On July 7th, Commander-in-Chief Nishio Hisao of the Japanese Expeditionary Forces will come to Shanghai for inspection?
Li Shiqun was dumbfounded and thought this matter was very ridiculous. When was July 7th? It was the third anniversary of the July 7th Incident. The Japanese army should keep a low profile. Is this Nishio Hiszo's brain flooded?
"Your Excellency Lieutenant Colonel, isn't there something wrong with Commander-in-Chief Xiwei's actions? This may intensify conflicts and cause trouble in the Shanghai stock market." Li Shiqun said.
Nishio Juzo went to the Shanghai stock market to show off. Logically speaking, it was none of Li Shiqun's business, but if there was social unrest in the Shanghai stock market, the secret service headquarters would be very busy.
"I also know it's inappropriate, but unfortunately, even General Yingzuo can only watch on the sidelines. We can't guess what the big shot is thinking!" Lieutenant Commander Qingqi said helplessly.
Although the shadow assistant of the Mei Agency has a lot of power in China, it is really not enough to be considered by the top brass of the army. Hiszo Nishio is the commander-in-chief of the Japanese invasion force and the commander of the Thirteenth Army. That is absolutely
of big shots.
"Damn it, is this commander-in-chief's head caught in the door? He chose this time to come to Shanghai for inspection, clearly to provoke. If the people in the military command know the news, then it's possible that something will happen.
, didn’t they force our secret service headquarters to hang themselves?” Chen Mingxiang cursed bitterly at Li Shiqun’s home.
It turned out that this incident was related to Nishio Juzo's inspection. Li Shiqun did not have as many channels as him and could not figure out the whole story. However, he connected all the information and got a rough outline.
But there is another point that does not make sense. Such an operation should not be personally directed by the commander-in-chief of the dispatched army, right?
Even if they attack the concessions, there is basically no resistance in the British, American and French concessions. The US and British troops have already evacuated. The war in Europe is very tense. The Marine Corps can also take care of the concessions.
.
"Who knows, we don't understand the Japanese affairs. Starting from tomorrow, the secret service headquarters will enter a state of tension. The July 7th Incident has stimulated the people too much to prevent anything from happening. The city government will hold a meeting tonight, and the military police will
The headquarters, police station and special agent headquarters all need to participate," Li Shiqun said.
Sitting in the office of the Third Fleet Headquarters were Shitaro Shimada, Saburo Miura, Yunzi Minamizo, Major General Matsue and others. This was an extremely secret meeting. Its goal was to annex the concession in one go with the help of an incredible plan.
.
This plan was proposed by Saburo Miura. To this end, he also received strong cooperation from the Navy. This is why he appeared at the base headquarters.
Why should the Navy support it?
The reason is actually very simple. There are two. One is to watch the Army's jokes. It has become a habit for the Navy and the Army to bite dogs, and there is no excitement. But the Army bites itself, and the feeling is so good.
Secondly, the navy also hopes to expand the scale of the war. The army has fought bloody battles in China, but the navy has no place to use it. The few broken ships of the Yamashiro government are far from the opponents of the Imperial Japanese Navy fleet. It is not a competition at the same level, so
I'm also going to show off my muscles and give myself a sense of presence.
"Yunzi has found a group of killers in Shanghai. They all have accurate marksmanship and want money rather than life. They are equipped with snares made in the United States. When Nishio enters the hotel, he will throw grenades to kill him!"
"To be on the safe side, I arranged for two squads of plainclothes military police to follow them. Once they had completed their mission, they would be shot to death immediately. If they failed, the military police would take remedial measures and shoot Nishio," Miura Saburo said.
Speaking of the relationship between Miura Saburo and Nishio Hiszo, it can be said that water and fire are incompatible, and it is not possible to freeze three feet in a day, and everyone has known about the commotion for a long time.
Miura Saburo believed that Hisao Nishio was a fake aristocrat who was bought with money. He took the private benefits of Japanese companies but pretended to be aloof. He was a typical hypocrite.
Nishio Juzou believed that Miura Saburo was greedy and shameless, and was simply a bandit bully who extorted money from the Shanghai market and participated in smuggling cigarettes. Such a person was not worthy of being a general of the Japanese Imperial Army.
He wanted to get rid of Saburo Miura many times, but he also had some leverage. This high-profile inspection in Shanghai not only provoked the sentiments of the Chinese people, but also made it clear that he wanted to slap Saburo Miura in the face.
If there was a conflict or quarrel between the two and Nishio Hiszo made a request to the Army Ministry, Miura Saburo would definitely be removed from his post. This was the advantage of the commander-in-chief of the dispatched army.
Miura Saburo thought of this method, sent someone to assassinate Nishio Juzo, and then took the opportunity to occupy the concession. According to the army's consistent thinking, his behavior will definitely be forgiven, and he may even be rewarded!
This is the main reason why the navy is laughing. Major General Miura Saburo, the military police commander of the Army's Thirteenth Army Military Police Headquarters, actually wants to murder the commander-in-chief of the dispatched army and the commander of the Thirteenth Army. Just thinking about it makes people's blood boil. It is a once-in-a-lifetime event.
ah!
The Navy doesn't have a good impression of Nishio Hiszo. This man is too arrogant and doesn't care about what happens. If it causes public outrage and causes the Chinese to kill Japanese expatriates, who will bear the consequences? Paralyzed, Japanese War Zone
But the Marine Corps is responsible!
"At ten o'clock in the morning on July 7, the Third Fleet began to mobilize and assembled on the river to prepare for the artillery bombardment. Intelligence personnel had already measured the coordinates. As long as the concession gave a signal, the Marine Corps would immediately launch an attack. With the current Anglo-American concession
With the defensive capabilities, the battle can be over in half an hour." Shimada said confidently.
Until July 5th, Chen Mingxiang still did not discover the problem. There was no movement from the Japanese army, the fleet did not leave the port, and the Marine Corps did not gather on standby.
But there are some things that cannot be calculated despite all calculations. No one expected that Chen Mingxiang's doubts would be solved by Wu Sibao.
"Director Chen, when we were drinking last night, I heard from two brothers from the Qing Gang that Nan Zao Yunzi, the section chief of the Special Higher Education Course, has been in frequent contact with a group of professional killers recently, and I don't know what he is doing!" Wu Sibao said.
The Qing Gang had a large number of people in the local area and was the most well-informed. Miura Saburo and Nanzo Yunzi thought that what they did was very covert, but unexpectedly they were noticed by the Qing Gang and took it to heart, so they told Wu Sibao.
Nishio Juzo is coming to Shanghai, Miura Saburo has a grudge against him, Minami Yunzi hires a killer, the Marine Corps is preparing to attack the concession, Miura Saburo and Minami Yunzi have been to the Third Fleet Headquarters!
All these things were connected together, and Chen Mingxiang discovered a surprising thing. Miura Saburo actually wanted to assassinate Nishio Juzo, and then used this excuse to attack the concession!
