Chapter 362: Blowing the Wind
Chen Mingxiang is best at burning cold stoves, and although Ding Mocun has not been given any real power until now, he still allocates a monthly fund to ensure that his social activities are not affected.
What followed was the high-level movement of Wang's puppet government, especially if there was any major event, he would get the news as soon as possible, Gangcun Shaozo had been the head of the special high section since the Japanese army captured Shanghai, if there were no resources in hand, was it possible?
Although Chen Mingxiang's scope of activities is mainly in Shanghai, the scope of his mission is the entire territory of Wang's puppet government, including Jiangcheng.
"Chen Jun, although the imperial army occupies most of the Shanghai market, the current situation in the concession is not optimistic, the military and central commanders of the Shancheng government, as well as the underground party, are hiding in this overseas residence of Britain, the United States and France, constantly creating trouble for the empire."
"In particular, those military commanders were very active during this time, assassinating many officers and soldiers of the Imperial Army, including a rear admiral and a navy admiral, and also causing some casualties among the Imperial people."
"The administrations of the Public Concession and the French Concession, for the sake of their so-called face, strongly resisted the entry of imperial troops into the concession and the arrest of murderers and saboteurs."
"The question is, due to the international situation, the empire can't take too tough measures for the time being, what do you think about this matter?" Katsuo Okaki asked.
When Akagi Ki heard these words, he just smiled slightly, and then he picked up the teacup and drank the tea, and Kodama and Shifu also smiled, as if they understood something.
"Your Excellency, in fact, what we really need to deal with is the Public Concession, the French government behind the French Concession, a member of the Axis organization, will not obstruct our actions."
"The public concessions of Britain and the United States, without the support of the governments of the two countries, are just bluffs, and it is the general trend for the empire to control the concessions."
"The great strategy of the empire is not something that a small character like mine can guess at will, but as long as the imperial army does not enter the concession substantively, and Britain and the United States do not count more private actions, there are many ways to achieve the goal." Chen Mingxiang said calmly.
This is a test question given to himself by Katsunan Okaki, if he does well in the exam, he will be able to be reused in the Concession Police Department in the future and obtain a position of real power, if he does not pass the exam, it will be another matter.
As long as Japan did not declare war on Britain and the United States, and the three countries officially tore their faces, the various intelligence agencies of the Japanese army stationed in Shanghai would not be able to take action against the public concession.
However, the United States has not yet imposed an embargo on Japan, and the Japanese government does not want to provoke the United States, and the board of directors of the Ministry of Industry and Bureau of the Public Concession still has the ability to obstruct the Japanese troops stationed in Shanghai.
"Since Chen Jun has an idea, let's talk about it and let's discuss it." Katsuo Oka said with a smile.
"First, since the military commanders carried out assassination operations against the imperial army, the Imperial Consulate General in Shanghai should put pressure on the concession administration to reduce their ability to intervene, and take control of the police department in name only, and must assist the imperial army in arresting the murderers."
"Second, the imperial members of the police force will increase their infiltration into the patrol rooms under their subordinates, elevate those high-ranking officials in Britain and the United States, actually grasp the power of arrest, openly arrest military commanders, and suppress their space for activities."
"Third, we should concentrate the elite of the Japanese Army Ministry's special service organs stationed in Shanghai, the special high division of the military police stationed in Shanghai, the intelligence department of the Marine Corps Headquarters, and the secret service headquarters, and form an intelligence network for the concession and implement seamless coverage."
"With Oka Qijun and Chief Akagi as the chief responsible persons, the supreme command structure of the concession will be formed, the actions of various departments will be coordinated, and the special high school will be ordered to strengthen the protection of important figures, so as not to give the military commanders another opportunity to take advantage of it."
"We now have the home advantage, and we have a good foundation laid by Chief Akagi, as long as we have enough patience, I think it will not be too difficult to clear the latent forces in the concession." Chen Mingxiang said.
This is not his own originality, nor is he deliberately creating problems for his comrades, but he has refined and summed up the means adopted by the Japanese army in all aspects at the present stage.
Oka Qi Katsuo and Akagi are not easy to fool, and if they don't come up with something real, they can't pass the test at all, so Chen Mingxiang didn't hesitate at all, he needed the position of the police department as a support.
The three high-ranking officials present nodded frequently, and felt much better about Chen Mingxiang, this did not come from his innovation, but because he had strong insight and was extremely shrewd, especially the action of proposing that the two high-ranking officials of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs take control of the concession, which happened to touch the plan hidden in the hearts of the two.
"It seems that Your Excellency Akagi and Director Okaki have a very good impression of you, and your entry into the Concession Police Department has become a foregone conclusion, otherwise they would not have personally sent you out of the gate." Kodama and Shifu said with a smile.
"What does the chief mean, I've passed the exam tonight?" Chen Mingxiang also knew that these things could not be hidden from the eyes of this old devil.
"You are not a professional agent, you can sort out so much content, your performance is not only passing, it is simply excellent, Chen Jun, I must congratulate you, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has long wanted to reflect its own value, and this plan of yours happens to be what they need the most." Kodama and Shifu said.
Foreign Minister Yoyo Matsuoka and Prime Minister Fumihiro Konoe are fighting to the death for the negotiations between Japan and the United States, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has always sought to expand its influence, and even the army and navy are not buying it.
However, the current Ministry of Foreign Affairs supports the navy's strategy of advancing southward, and it can be said that the two sides have the same opinion, so Kodama and Shifu can go to the banquet, and any seemingly simple move has a deep meaning behind it.
"Clear-headed and quick-witted, Chen Mingxiang is indeed a very good young man, Your Excellency's vision is very good, find a suitable opportunity, let him go to the Police Department to serve as your assistant!" Katsuo Okaki waited until the guests left, and then said to Akagi Ki Kiyuki.
"Don't worry, I'm going to observe for a few more days, Chen Mingxiang is not a professional agent after all, I want to test his secrecy, and his network is too complicated, how about testing his loyalty."
"The position of assistant is not suitable, and now he is wearing many hats, especially the heavy responsibility of smuggling strategic materials for the imperial army, and he can be attached to the deputy director of the office to contact the military and police departments in Shanghai for us, and I will sort out this plan tonight, and when all parties meet tomorrow, this matter will be finalized." Akagi said.
In addition to the director and deputy director, there is also a deputy director of the police department of the Ministry of Industry, which is to assist the director and deputy director in their work, or to be designated to be in charge of a certain work.
There are a number of assistant commissioners in the police force, one Japanese and one Chinese, and as for this quota, it is natural to kick out the original Chinese deputy commissioner, and with Akagi's own ability, it is easy to do this.
