The first thousand and forty-three chapters have no regrets to eat six
"You went to the Marine Corps Headquarters to attend a cocktail party tonight. You seem to be in a good mood. Did you receive any good news?" Wang Zhen asked with a smile.
Tonight, the Marine Corps Command held an internal farewell reception for the former commander, Lieutenant General Kakuzaburo Makita, and specially invited "old friend" Chen Mingxiang to attend.
The Marine Corps Command is an important force of the Navy in Shanghai, and it is also involved in the Navy's material procurement. Taking this opportunity, the new and old commanders need to hand over the relationship between Chen Mingxiang. The key is that it involves great interests.
Relying on the strategic materials provided by Huatong Trading Company or Chen Mingxiang to the Navy, the senior generals or assistant officers of the Marine Corps Command will definitely earn a lot of money. This kind of collective interest must be maintained and continued by the new commander.
Go down.
"I have a hunch that this evil war will be completely over in at least two to three years and at most four to five years. Japan itself can no longer afford the cost of the war. The new commander, Major General Ohno Ichiro, will talk tonight
He has learned a lot about the domestic situation in Japan, and even the military generals are not very optimistic about the development of the war."
"After the United States ended the Guadalcanal War, it has not taken any large-scale military action, and the war situation has become somewhat confusing. However, according to current military intelligence, the U.S. Navy is gathering and mobilizing, indicating that a new round of battle will soon break out."
"The situation of the Japanese Navy is very unfavorable. The key is that compared with the old capitalist countries like the United States, domestic industrial strength has irreparable shortcomings. This year alone, the U.S. Navy has more than a dozen aircraft carriers commissioned, including small ones.
Aircraft carriers and main aircraft carriers.”
"However, due to the impact of the long-term war, Japan's domestic resources are scarce, and various raw materials are in short supply. The lost aircraft carriers and carrier-based aircraft cannot be replenished in time, not to mention the crew and carrier-based aircraft pilots. This cannot be cultivated overnight.
.”
"If the U.S. military continues to attack Japan, it will exacerbate this disadvantage and eventually drag down Japan's war potential. When its own resources are exhausted, the war will end." Chen Mingxiang said.
Lieutenant General Kakusaburo Makita introduced the new commander, Rear Admiral Ohno Ichiro, to him this evening and had a long conversation.
In view of Chen Mingxiang's "close" relationship with the Marine Corps, Ohno Ichiro had no scruples when speaking, let alone high-profile matters. He told the truth unless military secrets were involved.
The strength of the Chinese Fleet Command has been greatly reduced due to the navy's repeated defeats. All decent warships have been transferred back to the country to participate in homeland defense, but the Marine Corps has not changed much.
Rear Admiral Ohno Ichiro will continue his previous tasks. In addition to working with the Army to safeguard Japan's interests in Shanghai, the other is to purchase large quantities of supplies for the Navy. Under such circumstances, money is not the most important thing.
Near noon the next day, information from the Political Security Bureau reached Chen Mingxiang's ears. The Investigation Section and Intelligence Section of the First Bureau included people from the Action Brigade and Security Brigade of the Shanghai Experimental Zone, and Zhang Jinlu was very familiar with them.
, plus the operation is over, you will know what happened as soon as you ask.
"Director, early this morning, people from the first round raided a small village located in the southeast corner of Yancang Town, where the first brigade of the Pudong Action Corps of the Loyalty and Salvation Army is based. After a fierce battle, six were captured alive in the first round.
Four others were seriously injured, and sixteen people were killed in the battle, including the lieutenant colonel and the inspector. Only the deputy captain evacuated safely with some documents, and the radio station was also seized," Zhang Jinlu reported.
"Wan Lilang's feud with the Military Command Bureau this time is probably unsolvable. With such a heavy loss, the Loyalty and Salvation Army is crazy and wants to kill him. I will go to the gendarmerie headquarters and talk to Section Chief Gangcun.
Talking about this matter, Wan Lilang must have reported it to the Mei agency." Chen Mingxiang said.
The Loyalty and National Salvation Army is the armed special force of the Military Command Bureau. Its performance during the Anti-Japanese War was remarkable. Especially for these troops in Shanghai, their will was not broken by multiple joint raids by the Japanese and puppet troops, and they always persisted in fighting.
.
The brigade headquarters was raided and all the brigade captains were killed, which meant that the command system was paralyzed, which would seriously affect the brigade's combat effectiveness.
"When I came here just now, I met Luo Mengxiang, the deputy director of the first bureau in the parking lot. He said that Wan Lilang had gone to Hangzhou on urgent matters. He asked me to convey that he hoped to visit you. I feel that he and Wan Lilang are not the same person.
What do you mean by the style of doing things?" Zhang Jinlu asked.
"Hmph, it should be said that Luo Mengxiang is smarter than Wan Lilang. Tell him that now is the time for the Political Security Bureau to make contributions. If there is anything you can tell him, there will be plenty of time to meet when the situation is stable!" Chen Mingxiang said.
After listening to Chen Mingxiang's introduction in the office, Okamura Shizo's originally gloomy face turned livid in an instant. He had somewhat neglected the Political Security Bureau. He did not expect that Wan Lilang would act so quickly. The agencies in various places had not yet
After forming the team, I couldn’t wait to prove myself.
Regarding the Political Security Bureau's crackdown on the Military Unification Bureau's forces in Shanghai, Okamura Mikizo certainly has no objection. This also protects Japan's interests in the Shanghai market. It is a great good thing and should be supported.
But the worst thing is that the performance of the Political Security Bureau and the incompetence of the Special Higher Education Course have created a strong contrast to the top Japanese military officials. Why did the Political Security Bureau have such results when it was just established? The Special Higher Education Course is in Shanghai, but there is no such thing.
As for the highlights, the first one to bear the brunt is naturally him as the superintendent of the department.
"Chen Jun, you did a good job. You were able to get the inside information about what happened in the Shanghai stock market in the shortest time and report it to me. This also prevented me from being passive to a certain extent. The general knew this information. I
I didn’t understand anything, this is an unforgivable mistake!”
"Yesterday morning, we raided the secret radio station of the Military Unification Bureau, and early this morning we arrested the team headquarters of the First Battalion under the Pudong Action Corps of the Loyalty and National Salvation Army. We probably pried open the mouth of the radio operator and asked for important clues. This is also the case for Wanli
Lang’s usual methods.”
"But this bastard didn't make any report to me. He thought he had the support of the Mei Agency, so he ignored the authority of the Imperial Army Military Police!" Okamura Shizo said through gritted teeth.
At this moment, the phone on his desk rang. It was Kinoshita Eichi, asking him to come to the commander's office immediately.
Kinoshita Sakaeichi's face was also clouded. Kenshiro Shibayama had just introduced the two operations of the Political Security Bureau in Shanghai at the meeting of the Mei Agency. He greatly praised Wan Lilang's ability and believed that the Mei Agency had got it right.
People, we also need to suggest to the Jinling government to ask for credit for Wanli Lang and the Political Security Bureau!
As soon as the meeting ended, someone from the military police department in Mei called Kinoshita Sakae City and gave a detailed introduction to Wan Lilang's actions in the Shanghai stock market.
It is estimated that this was Shibayama Kenshiro's original intention, to use this opportunity to slap the military police in the face. As the commander, he was very dissatisfied with the work of the Special High School Division.
