Spy Wars: Return of the Red Luan

Chapter 232 Doi-man sets his sights on Kiyotsu

January 30, 1933 (the 22nd year of the Republic of China), Tianjin, China.

The disguised fat man stood in front of the Bansai Mansion on the streets of Tianjin, unable to understand why there were so many Japanese spies in Tianjin, which he hadn't visited in just a few years.

The key issue is that these Japanese spies are working against us.

Killing them is out of the question, but if we fight them, the other side will find out very quickly. It's too troublesome.

I personally went to the Bansai Mansion three times, but I still couldn't meet Bansai Keiko herself. This girl is really willful; if she doesn't want to see me, she simply won't. It seems I still need to go home and talk to my master about merging the Bansai Mansion with him.

A large number of Japanese spies were active on the streets of Tianjin, but these spies belonged to four different factions. One faction was Yang Dengying's Aoki Agency, another was Doihara's Shenyang Special Agent Agency, and the other two factions, the agents of the Bansai Mansion and the North China Garrison Army, were temporarily neutral.

For Yang Dengying, the past few years in North China have been relatively comfortable. Although he was busy, his boss was supportive and provided ample funding even when he was not physically present, never questioning his expenses.

As for the mission, it was far too simple: instruct your Japanese subordinates to find the other Japanese, beat them up, and then release them. What kind of crazy tactic is that?
Yang Dengying, also standing on the streets of Tianjin, was dressed exactly like a Japanese man. Only his Japanese identity could command these troublemakers who were originally from the Marine Corps.

"Chief, a call from the port: Lord Ji Yin's fleet has arrived."

"What's the rush? Are you in such a hurry for money? Isn't your monthly salary enough for your expenses? Find all the unfamiliar Japanese people who have recently arrived, monitor their every move, and report back promptly."

"Hi!"

"All you do is keep an eye on the port! Did you know that the boss's arch-enemy, Doihara, is coming from Shanhaiguan?"

"My men are investigating!"

"Send men throughout the city to search. Don't stay cooped up at the port; you won't be shortchanged from what's there."

When Yang Dengying arrived at Tianjin Port in a car driven by his Japanese subordinates, the smuggling fleet was already unloading cargo. Japanese women also disembarked at the same time.

"This Ji Yin Fengwen is something else, he even manages to smuggle women?"

"Chief, hehe, you've misunderstood Lord Jiyin. This isn't smuggling. Those are all family members of our brothers. We just asked Lord Jiyin to bring them over from Kagoshima."

"Hey, you guys are really smart, it's safe and saves money at the same time."

To put it bluntly, most of the spies in Yang Dengying's Aoki Agency are former naval personnel, and they are familiar with many veterans in Ji Yinfengwen's fleet. The two sides hit it off immediately and exchanged information.

Meanwhile, in Beiping, Zhu Huiwu continued to operate the Qingmu Pharmacy system. In accordance with the agreement with Chen Jiehua, the managers of each chain pharmacy were gradually replaced with his own comrades.

Through the pharmacy's cargo transportation routes, the organization successfully completed the exchange of intelligence, the transportation of supplies, and the transfer of funds.

Those who run fast are mostly already his comrades.

Once inside the pharmacy system, the Japanese didn't care, and the Kuomintang agents didn't keep an eye on things, greatly increasing the safety level.

The key point is that this boss was actually able to cooperate with the intelligence agency, and the two sides established a communication channel.

Amazing, so amazing.

A person's intuition is often very accurate, let alone Chen Jiehua's intuition.

Three days after Chen Jiehua left Qingjin Port, agents from Doihara's Shenyang intelligence agency tracked him down to Qingjin Port.

The spies never expected that there would be such a prosperous naval port in the north of North Korea!

The key point is that this naval port belongs to the "Manchukuo Fleet"! Isn't that the fleet of the boss's mortal enemy, Aoki Seigen?
Doihara returned to his secret base and received a telegram from his subordinates in Korea.

Kiyotsu Port! Aoki Seigen! Mr. Ye!

My gaze shifted to the map on the wall, which circled Qingjin Port, Motianling, Shulan County, and Beiyinhe in the eastern suburbs of Harbin—a straight line of four points!
"Yo-ho! Mr. Ye? Aoki Seigen, is that you?" "Notify everyone in the Shenyang and Harbin offices to head east, along the Mudanjiang River, towards the coast, focusing on the border region of the three countries!"

"Aoki Seigen, I'll seize this opportunity to use the leverage you've given me!"

Three days later, Qing Tengqi finally found an opportunity to deliver the intelligence to Zhu Huiwu's secret liaison station.

On February 5, 1933, Chen Jiehua returned to Shanghai with Jin Zhenji and entered Zhao Yiyue's secret stronghold.

"Old Zhao, let me introduce you to Kim Jeong-hui from North Korea. She's one of our own comrades. Her marksmanship and knife skills are top-notch, and she can jump around without any problem. I'll be entrusting her to you from now on. You can train her."

"Bro, what do you mean by 'jumping around without a problem'?"

"It's nothing, I was just complimenting you."

"Yes, your brother Qingxuan is praising you."

"Alright, Zhenji, this is Shanghai, not Northeast China. The bad guys here are even more cunning and cruel than the Kwantung Army. You must listen to Brother Zhao and study and master the skills of a secret agent."

"Okay. Didn't you say you'd take me to see the glitz and glamour of Shanghai?"

"A wonderful world awaits, we can see it tomorrow."

"How's Shanghai doing lately? Any big developments?"

"Xu Enzeng's Shanghai operations area has been relatively quiet lately, but Dai Chunfeng seems to be frequently traveling between Shanghai and Nanjing."

"I know that. My senior asked him to set up a secret investigation team, and they're probably looking for a location recently. Just keep an eye on it, but don't get too close, lest Lao Dai turns around and start watching us."

"What's going on with the Japanese?"

"I was just about to say that the Japanese seem to have their eyes on the gangs, and the two sides are exchanging glances and making secret contacts."

"That's a new problem. I want to see who the hell is so smart as to think of using the Green Gang."

After leaving Jin Zhenji with Zhao Yiyue, Chen Jiehua returned to her own home.

The Aoki Mansion in Shanghai is often unoccupied. Every time Chen Jiehua returns, he carefully checks the arrangements he left behind and looks for any listening devices.

After all the checks were completed, we went to the secret room to receive telegrams.

The first telegram came from Zhu Huiwu. As expected, Doihara's men had already discovered Kiyotsu Port and connected several points through it. Luckily, I had taken care of things early.

However, we still need to inform Ji Yinfengwen and Lao Guan to hunt down the agents sent by the Kwantung Army's intelligence agency with all their might, otherwise the base in Rajin Port will be exposed sooner or later.

The second telegram came from Old Zhou in America.

The base on the island has been set up, and the surrounding area has been camouflaged and arranged according to my suggestions.

In addition, based on his own description, Lao Zhou successfully developed the first generation of acoustic eavesdropping device.

Old Zhou has already completed the test in the United States, and the results were very good. He plans to personally return to Shanghai to bring it back.

The little gadget that Chen Jiehua cared about and urgently needed has finally been found.

The third telegram came from his brother-in-law, Chen Lanfeng, whose Taiwan resistance organization had made contact with Liu Junze and his men. The 19th Route Army was gradually transferring from Xiamen to Kaohsiung.
