Volume 7 The Smoke of the Peninsula Chapter 94 The Signs of the Great Purge
Dongji Tanikatsu and others, Murakami Sadamasa asked the secretary to call Yamaga Sujing
Compared to other generals, the commander of the Tokyo garrison, Suzuzu Yamaka, was much more "simple". Born in a civilian family, Yamaga Sujing joined the Japanese Army as a second lieutenant officer at the age of 22 and was still a Ground Self-Defense Force at that time, and for 33 years, Yamaga Sujing has been demanding herself with the strictest standards, promoted step by step, and eventually became an army general. By all accounts, Yamaga Sujing was a "pure" soldier with no political ambitions. To be able to get the absolute trust of Murakami Sadamasa and serve as the commander of the Tokyo garrison of great significance, in addition to being "simple", Yamaga Sujing has an extraordinary relationship with Murakami Sadamasa, and his wife is the daughter adopted by Murakami's father in the same clan, that is, Murakami Sadamasa's sister-in-law.
"You go out first, don't bother if it's okay."
Leaving the secretary, Murakami Sadamasa asked Yamaga Sujing to sit down.
Even in the face of the face, Yamaga Sujing still had a serious face, and straightened her waist after sitting down.
"The situation has been a bit tense lately." Murakami Sadamasa didn't pretend in front of her "brother-in-law" and went straight to the point, "How are the preparations going on over there?" ”
"It's all set."
Murakami nodded and said, "In a few days, I will hold a meeting of senior officers in the name of sending troops, hoping that the garrison will not disappoint me." ”
"I will definitely not disappoint the so-sama." Yamaga Sujing hesitated slightly, "Lord Xiang, is it really necessary?" ”
"You don't think it's necessary?" Murakami asked rhetorically.
"Nope. No! Yamaga Sujing said immediately. I just think. Now ......"
"How many years have you been in the army?" Murakami changed the subject.
"Count the time spent studying at the military school. It's been thirty-seven years. ”
Murakami nodded. said, "As far as I know. You and Shin Sato are military school alumni, right? ”
"Sato-kun is two realms higher than me."
"Sato is not a big problem. As long as he's still in the position of the chief chief. will not pose a threat to us. Murakami Sadamasa smiled coldly. Said. "There's nothing wrong with Dongji. He has learned a lot in recent years. Takashimachi has no small ambitions. But the mind is also smart. Before the situation clears. He doesn't make stupid choices. The real trouble is Iwasaki. This 'guy' has been at odds with me. I heard a few days ago. He also did a lot of things that shouldn't be done. ”
Yamaga Sujing frowned slightly, as if she didn't understand what Xiang meant.
"After I issued the military mobilization order, Iwasaki Nobukawa took the opportunity to inspect the local team and had several secret meetings with middle and senior officers of the Marine Corps and the fleet." Murakami shook his head with a smile, "Iwasaki has political ambitions and thinks the time is ripe to replace me. ”
"Ai-sama, Iwasaki-kun ......"
"Yamaga, there are many questions that you don't understand, but I can see them very clearly." Murakami Sadamasa let out a long breath and said, "Iwasaki thinks he is very smart, but he doesn't understand a truth. ”
"What's the truth?" Yamaga Sojing really has no political talent.
"He's a soldier, not a politician." Murakami Sadamasa smiled faintly and said, "If soldiers can govern the country, do you need a politician like me?" Iwasaki was not stupid and knew that it was impossible for us to defeat China on the Korean Peninsula, or even on the maritime battlefield. If we are defeated on the peninsula battlefield, both the army and the air force will be hit. In order to ensure the security of our homeland, we must use our navy at full strength. At that time, Iwasaki will be able to replace Sato and become the chief of the 'military department'. The influence of the navy will also expand rapidly, and Iwasaki will have a chance to replace me as the prime minister. Iwasaki made a fatal mistake, if we entered the war, would Shina spare the Japanese Navy? ”
Yamaga Sujing frowned and didn't express his opinion, because he was an army general.
"I can guarantee that even if our fighters enter the skies over the Korean Peninsula, China will take out all our fleets with thunderous means, not to mention that our soldiers have landed on the Korean Peninsula." Murakami's expression became extremely serious, "Iwasaki is nothing, even if there are 10,000 Iwasaki, it can't stand up to the naval fleet of the Great Japanese Empire." After we have sufficient strength, the navy will become the pillar force of the Great Japanese Empire to the whole world, and we cannot let a madman or careerist destroy the foundation of the Great Japanese Empire, let alone let the Great Japanese Empire be buried in our hands. ”
"Lady ......"
"Do you think we need to take action now?"
Yamaga Sujing didn't hesitate, immediately nodded, and said: "If Iwasaki actively promotes the war for his own selfish desires, regardless of the interests of the country and the nation, he is not a soldier of the Great Japanese Empire!" ”
Murakami nodded. "Looks like you know what to do."
"Don't worry, I'll be ready and never let your adults down." Yamaga Sujing got up and said, "I'll go back and deploy immediately, and I won't let go of any traitor." ”
Murakami Sadamasa didn't say anything, and after sending Yamaga Sujing out, he called the secretary and went to the restaurant.
The chef prepared lunch, and Ryohei Taniki had just arrived.
"Lady ......"
"Sit down, feel free." Murakami's mood was obviously much better, "I didn't expect you to come back so soon." ”
"When I got the information, I rushed back." Gu Shu Liangping took out the "top secret information" he brought back, "Although I encountered a little trouble, the problem was not serious, and it was all solved." ”
Sadamasa Murakami
Head, while the chef was serving, opened the papers.
After the chef and secretary left the restaurant, Murakami closed the document and said, "Good job, these pieces of information are of great significance."
You've done a great job, but I can't give you any awards. ”
"It's my job."
"Is there anything else to gain from that?"
Gu Shu Liangping glanced around, but did not rush to speak.
"Don't worry, it's just the two of us here." Murakami Sadamasa smiled faintly, knowing what Ryohei Tani was worried about.
"There's one more thing I'm not sure about."
"What's the matter?" Murakami Sadamasa picked up the chopsticks, "You're welcome, talk while eating." ”
Gu Shu Liangping smiled reluctantly and said, "Before coming back, the informant who provided me with information mentioned that the United States is very likely to be secretly making peace with China. ”
"What!?" Murakami immediately put down his chopsticks.
"The news has not been confirmed, but I think it is very credible."
Murakami Sadamasa sighed. "Is it reliable to provide you with information?"
"Very reliable, at least I think very reliable." Gu Shuliangping paused and said, "He works in the US State Department, although his position is not very high, but he has access to government secrets. A new president will take office, and the State Department will be reshuffled. ”
"That is, he needs money?"
Gu Shu Liangping nodded and said, "The price is not low, I spent five million dollars for this news." ”
"Money is not an issue, I will ask the secretary to transfer the money to your account." Murakami pondered for a while and said, "The key is whether this piece of information is reliable. If the United States makes a secret peace with China, then the United States is cheating us. ”
"It's not hard to confirm."
Murakami Sadamasa glanced at Ryohei Tani and motioned for Japan's number one spy to continue.
"If the United States makes a secret peace with China, it will definitely use a third party to negotiate with some ally. The United States has few options, most likely to meet secretly with diplomats from China in countries such as the Netherlands, Spain, Portugal, Greece, etc. As long as we mobilize our intelligence network and monitor the activities of our diplomats in China and the United States, we will be able to find out whether the United States is engaged in secret negotiations with China. ”
Murakami nodded and said, "I will instruct the National Intelligence Agency to launch an investigation as soon as possible, are there any other gains?" ”
"The other gains are not very important, the main thing is the change of the US government."
"You rest for a while, and I'll arrange a new land mission for you in a few days." Murakami Sadamasa picked up the chopsticks again, "Let's eat first, otherwise the dishes will be cold." ”
After lunch, Tani Ryohei left the Prime Minister's Mansion.
After going to the mall to buy daily necessities and a few sets of clothes, Gu Shu Ryohei returned home. It wasn't until night fell that he left his apartment and went to the secret junction to meet Zhang Xiaolong.
"Xiangfu has good food, right?"
"You're following me?" Gu Shu Liangping glanced at Zhang Xiaolong and Chen Liangyun.
"It's not tracking, we've been secretly protecting you since you got off the plane." Zhang Xiaolong smiled faintly and said, "What did Murakami Sadamasa talk to you about?" ”
"It's not a big deal, and the information you provided was handed over to Murakami Sadamasa according to the plan."
"Nothing else?" Chen Liangyun said as he handed a cigarette to Gu Shu Liangping.
"Nothing else, by the way......" Gu Shu Liangping paused and said, "When I went, Dongji Gu Sheng and a few 'military department' generals had just left the Prime Minister's Mansion. Murakami said that he would assign me a Shinchi mission in a few days, and I felt that something big was going to happen. ”
Chen Liangyun nodded and glanced at Zhang Xiaolong.
"When you were called to the restaurant, Yamaga Sujing had just left the Prime Minister's Mansion."
"What?" Tani Shuryohi was secretly shocked and said, "You mean, Murakami Sadamasa met with Yamaga Sujing alone?" ”
Zhang Xiaolong nodded and said, "It should be a separate meeting, Yamaga Sujing did not leave the Prime Minister's Mansion with Dongji Gusheng and the others." ”
"Something big is going to happen." Gu Shu Ryohei sighed, "Yamaga Sujing is Murakami's brother-in-law, and he is an out-and-out soldier. Murakami met with him alone, and he was definitely planning operations to attack some dissidents in the interior of the army. ”
"That's your new mission."
Looking back at Chen Liangyun, who was sitting in the back row, Gu Shu Liangping looked at Zhang Xiaolong again.
"Sadamasa Murakami has already felt threatened, and he will definitely strike first." Zhang Xiaolong smiled and said, "Now that you are a confidant of Murakami Sadamasa, he will not leave you aside." Yamaga Sujing is only a soldier, not an intelligence officer, and cannot complete the purge work alone. Murakami needs a senior intelligence officer like you. Make good use of this opportunity to get the exact news as soon as possible. ”
Gu Shu Liangping nodded and didn't say anything.
"We're here to help you in the shadows, so feel free to contact you if you need to." Chen Liangyun patted Gu Shu Liangping on the shoulder and said, "No matter what, try to get accurate information in advance." ”
"I'll do my best, nothing else, I'll go back first."
Tani Ryohei knows that there is no choice, not only him, but all the small characters in this "game" have no right to choose
