Chapter 590: If the water doesn't mix, you can't catch the fish Five
"I know what you want to say, General Taiji Ota came to me last night, saying that it was the Japan Textile Association, hoping that the three textile factories of the Military Police Headquarters could reduce output, temporarily close, and cede cotton resources to Japanese textile enterprises."
"When you were still in Suzhou, the Shanghai branch of the Japan Textile Industry Association proposed to me to buy these three textile factories on the grounds that the logistics supply of the Imperial Army of Southeast Asia was tight and more resources were needed to increase productivity, but I refused."
"What I didn't expect was that these businessmen who should be killed actually kicked their noses in the face, and actually found a complaint in Tokyo, and there are several big chaebols of the empire behind them, and I can't stand the pressure anymore, I'm going to delay it for a while, I really can't think of a better solution." Major General Kinoshita Eichi said.
He thought that Chen Mingxiang had just heard the news that the Japan Textile Association was going to attack these three textile factories, so he hurriedly came to find him.
The pressure of Xingyayuan, he is a small military police major general must not be able to withstand it, according to the current development of the situation, the textile factory will have to be handed over sooner or later, and he is also having a headache for this matter!
"The matter is not as simple as His Excellency the General thought, last night, Shimada Kiyoken, director of the First Economic Bureau of the Central China Liaison Department of the Xingya Academy, and Soichiro Ueda, the president of the Shanghai Branch of the Japan Textile Association, directly found my home."
"People gave me a big ultimatum, I must stop work tomorrow, and I have to pull all the cotton yarn and cotton, and I don't give a penny, it will be regarded as supporting the empire!" Chen Mingxiang said anxiously.
Kinoshita Eichi was stunned for a moment, feeling that he, the general, and the face of the entire military police headquarters, had been slapped hard by these Japanese businessmen.
What else is he talking about delaying time, dragging your uncle, people are going to come to the door to grab things!
Bang, a fine tea cup from Japan was shattered, which shows how angry Kinoshita Eichi is at the moment, or he is ashamed and angry, and he was slapped in the face!
The four section chiefs who were waiting for the news outside the door hurriedly ran in, and His Excellency the general rarely had such a time, which proved that he was angry.
"The reason why I am reluctant to hand over the textile factory is not only for the welfare of Huatong Trading Company, as a soldier of the empire, I must always focus on the overall situation, and I still have this awareness!"
"The General Headquarters of the Dispatch Army has a clear requirement for the local gendarmerie to complete the issued strategic material collection targets, and this requirement has been quantified, and the three textile factories of the Huatong Trading Company are the only way for the military police command to complete its tasks."
"In addition, the supply of cotton fabrics for the logistics of the imperial army in Southeast Asia is tight, and it cannot affect the overall military material support of the imperial army.
"So, General Taiji Ota came to me, I just said to think about it, and I will deal with this matter at the right time, the emperor's envoy is about to come to Shanghai, I didn't expect this group of people to go so far as to go to Chen Jun's house!"
"Okay, it seems that no one takes our gendarmerie headquarters seriously, I, a dignified imperial major general, probably no one cares about it, robbing the gendarmerie headquarters of materials, this is really a strange news, since the establishment of the gendarmerie system, I have not heard of such a thing!" Kinoshita Eichi gritted his teeth and said.
After the start of the war of aggression against China, the gendarmerie became a department for safeguarding the interests of the garrison, and it had to manage not only the common people in the occupied areas, but also the Japanese.
Although the gendarmerie is under the management of the local army, it actually has little ability to restrain it, and the newly appointed Hideki Tojo is the operator of the "carried forward" gendarme, so his status is also rising.
It was unheard of for a businessman to use the materials of the gendarmerie headquarters without permission, but the four section chiefs knew that the calmer Kinoshita Eichi was, the higher the anger in his heart.
"Your Excellency, several officers of the Marine Corps Command, came to my house for dinner last night, and when they heard this, they were very angry and decided to go to the factory the morning after tomorrow to protect them in real time."
"I originally refused, but they said that this was a major matter involving the interests of the military, not for personal friendship, and I didn't say anything else." Chen Mingxiang said.
This matter must be explained clearly so that the two sides can coordinate with each other, and this is not a battlefield, and it is impossible for the army and navy to fight side by side, so it is certainly necessary to divide the tasks.
In normal times, this kind of cooperation will certainly not work, and it is good if the two sides do not fight when they encounter each other, but at the moment, in order to safeguard the interests of both sides, it is also in line with reality to make a little flexibility, and the gendarmerie command also needs someone to share the pressure.
"Do you hear that? Our army gendarmes have been laughed at by other marines, who think that we are weak and incompetent, and they are going to take action to defend the interests of the army! ”
"Tsukamoto-kun, you can operate this matter, don't let the navy look down on our army gendarmerie, those who dare to rob materials will be punished severely, and all of them will be arrested in the prison of the gendarmerie headquarters!" Kinoshita Eichi said sharply.
"Hello!" The four gendarmerie officers hurriedly replied.
They all know that the officers of the Marine Corps Command must have thought that the Military Police Command in Shanghai was thin, so they made such a decision, which is equivalent to a second slap in the face of the Military Police Command!
The gendarmes, who have always been rampant, have never been so angry, and the four section chiefs have made up their minds that they must find this field!
"Your Excellency, please calm your anger, I think that the more this time, the more you can't make a big move, since the other party dares to do this, he must have his own certainty."
"If the Gendarmerie Command makes a big deal and is investigated by the high-level of the Xingya Academy, it will be very unfavorable to you and you, and it is better to be cautious if your arms can't twist your thighs."
"I have already considered a solution, and now I will speak out and let everyone counsel, not only to protect the income of the gendarmerie command from loss, but also to silence that group of people, in the long run, retreat is the best strategy." Chen Mingxiang said.
He suddenly noticed that Kinoshita Eichi's face changed slightly, and suddenly it occurred to him that this old devil was notoriously difficult to mess with, his mood was invisible, and his methods were very insidious.
Listening to what Qingqi Zhongsa said, even the generals of the Shadow Showa Thirteenth Army Headquarters had a bit of a headache when they mentioned him, such a character, the means could never be put on the surface.
Kinoshita Eichi is distressed that the dividends have been lost, and it is also true that he is angry, but it is not his style of doing things, if he wants to borrow a knife to kill people, it will be a big mistake.
