Seeing Kawashima Jinwu's hesitation, Wu Baozhong continued: "Your Excellency Colonel, the situation in Tianjin is unstable now, and many people have other thoughts. Holding a rally can appease people's hearts.
At least we can force these people to be united with the imperial army. This is a double win, so why are you still hesitant?"
There was a hint of confusion in Wu Baozhong's tone. After all, he had just arrived in Tianjin not long ago and didn't know the situation here, so he thought this proposal was a good one.
"Captain Wu, the situation in Tianjin is complicated, and the empire cannot impose force on many people, so things are not so easy to handle.
Let’s talk about convening a meeting. If it turns out to be self-defeating, what will we do?”
The reason why Kawashima Jinwu hesitated was not only because he could not preside over this matter, but also because he was worried that it would be self-defeating. After all, bringing together people from all walks of life in Tianjin would be quite risky. If something went wrong at the gathering, he, the commander, would be responsible for it.
Bad luck.
"Your Majesty Colonel, as long as we are fully prepared, no one can try to sabotage it. How could something go wrong?"
Wu Baozhong was not worried about safety issues, and his tone was full of confidence. After all, he believed that Tianjin was under the control of the Japanese, and the Japanese and traitors took the initiative, so there would be no problem in ensuring the safety of a rally.
"The anti-Japanese elements in Tianjin are rampant, especially the military commanders and underground parties, who are even more difficult to deal with. Don't forget, we have fought against them several times, but we have not gained any advantage.
According to your plan, if you make the rally huge, there will definitely be a lot of people participating. How can we ensure safety?"
The failure of these several operations left a big shadow on Kawashima Jinwu. He was not as confident as before in doing things, and he seemed a bit timid.
Especially what happened tonight made Kawashima Jinwu lose a lot of confidence in Wu Baozhong. After all, the traitor fell into the trap and almost lost his life. Under such circumstances, how could Kawashima Jinwu completely trust Wu Baozhong?
,
"Your Majesty Colonel, the failure of these operations is not entirely due to us. After all, the concession is the stronghold of anti-Japanese elements. They have been operating there for a long time and have gained many advantages. Naturally, we will suffer.
But the urban area of Tianjin is different. This is the territory of the Imperial Army. As long as we lure the anti-Japanese elements here, it will be easy for us to do anything. As long as the anti-Japanese elements leak some clues, I will be confident to find them!"
In order to eliminate Juntong and ensure his own safety, Wu Baozhong tried his best to persuade Kawashima Jinwu, because this traitor believed that as long as he introduced Juntong people into the urban area, he could find clues and then eliminate the anti-Japanese forces.
"This is not a small matter, I need to think about it!"
Kawashima Jinwu was still a little hesitant, because according to Wu Baozhong's plan, there were many uncertainties in the matter, and he couldn't decide. He had to ask for instructions from Tanaka Misuke, and the military police captain would take charge of the matter.
Seeing that Kawashima Jinwu was still hesitating, Wu Baozhong sighed and wanted to go directly to Tanaka Weisuke. However, if he did so, he would offend the commander. After all, it was taboo to report beyond the level.
Besides, although Tanaka Weisuke was kind to Wu Baozhong, he was only polite on the surface. This traitor was self-aware and did not dare to do this at all, so he had to stay silent and continue to think about how to deal with the military commander.
Three days passed quickly. Zhang Hao had already found out the situation, so he put a few overseas Chinese on a passenger ship bound for Guangzhou Bay with a slight cover-up. In order to ensure safety, he also sent two agents to protect the group.
You can reach Guangzhou Bay safely.
As for arriving at Guangzhou Bay, Li Yunsheng didn't worry anymore, because he had already contacted the headquarters and there would be other people to take care of him.
Xu Bing also received a telegram from the headquarters. The first batch of counterfeit Japanese yen has arrived in Shanxi, and the North China District has sent someone to hand it over.
Li Yunsheng was very surprised when he got the news. He asked in surprise: "It was printed so quickly and it arrived in Shanxi."
The action of the military commander this time was really too fast. It has only been three days since I received the telegram that the printing was successful, but the first batch of Japanese yen has already been shipped to Shanxi. It is really surprising. After all, the National Government is doing things
, has always been procrastinating.
"District Chief, the situation this time is different. Using counterfeit Japanese yen to exchange materials and US dollars can be said to be a sure profit, but it is still a business without capital. Chongqing will naturally be very active!"
Xu Bing was not surprised by this result, because this little woman knew Chongqing's style better than Li Yunsheng, so she explained with a smile.
"You are right, but there is another important reason. The government's finances should be very tight, so there are many people looking at this money, otherwise it would not be so fast!"
There was a bit of disdain in Li Yunsheng's tone, and he thought to himself that if the money could not be converted into supplies and US dollars, it is estimated that the greedy officials in Chongqing would never be so efficient. After all, these yen
After the money is spent, many people can get a share of it.
"District Chief, the message sent from the headquarters said that this batch of yen is worth 20 million yen. The amount is so huge that we may not be able to digest it in a short time."
Xu Bing's tone was a little heavy. After all, 20 million yen is not a small amount. If it is put on the market in Tianjin all at once, it may not be digested at all.
Li Yunsheng also frowned a little. He didn't expect the headquarters to be so generous and gave Tianjin Transport 20 million yen in one fell swoop.
Li Yunsheng would be very happy if all these yen were used to fund military reunification, but the headquarters solemnly emphasized that the money must be spent and half of it must be exchanged for U.S. dollars, which would be a bit troublesome.
According to the current exchange rate, 20 million yen can be exchanged for more than 4 million U.S. dollars, half of which is about 2 million U.S. dollars. Now that the U.S. dollar is the common currency, it is by no means an easy task to convert Japanese yen into U.S. dollars.
, not to mention how big the number is.
After thinking for a while, Li Yunsheng said calmly: "Let's take it slow, as long as we can spend the money within a month."
Li Yunsheng originally planned to spend the money in a short period of time, but the amount of counterfeit yen was too large, so he had to change his mind.
"But the headquarters still requires half of the US dollars to be exchanged. How should we solve this problem?"
Exchanging U.S. dollars now is inherently difficult. After all, everyone knows that the U.S. dollar is the strongest currency, not to mention that the amount is so large, it is even more difficult.
"We can only spend all this money, turn it into scarce items, and then slowly convert it into U.S. dollars!"
Li Yunsheng didn't have any good ideas, so he could only use this stupid method, so his tone was a little helpless.
After listening to Li Yunsheng's words, Xu Bing nodded. After all, she was a smart woman and knew this was the only way to go.
Three days later, the counterfeit Japanese yen had arrived in Tianjin. Li Yunsheng summoned his men and started a large-scale purchasing mode.
However, these money are all counterfeit banknotes, so Li Yunsheng emphasized that he should try his best to trade with traitors and not harm ordinary businessmen.
And because these counterfeit banknotes will be exposed sooner or later, every operative needs to change their appearance and cannot use their real identity to avoid being found by the Japanese in the future.
At the same time, Tanaka Weisuke also received news that the Republic of China had imitated the Japanese yen and was likely to use it on a large scale, so that all occupied areas should pay attention.
In the eyes of Tanaka Weisuke, this news has no value at all. After all, the Nationalist Government has imitated the Japanese yen more than once. However, due to poor technology, the imitated Japanese yen is easily identifiable and has no value at all.
However, Tanaka Misuke was cautious. Although he did not believe that the Nationalist government could imitate a realistic Japanese yen, he still called Kawashima Kintake and asked the agents to pay attention.
"Your Excellency General, you said that the Chinese government has copied the Japanese yen. Isn't that a joke?"
Kawashima Jinwu's tone was full of disdain. After all, Japan is a technological powerhouse, and the Japanese yen also has a high technological content, so it is difficult to successfully imitate it.
"I don't think the Chinese can imitate the Japanese yen, but the information comes from the Super High School Headquarters, so we should pay attention to it."
Tanaka Weisuke's tone was very calm. After all, he did not believe that the Republic of China could imitate the Japanese yen.
"This information is absolutely untrustworthy. You must know that the Japanese yen of the Empire of Japan has a very high technical content. Even the powerful European and American countries cannot imitate it!"
Kawashima Jinwu's tone was full of confidence, and the expression on his face was firm.
"Just pay attention to this matter, lest something really goes wrong."
After a pause, he then asked: "By the way, do you have any clues about those anti-Japanese elements and the Chinese people from Southeast Asia?"
Tanaka Misuke is very busy. After all, he is a senior general of the Japanese military in Tianjin. Although he is mainly responsible for public security, many things require the military police captain to come forward. Therefore, the pursuit of anti-Japanese elements is almost left to Kawashima Jinwu.
.
"Your Majesty General, there are no clues yet. We still need some time."
Speaking of the anti-Japanese forces, Kawashima Jinwu was in a very low mood. After all, this little devil had no clues.
Especially during this period, all roads leaving Tianjin were blocked by the Japanese military in an attempt to find those overseas Chinese, but there were no clues.
Now Kawashima Jinwu already knew that he would not be able to find those overseas Chinese, but he was unwilling to give up the blockade, and the matter remained at a stalemate.
As for Wu Baozhong's suggestion, Kawashima Jinwu did not mention it, because the recent frequent mistakes made the little devil even more careful, for fear of an accident.
"The blockade for such a long time has affected the stability of Tianjin and made the military police very tired, so you need to speed up the investigation."
Setting up checkpoints on the road leaving Tianjin will definitely affect the situation in Tianjin. Moreover, the Japanese have insufficient troops and have added so many checkpoints, which has made the soldiers very tired. Therefore, the Japanese soldiers at the bottom are already complaining.
It was for this reason that Tanaka Weisuke urged Kawashima Jinwu. After all, the Japanese couldn't afford it if they kept going like this.
"Hi, I obey my orders!"
Kawashima Jinwu immediately expressed his position, but he didn't have any confidence in his heart, so he could only deal with it first.
