Yingzuo Zhenzhao was obviously a little dissatisfied with the old man's answer. He frowned and asked again: "How strong does it mean to be very strong?"
The old man pondered for a moment and said: "It's equivalent to a black belt in judo, or almost the seventh-dan level in kendo."
"A black belt in judo or a seventh-dan in kendo?" Yingzuo Zhenzhao heard this, with a slightly disappointed look on his face.
The old man noticed the strange look on Yingzuo Zhenzhao's expression, and asked: "Kingzuo Jun, you seem to hope that this Liang Wuyi will be a great master. Why is that? From the standpoint of us Japanese, we should not hope that every Chinese
People are stupid pigs, so will this make it easier for the empire to rule them effectively?"
Kage Sasaki shook his head and said, "Teacher Kato, your idea is outdated."
After a pause, Yingzuo Zhenzhao continued: "China is too big and there are too many Chinese people. The imperial army alone cannot control such a large land and such a large population. Therefore, if we want to achieve control over China,
Effective rule ultimately depends on the Chinese themselves, so I suggest to Mr. Kato that the kendo gym can recruit more Chinese disciples in the future."
"I will seriously consider your opinion, Mr. Yingzuo." The old man nodded solemnly and asked again, "However, Mr. Yingzuo, you still did not answer the question I just asked."
Yingzuo Zhenzhao shook his head and said: "This is just a ridiculous guess."
"A ridiculous guess?" the old man asked with dignity, "Can you tell me about it?"
"Of course." Yingzuo Zhenzhao nodded and said, "I suspect that this Liang Wuyi who suddenly appeared is probably a spy sent by Dameishan, or even Xu Rui himself! That's why I deliberately sent Kato to
Teacher, please come over. It is said that Teacher Kato has a pair of eagle eyes and can see through the opponent's strength without fighting. I just want to confirm my guesses through Teacher Kato. But from Teacher Kato's judgment, it can be seen that my
The suspicion is wrong, because Xu Rui’s strength is definitely more than a black belt in judo or a seventh-dan kendo level.”
"Ying Zuojun, is the Xu Rui you are talking about or the Xu Rui who killed Abe Gangyi?" The old man said solemnly.
"Yes." Yingzuo Zhenzhao said solemnly, "Apart from this Xu Rui, I'm afraid there will never be another Xu Rui."
"In this case, I can responsibly tell you that Liang Wuyi is definitely not Xu Rui." The old man said in a deep voice, "Because Xu Rui can kill Abe Gangyi, and his strength must be above the level of a purple belt in judo or tenth degree in kendo."
, and this Liang Wuyi, although he is also very strong, is still far away from being a purple belt in judo or tenth grade in kendo."
"Then I'm relieved." After Yingzuo Zhenzhao finished speaking, he said mockingly, "This is also my professional habit. I always doubt everything. Even if there is no question about a person's identity and origin, I will always have doubts about it.
Some very ridiculous associations, such as Liang Wuyi, is clearly Liang Hongzhi's nephew, but I still have unreasonable doubts."
The old man said: "Yingzuo-kun, this is your shortcoming, but it is also your advantage. That is why the empire and the military will send you to work in the Nakamura Agency, because only here can you maximize your potential."
The good thing is, although this Liang Wuyi cannot be Xu Rui, he may still have entanglements with Dameishan. I suggest you continue to investigate."
"Hai." Ying Zuozhenzhao paused and said, "I will do it."
(Dividing line)
Xu Rui didn't know this at this time.
After talking to Yingzuo Zhenzhao, Xu Rui went to the Finance Office of the Nakamura Agency to collect funds. When he returned to the Chinachem Hotel, it was already evening.
Wang Husheng, Liu Mei, and Jiangnan were all waiting for him, and Wu Han also came.
As soon as Xu Rui walked in, Wang Husheng asked eagerly: "Old Xu, how was the discussion with the Zhongcun Agency?"
Xu Rui said cheerfully: "Old Wang, the emperor still has hungry soldiers. If you don't give me food, you have to let me drink water, right?"
Liu Mei next to her poured a glass of water for Xu Rui.
Xu Rui stretched out his hand to take it and said with a smile: "Secretary Ye is better, unlike you, Mr. Wang, who is more wealthy than his mother's landowners. He wishes I could work non-stop without food or water."
Don’t drink.”
"What nonsense are you talking about?" Wang Husheng said angrily, "Hurry up, how are the talks going?"
"The conversation was very good, much better than you imagined." Xu Rui said, "There is a saying that when I was dozing off, someone brought me a pillow, and this kid was the one who gave me the pillow."
Wang Husheng immediately said: "So, the matter is settled?"
"It's done, the little devil not only agreed to me being the president of the East Asia Peace Promotion Association, but also gave our Peace Promotion Association the power to establish a secret service." Xu Rui said, "His grandma, the little devil has long been against Qi.
The 16th was dissatisfied, so he wanted to build the East Asia Peace Promotion Association into another spy agency. However, it is a good idea to let the two spy agencies compete in an open arena to promote each other's work. "
"Haha, God is really helping me!" Wang Husheng hit hard.
Next to them, Liu Mei, Jiang Nan and Wu Han also looked excited.
Because this means that the first step of the three-step plan, "establishing a foothold", has been successfully completed!
With the East Asia Peace Promotion Association as a public organization as a cover, the anti-Japanese armed forces behind enemy lines led by our party will have a hiding place. With the identity of the Secret Service, they can develop the armed forces more openly. In the long run, there will be no escape.
It takes half a year to raise an army of thousands of people.
Damn, I can have a good fight with the little devil again!
"By the way, the old devil Yingzuo gave us one million." After Xu Rui finished speaking, he took out the check worth one million from his pocket. However, this million was not legal tender, but
The Wang Puppet Government has just issued China Reserve Bonds, but it needs to be noted that China Reserve Bonds are now stronger than legal tender.
Wang Husheng took the check and said with a smile: "This little devil can do it. Give us the serial number and return it to others. Who knows how angry they will be when they find out that we are armed forces of the Chinese Communist Party?"
"Look at how bad you are, you can achieve this with just a small amount of money." Xu Rui curled his lips and said, "Lao Wang, Secretary Ye, Jiang Nan, and Dr. Wu, now we have to make a careful calculation of the next work.
How did it unfold? Let me briefly talk about my thoughts. This is what I think."
As Xu Rui said this, he motioned for everyone to sit around him.
Wang Husheng and others sat around one after another, but Wu Han stood still.
Xu Rui did not force it, and continued: "Now that we have the identity cover of the East Asia Peace Promotion Association, and the Japanese have given us the power to form a secret service, the next step is to recruit troops. We must be separated first."
All the armed personnel in various places were gathered back and asked to join the special forces of the Secret Service."
Wang Husheng said: "Old Xu, shouldn't we be more cautious about this?"
"No need." Xu Rui waved his hand and said, "Old Wang, you also know that these people are either veterans who have experienced hundreds of battles or tried and tested old party members. In the past two years, they were able to survive such difficult conditions and such a harsh environment.
If you persevere, things will be even better this time, and you must have confidence in our comrades."
Wang Husheng said: "It's not that I have no confidence in our comrades, I'm just worried that our comrades will suffer."
This is indeed what Wang Husheng is worried about. Although the conditions for fighting guerrillas are difficult, because it is an open activity, there are virtually no worries. However, once you join the secret service and become an agent on the secret front, you will have to bear responsibilities from now on. Sometimes in order to keep secrets
Keeping a secret requires greater sacrifice.
For example, Liu Mei, in order to keep the secret, could only watch her lover leave in anger.
If Wang Husheng hadn't been transferred back to work in Shanghai by accident, the two of them would have missed each other forever.
Xu Rui said: "There is no need to worry about this. We, the people from the Secret Service, will walk sideways on Shanghai Beach. From now on, we are the only ones who will provoke others, and no one will dare to provoke us anymore."
Wang Husheng said: "Okay, since you say so, then I will listen to you."
Xu Rui said: "Okay, then you, Secretary Ye, will be responsible for this work, and Dr. Wu will carry out the specific work. Because you two are old comrades of the Songhu detachment, it is most appropriate to leave this work to you."
Wu Han nodded, but Liu Mei said: "Commander Xu, as you just said, these old comrades of the Songhu detachment have no need to say that they have old revolutionary consciousness. Even if they die, they will never betray the secrets of the party and the organization.
But what I must say is that there are not many old comrades left in the Songhu detachment. There are only about twenty people in total, which is probably not enough to support such a huge organization as the Secret Service."
"Secretary Ye reminded you well, this is exactly the second question I want to talk about." Xu Rui said, "Recruit troops!"
"Recruiting troops?" Wang Husheng said, "Old Xu, are you a green-skinned gangster who wants to incorporate the Qinggang?"
"Qing Gang gangsters?" Xu Rui said, "Old Wang, you are overthinking. These Qing Gang gangsters are full of bad habits. They are either eating, drinking, gambling, or cheating. I would not think of recruiting these bastards unless my brain was kicked by a donkey."
In the revolutionary ranks, only our Chairman Chiang Kai-shek would recruit Youth Gang gangsters to form an armed thug team."
Wang Husheng asked again: "Then who do you plan to recruit? Ordinary people can't do it."
Xu Rui said in amusement: "Old Wang, have you forgotten that after the Battle of Songhu, at least 100,000 National Army wounded soldiers were stranded in the Shanghai Public Concession and the French Concession. Two years have passed, and even some of the wounded have recovered and returned to the army.
There are still tens of thousands of National Army veterans stranded in Shanghai!"
"That's right, how could I have forgotten this?" Wang Hu slapped his thigh fiercely and said excitedly, "So, our supply of troops will not be a problem in the future. These National Army veterans who participated in the Songhu Battle may be real
Veterans are by no means comparable to the strong men of the Thirty-Second Army, and their tactical qualities are absolutely unparalleled."
Liu Mei also said: "I have also met several veterans of the National Army. Because they lack the necessary livelihood skills, most of them can only make a living by selling coolies, and their lives are relatively difficult. Therefore, many veterans have embarked on evil paths.
But overall, these veterans are worth fighting for."
