Chapter 236 The war begins
People across the country were not aware of the news that a group of traitors had secretly arrived in Shanghai.
Even the two consecutive anti-espionage operations planned by the Shancheng Intelligence Department did not cause any waves in the outside world.
"Even if you die, you cannot die secretly. You must be tried as a traitor in front of the whole country!" This is also the reason why Ye Feng did not act immediately.
In the places most tightly controlled by the Japanese devils, even if a big traitor was shot, it would probably not cause much response.
His goal was to punish the traitors who betrayed the country in public.
"Hey, the Shancheng boss who planned the assassination failed in the end."
Ye Feng had read this history in his previous life, so he certainly knew who commanded the assassination.
He was his former teacher in Shancheng, the top boss of Shancheng’s intelligence department, and the “Director Dai” who frightened countless people!
Ye Feng, the former teacher, was remotely controlling the assassination in Shanghai from Hong Kong Island.
No wonder it failed.
In fact, many people would wonder why the Shancheng agent, who killed people at a rapid speed, did not kill the big traitor.
Why is that?
It is said that the main reason was inaccurate intelligence and the traitor's good luck.
There were five actions in total.
On two occasions, the intelligence was incorrect, and on the last three occasions, various accidents occurred frequently, resulting in mission failure.
Generally speaking, if you are targeted by Shancheng agents, there is basically no chance of survival. What’s more, in order to assassinate a big traitor, even the spy chief of Shancheng was involved, but in the end, they failed to catch him. This is not good luck.
According to the historical process.
The traitor's good luck did not accompany him throughout his life. About five years later, after he fell down the stairs, his old illness relapsed. He was diagnosed with "multiple myeloma" by the Japanese military doctor and was secretly sent to Japan for treatment.
He died the following year due to illness and eventually died in a foreign land. He was later buried in Meihua Mountain in Jinling.
After the Japanese surrendered, the Shancheng side was also very angry and sent people to blow up the grave of the traitor and transport Wang's coffin and body to the crematorium for cremation.
From then on, as a traitor who sold out his compatriots, his crime of treason was forever nailed to the pillar of shame in history.
In this life, Ye Feng was very sure that the big traitor would not have such good luck.
"Tonight, after night falls, it will be the countdown to your death, the big traitor!" Ye Feng has already come up with a foolproof plan in his mind.
However, before shooting the big traitor, he still has to make some preparations. At the very least, the death of the biggest traitor in the country should be announced to the whole country, right?
We should let our fellow Chinese people have fun too, right?
After leaving the Japanese community, Ye Feng called Ling Wei and the two entered the French Concession.
Along the way, Ye Feng also expressed his plan, using the power of public opinion to completely disgrace the big traitor. At the same time, he also wanted to expose to the people of the whole country the fact that this big traitor had signed an agreement that was humiliating and detrimental to the country.
Unfortunately, during this era, public opinion in Shanghai was firmly controlled by the Japanese devils.
If you want to make the matter of traitors a hot topic in Shanghai, the best way is to use the channels of the foreign devils.
As for whether the foreigners will help?
It doesn’t matter, as long as the money is enough and in place, as foreigners who have come across the ocean from a capitalist country, how can we go against money?
"It's fine to spend money, but I'm worried that the money we bring won't satisfy the appetite of the foreigners?"
Ling Wei smiled bitterly. Their party organization's undercover agency in Shanghai could not compare to the wealthy intelligence department in Shancheng.
Many times, the funds for the activities of party members are raised and sponsored by patriotic people.
Sometimes, you have to solve the funding problem yourself.
Everyone knows that those foreigners are a bunch of greedy people who are blinded by money. Ling Wei feels that the money she has is likely to be looked down upon by them.
Ye Feng said, "Don't worry, I have already got dozens of small yellow croakers from Lao Liu, which is enough."
Ling Wei immediately said in dissatisfaction, "Comrade Ye Feng, you must pay attention to the party's discipline. Even if we are working behind enemy lines, we must abide by the party's discipline and cannot accept money from others without reason. You are violating the discipline."
Ye Feng said, "Last time, I helped to destroy the Dulong Gang, and I also stood behind them and helped Lao Liu take over all the Dulong Gang's businesses. This money is the reward I deserve. What's wrong with that?"
Ling Wei was speechless. She also understood that in special times, one must respond and handle problems flexibly.
Afterwards, using money to pave the way, Ye Feng and his companions successfully met Campbell, the highest authority in the French Concession.
We exchanged a few pleasantries when we first met.
Without saying a word, Ye Feng laid out all the small yellow croakers and stated his conditions.
Campbell was also happy. He took the money, agreed to the conditions, and guaranteed that everything would be done according to Ye Feng's requirements.
"Mr. Ye, if there are such good things in the future, please remember to come to me." Campbell smiled happily. This guy was really desperate for money. Because of the strong intervention of the Japanese, their days in the concession were not easy. Many secret businesses were almost occupied by the Japanese.
"There is indeed a good thing, but I don't know if you dare to take the risk?" Ye Feng said ambiguously.
"Really? Mr. Ye, please go ahead." Campbell said impatiently.
"I plan to rob the Japanese business, and I just happen to be short of some manpower. Do you dare to do it?" Ye Feng looked at the other party and continued, "Don't worry, I won't let you fight with the Japanese devils openly. All you have to do is to help out and fire a few shots to attract some attention. After the matter is done, I will give you 50% of the profits."
"Robbery?"
Campbell asked without hesitation, "Is it a maritime business? How much profit is there?"
Ye Feng replied, "It is the nine dock businesses in Shanghai that the Japanese are in charge of."
As for profits, there is no need to state them explicitly.
Although Campbell was tempted, he still said, "It can be done. Moreover, I can also bring in people from the British and French concessions. Because we have to take risks, our two concessions want 70% of the profits this time."
Ye Feng immediately shook his head to refuse, saying that he was not working alone and had also brought together a lot of people.
For example, contacting other chambers of commerce, gangs, and even participating in the hidden intelligence of the mountain city.
There are too many wolves and too little meat. Each faction must share the profits, so it is impossible to give only 70%.
Campbell argued, "We can deploy a thousand troops from our two concessions, and our firepower configuration, sophisticated weapons, and personnel combat capabilities far exceed yours. 70% is really not much."
Campbell was really tempted. After all, Ye Feng was able to get so many forces to join in this operation.
Even if it fails.
The target that the Japanese devils wanted to target was not their foreign concessions.
After all, on the surface, it is impossible for the Japanese to have a head-on conflict with the great powers of Britain and France.
The risk is not that big, but the profit return is terrifyingly high. It is simply a business that makes a lot of money!
The most important point.
Ye Feng revealed his identity.
Super agent.
He had fought the Japanese single-handedly several times and shot and killed more than a thousand of the Japanese super agents.
With such a great achievement, Campbell would not think that Ye Feng was talking nonsense.
In the end, after some bargaining between the two, Ye Feng, with a look of heart bleeding, was willing to give up 60%.
"Mr. Campbell, I hope we can have a pleasant cooperation!" Ye Feng still had a forced smile.
After leaving.
Ling Wei couldn't help but speak up and said, "You just now, were you secretly setting a trap for Campbell?" Ling Wei was naturally clear about Ye Feng's plan. The action in more than ten days was not to rob the Japanese's dock business at all, but to prepare for a big fight and kill as many Japanese troops as possible.
Ye Feng smiled and said, "Of course there are benefits. Once the war starts, the goods piled up by the devils at the docks will also be a fortune. If Campbell wants money, then he can do it himself. Of course, he must have the ability to fight against the devils."
Another point.
The war begins.
Once the foreign troops in the British and French Concessions entered the game, it would be impossible for them to withdraw easily.
