Chapter 245 Lin Zhijiang's Rebellion
Chen Gongshu's expression changed slightly, and he stuffed the note into his mouth and swallowed it.
Taking the vegetables out of the basket, Chen Gongshu picked them while planning how to proceed with the next step without causing any disturbance.
Soon, a voice was heard from the door.
"Captain Chen, this is Lai Zi. A letter has arrived for you."
Chen Gongshu's face lit up with joy. He finally came.
Shanghai, Plum Blossom Tower.
Meiji officially began preparations on January 1st.
The office is located on the third and fourth floors of Meihua Building.
The second floor will continue to be reserved for the material transfer center.
Chen Yang stayed in the office, listening to the clanging sounds from upstairs, feeling a little annoyed.
"Knock knock knock," a knock on the door interrupted Chen Yang's thoughts.
"Come in," Chen Yang said in a deep voice. The door opened and He Yuehua stepped forward and said, "Sir, Director Li from Room 76 has brought someone to see you."
"He said he had top-secret information and he had to report it to you in person."
"Oh, then please ask him to come in." Chen Yang's heart moved. It seemed that the plan was going smoothly.
There was a sound of footsteps, and Li Qun and Chen Gongshu appeared at the door of the office.
"Hello, Chief Chen." Li Qun brought Chen Gongshu into the office and greeted him quickly.
"Director Li, you took the time to come here. Who is this?" Chen Yang looked at Chen Gongshu and asked curiously.
Li Qun quickly introduced: "Commander Chen, this is the captain of the Jinling Fuxing Society's training brigade you mentioned before, Chen Gongshu, Captain Chen."
"Oh, so you are Captain Chen. I have heard a lot about you." Chen Yang stood up and made an inviting gesture, saying, "Director Li, Captain Chen, please take a seat."
The two of them did not refuse and sat down.
Chen Yang stared at the two and smiled, "Director Li, you just said there was top-secret information, what's going on?"
Li Qun winked at Chen Gongshu, who nodded and said, "Chief Chen, I have a letter here. Please take a look first."
As he spoke, Chen Gongshu took out a piece of letter from his pocket and handed it over.
Chen Yang took the letter, looked it up and down, and asked in confusion: "Lin Zhijiang? Who is this?"
Chen Gongshu replied respectfully: "Commander Chen, this Lin Zhijiang is my good friend. He is the deputy director of the Military Commission's Confidential Office and is responsible for the filing and organization of military meeting materials."
"He has some information that will be of great help to the empire."
"A deputy director of the Shancheng Confidential Office wants to defect to the Empire for no reason?" Chen Yang stared at Chen Gongshu and sneered, "Why do I feel that something is wrong with this?"
Chen Gongshu was stunned for a moment, and looked at Li Qun beside him with some hesitation.
"Ahem," Li Qun coughed twice in a fake manner and said, "Captain Chen, please explain your thoughts to the commander clearly."
"It's so unclear. Not to mention Commander Chen, I also doubt his intentions."
"Okay." Chen Gongshu nodded and said, "Lin Zhijiang, also known as Shuyao, is from Pan'an, Zhejiang Province. He was a student of the third term of the Whampoa Military Academy. He once served as the deputy director of the Confidential Affairs Department of the Party Affairs Investigation Section. He is a colleague of Director Ding."
"There is a reason why he wants to submit to the Empire. He is ill, and it is a terminal illness."
"Terminal illness?" Chen Yang was a little surprised.
"Yes, lung cancer." Chen Gongshu said, "Last April, he was diagnosed with lung cancer at Guangci Hospital. After a period of treatment, his condition has improved significantly."
"But more than a month ago, he knew his condition had begun to deteriorate."
"He originally wanted to take a pension and return home with his wife and children, but those people in the Ministry of Finance wanted to deduct even his money."
"The original amount of money approved for his medical treatment and consolation payment was 4,000 dollars, but after all the deductions, it was only over 1,600 dollars."
"He was so angry that he planned to use a confidential intelligence to exchange some living expenses for his wife and children so that they would not be left unattended after his death."
"It's human nature for a mother to love her child deeply." Chen Yang nodded slightly and said, "What confidential information does he have?"
Chen Gongshu said: "It is the latest military strategic deployment file of the Ninth War Zone."
"Last November, something big happened in Shancheng. The military deployment map of the Ninth War Zone was stolen by imperial agents. On December 19, the Military Commission specially convened a high-level military meeting to change the deployment of troops in each defense zone."
“He was the one who filed this document.”
"Well," Chen Yang's body trembled slightly, and he thought for a moment and said, "What does he want?"
Chen Gongshu said: "Fifty thousand US dollars."
Li Qun's face changed when he heard the price. Wasn't it 50,000 yuan before? Why did it become US dollars now?
Chen Yang frowned and tapped the table with his fingers, as if he was thinking about something. After a while, Chen Yang said in a gentle voice: "I will study this matter first. If his information is worth the price, arrange for him to come to Shanghai."
"I understand, sir. If you have no other instructions, we will leave first," Li Qun hurriedly pulled Chen Gongshu and said goodbye to Chen Yang.
Chen Yang waved his hand.
After leaving the office, Li Qun complained, "Brother Gong Shu, didn't we agree on 50,000 yuan before? You're asking for too much."
Chen Gongshu chuckled and said, "Director Li, you are helping us, we can't ask you for help in vain."
"When the money is in hand, fifty thousand dollars will go to Brother Shuyao, and the rest will naturally be used to honor you."
Li Qun opened his mouth but couldn't say anything.
The price of US dollar is very strong now, 50,000 US dollars can be exchanged for hundreds of thousands of oceans. If the other party only takes 50,000 oceans, then the rest.
Oh, Qianli became an official just for money. He would rather risk his reputation than surrender to the Japanese. He just wanted to get promoted and make money.
With such a huge sum of money in front of you, it would be strange if you weren't tempted.
It's not possible that people become traitors just for their beliefs.
"Brother Gongshu, don't do this next time." Li Qun said with a stern face, but he was very happy in his heart.
Shanghai, Consulate.
"The latest military strategic deployment file of the Ninth War Zone." Li Xianshu put down the pen in her hand and looked at Chen Yang with some surprise.
"Is this thing reliable?"
Chen Yang said cautiously, "He is the person brought by Director Li. His name is Chen Gongshu. He used to be the captain of the training brigade of the Jinling Fuxing Society, the station chief of the Military Control Commission's Beiping Station, and the station chief of the Shanghai Station."
"He surrendered to the Empire some time ago, and also handed over a list of all the military operatives lurking in Shanghai."
"Director Li seems to trust him very much. As for me, it's hard to say."
"Why?" Li Xianshu looked at Chen Yang with interest.
Chen Yang frowned and said, "I have read the report that Iwai-kun gave me. This Chen Gongshu was very important in the Military Control Commission before."
"I still have some reservations about him because he suddenly turned to the Empire, so I asked Director Li to carefully identify him."
"He is currently helping to train agents at Unit 76 and has no chance to get involved in intelligence work."
"As for this Lin Zhijiang he mentioned, I can't make up my mind right now."
"A few days ago, the newspaper reported that the Nationalist Air Force attacked the Hankou Airport and caused great damage."
"If this is also the latest strategic deployment, then the file in his hand will definitely be very helpful to the imperial army's next battle."
