"Teacher!" Cheng Qianfan showed an impatient excitement. "The Empire rushed to the north, attacked the Soviet Union and spread the land for thousands of miles. Those European powers were repeatedly trampled by the Empire. When they thought of this grand scene, the students were trembling and excited."
"Although the Soviet Union and Russia are in turmoil in China, the Soviet Union is huge, and it is not easy for the empire to defeat it." Imamura Hitotaro seemed not as optimistic as his students, and said with a slightly solemn expression.
Miyazaki Kentaro, who has always respected his teacher and is obedient, has a rare attitude towards the teacher.
He retorted, "Teacher, don't enhance others' ambitions and destroy your own prestige."
Cheng Qianfan's eyes glowed, his expression was sensational, and he said, "The empire defeated the Qing Dynasty and the Tsarist Russia, and both of them were beaten to the point of being beaten by the empire. Now the Soviet Union will be vulnerable in front of the empire."
He waved his right arm excitedly, "No one can stop the empire's footsteps!"
Looking at Kentaro Miyazaki's passionate attitude and the fanatical expression in Kentaro Miyazaki's eyes, Imamura Hitotaro felt both relieved and a little inexplicable worry.
As the counselor of the Japanese Consulate General in Shanghai, Imamura Hitaro is already a senior diplomat with an extraordinary vision and is well aware of the situation in Japan, the military, and even some confidential situations in the cabinet.
Within the Japanese army, there have always been "navy factions" and "army factions", and the two major factions are incompatible and the contradictions are very profound.
The Army advocated the army heading north to join forces with the Germans, attacking them from east to west, and giving the Soviet Union a "sandwich biscuit".
The navy's idea was to go south to invade Malaysia, Singapore, and Australia, take advantage of the situation to take India and control the Indian Ocean, and then send troops to the Middle East to join forces with the German and Italian troops, and divide the world into three parts.
No, to be precise, it is to share the world with the Germans. Japan initially regarded the combat effectiveness of the Italians. However, the performance of the Italians in Ethiopia several years ago really surprised the military.
Go north?
Or go south?
The navy and the army were red in their faces and their ears were a little hesitant about this.
In this case, the military decided to make a tentative attack on the Soviet Union in the north. If the Soviet Union was vulnerable, it would add a heavy weight to the strategy of going north.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has no particular tendency to go north or south.
In addition, there is a voice within the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, which is that it advocates not to expand the war.
Of course, there are also voices within the Ministry of Foreign Affairs who strongly support the expansion of the war.
For the war in China, after the Wanping Incident, Foreign Minister Hirota advocated not to expand on one side, and openly supported the dispatch of troops. This contradictory behavior also caused chaos within the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to a certain extent.
Imamura Hitaro is a radical faction of expanding wars. However, although this counselor, who regards himself as a believer of Yoshida Matsuin, is radical, but not completely irrational.
During this period, he focused on the situation in the Soviet Union, especially after the Soviet Union's economic data, and he had some concerns about the military's northward strategy.
Nothing else, the heavy industry of the red polar bear is very powerful.
The military strength of the Locust Army is indeed stronger than that of the Soviet Union, but the empire must expect a quick victory. Once it cannot defeat the Soviet Union at the beginning of the war, it is very likely to fall into a tough battle.
Of course, it is difficult for students to explain the concerns in detail.
"It's great to be young!" Imamura Hitotaro looked at Kentaro Miyazaki. Instead of being angry because of the students' rebuttal, he nodded with a smile.
"Teacher." Cheng Qianfan came back from his agitation and showed a look of panic, "It was the student who was rude."
"It's okay!" Imamura Hitotaro showed emotion, "This is the vitality of young people! Seeing Kentaro, I seemed to see the hope and glorious future of the empire."
Cheng Qianfan lowered his head, looking respectful.
He originally thought of listening in depth and hitting the side, and it would be best to find out the Japanese army's relatively accurate attack time against the Soviet Union. However, this idea just flashed through his mind and he immediately rejected it.
Too much is too little!
He obtained information from Pete that the Japanese army was about to take action against the Soviet Union, and then immediately came to Imamura Hitaro for confirmation, which was carefully considered.
First, this move is equivalent to accidentally revealing to Imamura Hitotaro that the French are not confidential enough, mainly to set up a plan in advance to clear his suspicion. He does not think that he could not miss the information he learned from Pitt. If the news leaks in this operation today, the French will be the best scapegoat.
The second is to confirm that compared with what Pete, an intermediate officer in the French Concession, the words of Imamura Hitaro, the counselor of the Japanese Consulate General in Shanghai, are obvious to be "iron evidence".
Now, it is possible to confirm from senior diplomats like Imamura Hitaro that the Japanese army has decided to launch a military war against the Soviet Union, which is itself an extremely important military intelligence. As a lurker, remember not to be greedy for Shu.
...
"Check me three hours later." Cheng Qianfan got out of the car and ordered Li Hao.
"Brother Fan." Haozi looked hesitant.
"Is there something wrong?" Cheng Qianfan stopped and turned his head to ask.
"It's okay." Haozi squeezed out a smile and shook his head.
"Be more tight." Cheng Qianfan glared at Li Hao and said.
"I know." Haozi nodded, and when Brother Fan entered the courtyard, he sighed in a depressed sigh.
Brother Fan is good at everything, but he is too fickle.
Sister-in-law Bai Ruolan treats him like a brother, and Li Hao naturally tends to be inclined to his sister-in-law, and it is inevitable that he feels a little unfair about his sister-in-law.
However, if he had to tell his sister-in-law, he naturally couldn't do anything to betray Brother Fan, even if it was just such trivial matters.
only--
Thinking of the identity of the hostess in this house, Li Hao couldn't help but shake his head again.
Brother Fan is really...
...
Cheng Qianfan entered the yard, came to the door, and knocked on the door with a secret code of three long and three short.
The door opened, revealing Zhang Ping's charming and resentful face. The woman looked outside vigilantly, like a frightened rabbit.
"What's wrong? Where is the servant at home? He's like a thief?" Cheng Qianfan said teasingly, holding Zhang Ping's chin.
"Aren't you a thief? I asked the maids to go home." Zhang Ping looked at "Mr. Xiao Cheng" hatefully, pulled him into the door, and the door was closed, and all sounds were isolated.
When I entered the door, I saw that the windows in the hall had been curtained.
Comrade ‘Piano’ (Lao Huang), ‘Flying Fish’ (Lu Dazhang), ‘Abacus’ (Zhao Shuli), the three of them were sitting on the sofa and whispering. When they saw Comrade ‘Flame’ and ‘harmonic’ coming in, they were all holding back their laughter.
Especially Zhao Shuli, his expression was extremely strange and he looked funny and laughed.
Cheng Qianfan nodded and said, "Let everyone wait for a long time."
...
This is the third secret meeting of the French Concession Special Party Branch.
"Top secret information." After Cheng Qianfan sat down, he said straight to the point, "The Japanese side has decided to launch a war on the Northern Line."
Everyone's faces changed.
"Soviet Russia?" Zhang Ping asked.
"Yes, Japan has secretly contacted Britain and France. For the purpose of "stricken waters and diverts the east", Britain and France acquiesced to the Japanese to launch military operations against the Soviet Union."
"'The disaster flows eastward'?" Lu Dazhang said in a deep voice. He thought for a moment, and his eyes lit up, "Germany!"
Cheng Qianfan nodded and was amazed in his heart. He is worthy of being the "Flying Fish" of the Special Science and Technology Information Department.
"Britain and France have always adopted an appeasement policy against Germany, but in fact they are waiting for this opportunity. They expect that after Japan takes action against the Soviet Union, the Germans will be affected by this, give up plotting against Western Europe, and turn to the war to invade the Soviet Union." Cheng Qianfan said.
"Driving a tiger and swallowing the wolf, you are not afraid that the tiger will turn around and bite them." Zhao Shuli snorted coldly.
"Comrade 'harmonic'." Cheng Qianfan looked at Zhang Ping, his expression was extremely serious, "Please call!"
As Cheng Qianfan's power and influence in the French Concession became greater and greater, "Zhao Cheng" received more and more attention.
Comrade ‘Spark’ now has four radio stations, two of which are located in Chengfu, one of which is a commercial radio station with a preparatory ceremony in the French Concession, which is legal.
The other two radio stations, one of which was handed over to Zhang Ping, unless it was a 100,000-year-old telegram that needed Cheng Qianfan to risk sending it in person, usually Zhang Ping, the telegrapher, was responsible for telegram communication with the headquarters.
However, there are two sets of codebooks, one is jointly mastered by Zhang Ping and Cheng Qianfan, and the other is the highest-level codebook that only Cheng Qianfan masters. This is used by him to contact Comrade Xiangwu and Comrade Farmer independently.
"Reliable intelligence, the Japanese army has decided to open a second front and will soon launch troops against Su on the northern front, and Britain and France will make plans to "stricken waters and lead the eastward" and acquiesce it."
Zhang Ping dictated the telegram again, and after confirming it was correct, she went straight to the "telegram room" to send the news.
...
The few people were still digesting the shocking news that the Japanese were actually invading China while trying to open up a second battlefield and mobilized Soviet troops on the northern front.
"The Japanese are so brave that they have eaten the heart and leopards." Lu Dazhang shook his head.
The Soviet Union is the big brother of the red country, with extremely huge land area, economy and military strength. They cannot imagine that the Japanese would dare to provoke the Soviet Union again.
The so-called "re-time" is because the Japanese army broke out between the Zhanggufeng Battle with the Soviet Union last year.
The Battle of Zhanggufeng was a small and medium-sized battle between the Soviet and Japanese sides around Chinese territory.
After a thirteen-day battle, the Japanese army was finally defeated and the Japanese army took the initiative to make peace, which was equivalent to recognizing the legitimacy of the Soviet army's occupation of Zhang Gufeng.
After the Japanese retreat, the Soviet army regrouped and reoccupied the Chinese territory of Zhanggufeng.
Yes, Japan and the Soviet Union were at war, while China was the biggest victim of this battle last year.
"The Japanese think they are doing it again and plan to seek the Soviet Union to avenge their previous shame." Old Huang said with a sneer.
"The Japanese beat Tsarist Russia once back then, so they thought they could defeat the Soviet Union again?" Lu Dazhang took a sip of tea and frowned.
"This is a bet." Cheng Qianfan thought, "From my understanding of the Japanese, they, especially the Japanese military, have a strong betful nature."
"I agree with Comrade 'Flame''. When I was next to my sister and brother-in-law and organized the anti-Japanese volunteers on Baodao, my brother-in-law once commented on the Japanese." Zhao Shuli said in a deep voice.
Cheng Qianfan and the other three looked at Zhao Shuli, all wanting to hear how Comrade Feng Xiangqi viewed the Japanese during his lifetime.
Martyr Feng Xiangqi led the anti-Japanese movement on Baodao and conducted in-depth investigations and research on Japanese germism, and had a say.
"The military expansion of the Japanese people has been filled with gamblers' thoughts from the beginning."
"As a vassal state of the Qing Dynasty, Japan did not fear the prestige of the Qing Dynasty, bet on national destiny, and devoted its efforts to launch a war."
"The tragic song of Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895, the small island country defeated the overlord of East Asia, and the Japanese won the bet!"
"China lost its treasure island, North Korea."
"Then, the Russo-Japanese War was another gamble for Japan, and the little Japanese defeated Tsarist Russia."
"This big bet established the Japanese as the dominant position in Asia."
"After Sino-Japanese War, Russia-Japan-Russia (war) and world wars, Japan has repeatedly bet on its national destiny and has been the winners."
"The Taiwan-Peng Islands, the Korean Peninsula, the Southern Sakhalin Island and the original German colonies all fell into the hands of Japan."
"September 18th, Japan is actually gambling about the country's fate again. Zhang Hansheng did not resist, and the Kwantung Army easily occupied the four eastern provinces."
Zhao Shuli's tone was sad and looked at everyone, "The Japanese bet on national fortune four times, and they won four times."
Cheng Qianfan was silent. He thought to himself that it should have been five times. The fifth time the Japanese bet on national destiny was the Lugou Bridge Incident two years ago. However, Comrade Feng Xiangqi had already died for many years at that time, so he did not see this sad and indignant scene.
However, even so, his admiration for Comrade Feng Xiangqi has not diminished at all!
At the same time, my heart was so sad.
What an excellent comrade, he died under the butcher knife of the Japanese invaders!
"Just as Comrade Feng Xiangqi pointed out incisively, the Japanese gambling nature was fully revealed on their path to nationalism." Cheng Qianfan said in a deep voice, "They are used to enjoying the dividends brought by gambling on national destiny, or in other words, they even arrogantly believe that 'the destiny is in me'."
"Yes, maybe it is precisely because of this arrogant and fanatical mentality that the Japanese made the decision to go north." Lu Dazhang nodded and said.
Several people were silent.
Is the Japanese arrogant and arrogant attacking the Soviet Union?
The Japanese invaders occupied the huge territory of China, and billions of compatriots became slaves of the country. Such shame and pain cannot be expressed in words.
In the face of national crisis, revolutionaries only live to death!
...
"Old Zhao, tell me about your situation." Cheng Qianfan glanced at Zhao Shuli and asked.
Zhao Shuli "according to" Sanbenshilang's instructions, pretended to accept Qiu Xing's appeal, and was accepted by the secret service agencies behind Qiu Xing.
On this day, the special agency is code-named "Tian" and is called "Tian Agency".
The word "acceptance" was described by Zhao Shuli himself. His feeling was that although he joined the Tian agency, the Japanese were still wary of him and could not access deeper things for the time being. Therefore, he can only be regarded as being accepted by the secret agency and cannot be fully recognized.
"The person in charge of the 'Tian Agency' should have a very vigilant personality." Zhao Shuli thought, "Although I joined the 'Tian Agency', the connection with this 'Tian Agency is limited to Qiu Xing."
