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

Chapter 968 Military Intelligence

These things may seem complicated, but they are actually just a matter of a fleeting moment.

To others, Ye Shaohong put down the radio and immediately picked up the book.

After a quick glance, he put the book down.

He then picked up the bottom layer of paper.

Unfortunately, no clear writing was left on these papers.

But I wasn't disappointed.

After receiving the paper, he immediately got up and walked towards the direction of the main entrance.

Under the scorching sun, Ye Shaohong took out each sheet of paper in his hand and examined them carefully.

Soon, he made a discovery.

"pencil!"

"Quick, get me a pencil!"

Upon hearing Ye Shaohong's shout, Li Yunfei immediately understood.

He immediately looked around and finally found a soldier who was searching the house. Reluctantly, the soldier took out a pencil stub from his pocket.

It was delivered to Li Yunfei.

Li Yunfei snatched the pencil stub, said nothing, and took out a silver dollar from his pocket, then tossed it away.

The soldier immediately beamed with joy.

Then, Li Yunfei handed the pencil stub to Ye Shaohong.

Ye Shaohong took the pencil stub, immediately went back into the house, found a bookshelf, spread out the papers, and carefully began to scribble on them with the pencil stub.

Slowly, a line of numbers appeared.

During this process, Ye Shaohong's breathing gradually became lower and slower.

When all the numbers were clearly displayed, Ye Shaohong raised his hand again.

Li Yunfei then handed the first volume of The Tale of Genji to Ye Shaohong.

He compared the numbers with the corresponding text, searching for the matching words one by one.

But after searching, Ye Shaohong realized something was wrong.

This time, the codebook is not the most primitive and simplest kind of numerical queue.

There should be other encryption methods.

dislocation?

Thinking of this, Ye Shaohong lowered his head again and carefully compared the two.

This comparison took a full five or six minutes. Finally, he discovered a pattern, a not-too-sophisticated encryption method.

The page number is misaligned by three pages, the line number is misaligned by three columns, and the word count is misaligned by three.

After confirming the pattern, Ye Shaohong easily found the corresponding content of the code in the first volume of The Tale of Genji.

It was intelligence regarding troop movements.

It clearly states how long the 11th Division will be stationed and resting in the mountain city this time.

Several days later, they will be transferred to the front line.

There are also marching routes.

To be honest, this intelligence wasn't particularly valuable. Given the size of the 11th Division, it would be very difficult for them to keep it from the enemy if they were to mobilize it.

What makes it so valuable is that this information was communicated several days in advance. With this information, the enemy could make thorough preparations, mobilize their troops, and carry out defenses or obstructions.

Even an ambush.

Upon seeing the contents of the manuscript, Ye Shaohong immediately flew into a rage.

He cursed inwardly, thinking how these damned traitors and collaborators were truly omnipresent.

Now even within the Nationalist government's elite 11th Division, there are traitors infiltrating. If he hadn't obtained this intelligence, and the 11th Division had set off according to plan, its future would have been unpredictable.

With the marching route in place, the Japanese could easily deploy aircraft for targeted bombing.

If the Nationalist government's elite 11th Division suffers heavy casualties, it will cause great damage to the upcoming Battle of Changsha.

"Thank goodness. Thank goodness it was discovered in time!" "There's still a chance to salvage the situation!"

After confirming the information on the first draft paper, Ye Shaohong pulled out a new sheet of paper.

Repeat the original process again, using a pencil stub to trace the information.

This is also the last piece of paper with content.

When the content appeared, Ye Shaohong's expression became even more serious.

He saw something.

He saw it; it was a telegram sent to him by Bayin's superiors.

The telegram instructed him to wake up a deeply hidden spy three days later.

The spy's code name was Hammer.

Intelligence team?

Not like.

If it's an intelligence team, they should have been in contact before.

That's the Deep Infiltrator.

This can only mean one thing: the organization Bayin belongs to has already planted many high-level spies within the Nationalist government.

Many of these high-ranking spies have not yet been awakened.

After figuring this out, another question arose in Ye Shaohong's mind.

Bayin's identity has now been confirmed.

Who killed him?

And who is secretly searching for what Bayin has hidden?

Is this the wake-up command they're looking for?

I don't know.

With so few clues, Ye Shaohong dared not make a decision on his own. It concerned national military intelligence, and even the slightest mistake could affect tens of thousands of people.

It affected wartime conditions on the front lines.

The only thing he can do now is to investigate Bayin's whereabouts in the past few days.

See where he went and who he met.

Have you ever had contact with that undercover agent codenamed Hammer?

correct.

And then there's that woman who mysteriously disappeared.

Could she be Hammer?

We'll have to wait until Xu Zhongyi returns to find out the answer to this question.

Lost in thought, Ye Shaohong didn't notice that Li Yunlong and Chang Botao had come downstairs together sometime earlier.

They had clearly noticed Ye Shaohong's unusual behavior as well.

Chang Botao was about to ask a question, but Li Yunlong, quick-witted and agile, raised his hand to stop him. Only when Ye Shaohong turned around, folded the two drafts in his hand, and carefully put them into his pocket did Li Yunlong take the initiative to come over.

"Seventh Brother."

"Have you finished discussing your business?"

"Ah."

"That's good. Now I'm giving you a task: call headquarters immediately and request support."

"After the support arrived, they immediately began investigating Bayin's whereabouts in the past few days, where he went and who he met."

"Investigate everything thoroughly."

"Yes!"

Li Yunlong responded loudly, immediately turned around and went to the room where the telephone was stored, and started dialing.

The commotion here was quite significant. While Ye Shaohong was searching the contents of the draft paper, the soldiers raiding the house didn't dare to act recklessly.

They were also afraid of disturbing their superiors.

Now that Ye Shaohong has come to his senses, the soldiers have begun to move again.

Ye Shaohong also became increasingly nervous.

Everyone was watching the search operation intently. With several officers closely monitoring them, the soldiers dared not make any rash moves.

They dared not hide the valuables they found during the search.

With everyone's combined efforts, the villa's living room was quickly searched clean.

They really went all out.

This time, the soldiers knocked down the living room floor and even smashed the surrounding walls with tools.

They were determined not to overlook any suspicious locations. Of course, there were some finds, but they were all hidden boxes and compartments containing valuables; no more intelligence related to military secrets was found.

Until... Xu Zhongyi returned!
