1936, December.

Several months have passed since Zuo Zhong retreated from Tokyo, and the four seasons have once again gone through a reincarnation silently.

Just after five o'clock that afternoon, the Jinling Party Headquarters was bustling with people. The staff packed their belongings, put on their coats and hats and got ready to get off work.

A middle-aged man walked out of the small office. Everyone quickly stood up and greeted the man respectfully or affectionately.

"Hello, Deputy Director Xu."

"Old Xu, are you leaving?"

"Would you like to go get some drinks?"

Xu Weimin, deputy director of the Organization Department, smiled and waved his hand: "No, it's too cold today. It's better to go home early.

It’s not like you don’t know that Xu suffered frostbite when he was working in the north, and his knees are in unbearable pain in winter, maybe next time.”

"Ouch."

The person who invited him to drink patted his forehead and said, "Look at my memory, I actually forgot about this. Okay, let's get together again when we have a chance."

By the way, I heard that something big happened in the Secret Service, and that group of agents were ambushed while enforcing the law. What happened?"

This person mysteriously pulled Xu Weimin to a corner, looked around at the movement, made sure no one was paying attention to them, and asked in a low voice.

"What about this..."

Xu Weimin gave it up and calmly took out the cigarette case from his arms, took out a cigarette and lit it, and glanced at the other party with a smile.

The speaker became anxious: "Oh, my Deputy Director Xu, who doesn't know that you are well-informed? Please tell me about it quickly.

The world has been so chaotic recently. At the beginning of the year, there was a plague among the Japanese, and countless people died. Even the locusts were almost gone.

If we hadn't found a special medicine, I'm afraid Japan would be doomed. God is really blind. It would be great if all these bastards were dead.

There was also Director Dai who went to Hong Kong City and was detained by the British. Although he was later released, these incidents make people feel panicked."

Japanese plague.

Dai Chunfeng was arrested.

Xu Weimin nodded silently. This year was indeed a bit chaotic. All parties encountered a lot of trouble, including the underground party.

As Qiu Chan's liaison, the codename Old K is known to the chief. This is an honor and a burden.

The group of people who came back from Red Russia actually asked the organization to hand over Qiu Chan to the underground Party International in order to facilitate their work.

This is simply a fool's dream. There is no need to explain how valuable an intelligence officer who has penetrated the top levels of the National Government is.

The Red Russians want to ask them to hand over the most important intelligence channels with a single order, but they underestimate the Chinese underground party members.

Faced with a mountain of pressure, the chief directly denied the existence of Qiu Chan and classified his intelligence team as top secret.

"Old Xu? Old Xu?"

Xu Weimin, who was thinking, was awakened by the call beside him. He slowly raised his head to look at his anxious colleagues and replied lightly.

"Don't worry, no matter what happens, it has nothing to do with us. It's the Secret Service that is checking the smuggling and human trafficking business in the city.

Are people who engage in these two businesses easy to mess with? On that day, they sent people to attack the head of the secret service investigating the case, and many people died.

I heard from an old colleague from the Central Party Committee that Shangfeng was extremely angry about this incident and ordered the City Defense Headquarters and the Police Department to solve the case as soon as possible.

Tomorrow the three parties involved will hold a closed-door meeting to jointly discuss and resolve the case, but I am disgusted and everyone knows the reasons."

After he finished speaking, he blew out a puff of smoke and showed a knowing expression on his face. Matters in the government should never be dealt with based on common sense.

The person who asked the question smiled and shut his mouth decisively, because in any illegal business, big figures in the party and state would get involved.

This matter will probably go unsolved. Anyway, the unlucky ones are the spies, so they should be regarded as repaying their debts for the sins they committed before.

Anyway, I can’t say this anymore,

It would be taboo to say so.

Xu Weimin patted the other party on the shoulder, walked out of the Jinling Party Headquarters with his briefcase in hand, and slowly walked back to his residence on Zhuque Street.

After carefully checking the door and the safety signs inside the house, he went to the secret room and sat for a while, waiting for the communication time to take out the radio.

He held the grenade matchlock in his hand, powered on, and adjusted the frequency. After completing this series of preparations, he slowly put on the headphones.

A faint beeping sound sounded in the earphones. Xu Weimin was recording the contents of the secret message while paying attention to the movements outside the secret room.

Five minutes later, he quickly turned off the power of the radio station, spread out the code book, lowered his head and deciphered the coded message he had just received.

“The Nationalist Government signed an equipment purchase contract with Germany, involving various types of advanced artillery, and sent commissioners to the West to inspect their performance.

Specifically include:

S5-106 20mm machine gun,

Flak18 37mm anti-aircraft machine gun,

SK anti-aircraft gun

PAK37 37mm combat anti-cannon,

L/13 75mm infantry gun,

LeIG18 75mm infantry gun,

Bofors M1930 75mm mountain gun,

Krupp M1903 75mm 29x field gun,

LeFH18 105mm howitzer,

sFH18/32x and 30x 150mm howitzers,

SK C/28 150 mm fortress gun.

It is judged that the national government may use the above-mentioned equipment for encirclement and suppression, and some of the equipment has been distributed to the Central Army and some front-line troops.

The power of these artillery pieces is truly astonishing, causing heavy losses to the personnel of the International Column. Do not relax your vigilance, remember! Remember! Qiu Chan."

Xu Weimin's face was a little solemn. He rarely saw Qiu Chan repeatedly emphasizing one thing in the message. It seemed that the problem was indeed serious.

In May of this year, due to the increasing pressure of the Japanese, the National Federation for National Salvation from all walks of life was established in Shanghai, and public opinion was aroused.

In addition, the organization publicly proposed a joint anti-Japanese initiative, and the government, under pressure from all parties, stated that it would maintain the integrity of its territorial sovereignty.

High-level negotiations between the Kuomintang and the underground parties were also to be held to deal with the Japanese aggression, but only the talk was heard but no actual actions were seen.

Judging from Qiu Chan's information, this is entirely a delaying tactic by the National Government, and the ultimate goal is still to completely eliminate the underground party.

"Wang Ba Dan!"

Xu Weimin smashed the table with hatred. Now the Japanese are aggressive and the country and nation are under the threat of annihilation and genocide.

As a government, the national government does not think about how to resist foreign humiliation and is busy wiping out underground parties all day long. Do we have to wait until the country is destroyed and the family is destroyed before we regret it?

After a long time, he adjusted his mood and forwarded the message to his superiors. Then he restored the secret room to its original state, sat on the sofa and picked up a cup of hot tea.

Qiu Chan's information is as timely, efficient, and critical as usual. With the exact information about these equipment, it will be up to the Fruit Party to deny it.

Speaking of which, the two of them have been cooperating for almost two years. He has been speculating on the identity of the other party, but has not found any clues.

attendant's room,

secret service,

Secret Service Headquarters,

Military commission organ.

These are the only places where such confidential information can be obtained. Xu Weimin was thoughtful and tapped the armrest of the sofa with his fingers.

At the same time, the atmosphere in Hong Gong Temple was very tense, and the secret agents all had dark faces, because this year had been so unfavorable for the Secret Service.

First, Director Dai was disgraced by the British in Hong Kong City and was forced to suspend his duties and reflect at home, making everyone in Jinling watch their jokes.

The aftermath of this incident is not over yet, the people in the Intelligence Section were ambushed by gangsters again. When has the Secret Service ever been so angry?

What is even more chilling is that the two deputy chiefs, Zheng Tingbing and Zhang Yifu, chose to protect themselves rather than avenge their dead brothers.

Everyone usually does their work with their heads in their belts, but when they are bullied no one comes forward. You can imagine how low morale is.

It's a pity that Deputy Director Zuo was not here to perform his duties, otherwise those bastards would have been beaten to death and thrown into the Yangtze River to feed the fish.

"Buzz buzz~"

Suddenly there was a roar in the sky, and a spy looked up and saw a Ford three-engine plane flying towards the Ming Palace Airport.

Inside the plane, a second lieutenant wearing a flying cap opened the door, walked to the seat in the middle of the cabin and raised his hands in a military salute.

"Report to Colonel Zuo, we have arrived and are expected to land in five minutes. The tower said that your personnel are waiting near the runway to pick up the plane."

"OK, thanks."

Zuo Zhong put his cell phone in his pocket, nodded to the pilot who came to report, and then turned his gaze to Jinling City outside the porthole.

Looking at the dots of lights on the ground, his memory suddenly returned to the way back to China when he evacuated from Tokyo a few months ago.

"Immediately go to Germany after receiving the order to participate in military equipment procurement negotiations. I will be fully responsible for the security of the meeting and make sure there are no mistakes."
