Four hundred and thirtieth chapters confusing eight
The first thing I do when I return to the hotel room is to recall and sort out today's gains. This is also a basic skill for a professional agent. Some subtle information can easily be ignored if you can't remember it at the time.
Lieutenant Commander Qingqi was quite strict and did not reveal the military secrets of the Mei Agency. However, Chen Mingxiang repeatedly recalled the conversation between the two and discovered some information.
Lieutenant Colonel Qingqi said that Saburo Totō's plan coincided with his own ideas. He also said that if the plan is implemented smoothly, it can greatly reduce the Yamashiro government's will to resist and even reverse the situation. It sounds vague, but carefully
It is speculated, but there are very obvious traces.
Chen Mingxiang suddenly stood up from the sofa, and his expression suddenly became very ugly. Although he was not panicked, this kind of expression was extremely rare.
What did he say then?
He said that the top officials of the mountain city government were not in the city, but were working in hard-to-find places. The bombing did not pose a threat to them.
It was the resistance of these people that reduced the effectiveness of the bombing. Apart from killing and injuring ordinary people, it failed to play a more important role.
Major General Saburo Entō of the Third Flying Group of the Japanese Army Air Force agreed with this view and based on this, he formulated a top-secret combat plan.
More importantly, Commander Qingqi pointed out that once the action is effective, it will reduce the Yamashiro government's will to resist and reverse the current unfavorable situation. So under what circumstances can this goal be achieved?
He picked up the phone in the room and was about to call Wang Zhen, but after thinking about it, he put it down again. Not to mention whether the phone calls between Suzhou and Shanghai could remain open, long-distance calls like this were likely to be blocked by extra-high school students.
monitor.
"Brother Mingxiang, let me introduce to you. This is Lieutenant Colonel Toshiharu Kaneji, the head of the Economic Secret Service of the Qingxiang Committee. This is the Military Police Colonel Shigefu Nobumi assigned to the Qingxiang Committee by the General Headquarters of the Dispatch Army. This is the commander of the Military Police of the Dispatch Army General Headquarters.
Major Kiyoshi Ogasawara, the staff officer of the Second Section, is responsible for the liaison between the Qingxiang Committee and the dispatched army headquarters." Li Shiqun said with a smile.
Now that I have come to Suzhou, I naturally have to show off to the location of the office. After all, I am also the economic commissioner and the director of the material blockade management office, and I am also a person with real power.
According to official rules, Chen Mingxiang, a subordinate who had just taken office two months after the establishment of the Qingxiang Committee, had to first report to the office of Li Shiqun, the secretary-general and director of the Suzhou office.
This was just a formality, a formalized procedure. This big traitor introduced him to several "overlords" of the Qingxiang Committee, who all had their own offices in the office.
Chen Mingxiang was really unfamiliar with Kaneji Shunji, who was in charge of economic supplies, and Ogasawara Kiyoshi, who contacted the dispatched army headquarters. He had never interacted with him before, but he had already known the name Shigeto Nobumi!
Kenfumi Shigeto turned out to be the military police captain of the Japanese Army's Central China Expeditionary Force. He was also a complete murderer, a beast without any humanity at all.
In just one year from November 27 to November 28, the Military Police of the Central China Expeditionary Army led by Shigeto Nobumi massacred more than 30,000 Chinese people. How amazing is this?
Terrifying numbers?
Gouging out eyes, skinning, chopping with knives, giving electric shocks, digging self-graves, the cruelty of his methods was appalling! The vicious behavior of this devil can no longer be described in words. Chen Mingxiang wished he could chop him into pieces and feed him to the dogs.
"Chen Jun, we belong to the same system. I have admired your name for a long time. You have brought great benefits to the Military Police Headquarters in Shanghai. Commanders Major General Miura Saburo and Major General Kinoshita Eiichi both praise you.
"Yes." Norifu Shigeto said with a smile, but he didn't put on any airs.
He is naturally no stranger to Chen Mingxiang, and it is true that he has admired his name for a long time. In fact, there is no one in the Japanese military police system in China who does not know the name Chen Mingxiang.
Because this man was good at smuggling, the Japanese Military Police Headquarters in Shanghai also became the military police agency with the best pay and the highest income, making his colleagues jealous.
Shigeto Kenfumi also knew that Chen Mingxiang was not only a direct descendant of Major General Kinoshita Sakae, the commander of the Military Police Headquarters in Shanghai, but also involved the Marine Corps Headquarters, the Thirteenth Army Headquarters, the Central China Liaison Department of the Koya Institute, and the Municipal Government.
Many other important forces are characters that cannot be easily offended.
"Chongfu-kun, I'm overly complimentary. I just did my part in the job. I ask you to take care of me at the Qingxiang Committee. When you come next time, I will give you and the military police a batch of customized cigarettes. It can also be regarded as a welfare."
!" Even if Chen Mingxiang hated it so much that his teeth ached, he did not dare to show any abnormal emotions.
One person gave them a red envelope containing a thousand dollars, which was Chen Mingxiang's meeting gift for them. They had a drink together at the most famous restaurant in Suzhou at noon, and with his special relationship and status in the Japanese military, they soon became friends.
Got closer to the Japanese military officers.
"I heard that Chen Jun has two factories in Suzhou. They are expanding rapidly and are among the best in Suzhou. I will ask the military police to take care of you secretly. No one dares to go wild and look for trouble in your place." Norifu Shigeto was leaving.
Said in the restaurant.
"Thank you, Colonel, for your help. Naturally, I will not let you and the military police work in vain. I will pay you a monthly subsidy of 200,000 French currency. What do you think of this remuneration?" Chen Mingxiang said.
Jiangsu and Zhejiang are traditional silk production areas. The current market price of a piece of silk is more than 5,000 yuan. However, the Japanese and puppet taxes and various taxes actually account for 25% of the sales price, which is equivalent to a thousand yuan for each piece of silk.
More than 200 yuan, which greatly reduced the profits of silk and made it unprofitable. The more you sell, the more you will lose.
But Chen Mingxiang’s factories in Suzhou and Hangzhou ignored the tax department of Wang Puppet Government at all. Who would be so blind as to dare to go to his place to collect taxes?
Even if the tax department of the local finance bureau takes the case to Finance Minister Zhou Fahai, it will be useless. Whoever dares to challenge him will be unlucky. Chen Mingxiang is now the celebrity of Chen Gongbo, the number two figure in the Wang Puppet Government.
In order to exploit the Chinese silk industry, Japan established the Huazhong Silk Co., Ltd. in Shanghai to carry out monopoly plunder from silkworm seeds, cocoons, reeling to sales.
But Chen Mingxiang's factory didn't care about this. According to his request, the factory not only purchased the reeling machines and textile machines of the bankrupt factory, but also recruited a large number of skilled workers, expanded the scale of production, and sent people to the countryside to support mulberry gardens and purchase silkworm cocoons.
, in his name it is unimpeded.
People from the so-called Huazhong Silk Co., Ltd. can only stare at people from Chen Mingxiang's factory and pretend not to notice. How dare they babble and forget the lessons learned by the inspection team so quickly?
The Japanese businessmen of the Huazhong Silk Co., Ltd. reported to the Central China Liaison Department of the Koya Institute, saying that Chen Mingxiang was undermining the empire's economic control policy, but Minister Shizue Tsuda was too lazy to pay attention to it. The Japanese chaebol's frequent actions during this period had long aroused dissatisfaction with the military department.
