Looking at Moriki Keisei's condition, Ning Zhiheng guessed that he really had nothing left to say. Besides, given his physical condition, there was really no way to continue torturing him, otherwise he would have been beaten to death.
However, according to Moriki Keio's account, he had already gained control of most of the remaining forces in the Chongqing intelligence network.
Two of the four top spies are already in his hands, and as for the armed group leader, Kensuke Matsui, he will likely be in his grasp tomorrow night as well.
Now only Matsuda Jiro, the head of the observation group in charge of weather reconnaissance, and a few observation teams under his command remain.
As for the senior agents directly under the headquarters mentioned by Moriki Kei, they are all under his control now. There are still two moles that have not been found, but Ning Zhiheng has decided to keep them for the time being and make other plans.
Based on this calculation, this crackdown should be over soon, and I need to return to Shanghai as soon as possible to take charge.
Now that the Battle of Changsha is about to end, the Japanese intelligence agencies will shift their focus from the battlefield to behind enemy lines. At this time, the Wang Jingwei regime is in its early stages, and the strength of Agent 76 is growing day by day. Their control over the three provinces of Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Anhui is becoming increasingly tight. Under such a grim situation, without his own identity as cover, the Shanghai intelligence department may not be able to guarantee that nothing will happen to it. It is not advisable for him to leave for too long.
As for the spies that had already been identified, Ning Zhiheng decided to put them aside for the time being. Arresting so many targets at the same time would cause a great stir, which might scare away Matsui Kensuke and cause him to abandon the next assassination operation. Once these people were out of contact, it would be difficult to find them again. He had to ensure the success of tomorrow night's operation.
Moreover, according to Moriki Kesei's confession, apart from the Wuhan headquarters, none of the subordinate organizations under his jurisdiction knew about his concealed identity. In other words, they would not notice whether this monk named Huiyuan was alive or dead.
In that case, I only need to wait one more day, and by tomorrow night I can wipe them all out, so there's no rush.
Ning Zhiheng did not send anyone to track and monitor these people. Monitoring so many targets would require too many people, and he needed a large number of personnel tomorrow night, so he couldn't arrange it that way.
Besides, having too many targets to monitor could easily lead to accidents, so it's best not to alert them to avoid making a fuss.
At 5 p.m. the next day, a black sedan was parked on the side of a street near Juxianlou. Ning Zhiheng, dressed in casual clothes, sat in the back seat, his eyes slightly closed, trying to calm his mind.
Shortly after, the car door opened, and Shao Wenguang, also dressed in casual clothes, got in.
"Chief!"
"Did you find anything?"
"The other party has already made a move. At noon today, Juxianlou replaced a waiter because the original waiter fell and broke his head. The injury was not serious, so they introduced a brother from their own family to fill in for a while."
Shao Wenguang had long ago bribed people in Juxianlou to act as spies, and nothing that happened inside could escape their notice.
If an unusual situation suddenly occurs, regardless of whether it is the other party's action, they must be apprehended together.
Ning Zhiheng nodded and said in a deep voice, "They must have bribed that guy to plant someone in here. If someone sneaks in alone, they'll either poison someone, blow something up, or attempt a close-quarters assassination. Let him live a little longer, and when the time comes, we'll all make our move!"
Shao Wenguang continued his report: "There's been no movement from the nearby ambush points yet. It's still early, but I estimate they'll enter the ambush points once it gets dark."
Ning Zhiheng glanced at the sky outside, nodded, and asked, "Any news from Daguanping?"
Shao Wenguang said doubtfully, "No, these people are really calm. I wonder what they're planning? Could they have only arranged for this one assassin?"
"Impossible. Time is so tight, and we only have this one chance. They will definitely go all out. I estimate that Daguanping is the main ambush point because the chances of a successful ambush there are the highest. If something unexpected happens, and I don't pass through Daguanping, or the ambush doesn't go smoothly and I escape this calamity, then they will make their move at Juxianlou."
Ning Zhiheng didn't care what the other side's plans were. He had seized the initiative in this operation. As long as the other side made a move, it would be difficult for them to escape. You see, in order to lure the enemy out of their hole, he had mobilized all his armed forces. He would use sheer force to overwhelm the enemy with absolute superiority and was not afraid that they could escape alive.
An hour passed quickly, and it was already getting dark. Nie Tianming and Zhao Jiang arrived at Juxianlou early to welcome relatives and friends from all over the place.
Shao Wenguang rushed over again, and as soon as he opened the car door, he said excitedly, "Chief, their people have appeared. Our surveillance personnel have discovered that unidentified people are gathering on the mountain at Daguanping."
"Good!" Ning Zhiheng struck with his fist and palm. As expected, the Japanese couldn't hold back and appeared. Once they entered Daguanping, they had already entered the ambush that had been set up in advance.
As the saying goes, even a lion will fight a rabbit with all its might. Around Daguanping, I have deployed two action teams, all fully armed elites, led by my senior brother Wei Liangbi. They are just waiting for my order to quickly move out, guard the surrounding passages, and surround the Japanese armed group. Even if they had wings, they would have no chance of escape.
Shao Wenguang then reported: "Gunners have also appeared at the three ambush points near Juxianlou, especially two gunmen on the roof of the theater opposite Juxianlou. Our men are positioned around the area and are waiting for your orders."
