Chapter 1214: Secret Deliberation
Hearing Dr. Shimada's words, Ning Zhiheng was overjoyed in his heart, there is reincarnation in the way of heaven, and a person like Nojima Ichiro died like this, which can be regarded as cheapening him.
But Ning Zhiheng still showed sadness on his face, shook his head as if he was quite sorry, and didn't say more.
Junpei Uehara inquired about the situation of the others again, and went to the ward to check the situation one by one, and at this time, some people had come to their senses after rescue.
Potassium cyanide poisoning, as long as you can wake up, it is basically a life.
It wasn't until late at night that Junpei Uehara and Ning Zhiheng finished their inspection, left the hospital, and rushed all the way back to their residence.
In the car, the two of them talked about what happened today, and Junpei Uehara said: "Today was a good opportunity, I have talked about it with Vice Minister Shimizu, but it has been complicated, such a thing has happened, find a chance for you to make an appointment with Vice Minister Shimizu again, some things still have to be discussed in person." ”
It seems that the contact between Junpei Uehara and Hidetoshi Shimizu is good today, and it is undoubtedly very beneficial for Junpei Uehara to have some more allies in the House of Nobles.
"Understood, I'll contact Vice Minister Shimizu as soon as possible, but this time, it's rude that something like this happened at the welcome banquet." Ning Zhiheng nodded in agreement.
Junpei Uehara also felt embarrassed, frowned, and scolded fiercely: "These bastards are really bad for me." ”
I don't know if the bastard in his mouth refers to Zhan Yuanliang who poisoned him, or those wastes in the consulate, or those subordinates of Imai Yushi, maybe everything.
Ning Zhiheng comforted: "Although something went wrong this time, fortunately, you and several generals, as well as the three parliamentarians, are all safe and sound, and Vice Minister Shimizu will not really care, except for Keisuke Ueno, the others are not any characters, it does not hinder the overall situation, as long as the operation is good, the impact can be suppressed, you don't have to worry too much." ”
Junpei Uehara sighed softly: "I hope so, this matter must have been done by Chongqing agents, I didn't expect these people to really have the means, as early as ten years ago, they buried chess pieces in the consulate, and at a critical moment, they stabbed this knife, it seems that there are still loopholes in our control of Nanjing City, it's really careless." ”
The two talked for a long time, and suddenly, Junpei Uehara said: "Zhiren, are you hiding something from me during this time?" ”
This thoughtless sentence made Ning Zhiheng chuckle in his heart, he looked at Uehara Junping in surprise, he didn't know why he said this, and asked softly: "Uncle, ......what do you mean?"
"I received a letter from home a few days ago, and my family said that you bought some shops and properties for them, what is going on?"
It turned out to be this matter, Ning Zhiheng heard this, his tense nerves relaxed, and he said with a smile: "I thought it was something, the business of the club has been good recently, this is just a little bit of my mind, you don't have to care!" ”
But Junpei Uehara shook his head and sighed: "I know you have good intentions, but it's too ostentatious, now the domestic environment is not good, the economy is declining, people's livelihood is difficult, and many people can't eat enough. ”
Ning Zhiheng slapped his forehead, oops, and suddenly said urgently: "It's careless, I can't think about it!" ”
Seeing Ning Zhiheng's remorse, Junpei Uehara smiled, waved his hand and comforted: "Okay, the delivery has already been delivered, you don't have to take it to heart, I will let them take action as soon as possible, but not as an example, you know, this is an extraordinary time, don't make trouble in vain!" ”
"Yes, I'll be careful next time!"
Uehara Junpei was even more satisfied when he heard this, and secretly rejoiced, he had met this nephew because of his love for talent, and over the years, the two of them have supported each other, and the relationship has become closer and closer, and they have become more and more harmonious, and now they are only afraid that they are closer than their nephews.
However, Junpei Uehara is still a little worried, although the business of Fujiwara Club is good, but the expenditure has always been amazing, during this period many times to his family to gift the industry, is there something wrong, so he still took the initiative to ask: "Zhiren, you tell me the truth, are you in trouble in business?" What do I need to do? ”
Ning Zhiheng was stunned for a moment, he didn't have any problems in this regard, but during this period of time, the counterfeit banknote business was booming, and the profits were amazing, so his hands and feet were a little bigger, so he sent someone to send more to Uehara Junpei's family, which made Uehara Junpei misunderstand.
"You're so careful, the business of the club has been very good, with your support, the protection of the Fujiwara family, who dares to embarrass me!" Ning Zhiheng said with a smile.
However, he rolled his eyes, changed the topic, and then asked: "By the way, uncle, there is something I want to ask, at today's banquet, how do I feel that General Kagezo seems to be a little unhappy, several generals attending the meeting are a little lukewarm to him, I remember that their relationship was still good before, it seems that your attitude is also ......."
Hearing Ning Zhiheng's inquiry, Junpei Uehara couldn't help but smile, nodded and said: "Your observation is indeed very good, Yingzuo's life is indeed not easy during this time, and the whole army is quite dissatisfied with him." ”
Ning Zhiheng suddenly became interested, and hurriedly asked, "What is the specific reason?" ”
Junpei Uehara glanced at his nephew and felt that he still had to say it thoroughly, so that he could understand the current situation and deal with the relationship with Yuki Kagesa.
"This is because he has committed public anger, and he is a little carried away!" Junpei Uehara said in a deep voice.
"Guilty of public wrath? On a cloud? Ning Zhiheng had already guessed a rough idea from just these two words, Hiroki Kagesa was in big trouble.
Next, Junpei Uehara introduced the situation to Ning Zhiheng in detail, it turned out to be similar to Ning Zhiheng's guess, since Hiroki Kagesa supported the puppet government of Nanjing to come to power, as the behind-the-scenes boss of the Nanjing government, he is nominally the "top military adviser" of the Nanjing government, but in fact, Wang Reclamation has no right to speak, and the real decision-making power is in the hands of Hiroki Kagesa.
Hiroki Kagesa controlled the operation of the entire Nanjing government, and every decree could only be issued with his consent, and for this reason, some people even called him the "Emperor Taishang" of the Nanjing puppet government.
It is precisely because of this that his shadow agency has also expanded rapidly, and he can extend his hand to various places under the jurisdiction of the Nanjing puppet government, Jiangsu, Huaihai, Anhui, and even Jiangsu and Zhejiang.
But in this process, some of Kagesa Hiroki's practices made the Japanese military very dissatisfied, first of all, he was too supportive of the Nanjing puppet government, of course, as the emperor of the Nanjing puppet government, expanding the power of the Nanjing puppet government is to expand his own strength, which is also understandable.
At the beginning of its establishment, the Nanjing government was just a shell government, without a single soldier, under the unremitting efforts of Kinsa Yuki, in just two years, the military was rectified, the military was annexed to the new government, the puppet army and hooligan bandits were incorporated from all over the country, and the Kuomintang rebels who surrendered were recruited, so as to grow, and the current Nanjing government has more than 500,000 appeasement troops, and this number is still expanding.
Such a huge military force, of course, requires a lot of financial support, and in order to maintain military spending, Hiroki Kagesa even resisted the policy of the Japanese military top brass to feed the war many times, and the conflict of interests in the middle of this led to more and more dissatisfaction with him from the top brass.
Moreover, he spent so much money, replenished a large amount of munitions, and the appeasement army that was formed was not angry, these troops were greedy for life and afraid of death, except for the large number of people, there was basically nothing that could be handled, and the combat effectiveness was almost zero, and every time he fought with the Chinese army, he was about to collapse at the touch of a button, lost his armor and unloaded his armor, and sent a large number of weapons and equipment to the Chinese army in vain, and supplied materials, which was quite the style of a transport brigade.
In addition, there is another important reason, that is, the establishment of the Nanjing puppet government is far from achieving the effect that the Japanese want, not only did it not play any exemplary and leading role, but also attracted the unanimous condemnation of all forces in China, especially the Japanese want to negotiate peace with the Chongqing government, and the Nanjing puppet government has become an insurmountable obstacle, which to a certain extent, has promoted the formation of China's anti-Japanese front.
Therefore, the Japanese side has now changed its stance on the Nanjing puppet government, and Hiroki Kagesa, as the representative of the Nanjing puppet government, has since been excluded and suppressed by all sides.
These pressures come from other factions such as Yoichi Miura, and even his own faction, that is, the department of Chief of Staff Sakagaki, and there are also people who are secretly hindering, so Kagesa Yuki is having a hard time now.
After listening to all this, Ning Zhiheng understood in his heart, and then asked, "What about your attitude?" ”
Junpei Uehara smiled slightly, and said: "Naturally, I am also on the side of the majority, and besides, the shadow agency is now too long, and it already has a lot of authority to conflict with the intelligence department of our military department, of course I have to show my attitude, so you don't get too close to him in the future." ”
It turns out that this is the case, there are only eternal interests, no eternal friends, in the past, Junpei Uehara and Yuki Kagesa got along well, and that was because what Yuki Kagesa did, could not threaten his interests, and now that there is a conflict of interest, it is naturally not so easy to speak.
It's really the wall that everyone is pushing, it seems that Hiroki Kagesa's good days are over, Ning Zhiheng nodded and said, "It turns out that my uncle also means this, so it's easy to say." ”
"What, what do you think?" Junpei Uehara was stunned for a moment and asked suspiciously.
Ning Zhiheng smiled and said, "Actually, I have already had a conflict with Yuki Kagesa, but I am afraid that he is too popular now, and I don't want to tear my face!" ”
"Oh?"
So Ning Zhiheng recounted what happened in Shanghai before, and finally said: "This Ying Zuo, he took the benefits I gave him, but he was jealous of my business, colluded with the Third Fleet, and directly started a smuggling business in my territory, if it wasn't for Zhou Fushan to give me a tip-off, I would have been in the dark!" Later, I killed the people who were directly involved and beat Li Zhiqun, and he showed up, and I didn't want to do anything wrong, so I took a step back, but after that, I stopped his benefit fee, and I don't know, what is he thinking now? ”
After listening to the whole story, Junpei Uehara knew that his nephew had already had a conflict with Yuki Kagesa and cut off contact, so he couldn't help but be furious, and scolded: "This bastard, doing things so shamelessly, I saved him some face in vain, you should have told me earlier, otherwise, at the last military meeting, I would have attacked him, and I would never let him get out so easily." ”
The more Junpei Uehara thought about it, the more angry he became, everyone knew their relationship with Fujiwara Tomohito, and Hiroki Kagesa actually went to Shanghai to rob Fujiwara Club's business, which shows that he didn't take himself seriously at all, which is simply unbearable!
Seeing this, Ning Zhiheng hurriedly persuaded him: "I was also afraid that there would be a real conflict, and you and Chief Sakagaki would not get along, so I took a step back." ”
"I see!"
Junpei Uehara held back his anger and said in a deep voice: "It seems that it's time to deal with him, it just so happens that this southward expansion plan is implemented ahead of schedule, after the war, Central China needs to transfer a large number of troops, I will unite all parties to add fuel to the fire, send him to Southeast Asia, so as not to stay here as an eyesore!" ”
Ning Zhiheng was secretly happy when he heard this, if Hiroki Kagesa left, the Nanjing puppet government would lose its support, the Kagesa Agency, the largest Japanese intelligence agency in Central China, would suffer a major blow, and Li Zhiqun on the 76th would also lose his position as a result, and the threat to the Kuomintang intelligence department would be greatly reduced.
At the moment, Ning Zhiheng and Junpei Uehara discussed it properly and decided to mobilize their own connections and resources to prepare to attack Yuki Kagesa.
