Chapter 118 Formal establishment of the military
Dai Li's Secret Service was still nominally under the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics established by Chen Lifu under the Military Commission.For a short time in that winter, the Zhongtong was renamed "The Fourth Group of the Sixth Division of the Base Camp", and Xu En was once called the lieutenant general and the group leader.
Then, on March 29, 1938, Chiang announced at the Party Congress that the Central Bureau of Investigation and Statistics, or Zhongtong for short, was established as an office of the KMT Central Committee.This brand new organization was originally the first of the joint organization presided over by Chen Lifu and will be headed by Xu Enzeng.To be sure, most of its members and agents come from the intelligence service of the original organization.At the same time, the investigation office led by Dai Li (the second office of the former joint organization) still belonged to the Military Commission, but was renamed the "Military Commission Investigation and Statistics Bureau", or "Military Command" for short.As a result, Dai Li's military command was finally formally established.
