King of Secret Service

For now, the war of resistance is still at a disadvantage. Although the Japanese army in central China was intercepted, the Japanese army in North China was in full swing and unstoppable, with the momentum of sweeping south and southwest.

Meanwhile, the Military and Political Council is busy mobilizing elite troops to prepare for the defense of Wuhan.

Liang Xiao's visit to Wuhan this time is to attend the National Defense and Military Conference of the Military and Political Council, and to prepare to attend the annual meeting held by senior government leaders in Wuhan.

Now attends the military defense conference, but has not yet attended the annual meeting held by senior government leaders.

Moreover, there are still a few days before the Chinese New Year, just take advantage of these few days and make good use of it. After all, he must get the position of the first deputy director of the Military Investigation and Statistics Bureau.

By the means of appointment, after the establishment of the Military Investigation and Statistics Bureau, the nominal director must be He Yaozu, the director of the attendant office, but he is not the director of the bureau, and the first deputy bureau and several other deputy bureaus are in charge.

The first sub-office is equivalent to the main game, and the other sub-offices are the deputy.

Therefore, it is not surprising that the first deputy bureau is called the head of the military command.

Liang Xiao holds great power in the army. If he takes over the military leadership, he can quickly establish a military intelligence network in the area south of the Yangtze River. At that time, the entire Japanese army in central China will be within his sight.

It's just that the position of the first deputy bureau of the military command is probably not so easy to get. After all, there are too many people staring at this position, especially Dai Li, who dreams of taking the position, but he is not qualified. In the hearts of the committee members, Dai Li has been downgraded from a confidant to an ordinary person.

There are also many people who are also eyeing the position of the first deputy bureau.

After thinking about it for a while, he asked Chen Hua to prepare a sum of money and send it to the officials in the attendant room, so that they could mediate.

He also went to pay a visit to the attendant Shi Zu in person, and briefly expressed his intention to him.

He Yaozu is very tactful, and also very knowledgeable about current affairs, as soon as he heard that he hastily agreed.

After all, today's Liang Xiao is qualified to investigate the First Deputy Bureau of the Bureau of Statistics.

Moreover, he only needs to report a few words to the committee, and I believe the committee is also willing to let Liang Xiao be the director of the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics.

After some gossip, Liang Xiao bid farewell and went out.

a few days later.

The atmosphere of the new year is getting stronger and stronger, and the streets and alleys are full of festive atmosphere.

Although the Japanese devils have entered the village, and the Central Plains are full of smoke, but in the Wuhan area, the taste of the New Year is still very strong, and it will not be affected at all.

On the street, the people are happily buying new year's goods, and the peddlers are peddling in the streets, bustling and lively, and the stream is endless.

The top officials of the Wuhan government have already started preparations for the annual meeting.

As a lieutenant commander, Liang Xiao has a great reputation, and every day there are many posts inviting him to various parties.

No, early this morning, someone sent a post.

Chen Hua is responsible for receiving posts every day, picks out the important ones, and then hands them over to Liang Xiao, who can make his own judgment.

Today's post is an invitation post sent by the Wuhan government, inviting General Liang Xiao to attend tonight's reception for military and political officials.

After Liang Xiao read the post, he said, "That's it."

"Don't you seldom attend the receptions of military and political officials?"

Chen Hua was surprised.

"There should be news about the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics tonight. I'll go check it out."

Liang Xiao said lightly.

"You are determined to win the throne of the director general, and I believe you will get your wish."

Chen Huadao.

"With your kind words, I hope I can get my wish."

Liang Xiao chuckled.

"One more thing. Director Dai called in the morning and asked you to come over."

Chen Huadao.

"Did you say something?"

Liang Xiao said.

"No."

Chen Hua shook his head.

"Dai Li is an old boy who spends his whole day besides... slapping money. What can he do?"

Liang Xiao said.

Chen Hua smiled lightly.

"You tell him, I'll be there in a moment."

Liang Xiao said.

"OK."

Chen Hua turned around and left.

after awhile.

After Liang Xiao was busy with the work at hand, he asked the guards to prepare the car. He was going to meet Dai Li and see what the old guy could do.

The car is ready.

He set off by car and went to Dai Li's residence.

Early in the morning, Dai Li was tossing around in the mansion, not knowing what he was doing.

After Liang Xiao came, he saw him holding a wooden hammer and swinging it, as if he was practicing hammering.

"Brother Yu Nong is quite leisurely."

"Take time to play with both hands."

After seeing Liang Xiao coming, Dai Li hurriedly put down the wooden hammer and laughed.

"Brother Yu Nong called me over early in the morning, what's the matter?"

Liang Xiao asked.

"One more thing, sit down and talk."

Dai Li said.

Liang Xiao nodded slightly and sat down: He wants to see what Dai Li has to say.

Chapter 2 and Five

"Fei Yu, it's like this. I've received reliable news that the headmaster plans to formally expand the Military Intelligence Department into the Military Intelligence Investigation and Statistics Bureau after the year. You also know that once the Military Intelligence Department is upgraded to the Military Investigation and Statistics Bureau, the staffing will increase significantly." If there is an increase, the Military and Political Council will definitely allocate a large amount of funds, and then we will have more and more bargaining chips.”

"I came to you today, mainly because I wanted to discuss with you about the establishment of the headquarters of the Military Survey and Statistics Bureau. What I mean is that we each arrange our own manpower and perform their duties independently of each other. How about that?"

Dai Li smiled tentatively.

"Brother Yu Nong means one game, two systems"

Liang Xiao raised his eyebrows and asked.

Dai Li said with a sneer: "That's what it means, if Fei Yu becomes the leader, someone Dai will take orders."

"Can the principal agree to this?"

Liang Xiao said.

"The headmaster has put his heart and soul into our military matters, and I think he will promise us."

Dai Li said confidently.

Judging from his expression, Liang Xiao knew that he must have some gossip, or was operating something secretly.

The old boy Dai Li was afraid that he would overwhelm him, so he intentionally made a difficult problem for him, and even raised his seat to overwhelm him, just... he didn't want himself to ride on his head.

But how can Liang Xiao be a good friend? Since he decided to be the first director of the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics, how can one mountain accommodate two tigers? Even if he can't interfere with Dai Li's military intelligence system, he must firmly control personnel Great power to curb Dai Li's development.

"Director Dai, it's still too early to talk about this... After all, it's not Chinese New Year yet, and the headmaster hasn't announced the establishment of the Military Investigation and Statistics Bureau, so let's stop worrying about it, everything waits Let’s talk after the principal announces.”

Liang Xiao said.

"Come here, bring it up."

Dai Li narrowed his eyes slightly. He also expected that Liang Xiao would not agree easily. After all, after the establishment of the Military Control Bureau, the establishment is so large. If Liang Xiao easily compromised, he would not be called Liang Xiao.

After Dai Li waved his hand, two soldiers walked over carrying a big box.

When the box was opened, it was full of French and US dollar bills, and underneath was a layer of shining gold bars.

"What is Director Dai doing?"

Liang Xiao asked with a frown.

"Feiyu, this is not a small amount of money. It is enough for you to buy a thousand acres of fertile land in Wuhan, a beautiful wife and beautiful concubines, and I know you have a few confidante by your side. These... .The confidante are all very powerful, do you have the heart to let them suffer with you?"

Dai Li laughed and said.

Liang Xiao stood up and carefully looked at the French currency, dollar bills and gold in the wooden box. This amount of money may be a lot of money to Dai Li, but to him who owns Yunnan Baiyao, it seems insignificant.

He shook his head with a slight smile, and said: "What are you doing, Liang's women will take care of them, so I won't bother you to worry about them."

"Don't get me wrong, Fei Yu, Dai definitely didn't mean that. You are well aware that this time the Military Intelligence Department has been upgraded to the Military Command Bureau, and it takes a lot of money to manage the situation up and down. This should be Dai's intention."

Dai Li said generously.

How could Liang Xiao understand his intentions.

It's just that there are some things that cannot be regressed.

Since he wants to control the military command bureau, he does not allow the existence of one bureau and two systems.

"Director Dai's kindness is appreciated by Mr. Liang, but these things are fine."

Liang Xiao waved his hand.

"Why is Fei Yu so ignorant? He brought it out, so you can accept it."

Dai Li laughed and said.

Liang Xiao didn't talk nonsense with him, and said: "Director Dai, do you have other things to do? If not, Liang will leave first."

"and many more...."

Dai Li hurriedly called him to stop, and said with a smile: "Fei Yu sit down for a while... I still have something to ask you."

He put his posture very low, and waved to the soldiers to lift the big box down.

"what else"

Liang Xiao said.

"It's like this. Isn't it the Chinese New Year? It's smoggy outside now. Only the city of Wuhan is still calm. I think the annual meeting of our military intelligence department will be held in Wuhan city. When we are called to Wuhan, let’s get together and let the people below get ready. After all, the establishment of the Military Control Bureau will increase the establishment of military intelligence agencies in various places. Letting them go to Wuhan is not only a debriefing, but also a reunion, and it is also a way to convey this to them. good news."

Dai Li said.

"You are the director of the Military Intelligence Department, you have the final say on what to do."

Liang Xiao said with a smile.

"Aren't I asking for your opinion? After all, you will have the final say in the future."

Dai Li said in a rather sassy tone.

That's right, from the period of Lixingshe, he was...a man of his word. Afterwards, the Secret Service Department of Fuxingshe, and even the current Military Intelligence Department, he has always had the final say. Even if Liang Xiao took a shortcut and suddenly emerged, he could not influence to his position in the MIB.

"You're welcome. It's up to you to make up your mind. I have the army in one hand and intelligence in the other. It's impossible to do everything. It's impossible to do everything myself. You will have to do many things in the future."

What Liang Xiao said is also true, as long as Dai Li doesn't engage in one game and two wars, within the scope of his ability, he can still bear it.

"Then this matter is settled. I will send someone to inform you after the time of the annual meeting is fixed."

Dai Li was a little satisfied. If Liang Xiao had been dictating him just now, he would have to think about how to deal with Liang Xiao. After all, at this time, he is still the director of the Military Intelligence Department, and he still has the final say on everything.

"nothing else"

Liang Xiao asked.

"there is none left."

Dai Li shook his head.

"Farewell."
