Ask Dai's question

In the bloody battle of Shanghai in the late 1930s, agents inherited the legacy of chivalrous men and played various roles such as leaders, believers, opponents, heroes and traitors through historical legends.

In the late 1930s and early 1940s, although people longed for the public concession to provide a paradise for all those who fled the cruel rule of the Japanese occupation army, the island became a turbulent place. The British and American administrative organs under the former Shanghai Administration for Industry and Commerce have been unable to resist the demands of the Japanese army, and the Japanese army is about to enter and occupy the concession. Inspired by patriotism, Shanghai citizens used this isolated island as a base for launching the anti-Japanese movement. Both the Kuomintang and the * * production party used the concession to carry out anti-Japanese propaganda, collect intelligence, obtain military supplies, plan assassinations and carry out anti-Japanese nerve warfare. With the help of Wang puppet police, the Japanese also responded with blows.

At the forefront of this urban war are the agents of the Investigation and Statistics Bureau (Scout) of the Military Committee of the Kuomintang Intelligence Bureau. The leader of the military system is Dai Li, who is called "Himmler of China" by the western media. He used the language of chivalry, benevolence, loyalty and filial piety in classic historical novels such as Romance of the Three Kingdoms and Water Margin to encourage agents to fight to the death. In order to intimidate traitors, from 1939 to 1940, Scouts carried out a series of assassinations of traitors in Shanghai, with Dai Li as the mastermind.

"Parent" Dai Li

1932, in the symbolic Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum on the outskirts of Nanjing, Chiang Kai-shek appointed Dai Li to set up a secret service. As the former president of Whampoa Military Academy, Jiang taught Dai Li that he might as well read traditional historical novels such as Romance of the Three Kingdoms and Water Margin to get inspiration from them.

Dai Li insisted on establishing an organizational system consistent with the traditional beliefs of loyalty, filial piety, benevolence and righteousness, and expressed these ideas in Chinese. He said to his subordinates, "comrades are brothers and sisters, and groups are families." "Our comrades meet benevolence and righteousness, and our relationship is linked by mutual loyalty and trust."

The core organization of the secret service is the Blue Shirt Society, which is composed of a "ten-member group", and its members are almost all students of Huangpu Phase VI. From 1932 to 1937, these old classmates, led by Dai Li, lived together in a special office in Nanjing with a sum of money. They regard this as a continuation of the family, and we are all sworn brothers. This group is equal. Although Dai Li is the leader, he is only the leader among equal brothers.

1937 After the July 7th Incident broke out, the workload of the secret service increased greatly, and its organizational scale increased greatly. By 1938, it has become a military organization. Scout is headquartered in Chongqing, the capital of the Kuomintang, and its members are mostly graduates of scout training courses. The Military Bureau employs more and more military operators and intelligence analysts, and the paramilitary secret service forces are equipped with American equipment. The idioms between sworn brothers and the tragic spirit of ancient warriors still inspire the underground secret service stations behind enemy lines to fight bravely.

The bureaucratization of Juntong Bureau regularized the working relationship, but it did not replace the old brotherly relationship, nor did it change Dai Li's political and cultural concept. Dai Li sent a "Family Style" to Juntong, acting as a parent to handle affairs. Military organizations demand absolute obedience, complete dedication and strict restraint on individual behavior. He quoted the famous saying in Hanshu, "Why should the Huns do it when they are not dead?" He forbade his subordinates to get married during the Anti-Japanese War. He made a rule prohibiting smoking, gambling, playing mahjong and other bad behaviors. People who violate internal discipline are usually imprisoned in solitary confinement, and many people are executed every year for violating bureau rules. This kind of death penalty is called "martyrdom", which is a form of "martyrdom" to ensure the integrity of harsh laws within the military department.

Dai Li asked comrades in the military system to have the qualities of hard work, perseverance, dedication and patience. He constantly reminded them that the purpose of joining a secret organization is to make special contributions to the country and the people. Therefore, in order to maintain the purity of military family education, its members must be ready to make thorough sacrifices at any time, just like the "revolutionary fighters" of Li Xing society led by Chiang Kai-shek himself.

Dai Li admitted that his personal loyalty to Chiang Kai-shek was above all else. He deliberately emphasized the absolute importance of his personal loyalty to the leader Chiang Kai-shek. In this way, Dai asked his subordinates to be absolutely loyal to him. In Dai Li's view, the task of the army is to be Chiang Kai-shek's "eyes, ears, hands and feet". Members of the Military Bureau can't think independently, but they must meet the requirements of their masters and be willing to help the leaders.

So much emphasis on the vertical loyalty between superiors and subordinates means that the horizontal brotherhood between comrades will be greatly reduced, even within the secret service. Although the relationship between father and son and brotherhood in the family may not be contradictory under certain conditions, considering the nature of secret organizations like China, it is of great significance to straighten out the axis of vertical loyalty and horizontal obligation. The way of loyalty and filial piety, if taken to extremes, will completely obliterate itself in front of leaders and collectives. Brotherhood allows a certain degree of self-judgment, even autonomy. The potential contradiction between Dai Li and his subordinates seems unreasonable.

It is because of self-denial (and sometimes even self-degradation) that Dai Li succeeded in winning the complete trust of Chiang Kai-shek. Chiang Kai-shek once asked his men to be "unsung heroes" in the "revolutionary cause". A paradoxical result is that self-obliteration, even complete loss of self, gives Dai Li secret power, but opens the way for him to expand himself. The cost and compensation paid by this practice is quite large. The internal contradiction between the code of conduct of sworn brothers and family law, and the internal contradiction between horizontal loyalty and filial piety and vertical loyalty and filial piety will lead to vague relations and different order problems.

In a word, Dai Li is a master of using this vague relationship. He is the main arbiter of the internal affairs of the Military Bureau, and his interpretation of the rules of the Military Bureau is a matter of life and death for his subordinates. But the brotherhood itself also has certain restrictions on his power of life and death. Its binding force is that Dai Li cannot break the contract for expediency. This is why, on the one hand, there is the mysterious and heroic Liu Geqing incident, on the other hand, there will be double or triple treason. This incident seriously tested Dai Li's ability to deal with subordinates' behavior.

Liu Geqing incident

Liu Geqing, the son of overseas Chinese in Fujian, has a rich family. He graduated from Shanghai National Jinan University with a bachelor's degree. 1935 In the summer, he happened to meet Dai Li and joined the Scout at the age of 28. Liu's background is quite special, because before War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression started, there were almost no college graduates in the Military Bureau. Dai Li studied in Zhejiang First Normal University. Before 19 19, the curriculum of normal university was still a traditional discipline of literature and history. From the upper level to the middle level, military officials read the study of Confucian classics and history from an early age. Traditional pop culture praises the assassins of the Warring States and the heroes of the Three Kingdoms, and they grew up in this cultural atmosphere.

Great changes have taken place in China's higher education system in the 20th century. The college entrance examinations in Beijing and Shanghai emphasize English and math scores, so these students from "middle peasants" families in various provinces can't compete with others. They also don't like the westernized social elites of the May 4th generation. They advocate breaking old habits and carrying out social revolution. Intelligence officers like Dai Li are often immersed in the world of traditional the legend of heroes and historical analogy, from which they derive their own code of conduct.

When recruiting front-line agents, Dai Li is looking for people who have been trained in martial arts, just like the fierce and aggressive rangers described in historical records and popular novels. He invited the Kung Fu master to the Military Bureau as a living model, just like the hero in the legend of the legendary swordsman (a martial arts novel that was very popular among ordinary citizens at that time). In order to find heroes in the rivers and lakes, the secret service went deep into the hinterland and recruited troops in Shengxian County in the mountainous area of Zhejiang Province and Xiangyang in the upper reaches of Hanshui River. These areas are famous for bandits and refugees, and there are also stories of chivalrous heroes and outlaws who are brave and courageous.

When organizing agent core members, Dai Li often pays attention to their origins and places of origin, and then uses their relations with relatives, friends and classmates to recruit more agents. This relationship is particularly important before military training classes. Because Dai Li is very dependent on these relatives and friends, his male and female subordinates mainly come from Zhejiang, Guangdong and Hunan provinces.

When the Anti-Japanese War broke out, the unification of military system based on personal loyalty and special relationship was severely tested. People in Dai Li found that they wanted to beat not only the Japanese, but also Wang Ching-wei's former Kuomintang brothers. Liu Geqing's background is different from that of most of his colleagues in the military system. He is neither a Huangpu department nor a fellow villager, and he is not a small circle of the military system in all aspects. It can be seen that Liu's loyalty to the military system is not the product of factions, but based on his true dedication to Dai Li's chivalrous way.

In order to thwart Japan's attempt to reach a partial peace with the puppet regime, the military government launched a systematic campaign and threatened to assassinate those who wanted to be traitors. Six months before Liu Geqing's assassination, the Scout killed another senior traitor in the concession, which is the embodiment of the Scout policy. 1938 10, former ambassador and cabinet minister of Tang dynasty, was hacked to death with an axe by a spy disguised as an antique dealer in the concession apartment. At that time, it was learned that Tang had been selected by Kenji Tufei, the chief intelligence officer of the Japanese army, to be the leader of the puppet government in the occupied areas. In order to nip the negotiation in the bud, the Scouts eliminated dohihara's favorite candidate.

The assassination activities carried out by scouts during this period are obvious to all. Military agents launched more than 40 attacks on Japanese officers and destroyed enemy military facilities, including airports and arsenals, more than 50 times. Their actions greatly inspired Chongqing's supporters. The pro-Chongqing newspapers greatly exaggerated every incident, and related editorials compared the assassin to a contemporary chivalrous man who helped heaven.

Liu Geqing is one of the most successful assassins in the army. 1939, 18 February (editor's note: it was 19 February at this time), and was ordered by Wang Tianmu, the stationmaster of Scout Shanghai Station, to assassinate Lu Chen, the "foreign minister" of Nanjing Puppet Reform Government, and his fame spread far and wide. Lu Chen's assassination is no small matter, but the significance of Liu Geqing's incident lies in his unswerving loyalty to Dai Li.

When Liu Geqing's incident happened, Scout Shanghai Station was on the verge of being disintegrated by opponents and enemies, and the loyalty of Scout agents to the organization was being severely tested. Liu Geqing showed his loyalty to the organization with his own actions. In the military history written by the government later, Liu Geqing was a real hero in the dark world of espionage and counter-espionage, and a righteous man praised by Dai Li. Liu's loyalty to Dai Li is like a ranger's loyalty to his sworn brother and boss. In the bloody battle of Shanghai in the late 1930s, agents inherited the legacy of chivalrous men and played various roles such as leaders, believers, opponents, heroes and traitors through historical legends.

No.76 Gisfei Road

In retaliation for the military government's attack, the Japanese killed innocent people in Shanghai. After every military action, the Japanese army immediately executed a large number of innocent people in China. The execution spread the atmosphere of terror, but it could not effectively respond to the challenge of the military system.

Lu Chen's assassination made the Japanese feel the need to set up corresponding spy agencies to ensure the safety of big traitors, eliminate military spies in Shanghai and suppress the anti-Japanese propaganda of China newspapers in Shanghai Concession. The result is the emergence of traitor spy organization, which is famous for its location at No.76, Kesfield Road, and its founder is Li Shiqun.

As early as February 1939, Li Shiqun and Ding Mocun met with dohihara in Little Tokyo, the headquarters in Shanghai, dohihara, and then began to organize this traitor spy organization. Both of them were agents of the Kuomintang Central Committee of China (Bureau of Investigation and Statistics of the Central Executive Committee). Ding and Li said that they could help "gather Kuomintang comrades to promote the peace process". Japanese people are naturally happy to have such a tool to help them break into China's seemingly impenetrable social network.

On February 1939 and 10, the Japanese Tokyo Military Department approved dohihara's plan to support the puppet secret service. From March 1 day, Ding and Li officially started working. They agreed to report the details of the operation to the Japanese gendarmerie in advance and also agreed to report to the Japanese every day. The Japanese provided weapons, ammunition and money. At the beginning of June, the organization was established in the residence of General Chen, the former Anhui warlord in the west of Shanghai. Ding and Li installed an iron gate on the house to make it look like a bunker, and began to form a force against "Operation 76" (kidnapping and assassination).

Ding Mo Village and Li Shiqun are absolute masters in this field. In the 1920 s, he was a traitor of the * * * production party, and in the 1930 s, he was an agent of the Kuomintang Central Committee. Chen and Chen Lifu brothers used their pivotal influence in the KMT Central Executive Committee to form a powerful political faction CC. As the main figure of CC intelligence agency, Ding Mocun once served as the director of the Third Division of the Investigation and Statistics Bureau of the Military Commission of the National Government. He has colleagues with Xu Enceng in one place (Central China) and Dai Li in two places (China Military Region). At the end of 1938, the CMC reorganized its intelligence agencies, three of which were dissolved, and their organizations were taken over by Dai Li's military government. The reorganization of the organization reflected that Huangpu faction and CC faction gained the upper hand in the power struggle in Chongqing, and also had an impact on Chiang Kai-shek's anti-Japanese policy. As a result of the reorganization, Ding Mocun was naturally dismissed. He was dissatisfied, so he took refuge in the Japanese in Shanghai in the spring of 1939.

The real backstage boss of No.76 is Li Shiqun. In the early 1930s, he was active in Shanghai-Nanjing area and joined green gang headed by Du, who was the apprentice of Ji Yunqing, a small leader in green gang. Li Shiqun is full of entrepreneurial spirit. After he arrived in Shanghai from 65438 to 0938, he worked hard to set up an intelligence network, ready to wait for the price. At first, he was the only one engaged in intelligence work. He bought information from his former colleagues in the Central Committee. Later, his sources of information expanded to middle-level cadres of the Shanghai branch of the Kuomintang and members of green gang. By the time he arrived in Dingmo Village, Li Shiqun had formed a core group of seven people, most of whom were former central and CIA agents. 1On May 8, 939, Wang Jingwei arrived in Shanghai with his entourage. Li Shiqun recruited a group of local ruffians and hooligans headed by green camp leader Wu Shibao, relying on them to ensure the personal safety of Wang Jingwei and his party in Shanghai. The people Li Shiqun wooed were very similar to the cadres in Dai Li Army. In order to announce the existence of Concession 76, Li Shiqun adopted a dual strategy. He wanted to destroy the military organizations in the concession and recruit the most sophisticated agents in the army to be under his command. He wants to use his knowledge of Chongqing intelligence network to achieve his goal through threats and connivance.

In the summer and autumn of 1939, Li Shiqun took action. By September of the same year, he had successfully bribed a number of military officials. Li is very satisfied with the result. When he visited Tokyo at the end of the year, he told his Japanese master that he had destroyed all the military organizations in Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Shanghai, Anhui and Nanjing, and the people in Dai Li were either removed by him or thrown under his door. The main figures in the military system, such as Lin Zhijiang (who assassinated Tang) and the stationmaster of Shanghai Station, are now under his command. He boasted that No.76 not only defeated the military agents of the Blue Shirt Club, but also defeated the central agents of the CC Department.

Wang Tianmu has defected.

1In the late summer of 939, Li Shiqun launched a decisive attack on Scout Shanghai Station. The primary target is Wang Tianmu, the stationmaster of Scout Shanghai Station. In broad daylight, people in Li Shiqun kidnapped Wang Tianmu on Nanjing Road, a commercial street in the public concession, and took him to No.76 Gisfield Road. He was released three weeks later. During his detention, Wang received considerable courtesy.

However, before long, Wang Tianmu almost died under the bullets of his military colleagues. He escaped with indignation and suspected that Dai Li, the "boss", had ordered him to get rid of himself. Another officer showed the king a so-called telegram from Chungking, Dai Li, ordering Wang Tianmu to be executed, which deepened the king's suspicion. He flew into a rage and called Dai Li heartless, claiming that he had left the military system from now on.

As early as March 1938, Dai Li tirelessly reminded agents not to betray their faith as soon as he realized that Li Shiqun was beginning to be unfavorable to him. At the same time, he closely monitored the actions of his subordinates and never let go of any clues, lest his subordinates waver and defect. Wang Tianmu's safe return from No.76 Hospital, known as the "Palace of Death" in Chongqing, will naturally affect the trust in him within the military system, and people also have deep doubts about his loyalty.

This is exactly what Li Shiqun wants. He carefully planned this situation, forcing Dai Li into a dilemma, reminiscent of the story in The Romance of the Three Kingdoms. Both Li Shiqun and Dai Li are familiar with the story of Romance of the Three Kingdoms: Guan Yu, Liu Bei's sworn brother, was brave, but unfortunately fell into the hands of Cao Cao, the last emperor of the Eastern Han Dynasty. Cao Cao treats Guan Yu in every way, but Guan Yu "has Cao Cao in his heart and Han in his heart" and just wants to obey Cao Cao temporarily. When he learned the news of Liu Bei, he hung a seal and rushed out of Cao Ying to see his brother. Guan Yu refused to be generous to senior officials regardless of his personal safety, which can be described as both loyalty and righteousness. However, Guan Goujian is detrimental to Cao's reputation after all. Zhang Fei, another brother, became suspicious, so Guan Yu had to slay Cao Cao's pursuers in front of Zhang Fei and prove his loyalty with their blood.

In the eyes of agents in Dai Li, Wang Tianmu's experience at No.76 was like Guan Yu's experience in Cao Ying. In order to prove his innocence, Wang Tianmu should assassinate Wang Jingwei, the number one traitor. However, Wang Jingwei's residence was heavily guarded, and the assassin could not start. It is conceivable that it is impossible for the king to stab the king, so it is impossible to be sure of the king's infidelity.

In Jianghu, leaders should not doubt the infidelity of their subordinates. Respect for brotherhood is the link between leaders and subordinates, and easy suspicion is the stain of brotherhood. In Romance of the Three Kingdoms, it was his younger brother Zhang Fei who asked Guan Yu to prove his innocence, not his older brother Liu Bei. When Wang Tianmu comes back, if Dai Li becomes suspicious, he will look too "mean" to deserve the loyalty of a brave man. However, it is too risky for a spy leader in the 20th century to have the same attitude of employing people as the leaders in the Warring States and Three Kingdoms, because he knows that today's Jianghu loyalty is not the same as that in ancient times.

If Dai Li ordered the execution of Wang Tianmu, it would be detrimental to his leadership image of attaching importance to benevolence and righteousness. But at that time, Wang's colleagues suspected that Dai Li had given the order. It can be seen that Dai Li lost to the king first, and other military agents also thought that the king's public defection was excusable, so Wang Tianmu defended himself.

Dai Li's loyalty to his subordinates is quite cautious, as can be seen from his handling of two traitors, Wang Tianmu and Chen Mingchu, who defected to the enemy at the same time. Unlike Wang Tianmu, Chen Mingchu's defection to the enemy was entirely voluntary. It is very likely that Chen Mingchu later betrayed Liu Geqing and made Liu fall into the hands of traitor agents.

Dai Li unequivocally ordered the execution of Chen Mingchu. On 1939 Christmas Eve, three military agents talked with Chen Mingchu in a nightclub near Zhaofeng Park in western Shanghai. Now, a group of Wang Fei's main supporters and 20 bodyguards are drinking and having fun in the bar ballroom of the nightclub. Military agents fired at the crowd and Chen Mingchu was killed on the spot. Taking advantage of the confusion, the assassin jumped into the prepared car and fled quickly.

It is not clear whether Wang Tianmu was the target of assassination. He happened to leave the ballroom when the agent fired. The traitor inevitably became suspicious of him, and he was once again taken to No.76 for detailed interrogation. But he was soon released and continued to play for Li Shiqun. At the same time, as revenge for Chen Mingchu's death, 1939 Christmas Day, on July 6th, three members of the military government detained by him were dragged to the compound for execution.

Among the military traitors punished in Dai Li 1939 to 1940, Chen Mingchu's nightclub murder case is a typical case. When Li Shiqun conspired to lure military officials to mutiny, Dai Li also began to increase the punishment for traitors. The assassination triggered revenge, and soon the struggle between the two spy gangs intensified into a full-scale urban war in Shanghai.

/kloc-in the autumn of 0/939, Li Shiqun claimed to have terminated the Scout Station in Shanghai. The military system also claimed to have killed more than a dozen important figures in the puppet secret service. Li Shiqun's men targeted celebrities and anti-Japanese activists loyal to Chiang Kai-shek. Pro-Chongqing newspaper editors and journalists in Shanghai are the main targets of their attacks. These people were forced to hide behind closed doors and windows and go underground to avoid terrorist attacks. Banks related to Chongqing received parcel bombs and grenades.

It is rumored that the secret service of the puppet regime has a blacklist, including more than 100 educators, writers, publishers, journalists, financiers, entrepreneurs and jurists in Shanghai. During this period, many outstanding Shanghai citizens were ambushed and shot in the street, and Liu Zhanen, president of Hujiang University, was one of them.

Although the scouts' spies fought bravely in the streets of Shanghai and attacked traitors, the scouts' intelligence points in major cities behind enemy lines suffered the greatest losses since the Anti-Japanese War. The traitor of Scout Shanghai Station handed over the directory, address and organization contact map of agents in this area to the Japanese gendarmerie. The Japanese gendarmerie, together with agents from the public concession and the French concession, raided the office and hiding place of the 13 military system. In addition, Chen Mingchu, the traitor of Scout in Shanghai, is responsible for the personnel arrangement of Scout Nanjing Station. The information he provided to Japan was extremely accurate and covered a wide range. On August 2nd, 1939, Cai Shenchu, the stationmaster of Tongjun Anqing Station, was arrested and tortured in Nanjing. On August 19, the office and hiding place of scout Nanjing Station were attacked. Tan, deputy stationmaster of Nanjing Station, promised to cooperate with the enemy. On September 6th, the secret radio station of Nanjing Scout fell into enemy hands.

Wang Tianmu has many old relationships in Beijing and Tianjin, and the Japanese military police launched a manhunt in North China based on the information he provided. On September 27th, Zeng Che, the 27-year-old head of the military government in Tianjin, was recognized in the streets of Tianjin and immediately arrested. The next morning, with the help of the British and French Concession police, the Japanese military police attacked the scout's office and hiding place in Tianjin, and captured many spies, including Chen Ziyi, the stationmaster of Tianjin Railway Station, who was 4 1 year old. Zeng and Chen were immediately shot.

The mutiny in Shanghai prompted Zhao, head of the military system of Qingdao Railway Station, to follow suit. I worked with Wang in Shanghai to handle the affairs of the Military Bureau. 1 15 years 10 15 days, Zhao led the Japanese gendarmerie to raid Qingdao. The acting stationmaster of Scout Station handed over the agent list, address and radio station. 1939165438+1On October 24th, the scout's office and radio station in Beiping fell into enemy hands, and Zhou Shiguang, the deputy district chief, was arrested and shot immediately.

The intelligence obtained from the military secret service in Beiping enabled the Japanese gendarmerie to conduct systematic raids in Zhangjiakou, Chahar, Suiyuan, Dandong and Inner Mongolia. Kuomintang intelligence personnel, activists and guerrilla captains were arrested one after another, and radio stations were destroyed. Suspicion between China and Dai Li led to Wang's rebellion, and the Pacific War broke out, which triggered a snowball effect that almost destroyed the intelligence system of generals behind enemy lines.

Shape the wind of loyalty and righteousness

During this period, Liu Geqing was arrested by Li Shiqun at 76 Feier Road. It's just Tianmu. Li treats Liu Geqing with courtesy. On the night of his arrest, Liu was allowed to contact his comrades. Li Shiqun also allowed Liu Geqing's girlfriend Lu Di to come in to accompany him. Lu Di used to deliver letters for Liu and take care of him. Dai Li's biography wrote: Li Shiqun assumed a "gentleman" demeanor, showing his generosity to the hero. He even promised that Liu Geqing could meet the guests and ensure their free access. Liu's two friends, Bao Tianqing (Liu's personal friend) and Zhu (Liu's military colleague), immediately came to No.76 Gisfei Road to visit their friends. Dai Li wrote: "At the time of disaster, even people like Li Shiqun have to admire this unbreakable friendship with comrades."

Liu Geqing asked Zhu Shanyou to bring a note to Dai Li, vowing never to change his loyalty to Dai Li for personal safety under any circumstances. 1940 65438+1October 10, Dai Li ordered Liu's notes to be used as teaching materials to educate students in various training courses. Liu Jian never surrendered, and Zhu risked his life to visit his friends. Dai Li called this behavior "our collective chivalry, and we will be proud of it." Dai Li commented: This is complete loyalty to military groups and comrades, and this loyalty even touched rebels like Li Shiqun.

Dai Li especially appreciated Liu Geqing's loyalty at this critical moment, because it happened shortly after the mutiny in Wang Tianmu. After all, Wang Tianmu is one of the elders of the "Group of Ten". Wang's two daughters have a good relationship with Dai Li's only son, and the two families even plan to have children. According to the successor of Shanghai Railway Station, Wang's defection not only dealt a devastating blow to the underground organizations behind enemy lines, but also made the mutual trust among colleagues disappear. The defection of Wang Tianmu, the core figure, shocked the Military Bureau. Liu Geqing only joined the Military Bureau out of personal admiration for Dai Li, and his loyalty is particularly commendable.

However, some members of the military government are opposed to blaming the fiasco of the underground intelligence war on the betrayal of a disgruntled old spy. In the eyes of an experienced agent like Chen Gongzhu (the new stationmaster of Shanghai Station and former Jiangsu Liaison Officer), there are enough clues to show that there is a mysterious mystery unknown to people here. Chen later recalled: "Although only two or three people defected, the defection was unprecedented. We are facing an extremely complicated and difficult situation ... Is it that the anti-espionage department has carefully planned a long-term plan, and Tin Muk is only a protagonist in this tragedy? " Did Dai Li participate in it and knowingly let his men bleed and die? Did he hide his real intentions from his boss? Will he plan such a cruel plot without regard for righteousness?

Li Shiqun honored Wang Tianmu and Liu Geqing as "distinguished guests", which shows that he appreciates the real hero and is a kind-hearted gentleman worthy of hero's service. He followed the example of Cao Cao's hospitality to Guan Yu in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms and treated Liu Geqing with courtesy. Moreover, after Liu was detained by No.76 for six months, he finally managed to "escape" or "release" Liu in Nanjing.

/kloc-at the beginning of 0/940, Liu Geqing returned to Chongqing. Dai Li regarded Wei Liu as a great hero and gave a banquet in this department. Someone inside the military system wrote a poem comparing Liu's behavior with that of Jing Ke. Liu's safe return with his girlfriend can't help but remind people of the anecdote of bidding farewell to the king of Wu and boating on the five lakes with the stunning beauty Shi. There is a poem that compares Liu's return to retirement. "In fact, the dagger is used to kill God, and Xiao sang a strong man again. History is still a country, and it is willing to follow the five lakes. "

Dai Li seems to have no doubt about Liu Geqing's loyalty, and Liu Geqing is also honest with Dai Li. He asked Dai Li to allow him to send a letter to enemy leader Li Shiqun, and Dai Li readily agreed. Liu praised Li's "and heaven remains our neighbourhood, caring for each other" in his letter ... I should return it another day. "Dai Li laughed it off, because the Scout Bureau prohibited Chongqing from contacting enemy-occupied areas. He made an exception and arranged for people to take this letter to the traitor spy chief to Hong Kong for forwarding.
