Chapter 379: It's Continued
The news of Akagi's assassination was a hurricane that swept through the entire military and political circles in Shanghai, and in the hearts of most people who did not know the truth, he was not a special deputy director of the police department, but it was definitely bad news for the general headquarters of the dispatch army.
"I told you in advance that we would send more people to protect the safety of important people in Shanghai, but how did you carry out this order? His Excellency Akagi was a nobleman of the Great Japanese Empire, do you know what this means? ”
"The General Staff Headquarters in Tokyo was greatly outraged by this, and severely rebuked the commander-in-chief of the dispatch army, General Shunroku Hata, and as the commander of the military police, I was not only reprimanded by the General Headquarters, but also received a message of accountability from His Excellency the Minister of War, and the entire army intelligence system in Shanghai was humiliated because of this incident!" Kinoshita Eichi gasped, he was not tired of talking, but tired of slapping.
Lin Shaozuo and Nanzao Yunzi's faces were swollen like a pig's head at the moment, and the corners of their mouths and noses were bleeding, but despite this, they stood up straight.
The Japanese army has always had this tradition, and when a subordinate makes a mistake, the superior will crack and slap him, and even grew up in such an environment since he joined the army.
This matter was indeed ordered by Kinoshita Sakae City a long time ago, and as a member of Akagi's own identity, he is also eligible to receive key protection, and he can't run away from a charge of dereliction of duty.
"Your Excellency General, I'm really sorry, it was Nanzao Yunzi who was derelict in his duties, and his subordinates committed suicide by cutting their stomachs to wash away this shame with blood!" Nanzao Yunzi said in an indifferent tone.
She knew very well in her heart that because Akagi Qinyuki, the imperial baron, was assassinated, she could only be a young man in this life, and no matter how great the credit was, she couldn't erase this mistake on her resume.
"Fool, run away when you encounter something, this is a cowardly act, I want you to cheer me up, dig up the first district of Shanghai, and comfort the heroic soul of His Excellency Akagi, the Japanese Empire will not allow such a provocation!"
"From now on, don't worry about other trivial things in your special high class, put all your energy into this work, give you half a year, if you can't complete the task at the end of the year, and can't be ashamed of the empire, then cut yourself!" Kinoshita Eichi said coldly.
Escaped death, it can be said that the two of them had been mentally prepared for this before entering Kinoshita Sakae's office, but they didn't expect to get such a result.
"Mr. Chen, since it is your foreign affairs office that holds the listing ceremony, I must attend on time, yesterday Akagi was killed, but the Japanese blamed the police department for poor protection, they are simply robber logic!"
"Akagi himself is the special deputy commissioner of the police department, and he goes out without security personnel, and the military commander is so rampant, isn't this looking for death?" General Director Riddle said.
"There is no way, now Japan has an absolute advantage in Shanghai, although it does not dare to tear its face and drive the army into the concession, but if you make some small moves in private, Your Excellency will also be very uncomfortable."
"Before I came this time, Director Katsuo Okaki asked me to convey a request, the funeral of Akagi Kinyuki must be solemn, Your Excellency, you don't have to worry too much about a dead person." Chen Mingxiang said.
The funeral of Akagi Qinzhi simply caused a sensation in Shanghai, a large number of people ran to the concession to watch the excitement, patrols from many countries opened the way in front, and the car carrying Akagi's coffin slowly moved forward, surrounded by the Japanese military police and the police protection of the Huxi Police Department, the specifications were very high.
From Jing'an Temple to Hongkou, a Japanese photographer will shoot the film, and then a farewell ceremony will be held before being loaded onto a ship and transported back to Japan for burial.
"Commissioner Chen, I heard that you will soon be working part-time in the Police Department of the Ministry of Industry of the Concession?" Pan Tie from the Huxi Special Police Headquarters asked.
"Your information is well-informed, it's hard to say now, when the chief of Akagi was alive, he had such a proposal, but he suffered misfortune, and it is still unknown whether he can work part-time."
"Besides, without his support, it is not interesting to have a proper position in this police department, and I have enough part-time jobs." Chen Mingxiang said.
Akagi's residence has a mourning hall, with a three-story altar in the center, a black and white photo of the deceased placed above the middle, lotus lanterns, flower baskets, flowers, fruits, etc. on both sides, and a coffin in the forefront, where a Japanese monk recites sutras.
There are gendarmes and marines outside, and those who enter the residence are subject to strict checks, and there will be a lot of big names present at tonight's farewell ceremony.
A large number of Japanese generals and officers attended the ceremony, including Vice Admiral Shigeru Sawada, commander of the 13th Army, Vice Admiral Nomura, commander of the Third Fleet, Rear Admiral Yoshiaki Kagesa of the Ume Agency, Major General Masami Maeda of the Ministry of Army's Special Service in Shanghai, Lieutenant General Shizue Tsuda of the Central China Liaison Department of the Koya Academy, Major General Eiichi Kinoshita of the Military Police Headquarters, and Rear Admiral Matsuue of the Marine Corps Headquarters.
Li Shiqun of the Secret Service Headquarters, Lu Ying, Chief of the Municipal Police Department, Haruki Nakasa of the Mei Agency, Ono Nakasa, Director of the Intelligence Division of the Marine Corps Headquarters, and Kodama and Shifu of the Kodama Agency were also indispensable, but the two chief officers of the Special High School Division were not present, probably for fear of irritating the senior generals present.
The Consul General and Deputy Consul General of the Consulate General of Japan in Shanghai, including Katsuo Okaki and others, were naturally in charge of the funeral, and Akagi was a high-ranking police officer at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Their faces were very ugly, and although the funeral was extremely pompous, the problem was that Akagi was dead, and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs' power in the concession had weakened by at least half.
The "incense ceremony" given by Chen Mingxiang was the white money for the Chinese funeral, which was 3,000 US dollars, the highest amount in this funeral, which made the officials of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs very pleased, and they wanted to promote him to the police department as an assistant director in vain.
"Chen Jun, although Akagi-kun suffered misfortune, he was very appreciative of you during his lifetime, and after the funeral, you will serve as the deputy secretary general of the joint command organization to assist me in my work, and enter the police department as the deputy commissioner, temporarily responsible for the affairs I designated." Katsuo Okaki came over and said.
Akagi admires Chen Mingxiang for several reasons, first of all, he does a good job in details, his Japanese level is very high, and he is a college student in the Department of Foreign Languages of Fudan University, good at dealing with people, such subordinates are the favorite as leaders.
Second, he belongs to the few Chinese people in Shanghai who can be valued by both the Japanese Military Police Command in Shanghai and the Marine Corps Command in Shanghai, and this is a precious resource, and if the Ministry of Foreign Affairs wants to enhance its influence in Shanghai, it must maintain good relations with the military, and Chen Mingxiang is a very suitable agent.
In addition, Chen Mingxiang is now the deputy director of the Social Affairs Bureau of the municipal government and the commissioner of the Foreign Affairs Office, which is also a channel that the Ministry of Foreign Affairs needs, and the Wang puppet government is controlled by the army, and it is difficult for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to meddle in major affairs, so it needs to open the door from the Shanghai municipal government first.
