Chapter 476 Unexpected Changes

Xu Enzeng was very fast.

In order to impress the bald-headed chairman and to steal the credit, he mobilized all the personnel of the Party Affairs Investigation Department in Shanghai.

Through various channels, he learned the details of the case in less than three hours.

They obtained the list of casualties from the Japanese Army and Navy Command.

After translating the telegram.

Upon seeing the details inside, Xu Enzeng was stunned and stood there dumbfounded.

"How...how could this be?" No matter how surprised and puzzled Xu Enzeng was, he still had to report this crucial information once he received it.

Arrived at the Chiang Kai-shek's official residence.

Xu Enzeng originally intended to meet the bald-headed chairman directly, but he encountered Dai Yunong at the door of the attendant's room.

Seeing the undisguised anxiety and worry on Dai Yunong's face, Xu Enzeng laughed unkindly.

He stepped forward, ready to make a few sarcastic remarks to Dai Yunong.

But before he could make a move, he was stopped by the military officer in the attendant's office.

"Director Xu."

"The Chairman has ordered that once you arrive, you should immediately accompany Director Dai to see him."

Upon hearing this news, Xu Enzeng's smile instantly froze, while Dai Yunong, standing beside him, gave a cold laugh.

"Hmph!" "You're just a sycophant, trying to stab me in the back. Be careful you don't fall into the pit yourself."

Because of the military officer from the attendant's office beside him, Xu Enzeng dared not show his anger openly, even though he was furious. He could only glare at Dai Yunong hatefully.

Then they followed the military officer to the door of the Chairman's office.

Knocked on the door.

To Xu En's surprise, this time it wasn't the Chairman's personal attendant who opened the door.

Instead, it was Li Zongren, who enjoyed a great reputation in the Nationalist government.

"Minister Li!"

"Hmm, it's the two of you?"

"come in."

As the direct controller of the Guangxi clique's wolf soldiers, Li Zongren was one of the top five most powerful figures in the Nationalist government, and at this time he also held the official position of Minister of National Defense.

He is also of a very high generation.

He was able to approach Xu Enzeng and Dai Yunong with the attitude of someone in a superior position.

Xu and Dai did not dare to be presumptuous in front of Li Zongren. After saluting, they followed behind Li Zongren and entered the Chairman's office together.

"Enzeng, you've arrived?"

"Has the news from Shanghai been confirmed? How much damage did the Japanese suffer in this explosion at the Japanese concession's army and navy headquarters?"

Ultimately, this is what the bald-headed chairman cares about most.

He didn't exchange pleasantries with Xu and Dai.

The first thing they said upon meeting was to inquire about the specific details of the explosion at the Shanghai Army Command headquarters.

"Chairman, we've already found out."

"This is classified information that the Party Affairs Investigation Section's undercover team in Shanghai just obtained from within the enemy's ranks."

Please check it.

Xu Enzeng, with a respectful expression, stepped forward and handed the document in his hand to the bald-headed chairman.

The bald-headed chairman didn't hesitate; after nodding, he immediately opened the document in his hand.

His eyes swept over it, and his eyebrows immediately twitched.

"How...how is this possible?"

"We planned such a large operation, and this is all we've gained?"

Before he could finish speaking, the folder that the bald-headed chairman was holding had already fallen onto the table.

"What happened?"

"Chairman, say something!"

Li Zongren held a special position. Within the National Government, although he and the bald-headed Chairman were in a superior-subordinate relationship, upon closer examination, it would be more accurate to describe them as collaborators.

Faced with this situation, Dai Yunong was puzzled but dared not ask for details.

But Li Zongren dared to.

He took a step forward and went straight to the bald chairman's desk, asking the question that had been bothering him.

"Hey."

"It's all about timing and fate; Heaven is unjust."

"Zong Ren, you should see for yourself."

The Chairman shook his head, picked up the telegram manuscript from the table again, and handed it to Li Zongren. He then plopped down in his chair.

He sighed sadly and shook his head several times.

Li Zongren was puzzled.

First, he subtly glanced at the bald-headed chairman without leaving a trace, then lowered his head to look at the folder in his hand. Two or three minutes later.

Li Zongren put down the folder he was holding and shook his head with a sigh.

"Time is destiny!"

"Who could have imagined that something like this would happen?"

The unusual behavior of the bald-headed chairman and Li Zongren only added to Dai Yunong's confusion.

What happened?

This is clearly a monumental achievement, so why are the bald-headed Chairman and Li Zongren behaving this way?

Could something really have gone wrong?

Or was there some error in the information Ye Shaohong sent, and he was deceived?

Puzzled, Dai Yunong turned to look at Xu Enzeng.

Xu En was a true villain. Sensing Dai Yunong's puzzled gaze, he smiled coldly, a hint of mockery subtly creeping onto his lips.

Seeing this, Dai Yunong wished he could immediately step forward and slap him twice across the face.

"Yu Nong, you came here so early in the morning, but you still haven't learned the details of the bombing of the Japanese army and navy in Shanghai, have you?"

"See for yourself."

Dai Yunong's hesitation did not escape the notice of the bald-headed chairman, who sighed softly and finally spoke.

"for you."

"Regardless of the outcome this time, the operation planned by your intelligence agency was still meaningful."

"The results, however, are not as good as we imagined."

When Li Zongren handed the folder to Dai Yunong, a look of disappointment was clearly visible on his face. "Okay."

"Let me consider."

Dai Yunong took the folder and eagerly opened it.

After a quick look, Dai Yunong's eyes widened immediately, and an expression of disbelief appeared on his face.

"Last night, a special envoy from Japan arrived in Shanghai. High-ranking officials from the Army and Navy Commands held a welcome reception for him, but most of the attendees were not at the Army and Navy Commands headquarters?"

"How...how could this be?"

"oops."

"Shao Hong, Shao Hong, why didn't you gather more information beforehand?"

"A perfectly good operation was ruined by this sudden change, and a golden opportunity was lost."

"Oh dear, that hurts."

Indeed. Dai Yunong was truly heartbroken.

The pain was so intense that he felt a tearing sensation in his heart, liver, spleen, kidneys, and lungs.

What was clearly a monumental achievement ended abruptly and hastily due to this sudden turn of events.

It also indirectly alerted the snake.

Dai Yunong really didn't know how to comment on this incident.

"Don't blame him."

"The arrival of the Japanese envoy who licks the grasshoppers in Shanghai was classified information, and it would be difficult to find out in a short period of time."

"Their plan was also very risky. In order to support the front-line resistance, once all preparations were complete, it was only natural to launch a bombing attack on the same day."

"It's just a pity that we missed this opportunity; it will be hard to find another one like it in the future."
