The first thousand one hundred and eighty-seven chapters are in danger
"When Prime Minister Tojo resigned, I knew I couldn't stay at the Tokyo Military Police Headquarters. Perhaps because I didn't want to embarrass Prime Minister Tojo, I waited for more than four months before I was assigned to Shanghai, and I was said to be an imperial
The best position in the army military police system is an absolutely lucrative position!" Sifang Liangji said with a wry smile.
That night, Chen Mingxiang held a banquet at his home to entertain two senior military police officials, Shifang Rōji and Kato Tomarijiro. Although Wang Zhen couldn't come out to help, there was a chef and a maid, so it wasn't too much trouble.
"Perhaps the gendarmerie headquarters in Shanghai was indeed a vacancy in our army gendarmerie system in the past. This is not a lie. But now, according to the time of Miura Saburo and Kinoshita Sakaeichi, it is already too far behind. Mr. Chen
He is the direct person in charge, am I right?" Kato Tomarijiro said.
"I began to accept the task of the gendarmerie in the 28th year of the Republic of China. I conducted secret smuggling transactions for the imperial and mountainous government-controlled areas, mainly in exchange for strategic materials such as tung oil, rosin, bristles, tungsten ore, and timber from the Southwest."
"In the 29th and 30th years of the Republic of China, the scale of transactions was not very large. It was only tens of millions of French currency every year. In fact, the best was in the 31st and 32nd years of the Republic of China, with an average monthly amount of
There are tens of millions of French currency, and last year the data was particularly conspicuous because of the order related to the Eastern Army General Headquarters."
"Starting from the first half of this year, due to the impact of the war, the empire withdrew a large amount of materials from the Shanghai market, especially the most important cotton cloth and cotton yarn in the transaction, resulting in a sharp decline in quantity. For this reason, I also closed two textile factories.
The remaining one is half dead, and the cotton is controlled by Japanese companies."
"Now, my transactions with the Military Control Bureau have dropped to several hundred million a month. Note that this is converted in China Reserve Bonds, which is equal to the previous few million. The profit is pitifully small. I provided it to the Military Police.
Nothing more than a small profit from coal and salt."
"Huatong Trading Company has become a useless piece of food. It's a pity to throw it away. It can barely survive. There are very few supplies on the market, and they are some civilian supplies. It is estimated that even the gasoline for the fleet will be a problem."
Chen Mingxiang said.
He accepted Matsui Tataro's persuasion and did not close Huatong Trading Company. Now it is just a decoration. The smuggling business can only make pocket money at most. In the next step, the purchasing stations and branches in various provinces may all be converted into his subordinates.
Business organizations are actually undergoing transformation.
In the Japanese military police system's impression of the gendarmerie headquarters in Shanghai, although Chen Mingxiang is the operator of Huatong Trading Company, he only accounts for 20% of the profits. The gendarmerie accounts for more than half, and the rest
They are all separated at various checkpoints.
"It's amazing. No wonder they say that the military police in Central China are extremely rich. It's really true. The transaction volume is tens of millions a month. This will bring huge benefits. Kinoshita-kun is at a good time.
"Sifang Liang'er said with a smile, but the meaning in his words was somewhat meaningful.
As an invader who launched a criminal war, it was a common phenomenon to plunder wealth in occupied areas. Kinoshita Sakaeichi did not embezzle the empire's funds, and he had some private income, so he could not say anything.
"Sifang Jun, Chen Jun is also a member of the military police system. I want to remind you that this is in the occupied area, not the homeland. Don't care too much about some things, but take the initiative to maintain them. The military police in Central China are used to the current life.
If you intervene, it will touch the personal interests of your subordinates, which will be very detrimental to your work." Kato Tomarijiro said.
"I understand what you mean. Both of us were promoted by Prime Minister Tojo. Now that the Prime Minister has lost power and stepped down, we have no support behind us. People have to bow their heads under the roof. I understand the reason."
"Chen Jun, I have been relying on you to support this situation. I will ask for your help in the future. As for my words, I can't be too straightforward. I believe you can understand." Sifang Lianger said.
To put it harshly, things that seek personal gain belong to group interests. If he wants to operate in Central China, he can only turn a blind eye. The Japanese army is accustomed to subjugating superiors. Although it is not possible in the military police system, in the end it is responsible
Those in charge of military discipline can join forces to evade the chief officer. This phenomenon is very likely to happen.
In the past, when Tojo Hideki was in power, Shifang Rangji would have dared to purge the senior officers of the headquarters. But when the backstage collapsed, he had no confidence. What's more, he was assigned to Shanghai without any thought.
No matter how much achievements you want to make, if you get into this position, being honest is better than anything else.
Now that everyone has unified their thinking, the handover of work at the gendarmerie headquarters in Shanghai will proceed slowly and in an orderly manner. If you have a boss who understands the truth, the atmosphere will be more harmonious when you get along.
Chen Mingxiang's four freighters quickly unloaded their anchors and headed for Jincheng after Kato Tomarijiro left. As long as the Peiping branch and Jincheng offices contacted the military police, Kato Tomarijiro would naturally complete the formalities for the front army headquarters.
.
"I haven't found anything unusual until now. Basically every few days at Chen Mingxiang's home, there are senior generals from the Imperial Army, eating, drinking, and chatting. The relationship is very close. The one who has the most contacts is the Marine Corps Commander.
The three military agencies are the Ministry, the Commander of the Gendarmerie and the Headquarters of the Thirteenth Army.”
"Director, I heard that when these imperial generals were chatting, they were quite pessimistic about the development of the war situation. Because of the battle of the Mariana Islands and the naval battle of Leyte Gulf, they were not optimistic about the future of the empire. Maybe they were worried.
, anyway, these remarks are not consistent with their identities."
"On the contrary, Chen Mingxiang has always had great expectations for the empire's war. This may be due to his own problems. He has no way out. If the empire fails, based on his current status and position, he will sooner or later be killed by the mountain city government.
Liquidated." Wang Meilin said.
Lieutenant Colonel Kitazawa Ping, the director of the Mei Agency's intelligence team, officially returned to his base in Shanghai after the Japanese army launched the Battle of Henan, Hunan and Guangxi. He secretly met with secret intelligence agent Wang Meilin and wanted to know the situation of Mara Villa in the recent period.
How about it.
But he felt very regretful. As a well-trained imperial agent, Wang Meilin did not notice anything unusual. Kitazawa once again felt that his judgment was wrong. He believed that the agents trained by the Imperial Nakano School were extremely good.
But in fact, this is because Chen Mingxiang only let Wang Meilin hear what she should hear. So what if she is an agent trained by drills at the Japanese Intelligence School? Chen Mingxiang and Wang Zhen are both agents, and they are also agents carefully trained by the Military Command Bureau.
