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

Chapter 738 Unexpected Gain

They say if the higher-ups say one thing, the people below will run themselves ragged!

This is the reality.

The personnel who were preparing to withdraw after tonight's operation ended were ordered to resume their operations under Ye Shaohong's command.

The Special Service Department and the City Defense Command, led by police officers, began conducting inspections in the surrounding streets.

This is a complicated task.

From the start to the end of the operation, it took another two hours.

The results of it?

Ye Shaohong was right. Through a thorough investigation, the Special Service discovered a hidden hideout of a Japanese soldier next to the warehouse.

This hideout even had a tunnel leading directly to the warehouse that had just been raided.

After discovering the hidden hideout, a battle immediately broke out between the two sides.

After the battle, the special operations personnel not only discovered the radio and codebook in the hidden hideout, but also found intelligence that the Japanese had not had time to destroy.

These are all geographical maps of the mountains and rivers surrounding Jiangcheng and Shancheng.

Hand-drawn version.

This discovery immediately made Ye Shaohong, who had not left, frown.

"Strange!"

"These Japanese devils, aren't they mainly responsible for transporting supplies?" "How come there are still these things stored in their hideout?"

From the late Qing Dynasty onwards, the Japanese devils coveted China. After the First Sino-Japanese War, they began to send people to secretly search for and map the mountains and rivers of China under the guise of travel, business, and mineral exploration.

After the outbreak of the Sino-Japanese War, when our side was clearing out the Japanese troops, we were surprised to find that the maps drawn by the Japanese were actually more detailed and comprehensive than our military maps.

This is no secret either.

Their century-long plan has already given them a thorough understanding of all parts of China.

The fact that such detailed maps and maps of the terrain had been collected and stored in a secret hideout puzzled Ye Shaohong.

What were those Japanese devils trying to do?

Ye Shaohong didn't believe they had redrew the map out of boredom. Besides, they wouldn't need such a detailed map for secretly transporting supplies into the mountain city.

There must be something wrong here.

But Ye Shaohong couldn't figure out where the problem lay for a while.

A vague unease in his heart made it difficult for Ye Shaohong to make a decision.

After a while.

He suddenly made a decision and beckoned Li Yunlong over.

"Yunlong".

"Send someone to the Ministry of Military Affairs immediately and ask them for a military map from Shancheng to Jiangcheng!"

"Then carefully examine and compare the military maps with the confiscated map-making manuals."

Let's see if we can find anything!

"I need to be quick. I need the detailed answer when I get to work tomorrow!"

After the Jiangcheng Great Western King's Treasure case, Li Yunlong was seriously injured. Although he has been recuperating for several months, he still looks somewhat thin and tired.

But this did not affect Li Yunlong's morale.

Li Yunlong was unable to personally participate in the major leak of secrets regarding the Xuzhou Campaign a few months ago because he was recuperating in Jiangcheng.

He did not achieve any merit afterwards.

They could only watch helplessly as Chi Tiecheng earned the Order of the Blue Sky and White Sun for his meritorious service in the major case of the leak of secrets during the Battle of Xuzhou by the General Staff.

Now is the time for him to feel envious and jealous.

They couldn't wait to make a name for themselves and, like Chi Tiecheng, earn an iron plaque.

Therefore, Li Yunlong was extremely excited when he heard Ye Shaohong's order. "Seventh Brother!"

"Don't worry, I'll take charge of this personally. I'll definitely give you a satisfactory explanation first thing tomorrow morning!"

Seeing Li Yunlong's appearance, Ye Shaohong's dissatisfaction with Li Yunlong because of the Great Western King's treasure matter dissipated somewhat.

He stepped forward and patted Li Yunlong on the shoulder.

"it is good!"

"I believe you."

"I'm leaving this matter to you. You know my family situation; Manli is pregnant, and I worry about her a lot if I don't see her for a day."

"I won't stay up all night with you guys."

"Please work harder. Once this case is over, I will personally report your achievements to the Chief."

After making a grand promise, Ye Shaohong didn't delay any longer and immediately drove home.

When he got home, Yu Manli was already asleep.

Only his elderly mother was waiting for him in the living room.

Upon seeing Ye Shaohong return, the old mother first complained to him a few times before having someone bring up the food that had been reheated countless times.

After dinner, Ye Shaohong carefully pushed open his bedroom door.

I walked in quietly.

Arriving at the bedside, looking at Yu Manli sleeping peacefully, and at her prominently protruding belly, Ye Shaohong couldn't help but smile for some reason.

He smiled very gently.

Ye Shaohong slowly squatted down and gently wiped Yu Manli's belly. He then gently combed Yu Manli's hair while she was still asleep.

As Yu Manli seemed to sense something and began to murmur softly in her sleep, Ye Shaohong slowly took off his coat and lay down on his side.

He put an arm around Yu Manli.

I fell asleep quickly.

Slept very peacefully.

A dreamless night.

When Ye Shaohong woke up early the next morning, Yu Manli had already gotten up and washed up.

She is applying makeup in front of the mirror.

Hearing Ye Shaohong get up, Yu Manli turned and glanced at him.

"woke up?"

"Go wash up and eat quickly." "Yunlong just called and said there were new discoveries in last night's operation. He asked when you're starting work because he has a major and urgent matter to report to you personally!"

Ye Shaohong was taken aback by Yu Manli's words.

He understood Li Yunlong.

Li Yunlong would never have called his family unless something extremely important had happened.

Moreover, he knew that Yu Manli was pregnant and that he was supposed to stay home to take care of her.

Did his guess last night come true?

The reason why the Japanese soldiers in the warehouse stored the map from Shancheng to Jiangcheng in the secret stronghold was because they had other important plans.

With this matter on his mind, Ye Shaohong quickly got up.

However, he was not in a hurry to leave immediately.

First, he spoke gently and soothingly to Yu Manli. After seeing a smile bloom on Yu Manli's face, Ye Shaohong hurriedly ate breakfast and drove to the headquarters of the Special Service Department in Luojiawan.

Upon arriving at the headquarters of the Special Service Department, Ye Shaohong did not go to his own office.

Instead, he went directly to Li Yunlong's office.

Push the door open and go in.

Ye Shaohong immediately smelled a strong, pungent smell of smoke, as well as a putrid odor from a window that hadn't been opened for a long time.

Without even thinking, Ye Shaohong knew that Li Yunlong must have stayed up all night.

Upon seeing Ye Shaohong enter, Li Yunlong, his eyes red, hurriedly stood up.

"Seventh Brother."

"You're here."

"I've discovered something very important: the Japanese may have already deployed action teams in the towns near Jiangcheng!"

"They're preparing to launch a surprise attack on our defensive positions and command capabilities during the upcoming battle for Jiangcheng!"
