Secret War Silent

The security measures are so strict that even Gong Hui feels like making a fuss out of a molehill, but that's what Luo Yao asked, and everyone must follow it.

"Director Chi, let me introduce your research results last week."

"Since the station master wants me to tell, I'll just briefly talk about the research situation in the past two weeks since we turned to the Japanese diplomatic code." Chi An stood up and said solemnly.

"Under the guidance of consultant Osborne, we conducted statistics and analysis on the intercepted Japanese diplomatic codes, and eliminated some specific messages. We found that Japan's diplomatic codes are generally divided into two types. The first type of code is relatively simple. The secret code of the Japanese Air Force that we deciphered before is similar. Its characteristic is that two English letters represent a pseudonym letter, and sometimes represent a Chinese character. In rare cases, there are also words or phrases that represent more than two Chinese characters. It starts with the letter 'LA', so I named it the 'LA' code."

Wen Xueren took over the conversation: "The ciphers in the 'LA' code mentioned by Director Chi are the shortest among the Japanese diplomatic ciphers, and they are extremely numerous, about one or two hundred copies per day, accounting for about one-third of the Japanese diplomatic ciphers we intercepted. As many as one."

"What about deciphering the situation?"

"There is some progress, a lot of statistical work is still being done, and some can only be guessed, but from the current analysis, the contents of these secret messages are mostly daily notifications and the like. Deciphering has certain value, but the value is not Very high," said Jia Bingwen, director of the Statistics Office.

"As long as it can be deciphered, we must decipher it for him. There is no valuable information in this world, but whether you can see his value."

"Yes."

"Is the second type of Japanese diplomatic code similar to the first type? He uses two kana letters to replace one, two, or even three or four Chinese characters, for example, attack, retreat, division commander, etc., this kind of The structure of the cipher code is more complicated. We need to decipher the letters of the pseudonym first, and then guess the corresponding Chinese character phrase based on the words we have mastered. Don’t look at the extra step, the difficulty is actually multiplied by ten times. , This kind of secret code is generally used for the transmission of their confidential messages, once deciphered, we will be able to grasp a lot of important information about the Japanese army." Chi An continued to introduce.

Luo Yao nodded.

"Deciphering this kind of secret code requires very familiarity with Japanese, at least not enough, you must reach a certain level." The new researcher Zhu Shaoxian said.

"Do you need more manpower?"

"Not yet." Chi An shook his head.

"Advisor Osborne, what do you have to say?" Luo Yao turned to the only advisor of the "secret research team". He respected this Yankee enough, at least his current role was irreplaceable.

The most important person always speaks at the end, which made Osborne feel respected, so he kissed his voice and said: "Through my research on the intercepted telegrams from the Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs, I found that they are sending Time is very regular, for example, the time and place are fixed, which makes it easy for us to find the rules in it. For example, when marking the time, they will have the phenomenon of overlapping pseudonyms in the telegrams sent continuously. We You can use this to analyze the meaning of these pseudonyms..."

"Very good. It seems that everyone is very enthusiastic about their work, and the progress is faster than I imagined." Luo Yao was very happy. In fact, he also knew that there was at least one strategic-level secret code in Japan's diplomatic secret code. However, this kind of secret code communication is not often used and it is difficult to intercept.

Even if it is intercepted, it will be difficult to decipher it with their current ability and technical strength.

It can only be said that deciphering the secret code is a matter that cannot be rushed. You have to take your time, and you won't be able to eat a fat man.

"I ask you to report your results immediately. However, you have to make progress every day. Even if it is wrong, it counts. Deciphering codes is actually a process of trial and error. Many times, we are just short of this. Maybe when , this window paper will be broken with a light poke." Luo Yao concluded his speech.

"Station Master, where is the Japanese typewriter you promised?"

"Luo, I hope to have a commercial 'Engeny' cipher machine for research, as you know, most of the world's strategic-level encrypted communication encryption is designed based on the 'Engeny' cipher machine. said Osborne.

"You two, these two things are not so easy to do. I'm already working hard. I hope you two can give me a certain amount of time, okay?"

"OK!"

"Osborn, I heard that your eyes are not very good recently, have you seen a doctor?" Luo Yao asked.

"The doctor said it was conjunctivitis and I needed to rest. There shouldn't be any problem." Osborne said, "Luo, I run with you every day. I feel like I'm back in my 20s. It's very good."

"Really, I thought you would scold me in your heart."

"Haha, those students like to call you 'perverted' station master, in fact, I think so too." Osborne laughed presumptuously.

"I don't mind these, they will be grateful to me in the future." Luo Yao said with a smile.

"Dismiss!"

……

Luo Yao also wanted to participate in the work of the "secret research team". Sometimes, he would sit in the radio room for several hours, copying the intercepted telegrams.

Sometimes, the analysis and calculation of relevant encrypted messages only takes up a very small part of the management work of the "84 Veterinary Station", and they seldom go out unless there is something really important.

Also, to give lessons to newcomers, he can be said to have several jobs, and his daily schedule is full. There is such a "perverted" webmaster who forgets to eat and sleep.

Among the subordinates, who dares to slack off?

The national army lost land one after another in the front. The Japanese army attacked Nanchang City and took it in less than a day. When the news came, it cast a shadow over the Anti-Japanese War.

Wang Zhaoming arrived in Jinghai in secret. Although he kept it strictly confidential, there is no impenetrable wall in the world. He just arrived in Jinghai.

The military command knows it here.

It is estimated that the matter of "stabbing Wang" was arranged again, this time in the Tranquility Concession, but with the Japanese and traitor spy agency No. 76 under strict protection, it may be more difficult than in Hanoi.

With Dai Yunong's perseverance, it is estimated that he will not give up.

In the mountain city in April, the temperature is already very warm, the thick cotton coats have been taken off, and people put on thinner coats.

The branches are green and the flowers are blooming, which is a lively scene.

However, there is always a group of annoying flies in the sky, come to harass me from time to time, and drop two bombs, which is really annoying.

The Xiangcheng station finally agreed to let him go. There was really no need to offend the people in the bureau headquarters because of the two young girls who were not too high.

After all, Luo Yao is now the staff officer of the Lieutenant Colonel of Division A. He is qualified to consult many confidential messages of the military command, and he is also qualified to attend every meeting.

It's just that he is a staff officer for the convenience of his work, and has no real power. He usually doesn't go to the meetings of Room A unless he is called to attend by name.

However, "Veterinary Station No. 84" spread inside the Military Command Bureau, and was even ridiculed by some other organizations.

It's just that very few people know what the "veterinary station" is for, most of them are at the top. People outside don't even know that this is a secret code-breaking agency inside the Military Control Bureau. A military special technology research room of a secret code deciphering agency.

And the outside world also believes that the last time the military command deciphered the secret code of the aviation related to the spies lurking in the mountain city in Japan was the result of the special technology research laboratory.

For this reason, Wei Daming, the director of the research office, had a big disagreement with Dr. Wen Yuqing, the director of the Secret Inspection Office.

The secret inspection office wanted to come to the military command to steal teachers in the name of learning, but Dai Yunong couldn't refuse and agreed. However, the experts from the secret inspection office stayed in the special technology research room of the military command for a week and found that they had been deceived.

The Special Technology Research Office of the Military Command did not decipher the so-called secret communication code of the Japanese Air Force at all, thinking that the Military Command was deceiving, and even sued the old man.

However, the military command of the family kept reporting the deciphered Japanese military aviation communication codes to the attendant's room, and it turned out that they were all correct.

Wen Yuqing lost a big face in front of the old man, and the relationship with Dai Yunong had a rift.

He also knew that there was another organization in the military system that was engaged in code deciphering research, and had poached Chi An, the backbone of the "Japanese Imperial Army Secret Code Research Group" that once belonged to the Military and Political Department.

This talent is key.

However, the military command kept this organization very secret, and no one knew of his existence. Wen Yuqing wanted to inquire about the situation through Wei Daming several times.

Although Wei Daming had a grudge with Luo Yao, he also knew that if he disclosed the information about the "secret research group" to Wen Yuqing, he would definitely be disliked by Dai Yunong.

What's more, he has been unable to use his strength in the secret inspection office, and Wen Yuqing guarded him like a thief, how could he tell Wen Yuqing?

In this way, Wen Yuqing was very frustrated. The secret inspection office spent so much money every month, and there were special funds, but there were no special results.

In late April, the Japanese bombers bombed the mountain city suddenly became more frequent, coming almost every day, and the number and intensity of bombing sorties also increased greatly.

The Japanese air force finally realized that there was a problem with their secret communication code, and replaced it with a new code.

Chapter 0250 Old Wu is Here

"Boss, there is a call from the No. 84 veterinary station, saying that the Japanese have recently changed the password, and the weather has been fine recently, and the Japanese army is likely to launch a large-scale air strike on the mountain city."

"Is there any definite information, or is it speculation?" Dai Yunong asked after pondering for a while.

Mao Qiwu thought for a while and said: "It should be a guess. The previously deciphered code has lost its effect, and now it needs to be deciphered again. In addition to time, a large number of samples are needed for statistics."

"How soon can it be deciphered?"

"It's hard to say. The last time the password was deciphered quickly, it was because we already had enough encrypted communication messages, and the encryption method used by the Japanese Air Force's encrypted communication code was relatively simple. This time, the Japanese army suddenly changed the password. It is a routine replacement, but we were forced to replace it only after we deciphered their code, and further analysis is needed," Mao Qiwu explained.

"Well, let's see what's next. We need to work harder on air defense. Let me know that all departments of the military command will conduct a big air defense exercise the day after tomorrow. These days, we can always predict the Japanese bombing in advance. Everyone is used to it. It's a good thing."

"Yes, You Ning also suggested the same. He said that if they can't decipher the Japanese army's secret message in the near future, they need to strengthen the early warning facilities. It is best to set up a large number of air defense posts. Once an enemy plane is found, report it as soon as possible, and we can fight for it. some time."

"Well, he's quite thoughtful." Dai Yunong nodded, "Why haven't I seen him come to the Bureau headquarters recently? It seems that he hasn't been here since the last April [-] conference?"

"I have been here, but I have not come to you."

"He didn't think about coming to see me when I co-authored it?" Dai Yunong said very dissatisfied.

"Aren't you busy? What's more, when he came, you weren't here, what do you think?" Mao Qiwu laughed, not at all dissatisfied.

"I know this kid. He doesn't like to ask others to do things. He has to solve things by himself. Unless he can't solve them, he will ask for help."

"You're really right. He has come here twice to ask for help." Mao Qiwu chuckled.

"I beg you?"

"I begged once, and the other time I didn't come to beg me."

"Tell me, what did he beg you to do?" Dai Yunong asked with a curious expression.

"This..." Mao Qiwu hesitated for a moment, but didn't say anything. He had promised Luo Yao not to say anything about Su Li.

"Is it his teacher Yu Jie?"

"No, his teacher Yu Jie's assistants in Hanoi. They are students in the temporary training class." Mao Qiwu dared not hide anything from Dai Yunong. Originally, as long as Dai didn't ask, he didn't have to. Now that he asked, he would I have to say no more.

"Is he not responsible for Hanoi's actions?"

"There is no responsibility. He is just responsible for helping to deal with some sundries and surrounding security. After he came back, he asked about the relevant situation and was released after three days of confinement." Mao Qi said five times, "Because there is no place to arrange, Youning see When he got it, he came to me to ask for someone, and I said he could borrow it for a few days, but if his final arrangement was made, he would have to exchange it for me.”

"You, you are too cautious. He is short of people, so just give him. This Su Li is also an outstanding graduate of the temporary training class?" Dai Yunong asked.

"One of the five tigers in training."

"Well, let's go through a formality and transfer Su Li directly to the veterinary station." Dai Yunong ordered, "By the way, there is one more time. What is he here for?"

"It's also for transferring people, but the person who came here is Li Xiukai, the chief of the personnel department."

"Oh, why didn't I come to you directly?"

"It's probably because I'm afraid of trouble, and it's not a particularly troublesome thing." Mao Qiwu explained with a smile.

"Recently, the battle situation on the front line is very bad, and the principal can't sleep at night. Now Wang Zhaoming has come to Jinghai again, and he has completely fallen into the arms of the Japanese. Our pressure is getting bigger and bigger. Ding Mocun and Lin Shiqun in Jinghai The traitors of the Central Committee are becoming more and more powerful in the concession, and the Communist Party is developing too fast in the northwest and southeast of Shanxi, and has won many consecutive victories, which is really worrying." Dai Yunong said worriedly.

"Yes, if the party-state continues like this, I really don't know what will happen in the future?" Mao Qiwu also showed a trace of worry.

"My generation of soldiers should be loyal to the leader and serve the country as our duty." Dai Yunong changed the subject, "Qi Wu, the activities of the Communist Party in the mountain city are becoming more and more rampant. You should pay more attention to it. What should be restricted should be restricted." Yes, this is the territory of the party-state, not a place where they run wild."

"Yes, Boss Dai."

……

Shapingba Ciqikou·Xiahekou Street.

Ciqikou, also known as Longyin Town, got its name later because of the transshipment and sale of porcelain produced in the nearby Qingcaopo. It is the largest porcelain production base in the Shancheng area.

Therefore, porcelain prospered, forming a lively village and town, and also attracted merchants who traded porcelain from south to north.

However, the Shaping kiln is not comparable to the official kiln and famous kiln like Jingdezhen. Most of the porcelain fired is of ordinary varieties, and most of them are for ordinary household use. The profit is still considerable.

The Qingcaopojiang family is the leading porcelain-making family in the local area. The family has multiplied here for hundreds of years, inheriting the Dehua kiln in Fujian, and it is the eighth generation since it settled down.

In addition, there are also porcelain-making families such as the Lu family, the Hong family, and the Luo family.

Ciqikou is in the countryside, far away from the urban area, so it is easy to hide and not easy to be noticed. When Lao Wu was given the choice of where to stay.

This is the first thing that Luo Yao paid attention to.

Because it is not far from the Songlinpo mansion where he lived, and the later Zhazidong, Geleshan Bai mansion is also very close, and the military command also set up a country office at the Ciqikou silk reeling factory. It will also move to Ciqikou to work.

This can be regarded as taking a place in advance, after all, this place is not too important now, even the military command is just here to take a place first.

It has been half a month since Lao Wu arrived in Shancheng. According to what he had discussed with Luo Yao, he bought a storefront on Xiahe Street and opened a grocery store.

He didn't dare to contact Luo Yao rashly, and quietly waited for Luo Yao to come to him.

This is what they agreed upon.

Of course, Luo Yao did not forget his agreement with Lao Wu, but he was not sure the date of Lao Wu's arrival in the mountain city. Also, even if he arrived, he still had to look for shops, buy goods, and settle down, all of which would take time.

He can't run to Ciqikou twice in three days, anyone with a discerning eye can see that he has a purpose.

The advantage of moving to Ci'en Temple is that he can get rid of Gong Hui's "surveillance" at any time, and his degree of freedom is much greater.

Occasionally go out once or twice, and there is no need to let her know.

Of course, Gong Hui will not restrict his freedom, but he has a secret and cannot let Gong Hui know about it. After all, he also knows Dai Yunong's purpose for keeping Gong Hui by her side.

Military commanders already have a tradition of "mutual surveillance" of their own people.

Even his own people don't believe that the internal atmosphere of such a spy organization is actually very oppressive. If this kind of control method is not under the oppression of a powerful foreign enemy, it will go wrong sooner or later.

"I'm out of cigarettes, I'm going out to buy cigarettes."

Luo Yao casually found an excuse to go to Ciqikou, an excuse that was too deliberate would arouse suspicion from others.

"Station Master, shall I send someone to buy it for you?" Qi Zhibin said.

"No, I don't mind buying it with my own hands, and I also want to go out to breathe, what do you think?" Luo Yao chuckled.
