Why was Kagesa Zhenzhao, who single-handedly formed the Jinling government, dismissed from his post as the top military adviser by the Tojo cabinet and sent to Kanwai as the commander of the artillery?

The key reason is the Jinling government!

Wang Jingwei, Zhou Gaohai and others, since the establishment of the Jinling government, have constantly demanded administrative power, economic benefits, and weapons and equipment from the empire, making it clear that they want more autonomy.

This is not a problem, as long as it can help the empire eliminate the Shancheng government, obtain the resources of Huaxia, and serve the empire in waging war, these conditions can be met.

The trouble is that up to now, the empire's efforts and benefits are obviously not proportional, and the Jinling government is not only passive against the Shancheng government, but also negative towards the empire, and it has made a loss in this deal.

If Japan had not started the Pacific War, there might have been hope that this problem would have been resolved, but now it is impossible.

Supporting a puppet government requires a special opportunity and requires a lot of resource investment, which cannot be operated casually, and the Japanese government is also anxious and does not know how to deal with it, and it is reasonable to put the responsibility on the head of Kage Satsuki.

"Although I didn't get to attend General Yingzuo's farewell banquet, I heard that it was organized by Chen Mingxiang for the general, and it was very grand, and His Excellency the general also specially introduced him to the members of the Mei Agency, and General Yingzuo took great care of me, since Chen Mingxiang had a problem, I would do my best."

"There hasn't been any major strategic change in the base camp yet, and the empire still needs Li Shiqun to deter these slippery politicians, and it's time for General Matsui to make his voice heard."

"The general will come to Shanghai in two days, I will talk to him in advance, and then tell you the results, in fact, the role that the secret service headquarters can play is not much, and it is not as valuable as Chen Mingxiang, at least his Huatong Trading Company can bring strategic materials to the imperial army." Takeo Imai said.

Wang Jingwei formed a puppet government with the help of Japan's military force, betrayed the country and the nation, and deserved to be the No. 1 traitor in China, but the goal he sought was definitely not just a puppet, whoever believed such words would be a fool!

Everyone wants to have real power in their hands, and no one wants to be a marionette, of course Wang Jingwei is not willing, to be a traitor, and he has to be a traitor.

The Jinling government has gradually taken shape, and he is using such a bargaining chip to constantly put forward conditions to the Japanese government to obtain more autonomy, and in such a situation, the secret service headquarters is of no use at all.

Both of them understand very well that the fate of Li Shiqun and the secret service headquarters does not depend on the Jinling government, nor on the Mei organ, but on the strategy of the base camp against the Jinling government.

The empire needs Li Shiqun, he can live unscrupulously, the empire does not need him, he will be eradicated at any time, this is a bloody reality.

"Mingxiang, I have followed your requirements, on the front page of several large newspapers in Shanghai, published recruitment advertisements, with the reputation of our Huatong Trading Company in the entire Central China region, I believe that we will soon be able to recruit suitable candidates."

"Since the occupation of the Public Concession by the Japanese army, all the British and American companies have fallen into the hands of Japanese merchants, and the senior managers and clerks of the former foreign companies have lost their jobs. These people are experienced, skilled and broad-minded, and can play an important role in the company's development of the North China market. ”

"At present, it is difficult to find a job in Shanghai, Huatong Trading Company has a good salary, and there is a deep background, it is estimated that a large number of people will sign up tomorrow." Wang Zhen returned to Marat Villa and said.

It has already been decided to infiltrate forces into North China and open a branch in Beiping, and it is also to obey the instructions of the bureau headquarters, so that some experienced managers and clerks will definitely be needed.

Chen Mingxiang took advantage of this time to dredge the channel for Li Shiqun, and for the time being, he had to wait for a few days, just to finish this important matter by the way, and then take people directly to Beiping.

There are hundreds of large British and American companies in the public concession, and a large number of business talents with modern Western business thinking and ability have also been trained.

Who doesn't know the background of Huatong Trading Company in the business community of Shanghai?

This is a military-managed enterprise backed by the Japanese military police and marines, and even the secret service headquarters and the police station dare not manage it.

It is conceivable that after the recruitment advertisement is published, how much impact it will have in the Shanghai market, is it not to work in North China and outside the customs, and some people are willing to go.

"I will not participate in the specific matters of recruitment, you and the company's personnel director are responsible for this interview, you can recruit more people, most of them are placed in major cities in North China, and a small number are placed outside the customs."

"Note that this is a person stationed in the field, and if you want to join the company, you must find a qualified guarantor, and you must have a complete family, preferably the kind with a little assets."

"I can still inspect the branches and acquisition stations in North China from time to time, but the distance outside the customs is too far, and I can't go to two or three times a year, so you should know how to choose." Chen Mingxiang said with a smile.

He has absolute confidence in opening up the network in North China, once the business is carried out, the start-up capital alone will have to be as much as several million, and Huatong Trading Company will not do small business.

Chen Mingxiang is worried that the emperor is far away, his supervision is not in place, and his subordinates may report false accounts and embezzlement, so some restrictions must be set up.

How to say, according to normal people's thinking, this kind of worry is not superfluous, there will always be someone who can't resist the temptation of money, but in fact, it is a bit unnecessary for him.

Dare to do something in Huatong Trading Company, it is simply impatient, and I don't look at what kind of enterprise this is, people with families and relatives and children dare not move such thoughts when they are killed!

"The coal shortage in Shanghai is getting worse and worse, and those speculators are hoarding coal and not releasing it, and the company's employees are talking about it privately, and it has become very difficult to even buy briquettes."

"When the business of the Beiping branch is on the right track, you can think of a way to use our fleet to transport a few ships of coal from North China, which is also a benefit for the staff." Wang Zhen said.

"Hmph, coal is a necessity of daily life in Shanghai, and the idea of moving coal is to get stuck in the necks of the common people, these profiteers are tantamount to making a fortune in the country, which is really hateful!"

"Don't worry, North China is rich in coal resources, I will consider this problem, but once I do it, I will have to make them suffer!" Chen Mingxiang said with a sneer.
