Spy Wars: Red Agent Codename Phoenix

Xiang Chu led his men and quickly rode away from the ambush point.

They entered an abandoned village and changed into Japanese military uniforms.

Yu Xiaowan said worriedly, "Brother Chu! We left hoofprints all the way. If we continue riding back to Shanghai, we will still be suspected of being the attackers."

Xiang Chu laughed and said, "Don't worry! These horses will be given to the New Fourth Army, and we'll take a car back to Shanghai."

Liu Zhengxiong suggested, "Chief! Why not give the credit for defeating the Japanese 11th Division commander and other high-ranking officers to the New Fourth Army?"

Xiang Chu nodded and said, "Of course!"

He took the radio and sent a telegram.

After he finished sending the message, Yu Xiaowan said impatiently, "Where are we going to catch a car in this desolate place?"

Xiang Chu pointed to the southeast and said, "Lan Cheng is already waiting with the convoy on the highway ahead, but it's only five kilometers away. You should be able to run there without any problem."

Yu Xiaowan said domineeringly, "I'm a female knight-errant! I'm just as fast as you. Let's go!"

After saying that, she pulled him and rushed out of the village.

"Come on!"

Xiang Chu shouted, urging everyone to follow.

They arrived at the location of the convoy led by Lan Cheng in 20 minutes.

A long line of cars, jeeps, and trucks were parked.

Xiang Chu and the others boarded the car, and the convoy headed towards Shanghai.

Chongqing, combat research conference room.

Governor Jiang stepped onto the podium and commended:

"Gentlemen! The Military Intelligence Bureau dispatched an anti-Japanese assassination team, which successfully assassinated the Japanese puppet general and head of the Takeo Agency, Doihara Hama, in Kaifeng yesterday. This is truly inspiring. Acting Director! The magistrate will personally announce the commendation. Before the commendation, please come up on stage and describe it in detail."

"Yes!"

Dai Nong nodded happily.

He took out a stack of newspapers and said with a smile, "Gentlemen! The matter of the assassination of General Doihara has been reported in the newspapers. Caiwei! Please help me distribute it."

"it is good!"

Ning Caiwei smiled and nodded, taking the newspaper and distributing it to him.

She came from the Military Intelligence Bureau, so she still had to give Dai Nong face.

Chen Guo said sourly, "The newspapers these past two days have been really interesting. First, there was the story of the head of the Film Bureau massacring Eighth Route Army soldiers, and then there was the story of the Military Intelligence Bureau's assassination squad killing the head of the Bamboo Bureau."

"Acting Director! Shouldn't your anti-traitor squad be targeting traitors? Instead, you're killing Japanese generals! Haha!"

Dai Nong laughed and said, "Director Chen! Isn't it right to kill Japanese devils? If you're so capable, go and kill them too."

"you!"

Chen Guo was so angry that she couldn't speak.

At this moment, Xu Zeng handed him a newspaper and said with a smile:

"Director! Doihara Hiroshi launched Operation Clean Net in Kaifeng and wiped out all the Kuomintang agents who had been lying in wait."

Chen Guo took the newspaper and pretended to be extremely shocked, saying, "Acting Director! Doihara Kenji is not dead yet. He even personally organized an operation and wiped out all the agents of your Military Intelligence Bureau who had infiltrated Kaifeng. Come and see how sweetly Doihara Kenji is smiling."

Dai Nong waved his hand and said, "Not dead? Impossible!"

Governor Chiang exclaimed in surprise, "Doihara Hamako is really not dead?!"

Chen Guo hurriedly handed over the newspaper, smiling broadly as she said:

"Absolutely true! Doihara Hamako is alive and well."

Governor Chiang took the newspaper, glanced at it, and said in a voice eight octaves higher:

"Acting Director! You're being far too frivolous."

Dai Nong hurriedly grabbed the newspaper to check it, his face turning bright red, and he gritted his teeth and said:

“These guys lied about their war achievements; I must punish them severely.”

Governor Jiang sneered, "Severe punishment? They were all arrested by Doihara Hamako."

Chen Guo then switched to playing the good guy, smiling and saying, "Inspector Jiang! Everyone knows that since the start of the War of Resistance, Japanese generals have never been so easy to kill."

Governor Chiang nodded and said, "You're right. Over the years, we've lost so many generals, while the Japanese have lost very few. Alas!"

Dai Nong handed the newspaper back to Chen Guo, saying smugly, "If we Military Intelligence Bureau can't kill him, other units certainly can't either. Humph!"

At this moment, Lin Qiao'er arrived at the conference room door with the telegram folder.

Minister He asked, "Xiao Lin! What kind of telegram is it?"

Lin Qiao'er said with a smile, "Good news!"

Minister He waved his hand and said, "Read it!"

Lin Qiao'er read aloud: "New Fourth Army report: At 8:00 AM, they shot down a Japanese plane over Taihu Lake. On board were nine Japanese generals, including the commander of the 11th Division, Nagayoshi Kou..."

The high-ranking officials in the conference room were completely silent, and many of them looked at Dai Nong with a mocking expression.

Dai Nong shook his head and said, "The New Fourth Army doesn't have anti-aircraft guns, so how could they possibly shoot down Japanese planes? Besides, they couldn't possibly know that the Japanese 11th Division commander was on the plane."

I suspect that someone else shot down the plane.

Chen Guo chimed in, "That's right! It couldn't have been shot down by the New Fourth Army."

Zeng Yun laughed and said, "Inspector Jiang! This intelligence is definitely fake."

Governor Chiang nodded and said, "Hmm! This intelligence needs further verification. Staff Officer Lin! Have the New Fourth Army report the detailed course of the battle."

"Yes!"

Lin Qiao'er hurriedly accepted the order.

Zeng Yun thought to himself, "Once Qiao'er finds out the truth, I will immediately report to the sect leader."

At that moment, a staff officer carried several new medals and epaulets into the conference room.

Governor Chiang waved his hand and said, "The Military Intelligence Bureau's commendation is cancelled. Take it back!"

"Yes!"

The staff officer hurriedly accepted the order.

Dai Nong stared at the tray in his hands, his heart bleeding.

He was filled with resentment and couldn't help but say to Ning Caiwei, "Caiwei! Ask Chu Xi for me if Tufeiyuan Xian'er is really dead or not."

Ning Caiwei nodded and said, "Alright! Don't be discouraged, Director. With so many doubles for Doihara Hiroko, the assassination squad must have killed one of them."

Dai Nong laughed and said, "That's right! The Doihara Kenji who was in the newspaper today might just be a stand-in. He's really dead."

The high-ranking officials were speechless and let him indulge in his wild ideas.

On the banks of the Lianqi River in the western suburbs of Shanghai.

Xiang Chu's convoy rested here.

Ma Fugui reported: "Chief! Madam Ning called, asking on behalf of the farmer to inquire whether Toihara Hamako is dead."

Xiang Chu instructed, "Tell Madam Ning that Doihara Hiroko is fine in Kaifeng, he's not dead!"

"Yes!"

Ma Fugui hurriedly accepted the order.

Yu Xiaowan smiled and said, "Brother Chu! It seems that Dai Nong was reprimanded by his superiors for exaggerating his military achievements."

Xiang Chu nodded and said, "Yes! He came to me to ask about the situation, so it seems he was reprimanded quite severely."

At this moment, Qian Fu received a telegram and reported: "Chief! Madam Wang, along with her two sons, Nanfeng and Yuxiang, will fly to Nanjing this evening, asking you to go to Nanjing to reunite with her."

Xiang Chu asked in confusion, "Why is Manxue going back to Nanjing?"

Upon hearing that her son was going to Nanjing, Yu Xiaowan hurriedly said:

"Brother Chu! Let's go to Nanjing."

Xiang Chu nodded and said, "Okay! But I have to tell Qingmu Lianhua first."

Yu Xiaowan retorted, "Why are you blaming that Japanese woman? What if she doesn't let you go to Nanjing? Wouldn't I be unable to see our son?"

Xiang Chu laughed and said, "Don't worry! I'll just say I've already arrived in Nanjing and will return to Shanghai after meeting Manxue."

Yu Xiaowan said happily, "Okay! Send the telegram quickly."

Shanghai Special High Section, Section Chief’s Office.

Fuyuko Yamashita reported: "Madam! At 8:00 AM, the plane carrying nine high-ranking officers, including Commander-in-Chief Takumi Nagaroda of the 11th Imperial Division, was shot down over Taihu Lake. There were no survivors."

Headquarters orders you to quickly find out which Chinese army unit was responsible.

The flight itinerary is classified; there may have been a leak. The culprit must be thoroughly investigated.

Qingmu Lianhua had received Zeng Yun's call and gave the following instructions:

"Dongzi! Report to headquarters that it was the New Fourth Army of China that did this. Also, call the director of the film department and ask him where he is now."

"Hello!"

Fuyuko Yamashita bowed and accepted the order, then walked out of the room.

Aoki Renka stared at Xiang Chu's photo on her desk and said bitterly:

"Yamashita Chuo! Judging from your itinerary, you might be the real culprit."
