Cicada Moving Chapter 1270

Chapter 1270 Fishing

Two days after Hase's conversation with the military attaché stationed in Japan, the Japanese-Jewish talks officially began. A storm gradually formed. Unidentified people appeared nearby at Hartung Gardens and the suburban military station in the center of the storm.

The British MI2, the Free French Intelligence Service, the Red Russian NK┴VD, the German Abwehr, and even the American ONI have joined the game.

In the Republic of China, the military commanders and central commanders also took action.

Before six o'clock in the morning, Gui Youguang led his team to leave the French Concession. Shen Dongxin took the initiative to ask to follow the military command team. Xu Enzeng was so happy that he also set off secretly with his men. The two parties agreed to meet outside the Hartung Garden.

After seeing off the operatives, Zheng Tingbing unexpectedly invited Zuo Zhong to go fishing on the river. With their current status, the two of them did not need to go to the front line in person unless the operation went wrong.

In May in Shanghai, the weather is mainly sunny and cloudy, with moderate temperatures, suitable for outdoor activities.

So when Zuo Chong and Zheng Tingbing came to the river, the shore was already full of fishermen, and the accompanying agents arbitrarily cleared the area to make room for the two deputy directors.

Not only that, the little spies also brought tables, chairs, charcoal stoves and refreshments. The onlookers were stunned and moved further away.

Those who were free to kill time during the war were not fools. Seeing this situation, how could one not know that Zuo Zhong's identity was not simple?

Zuo Zhong sat on a chair and looked at the boats passing by on the river, and asked casually: "Old Zheng, there is so much commotion here, will you and I return empty-handed today?"

“It's okay, it's all about entertainment, you can steal half a day's leisure.” Zheng Tingbing replied with a smile while arranging the fishing gear, and handed Zuo Zhong a fishing rod.

Zuo Zhong silently took the bait and threw the pole, with no intention of answering the conversation. The other party who invited him here was definitely not as simple as stealing half a day's leisure, but whether it was fishing or chatting, the most important thing was patience, so let's see who can't bear it first. Stay.

The passing boats brought up waves, and the floats were floating on the water. Zuo Chong and Zheng Tingbing were fishing with one rod and one person, and no one said a word.

After more than half an hour, Zheng Tingbing, who had found nothing, finally couldn't hold it back. He raised his hand to look at his watch and broke the silence first.

“Shenzhu, tell me, will Xu Enzeng go to Hartong Garden as agreed?”

After Zheng Tingbing finished speaking, he glanced at Zuo Zhong's face with his peripheral vision, as if he wanted to observe his reaction, but he didn't know what he was planning.

Zuo Zhong took back the fishhook that had been eaten by the fish and re-baited it. He replied casually: "Since he asked himself to go to the front line, he probably won't shrink from the battle."

“Haha, Shen Zhong, there's no one around, so I won't call you by your pseudonym.”

Zheng Tingbing first smiled and then talked about the past: "You officially joined the Secret Service in the 22nd year of the Republic of China. You and I have known each other for almost ten years. Time flies so fast."

These words made Zuo Zhong feel dazed for a moment. Yes, time flies so fast. It has been almost ten years since he came to this world.

While he was feeling emotional, Zheng Tingbing suddenly asked a question: "Do you know what I am most dissatisfied with about you?"

"Oh? Lao Zheng, tell me, I'm all ears." Zuo Zhong, who came back to his senses, glanced at Zheng Tingbing, his eyes full of curiosity.

Lao Zheng is famous for being a good dancer. He has a harmonious relationship with all aspects of his life and rarely gets angry with others. Why did he express his dissatisfaction with himself in person today?

Zheng Tingbing did not let Zuo Zhong wait for too long, and said quietly: "You, it is a good thing to be cruel to the enemy, but it is not good to be so cruel to your own people."

Zuo Zhong felt that there was something in this guy's words, so he turned his head and motioned for him to continue. Zheng Tingbing did not beat around the bush and said what he had been holding in his heart.

"A few days ago, Xu Enzeng went to the secret stronghold of the Central Military Commission in Shanghai. Later, lurking personnel of the Central Military Commission appeared near a military station on the outskirts of the city. However, the Japanese also set a trap here. The headquarters informed you of this situation. Am I right?"

Zheng Tingbing asked, and then said with a solemn expression: "Shen Zhong, you knew clearly that there was a problem at the military station, why didn't you remind Xu Enzeng that everyone is working for the party and the country, and it is all for the sake of resisting Japan. This time, you have crossed the line!"

This old spy who was born in Huangpu and has been engaged in intelligence work since the 17th year of the Republic of China finally showed his fangs at this moment.

Zuo Zhong was a little surprised. Lao Zheng's hand was stretched out long enough. It was normal for the other party to find out the information about the Central Commander. He knew all about the secret work of the Central Commander, but it was abnormal to know that there was an ambush in the military station.

This incident shows that there is someone from Zheng Tingbing in Shanghai District, and his position is not low, otherwise that person would not be qualified to have access to this level of intelligence.

At the same time, he also knew why Zheng Tingbing lost to Li Qiwu in the end. The other party lacked ruthlessness and was more suitable to be a politician than a spy.

Having said that, Zheng Tingbing will end up with a good death in the future precisely because he always keeps a cautious attitude towards his colleagues and does not kill them all. Who doesn't like a friend who advocates unity.

But this matter has nothing to do with Zuo Zhong. According to later generations, Zuo Zhong is a standard fruit official. If it doesn't work, he will run away. If you don't stay here, you will have a place to stay. If you don't stay everywhere, you will go to Baguan. ┴Road.

Seeing that Zuo Zhong didn't reply, Zheng Tingbing emphasized again: "Shen Zhong, don't make the same mistake again and again. Immediately notify Xu Enzeng and ask the Zhongtong people to retreat. How about I pretend that I don't know about this?"

Zuo Zhong looked at his watch and looked up with regret: "It's too late. According to the information I received, the Central Commander had already started taking action three minutes ago."

Zheng Tingbing's face was gloomy, his hand holding the fishing rod slowly tightened, and his evaluation of Zuo Zhong in his heart dropped rapidly. A person who doesn't know when enough is enough will not go far in his official career.

Three minutes ago, suburban military station.

Xu Enzeng took his eyes back from his watch and waved to a group of plainclothes agents. The Central Unification agents equipped with pistols, submachine guns, and rifles set out from the assembly area and rushed towards the predetermined target. For this mission, Xu Enzeng made what he considered to be complete preparations. From weapons to personnel, from routes to action steps, he reviewed every item more than once.

According to his plan, the operatives will be divided into three groups. The first group will be used as bait to attract mobile troops from the military station, and they will retreat while fighting to buy time for the second group of operatives. The third group will be responsible for support.

Xu Enzeng also considered that the Japanese may have been prepared. Once the attack of the first group of personnel is blocked, the second and third groups of personnel will abandon the mission and retreat from the planned route depending on the situation.

So the first group has the smallest number of people, and even if the whole army is annihilated, it will not affect the overall situation. This is just like the tactic of exchanging pieces in chess. Through local concessions, the purpose of fighting for the lead, gaining momentum, entering the game, killing or plotting pieces can be achieved.

A general cannot be benevolent as a woman. As long as he can destroy the secret talks between Japan and Japan, the necessary sacrifices are worth it.

A small spy walked up to Xu Enzeng and reported to him in a low voice: "Director, there are patrols from the concession around."

"Don't worry about it. The man named Zuo has already taken care of it for us. Once the Judas threat theory comes out, the concession will never stop our actions. We will investigate again and report again!" Xu Enzeng continued to observe the operatives and acted quite calmly.

He held up his binoculars, and the spies in the camera quickly approached the military station as planned. The Japanese troops in the military station also responded quickly, and the two sides started fighting with clanging bells.

After listening to the gunfire for a while, Xu Enzeng relaxed his brows slightly. The Japanese seemed not to be fully prepared. There was only one machine gun firing, and most of the others were rifles.

The exchange of fire lasted for less than two minutes. The first batch of operatives of the Central Unification Committee were fighting and retreating. They looked very panicked. Some people even lost their shoes. They were as embarrassed as they could be. It didn't look like they were staged at all.

According to what Xu Enzeng thought, the Japanese army chose to take advantage of the victory and pursue it. Almost two squads of troops rushed out of the military station to follow the Central Unification agents, and the sound of gunfire slowly moved into the distance.

"It's done! Send the signal and let the second group of brothers start the raid. I will see the head of the Japanese negotiator within ten minutes."

Xu Enzeng clenched his fist and smashed his palm, then turned around and added: "Don't touch the Jewish people, just take away the information they carry with them. Remember to take photos of the other party. We must use our public opinion offensive flexibly."

Before setting off from the mountain city, someone had given clear instructions not to completely offend the Jewish people. Xu Enzeng firmly remembered this order and strictly implemented it.

As the messengers left, the second batch of Central Unification agents, led by their respective team leaders, used tactical maneuvers to leap to the wall of the military station and took out several ladders that had been prepared long ago and set them up on the wall.

Had Zuo Zhong been present, he would have lamented that the Central Unification Operations staff finally looked a bit like professionals.

Although these people's clothes were in a mess, they acted in unison and cooperated tacitly. It was obvious that they had spent a lot of effort in training.

“Hurry! Hurry!”

A spy leader held the ladder with his right hand and waved his gun with his left hand, ordering the agents to speed up the climb over the wall, but he did not move at all.

The other leaders were like this too. They shouted orders loudly but refused to climb up the ladder. Xu Enzeng, who was watching the battle from behind, was so angry that he jumped up and cursed trash.

Just when Xu Enzeng wanted to let the third group of personnel enter to supervise the battle, the gunfire in the military station suddenly became fierce, and even the dull gunfire unique to the Type 92 heavy machine gun rang out. Several small spies were sitting on the wall and were Made into parts.

Under the sun, blood slowly dripped from the wall, dyeing the wall a dazzling red. Xu Enzeng's hand holding the telescope trembled slightly, and he knew that he had been tricked again.

“Withdraw! Withdraw quickly!”

Xu Enzeng shook his body and shouted hoarsely, but more Japanese troops poured out from the military station and the surrounding area, faintly surrounding the Zhongtong people.

Riverside.

The white float suddenly sank to the bottom of the water. Zuo Zhong lifted it with both hands, and a two to three kilograms of flounder jumped out of the water and then crashed into the water with a splash.

“The fish is hooked~”

Zuo Zhong muttered to himself, holding the fishing rod sometimes to the left and sometimes to the right, consuming the prey's physical strength.

After walking for a while, he took the opportunity to exert force again. The exhausted fish was pulled ashore, flopped on the ground twice and then gave up resistance.

Picked off the fishhook from the fish's mouth, Zuo Zhong threw it into the fish basket, then sat back on the chair, looked ahead and spoke.

“Xu Enzeng has his own little calculation, so he must be prepared to pay the price. It's like doing business. If you want to make money, you have to take risks. You can't only have benefits.

Of course, as a colleague, I will not watch Old Xu die. Chen Gongshu's people will respond to him and at least rescue him. As for the others, I am powerless. "

Xu Enzeng is the deputy director of the Central Unification Committee. If it falls into the hands of the Japanese, it will be a problem for Zuo Zhong, whether alive or dead.

Zheng Tingbing was stunned when he heard this. He looked at Zuo Zhong who was content with himself. He opened his mouth to say something, but finally shook his head and smiled bitterly.

On a dirt road on the outskirts of the city, Xu Enzeng was in shock, lying in Chen Gongshu's car and breathing heavily. When the Central Commander left, there were only a few people left in the team of hundreds, and the rest were all left at the military station.

On the other side, Zuo Zhong was in a very good mood. He once again picked up the fishing rod and smiled at Zheng Tingbing: "Another fish has taken the bait. Old Zheng, it seems that Zuo is wrong. The bigger the wind and waves, the bigger the fish. It's easy to fish in muddy water.”
