Chapter seven hundred and thirteenth new capital trip on
Lu Kunyu returned to China from the United States at the end of the 29th year of the Republic of China, and then went to study in the base area. It is now September of the 31st year of the Republic of China, and Suan Suan and Chen Mingxiang have not seen each other for almost two years.
"I know what you mean. This request is not too much. Comrade Lu Kunyu has withdrawn to the pass. For the safety of the two of them, she still has to stay in the base and cannot meet with Chen Mingxiang. I will report it to my superiors. There should be no problem.
." the team leader said.
According to general logic, Lu Kunyu is an assistant to a latent comrade in the underground party. Their identities are closely related. Don't you worry that the secret will be leaked?
No matter how well Lu Kunyu disguises himself, can he still deceive Chen Mingxiang?
According to this guy's strength and power, it will be a matter of time at most to find Lu Kunyu!
But Chen Mingxiang is not an enemy. He has long known that Lu Kunyu is an underground party, but he has never stopped him. Moreover, he has made so many important contributions to the underground party organizations and base areas in Shanghai. This level of trust is still there.
Similarly, according to normal logical thinking, Chen Mingxiang has arrived in Ice City, but the two cannot meet. They don't know when they will meet in the future. How can Chen Mingxiang not be emotional?
The key is that Chen Mingxiang is not a member of the underground party, and there is no need to abide by the discipline of the underground party. After all, Lu Kunyu is his fiancée!
"Chen Jun, welcome to Xinjing!" Takeda Isao shook hands with Chen Mingxiang who had just gotten off the plane.
"I really don't dare to accept the responsibility of His Excellency Colonel to come to the airport in person. Thank you very much!" Chen Mingxiang bowed.
"It is you who I should thank you for solving some practical difficulties for our Kwantung Army Headquarters. Let's go. I will take you to the headquarters first to meet with General Umezu Yoshijiro. You don't need to be nervous. General Hata Shunroku praised him in front of him.
You." Isao Takeda said with a smile.
Umezu Yoshijiro was appointed as the Commander-in-Chief of the Kwantung Army and Ambassador Extraordinary and Plenipotentiary on September 7, the 28th year of the Republic of China. On August 1, the 29th year of the Republic of China, he was promoted to Army General. In fact, he was the highest decision-maker of the puppet Manchukuo.
people.
The sixty-year-old Umezu Yoshijiro belongs to the backbone of the ruling faction of the Japanese Army. In fact, he is from the same faction as Tojo Hideki, Okamura Neji, Doihara Kenji, Itagaki Seishiro and others.
But some things are not that simple. Because he opposed Itagaki Seishiro's strategy, Okamura Neji was transferred back to the country and sat on the bench for a year. The two people were from the same faction.
Okamura Neiji was the commander of the North China Front, but the relationship between the North China Political Affairs Commission and the puppet Manchukuo was incompatible. The North China Front and the Kwantung Army also disliked each other. Therefore, the relationship here was very complicated.
Taking a car from the headquarters, Chen Mingxiang arrived at the Japanese Kwantung Army Headquarters. It is located in Kuancheng District, Xinjing. It was designed and supervised by the Kwantung Army Management Department. Construction started in August of the 21st year of the Republic of China.
Completed in August.
There are three floors above the ground and one floor underground. Some parts of the wings of the main building are four floors, while the tower is five floors and has more than 200 rooms. It is the highest military and administrative command institution of the Japanese army in Manchukuo.
.
"Did you see that? That's where the Military Police Headquarters is located. At noon, Major General Hara Mamoru, Major General Saburo Shibuya and I will treat you to dinner." Isao Takeda pointed to the distance not far away and said.
Chen Mingxiang also noticed the Japanese Kwantung Army Military Police Headquarters. According to Takeda Isao, it was moved here in the 24th year of the Republic of China. It used to be the location of the Kwantung Army Headquarters, and later the Japanese Kwantung Bureau. It has four floors above ground and one underground.
It has two floors, a square shape, and no special features.
"Chen Jun, although I am in Manchukuo, I am no stranger to you. To be awarded the second-class Ruibao Heavy Light Medal by His Majesty the Emperor shows your contribution to the empire."
"You took advantage of Shanghai's industrial and commercial advantages to smuggle a large amount of strategic materials for the Imperial Army's troops in central China, especially tung oil and bristle, which accounted for a large proportion. When you returned to Tokyo for a meeting, the Sixth General Hata Shun admired your ability very much.
, I have praised your performance many times."
"The Kwantung Army has always been stationed in Manchukuo. The local resources are limited and the demand for strategic materials is great, especially the products and resources in southern China. In view of various unsolvable difficulties, the headquarters can only rely on your strength to make up for it.
Shortcomings.”
"I know that although you have many part-time jobs, you are still a businessman at heart, and businessmen focus on profits. I will give you some conveniences. The Kwantung Army will protect your commercial activities in Manchukuo, and you will not suffer any loss in material exchange.
." Umezu Yoshijiro said.
This meeting ended in less than ten minutes. Basically, he was talking. Chen Mingxiang listened obediently. As a Japanese army general and the commander of the Kwantung Army, a small figure like Chen Mingxiang would not be qualified at all if he was not responsible for a special mission.
Meet him.
Umezu Yoshijiro's meaning is very straightforward. There is no need to talk in circles when talking to little people. As long as Chen Mingxiang can serve the Kwantung Army, he can gain wealth and status in Manchukuo. This is a transaction, a transaction that is beneficial to both parties.
"How do you feel about General Umezu?" Isao Takeda said with a smile.
"He is very kind and approachable. How should I put it? He looks like an elegant scholar, but he does not have the domineering air of a commander. This is quite rare." Chen Mingxiang said.
A wolf in sheep's clothing!
Of course, this cannot be said out loud. Of course, the commander is mainly responsible for the bad things the Kwantung Army did outside the Pass, but now he can only make excuses.
"Chen Jun, the Xinjing branch of Huatong Trading Company is located near the main road, as well as your tea house and silk and satin shop. Tea and beautiful silk and satin from the south of the Yangtze River are very popular in Xinjing, and they have gradually become the most popular choice among dignitaries.
I have asked the Beijing Military Police to protect your property." Major General Yuan Mamoru said with a smile.
"You will come to Xinjing frequently in the future, and you need a place to live. I have arranged a house for you in a residential area where Japanese expatriates live. Gas, water, electricity and telephone are very convenient. I also arranged two cars for you." Shibuya.
Saburo said with a smile.
These two people held high positions in the puppet Manchukuo country. Not counting the various gifts Chen Mingxiang gave them, each of them spent one hundred thousand dollars in cash alone!
Major General Hara Mamoru and Major General Saburo Shibuya felt that they were taking advantage of themselves, so they arranged some benefits in return.
Xingjing was the capital of the puppet Manchukuo, and the Japanese wanted to occupy it for a long time, so they frantically drove out the people and built a new city for themselves.
During the occupation, the so-called Xinjing was equipped with gas pipelines, water distribution pipelines, drainage pipelines, ten main roads, 73 secondary roads, 143 alleys, and ten circular squares.
Five railway lines and six aviation lines have been opened, 45 urban bus lines, 10 parks, and more than 43,000 new buildings with a construction area of more than 7.7 million square meters have been opened.
Those who can enjoy all this are of course the Japanese, but the Chinese people in Xinjing, under the iron heel of the invaders, live a life of hunger, cold, and dire straits.
