Three hundred and sixtieth chapters blow the hair down
Chen Mingxiang is best at burning cold stoves. Although Ding Mocun has not received any real power positions until now, he still allocates a fund every month to ensure that his social activities are not affected.
What followed was the high-level movements of Wang's puppet government. Especially if any major events happened, he would get the news immediately. Gangcun Shaozu had been the director of the special high school since the Japanese army captured Shanghai. If he didn't have any
Resources, is it possible?
Although Chen Mingxiang's scope of activities is mainly in Shanghai, his mission scope covers the entire Wang Puppet Government's territory, including Jiangcheng. Once Major Gangcun arrives in Jiangxia, he can reach Jiangcheng.
"Chen Jun, although the imperial army has occupied most of the Shanghai city, the current situation in the concession is not optimistic. The military commanders and central commanders of the Shancheng government, as well as the underground party, are hiding in this overseas residence of Britain, the United States and France, and are constantly attacking
Create trouble for the empire."
"Especially those military elements were very active during this period. They assassinated many officers and soldiers of the imperial army, including an army major general and a navy colonel. They also caused some casualties among the people of the empire."
"The administrative authorities of the Public Settlement and the French Concession, for their so-called face, strongly resisted the imperial troops from entering the concession and arrested murderers and saboteurs."
"The problem is that due to the international situation, the empire cannot take too tough measures for the time being. What do you think of this matter?" Oka Katsuo asked.
After hearing these words, Akagi Shinyuki just smiled slightly, and then picked up the tea cup to drink tea. Kodama and Shifu also laughed, seeming to understand something.
"Sir, what we really need to deal with is the Public Concession. The French government behind the French Concession is a member of the Axis Powers organization and will not obstruct our actions."
"The public concessions of Britain and the United States, without the support of the two governments behind them, are just bluffs. The empire's control of the concessions is the general trend."
"The great strategy of the empire is not something that a person like me can guess at will. However, as long as the imperial army does not actually enter the concession, Britain and the United States will not care about private actions. There are many ways to achieve the goal." Chen Mingxiang calmly said.
said.
This is a test question that Okaki Katsuo gave himself. If he does well in the test, he will be reused in the Concession Police Department in the future and obtain a position of real power. If he does not do well in the test, it will be a different matter.
As long as Japan does not declare war on Britain and the United States, and the three countries officially break up with each other, the various intelligence agencies of the Japanese army stationed in Shanghai will not be able to take action against the public concessions.
However, the United States has not yet imposed an embargo on Japan, and the Japanese government does not want to provoke the United States. The Board of Directors of the Public Settlement Industry Bureau still has the ability to obstruct the Japanese troops stationed in Shanghai.
"Since Mr. Chen has an idea, let's talk about it and let's discuss it," Oka Katsuo said with a smile.
"First, since the military reunification elements have carried out assassinations against the imperial army, the imperial consulate general in Shanghai should put pressure on the concession administration, reduce their ability to intervene, and gain nominal control of the police department.
We must help the imperial army find the murderer."
"Second, the imperial members of the police department will increase their penetration into the subordinate patrol rooms, oust those senior British and American officials, and actually control the power of arrest, openly arrest the military elements, and suppress their space for activities."
"Third, concentrate the elites from various intelligence agencies such as the Japanese Army Ministry's secret service stationed in Shanghai, the Special High School Section of the Military Police Stationed in Shanghai, the Intelligence Division of the Marine Corps Headquarters, and the Special Agent Headquarters to form intelligence on the concession and implement seamless coverage."
"Okachi-kun and Chief Akagi will serve as the general responsible persons to form the highest command structure of the concession, coordinate the actions of various departments, and order the Special High School Section to strengthen the protection of important figures to prevent the military reunification elements from taking advantage of it again."
"We now have the home court advantage and have a good foundation laid by Chief Akagi. As long as we have enough patience, I think it will not be too difficult to clear out the latent forces in the concession." Chen Mingxiang said.
This is not his own original creation, nor is it deliberately creating problems for his comrades, but is a refinement and summary of the various methods adopted by the Japanese army at this stage.
Okaki Katsuo and Akagi Chiyuki are not easy to fool, and they will not be able to pass the test unless they come up with something real. Therefore, Chen Mingxiang did not hesitate at all. He needed the position of the police force as a basis.
The three senior Japanese officials present nodded frequently and felt much better about Chen Mingxiang. This was not due to his innovation, but because he had strong insight and was extremely astute. Especially the proposal by two senior officials from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs
The action of taking control of the concession just touched the plan hidden in the two people's hearts.
"It seems that Mr. Akagi and Director Okaki have a very good impression of you. It is a foregone conclusion that you will enter the Concession Police Station, otherwise they would not send you out personally." Kodama and Shifu said with a smile.
"What the director of the agency means is that I passed the assessment tonight?" Chen Mingxiang also knew that these things could not be hidden from the eyes of this old devil.
"You are not a professional agent, but you are able to sort out so much content. Your performance is more than passing, it is simply excellent. Chen Jun, I must congratulate you. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has long wanted to reflect its own value. This plan of yours is just right.
It's what they need most." Kodama and Shifu said.
Of course, he knows very well about the internal struggle in Japan. Foreign Minister Matsuoka Yosuke and Prime Minister Konoe Fumimaro are fighting to the death for Japan-US negotiations. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has been seeking to expand its influence, and even does not buy into the army and navy.
.
But the current Ministry of Foreign Affairs supports the navy's strategy of marching south. It can be said that both parties have the same opinion, so Kodama and Shifu can attend the banquet. Any seemingly simple move has a deep meaning behind it.
"Chen Mingxiang is indeed a very outstanding young man with a clear mind and quick thinking. Your Excellency has a very good vision. Find a suitable opportunity and let him work as an assistant to you in the police station!" Oka Katsuo waited until the guests left.
Said to Chiaki Akagi.
"Don't worry, I will observe for a few more days. After all, Chen Mingxiang is not a professional agent. I want to test his confidentiality. Moreover, his relationship is too complicated, so I also want to test his loyalty."
"Assistant is not suitable for this position. He currently has multiple responsibilities, especially the important task of smuggling strategic materials for the imperial army. He can be appointed as the director of the assistant office and contact the various military and police departments in Shanghai for us. I will put him in charge tonight.
This plan has been sorted out, and when all parties meet tomorrow, the matter will be finalized," said Chiaki Akagi.
In addition to the director and deputy director of the Police Department of the Ministry of Industry and Commerce Bureau, there is also an assistant director, who is a high-level person who assists the director and deputy director in their work, or is designated to be responsible for a certain task. The extent of power depends on visible authorization.
The police department has multiple deputy chiefs, one Japanese and one Chinese. As for this quota, it is natural to kick out the original Chinese deputy chief. With Chiaki Akagi's ability, that is what he can do.
