Spy Shadow

Chapter 297 Promoted to Lieutenant Colonel

"Yes, Virgo."

Jiang Wan stood at attention and saluted, finally understanding why Virgo said the previous words first.

Virgo asked him to do such an important thing, and it was obvious that he had great trust in him. Just after something like Lin Peilun happened, Virgo gave him such an important task, which moved him very much.

But he didn't know that Old Ghost Xu chose him to perform the task because he usually had a feud with Lin Peilun.

If he and Lin Peilun were very harmonious, I am afraid that he would be dismissed from his post and investigated instead of carrying out the task.

After Jiang Wan left, the mess in the Party Affairs Investigation Department did not get better.

Xu Laogui quickly cut through the mess and cleared out all Colin Peilun's confidants in the intelligence department. Regardless of whether they were red party members or not, they were not used. He also promoted a group of people from the operations department and other departments to the intelligence department.

This action allowed him to stabilize his position first.

Two days later, Nao Iijima finally confessed.

He provided a large number of important lists, including Shanghai, Nanjing, Suzhou and other places. Chen Shu immediately sent people to arrest them, but unfortunately they all failed.

These people had evacuated two days earlier.

And the moles were also missing.

Chen Shu had finally completed the task assigned by Virtuo to track down the traitors at Shanghai Station and found the mole. Unfortunately, the mole ran away.

Mole's status was not high, he was just a captain of the security team, but he was such a person and provided a lot of important information to the Japanese.

No one was caught, and Chen Shu was so angry that he threw the cup.

The fire was burning, but it didn't burn to the maximum. If Nao Iijima had opened his mouth earlier, it would have been a great achievement for him to catch all these people.

This contribution is definitely no less than all the achievements made by the Action Department.

In fact, even if Iijima confesses directly, Chen Shu will not be able to take full credit.

Kitagawa Naru reacted quickly, suspecting that Nao Iijima had made arrangements after his accident. No matter how fast Chen Shu moved, some people could escape, and what he could catch was limited.

But the traitor at Shanghai Station will definitely not be able to escape.

When Aso Hiroki informed, he went from big to small, from serious to light. It was already the second day that he informed those moles.

"Send a report to the headquarters. Our station captured Nao Iijima, the leader of the intelligence team of the Japanese Super High School. Based on Nao Iijima's confession, we destroyed the Seventh Division of the Japanese spy organization, which greatly shocked the Japanese spies. We will now report the details of the Nanjing Japanese spy intelligence team. Report..."

Chen Shu ordered loudly, while Feng Qun was stunned.

Obviously no one was caught, but they all ran away, and when they got to the webmaster, they turned into destroying the Japanese spy organization?

Escape and destroy are definitely two different concepts.

But it cannot be said that the webmaster is lying. Although the enemy has escaped, these organizations do no longer exist, and it is because they were destroyed that they can be credited.

"yes."

Feng Qun ran to send the report, and soon Secretary Qi came to the office with the telegram from Shanghai Station.

"Chen Shu did a good job. He caught such an important spy and destroyed seven spy organizations."

After reading the message, Virgo was very happy. It was right to send Chen Shu to Shanghai. He did not expect that Chen Shu had made such great achievements in Shanghai.

The traitor was also found. Although the traitor escaped, the danger of the traitor was eliminated after all.

Once you know the identity of the traitor, you can punish him at any time.

"Chen Shu is a capable man."

Secretary Qi smiled and nodded. Not long after, he received another long message from Shanghai Station, detailing the process of arresting Nao Iijima.

"Bai Yuan deserves to be killed."

After reading the report, the director snorted coldly. Wu Yuantai took the credit, and his action team leader followed suit and concealed the report. The intelligence team leader has now defected to the enemy again. The previous Shanghai station was really in disgrace.

Fortunately, Wu Yuantai was dealt with early, otherwise I don't know how many traps he would have stabbed.

As for Chen Shu using Bai Yuan as bait to attract the Japanese, Virgo didn't care at all.

Chen Shu made it very clear that he had dismissed all four team leaders, and only Bai Yuan accepted Japanese money and became a Japanese lackey.

Zhong Yuanjiang, the former chief of the general affairs section, not only confiscated the money, but also wanted to arrest people. This performance was very good.

Chen Shu's move not only tested the loyalty of the previous members of the Shanghai Station and eliminated hidden dangers, but also found truly loyal warriors like Zhong Yuanjiang.

Well done indeed.

"Go and call He Nian."

Virgo gave instructions and Secretary Qi went out to make phone calls. After a while, he came to the Virgo's office to greet the New Year.

"Happy New Year, Chen Shu captured Nao Iijima. Nao Iijima told us that there are still three intelligence teams in Nanjing, but they may be gone. You should go and check."

Virgo handed the message to He Nian, and He Nian's eyes widened. Not long after they came back from Shanghai, Chen Shu actually did such a big thing in just a few days?

Nao Iijima, the intelligence team leader and lieutenant general of the Shanghai Special High School Course, what an important person he was, was arrested by him?

Although Nao Iijima confessed a little late and the person may have escaped, catching such a person is a great achievement in itself, an unprecedented achievement for the Military Intelligence Service.

Chen Shu, this guy, is just a blockbuster.

"Yes, Virgo."

After returning to the office after celebrating the New Year, he immediately called the leader of the first, second, and third groups. There was a high possibility that he had escaped, so there was no need to hand it over to Chu Lingyun.

Moreover, the fourth group of Operations had done too much meritorious service. As the section chief, he always wanted to give some credit to the other three groups.

Wen Jitao, Liu Wannian, and Zhu Qing quickly arrived at the New Year's Office.

"These are the three groups of Japanese spies in Nanjing, one for each of you. Go check it out immediately."

"Three, section chief, where did you get such important information?"

The team leader Wen Jitao asked in surprise, this is a complete spy intelligence team. Only four teams in the Operations Section have cracked down a complete team, and more than one, they have never done so before.

The section chief was so interesting that he gave them such a big gift.

He Nian glared, how could he not know what they were thinking: "Don't be too happy too early. This information was obtained a little late. The person may have escaped, but even if he escaped, you should check it carefully to see if you can get it. New clues."

"Ran?"

Wen Jitao was stunned, Liu Wannian, and Zhu Qing were also stunned. How to catch the person who ran away?

I thought it was a great achievement, but it turned out to be a trap.

"Why, you can't check if you run away. It's not like Chu Lingyun hasn't checked on the people who left. He can even find clues about dead people, but you can't?"

He Nian scolded, the three of them were a little reluctant, but He Nian did not give them a chance to refuse the task.

When they arrived, all three intelligence teams had disappeared, not a single one was left.

They had retreated so cleanly that there was no way to investigate, so they had to come back to recover, only to be scolded by He Nian again.

Even if we can't investigate, we still have to investigate. Even if we can't catch anyone, we still have to find out who they have close contact with and find out those people who are in daily contact with each other.

Three days later, the Military Intelligence Service Auditorium.

It's rare for Virgo to wear a military uniform. Today is the awards ceremony. Chen Shu specially brought Feng Qun and other meritorious ministers from Shanghai to Nanjing.

The Shanghai Station also made great achievements this time. If we talk about the value of catching people, the Shanghai Station made even greater achievements this time.

For collective meritorious service at the Shanghai Station, Chen Shu received a third-class Yunhui Medal. He was already the station commander and could not be promoted, so he was rewarded with the medal.

Except for Chen Shu, everyone else received awards.

Chen Shu was a little regretful. He used this credit to propose the expansion of Shanghai Station into a district. Unfortunately, Virgo did not agree, but he did not object, saying that he would consider it before making a decision.

Without any objection, Chen Shu would still have a chance.

After the rewards at the Shanghai station are over, the next step is the Intelligence Section and Operations Section.

Xu Yi from the Intelligence Section brought back Lin Peilun. There was a reward, but the reward was very small. There was only a cash reward of 1,000 French coins. This reward was nothing to Xu Yi.

Who knows that although it was his mission this time, he was the one arrested by the Operations Department, and he didn't do anything at all.

After the Intelligence Division is the Operations Division. The Operations Division captured Lin Peilun and successfully sanctioned Deputy Chief Tang, which was a great contribution. In the New Year, he also received a third-class Yunhui Medal.

Next was Chu Lingyun. After Chu Lingyun stood up, Virgo walked out again.

Chen Shu and New Year's medals were all awarded personally by the Virgo.

Ni Loach and Shen Hanwen were sitting below. They were very excited. Their team leader was about to be awarded a medal again. How many times had this been awarded?

Especially Shen Hanwen, he knew in advance that his military rank would be promoted to captain this time.

It's a pity that he was promoted a step later than Ni Loach. Ni Loach occupied the position of deputy team leader. If he had been promoted first, the deputy team leader would definitely be his.

The leader began to read out the commendation order. The previous ones were about Chu Lingyun's achievements. This time, he mentioned all the previous achievements.

Before the commendation order was even finished, many people noticed something was wrong.

Chu Lingyun has made a lot of achievements. If he cannot be given a substantial reward, these achievements will be saved for him and will be used when he is promoted in the future.

But this time he said it, is Chu Lingyun going to be promoted again?

Soon, the chief minister read to the end, "With the instructions of the Chairman, Major Chu Lingyun is specially approved to be promoted to lieutenant colonel as a token of encouragement."

Promoted, really promoted?

Many people's eyes widened, and the promotion was to a military rank. How long had it been since he was promoted to major? How long had it been since he was promoted to lieutenant colonel so quickly?

The promotion of a school officer is much more difficult than that of a lieutenant officer. Each level is a hurdle. There are no opportunities and no merit. There are many people who have stayed in the same place for seven or eight years. In less than a year, more than half a year to be exact, Chu Lingyun was promoted from a second lieutenant to a lieutenant colonel. This step was too big.

"Lieutenant colonel."

Niluo's eyes widened. He didn't expect that the team leader would be promoted to a higher rank again. Lieutenant colonel, he was definitely a senior member of the Military Intelligence Department.

When they were in Wuhan, the deputy station chief Wang Yuemin was only a lieutenant colonel. Later, he was promoted to colonel after continuous meritorious service.

The team leader is a lieutenant colonel at such a young age and has a bright future.

They have a bright future with the team leader.

"Thank you, Virgo Cultivation."

Chu Lingyun did not expect that he would be promoted to military rank. He had not received any news before.

“Cultivation by the party-state.”

The chief nodded with satisfaction and personally helped him change to a new military rank. Chu Lingyun became the youngest lieutenant colonel officer in the Military Intelligence Department.

The crowd burst into applause. Zhu Qing and Liu Wannian looked at me and I looked at you.

When Chu Lingyun first came here, he was just a captain and a reluctant team leader. In just a few months, he became a lieutenant colonel, but they were still majors.

In terms of military rank, Chu Lingyun was already higher than them.

The one with the most complicated expression is Yuan Shouwang. He has been running around during this period. He has his eyes on the position of the chief of the equipment department. Last time, there was a traitor in the equipment department, which made Virgo very dissatisfied.

The chief of the Equipment Section is not Virgo, but the head of the Intelligence Section, Xu Yi, and he is very hopeful of ousting him and occupying the position of Chief of the Equipment Section.

Although he doesn't have much power, he has plenty of oil and water.

Yuan Shouwang is not a very ambitious person. He is dispensable in the operations department. If he can become the section chief of the equipment department, he will be very satisfied.

Before it was fully operational, Chu Lingyun's military rank was promoted to lieutenant colonel.

This gave him a greater sense of crisis. Chu Lingyun had the same military rank as him and might squeeze him out at any time. He must hurry up and leave the Operations Section as soon as possible.

Otherwise, after being squeezed out, he will have to be marginalized without a suitable position. When the time comes, it will not be that easy to seek the position of chief of the equipment department.

After Chu Lingyun, there were Shen Hanwen and others like Ni Loach. Ni Loach's achievements were not great and his rewards were limited.

Shen Hanwen was promoted to captain as he wished.

Many people in the fourth operation group were promoted again. This time, fifteen people were promoted to second lieutenant, and two others were promoted to lieutenant.

Although Chu Yuan was not here, Chu Lingyun still asked for credit for him. Chu Yuan was not promoted to military rank this time, but several people in his team were promoted to second lieutenant.

Four groups took action, and all teams gained something.

After the awards ceremony, Action Team 4 held a celebration banquet. Since Virgo was present in person last time, Chu Lingyun specially sent an invitation to Virgo this time.

To everyone's surprise, Virgo agreed.

But this time Virgo didn't just attend the celebration banquet for the four groups. Chen Shu from Shanghai Station also held a celebration banquet. Virgo simply asked them to hold the entire celebration banquet at the Jinling Hotel, so that he didn't have to travel to two places.

Jinling Hotel, at the main table, the New Year greeter did not sit at the first seat. Since Virgo promised to come, the first seat must be reserved for him.

Virgo went to Chen Shu first. In terms of rank, Chen Shu was the webmaster. In terms of merit, Chen Shu's contribution this time was not small.

Chen Shu was very happy and toasted three glasses of wine to Virgo.

Virgo came to him first, which meant that he valued him more, but as the celebration banquet progressed, Chen Shu soon stopped laughing.

Virgo, who came to their side first, didn't stay long, and then went to the operations department.

After Virgo went to the Operations Department, he actually sat until the end. Not only did he have three glasses of wine with He Nian, but he also had three glasses of wine with Chu Lingyun. The treatment was obviously higher than what they had here.

"It benefits the people."

After the celebration banquet, Virgo was a little drunk. He drank a lot today.

"Virgin, please tell me." Secretary Qi, who was sitting in the passenger seat, turned around.

"What do you think of Yuan Shouwang's request today?"

The chief asked, during today's celebration banquet, Yuan Shouwang took the opportunity of a toast to proactively request to leave the Operations Department and make way for Chu Lingyun.

"He is overthinking. Chu Lingyun is not suitable for promotion to deputy section chief at present."

Secretary Qi smiled slightly. He had the best grasp of Virgo's psychology. Although Chu Lingyun was promoted to lieutenant colonel today, Virgo had no plans to promote his actual position for the time being.
