If it were the lives of the invaders, Chen Mingxiang would not have the slightest pity. To show mercy to the enemy would be to be cruel to oneself, but this is not the case for civilians.
After lunch, he went to the Xinjing branch to sign, sent a message to Wang Zhen, and then rushed to Bingcheng by car. There were two people he needed to meet here. One was Major General Akio Doi, the head of the Bingcheng secret service headquarters.
One is Lieutenant General Saburo Shibuya.
Akio Doi and Saburo Shibuya were waiting for him directly at the Ice City branch of Yamato Hotel. In addition to booking a room, they also prepared a table of Japanese wine and food.
Chen Mingxiang made it very clear that he would fly to Peiping at noon tomorrow. The transport plane was contacted by Akio Doi, so the conversation will be held tonight.
These two people also received 10,000 US dollars in red envelopes, five gold bars, and a box of red wine and cigars. There are almost no connections like him who are as generous as him.
In particular, the value of foreign exchange like the U.S. dollar is getting higher and higher now. If you have some in your hands, you can use it as capital to survive in the future. No one is willing to use it as a gift.
Chen Mingxiang receives a large sum of U.S. dollars from the embassies of the United Kingdom, the United States, and the Netherlands every month by providing protection to foreign expatriates. In other words, he is one of the very few people who can withdraw U.S. dollars at any time.
"It seems that the two generals are busy at work now, and they have been tired for a long time, which makes their faces look a little haggard. I'm surprised. Shibuya-kun is now in charge of teaching, and Doi-kun is in charge of intelligence work. How can such a heavy workload come about?
?" Chen Mingxiang said with a smile.
"When you arrived in Xinjing, you must have met Chief of Staff Yukio Kasahara and Minister Yoshitake Furuno. The headquarters was very busy all day preparing for the new army. Although we did not participate in this work, we did not have time to do it.
With."
"Chen Jun may not know where Shibuya-kun's Ice City Academy is, but it doesn't matter if I tell you. It is a professional institution for the empire to train agents. It is an agent specially responsible for sneaking into the Soviet Union to perform tasks. His responsibilities are very important.
.”
"And I, the entire Ice City Secret Service Headquarters and the Second Section of the General Headquarters, are also doing some intelligence collection work for the possible situation between the empire and the Soviet Union in the future." Doi Akio said.
Germany, which was the most powerful in the history of World War II, was about to be defeated by the joint efforts of Britain, the United States, France and the Soviet Union. There was no doubt about the outcome. Japan was worried that after the Soviet Union defeated Germany, it would turn around and deal with itself. After all, the United States and the Soviet Union
The Soviet Union is now an ally.
The key area of defense is the territory of the puppet Manchukuo, which borders the Soviet Union. The powerful Soviet army is by no means what the Kwantung Army can currently resist.
"The empire doesn't want to go to war with the Soviet Union, right? With all due respect, under the current situation, this is an unwise decision." Chen Mingxiang said deliberately.
"No, the Kwantung Army does not have the ability to attack the Soviet Union. On the contrary, we are preparing for the Soviet Union to launch an attack on Manchukuo. That will make the current unfavorable situation worse. In fact, it is considered an early warning measure. With the newly formed
Those divisions cannot fight against the powerful Soviet army." Saburo Shibuya shook his head and said.
The arrogant Kwantung Army generals could say such words, which also proves their own decline from the side. The current focus is to defend the homeland and prevent the US military from entering Tokyo. In other words, it is overjoyed that the Soviet Union does not attack the puppet Manchukuo.
Yes, starting a war is asking for death.
"I remember that the empire and the Soviet Union signed a neutrality treaty for five years. Calculating, there is still one and a half years left. There is no need to be too nervous now, right?" Chen Mingxiang said.
"Mr. Chen, treaties do not have much binding force in essence and can be stopped at any time. There is also a treaty between the Soviet Union and Germany, but what are the facts? Without strong force as the backing, the treaty is just a piece of waste paper.
!”
"Germany is about to be defeated. The Soviet Union has a large number of troops that have experienced actual combat, and its weapons and equipment have also been greatly developed. Among them, there is a lot of assistance from the United States and the United Kingdom. So after the war in Germany is over, the United Kingdom and the United States have
The Soviet Union may be asked to participate in the war against Japan."
"In order to prevent the Soviet army from suddenly launching a surprise attack on our Kwantung Army, the Kwantung Army Headquarters decided to strengthen defense forces, formulate response plans, and even considered moving all to Goryeo in the worst case scenario. Therefore, intelligence work is a top priority.
, grasping the trends in the Soviet Union is the basis for the headquarters to formulate plans." Akio Doi said.
Chen Mingxiang didn't get any more information in Bingcheng. He stayed for one night and inspected his property the next morning. He brought a batch of wild ginseng and fur purchased from various stores. After lunch, he rushed to the airport by car.
, boarded the plane to Peiping, Doi Akio and Shibuya Saburo specially went to the airport to see him off.
Those who came to greet the Japanese army at the Peiping Airport were Lieutenant General Shiozawa Kiyonori, Lieutenant General Kato Tomarijiro and Colonel Haruki, as well as the Superintendent of the Public Security Bureau of the North China Political Affairs Commission Mon Qingyuan. The lineup was very strong.
The group arrived at Yindingqiao's home. Several female staff from the Peking branch had already cleaned the house and served steaming refreshments. Although the temperature was not too low, there were four braziers in the house, which made it feel warm.
Yangyang.
"I would also like to thank the Police Supervisory Office for its support to the work of the Police Department. All the work of assigning trainees has been implemented. This is the first batch of graduates from the police academy. It is related to the image of the Police Department. I also ask the Supervisory Office to take care of it." Chen Mingxiang
Said with a smile.
"The North China Government Affairs Commission is an integral part of the Jinling government. The Police Department is the highest organization in the national police system. You are my direct superior. Executing orders is a matter of your own responsibility. How can I take care of you? Commissioner Chen, what instructions do you have in the future?
Please just tell me." Men Qingyuan said hurriedly.
He also saw how terrifying Chen Mingxiang's connections in North China were. There were actually two Japanese lieutenant generals and a Japanese colonel heading to the airport. These random people were something he couldn't afford to offend, and could even decide where he was going.
The fate of the North China Political Affairs Commission.
"Supervisor, if you have something to do, go and do it first. Tomorrow Chen Jun will go to the General Public Security Bureau for an inspection. Just be prepared." Colonel Qingqi said directly.
In the minds of the senior Japanese generals, Chen Mingxiang was a man of great use, and the relationship between them was extremely profound. However, the traitors of the North China Political Affairs Commission were not qualified to sit and talk with them.
The Consulate General in Peiping, represented by Kiyonori Shiozawa, and the North China Dispatch Military Police Headquarters, represented by Kato Tomarijiro, obtained astonishing benefits from Huatong Trading Company or Chen Mingxiang's business, while Colonel Haruki relied on his previous and
Chen Mingxiang's relationship always gives him a share of the benefits. These three people absolutely regard Chen Mingxiang in a different light.
