Yang Zhenhua has been waiting there anxiously, his eyes looking at the phone on his desk from time to time.

According to Meng Shaoyuan's thinking, once Kusunoki Shitaka arrives in Shanghai, he will definitely use Yang Zhenhua, an "old friend" of the Japanese Military Academy.

And it will be fast.

All he has to do now is wait patiently.

This was his first cooperation with Meng Shaoyuan, and he kept telling himself that he must make this cooperation perfect to the end.

This will be the best opportunity for you to get out of trouble and rise to the top.

The phone rang several times, and every time Yang Zhenhua picked up the call with hope, he always reported work to him.

This made Yang Zhenhua a little anxious.

The phone rang again.

"Say." Yang Zhenhua answered the phone.

"Chief of Staff, there is a phone number for you. He says he is an old friend of yours."

Yang Zhenhua's heart suddenly jumped: "Put it in."

After a while, a familiar voice came from the other end of the phone: "Is this Mr. Yang Zhenhua?"

As soon as he heard it, Yang Zhenhua recognized the owner of that voice:

Kusunoki Shitaka!

It’s here, it’s finally here!

Meng Shaoyuan's judgment was correct.

Yang Zhenhua controlled his emotions: "Who are you?"

"Mr. Yang, can't you even hear the voice of an old friend? Back then, I spent seven days building a wooden house by myself."

"Ah, you are Nan..." Yang Zhenhua immediately looked surprised: "You are Mr. Nan, where are you? Are you in Shanghai? Me? I am in the suburbs near Shanghai. Okay, okay

, you name a location, I’ll take care of things here, I’ll be there in two hours at most.”

…

In the switchboard room, Meng Shaoyuan has been monitoring the phone calls.

Very good, Kusunoki Shitaka arrived and found Yang Zhenhua right away.

Everything is proceeding according to normal track.

But now, it's time to change this track to the route that we designed.

All the paths Kusunoki Shitaka must take.

"It took me seven days to build a wooden house by myself."

Kusunoki Shitaka said this.

This is something he has always been proud of.

Whenever he finds an opportunity, he will always mention it to people again and again.

This also illustrates a problem. After so many years, it seems that Kusunoki Sanitaka has killed many Chinese agents and transformed himself into the "ace agent" of the Japanese spy industry, but in fact he has never changed.

Only people with low self-esteem will repeatedly mention certain "heroic deeds" in their past.

For truly amazing people, they simply won’t talk about it because they have too many amazing deeds.

Kusunoki Shitaka is still the same person who has low self-esteem and wants to make meritorious deeds and be proud in front of others.

That would be much easier to handle.

…

Shanghai, Public Settlement, Lao Yichang Restaurant.

Yang Zhenhua pushed open the door of the private room.

He immediately recognized his "old friend" who had been waiting there for a long time:

Kusunoki Shitaka!

"Yang Jun!"

"Kusunoki-kun!"

The two shook hands warmly.

Shitaka Kusunoki lowered his voice: "You should call me Mr. Nan. After all, our two countries are at war there."

"Ah, yes." Yang Zhenhua smiled knowingly: "Then you should call me Mr. Yang."

The two sat down with a smile. Kusunoki Shitaka asked the waiter to serve the food, closed the door of the private room, poured the wine, and raised the wine cup: "Mr. Yang, we have not seen each other for many years, and you are getting old. Let me propose a toast to you.

"

"Thank you. You also have gray hair, but you already speak Chinese like a real Northeasterner." Yang Zhenhua smiled and touched the wine cup with him and drank.

After exchanging pleasantries, Kusunoki Sanitaka pretended to be casual and asked: "Mr. Yang, I heard that you serve as the chief of staff of the 78th Division?"

"Yes, but I have been transferred again. Now I am the chief of staff of the Jiangsu-Zhejiang Action Team."

"Jiangsu-Zhejiang Action Team? What kind of organization is that?" Kusunoki Shitaka looked like a military layman.

Yang Zhenhua also showed an attitude of being unsuspecting of his "old friends" and not knowing how to keep military secrets: "When China and Japan go to war, the Jiangsu and Zhejiang action teams mainly cooperate with the main frontal operations. Once Shanghai is not secured, then

Conduct guerrilla warfare nearby."

"I see." Kusunoki Shitaka suddenly realized: "The 78th Division is a regular army, and the Jiangsu-Zhejiang Action Team is a guerrilla force. Doesn't Mr. Yang's transition from the regular army to the guerrilla force mean he was demoted?"

"Do you think I have a future in the 78th Division?" When he said this, Yang Zhenhua immediately became angry, and his expression showed no pretense: "Li Wen, the commander of the 78th Division, always dislikes me and gives me little shoes to wear.

, have you ever heard that the chief of staff of a division is only a lieutenant colonel? Damn it, if you don’t leave me here, I will have my own place!”

These situations are actually under the control of Kusunoki Shitaka.

The reason why he was able to make an appointment with Yang Zhenhua was because he believed that his experiences would easily make him feel dissatisfied and that he would most likely be able to win him over.

"Forget it, don't talk about me anymore." Yang Zhenhua took a sip of wine and said, "What about you, Mr. Nan, what have you been doing these years?"

"It's nothing more than carrying out some tasks in North China and Northeast China." This is a public concession, and I can't do anything to the other party. Kusunoki Shitaka did not hide his identity at all: "You probably don't know that after graduating from the sergeant school, I joined the intelligence service

organize."

"Are you a spy?" Yang Zhenhua was surprised.

"Mr. Yang, my identity does not affect the friendship between you and me." Kusunoki Shitaka smiled: "I dare to come to see you today because I am not afraid that you will betray me. Back then, we established a

A deep friendship developed."

Yang Zhenhua sighed deeply: "Yes, I was your only friend at that time. Mr. Nan, let's get straight to the point, you probably have some mission when you come to Shanghai this time, right? Otherwise, you wouldn't have made an appointment with me as soon as you came.

.”

"You guessed it right, Mr. Yang. Your career is not going well. I can't help you, but at least I can give you some help financially."

Kusunoki Minoru said and put a bag in front of Yang Zhenhua.

"No, no." Yang Zhenhua panicked: "I can't take it, and I can't sell you any information, otherwise, I will become a traitor."

"Mr. Yang." Kusunoki Shitaka pushed the bag forward: "The outcome of the Sino-Japanese War, no matter who wins or loses, it will not affect our friendship. You can regard it as my personal gift. Besides,

Well, people die for money and birds die for food. War is originally an opportunity to make a fortune.

After so many years, you are still only a lieutenant colonel, and now you have been demoted from the regular army to the guerrillas. Do you think there is still hope for promotion? Mr. Yang, you are already over forty. If you don’t seize this time, you will

Think more about yourself, what will happen to your family in the future? Do you really want them to drink the northwest wind?"

Yang Zhenhua hesitated: "But... I am in charge of the guerrillas now, and I don't have any valuable information to provide you."

"It doesn't matter." At this time, Kusunoki Shitaka was sure of victory: "You have been an officer for so many years, so you must know many of your colleagues, right? The kind of colleagues who have a lot of information."

"Let me think about it, let me think about it."

Yang Zhenhua thought there for a long time: "There really is such a person. His name is Li Wenyi. He is a major general counselor of the Military Commission and has access to a large amount of military intelligence. By the way, do you know Li Liejun?"

"I know, of course I know, he is your veteran figure."

"Yes, he is Li Liejun's grandson."

"Oh, is it so?"

Yang Zhenhua nodded and said: "He is thirty-five years old this year. Relying on his grandfather's reputation, he was promoted to major general at the age of thirty. However, for five years, he has been standing still, sorting out information all day long. This man thinks that he

He is very talented in military affairs, and his skills should be put to use on the battlefield. What he lacks is an opportunity."

Kusunoki Shitaka suddenly noticed: "What skills does he have? What are his hobbies?"

"What ability can he have?" Yang Zhenhua smiled disdainfully: "He is nothing more than a playboy who likes to eat, drink, and play. He spends a lot of money in a month, but how can he maintain the salary of a major general? No.

The girl is in a lot of troubles, has a lot of debt, and at the age of thirty-five, she doesn’t even have a wife.”

Very good, this person meets all conditions.

Yang Zhenhua continued: "One time, before the war started, the creditor directly forced him into his office, making him unable to get off the stage. He was reprimanded by his boss. If it weren't for Li Liejun's face, he would have been told to get out.
To be continued...
