Chapter 237: The Pegasus II
"What I mean, you can be the deputy director of this social bureau, after all, the function is to be responsible for the material control work in Shanghai, and it does not conflict with the nature of the inspection team itself. If you can combine the two perfectly, it will be of great significance for the military police command to control the materials in Shanghai in the future. ”
"The navy is giving you this gift, just to get a little share of the material control, their battlefield is in the sea, and they are powerless to obtain resources on land, so they have to take the opportunity to send a personal favor."
"In view of the current situation in Shanghai, we still need the strong assistance of the Marine Corps, and when you implement a comprehensive material control in Shanghai in the future, you will pay attention to proportions according to the situation, and be a little more flexible, which will be regarded as a return." Kinoshita Eichi said.
Although the Japanese army implemented strict control over a variety of strategic materials in Shanghai, it did not reach the point of madness later. However, with the promotion of the strategy of nourishing the war by war, the situation of military supply for the Japanese army invading China has become more and more severe, and comprehensive control is imperative.
The reason why it has not been implemented at present is that the existence of the concession has hindered the implementation of this plundering method, and Japan does not intend to turn against Britain and the United States for the time being.
But it is a matter of time before the two sides enter a state of war, and the Japanese garrison in Shanghai, the most powerful is the marines, attacking the concession to maintain order, and also needs the cooperation of the navy, so Kinoshita Sakaiichi agreed to Chen Mingxiang to serve as the deputy director of the Social Bureau, and he is also a buffer liaison between the two sides.
"Jun Chen, the empire has decided to recognize the legitimacy and legitimacy of the Jinling government and establish an ambassadorial relationship with it."
"Special envoy Nobuyuki Abe will arrive in Jinling in the near future to sign official documents with President Wang Jingwei, and the plenipotentiary of Manchukuo is Zang Shiyi, President of the Senate." Gangmura Shaozo said.
Although Chen Mingxiang is regarded as a "confidant" type, Gangcun Shaozo did not say a specific date, nor did he name the matter of the delegation, which is the caution of being an intelligence officer.
There was no hope of getting information from the special high class, and Chen Mingxiang had been pondering the itinerary of the delegation on the way to the Marine Corps headquarters.
He was not discouraged, Li Shiqun said that the delegation took a special train, which must be sent from Shanghai, staring at the railway station, you can definitely get the exact departure time, and it is within these few days.
However, when it came to the cooperation of the local military stations of the cities along the railway, and the cooperation of the guerrillas of the Loyal and Righteous National Salvation Army, it was necessary for him to make arrangements in advance.
The ambush is early, it may be discovered by the Japanese army, the safety of the railway, the Japanese army attaches great importance to it, there are military patrols and inspections along the way, the ambush is late, and it is possible to miss the opportunity.
"We have received a notice from the Jinling government that Chen Gongbo will take over as mayor on the 20th, and Major General Songzhi spoke to him on the phone in advance, and he is very much in favor of your appointment as the deputy director of the Social Bureau, and it is estimated that he has already known your name."
"When the inauguration ceremony is over, you will go to his office to receive the letter of appointment, rest assured, with the Gendarmerie Command and the Marine Corps Command as your backing, he, the mayor, will not dare to do anything to you." Onoza said with a smile.
Not to mention, Chen Mingxiang's reputation in Shanghai, Chen Gongbo has indeed heard of it, who doesn't know that Huatong Trading Company and the inspection team are fat and short of oil?
"Twenty? I seem to have heard Director Li say that there is a delegation going to Jinling to attend the ceremony, and Chen Gongbo is the dignified president of the Legislative Council, so he will not attend this ceremony? Chen Mingxiang said suspiciously.
His expression must have been pretended, in fact, he was inquiring about the news of the delegation, and it is estimated that the intelligence of the navy will not be too closed, and he must have mastered some of such an important situation.
"The delegation will arrive in Jinling on the 19th by special train Tianma, and after Chen Gongbo met with the delegation, he took a plane directly to Shanghai, and he did not need to attend the signing ceremony." Ono said.
The scope is further narrowed, the 19th takes the Tianma train to Jinling, and the 20th Chen Gongbo is to take the oath of office in Shanghai, so the train is very likely to leave in the morning and arrive in the afternoon, which is also in line with the custom, and the Wang puppet government will definitely hold a welcome ceremony in the evening.
Then, Ding Mocun, the dark chess that had been ambushed a long time ago, will be able to verify this matter for himself, he doesn't know the specific time arrangement, but as a high-level dignitary of Wang's puppet government, it is certain that he will participate in the welcome ceremony.
Thanks to the painstakingly managed intelligence network and relationship network, otherwise this matter is really not easy to operate, Chen Mingxiang felt a lot more stable.
"Thank you for your cultivation, this is a small gift, please smile." Chen Mingxiang came to the office of Major General Songzhi.
He and Ono Nakasa were holding a box, one of which was a case of expensive French red wine, and the other was a case of expensive Cuban cigars, both of which were the favorites of Major General Matsuzhi.
If it is said that Major General Songzhi attaches importance to Chen Mingxiang and is promoted from a small staff member to the deputy director of the Social Bureau, this time it will definitely be a golden dollar.
But the recommendation of the navy has no value to Chen Mingxiang, and there must be a demand for interests in secret, and it is very appropriate to give some high-end luxury goods.
"Thank you very much, Chen Jun is so polite, please take a seat!" Major General Matsue looked at the gift and said with a satisfied smile.
The next thing is to make tea, Rear Admiral Songzhi seems to be very interested, and the chatter makes Chen Mingxiang have no excuse to leave, but he is a dignified rear admiral, chatting with you is to give you face, don't give face and shame!
"Chen Jun is also here, you came just in time, let's go and taste the tuna sashimi that has just been shipped to Shanghai!" At this moment, Kodama and Shifu walked in from outside, looking like they had met by chance and looked surprised.
Paralyzed, it must have been me as soon as I arrived at the Marine Corps headquarters, and someone gave you a tip-off, damn old devil, you're pretty good at pretending!
Kodama and Shifu did come in a hurry after receiving a call from the headquarters, and the purpose was also very clear, that is, to ask Chen Mingxiang to increase the supply quantity, especially tung oil and pig bristles.
As one of the most powerful navies in the world, the Japanese navy, which ranks very highly, has a very large demand for tung oil and pig bristles, and with the start of World War II, these two strategic materials have become the most sought-after goods in various countries.
However, the Shancheng government in the Kuomintang region needed to exchange these materials for loans and weapons and equipment from the British and American countries, and the blockade was very tight, and most of the goods that came to Shanghai through smuggling fell into the hands of the Huatong Trading Company.
Originally, there were smugglers and Kodama agencies to contact, but now it is no longer feasible, the security team and the action team of the secret service headquarters are desperately collecting such goods, and they will be forcibly taken away as soon as they enter the Shanghai market, and the same is true for the police station, and they are all sold to Chen Mingxiang in the end.
