Secret War Silent

"Yes, Secretary Mao, I understand." Luo Yao put down the phone and smiled slightly.

When Mao Qiwu called, it wasn't him who was ashamed, but Wei Daming. The boss came forward to suppress people.

Fortunately, the caller was Mao Qiwu. If Dai Yunong called in person, Wei Daming would be even more ashamed and lose his prestige.

……

This was the first time Luo Yao came to the telecommunications office to meet Wei Daming. Before that, Wei Daming kept saying that he didn't have time, either for a meeting or on the way to the meeting.

In a word: busy.

At this moment, I finally have free time.

Because, he wanted to accept Luo Yao's apology, this arrogant kid who didn't care about his senior finally bowed his head to him.

Although it's not his own credit, but being able to force the opponent to bow his head is a victory.

On the other hand, Luo Yao didn't intend to bow his head at all, and walked into Wei Daming's office with his head held high, as if he came to "receive" this office.

"Director Wei, Luo Yao, the staff officer in the Confidential Room, is reporting to you!"

"Counselor Luo, after three days of farewell, you should look at him with admiration. I didn't expect that in just half a year, you are worthy of the rank of lieutenant colonel. This speed of promotion is unique in the military command?" Wei Daming said strangely.

"Thank you, Director Wei, for your appreciation. These are all cultivated by Director Dai, which is why I am in a humble position today."

"As expected of Boss Dai's good student, good, very good!" Wei Daming chuckled, "Sit down, you have been in the telecommunications office for three days, tell me, how do you feel?"

"Feel?"

"Yes, feeling, real feeling!" Wei Daming sat down and asked.

"Everyone is doing their job, working hard, and the atmosphere is good." Luo Yao thought for a while and said.

"It seems that Staff Officer Luo's evaluation of the Telecommunications Department is quite high." Wei Daming couldn't help feeling a little proud.

Luo Yao neither nodded nor shook his head. In his opinion, there were many problems with the telecommunications department, but he would not be so stupid as to say it in front of Wei Daming.

Unless there is still half the time, he doesn't want to stay in the telecommunications office.

"Okay, what do you want to say, or what request do you have, just ask it?" Wei Daming looked down at Luo Yao with the attitude of a winner.

"About what happened last night, I said some inappropriate things on the phone. Please Director Wei be lenient."

"Are you apologizing to me?" Wei Daming leaned forward slightly, propping his elbows on the desk.

"Yes, Director Wei, I sincerely say sorry to you."

"Okay, I accept your apology, you can go out." Wei Daming said with a smug smile, pointing at the door.

"Yes." Luo Yao didn't feel angry at all, stood up very calmly, and walked out.

Luo Yao is not afraid of things, but if he can make the "secret research team" feel less constrained, he can bear it. It's not worth fighting for a while.

a week later.

Luo Yao returned to the mansion from the telecommunications office, it should have already posted a sign, "84" veterinary station.

"Don't ask me any questions now, prepare pen, ink and manuscript paper for me." The first thing Luo Yao did when he returned to the mansion was to ask Gong Hui to prepare manuscript paper for him.

Then, for a whole day and night, except for going to the bathroom, Luo Yao stayed in the study and wrote, using up thousands of sheets of manuscript paper in one go.

What Luo Yao wrote was all-encompassing, except for the rules and regulations of the "secret research group" and the secrecy regulations, there were also telegrams.

Hundreds of telegrams were stored in my mind, all of which were silently written down.

His goal in going to the Telecommunications Office was actually these hundreds of secret Japanese military telegrams intercepted by the Telecommunications Office. Luo Yao knew very well that these messages were all intercepted by the Telecommunications Office, and it was impossible to hand them over to the 'secret research team' for study. If he went to find Dai Yunong, who has never seen it, can get it.

At that time, Wei Daming only needs to find an excuse to procrastinate, and this matter may not be settled.

However, the radio station of the "secret research group" has just been established, and there are only a handful of intercepted telegrams, without a large number of samples, how to study it?How can I achieve results in a short period of time?

It can only be stolen by this method.

There was no other way. If he could get these telegrams, why would he be a "thief". In fact, Luo Yao's "I'm sorry" to Wei Daming was really sincere and sincere.

……

After receiving the telegram written by Luo Yaomo, Chi An was very excited. He already knew the first phase of the task that Luo Yao assigned to the "secret research team".

Find another way to decipher the secret code of the hidden radio station of the Japanese army in the mountain city.

Under normal circumstances, it may be easier to search for hidden Japanese spy stations than to decipher secret codes. This is common sense, after all, this is the situation at home.

But Luo Yao did the opposite.

Decipher the code first.

Moreover, one of the relatively easy directions was chosen, which was to decipher the secret message about the weather information sent to the Japanese aviation department by Japanese spies lurking in the mountain city.

This is a wonderful breakthrough.

After Chi An received the task, he immediately led people to conduct research, and asked Wen Xueren to conduct targeted monitoring. Of course, Osborn also participated.

Although some relevant messages were monitored, the number of samples was too small to analyze.

And Luo Yao went to the telecommunications office, and brought back hundreds of related telegrams, among which Luo Yao also sorted them out.

It saves the work of Chi An and others to pick out the telegrams.

"Group leader Luo, give me three days, and I will be able to decipher all these telegrams for you!" Chi An said excitedly after receiving these telegrams.

"Okay, I'll give you three days." Luo Yao knew that Chi An had already studied the secret codes of the Japanese army very deeply. If he could decipher them within three days, that would be three days.

"Today is the Lantern Festival. We were supposed to give everyone a day off. Now, I think everyone doesn't have the intention to have a holiday. However, once the message is deciphered, I will give everyone a three-day holiday!" Luo Yao said.

"Leader Luo, then we'll make a deal."

"Keep your word!"

With enough samples, Chi An and the others became more enthusiastic about their work, and the logistics support arranged by Luo Yao was absolutely sufficient.

If you are sleepy, you can have coffee if you want coffee, if you want tea, you can have tea, if you are hungry, you can have afternoon tea, or supper at night, and 24-hour hot water supply.

The fire in the charcoal stove was even more intense, and the office was brightly lit all night.

"Come on, everyone, have breakfast first, and go back to sleep when you are sleepy..."

"Seed cakes, soy milk, deep-fried dough sticks, and noodles, whatever you want, the kitchen will make for you. Don't be too polite. This is what the station manager Luo explained, and I will do my best to meet all your needs!" Cao Hui pushed the dining car into the office.

"Captain Cao, your service is too good. I used to work in the military command department, and I have never been treated like this before." Wu Yuliang exclaimed.

"This is the request of Station Master Luo. I must do it. If I can't do it, I have to pack up and leave and replace it with someone who can do it." Cao Hui said.

"Cao, do you have macaroni?" Osborne asked, looking up.

"Sorry, there is no macaroni, but there is this small noodle, why don't you just have a bite?" Cao Hui hurriedly said, "Lao Cai went on vacation yesterday and hasn't come back yet. We don't know how to cook western food, so please be patient." .”

"It doesn't matter, I also like noodles." Osborne is not picky. Although he really wants to eat Italian pasta, he likes Chinese food very much, and he has no resistance.

"Late, I have an idea..."

"Consultant Osborn, I also have an idea." Chi An also said.

"You speak first?"

"Consultant Osborn, you should talk first." Chi An said modestly. After all, Osborn has successful experience in cracking Japanese diplomatic secrets.

"Chi, according to my research, there is a huge difference between the secret code communication of the Japanese army and the secret code of diplomacy. Their diplomatic secret code is expressed in English, but although the secret code of the military system is also expressed in English letters, But in the end the translation was indeed in Japanese, I think, this is the reason why Luo asked you to join the secret research team, he is really a very thoughtful person." Osborn was not stingy about his admiration for Luo Yao.

"Heroes agree, Advisor Osborne, do you have any ideas for deciphering this secret code?" Chi An nodded and asked.

"A little bit, but I'm not sure yet. I think I need to meet with Luo and discuss it. How about you?" Osborne said with red eyes as he ate noodles with a fork.

"I have the same idea, otherwise, let's go find him after dinner?" Chi An suggested.

"Good idea, I agree."

Chapter 0218 The first effect

Luo Yao didn't close his eyes all day and all night. This time he slept until dawn. By the way, he also slept through the Lantern Festival. When he opened his eyes, it was already the sixteenth day of the first lunar month.

Open the windows and let the chilly early spring breeze in.

Cleared my mind.

Feeling refreshed.

dong dong...

Someone knocked on the door.

"Come in!" Luo Yao still lived on the third floor. Anyway, he was going back to Jiangcheng soon, so he didn't plan to move out. We'll talk about it when we get back.

Seeing Osborn and Chi An walking in hand in hand, Luo Yao was a little surprised. It was the first time that these two came to find him together.

"Consultant Osborn, Deputy Director Chi (deputy team leader), you two came here early in the morning, must have something important to look for me?" Luo Yao greeted me with a smile, "Quick, please come in and sit down."

"Thank you." The two thanked each other, one sat on a chair, and the other casually sat down next to Luo Yao's bed.

"Come, drink water, drink water." Luo Yao poured a glass of water for each of them.

"Zu Luo, consultant Osborne and I came to you to report to you about the idea of ​​deciphering the secret code of Japan's secret radio station in Shancheng." Chi An said first.

"Okay, you already have an idea?" Luo Yao asked in surprise.

"Yes, through our statistical comparison and research on the secret codes of the Japanese army and the diplomatic codes of the Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs, we found some situations that will help us decipher the secret codes of the Japanese army, at least for a certain kind of code. " Chi An said.

"Deputy team leader Chi is quite right. We suspect that the Japanese army's passwords use English letters to spell Japanese sounds. If this assumption is true, then this kind of password belongs to the 'rational patchwork'. For this 'rational patchwork' The password can be associated and analogized, which provides convenience for us to decipher." Osborne added.

"Consultant Osborn is right. As long as we make statistics based on Japanese grammar and idiomatic words, and add analysis of specific telegrams, we can try to decipher a specific telegram. For example, Luo Zuo started It is a very correct decision to ask us to start with a specific encrypted message," Chi An said.

"Well, keep talking."

"Luo, you are a genius decipherer, you immediately set the direction for us, otherwise, we might spend a lot of time and fail to achieve results." Osborn was not stingy with Luo Yao's compliments.

"For information on meteorological conditions, especially for latent stations, it is impossible for them to use Enge cipher machines for encryption, so we don't have to worry about them constantly changing the order of encryption, because they use fixed The cipherbook, which brings convenience to our deciphering. Meteorological information, the words and sentences used are very limited, and the information basically has a certain format, which we can identify through comparison. This point, in fact, It has already helped us get ahead of the work, and it can be said that it has saved us a lot of comparison and statistical work..." Chi An continued to follow Osborne's words.

Luo Yao nodded frequently. He really helped them finish the preliminary work, and why did Chi An continue to do it, because Chi An had done in-depth research on Japanese grammar, which he couldn't compare to. To decipher Japanese telegrams, you must have someone like him.

For example, in a telegram about the weather information of a mountain city, which word appears most frequently? For example, comparing the weather data of the mountain city and the weather conditions on the day when the Japanese plane bombed Chongqing, it is found that "scratch" Four" class has the most wind.

Then in these telegrams, the two English letters with the highest frequency represent the word "four", of course it may be "4" in Arabic numerals, and then the word after it may be the word "level".

In this way, by following the vine, from word to word, the general content of a telegram can basically be figured out.

Wei Daming was engaged in the deciphering of Chinese encrypted telegrams before, which was completely different from this one, so these telegrams were lying in the special technology research room, but they have not been deciphered.

But this is piecemeal, and a lot of work needs to be done to decipher it systematically, but it remains the same, and it also involves a lot of statistics and calculations, as well as research and analysis of Japanese grammar.

"Deputy Team Leader Chi, Consultant Osborn, since we have an idea, let's follow this idea, no matter whether we can decipher it or not, as long as the idea is correct, then we will be able to decipher it."

"It's better to look in this direction, Team Leader Luo. You can clear the clouds and see the sunny sky!"

"I'm just putting forward an idea, how to do it is up to you." Luo Yao said hastily. At this stage, there are no tools to assist in the calculation of code-breaking, so it can only be done by manpower.

Luo Yao did this in many ways, not only in order to achieve results as soon as possible, but also in order to be able to accurately grasp the bombing of the mountain city by Japanese planes and prepare in advance, thereby reducing the casualties of ordinary people.

People are the root of everything.

Now that we have a direction and a method, we just need to move in this direction now.

Chi An and the others are all full of energy.

If the code can be deciphered within a few days, it would be a great achievement, especially Chi An, since he entered this industry ignorantly, he hasn't made any achievements yet, he is not reconciled.

Now, I finally have the opportunity to achieve results, so I don't have to work hard.

At the same time, he also realized the importance of an excellent team. In the past, they were not without people and financial support, but why couldn't they produce results?

Isn't it the team?

Especially the issue of the leader, Team Leader Luo, despite his young age, he is very knowledgeable, and he can give you the right direction.

Under his command, you only need to work hard, and you don't have to worry about anything else. You will have all the fame and fortune.

In particular, the free and relaxed working atmosphere here makes Chi An feel like a fish in water. Even working in the Central Radio Station, there are various personnel situations, which are sometimes very troublesome. The rigidity and incompetence of the bureaucracy, If it wasn't for the war of resistance and saving the country, he would have given up doing it long ago.

After breakfast, Luo Yao also joined in the work.

Now that there is one more person and more strength, the speed of analysis and deciphering will naturally be accelerated.

In addition to the division of labor and responsibility, continuous discussions and demonstrations are needed in the middle, and brainstorming is required to ensure that there are fewer mistakes.

This is really day and night, forgetting to eat and sleep.

Chi An didn't go to work at the radio station for a few days in a row, but he didn't like it and came to him, Chi An simply quit his job.
