Chapter 670: Giving Up the Opportunity

"Chen Jun, welcome to the headquarters as a guest, your efficiency is very high, at the end of last month, the Kodama agency asked you to purchase a batch of tungsten ore, and it was overfulfilled in less than a month, and there were as many as two hundred and twenty tons, Admiral Furukawa Feng of the Fleet Headquarters, I want to convey his thanks to you." Lieutenant General Makita was very pleased to receive Chen Mingxiang.

Tungsten is a rare metal, but also the manufacture of weapons and equipment essential metal, whether in the military or civilian industry, the use of turning tools and drills particularly dependent on tungsten alloy, in addition to tungsten is also widely used in armor and anti-armor weapons, even most of the lighting is tungsten bulb.

This is the contradiction between the navy and the army, on land, the navy has no ability and the army to compete for resources, the purchase of tungsten ore is squeezed out by the army, and the bigwigs of the military command department are jumping to their feet, but China is a country rich in tungsten ore resources, and the fleet command has been under great pressure.

Chen Mingxiang brought an astonishing amount of tungsten ore from the Kokutong area, relieved the siege of the Front Fleet, the Kodama Agency, and the Marine Corps Headquarters, and was rewarded by the Military Command Department, and Vice Admiral Makita of course welcomed him.

"Your Excellency General, I came to the headquarters this time to ask you to provide me with some help, and I am really embarrassed to say this." Chen Mingxiang said.

He dared to visit and ask to buy a ship, relying on this tungsten ore business, which amounted to 200 tons at a time, and this kind of smuggling except for the Huatong Trading Company, it should be said that no other smuggler could do it for the time being.

The Shancheng government attaches great importance to tungsten ore, which is the main resource used to repay the Anglo-American loans, and the cost of transporting such a large amount of tungsten ore from the production areas of Hunan and Jiangxi provinces to Zhenjiang for delivery in a short period of time can be imagined.

"Chen Jun, I saw your recruitment advertisement in the newspaper a few days ago, Huatong Trading Company seems to be opening up business in North China and outside the Guan, let's listen to it, as long as it is within its ability, the navy will definitely not treat friends badly, and will consider it as appropriate." Ono said.

He was one of the first naval officers to contact Chen Mingxiang, and the two had the deepest friendship, which was also to help Chen Mingxiang speak, and there must be someone who knocked on the side.

"I hope to be able to buy a few ships from the navy, preferably with a larger tonnage, and I plan to transport coal, cotton, and salt and other goods from North China to Central China for profit, and at present sea transportation is the safest and fastest way, and land transportation cannot be guaranteed." Chen Mingxiang said.

"What should I do, since you raised this problem, then there is a way to solve it, in fact, the transport ships on the naval side are also very nervous, but the Third Fleet still has some confiscated British and American ships, I can apply to the Fleet Command and the Third Fleet Command to lease some large ships for you."

"It is estimated that it is difficult to buy, at most one or two ships, this is the property of the empire, and I am also worried that those bastard Japanese businessmen will sue, if it is not for the fact that even the military command department knows your credit, if you change someone else, don't even think about it." Lieutenant General Makita breathed a sigh of relief.

The navy is still counting on Chen Mingxiang to continue smuggling tungsten ore, but they dare not really offend him, without the support of the navy, Chen Mingxiang relies on the army, and he still eats and drinks spicy food, which is nothing more than the higher price given by the navy, the profit is greater, and nothing else matters.

"Miki, Director Mao has sent another telegram, he suggests that you evacuate from Shanghai, and Boss Dai also means this. Even though you are in a police station right now, you may not have access to any military secrets in that kind of environment under surveillance. ”

Director Mao said that Chen Mingxiang's Huatong Trading Company, the main smuggling relationship of the bureau headquarters in Shanghai, is about to conduct business in North China and outside the customs in the near future, and the northern region, which is a half-blank area in the Military Command Bureau, is in need of talent.

"If you want, the bureau headquarters can use the brother units in Shanghai to rescue you, and appoint you as the stationmaster of Jincheng Station, and continue to fight against the Japanese puppet, Boss Dai has high hopes for you, Jincheng Station is a kind of station, and the stationmasters are basically major generals." Hu Dezhen said.

This arrangement is enough to see that Boss Dai attaches great importance to Mao Sanmu, and when he was caught, not only did he not blame, but entrusted him with a heavy responsibility.

Mao Renfeng made it clear that he was telling him that as long as he worked hard at Jincheng Station, Boss Dai would definitely promote him to be a major general in the future, and this treatment was really rare in the All-Army Unified Bureau.

"You don't understand, if I accept this arrangement from the boss and really go to Jincheng Station to become the stationmaster, then I don't want to raise my head in my life, and there will be an indelible stain on my resume!"

"The Japanese didn't want to kill me, they just wanted to use me as a hostage in exchange for the peace of Shanghai, and with the disbandment of the Action Corps and the transfer to the guerrillas of the Loyal National Salvation Army in the suburbs, I became less of a threat, and they valued me even more."

"Now that I am very familiar with the head of the Police Division of the Military Police Headquarters, Kiyoshi Tsukamoto, and I have gradually begun to get in touch with the work of the Police Division, I must not give up such an opportunity, I want to leave Shanghai with a clean and clean scene!"

"What's more, the situation in Jincheng is even more dangerous than in Shanghai, here, there is no problem with my safety, but when I arrive in Jincheng, it is difficult to say." Mao Miki shook his head and said.

He didn't know that Boss Dai played this game of chess, the expansion speed of the direct station was too fast, and the territory was getting bigger and bigger, once the Guanwai Intelligence Office and the North China Intelligence Office branched out and stabilized in the local area, what a terrible situation would it be?

Boss Dai is not suspicious of Chen Mingxiang, otherwise he would not have approved the establishment of these two intelligence departments, and he would have allocated funds to allocate equipment and personnel to support them, this is the instinctive reaction of the superiors, and the development of subordinates must be within the control of the boss, and the rules of the game of the Military Control Bureau are like this.

But this kind of thing can be done or not, whether it is to Chen Mingxiang or Mao Sanmu, he can't say what he means, he is not the boss like this.

"Then how do I reply to the bureau headquarters? Director Mao is still waiting for your decision! Hu Dezhen asked.

She believes in her husband's wisdom, the military command organization in North China, there is basically nothing left after being purged by the Japanese puppet, and there is a serious lack of combat effectiveness and resources.

"I replied according to my intentions, I am determined to lurk in Shanghai to make meritorious contributions, and I have to wash away my shame, and I have achieved initial results, and I have set up a line with the police department of the military police headquarters, and I ask the bureau headquarters to continue to support the expenses."

"I hope to use the relationship of the military police command to expand my intelligence network and obtain more information about the Japanese army, and I hope that Boss Dai and Director Mao will tolerate Haihan in this regard." Mao Miki said with a smile.
