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

Chapter 141 Public Execution

Jinling, Yuhuatai.

This was the second execution location chosen by Zheng Yaoxian.

Initially, Zhuang Yifan wanted to choose Zhongshan Wharf as the execution site because it was a bustling place.

This also meets the requirements put forward by Ye Shaohong.

Ye Shaohong was also very satisfied.

He waved his hand, ready to lead his men into action, but was stopped by Zheng Yaoxian, who had rushed over upon hearing the news.

Zheng Yaoxian also gave Ye Shaohong a severe scolding.

He said he was being ridiculous again.

The execution at Zhongshan Wharf caused quite a stir, and it was frightening. If Ye Shaohong were to actually carry it out, it's easy to imagine that business at Zhongshan Wharf would be affected for a long time to come.

More importantly, it also damages the reputation of the National Bureau of Statistics and Surveys.

Ye Shaohong certainly understood this principle.

He had also considered the consequences.

However, this arrangement was more satisfying, which is why he was tempted and almost took action.

Finally, due to Zheng Yaoxian's firm opposition, the execution location was changed to Yuhuatai.

Actually, Yuhuatai is not bad either.

This is the final resting place of the Father of the Nation. After the War of Resistance against Japan ended, many Japanese devils were executed here.

Among the most notorious were war criminals such as Tani Shoufu, Sakai Long, and Tanaka Gunji. They were all war criminals involved in the Nanjing Massacre.

But that was in 1946; it's only 1937 now.

Although it was a bit early, Ye Shaohong thought it was a good idea to let these twenty-odd Japanese devils go underground to scout ahead first, so he finally agreed.

After the execution location was decided, personnel from the Military Section of the Second Division of the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics began to search and move around.

Someone contacted the police station and the city gate guard regiment, asking them to post notices on key streets and at city gates to inform the general public.

Others are busy compiling a list of these people's crimes.

no way.

This execution must conceal the true identities of these Japanese spies, and their crimes must not be publicized.

They also needed to incite hatred among the general public. This meant the crime had to be fabricated, and fortunately, this wasn't a difficult task for the spies.

A dozen or so veteran spies gathered together and discussed the matter for a while. They easily prepared suitable charges for the Japanese spies who were about to be executed, based on their previous hidden identities.

Ye Shaohong was curious, so he went over to take a look.

Then his lips twitched involuntarily.

It must be said that these veteran spies were quite adept at dealing with people, though they were a bit ruthless in their methods.

Look at the charges they made against those Japanese spies. Murder and arson were normal occurrences, and breaking and picking locks was child's play.

What's truly outrageous is that some people actually force innocent women into prostitution.

Cough cough...

The "prostitute" here doesn't refer to a woman. If it did, it would be perfectly normal, and Ye Shaohong wouldn't be surprised.

That's right, they were men. Even those guys with festering sores on their feet and boils on their heads sent people to the brothels along the Qinhuai River to find a few handsome young men.

Let them play the role of the victimized victim.

That's bad enough, but there was also a Japanese spy who looked fierce and ruthless, who was actually arranged by an old agent to commit bestiality.

The target is a donkey.

Ye Shaohong was completely dumbfounded. He wondered if he had transmigrated into the Bai Xiang family, otherwise how could such a thing have happened?

If Ye Shaohong was like this, one can imagine what Zheng Yaoxian, Zhao Jianzhi, and Song Xiaoan were like.

Finally, Zheng Yaoxian kicked the old spy who fabricated the crime several times, saying that even if such a thing were publicized, probably few people would believe it.

In fact, Ye Shaohong was trustworthy.

It's just that Zheng Yaoxian and his colleagues in this era had very limited access to information and lacked the necessary knowledge and experience, which is why they found such a thing so bizarre. Seeing the old special agent who had been kicked a few times and still looked aggrieved, Ye Shaohong couldn't bear it and could only secretly give him a few silver dollars when no one was around, as a way of slightly soothing his wounded little heart.

As for this charge, Ye Shaohong secretly kept it to himself in the end.

In any case, Zheng Yaoxian will not personally participate in the execution.

Once the news spread and the matter was settled, let's just treat it as a source of amusement for the people of Jinling during their leisure time.

Most importantly, it can disgust those Japanese devils.

An execution operation, due to these minor mishaps, almost turned into a fun-filled gathering for the military department.

Everyone is excited.

Not right either.

One person stood in the crowd, still looking bewildered. This person was Xiao Zhengguo. After two days of recovery, he was able to get out of bed with the help of crutches. Today, he couldn't wait to report to Ye Shaohong's office, wanting to take over the position of squad leader of the third team.

Ye Shaohong thought it was good that he had come.

They were just worried about not finding a suitable person to play themselves. Xiao Zhengguo was a bit simple-minded, similar to Zhao Jianzhi.

But he's quite handsome.

It was barely enough to replace Ye Shaohong's identity.

And so, Xiao Zhengguo was once again thrust into the spotlight. He looked around at the excited military field staff and then at himself.

It looks like a huge, swollen mass.

But he couldn't refuse this mission, as it was his first mission since joining the military department.

It was his immediate superior, Ye Shaohong, the only officer who had personally visited him when he was shot, who gave the order. Xiao Zhengguo thought about it and had no choice but to accept it.

After another hour of this, the field clerk who had gone out to spread the news returned and informed Zheng Yaoxian and Ye Shaohong that they had already spread the message.

Now, half of the people in Nanjing have heard the news that the Second Division of the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics is planning to execute criminals at Yuhuatai tonight.

When they returned, many people had already heard the news and were preparing to leave the city.

With everything ready, more than twenty light and heavy vehicles that had been prepared in advance slowly drove out of Villa No. 1, Honggongci.

In front of and behind these vehicles, there were four three-wheeled motorcycles with light machine guns mounted on them.

As soon as their convoy left the area of ​​Hong Gong Temple, it was immediately spotted by the people of Jinling City. Coupled with the already spreading news, everyone quickly learned the purpose of Ye Shaohong and his group. Some followed them all the way, while others shouted loudly.

The car quickly exited Zhonghua Gate and, after driving for a while, arrived at a hill near Yuhuatai.

The execution site had been prepared by field team members who had set up early, and there were also police officers in black leather uniforms maintaining order. As far as the eye could see, there was a huge crowd.

After the end of the Qing Dynasty, public executions of criminals became increasingly rare.

That's why so many people came to watch the spectacle.

Today, Ye Shaohong had also changed out of his signature captain's uniform, with only the rank of second lieutenant hanging on his shoulders. He quietly followed behind the vengeful Xiao Zhengguo and slowly walked to the front of the podium.

A smile played on his lips as he looked at the row of Japanese spies kneeling on the ground in front of him, their mouths stuffed with strips of cloth. A cold glint seemed to flash in his eyes.

Then he raised his head and looked at the crowd.

Among the crowd, Ye Shaohong quickly spotted Song Xiaoan, Zhao Jianzhi, Li Yunlong, and Zhuang Yifan.

They were all concealing firearms and were blending into the crowd with their men.

It's time to take action!
