Chapter 711: Left behind
At the beginning of the 29th year of the Republic of China, Okamura Ninji was transferred back to China as a military staff officer because of his opposition to the strategy of the Minister of War Itagaki Seishiro to lure the Yamashiro government to surrender, and as a result, there was a conflict with the general direction of the military department at that time.
It was not until the 30th year of the Republic of China that he was appointed by the Japanese emperor to be the commander of the North China Front Army and promoted to the rank of army general.
Okamura Ninji is not to see the same military rank as Shunroku Hata, and together with Tetsuyama Nagata and Toshiro Kohata, he is known as the three feathers of the army, and he has long been associated with Emperor Hirohito, but in terms of status and relationship in the military, it is really much worse than Shunroku Hata.
Shunroku Hata was born in a samurai family at the peak of Japan, and his brother Eitaro Hata was also an army general and the commander of the Kwantung Army, but in the nineteenth year of the Republic of China, he fell ill and died in Mukden.
And Okamura Ninji is just from a declining samurai family, if it is really a military boss, Shunroku Hata, who once served as the Minister of War and the chief military attache of the Emperor's Chamberlain, turned his face, and he had to retreat.
Even the commander of the 13th Army Headquarters, Shigeru Sawada, to be honest, can't be provoked, he is the confidant of Prince Zaihito Miyaji, the biggest behind-the-scenes boss in the army.
"Thank you, Your Excellency, General, for solving my doubts, these words are really hard to find, I know what to do, and I will never dare to forget your mention, the material exchange between Huatong Trading Company and the Kwantung Army, you will definitely have a harvest." Chen Mingxiang said.
You don't admit it, so let me carry the black cauldron myself!
Chen Mingxiang understood the core element of this task, that is, what can be done or not said!
For Matsui Taikuro's care, he must be rewarded heavily, don't look at these few words, it is a person with considerable qualifications and an extremely good understanding of the Japanese army system can say it, the earlier 100,000 US dollars is far from enough to return.
"You are doing things for the empire, and you are also doing things for the military department, I remind you that you should concentrate on doing this work well first, and talk about other things later." Matsui said with a smile.
He definitely doesn't refuse the benefits of white gain, people are willing to give it, and it doesn't involve any military secrets, why should such money be pushed out, he has no enmity with dollars and gold.
Since such a major matter was involved, Kimura, an adviser to the China Reserve Bank, certainly did not dare to slack off, and quickly approved the foreign exchange and gold expenditure.
At noon, after having dinner at the restaurant with the members of the Department of Police, as soon as Chen Mingxiang went to work in the afternoon, he went to the vault of the Central Reserve Bank and transported 50 kilograms of gold and $1 million to his residence in Jinling, and then returned to the office of the director of the Department of Police.
Both things were successfully completed, he didn't have the heart to continue to stay in Jinling, he planned to go home and pack up and hurry to the outside of the gate, and start early to benefit earlier.
"I still have to deal with the important affairs assigned by the Mei organ, and I need to go to the customs outside the customs for about a week to return to Shanghai, and after I leave, the work of the department will be handed over to you."
"Considering that I am based in Shanghai, and I have too many part-time jobs, and it is very troublesome to take the train back and forth from Jinling to Shanghai, I plan to set up a secretarial office in Shanghai, which is responsible for the liaison with the department, which is located in the foreign affairs office of the Shanghai Special Municipal Government."
"Before this office was established, if the police secretary encountered major affairs, you could directly call the foreign affairs office of the municipal government, and I would arrange for someone to answer it." Chen Mingxiang said.
Originally, he didn't plan to deal with the bad things on the side of the police secretary, but he didn't think it was appropriate to think about it, this is the highest police leadership body of the Wang puppet government, if he easily gave up his power, wouldn't it be a waste of resources? People give it for free, why don't you make good use of it?
Therefore, before leaving, Chen Mingxiang convened a meeting of the deputy section chief and above of the police secretary, and directly announced his decision, and it was not possible to oppose it, and the police secretary did not dare to challenge his strength head-on.
"Rest assured, Director, we will report the important work of the Police Department in a timely manner, conscientiously implement your decision, and arrange a special person to be responsible for the docking with the Foreign Affairs Office of the Shanghai Special Municipal Government." Du Shengjian said.
"The Secretariat of the Ministry of Finance called and said that Minister Zhou had approved a special fund of 100,000 yuan for the director of the Department of Police, and the same amount would be allocated every month in the future, and the specific arrangements would be decided by you." Yan Minglun said with a smile.
Sun Shengmin felt bitter, didn't he say that Chen Mingxiang didn't care about the police secretary and wouldn't interfere in the handling of specific affairs?
Once this secretary's office is established, Chen Mingxiang will be able to make timely decisions on the work arrangements of the police department and strengthen his ties with the department, which is tantamount to invisibly weakening his power as the executive deputy director.
There is also intrigue within the police department, and the relationship is very complicated, and he and the other two deputy directors were originally Chen Qun's people, and they are also competing for the post of director.
It's just that his background is a little stronger, and he became the executive deputy director in advance, and he is also the first choice for the director, Du Shengjian and Yan Minglun are very unconvinced.
Chen Mingxiang is a strong director of the department, this is the arrangement of the Supreme Military Advisory Group, Chen Qun as the Minister of the Interior can only obey orders, Sun Shengmin also understands that he can't afford to provoke the new director.
"Even the two of them said together, the three of you have been following me for all these years, you don't understand the least rules, and you don't follow the rules of the game, no wonder people want to cut your power, you deserve it!"
"People are indeed young, but the director is an upright position, your leader, people come to work in the department, what do you do? I've been looking for someone to watch you a long time ago, and one by one you don't know how to visit or report work, and look down on Chen Mingxiang? ”
"I don't want to think about it, he can become a celebrity of the military police headquarters in Shanghai, and be appreciated by Lieutenant General Matsui, and be directly promoted from the deputy director of the Shanghai Social Bureau to the director of police, can he be a simple character?"
"Tell you, this young man's methods of doing things are very spicy, otherwise how could he be regarded as a confidant by Chen Gongbo, Zhou Gaohai also admires him very much, if anyone underestimates him, sooner or later he will suffer a big loss." Chen Qun said with a sneer in the office.
On the one hand, he can't hold up, don't look at Chen Mingxiang's superiors, if people don't buy it, he has no tricks at all, and Lieutenant General Mei and Lieutenant General Matsui can decide the fate of all officials in the Jinling government.
On the other hand, there is nothing wrong with what Chen Mingxiang did in this matter, but his people are foreign-looking, rules are rules, and they can't be broken casually, and the deputy actually dares to despise the main position, it's a joke!
Sun Shengmin's mind he also knew, it was nothing more than that he didn't become the boss and held back the fire in his heart, plus he thought he was old, so he was not so respectful to Chen Mingxiang, stupid pig, don't you look at what kind of person this is?
