Chapter 866 Intelligence Coordination Meeting Continued
Li Shiqun naturally has his advantages. Since Yingzuo Zhenzhao and Qingqi Qingyin were transferred, he has stepped up his efforts to please Wang Jingwei, and the relationship between the two parties has improved a lot.
In fact, for the Gongguan faction, they have no intention of getting rid of Li Shiqun. Keeping him in the ring with Zhou Fahai will act as a check and balance. Although Wang Jingwei trusts Zhou Fahai, he cannot but restrain him.
Wang Jingwei means that Tojo Hideki's visit to Jinling this time represents the attitude of the Japanese cabinet and military department and establishes the absolute authority of the Jinling government in the Kansai area.
"You mean, the Jinling government's actions against the North China Government Affairs Commission?" Chen Mingxiang asked.
Just after the New Year, Wang Jitang, chairman of the puppet North China Political Affairs Committee, announced his resignation as chairman and only held a few idle positions.
But according to Chen Gongbo, this old traitor was forced to step down by Wang Jingwei. Since the Japanese government adopted the new strategy, the Jinling government has hardened its back. It directly targeted Wang Jitang of the puppet North China Political Affairs Committee and appointed the Jinling government
A confidant serves as the chairman of the committee.
"We both know that the North China Government Affairs Committee is a force supported by the North China Front Army. It must obey the instructions of the Front Army Headquarters in everything. On the surface, it is a subordinate local government of the Jinling government. In fact, it is a separate court and does not obey orders at all.
.”
"When Chairman Wang visited Japan, he got the tacit approval of the Japanese government and kicked this old dog out of the core layer after the New Year. However, the North China Front Army Command was very dissatisfied with this and even protested to the Jinling government, thinking that
Such changes hindered North China's contribution to the imperial war and created instability in the region."
"General Hata Toshiroku, commander-in-chief of the dispatched army, carried out the military headquarters' intention and forcibly suppressed the North China Front Army Headquarters. He did not dare to take any countermeasures. However, this dissatisfaction has always existed and has always been a hidden danger for the Jinling government.
"
"When Tojo Hideki comes to Jinling this time, he will naturally meet with Okamura Neiji and other senior generals of the North China Front. If they still can't figure it out, the military department will ask them to move their positions. The empire's decision-making does not allow bargaining.
"Li Shiqun said.
In the face of the defeat of the war in the South Pacific, the Japanese military and government placed their hopes on the resource support of the occupied areas to ensure the continuation of the war. The two sides reached a consensus on this and received the tacit approval of the Emperor. Who dares
Anyone who opposes the new strategy will be punished.
That evening, Chen Mingxiang held a grand reception banquet at Wang Baohe Restaurant. Lieutenant General Matsui Taitaro of the Mei Agency, Major General Kinoshita Sakaeichi, Commander of the Military Police, Major General Yoshitaro Kawamoto, Chief of Intelligence of the Thirteenth Army Headquarters, and the Army Ministry's secret service stationed in Shanghai
Major General Shigesaburo Miyazaki also attended and drank two glasses of wine.
This is to give face to Chen Mingxiang, and possibly to the Kwantung Army, and they will also be attending tomorrow's meeting.
"Your Excellency General, this time Prime Minister Tojo comes to Jinling for a visit, should I go to Jinling to attend the reception or wait in Shanghai?" Chen Mingxiang asked Kinoshita Sakae in a low voice.
"The work of the intelligence coordination agency is very important. Anyway, the Prime Minister is going to visit Shanghai, so you don't need to go. With your current status and qualifications, you are not qualified to be interviewed alone. There is nothing to do while waiting, just join in the fun.
what!"
"As the commander of the military police in Central China, I have to go to Jinling. I will fly there tomorrow afternoon. You will assist Mr. Kawamoto of the Thirteenth Army Headquarters, together with the Marine Corps Headquarters and the Consulate General in Shanghai, to arrange for the arrival in Shanghai.
Reception work, the welcome ceremony held here, you can be introduced to His Excellency the Prime Minister." Kinoshita Sakaeichi said.
"That's right, I admire your ability to do things the most. I have reported it to the commander a long time ago. I want you to join in the preparations for the welcome ceremony, especially the communication with the navy. Those bastards with eyes that reach the top of their heads, I am too lazy to talk to them.
If you speak, you will be responsible for the coordination between the navy and the city government." Kawamoto Yoshitaro said.
A banquet like this is actually just a formality. After eating and drinking, we disperse. Since tomorrow's meeting is very important, no one dares to go to the entertainment venue to play all night.
Starting from six o'clock in the morning the next day, No. 76 Jisi Feier Road and the surrounding streets were all blocked by Japanese military police, police and spies and placed under martial law.
At half past seven, all participants arrived at the venue, including several senior Japanese generals. The meeting officially started at eight o'clock.
First of all, Lieutenant General Matsui Taotao made a speech. Without going into the cliches, he announced that Tojo Hideki was going to visit Jinling and Shanghai. It was stipulated that the meeting would end at 11:30, and he would have a quick lunch and then return.
In their respective regions, Jinling personnel will return by plane with him at two o'clock.
"The establishment of the intelligence sharing mechanism is a concrete manifestation of the Jinling government and the Manchukuo government deepening and promoting cooperation in various matters, and is of extremely important significance to the two governments! On behalf of the Police Department of the Ministry of Interior of the Jinling government, I would like to express my sincere wishes to the Manchukuo Ministry of Public Security
Express thankfulness"
"Through the intelligence exchange initiative, the work of the police systems and intelligence agencies outside the customs, North China, Central China and South China will be improved, especially in clearing up internal hidden dangers, preventing enemy infiltration, and combating sabotage activities against the two governments and Japan.
Be efficient and in-depth”
"Yesterday, the Special Liaison Office screened files from outside the customs. Our first step is to start investigating the suspect's life trajectory. Where is his hometown, the files will first be provided to the police in that place.
Bureau, Special Agent Headquarters Experimental Zone and Gendarmerie, and wait for the police departments of each province and special city to receive the files in their own areas."
"After all departments return to their bases, they must act quickly to verify the authenticity of the files, and then report the results to the Special Liaison Office of the Police Department. The dispatched personnel from Manchukuo will contact the headquarters for further processing. Whether they lied or not, this is
It is a very important basis for judgment.”
"Our second step is to look for similar people from our files based on the photos, ethnicity, place of origin, height, skin color, age, physical characteristics and other important conditions provided in the files. My requirement is that at least 60% of them are similar.
To this extent, you can’t just scrape together for bonuses, as you will be punished.”
The meeting was shortened and naturally became dominated by Chen Mingxiang's speech. Fortunately, he had prepared in advance. Apart from empty words, he also had something valuable to say.
"Director Chen, your speech is indeed exciting, especially your arrangement of the investigation work, which is very worthy of our reference. We will pass this speech to the outside world as soon as possible." A deputy director of the Manchukuo Public Security Ministry
Chang said.
"I don't dare to take it seriously. This is the first time for both of us to cooperate. Many places are slowly making progress through exploration and exploration. When operations outside the customs begin, I will also make a special trip to learn from the experience." Chen Mingxiang said with a smile.
