Agents of the Republic of China

The unusual smoothness of the recruitment of Shang Zhensheng and Qiang Yihu was unexpected by Lin Xiaotang. Among them, Shang Zhensheng's performance played a crucial role. It can be seen that he was suppressed by the military headquarters It's been too long, and the desire to make achievements as soon as possible is very urgent.And this is the main reason why he has been extremely active in his work since he came to Nanjing Station.

Under the impetus of Shang Zhensheng, [-] cadres from Chongqing arrived quickly. For them, Lin Xiaotang did not disclose too much information, but controlled them with strict work discipline and confidentiality.Lin Xiaotang guessed that after the Chongqing side learned that Shang Zhensheng and Qiang Yihu had joined his military command station, they would definitely try their best to develop nails among them, so as to strengthen the monitoring of Lin Xiaotang's Nanjing station. , Lin Xiaotang also made sufficient preparations.

The daily intelligence work is in charge of these backbones from Chongqing. Lin Xiaotang will select 20 of the dozens of veterans brought from Shanghai and add them to the Nanjing station. It is to monitor these Chongqing cadres. When the Nanjing Station was first built, Lin Xiaotang had to pay more attention to these people. I believe that as time goes by, these people will gradually bow down to his emotions and Jin Yuan's offensive.

Lin Xiaotang never treated his subordinates harshly. The salaries of all his subordinates, including veterans and cadres from Chongqing, were higher than those of the same level in the military command. This alone made most of his subordinates feel grateful to him.However, the larger the site and the more staff, the corresponding expenses will also increase sharply.The money that Lin Xiaotang snatched from Yan Baihu has long been exhausted, and what he relies on now is the funds provided by Yugong and Wan Molin, but no matter how much money there is, it will eventually be spent. Fortunately, the current relationship with Ma Qiwen The material control business has begun to turn around. I believe that as long as this month is passed, the financial situation will be greatly improved.

Before, Lin Xiaotang had contacted Chongqing through the radio station, and reported on Qian Xinmin's execution and Qiang Yihu's stay in Nanjing Station. Dai Li was very satisfied, because this would undoubtedly make Nie The wishful thinking of Shang Yun, Zheng Jiemin and others came to nothing, so they agreed to replenish funds and equipment for Lin Xiaotang as soon as possible, and to ask for credit and awards for Shang Zhensheng and others.

Regarding Shen Zui's arrangement, Lin Xiaotang thought for a long time. This person is very capable, both civil and military, but he is too utilitarian and ambitious. Now Lin Xiaotang is not sure enough to control him. If he is allowed to stay in Nanjing Station, it will undoubtedly be It would be a potential hidden danger. After thinking about it, Lin Xiaotang still sent him back to Chongqing. The reason was that he had been exposed and it was definitely not safe to stay in Nanjing.

During this period, there was another incident that made Lin Xiaotang very angry. On the second day after the Xinya Hotel incident, a newspaper in Nanjing published a headline titled "Business upstarts are bitterly in love with the young lady in the music scene, the husband loves the concubine, and the wedding day is approaching". , the names of Longsheng and Lin Xiaotang spread throughout Nanjing.Lin Xiaotang became furious, took a photo of Ma Qixiang, and scolded him. Although he knew that he did this to attract the attention of the Japanese, but God knows if this kid did it on purpose, lest the world would not be chaotic, and then enjoyed himself watching the joke !Ma Qixiang obeyed obediently, and went out to wipe his ass.

Within two days, the newspaper published an apology, retracted the previous report, and said the report was wrong.Later, Lin Xiaotang learned that Ma Qixiang went to Zong Fei, and the two brothers made a fuss in the newspaper office under the name of the Military Intelligence Department, forcing the editor-in-chief to publish an apology, and the incident was settled.Lin Xiaotang didn't seem to make such a big fuss at first, but there was always a little fear in his heart, as if he was afraid that Dong Jiayi would get angry because of this after returning. Lin Xiaotang couldn't understand the specific entanglement in his heart, why it happened.

Shang Huaishi has also rushed back to Nanjing. He found the officer of the 58th Brigade. The news is correct. He was indeed a member of the 58th Army, but it was more than a year ago.According to his recollection, many people in the army were nicknamed Ergou, and he had a little impression that they were soldiers in Changsha.In his impression, the second dog was surnamed Zhang, and after serving as a soldier, because of his diligent legs and shrewd people, it didn't take long for him to be chosen by a regiment leader to become an orderly.Afterwards, in successive battles, the head of the regiment died in a battle, and many of his subordinates were killed or injured, so he never heard about Zhang Ergou again.However, he heard that the [-]th Army is still in Hunan.

Regarding Ergou's whereabouts, Lin Xiaotang was very eager to know the answer. When Yu Gong was in Nanjing, he sent people to inquire about the news, but he has not replied yet. Lin Xiaotang also does not want to do this through the military intelligence system, because Lin Xiaotang knew that the elder brother might have a certain connection with the "Golden Lily" project, and if he went to investigate through the military command, it would inevitably leak the news.

Lin Xiaotang carefully sorted out the ins and outs of retreating from Nanjing with Ergou that day.Along the way, faced with the siege and interception of the Japanese, from the beginning to the end, Ergou never heard anything about the eldest brother. Did he have no chance to talk about it, or was there something else hidden?Lin Xiaotang was puzzled by this point.

Although there are clues about Ergou, the current situation really does not allow Lin Xiaotang to go to Hunan to search.Nanjing Railway Station has begun to take shape, but No. 76 is pressing harder and harder in Shanghai. Yugong has sent a letter urging Lin Xiaotang to return to Shanghai quickly and prepare for the full takeover of Shanghai Railway Station. Had to temporarily endure.

It wasn't until a month later that the dust settled on a series of affairs at Nanjing Station, and various departments gradually entered the normal state. Information about the Nanjing puppet government, including Japan, was also continuously transmitted to Nanjing Station through the inside line in charge of the monk Longsheng Huaishi. After being screened by the intelligence department and the telecommunications department, the key points are selected to be delivered to Chongqing.

During this period, Lin Xiaotang specially ordered Ma Qixiang to intercept part of the information, all of which were related to the anti-Japanese base areas behind the Japanese enemy. Through Bai Qi, Lin Xiaotang handed over the information to the contact person he designated.In addition, through the material control plan, he hid some medicines, cotton cloth and food, all of which were handed over to Bai Qi's contact person.

After everything was arranged, Lin Xiaotang began to make arrangements before returning to Shanghai.According to his idea, he is going to take Shang Zhensheng and Qiang Yihu back to Shanghai. Shang Huaishi will take care of everything temporarily in Nanjing, Ma Qixiang will be the deputy, and Yan Xie will be in charge of the action team. In this way, Lin Xiaotang can rush Back to Shanghai, at the same time, I can fully understand the abilities of Shang and Qiang.Lin Huaibu temporarily acted as the director of the Nanjing Station's secret force, and stayed in Nanjing for the time being, and transferred [-] experts from it, led by Huoyan and Guo Zhui to accompany Lin Xiaotang.

Before leaving, Lin Xiaotang had a secret meeting with Zhuang Chong. At present, Tang Huimin at Nanjing Station No. 76 has been dismissed. The Japanese side feared that he would overshadow the sky in Nanjing. In addition, he concealed the Japanese and secretly accumulated force. Comparable to the armed forces of the Dai Li tax police force, this greatly exceeded the bottom line acceptable to the Japanese.Lin Xiaotang and Zhuang Chongxian took this opportunity to transfer the evidence of Tang Huimin's reselling of arms and recruiting troops to the hands of the Japanese, which single-handedly contributed to Tang Huimin's downfall.Yan Xiaoyi was dead, and Xiao Yicheng, as Ding Mo Village's confidant, and Lin Xiaotang's secret help, successfully ascended to the throne of No. 76 Nanjing Station Chief.Of course, he is grateful to Lin Xiaotang.

The purpose of Lin Xiaotang and Zhuang Chongxian's meeting was to discuss the possibility of further cooperation.Through what Lin Xiaotang saw and heard in Nanjing, he became more and more sure that Zhuang Chongxian was keeping a low profile and ready to go. This old man has the desire for power in his heart no less than that of young people. Regarding the strong rise of Li Shiqun and No. 76, he only Can temporarily avoid the edge, in fact, he has been waiting for the opportunity to come back.And this opportunity, Lin Xiaotang intends to give it to him, because they now have a common enemy.

Lin Xiaotang euphemistically expressed his worries to Zhuang Chongxian. Six months ago, he had to come to Nanjing because he avoided the revenge of Li Shiqun and Zhang Xiaolin. The strength returned to Shanghai Bund.

Regarding this point, Zhuang Chongxian fully agreed. During this period of time, through the downfall of Tang Huimin, he had already noticed that the Japanese had become dissatisfied with Li Shiqun's arrogance.He keenly discovered that his own opportunity was coming.

Ding Mocun lives in Nanjing, and he is also unwilling to be lonely. He does not want to be the "puppet emperor" of No. 76. He is eager to formally obtain the post of Minister of Police through the establishment of a puppet government, so as to restrain Li Shiqun.For this reason, he did not hesitate to reach an agreement with Zhuang Chongxian on an offensive and defensive alliance.The joining of Lin Xiaotang undoubtedly added more important weight to them.In Zhuang Chongxian's eyes, Wan Molin was behind Lin Xiaotang. With the two of them, at least half of the gang forces in Shanghai would fall to his side. This would definitely be a big help for Zhuang Chongxian and Ding Mocun.

The settlement of Xiao Yicheng and Ding Mo Village means that Lin Xiaotang will no longer have to worry about the future, and Chen Gong and Zhuang Chongxian have reached a cooperation agreement. For Lin Xiaotang, returning to Shanghai will be a battle that greatly increases his chances of winning.

Lin Xiaotang opened the window, and a wave of heat rushed towards him. Before he knew it, it was already June, and the second letter from Yugong had just been received, urging Lin Xiaotang to return to Shanghai as soon as possible.Because of an unusual event in Shanghai, Ji Yunqing was killed, and Fu Shenglan, an important official at the Shanghai station, openly defected to the Japanese.
