Nine hundred and seventieth eight chapters dig a small pit eleven
"I remember that the scope of functions of the intelligence team of Mei's agency does not include supervision of material circulation in Shanghai. When you receive a report, you can transfer it to the Marine Corps Headquarters or Military Police Headquarters for processing, or you can report it to the Consulate General in Shanghai.
Such direct intervention is an overstep of authority and lacks even the most basic discipline," Yingzuo Zhenzhao said at the side.
The Mei Agency is a special agency that supervises the Jinling government. The function of its intelligence team is to collect military intelligence in the Kuomintang-controlled areas and deal with the anti-Japanese organizations in central China. If Chen Mingxiang is a spy, they can take care of it, but they are not qualified to take care of economic affairs.
Not to mention naval matters.
Kitazawa looked at the scene with some despair. He knew that even if he offended the Navy, the Consulate General in Shanghai, or even the Gendarmerie Headquarters, it didn't matter. He was from the Mei Agency and did not need to rely on these.
Departmental organizations, the most critical one is Kenshiro Shibayama, his old superior and direct superior.
But there was only one thing that Shibayama Kenshiro hated most about the stimulation from Kage Sasaki. They had been in conflict for so many years, and he had never won once. Maybe just one word from Kage Sasaki could make him lose his cool.
"This is simply a farce, General Shibayama. I am very disappointed with the work of the Mei agency intelligence team. I believe that the Commander-in-Chief also holds the same view on this. Now that the truth has emerged, I will not be involved in how it ends.
, then report the results to the headquarters.”
"Lieutenant Colonel Kitazawa Ping, as the intelligence director of Mei Agency, you are so careless in your work. This makes me very disappointed. Since General Shadow established Mei Agency, such low-level mistakes have not happened. I hope you can learn from it.
Lesson learned." Nagatsu Sahige turned around and walked away.
He was indeed very angry when he came up with this result. He originally thought that Chen Mingxiang was collecting grain secretly, but unexpectedly he was purchasing grain reserves for the navy. He was indeed a loyal follower of the empire.
Kitazawa felt that this moment was the most gloomy, embarrassing and humiliating moment in his life, but the question was, who could he blame? As for purchasing rations for the navy, all his arrangements had become a joke, and he had no ability to reverse it.
He even thought of committing seppuku!
"Okamura-kun, take all the military police back to the headquarters, let's go!" Kinoshita Eichi said, his intestines almost bursting from laughter.
A few minutes later, only Shibayama Kenshiro and Kitazawa Ping were left at the scene, as well as several agents from the Mei Agency Intelligence Team, who were responsible for monitoring and taking photos.
Half an hour later, everyone in the Mei agency intelligence team was frightened. A dull slap came from Bei Zeping's office, but there was no other sound.
The sound rang for a long time. Some people saw Lieutenant General Shibayama Kenshiro coming out of the office angrily, getting in the car and leaving. Kitazawa Ping chased him out, frightening everyone.
His face was swollen like a pig's head, his nose and mouth were bleeding, he couldn't stand still when walking, and he hit his head on the door frame. My eyes were probably shining with stars at this time!
"Jingle Bell!"
Chen Mingxiang, who was drinking tea, picked up the phone and heard that it was actually a call from the Mei Agency Liaison Office. He hurriedly handed it to Yoshitaro Kawamoto.
"Director Shibayama is going crazy. I heard that he almost demolished the house in the office and smashed everything that could be smashed. If he is so angry, Kitazawa will definitely not dare to go out for half a month." Kawamoto Youtarou put it down.
He smiled after the phone call.
When he left Mara Villa, he called his office in the Mei Agency and asked the clerk to keep an eye on the agency director's office and report the situation at any time. He could just call Chen Mingxiang's home phone number.
"If I were not present today, Shibayama Kenshiro would definitely not be so angry. He always appears in front of his subordinates with a cold, decisive and calm demeanor. He seldom loses his composure. In fact, his character is very
irritable."
"Of the four major intelligence agencies of the empire, only the Mei Agency still exists. It was obvious that he lost. Kitazawa took over the intelligence team and used the intelligence network established by Yunzi. Finally, he did something.
But it was a farce, which made me laugh. He didn’t chop Kitazawa alive with a knife, so that’s pretty good." Yingzuo Zhenzhao said with a smile.
Since he decided to stay one night, he would still have dinner at Mara Villa. The environment here is very comfortable. Chen Mingxiang’s home has no shortage of delicacies from the mountains and seas, no shortage of cigars, red wine, and good tea. Japanese fine sake and tea are also available.
The boxes were piled in the warehouse, and the chef's cooking skills made him very satisfied.
"General, Shibayama Kenshiro won't hold a grudge against me because of this incident and look for opportunities to retaliate against me, right?" Chen Mingxiang asked.
"It is not necessary to hold a grudge. If he is angry at others because of his own failures, he cannot become a lieutenant general of the empire. Besides, this matter is a joke made by his subordinates. What does it have to do with you? You are doing it for the imperial navy.
Serve."
"Of course, after what happened today, Shibayama Kenshiro will not have a good impression of you. This is human nature and understandable. But you don't have to worry, his hands can't reach you, and your work has no contact with him.
Moreover, Kinoshita Eiichi of the Military Police is a guy who gives everyone a headache when he encounters him, and these friends from the Mei Agency will also help you."
"I calculate that his first goal now is to deal with Li Shiqun. As for his performance, don't even think about it. He is very capable, but he is not good at government affairs. He can do intelligence work, but he can't deal with Jinling.
The government bureaucrats will eventually return to their old profession." Yingzuo Zhenzhao said.
That night, perhaps because of some feeling, Yingzuo Zhenzhao was unusually drunk and was sent to a Japanese hotel instead of staying at Mara Villa. This also made Wang Zhen relieved.
This is the love nest of her and Chen Mingxiang. There is nothing the Japanese can do if they come to eat and drink tea. If they stay here, it will pollute Mara Villa!
"I'm sure Kage Sasaki has already felt the shadow of failure. I was quite out of character tonight. For an army lieutenant general, division commander, or spy chief to get drunk in front of a group of subordinates, it is a very abnormal behavior.
.”
"Based on the fragmentary information he gave, I concluded that neither the Kwantung Army nor the dispatched troops will have large-scale operations in a short period of time. Japan will deploy its navy and aviation forces to fight in the Pacific, and the warships of the front fleet will
, will be transferred gradually." Chen Mingxiang said.
"Are his words credible? Yingzuo Zhenzhao is the founder of the Mei Agency. He has been an agent for many years. He may be tempted." Wang Zhen said doubtfully.
"I think all this can be believed. It is true that he is a veteran agent, but he is not a front-line agent. In addition, he has been transferred to the military and has to defend the Rabaul Fortress. It is not me tonight.
There are also a group of old subordinates from the Mei Agency present, who will not make any probing moves." Chen Mingxiang shook his head and said.
