Courtyard House: Reborn in the 1940s, Starting with Killing Japanese Devils

Moreover, just two days ago, the Military Intelligence Bureau's Hurricane Team received instructions from Viper, the head of the intelligence section of the Shanghai Military Intelligence Station, to cooperate in carrying out the Fengye Plan and eliminate the major traitor Chen Moqun.

The venomous snake's command was like a double-edged sword, constantly hanging over Tao Dachun's mind.

If the Hurricane Squad is dispatched at this moment, their whereabouts will inevitably be exposed, which will give the Japanese army an opportunity to take advantage of them.

"What should we do? Boss Dai personally gave the order, and the Fengye Plan must be carried out."

Tao Dachun took a deep breath, his mind racing as he weighed the pros and cons.

If they disobeyed orders, they would not only betray Boss Dai's trust, but Wang Shi'an might also report the matter to the Chongqing Military Intelligence Bureau headquarters.

He gritted his teeth, determined to take the risk, and immediately gathered the Hurricane Team members, giving them instructions in a low voice.

"From now on, everyone should eat and drink their fill, and prepare all weapons, ammunition, and grenades."

"Tonight, we will launch a feigned attack on the Loyal and Patriotic Army of the Wang Jingwei regime," Tao Dachun said slowly, his gaze sweeping over the six Hurricane Team members in front of him.

"Right now, the Japanese are acting like madmen, arresting and searching people everywhere in the city."

Something big must have happened at the Military Police Headquarters. It might even be an agent sent by Boss Dai to assassinate Chen Moqun, that traitor.

Tao Dachun slowly opened his mouth and made a bold guess, which was actually not far from the truth.

"We must act with extreme caution and avoid direct confrontation with the enemy."

Under the cover of darkness, they launched a feint attack to distract the Japanese troops.

Tao Dachun's gaze was firm, and his tone was calm, "Remember, our goal is only to create chaos, not to launch a real attack."

"Understood, Captain!"

The team members immediately took action, carefully checking their equipment. Although their faces were full of tension, they also showed a firm determination to go all out.

Tao Dachun composed himself, his expression becoming increasingly firm and calm: "Bring out all the landmines and American grenades we've stockpiled."

Meanwhile, inside a secret liaison point of the Shanghai underground party, Uncle Li was meticulously cleaning a Mauser pistol.

Just then, the "fisherman," dressed in a gray overcoat and wearing an old felt hat, quietly pushed open the door and walked in, looking somewhat tired.

"How is it, Comrade Fisherman?" Uncle Li looked at him anxiously and quickly asked, "Is that traitor Chen Moqun dead?"

The fisherman was Uncle Li's direct superior.

"According to the news I got from the postman, the Japanese military police headquarters was shelled, and Colonel Takahashi Senbei was killed on the spot..." The fisherman took a breath, picked up the porcelain bowl on the table, poured a cup of water, and drank it down in large gulps.

Uncle Li quickly pressed on, "Who specifically did it?"

The fisherman took a deep breath, put down the porcelain bowl, and said with a solemn expression, "The intelligence from the postman indicates that this was most likely done by agents sent by Dai Li... but the specifics are still unclear."

"Uncle Li, did you get any news from Cobra?" The fisherman looked at Uncle Li with a serious expression.

Uncle Li hesitated for a moment before slowly speaking: "The message from Cobra says that the leader of the underground party in Chongqing, codenamed Lone Shadow, was sent by Dai Li from Chongqing to Shanghai to carry out an assassination mission."

Swah——

Upon hearing this, the fisherman was startled and his face was filled with astonishment.

"What? You mean... this was done by our own people?"

"That's possible."

Uncle Li nodded and said in a deep voice, "In my opinion, the Japanese will definitely launch a large-scale search and arrest operation throughout the city right now, and they might even arrest people indiscriminately to vent their anger."

We absolutely cannot show ourselves now; we must remain inactive. Otherwise, all our previous efforts will have been in vain.

The fisherman nodded slightly, agreeing with Uncle Li's idea: "You're right, the situation is unclear right now, and we really can't act rashly. But, what about Comrade Guying..."

His words carried a hint of worry, after all, Guying was an important force sent by the underground party in the mountain city, and if he were to meet with misfortune in this chaos, the loss would be too great.

Uncle Li patted the fisherman on the shoulder and comforted him softly: "Comrade Guying has rich experience in struggle, and I believe he can handle the current situation."

What we need to do now is to guard this contact point, ensure its safety, and closely monitor any movements outside.

The fisherman nodded, a determined light rekindling in his eyes: "Alright, we'll do as you say."

I'll arrange for people to be on high alert at the contact point right away. You should also be prepared to respond to any possible emergencies.

"Fisherman, you must immediately inform all the leaders of the Shanghai Municipal Party Committee that they must not go out at this time, especially those comrades who have contact with the base area in northern Jiangsu..."

The two immediately divided the work and got busy. Uncle Li carefully checked the Mauser pistol again to make sure it was in the best condition, and then hid it close to his body.

He knew in his heart that the days to come were destined to be a battle full of unknowns and dangers, but he was not afraid at all, because he firmly believed that one day he would drive the Japanese out of China and usher in the dawn of victory.

Uncle Li walked to the window, his gaze sharp, looking at Shanghai shrouded in night.

The streetlights were dim and yellow, and there were few pedestrians on the road. The air was thick with tension and oppression.

…………

That night, Chen Shen, accompanied by Bi Zhongliang and agents from the 76th Special Agent Headquarters, searched the entire city for suspicious individuals.

In the end, they only caught a few drunk men and innocent passersby, and didn't even see a trace of the real underground party members.

Chen Shen secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but his face still remained serious.

The office building of the Shanghai Special Higher Police was brightly lit.

Section Chief Hirata Kiko sat behind her desk, her brows furrowed, intently examining the intelligence documents on it.

This intelligence was a top-secret message sent back at great risk by "Sakura," a Japanese spy who had infiltrated the Military Intelligence Bureau.

[Top Secret: Military Intelligence Agent "King of Hell" Has Arrived in Shanghai to Assassinate Chen Moqun]

"Baka yarou! Yama?"

Hirata Kiko couldn't help but curse angrily, "A bunch of useless idiots! The people are dead, and they're only sending back information now? What's the use! Araki's men are all incompetent!"

Not long after, there was a knock on the office door.

"Come in." Kiko Hirata opened her desk drawer and quickly stuffed the intelligence she was holding inside.

"Commander Hirata, Li Moqun, director of the 76th Special Agent Headquarters, has come to see me with Bi Zhongliang, the head of the Operations Department."

The secretary pushed open the door and bowed deeply to Hirata Kiko.

A hint of impatience flashed in Hirata Kiko's eyes, but she still said coldly, "Let them in."

A moment later, Li Moqun and Bi Zhongliang walked in with smiles on their faces and bowed slightly to Hirata Kiko.

Li Moqun spoke first, his face full of flattery: "Commander Hirata, although tonight's search operation did not achieve much, we will definitely intensify our search efforts and will not let any suspicious person go."

Hirata Kiko snorted coldly: "I hope you keep your word. The situation is critical. The military police headquarters was attacked, and Colonel Takahashi Senbei was killed in a bombing. All of this was done by the Kuomintang secret agent 'King of Hell'."

If you continue to let your guard down, you know perfectly well what the consequences will be.

Bi Zhongliang hurriedly nodded and bowed, his face full of flattery: "Yes, yes, Commander Hirata, rest assured, we will do our best and will never slack off."
