"Brother Mingxiang is the most capable young talent I have ever seen. He holds an important position in Shanghai. Not only is he highly regarded by the empire, but he is also favored by President Chen of the Legislative Yuan of the Jinling Government. His future is boundless. Your Majesty, Colonel.
Don't worry, if anything happens in North China, I will take special care of you." Wang Shijing said hurriedly.
For Wang Shijing, Chen Mingxiang's ability to invite the Intelligence Staff Section Chief of the North China Expeditionary Force Headquarters has proven his qualifications for resource replacement. By linking up with Qingqi Qingyin, his position as bank president will be more stable in the future.
"The headquarters is not making any big moves in Beiping and Jincheng, right? The coal I need is being urgently loaded from Kailuan Coal Mine in Phoenix City to Jincheng Port. This is related to the coal shortage in Shanghai and the mission of Xingya Institute.
There must be no problem, General Taiji Ohta gave you many instructions before he left." Chen Mingxiang asked casually.
"Beijing and Tianjin have always been heavily guarded by the imperial army. There is no need to carry out a large-scale sweep here. The 12th Army Headquarters in Quancheng, Shandong Province received a secret report that the 111th Division of the Sulu Theater of the Shancheng Government was in internal strife and was preparing to surrender.
The base area of the underground party, for this reason, the Twelfth Army Headquarters mobilized the fifth and sixth independent mixed brigades to launch a sweep of the Sulu theater."
"The 27th Division stationed in Jincheng also made some moves in September, but not in the Pingjin area, but in the eastern Hebei area. This time it will adopt a step-by-step strategy of encirclement with iron walls to clean up the underground party's armed forces in one fell swoop.
"
"The 32nd Division under the 12th Army Headquarters also carried out a raid on the western Shandong area at the same time. The 53rd Brigade of the 59th Division and the troops under the 4th Cavalry Brigade were responsible for cooperating. These
These are all top secrets, you two must not leak them." Qingqi Qingyin said with a smile.
Although there is no accurate time, marching route or detailed combat area, just a rough and vague concept, this is definitely a military secret. Qingqi Qingyin, a veteran spy, leaked the secret to Chen Mingxiang.
Does he have no confidentiality? How is that possible!
There is a reason why he dared to say it face to face. Chen Mingxiang's scope of activities has always been in central China, and he is not familiar with northern China at all.
Secondly, Chen Mingxiang is a "businessman" and has not received formal military training. Although everyone knows that he and the military commander are somewhat unclear, this information cannot constitute complete intelligence.
When the action will take place, which troops will take action, where the attack will be launched, what route will be taken, and what the firepower configuration will be, these are all not stated.
Furthermore, Chen Mingxiang is famous for not being involved in intelligence or action. He always avoids things like this. He has no interest in so-called military secrets. As long as he knows that his business will not be affected, it doesn't matter.
The most important thing is that Qingqi Qingyin wants Chen Mingxiang to feel his value. The Japanese army in Jincheng must be taking action. If he doesn't know, how can he cooperate?
"Qingqijun, I would like to assume that there are several radio stations in North China, mainly used to communicate with the head office. You also know that it is very difficult to make phone calls in the Pingjin area and Shanghai. The phone lines are often blocked by guerrillas.
Destroying it can easily delay things," Chen Mingxiang said.
"What you said is the truth. In this case, you ask General Shiozawa Kiyonori, the director of the North China Liaison Department, to say hello to the deputy chief of staff of the headquarters, Major General Yumo Seizan, saying that the Peiping branch is needed to perform the tasks of the Koya Institute.
Set up a radio station.”
"This kind of matter belongs to the dual management of the second and third classes. I will discuss with the third class and grant you five military radio stations in the early stage. If it is not enough, you can give you the special high-level radio stations of the Shanghai Military Police Headquarters.
If you register the secret code in the third section of the headquarters, there will be no problem, but you need to find the operator yourself." Qingqi Qingyin thought for a while and said.
The underground party guerrillas in North China often sabotaged the Japanese army's communication lines, and telephone calls were often blocked. This was an obstacle that could not be avoided.
Chen Mingxiang owns multiple radio stations in central China, and all acquisition stations in various provinces use radio stations to communicate with the headquarters. Qingqi Qingyin also knows that the operators are all drawn from the training classes at the secret service headquarters.
"Mr. Zheng, the business of Yunhua Restaurant seems to be very prosperous. You can repay 20,000 yuan in a month. However, considering that you have just opened your business, you are a little nervous about money. Let's talk about it next year. Our family is not waiting.
Money buys rice for cooking." Wang Zhen said with a smile.
Zheng Tonghui came to Mara Villa. Before the restaurant was renovated, he borrowed 100,000 yuan in China Reserve Certificates and wanted to repay the loan in batches. This time he got 20,000 yuan in China Reserve Certificates.
Wang Zhen also knows that Yunhua Restaurant is very profitable. With Chen Mingxiang's fixed support, it would be a damn thing if the business is not booming. However, the underground party's funds are really difficult. Chen Mingxiang once said that there is no need to return this money, it should be regarded as a donation.
You have done good things for the underground party.
"This is only possible thanks to Commissioner Chen's support. This time I made a special trip to express my gratitude. The restaurant's monthly income is more than the amount we raised. I believe it will be able to help more people in the future.
." Zheng Tonghui said.
The Yunhua Restaurant run by the Shanghai Underground Party Materials Procurement and Transportation Team, under the care of Chen Mingxiang, is definitely the most popular restaurant at the moment. Not only the Social Bureau, Inspection Team, Foreign Affairs Office, Huatong Trading Company and Security Headquarters have designated meals
, even the secret service headquarters and police station, as well as some agencies from the city government came to have dinner.
Zheng Tonghui and his comrades in the underground party lived like a dream every day. At noon and evening, there was not even a single free table, and you had to make a reservation in advance if you wanted to eat.
At the end of the month, an inventory was taken and it was found that the food expenses of these Japanese and puppet agencies could exceed more than 100,000 yuan a month. Moreover, the finances of each department were particularly easy to settle, and no one dared to embarrass the restaurant.
Excluding labor, materials, water, electricity and kickbacks to those departments, it is very easy to earn 30,000 to 40,000 yuan. When did the underground party have such abundant funds?
"Huatong Trading Company wants to carry out business in North China and outside the customs. Mingxiang flew to Peiping yesterday morning, and then he had to go to Jincheng. After finishing his work, he went to Xinjing and Bingcheng, and it took at least ten days to go back and forth.
Time, you can come back to him in half a month!" Wang Zhen said.
Chen Mingxiang is going to Bingcheng? Huatong Trading Company's business is going to Bingcheng?
But the problem is that the mission Lu Kunyu performed in Bingcheng was a top-secret mission of the Bingcheng underground party. Even if he knew that Chen Mingxiang was coming to Bingcheng, it was impossible for the two to meet. Instead, they had to deliberately avoid it. This is underground work.
of cruelty.
Chen Mingxiang's Huatong Trading Company expanded at an alarming rate. It not only expanded to Suzhou and Hangzhou, but also opened up the North China market and the foreign market at once.
However, his network of contacts is mainly in Central China. It is a bit unreasonable to suddenly go to a completely unfamiliar area to do business and do business on such a large scale. Is there any hidden information in this?
