Spy Shadow

Chapter 457: Showing merit and giving money

"Chen Shu, you have done well recently."

In a luxurious apartment in the French Concession, Chu Zuo was talking to Chen Shu alone.

He came in secret, and Chen Shu didn't know about it beforehand. He didn't know until Virgo arrived, and Chen Shu was also the first person whom Virgo met.

"Virgo, there is nothing hard to do in your humble position."

Chen Shu immediately replied that the work of Shanghai Station during this period could not be said to be satisfactory, but at least it was not bad.

If it weren't for Chu Lingyun's wartime intelligence team for comparison, they would actually have done a good job.

The traitors were punished without any losses, and occasionally some information was reported. It was a good achievement at the beginning of the fall.

"Shanghai Station will continue to work hard in the future. I am here this time to clarify the responsibilities of you and Chu Lingyun again."

Virgo smiled and nodded. The wartime intelligence team was specially established when he was in Nanjing to pursue Huang Hang's case. After that, he originally wanted to bring Chu Lingyun to the Rangers and hand over the special agent brigade to him.

Chu Lingyun is now also the captain of the special agent team, but he is mainly responsible for the wartime intelligence team.

The intelligence team did not disappoint him. Whether it was during the Shanghai War or now, he has made many meritorious services, which made him a lot of honor to the old man.

"Please make it clear."

Chen Shu's heart moved. The better the wartime intelligence team did, the more he wanted to get this intelligence team. Even without Chu Lingyun, there were hundreds of people, and there were many elites. If they could be annexed, it would be a huge help. To enhance the strength of Shanghai Station.

"From now on, your Shanghai station will be mainly responsible for lurking, sanctioning, penetrating and providing intelligence to the special team. You should spend more time and find ways to place some people among the puppet government and the Japanese, and pay attention to their movements. At the same time, I will send the special team's information Part of the command will be given to you."

Virgo said slowly, Chen Shu was startled for a moment, and then said in surprise: "Thank you, Virgo."

Sanctions and lurking are their duties. There are not only various guerrilla groups outside Shanghai, but also a large number of Rangers.

Even if he has partial command power, it means that his strength has been greatly improved.

He understands that Virgo cannot give all the command to him.

There are a lot of Rangers. There are at least several thousand people outside the city now, and Virgo has been expanding the Rangers, and the number will be even more in the future.

"Chu Lingyun's wartime intelligence team will specialize in intelligence work. You will complement each other. If he needs your help for important operations, you cannot refuse and must give your full support."

Before arriving, Virgo had considered the problems of the Shanghai Station and the wartime intelligence team.

There is too much overlap in the work of the two, which is not a good thing.

Before, they lurked in a hurry and did not clarify their responsibilities. This time, they were divided into tasks so that they would not conflict with each other and better fight against the Japanese invaders.

"yes."

Chen Shu responded again. With the command of the Rangers, he didn't care so much about the intelligence team.

There are quite a few people in the intelligence team, but only a few hundred people.

There are thousands of people in the Einsatzgruppe.

What he was jealous of were the elite agents in the intelligence team. Chu Lingyun had been selecting them everywhere before the war and selected all the good ones.

It is no exaggeration to say that the current headquarters members are not as experienced as Chu Lingyun's intelligence team.

He doesn't need all the elites. He can just select ten or twenty of the best and transfer them to the Shanghai Station later. It is not easy to annex the entire wartime intelligence team, but it is not difficult to recruit people.

Chen Shu's calculation was good, but he didn't plan to mention it this time. Virgo had just given him a jujube and the Rangers had been handed over to him. He couldn't leave the impression of being greedy on Virgo.

Do you want people? There will be plenty of ways in the future.

After seeing Chen Shu off, Virgo moved to the public concession, where Chu Lingyun was already waiting.

"Virgo."

"Sit down, sit down and talk."

Seeing Chu Lingyun, Virgo couldn't help but smile on his face. Chu Lingyun didn't pick him up outside. People like them who were lurking must keep a low profile.

The concession is not the territory of the Japanese, but the Japanese have more influence on the concession than the Kuomintang, so we must be cautious.

"You've been doing very well recently. I didn't want to leave you behind at the beginning, but luckily you persisted."

Virgo sat down by himself and said with a smile that he had indeed wanted to take Chu Lingyun away with him before, and Chu Lingyun had also returned to Nanjing several times.

But he insisted on staying in Shanghai and continuing to work with the wartime intelligence team.

In Shanghai after the war, intelligence personnel need to stay. If we don't conduct a lurking at this time, it will be more difficult in the future.

Facts have proved that Chu Lingyun did a good job. Whether it was spying on intelligence or punishing traitors, he did it better than the Shanghai station.

"Virgo, you're here at the right time. I have something to report to you here."

Chu Lingyun didn't ask any more questions, and she didn't say stupid things like not letting him go to meet him in advance. This was behind enemy lines, and Virgo was a Japanese official.

If the Japanese know that he has arrived in Shanghai, don't try their best to catch him.

For safety's sake, it's right not to reveal your whereabouts.

"Okay, what kind of job?"

Virgo smiled and nodded. The work that Chu Lingyun reported so carefully must not be a trivial matter.

But as Chu Lingyun narrated, Virgo's expression became more and more serious, and finally he sat up straight with shock on his face.

He thought that the Shanghai station and the intelligence team did a good job, but compared with Chu Lingyun's report just now, those before were nothing at all.

Chu Lingyun unknowingly played such a huge game of chess and made the Shanghai Special Higher Education School go round and round.

"Virgin, the plan is currently being implemented in the second step. The results of the first step are very significant. If the second step is successful, the threat to us from the super high school will be greatly reduced in the future."

The first step is to disrupt the special high school, and the second step is to support Rose and Catfish to rise to power.

By replacing the enemy's generals with one of your own, the Special High School will not be completely transparent from now on, but it will basically be impossible to hide anything from them.

The most important thing is that these are the actions of Mitsui Amu himself. He will not notice anything unusual, let alone think that the right and left men around him are traitors.

"Okay, great."

After Chu Lingyun finished speaking, Virgo shouted loudly, startling Secretary Qi outside the door.

Secretary Qi was guarding the door and could not hear what they said, but Virgo was so loud that it was difficult not to hear them.

"Ling Yun, you always give me various surprises every time."

Virgo sighed and said that he knew about Hasegawa's arrest and Chu Lingyun reported it. He was very happy at first, but then Chu Lingyun sent a message and he wanted to use Hasegawa to do something.

Virgo has no objection. Hasegawa is important, but far less important than Chu Lingyun.

Chu Lingyun's instigation of Hasegawa's rebellion was already a great achievement. If it had been anyone else, he would have claimed the credit long ago and let Hasegawa lurk in the special high school to provide them with important information.

But Chu Lingyun didn't, and he actually regarded Hasegawa as an abandoned son.

People like the leader of the intelligence team will give up at will. Let alone other people, Virgo himself may not have such courage.

Even if Hasegawa has been arrested, it will be impossible to get rid of him as long as the Special High School does not have enough evidence.

After all, Hasegawa's identity is different. He can still obtain useful information even if he is not the leader of the intelligence team.

His identity is too important.

Chu Lingyun didn't hesitate and never thought about keeping him. The purpose of giving up him was to let both Rose and Catfish take over.

I have to admit, this is a great move.

Hasegawa has been arrested, and it is impossible to determine whether he is a traitor. No matter how much Mitsui trusts him, it is impossible to continue to reuse him. Instead of letting Hasegawa, an unstable factor, to pass on information, it is better to let Mitsui choose someone he trusts.

Things are indeed coming true step by step according to Chu Lingyun's plan.

Rose was re-appointed as the leader of the operations team. His position as the leader of the operations team this time was much stronger than last time. Catfish was a confidant that Mitsui thought he had cultivated. He would later be placed in the intelligence team and continue to provide them with intelligence.

Both Rose and Catfish are much more reliable than Hasegawa.

After all, they have all provided a lot of intelligence to the Military Intelligence Agency, and they have long been unable to get off the ship.

Needless to say, Rose, the former leader of the operations team, Kobayashi Kobayashi, died because of his betrayal. The Military Intelligence Department still has fatal information in its hands, as well as Lan Chuchu.

In order to take revenge, Catfish has long ignored it. All the losses of the intelligence organization in Wuhan before were leaked by him.

Moreover, Catfish has a new lover. If he exposes his identity, he will die. If he takes the initiative to confess, it is impossible for the Japanese to forgive him. After all, the damage he has caused is too great.

For the sake of his fiancée, he would not be stupid enough to die now.

These two people are indeed better than Hasegawa and others.

The most important thing is that Chu Lingyun is just pushing, but it is Mitsui Amu who really makes the decision. In this case, he will only trust these two people more, and will not think that they have already defected to the Chinese.

"I was lucky. If Liao Wu hadn't suddenly attacked, it would have been difficult to capture Hasegawa alive, so there would have been no plans."

Chu Lingyun took the opportunity to help Liao Wu describe his merits. People like Liao Wu were indeed rare.

"Liao Wu, what a pity."

Virgo sighed. He didn't know Liao Wu before. There were so many people in the Military Intelligence Department, and he couldn't possibly know everyone.

But Liao Wu's last heroic act made him admire him very much.

"Virgin, next I want the intelligence team to be dedicated to gathering intelligence. Now the intelligence in the rear is very important. Only with enough intelligence can we reduce the losses of our army."

Chu Lingyun didn't talk about Chi Zhoushang's affairs. Chi Shang was making arrangements but did not see any results.

It won’t be too late to report the results later.

Just like this time, we have achieved results and reported them together when Virgo comes.

"You are right to think about it. This is exactly why I came here this time."

The leader nodded and re-arranged the work of the Shanghai Station and the Wartime Intelligence Group. This was indeed one of the purposes of his visit. From now on, the Intelligence Group would be responsible for intelligence full-time and would no longer carry out sanctions and other tasks.

In this way, their chances of exposure can be reduced and more intelligence can be obtained.

Especially this time Chu Lingyun's report, he did not expect that the intelligence team had achieved so many results, which made him firm up his previous thoughts.

Good steel must be used on good blades.

Before, he felt that the Shanghai Station was doing very well. Although it was slightly inferior to the wartime intelligence team, it was not far behind.

But looking at it now, Chen Shu is no worse than Chu Lingyun. Chu Lingyun has turned the Shanghai Extra High School upside down and made enemies mess around, while Chen Shu is still doing lurking work in a satisfactory manner.

Virgo understood that Chu Lingyun could do this because they had catfish and roses in their hands.

Chu Lingyun's plan this time is to revitalize these two insiders who are placed at the heart of the enemy and make them truly effective.

However, Chu Lingyun instigated the rebellion of Rose and Catfish, and it was his credit.

Only Chu Lingyun can do this, not anyone else.

"Virgo, tomorrow is the new year, I wish you a happy new year."

Chu Lingyun took out a check from his pocket, a US dollar check for a total of 40,000.

It's time to pay tribute once every six months, and it's just the right time to send it out on New Year's Day.

The business of sulfonamide is still very good today, and wars are going on everywhere. Chu Lingyun has no worries about selling sulfonamide. After the price increase, he sells more.

Even Virgo has received a lot of favors because of Chu Lingyun's sulfa.

"You."

Seeing the check, Virgo's eyes lit up. Forty thousand dollars was not a small amount. Now his biggest income was Chu Lingyun and Xie Zhennan.

Xie Zhennan's smuggling is more profitable, but it is still not elegant. Unlike Chu Lingyun's side, he can give him money and the money comes from the right way, so there is no need to worry about anything going wrong.

"Do a good job, I'm leaving first."

Virgo will not stay with Chu Lingyun, he has his own safe place to live.

He did not tell the real purpose of his visit this time. He had absolute trust in Chu Lingyun, but there were some things that he could not tell, and he would never tell them.

…

The Fifth Battalion of the Japanese Army Aviation Department.

"Check again. No problem. I'll treat you to dinner for the New Year."

Today is the last day of the year 37. The Japanese celebrated the Lunar New Year just like China before Meiji, but they made changes after Meiji.

New Year's Day has become their new Spring Festival and one of the important festivals in Japan.

After going back last time, Chishang changed from his usual decadent work state. Not only was he serious, but he was also extremely strict. He also worked personally and checked out many safety hazards.

For this he was praised by the captain and reported to the alliance.

This kind of credit is not big, but it is still credit and gives Chishang great confidence.

He has been looking for an opportunity to make a real great contribution according to Chu Lingyun's instructions, and rely on this merit to be transferred to the alliance.

The opportunity was indeed found by him.

There are two squads under the Fifth Group, with a total of more than 20 fighter planes. They are responsible for the daily maintenance of these aircraft.

However, the ground crew does not do everything, and the storage of weapons is not their responsibility.

Next to the hangar is the weapons depot.

The person in charge of the weapons depot is the deputy captain. He is usually lazy and not so serious about his work.

Chishang discovered that there were many potential safety hazards outside the weapons depot, including one area where wires were exposed.

Once these wires catch fire, the consequences can be disastrous.

Chu Lingyun told him that he should work seriously and responsibly, find potential safety hazards that had nothing to do with him, and create a safety accident.

He works conscientiously and the safety accident has nothing to do with him. If he handles it in time, it will be a great achievement.

You can indeed achieve meritorious service without being on the battlefield. Such merit is definitely not inferior to how many enemies you have destroyed on the battlefield, or even greater merit.

Second update, there will be an additional update today, and it will be updated later.
