Chapter 13: Helpless

In other words, the reorganized Ministry of Social Affairs will only undertake the collection of strategic intelligence and the overall anti-espionage and anti-special work in the entire northeast. The public security work and the internal security work of the military region, which were originally in charge, have all been stripped off and listed separately to become independent departments.

The newly appointed Minister of Social Affairs of the Northeast Bureau will be replaced by cadres selected by the central government. According to the arrangement of the central authorities, Chen Bo, the former minister of social affairs, was reappointed as the first vice minister. But considering that Chen Bo's work ability is indeed outstanding, his temper and temperament are also outstanding.

Not to mention the new superiors who still don't know their personalities, or Chen Long, the former partner of the Military Region Intelligence Minister, because of the differences in work, they are quite at odds. Leaving him in the Ministry of Social Affairs, Yang Zhen was really a little uneasy when he didn't know what the new minister was like. Such people were priceless during the war years, but in the years of peace?

After the Central Committee decided to divide the society of the Northeast Bureau, Yang Zhen hesitated again and again, in order to protect this talented Chen Bo. In the name of Chen Bo's familiarity with the internal situation of the military region, he was left in the security department of the military region as the director. By his side, Yang Zhen can also rest assured.

At present, after deciding on the plan for dividing the Ministry of Social Affairs into three, Chen Bo, the former minister of social affairs, has already begun at the end of 42 years in accordance with Yang Zhen's request, and has shifted the main focus of work from the Ministry of Social Affairs to the Ministry of Security of the Military Region. The work of the Ministry of Social Affairs has basically ceased to be intervened in and is temporarily represented by the Deputy Minister.

The post of director of the Social Department of the Northeast Bureau will be replaced by another person appointed by the central government. This person Yang Zhen had also heard of before, and he was also a well-known intelligence and security expert in the party. The internal work of the Ministry of Social Affairs has long been transferred to the deputy minister who arrived in the northeast with the advance army.

This vice minister, who was transferred from Kannai at the end of 41 years, is also a veteran party security expert, and his experience can be said to be quite rich. During the Red Army, he served as the director of the political security sub-bureau at the regimental level, and he was loyal to the cause and had repeatedly performed miraculous feats.

However, although the deputy minister is very low-key, he never shows his head easily. Although Yang Zhen didn't have much contact with him, he was very unaccustomed to this person's eyes that were always suspicious of everything. Although Yang Zhen knew that this person had stopped the expansion of the suppression of rebellion in a certain base area in Guannai and saved a large number of cadres, he was not the kind of ultra-leftist person.

But Yang Zhen didn't know how. As soon as I met his eyes, it felt awkward. Especially after he became the deputy minister in charge of internal affairs of the Ministry of Social Affairs, some aspects of the work of the Ministry of Social Affairs were even in accordance with work discipline, and even Chen Bo, as a minister, could no longer be inquired about. Although Yang Zhen also knew that this was a disciplinary requirement, this situation still made him very uncomfortable

And herein lies the key problem. is not his old subordinate, Yang Zhen has always been a little distrustful of this old qualified anti-rebellion expert. Especially his low, but always secretly scanning everything made Yang Zhen just don't like it. Although he never interfered in other people's work, it was difficult for Yang Zhen to trust this person like Chen Bo.

As a matter of fact, he also knows that this vice minister is loyal to the party's cause, and his working methods are not dogmatic and rigid, let alone the kind of person who kills people at every turn. He has a rigorous style of work, never acts hastily in handling cases, and always pays attention to the need to conduct rigorous investigation and research before drawing conclusions.

Although the period of working in North China was not long, he brought out a large number of intelligence and internal security backbones. After arriving in the Northeast, he became the pillar of the Northeast's intelligence and defense work in a short period of time. When he was transferred to work in the Northeast, the political commissar who advanced to the army was very reluctant, complaining that Yang Zhen had poached one of his most powerful generals.

Looking at people for yourself should not only stay on the first impression, but should look at a person more comprehensively. In particular, as a military commander, he should look at the problem more comprehensively. But although Yang Zhen has never interfered with the specific division of work of the Ministry of Social Affairs, he himself doesn't know how, although he can't say that he dislikes this person, he just can't like it.

The female doctor next to her parents was personally transferred back from South Manchuria after the deputy minister took office. Later, I learned that this female doctor was a secret party member of the Jin-Cha-Ji Social Department that he founded, and sent capable people to develop during the establishment of the intelligence network in South Manchuria.

As for the relationship between the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Social Department in South Manchuria, in the first half of '42, the Anti-Japanese Federation never knew that there was such an intelligence network. It was not until this vice minister transferred a group of student cadres from South Manchuria that the Anti-Japanese Federation knew why on many occasions the central authorities had even more rapid and detailed information on the mobilization of the enemy's puppet army in South Manchuria, especially the internal intelligence of the upper echelons of the puppet Manchurians, than the anti-Japanese federation's own intelligence department in the northeast.

However, the scale of this intelligence network and who exactly includes it are not clear to the Ministry of Social Affairs of the Northeast and the Intelligence Department of the Military Region, except for the deputy minister who created it himself. All intelligence relations are in the hands of the deputy minister himself.

This is despite the fact that there is only vertical communication between such intelligence systems, and there is no horizontal communication. As well as the independence and confidentiality that must be maintained to ensure the security of the intelligence system, Yang Zhen, as a senior commander, is quite understandable.

After all, when engaging in intelligence work, you can't put all your eggs in one basket. Otherwise, once it is destroyed, it will be a devastating blow to the entire intelligence system. The uniqueness of the intelligence system is destined to be easy to destroy but difficult to build. So it's normal to maintain an independent intelligence system.

It's just that although this intelligence system is independent, Yang Zhen can still clearly judge that the central government has entered a group of people in the high-level core of the Japanese puppet system. And I don't know the true identity and status of these people, but among the information transferred by Yang Zhen from the central government, there is even the information of the high-level meeting of the puppet Manchurians.

Although there is very little information about the movement and deployment of Japanese troops, Yang Zhen can analyze quite useful things from the content of the information he transmitted. From this point, Yang Zhen can easily judge that the central government must have nails around the top level of the puppet Manchurians, and the position is definitely not low.

However, most of the information transferred by this intelligence network is a puppet Manchurian system, and in addition to the coolies and the collection of strategic materials related to the Kwantung Army, there is not much military intelligence that is useful for operations on the whole, so Yang Zhen does not care about the ownership of this intelligence system.

Moreover, although this intelligence system was established by the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei Military Region, it is directly under the Central Social Department, and Yang Zhen believes that there is no need to take over this intelligence system. After all, the central authorities also need a certain amount of strategic intelligence in order to constantly adjust their strategic principles.

However, with this judgment, even if he knew that the son of the puppet Manchurian prime minister, as well as a group of the most core official eunuchs of the puppet Manchurians, were also members of this intelligence network, he would not be too surprised. But it is precisely this independent intelligence system that even the necessary information is forwarded by the central government, which is the reason why Yang Zhen resolutely opposes Yang Jicai's marriage.

Because he didn't know what the specific tasks of these people who were transferred back from South Manchuria, including this female doctor, were. Although what was the specific reason for letting the deputy minister transfer people from South Manchuria, he Yang Zhen didn't want to know, and at the same time, he didn't want to ask. But in Yang Zhen's opinion, instead of causing some disputes, it is better to directly cut through the mess with a quick knife.

Although Yang Zhen didn't reveal much, his words did not know much about the scope of work of the Ministry of Social Affairs. Yang Jicai, who thought that this department in charge of all the security work in the base area was simply the security department, was taken aback. But Yang Zhen's words did not make Yang Jicai give up.

Yang Jicai was very stubborn, but in the face of Yang Zhen's opposition, he insisted on defending his love: "Big brother, I believe what you said." But I think even if her identity is more complicated, what can it be? No matter what the work system of the Ministry of Social Affairs is, she is our own person after all. ”

"Since it's my own, why can't I marry? And at least her current task is very simple, which is to take care of our parents' bodies, then there is no problem. Big brother, I really can't think of what is the real reason why you are against our marriage? I don't think that her side and work are obstacles in our marriage. ”

"Big brother, I believe that her work will definitely not be what you think. Because I knew that with her character, she wasn't the right person for that kind of job. She's just a simple, somewhat stubborn girl. She doesn't have that much scheming, she doesn't even know how to use a pistol. ”

"Big brother, I beg you, don't refuse so quickly just because of her work when you don't know her yet. Didn't you always teach me that when looking at a person or a thing, I should not look at the superficial issues, but look more at the core issues. Without the right to investigate, there is no right to speak, and that's what you taught me. ”

"Why are you so hasty disagreeing on this matter? Don't ask, don't understand her true person, just refuse so simply? Big brother, I know you're busy and don't have enough skills, but sister-in-law should always have some time. Can you let my sister-in-law take some time to try to get to know her. Even if you don't believe what I say, you should always believe what my sister-in-law says. ”

Looking at the stubborn Yang Jicai in front of him, Yang Zhen's brows became more and more wrinkled, not to mention, and he also had a considerable headache. There are some things that he really can't explain too thoroughly, and he can't reveal them to his wife and brother in front of him.

A lot of things about the internal affairs of the high-level, now Yang Zhen can only keep it in his heart for the rest of his life, and there is no way to explain it. But now it is obvious that his own statement has not convinced his stubborn younger brother, so that the gallop field so far is almost invincible.

In the face of a tough opponent, he has never frowned once. No matter in the situation of diplomatic internal difficulties, he has never been worried, and Yang Zhen, who has always been the greater the pressure and the greater the motivation, undoubtedly feels a faint sense of powerlessness at this time. He even has the feeling that a tiger is eating the sky and is powerless to put his mouth down.

At the beginning, the little sister almost didn't make a mistake, and the security department had to cut through the mess quickly. But in the face of his younger brother, he was very helpless when he dealt with it personally. At this point, unless he ordered the woman to be transferred to other bases, Yang Zhen couldn't think of any other better way.

But Yang Zhen, who attaches great importance to this family affection, doesn't want to use this method the most. But in the face of his younger brother who was carried away by love, there was no other way. But there is one thing that Yang Zhen knows very well that in dealing with this matter, he can only cut through the mess quickly.

Yang Jicai, who is not good at dealing with family affairs, makes Yang Zhen, who is not good at handling family affairs, faintly have a tendency to go berserk. The long-term career of leading the army makes Yang Zhen not a good-tempered person, especially when he cherishes this family very much now, once it comes to the problems within the family, his temper will not be too good.
