Chapter 165, Friends of Choice
Shanghai Mingyue Pavilion, Xiao Shan pushed them in, only to see Shadow Zuo Zhaoyue was drinking alone with a melancholy face, Xiao Shan smiled slightly, sat down next to Shadow Zuo Zhaoyue, got a glass of wine for himself, and after drinking it all, he looked at Shadow Zuo Zhaoyue and said.
"Zhaoyue, what's wrong with you, you are drinking alone here, why haven't you seen Brother Li!" Ying Zuo Zhaoyue looked at Xiao Shan and drank a drink with him, but he still showed a bitter expression and looked at Xiao Shan Dao.
"He, I didn't call him, I asked you to come out, Xiaoshan called from Manchuria this afternoon, Okamura Ningji will take a boat to Shanghai tomorrow, he is estimated to be taking the place of the eldest brother this time, I think I am about to return to China, two days ago my father wrote a letter, they stood on the wrong side in the conflict between Tojo Hideki and the former prime minister, my father told me to be careful, I see that the eldest brother has been full of confidence, and I didn't tell him, today I also told the eldest brother to let him be careful Okamura Ningji, he didn't agree, we also quarreled about it, you look at it, As soon as Okamura Ninji arrives in Shanghai, I'm afraid he will attack the eldest brother! When Xiao Shan heard that he had a cup with Shadow Zo Zhaoyue, he looked at Shadow Zuo Zhaoyue with relief.
"Zhaoyue, maybe this is a good thing for you, you haven't always wanted to return to China, but because of your eldest brother, you haven't returned to China!"
"Yes, I have always wanted to return to China, but that was at the end of the war, but Okamura Ningji came to Shanghai, which indicates that a new round of war in the empire is about to begin, I really don't want to return to China to see the tragic situation at home, I can imagine that the war has brought great disasters to the Chinese people over the years, and of course you China!"
After listening to Ying Zuo Zhaoyue's words, Xiao Shan also sighed sincerely in his heart, yes, once the war starts, no matter who is on the side of justice, it will be a suffering for the people, but sometimes the war is not something that the people can control, so Xiao Shan raised his wine glass and said with a bright gaze in his eyes.
"Come, Zhaoyue, then tonight I will be the one who is about to return to China for you!" After Xiao Shan finished speaking, Ying Zuo Zhaoyue looked at Xiao Shan, smiled knowingly, also raised his wine glass, and drank it all, and then Ying Zuo Zhaoyue looked at Xiao Shan Dao with bright eyes.
"Xiaoshan, if it weren't for the war, we might really be not just friends, but also confidants, I know that your Dayu Chamber of Commerce smuggled with the Chongqing government on the surface and corrupted the Chongqing government, in fact, you secretly sent materials to the anti-Japanese front, in fact, I know that you are not a traitor, you are a real Chinese!"
Xiao Shan listened to Ying Zuo Zhaoyue's words and was shocked in his heart, and couldn't help but look at Ying Zuo Zhaoyue with a solemn gaze flashing in his eyes, and wondered in his heart, when did he see it, Ying Zuo Zhaoyue looked at Xiao Shan with a vigilant expression and smiled slightly.
"Don't worry, I know about this matter myself, and I won't say it to anyone other than you and me, the reason why I fulfilled you is just to atone for the crimes we committed in China, and now that I'm leaving, I'll be honest with you!"
Xiao Shan listened to the words of Shadow Zo Zhaoyue, and the sincere words shocked Xiao Shan's heart, and he couldn't help but praise from the bottom of his heart, he was really an alternative Japanese, so Xiao Shan picked up the wine glass and looked at Shadow Zuo Zhaoyue solemnly.
"This glass of wine, I Xiaoshan respects you, Zhaoyue, no matter what happens after you return to China, no matter what the relationship between our two countries will be in the future, you will always be my Xiaoshan's confidant!"
Shadow Zuo Zhaoyue listened to Xiao Shan's words, knowing that he agreed with his own feelings, and that he was born a confidant, and it was also a blessing in a foreign country, so he raised his wine glass and touched Xiao Shan, and drank it all, and then Xiao Shan and Shadow Zuo Zhaoyue lit a cigarette, and Shadow Zuo Zhaoyue let out a long puff of smoke and looked at Xiao Shan Road.
"I think this time Okamura Ningji to Shanghai must be for a new round of war, and he must have a military deployment map of the imperial army garrison in northern Burma and western Yunnan, you still have to get it, maybe it will have a great effect on your new war, this is the last information I told you before returning home, by the way, after doing this, you still have to leave Shanghai, a place of right and wrong, he Okamura Ningji is menacing this time, in order to stabilize the rear, once my eldest brother and I leave Shanghai, I think the next step will be to do something to your Dayu Chamber of Commerce, they are resolute! ”
Xiao Shan listened to Shadow Akitsuki's words and knew that this was his advice to himself, it seemed that Okamura Ningji was really bad at coming to Shanghai this time, so Xiao Shan secretly remembered it in his heart, and talked with Shadow Akitsuki about drinking, and the two drank until late at night before they dispersed.
The next day, Xiao Shan returned to the Dayu Chamber of Commerce, looking at Ah Cheng with a smile on his face, Xiao Shan smiled slightly, since Ah Zheng came to Shanghai with Xie Tian, Ah Cheng's face had a little more kind taste, Xiao Shan greeted Ah Gui, Xie Tian, Lin Kexin, Wang Yan came to the second floor of the Dayu Chamber of Commerce, Xiao Shan lit a cigarette and looked at the four people.
"Last night, Kagesa Akitsuki told me that Okamura Ninji arrived in Shanghai at three o'clock this afternoon, and he also brought a map of the military deployment of the Japanese army with him, it is said that this time Ono Jiro will also accompany him to Shanghai, in order to reduce the risk of our future actions, I think I will go to the Huang Mansion in a while, inform the third uncle, and let him come to a transfer plan when Okamura Ninji gets off the ship!" After Xiao Shan finished speaking, Ah Gui first disagreed, and looked at Xiao Shan Dao sternly.
"No! Xiaoshan, I don't agree with your plan, you are too arbitrary this time, let's not talk about the success rate, even if it is successful, the Japanese army knows that their military deployment map has been stolen, and they will definitely take precautions! After listening to Ah Gui's words, Xiao Shan seemed to have expected Ah Gui to say this, so he smiled slightly.
"Uncle Gui, this time the Japanese army is different from the past, the battlefield in northern Burma, the Japanese army is on the defensive, our army will definitely launch a counteroffensive, after all, it is about the life supply line, even if the Japanese army knows, what else can they do, it is nothing more than to strengthen defense, if the large-scale transfer of the corps, it will definitely attract the attention of our army, it is okay if they don't move, the transfer is still with me!"
After Xiao Shan finished speaking, Ah Gui, Xie Tian and others thought about it and understood that what Xiao Shan wanted this time was Yangmou, and tell you the Japanese that your military deployment was obtained by us, so that the Japanese army was weakened by one percent in morale first, and everyone thought about it and agreed with Xiao Shan's opinion, Xiao Shan actually has another meaning, that is, to test the depth of Okamura Ningci, since he knows that he wants to shoot at himself, it is better to start first, see what means Okamura Ningci has, and whether this military deployment map is true or false!
And just when Xiaoshan heard a cry of disagreement, at this moment at the Manchuria Railway Station, Matsui Ishihara looked at Yoko Matsui, Jiro Ono, and Fuji Kyoyamado angrily.
"No, why don't you discuss such a big matter with me, Ono-kun, I'll let you treat my daughter well, you just promised yesterday, what did you do today! I'm going to take her to the complicated place in Shanghai, and you Jingshan, since you knew that Miss was going to Shanghai last night, why didn't you tell me, and promised her, you, now it's really getting more and more like a housekeeper! ”
Ono Jiro and Fuji Kyoyama looked at Matsui Ishihara's annoyed and angry expression and were silent for a while, neither of them dared to make a sound, seeing Matsui Ishihara look like this, they were really angry, and the two had to look at Yoko Matsui and Okamura Ninji for help.
Yoko Matsui looked at Matsui Ishihara's expression, and a trace of guilt flashed in her heart, and then coquettishly took Matsui Ishihara's right hand and looked at Matsui Ishihara.
"Father, you just let me go, I have never been to Shanghai, I want to see what the south of China is like, don't worry, this is not Uncle Jingshan to accompany me, you don't know his ability, I won't have anything, you just let me go, go, father, I will not get into trouble, do not delay Ono-kun and Uncle Okamura to do their business, okay, father, you just let me go!"
Matsui Ishihara listened to Matsui Yoko's coquettishness and his head was also big for a while, so he looked at Okamura Ningji who was watching the play, Okamura Ningji looked at Matsui Ishihara's eyes, naturally did not accept the move, and made a helpless gesture, Matsui Ishihara was helpless, and looked at Matsui Yoko with a serious tone.
"My daughter, that Shanghai is different from Manchuria, there are anti-Japanese elements hidden there, Ono went this time for this matter, this trip is dangerous, if you are in any danger, how can I explain to your mother, you are still staying in Manchuria, under my father's nose, I don't worry, anyway, I just don't agree with you to go!"
After Matsui Ishihara finished speaking, his eyes flashed with a determined gaze, and Yoko Matsui looked at Matsui Ishihara's determined gaze, and she was not afraid, but her eyes flashed with a more determined gaze, looking at Matsui Ishihara Michi.
"Father, you can't stop me, my daughter has grown up, the eagle will always fly in the sky one day, I can't stay under your wings all day, what do you say, this time I will go, today I can also go with Uncle Okamura Ninji and them, but you won't let me go today, I will go secretly by myself in the future, then something will really happen, see how you explain to my mother, hum! You're busy with business anyway, you can't stand me! ”
After Matsui Yoko finished speaking, she turned her head angrily, and made a grimace at Ono Jiro, Matsui Ishihara looked at Matsui Yoko angrily ignoring herself, that resolute attitude, so that Matsui Ishihara was helpless, yes, today they left Manchuria together and there is a guard protection, if she runs out secretly, there is no so-called guard, if something really happens, I am afraid that it will be too late to regret it, so I nodded helplessly and agreed, and then viciously called Ono Jiro aside and said.
"Ono, you kid is good, you kidnapped my daughter to Shanghai, I warn you, if something happens to my daughter, only you ask, even if you die, my daughter can't die, understand?"
Ono Jiro listened to Matsui Ishihara's words, he didn't understand a father's thoughts, so he solemnly gave Matsui Ishihara a military salute.
"Don't worry, General, I will definitely protect Miss Yoko, even if I die, let her return to you safe and sound!"
Matsui Ishihara looked at Ono Jiro's expression, and patted Ono Jiro's shoulder generously.
"Silly boy, how can I let you die, you must give me back alive, I don't allow my daughter to be widowed, the situation in Shanghai is complicated, you must be cautious, it is good to have Yoko by your side, you will be more cautious, go, I will wait for you to return triumphantly, and then I will personally hold a wedding for you in Manchuria!"
After Matsui Ishihara finished speaking, Ono Jiro's face also showed a bright smile, the two hugged each other, Matsui Ishihara reluctantly watched his daughter, his friend, and his love leave Manchuria, and said with a heartfelt blessing in his heart, I hope you have a smooth trip and return safely, war, now it's really a whole country, it's good to end it quickly!
