Chapter 1635 There is a situation
After Chen Gongshu came to Shanghai, the Shanghai District once again recruited new troops and expanded its strength to make up for the shortage of manpower caused by a series of major losses in the past.
After Qiao Chuntao learned about this, he arranged for two smart brothers to secretly join the Shanghai district.
"Nothing's wrong for now." Qiao Chuntao said, "The biggest loss in the Shanghai area this time was in Zhabei. I suspect that someone in the high-ranking officials in Zhabei was arrested and defected."
"With Wang Tianhai's puppet regime officially returning its capital to Nanjing, those of us who are not resolute in our internal struggle and have weak wills will be easily bewitched and induced to surrender." Cheng Qianfan said solemnly, "We must be careful of the rise of capitulationism."
He looked at Qiao Chuntao and said, "We must pay close attention to the Shanghai area. Compared with us, the Shanghai area is more mixed. We must guard against the Wang Puppet Regime's attempts to induce the Shanghai area to surrender."
"I understand." Taozi nodded.
"It's not just the Shanghai area. We in the Special Affairs Department must also remain highly vigilant at all times." Cheng Qianfan's expression was serious. "The establishment of the Wang Puppet Regime may bring about adverse effects that may far exceed our previous estimates."
"I understand." Taozi nodded seriously. He was originally puzzled as to why the director notified him in advance and came to meet him late at night, but he only mentioned and asked about the situation in the Shanghai area.
Now he understood that the director must be worried about the complex and severe situation that might be brought about by the establishment of the Wang Puppet Regime, so he came to warn him specifically.
……
"Brother Fan, do you mean that some people who were originally sitting on the fence might turn against us?" Taozi said.
Although some people secretly supported the anti-Japanese war or were still engaged in anti-Japanese work, in fact these people were not truly committed to the anti-Japanese war.
In other words, these people's attitude towards anti-Japanese forces was ambiguous. In the past, we had to be careful that these people might change from anti-Japanese fighters to bystanders at any time. Now, we may have to worry that these people may change from anti-Japanese fighters to traitors of the Wang Puppet regime.
In this situation, we do need to be extra vigilant.
……
"It's not just the fence-sitters." Cheng Qianfan shook his head slightly, "Even those who we think are determined in the war of resistance may suddenly change."
He told Qiao Chuntao, "The raising of the flag by the Wang Tianhai regime gave many people a reason to convince themselves that they could be traitors with peace of mind, and also gave some fighters the psychological relief of laziness, despair, and betrayal."
Cheng Qianfan said earnestly, "The fight against the Japanese is destined to be arduous and hard. Some people are afraid of suffering and are afraid of death. Now they have the steps and reasons to give up and rebel."
"This is why I urgently asked you to meet with me." Cheng Qianfan said in a deep voice, "This is an extraordinary period, and we must be extra careful."
"I understand." Qiao Chuntao nodded and said.
"I have recently been under surveillance by the new intelligence chief from Nanjing." Cheng Qianfan said, "So I will try to reduce my meetings with you."
"If anything happens, please contact Li Hao urgently." Cheng Qianfan said.
"Yes."
"Okay, I can't stay long." Cheng Qianfan stood up and said, "Remember, this is an extraordinary period. We must pay attention to guarding against the enemy and strengthen our control over our own internal situation."
"My subordinate understands."
"Especially the ones in Shanghai, I have no control over their life or death. Don't let them implicate us." Cheng Qianfan snorted coldly and said.
"Yes!"
……
33 Milestone Road.
"Team leader, it's Lu Qingxian." Xie Xiaqing turned over the body of a man who was shot and lying on the ground, and immediately recognized the identity of the deceased.
Cao Yu took a look and found that it was indeed Dong Zhengguo's subordinate Lu Qingxian. This man was one of Dong Zhengguo's trusted subordinates and was a ruthless person. It was a great pleasure for him to die at the hands of his comrades.
His expression was solemn and his brows were furrowed. "How many of Section Chief Dong's subordinates are gone?"
"Four." Xie Xiaqing said, "So far, we have seen the bodies of four brothers."
"Strange." Cao Yu shook his head and said, "Strange, people from my special agent headquarters are here, why doesn't Director Li know anything about it? Now it's good, something happened, we are here."
Just at this time, there was a noise coming from outside the courtyard.
Cao Yu turned his head and saw Dong Zhengguo leading a group of people, breaking through Bao Yitong's forces in the police station and rushing in.
"Stop." Bao Yitong drew his gun and shouted, "Stop, get out, or I will be rude to you."
Dong Zhengguo turned around, glanced at the patrol officer in front of him, and said coldly, "You're welcome? Shoot?"
Following Dong Zhengguo's words, many Type 76 agents around him quickly drew their guns and confronted Bao Yitong's men.
"What did I say?" Cao Yu said, "Brother Bao, stay calm."
As he said this, he walked forward and hugged Bao Yitong, "Here comes my ruthless character No. 76. If you don't want to bring disaster to yourself and your family..."
Cao Yu's expression was serious but sincere. "Brother, it's not easy to live in troubled times."
Bao Yitong looked at Cao Yu, then at Dong Zhengguo, who had a gloomy face. He finally nodded, "A quarter of an hour, Captain Min will be here in a quarter of an hour. I must take action."
"I understand, I understand." Cao Yu smiled, "Isn't it good that we respect each other now?"
……
"Team Leader Cao is very busy." Dong Zhengguo took the cigarette handed over by Cao Yu, lit it, took a few deep puffs, and said lightly, "You are everywhere."
"The director has given an order, so we must do our best." Cao Yu led Dong Zhengguo to one side and asked in a low voice, "Brother Dong, I found several bodies here, and they are all your people. What's going on?"
"This matter is confidential. I can't disclose any information." Dong Zhengguo said coldly.
Upon hearing this, Cao Yu's face also darkened.
……
Dong Zhengguo walked straight towards a corpse.
This is Yuan Ziren's body.
He stared at Yuan Ziren's body with a frown on his face.
"Chief Dong, do you know this person?" Cao Yu said in a deep voice.
Dong Zhengguo turned his head and looked around.
Cao Yu waved his hand and all his men stepped back. Dong Zhengguo coughed and waved his hand, and his men also tried to stay away from the two men.
"Chief Dong, can you tell me now?" Cao Yu said.
"This is Yuan Ziren, the chief of the First Section of the Nanjing District Intelligence Department." Dong Zhengguo said, pointing at Yuan Ziren's body.
"People from Nanjing District?" Cao Yu frowned and looked at Dong Zhengguo in confusion. "Is this a secret operation? Why didn't Director Li know about it and asked me to come here to investigate?"
Dong Zhengguo felt very annoyed when he heard Cao Yu always talking about "Director Li".
"This is confidential. When Team Leader Cao returns and asks Director Li for instructions, he will naturally know everything." Dong Zhengguo said unhappily, "The most important thing now is to investigate the scene and investigate the case."
Having said that, Dong Zhengguo no longer paid attention to Cao Yu and went into the scene to investigate.
Soon, Dong Zhengguo's face became extremely gloomy.
"Chief Dong, what happened?" Cao Yu immediately came up and asked.
"The prisoner has been kidnapped." Dong Zhengguo said with a sullen face.
"Prisoner?"
"Red Party prisoners," Dong Zhengguo said, "There were several Red Party prisoners brought from Nanjing here, but now they are all gone."
"So, it was the Red Party that attacked this place and rescued their people?" Cao Yu said thoughtfully.
"That should be the case." Dong Zhengguo nodded. Suddenly, his expression changed slightly and he uttered an exclamation.
……
"No." Cheng Qianfan sat up from the bed and said solemnly.
Zhang Ping poked her head out from the other bed, "What's wrong?"
"No, something's wrong!" Cheng Qianfan said.
"One person is missing." Cheng Qianfan said with a serious expression, "One person is missing from the scene, someone who should have been there."
"Who's missing?" Zhang Ping asked.
"Lu Mingbo, Dr. Lu Mingbo from Lu's Clinic." Cheng Qianfan said in a deep voice, "Comrade Piano and I rushed into No. 33 Meier Xiai Road, eliminated all the enemies on the scene, and then successfully rescued the people."
He said to Zhang Ping, "Everything went smoothly, and then we had to evacuate urgently, so I didn't pay much attention to it at the time. Now I remember, where is Lu Mingbo?"
"Could he have been released back to the clinic by No. 76?" Zhang Ping asked after thinking for a while.
"It's unlikely." Cheng Qianfan shook his head. "Old Huang arranged for someone to investigate Lu Mingbo. They saw him being taken back to the clinic by secret agents. It seemed that he was going to get something. Then he was taken back to No. 33, Meierxiai Road by secret agents."
"So, Lu Mingbo should be at No. 33." Zhang Ping said thoughtfully.
"Yes, he should be here." Cheng Qianfan said in a deep voice. He turned his head and looked at Zhang Ping. "Someone who should have been here suddenly disappeared."
Zhang Ping also realized the seriousness of the matter, and her expression became serious.
"What do you think is going on?" Zhang Ping asked.
"Maybe there are many possibilities." Cheng Qianfan said, "In short, this matter is not normal, and we must not take it lightly."
"So, do you think that Doctor Lu was not in Room 33 at the time, or that he was still there when you broke into Room 33 and just took advantage of the chaos to escape?" Zhang Ping analyzed.
"If it's the first case, it's fine. But if it's the second case..." Cheng Qianfan pondered, "This matter will be a bit troublesome."
Zhang Ping nodded. Although according to Comrade 'Huomiao', he and Comrade 'Piano' were wearing fire brigade uniforms and their faces were covered with fire brigade oilcloth masks, the possibility of being recognized was almost non-existent.
However, it is always a good idea to be cautious.
Sometimes, it is better to be safe than sorry.
Cheng Qianfan fished out a cigarette box, took out a cigarette, but did not light it. Instead, he held it in his hand and played with it.
He took the cigarette and sniffed it, his expression suddenly changing, "Lu Mingbo is a doctor, invited by the enemy to treat the captured comrades. In other words, he is the person who knows the inside story best besides the enemy."
"I understand what you mean." Zhang Ping said, "If there is a problem among the rescued comrades, Doctor Lu must know it."
"Even if we don't know the inside story," Cheng Qianfan said, "what medicine the doctor used, how he diagnosed and treated the wounded, and what the enemy's attitude was towards the wounded at the time, these are all important details that can be used as evidence for the investigation."
……
Hearing Dong Zhengguo's light exclamation, Cao Yu's heart moved, but his face remained calm as he asked, "What's wrong?"
Dong Zhengguo was a little emotional because he suddenly realized that the Red Party had rescued all the prisoners in custody and under interrogation:
Shang Jiayuan, Mu Kaining, and Lin Qingqi.
There is no need to say much about Shang Jiayuan and Mu Kaining, the two diehard members of the Red Party. Lin Qingqi has already surrendered and spoken. He was rescued by the Red Party, which seems to be a 'blessing in disguise'!
However, Dong Zhengguo was a thoughtful man. Facing Cao Yu, he chose to conceal this and instead expressed doubts, saying, "Section Chief Yuan hired a doctor to be on duty to examine and treat the prisoners. I carefully examined the bodies just now and did not find the body of the doctor."
"You suspect this doctor is a member of the Red Party?" Cao Yu said after thinking, "So, it is not impossible."
He said to Dong Zhengguo, "This place is quite hidden. Even I, who was ordered to find Section Chief Dong, took quite some time to find him. However, the enemy was able to clearly grasp the situation here. And all this, assuming that there is a problem inside..."
……
Hearing Cao Yu say this, Dong Zhengguo also fell into deep thought.
He had indeed not had any doubts about Lu Mingbo before, but now that Cao Yu said this, Dong Zhengguo suddenly felt that this situation was not impossible.
There was nothing wrong with what Cao Yu said. No. 33, Milesia Road was a secret base. Even the people on Jessfield Road were not aware of it. As for the possibility that the Red Party had known about the situation here before, it was almost non-existent.
So, how did the Red Party find this place? And this action was precise and fast!
There was a problem internally and someone leaked the information to the outside world. This would be the first suspect.
"I will order an investigation into this matter," Dong Zhengguo said. He said to Cao Yu, "Please ask Team Leader Cao to assist in the search for Lu Mingbo."
"Lu Mingbo? The name sounds familiar." Cao Yu said in surprise when he heard it.
"The doctor from Lu's Clinic." Dong Zhengguo said.
"I remember it now. It's the Lu's Clinic on West Aixians Road." Cao Yu said to Dong Zhengguo, "This clinic is quite famous in this area."
"Since Team Leader Cao knows this person, please take the trouble to help find this person." Dong Zhengguo said with a serious face, "This matter is very important."
"I'll do my best." Cao Yu nodded. He waved his hand, called Xie Xiaqing over, and assigned the task.
……
Just at this moment, a loud voice came from outside the courtyard.
"After such a murder by shooting, I just asked you to seal off the scene and wait for follow-up measures, but you can't even do such a small thing." Min Rang was furious, "You idiot! Idiot!"
After being scolded by the patrol captain, Bao Yitong lowered his head and dared not speak.
Min Rang kicked Bao Yitong, then led a team of armed police officers into the yard.
When Cao Yu and Dong Zhengguo led their men out of the main hall, they saw the angry Min Rang and his men.
