On November 1, 1941, the Japanese and puppets launched the third public security strengthening campaign.
This time the security strengthening campaign focuses on economic warfare as the mainstay, and an economic blockade will be implemented against the Japanese base areas.
There are 6 internal line inspection stations, 11 outer line inspection stations, and 6 water inspection stations in Haigu, for a total of 23 material inspection stations.
At the same time, an economic inspection team was organized, an economic blockade was carried out, and various important supplies existing in Haigu were investigated.
At the same time, the Japanese and puppet authorities announced the implementation of a "citizen food rationing system" and implemented food rationing for the entire city's residents.
In order to implement the "citizen food rationing system", 17 rationing offices were set up throughout the city.
"The situation is getting more and more serious now." Lu Chengzhou said to Ma Yuzhen after returning home in the evening.
Although the British Concession Gendarmerie detachment is located in the concession, it is obvious that the rule of the Japanese and puppets is becoming more and more brutal.
Even the residents' food must be rationed. This is to plunder all the resources of Haigu and even North China.
"Did you attend the meeting today?" Ma Yuzhen asked.
On the surface, she is a reporter for Yongbao, and she has also joined the "Police Detective Network". She has the obligation and responsibility to eliminate the gangsters in Haigu.
"Yes, a water inspection station has also been set up in the Haihe concession section." Lu Chengzhou said slowly.
During this time, Kawasaki Hiroshi also frequently participated in meetings of Japan's Haigu Army Secret Service.
Judging from Kawasaki Hiroshi's attitude, he seems to be increasingly dissatisfied with the British.
For example, starting from November 17, it will take two weeks to conduct another major inspection of the city's household registrations and verify the resident certificates.
Kawasaki Hiroshi proposed to the police station that they also conduct household registration checks on the residents of the British Concession, and at the same time require residents of the British Concession to apply for resident certificates recognized by the Municipal Office.
Lu Chengzhou had a feeling that the storm was about to come. He always felt that the Japanese had not been holding back anything good recently.
"This information must be reported to the organization in a timely manner. I always feel that something big is going to happen," Ma Yuzhen said.
"I feel the same way, and even more so since the 27th Division was transferred." Lu Chengzhou said slowly.
"Should the 27th Division go south or north?" Ma Yuzhen asked.
Since the war between Germany and the Soviet Union, there has been talk about whether Japan should take the opportunity to invade the Soviet Union or go south to open up a new battlefield in Southeast Asia.
"The Japanese army has done an excellent job of keeping secrets, but judging from the military uniforms they prepared, it is very likely that they are going south." Lu Chengzhou has been inquiring about the news.
Finally, he learned from Sun Zhishu that the Japanese army had prepared a large number of summer uniforms.
From this, Lu Chengzhou judged that the 27th Division should go south to join the war.
But this is just Lu Chengzhou's judgment. To convince the organization, more information is needed.
After all, if the intelligence of this kind of strategic group goes wrong, the consequences will be disastrous.
It is entirely possible that the cunning Japanese deliberately produced large quantities of summer uniforms while the Japanese army suddenly attacked Siberia.
The movements of the Japanese army are likely to change the pattern of world war.
Going north, Japan's war resources will soon be exhausted, and the whole of Japan, and even the entire area controlled by the Japanese army in China, will be destroyed.
But if it succeeds, the Soviet Union will be divided between Germany and Japan.
Going south, the Japanese army will easily obtain the war resources in Southeast Asia, which will greatly ease their war pressure.
"What are you going to do?" Ma Yuzhen asked.
"Report it truthfully, followed by our inferences." Lu Chengzhou said seriously.
Information must be accurate, and all inferences and assumptions cannot even be made.
When Lu Chengzhou added his own inference at the end, he actually had to take a certain risk.
Ma Yuzhen is Lu Chengzhou's traffic officer, and she has to send out the information compiled by Lu Chengzhou.
The next day, after Lu Chengzhou went to the military police detachment, he received news that the British Consulate General in Haigu notified the expatriates living in Haigu to register for evacuation and return to the country.
This is a strong signal that Britain is ready to completely abandon the concession in Haigu.
"Teacher, are we going to have full contact with the British Concession soon?" Lu Chengzhou said excitedly.
"No rush, just wait a while." Kawasaki Hiroshi said with a smile.
As long as some time passes, the British Concession Military Police detachment will no longer be as useless as it is now.
By then, the British Concession Gendarmerie detachment, like other Gendarmerie detachments, will have the power to interrogate, arrest, and even punish residents of the British Concession on the streets at any time.
At that time, the police department will become a secondary unit of the military police detachment.
"How long do we have to wait? I can't wait to take over the police department." Lu Chengzhou said with a smile.
"You can't eat hot tofu in a hurry. This is an old Chinese saying." Kawasaki Hiroshi said with a smile.
"Teacher, do you want to send someone from the Super High Class to the Water Inspection Station?" Lu Chengzhou asked.
There are 6 water inspection stations in the city, one of which is occupied by the British Concession Military Police Detachment.
At the last meeting, Kawasaki Hiroshi made it clear that the Intelligence Office would be in charge of the water inspection station and also serve as the director of the inspection station.
"Just let your people participate." Kawasaki Hiroshi shook his head.
Under the leadership of Lu Chengzhou, the Intelligence Room's business capabilities are getting stronger and stronger.
Even in some aspects, Bit High Class is even better than it.
The intelligence team that arrested Li Jiaquan last time, the operation of the Intelligence Room was successful, but the special high class did not even see Li Jiaquan.
"Teacher, please rest assured. I will check carefully and never let any contraband pass through the Haihe River." Lu Chengzhou said firmly.
In fact, at this time, Lu Chengzhou was thinking about how he could fish out oil and water through this water inspection station.
Power and money are always partners. As long as you have power, money will soon roll in.
In the Intelligence Room, there is only Akio Ishida, a Japanese consultant.
However, under the "influence" of Lu Chengzhou over the past few years, Ishida Akio has become more and more like a Chinese.
As long as Akio Ishida loves money and sex, Lu Chengzhou has nothing to worry about.
The above-water inspection station can definitely make a lot of money. In the future, this will be the most important source of oil and water for the intelligence room.
As Akio Ishida is a consultant in the Intelligence Room, Lu Chengzhou will naturally not treat him badly.
"You need to go to the General Affairs Division of the Military Police to get the equipment for the water inspection station." Kawasaki Hiroshi reminded.
"I'll go today and train for a few days first. I can't let the water inspection station embarrass the teacher." Lu Chengzhou said.
Lu Chengzhou had actually wanted to go to the gendarmerie headquarters for a long time, but he never found the opportunity.
Akiyama Yoshio, the section chief of the General Affairs Section, was originally a member of the 1st Regiment of the 27th Division. If anyone knows the whereabouts of the 27th Division, Akiyama Yoshio may be the one.
According to Chinese practice, if you receive equipment from the General Affairs Department, you must leave some benefits to the other party.
Of course, Lu Chengzhou was no exception. He brought one hundred yen to Akiyama Yoshio.
"In the future, if you need any equipment, you can come and get it at any time." Akiyama Yoshio said with a smile after accepting the money.
The last time he resold supplies from military warehouses, he made a fortune, which made Akiyama Yoshio deeply realize that money is really a good thing.
