"What a waste of participation! Shimada-kun, didn't you see the handcuffs on my hands? Kitazawa has kidnapped me and is taking me to the interrogation room for interrogation!" Chen Mingxiang said angrily.
The swear words at this time just vividly conveyed the mood. Normally, this should be the behavior. Anyone who is treated like this will not have a good temper.
"Shimada-kun, this is a matter for our Mei agency intelligence team. I hope that your Marine Corps will not interfere. Regarding Chen Jun's issue, I will explain it to the headquarters alone." Kitazawa said hurriedly.
Lieutenant Colonel Shimada immediately changed his face. With a wave of his hand, more than twenty Marines surrounded the car with guns in hand. The two heavy machine guns around him also quickly turned their guns.
"I'm too lazy to care about other people's affairs, but Chen Jun is different. He is the person in charge of material procurement at our Marine Corps Command. Kitazawa Ping, how dare you do such a thing, does the Military Police know?" Lieutenant Colonel Shimada
asked.
Although this was an act, Lieutenant Colonel Shimada was furious. Among the Chinese people in Shanghai, he was really a friend of Chen Mingxiang. Looking at the unsightly handcuffs, his eyes became very sharp.
How did things suddenly come to this point?
Kitai Zeping was a little depressed. He could have successfully captured Chen Mingxiang at the secret detention point and completed his arrangements before the news was leaked. Who would have thought that something went wrong at the Marine Corps checkpoint.
But at the current level, he can no longer retreat because he was too careless and actually told Chen Mingxiang about the identification of the underground party and the leakage of intelligence from the North China Front Army. This means that this is not a misunderstanding, but a well-founded fact.
arrest operation.
The biggest trouble is that if Chen Mingxiang is asked to confront or assist in the investigation, this is an honest matter, but the way he adopts it gives people a very bad feeling and has a strong smell of conspiracy.
"Chen Mingxiang is just a non-staff member of the gendarmerie, not a military police or intelligence officer of the empire. The intelligence team of the Mei Agency can choose when to notify the gendarmerie based on the progress of the case it has grasped." Kitazawa said without flinching.
The Mei Agency Intelligence Group has a very special status. It actually holds the power to coordinate and command the Japanese intelligence agencies in the entire central China region. The first one was Colonel Qingyin Qingyin, who was still a lieutenant colonel at that time. At its peak, it controlled the secret service headquarters and Shanghai
The city police department also has the power to control the super high school.
But Kitazawa Ping and Qingqi Qingyin are completely different. Back then, Qingqi Qingyin had indeed received clear instructions from the base camp to become the backstage boss of the secret service headquarters and the city police station, but Kitazapira did not have such a special status.
"You mean that the Mei Agency Intelligence Group has obtained enough evidence to prove that Chen Jun is an enemy of the empire?" Lieutenant Colonel Shimada asked coldly.
"Bei Zeping said that he captured an underground party and identified me as Chunfeng, an agent of the Military Command Bureau. He also said that while I was in Peiping, I secretly inquired about the military operations of the North China Front Army Headquarters against the underground party and passed on these military secrets.
I gave it to the underground party to take me to confrontation!" Chen Mingxiang said.
"If you have evidence, you still want to engage in these shady little tricks. Well, let's go to the place of detention together. I'll call the gendarmerie and ask them to send someone to supervise. Witnesses and physical evidence can be forged."
Yes, it is a basic skill for intelligence agencies to do this kind of thing!" Lieutenant Commander Shimada said.
He simply did not believe what evidence Bei Zeping had seized. This guy believed that Chen Mingxiang was an agent of the Military Command Bureau. The entire intelligence community in Shanghai knew about it, but there was never any valuable evidence. Therefore, in his judgment, this
Kitazawa must have jumped over the wall in a hurry.
First, the call was made to the duty room of the Military Police Headquarters, and then transferred to Lieutenant Colonel Okamura's dormitory. At this time, the four section chiefs were drinking and chatting together.
The war between Japan and the United States was not going well. The Fourteenth Front Army commanded by Philippine General Fengwen Yamashita could not stop the US military at all. The disparity in strength between the two sides was too great.
Seeing that the enemy was about to attack at their doorstep, they were naturally not in a good mood, but for such a major matter involving the country, a group of young military police officers could only hide and chat secretly, and could do nothing else.
.
"The current situation in the Philippines is very dangerous. I heard from the commanders of the Quartet that they received domestic news that the defenders of Leyte Island were almost completely wiped out. This was the strength of two divisions and an infantry brigade. Commander Suzuki led
The remaining strength is still resisting, but it can't last long!" Lieutenant Colonel Okamura said.
The Japanese army stationed on Leyte Island was Lieutenant General Sosaku Suzuki, commander of the 35th Army, who commanded Lieutenant General Makino Shiro's 16th Division and Lieutenant General Yamagata Kurihana's 26th Division.
There is also the 60th Infantry Brigade. With such a strong force configuration, it still did not stop the US military's landing battle.
Originally, the two sides were in a stalemate, but the U.S. Navy's powerful transportation capabilities sent the U.S. Army's 7th Division to the flank of Leyte Island for landing. The Japanese Navy was almost wiped out in the Battle of Leyte Gulf, and had no resistance and defense lines.
A breakthrough was quickly made.
Although Ryoji Shigata was demoted to Shanghai, he was a confidant of Hideki Tojo and had many connections within the army. It was not very difficult to get this news.
"The current environment is not the same as before. The enemy our imperial army faces is not the corrupt and incompetent mountain city government, but the United States, an old capitalist country! Their war potential far exceeds that of our empire, both in terms of technology and
In terms of industrial strength.”
"First, the Combined Fleet was defeated in the Battle of Leyte Gulf, and all its main forces were lost. Then I heard that the Army Air Force's aircraft could not stop the US military's new fighter jets. No matter how brave and fearless the Imperial pilots were, the gap was a fact." Yoshida
Lieutenant Colonel shook his head and said.
After all, there was nothing worth being happy about. While the four of them were drinking, they were all feeling angry, but they didn't know how to vent their anger. But at this moment, the phone in the dormitory rang.
"What? This bastard Kitazawahira dared to trap Chen Jun privately. He is defying the authority of the Imperial Japanese Military Police. Please Shimada-kun, please wait a moment, I will rush to the scene immediately!" Nakamura Okamura became anxious.
"Kita Zeping trapped Chen Jun, what's going on? Is he crazy?" Tsukamoto Kiyoshi was also jumping around. Maybe it was because of drinking, he felt his face was burning.
"This is a call from Lieutenant Colonel Shimada, the captain of the Marine Corps Command. When he was checking at the checkpoint just now, he accidentally intercepted Kitazawa Ping's car and actually found that Chen Jun had been arrested!"
"Bei Zeping now keeps saying that Chen Jun is an agent of the Military Command Bureau, codenamed Chunfeng, and he also has intelligence contacts with the underground party. This is nonsense!" Gangcun Zhongzuo said bitterly.
