Every time Dai Li summoned Meng Shaoyuan in Shanghai, he didn't have to think about it, there must be some special task to be handed over to him.

It's still the old rule, and as soon as he came up, he praised Meng Shaoyuan's outstanding performance in the assassination of Kong Rusen.

"The assassination of Kong Rusen is very good, and what I didn't expect is that you would actually use such a method, and moreover, you killed two birds with one stone, annihilating a squadron of the Japanese army."

Dai Lian said, taking out something from the cupboard: "This is my personal reward for you." ”

Is that...... A bottle of ...... Beer!

"Mr. Dai, beer? You can ...... That's generous...... Thank you so much. Meng Shaoyuan couldn't cry or laugh.

Do you see a reward for your subordinates, a reward beer?

Let's have two cups, and we'll be able to drink it together on the spot.

"Courtesy is light and affection is heavy." Dai Li actually made a distinction for his stinginess.

Yes, yes, when you asked me to take a few million, why didn't you say that the courtesy was light and affectionate?

Meng Shaoyuan didn't go around in circles with him: "Mr. Dai, what are the tasks?" ”

"yes, there's another mission." Dai Li's expression became serious: "You are the leader of the secret killing team, have you carried out any activities?" ”

"It is being formed and has not yet fully launched." Meng Shaoyuan stopped joking.

Dai Li nodded: "As soon as possible, in addition to the secret killing team, I have also prepared a '10,000-person special team' to ensure the victory of our army in Shanghai." ”

The "10,000 Rangers" and the "Secret Killing Team" were established almost at the same time.

This Einsatzgruppen is mainly composed of second-line and perimeter agents. Its mission is to search for traitors and Japanese spies, protect the safety of electric wires, bridges, and ferries, and rescue injured soldiers and civilians; On the one hand, rush to transport materials to help the front team.

Professional things need to be left to professionals.

There is no doubt that it is a good thing for ordinary people to organize themselves to support the frontline of the war of resistance, such as rescuing the wounded and transporting supplies.

But this requires a special person to command.

Failure to do so will result in unnecessary casualties and unnecessary chaos among civilian organizations.

In the first month of the war in Shanghai, the government finally noticed this, and the task was also handed over to Dai Li.

Meng Shaoyuan still knew that during the entire Battle of Songhu, Dai Li was not only responsible for intelligence, he had too many things to manage.

The ruler is short and the inch is long, and everyone has their own strengths and weaknesses.

If he carried out a certain task alone, Meng Shaoyuan confirmed that he was better than Dai Li. But to manage such a big mess, he is still far from Dai Li.

In Shanghai, Dai Li worked from 6 a.m. to 1 p.m. every day, eating for 10 minutes, then continuing to work, sometimes going to the front.

In the evening, if there are no special circumstances, they must rush back to Nanjing to report to the chairman of the committee and coordinate the front-line work.

Sometimes Meng Shaoyuan wondered if Dai Li's body structure was different from others, and he didn't need to rest?

Meng Shaoyuan often thinks of his friend Xiao Glasses' evaluation of Dai Li: "This person is lustful, colorless and unhappy." But he is lustful and does not delay work. This man's hands were stained with blood, the blood of the people and other parties on one hand, and the blood of the Japanese on the other. His life was mixed, but throughout the Anti-Japanese War, he was worthy of this country. ”

This is also the reason why Meng Shaoyuan respects Dai Li.

"The secret killing team must get a good grasp of the formal work." Dai Li's words changed sharply: "Now, I will assign the first task to your secret killing team. ”

"Please Mr. Dai."

"You go and supervise the execution of a mission."

What do you mean?

Is there still a task to supervise?

Doesn't this make it clear that Dai Li is not at ease with the people who carry out the task?

Dai Li looked at him: "Do you know Zhou Fengshan?" ”

Zhou Fengshan? Of course I do.

Meng Shaoyuan usually has free time, but he has been carefully studying the archives.

"Back to Mr. Dai, I know."

Meng Shaoyuan immediately said: "Zhou Fengshan, Zhou Fengqi's cousin. Zhou Fengqi was the commander of the 26th Army and the deputy commander of the Shanghai Martial Law Command, and Zhou Fengshan was his chief of staff. Later, Zhou Fengqi was transferred to the chairman of Zhejiang Province, and Zhou Fengshan was appointed director of the Zhejiang Provincial Government.

When the chairman of the committee responded to the call and returned to the government, Zhou Fengqi resigned and lived in Shanghai. His younger brother, Zhou Fengshan, also resigned from all positions with him and settled in Shanghai. When the Anti-Japanese War broke out, he was invited by Governor Bai Chongxi to arrive in Nanjing, and it is said that it will be reactivated. ”

"He wasn't activated." Dai Li sneered: "He didn't go back to Shanghai, but went to his old family, preaching everywhere that 'the War of Resistance will be defeated, and China will perish'." ”

"Are you going to kill this person?"

"Not for the time being, this person has some influence in Zhejiang, especially in his hometown of Changxing. There is no real evidence to prove that he has defected to the enemy, and killing him will cause turmoil, and the chairman of the committee means to wait and see what happens, and give him a stern warning. There is another reason, he used to be my boss, and I worked in Zhou Fengqi's department, so this time can be regarded as an opportunity for me to give my old boss. ”

Dai Li said coldly:

He left his cousin Zhou Fengshan in Shanghai and was responsible for secret contact with the Japanese, waiting for the time to turn over to the Japanese. So this time, I sent a team to collect evidence of the rebellion of the Zhou brothers from Zhou Fengshan, and find the right time to kill Zhou Fengshan, hoping that the death of my brother can alert Zhou Fengqi. ”

That's weird, since I've already sent an assassination team, what else do I need to oversee? Meng Shaoyuan was puzzled.

If the executor is unreliable, then a different person will be needed. Besides, isn't the whole group unreliable?

Unless......

Meng Shaoyuan actually figured it out: "Mr. Dai, Shaoyuan will definitely do his best to assist the team to successfully complete the task." ”

Dai Li smiled.

The corners of Dai Li's mouth flashed with a smile that was difficult to catch without paying attention.

Not to let yourself supervise, but to let yourself assist in this task.

What is the origin of that group?

It stands to reason that Young Master Meng is calling for wind and rain in Shanghai, and he still has a lot of positions, and now he actually needs him Young Master Meng to assist others in completing tasks?

"It's oversight, not assistance." Dai Li wanted to cover up: "Your rank is much higher than that of the task team leader, how can you assist?" It can only be supervision. ”

How much higher rank do I have than the other person?

Meng Shaoyuan had a bitter face: "Mr. Dai, you can tell me clearly." What the hell is going on? If you don't make it clear, I don't know what to do. ”

"This ......" Dai Li actually began to hesitate, this is not like his style in the past, after a while, he said: "The person in charge of this mission is called Chen Hua." ”

Chen Hua? Which Chen Hua?

Slow down, it's not that Chen Hua, right?

The Chen Hua, known as the "No. 1 Female Agent of the Military Command"?

Of course, the so-called first female agent must have exaggerated elements, and being called so is largely due to the fact that the person who took this nickname wanted to pat Dai Li's ass.

However, Dai Li's title for this first female agent is:

"Huamei"!

That's one of Dai Li's favorite mistresses.

There is also a sentence that cannot be verified by the truth or falsehood, and can only be seen in the memoirs, it is said that after Chen Hua persuaded Liu Geqing, Li Furang and other nine iron-blooded killers to serve Dai Li, Dai Li once said this sentence to her:

"Sister Hua, half of my country was fought down for me by you."

This statement is not very credible.

Meng Shaoyuan believes that with Dai Li's character, it is unlikely that he will say such things to a woman, especially the sentence "My country", which will definitely not come out of Dai Li's mouth.

This country is not Dai Li's, but the chairman of the committee.

There can be no fault in the slightest.

But no matter what, it is enough to prove the importance of Chen Hua in Dai Li's mind.

Even on the last night before Dai Li's death, he spent it at Chen Hua's place.

Chen Hua, born in poverty, was a young prostitute at the age of 13.

At the age of 16, he followed Yang Hucongliang, commander of the Shanghai Garrison Bureau under President Sun Da. This Yang Hu is the sworn brother of the chairman. Chen Hua leaned against the big tree of Yang Hu and made steady progress.

In 1932, Chen Hua met Dai Li by chance and defected to Dai Li.

Chen Hua has outstanding appearance, quick thinking, and sociability, and is also known as "the first beauty of Lixing Club".

Now, Meng Shaoyuan completely figured out that Chen Hua was responsible for assassinating Zhou Fengshan, but Dai Li was worried that she would lose, so he arranged for his real No. 1 ace agent Meng Shaoyuan to assist her.

Speaking of supervision, isn't it actually to protect "Huamei"?

Young Master Meng, I am not only an agent now, but also a part-time bodyguard?

This matter is a double-edged sword, serving as a bodyguard for the boss's mistress, and if you do it well, you will gain the trust of the boss even more.

But what if you want to do it?

All the hard work I had done was in vain.

Meng Shaoyuan had a wicked smile on his face: "Mr. Dai, Shaoyuan promises to do his best to assist Chen Hua in completing this mission." ”

"I'll tell you again, it's oversight, not assistance." Dai Li, who was ready to call it this with an iron heart: "Speaking of which, you are the commander and her immediate boss, how can there be a boss to assist his subordinates in completing the task?" ”

"Mr. Dai, if you want to say that, then this matter will not be easy to handle." Meng Shaoyuan grinned: "Why can't the boss assist his subordinates to complete the task?" Shao Yuan encountered difficulties when performing the task, when did you not help Mr. Dai? Besides, I always talk about supervision, when this task is carried out, is she listening to me or am I listening to her? ”

Dai Li was speechless for a while, and after a while, he smiled bitterly: "You are a monkey spirit, forget it, you can say whatever you want." Shao Yuan, Chen Hua is a very smart person and has some ability, but she has never personally gone to the front line to perform tasks, especially assassination missions, you are far more experienced than her, please. ”

Understood, my Mr. Dai.

You are ready to promote Chen Hua, but you always have to find a reason for promotion, right? At the very least, there is one task to complete.

Collect information on Zhou Fengqi's collusion with the Japanese, assassinate Zhou Fengshan, complete this task, and then promote, then no one will have an opinion.

"Mr. Dai, don't worry about this matter."
