Espionage: I became sworn brothers with Zheng Yaoxian at the beginning, and became the Seventh Broth

Chapter 1078 Action

Are these three people, carefully selected by Ye Shaohong, really going to carry out a top-secret mission?

Actually not.

They were merely pawns chosen by Ye Shaohong.

The current situation at Taihu Lake is tense, with a storm brewing and unpredictable clouds pressing down on the sky, all due to the battle of wits between Aoki Shigeichi and Ye Shaohong.

Huge changes can happen anytime, anywhere.

Although Ye Shaohong had made advance arrangements and was very confident in his plans, this was, after all, Japanese-occupied territory, and he could not completely ignore it.

We must not be negligent or complacent.

Ye Shaohong must remain vigilant at all times to deal with any unexpected changes that may occur.

But at the level of Ye Shaohong and Aoki Shigeichi, there is no point in concealing one's talents and hiding one's abilities.

That's a sign of weak Qi.

Even if they have reservations, they will still take action and make plans.

While setting up a plan to confuse the enemy, they quietly achieved their own goals.

Therefore, Ye Shaohong gave the three men an order.

They were to carry out a secret mission at noon tomorrow against Wang Tianfeng, the former head of the Military Intelligence Bureau's Training Department, who had already defected to the Japanese secret service.

That is, assassination in the street.

When Ye Shaohong gave the order, he did not tell the three that Wang Tianfeng's surrender was fake.

He also instructed Chi Tiecheng to prepare excellent weapons for the three of them and to arrange an escape route.

The sole purpose was to use this assassination attempt to inform Aoki Shigeichi, who was in Taihu Lake, that Ye Shaohong was still alive.

They are preparing to take action.

Ye Shaohong wanted to use this swift and ruthless approach to tell Aoki Shigeichi, "I didn't know you were here."

I'm going to stir up trouble in the Taihu Lake region.

After assigning this task, Ye Shaohong went out again to meet Li Yunfei.

The four of them came to Taihu Lake together.

However, after arriving at Taihu Lake, Ye Shaohong arranged for Li Yunfei to leave, and it wasn't until this evening that their agreed meeting time arrived.

When the two met again, Li Yunfei first grinned at Ye Shaohong.

Subsequently.

Li Yunfei reached into his robes, took out a wax pill, and handed it to Ye Shaohong.

Ye Shaohong opened the wax capsule, took out the note inside, read it, and nodded in satisfaction.

"very good."

"Yunfei, we'll have to trouble you these next few days to guard our retreat route."

"Once the plan is successfully implemented, we will leave this place immediately."

Li Yunfei nodded in agreement.

Then, he silently disappeared back into the night.

It was as if they had never existed.

The next evening.

A gunshot suddenly rang out on a bustling street in the Taihu area. Three members of the Military Intelligence Bureau launched an assassination attempt on Wang Tianfeng right there in the street. Wang Tianfeng was lucky.

Faced with a sudden attack by desperate agents of the Military Intelligence Bureau, he narrowly escaped the incoming bullets at the most dangerous moment.

His life was saved.

Of the three agents who risked their lives to assassinate him, only two managed to escape in their final desperate attempt.

The remaining person was seriously injured and arrested.

After his arrest, he was immediately taken away by Aoki Shigeichi's men. After rigorous interrogation, he ultimately could not withstand the cruel torture and surrendered, betraying his country.

From this man, Aoki Shigeichi learned that the order to assassinate Wang Tianfeng in the street was personally given by Ye Shaohong.

There is only one reason.

Ye Shaohong suspected that the three of them, like the long-dead Niu Ben, were traitors and collaborators.

Aoki Shigeichi didn't believe this explanation. He felt that if Ye Shaohong truly harbored suspicions about them, he wouldn't have taken them with him when the Military Intelligence Bureau's Taihu Station went silent and moved overnight.

Just like those former members of the Military Intelligence Bureau's Taihu Station who had long been abandoned by Ye Shaohong.

They were left exposed to the light of day, arrested and apprehended.

If Ye Shaohong didn't suspect them of treason, why would he abandon the three of them and assign them such a deadly mission?

To declare one's existence?

To cover up other actions?

Or was Ye Shaohong testing the waters...?

But what was he testing?

Aoki Shigeichi struggled to make a decision for a moment, but in the end he called Wang Tianfeng over.

He voiced the question that had been lingering in his mind.

Wang Tianfeng gave only one answer. Ye Shaohong was a man of deep thoughts; his arrangements and plans were definitely not as simple as they appeared on the surface.

Killing him was just the surface act; there must have been other deeper meanings behind it.

Wang Tianfeng suspected that Ye Shaohong's real purpose was to take advantage of the chaos and find another loophole to blow up the Japanese arsenal in the Taihu Lake area.

To complete the plans he had not yet finished.

Support the front lines.

Aoki Shigeichi agreed with Wang Tianfeng's guess. He talked with Wang Tianfeng for a while before letting the injured and disheveled Wang Tianfeng leave.

Send Wang Tianfeng to the hospital to have his wound bandaged, stop the bleeding, and relieve the pain.

Um…….

It's just ruthless.

Wang Tianfeng had no complaints about this. After leaving the Mei Mansion, he went to the hospital with the secretary, driver, and bodyguard that Aoki Shigeichi had arranged for him.

Find a doctor and get bandaged and treated.

During the treatment, Wang Tianfeng took off his coat and showed all the injuries he had suffered from torture during this period.

It was recorded in the hospital's patient file.

Finally, the hospital doctors issued a diagnosis certificate for Wang Tianfeng and approved the medication.

These were all minor matters, so the secretary, driver, and bodyguard who accompanied Wang Tianfeng to the hospital didn't take them to heart.

But no one knew that shortly after Wang Tianfeng left, the hospital compiled and summarized the details of Wang Tianfeng's injuries and treatment process, and sent them to Ye Shaohong.

Only after seeing this last crucial piece of information did Ye Shaohong finally feel completely relieved.

He knew that the final loophole in the plan had finally been prepared without anyone noticing.

Next, the curtain rises.

Early the next morning, Ye Shaohong ordered the deputy station chief of the former Military Intelligence Bureau's Taihu Station to lead a team out of the city to arrange the newly arrived action teams of the Loyal and Patriotic Army at safe outposts outside the city.

Then, he had Chi Tiecheng take Su Wenqian out to find the best sniping location.

With everything prepared, on the third night, under the personal leadership of the former deputy station chief of the Military Intelligence Bureau's Taihu Station and with the strong firepower of the Loyal and Patriotic Army support team, they finally broke into the Japanese arsenal in the Taihu area.

At a heavy cost, with most of the personnel involved in the operation lost, the Japanese arsenal in the Taihu Lake area was directly destroyed.

Thousands of guns, hundreds of thousands of bullets, dozens of boxes of grenades, and several small mountain guns were all destroyed in the fire.

Shigeichi Aoki had anticipated that the armory would be bombed.

He was incredibly patient. After learning the news, he didn't show his face or personally take command. Instead, he sent Wang Tianfeng, along with the head of the Special Higher Police Section of the Taihu region, to lead elite military police to the site of the armory explosion to investigate the situation.

Search for suspicious trails.

Meanwhile, Shigeichi Aoki was also mobilizing his skilled personnel from Shanghai, Nanjing, and other areas around Taihu Lake to search for Ye Shaohong's whereabouts.

In Aoki Shigeichi's view, since the Military Intelligence Bureau was taking action tonight, Ye Shaohong would not be able to remain silent.

As long as Ye Shaohong dares to show his face, they will be able to catch him red-handed.

However, the result disappointed Shigeichi Aoki.

He toiled through the night, mobilizing a large number of people, but by dawn, he still hadn't found any trace of Ye Shaohong.

Instead, another piece of bad news arrived.

Wang Tianfeng was assassinated. On his way back to the city from the site of the explosion at the armory outside the city, he was ambushed by assassins from the Military Intelligence Bureau. He was seriously wounded and immediately sent to the hospital.

He has been taken into the operating room and is receiving emergency treatment.

Very dangerous!
