Chapter 296: Top-Secret Intelligence Obtained by Zheng Chaoyang
Zheng Chaoshan lifted a corner of the curtain and peeked at the street below. The dwarfs remained where they were, occasionally casting their eyes toward the room where he lived.

"Well, he is probably monitoring me, but it doesn't matter. I have been under their surveillance since the first day I arrived in Hong Kong."

"Besides, I let them follow me on purpose. Otherwise, it would be wishful thinking for them to follow me with just these few pieces of information."

Zheng Chaoshan asked in confusion: "Brother, what's going on? What happened that made you contact us urgently?"

Zheng Chaoshan motioned for them to sit down by the window. He said calmly, "Don't be nervous. They are just following and monitoring me. I am not in much danger at the moment. Let me tell you what happened from the beginning..."

After the train arrived in Shanghai, Zheng Chaoyang and his brother ended their journey together and then parted at the train station.

From then on, they embarked on their own paths in life, like two trains running on two tracks, each heading for a different destination.

Zheng Chaoshan followed the instructions of the "migratory bird" and went all the way south to Hong Kong, where he lived for more than a month. During this period, he received an order from the "pseudo Ministry of National Defense Intelligence Bureau" of Taiwan, asking him to go to Taiwan immediately.

Taiwan’s “pseudo Intelligence Bureau of the Ministry of National Defense” is actually the predecessor of the “Secret Bureau of the Ministry of National Defense”, and the predecessor of the “Secret Bureau of the Ministry of National Defense” is the “Military Intelligence Bureau”.

The first director of the "Military Intelligence Bureau" was Chen Lifu, and Dai Li was the director of the second department of the bureau. After Chen Lifu's first department was expanded into the Investigation Bureau of the Executive Committee, Dai Li was promoted to deputy director of the Military Intelligence Bureau! The director of the "Military Intelligence Bureau" was concurrently the director of the chief attendant office of the Kuomintang senior officials!
During the period when Dai Li was deputy director of the Military Intelligence Bureau, the number of internal staff reached more than 1,000, and the number of registered field staff reached more than 50,000! This did not include the bandits and hooligans recruited by the Military Intelligence Bureau spies!
After Dai Li's death, Zheng Jiemin became the director! Later it was renamed the "Secret Bureau of the Ministry of National Defense"! Zheng Jiemin lost to Mao Renfeng in the KMT power struggle! Mao Renfeng became the director of the "Secret Bureau"!
After the KMT organizations were completely withdrawn to Taiwan, the "Secret Bureau" was renamed the "Ministry of National Defense Intelligence Bureau"! Also known as the "Military Intelligence Bureau" with Zhang Yanyuan as the director! Later, it was completely controlled by Mr. Chiang!
Later, Zheng Chaoshan followed the order of the "Military Intelligence Bureau" and reported to the "Military Intelligence Bureau" headquarters in Wanwan.

The "Military Intelligence Bureau" is also called "Zhishan Villa" because its headquarters is located at Zhishan Rock at the foot of Yangming Mountain in Wanbei.

During this period, Taiwan was responsible for collecting political, military, and economic intelligence on the mainland. The Military Intelligence Bureau was the main force, and its intelligence-gathering capabilities were relatively strong.

Since Zheng Chaoyang had retreated from the mainland, the Military Intelligence Bureau did not trust him at first, and he was put under strict control as soon as he arrived in Yangmingshan.

They conducted an in-depth investigation and review of him to ensure that he had not betrayed the "Party-State".

Here, Zheng Chaoshan experienced severe torture and mental fatigue bombardment day and night.

Whenever Zheng Chaoshan was about to collapse, he would think of his murdered wife Qin Zhaodi and the unborn child in her belly.

These memories provide him with the strength to persevere, especially when he faces difficulties and challenges.

He suffered an excruciating pain in his heart, which was a thousand times more painful than the physical and mental torture inflicted by his enemies.

However, it was with this strong perseverance that he finally persevered.

He successfully rebuilt trust with the enemy, and due to the rich experience accumulated during the "Military Control Commission" period, he received much attention from Taiwan's "Military Intelligence Bureau".

After that, he was appointed as an instructor in a spy training class under the "Military Intelligence Bureau". This training class was set up for the mainland, usually held once or twice a year, with an average of about 200 people per session.

The courses are divided into "basic" and "specialized". "Specialized" training includes special techniques such as intelligence gathering, file preparation, disguise and transformation. Students must use aliases and receive special combat training such as fighting, shooting, parachuting, radio communication, secret writing, and code breaking.

Zheng Chaoshan worked as an instructor in this training class for three years. Since the work of the training class was mainly training-related, he did not come into contact with valuable intelligence, so he did not try to contact the mainland.

During these three years, he pretended to focus on his work and performed his duties diligently in imparting knowledge and skills to the trainees.

His performance was noticed by the top brass of the Military Intelligence Bureau, who gradually relaxed their vigilance against him.

It was not until 59 that Zheng Chaoshan was appointed director of the third department of the "Intelligence Bureau" and officially entered the core leadership of the "Intelligence Bureau".

Relying on his own strength and wisdom, he gradually emerged and eventually got this important position.

Zheng Chaoshan had the opportunity to get in touch with some important intelligence about Taiwan. During this period, he collected a lot of useful intelligence and secretly found ways to leak it to the underground party in Taiwan.

Ten days ago, Zheng Chaoshan once again obtained important intelligence. This time the intelligence turned out to be a major operation against the mainland organized and planned by Baldy himself.

This top-secret plan, called the "Forward Base Plan", is an operation jointly carried out by multiple departments of Taiwan. It is led by the "Military Intelligence Bureau" and is being prepared for implementation.

Entering the 1960s, Baldy was unwilling to accept complete defeat, so he put "counterattack" on the agenda and gave it priority.

They planned to send batches of spies to the mainland in the hope of establishing a number of "XX bases" to cooperate with the armed "counterattack" operations.

The "Military Intelligence Bureau" plans to send 50 groups of more than 700 XX to Guangdong, Fujian and other coastal provinces by sea and air to establish secret bases...

Zheng Chaoshan took pictures of these detailed plans and personnel lists with a miniature camera, and he was eager to convey this information to the country as soon as possible.

He firmly believed that the country could prevent the plots of enemy spies and firmly believed that the enemies would be defeated.

However, if a large number of enemy agents infiltrate the mainland, the damage caused to the country and the people would be incalculable.

This information was extremely critical, so unusually, he decided to contact the mainland in person to ensure the accurate transmission of the information.

However, as an intelligence officer, it was not so easy for him to travel around casually. Without a clear reason, he could not freely enter and leave Taiwan.

Especially at this critical moment when the plan was about to be implemented, his sudden departure would undoubtedly arouse the enemy's suspicion.

He was extremely anxious to find a way to leave Wanwan, when suddenly a piece of news in the United Daily News caught his attention.

A message was published above saying that an international medical conference will be held in Hong Kong in the near future, and the conference sincerely invites medical experts to attend the event.

Zheng Chaoshan suddenly had an idea. He was a doctor of medicine and had served as the chief of surgery at Union Hospital. He had profound medical knowledge and was a typical medical enthusiast.

If he applied to go to Hong Kong to attend the meeting with this reason, the enemy would definitely not be too suspicious. As long as he arrived in Hong Kong, it would be much easier for him to contact the country.

However, he also knew that his whereabouts after he was released would be closely monitored.

As expected, he got the opportunity to attend a medical conference in Hong Kong, and the Military Intelligence Bureau did not have any doubts about his actions. He only needed to report his whereabouts to the bureau at any time.

As soon as he arrived in Hong Kong, someone started following him. Although those people looked like "short mules", Zheng Chaoyang knew clearly who was sending them to secretly observe him.

Zheng Chaoshan didn't care about these things. He looked for opportunities to put on makeup, cleverly avoiding the sight of these people, and then secretly sent his contact information to the Xinhua News Agency's mailbox.

…………

Having said that, Zheng Chaoshan took off his leather shoes, unhooked them from the heels, and took out a roll of microfilm.

He carefully handed the film to Zheng Chaoyang and solemnly warned him: "Chaoyang, this film contains some very important information. You must send it back to China safely."

Zheng Chaoyang took it carefully, frowned and said, "Brother, aren't you going back with us?"

Zheng Chaoshan smiled slightly, shook his head and said: "My mission is not yet complete. When the motherland is unified in the future, we two brothers will definitely be reunited one day."

When Liu Zhiye heard this, he felt sad. He knew that the great cause of unification would take decades to achieve, and perhaps the two brothers would never be able to meet again.

This feeling of regret made him feel blocked in the heart and his nose was sore.

Zheng Chaoyang said with red eyes: "Brother, if the enemy's future plans fail and they know that it was a leak of intelligence, won't your situation be very dangerous?"

Zheng Chaoshan smiled and comforted him: "You are already a mature man, why do you still cry easily like a child?"

"Don't worry, your brother is a Phoenix, he won't be easily discovered by the enemy."

"It's really hard, how can I run?"

Zheng Chaoyang is not some ignorant young man. He was born in this industry and knows the dangers involved. If one is not careful, one can end up in an irretrievable situation.

"Brother, come back with us! You have done enough..."

Zheng Chaoshan restrained his smile and squeezed Zheng Chaoyang's shoulder a little harder. "This is far from enough. I have now infiltrated the upper echelons of the enemy's intelligence department. I cannot give up easily."

"I believe that as long as we keep working hard, we will be able to obtain more intelligence, which will reduce huge losses for the country..."

He showed strong determination and confidence, which moved Liu Zhiye beside him. Zheng Chaoyang wanted to persuade him again, but Zheng Chaoshan stopped him. He immediately changed the subject: "Chaoyang, after so many years, are you married?"

Zheng Chaoyang nodded and said, "Brother, I'm already married, and my partner is..."

Zheng Chaoshan stopped him and said, "Don't tell me, let me guess and see if I'm right!"

"She's Bai Ling, right?"

Zheng Chaoyang burst into laughter and replied, "Yes, it's her. We have been married for ten years and our child is eight years old this year."

Zheng Chaoshan said with relief: "Okay, that's good. I was optimistic about you two from the beginning."

"By the way, is the baby a boy or a girl?"

Zheng Chaoyang said: "It's a boy, his name is Zheng Xiaoqi, he started school this year, his academic performance is not bad, hehe..."

Zheng Chaoshan's eyes were red, and tears were glistening in his eyes, but he tried hard not to let them flow out. After a while, he slowly said, "That's good, I can finally rest assured. Our family has a successor, and we can live up to our father."

Zheng Chaoyang knew what his brother was thinking, and said with concern: "Brother, after all these years, haven't you found another one?"

Zheng Chaoshan said sadly: "I don't want to do that anymore. Following me means you'll be living in jeopardy. I don't want to make the same mistake again..."

"That's good, so I don't have to worry about anything."

Zheng Chaoyang looked at his brother with pity in his heart. He wanted to advise his brother: "Brother, sister-in-law has been gone for so many years, why are you still so persistent? Let go of the past, life is still so long, ..."

Zheng Chaoshan said nothing more, but just smiled and shook his head. Then, he took off the mutton-fat jade Guanyin pendant from his neck and stroked it carefully.

Then, he decisively handed the pendant to Zheng Chaoyang and said, "This is something my father left me. Today I am giving it to my nephew whom I have never met. Just treat it as a gift from me, your uncle!"

Zheng Chaoyang knew about this mutton-fat jade Guanyin pendant. It was one of the relics given to the two brothers by their father before he passed away.

The elder brother Zheng Chaoshan received a mutton-fat jade Guanyin pendant, and the younger brother Zheng Chaoyang received a Swiss perpetual calendar watch. These two precious gifts were their father’s favorites, representing his deep love for his children.

From then on, brother Zheng Chaoshan wore this mutton-fat jade Guanyin pendant carefully and would not let anyone touch it, treating it as his life.

Today, he actually took out the pendant and gave it to his nephew, which gave Zheng Chaoyang an ominous feeling.

"Brother, you..."

Zheng Chaoshan shook his head, indicating that there was no need to refuse, "Chaoyang, time is running out, we don't need to waste time."

“You need to hurry back and set up defenses,” he added, a sense of urgency in his tone.

"Also, you two have been here for a while, so you should leave as soon as possible. Don't stay too long to avoid arousing their suspicion."

Liu Zhiye looked at Zheng Chaoshan, then nodded carefully and reminded him: "Brother Zheng, the intelligence is very important. Considering the current situation, we will return to China immediately. Please be careful and be cautious after the matter is over."

Zheng Chaoshan deeply appreciated Liu Zhiye's decisive attitude. After hugging Liu Zhiye, he expressed his gratitude from the bottom of his heart: "Thank you, comrade!"

Liu Zhiye's heart moved, and he asked, "Brother Zheng, how can we keep in touch with you in the future?"

Zheng Chaoshan was silent for a moment, then suggested: "If you are interested in contacting me in the future, you can consider publishing a recruitment notice in the Ta Kung Pao.

Specifically, you need to post an advertisement looking for a family doctor, requiring applicants with experience studying in the United States or Germany to be given priority, and leave your contact number. "

"When I see it, I will call you back. The codeword is, is it okay if I don't have a diploma?"

"Your reply was that it would be best if you had surgical experience. Remember that!"

Liu Zhiye and Zheng Chaoyang nodded carefully and wrote down the code.

Liu Zhiye looked at Zheng Chaoyang and said, "Old Zheng, let's go. If we're too late, the [Dwarf Mule] down there will get suspicious!"

Zheng Chaoyang reunited with his brother whom he had not seen for many years, but they had to say goodbye again after a short reunion. He was reluctant to leave and looked very sad.

Seeing this, Zheng Chaoshan hugged him and said, "Chaoyang, go quickly. Don't worry, we two brothers will meet again one day."

Zheng Chaoyang shed tears again, nodded vigorously, and said: "Brother, you must be careful and don't forget what you just said, otherwise I will not forgive you."

"Zhiye, let's go!"

Liu Zhiye and Zheng Chaoshan nodded and said goodbye to each other, then they walked out of room 201.

Afterwards, they disguised themselves as police officers and went to other rooms to check ID cards before leaving the hotel.

After the two of them came to a deserted place to change clothes, Zheng Chaoyang said to Zhiye: "You are good at fighting, you will keep these films in case of any accidents."

Liu Zhiye took the film and put it in his pocket, actually putting it into the space to ensure that nothing would go wrong.

Seeing Zheng Chaoyang's slightly melancholy face, Liu Zhiye consoled him, "Old Zheng, you don't need to worry too much. Only a few people know your brother's identity, and he has only a single line of contact with us, so the risk of being exposed is not high."

"As for the intelligence he passed back, if we plan carefully, we can effectively cover up the risk of him being exposed."

At this point, Zheng Chaoyang could only nod and say, "I hope so!"

"By the way, Zhiye, how are we going to get back? Are we going to sneak back along the same route?"

Liu Zhiye said helplessly: "It seems that this is the only way. Let's try to go back quietly. Otherwise, the noise will be too loud and your brother may be exposed."

He now regretted his behavior of coveting those Hong Kong dollars. He hoped that those good-for-nothings simply thought that this was an ordinary theft case and did not think deeply about it.

"Let's go. Let's leave here first. We'll take a bus to the New Territories tomorrow morning, and then cross the mountains back to Bao'an..."

As a result, the figures of the two quickly blended into the night.

------

The next day.

Liu Zhiye and Zheng Chaoyang took a bus to the New Territories. They climbed a nearby peak and looked back, only to see Hong Kong Island looming in the distance. Liu Zhiye thought silently in his heart: "Goodbye, Hong Kong, we will definitely see each other again."

Let’s talk about Nathan Road Police Station.

Ma Fengjiu, the head of the subordinate of Chief Chinese Detective Lui Lok, came to Nathan Road Police Station in person early in the morning to collect money for his boss.

Feng Jiu, whose real name is Feng Zhiqiang, was once a big boss of the "East Union Society" and was nicknamed "Shar Pei Dog". He has three brothers, all of whom are Lui Lok's "royal rent collectors".

Inspector Zeng Qirong came out with sleepy eyes and greeted Feng Jiu with a tired face. He had been partying all night last night and did not fall asleep until midnight.

From a distance, Zeng Qirong opened his arms as if to hug her and said, "Ah Jiu, long time no see!"

Feng Jiu hugged him with a smile and said, "Mr. Zeng, you are still as energetic as ever. That's great."

Zeng Qirong laughed loudly upon hearing this and said, "Ah Jiu, have you had your meal yet? Do you want to join us?"

Feng Jiu refused and said, "Mr. Zeng, Brother Le's matter is more important. Thank you!"
