That must be it! This operation to eliminate the enemy was an important task personally ordered by the Chairman. If we can perform well in this operation, the credit will be considerable, and we will leave a very good impression on the Chairman. This old guy really dares to gamble!
Huang Xianzheng was well aware that the intelligence department had been cracking down on Japanese spies for a long time, but with little success. However, with Ning Zhiheng's return, he felt emboldened and jumped out to cause trouble, wanting to claim all the credit for himself. He was certainly playing a clever game.
Huang Xianzheng's words startled the others in the room, especially Gu Zhengqi. His original plan was to use Ning Zhiheng's abilities and cooperate with his own men. In this way, if the operation was not progressing well, it would be Ning Zhiheng's responsibility, and he would at most be a co-responsible party, and the pressure would not be as great as before.
However, if the operation goes smoothly, Ning Zhiheng will certainly be the one to deserve the credit, but his Second Intelligence Division will also make a great contribution. He can move forward or backward at will. In fact, deep down, he has always had full confidence in Ning Zhiheng. The several joint cases he had with Ning Zhiheng made him realize this. Now it seems that Huang Xianzheng does not intend to let him benefit from this.
Everyone present was exceptionally astute and quickly understood Huang Xianzheng's intentions. They exchanged glances and then turned their attention to the Bureau Chief.
The bureau chief cursed under his breath as an old fox, but since Huang Xianzheng trusted Ning Zhiheng so much, he decided to give it a try and see just how confident Ning Zhiheng really was.
Thinking of this, the bureau chief turned to Ning Zhiheng with a smile and asked, "Zhiheng, you are the executor, which personnel do you think are appropriate to call upon?"
Ning Zhiheng and Huang Xianzheng had already discussed it yesterday, so naturally they would cooperate. He smiled slightly, bowed, and said, "After all, I am the director of the Second Action Division. I am more used to using my own subordinates. I know them well and they are easier to use."
As soon as Ning Zhiheng spoke, everyone understood that he was extremely confident in the upcoming crackdown operation.
The bureau chief was speechless for a long time. This task had always been a hot potato, but Ning Zhiheng's arrival had turned it into a golden opportunity to make a name for himself. After careful consideration, he finally nodded and agreed, "Alright, then we'll go with your decision. You can move the personnel yourself. As I said before, you can move any personnel from any department whenever you need them. Everything is for the benefit of the Party and the country!"
Ultimately, everyone's scheming and power struggles were all aimed at eliminating Japanese spies. If things went smoothly, Huang Xianzheng would certainly stand out. However, the Military Intelligence Bureau also had its pride. As long as it didn't involve seizing power, the Director was still tolerant!
After saying that, the bureau chief turned to Bian Ze and said, "Xiang Nan, come down and hand over the cases you have to Zhi Heng first."
The case he was referring to was naturally the leak of the defense plan in northern Jiangxi. Upon hearing this, Bian Ze was overjoyed. He was exhausted by the case and was really overwhelmed, so he quickly nodded in agreement.
The bureau chief then instructed Ning Zhiheng, "This case can't be delayed any longer. We need to get a result as soon as possible. Zhiheng, it's all up to you!"
Ning Zhiheng immediately nodded and accepted the order: "Please rest assured, Director, I will definitely investigate this case as soon as possible."
Huang Xianzheng quickly chimed in, "Chief, I also have some thoughts on this case. Let's discuss it later."
"Okay!" the bureau chief nodded in agreement.
The deal was struck, and the meeting ended quickly. Everything was going well, and the two bureau chiefs got up and left, presumably to have a private discussion about the specifics.
The others breathed a sigh of relief when they saw the two bureau chiefs leave, and they all chatted and joked with Ning Zhiheng.
Zhao Ziliang patted Ning Zhiheng on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Zhiheng, we know you had a heavy responsibility before, so we didn't want to ask too many questions. But since we've met today, how about we all go out for a drink tonight?"
Ning Zhiheng was naturally delighted. He smiled and said to everyone, "I'll host this event. It's been so long since we've all met. I've had no choice but to accept this. Today is my way of making amends."
Everyone readily agreed to this suggestion.
