Chapter 213 The last straw
It turned out that when he was at Yellow Crane Tower, Gao Jiu heard Li Kunpeng's name and immediately remembered something.
During the Wuhan Battle, the Nationalist Government originally planned to defend Wuhan. Therefore, it can be said that it spent a lot of money on the construction of Wuhan's fortifications, mobilized a large number of engineers, mobilized a large number of migrant workers, and used a large number of war preparation materials. According to statistics,
It was equivalent to a year's fiscal revenue of Guizhou Province at that time. It can be said that a lot of money was spent to build a large number of reinforced concrete national defense projects in Wuhan and surrounding areas, and the entire Wuhan was built like an iron barrel.
However, Wuhan's city defense map was stolen by Japanese spies. When they attacked Wuhan City, the Japanese army chose its weak points, blasted them with artillery fire, opened up a passage, and easily invaded Wuhan City, causing national chaos.
Heavy military casualties.
The leaker was a person named Li Kunpeng. He was a senior engineer at the Ninth Theater District National Defense Engineering Design Bureau at the time. The person who pulled him into the trap was his anti-war wife, and this anti-war wife was a Japanese female spy.
.
This Japanese female spy is Mitsui Sakurako, the apprentice of the famous Japanese female spy Nagumo Zuko.
This case was not solved at the time. It was not until the second half of 1941 that because Li Kunpeng had lost his use value, Mitsui Sakurako went to seduce another national government official. Because of a small mistake, he was caught by the military commander.
These are all recorded in the files revealed by the military commander, and there are photos of her in them.
After inspecting the site of the Ninth Theater Headquarters Office Building, Gao Jiu did not think about this because he was also misled by the Japanese female spy. At that time, the Japanese female spy appeared outside the window of the Office of the Chief of Operations, so
, Gao Jiu also thought that the target of the Japanese female spy was information on the combat plan formulated for the Ninth War Zone, but there was no relevant record in Gao Jiu's information.
He did not think about national defense engineering at that time, so he could not find a breakthrough in this case.
When he met Li Kunpeng by chance at the Yellow Crane Tower, he heard that he was a senior engineer at the National Defense Engineering Design Bureau of the Ninth Theater Command. He then remembered that when he was surveying the site, the security staff officer from the Security Department of the Ninth Theater Command gave him
When he introduced the schematic diagram of the organizations surrounding the Chief of Operations, there was the Defense Engineering Design Bureau on the floor above the Office of the Chief of Operations.
Thinking of this, he agreed to Zhang Keming and Li Kunpeng's request for a treat.
At the dining table of the Hilton Hotel, Gao Jiu asked for a photo of Li Kunpeng’s anti-war wife and compared it with the photo in the military’s secret archives. Although the photo in the archive was old, yellowed, and the picture was not clear enough, the two
The general appearance of people is basically similar.
Since Gao Jiu agreed to Zhou Mingshan's help, and as it is a basic obligation of a Chinese to eliminate Japanese spies, Gao Jiu planned to help Zhou Mingshan and eliminate this Japanese female spy, which would be a small contribution to Wuhan's war of resistance.
Although the Wuhan city defense map that can be preserved may not necessarily be able to preserve Wuhan, if the Japanese want to invade Wuhan, at least they will lose the lives of thousands of eight hundred soldiers.
After returning to the Lin family, Gao Jiu was about to go find Zhou Mingshan when a call came from Zhou Mingshan. He invited Gao Jiu to go to the guest house.
Today is the sixth day that Wang Xilin, deputy director of the Military Counterintelligence Department, accepted the deadline to solve the Japanese spy case. Although Zhou Mingshan provided him with the information that the person who intended to steal the information of the Ninth Theater was a Japanese female spy, Wang Xilin still did not
What kind of clue? Until now, he was at a loss.
Originally, Wang Xilin didn't have much hope for Zhou Mingshan. He just sought medical treatment because he was under too much pressure and was in a hurry. Seeing that tomorrow was the deadline, Wang Xilin felt that there was nothing he could do.
This morning, as soon as Wang Xilin arrived at the military headquarters, the big boss called him over and asked him about his progress. Wang Xilin told the truth that no progress had been made so far, and he asked the big boss to give him a few more days.
The big boss said that if it was an internal matter within the military command, he could be given grace time, but the Supreme Military Council would not give him, the big boss, grace time. Wang Xilin could not give him a clear answer, and he could not make a clear promise to the Central Military Commission.
The big boss of the military command is very strict. If Wang Xilin cannot solve this espionage case on time, his future will definitely be over, and he may even be imprisoned.
Seeing that he was desperate, Wang Xilin thought of Zhou Mingshan. After all, Zhou Mingshan had provided him with such a clue as a Japanese female spy. Now Zhou Mingshan became his last life-saving straw.
So he came to Zhou Mingshan, hoping to get some inspiration from him and give himself a last chance to fight.
Zhou Mingshan has not seen Gao Jiu again since he went to investigate the scene with Gao Jiu. He once called the Lin family and found out that Gao Jiu was enjoying the mountains and rivers in the company of beautiful women these days, which made him feel a little unhappy.
Zhou Mingshan asked Gao Jiu for help, but he didn't actually have high hopes, because this matter had nothing to do with Gao Jiu. If it was Zhou Mingshan's own matter, he believed that Gao Jiu would try his best to help. But in this matter,
There was no direct relationship with Zhou Mingshan, and Gao Jiu would not be so enthusiastic. Besides, Gao Jiu was very unfamiliar with Wuhan after all, so it was simply impossible for him to solve the Japanese espionage case in such a short period of time.
Seeing Wang Xilin's frustrated look, Zhou Mingshan wanted to comfort him, but Zhou Mingshan also knew that whatever he said now was nonsense unless it could help him crack the Japanese spy case. After thinking about it, he decided to ask Gao Gao
Jiu come over and have a chat, even if it can provide Wang Xilin with an idea.
At the beginning, Wang Xilin found Zhou Mingshan. Zhou Mingshan once said that he would ask a friend to help. When Wang Xilin saw that Gao Jiu was a very young lieutenant, he felt a little dissatisfied. He felt that Zhou Mingshan was here.
I still make jokes like this at times, which is really not enough of a friend.
Wang Xilin briefly exchanged greetings with Gao Jiu and stood up to leave. He didn't want to waste time here anymore. He decided to work harder on his own and strive to make a breakthrough on the last day.
Zhou Mingshan stopped him and said: "Xilin, this friend of mine may not be young, but he has great powers. He analyzed the matter of the Japanese female spy. You might as well listen to his opinion."
When Wang Xilin heard this, he looked at Gao Jiu again and sat down again. He asked with a glimmer of hope: "Brother Xiao, what other clues can you provide?"
Gao Jiu said: "Director Wang, I think there is something wrong with the direction of your military command investigation."
Wang Xilin and his generals all have rich experience. They have analyzed every aspect they can think of. When Gao Jiu said this, he said with some displeasure: "What's the problem?"
Gao Jiu said: "I think your military commander has been misled. The Japanese female spy appeared outside the window of the Chief of Operations' office. Therefore, you will all think that her goal is to steal the battle plan of the ninth theater. In fact, their goal is not
this."
Wang Xilin asked: "She went to the Minister of War to steal the war plan, so what?"
Gao Jiu said: "Director Wang, think about it, after the Battle of Xuzhou, the movements of the Japanese army are not yet clear. What kind of combat plan can the Ninth War Zone formulate? How can it be done before the precise intelligence of the Japanese army is grasped?
Can we formulate a combat plan? Such an operation
What is the significance of the battle plan? Even if the Ninth Theater has really formulated a battle plan, the battle in Wuhan has not yet begun. As the war situation changes, the battle plan will continue to be adjusted. The Japanese army now has this
What’s the point of a battle plan?”
When Wang Xilin heard this, he suddenly came to his senses. He said: "Brother Xiao, what you said makes sense. Then what do you think the goal of the Japanese spies is?"
Gao Jiu said: "Sooner or later, the Japanese army will attack Wuhan, and their target is Wuhan's national defense engineering design drawings. You may have overlooked that just one floor above the Office of the Minister of Operations is the office of the National Defense Engineering Design Bureau.
The reason why the Japanese female spy appeared on the third floor window was because he wanted to use the flagpole to escape.
The window on the fourth floor was higher than the top of the flagpole, so it was inconvenient for her to jump onto the flagpole. Standing on the window sill on the third floor, she could just jump up, hug the flagpole and slide down."
Wang Xilin's eyes lit up and he said: "Oh! Why didn't I think of that? Your analysis really makes sense."
At this time, Wang Xilin completely put away his contempt for Gao Jiu. He raised his hand and said, "Brother Xiao, you are really a master. What should I do next? Please give me some advice, brother."
Gao Jiu didn't beat around the bush, he said: "The target of the Japanese spies has been determined, you just put the target on the people in the design bureau who have access to the design drawings, check it out, start with them, it will be easy to break through
Is it much easier?”
Wang Xilin just couldn't find a breakthrough. Now that he has found a breakthrough direction, he has many ideas in his mind for the next thing. He said: "Brother Xiao, thank you for pointing out a clear path for me. I will go back and arrange it right away.
"
After saying that, he stood up and was about to leave. Gao Jiu felt that this man was a little impatient and took things for granted, so he couldn't help but shake his head slightly.
Zhou Mingshan saw Gao Jiu's appearance and hurriedly stopped Wang Xilin. He said: "Xilin, I know you are so anxious because you only have one day left. But since you see my friend, why don't you invite me?"
He continues to give you advice? Do you think you can solve this case in just one day?"
Wang Xilin is actually a very cautious and calm veteran agent. It's just that he was a little confused because time was too tight.
After hearing this, he sat down again and said to Gao Jiu: "Brother Xiao, I'm really sorry. I'm too impatient. Please forgive me. If you have any other ideas, please give me some advice."
Gao Jiu simply said: "Li Kunpeng from the Ninth Theater District National Defense Engineering Design Bureau, his anti-war husband is very suspicious. I think it is almost certain that she is a Japanese female spy. Just focus on her."
Wang Xilin was very happy, but he was still a little unsure. He said: "Brother Xiao, what evidence do you have? Can you really be sure that it is her?"
Gao Jiu smiled faintly and stopped talking.
Zhou Mingshan had long been accustomed to Gao Jiu's expression. He knew that Gao Jiu had already given a definite answer.
He hurriedly said to Wang Xilin: "Xilin, this friend of mine is a man of God. Just do what he says and you will never go wrong."
Wang Xilin saw that Zhou Mingshan was so sure, and then thought about how tight his time was now, and he didn't have time to conduct a comprehensive investigation. He gritted his teeth and said: "Well, Brother Xiao, thank you for your advice. If it can really be solved,
This case is equivalent to saving my life, brother. I will repay this great kindness in the future." After saying that, he said goodbye and left.
After Wang Xilin left, Zhou Mingshan asked curiously: "Master Jiu, I see that you accompany beautiful women all day long and travel around. When did you go to investigate this spy case?"
Gao Jiu smiled and said: "It's a secret. I can't tell you this secret. Otherwise, brother, I will have nothing to eat in the future."
Zhou Mingshan knew he was joking, and since Gao Jiu didn't say anything, he stopped asking.
