Nine hundred and seventieth chapters dig a small pit six
Looking at a pile of clearly taken photos and listening to Kitazawa's embellished report, Kenshiro Shibayama couldn't help but frown. In the case of a food shortage in the Shanghai stock market, Chen Mingxiang's Huatong Trading Company, no, it should be said that Feng
The Chinese company secretly stockpiled grain on a large scale, and the amount was still astonishing. This was indeed a very important event.
"Kitazawa-kun, although you have obtained conclusive evidence, Chen Mingxiang is not an ordinary person and is not that easy to deal with. He holds a prominent position in the Jinling government and holds a very important position. He also has a very deep network of relationships among the top brass of our imperial army stationed in China.
.”
"Although the nature of this matter is bad, it is not enough to bring down a person of his level. Huatong Trading Company is very important to the imperial army. In the smuggling of strategic materials, he accounts for 70 to 80% of the entire Central China region. The dispatched troops
The headquarters will not punish him severely for this matter," Shibayama Kenshiro said.
When he came to the Mei Agency to take over the post of director, Chen Mingxiang came into sight. He was a figure that could not be avoided. Strictly speaking, this little guy was a businessman who made a fortune by relying on the imperial army to reach a high position. He was not a bureaucrat either.
Not a spy.
Chen Mingxiang gives people the impression that he is calm and down-to-earth, with a maturity that belies his age. He never offends people easily. He is also very generous and very sociable. Many generals in the upper echelons of the imperial army have a good relationship with him.
The position of Police Secretary was recommended by the previous agency director, Matsui Tataro.
However, he also knew that Chen Mingxiang was not a direct descendant of Matsui Tataro's confidant, nor was he a direct descendant of Kage Sasaki's confidant. He was a direct descendant of the military police system, and he was extremely popular.
All the gendarmerie in central China have a rich income and a prosperous life because of him, and his relationship with the Marine Corps is also very strong. The navy also recommended him to become the deputy director of the Shanghai Social Affairs Bureau.
If anyone else had done this, it would have been a terrible crime. They would stockpile food during a food shortage! But for Chen Mingxiang, the lethality was minimal. Maybe there was the tacit approval of the military.
"Captain, I didn't want to use this thing to defeat him, but I wanted to expose his true face and not always wear a false mask of loyalty to the empire and confuse the senior leaders of the dispatched army."
"I hope that the head of the agency can come forward to work with the headquarters of the dispatched army and ask the headquarters to send people to investigate and turn this batch of food into rations for the imperial army and teach him a painful lesson."
"This is a protest submitted by the merchants of the Shanghai Empire. The food shortage in Shanghai has led to a general strike, which has also interfered with the production of major enterprises. Chen Mingxiang's actions have seriously harmed the interests of the Empire and also
It hurts the interests of the military."
"Director, I want to use this matter to suppress Chen Mingxiang and combat his arrogance. He has huge resources in his hands. If the intelligence team of the Mei Agency wants to continue to expand and make more achievements for the empire,
, there is a need to rely on him." Kitazawaping said.
Before finding irrefutable evidence of Chen Mingxiang's identity, he was coveting Chen Mingxiang's abundant resources. He could always access the transportation channels in the Kuomintang-controlled area, purchasing stations and radio stations in various places, and the higher police academy. This was his dream.
"Okay, I will find a suitable time in the past two days to raise this issue to the headquarters and try to send an investigation team to Shanghai as soon as possible to investigate Chen Mingxiang's Tunmi incident. This matter is not as simple as you think. Headquarters
Sending people will inevitably offend the intelligence agencies in Shanghai, and if you want to hide behind it, it will be almost difficult," Shibayama Kenshiro said.
There was no large-scale formation at Hongqiao Airport. Only Chen Mingxiang and Jinling government advisers, members of the Mei Agency, and Major General Yoshitaro Kawamoto, the Secret Service Chief of the Thirteenth Army Headquarters, made a special trip to welcome the arrival of Kage Sasaki.
As for Qingyin Qingqi, although his plane also landed here, as an army colonel, he was not qualified to be greeted by a major general like Yoshitaro Kawamoto.
In this grain transaction between the Japanese Navy and Fenghua Company, Yoshitaro Kawamoto also received a large amount of money, which was regarded as protection money. Naturally, his attitude was even more friendly. Ever since Kage Sasaki established a connection between Chen Mingxiang and the old subordinates of the Mei Agency, he has
Chen Mingxiang got a lot here.
Qingqi Qingyin was in Peiping, which was relatively close to Shanghai. His plane landed at the airport first, and he spent the next three days smoking and chatting, waiting for Yingzuo Zhenzhao's flight.
"I don't quite understand. Your Excellency the General is staying well at the 7th Artillery Headquarters. Why does he want to go to the forefront of Rabaul Fortress to serve as the division commander? Is it his own wish, or is the Kwantung Army going south?"
Chen Mingxiang asked.
"The reason for this result is because the Jinling government made a fuss and shirks the tasks assigned by the empire and refuses to contribute. The corruption and corruption from top to bottom also seriously affects the empire's material requisition. The Chamber of Commerce and Unification is
The most obvious example."
"The Tojo Cabinet and the Military Ministry were helpless at what Chairman Wang and his gang had done, and they transferred their anger to General Kagesa. The Rabaul Fortress was isolated in the far south. They said they were fighting on the front line for the empire.
It’s actually a disguised form of punishment.”
"The Kwantung Army is actually going south. I have received news about this. But it is not the main force going south. It is the army aviation, air defense force and artillery, as well as some armored forces. In fact, some work started as early as after New Year's Day.
On January 30, the headquarters of the 8th Flying Regiment was transferred to Malay, and on March 14, the 14th Flying Regiment was transferred to New Guinea."
"This incident has nothing to do with the mobilization of the Kwantung Army. It is purely caused by the Jinling government. Of course, Kenshiro Shibayama didn't say anything good. He couldn't push forward his work, so he passed the responsibility to General Kagezu. What a bastard.
People!" Qingqi Qingyin said with a sneer.
The Wang Puppet Government and the Japanese used each other, but there was no trust at all between them. Although the Wang Puppet Government did not dare to disobey the Japanese army's instructions, they made small moves in private. To put it simply, it means
,drag!
In the final analysis, it is still because of interests. The Wang Puppet Government fantasizes about being able to rule for a long time. Its own corruption and exploitation are one thing, but it is unwilling to turn itself into a tool of Japanese plunder. The Japanese want the Wang Puppet Government to provide
The resources required for the war are constantly exerting pressure, and the conflicts between the two sides are getting deeper and deeper.
Faced with Wang's puppet government, which is as ruthless as a hob, the Japanese have also fallen into the ashes. They can't be beaten too hard or too lightly. They have been having headaches for more than a day or two.
In the current situation, it is no longer possible to support another puppet government. The Japanese government, which was holding back its anger, vented its anger on Kage Sasaki. This is all a good thing caused by you!
