sis, which is the code name of the British Secret Intelligence Service, is a foreign strategic intelligence organization supervised by the British Foreign Office and directly under the leadership of the British Prime Minister's Office.

The UK is a country that attaches great importance to espionage activities, and its espionage work has a long historical tradition.

As early as the seventeenth century, a considerable intelligence agency had been established, and it was the originator of modern Western spies.

On the eve of World War II, SIS merged with the British Army's MI6 to become the most famous foreign military intelligence organization in the UK and even the world.

Mi6, which is the spy unit where 007 is located in later movies, is known as the world's four major intelligence agencies along with the CIA of the United States, the KGB of the Soviet Union, and the Mossad of Israel.

sis, at this period, it is only a foreign strategic intelligence agency under the leadership of the British Prime Minister's Office, implementing Britain's foreign colonial policies.

Britain is an old imperialist country with many colonies around the world and is known as the empire on which the sun never sets.

Of course, Britain wanted to monopolize the Qing Dynasty, but it was obviously impossible to swallow it for a while. Therefore, it temporarily did not allow others to carve up the Qing Dynasty, especially the greedy and ugly Japanese country.

The British government's established policy towards the Qing Dynasty is to strive to expand the sphere of influence of the British Empire and require the Qing government to open its doors.

Britain's open-door policy was recognized by France, which was also an established imperialist at the time, and especially by the emerging imperialist, the United States of America.

The Three Kingdoms Alliance of Britain, France, and the United States demanded that the Qing Dynasty be opened to the outside world, and to a certain extent, in this maelstrom of flesh and blood, the Qing Dynasty was spared the disaster of being partitioned.

The open-door proposition of Britain, France and the United States is completely contrary to Japan's partition proposition.

Western countries, represented by Britain, France and the United States, all think that this East Asian island country is ugly, and they are not only disgusted with it, but also want to restrict its expansion.

From this, Chen Tianhua believed that the Japanese island country's attempt to use despicable means to monopolize the Changxing Yaojin Mine was related to his comprehensive exploration of the geology and landforms of the Qing Dynasty.

Facts revealed in later generations show that there is a huge underground black gold between Changxing County in Zhejiang Province and Guangde County in Anhui Province, which is the Changguang Coal Mine that has been excavated for more than 70 years in later generations.

This is the largest coal mine in East China with a reserve capacity of billions of tons. From the fact that the Japanese exploration team discovered Niutoushan this time, it should be shown that a year ago, the Japanese had learned about the underground resources in this area.

perhaps.

For the Oriental island countries that have been short of underground resources for a long time, the East China region of the Qing Dynasty was a very prosperous area, which was a very attractive piece of fat.

But it is this underground coal mine that was first discovered by Meishan Town in Changxing. Two years ago, the British took the lead and took the lead in investing in large-scale mining.

Although this underground mineral deposit is located in Changxing and Guangde, the underground is connected together.

The secret of this reserve will be discovered by the British sooner or later with the deepening of mining.

The only way is to find a way to control the Changxing coal mine led by the British before this secret is unearthed.

Based on Chen Tianhua's current guess, perhaps the Japanese had also begun negotiating with several major investors, including the Englishman Charlie and the Qing nationals Liu and Zhang, to acquire the Changxing coal mine.

But in the end, the two parties did not reach an agreement, and the specific reasons are currently unknown.

But one thing, Chen Tianhua can guess, maybe the British Charlie and others also discovered clues about the amazing reserves of Changxing Coal Mine.

Such an important coal mine plays a decisive role in the development of Jiangnan, especially Shanghai, a free trade port open to the outside world.

How could this national interest of the British Empire be transferred to the Japanese?

In fact, the proven reserves in Meishan Town, Changxing, only account for less than 15% of the entire Changguang Coal Mine, which is completely the tip of the iceberg.

When Charlie and others went to Meishan Town for an on-the-spot investigation, Chen Tianhua estimated that among the missing persons were not only the three major investors, but also British geological experts, other followers, and more than a dozen people.

They are going to further implement the prediction of underground reserves in Changxing Coal Mine.

These dozen people disappeared secretly in Meishan Town. This was a despicable plan by the Japanese to jump over the wall when the acquisition failed.

This is completely in line with the behavior of the Oriental people of that era, who would do whatever it takes to achieve their goals.

The specific perpetrators should be Jianghu gangs.

At first, the British only thought it was a bad kidnapping case. Later, they discovered that Changxing Coal Mine had lost control. They realized that it was a long-planned conspiracy, but it was too late.

Of course they knew who did it, but they didn't have any evidence.

The British are of course unwilling to suffer the consequences of being dumb.

This is not only a significant loss to some private investment interests, but also related to Britain's national interests and strategic goals in the Far East.

SIS intervened, and then sent Allen to Changxing and Meishan Town to collect important evidence as a newlywed and traveling.

But there is no airtight wall in the world. The British have spies, don’t the Japanese have them?

In the name of a wedding trip, the Allens were actually collecting important evidence, which was soon captured by the Japanese. The Allens were arrested in Meishan Town. This was an inevitable result.

At this point of logical reasoning, what Chen Tianhua still doesn't understand is that after the Allens were arrested, the mining area security team could have easily killed and silenced them and disappeared.

But they did not do this, and instead launched a secret interrogation.

Obviously, the Allens have obtained important clues and evidence regarding the mysterious disappearance of Charlie and his party.

Therefore, the security team had to conduct an interrogation first, or wait for the final instructions from the mining headquarters before they dared to take action.

But no one expected that Cheng Yaojin would appear halfway. There was no order from the mining headquarters, but Chen Tianhua arrived first.

What Chen Tianhua didn't expect was that the key Allen died first.

"Yunyuan, when you were arrested, what important evidence was seized by the security team?" Chen Tianhua asked.

"No, the films confiscated were all taken along the way, including photos of the local customs, beautiful scenery, and photos of Allen and I's personal life." Xu Yunyuan only thought for a few seconds before replying firmly.

"Then please recall, before you were arrested, did Allen tell you where to put some important things?" Chen Tianhua continued to ask.

"It seems not."

Xu Yunyuan's expression didn't look like she was lying.

Allen did not tell Xu Yunyuan this. Based on Chen Tianhua's professional experience, there was only one reason, and that was to protect Xu Yunyuan, and at the same time, to better protect the security of evidence.

Allen and Xu Yunyuan were arrested at the same time. Allen is a professional spy. He can withstand punishment and refuses to say anything, but Xu Yunyuan is different.

A piece of white paper, no matter how much you toss it, is still a piece of white paper.

Xu Yunyuan has not received special training. If she has no secrets in her heart, no matter how she interrogates and intimidates her, she still doesn't know.

From her micro-expressions, the details of her answers, etc., it was immediately obvious that the interrogator was no fool.
