Chapter 465: Bringing the Topic Up

The station of the Jiangxia gendarmerie detachment was originally the office space of the Jiangcheng Dafu Bank, which is a four-story Western-style building with a strong classical style.

Okamura's office is on the second floor, which is larger and more luxurious than the office of the chief of the special high section of the headquarters of the military police in Shanghai.

"Chen Jun, please take a seat, some time ago, a businessman returned to Japan and brought me tea from his hometown, and he brought two catties with him when he left." Okamura made a pot of tea himself.

"I came to visit the section chief this time, I don't have anything to bring to you, there are 10,000 dollars in it, which is a little bit of my heart." Chen Mingxiang took out a sealed paper bag from his bag.

"Chen Jun, we are good friends, so we don't have to be like this to each other, right? General Kinoshita sent me the dividends from the Huatong Trading Company to the Gendarmerie Headquarters every month, and it was not difficult for me to spend money. Okamura Shaoza refused very resolutely.

10,000 US dollars, that costs 30,000 yen to exchange, this money is really a lot, which can also see Chen Mingxiang's respect for him.

"Gangmura-kun, it is precisely because we have not only a superior-subordinate relationship, but also a very good friend in private, so you don't refuse, the dollar is valuable, and friendship is priceless." Chen Mingxiang wanted to vomit himself.

"Well said, I don't have many friends in Huaxia, and I also cherish my friendship with Chen Jun, then I'll accept it, this time you have to stay in Jiangcheng for a few more days, I will entertain you well." Okamura said.

It is not once or twice to take money from Chen Mingxiang's hands, the action is quite skillful, he is very happy and very emotional, just because of the investment in Chen Mingxiang, he has received unimaginable returns.

At present, in Japan, one of his families has no worries about food and clothing, although they have money, they dare not spend it indiscriminately, and they may be able to wear new clothes after eating, which is already very good.

That night, in the best restaurant in Jiangxia, Okamura Shaozo hosted a banquet for Chen Mingxiang, and those who were eligible to participate, except for the leaders of the three squads, were Huang Weijun's Xiong Jiandong, Zou Pingfan and Zou Youjun, two major generals and one colonel.

Huang Weijun was responsible for protecting the Japanese army's military facilities and maintaining local order in Jiangxia, and Okamura Shaozo served as the liaison with the Japanese military's high-level personnel.

"I have just met you, and this time I came from Shanghai, and I didn't bring any gifts, a red envelope per person, to express my heart slightly." Chen Mingxiang said with a smile.

"It's all your own people, you open it and take a look, Chen Jun has always been worthy of his friends, and I hope you will be worthy of his heart in the future." Gangcun Shizo did not shy away from it at all.

The people present opened the red envelope and looked at it, and were immediately stunned, Xiong Jiandong and Zou Pingfan were 1,000 US dollars, and the remaining four people were 500 US dollars.

In the 30th year of the Republic of China, this meeting gift is definitely a big deal, the overlord of the smuggling industry from Shanghai City, and he stopped these people with his shot, the key is that the dollar is not easy to do now.

As the saying goes, it's easy to do things with money, seeing this rich meeting gift, everyone present was naturally very happy, and the atmosphere on the wine table quickly warmed up, and one person toasted Chen Mingxiang with a glass of wine, fortunately it was Japanese sake, otherwise Chen Mingxiang couldn't stand it at all.

"My brother also has a part-time job in the Qingxiang Committee, which is a coincidence, I am going to go to Suzhou after the New Year, you know, when I was in the Loyal Salvation Army before, it was my territory, there are many old subordinates, according to the requirements of the imperial army, the Huang Weijun will continue to expand its strength." Xiong Jiandong said with a smile.

"If my brother arrives in Suzhou, I will take a trip to Shanghai, and eating, drinking, and having fun will be counted in my account, and I have to give my brother a face for this matter." Chen Mingxiang also said.

As they talked, a group of people talked about the second Battle of Tanzhou, which is also a common topic when soldiers drink and chat together. The headquarters of the 11th Army of the Japanese Army is in Jiangcheng, and these people here know some information.

"According to the people at the headquarters, at present, all units of the 11th Army are progressing smoothly, and they are not far from the predetermined target, and it is expected that Tanzhou will be occupied on the 24th and 25th at most, and the campaign will be successfully completed."

"But the trouble is that this battle caused a chain reaction, and the third theater of the Shancheng government launched an attack on the imperial strongholds around Yuzhang, important towns along the Yangtze River, and important islands in Fujian Province. The Fifth Theater launched attacks on towns along the Pinghan Railway, the Jinpu Railway, the Longhai Railway, and the north bank of the Yangtze River. ”

"The most threatening is the Sixth War Zone, according to the news of the Special High Division, from the 23rd, a large-scale military transfer was launched in the area around Yiling, which is the station of the 13th Division, but in order to participate in the Battle of Tanzhou, part of the army was transferred to Baling, and the current strength is seriously insufficient, and the other party wants to take the opportunity to seize Yiling." Okamura said.

Seeing that the Ninth Theater was in a bitter battle, it also dragged down a large number of troops of the Eleventh Army, and the rest of the theater naturally had to take the opportunity to launch a counterattack.

In particular, in the Sixth Theater with Chen Cheng as its commander, the Military Commission of the Shancheng Government issued a telegram ordering that Yiling must be recaptured, and for this reason, the strength of the 33rd Group Army of the Fifth Theater, a total of two armies and six divisions, was temporarily assigned to the command of the Sixth Theater.

With the absolute superiority of troops, Chen Cheng began to issue orders on the 23rd to prepare for a strong attack on Yiling, but this time the orders of the Shancheng Government Military Commission were too hasty, and the troops were not prepared in advance, and the action was very slow, and they had not yet entered the attack position.

"I heard Major General Maeda Masumi of the Ministry of War in Shanghai say that the 11 th Army has a very powerful telecommunications reconnaissance and cracking organization, which has deciphered all the cipher codes of the Ninth Theater Command." Chen Mingxiang felt a little unaccustomed to Jiangcheng cuisine, he was from the north and felt a little spicy.

"You are becoming more and more valued by the high-level, and such an important military secret can also tell you, yes, there is indeed a secret agency, called the Special Intelligence Division, which is located in the building of the headquarters, and is responsible for the monitoring and decipherment of the secret code of the Shancheng government."

"This agency has cooperated with the telecommunications class of the special high section of the Jiangxia Military Police Headquarters, I know some information, but unfortunately, although the message was deciphered last time, the 37th Army of the other side was too cunning, and it actually slipped away outside the encirclement."

"I get along very well with the head of the Special Intelligence Division, Inoue Daisa, and we often eat together to see if the opportunity allows, maybe you can meet him, but the chance is very small, and now is the combat period after all." Okamura said with a smile.

In his opinion, the relationship between Chen Mingxiang and the Japanese military top level is getting closer and closer, about this secret agency of the 11th Army Headquarters, except for the relevant personnel, all the people who know about it are the top military officials, and Maeda Masashi can tell Chen Mingxiang the news, which shows that he has great trust in this guy.

But how did he know that this was a secret that Major General Maeda Masami inadvertently leaked when he was in a good mood when he was full of food and drink, but he was misled.
