponent's reaction.

His opponents were just as he had expected. Only four days after the ban was lifted, the gang forces in Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces were mobilized.

According to the time calculation, the opponent received the relevant information on the second or third day after the ban was lifted - this was another trap prepared by Ito Masashi. He wanted to see if there was any problem with the core layer of the Japanese army in Shanghai.

From the reaction of the Military Intelligence Bureau, it can be seen that there is no problem with the core layer, but after the ban was lifted, the Military Intelligence Bureau obtained the news, which means that the Military Intelligence Bureau has information channels in the key layers below the core layer, otherwise they would never know this news.

The list in his hand at this time included all the people within the scope of the suspected source of the leak - everyone on the list should not be the source of the leak, but the news happened to be leaked at this level.

But each of the names above has various reasons that make Ito Masashi wary.

He even had an impulse:
I'll just pretend this never happened!
But the "peaceful" state of Takeda Yoshihei appeared in his mind:

The hideous bloody hole on his forehead and the empty eyes filled with resentment...

From Fujita Yoshimasa to Takeda Yoshihei, no head of an agency could leave Shanghai safely. If he turned a blind eye, then the ending of these predecessors would be the same as that of Ito Masashi.

Thinking of this, Ito Masashi's determination became firm:
No matter who you are, I will find you out!

Putting the list back into the drawer, Ito Masashi murmured:

"Then let's... start with these gang forces!"

……

When the Japanese began to mobilize all their manpower to capture Yang Shuquan, Zhang Anping smelled something strange in the air.

Logically speaking, this actually proves the correctness of the information sent by Jiang Sian.

But out of his agent's intuition, Zhang Anping smelled something strange.

"Since the secret search failed, the Japanese should have no choice but to launch a sea hunt. This makes sense logically..."

"But...why did it happen after I took action?"

As the "Fox of the Military Control Commission" in the eyes of the Japanese, there is only one core reason why Zhang Anping can crush his opponents time and time again, and that is being cautious, cautious, and cautious again.

Because all doubts may be traps carefully set by the opponent.

This is what Zhang Anping has always warned himself, and now, this warning has also come into play.

Faced with the Japanese's reasonable pursuit of Yang Shuquan, Zhang Anping, while strictly ordering all departments to speed up the search, secretly began to turn his attention to the gang forces.

Zhang Anping had expected that the various stations of the Military Control Commission would use gang forces, and he also knew that this would be a flaw. Naturally, he had to protect the flaw to avoid unpredictable tragedies.

When his attention was focused on the gang forces, the network that was secretly prepared around this flaw also started to move, so Zhang Anping soon received feedback -

In any city where the Military Control Commission mobilized gang forces, a figure from the local gang would become active and begin to use various methods to investigate who had mobilized these gang forces.

The active member of the Green Gang in Shanghai is a man named Luo Hongwen.

This person is Du Yuesheng's apprentice and has appeared in Zhang Anping's sight before because of the large amount of opium he has.

Given the known channels for opium, the only source that could prevent Zhang Anping's men from determining the source of the opium they had was naturally the Wang Puppet regime and the Japanese.

However, because this person refused the Wang Puppet Government's invitation to hire him as deputy director of the Anti-Opium Department, he was not included in Zhang Anping's list of traitors to be killed.

But because of Zhang Anping's attention, his information was checked very clearly, so after he appeared in Zhang Anping's sight again this time, the people from the Military Control Commission appeared at the Luo family as soon as possible.

The reputation of the Shanghai Military Control Commission was too great. Even Luo Hongwen, whose power had increased greatly recently, did not have the courage to betray the Military Control Commission. Faced with the ulterior motives of the Military Control Commission personnel, he simply admitted that it was the Wang Puppet Regime who instructed him to do so, and said that it was seven days ago.

Zhang Anping was shocked after receiving the news.

Seven days ago, this was exactly when Jiang Sian heard the relevant news!
Is the story about Yang Shuquan stealing the secret telegram book... false?
The other party uses this to identify whether there is a nail or not?

Zhang Anping closed his eyes and began to think.

Or, the Japanese had already implemented his plan of using the code book as bait before him?!
Zhang Anping immediately began a detailed investigation into the matter.

Through investigation, he found out that Li Zeyi's son Li Kang was taken away by the Japanese when the Japanese discovered that the secret telegram book was missing. By asking questions of the people around Li Zeyi and Li Zeyi's servants, he was basically sure that Li Kang was badly beaten by the Japanese. Based on what Li Zeyi inadvertently revealed, it can be judged that Li Kang was basically useless.

In fact, the result of this investigation is not important, because if the Japanese really used the secret telegram book to set up a game, it is normal for Li Zeyi, a frustrated politician in the Beiyang period and a traitor today, to be a pawn in the eyes of the Japanese. Let alone his son Li Kang, even if it was Li Zeyi, the Japanese would not frown. What Zhang Anping really cares about is whether the people sent out to investigate will be targeted.

The result was that the undercover investigators were not targeted.

Although this cannot completely rule out the possibility that Zhang Anping was worried about, it can be largely confirmed that Yang Shuquan stole the secret telegram.

Zhang Anping felt relieved a little, but he still felt uneasy.

After all, the current evidence is enough to show that the Japanese intended to launch a strike against the Military Control Commission by taking advantage of the theft of the secret telegram book.

[We must speed up the search for Yang Shuquan! ]

……

Countless photos and portraits of Yang Shuquan spread rapidly thanks to the joint "efforts" of the Military Control Commission and the Japanese.

Songjiang, Shanghai.

A time-honored teahouse.

After a table of guests left, a waiter quietly stood behind the shopkeeper and said, "Shopkeeper, I just heard that the spies at that table are looking for Yang Shuquan. They also said that our people are looking for him as well. We must find him before our people do."

The shopkeeper asked casually, "Who is it?"

"His name is Yang Shuquan - I've never heard of that name, but when they took out the photo earlier, I took a quick look and found that this person looked very similar to a 'guest' we sent away not long ago."

The shopkeeper was shocked: "Are you sure?"

"The hairstyle is different, but the face is very similar. I suspect it is the same person."

"I see!"

The shopkeeper left the teahouse in the afternoon, secretly went to find someone and told him the news.

The main message he wanted to convey was the following sentence:
"I heard that our people are also looking for him - wasn't he sent away by us?"

"It should be the Shanghai station - I'll ask them later."

After this understanding, a "misunderstanding" was revealed.

……

"Teacher," Li Bohan looked... strange. He told Zhang Anping what he had learned:
"Yang Shuquan is one of our men, but his line is directly under the bureau headquarters. According to the brothers on that line, he was secretly sent to Chongqing a month ago."

Zhang Anping frowned: "Are you sure this is the case?"

Li Bohan said affirmatively: "It is confirmed. The brothers on that line have already identified it and confirmed that the Yang Shuquan in the photo was the one they sent away."

"That's strange!" Zhang Anping's brows were still furrowed - such a big thing, there was no way he was unaware of it at the bureau headquarters.

But since the transportation station affiliated with the bureau headquarters had already confirmed the matter, he naturally had no choice but to send a telegram to the bureau headquarters to inquire.

Li Bohan asked: "Teacher, should we stop here for a while?"

"Don't stop, keep checking."

"Yes."

Although Li Bohan didn't understand Zhang Anping's intention, it did not affect his determination to execute the order.

Zhang Anping's telegram had a very high level in the Military Intelligence Bureau headquarters, and the bureau headquarters submitted it to Lao Dai's desk as soon as it was received.

"What? The Japanese diplomatic secrets have fallen into our hands?"

Looking at this telegram, Dai Chunfeng was also confused. This was a diplomatic secret telegram book, a major matter concerning Japan's diplomacy. If it really fell into his hands, wouldn't it be equivalent to seeing the Japanese foreign policy decisions in his eyes?

But if it really fell into his hands, how could he not know?

But since Zhang Anping stated in the telegram that the person had been sent to Chongqing by the transportation station of the headquarters of the bureau, he immediately arranged for people to investigate to see if there was a problem in any link.

After this investigation, the [oolong incident] was completely exposed.

It turned out that Yang Shuquan was a man of Wei Daming, the telecommunications director of the Military Control Commission, and was a hidden pawn directly under Wei Daming. After a fight between Yang Shuquan and Li Kang, Yang Shuquan had no choice but to give up his undercover work because Li Kang threatened to use the spy system to deal with him. He got the secret diplomatic telegram book and withdrew to Chongqing.

Under normal circumstances, Wei Daming would have realized the importance of the secret telegram book after getting it. Unfortunately, Wei Daming was ordered by Dai Chunfeng to be imprisoned for a month because of the thing in his crotch. After he was released, he had no intention of working and did not personally meet a spy who had lost his significance as a latent agent, so he asked his subordinates to receive Yang Shuquan.

Unexpectedly, this subordinate of his knew nothing about intelligence business. When faced with the diplomatic secret telegram book submitted by Yang Shuquan, he just flipped through it and then threw it into the archive room to collect dust. If it weren't for Zhang Anping's telegram that brought the secret telegram book to light, it would have probably been collected dust until it was burned.

After learning the whole story, Old Dai was almost furious. Such an important secret book was left to collect dust in the archives because of his subordinates' indifference! (This is a true story, Yang Shuquan - Han Shiquan.)
The unlucky Wei Daming was locked up again by Old Dai without saying a word.

……

Shanghai.

Zhang Anping received a call back from the bureau headquarters, saying that the secret code was indeed at the bureau headquarters, but the code was extremely complex and would take time to decipher, and it would be extremely difficult to crack.

"Is that what I'm asking?"

Zhang Anping was confused. He was concerned about whether this book of secret diplomatic telegrams was a bait set by the Japanese, but the telegram sent back by the headquarters was a little confusing to him.

He then sent three telegrams in succession, asking the bureau headquarters to explain the matter clearly.

Old Dai didn't want his nephew to see this joke, so he was vague in his reply. But his nephew sent three telegrams in succession asking the same question. Naturally, he realized that Zhang Anping attached great importance to it, so he had to tell Zhang Anping the whole story and said in the telegram:
This book of diplomatic secrets is real!
In the intelligence department of the National Government, there were scoundrels like Wei Daming, but there were also many talented people. Long before the outbreak of the full-scale war of resistance, the "Secret Cable Translation Office" had already started to decipher Japan's diplomatic secret cables and had achieved some results.

However, with the upgrade of the secret telegram book of the Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the supervision translation work has hit a bottleneck again. But the appearance of this secret telegram book made the Supervision Translation Office ecstatic. The Japanese believed that this secret telegram could not be cracked, but the Supervision Translation Office had already figured out the rules of Japan's diplomatic secret telegrams. With this secret telegram book, they guaranteed that the cracking work would achieve great success in a short period of time!

Looking at the call back from the bureau headquarters, Zhang Anping could only express his deep regret for this misunderstanding...Fuck it!
I didn't expect that because of the unprofessionalism of a spy and the indifference of the head of a telecommunications intelligence agency, such an important secret book was almost lost in the dust.

These things seemed incredible to him, but they could actually happen.

After cursing for a while, Zhang Anping turned his gaze back to the present.

Since the secret telegram is real, the Japanese must confirm one thing:

The Military Control Commission did not obtain this secret telegram book.

Otherwise, once the Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs replaces the secret code book, everything will be in vain.

"Then we must continue to look for Yang Shuquan..."

"Besides, we have to let the Japanese find 'him'!"

In this way, the Japanese can know that there is no problem with the secret book, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs will not replace the new secret book - the secret book in hand can play a greater role. (End of this chapter)
