Dai Li had long suspected "Gong Changlin", but he had not moved him for all reasons.

He hoped that Meng Shaoyuan could help him verify the authenticity of this person's identity.

From his point of view, there is nothing wrong with Dai Li's approach.

But as a result, the entire military command Shanghai Station was almost wiped out.

"I was wrong."

Dai Li actually admitted his mistake frankly in front of a subordinate: "I ignored the determination of Gong Changlin, and also ignored the energy that a person can burst out once he finds an opportunity after being suppressed for so many years." One of my personal mistakes almost cost you all the martyrs, and I should review it. ”

"Mr. Dai is not wrong." Meng Shaoyuan said: "If I were in Mr. Dai's position, I would do the same." Each class thinks about the problem in a different way, I think about how to complete the tasks assigned above, Mr. Dai is different, what I consider is how the entire military should run. There are so many people up and down the military command, and if any of them is not handled well, it will cause a chain reaction, which is exactly what Mr. Dai needs to worry about. ”

This is not only telling the truth, but also quietly exonerating Dai Li.

"You're getting better at sycophancy." Dai Li smiled: "In short, I am still responsible, fortunately, I didn't misread a person, you!" ”

His eyes were fixed on Meng Shaoyuan: "The situation is so critical, at the critical moment, you were able to resolve the crisis in time and save the military command Shanghai incubation area, which is very good." Otherwise, how can I face our comrades. But this Liu Chuan is really hateful, have you ever thought about how to deal with him, Shao Yuan? ”

"I had a meeting with District Mayor Zhou and Secretary Cheng before." Meng Shaoyuan immediately reported: "They mean to retaliate immediately, but I think that the most important thing at the moment is not retaliation, but whether to use this opportunity to successfully send those Soviet pilots out. ”

"Oh, looks like you've thought about it for a long time?"

"Yes, even if Yanagawa's whereabouts are discovered immediately, it will not be so easy for us to kill or capture this person alive." Meng Shaoyuan replied calmly: "The top priority now is to send those Soviet pilots out immediately, Wuhan urgently needs them to join the war." Also, since Mr. Dai is now in Shanghai, I am also ready to send you away together. ”

"I've just arrived, and you're about to leave." Dai Li made a rare joke in front of his subordinates: "Cheng, you are the king of Shanghai, I am a guest, the guest is as he pleases, what you say to do, I will cooperate with you." ”

As he said this, his mind went through for a moment, but he didn't figure out how to connect the two things.

It doesn't take much effort to think about it, the methods that Meng Shaoyuan has come up with many times are incredible.

"Mr. Dai." Meng Shaoyuan hesitated for a moment: "That, what is the king of Shanghai, I haven't called myself that." ”

He also has some concerns, and he has no opinion on calling himself a "public enemy of Japan" and "the strongest agent on the surface", but he only calls himself "King So-and-so", which is not a good thing.

The authority can give you enormous rights, provided that they are within his control.

Meng Shaoyuan was a crab in Shanghai and walked sideways, but to say that he was Dai Li's subordinates, and the Shanghai Navy was still under Dai Li's jurisdiction.

Moreover, there are also Zhou Weilong and Cheng Yiming in Shanghai.

I'm afraid that this inexplicable "Shanghai King" has made a taboo with my boss and colleagues.

"Why are you getting bolder?" Dai Li saw through the thoughts of his subordinates at a glance: "The Meng Shaoyuan I know, but he has always been lawless, and he is not afraid of being stabbed by the sky, and he has shot you twice." Shanghai King? What's so bad about Shanghai King? Du Yuesheng is known as the emperor of Shanghai, why can't I be called the king of Shanghai?

Now, in Chongqing and Wuhan, there are quite a few people within the military command who call you that, 'King of Shanghai, Young Master Meng.'" And there are also some people, who, as soon as they find an opportunity, say in front of me that your life is corrupt and arrogant and depraved, and those who say these things, do you know how I deal with them? I sent them to the front, and I sent them wherever there was danger. ”

Meng Shaoyuan didn't dare to say a word.

Dai Li said lightly: "Why do you do this? I have an account in my heart, and the people in the big rear are used to being comfortable, and I never know how dangerous the front line is. Whenever they hear some news about chasing after the wind and shadows, they will immediately make a big fuss, and they can't wait to immediately solve a shocking case, showing how capable they are, and such an incident happened some time ago in the Enemy Engineering Section of the Military Intelligence Department of the Military Commission, which almost caused an uproar. ”

This happened in February of this year.

Zhao Cunliang, a senior member of the enemy engineering section of the Military Intelligence Department, was ordered to carry out rebellion work against the commander of a certain division of the puppet army. It lasted almost a month, and it was very fruitful, and the two sides have talked specifically about the evacuation and reorganization of the battlefield after the battle.

In the process of contact, the two sides could not avoid gambling, and Zhao Cunliang also asked the division commander to find a few secret prostitutes.

I don't know how this matter was known to a certain important person in Chongqing, who was also well fed up, saying that the War of Resistance was so difficult, and there were still people who were degenerate and corrupt in the name of intelligence, and they must be strictly investigated.

As soon as the dignitaries said this, Zhao Cunliang was immediately transferred back for review, and he was interrogated and punished.

The punishment was still a small matter, and the division commander of the puppet army couldn't contact Zhao Cunliang for more than ten days, became suspicious, refused to conduct any further negotiations, and became a traitor with all his heart.

During the Battle of Wuhan, the puppet army division closely cooperated with the Japanese army, causing great trouble to **.

"Originally, the situation would have been different, but it was just because of this important person, all the hard work in the early stage was in vain, and it added a strong opponent to us out of thin air. These people do not understand the peculiarities of intelligence work at all. Dai Li sneered: "That dignitary, as soon as he arrived in Chongqing, immediately bought a luxurious villa, delicacies from the mountains and seas every day, and raised a little wife outside." Hehe, only the governor is allowed to set fires, and the people are not allowed to light lamps.

Such an important person is a kind of person, and there is another kind of person, who is our colleague, who has been on the front line, but he spends his days in the chaos, and he doesn't do anything serious, so he likes to inquire about those gossip and lace news. As soon as he got the opportunity, he said that this is not good, that is not good, that person is full of shortcomings, and he must be reused.

This kind of person is the most hateful, colleagues and colleagues, just like husband and wife, they need to help each other and get along with each other, but he just doesn't, he can't see that you live better than him, he can't see that you have more money than him, and more women than him, so he has to find out how to pull you off the horse before he is satisfied. As for what benefits he can get? He doesn't care. ”

Meng Shaoyuan heard that Dai Li seemed to be very angry today.

In fact, there is a reason for this.

Before he came to Shanghai, Ye Cheng, the head of the Fujian Provincial Security Department, did not buy Dai Li's account and used the power of Chen Yi, chairman of Fujian Province, to punish Zhang Chao, the head of the military command station sent by Dai Li to Fujian.

In order to take this breath, Dai Li naturally wanted to settle accounts with Ye Cheng.

But Ye Cheng was born in the third phase of Huangpu, served as the chairman's attendant and aide-de-camp, and was also the chairman's confidant.

When Dai Li found the chairman of the committee and asked to punish Ye Cheng, the chairman did not agree, and Dai Li knelt down. The chairman of the committee rebuked him for not having a personality and blackmailing the leader.

After Dai Li's withdrawal, he wrote a long resignation report and handed it in the next day. The chairman of the committee is not allowed.

Later, seeing that things were about to get bigger, Hu Zongnan asked Ye Cheng to go to the northwest to be the division commander, and this was the end of the matter. It's just that this matter has always made Dai Li haunted.

However, from another point of view, Dai Li's kneeling for his subordinates, and his subordinates thought that Dai Li dared to carry the burden and was very moved.

Tang Zong also commented: "Who can do what you kneel and plead, who is willing to do it unless someone can't do it."

It is also difficult to wear a hat, and he has to be responsible for the normal operation of such a huge organization as the military command, and he has to deal with the intricate personnel relations in the officialdom, and no one knows when there will be an emergency.

"You people, especially you, Meng Shaoyuan." Dai Li pointed at Meng Shaoyuan: "Every day is a person who is desperate with his head there, today I don't know if I will be alive tomorrow, eat better, live better, find a few women, it's not a big deal, let's take you as an analogy, Meng Shaoyuan."

You, Young Master Meng, are in Shanghai, living a luxurious life and greedy for beauty, don't you know about me? You've confessed it to me, but why don't I care about you? So indulge you? This Liuchuan incident almost wiped out the entire army in the Shanghai lurking area under our military command, and you saved us by yourself, and with this alone, as long as you don't commit treason, I can endure anything with you.

Sometimes, character and ability are not directly proportional. Therefore, we have such a saying throughout the ages, saying that corrupt officials are capable officials, and cool officials are loyal ministers. Although this is not accurate, there is some truth to it. You let go and do it, those things in your private life, as long as you don't do it too out of line, I don't care about you. ”

When Meng Shaoyuan heard this, he said: "Mr. Dai, this time I want to take the opportunity of sending Soviet pilots to transfer my family to Wuhan and Chongqing. ”

Dai Li was stunned for a moment, and then asked, "What's the matter, the hostages are here?" ”

Hostage? At this level, Meng Shaoyuan really never thought that he just knew that the Shanghai Public Concession would fall sooner or later, so he just sent his family out of safety as soon as possible.

Dai Li really misunderstood: "Shao Yuan, I already see your loyalty." It's okay to send your family to Chongqing and tell those who have ulterior motives that your wife has been sent to the rear, and your Meng Shaoyuan's loyalty can be seen from the sun and the moon! ”

Meng Shaoyuan couldn't cry or laugh.

What's the hostage involved? Come on, since you Mr. Dai think so, then let's do it.

"Ah, Shaoyuan." Dai Li spoke again: "You just know about my arrival in Shanghai, and there is no need for others to inform them." ”
