Two days later, in room No. 6 of Yalixi Restaurant in the Shanghai Public Concession, Chai Liang sat opposite a man in his thirties.

Chai Liang first asked, "Sir, your surname is yours?"

"I am not allowed to have your surname Zhang, a beautiful article."

"Mr. Zhang does the silk business?"

"No, I do cotton and I also do some paper business. The business turnover is not good, so I asked Mr. Dai to protect him and raise some funds."

The code word was confirmed correctly, so Chai Liang then put a small suitcase on the dining table and pushed it over.

The man took the box, gently opened the lid, checked it, and nodded. The two of them did not communicate too much. The man nodded and signaled, turned around and opened the door, and left quickly.

This man is Lu Jian, the intelligence director of Shanghai Station. He was ordered to receive funds for an activity here today.

Now that the Shanghai station is in a difficult situation, there is no money or gun, Chen Hongchi asked the headquarters for help one after another, and only informed him to come here to collect the funds today.

Chai Liang came here today and was also following Wan Mulin's instructions. It turned out that in order to solve the funding problem of Shanghai Station, the bureau asked Wan Mulin to hand over the funds for the real estate sale to Shanghai Station through Yue Sheng.

He and Chai Liang didn't know each other's identity, so they met each other's code words and quickly handed over them.

Lu Jian walked on the street under the night, and after doing counter-tracking on the way back, he confirmed that no one was following him, and then returned to the Shanghai station office.

Since the first batch of personnel arrived, the Shanghai Station soon resumed work. Their intelligence station was not located in the French Concession, but in the public Concession.

Chen Hongchi learned from the previous lessons of the Shanghai Station and believed that the forces of the Green Gang in the French Concession were everywhere, and the Green Gang disciples were very unreliable and were easily bought and used, which would pose a great threat to the existence of the intelligence station. Finally, he decided to choose a suitable location in the public concession.

Seeing Lu Jian rushing back, Chen Hongchi quickly asked, "How is it? Are everything going well?"

Lu Jian smiled and patted the bag, handed it to Chen Hongchi, nodded and said, "Don't worry, webmaster, there is no problem. I have checked it all, and the number is correct!"

Chen Hongchi took it and opened it and looked at it. His brows suddenly stretched out, and he smiled quickly, and said, "The problem has been solved. Yesterday, Wenbo received a large amount of arms from the intelligence department. Now the funds are in place. The headquarters has no choice but to support us this time. Now that we have some guns, it is time to give the Japanese and pseudo-government a little color to see."

It turned out that just last night, the operation team leader Yang Wenbo retrieved a large number of arms according to a warehouse address sent by the headquarters. Surprisingly, the number of these arms far exceeded their estimates, and was enough to equip the operation team members of the Shanghai station, which made everyone overjoyed.

Compared to Chen Hongchi's confidence, Lu Jian was a little hesitant. He knew that everything in the Shanghai station is now started, and all preparations are not ready yet. It is easy to have problems when it is issuing attacks in a hurry. He looked at Chen Hongchi and finally advised: "Webmaster, we have not yet established our foothold and our identity has not been resolved. We do not have a suitable place or safe house in the city. It is probably a bit early to enter the city."

Chen Hongchi smiled and said, "The thing we have money, the problem is not big, and the identity problem is easy to solve. Although we do not have the ability to forge the good citizen certificates in the city, I have sent someone to quietly purchase a lot of refugees who have just entered the concession, so we will use it for the time being, so that we will have no problem in the city.

It’s not that I’m anxious, mainly because there are a few days left to New Year’s Day. I heard that the pseudo-government is going to hold a grand dinner this time. All government departments in Shanghai, including all Japanese departments, will also attend. The specifications are very high and the opportunity is rare. I want to join in the fun!"

The pseudo-government has made a lot of noise this time. It not only invited powerful celebrities from all walks of life, but also invited many people from the Shanghai entertainment industry, such as movie stars and socialites, to rehearse the performances of banquets, so these news can't be hidden from the Shanghai station.

Chen Hongchi felt that if the banquet could be destroyed, even if the main characters could not be hunted down, even if it was just a storm, it would be enough to make the pseudo-government lose all its face in the eyes of the Japanese and the world. This is indeed a rare opportunity.

Chen Hongchi has always been decisive, so he decided to enter the city early, prepare to show his strength and make some achievements.

Seeing that Chen Hongchi had made up his mind, Lu Jian, as a subordinate, naturally had to obey his orders. He nodded and agreed: "Then I will bring some people into the city as soon as possible to investigate the specific situation and see if there is any chance."

Chen Hongchi waved his hand and said decisively: "I'll go with you. Don't worry. If you don't understand the situation, I won't do it rashly. We can't shrink back, but we won't do it recklessly. This is the first fire in the reconstruction of our Shanghai station. There must be no problems."

Chai Liang handed over the funds and rushed back to Wanmulin's villa to hand over the service. The vehicle stopped at the gate. Chai Liang got out of the car. Just as he was about to enter the gate, he heard a low call: "A Si!"

The voice was very familiar, and Chai Liang suddenly became nervous. He turned around and saw that a figure slowly walked into the light of the street lamp not far away. Chai Liang couldn't help but be shocked. He ran forward a few steps, came to the person, and exclaimed in a low voice: "Brother Chang!"

The person who came was his senior brother whom he had not seen for a long time, and his comrade-in-arms Xu Yongchang.

Xu Yongchang was also excited when he saw Chai Liang. He patted Chai Liang's arm and whispered: "Let's go, find a place to talk slowly!"

Chai Liang and Xu Yongchang were together in the Qing Gang since childhood and were under Yue Sheng's disciple. Xu Yongchang was a few years older than Chai Liang. He always took care of Chai Liang as his younger brother and had a deep affection. Later, the two joined the Jiangsu and Zhejiang Movement together, fighting side by side on the battlefield, fighting bloody battles. This kind of comrade-in-arms naturally became deeper, not to mention that in the end, Xu Yongchang was also Chai Liang's guide, and re-introduced him into the Shanghai Intelligence Department and became a member of the anti-Japanese soldiers again.

So when Chai Liang saw Xu Yongchang, he was extremely happy. Without saying a word, he quickly left with Xu Yongchang.

The two of them came to a nearby coffee shop for a while and found a secluded compartment.

As soon as Chai Liang sat down, he couldn't wait to ask, "Brother Chang, aren't you in southern Jiangsu? Why did you suddenly return to Shanghai?"

When Xu Yongchang heard this, his face darkened, he sighed lightly, and said, "It's hard to say anything!"

So he told Chai Liang all the things, and also his current situation, and finally said, "Captain Wei Minglang finally surrendered to the enemy and asked us to surrender together. I originally wanted to fight with them to the end, but after thinking about it, it was a loss to die in the prison of No. 76 in vain. It was really a loss. It was a matter of cost. So I finally signed the letter. I have been thinking about how to find the organization in the past few days. I want Director Huo to give me a proof that I find an opportunity to escape back to southern Jiangsu and then go to the army. This life will not be a loss if I fight on the battlefield!"

When Chai Liang heard that Xu Yongchang had been captured and was still surrendered to the subordinates of the No. 76 Agent Headquarters, he was shocked.

He knew that the two brigades in southern Jiangsu were wiped out in Jingze, but he did not expect that Xu Yongchang was one of them.

His eyes were fixed on Xu Yongchang, hesitating in his heart, not knowing how to take Xu Yongchang's words.

He believed what Xu Yongchang said. After all, he knew Xu Yongchang very well, but intelligence work should not tolerate any negligence. If Xu Yongchang had problems, it would be too great to have a threat to the organization.

You should know that the members of the entire intelligence team he belonged to joined the Shanghai Intelligence Department after Xu Yongchang's introduction. If Xu Yongchang really surrendered to the enemy, at least the identities of the seven of them would have been exposed.

This situation must be reported immediately, and the above will identify Xu Yongchang. He cannot make decisions without authorization.

So Chai Liang pondered for a moment and finally said, "Brother Chang, your situation is too special. I absolutely believe in you, but you also know that the betrayal of the former Shanghai stationmaster Wang Hanmin has greatly affected our organization, and we have to be careful in everything.

I can only report your situation to the top. As for the results, it will be decided by the top, but don’t worry, I believe there will be good news soon.”

Xu Yongchang came this time, and naturally knew that with his special circumstances, the process would not be so smooth if he wanted to retrieve the organization. He nodded and agreed: "I know all these. You report them as soon as possible. I don't want to stay for a day on the 76th, and I must return to the team as soon as possible."

Chai Liang nodded and agreed, suddenly remembered something, and asked, "Brother Chang, do you say you are now affiliated to the Second Brigade of No. 76, mainly obeying Wang Hanmin's command?"

Xu Yongchang nodded and said, "Yes, according to Wei Minglang, we are directly under the leadership of Wang Hanmin."

"Then can you get close to Wang Hanmin?"

Xu Yongchang was stunned and shook his head and said, "Except for meeting several times during the interrogation, he has not seen him since then. This person is very cautious and has not appeared in the Second Brigade yet."

"Then your current position?"

"I am now serving as the captain of a squadron. Because the Second Brigade was destroyed during the turmoil, the members of the rebuilt are all disciples of the Qing Gang and some newly recruited local young and strong people. The backbone is all recruited to rescue officers this time. Although I am not a formal military commander, I have also arranged a considerable position."

Chai Liang felt secretly happy, that is to say, in the future, Xu Yongchang will be able to get close to Wang Hanmin, which is very important.

He quickly said, "Okay, Brother Chang, don't do anything when you go back, just wait for our people to contact you, but you have to be patient. This identification process may take some time."

Xu Yongchang nodded and said, "Okay, I know, I'll wait for your good news! As Si, you are very different from before. You speak in an orderly and steady manner. You've still made progress!"
Chapter completed!
