Chapter 378 Killing three birds with one stone
"Lin Qingquan's romantic style was misled by his romantic style."
"The biggest scandal broke out in the battlefield observation group!"
"Only fighting, no friendship!"
The next day, all newspapers in Shanghai published this explosive news.
Grab the news!
Even newspapers that originally had an issue every three days had special editions printed overnight.
Among these newspapers, "Jingbao" is especially sharp in its writing.
In the article, he mercilessly scolded these government officials headed by Lin Qingquan, and then undermined the war of resistance and insulted the heroes in the name of observation.
The scolding was hearty.
This issue of "Jingbao" was sold out as soon as it came out.
It is said that this article was personally written by Yu Daxiong, the editor-in-chief of "Jingbao".
What is even more traitorous is that the "Central Daily News", as the mouthpiece of the government, did not defend itself at all this time and deeply exposed the ugly behavior of the observation group.
"Mr. Wang is no longer the passionate young man who 'brought the knife together' when he was young... Hey, Shao Yuan, your injury healed so quickly? You don't even need the bandage?" Shi Yifeng said teasingly.
Meng Shaoyuan smiled and said: "Director Shi, do you think it's strange or not? As soon as I heard that Lin Qingquan was going to be unlucky, the wound healed overnight."
"When dealing with you in the future, I have to be more careful, so as not to be betrayed by you and count the money for you." Shi Yifeng smiled and shook his head: "Mr. Wang is worried about the prospect of war. He always believes that war will lead to defeat, and peace will lead to survival.
, which is contrary to the country’s principle of persisting in the war of resistance to the end..."
Therefore, he was telling Meng Shaoyuan why the Central Daily News exposed its shortcomings.
Lin Qingquan is not the main target, the real person to deal with is Wang Jingwei.
As Wang Jingwei's confidant, if such a big thing happened to Lin Qingquan, Wang Jingwei would definitely not be able to escape the blame, and the Chairman would naturally have an excuse to deal with him.
Therefore, after doing this, Meng Shaoyuan did not have to worry about being held accountable.
Not only is there no fault, but it is meritorious. It’s just that there is no way to receive public praise, and maybe he will be scolded with a few words of “nonsense”.
He, an insignificant little person, has become a pawn in the hands of that arrogant big shot.
"There are two telegrams from Nanjing." Shi Yifeng deliberately lowered his voice and said: "One is from the office of the Chairman's Attendant, ordering Lin Qingquan and others to be escorted to Nanjing immediately and handed over to Mr. Wang for processing."
"Leave it to Mr. Wang?" Meng Shaoyuan was startled.
Shi Yifeng smiled: "If it were you, what would you do? Lin Qingquan is a hot potato. Your so-called evidence can be said to be conclusive, but it can also be said to be insufficient. Just relying on a prostitute,
The confessions of the two businessmen? And the account book, Lin Qingquan can shift all the blame to Qiu Ningquan, and it has nothing to do with him at all.
The two businessmen said that Lin Qingquan once drank with them. Who saw it? Who can prove it? As for the prostitute, the poems written by Lin Qingquan and the bad things he said about the Sichuan Army are nothing more than bad personal ethics, committee member
How should the commander deal with him? If it’s too severe, people will say he’s making a fuss out of a molehill and deliberately attacks political opponents. If it’s too easy, the whole Sichuan army will be dissatisfied.”
Meng Shaoyuan understood: "So, let Mr. Wang handle it. If Mr. Wang is sentenced lightly, the Sichuan army and people will naturally target Mr. Wang. So even if he is reluctant, he must be sentenced harshly. Especially at the critical moment of the War of Resistance."
At that moment, even if he wanted to make peace again, he would have to put on a show and kill Ma Su with tears."
"It's more than just killing Ma Su with tears." Shi Yifeng said coldly: "Originally, Mr. Wang's faction was not so unified internally. As his favorite general, Lin Qingquan was sentenced severely, which could easily chill his subordinates and even make the Japanese
People will also have doubts about whether he is a true advocate of peace. But even if he is reluctant to let go, he has to take it seriously. Not to mention Shanghai, the whole country is watching this matter, and public opinion is a thing
Ah, sometimes it’s still very useful.”
so complicated.
This is how Meng Shaoyuan felt.
He would rather face the ten Japanese special agencies again than get involved in politics. There are too many things to pay attention to when dealing with a person.
"So, you killed three birds with one stone this time." Shi Yifeng looked at him and said: "First, you have won the favor of the Sichuan Army. Since the Battle of Shanghai, the Sichuan Army has shown strong combat effectiveness. I have a premonition that in the future
You will play a more important role in the war, coordinating the relationship between the Sichuan Army and the Sichuan Army, and you will take the greatest credit."
Don't have any premonitions, it's just the way it is.
Shi Yifeng didn't care what Meng Shaoyuan was thinking: "Secondly, you and I both know what is going on with this battlefield observation group. It's fine now. You can easily let us people go back to Nanjing in despair without making a move.
Go and let Lin Qingquan fall. If anyone wants to mess with your brains in the future, I'm afraid they will have to think twice."
This is actually what Meng Shaoyuan wants to do most.
As the war continues in the future, military commanders will be more active in dealing with the enemy and cannot be stabbed in the back.
Now, with Lin Qingquan's lessons learned, those with ulterior motives may have to think carefully about whether it is worth it.
Instead of overthrowing other military commanders, he himself fell first. The example of Lin Qingquan is there.
"The third point is also the most important point." Shi Yifeng's expression became serious: "I'm afraid you also know the things between the Chairman and Mr. Wang, and there is no need to say it explicitly. Mr. Wang has always been regarded as the orthodox successor of Mr. Sun.
You are self-proclaimed and always thinking of ways to cause trouble for the government. Now that you have suffered such a big loss, the Chairman will remember you."
"The Chairman will remember you."
Although this sentence was not very clear, Shi Yifeng told Meng Shaoyuan there that his future was limitless.
Meng Shaoyuan had a headache. In the future, the fewer such things, the better. Just allowing himself to concentrate on being a spy would be the greatest reward for him.
Kill three birds with one stone?
Don't tell me, Meng Shaoyuan really didn't consider this before.
"Okay, I'm done talking about official business." Shi Yifeng took out a telegram: "As I said just now, there are two telegrams in total. This phone call was given to you by Minister Kong in his personal name."
Meng Shaoyuan received the telegram, and there were only two words on it:
"very good!"
This is already a very high award.
Everyone knows that Kong Xiangxi and the Chairman of the Committee are closely linked to each other. The enemies of the Chairman are naturally the enemies of Minister Kong. If they help the Chairman do things, they will naturally be doing things for him.
However, what Meng Shaoyuan did not expect was that there was not only verbal praise, but also more substantial praise.
Shi Yifeng said slowly: "As for me, I received a call from Minister Kong an hour ago. Shaoyuan, since the war of resistance, you have made great sacrifices. The weapons and ammunition in reserve are depleting quickly. Minister Kong tried every means to help you raise another batch.
Weapons and ammunition are probably on their way here."
Meng Shaoyuan was overjoyed.
This is the real reward.
But before he could express his gratitude, Shi Yifeng continued: "Also, on the eve of the outbreak of the Anti-Japanese War, you established a special fund to provide compensation for staff members who died in the war. Yesterday, your assistant told reporters
I’ve heard all those words, at least thousands of people died in battle, isn’t the special fund very expensive?”
"Yes." Meng Shaoyuan admitted frankly: "I put this money in the company and let it generate money. So far, it is barely enough, but if it continues like this, it will be a bit tight."
"Well, I know this is the truth." Shi Yifeng nodded: "In a war, we are fighting for human lives, but we are also fighting for the country's economy. The war has been fierce so far, and the country's finances are tight, but no matter how tense it is, we cannot treat those martyrs who died ill.
.So Minister Kong decided to allocate another sum of money from the Ministry of Finance to you. I hope you can make good use of it."
"Director Shi, you have to help me thank Director Kong." Meng Shaoyuan said seriously: "I need both money and weapons, and the more, the better. You and Director Kong have really helped me a lot.
"
Someone knocked on the door.
"Come in."
Wu Jingyi walked in and whispered a few words into Meng Shaoyuan's ear. After Meng Shaoyuan heard this, his expression changed: "I know, you go and deal with it first."
As soon as Wu Jingyi left, Shi Yifeng said: "Let me guess, someone from Nanjing is coming and they want to take Qiu Ning away, right?"
"Yes, you guessed it?"
"No need to guess, after you secretly arrested Qiu Ningquan, this must be the ending." Shi Yifeng's voice was a bit sad: "How could Qiu Ningquan be alive? He was alive, and when he arrived in Nanjing, he confessed. Not only was he involved in
Mr. Wang's people, including a large number of people in our government, will be involved, and no one wants to see it.
You see, at most when he gets to Nanjing, Qiu Ningquan will commit suicide out of fear of the crime, and then find two people who are looking after him to take the blame. In this way, everyone can feel at ease. Mr. Wang can kill Lin Qingquan with tears, why would Qiu Ningquan
Can't you die? It's good to die, it's good to die, everyone will be happy to die, and the world will be peaceful."
"Director Shi, I have all the confessions of Qiu Ning." Meng Shaoyuan said carefully: "He is dead, but the things he signed and signed are still there, and they can be made public to the world."
"Shaoyuan, listen to my advice." Shi Yifeng sighed: "Burn those things and never let others know about it. You are a good intelligence worker, but you should not get involved in politics. Otherwise, no one will know about it in the future.
If I can't protect you, I might kill you with tears. Qiu Ningquan's matter ends here."
"I see."
At this moment, Meng Shaoyuan felt that he was so helpless and powerless: "I will hand over all Qiu Ning to the people in Nanjing, and those materials will be destroyed when I return."
"Sad." Shi Yifeng sighed again: "This is the sadness of our group of people."
There are some things that Meng Shaoyuan can express freely, but there are some things that he can't even touch.
