Evil is always quietly growing in places where sunlight cannot reach.

  Guangxi finally fell into the hands of Generalissimo in this war, Military Intelligence Department Guangxi Station Master Gong Peng made great contributions, not only providing sufficient and accurate intelligence for military operations but also personally turning Wei Changrong and Chen Zhaopin to contribute greatly to the final victory of the entire war

  It's hard to imagine that this man was just a street urchin in Changsha less than two years ago, but now Gong Peng is becoming more and more like a regular soldier. His military uniform is very neat and tidy, not a single stain. He had just come down from the Guangxi political reform discussion meeting convened by Wang Zhenyu and returned to his old mansion in Liuzhou, which he had purchased when he was the head of the Military Intelligence Agency's Liuzhou station last year. However, due to the nature of his work, Gong Peng's wife and daughter were in Anjiang, but he didn't go find a mistress like some men do in later generations. After all, women are often the most unreliable. But now it's different, Guangxi has become a controlled area for our army, and the reactionary yellow thoughts that had been suppressed for a year began to fill Gong Peng's mind.

  And the person below naturally understood everything with just a hint. A very beautiful woman was quickly sent to Gong Fu, and Gong Peng, out of professional habit, took a glance through the door crack and felt great at once. Although this woman's facial features couldn't be described as stunning, they were extremely delicate, full of femininity, and her figure made her look even more curvaceous with her hands tied behind her back. Most importantly, that sensual butt was indeed bigger and more protruding than usual, belonging to the typical type that could bear children. Suddenly, this filled Gong Peng's entire mind, but strangely, just as he was about to dismiss his subordinates and go in for a fierce battle, the last bit of clarity lit up his heavenly gate, and he unconsciously asked his subordinates: "Who sent this woman? What's her background?"

  His subordinate respectfully replied, "It was sent by someone from the Guilin branch station. It is said that it is a new concubine of Chen Bingkun, the former commander of the First Division of the Guangxi Army, named Zhao Yuting. Due to the war, he didn't have time to enjoy her before becoming our prisoner..."

  "What's next?" Gong Peng shuddered and immediately became wide awake. He had no idea where he was or how he got there, which wasn't unusual for him.

  His subordinates could only whisper: "Chen Bingkun died inexplicably in the third division's prisoner-of-war camp. It is said that Li, the commander of the third division, was very angry about this matter."

  "How did this woman end up here?" Gong Peng asked very nervously, his professional experience telling him that things weren't as simple as they seemed. His tone also became stern when questioning his subordinates.

  His subordinate replied with some fear: "That Chen Bingkun was very good at embezzling in Guilin, and when he died, Du Shuangling, the station chief of our Guilin branch, led his men to ransack his home. The people from the Third Division also went to ransack homes, but we were carrying the Military Affairs Bureau's sign, so they didn't succeed."

  Gong Peng suddenly understood everything. No wonder during the meeting today, Li Shizhang and Bai Canmou from the Third Division didn't even give him a straight look. The emotions of those below were that they had recklessly blocked others from making a fortune, and now that things have blown up, they want to drag him down with them. Isn't this just ruining someone's reputation?

  Gong Peng angrily slapped a subordinate: "Why didn't you say earlier whether you got any benefits or not?"

  "Director, I didn't dare to be lazy!"

  Gong Peng shouted loudly and Da Hu led a few men in. Gong Peng pointed: "Get rid of this hypocrite for me."

  Ming Dahyu saluted and before the man could react, he and several others strangled him to death.

  Gong Peng was still indignant and felt wronged, having offended the military's top brass for no reason. How could he still work under General Du in the future? However, this matter couldn't be handled like this. If he returned the things he had obtained through Du Shuangling to the Third Regiment, they wouldn't accept it, not to mention that his reputation within the military intelligence system would also be ruined. He thought for a moment: "Where is Du Shuangling? Let him come see me."

  Du Shuangling ran in, sweating profusely, and saluted Gou Peng. The corpse of the deputy officer who was just killed was dragged out right in front of him. Even a fool knows what kind of situation the station head is in now.

  "You son of a bitch!" Gong Peng stepped forward and slapped Du Shuangling twice. Du Shuangling took the beating without daring to make a sound, with two palm prints on his face. He stood there quietly, not daring to move. However, he felt relieved in his heart. As long as the superior was still willing to exert effort to hit him, it meant that he didn't intend to deal with him seriously. Otherwise, with just one word, outsiders would drag him out and beat him to death.

  "How much did I just mess up"

  "Report to the station master, a total of 600,000, with 500,000 on my body. I am prepared to offer it to you." Du Shuangling replied nervously, not daring to tell lies at this moment. If Gong Zhanzhang knew the truth, he would probably end up like that deputy officer just now - a dead dog.

  Gong Peng turned around and gave Du Shuangling a glance that almost scared her into kneeling down.

  "You little scoundrel, you've been plotting against me all along! Do you think you're invincible?"

  "It's not that I'm afraid of being scolded, but I just want to show respect to Station Master. You've been working too hard these days."

  "Even if it's the Third Division, you can't just go and provoke them. Let alone me, even if Old He came, he'd have to put on a smiling face when seeing Li Shizhong and Bai Canmou. What happened to Chen Bingkun's death? Clean up your own mess, or else you'll be the one who gets killed."

  Du Shuangling felt that everything she did was seen clearly by Gong Zhanzhang, and immediately knelt down: "Zhanzhang, what should we do now? Should we send the money to the Third Master?"

  Gong Peng was so angry that he almost kicked to death this underling who had a pig's brain: "Are you a pig? If you retreat now, they will appreciate it and believe you didn't take anything."

  "What can we do then?"

  Gong Peng angrily slapped Du Shuang's forehead: "You fool, you dare to say that the Third Regiment is most afraid of our Commander? Are you going to send this money and woman to the Commander? If the Commander is happy, who else would you be afraid of? You're relying on this sum of money to get rich, huh? Get out of here quickly!"

  Du Shuangling finally came to her senses and rolled out of there as fast as she could.

  Gong Peng let out a very dissatisfied sigh: "Trash"

  That night, Zhao Yuting and the 600,000 taels of silver were delivered to Wang Zhenyu's temporary residence. Vice Officer Wang Hu personally signed for them. As soon as he saw this beauty, he was stunned. After regaining his composure, he immediately realized a very serious problem - none of these people had considered that General Wang was also a normal man. No wonder every time the general looked at those Japanese paintings, he would chase all of them out. Was it because he was afraid of committing a sin? This was the fault of the servants. But thinking about General Wang's wife, who was somewhat overbearing and fierce, Vice Officer Wang began to worry again - would he be castrated by the madam? It was difficult, so he quietly found Huang Shaohu, who had just been promoted to the head of the Servant Department (the original Zhou Lian had already been transferred to the Gendarmerie Command as a commanding officer).

  Huang Shaohong took over as the head of the attendant department, which was a windfall for him. He had just arrived at Wang Zhenyu's side and naturally didn't know Wang Hu, who was familiar with the inside story. In his opinion, whatever the general needed was what these personal attendants should do, so he took on this task without hesitation. Years later, as a standing committee member of the Military Commission and a big shot in the Guangxi clique, Huang Shaohong sighed: "Wang Hu is just a rotten person. If I could have revealed a bit about Mrs. Ye Zhiwen's situation, I wouldn't have had to offend her for no reason and make my own career path so difficult."

  "General" Huang Shaokong knocked on the door of the study and walked in. Wang Zhenyu had just signed a few important orders and was about to go downstairs for a cup of tea before going to sleep.

  "Oh, what's the work of the Ministry of War? Don't worry, actually, the Minister is just in charge of overseeing the overall situation. As long as he urges each department to do their job properly, that's enough. In fact, previous Ministers Zhao Dongsheng and Zhou Lan didn't have much specific business to attend to either." Huang Shaohong still admired and respected Wang Zhenyu, who had proposed the idea of a protracted war with Chiang Kai-shek, despite being only 19 years old.

  Huang Shaokong, although he was already a father, was still pulling strings. For the first time ever, his face turned red as he said: "The Military Affairs Department sent over an important woman who claims to be paying respects to you, General. Do you want to see her?"

  "What a respectful woman" Wang Zhenyu immediately lost his majestic demeanor, shaking his head like a rattle drum. If the one at home found out, he'd be skinned alive! "Shaoqun, stop putting me in harm's way! If I really took you in, I'd be the first to suffer bad luck. Hurry up and return him to the military affairs department. These people should focus on their proper work and stop flattering."

  When Huang Shaohong heard the commander's considerate words, he was immediately moved and said what would be his most regretful words for the rest of his life: "The people have already been sent to the official residence, Commander. You might as well take a look. There are also 6 million yuan in checks that came with them, which are said to be stolen goods from Chen Bingkun's house."

  Wang Zhenyu has been a bit hungry lately, although he is a young man from the future, but this matter seems to have nothing to do with ideological and moral level, it's just an instinctive reaction. When Anjiang's wife saw him dead, he really had some urge in his heart when he arrived in Guangxi. He scratched his itch and said: "There are also 600,000 yuan worth of checks, let's go take a look at the things sent by the Military Affairs Office."
