Chapter 428: Forcing Them to Do the Right Thing
A small telegram is like a stone that stirs up a thousand waves!
Xiang Chu fell into deep thought. Yang Jiang was his spokesperson in the Taihu detachment.
If Yang Jiang is removed from his post, the Taihu Branch will inevitably fall apart.
The recruited lake bandits and pirates will continue their old business or surrender to the Japanese.
The few remaining people or assets would inevitably fall into Mao Feng's hands.
"We must take action before Mao Feng arrives!"
Xiang Chu thought of this, took a bite of the stewed lotus root, and said in a displeased manner:
"The food cooked by the mute chef is too unpalatable. I will go find him."
Yu Xiaowan took it for granted to defend Liu Zhengxiong and said, "That's not the case!"
“That’s too much!”
Xiang Chu rolled his eyes at her.
Nanzō Yunzi was very happy that he did this, and said in a deliberately coquettish voice:
"Nobita! I really want to eat fish."
"Good girl! Go get it right away."
Xiang Chu laughed heartily and walked out of the tent, making Yu Xiaowan so angry that she wanted to beat him up.
He pretended to inspect the troops' meals and walked into Liu Zhengxiong's armored vehicle with a smile on his face.
Liu Zhengxiong and Li Tong were drinking together, and there was a plate of silver carp on the table that had not been touched.
Xiang Chu closed the car door and said anxiously: "Lao Liu! Li Tong! Yang Jiang has been dismissed, and Mao Feng is going to take Chen Song to take over.
Mao Feng has always been jealous of Yang Jiang and Boss Ding for not listening to his orders, and Chen Song is narrow-minded and intolerant of others. These two people will definitely take the opportunity to kill Yang Jiang, Boss Ding and others.
You two should go to Taihu Lake overnight under the pretext of purchasing Taihu white shrimp and silver fish, and find Yang Jiang and Ding Shan, and have them lead the Taihu detachment to move to this location and join Mr. Mi's New Fourth Army.
After saying this, he took out a pen, pulled Liu Zhengxiong's arm, and wrote the address on it.
"You boy!"
Liu Zhengxiong was in tears.
Li Tong rolled up his sleeves and said with a smile, "Uncle Master! Yang Jiang will definitely listen to Captain Liu, but it's hard to say for Boss Ding and the others. You should write a paragraph to let Boss Ding carry out the order to join the New Fourth Army."
"Row!"
Xiang Chu said happily.
He immediately wrote a paragraph on Li Tong's arm, signed his name and put his fingerprints on it, and drew a flute, saying with a smile:
"Ding Shan believes it 100%. Go now! The Kamikaze Squadron will not leave until you two return."
Liu Zhengxiong said regretfully: "But there are still dishes that have not been touched."
Xiang Chu smiled and said, "I'll help you eat!"
He put the plate of bighead carp into the lunch box, picked up the lunch box and walked out of the car.
Liu Zhengxiong's laughter and scolding came from behind:
"You are so unkind."
Li Tong reminded: "Old Liu! Junior Master came here to get the food, otherwise how could that female devil let him leave?"
Just as Xiang Chu said, at this time Mao Feng was conspiring with Chen Song who had rushed to Wuhan.
Mao Feng said with a smile, "Old Chen! The commander of the Taihu Lake Detachment has been promoted to deputy division major general. It's a lucrative post now. The annual military pay is countless, and you can make a living by the lake. It's a great fortune for you to go there."
Chen Song nodded and said, "Thank you for your cultivation, Director. I didn't want to stay in Changsha Station for a long time. Those people are too exclusive."
Mao Fengyin smiled and said, "But if you want to gain a foothold in the Taihu Detachment, you must get rid of Xiang Chu's confidants such as Yang Jiang and Ding Shan, otherwise the Taihu Detachment will never be under your control."
Chen Song hesitated and said, "But I don't have any trusted subordinates."
Mao Feng whispered, "Don't worry, I brought 30 trusted men with me, all of them are experts in operations, to help you."
Chen Song clenched his fist and said, "Okay! Go over and kill Xiang Chu's confidant."
Mao Feng stood up and said, "To prevent any trouble, let's set out at night. Let's go!"
"go!"
Chen Song hurriedly followed him.
This is nothing short of a game, where the first to arrive gets the upper hand.
Liu Zhengxiong and Li Tong arrived at the Taihu detachment’s base overnight.
The two men showed Yang Jiang and Ding Shan the address and orders that Xiang Chu had written on their arms.
Yang Jiang said happily: "I never thought that the director is actually our comrade."
Ding Shan smiled and said, "The benefactor recruited us and pointed out a clear way forward."
Liu Zhengxiong asked with a smile: "You two! Do you have any whitebait and white shrimp? I have to bring some back."
Yang Jiang smiled and said, "There are plenty! Just take any you want, you don't have to pay."
"Lao Yang! Are you reminding me to pay?"
Liu Zhengxiong said angrily, paid the money immediately, and instructed,
"You two! Hurry up and pack up and leave, otherwise Mao Feng and Chen Song will come and kill you."
Ding Shan nodded and said, "Old Yang and I have offended Mao Feng before, and he has long hated us to the core."
Yang Jiang smiled bitterly and said, "Chen Song is a narrow-minded person. The Taihu detachment will be finished in his hands."
"I envy you for returning to the organization. Let's go!"
Liu Zhengxiong took the silver fish and white shrimp and returned with Li Tong.
Yang Jiang and Ding Shan packed the supplies overnight, took everything they needed, and sailed away from the detachment's base.
From then on, the lake was vast and the water was far away, and there was no Taihu detachment anymore...
A few days later, Mao Feng, Chen Song and others arrived at the Taihu detachment’s base, exhausted.
However, the house was already empty and it was impossible to even find someone to ask.
Chen Song took it for granted and framed him: "Director! Could it be that Xiang Chu transferred the person away?"
"It's not impossible!"
Mao Feng said without hesitation, thought for a moment, and ordered, "Telegraph operator! Immediately inform the director that the Taihu detachment has left the station. It may be that Xiang Chu has transferred the people away."
"Yes!"
The telegraph operator hurriedly sent a message to the bureau.
Not long after, I received a reply by telegram:
"Deputy Director Mao! Don't make assumptions without evidence. Tang Cong reported that the streets of Shanghai were full of Special High Police and military police, and their assassination force was insufficient and difficult to carry out.
You must immediately take Chen Song and others to Shanghai, and cooperate with Tang Cong and Mu Tian to complete the assassination mission of Wang Ke and Wang Shi.
After the matter is accomplished, Chen Song will be promoted to deputy director of the Operations Department, and you will still be the first deputy director. "
Mao Feng showed the telegram to Chen Song and said with a wry smile: "Tang Cong and Mu Tian clearly don't want to work, but they still want us to suffer."
Chen Song said angrily: "Tang Cong and the Shanghai Intelligence Station have hundreds of people in total, how come they are not strong enough?"
Mao Feng smiled mysteriously and said, "I guess he won't do any serious work after arriving in Shanghai!"
Shanghai, A-Di Room, Chuyue Hotel.
Xiang Chu is convening a branch meeting to study the struggle situation in Shanghai.
Yi Huaan reported: "Leader! Recently, there are always some unscrupulous people following me, and they even went into the Red Heart Company to check. I guess they are spies of the White Party."
Yu Xiaowan said hurriedly: "Many people of unknown identities have come to Jishi Hospital. They are not here for treatment. Most of them are spies of the White Party."
Long Ling said anxiously: "It's the same in our Chuyue Hotel. There are many unfamiliar faces around. They are definitely not from the Special Higher Section. What are they doing?"
Xiang Chu smiled bitterly and said, "The Party Affairs Department was upgraded to the Central Bureau of Investigation and the Military Police Department was upgraded to the Military Bureau of Investigation. Now they are crazy about making achievements, but they didn't expect to keep a close eye on us.
These people are really abominable. They are clearly here to assassinate Wang Ke and Wang Shi. Why are they staring at us instead of doing their job? "
Yu Xiaowan said angrily, "They must think we are close to the 'Flower of Holy War' and the Special High Police, as if we have become traitors."
Yi Huaan said thoughtfully, "We were probably not careful enough. We helped so many poor people and were discovered by the White Party spies."
"What's wrong with doing good things?"
Xiang Chu said helplessly, paused, and said seriously, "In this case, I will simply mobilize the Kamikaze Supervisory Team and the Shanghai Military Police to protect you with all my strength, weaken the protection force of the Iwai Mansion, and force them to do their job!"
"Well! That's a very good idea."
Yi Huaan and others applauded.
Xiang Chu immediately picked up the phone and first sent the Yamashita Squadron of the Kamikaze Commando to the Red Heart Trading Company, and the Tailiu Squadron to the Jishi Hospital.
Then he called Akita Haruka: "Haruka! The area around Chuyue Hotel is full of dangerous people. Send a team over to protect it immediately."
"Hello!"
Akita Haruka hurriedly accepted the order.
Long Ling smiled and said, "Three of you! Why does Akita Haruka listen to our leader so much?"
Yu Xiaowan listed them one by one: "First-class! 'Flower of the Holy War'! Lieutenant General Fujiwara! Each of them is a deadly title used by the Japanese."
Xiang Chu shook his head and said, "These names are even more deadly here! Someone could assassinate us at any time! We have to keep our eyes open even when we sleep."
