Cicada Moving

Chapter 808 Unkindness

 Release all political (harmony) prisoners in government prisons within half a month, and provide basic life safety guarantees before release.

 Jinling allocated certain weapons and ammunition, medicines, military salaries, and communication radio stations to the northwest.

These are the two conditions proposed by Ban Jun on behalf of the underground party and Zuo Zhong, stating that if the conditions are not met, the underground party will never cooperate with the Guo Party.

Zuo Zhong was not too surprised after hearing this. This is what someone promised to the underground party and the young marshal when they held a pajama party on Lishan Mountain. But as soon as he escaped from danger and returned to Jinling, he broke his promise again.

This time the underground party took the opportunity to bring up old issues again, which has to be said to be a clever move. With the foundation laid by the Chang'an incident and the threat of counterfeit banknotes, it is very likely that the government will agree to these two things.

However, what should be said had to be said. Zuo Zhong frowned and pretended to be angry: "I just said it wrong. Your underground party is not taking advantage of the fire, but taking advantage of others' danger. Isn't it too much for your party to threaten the government in this way?

Still, these are not my little colonel that can be decided. I go back to Xiangfeng to convey your conditions. At the same time the same time, the same place will meet you at the same place.

 Laoban, as an old friend, I want to remind you that supplies are easy to come by. Allowing members of your party and democratic parties to visit dissidents in prisons and introspection homes is probably the biggest concession made by the government. "

 “These two items are non-negotiable.”

 Ban Jun waved his hands and said decisively: "It's not that we took advantage of others' danger, but that your leader broke his word. If the head of a country doesn't keep his word, shouldn't we be allowed to think of our own solutions?

 It is useless to say more. I will wait for your answer tomorrow. I hope Jinling can carefully consider our reasonable requests. In the current national crisis, cooperation to resist Japan is the general trend. Going against the trend will not end well. "

Speaking of this, he stopped and stared at the Waibaidu Bridge, raising his chin: "You see, this is the fate of being a slave to the subjugation of the country. If the Japanese cannot be driven away, you and I will be stabbed in the back by future generations!"

Zuo Zhong followed his gaze and saw Chinese people passing by the Japanese checkpoint in the middle of the bridge, bowing to the Japanese soldiers one after another, even the so-called "upper-class people" who were riding in cars.

Not only Waibaidu Bridge, but also since the Japanese occupied Shanghai, sentry posts have been set up at all important traffic intersections. All Chinese who pass by the sentry posts must stand at attention and bow, otherwise they will be shot or arrested and tortured.

After a moment of silence, he looked at the rolling river and gave an answer: "I will try my best to persuade Shangfeng, don't get me wrong, I am not interested in your doctrines and beliefs.

  But as a Chinese, I don’t want future generations to live in such humiliation. The thousands of years of family property of our ancestors cannot be left in the hands of our generation. "

 “Okay, I’ll leave first.”

 After saying that, Ban Jun shook hands again, looked around and left quickly, disappearing into the crowded crowd after a while.

Zuo Zhong stood by the river in a daze for a while, then waved a fishing boat to stop, gave the boatman a big ticket, and asked the boatman to row along the Sucheng River for a distance to the city, and then found a spot on the shore of the public concession. Place ashore.

Being on guard against others is essential. Ban Jun is worried about him following him, so he is worried about the underground party following him. The two old friends are on guard against each other, which is exactly the same as the current relationship between the underground party and the fruit party.

After wandering around the streets for a long time, Zuo Chong returned to the villa where he was hiding his identity. He took out his mobile phone and sent a telegram to the bureau headquarters, truthfully reporting the Japanese army's attempt to counterfeit legal currency and the conditions of the underground party.

At the end of the telegram, he told Dai Chunfeng that if necessary, the Secret Service could clear out underground party strongholds at any time and that he would never care about his personal friendship with Ban Jun.

No matter where you are, there is no room for bargaining on position issues. Your attitude must be firm, and your actions and words must be in line with the tough style he has shown in the past.

 After sending the telegram, Zuo Zhong put the phone on the coffee table and waited silently for a reply.

 Lao Dai will definitely ask for instructions after receiving the telegram. The current war situation is urgent. The Japanese are about to capture the national defense line. It is not known how long it will take for someone to issue an order.

The situation was similar to what he thought. It was not until evening that the anxious Dai Chunfeng saw someone in the Qilu reception room, and immediately whispered the relevant information to the other person.

 “Niang Xipi, you are despicable! Shameless!”

As soon as he heard that the Japanese were going to counterfeit legal currency, the underground party took the opportunity to demand the release of people and the distribution of supplies. Someone immediately poked the carpet with a civilized stick and started spitting out fragrance. He didn't know who he was scolding.

Thinking of the consequences of the proliferation of counterfeit banknotes, his face became even more ugly. Since the currency reform in the 24th year of the Republic of China, the government once achieved a trade surplus, which shows that the issuance of legal currency was successful.

 Because of the success, only about 1.4 billion yuan of legal currency was issued, and the value of the currency was quite stable. Even if the war started, it did not depreciate too much. One hundred legal currency can be enough to buy a cattle in some places.

If the Japanese put a large amount of counterfeit money into the market, it will be a disaster for the national government, which is already in a fragile financial situation. Without sufficient military spending, there is no need to fight this war.

Thinking of this, someone suppressed his anger and asked: "Zuo Zhong was classmates with the rebel named Ban Jun. What did he say? Did he suggest that the government agree to the underground party's request?"

Dai Chunfeng was shocked. He understood that the leader suspected that Shen Zhi had colluded with the underground party. If something happened to Shen Zhi, he, the teacher, would be the one to blame, so he quickly shook his head.

“To inform the principal, Zuo Zhong just made a report and did not mention anything else. He also said that if you need it, he will lead people to kill all the underground parties in Shanghai and will never show mercy.

Back then, Ban's army abducted prisoners in Jiujiawei, and the students were present at the scene. Shen Zhong first tried to persuade the prisoner to abandon the dark side and turn to the bright side. After being rejected by the traitor, he cut off his robes and severed ties with him, ordering people to catch him.

If I hadn't stepped on the underground party's landmine, Shen Zhi would have killed this person long ago. There are many people at the scene who can prove that, principal, Shen Zhi is loyal to you and the party-state. I can guarantee this. "

　　"Yeah~" 　　 Someone nodded with satisfaction, and then his face darkened: "At this time of national crisis, some people not only don't want to deal with the Japanese, but instead try to blackmail the government, it's really hateful.

Chunfeng, you go to the underground party office later, ask them what they want to do, and try to delay the release of personnel and the delivery of materials as late as possible. Do you understand?

 In addition, I informed Shen Zhong to investigate the information about the underground party in Shanghai and wait for my order to be ready to arrest people at any time. The government will not compromise with anyone, especially the rebel bandits. "

 Arrest people and threaten underground parties?

Dai Chunfeng opened his mouth, intending to persuade someone, but in the end he said nothing. Since the leader didn't care about counterfeit money, why bother himself.

Immediately resigned and left Qilu, and rushed to the underground party office at No. 66 Fuhougang. After the Chang'an incident, underground party personnel worked and rested here.

More than an hour later, Dai Chunfeng returned to the Secret Service angrily. At the same time, a telegram was sent from Jinling to Shanghai.

In the dark living room, Zuo Zhong was sitting on the sofa with his eyes closed. Suddenly, there was a buzzing vibration. He slowly opened his eyes and looked at the bright screen, and reached for his phone.

 A few minutes later, after using the code book to decode the encrypted message, Zuo Zhong sneered as he looked at the above orders. He pondered for a moment, put on his coat, opened the door, left the residence, and rushed to the Yunke Lai Hotel.

He called He Yijun to a secluded place and issued action instructions according to the telegram: "Yijun, there are orders from Jinling, except Song Minghao and Wu Jingzhong who are investigating the whereabouts of counterfeit banknote technical experts.

All operating personnel in Shanghai should use various channels to understand the situation of underground party members and strongholds, and tell brothers to pay close attention, not to alert others temporarily, and the investigation process should be kept as secret as possible.

Then he pretended to be casual and asked the other party: "Who keeps the radio station? The background is unreliable. We are now working in the heart of the enemy, so we must be careful about communication security."

“He is a new person transferred from the Telecommunications Section. He has been here since the days of Jigexiang. He is from Hangcheng, Zhejiang Province and was born in Huangpu. He just underwent a background check in the first half of the year and no problems were found. What’s wrong, deputy director?”

He Yijun didn't know what happened, so he answered clearly.

 “It’s okay, you are like this.”

Zuo Zhong came close to her ear and whispered a few words. He Yijun nodded while listening. The two of them dispersed after discussing.

 The next night, intelligence from all aspects came to Zuo Zhong. According to the investigation of the agents, the underground party in Shanghai is currently very low-key.

Even if the Guo Party and the underground party cooperated to resist Japan, the other party did not carry out public activities, so the personnel and strongholds could not be traced. For this reason, Zuo Zhong was furious.

Have never seen the deputy director lose his temper like this before. Wu Chunyang and others remained silent, secretly guessing whether the underground party had done something big again, which made the other party angry.

 But just when they decided to continue their in-depth investigation, another secret telegram was sent from Jinling to Shanghai. The person who sent the telegram was still Lao Dai, but the content was completely different.

“Agree to the conditions of the underground party and be sure to destroy the Japanese plan.”

Zuo Zhong expressionlessly threw the telegram into the brazier. Just as he had guessed, the so-called investigation was indeed a test to see if he had anything in common with him.

If he had stalled for time yesterday and failed to assign tasks in time, what awaits him today is probably to be escorted to Jinling to wait for Faluo's treatment.

At any rate, he risked his life to go to Chang'an to protect him, but to be treated like this, someone's unkindness was really engraved in his bones.

 No wonder a dozen years later, the son of Chief Du, who had been blamed for many times, was short of money for school in the United States. The other party actually gave him thousands of dollars like a beggar, and paid in installments.

The king treats his ministers like grass and grass, and the ministers treat the king like bandits and enemies. How come some people just don't understand this truth?

“Deputy Director, as you guessed, that person secretly used the radio today. Do you want it?”

He Yijun, who came to deliver the message, slowly made a downward gesture with cold eyes.

“No need, he is loyal to the party and the country, and he is not surrendering to the enemy and treason. You can just keep an eye on him more in the future.”

Zuo Zhongpi said with a smile: "Besides, something happened to the other party as soon as Jin Ling received the news, which is equivalent to telling the leader that we were the ones to do it.

 Don't be anxious, there will always be a chance in the future. If there is a day when no one will die in Shanghai, go and call Song Minghao over. I have something to ask him. "

"Understood."

 He Yijun nodded.

Don’t ask why someone was used to replace the bald head. There was no other way. I wrote more than 4,000 words and deleted more than 800.
