In fact, Richardson, the head of CIA Saigon, is hard to meet even the ambassador and the head of the military aid command. In the eyes of almost all officials stationed in Vietnam, he is Wu Tingyan, a figure with the same political status. He is dealing with senior officials in Washington, not their "wannabe"
If you don’t get into the needle, you won’t get into the water. If anything happens, you will push su out as a shield.
Because of this, the embassy and the military aid headquarters have a bad impression of the "workers’ investment", and they are too arrogant to treat them. These officials have not shown due respect.
However, the official level killed people.
People can have a direct dialogue with the White House, the National People’s Congress, and the Pentagon Capitol Hill. Whether former Vice President Nixon or current Vice President Lyndon Johnson visits Vietnam, the head office of the Industrial Investment Corporation or the second place in Fuguo Island will meet with the chairman or Chen Shiguo.
Richardson directly admitted that Wu Andong was dissatisfied with the CIA’s failure to hand over the "flat team" to them, and bluntly said, "Mr. Chairman, in order to destroy the organization of North Vietnam in one fell swoop, we must be cautious. In fact, it is very necessary to keep confidential measures before testifying."
Gui Qingshan’s "impeded life" dealt a heavy blow to the South Bureau of the North Vietnamese Workers’ Party, and cleaned up the "Huayun" on the bank after two years of slowing down like a leek.
It is conceivable that North Vietnam will retaliate against the US agencies in Vietnam and the participating South Vietnamese departments in the future.
Although he was secretly happy, Li Min still woke up with an unhappy face. "Mr. Chang, we have reason to believe that the’ Ping Group’ played an important role in your just-concluded anti-espionage operation, and it is an indisputable fact that the’ Ping Group’ supported the establishment of the organization that we instructed to invade North Vietnam. In other words, they are our people and should be ours."
It must be admitted that the CIA has indeed played a disgraceful role in robbing Saigon.
Lansdale hurriedly said, "I have made it very clear to Jiang that Li Yu belongs to the Ping Group. Although I didn’t inform you in advance that the Fourth Tactical Area Command didn’t share information, we fulfilled all the obligations we should perform, such as eradicating the Chinese area on the embankment and the organization that crossed the G’ Huayun’ in Fuguo Island Special Zone at the same time."
It’s not that they don’t want to share, but that they can’t.
Last night, Gui Qingshan finally confirmed that the ambush and the governor Ruan Yucao were purely unilateral actions taken by the CIA to frame the South African guerrilla Wu Tingyan. How could such a thing be leaked out? If the "Ping Group" was of great value, I am afraid they would have done anything to kill people.
Li Min didn’t want to beat around the bush with them, saying, "Second, the judicial departments in the spy zones such as Fan Chun ‘an have a definite attitude. The SAR police department has formally filed a case against these zones to conduct an exhibition investigation on the suspects who are involved in illegal activities and endanger the security of the national SAR."
If everything is true, if the evidence is conclusive, the prosecutor’s office of the SAR will prosecute according to law, and the Dongyang District Criminal Court will also accept it. If the suspect is dissatisfied with the judgment, he can also entrust a lawyer to sue the case to the SAR court. I have consulted legal experts, and according to the existing laws, the official judgment of the SAR will be final.
Although Vietnam is far from being a country ruled by law, the laws of the industrial villages in Youfu Island are high, and I can guarantee that they will be given a fair trial, investigated and treated fairly during their detention. "
From Prime Minister Wu Tingyan to being executed without trial, the North Vietnamese Workers’ Party scored 10,000 points. What are you kidding about the North Vietnamese spy law?
Lansdale has been made ridiculous, but it is very much in line with the "mainstream values" by old friends. It won a lot of praise in Washington without saying that Fuguo Island took the lead in promoting political reform.
The establishment of the SAR Parliament, the establishment of two-level courts independent of the SAR Management Committee and the outside of the SAR Parliament, the election of the chairman of the SAR Management Committee by the SAR Parliament, the selection of judges by the parliament, and the approval of the judges by the parliament, it is said that the criminal court also organized a grand jury to turn over the entire American judicial system when trying criminal cases.
You reason with him, he can’t talk to you about legal roots!
Lansdale had a headache and simply told him bluntly, "Li can be handed over to Fan Chunan, the judicial department, because I need him to exchange prisoners of war."
"Exchange prisoners of war?"
"A sergeant, a private, an army lieutenant and their relatives are waiting for them to go home."
Richardson lost no time in adding, "The National Academy and the Pentagon have given us enough limits. The Embassy and the Military Aid Command will work closely together. Mr. Chairman, you don’t want this little thing to shock Washington, do you?"
Li Min stared at his eyes and asked coldly, "Mr. Chang, since the implementation of the strategic village plan, at least five officers and soldiers of the national army have been captured. More than three boys from the 5 th Infantry Division alone have fallen into the hands of the Confederate guerrillas. Isn’t it important for their safety that their relatives are not worried about their safety?"
He doesn’t care how many people are captured in the national army. The 5 th Infantry Division is different. Those are his most loyal supporters.
Lansdale weighed some arguments and said, "Li, you give me Fan Chunan, and I can bring more than three prisoners of war from the 5 th Infantry Division into the scope of negotiations. Of course, this matter needs to be kept secret and cannot be known to Saigon."
This doubt is a two-way solution.
Li Min pondered for a moment and asked incredulously, "How sure are you of the exchange?"
"As soon as Ruan Wencai was arrested in North Vietnam, he organized an exchange with the Cambodian Embassy in Phnom Penh. You know Ruan Wencai is the highest official we captured in North Vietnam. He knows their network and activities in the south very well. It is impossible to replace him with Fan Chunan or anyone else."
"Well, I will coordinate with the SAR Management Committee as soon as possible, but it seems to me that there is no contradiction between investigation, prosecution and trial exchange. Starting the judicial process may put some pressure on the other party. If they are not sincere enough or move quickly enough, once the judge makes a death sentence, they can’t save it, forcing them to complete the exchange when stipulated."
The law of "industrial investment" treats these problems of corruption and sabotage with no mercy. Huang Yuchang, the former president of the industrial village circuit court and now the official of the Fuguo Island Special Zone Court, did not even give the reputation of "an impartial judge" to Wu Tingyan’s brothers.
North Vietnam knows this very well and should not make fun of their comrades’ lives.
Lansdale found that this might be a good idea. Richardson looked at each other and agreed, "OK, I’ll have the evidence materials handed over to the SAR police station as soon as possible and his wife handed over as soon as possible."
Wu Dongdong insisted that the judicial department of the SAR accept the case, which was not just a matter of contention.
Li Min nodded slightly and then said, "Mr. President, as you know, six provinces are carrying out political and economic reforms. Local governments, especially local judicial institutions, need credibility. If everything is a mere formality, then there is no difference between reform and non-reform. I sincerely hope that we respect our allies and our allies can respect us."
In fact, not only local governments, local councils and local judicial departments, but also the Fourth Tactical Area Command hold the same attitude, regardless of whether the CIA or the Military Aid Command want to take any action in the six provinces in the future, they need to communicate with us in advance, get our consent in advance and carry it out by our Lord. "
Lansdale doesn’t think there’s anything wrong with this. He laughs happily. "The six provinces of Li have enough execution, which is exactly what we expect. Those bureaucrats in Saigon are different from those who do business. It is no exaggeration to say that you have won the respect of the world through your own efforts and actions."
"thank you"
If the security situation in South Vietnam was as good as that in six provinces, the pressure on the CIA would not be so great now.
Richardson didn’t want to offend President Kennedy’s direct interlocutor, but he said seriously, "Mr. Chairman, the government needs credibility and the nation needs pride. I agree with you very much. We can get closer together in the future. I think we should establish a cooperation mechanism, such as sending a liaison officer to the fourth tactical area command."
"General Ruan Zhiren will definitely look forward to it."
"Well, that’s settled." Lansdale got up and picked up his hat with a wry smile. "I’m going to see Fan Chunan before I go back to Saigon. Are you interested in coming?"
"Of course no problem."
Fan Chunan, who arrived at Fuguo Island Prison, had just finished the trial and was eating in the prison room.
However, my appetite is not very good. I sat in a daze on a wooden bed with a tin plate in my mouth, and my face looked gaunt. I can imagine that he and his wife are worried about their future fate.
The cell is not a place to talk. The prison guard took him to the interrogation room again to face Lansdale and Li Min. He looked a little surprised and showed an incredible expression.
He was a heavy smoker. Li Min handed him a cigarette and said in a homely way, "Mr. An, we seem to have met twice, once in a psychological war, once in a solid war at the school, and that time we also accompanied the school to get some documents."
I used to be very optimistic that a person became an enemy and a prisoner.
Lansdale regretted lighting a cigarette and said, "I didn’t know it was a big trouble for you until Mr. Chairman met for the first time. At that time, you thought you shouldn’t give me confidential documents easily, so I had a certain trust and affection for you."
Seeing two great people who can change their own destiny, Fan Chun ‘an felt a rush of hope and eagerly said, "Mr. Schoolmate, I … I don’t want to deny that I have done anything, but I am not the kind of person you think. I have been benefited and everything is my wife."
"being benefited?" Li Min asked low questions.
"It’s Mr. Min. Please believe me."
At this point, I also quibbled that Lansdale gave him a malicious stare and said coldly, "Fan, I know more than you think. For example, when you were the leader of the North Vietnamese Bureau, Li Deshou, you were introduced as a laborer. party member first entered the psychological war situation of the general staff through your cousin Fan Chunjia, and then he got to know me and I got a letter from Chen Jin to engage in espionage.
The name of your organization is’ Chen Wenzhong’, code number 6. You type out the information you received when you took advantage of your position, and then take a camera shot to disguise the film as pork rolls or hide dead fish in your stomach as a Buddha worship or grave sacrifice, and send it out in the name of taking your dog for a walk early.
If there is not much film, you can put it in the bird’s nest of that tree. If there is too much film, you can hide it in a tombstone not far from the tree. When giving information, your wife is far behind, so you can warn the person who gets the information in case of arrest.
Your information will be sent by the so-called traffic policemen to the G headquarters in Guzhiyue for the first time, and then sent to the war zone by courier, from the war zone to China and Guangzhou, and finally to He * * * * * *. We can confirm that you are the most important strategic intelligence source of North Vietnam … "
Word for word, he knows something he doesn’t know, such as the route of information delivery
Fan Chunan was completely stunned and silent for a long time, and suddenly realized that a traitor had been organized and it was a big traitor, otherwise Lansdale could not have mastered so much.
He will go on the rampage or shout a few slogans with impassioned enthusiasm. I didn’t expect him to be as afraid as watching him shivering. Li Min was really disappointed and thought that was all.
Accompanied by them, the deputy director of the SAR Police Department said with a straight face, "Fan Chunan, what you have done has seriously endangered the country. The prosecutor’s office of the SAR has sent you to court for espionage and treason. The jury will find you guilty and the judge will sentence you to death according to law, and so will your wife!"
Obviously, he wants Fan Chunan to explain something.
It’s a pity that they have been monitoring him for so many years with Gui Qingshan. It’s almost certain that he doesn’t even know the traffic policemen who take information. What valuable information can he produce?
The worst thing for a spy is to lose the value of profit, which he suspects is that kind.
If North Vietnam thinks so, the possibility of agreeing to exchange American prisoners of war with him will be slim, and he and his wife will die.
It is no wonder that people always say that there is no good field for land workers. Li Min got up with a sigh and said, "Be good at accepting investigations and trials, and don’t take any chances. If you have a good attitude of pleading guilty, you can actively cooperate with the investigation and maybe get a life imprisonment."
"I … where’s my wife?"
"If I had known today, it would have been the same."
Chapter two hundred and ten Rescue operation
Sun Ningyu, who sent Lansdale and Richardson back to the seaside villa, couldn’t help but wake up and say, "Brigadier General Li Yongliang, Chairman of the Board of Directors, Brigadier General Li Liangquan and the Intelligence Service Li Guangshen have arrived in Yongshaoyi. If nothing unexpected happens, they will hold a rescue operation in the early morning."
More than three brothers were captured, and the 5 th Infantry Division and the 4 th Tactical Zone have been trying their best to rescue them.
The Southern National Liberation Front was continuously attacked by the 5th Infantry Division and the special forces, which made it afraid that the active areas and defense lines were shrinking. The active guerrillas in Zhibu and Chaizhen, Parrot Corner, retreated to Vietnam, and the front line of Guzhi and Goose Oil Xining did not belong to the 5th Infantry Division’s defense zone, which directly led to the formation of a huge liberated area on the south bank of Saigon River in Daluning Forest.
More than three brothers were not captured at the same time. Intelligence showed that they were taken to several places to prevent the "reactionary Chinese armed forces" from fighting bravely. The location of the rescue was constantly changing. It was not until they broke into the enemy line a few days ago that it was confirmed that all the people were transferred to Luning, the headquarters of the so-called b2 theater.
It’s now or never.
