At around seven o'clock in the morning, there were still many people on the street in the public concession. People who played all night in entertainment venues, people who got up to do small business, people who got up early to eat, etc. ∷八∷八∷Reading,.

However, everyone was surprised to find that various intersections near the border were surrounded by Japanese soldiers armed with guns and live ammunition, and motorcycles, armored vehicles and trucks were parked one after another.
Many people are already aware of the shelling incident that occurred on the Huangpu River early this morning. After all, the incident took place on the British Concession side.
An atmosphere of panic and fear quickly permeated the public settlement. Some businessmen began to move valuables, and some even made their wives and children unkempt, fearing that the Japanese soldiers would behave like animals.
Chen Mingxiang walked out of the Bank of China branch, looked at the cheering Japanese military police, handed out a box of cigars to each of them, and then drove to the office of the Foreign Affairs Office, waiting for the last moment to arrive.
At eight o'clock, the Japanese Consul General in Shanghai, Horiuchi Yucheng, drove to the Ministry of Industry and Commerce Bureau. On behalf of the Japanese government, he informed the administrative officials of the United States, Britain and the Netherlands that the Empire of Japan had declared war on Britain, the United States, and the Netherlands, and was about to take over the cities in Shanghai.
of public settlement.
At 11 o'clock in the morning on December 8, the Japanese army and marines entered the concession at the same time from various intersections. At 12 o'clock, all areas were completely occupied.
"Mingxiang, the Japanese army will not tusha or rob foreigners in the concession, right? What other foreign women will they be humiliated?" He Bingxian said while looking at the Japanese soldiers walking on the street.
The two sisters each held one of Chen Mingxiang's hands, and their palms were sweaty, which showed that they were extremely nervous.
If they stay in the Foreign Affairs Office, the Japanese army will not do anything to them, but based on past incidents, they are very afraid of seeing rivers of blood and corpses lying on the streets.∵八∵八∵Read∵书,.↗.▲o
It was Chen Gongbo's wish to come to work at the Foreign Affairs Office. When the Japanese troops were stationed in the concession, he was afraid that his "" would be accidentally attacked, so he asked them to follow Chen Mingxiang. This was tantamount to being under the influence of the Military Police Headquarters in Shanghai and the Marine Corps Headquarters in Shanghai.
With double protection, there is no safer place than beside Chen Mingxiang.
"It is inevitable that individual cases will happen in this process, but not on a large scale. There are embassies from many countries in Shanghai, and the Japanese government also has to consider the international impact. What's more, their goal is to accumulate the huge wealth accumulated in the concession for a hundred years.
, to provide resources for the war, the follow-up is hard to say, the Japanese can do anything." Chen Mingxiang said.
He is also worried that something like this will happen, but the current situation is so helpless that he can't even help his fellow countrymen, let alone those foreigners.
Fortunately, the biggest purpose of the Japanese this time is to seek wealth, and there have been no violent incidents for the time being. It is estimated that the Japanese troops stationed in the concession were severely warned in advance, otherwise they would never be so peaceful.
In order to realize the shunguo crossing, the Japanese troops stationed in Shanghai still handed over the concession to the former Ministry of Industry and Industry Bureau for "management" responsibilities. Foreigners can also continue to stay in their residences and wait for the population registration to be implemented. Then they can walk around outside and appear to be working.
and life were not affected.
At noon that day, the Japanese in Hongkou District organized a huge celebration, and the great victory of the combined naval fleet bombing Pearl Harbor was also publicized.
"Ono-kun, you should be the busiest now, how come you have time to come to my place?" Chen Mingxiang said with a smile.
After lunch, he was drinking tea with his sisters in the office! Although he didn't want to have anything happen with them, having a beautiful woman like a flower waiting on him made his mood relax a lot. Chatting helped to relax.
Own.
"The concession matter will last for a long time and cannot be dealt with in a day or two. My intelligence office does not have much work. The ones who are busy are Shimada-kun and Nakajima-kun."
"There's no need to avoid it, you can just sit down. I don't have any important work, so I'm just here to sit and have a cup of tea. I've long heard that Chen Jun has a pair of beautiful twin girlfriends. When I saw them today, they are indeed well-deserved!"
"Zhongsa Ono said with a smile.
Chen Mingxiang was immediately embarrassed. Lieutenant Colonel Ono was a naval intelligence officer and must have known that sisters He Zhuoxian and Bingxian were Chen Gongbo's. He said this just to make a joke on himself.
"Thank you, Lieutenant Colonel, for the compliment. We sisters are not worthy of it. Please have tea!" He Zhuoxian poured a cup of tea for Lieutenant Colonel Ono generously.
At this time, Chen Gongbo sent the two sisters to Chen Mingxiang. It was really not a man's responsibility. The two sisters were very contemptuous of this. They had never seen such a useless man!
"The judgment we made last time when we had a drink was absolutely correct. The Combined Fleet indeed attacked Pearl Harbor and turned the U.S. Pacific Fleet's station upside down. The only flaw was that the three aircraft carriers were not in the harbor. The rest was perfect.
.”
"This time the combined fleet implemented radio silence and only turned on the radio during a specific time period. Admiral Yamamoto is really a genius. We all think it is a miracle that he accomplished such a feat over a distance of more than 3,000 kilometers!"
"Admiral Yamamoto conveyed the attack order to Vice Admiral Nagumo using only a few words and a set of numbers. Climbing to a new peak of 1,208 shows how meticulous the fleet's plan was." Lieutenant Commander Ono said.
The attack on Pearl Harbor had been successfully completed, and the related information was no longer a secret. Instead, it became the best material to boost morale. It soon spread within the Japanese Navy, and Lieutenant Colonel Ono's intelligence office was the first to receive the news.
Climb a new peak 1208!
Chen Mingxiang suddenly remembered the telegram intercepted by the Xiamen Radio Station of the Military Command Bureau. Now the mystery was finally solved. It turned out to be the telegram sent by Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto, Commander-in-Chief of the Combined Fleet, to Vice Admiral Chuichi Nagumo, Commander-in-Chief of the Mobile Fleet.
Suddenly there was the sound of an airplane outside. Chen Mingxiang opened the window and took a look. He saw several airplanes flying over at low altitude, and pieces of paper like snow falling from the sky.
"What is this?" Chen Mingxiang asked curiously.
"Don't ignore it, that's a leaflet distributed by the joint command organization. The content is to stabilize people's hearts and maintain social order. The imperial army will protect private property. Let's continue drinking tea." Lieutenant Colonel Ono said.
Isn't it a joke that an invader can still protect private property?
Whether it is an enemy product or not depends entirely on the words of the Japanese army. Even if you say it is, you must be yes, and if you say no, you must be yes. Everything must be said with your fists.
However, the confusing measures taken by the Japanese army still gave many foreigners some illusions. Generally speaking, the order within the concession was stable. But they did not know that robbing personal property was the last step in the process of receiving the concession's wealth.
.
The first step after the Japanese army occupied the public concession was to liquidate banks in various countries. The banks of the United States, the United Kingdom, the Netherlands and the Yamashiro government were all placed under the custody of Japan's Zhengjin Bank.
During this process, the Japanese army plundered about 1.12 billion yuan in legal tender currency, as well as assets worth 476 million yuan in legal currency from major banks. 11 Go to the latest chapter of "Espionage Network Jie Zhong Literature" on Baidu.
