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

Chapter 445 A Deal Made with Wang Tianfeng

Feng Zixiong?

Upon hearing Wang Tianfeng mention this name, a memory from the past flooded Ye Shaohong's mind.

That's the plot of the spy drama "Rouge".

Who is Feng Zixiong?

He is the father of Feng Manna, the main female villain in the spy drama "Rouge".

He was also the head of the logistics department of the 119th Division of the Nationalist Army's Jianghuai Group.

He's not a good person.

Besides keeping a shaved head like Chiang Kai-shek, he also secretly funded and built his own intelligence organization.

This organization is deeply entrenched and has a wide reach.

They not only took deep root in the Nationalist government, but also placed their own people in the South Manchuria Railway, which was staffed by the Red Party, Soviet workers, and Japanese.

This shows that he is quite capable.

If he were willing to save the country, he could be considered a powerful figure in the wilderness.

But Feng Zixiong is different.

He was a typical egoist. The intelligence network he secretly planned and built was primarily tasked with collecting intelligence for him and selling it for money.

To put it bluntly, he was an intelligence broker.

An intelligence dealer who has long operated outside the official structure of the Nationalist government.

It's unclear what Feng Zixiong did to provoke Wang Tianfeng so much that he wanted to kill him immediately.

"You want to borrow someone from me?"

"Fifth Brother, you must be joking with me again. You're the head of the intelligence section of the Shanghai station of the Special Service Department."

"With countless talented and capable men under your command, do you still lack people to fight for you?"

After a brief moment of distraction, Ye Shaohong regained his senses and then smiled.

Although he did not directly and openly reject Wang Tianfeng.

But his attitude was also revealed.

"Brother, you overestimate me."

“That’s right, I am the head of the intelligence section of the Shanghai station of the Special Service Department. But what you don’t know is that before I took over the Shanghai station’s intelligence section, it had just suffered a major blow.”

"The core of the intelligence department was almost completely wiped out in that clash with the Japanese." "The only personnel I can mobilize now are my old subordinates who came with me from Nanjing. Although they are all elite talents of the Special Service Department, they are all specialists in their own fields."

"When it comes to assassination and elimination, they really are no good."

Wang Tianfeng was not surprised by Ye Shaohong's evasive attitude.

He picked up the teacup on the table, took a small sip, and then told Ye Shaohong about his current situation.

"Maybe not."

"Fifth Brother, don't try to fool me. I may not know the situation there, but I can see right through you."

"Leaving aside other things, just look at that sniper outside right now, he's quite skilled."

"With him here, why do you need to come looking for me?"

Ye Shaohong genuinely didn't want to have much contact with Wang Tianfeng. It wasn't that he was unwilling to lend a helping hand; Ye Shaohong would never refuse anything that benefited the country and the nation. He simply harbored reservations about Wang Tianfeng.

That old fox, he may be a pure patriot, but his heart is black.

As long as he believes that what he is doing is beneficial to the country and the nation, he will not hesitate for a moment to sacrifice, abandon, or betray anyone.

The suicide mission plan in the TV series "The Disguiser" is clear evidence of this.

In the original drama, Yu Manli also indirectly died at his hands.

As for the promises and vows Wang Tianfeng had just made to him, Ye Shaohong considered them nothing but a load of rubbish.

It's just an excuse to resolve the conflict between them.

If Wang Tianfeng were to learn about the strength of his subordinates, understand the composition of his team, and then find his foothold, would Ye Shaohong still have a good life in the future?

When that time comes, Ye Shaohong will not only have to be constantly vigilant against external enemies, but he will also have to be careful to guard against this old fox.

To avoid being tricked or schemed against by him.

This is the real reason why Ye Shaohong repeatedly declined and was unwilling to agree to Wang Tianfeng's request.

"Seventh Brother's perception is so sharp."

"Yes."

"I did arrange for several people to meet me outside this time to prevent any unforeseen circumstances."

"But their strength is no match for your men."

"Very far apart."

"Putting aside other things, just take the major cases that have been brewing in the concessions of Britain, France, the United States, Japan and Italy these past few days. If we were to entrust them with the execution, they would be unable to carry them out."

Wang Tianfeng's face was as cold as ice, showing no emotion whatsoever, just like a picture on a playing card. But the words he uttered immediately made Ye Shaohong raise an eyebrow.

"Fifth Brother, you didn't drink today either?"

"Why are you starting to talk nonsense?"

Ye Shaohong's eyes were fixed on Wang Tianfeng's face, and the words he spoke already showed signs of gritted teeth.

"Correct."

"I said the wrong thing."

"I was just using an analogy with you."

Wang Tianfeng gave a forced, insincere response, then reached into his pocket, pulled out a few photos, and tossed them in front of Ye Shaohong.

This action was so sudden that it immediately caught Ye Shaohong's attention.

He glanced at Wang Tianfeng, and seeing that he had no intention of speaking, he bent down and picked up a few photos from the table.

Then a faint smile slowly appeared on Ye Shaohong's lips.

"Fifth Brother, this gift of yours is quite substantial."

Have you really thought this through?

"What I'm doing now has been approved by the director, so even if I make a big fuss, the director will cover for me if problems arise."

"But if you actually do that, it's fine if no one notices or finds out, but if someone does notice or finds out, your head..."

Ye Shaohong smiled and pointed to his temple.

The deeper meaning is self-evident.

"You don't need to worry about me." "Since I dared to make this deal with you, even if something goes wrong, it won't involve you."

"Just tell me whether you're willing or not."

Dealing with an old fox like Wang Tianfeng is really exhausting. There are many things they can't say outright, but the underlying meaning still needs to be clearly expressed.

Similarly, one must not leave oneself a source of trouble.

Just like now.

Their conversation may seem ambiguous and incoherent, but in reality, they have clearly expressed what they should and shouldn't have said.

They also made promises to each other.

This forced Ye Shaohong to think things through carefully.

He needs to think this through carefully, and also consider whether doing this will affect his future.

As for who would take action, Ye Shaohong had already decided: Li Yunlong and Xu Tian.

A Northern bandit king and a highly intelligent manipulator of accidental deaths—if the two of them act together, Feng Zixiong will find it very difficult to escape this calamity.

Moreover, he would leave no trace after his death.

So this deal actually has some potential.

"it is good!"

"I agreed."

"However, I have one request: I need to see conclusive evidence by noon tomorrow!"
