"I know what you are going to say. General Taiji Ohta came to my place last night and said that the Japan Textile Industry Association hopes that the three textile factories of the Military Police Headquarters can reduce their output and temporarily close them to give up cotton resources to Japan Textile.
enterprise."
"When you were still in Suzhou, the Shanghai branch of the Japanese Textile Industry Association proposed to me to acquire these three textile factories on the grounds that the logistics supply of the Southeast Asian Imperial Army was tight and more resources were needed to increase production. However, they were rejected.
I refused."
"What I didn't expect was that these businessmen who deserved to be killed actually went to the Koya Institute in Tokyo to file a complaint. There were several big chaebols from the empire secretly working behind the scenes. I couldn't stand the pressure anymore. I
I’m going to delay it for a while, but I really can’t think of a better solution.” Major General Kinoshita Eichi said.
He thought that Chen Mingxiang just heard the news that the Japan Textile Industry Association was going to take action against these three textile factories, so he hurriedly came to find him.
He, a small military police major general, would definitely not be able to withstand the pressure from Xingya Yuan. According to the current development of the situation, the textile factory would have to be handed over sooner or later. He was also getting angry over this matter and had a toothache!
"The matter is not as simple as the general thought. Last night, Shimada Kiyonori, director of the first economic bureau of the Central China Liaison Department of Koya Institute, and Soichiro Ueda, president of the Shanghai branch of the Japan Textile Industry Association, came directly to my home."
"I was given a big ultimatum. Work must be stopped tomorrow, and all yarn and cotton must be taken away without any payment. It will be regarded as supporting the empire!" Chen Mingxiang said anxiously.
Kinoshita Eiichi was stunned. He felt that he, the general, and the entire military police headquarters had been slapped hard in the face by these Japanese businessmen.
He was also talking about stalling for time, and if you delay your uncle, people will come to grab your things!
Bang, a high-quality tea cup from Japan was smashed to pieces. It can be seen how angry Kinoshita Eichi was at this moment, or he was so angry that he was slapped in the face!
The four section chiefs, who were waiting outside the door for news, hurried in. The General rarely did this, which proved that he was very angry.
"The reason why I am unwilling to hand over the textile factory is not just for the welfare of Huatong Trading Company. As a soldier of the empire, I must always put the overall situation first. I still have this awareness!"
"The General Headquarters of the Expeditionary Forces has clear requirements for the military police in various places. They must complete the strategic material collection targets issued. This requirement has been quantified, and the three textile factories of Huatong Trading Company are the only way for the military police headquarters to complete its tasks.
"
"Furthermore, the supply of cotton fabrics in the logistics of the Imperial Army in Southeast Asia is tight, which cannot affect the overall military supplies support of the Imperial Army. Without the bristles and tung oil, without the tungsten ore and rosin you exchanged, the production of military industrial enterprises will be reduced.
affected."
"So, General Taiji Ohta came to me. I just said to think about it and wait for the right time to deal with the matter. The Emperor's envoy is coming to Shanghai. I didn't expect this group of people to go so far that they actually went to Chen Jun's house.
!”
"Well, it seems that no one takes our Military Police Headquarters seriously. I, a dignified imperial major general, probably don't take it seriously either. I'm robbing the Military Police Headquarters of supplies. This is really strange. Since the establishment of the Military Police system,
I have never heard of such a thing!" Kinoshita Eichi said through gritted teeth.
The military police are the police in the army. They were originally responsible for the military discipline of the army and specialized in investigating and handling matters that violated the law. After the war of aggression against China began, the military police became a department that safeguards the interests of the residents. They not only have to control the common people in occupied areas, but also the Japanese.
To manage.
Although the military police are under the management of the local army, they actually have little control ability. The newly appointed Hideki Tojo is the operator of the "promoting" military police, so his status has also increased.
It was unheard of for a businessman to touch the property of the Military Police Headquarters without permission, but the four section chiefs knew that the calmer Kinoshita Sakaeichi became, the more angry he felt in his heart.
"Your Excellency, General, several officers from the Marine Corps Command came to my home for dinner last night. They were very angry when they heard about this incident and decided to go to the factory for immediate protection the day after tomorrow."
"I originally refused, but they said it was a major matter involving military interests and not for personal reasons, so I didn't say anything else," Chen Mingxiang said.
This matter must be explained clearly to facilitate coordination between the two parties. This is not a battlefield. It is impossible for the army and navy to fight side by side. Tasks must be divided.
In normal times, this kind of cooperation would definitely not work. It would be fine if the two sides met and did not start fighting. However, in order to safeguard the interests of both parties, it is practical to make some adjustments. The Military Police Headquarters also needs someone to share the pressure.
"Did you hear that? Our army military police were laughed at by the Marine Corps. They thought we were weak and incompetent. They were going to take action to protect the interests of the army!"
"Tsukamoto-kun, you are responsible for handling this matter. Don't let the navy look down upon our army military police. Anyone who dares to rob supplies will be severely punished. All of them will be arrested in the prison of the military police headquarters!" Kinoshita Sakaeichi said sternly.
"Hai!" the four military police officers quickly stood at attention and replied.
They all know that the officers of the Marine Corps Command must have thought that the Military Police Command in Shanghai had diarrhea, so they made such a decision. This was equivalent to a second slap in the face to the Military Police Command!
The military police, who have always been reckless in their work, have never been so angry. The four section chiefs are determined to get this situation back!
"General, please calm down. I think that at this time, we should not go into a big fight. Since the other party dares to do so, he must be sure of himself."
"If the Military Police Headquarters makes a big fuss and is held accountable by the senior officials of Xingya Yuan, it will be very detrimental to you and all of you. You can't squeeze your thighs with your arms, so it's better to be more cautious."
"I have considered a solution, and now I will share it with you. It can not only protect the revenue of the Military Police Headquarters from loss, but also block the mouths of those people. In the long run, retreat is the best way to advance.
Strategy." Chen Mingxiang said.
He suddenly noticed a slight change in Kinoshita Eichi's expression, and suddenly thought that this old devil was notoriously difficult to offend, his emotions and anger were invisible, and his methods were very insidious.
According to Lieutenant Colonel Qingqi, even Ying Zuozhenzhao and the generals at the Thirteenth Army Headquarters have a headache when they mention him. It is impossible for such a person to keep his methods open to the public.
It is definitely true that Kinoshita Eiichi is distressed about the loss of his dividends, and it is also true that he is angry, but getting angry is not his style of doing things. If he wants to borrow a knife to kill someone, that would be a big mistake.ntent
