You were allowed to marry into No. 76 family, and you were promoted to director?

Chapter 439 Typical
Zheng Yi stood in front of the desk, looking at Fu Zhengguo who had finished reading the newspaper, and said:

"Station Chief, I have a feeling that something is not right about this trip on the Yamato cruise ship! Although we don't know much about the underground party, we know their capabilities."

"We couldn't find a single clue about the national treasures that Zhenxingqi Society had hidden. It turns out that the underground party members were much faster than us. They not only found the location of the national treasures, but also moved them without anyone noticing."

"The timing of Ding Moqun receiving the intelligence was too coincidental. I could feel that the underground party and the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics were about to take action, but in the end, because of that timely intelligence, it can almost be said that the person from No. 76 who passed the intelligence to Ding Moqun saved us all."

"Such a coincidence is completely illogical, unless someone deliberately let the people of 76 discover the intelligence at that time."

Fu Zhengguo was also quite emotional. As an underground party member who had infiltrated the Kuomintang, he had not received any information. In the end, the national treasure that both sides had been searching for for so long was found by the organization without any warning.

Based on Fu Zhengguo's understanding of his organization, if the discovery of those national treasures occurred before Ding Moqun's plan, it would have been impossible for there to have been no news for so long.

You have to understand that finding this batch of items would free up a lot of comrades' time, and the organization couldn't possibly keep them searching any longer.

Therefore, the only possibility is that those national treasures were only found by comrades in the organization yesterday by chance.

But it was precisely because of this that Fu Zhengguo was amazed that the organization had such a short time to find the national treasure, yet they were still able to set up a flawless trap to protect their comrades on the cruise ship.

“Zheng Yi, no matter what, we have received a favor from the Red Party this time.”

"I've already reported the status of those national treasures to Shancheng. We'll have to wait for Shancheng's reply regarding the specific follow-up arrangements!"

"However, the most urgent thing now is this: the notorious traitor Zhao Xuan has actually become the 'little emperor' of the Japanese. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the Japanese are vigorously promoting the Greater East Asia Peace Conference, which they claim was spearheaded by them, a conference that deeply cooperated with the Wang Jingwei regime while persecuting the merchants in the Shanghai-Nanjing area. Therefore, the current situation is that Zhao Xuan has no choice but to die; otherwise, he will become the benchmark for the Japanese to recruit talent from our Dragon Kingdom!"

Zheng Yi looked at Fu Zhengguo with a troubled expression. She naturally understood what Zhao Xuan's current status meant to some people in the Dragon Kingdom.

But if assassinating Zhao Xuan was the only option, Zheng Yi pondered for a moment and then sighed:
"Station Chief, Zhao Xuan is at the top of the list of traitors to be eliminated. The higher-ups have given strict orders that even if we want to assassinate any of the top ten traitors on the list, we must report it first and wait for approval from the meeting in Shancheng before we can take action."

“Zhao Xuan is indeed becoming a growing threat, but even if we want to kill him, we must get the approval of our superiors.”

Fu Zhengguo nodded with a gloomy expression. He had actually guessed the reason for this arrangement.

It's likely that among the top ten on the list of those targeted for assassination, there are agents of the Military Intelligence Bureau.

The list of assassinations wasn't exactly a secret, and Xiao Rizi could easily guess that there were Kuomintang agents among the top ten.

Why didn't Xiao Rizi investigate this aspect even though he guessed it?

It's very simple. The people in the group aren't stupid. They know that as long as the lurker is still on the top ten list, then those people in the top ten are relatively safe to travel.

But if this person gets beaten up, the result will be that the top ten people on the list will be filled with anxiety, and it will be a net loss.

Therefore, Xiao Rizi would rather let the lurkers continue to lurk than eliminate them before the time is right.

After a long silence, Fu Zhengguo sighed:
"Sigh, Shao Jiang, Shao Jiang, are we just going to stand by and watch?!"

"Fine, since he can't move, let him keep jumping around."

At this point, Fu Zhengguo looked at Zheng Yi and said:

"By the way, I received word that Zhao Xuan will be leaving Shanghai soon. Do you have any specific information?"

Zheng Yi shook his head:
"I'm not sure about that, but according to our investigation, Zhao Xuan's departure from Shanghai is related to the previously established epidemic prevention and control supervision team."

"The departure date is probably in the next day or two. That Tojo Hideo's original purpose for coming to Shanghai was related to this."

Fu Zhengguo nodded:

"Keep a close eye on Zhao Xuan's whereabouts. It's good that he left Shanghai. I was just worrying about how to carry out the orders that Boss Dai gave me yesterday!"

Zheng Yi's expression changed:
"Has the mountain city given us a mission?"

Fu Zhengguo nodded solemnly:
"Now it seems that Xiao Rizi's promotion of Zhao Xuan to the position of Shao Jiang was probably not a coincidence."

"Yesterday, Boss Dai gave my Shanghai station an order. According to reliable intelligence, Xiao Rizi will soon lead the convening of the East Asian Peace Conference. Today, Zhao Xuan was promoted to the position of Shao Jiang, probably in preparation for this conference."

"At this conference, which is spearheaded by the Wang Jingwei regime, over a hundred officials will be sent to attend, and several high-ranking Japanese political figures will also be participating."

"Our mission is to blow up the conference venue and thwart Xiao Ri's conspiracy during the conference."

Zheng Yi frowned as he looked at Fu Zhengguo:
"Stationmaster, if that's the case, we'll need a lot of explosives, but where will we get them?"

"Buy on the black market?"

Fu Zhengguo shook his head with a wry smile:
"The black market explosives have long been monopolized by the little people. Now, the black market's top boss, Ding Moqun's niece Dao Ya, has also left Shanghai. Our colleagues in Nanjing have given us intelligence that Dao Ya has appeared in Nanjing. If Dao Ya is still in Shanghai, we might be able to think of a way to deal with her."

Although Zheng Yi had no feelings for Dao Ya, he admired the girl in his heart, simply because Dao Ya was incredibly bold.

It is said that Dao Ya had previously purchased a large quantity of weapons, and her trip to Nanjing was likely to sell these weapons.

As for where she will sell it, that remains to be seen.

There was also Dao Ya's home delivery service, which left Zheng Yi speechless when he heard about it.

Under Xiao Rizi's very nose, Dao Ya still dared to do this. It was like pulling teeth from a tiger's mouth, a death wish!
But Dao Ya is living a perfectly good life, and her daily life doesn't seem to cause her any trouble.

"Stationmaster, without Dao Ya, where are we going to get enough explosives to destroy the venue?"

"Furthermore, we don't even know where the Japanese are holding the Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere Conference. Even if we have explosives, we probably can't set them up in such a hurry."

Fu Zhengguo smiled:

"Boss Dai's order is for us to get our hands on the explosives first. As for the location of the meeting, other colleagues will find out the situation and inform us later."

"I've already made arrangements for this batch of explosives, but getting them transported back is a bit of a challenge. The main problem is that this transport mission must be kept secret; otherwise, the explosives won't be able to get into Shanghai at all."

Zheng Yi blinked:
"Station chief, where did you get so much explosives?"

Fu Zhengguo's lips curled up slightly:
"That batch of explosives came from the Soviet Union, but we had to personally escort it back. So, during the escort, we needed to distract Xiao Rizi."

Now Zheng Yi finally understood why Fu Zhengguo had mentioned assassinating Zhao Xuan.

"So, the station chief means we should target Zhao Xuan to distract Xiao Rizi and allow that batch of explosives to be successfully smuggled into Shanghai?"

Fu Zhengguo's expression turned serious, and he nodded solemnly, saying:

“That’s right. Right now, no one can attract Xiao Rizhi’s attention more than Zhao Xuan. As a newly promoted Shao Jiang, such an important identity, if we assassinate him, Xiao Rizhi’s attention will definitely be drawn to him.”

"The assassination was a ruse; the real purpose was to create a diversion."

"At this juncture, Zhao Xuan's promotion to Japanese commander is definitely for the purpose of the Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere conference. The Japanese are trying to win people's hearts with this."

"Therefore, I absolutely value Zhao Xuan's safety."

“If Zhao Xuan had stayed in Shanghai, it would have been difficult for us to make a move. Now, it’s like heaven is helping us. So, Zheng Yi, you must keep a close eye on Zhao Xuan’s whereabouts. Once he leaves Shanghai, issue a kill order immediately. We don’t need to actually kill him, but we absolutely must make sure to draw Xiao Rizi’s attention to him.”

Zheng Yi slowly exhaled and said:
"Understood, stationmaster, I'll arrange it right away."

Guanghua Bookstore on Hankou Road, Shanghai.

Wang Shuyu looked at the newly printed newspapers, her face beaming with a smile:

"Uncle Sun, do you think Xiao Ri would be furious if he knew that the Shao Jiang they promoted was one of our people?"

Sun Jianzhong had just returned from outside and was not surprised to see the newspaper in Wang Shuyu's hand; he had already read it outside.

"That's good. Comrade Chenguang is now in a high position and holds great power. However, Shuyu, the organization has just issued an order."

Wang Shuyu gave an "oh," put down her newspaper, and looked at Sun Jianzhong with a deep gaze.

"Uncle Sun doesn't look well. What are the orders from the organization?"

Sun Jianzhong took a deep breath, sat down, and said in a low voice:

"This was no accident. After Mr. Chen was rescued, he led our guerrilla team back to the camp of the Nanyang compatriots. But when they arrived, they found that all the Nanyang compatriots had disappeared. After investigation, it was found that all of them had been secretly arrested by the police."

"And the person leading the team was none other than Matsui Iwane." "That scoundrel!"

Upon hearing the name, Wang Shuyu had a stress reaction and slammed her hand on the table.

Sun Jianzhong nodded:

"That's right, Matsui Iwane has returned."

"However, he has not yet entered Shanghai. According to the investigation by the armed work team, the Nanyang compatriots were sent to a concentration camp by Matsui Iwane, where nearly two battalions of military police are guarding them."

"Deep in enemy territory, it is extremely difficult for us to rescue our compatriots from Nanyang."

"The organization's mission is to find out Matsui Iwane's purpose in arresting them and to find a way to rescue them."

Wang Shuyu rubbed her head, which was throbbing slightly, and after a few seconds, she looked at Sun Jianzhong with a furrowed brow:
"We now know the location of the concentration camp. It's just that the Japanese army is heavily guarding it and has strong capabilities. Our guerrillas and armed work teams in Shanghai are not enough to confront them head-on, let alone rescue our compatriots from Southeast Asia!"

Sun Jianzhong nodded with a bitter face:

"That's right. Chitu has already gone to investigate the specific situation. Mr. Chen is very worried about the safety of the team he brought. The organization attaches great importance to this matter."

"But if we want to rescue them, now that Chenguang is leaving Shanghai, our chances of winning are even smaller."

Wang Shuyu squinted and pondered for a while, then suddenly paused, looking at Sun Jianzhong with some confusion and asking:
"Uncle Sun, you just said that the concentration camp is guarded by military police?"

"And two large detachments?"

Sun Jianzhong nodded:

"This intelligence is very accurate. What's wrong, Shuyu? What did you find out?"

Wang Shuyu tapped her fingers on the table and murmured:

"That shouldn't be the case. If the military police are guarding the concentration camps, what will happen to the rest of Shanghai?"

"Two battalions have basically emptied the military police in Shanghai."

Sun Jianzhong suddenly realized:
"Yes, what exactly is that scoundrel Matsui Iwane trying to do? Is he putting the cart before the horse?"

Wang Shuyu shook her head:

"No, I think that the detention of the overseas Chinese in concentration camps is just a temporary measure. The intelligence we received earlier was that Koji Ida, the commander of the Military Police Headquarters, was about to be transferred from Shanghai, and his replacement was Iwane Matsui."

"It is definitely not normal that Matsui Iwane has secretly arrived in Shanghai but has not yet handed over to Ida Koji."

"As Chen Guang mentioned before, Koji Ida will be transferred in the next couple of days. In other words, no matter what Matsui Iwaki's purpose is, he will definitely be entering Shanghai to take charge of the Military Police Headquarters by the end of the next few days."

"In other words, the Nanyang compatriots are only temporarily in the concentration camp. Once Matsui Iwane enters Shanghai, they will definitely be transferred to another place."

"But even if they are transferred, they will definitely be transferred under the guard of two military police battalions, and we still won't have a chance."

"Unless, after the Nanyang compatriots are transferred, we not only need to know their exact location, but we also need to find an opportunity when the Japanese army is out of force, in order to rescue them."

Sun Jianzhong nodded:
"That's right, but will such an opportunity really come?"

Wang Shuyu shook her head:

"With insufficient intelligence, we can only continue to keep an eye on the concentration camp. If all else fails, we'll probably have to wait for Chenguang to return before we can think of another solution."

dong dong——

There was a knock on the door of the secret room, and Sun Jianzhong and Wang Shuyu quickly turned to look at the location of the hidden door.

"It's the postman!"

Sun Jianzhong was familiar with the rhythm of the knocking. Upon hearing this, Wang Shuyu nodded and silently retreated in her wheelchair to another room in the secret chamber.

The hidden door opened, and Jiang He stood at the door, covered in sweat. Sun Jianzhong quickly called him in.

"Comrade Postman, is there any new news from Red Hare?"

Jiang He shook his head, sat down, poured himself a large bowl of water, drank it down, and after catching his breath, said:

"It's not Red Hare, it's Comrade Haosheng. The Military Intelligence Bureau has issued a new order to the Shanghai station. The Japanese will hold a Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere Conference soon. At that time, the Wang Jingwei regime will send hundreds of officials to attend, and the Japanese will also send many high-ranking political officials."

"The mission of the Shanghai station is to secretly transport a batch of high explosives into Shanghai before the conference, and then blow up the venue when the conference begins, thereby disrupting Xiao Rizi's political plan to consolidate the results of the Zaoyi Campaign!"

"At the same time, this Japan-led Co-Prosperity Sphere Conference will establish more role models to attract talented people from our Dragon Country to join their ranks."

As he spoke, Jiang He took a newspaper from his pocket:
Have you read this newspaper?

Sun Jianzhong nodded:

"I've seen it. Zhao Xuan was promoted to Japanese rank 17. Does this mean that Xiao Rizi did this to set an example?"

Jiang He nodded:
"That's what Comrade Hao Sheng's intelligence says."

"Also, Zhao Xuan has already led the epidemic prevention supervision team onto the train. Their destination is still unclear. However, Comrade Hao Sheng said that the Military Intelligence Bureau will organize people to hunt down Zhao Xuan in order to attract Xiao Rizi's attention and thus successfully transport that batch of explosives into Shanghai."

"Comrade Haosheng needs our help to prepare a hidden place so that the explosives can be stored after they are transported in."

Sun Jianzhong nodded:
"Okay, I understand. I'll let you know once everything is arranged here."

Jiang He smiled, put down the bowl, and left.

After the secret door to the secret room was closed, Wang Shuyu came out from another room.

From her wheelchair, Wang Shuyu said nervously:

"Comrade Hao Sheng is going to hunt down Zhao Xuan?!"

Sun Jianzhong smiled and said:

"Don't worry, Shuyu. With Comrade Chenguang's abilities, the chances of the Military Intelligence Bureau succeeding in their pursuit are very small."

"Furthermore, the Military Intelligence Bureau's operation to hunt down Zhao Xuan is merely a diversionary tactic. Therefore, the Military Intelligence Bureau will not kill Zhao Xuan. If Zhao Xuan dies, the purpose of diverting attention will not be achieved."

Wang Shuyu breathed a sigh of relief; she had only made a mistake because she was worried!
Now that she understood the Military Intelligence Bureau's plan, Wang Shuyu's mind raced. In just a few seconds, her pupils contracted slightly, and she suddenly looked at Sun Jianzhong and said:

"Uncle Sun, the postman just said that the Japanese will be holding a Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere Conference soon?"

Sun Jianzhong nodded:

"Is there anything wrong?"

Wang Shuyu breathed a sigh of relief:
"Uncle Sun, I think I know why Matsui Iwane hasn't entered Shanghai yet after arriving in Songhu!"

"Moreover, those two battalions of military police probably won't be able to keep watch over the Nanyang compatriots forever."

"Matsui Iwane is definitely the main figure at this conference, so security for the conference is naturally a top priority for the Military Police Headquarters."

"Once the conference is held, Matsui Iwane will definitely deploy most of his troops to maintain the security of the venue."

"With hundreds of Wang Jingwei officials attending the meeting, if something unexpected happens, the blow to the Wang Jingwei government will be unprecedented, so Matsui Iwane dares not relax."

"Therefore, the convening of the conference was also the opportunity for us to rescue our compatriots in Southeast Asia!"

After listening to Wang Shuyu's words, Sun Jianzhong thought about it more and more and felt that they made more sense.

Sun Jianzhong's eyes immediately lit up:
"Moreover, the Kuomintang's Military Intelligence Bureau will be eyeing the conference covetously, which will make it even more advantageous for us to rescue our compatriots from Southeast Asia. Therefore, helping the Military Intelligence Bureau to successfully transport the explosives into Shanghai is of paramount importance!"

[Another problem has arisen; what's going on after several revisions?]
