Kingsman Agent in Film and Television
Chapter 606: Shihao's Plan to Clean Up the Concession
When the Military Intelligence Bureau suffered huge losses, Ito was actually not in a very good mood.
Because the results of last night's attack came out.
The secret agencies in various places basically had certain gains. Even if they did not catch anyone, they seized a large number of counterfeit banknotes that were identical to the real ones - because the serial numbers of these coins had not even been printed!
But in Shanghai, no, it should be said that in the entire Beijing-Shanghai area of the Military Control Commission, the Japanese spy agencies did not achieve any results, and even the number of counterfeit banknotes seized was very few.
Although this was expected, when the result was laid before him, Ito still felt depressed and aggrieved.
But bad news always comes one after another. Just when Ito had recovered his good mood, a phone call made him angry again.
"Head of the agency, Ming Lou, the director of the Economic Department under the Economic Committee... is missing."
"Missing?"
"We have found out. Last night, after Ming Lou dismissed all the servants, the three brothers disappeared. We have sealed off the Ming family's villa. Judging from the things left at the scene, they left in a hurry and left behind a lot of property."
"I see."
After hanging up the phone, Ito gasped heavily. After trying to hold it back again and again, he finally couldn't hold it back anymore. He kicked the desk away and started smashing it as if to vent his anger.
He could never have imagined that Minglou was actually a member of the Nationalist Government!
He once worked in the municipal government, and later in the Secret Service Committee. He later took the initiative to quit and joined the Nanjing government, where he was promoted to director - it turned out that he was a mole!
"Baga! You bastards deserve to have your stomachs slashed!"
"Deputy Director of the Special Affairs Committee, you have proven one thing after another that it is the Military Control Commission - what kind of mess have you left me!"
From Zhang Anping to Li Lixing, and then to Minglou, they are all members of the Military Control Commission! (Li Lixing mysteriously disappeared. In the eyes of the Japanese, he was undoubtedly evacuated after his identity was exposed.)
An angry Ito asked into the air:
"How many more KMT members are hiding in the secret service system? How many more KMT members are hiding in the Nanjing government?!"
Naturally, no one answered his question.
A feeling of powerlessness spread throughout his body. He did not hope to make his opponent Zhang Shihao taste the heart-wrenching defeat this time, but he really wanted to prove himself with a victory over Zhang Shihao.
What a pity that both ends are empty!
The Shanghai military unification is like a slippery loach. Even if you catch it, you will watch it slip away.
After panting for a while, Ito finally regained control of his emotions.
"Just a taste, just a taste..."
After comforting himself several times, he simply stopped thinking about the bad things.
Now that his cards are exposed, there is no need to get entangled with the mastermind behind the smuggling network any further!
The cancer must be removed eventually!
When he wanted to make a call, he noticed that the phone had been smashed to pieces because the table had just been kicked away. He straightened his military uniform and walked out of the office, signaling his secretary to send someone to clean up the office immediately. After the phone was replaced, Ito picked up the phone and dialed:
"Sir, I'm going to start finishing!"
……
The situation in Shanghai changed suddenly.
A group of spies who had never "shown their faces" suddenly appeared. After they temporarily took control of the middle and lower-level command of the Ito Agency, the Ito Agency suddenly showed its fangs and began a large-scale arrest operation.
But this time, they arrested not Chinese but Japanese!
One after another, Japanese were arrested by the Ito Agency, many of whom were well-known figures in the business community, but the Ito Agency began to arrest people without any scruples.
Even though the Security Command repeatedly and angrily ordered to stop the operation, the Ito Agency continued to do its own thing and remained unmoved.
The headquarters was annoyed and immediately held a meeting, intending to forcibly remove Ito Masashi from his post.
But while the meeting was going on, the head of the gendarmerie headquarters broke in with a team of gendarmes.
The armed gendarmes dispersed, and an unexpected person appeared in the headquarters' meeting room.
Fatty!
Tu Feiyuan took over the magpie's nest. After occupying everyone, he threw several documents on the table without saying a word and said lightly:
"Commit suicide and apologize."
After saying that, he stood up indifferently and left the dead silent meeting room.
The Japanese officers in the conference room picked up the documents tremblingly. The officers who did not see their names breathed a sigh of relief, while the officers whose names were on the list all looked dejected.
If Fatty hadn't shown up, they might have been able to struggle, but the appearance of this newly promoted Army General and Aviation Director left them with no chance of even struggling.
There were more than a dozen participants in this meeting, but less than half of them finally walked out of the conference room. The rest of them never walked out alive, accompanied by heart-wrenching wails and the stench of blood.
"Everyone," said Tobiko softly, with his back to the officer who had managed to get out of the conference room:
"Decadence is a thing of the past. I hope such a tragedy will never happen again."
This group of arrogant Japanese officers were silent as a cicada, not even daring to breathe.
Because none of them is clean, they were lucky enough not to appear on the list only because they cannot be killed anymore, otherwise none of them would be innocent if they were all killed!
Tu Feiyuan didn't take it seriously and continued, "Shanghai is the blood supply pipeline of the empire. Your duty is to guard this pipeline. I hope you will encourage yourselves!"
After saying that, Feiyuan left. Only after he left did they secretly breathe a sigh of relief.
Someone looked at the stench-filled conference room with a complicated expression and dared not speak for a long time.
The smuggling network's most powerful supporter behind the scenes was naturally the Japanese senior officers of the Shanghai Garrison Command. When these people had to commit suicide to apologize, the smuggling network became a lamb to be slaughtered for Ito.
Sure enough, in the next few days, Ito's agency easily arrested countless people without encountering any resistance. The smuggling network that once left him helpless was uprooted in just a few days.
Since then, there has been no large-scale smuggling force in Shanghai.
……
Military base.
The information brought by Zhang Anping solved Wang Tianfeng's doubts that had lasted for several days.
"The fat guy is here!"
“No wonder the Japanese can act in a unified manner everywhere.”
In the past, Dohyo was one of the top talents in the Japanese spy world. He had been to Shanghai before, but he did not have the status he has now, and he was even fooled by Jiang Sian once.
But now this person's identity is no longer what it used to be. He is the principal of the NCO academy, the director of aviation, and holds the title of Army General. He really has the ability to overturn the table.
"After this incident, only one in ten smuggling networks will survive. The situation in Anping and Shanghai will probably be difficult in the future."
Wang Tianfeng rarely showed a look of worry.
After the fall of Shanghai, the Military Control Commission’s flourishing period can be divided into three eras.
The first stage: the era of Deputy Director No. 76 Zhang Anping;
The second stage: the era of Heiji Okamoto;
The third stage: the era of intertwined interests with smuggling networks.
During these three stages, the essence of the victory of the Shanghai Military Control Commission was that it had the right to speak among the enemies. The plan to deal with the Military Control Commission was formulated by the members of the Military Control Commission themselves, so it was impossible for them to win.
But now the advantages of the Military Control Commission have gradually disappeared. Jiang Sian has completely withdrawn from the spy system, and the smuggling network that was used as a disguise by the Military Control Commission has now been completely cleared out. Although there is still Gu Shenyan, the director of the Security Bureau, the power of the Shanghai spy agency has been massively enhanced. The Security Bureau, which already had a weak presence, will no longer have a presence at all.
It was precisely for this reason that Wang Tianfeng rarely showed a look of worry.
These words made Zhang Anping feel a little embarrassed - Lao Wang was indeed an excellent deputy. Knowing that he valued the Shanghai Station, he did not interfere in the affairs of the Shanghai Station at all. He did not even know that the operational force of the Shanghai Station had been turned into an empty shell by him.
He then handed a document to Wang Tianfeng.
Wang Tianfeng took it and looked at it, he was stunned and then he slowly read through it with great concentration.
This document is naturally the [Investigation Report] that Zhang Anping had previously handed over to Lao Dai.
As Wang Tianfeng was carefully and slowly flipping through the pages, Zhang Anping said:
"The main focus of the Shanghai station during this period is this - what do you think of my analysis?"
Old Wang waved his hand, signaling Zhang Anping to shut up and not disturb him.
Zhang Anping rolled his eyes. Lao Wang was really rude.
It took Lao Wang more than two hours to finish reading the report. After reading it, he became even more worried and said in a hoarse voice:
"If this is true, things will change in Shanghai."
There are two major concessions in Shanghai, the International Settlement and the French Concession.
The French Concession was the territory of the French, but after France was suppressed by Germany and the Vichy government came to power, the French Concession was still the French Concession in name, but the Japanese were able to run rampant in it.
Although the International Settlement was also timid in the face of the Japanese, it was ultimately backed by Britain and the United States, so the Japanese were somewhat wary of it.
But if Japan launches a surprise attack on the United States, will the Japanese still care about the deterrence of the Americans in the concessions?
The concession will inevitably fall!
The French Concession is now a safe haven. If the International Settlement also falls, Shanghai will no longer have a safe haven. In this case, the difficulty of survival for the Military Control Commission will increase exponentially!
"That's natural - so I've been hesitating whether to do something before the concession falls."
Zhang Anping paused and said, "Originally I didn't want to do this, but Ito has pissed me off this time, so I'm determined to get this vote!"
Wang Tianfeng's eyes suddenly lit up terribly, and he asked, "What are your plans?"
"Leaving an empty concession for the Japanese, what do you think?"
Empty concession?
Wang Tianfeng stared at Zhang Anping. He always felt that these six words were not that simple. If Zhang Anping could keep weighing the pros and cons and unable to make up his mind, it must be enough to be described as "earth-shattering", right?
"how do you want to do it?"
"Empty it and blow it up!"
hiss--
Wang Tianfeng gasped, but then he became extremely excited. If, if he could do it, then he would leave the Japanese with a devastated concession with nothing gained. Wouldn't that piss the Japanese off to death?
But he was extremely rational after all. After thinking for a while, he asked in a deep voice: "Can you do it?"
It is not easy to do all this.
"It's difficult with our strength, but if we find them to join forces, it's possible - but to achieve this, the battlefield is not only in Shanghai, but also needs to cooperate in other places."
Although Zhang Anping only used the word "they", Wang Tianfeng knew who "they" referred to, but he didn't care. Instead, he asked, "Specifically?"
Zhang Anping talked about his ideas.
His general idea is this:
At the same time as the Japanese army attacked Pearl Harbor, an uprising was held in the concession. With absolute superior force, the uprising forces were coordinated before the Japanese garrison could react, and then scorched earth destruction was carried out in a planned manner.
This time difference was very important. The gap between the Japanese navy and the army was serious, and the army had no way of knowing about the navy's attack on Pearl Harbor. During this time difference, the army completed the coordination of the rebel forces and the planned bombing. After the Japanese reacted, they used their absolute superior force and the characteristics of urban street fighting to complete the transfer from the concession, or more accurately, break out.
But this requires attracting the Japanese army's attention from the outside and preventing the Japanese army from having too many troops stationed in Shanghai.
Otherwise, the rebel forces would easily be trapped in Shanghai and find it difficult to evacuate.
To achieve this, the Kuomintang and the Communist Party need to cooperate in Shanghai and the external battlefield, especially in Shanghai. Without the help of our party, the Shanghai Military Control Commission would not be able to do this at all.
Of course, what made Zhang Anping hesitate was not the uprising or evacuation, but what to do after the evacuation.
After the evacuation, the rebel forces could only move to Zhejiang and Jiangsu, but Jiangsu and Zhejiang were basically under the control of the Japanese invaders. The rebel army was not a rigorously trained army. The Fifth Division in the last uprising suffered heavy casualties after fighting thousands of miles away. This rebel force was weaker than the Fifth Division. Could they withstand the wave after wave of attacks from the Japanese in the subsequent transfer?
It is precisely because of this reason that Zhang Anping has been in hesitation.
But now the fat guy is here!
He is now an army general, but he made a special trip to Shanghai secretly. If it was just for the smuggling network, Zhang Anping would never believe it - the more likely possibility is that he is going to take charge of the concession.
It is obvious that after several years of war, the Japanese were really at the end of their rope, so they allowed the fat man to come over, waiting to make a fortune after swallowing up the concession.
What the enemy wants to achieve most is that as an opponent, it is your obligation to make them come excited and leave angry, so Zhang Anping finally made up his mind.
This vote must be taken!
After listening to Zhang Anping's general idea, Wang Tianfeng thought to himself, it's you who has to hold back a big move every once in a while.
But Lao Wang was still a little worried. He asked, "Will this cause resentment in the concession?"
"The Japanese have already launched a surprise attack on the U.S. military. If we don't do anything, they will basically not have a good ending. They will definitely have opinions at that time, but after the final result comes out, they will only be grateful to us!"
Zhang Anping thought that after they saw the fate of their compatriots who were taken to concentration camps by the Japanese devils after the fall of the concession, they would not have any objections - those who had objections would definitely go to concentration camps, and when they came out, they would no longer have any objections.
What's more, the US government will definitely not find fault with us at that time, and may even be "thanked" by us.
Well, at that time, we must "focus on protecting" the British and let them perform some operations to betray their allies, so as to help the expeditionary force avoid landmines in advance.
Seeing Zhang Anping's certainty, Wang Tianfeng stopped worrying about whether it would annoy foreigners. After thinking for a while, he said in a deep voice:
“I think we can unite with that side.”
"I'm responsible for reporting this matter to the boss. I'm more wary of you than fire. Let me handle the negotiations."
Zhang Anping thought to himself, Old Wang, you are really nice!
He smiled bitterly and said, "They are indeed a bit defensive against me - then you should have a good talk with them. After all, in the face of a powerful enemy, it has always been their belief that we should unite to face the enemy."
Wang Tianfeng glanced at Zhang Anping and thought to himself, you are really good at taking advantage of others' weaknesses. (End of this chapter)
