Chapter 1917 Wanted Order
“Director, this doesn’t seem like the way the Japanese do things,” Zhang Lu said to Li Cuiqun.
In the courtyard, the Japanese escorted Jia Fugui into the car. Onodera Shogo looked up, waved, and then got into the car and drove away.
“If it were according to the Japanese’s usual practices, one Jia Fugui would obviously not satisfy them,” Zhang Lu said. “But this time they deliberately let Hu Sishui go.”
“It’s not that we’re letting him go, it’s just temporary.” Li Cuiqun shook his head and sighed. “This time, Hu Sishui is doomed.”
A strong sense of unease crept into his heart.
If the Japanese menacingly barged in and forcibly took Hu Sishui away, he wouldn't be too worried.
However, the Japanese actually "strictly followed the rules and evidence" and only took Jia Fugui, who was identified, which made Li Cuiqun somewhat suspicious.
"Keep an eye on the military police and report any developments immediately," Li Cuiqun said.
"Yes."
"Also, don't announce this to the outside world for now," Li Cuiqun instructed.
"My subordinate understands."
……
Chongqing, Dai Mansion.
study.
Dai Chunfeng stood there, with a map of Shanghai hanging on the wall.
“Qi Wu,” Dai Chunfeng said.
"Director."
“The Shanghai district is gone,” Dai Chunfeng said in a low voice.
"Director, Cen Yufeng is still here. As long as we allocate capable personnel and actively rebuild..." Qi Wu said reassuringly.
"It's difficult," Dai Chunfeng shook his head.
Rebuilding the Shanghai district is incredibly difficult.
The biggest loss from this siege of the Shanghai district was not only the arrest of all the high-ranking members except Cen Yufeng, but also the complete annihilation of the middle and lower levels of the Shanghai district. The middle-level cadres were captured and the grassroots members were arrested. It can be said that the Seventy-Sixth Division has severed the roots of the Military Intelligence Bureau's Shanghai district.
"Director, how should we reply to Yu and Xiao?" Qi Wu asked.
“The situation in Shanghai is dire. Send Yu Pingan to inspect western Zhejiang and then return to Chongqing,” Dai Chunfeng said. “Yu Pingan absolutely cannot be allowed to get into trouble.”
Now, what he is most worried about is Yu Ping'an.
If Yu Ping'an were to fall into the hands of the Japanese or the 76th Division, it would be a devastating blow to the Military Intelligence Bureau.
"Yes." Qi Wu nodded and quickly took notes.
"Have Lu Xingge lead men to escort Yu Ping'an back," Dai Chunfeng said.
"Yes," Qi Wu said with a smile. "The journey is long and the road is rugged, so we really need a skilled escort like Lu Xingge."
……
“Cen Yufeng’s old wounds had just healed, but he’s been wounded again,” Dai Chunfeng said. “He’s already been arrested by the Japanese puppet regime in Shanghai, so he’s not suitable for the secret front. We’ll let him stay in the Loyal and Patriotic Army to recuperate for the time being.”
After a pause, Dai Chunfeng continued, "Once the injuries have healed..."
He glanced at Qi Wu and asked, "What do you think about sending Cen Yufeng to Tianjin?"
“I think it’s feasible,” Qi Wu said after thinking for a moment. “The incident in Shanghai is not Cen Yufeng’s fault; he is capable.”
Qi Wu said, "With Cen Yufeng in Tianjin, I believe that with his abilities, he will definitely be able to build the Tianjin Station into a model stronghold for our Military Intelligence Bureau in the north."
……
Dai Chunfeng nodded slightly.
Cen Yufeng was his outstanding student, and he knew Cen Yufeng's abilities better than anyone else.
Having endured brutal torture by the enemy, possessing unwavering loyalty and capability, Cen Yufeng was a rare talent for the Military Intelligence Bureau.
Even the lessons learned from the incident in Shanghai are a valuable experience for Cen Yufeng.
"Are Shen Xi and his men still with the Loyal and Patriotic Army?" Dai Chunfeng asked.
“Yes, Director.” Qi Wu nodded. “After they arrived in Shanghai from Qingdao, Xiao Mian requested that they be assigned to the Loyal and Patriotic Army. Shen Xi is skilled in radio, and we originally planned to send him to western Zhejiang, but it was Kunshan that requested that he stay.”
"Once Cen Yufeng's injuries have improved, arrange for Shen Xi to be placed under his command and accompany him to Tianjin," Dai Chunfeng said thoughtfully.
"Understood." Qi Wu nodded.
Shen Xi and the others are also tried and tested capable men. The Director has really treated Cen Yufeng well, by assigning him trustworthy confidants.
"What a load of crap!" Dai Chunfeng was silent for a while, then suddenly slammed his fist on the table in frustration and cursed.
……
"Director, to be honest, I actually hope that the Shanghai district can be rebuilt." Cheng Qianfan read the telegram, handed it back to Yu Ping'an, and sighed.
“I believe you.” Yu Pingan nodded.
If the Shanghai District existed, the Military Intelligence Bureau would have a dual system in Shanghai, with the Shanghai District and the Special Intelligence Bureau operating in parallel. Putting aside other factors, the Shanghai District could help the Special Intelligence Bureau share some of the pressure and distract the enemy.
Now that the Shanghai district is gone, the Japanese and puppet regime's subsequent actions against the Military Intelligence Bureau will all be focused on the Shanghai Special Intelligence Bureau.
In other words, the most serious and brutal struggle since the establishment of the Special Operations Service is about to begin.
"Qianfan," Yu Pingan earnestly advised, "Without the Shanghai district, the Special Affairs Division will inevitably be the first to bear the brunt. You're under a lot of pressure, so be careful."
"I understand." Cheng Qianfan nodded seriously. "Is the director preparing to depart?"
“Since we’re leaving, there’s no need to delay. Any delays could lead to unforeseen changes. Let’s leave tonight,” Yu Ping’an said.
He patted Cheng Qianfan on the shoulder, "I don't know when we'll meet again, take care."
"Please take care, Director."
“Go ahead and say a few words to your elder brother,” Yu Pingan said.
"Yes."
……
"I reckon I'll most likely be assigned to stay in Chongqing in the future," Lu Xingge said sullenly, puffing on his cigarette. "Or maybe I'll end up like I am now, working as a bodyguard."
"It's my fault," Cheng Qianfan said, feeling guilty. "I've dragged my elder brother into this."
Lu Xingge is quite capable and is fully capable of handling things independently.
However, precisely because Lu Xingge was his elder brother, and the two were true brothers of the same loyalty as Liu Bei, Guan Yu, and Zhang Fei, Lu Xingge's discovery would inevitably be restricted to some extent, given that Cheng Qianfan had already become a powerful figure in the Military Intelligence Bureau's Shanghai branch.
"How can you blame yourself?" Lu Xingge composed himself and laughed heartily. "As long as it helps fight the Japanese, I'm willing to do anything."
“Besides, with me in Chongqing, by the side of all the officers, I can help you in some way,” Lu Xingge said.
Cheng Qianfan didn't speak, but just nodded silently.
He knew how painful it would be for his elder brother, a man of such noble character and unwavering loyalty, to be confined to the rear.
"Alright, second brother, take care." Lu Xingge hugged his second brother goodbye.
"Brother, take care."
……
The next day.
morning.
Li Cuiqun is reading a newspaper.
Suddenly, he stood up abruptly, his eyes fixed on the newspaper.
This is the *Zhonghua Daily*, the official newspaper of Nanjing.
At this very moment, the wanted poster, printed in lead type, was clearly visible in the newspaper:
'This criminal has committed numerous crimes; he is hereby issued an arrest warrant and interrogated immediately!'
This is an arrest warrant for Hu Sishui.
