Preparing the venue of the meeting and being qualified to participate in the meeting, but it does not mean that he knows the content of the meeting, this is Chen Mingxiang's deliberate use of vague words to mislead Matsuda Daisa's habitual thinking, hoping to get some valuable information from his mouth.

This devil is the chief of intelligence of the 13th Army Command, and he is under the direct leadership of the chief of staff.

"The Imperial Council convened by His Majesty the Emperor has determined the strategic direction of the Imperial Army, and Chen Jun must have heard that the southward expansion strategy proposed by the Navy was finally adopted by the Military Department."

"First the Zhang Gufeng incident, and then the Nomenkan incident, the army failed to achieve results in two attempts, but suffered heavy losses, which led to the high-level tilting towards the navy's strategy, which only needs to be approved by the Imperial Council to begin to be implemented."

"If you want to implement this strategy, the navy and army must have a large number of troops to participate in the war, so they also need countless military supplies, and Shanghai and Central China will help the imperial army to purchase these necessities, and it is inevitable that you will participate." Matsuda said.

He did not doubt Chen Mingxiang's words at all, and the content of tonight's meeting really could not be concealed from this guy, and in the eyes of the Japanese army stationed in Shanghai, Chen Mingxiang would be one of the main players in the preparation of materials this time.

"If the amount of supplies needed is too large and the time is too tight, I am afraid that it will delay the military operations of the imperial army, so I have to plan well in advance." Chen Mingxiang said.

Matsuda Daisa's remarks verified that the information given by the navy was accurate, and Japan was indeed going to enter Southeast Asia, which would greatly reduce the pressure on the Yamashiro government on the frontal battlefield.

"The Imperial Council on the specific operation has not been held, negotiations with the American side are also underway, the base camp is still working out the battle plan, there should be plenty of time, and you will be given an approximate deadline when the time comes."

"According to the conditions of geographical location and nearby transfer, the 48th Division on Taiwan Island and the subordinate divisions of the 13th Army will definitely be the first batch, Shanghai is the main material distribution center, and this time the Jinling government will help purchase and requisition materials, you don't have too much pressure." Matsuda said.

No wonder Chen Gongbo said that some people's eyes were green when they were hungry, referring to the Japanese asking the Jinling government and the puppet Shanghai special city government to "serve" the war and purchase or plunder materials at low prices in central China.

Even if they already stink, these traitors still want to disguise a false posture of serving the country and the people, such as Wang Jingwei's "curve to save the country" traitor theory.

Chen Gongbo, as the No. 2 traitor of Wang's puppet government, is of course unwilling to do this, and the key is that Wang's puppet government is now on an unstable foundation and is preaching the so-called "orthodox government".

After such a toss, persecution and snatching, the reputation of the Wang puppet government is definitely notorious in central China, isn't it a slap in the mouth?

The news revealed by Matsuda Daisa was invaluable to Chen Mingxiang, especially the confirmation of the southward expansion strategy and the general scope of the army's vanguard.

Although the specific time is not known, and the deployment of the military operation is not known, these alone are enough for him to ask Boss Dai for credit.

At seven o'clock, Major General Kinoshita Eichi and Major General Matsuue of the Marine Corps Command of the Military Police Headquarters, Major General Masami Maeda of the Special Service of the Ministry of War in Shanghai, Eiichi Shioi and Katsuo Oka of the Japanese Consulate General in Shanghai, Riddle, Chief Director of the Bureau of the Ministry of Industry of the Concession, and Chief of Police Smyth, Consul General of the Consulates General of various countries in Shanghai, and important figures from the industrial and commercial circles of Shanghai City came to the reception one after another.

Of course, such as Li Shiqun and Pan Dai from the Secret Service Headquarters, Lu Ying and others from the Municipal Police Department, Haruki Nakasa from the Mei Agency, Ono Nakasa and Nakajima Osa from the Marine Corps Headquarters, etc., also came.

The acting secretary general of the municipal government, the leaders of the eight major bureaus, and the leaders of the counties, districts and public offices also rushed to cheer, and Chen Mingxiang was a big celebrity in front of Chen Gongbo.

"Miss Mo, Your Excellency the Mayor wants me to tell you to go to Building 2 of the Garden House to make a record and translate for him, and I will let you be led over." Chen Mingxiang found Mo Guokang and said.

"This band is very performative, the dance music has just started, but I want to leave here, it's really a bad thing, I was going to dance with you!" Mo Guokang said with a smile.

"This meeting won't be too long, it is estimated that it will end at eight o'clock, in fact, I am also looking forward to dancing with the most beautiful lady tonight, waiting for the meeting!" Chen Mingxiang also said with a smile.

Dancing with Chen Gongbo's secretary and lover around is an exciting thing for Chen Mingxiang, but the purpose is not to tease her, but to get closer, this woman can be Chen Gongbo's home, and it is also the killer feature of Chen Mingxiang's mixed municipal government.

Although Mo Guokang is beautiful and temperamental, he is not a leader in a place like Shanghai, and there are outstanding beauties.

"Commissioner Chen, you don't seem to have an ordinary relationship with the mayor's heart, aren't you afraid that Your Excellency the mayor will be jealous?" Ji Ji said with a smile behind him.

"Aji, if I dance with you, will the old man in your family be jealous?" Chen Mingxiang picked up two glasses of wine and handed her one.

This top dancer in Shanghai, known as a Gone with the Wind, her appearance can be described as a sensational cocktail party, everyone knows that Pan Sanxing regards her as the meat of his heart, since the two got married, Ji Ji is the proprietress and rarely appears on such occasions.

"So what are you waiting for? I'm staying in the middle of the bank tonight, so come and sit down with me at the end of the party, I have some news to tell you. Ji Ji leaned into his ear and said.

It must be news about Su Chengde, this damn traitor to Zhongtong, he will always have his own private room in Zhaofeng, and he specializes in trading with the leader of the Huazhu in the patrol room, and Qi Ji, as the proprietor, is likely to have heard something.

"Mr. Chen, I'm Davis from the U.S. Consulate General in Shanghai, can I talk to you privately?" An English-speaking foreigner walked up and said.

Chen Mingxiang, who had just danced with Ji Ji, naturally would not refuse such a request, and he was in a very happy mood at the moment, got Japan's military intelligence, and danced with the most famous backup dancer in Shanghai.

This very attractive woman seems to have encountered something, tonight's performance is a little beyond the scale, Chen Mingxiang can clearly feel her warm body, beautiful curves and silky little hands, no way, it is too tight.

"Your Excellency Davis, please say, what can I do for you?" Chen Mingxiang said with a smile.

The two of them came to an inconspicuous seat in the corner, he knew that this person was the consul of the consulate general, but he had not yet begun to deal with him.

"As the largest international city in Asia, Shanghai has a very important position in terms of commercial trade, a large number of materials come to Shanghai from all over the world, a large part of which is acquired by your Huatong trading company, and our American businessmen also hope to cooperate with your company." Davis said.
