Upon hearing Zheng Hongbo's account, Ning Zhiheng nodded and said, "It seems that the Japanese intelligence department is not very stable right now. Station Chief, you should be more careful with your future operations."
“Okay, I will be careful!” Zheng Hongbo nodded in agreement.
The two discussed some more details, then parted ways to arrange their respective tasks.
Ning Zhiheng rushed back to the Tan Mansion and notified Ji Hongyi to come see him. For this kind of black market arms deal, it's best to ask someone like Ji Hongyi who is familiar with the situation.
Soon, Ji Hongyi, who had been notified, rushed over, stood at attention and saluted Ning Zhiheng, and reported, "Station Chief, you need to see me?"
Ning Zhiheng gestured for him to sit down before asking, "We have a new mission now: to blow up important Japanese military targets. However, we don't have any high-efficiency explosives. Do you know which arms dealers on the black market have large quantities of TNT?"
"TINTI? This is high-end stuff!" Ji Hongyi said in surprise.
Ning Zhiheng nodded and said, "Yes, it's TNT. We urgently need this kind of explosive. Go and find out about it as soon as possible."
"Yes, I'll take care of it right away!" Ji Hongyi accepted the order and left quickly.
Just then, Miao Yongyi walked in. He glanced at Ji Hongyi's departing figure and knew that there was a new operation in progress.
Since he took charge of the security work of the agency, he has not had any specific missions and his work is relatively leisurely. Seeing others busy all day long, he also feels a little restless.
"Zhiheng, is there some big operation going on?" Miao Yongyi leaned close to Ning Zhiheng and asked in a low voice.
Although the two were in a superior-subordinate relationship, they were also like brothers. So when they were alone, Miao Yongyi still called Ning Zhiheng by his name and spoke to him casually. Ning Zhiheng naturally didn't mind. They had been getting along like this for many years. If Miao Yongyi were to distance himself from him like others, Ning Zhiheng would be very unhappy.
Ning Zhiheng nodded and said with a smile, "Nanjing is in imminent danger, so headquarters naturally has to show some results. That's why they're pushing us so hard. We'll have a lot of operations going on, so everyone will be busy."
Miao Yongyi quickly said, "Then give me some tasks too, anything that involves killing Japanese people, I'll do it!"
Ning Zhiheng could tell that this was Miao Yongyi's true feeling. In fact, Miao Yongyi was just like Wang Shucheng before him. They were both patriotic soldiers at heart and were not very suitable for intelligence work. They only embarked on this path for various reasons.
Miao Yongyi, in particular, hated the Japanese to the bone and was filled with thoughts of killing the enemy and avenging them. In fact, sending him to the front lines to fight the Japanese with real swords and spears would have been more in line with his wishes.
Ning Zhiheng naturally couldn't let him take the risk. Miao Yongyi's safety was one aspect, but on the other hand, he played an even more important role for Ning Zhiheng.
He smiled and advised, "Yongyi, it's not that I don't want to arrange for you to go on field missions, it's just that you and I are brothers, and our relationship is naturally different from others. I specifically put you in charge of the security work of the agency, which means I'm entrusting my life to you. With you here, I can sleep more soundly."
Besides, field operations are extremely dangerous work. There can be no room for error; even the slightest mistake could lead to utter ruin. You haven't received any special agent training before, so I'm really worried about you going on field missions. It's better for you to focus on the security of the headquarters; that's far more important. If someone takes over our base, everything will be over!
When Miao Yongyi heard Ning Zhiheng's words, he thought about it and realized they made sense. The two had been brothers since childhood, and he knew that Ning Zhiheng treated him differently from others. As soon as he joined Ning Zhiheng's team, he immediately entrusted him with the security work of the organization. This trust was beyond doubt. His brother had entrusted his life to him, and he really couldn't afford to let anything go wrong.
Moreover, I have absolutely no experience in special operations. If something goes wrong during the operation, I don't care about my own safety, but I'm afraid it will also endanger my other comrades.
"I just feel that everyone in the intelligence station is busy, but I'm just sitting here doing nothing all day. I'm afraid they'll gossip and say that I'm taking advantage of your power to live a leisurely life in the Tan mansion," Miao Yongyi said, shaking his head with some helplessness.
Ning Zhiheng raised an eyebrow, a cold glint in his eyes, and said calmly, "Is someone spreading rumors? Don't worry, I have my support, and no one dares to question your work."
Ning Zhiheng's tone suddenly turned cold, making Miao Yongyi's heart skip a beat. He clearly felt a sense of oppression and quickly said with a smile, "No one is talking nonsense. Besides, with your great god-like presence here, who dares to talk about me!"
During this time, he knew very well that Ning Zhiheng had extremely strong control within Ning Zhiheng's team, and his words were absolute authority, with no one daring to question them.
These agents are all elites, each with sufficient ability and courage. The best among them are Huo Yueze's shrewdness, Ji Hongyi's experience, and Sun Jiacheng and the Zuo brothers' exceptional skills. Yet, these outstanding individuals obediently submit to their brothers, daring not to disobey in the slightest.
Miao Yongyi was also a top student from the Whampoa Military Academy, a shrewd and capable person. All signs indicate that Ning Zhiheng now is probably completely different from the taciturn brother he used to be!
The two brothers chatted for a while longer, and Ning Zhiheng offered a few words of reassurance before Miao Yongyi turned and left with peace of mind.
After Miao Yongyi left, Ning Zhiheng sat in his chair, closed his eyes to rest, and carefully considered the next series of actions. He was still quite troubled by the raiding mission assigned by the Chief.
