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

Chapter 288 Promoted to Deputy Station Master

The return journey was quick.

Before noon, Ye Shaohong, Yu Manli, Zhuang Yifan and the others arrived in Hanyang County.

After the process, Ye Shaohong had no time to appreciate the city scenery. He and his group went directly to the Hanyang County Police Station.

After meeting the fat, big-eared police chief, Ye Shaohong directly stated his demands.

He dispersed the personnel in the communications room and immediately contacted the Nanjing Special Service Headquarters.

Faced with this request, the police chief of Hanyang County dared not object or utter a word, and immediately made the corresponding arrangements by phone. Then Ye Shaohong took Yu Manli and Zhuang Yifan to the telecommunications office.

Zhuang Yifan was left outside to guard the area with a gun, while Ye Shaohong took out his personal codebook, compiled the telegram, and used the radio to truthfully transmit the truth about Sun Yihui's death.

The telegram was very long and took more than ten minutes to send.

Then Ye Shaohong waited.

About half an hour later, the telegraph machine beeped with a reply. Ye Shaohong immediately picked up his earpiece and began transcribing the telegram.

When he received the telegram and translated it using his codebook, Ye Shaohong's expression changed.

The situation was beyond his expectations.

wrong.

In most cases, things went as Ye Shaohong expected. However, at the very end, an order that arrived briefly caused him to pause in surprise. So what did this telegram say?

First, immediately arrange for personnel to eliminate the Sun and Wei families. The Chairman and Ye Shaohong share the same idea: never be lenient towards those who defect to the enemy and betray the country.

Second, Ye Shaohong was ordered to continue investigating the hidden Japanese spies and traitors within the newly formed Seventh Army. Now that their clues and traces had been discovered, no hidden dangers could be left.

Third, Ye Shaohong was informed that Fei Zhengpeng, the former deputy station chief of the Jiangcheng Station of the Special Service Department, had been promoted for his merits and had been removed from his position as deputy station chief of the Jiangcheng Station a few days ago and transferred back to the Nanjing headquarters.

Fourth, the Chairman personally issued an order appointing Ye Shaohong, the former head of the First Group of the Military Section of the Second Division, to take over as the deputy station chief of the Special Service Department stationed in Jiangcheng. Upon receiving the telegram, he was to take up his post immediately.

Ye Shaohong had anticipated the first three of these four messages.

I wasn't surprised at all.

The telegram he submitted this time already contained foreshadowing, and given the Director's intelligence, he certainly wouldn't refuse him.

This last point, however, left Ye Shaohong quite puzzled.

Appointing him immediately as the deputy station chief of the Jiangcheng station of the Special Service Department is, in terms of position, definitely a promotion.

After all, Jiangcheng Station was a Class B battle for the Special Service.

Although it cannot compare to major stations like the Suzhou-Shanghai Station, North China Station, and Southwest Station, which can supervise several surrounding provinces with the power of a single station.

But we shouldn't underestimate it.

Jiangcheng has been known as a thoroughfare connecting nine provinces since ancient times. Before the merger of Ning and Han, it was the capital of Wang Jingwei's regime.

After the outbreak of the War of Resistance against Japan, the Nationalist government moved its capital for the first time, also choosing Jiangcheng as the location.

The subsequent battles at Jiangcheng dealt a heavy blow to the Japanese invasion, with the city itself defending the last stronghold of the mountain city. The importance of the Jiangcheng battles is beyond question.

After he took over as deputy stationmaster of Jiangcheng Station, the military rank of colonel that had been hindering his advancement would become a smooth path.

Ye Shaohong was certain that it wouldn't be long before he would be promoted to the rank of colonel-level officer.

The appointment order issued by the Chairman this time is tantamount to fulfilling his previous promise to Ye Shaohong.

He was promoted to the rank of deputy section chief at headquarters in one fell swoop.

Ye Shaohong couldn't understand why the Chairman would suddenly issue this order.

Is he planning something new, or is there another reason?

Was Xu Baichuan or Zheng Yaoxian involved in this incident?

It's really possible.

This time, his expulsion from Jinling City was part of Zheng Yaoxian's scheme. With Ye Shaohong's departure, Zheng Yaoxian had secretly taken control of two drug smuggling channels in Jinling City.

With these two drug smuggling channels, Zheng Yaoxian could help the Red Party do many things.

Ye Shaohong understood the trickery involved, so he didn't point it out directly.

He originally thought that once he solved the case of Sun Yihui's mysterious death, he could return to Jinling. Now it seems that he no longer has that chance.

"My foundation is still too shallow."

"Being away from home, I couldn't even know what was happening in Nanjing immediately."

After letting out a soft sigh, Ye Shaohong finally stood up.

He no longer wants to consider who was involved in this matter.

In Ye Shaohong's view, it was pointless now. He had already reaped the benefits anyway.

He was promoted to the rank of colonel without any loss to himself. Even if Zheng Yaoxian was behind his transfer order and had his own schemes, Ye Shaohong would not say anything.

Their relationship as both teacher and friend will remain unchanged.

not to mention.

This relocation won't last long. It's already early July, and in a few days, a horrific event will break out in North China.

A few months later, the Second Battle of Shanghai would begin.

After Chiang Kai-shek issues the order for a nationwide war of resistance, Dai Yunong will certainly reorganize the Songhu Special Forces in order to expand his power.

This led to the formation of the Qingpu Special Training Class, which later became famous online.

Dai Yunong would certainly draw personnel from various stations of the Special Service Department, so perhaps he would still have a chance to return to Nanjing. Even if he missed this opportunity, he would still be able to see Dai Yunong, Xu Baichuan, and Zheng Yaoxian when the Nationalist government moved its capital to Jiangcheng in the winter of 1937.

Ye Shaohong could accept the separation of just a few months.

"That's fine!"

"Then let me first clean up the Japanese spy network in Jiangcheng."

Holding the telegram, Ye Shaohong led Yu Manli out of the communications room. Upon seeing the fat-headed, big-eared police chief of Hanyang County again, Ye Shaohong immediately relayed the Chairman's order to him.

He then issued his first order to the fat-headed, big-eared police chief of Hanyang County in his capacity as deputy station chief of the Special Service Department's Jiangcheng Station.

He was instructed to mobilize personnel from the Hanyang County Police Bureau to immediately bring the Japanese spies he had just arrested out of prison, and to take them to Jiangcheng at once.

The fat, big-eared police chief of Hanyang County was already wary of Ye Shaohong's identity.

Now that they've heard that Ye Shaohong has taken over as deputy stationmaster of Jiangcheng Station, they're showering him with flattery, and naturally, they dare not refuse.

He immediately arranged for people to escort all the Japanese spies out of the prison.

Then they called Captain Zhu over.

Captain Zhu was tasked with leading the team and escorting Ye Shaohong and his group to Jiangcheng.

During this time, Li Yunlong also rushed over upon hearing the news. When he heard Ye Shaohong say that he had been transferred to Jiangcheng and promoted to deputy station chief, Li Yunlong immediately clenched his fists.

He immediately congratulated Ye Shaohong.

Ye Shaohong waved his hand; he really didn't care about such things. Then he sternly told Li Yunlong to keep a close eye on the Japanese spies along the way.

These captured Japanese spies were the foundation upon which they established their foothold in Jiangcheng. Li Yunlong certainly understood this.

Respond immediately.

After a busy period, Ye Shaohong and his group, who had just arrived in Hanyang County, resumed their journey and drove straight to Jiangcheng...
