Under the protection of many bodyguards, Ning Zhiheng quickly returned to his home. Yi Huaan arranged a large number of guards in the villa, for fear that someone would assassinate the president again.

After the arrangement was completed, he returned to Ning Zhiheng's study and asked softly: "President, why did this happen? Who assassinated you?"

Ning Zhiheng had already taken off his blood-stained jacket and simply cleaned up. The servants wanted to serve him and rest, but were reprimanded by him.

He was waiting in the study for Yi Huaan to come up to arrange the next step of work.

Now that I heard Yi Huaan ask, I immediately said unhappy: "Who will assassinate me? You are not those idiots at Shanghai Station. They are simply wanton and stupid. No, they are not stupid. At least they know how to use the trick of luring the tiger away from the mountain."

Seeing Yi Huaan confused, Ning Zhiheng had to explain clearly: "Shanghai Station mobilized a large number of people tonight and launched an attack on the Special High School Money Printing Base. Before the attack, several targets were selected to assassinate, trying to attract the Japanese's attention and lure the tiger away from the mountain, but by chance, I was actually selected!

Duan Tiecheng had a good plan. This attack almost cost me my life. Unfortunately, when I met Taro Sagawa, the old fox, and I was unmoved and waited for it. As a result, hundreds of people attacking the money printing base were wiped out. The assassination operation was not able to withdraw the concession in time. A team of people were shot dead on the Suzhou River, and the losses were too heavy.

So there should be some people who have not escaped the Suzhou River and are currently trapped in downtown Shanghai."

Speaking of this, Ning Zhiheng hit the table with one punch, watching so many anti-Japanese soldiers die, which made Ning Zhiheng feel heartbroken. This was simply a disaster.

Yi Huaan was shocked when he heard this. Ning Zhiheng had not disclosed the detailed information to him before. After all, this is the nature of the work of the intelligence department. Many intelligence only need to be known by the special person in charge. It is not advisable to disclose to irrelevant people. Even if he is the person he trusts the most, Ning Zhiheng cannot convey every piece of information to everyone, as this is not conducive to confidentiality.

Now Ning Zhiheng needs Yi Huaan to take over and clean up the mess, so he told him some necessary situations.

Yi Huaan also understood Ning Zhiheng's meaning. It seemed that he had to arrange tasks for himself. He quickly said, "I didn't expect that the Shanghai Station would have done such a big move and messed up. What should I do next? Do I need to report the situation to the headquarters?"

"Of course I have to report it!" Ning Zhiheng slapped the table and cursed fiercely, "A general is incompetent and exhausted thousands of troops. This time the losses are so heavy, Duan Tiecheng and Wang Hanmin cannot refuse the blame, and no one can redeem it if you die!

This time I will personally apply to the bureau’s office to severely punish these two people, but the most important thing now is to rescue this part of the people trapped in the city of Shanghai immediately.”

Yi Huaan asked hesitantly: "President, if we intervene in the rescue, it will be difficult to avoid dealing with them. Your principle is to not have any contact with them!"

Ning Zhiheng sighed and explained: "This time, that time, and this time, we must save them this time. Even if we pay some price, we will do whatever we want, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable!"

He walked back and forth in the room a few times, sorted out his thoughts, and said again: "This time the Shanghai Station took such a major action. Duan Tiecheng and Wang Hanlin, who are executors, will definitely command the site, so when the operation was launched, they must have been in the downtown of Shanghai at that time.

As for where they are now? The best result is that they died in battle against the banknote printing base, or on the surface of the Suzhou River. In this way, we all will worry.

But I'm afraid they are still alive now and are still among these trapped people. This is what I worry about the most.

You should know that as the Shanghai station's station's station's station's station's station's situation, list of personnel, hidden identities, industrial distribution, etc., there are even a few secret numbers specially assigned by the headquarters, as well as the communication methods and radio passwords of the two national-savior troops under his command.

Duan Tiecheng's identity is even more important. He is the deputy director of the headquarters' intelligence department and has countless high secrets in his hands.

If two people fall into the opponent, the losses caused will be disastrous, and the Military Intelligence Station in the entire central China region will suffer a devastating blow.

Another point is that these two people have met me before, and once they surrender to the enemy, it will pose a fatal threat to me.

So you can't let them fall into the opponent no matter what the cost is, and you have to rescue them."

Speaking of this, a trace of fierce light flashed in Ning Zhiheng's eyes: "If you can't save it, you must also silence it to prevent future troubles!"

Yi Huaan became more and more frightened as he heard it. He had far underestimated the seriousness of the matter before. It seemed that this crisis was life-and-death and there must be no mistake.

According to the Director, the danger that Duan Tiecheng and Wang Hanmin brought to the Intelligence Department is too great. The Director is the core of the Shanghai Intelligence Department. If his identity is exposed, the entire Intelligence Department will be destroyed.

Yi Huaan became more and more scared the more he thought about it. He asked urgently: "You must not let the Japanese find them. What should we do now?"

Ning Zhiheng was silent for a moment, thinking carefully about all possible possibilities. He knew that this time the matter was too serious. This would be the biggest crisis he had encountered since he lurked in Shanghai. If he dealt with it inappropriately, even if there was a little mistake, the consequences would be unimaginable.

He said in a deep voice: "Of course we need to find them first. According to our surveillance of the Shanghai Intelligence Station, since their establishment, their main scope of activities has been in the French Concession, and there has been no reliable contact points in the downtown area of ​​Shanghai.

Wang Hanmin is very cautious in his work. The only action he had entered the city was to buy the old Lian family house. The old house was large in area, which was enough for them to hide temporarily. So I judged that they were likely to go to the old Lian family house, which was the only place we could find them.

If they didn't go, it would be that heaven was beyond the reach of others and I could do nothing.

But even the old house is not a place to hide. We have carefully searched there, and there is no secret room or tunnel for hiding.

Once a large-scale search is conducted, the Japanese will definitely be very thorough. There are so many people, without identification certificates and no hiding place, and they will definitely be exposed.

So you must send someone to contact them, take them to a safe house where you can hide, avoid this big search, and then make a long-term plan for future matters.

Now do you have a safe place to hide?”

The intelligence work in the city of Shanghai has always been entrusted to Yi Huaan. With its strong funds, Yi Huaan has arranged many safe houses and industries in the city of Shanghai, and has done a very thorough job in this area.

Hearing Ning Zhiheng’s question, Yi Huaan asked, “How many people need to be placed?”

Ning Zhiheng thought for a moment, calculated secretly and analyzed: "There are many people who attacked me today. Judging from the fire exchange, there are at least about twenty people. In addition, they also assassinated two other targets. I judged that the number of people who performed the assassination should be around forty to fifty people. Except for the ten people who lost in Suzhou River, it is now about thirty to forty. You can follow this number of people and think about whether there is a place to be placed?"

"So many people?" Yi Huaan lowered his head and thought for a while, and said hesitantly, "There is only one place. We set up a flour mill in the west of the city and arranged several secret rooms under the warehouse of the flour mill. If it is squeezed, forty people should be able to be placed. However, once he is used by the Shanghai Station, we can only give up this place in the future. It's such a pity!"

"Then let's arrange it here. Now no matter how much the price it costs, it is worth it. They must be rescued." Ning Zhiheng waved his hand and said immediately.

He raised his hand and looked at the time, and said in a deep voice: "It's one o'clock in the morning. The Japanese are currently unable to mobilize a large amount of military forces to search overnight. However, as soon as the sky is dawn, the Japanese will definitely be martial law across the city and start a search operation. It is impossible to transfer them. Now there are still five hours before dawn. You must pick them up before dawn and send them to the designated location. It will be too late."

According to Ning Zhiheng's analysis, Shanghai's urban area is very large and has a population of more than 3 million. It is extremely time-consuming and labor-intensive to conduct a large-scale search of such a large urban area.

It is impossible to do without enough manpower. Even if the Japanese concentrate the military police, the special high school classes, and the police station, it is difficult to add up, unless they mobilize the garrison to help.

This requires a process, so it is impossible for them to arrange it overnight. The biggest possibility is to do it after dawn, which gives Ning Zhiheng several hours of preparation time.

"I'll make arrangements right away and I'll transfer them out!" Yi Huaan nodded and agreed, turned around and prepared to leave, and Ning Zhiheng called him again.

"You can choose an intelligence officer who has worked in the Nanjing headquarters to contact them. It is best to have met Duan Tiecheng. You must explain the words clearly. You must gain their trust and understand their interests. Let them move quickly. You must not delay it!"

Ning Zhiheng was very worried at this time. Duan Tiecheng and others did not believe in the team members they sent, and they delayed the transfer time for this.

After all, at such a tense moment, his people suddenly came to contact him without any certificate, so it was difficult to convince the other party. So try to pick a team member who had met Duan Tiecheng, so maybe he could gain Duan Tiecheng's trust. Even if Duan Tiecheng didn't know the sent people, at least Ning Zhiheng should know whether Duan Tiecheng was among these trapped people.

"What if things don't go well, what if they refuse to trust our people and insist on leaving?" Yi Huaan asked again.

Ning Zhiheng frowned and said in a deep voice: "They shouldn't be so stupid. Staying in the old house of Lian's family is only a dead end. If they insist on refusing, you can immediately mobilize two gunmen and stay near the old house of Lian's family, ready to take action at any time. As long as Duan Tiecheng and Wang Hanmin show up, they will be killed as soon as possible, and they must not be allowed to fall into the hands of the Japanese."
