Spy Wars: I can get rewards by being a bully!

Chapter 857 I am a spy war immortal

Okamura also warned earnestly, "Lin, Yuancheng is not like Tianjin or Peking. It's the front line of the war, and our control is actually very weak. Various forces have gathered here, and undercurrents are surging. Military counterintelligence operations are different from the public security and counterintelligence work you are familiar with. If you can do well this time, perhaps you can truly enter the headquarters' sight and have a better development. Do you understand?"

"Yes! Thank you, General, for your cultivation!"

"Very good. Previously, our intelligence assets in Yuancheng were controlled by Matsuzaki. He commands the Yuancheng Military Police and has made some arrangements in advance. You go find him and ask him to hand over the relevant information to you. He is now a frightened bird and dare not disobey on such work matters. By the way, you have to go to the airport to pick up a group of people tomorrow. I have borrowed the Third Aircraft Group from the Kwantung Army. They will arrive in Peking tomorrow. Also coming with them is Lieutenant Colonel Hanatani Masaru of the Second Section of the Special High Technology Department. The headquarters attaches great importance to this operation, so they have also sent an intelligence expert. Lin-san, you must work together and perform well!"

Okamura's meaning was very clear. Nowadays, the Japanese rarely launched large-scale battles. On the one hand, the fronts on all fronts were becoming increasingly stable, and it was difficult to find a breakthrough with significant strategic value. On the other hand, the national strength of the Japanese really could not keep up. Now the occupied areas have adopted a defensive strategy, abandoning the countryside and only controlling cities and towns. The teams controlling the towns had to be responsible for their own logistics supply, and from time to time they had to go to the countryside to catch chickens, and then be ambushed by guerrillas.

Ten or eight people were killed here, and ten or eight people were killed there. The total number in the entire occupied area is not a small number!

Therefore, this time the Japanese are concentrating a large-scale force to attack Zhongtiao Mountain. The headquarters attaches as much importance to it as when they attacked Jiangcheng. Otherwise, they would not have personally taken charge of the intelligence work and specially sent so-called intelligence experts.

No matter whether they are real experts or not, to be selected by the base at this time, they must have either ability or background, so Lin Ze will benefit a lot from having a good relationship with such people.

Lin Ze thanked him again, left the headquarters, and went to the hospital to find Matsuzaki.

Seeing Lin Ze coming to see him, Song Qi was surprised and delighted. He whispered, "Mr. Lin, why are you here in broad daylight? If someone with ulterior motives sees us, they'll probably suspect we're plotting something."

Lin Ze was speechless. This grandson was a lieutenant general after all, but he was manipulated into this state by Okamura. He really didn't know whether Okamura's methods were too clever or Matsuzaki's grandson was really hopeless.

"Matsuzaki-kun, it's okay. I came here at the order of the Admiral. I have some work to discuss with you."

"Work? Does General Okamura mean to forgive me?" Matsuzaki was very happy.

This is typical weakness and capitulationism.

The struggle is a fight to the death, without any mercy, and one cannot become a high official without the heart to kill his father. Maybe Matsuzaki was a decisive killer before, but in the past two or three years, he climbed up too fast because of Lin Ze, from a military police commander to the chief of the secret service in North China. His mentality has completely changed. He began to covet the status and power in front of him, and was willing to compromise for it. In general, his mentality has evolved towards that of Chairman Wang.

Lin Ze played his part to the end, saying seriously, "No matter what, we can't let our guard down. Okamura is unpredictable and moody, so we need to be prepared for both scenarios. Let's get down to business first. He asked me to come to you to make some arrangements regarding Far City. How many intelligence assets do we have there?"

Intelligence assets is a term that refers to all people and things that can generate intelligence value.

For example, the Six Nations Hotel, as a gathering place for diplomats and the center of the intelligence trading network, has great intelligence value and is an intelligence asset.

In addition, informants, neutral intelligence dealers, and enemy spies who have been discovered by our side are all considered intelligence assets.

Matsuzaki shook his head. "Yuancheng is a tiny city, surrounded by rural areas with no real control. We don't have many available forces, but it's right next to Fenglingdu, so transportation is convenient and well-connected. Various spies are gathered here. According to General Okamura's previous arrangements, we're mainly trying to establish contact with people in the Red Zone. A joint defense team leader of the Yuancheng gendarmerie has contact with a liaison officer in the Red Zone. To avoid alerting the enemy, we haven't yet followed up with this liaison officer. The higher-ups probably want to use this channel to feed some false intelligence and disrupt the enemy's deployment thinking."

In this kind of large-scale combat, intelligence work can be said to be useful, but it can also be said to be of limited use. Battles involving hundreds of thousands of people are generally fought openly in the later stages and are a competition of comprehensive combat capabilities.

Therefore, the headquarters' strategy is also very simple. If the opponent can be confused, then confuse the opponent. If the opponent cannot be confused, then launch a crackdown, capture the opponent's spies as much as possible, and cut off the opponent's intelligence acquisition network.

But what puzzled Lin Ze was that when attacking Zhongtiao Mountain, they were clearly fighting against the army in the south, so why did they have to come into contact with people in the red zone?

After a little thought, Lin Ze understood the reason and thought to himself that Okamura was indeed a treacherous old bastard with a very vicious plan!

As mentioned before, Yuancheng is located at the junction of several provinces because of Fengling Ferry. To the west is the Red Zone's sphere of influence, to the north are various guerrillas, and to the south and east are the First War Zone and Commander Wei's troops.

The choice to feed false intelligence to the red zone is not only due to military considerations, but more importantly, it is a political consideration.

The Red Zone has obtained the intelligence. Should they inform the South?

If the South is informed and the intelligence turns out to be false, will the Red Zone be held responsible?

If we don't inform the South, and the Japanese later spread the word that the Red Zone got the intelligence in advance, will there be a greater rift between the Red Zone and the South, and will the Red Zone's reputation be damaged?

From the perspective of the South, they have always been very resistant to being "assisted" by the Red Zone because they don't want to give others a chance to criticize them.

If they knew that there was intelligence in the Red Zone, would they use some unconventional tactics, or even have spies from both sides engage in a direct gunfight in the distant city to seize the intelligence?

This is all possible.

Matsuzaki sighed, "Mr. Lin, have you figured out the logic behind this? Honestly, I've thought about it for a long, long time, and I only understand part of the game behind it. This is the work of the headquarters. Will they send someone here this time?"

Lin Ze:......

"We will send someone. I heard that the one coming is Hanaya Masaru from the Second Section of the Special High Technology Department."

"Hanatani Tadashi!" Matsuzaki exclaimed.

"Why, does this guy have something to say?"

"The Hanatani family is a family of espionage, and Hanatani Masaru is a disciple of Lord Doi-maru. Although young, he is very thoughtful and has masterminded many famous espionage operations around the world, securing numerous benefits for the empire. He is known as the Flower of Espionage!"

The Japanese are so pretentious, spending money all day long.

This guy is the flower of spy war, then what am I, a spy war immortal?
