Dai Li got dressed and asked, "Qi Wu, what exactly is going on?"
Mao Renfeng shook his head and said: "Secretary, it's not clear what happened at the moment, but I have asked Wang Tianmu to conduct a thorough investigation. But based on the current intelligence, it is basically certain that the solitary army camp has escaped from the detention center, and They are arresting white people in the western part of the concession, but I don’t know what they want to do.”
Dai Li frowned and thought for a moment, then asked: "Qi Wu, what do you think they want to do?"
"This humble position is hard to say," Mao Renfeng cautiously put herself aside, and then whispered, "However, the most worrying thing about this humble position is that the Lone Army Battalion has a grudge because it suffered from the British. This After escaping for the first time, they tried to take revenge on the British. If this is the case, the situation will be complicated."
Dai Li immediately fell into deep thought. He was mentally evaluating how likely this was
The Lone Army Battalion got out of trouble and arrested white people on a large scale in the western part of the concession. This matter cannot be concealed no matter what. It must be reported to Chairman Chiang as soon as possible, otherwise the Central Committee will report it first, or wait for the US and British governments to come forward. Well, if the Nationalist Government is passive in diplomacy before reporting it, Chairman Chiang will definitely be furious.
Chairman Chiang must be thinking, if such a big thing cannot be detected in advance, why do you support your military commander
Therefore, it is certain to report it, but Chairman Chiang will definitely ask the whole story. As the boss of the military commander, Dai Li must not answer like Mao Renfeng at this time: It is not clear what happened. If he really answers like this, Chairman Chiang will still Dai Li should be labeled as incompetent.
After pondering for a moment, Dai Li made a decision.
At that moment, Dai Li took Mao Renfeng and went straight to Chairman Chiang's residence.
When Dai Li and Mao Renfeng drove to Chairman Chiang Kai-shek's official residence, Chairman Chiang had just woken up and was walking in the back garden of the official residence. It was spring, and most of the potted plants in the garden were in bloom, and the whole garden was in brilliant colors. , full of vitality, and even Chairman Chiang became happy.
However, Chairman Chiang's good mood did not last long.
As soon as Chairman Chiang and Mrs. Chiang walked under a cluster of azaleas, the captain of the bodyguard Wang Shihe came over and reported in a low voice: "Commissioner, Dai Yunong has an urgent military report."
"What a disappointment." Mrs. Jiang snorted.
Chairman Jiang patted Mrs. Jiang's little hand, then turned around and followed Wang Shihe to a corner of the garden, where he saw Dai Li and Mao Renfeng standing nervously under the rockery.
Seeing Chairman Jiang approaching, Dai Li and Mao Renfeng quickly bowed: "Committees."
"No need." Chairman Chiang waved his hand and said, "It's so early in the morning, what's the important matter?"
Dai Li winked at Mao Renfeng, and Mao Renfeng stepped forward and said respectfully: "Commissioner, I just received an urgent call from the Shanghai District of the Military Command, saying that more than 400 officers and soldiers from the Gujun Camp had escaped last night. , they did not immediately evacuate Shanghai and prepare to return to Shanghai after escaping, but stayed in the western part of the concession to arrest Western white people everywhere."
"The Lone Army Camp actually got out of trouble?" Chairman Jiang was happy at first when he heard this, but then he was shocked. "They actually stayed in the western part of the concession to arrest white people? Niang Xipi, what do they want to do?"
Mao Renfeng said nothing, but Dai Li took the initiative to take over the conversation and said: "Based on the intelligence we obtained, we can be sure that Gujun Camp is preparing to retaliate against the concession authorities, because before Gujun Camp withdrew into the concession, the Concession Industry Bureau had assured them that They could safely evacuate to the rear through the concession, but the concession authorities finally broke their promise.”
"That's not retaliation." Chairman Chiang said angrily, "Westerners are not something we can afford to offend!"
Dai Li added: "Commissioner, the top priority is to establish contact with the Gujun camp. I suggest that Wang Tianmu immediately send a liaison team to find the Gujun camp and establish a link."
"Yes, that's right." Chairman Jiang nodded repeatedly and said, "Immediately ask Wang Tianmu to send a liaison team. Yunong, you must telegraph Wang Tianmu and ask him to find and contact Gujun Camp in the shortest possible time no matter what. , we must not let the Lone Army Battalion do whatever they want, and we must not let them make things worse."
"Yes." Dai Li nodded and said, "I'll do my humble job now."

Shanghai, Zhongcun Agency.
The Nakamura agency learned the news no later than the military commander.
When Kawamoto Ryota walked into the office to report to Kage Sasaki, Kage Sasaki was angry because of the news he had just learned.
Yingzuo Zhenzhao just received a call from Liu Nina from a public phone booth. Liu Nina cried to Yingzuo Zhenzhao, saying that Liang Wuyiju had cheated on her with Niu Mibo, another socialite at No. 76 last night. , called him to the Broadway Building together, and asked them to accompany him all day and night. Liang Wuyi tormented them until six in the morning before letting them go.
Moreover, Liang Wuyi also said that if he had nothing to do today, he would find them again and let them play with him.
After Yingzuo Zhenzhao heard about it, he was inevitably a little angry. Liu Nina was trained by him. His original purpose of training Liu Nina was to use her as a tool to seduce the target person. Therefore, for those who sacrificed Liu Nina Ying Zuo Zhenzhao doesn't mind at all about his appearance, but he still feels a little unhappy about letting Liang Wuyi, a playboy, sleep in vain.
However, angry as hell, this little thing is not enough for Yingzuo Zhenzhao to intervene.
Yingzuo Zhenzhao only pretended to comfort Liu Nina for a few words on the phone and then hung up.
As soon as Kage Sasaki hung up the phone, Kawamoto Ryota knocked on the door and strode in. Then he put his feet back and stood at attention. Then he reported with a heavy tone: "Your Excellency, Colonel, we have just received news that the man who was previously detained in the West District of the Public Concession The 1st Battalion of the 524th Regiment of the 88th Division of the National Army has successfully escaped from prison."
"Nani, have you escaped?" Yingzuo Zhenzhao was surprised when he heard this, and then his face changed and he said, "Notify the Ninth Division immediately and ask General Yoshizumi to send troops to intercept and kill him. The warehouse inflicted heavy losses on the imperial army and has a special status in the hearts of the Chinese people. If it can be annihilated, it will definitely weaken the Chinese people's determination to resist."
"Your Majesty Colonel, I'm afraid you are worrying too much." Kawamoto Ryota shook his head and said, "Although the 1st Battalion of the 524th Regiment successfully escaped, they did not leave the public concession. In fact, they not only did not leave the public concession, but Are you arresting Westerners in the western part of the concession, but you don’t know what they are going to do?”
"Oh? Is there such a thing?" Yingzuo Zhenzhao was surprised when he heard this.
After pondering for a moment, Yingzuo Zhenzhao frowned and said, "Are they taking revenge on the British?"
"This is just a guess." Ryota Kawamoto shook his head and said, "I suggest that I send someone to conduct a thorough investigation immediately to find out the truth behind the escape of the 1st Battalion of the 524th Regiment and their true intention of arresting Westerners." After a pause. , Ryota Kawamoto tentatively suggested again, "Your Excellency, Colonel, why not leave it to the East Asia Peace Promotion Association's Secret Service to thoroughly investigate this case?"
"East Asia Peace Promotion Association?" Yingzuo Zhenzhao shook his head and said with a wry smile, "Let's forget it."
"Forget it?" Ryota Kawamoto was surprised when he heard this, and then said, "Your Excellency Colonel, haven't you always been very optimistic about Liang Sang? And the reason why you want to support the East Asia Peace Promotion Association and allow the East Asia Peace Promotion Association to establish a secret service is, Isn't it just to stimulate No. 76? And now is an excellent opportunity."
"But Liang Wuyi is a playboy after all. I don't know if my decision is right now?" Ying Zuozhenzhao shook his head with a bitter smile and said, "I'm afraid you can't imagine what kind of ridiculous things Liang Wuyi did last night. What happened? Last night, he actually called Liu Nina and Niu Meibo from No. 76 to the Broadway Building and asked them to accompany him. They kept fooling around until six o'clock this morning. Do you think Liang Wuyi still has the energy to do it for the imperial army? Is it serious?"
"Nana Nani? Until six in the morning?" Ryota Kawamoto said in shock, "So strong!"
"What are you talking about? What about being strong or not?" Kage Sasaki glared at Ryota Kawamoto and said, "Leave this matter to No. 76, but you must tell Li Shiqun not to provoke him. For the people of the 524th Regiment, right now, it is the British, Americans and French who are anxious, and it is not our turn."
"Hai." Kawamoto Ryota paused hard and turned around.

The Lone Army Battalion's operation to arrest white people finally caused an uproar in Shanghai.
Following the Juntong, Zhongtong, No. 76 and Zhongcun agencies, by the next morning, the Concession Industry Bureau finally figured out the whole story and learned that the Gujun Battalion actually escaped from the detention center and killed 20 people who were in charge of guarding it. There were several British guards and Belarusian guards, and instead of escaping far away, they actually dared to stay in the western part of the concession and arrest Western white people. Jonathan, the general director of the concession's Industrial Bureau, was furious.
"These Chinese pigs, these damn despicable Chinese pigs, I'm going to arrest them all, I'm going to hang them all on the gallows!" Jonathan waved his fat hands like pig's feet and pointed at Police Commissioner Johnson Yelling, "Gather all the patrols and detectives in the entire concession, gather them all..."
Before Jonathan could finish speaking, Johnson said in a disgraceful voice: "Mr. General Director, I'm afraid this is impossible, because many Chinese police officers in the concession have turned against each other, so I don't recommend using Chinese police officers. They are unreliable. I propose to immediately request support from the garrison and ask the army to come forward to suppress it."
"These damn Chinese guys, I know they are unreliable." Jonathan cursed fiercely and added, "Then call Brigadier General Ferguson immediately and request that the Army be dispatched immediately to suppress the atrocities of the Chinese and maintain the stability and prosperity of the concession. , you must tell Brigadier General Ferguson and ask him to hang all those Chinamen who are causing trouble!"
