Four hundred and fiftieth chapters will not pay in vain
The eyes are the windows to the soul, and one can see the inner activities from the eyes. Chen Mingxiang has never given up observing the three opponents. He knows that the purpose of tonight has been achieved, and the deterrence force has even exceeded his expectations.
As long as these people's thinking is normal, they should be very clear about reality. There will be no good fruit in going against themselves.
“Ladies and gentlemen, friends from the military and diplomatic institutions of the Imperial Japanese Army in Shanghai, friends from the municipal government and subordinate units, friends from the industrial, commercial and financial circles of Shanghai, good evening to everyone!
"
"Today is a great day for me to officially serve as the Director of General Affairs and Director of the Liaison Office of the Security Command of the Shanghai Special Municipal Government, and to be promoted to Major General of the Army of the Jinling Government. I am very happy and sincerely welcome all the leaders and distinguished guests.
grateful"
Chen Mingxiang gave a speech that lasted for half an hour, which was nothing more than some useless polite words. He thanked the Imperial Army and the Jinling government for their attention, thanked Chen Gongbo and Yingzuo Zhenzhao for their favor, and thanked the Japanese military agencies stationed in Shanghai for their help and support.
I will live up to everyone's expectations from now on, perform my duties diligently and keep working hard, and win rounds of applause from the guests present.
"Look, this is the man of my dreams. He has achieved such a status in two years. I asked you, how did you do it? His real fiancée went to the United States. It has been so long that he has not been able to get her. What a shame for us sisters.
Shame on you!" Renji said in a low voice.
"I'm too familiar with him. Those methods are useless. If you think he is empty, lonely and cold, try it yourself if you have the ability. You will look like you want to pounce on him!"
"There are so many women staring at him. Look at the two sisters, their eyes are full of admiration. Fortunately, they are not around Chen Gongbo. If they discovered this scene, they would be so angry!" Liu Nina said.
Everyone knows that Chen Mingxiang is highly regarded by Chen Gongbo and the Japanese army. He can definitely control the wind and rain in Shanghai. He is a powerful figure. However, this guy usually keeps a low profile and only moves below the water. No one knows how much energy he has. This time
Only then did I realize how powerful he was.
Women are naturally a vulnerable group, not to mention that in this war-torn era, they are most eager to find a man they can depend on and can provide a safe harbor to protect themselves. This is brought about by nature.
"Not only the twins, but if you look closely at Li Shiqun's confidential secretary, Chen Gongbo's confidential secretary, and the Japanese female spy, you almost swallowed him!" Ling Ji said with a smile.
They were born in a profligate family, and there were few taboos in speaking. When two women whispered to each other, their words would inevitably be inappropriate.
But these words are also true. At this moment, Chen Mingxiang was shining brightly. With the aura of the host of the reception, many of the beauties present were attracted to him.
"Chen Jun really wasn't lying. The sake tonight is of the Daiginjo level. It should be Kobe's Kiku Masamune brew. All kinds of seafood, vegetables and sauces are also pure Japanese flavor. The chef's skills are very high, and it tastes good."
It’s like I’m back in Japan, I can’t help but thank you so much for taking so much trouble!” Shizue Tsuda said happily.
A group of Japanese generals and Chen Mingxiang were sitting at two tables in the corner. Everyone had dishes on their plates. The waiter specially brought wine and tea. The eating and drinking was very lively. Chen Gongbo and the board of directors of the Concession Industry Bureau
, and people from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs sat together and chatted.
"I just saw the gifts you prepared for the guests. The pattern and material of the silk are quite good, and the packaging of Biluochun tea is also very high-end. The expenses for this cocktail party must be an astonishing number, right? It always costs Chen Jun a lot of money. It's really
I’m so sorry!” Major General Kinoshita Eiichi said.
Chen Mingxiang is quite famous for his large investment in the Japanese army stationed in Shanghai. During the holidays, even the junior officers of the Thirteenth Army are given cigarettes and tea benefits. Up to now, all the cigarettes smoked by the Military Police and Marine Corps are his.
Special cigarettes produced by our own cigarette factory.
The gifts received by these generals were even more valuable. In addition, there were big red envelopes. Major General Kinoshita Sakae, commander of the military police, felt at ease. Huatong Trading Company relied on the military police headquarters to make money, but other institutions were a bit
It's a shame, it didn't do Chen Mingxiang any good.
The purpose of Major General Kinoshita Sakae's words is very simple. You can't be like a brave man who can't let light in and out, enjoying the benefits provided by Chen Mingxiang in vain. You must give something in return.
"Since it is a gift to the imperial soldiers, it cannot be measured in terms of money. Without you, I would not be where I am today. No matter how much money I spend, it is worth it." Chen Mingxiang said with a smile.
"This sounds really comfortable. Chen Jun is right. As long as you serve the Empire of Japan wholeheartedly, you will get more in the future. The Empire has never been stingy in rewarding its followers." Major General Maeda Masami smiled.
He said.
The big shots in the Japanese military stationed in Shanghai were very considerate, and everyone who received the invitation, including military chiefs from intelligence agencies and non-field forces, came.
What was even more surprising was that the Thirteenth Army Headquarters and the Third Fleet Headquarters also sent their respective chiefs of staff to the club as representatives.
Although the two major generals stayed for less than half an hour in total, drank two glasses of wine, and tasted a few dishes before leaving, they at least represented their support and attention to Chen Mingxiang.
The most important military operation of the Japanese army in Central China at the moment is the second large-scale attack by the Eleventh Army on Tanzhou. This topic will inevitably come up when talking.
Tonight, these generals enjoyed the authentic wine and food from their hometowns, and they felt very comfortable. Although they were in high positions, in the occupied areas of China, it would be impossible to eat such high-quality meals every day.
Don't think about it.
"The troops of four divisions and four brigades under the Eleventh Army launched an all-out attack on the ninth theater of the Shancheng Government. At the beginning, the progress was very smooth. In just a few hours, they broke through the frontal enemy's third
One line of defense was broken, and the second line of defense was breached at 4 p.m."
"The opponent's fighting will is also very tenacious, and he actually refuses to retreat. I received a battle report from the headquarters of the dispatched army. The Fourth Army of the Yamacheng Government and our 40th Division have formed a confrontation situation, and the 40th Division has formed a confrontation.
Third, the Fourth and Sixth Divisions have arrived at the north bank of the Miluo River."
"In general, except for the Dayun Mountain battle in southern Baling, the progress has been relatively smooth, and the original plan has been basically completed." Yingzuo Zhenzhao said with a smile.
"The situation will get better and better. After the Jiangcheng Battle, our intelligence department has been working hard and has deciphered the communication code of the ninth theater."
"The battle plan issued by the opponent's headquarters was informed to the Eleventh Army headquarters, which promptly adjusted the direction of the attack and made targeted arrangements, intending to eat up the Yamashiro government's Thirty-seventh Army in one fell swoop." Major General Maeda Masami
