Two days later, in the evening, in room 6 of the Yalixi restaurant in Shanghai's public concession, Chai Liang sat opposite a man in his thirties.

Chai Liang first asked, "Sir, your surname?" ”

"Exempt from the chapter of your surname, the chapter of the splendid article."

"Mr. Zhang is in the silk business?"

"No, I'm doing cotton, and I also do a little paper business, and the business turnover is not good, so I asked Mr. Dai to guarantee and raise some funds."

The code words were confirmed, and Chai Liang put a small suitcase on the dining table and pushed it over.

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

This man is none other than Lu Jian, the intelligence director of the Shanghai station, who was also ordered to receive a sum of money for his activities here today.

Now that the Shanghai station is in financial distress and lacks money and guns, Chen Hongchi has asked the headquarters for help one after another, and only today has he been notified to come here to receive funds.

Chai Liang came today to be instructed by Wan Mulin, it turned out that in order to solve the financial problem of Shanghai Station, through Yue Sheng, let Wan Mulin transfer the funds of the real estate sold this time to Shanghai Station.

He and Chai Liang didn't know each other's identities, so they whispered to each other and quickly handed over.

Lu Jian walked on the street at night, and after making an anti-tracking action on the way back, he confirmed that no one was following, and then returned to the Shanghai station.

After the first personnel arrived, the Shanghai station quickly resumed its work, and their intelligence station was not located in the French Concession, but in the Public Concession.

Chen Hongchi learned the lessons of the previous Shanghai station, believing that the forces of the Green Gang in the French Concession were full of all corners, and the disciples of the Green Gang were very unreliable, easy to be bribed and used, and would pose a great threat to the existence of the intelligence station, so he finally decided to choose a suitable location in the public concession.

Seeing Lu Jian rushing back, Chen Hongchi hurriedly asked, "How is it?" Is everything going well? ”

Lu Jian patted the purse with a smile, handed the purse to Chen Hongchi, nodded and said, "Don't worry, stationmaster, there is no problem, I have checked it all, and the number is right!" ”

Chen Hongchi took it and opened it, his brows stretched suddenly, he smiled happily, and said: "This time the problem has been solved, yesterday Wenbo received a large amount of arms from the hands of the intelligence department, and now the funds are also in place, the headquarters has spared no effort to support us this time, and now that we have guns, it's time to give the Japanese and the puppet government a little color." ”

It turned out that just last night, Yang Wenbo, the captain of the operation team, retrieved a large amount of ammunition according to a warehouse address issued by the headquarters, and what was surprising was that the amount of this batch of ammunition far exceeded their estimate, which was enough to equip the action team members of the Shanghai station, which made everyone overjoyed.

Compared with Chen Hongchi's confidence, Lu Jian was a little hesitant, he knew that everything in Shanghai Station was a start-up, all preparations were not ready, and it was easy to go wrong if he hastily issued an attack, he looked at Chen Hongchi, and finally persuaded: "Stationmaster, we are now unstable, our identity has not been resolved, and there is no suitable foothold and safe house in the urban area, so I am afraid that it is still a little early to enter the urban area." ”

Chen Hongchi said with a smile: "The matter of the foothold, we have money, the problem is not big, and the identity problem is also very easy to solve, although we do not have the ability to forge the certificate of good citizenship in the urban area for the time being, but I have sent someone to quietly buy a lot from those refugees who have just entered the concession, and use it for the time being, so that we have no problem in the urban area."

It's not that I'm in a hurry, it's mainly that there are still a few days before New Year's Day, I heard that the puppet government is going to hold a grand dinner this time, and all government departments in Shanghai, including all departments of the Japanese, will also participate. ”

The puppet government has made a lot of moves this time, not only inviting powerful and celebrities from all walks of life, but also inviting many people in Shanghai's performing arts circles, such as movie stars and celebrities, to rehearse the performance program of the banquet, so these news cannot be hidden from the ears and eyes of Shanghai Station.

Chen Hongchi felt that if he could sabotage this banquet, even if he could not hunt down the main figures, even if he just caused some trouble, it would be enough to make the puppet government lose face in the eyes of the Japanese and the world, and this was indeed a rare opportunity.

Chen Hongchi has always acted decisively, so he decided to enter the city in advance, ready 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 orders, he nodded and agreed: "Then I will bring some people into the city as soon as possible, investigate the specific situation, and see if there is a chance." ”

Chen Hongchi waved his hand and said categorically: "I'll go with you, don't worry, if you don't find out the situation, I won't act rashly, we can't cower, but we won't be reckless, this is the first fire in the reconstruction of our Shanghai station, and there must be no problems." ”

Chai Liang handed over the funds and rushed back to Wan Mulin's villa, the vehicle stopped at the gate, Chai Liang got out of the car, and when he was about to enter the gate, he heard a low call: "Ah Si!" ”

This voice was very familiar, Chai Liang suddenly tightened his nerves, he looked back, only to see a figure slowly walking into the light of the street lamp in the dim place not far away, Chai Liang couldn't help but be shocked, ran forward in a few steps, came to the front of this person, and exclaimed in a low voice: "Brother Chang!" ”

The person who came was the same senior brother he hadn't seen for a long time, and he was also his comrade-in-arms Xu Yongchang.

Xu Yongchang was also excited when he saw Chai Liang, he patted Chai Liang's arm and said in a low voice: "Let's go, find a place to talk slowly!" ”

Chai Liang and Xu Yongchang have been fighting in the Green Gang since childhood, worshiping under Yue Sheng's door, Xu Yongchang is a few years older than Chai Liang, and he has always taken care of Chai Liang as a younger brother, with deep affection, and later the two joined the Jiangsu and Zhejiang Special Forces together, fighting side by side on the battlefield, bloody fighting, this comrade-in-arms is naturally deeper, not to mention, in the end, Xu Yongchang is still Chai Liang's guide, and he was reintroduced to the Shanghai Intelligence Department, and once again became a member of the anti-Japanese soldiers.

So when Chai Liang saw Xu Yongchang, he was also very happy in his heart, he didn't say a word, and left quickly with Xu Yongchang.

After a while, the two of them went to a nearby coffee shop to find a secluded cubicle.

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!" ”

So he told Chai Liang everything about everything, and told Chai Liang about his current situation, and finally said: "Captain Wei Minglang finally surrendered to the enemy, and let us throw it over together, I originally carried it to the end with them, but after thinking about it, it was a great loss to die in the prison of No. 76 in vain, how could I fight a few devils to make it worthwhile, so I finally signed, I have been thinking about how to get the organization back these days, I want Director Huo to give me a certificate, I find a chance to escape back to southern Jiangsu, If you go to the army again, you won't lose your life on the battlefield! ”

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

He knew that the two brigades in southern Jiangsu were all wiped out in the first battle of Jingze, but he didn't expect that Xu Yongchang would be one of them.

His eyes were firmly fixed on Xu Yongchang, and he hesitated in his heart, not knowing how to answer Xu Yongchang's words.

He believed what Xu Yongchang said, after all, he knew Xu Yongchang very well, but there was no room for negligence in intelligence work, if Xu Yongchang had a problem, the threat to the organization would be too great.

You must know that the members of the entire intelligence team to which he belongs have all joined the Shanghai Intelligence Bureau after being introduced by Xu Yongchang, and if Xu Yongchang really defects to the enemy, at least the identities of the seven of them will be exposed.

This situation must be reported immediately, and Xu Yongchang will be screened from above, and he can't make his own decisions.

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 Wang Hanmin, the former head of Shanghai Station, has greatly affected our organization, and we have to be careful in everything."

I can only report your situation upwards, and as for the outcome, it will be up to the top to decide, but rest assured, I am sure that there will be good news soon. ”

Xu Yongchang came this time, naturally he also knew that with his own special situation, if he wanted to get back to the organization, the process could not be so smooth, he immediately nodded and agreed: "I know all this, you report it as soon as possible, I don't want to stay longer on the 76th, I want to return to the team as soon as possible." ”

Chai Liang nodded in agreement, suddenly remembered something, and asked: "Brother Chang, you said that you are now subordinate to the second brigade of No. 76, and you mainly obey the command of Wang Hanmin?" ”

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

"Then can you approach Wang Hanmin?"

Xu Yongchang was stunned for a moment, shook his head and said: "Except for seeing him a few times during the interrogation, I haven't seen him after that, this person is very cautious, and he hasn't shown up in the second brigade yet." ”

"And what do you do now?"

"I now hold the position of a squadron leader, because the second brigade was destroyed during the great turmoil before, and now the rebuilt members are all disciples of the Green Gang and some newly recruited local young people, and the backbone are all officers of the National Salvation Army who surrendered this time.

Chai Conscience secretly rejoiced in his heart, that is to say, Xu Yongchang will be able to get close to Wang Hanmin in the future, and these circumstances are too important.

He hurriedly said: "Okay, Brother Chang, you don't have to do anything when you go back, wait for our people to contact you, but you have to be patient, this screening process may take a while." ”

Xu Yongchang nodded and said, "Okay, I know, I'm waiting for your good news!" Ah Si, you are very different from before, you speak in an orderly manner, you are stable, and you have grown up in the end! ”

The two of them briefly explained two more sentences, and then they said goodbye and left.
