Eight hundred and ninetieth nine chapters cast a net to block six
It has been a few days since I returned to Shanghai from outside the customs and North China. But strangely, the gendarmerie headquarters in Shanghai never mentioned this matter. Chen Mingxiang wanted to know if there had been any changes, so he took the initiative to share the inside story.
Picked it up.
Goshima Shigeru is a direct descendant of Kinoshita Sakae City. It is said that he gets along well with Chen Mingxiang, but in comparison, his relationship with Major Okamura is still not as deep as that of Major Okamura. The key is that Okamura Mikizo was implicated and was transferred to the Jiangxia Military Police Detachment.
When he was the captain, Chen Mingxiang made a special trip to visit him and invited him for a drink. Okamura Shizo looked at him differently.
"The news you heard is absolutely correct. This was Shibayama Kenshiro's secret plan. He interfered with the personnel transfer of the military police stationed in Shanghai without consulting me in advance. His hand was stretched too far."
"Right now, he is shouldering the mission of the military and cabinet. I have negotiated with the Tokyo Military Police Headquarters several times, but to no avail. Goto-kun will officially return to Japan at the end of April." Kinoshita Sakaeichi was very angry.
The Japanese Army Military Police has its own system and never allows others to reach out. However, Kenshiro Shibayama broke the rules and made his own decisions without consulting the Commander of the Military Police. This is also a taboo within the Japanese Army.
Chen Mingxiang also thought that if Shibayama Kenshiro discussed with Kinoshita Eichi, then Major Okamura would definitely not be able to come back. Even if he could come back, he would become a military police unit captain, which would not meet Shibayama Kenshiro's purpose.
Of course, Kinoshita Eichi didn't have any bad opinions about Okamura Mikizo. The main reason was that the nature of the matter was so disgusting that an unprepared person was actually plotted by Shibayama Kenshiro.
"Your Excellency, General, I think General Chaishan has a very strong style of doing things. He works quietly behind the scenes, making it difficult for people to detect. He is obviously an expert at playing tricks and conspiracy. No wonder he can be the director of the Bamboo Agency.
!”
"I'm going to hide more from now on. Kojima Nariko and I have a grudge. Until now, we haven't found out who was responsible. Don't let General Shibayama target you. That would be a huge trouble." Chen Mingxiang said deliberately.
His approach is very simple. He is taking advantage of the situation and saying it first. When Kinoshita Eiichi is angry, he will definitely not be biased towards the Ume Agency. Deep in his heart, there will be a subconscious feeling that the Ume Agency will definitely take Kojima.
Let’s talk about Nariko’s things.
"What is there to be afraid of? You are a member of our army military police system. What if Shibayama Kenshiro is targeting you? He is just the chief officer of the military advisory group. He is only responsible for supervising the implementation of the empire's new policies on behalf of the military and cabinet.
Still can’t cover the sky with one hand!”
"Besides, everyone in Shanghai knows that Kojima Nariko had a problem with you. At that time, the public concession was turned upside down, but Kojima Nariko was killed after being released from prison. This may be a deliberate frame-up by the enemy!"
"If you can't even see such a stupid and low-level method, and still want to harass you with this matter, I will naturally come forward. The gendarmerie outside the customs dare to take over the secret service's lair. Don't our gendarmerie in central China not do this?
How dare you, clean up the intelligence team of the Mei Agency?" Kinoshita Eichi said with a sneer.
Any institution stationed outside the mainland will be subject to varying degrees of supervision. This is a matter of common sense. It is impossible to be unrestricted. For example, Japanese expatriates and Japanese businessmen are subject to the supervision of the Special Higher Education Section of the Consulate General in Shanghai.
The gendarmerie stationed in Shanghai has the power to supervise the operation of military institutions in order to prevent power from getting out of control and endangering the interests of the empire.
Therefore, although the military police stationed in Shanghai did not dare to take down the headquarters of the Mei Agency, it was within the scope of their duties to deal with the intelligence departments under the Mei Agency, and Shibayama Kenshiro could not say anything else.
However, such crude methods are rarely used unless it is absolutely necessary. Everyone still focuses on communication. If it really breaks down, it will not be beneficial to anyone.
"Shibayama Kenshiro transferred Lieutenant Colonel Kitazawa Taira, a veteran of the Army Ministry's secret service stationed in Tsu City, to the Mei Agency as the intelligence director. Chen Jun, do you know about this?" Goshima Shigeru asked.
In the subordinate departments of Mei's agency, many important positions are held by officers from the military police system. They are all connected with each other. It is normal for him to know some information.
Moreover, before Shibayama Kenshiro officially took office, he had to inform all parties about the personnel arrangements in advance. Kitazawa Ping was not an ordinary intelligence officer, but the intelligence director of the Mei Agency.
"When I was outside the customs, Major General Yanagida Genzo mentioned that General Shibayama transferred an intelligence expert from the Bingcheng secret service headquarters to Shanghai. I don't know anything else." Chen Mingxiang said.
Of course he won't hide it. This is also a manifestation of value, but he can't tell the details. For example, he has seen the files of Kitazawa Ping of the Ice City Secret Service Headquarters.
"Shibayama Kenshiro is not a big threat to you. You are a bit far away from him. The main job of the Mei Agency is to protect the interests of the empire and promote the cooperation between various departments of the Jinling government and imperial agencies. The smuggling transactions you performed do not belong to him.
jurisdiction.”
"But you have to be careful Bei Zeping, this guy is not an ordinary insidious guy. In Chinese terms, he is a smiling tiger. He always seems to be modest and courteous, but in fact his methods are very sinister.
I like to engage in shady conspiracies the most," Shigeru Goshima said.
He is really reluctant to leave Shanghai. The income from staying here for a year will immediately make his family a member of Japan's wealthy class after returning to Japan. At least two generations will be able to eat and drink!
The more this happens, the more he expects to get more. Unfortunately, he doesn't have this opportunity. He will have to hand over the job in another month, and he feels very conflicted.
"Your Excellency General, due to the real shortage of cotton, I am planning to close down the Suzhou No. 2 Textile Factory and the No. 3 Textile Factory, and retain the largest No. 1 Textile Factory to produce cotton for the Kwantung Army. Considering the current situation, in a short time
Don’t even think about starting work again,” Chen Mingxiang said.
"The Japan Textile Industry Association received an order from the Military Ministry to produce cotton cloth for the imperial army, and it also had to support the local part. It was under great pressure. Coupled with the local people's demand for cotton cloth, it is estimated that the shortage of cotton resources will be difficult to suppress.
.”
"It doesn't matter if you close two factories, so as not to waste your salary but have no way to start work. I will explain it to the dispatched army headquarters and the 13th Army Headquarters. This is not your problem." Kinoshita Eiichi nodded.
said.
Chen Mingxiang wants to close two textile factories in Suzhou, which means that Huatong Trading Company and the Kuomintang-controlled area's smuggled material transactions have been reduced by half. The consequence of this is that the transaction volume has been reduced, and the dividends of the Military Police Headquarters will naturally
will also be greatly affected.
But even though Kinoshita Eichi is reluctant to part with this income, he can't change the current situation. Concentrating resources to serve the war is an order from the military. Not only can he just watch and worry, but also the dispatched army headquarters and the 13th Army
