Chapter 899: Casting a Net to Intercept Six
It has been a few days since I returned to Shanghai from Guanwai and North China, but the strange thing is that the headquarters of the military police stationed in Shanghai has not mentioned this matter, and Chen Mingxiang wants to know if there is any change, so he takes the initiative to pick up the inside story.
Shigeru Goto is a descendant of Kinoshita Sakae City, and he gets along well with Chen Mingxiang, but in comparison, after all, it is still not as deep as the relationship between Gangmura Shaozo, the key is that Gangmura Shizo was implicated and was transferred to the Jiangxia Military Police Detachment as the captain, Chen Mingxiang made a special trip to visit and invited him to drink, and Gangcun Shizo looked at him differently.
"The news you heard is not wrong at all, this is a ghost that Kanshiro Shibayama secretly did, and he didn't consult me in advance, and actually interfered in the personnel transfer of the military police stationed in Shanghai, his hand stretched out too long."
"At present, he is shouldering the mission of the military department and the cabinet, and I have consulted with the headquarters of the Tokyo Military Police Command several times, but the results have not been saved, and Goto-kun will officially return to Japan at the end of April." Sakaiichi Kinoshita was very angry.
The Japanese Army Military Police has its own system and never allows others to stretch out their hands, but Kaneshiro Shibayama broke the rules and made his own decisions without consulting with the commander of the gendarmerie, which was also a taboo thing within the Japanese army.
Chen Mingxiang also thought that if Shibayama Kaneshiro and Kinoshita Sakae discussed it, then Gangcun Shaozo would definitely not be able to come back, even if he could come back, that is, to be the captain of the military police, which was not in line with Shibayama Kaneshiro's purpose.
Of course, Kinoshita Sakae City doesn't have a bad opinion of Shizo Gangmura, the main thing is that the nature of this matter is too disgusting, and one is not guarded, and he was actually calculated by Shibayama Kanshiro.
"Your Excellency General, I think this General Shibayama's style of doing things is very strong, and he is quietly laid out behind the scenes, which makes people unguardable, and he is obviously an expert who is good at playing tricks and conspiracies, no wonder he can be the head of the bamboo organ!"
"I'm going to hide in the future, Kojima Nariko has a grudge against me, and I haven't found out who is the black hand until now, don't be targeted by General Shibayama, it's a big trouble." Chen Mingxiang said deliberately.
His approach is very simple, that is, he is taking advantage of the situation, first speaking in front, when Kinoshita Eichi is annoyed, he will definitely not be biased towards the Mei Agency, and a subconscious will be formed in the depths of his heart, and the Mei Agency will definitely talk about the matter of Kojima Nariko.
"What's so scary? You're from our Army's gendarmerie system, so what if Kanshiro Shibayama is eyeing you? He is just the chief officer of the military advisory group, and he is only responsible for supervising the implementation of the new policies of the empire on behalf of the military department and the cabinet, and he can't do it single-handedly! ”
"Besides, the whole Shanghai market is known to know that Kojima Nariko had a holiday with you, and at that time, the public concession was turned upside down, but Kojima Nariko was killed after being released from prison, which may be deliberately planted by the enemy!"
"If you can't even see such stupid and inferior means, and want to harass you with this matter, I will naturally come forward, the gendarmerie outside the customs dares to end the nest of the secret service, don't we have the courage to clean up the intelligence group of the Mei agency?" Kinoshita Eichi said with a sneer.
For example, Japanese expatriates and Japanese businessmen will be subject to the supervision of the Consulate General in Shanghai, and the gendarmerie in Shanghai has the power to supervise the operation of the military agency Mei, which is to avoid the loss of control of power and endanger the interests of the empire.
Therefore, although the gendarmerie stationed in Shanghai did not dare to take the headquarters of the Mei organ, it was within the scope of its duties to clean up the intelligence department under the Mei organ, and Shibayama Kaneshiro could not say anything else.
It's just that this kind of brutal means rarely occurs unless it is absolutely necessary, and everyone still focuses on communication, and it is not good for anyone to really tear their faces.
"Shibayama Kaneshiro transferred his old subordinate Kitazawa Ping Nakasa, who was in the Ministry of Army's secret service in Jincheng, to the Mei agency as the intelligence director, do you know this Chen Jun?" Shigeru Goto asked.
In the subordinate departments of the Mei organ, many important posts are held by officers from the gendarmerie system, and they are all in contact with each other, and it is normal for him to know some information.
In addition, before Shibayama Kaneshiro officially took office, he had to inform all parties in advance of the personnel arrangements, and Kitazawa was not an ordinary intelligence officer, but the intelligence director of the Mei agency.
"When I was outside the customs, Major General Yanagida Motozo mentioned that General Shibayama had transferred an intelligence expert from the headquarters of the Bingcheng secret service to Shanghai, and I don't know anything else." Chen Mingxiang said.
Of course he won't hide it, this is also a manifestation of value, but the details can't be said, for example, he has seen the files of Kitazawa Ping, the headquarters of the Bingcheng secret service.
"Shibayama Kaneshiro is not a big threat to you, you are a little 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 the imperial institutions, and the smuggling transactions you carry out are not under his jurisdiction."
"But you have to beware of Bei Zeping, this guy is not ordinary insidious, in the words of the Chinese, he is a smiling tiger, he always seems to be humble and polite, in fact, the means are very vicious, and he likes to engage in those shady conspiracies and tricks the most." Shigeru Goto said.
He is really reluctant to leave Shanghai, and when he returns to Japan, he will immediately make his family a member of the wealthy class in Japan, and at least two generations will have enough to eat and drink!
The more this is the case, the more extravagant he hopes to get more, but unfortunately, he doesn't have this opportunity, and he has to hand over the work in another month, and he is very conflicted.
"Your Excellency General, due to the shortage of cotton, I am ready to close down the No. 2 Textile Factory and the No. 3 Textile Factory in Suzhou, and retain the largest No. 1 Textile Factory to produce cotton cloth for the Kwantung Army. Chen Mingxiang said.
"The Japanese textile industry association received instructions from the military department to produce cotton cloth for the imperial army, and it has to support a part of the local area, and its own pressure is very great, coupled with the local people's demand for cotton cloth, it is estimated that the shortage of cotton resources is difficult to suppress."
"Whether you close the two factories, so as not to waste your salary and have no way to start work, I will explain it to the General Headquarters of the Dispatch Army and the Command of the 13th Army, and this is not your problem." Kinoshita Eichi nodded and said.
Chen Mingxiang wants to close down two textile factories in Suzhou, which is equivalent to a halving of the smuggling goods trade between the Huatong Trading Company and the Guotong District, and the consequence of this is that the transaction volume will be reduced, and the dividends of the military police headquarters will naturally be greatly affected.
But although Kinoshita Eichi was reluctant to pay this income, he couldn't change the current situation, and it was the order of the military headquarters to concentrate resources to serve the war, not only could he only watch and be anxious, but even the headquarters of the dispatch army and the headquarters of the 13th army were also staring dryly.
