Chapter 685 The Interests of the Big Shots

Inside the Special Service Headquarters in Nanjing, Dai Yunong was so excited that he didn't sleep all night.

Because of the huge gains from this operation, the chain reaction was enormous, so Dai Yunong also summoned the heads of other departments.

We stayed up all night, none of us slept.

Whenever a new message came from the Jiangcheng Station of the Special Service, Dai Yunong would receive it immediately.

Issue new orders immediately.

As dawn broke the next day and the eastern sky began to lighten, Dai Yunong finally obtained the preliminary summary information.

He also learned the specific details of the operation from the telegram.

"I really didn't expect that."

"It turns out that the Great Western King's treasure was just a hoax."

"It was Ye Shaohong who took advantage of the situation, deceived everyone, and devised a scam specifically for the Japanese devils."

"But I..."

"Hey!"

Dai Yunong smiled bitterly. At this moment, he was filled with mixed feelings. He was excited and restless about capturing so many Japanese spies, but also felt regret and helplessness at having fallen into a trap himself.

But relatively speaking, he was actually quite happy.

Although he was also deceived by Ye Shaohong, his gains were considerable. Ye Shaohong had successfully dismantled five Japanese spy infiltration groups in Jiangcheng, arresting twenty-seven Japanese spies, seizing five radios, and four codebooks. If this news were reported to the bald-headed Chairman, it would definitely boost his prestige. He would also undoubtedly receive commendations from the bald-headed Chairman and the Ministry of National Defense.

"Humph!"

"Let's see if Xu Enzeng is still so smug this time."

"He better not show up at the Chairman's residence today. If he dares to, I'll give him a piece of my mind and slap him in the face in front of the Chairman!"

The feud between the Special Service Department and the Party Affairs Investigation Department has a long history. Although Dai Yunong is exceptionally capable, far exceeding ordinary people, in just a few years, he has developed the newly established Special Service Department from a little over a hundred people to more than three thousand people.

But he was still very frustrated.

Who could blame them when the Nationalist government had a Party Affairs Investigation Department?

That was the intelligence department established by Chen Guofu and Chen Lifu, the two Chens, under the leadership of the CC Clique. Xu En had been suppressing him both openly and covertly, relying on the immense power of the two Chens and the CC Clique.

Because of internal strife and the targeting by the Chen brothers and the CC Clique, Dai Yunong and his secret service have been unable to obtain sufficient operating funds from the Nationalist government's financial department.

This severely restricted Dai Yunong's actions.

Recently, he has also been secretly plotting to make the Secret Service independent again.

Incidentally, he also wanted to obtain independent funding authority from the Nationalist government's finance department.

Originally, he was almost able to persuade the bald-headed Chairman because of the outbreak of war between China and Japan, but who would have thought that Xu Enzeng would be so unscrupulous and secretly report the matter to the Chen brothers.

Seeing that the Special Service Department was becoming increasingly powerful and difficult to control, and that the bald-headed Chairman was showing signs of relenting, the two brothers, Chen Guofu and Chen Lifu, shamelessly went to their uncle, the future traitor Wang, in order to prevent Dai Yunong and the Special Service Department from separating from their Investigation and Statistics Bureau.

Who is this Mr. Wang?

That's the current number two in the Nationalist government, the Premier of the State Council. He's also the Vice President of the Kuomintang.

In terms of power alone, within the current Nationalist government, Wang Jingwei is only slightly less powerful than Chiang Kai-shek, simply because he lacks sufficient military control.

Most of his power is concentrated in the government sector.

But that's enough.

Persuaded by Chen and Chen, Wang intervened and stopped the bald-headed chairman again at the last moment.

This shattered Dai Yunong's idea of ​​separating the Special Service Department from the rest of the country.

But things are different now.

The generous gift Ye Shaohong presented to Dai Yunong at Jiangcheng Station gave Dai Yunong enough confidence to go and find the bald-headed chairman again, attempting to make the Special Service Department an independent bureau.

"What an opportunity!"

"This time, I'm determined to achieve my goal!"

"Qi Wu, prepare the car immediately! I need to leave for the Chairman's residence right away to meet him in person!"

Holding the newly prepared operation information in his hand, Dai Yunong, despite his exhaustion from not having slept all night, strode out with renewed vigor.

Behind him, Mao Renfeng, the short, stout, and chubby confidential secretary of the Special Service Department, also looked proud and followed closely.

……

The President's Residence.

When the vehicle carrying Dai Yunong and Mao Renfeng slowly drove into the mansion compound, the staff room of the Chairman's mansion had already received the information in advance.

Things are different now.

In the past, when Dai Yunong came to the mansion of the bald-headed chairman, no one would greet him.

But today, in the entourage room of the Chairman's residence, two of the old men who could wield considerable influence within the Nationalist government specially came out to personally lead Dai Yunong inside. "Yunong, this time, your Special Service has really made a name for itself."

"The Chairman was overjoyed when he heard the news."

"He's waiting for you in the back garden. I heard that the Chairman even brewed some Da Hong Pao tea, just in time to welcome you!"

The one who spoke was Chiang Kai-shek's absolute confidant, the head of the Jiang-Zhe financial clique.

He is also the bald-headed chairman, who was able to go from being a military academy principal to becoming the financial supporter of the nominal highest power in China. His personal appearance today to welcome Dai Yunong made Dai Yunong feel extremely honored.

"You flatter me, Elder Rong!"

"All of this is Yu Nong's duty, and to be honest, it's also thanks to us Jiangzhe people!"

Dai Yunong was quite shrewd; he was clever enough to realize that these bigwigs in the attendants' quarters wouldn't show up, so he quickly figured out Ye Shaohong's identity: a scion of the Ye family, a powerful financial clan in Jiangsu and Zhejiang.

No wonder this big shot was alarmed today.

Therefore, Dai Yunong quickly pulled Ye Shaohong to stand up for him, hoping to use this opportunity to get closer to Elder Rong.

"Ha ha!"

"That's right, there are many outstanding people from Jiangsu and Zhejiang!"

"Yu Nong, you didn't disappoint me. Shao Hong has also made us proud."

The two chatted and laughed, and soon arrived at the back garden, where they saw the supreme commander of the National Government, the Chairman with his gleaming and distinctive insignia.

"Ha ha!"

"Yu Nong, you've arrived."

"Quickly, tell me about the big operation your Special Service Station Jiangcheng Station carried out last night."

"We have cracked five Japanese spy groups, captured 27 hidden Japanese spies, and seized five radios and four codebooks. This is one of the few good news I have heard in the past few days."

Why is the bald-headed chairman so excited today?

the reason is simple.

With the end of the Battle of Shanghai, most of the territory in the Suzhou-Hangzhou Delta region had fallen into the hands of the Japanese devils.

The current Nationalist government is urgently planning to relocate the capital.

Their first target for relocating the capital was Jiangcheng. If the Nationalist government moved its capital to Jiangcheng, it would inevitably become the Nationalist government's short-term political and military center.

The current domestic situation is extremely serious, and coupled with the hasty relocation of the capital, the bald-headed Chairman is also very worried.

He was worried about the battle ahead.

On one hand, there was the worry that after the capital was moved, the various departments of the Nationalist government would arrive in Jiangcheng in a panic, inevitably leaving many loopholes for the Japanese. This would create a favorable environment for the Japanese spies.

This would lead to the loss of confidential intelligence from the Nationalist government.

This would cause many speculators who are worried about the future of the Nationalist government to develop feelings of defection and treason.

But now he doesn't have to worry anymore.

Ye Shaohong's grand scheme, which resulted in the dismantling of five undercover teams, effectively eliminated a potential threat to the bald-headed chairman in advance.

This also enhanced his authority and undermined the confidence of those who had defected to the enemy.

This is truly heartening news during this time of national crisis.

How could the bald-headed Chairman not be overjoyed!
