The secret war is silent

Under the desk lamp, Luo Yao was writing a document, providing guidance on work precautions and disciplinary issues during this trip to the front lines of Hunan and Jiangxi.

The front line is different from the rear. Various accidents or dangers can happen at any time. He needs to think of the problem from the front.

Dong Dong...

"Come in." It was so late, and you didn't need to listen to the footsteps to know that there was no one else but Gong Hui.

"I made a glass of milk for you. Drink it before going to bed." Gong Hui walked in wearing pajamas and a coat, holding an enamel cup in her hand.

It's early autumn, and the temperature in the mountains is low. At night, the temperature is much lower than during the day. You have to cover yourself with a quilt when sleeping, otherwise you will easily catch a cold at night.

"Thank you, leave it there, I'll drink it later." Luo Yao nodded, still writing quickly to avoid interrupting his thoughts.

"Brother Yao, when we go to the front line of Hunan and Jiangxi this time, why don't you let me lead the team and you stay?" Gong Hui said, leaning on the table and standing at Luo Yao's elbow.

"You can not?"

"Why is it not working? Do you think I am inferior to you in any way?"

"This time we went to the front line of Hunan and Jiangxi. We have a group of about thirty people. We removed people from three institutions, mainly the secret interpretation room. Do you know why?" Luo Yao raised his head and put down the pen in his hand and asked. .

"I don't know, I just don't want you to risk it."

"It's not dangerous to stay if you take risks. Japanese planes have never left." Luo Yao was a little moved, but still said, "Furthermore, if we lose the secret code decipherer, we will not go directly to the battlefield, so the risk factor is not the same. It’s not high, but when it gets to that point, we will be the first ones to withdraw.”

"Then take me there!"

"No, you and I are gone. What will happen to the secret interpretation room? I'm gone. I still need you, Lao Chi and Lao Qi to help me stabilize my home and prevent some people from taking the opportunity to make small moves." Luo Yao said, "This Inside, your position is the most important, and they all put you first.”

"But I don't want to be separated from you." Gong Hui rarely showed the expression of a child. Although her feelings for Luo Yao were always undisguised, and Luo Yao was used to it, the string in his heart had never been broken. After a while, his feelings for Gong Hui stopped being favorable.

But at this moment, he saw a woman who cared for him wholeheartedly. It was a touching feeling, and it also made his heart palpitate inexplicably.

"Xiaohui, we are soldiers. What is the duty of a soldier?"

"obey orders."

"Yes, obey the order, the national crisis is at the forefront, and all the love between children must be put aside. Killing the enemy and serving the country is the only thing we have to do." Luo Yaodao said, "The secret interpretation room can achieve its current achievements, that is What we have worked hard to create, I am not a lover of power, I just don’t want it to be destroyed in the hands of some people, do you understand?”

"Then you promise me to pay attention to safety and come back safely."

"Well, don't worry, go to bed early."

…

Before getting the personnel list, Luo Yao was called by Mao Qiwu for a meeting early the next morning, and he didn't even say anything about the meeting.

When he rushed to the venue in a hurry, the large conference room was already full of people.

This was the first time Luo Yao saw so many generals.

All in one place.

Obviously this was a high-level meeting, and he saw a dedicated stenographer.

Luo Yao didn't know many people, but his boss Dai knew him. He was wearing a major general uniform and sitting among a group of generals, inconspicuously.

There are three stars on the leader's shoulders. I have never seen him in person, but he looks familiar.

Then several lieutenant generals and major generals.

There is also an acquaintance, that is, Mao Zongxiang, the director of the confidential room, with the rank of major general, and Tang Zong, the leader of the sixth group of the attendant room, military commander.

Wei Daming was also there, but I didn't recognize the others.

Luo Yao couldn't understand why so many big guys were having a meeting and calling him, a little shrimp, here for a visit.

"Are you Luo Youning?" The general didn't look very tall, but he looked very elegant. He had a light smile on his face and looked very easy-going.

"Sir, this is my humble duty."

"I have heard of your name a long time ago, but I have never seen it!"

"Sir, you are ridiculous. Who are you, sir?" Luo Yaozhen didn't know how to reply. He didn't even know who the other party was.

"Bai Jiansheng."

"Hello, Sir Bai." Luo Yao immediately put his legs together and stood at attention, giving a military salute.

Finally, I know who the big boss is in front of me. Bai Jiansheng, the think tank of the Gui family, is known as "Little Zhuge". This guy will be very famous in later generations.

"You're good young man, sit down and talk." Bai Jiansheng waved his hand.

Luo Yao glanced at Dai Yunong uneasily and found that he nodded slightly at him, so he found a seat at the back of the auditorium and sat down.

Due to his position, he was not qualified to sit directly on the table. Of course, there was no chair for him, so just sitting on the side and listening was already a big deal.

This is a high-level intelligence meeting.

After Luo Yao sat down, the meeting began. This would be intelligence work for the Japanese army's next attack on the Hunan and Jiangxi regions.

The detection and deciphering of the Japanese military's secret telegram communications was a very important aspect.

Luo Yao was not qualified to speak, so he could only sit down and listen with his ears and memorize it with his mind. Also taking notes with him was the female stenographer.

The meeting lasted for more than two hours, and the focus was on the collection of intelligence on Japan, especially the collection of intelligence outside the battlefield, food, grass, military supplies and medicine, as well as the mobilization of Japanese troops in other adjacent areas, etc.

…

"director."

"It's strange, why would such a high-level intelligence meeting call you to attend?" Dai Yunong chuckled and said to Luo Yao, who was still confused.

"The students are really a little confused."

"Although your rank is not high, you are involved in the military and diplomatic secrets of the party and state. You will be qualified to participate in such intelligence meetings in the future." Dai Yunong explained.

"Yes, Director." Luo Yao was secretly happy. Being able to participate in such an intelligence meeting meant that he would be able to master more and more secrets.

When he entered the conference room door just now, he saw Wei Daming's face not looking good, probably because of this.

"Intelligence is the key to winning the war. This time the code room deciphered the Japanese military's secret communications, this time it may be a key factor in our victory in the Hunan and Jiangxi regions. You Ning, I recommend you to be the leader of the detection team. I spent a lot of effort." Dai Yunong said solemnly.

"Thank you, director, for your training. The students will definitely live up to expectations!" Luo Yao said excitedly. In fact, he was very satisfied to be able to go to the battlefield. As for the leader of the detection team, he had never thought about it. Firstly, he did not have enough qualifications and prestige. Secondly, , and he had no experience in dealing with frontline generals. There would be obstacles in communication, which would affect the transmission of intelligence, so this time, he went with a learning attitude.

Of course, he also knew that the interrogation team jointly formed by multiple departments this time may have the idea of ​​​​integrating the code deciphering agency.

But it is not shown now.

It is even estimated that many people below are not aware of this.

"This time it's a temporary withdrawal. Time is tight. Is there any problem with your personnel there?" Dai Yunong asked.

"There should be no problem. I made arrangements for the selection of personnel last night." Luo Yaodao said, "This time, in addition to us, there are also people from the Military Commission's Secret Telegram Research Group and the Ministry of Military Affairs' 47 Station. I'm afraid that they will Don’t listen to me.”

"You are the team leader. If they don't listen to you, you can naturally punish them. Don't worry." Dai Yunong said, "You have to be reasonable."

"Yes, Director, the students have remembered it."

"This time you are going to the Hunan-Jiangxi region as a contact group of the field service corps. Your group is code-named 'X', and the call sign I use to contact you is your code-name 'Diting'..." Dai Yunong explained to Luo Yao in detail The mission said that he wanted to conduct remote control, which was necessary.

"Director, what about the detection equipment and the funds for this mission?"

"The equipment will be taken out by the Ministry of Military and Political Affairs. You don't have to worry about this. The funds will be provided by the Military Commission. After all of you eat, drink and eat in Hunan and Jiangxi, the Ninth War Zone will provide it. You go back and prepare quickly. It is estimated that you will be able to do it in no more than three days. Let’s go.” Dai Yunong said.

"Yes, director." Luo Yao agreed. .

"Is there anything else?" Dai Yunong looked up and saw that Luo Yao hadn't left, so he asked.

"Director, I want to borrow someone?"

"Tell me, who are you attracted to?" Dai Yunong chuckled.

"Li Fu, his mission to the Air Defense Command has been completed, and it's time for him to come back. I want him to accompany me to Hunan and Jiangxi this time?" Luo Yao said.

Dai Yunong thought about it for a moment: "Okay, brother Dahu, you have a good relationship with Li Fu. It's good that you can think of him."

"Thank you, director." Luo Yao saluted happily.

"Do a good job." Dai Yunong opened the drawer and took out a pair of "Colonel" collar badges. "I originally planned to find an opportunity to announce the promotion order, but now it seems that it is too late. Anyway, your promotion order has been approved. , just give it to you.”

Dai Yunong personally replaced Luo Yao with the colonel's collar badge. (There were no epaulettes at this period, and they were only introduced after the American military uniforms were changed later)

…

Although he is a colonel, he is much faster than many people, and his military rank in the military command department is also mentioned as lieutenant colonel. It can be said that he surpasses most students in the temporary training class (originally those who are on-the-job training are not counted, there are many People are school officials before they enter the class).

"I'm looking for Deputy Director Shen Yu."

"Sir, please wait a moment." The new guard seemed to have never seen Luo Yao, but he recognized the rank of colonel on the collar, so he went in to report quickly.

"Oh, in the blink of an eye, you are already a colonel, on the same level as me." Shen Yu saw the collar badge on Luo Yao's collar and smiled. In fact, he had known for a long time that Luo Yao's promotion to colonel had been decided for a long time. It's just not announced.

"Brother Six, are you asking to borrow someone?" Luo Yao sat down and got straight to the point.

"I knew that something bad would happen if I stepped on dog poop when I went out today." Shen Yu said, "Tell me, who do you want to borrow from me?"

"Deng Yi!"

"Deng Yi, no loan, no loan, you are going to steal my right-hand man!" Hearing this, Shen Yu suddenly shook his head like a rattle.

"It's fine if you don't want to borrow it. I'll go find the director now." Luo Yao stood up before he could even sit down.

"Borrow, borrow, can't I borrow it? But we have agreed that if you borrow something, you will return it. Don't just lend someone back to me." Shen Yu hurriedly grabbed Luo Yao. When he went to find Dai Yunong, that meant that he was not seconded, but that he was taken away directly.

Asking for a monthly ticket!
