Bian Ze looked at Wei Liangbi and suddenly asked, "Liangbi, when Wu Huarong led the Shanghai Station to evacuate, did they leave all their weapons behind at the Shanghai Intelligence Section?"
Wei Liangbi was taken aback, not understanding why Bian Zeye brought up this matter. After thinking about it carefully, he nodded and said, "It seems that there was such a thing. When they evacuated Shanghai, for safety reasons, none of the personnel carried any weapons. They left behind more than sixty Browning pistols, but not many bullets. These weapons have been stored in the intelligence department's office."
Bian Ze was delighted upon hearing this and quickly said, "The thing is, the newly recruited personnel from the Shanghai station also infiltrated the concession empty-handed. They lack weapons and equipment, and I'd like you to transfer this batch of weapons and ammunition to them. What's your opinion?"
Upon hearing this, Wei Liangbi immediately nodded and agreed, saying, "No problem. We'll agree on a meeting place, and I'll arrange for someone to deliver it to you right away."
Wei Liangbi knew that the Shanghai Intelligence Section was not lacking in weapons and equipment. Besides, these guns originally belonged to the Shanghai Station, or more precisely, to the First Intelligence Division. Wei Liangbi was unwilling to take advantage of this.
Bian Ze was naturally pleased to hear Wei Liangbi's quick agreement. After all, the Shanghai station personnel were all rescued by the Shanghai Intelligence Section, and even if the weapons left behind were confiscated, he wouldn't be able to say anything about it.
Zhao Ziliang laughed and said, "Your Second Operations Division is really rich and powerful. What don't you have? You're only interested in this little bit of stuff? Liangbi, be generous and equip us with more gear. When conducting special operations behind enemy lines, you can't do without good equipment!"
When Zhao Ziliang spoke, Wei Liangbi felt a little embarrassed. Zhao Ziliang was his former superior. Back then, he had not been wary of him and Ning Zhiheng because of their different factions. On the contrary, he had taken great care of them. Therefore, he and Ning Zhiheng had always respected Zhao Ziliang.
Zhao Ziliang was a prudent man and had never asked either of them for money before. But now that he had asked, Wei Liangbi couldn't refuse. He could only nod and say, "Since the director has asked, how could Liangbi refuse? Here's what I'll do: I'll add another hundred new Browning rifles, six thousand rounds of ammunition, and one hundred kilograms of TNT. That should be enough for the Shanghai station!"
Wei Liangbi's words brought great joy to everyone in the room. This batch of weapons was nothing in Chongqing, but it was extremely precious in Shanghai, far behind enemy lines. This showed just how powerful the Shanghai intelligence department was.
Zhao Ziliang hadn't expected Wei Liangbi to give him so much face. His face lit up with joy, and he couldn't help but pat Wei Liangbi on the shoulder, saying, "Liangbi, you're so straightforward. I appreciate your kindness. Once the channels are established, I'll transfer double the amount from the National Salvation Army to repay you!"
Bian Ze was reserved and never liked to ask for favors, so he was embarrassed to ask Wei Liangbi for more weapons before. He felt that it was already good enough that Wei Liangbi returned the weapons to him. Now that he had received an unexpected surprise, he was naturally very happy and thanked Wei Liangbi repeatedly.
The director laughed and said, "Liangbi, you are very kind. It would be best if you would lend a hand. However, you must still pay attention to discipline. Your contact must be kept absolutely secret. You must not make any lateral contact afterward. Otherwise, if anything changes, the consequences will be unimaginable."
Now, the Director dares not be negligent in the slightest when it comes to the Shanghai Intelligence Section. He knows that with the Shanghai Intelligence Section, the position of Shanghai will not be lost, the supply line will not be interrupted, and the intelligence market can continuously supply intelligence. Such a vital force must not be lost under the current difficult situation!
"Yes, we will definitely pay attention!" Wei Liangbi and Bian Ze both nodded in acceptance.
Wei Liangbi then whispered the details to Bian Ze before taking his leave.
Upon arriving, Wei Liangbi not only learned the time and place of the tripartite meeting, but also solved a problem for the Shanghai station. The director's mood immediately improved, and he said to Bian Ze, "Arrange the weapons and equipment as soon as possible. Now the only problem left for the Shanghai station is funding. I will find a way to solve it for them."
"Yes!" Bian Ze nodded in agreement.
