Spy Wars: I can get rewards by being a bully!

Chapter 198 Cautious Contact

Mao Wanli said in a serious tone, "Sir, your illness is very strange. Please come to the back. I will take your pulse carefully and prescribe a new prescription."

This drugstore has a shop in front and a house in the back. Passing through the front hall, a corridor and a hanging flower door, you will reach the backyard.

The two entered a room which was simply furnished. The floor was made of blue bricks and looked a bit old and uneven. There was a row of cupboards against the wall. Opening the cupboards revealed an entrance to an underground tunnel which led to a house at the entrance of the alley behind.

There was a table in the middle with a rough pottery teapot on it. Mao Wanli sat down at the table and asked in a low voice: "Yushan, what do you think?"

Zeng Yushan, deputy station chief of the Beiping Station, was an old member of the Fuxing Society. He was able to serve as deputy station chief of such an important battle as the Beiping Station, and later on most of them became generals.

Zeng Yushan paced a few steps in the room, and said carefully: "Stationmaster, this is normal. There are no outsiders here. I should say something that I shouldn't say. We have also studied the torture of the Japanese devils. To be honest, if I went there, I'm still unsure whether I could survive. So this action team leader pretended to surrender to the enemy, maybe it's true."

Turning around, he looked at Mao Wanli. "But he activated the dead mailbox and explained it to us right away. I'm a little unsure. What does he mean? Does he want us to be an insider of the military police headquarters? This is really a case of planting willows by accident and getting shade. If this is a trap set by the devils, it really poses a problem for us."

Mao Wanli nodded, sighed, motioned Zeng Yushan to sit down first, poured two bowls of tea, and said without drinking, "Yes, we are like fish that have been hungry for a while. Now we see the bait. Should we bite or not? If we don't bite, it's an insider who has penetrated the military police headquarters. If we bite, we are afraid that there are sharp hooks hidden behind the bait, and we will be caught before we take two bites."

Zeng Yushan was silent this time. A few people can make plans, but many people cannot. Mao Wanli had to make the decision on this matter. After thinking for a long time, Mao Wanli was reluctant to give up such a good opportunity.

"So, Yushan, isolate the dead mailbox. That place can only be used by the action leader. Then select two or three clean people to keep watch around there. Once they find a tail, immediately stop any contact with the action leader. Other than that, stop any contact under this line of communication. All contacts will be conducted through shortwave radio."

Mao Wanli was careful. As long as the communication was done through shortwave radio, the telecommunications department at the headquarters would also receive a copy. They were responsible for analyzing the communications and intelligence from various places, especially assessing the possible risks involved. Some information they considered valuable would be reported to Director Dai.

If something really goes wrong, he won't be the only one responsible.

After the two men finished their discussion, they returned to the front. Mao Wanli wrote him a prescription and prescribed some medicine according to the prescription.

Zeng Yushan picked up the medicine bag, paid the money, and went out.

Mao Wanli messed up the abacus beads on the counter, and no one knew what he was thinking.

........

mountain city.

The new office building of the Secret Service.

The entire mountain city turned into a large construction site, and the office spaces of various government offices were under intensive construction.

Boss Dai had people, money, and supplies, so he naturally took the lead in building the office space.

This place is built luxuriously and grandly, with a large square, office buildings at the back, and supporting air-raid shelters and prisons.

It is very large and has many rooms, and is prepared to expand the Secret Service Department into the Military Intelligence Bureau in the future.

Mao Dacheng knocked on Boss Dai's office door and took out a piece of translated telegram paper.

"Commander, there is a situation in Peking that I think I need to let you take a look at."

Then, he handed over the translated electronic paper.

Boss Dai seemed to be in a good mood today. He took the telegram without saying anything. After glancing at it for a few seconds, he sneered and said, "Can you believe this?"

Then he pondered for a while, "Reply to Mao Wanli and tell him to be cautious in contact and not to expose himself. If it is found that there is something wrong with this so-called action leader who pretended to surrender to the enemy, then we can use the same trick against him and feed him some intelligence. If necessary, we can send a few people out to make him lose his temper."

Mao Dacheng nodded. This was their usual practice. "Director, do you want to ask Jin Fo to help investigate?"

Boss Dai thought for a moment, "The Golden Buddha is very important and cannot be used lightly. Have you noticed that the Golden Buddha has strong intelligence capabilities and high accuracy? I guess he has established a very strong network of relationships with the Japanese or the Maintenance Association. But the more this is the case, the easier it is to capsize in the gutter. Let's do this. Remind me again later. If the action team leader passes any important intelligence to the Beiping Station, you can ask the Golden Buddha to verify its authenticity."

Then Boss Dai asked, "How's Pengcheng doing?"

As a chief secretary, Mao Dafeng was very familiar with all kinds of information. He answered without hesitation: "Commander, south of Pengcheng, Huaiguan and Bengbu have been lost, but we fought very well and basically blocked the Japanese south of the Huai River. Now they are confronting each other across the river. North of Pengcheng, Yishui and Jucheng fell one after another. At the same time, the commander of the 122nd Division, Wang Mingzhang, died for his country, and Teng County was lost."

Boss Dai nodded and muttered, "There will be a tough battle near Taijiazhuang. Send a telegram to all districts and stations to act accordingly and collect intelligence about the battle in Pengcheng."

This is a routine order. In fact, basically no one can collect this kind of intelligence, because both the decision-making on the front battlefield and the combat situation on the front line are too far away from the existing intelligence core sites.

Once a war breaks out on a large scale, even if a comprehensive plan is stolen, it will be of little significance. It is like even if the headquarters receives intelligence that the Japanese will attack Taijiazhuang from north to south on a certain day of a certain month, it is of no use because if you mobilize a large number of troops to assemble and wait in a certain place, the Japanese may change their strategy according to the situation, such as encircling our troops in a roundabout way.

Why was Song Hongyi's intelligence so valuable before? First of all, De County was the first stop of the Japanese army's march south. Holding it was victory, and one day of holding was a day of victory. Secondly, he provided advance notice for subsequent arrangements in the rear, allowing subsequent deployments to be more relaxed.

It's a pity that due to various factors, this important information could not be put to good use.

Mao Dacheng saluted and said, "Yes!"

After saying this, he slowly stepped out and went to the telecommunications office downstairs to issue orders to each district and station.
