Chapter 56: The South Pole Star
The celebration began, and various characters appeared. The representative of the Shanghai Municipal Government spoke first to welcome all the distinguished guests, and then the consuls of various countries congratulated them. Then the protagonist Masataka Yamawaki gave a passionate speech: "Ladies and gentlemen, I am very happy to have the opportunity to meet you in Shanghai. Shanghai can be said to be my second hometown, and like many guests, I grew up drinking water from the Huangpu River, and spent my unforgettable teenage years here. I am glad to see that with the joint construction of peace-loving people from all walks of life in Japan and China, Shanghai has become more and more prosperous, and has become a model and model for the construction of the Greater East Asia Co-Prosperity Sphere......"
A crisp gunshot shattered the false song and dance, and before the on-site guards could react, snipers from different directions fired together, bullets flying from at least four different directions. At the scene, people kept being injured and fell to the ground, and Heiichiro Ono strictly ordered dozens of guards to cover the self-composing Yamawaki Masataka and retreat indoors. On the one hand, Li Shiqun organized a counterattack, and on the other hand, he ordered the guards to pull the net to search and see the location where the bullets came from to arrest the snipers.
Seeing that the well-designed drama that whitewashed the peace had become such a picture, Yamawaki Masataka was furious and denounced the heads of military and police special organs such as No. 76, Shanghai Police Station, and Shanghai Garrison Military Police Corps for being incompetent and delaying major events! If Tianliang finds that he is a little shameless, he should apologize for his guilt! In addition to the words, he also piggybacked on Heiichiro Ono. The people who scolded were submissive and did not dare to speak.
After a while, Ni Xin and Tian Chengxi came back to report to Li Shiqun, and Ryuzan Yamaki and Kazuken Asano also came to report the damage at the scene, which can be regarded as temporarily diverting the thunderous anger of Yamawaki Masataka. Ni Xin reported: "The two generals and Director Li, the search at the explosion site has been completed, and no live mouths have been caught. According to statistics, two members of General Yamawaki Masataka's convoy died and two were seriously injured. Another citizen died at the scene, and seven or eight passers-by were injured in the impact. Duan Wentao saw Guo Xuan appear on the scene, which was confirmed by two other agents. It's a pity that he let him run. ”
Ryuzo Yamaki reported, "General, we have captured a sniper alive and are ready to be interrogated immediately. One more sniper fled, two were killed. Two dignitaries attending the celebration party were killed and more than 20 were injured. It wasn't all gunshot wounds, the crowd was caught off guard, and there was a stampede. The trouble was that the two deceased, one was the Italian vice-consul in Shanghai, and the other was a Swiss banker. Several foreign journalists were also seriously injured. According to the analysis of the sniper rifle used by the dead sniper found at the scene, this gun belongs to the same model as the gun used by Guo Xuan to kill Renhe Miura, and these snipers should be military commanders. ”
Masataka Yamawaki was furious: "This is the foolproof security measures you are talking about? Not counting the explosion on the way, how can such a vicious incident happen at the scene! Guo Xuan? Isn't that the wanted criminal? Haven't caught it yet? The front-line soldiers are shedding blood for the Japanese Empire, what are you doing?! Looking at the individual, William Smith swaggered away from under his nose; I finally caught someone and couldn't look at it, and the military commander who was called what ran away from the hospital unscathed! How did the Great Japanese Empire raise such a bunch of waste as you! It is really worthy of the price set by the military commanders for you: one penny for gold, one penny for silver! I think the price is set high! Worthless waste! I warn you: Catch me Guo Xuan, who is the commander of the scene, who is against me and wants to take my life twice in one day! Otherwise I want your heads! ”
was reprimanded by Yamawaki Masataka in front of many subordinates, and Ono Heiichiro was extremely dissatisfied. Helplessly, Yamawaki Masataka worshiped Lieutenant General, his military rank was one level higher than his own, and he made great achievements in the battle of Zaoyi, and he was in the limelight, so he had to endure and remain silent. Guo Xuan, this damn Zhina man, you must catch him, shame on him!
After the celebration was disrupted, less than an hour later, on a wooden boat in Suzhou Creek, Sun Wenkai and Guo Xuan said goodbye: "Old Guo, we have done everything we need to do, and the rest depends on the headquarters of the Chongqing Bureau." Stay safe along the way. Did you say Antarctica? ”
"Do your best to obey the destiny of heaven. Shanghai is here for you, and when Chongqing digs out the Japanese spy of Nanjixing, Stationmaster Zhou will return to the team after recovery. You and I will go back to Chongqing together, and see you when the time comes. Alas, the most regrettable thing about this operation was that he did not take the opportunity to ask for the name of the executioner, Yamawaki Masataka. Speaking of which, Yang Shuang can't be blamed, who would have thought that this cunning old devil would actually be in the first car. Shanghai is turbulent, Ono and Li Shiqun will definitely retaliate frantically after this setback, we must keep giving hope to the opponent, so that Ono, an old devil, is infinitely close to the goal, but he always falls short. It is difficult to grasp the proportions of this, and it is estimated that we will suffer a certain amount of losses, which is not a light burden. ”
Almost at the same time, Heiichiro Ono and Li Shiqun held a joint office meeting to arrange for the arrest of Guo Xuan. Ono Tetsu's face was blue: "Everyone, everyone has heard the words of General Yamawaki Masataka!" Just a military command Shanghai station, stirring up the big Shanghai chickens and dogs! This is my shame and my shame to all of you! I have already made a military order to capture Guo Xuan within ten days. Please work together and cooperate sincerely, catch this damn Guo Xuan, dead or alive, and exterminate the Shanghai Station of the Military Command! Otherwise, I will be strict with military law, don't blame me for being unpredictable! ”
After the meeting, Li Shiqun stayed alone and said: "General, although General Yamawaki Masataka is safe and sound, the operation of the Shanghai station has been a great success. The celebration was disrupted, and the Imperial Japanese Army was humiliated. As soon as the move is successful, Guo Xuan, and even the other main members of the Shanghai Station of the Military Command, will definitely disappear completely for the time being, lying dormant and waiting to avoid the edge. The top priority is how to find their whereabouts. The enemy is in the dark, and I am ...... in the light."
Ono Heiichiro had to admit that Li Shiqun's words were right, and he decided to conduct a comprehensive search in Shanghai first, and if it didn't work, then activate the South Pole Star to find Guo Xuan's hiding place.
An all-out counterattack against the military commanders began, and the military, police, and special forces were all dispatched to verify household registrations, arrest suspects, extort confessions by torture, and offer rewards for their arrest...... For a while, chickens and dogs jumped, many people were arrested, and ghosts and wolves howled all day long in the torture rooms of various secret agencies. Guo Xuan and the other members of the naval command station also obtained a lot of information, true or false, according to the map, either they pounced, and the opponent retreated safely in advance, or they only caught one or two small feet, or the information was simply wrong, and it was completely false.
Tang Shengrong, head of the telecommunications archives and confidential group of the Confidential Department of the Military Command Bureau, is an inconspicuous position, as low-key as his life, but he has access to a large number of core secrets, of course, intelligence is only a fragment to him, and this Japanese who is honest and wooden on the outside and does not see any utilitarian intentions in the depths of his heart, but he prides himself on being the best intelligence analyst in the Far East.
12 years ago, in the 17th year of the Republic of China, he graduated from the Imperial Tokyo Non-commissioned Officer School, and he came to China at the age of 30. He lamented the injustice of heaven. Born in a Chinese ethnic group in Japan, he decided to sacrifice his life, reverse the injustice of God, change his name and surname to stay in the Northeast, and enter Zhang Xueliang's Security Command of the Three Eastern Provinces. A year later, the Northeast changed banners, returned to the central government of the Republic of China, he accompanied him into the customs and entered the Nanjing government, four years later in the 22nd year of the Republic of China, a chance was selected by Dai Li's secret service, and until today he has served in the military command, becoming an ace spy under Ono Heiichiro, a mysterious and important link in a huge invisible spy network in Chongqing. He also played for No. 76, which was just a mutual use of the form, and no one in the Chinese, including Li Shiqun, was qualified to let him serve!
After receiving a secret telegram from Heiichiro Ono, Nanji Star began to act, but soon, he noticed something unusual. He tried to inquire about Guo Xuan's whereabouts from the periphery first, and there were all kinds of rumors, some said that Guo Xuan had returned to Chongqing, some said that he had gone to northern Jiangsu, and more said that he was still in Shanghai...... He paid attention again, and without too much effort, he quickly found out two secret telegrams about the whereabouts of Guo Xuan and Zhou Chengbin, one was sent to Chongqing by Commissioner Sun Wenkai, reporting the assassination of Yamawaki Masataka, and requesting the Chongqing Bureau Headquarters to instruct whether the assassination plan should be continued. Guo Xuan's name was mentioned twice in the telegram. Although Guo Xuan's whereabouts are not clearly explained, it is not difficult to infer that Guo Xuan is still on standby in Shanghai.
Another secret telegram was sent by Chongqing to Zhou Chengbin, from which it seems that there was a secret telegram sent by Zhou Chengbin. In this secret telegram from Chongqing, Zhou Chengbin was ordered: Knowing that he had recovered from his injuries, he was very relieved, and after receiving this order, he immediately returned to Shanghai and joined forces with Guo Xuan to continue the assassination plan. This secret telegram was not sent to Guo Xuan, but it was easy to prove that Guo Xuan was still in Shanghai, and at the same time seemed to be telling his opponent: as long as he found out when Zhou Chengbin would return to Shanghai, he could analyze important information such as the place and time of the meeting of the two joints, so as to catch them all.
Is it necessary for the "Special Technical Cooperation Office" jointly built by Chongqing and the Americans to already work, but the Chinese technical director is stranded in Shanghai at a great risk at this time? Since Zhou Chengbin has recovered from injury and is about to return to the team, and Sun Wenkai has not returned in Shanghai, it is even more unwise for Guo Xuan to stay in Shanghai.
Antarctic star Tang Shengrong tried to listen to the most likely place for Zhou Chengbin to recuperate: the contact between Li Zhiyong, the third column of the Loyal and Righteous National Salvation Army, which belongs to the command of Shanghai Station, and Chongqing.
Tang Shengrong laughed silently: If he didn't guess wrong, in order to dig out his own undercover agent, but also to open a gap from himself, make a breakthrough, and crack the spy network of the Great Japanese Empire lurking in Chongqing from all walks of life in the military and government. The military commander hatched a plan: to provoke Yamawaki Masataka, Ono Heiichiro and others, and arrest Guo Xuan, Zhou Chengbin and others at any cost. At the same time, a circle of suspects was demarcated, and the "different versions" of the whereabouts of Guo Xuan and others were revealed to the people in the suspect circle, waiting for them to fall into the trap. And the version he was assigned to was: Guo Xuan is still in Shanghai and is about to connect with Zhou Chengbin. Of course, more details would need to be further verified by him, and that verification would certainly be made soon. Even if it is not exposed in the process of verification, if he is fooled and passes on the so-called "information", General Ono launches an operation, which is tantamount to telling the military commander who is the South Pole Star.
Where Guo Xuan is currently hiding, Tang Shengrong doesn't know and is not interested. What he knows is that this is the reason why the "Sino-US Special Technical Cooperation Office" began to work, but Guo Xuan was unable to get into it: once it appeared in public, all these versions would be self-defeating. The Chongqing military commander lost face in the Battle of Zaoyi, and cracking down on the Japanese spy network lurking in Chongqing and giving an account to the supreme military commander was a more urgent task on Dai Li's desk than the work of the Sino-US Special Technical Cooperation Office.
These people are a little clever, and if they want to fight with themselves, they are still far behind. Guo Xuan, this cunning opponent, it's a pity, your opponent this time is me, the South Pole Star! The magic is one foot high, and the road is one foot high. All he had to do now was to respond to the changes with the same and to remain absolutely silent.
Tang Shengrong ordered his assistant to go to Kunming and sent a secret telegram to Heiichiro Ono, explaining his hidden worries. Persuade Ono not to think about temporary victory or defeat. After receiving this secret telegram, Heiichiro Ono, who was angry and anxious, suddenly felt empowered, and his own student was better than the blue. The quick victory of the war between Japan and China has become a dream, and it has become a fact that the celebration will be disrupted by the coming days, and at this time, because of the momentary anger, the spy network that the Zhì Empire painstakingly operated in Chongqing collapsed, and it is really not enough to atone for his crimes.
