11 PM.
Liang Xiao paced back and forth in the room. Logically speaking, the Prime Minister should have summoned him early in the morning, but why was there no movement at all?
Just as he was worrying about this matter, Zhao Xin walked into the room and said,"Sir, the Chief has sent someone to pick you up.”
Then, a young man appeared at the door and saluted.""Captain Liang, I'd like to invite you.“
Liang Xiao nodded and instructed Zhao Xin to stay in her room and wait for him to return.
He left the Juntong Guest House and took a car to the military intelligence office.
The Nanjing Military Affairs Headquarters was located in Honggong Temple. It was a large office building covering more than ten acres. It covered intelligence, operations, general affairs, equipment, inspection, translation, and other departments. Each department had its own office space.
Dai Li, the head of the Military Intelligence Division, lived in the last row of the bungalow.
This bungalow was an important place for Dai Li to review documents. Ordinary Commanders were not qualified to enter, and only Dai Li's trusted aides could enter.
The car stopped in front of the bungalow.
Liang Xiao had just alighted from the car when he saw the Prime Minister coming down personally to welcome him. He hurriedly saluted,"I personally welcome you.”
Dai Li held his hand affectionately and smiled."You are my lucky star. You broke the Shanghai Japanese spy team and dug out so many traitors. I should have come to welcome you personally.”
"I'm so sorry. I was able to crack the Shanghai Japanese spy group all thanks to my help.”Liang Xiao knew that Dai Li was definitely not welcoming him because he had uncovered the Shanghai Japanese spy group. There must be some other reason.
Dai Li's face lit up when he heard this. He smiled and said,"Flying Feathers is a role model for our generation of soldiers.”
"I praise you, but I can't take it.”Liang Xiao lowered his stance very much. At least for now, he had to ride on Dai Li's boat to go with the tide.
"Let's go up and talk." Dai Li chuckled as he invited Liang Xiao to Little Red Pavilion's office.
As soon as he entered the office, Dai Li asked his secretary to leave and close the door. His behavior made Liang Xiao nervous. The following conversation must be of great importance.
Dai Li said," The principal has heard about your special operations and intends to establish a special forces unit. None of us have studied special operations before, so the principal has personally appointed you as the general to establish the Shanghai Special Forces Battalion. You will be the lieutenant colonel and commander, under the jurisdiction of the Nanjing Military and Political Bureau. The principal has said that you can choose the people in the special forces battalion, you can choose the weapons, and you can decide the training. There is only one requirement, and that is to establish a special forces battalion similar to the special forces of the country."”
Liang Xiao was shocked. He had already mentally prepared himself, but he was still shocked by Dai Li's words.
Dai Li smiled." The principal has high hopes for you. He hopes that you can utilize what you've learned in China and build a special forces unit loyal to the leader. Of course, you'll still have to take charge of the Shanghai Special Forces.”
"Since the principal and the minister are so fond of you, I will definitely do my best until I die.”Liang Xiao reacted and quickly expressed his loyalty.
Dai Li waved his hand." You don't have to feel too much pressure. During the establishment of the Special Combat Forces, you still have to prioritize the Shanghai intelligence mission. The principal and I are looking forward to you making another contribution.”
"Yes." Liang Xiao was inexplicably happy at this moment. To him, building the first Special Combat Battalion of the Republic of China was both a great honor and a heavy burden.
Dai Li gave him a detailed explanation of the matters regarding the establishment of the special forces. According to the commissioner's words, he could choose any soldiers and equipment he wanted. As long as Liang Xiao took a fancy to them, he would let go of any unit.
After he finished talking about the special forces, Dai Li gave him an order to assassinate Zhang Xiaolin and Yu Zhenjiang. Because these two people had a great reputation among the people, they could not be arrested in secret. They could only be executed in secret. Moreover, no one could suspect the commander.
In the end, Dai Li smiled meaningfully and said,"Baoding, Guangdong, Japan, Southwest, North, and Huangpu are all eyeing Shanghai. Since the Guangdong has done nothing in Shanghai, it's time for Huangpu to take the stage.”
"Don't worry, I won't let you down.”Liang Xiao stood up and said solemnly.
"Feiyu, I trust your abilities.”Dai Li smiled and patted his shoulder."Work hard. The position of Shanghai Station Chief is yours.”
Although he had already guessed it, Liang Xiao was still excited when he heard Dai Li say it himself. The Shanghai station chief was like the Shanghai deputy chief. In terms of power, he had more power than the Shanghai chief. Of course, if he could become the Shanghai station chief, it would be the beginning of the nightmare of the Japanese spy organization in Shanghai.
After Dai Li told him some confidential news, he left the military intelligence headquarters and returned to the Juntong Guest House.
The first thing Liang Xiao did when he returned was to bring his secretary and driver to visit his teacher, General Zhang.
General Zhang was his mentor during his time at Huangpu Military Academy. He had supervised him a lot and arranged his future for him after he graduated. If Dai Li had not appeared out of nowhere, he would have been promoted to lieutenant colonel in the second half of this year according to the route General Zhang had planned for him.
Although he had gone astray from General Zhang's path, he still ended up with the same goal.
Moreover, he was now a lieutenant colonel, a rank higher than the official rank.
General Zhang's residence was located on the street next to the military and political department.
Liang Xiao instructed Ma Kuilu to drive the car to the entrance of the Zhang Manor and stop. He brought Zhao Xin to buy some desserts and fruits nearby as gifts.
General Zhang had a quiet personality and did not like to accept gifts, especially gold and antiques. He had very high expectations for his students. They could come to visit him, but they were not allowed to buy gifts that were more than two yuan.
Therefore, Liang Xiao spent two dollars to buy a bunch of fruits and desserts to visit his mentor.
The old butler of the Zhang family knew him and smiled when he saw him."Xiao Liang is here. The general was still talking about you this morning. He said that now that your wings have hardened, you won't come to Nanjing anymore.”
Liang Xiao smiled,"Old housekeeper, you must be joking. Feiyu came to Nanjing for business. After business, he came to visit his teacher."”
"Quickly go to the study. There are seven or eight of your classmates and friends here. They are discussing military affairs with the general.”The old butler smiled.
"Oh, since we're discussing the military situation, I won't go in. I'll wait outside. It won't be too late for me to go in when Teacher is free.”Liang Xiao rejected the old butler's suggestion. He knew his own limits. Now that he was the commander of the Special Forces, and the commander was a hated existence in the army, he didn't want to see his former colleagues look at him with disdain.
At this moment, a young officer walked out and looked at Liang Xiao. He laughed and said,""It really is you, brother Feiyu."
"Ziheng." Liang Xiao greeted him with a smile. This young officer was called Lu Ziheng. He was in the same batch as him and was also his teacher's student.
Lu Ziheng carried the rank of major and his gaze stopped on Liang Xiao. Seeing that he was wearing a Chinese tunic suit, he smiled and said,"I heard that brother Feiyu is now serving in the military.”
After saying that, he glanced at the beautiful Zhao Xin behind Liang Xiao, thinking to himself, What a beautiful woman. She even has the rank of captain on her shoulder.
"Ziheng must be joking. We are all loyal to the country. There is nothing to regret.”Liang Xiao said indifferently.
