Shanghai, the concession is very lively these days, the atmosphere of the New Year is particularly strong, sweeping away the decadence of previous years, firecrackers roar on the streets, shops are hung with festive red, and the bustling crowd is full of laughter.

"Look at the newspaper, read the newspaper, watch the victory in Yucheng!"

"The Nationalist Government announced the war report, and the Jinpu Road operation wiped out 300,000 Japanese troops!"

"Look at the photo of Lieutenant General Sadazo Ishiguro!"

"Western military observers believe that the Japanese army suffered a serious defeat!"

"China's Moses, Admiral Zhuang Jihua announced that it will continue to **!"

"The people of eastern Henan enthusiastically joined the army and insisted on resisting the war to the end!"

Groups of people surrounded the newsboy, threw down the money, picked up the newspaper and left, there were fewer drunken Japanese on the street, and there was no trace of the traitors who used to be openly active, and the sound crossed the Suzhou Creek and drifted into the occupied area, and the Japanese military posts on the Suzhou Creek were busier, forbidding anyone to bring newspapers and magazines from the isolated island.

Compared with the bustle of other districts in the Public Concession, Hongkou District is very quiet, where the traces of war are still there, the destroyed houses have become a paradise for children, and the volunteers are a little listless.

There is a Western-style villa with a repainted exterior near Hongkou Park, and you can see the quiet courtyard inside through the gap in the closed gate, and you can't see a single person, but occasionally the door is open, and all that comes out of it are cars with tight curtains.

The black sedan stopped in front of the small building, and Osawa Shigoro jumped down from the passenger seat, and then quickly opened the rear door, and two middle-aged people came out of it, one in front was wearing a beige suit, and the one in the back was wearing a tunic suit.

"Li Sang, please." The suit stretched out his hand to make a gesture of invitation, and the tunic returned the salute slightly, and replied humbly: "The guest does not oppress the master, Mr. Qingqi, you please." ”

"No, no, you are the lord in this land, we are only here to help you resist the British and American rule, and after victory, we will return to Japan at that time, and this place is still yours." Haruhi replied with a smile

Daze stood behind the two of them, with a smile on his face, but he was very disdainful in his heart, the suit was Tu Feiyuan's assistant Qingqi Qingyin, and the tunic was the former agent of the Central Committee Li Shiqun, this Li Shiqun was the first Chinese agent to defect to the Japanese organs, and after coming over, he made several contributions, and rebelled against Ding Mocun, director of the Third Division of the Investigation and Statistics Bureau of the former Military Commission, and made special contributions, which was very valued by Tu Feiyuan.

The two pushed for a while, Li Shiqun didn't dare to walk in front of Qingqi no matter what, Qingqi still took the lead in entering the gate of Chongguangtang, and Li Shiqun and Daze followed behind him.

The three of them went up to the second floor and came to Qingqi's office, and when they arrived at the door, Qingqi instructed Daze: "Go and see if Mr. Ding has arrived, and if he does, please come with him." ”

After Daze agreed, before he turned around, the door of another room by the corridor opened, and two people came out from inside, and Qingqi greeted with a smile: "Mr. Ding, I'm sorry, I've been waiting for you for a long time." ”

"You're polite, you're polite," Ding Mochun said with a smile, a hint of worry between his eyebrows, "I haven't been there for long. ”

"Please, come along." Qingqi said and walked into the house, and several mermaids rushed in, and Daze had the lowest status among them, so he was naturally at the end.

Qingqi's office is a suite, the outer room is the office of the adjutant's secretary, and the inner room is his office, Daze is not his adjutant or secretary, but temporarily transferred to be in charge of liaison with Li Shiqun and Ding Mocun, and his main job is intelligence gathering, especially the development of intelligence organizations among Koreans in China.

"Miss Meyu," Osawa said to a slender woman in a suit who appeared at the door, "four cups of tea, please, I'm sorry for your trouble." ”

In the agency, Daze has always maintained a humble attitude towards everyone, including these few entertainers who serve tea and pour water, as for whether this is just their public identity, Daze doesn't care about this.

"Hey." Megumi replied with a low brow, and after a while, he brought five cups of tea, first put one cup for Daze in the outer room, and then brought it into the inner room.

Osawa is very clear about what is going to be discussed today, with the victory of the squadron on the battlefield, the resistance of the Chinese in the concession is getting stronger and stronger, some Chinese who are friendly to Japan are frequently assassinated, not long ago even people like Tang Shaoyi were assassinated, this situation caused concern in Tokyo, Tokyo handed over this issue to Tu Feiyuan, who in turn handed over this issue to his assistant Qingqi Qingyin, and Qingqi asked Ding Mochun and Li Shiqun for advice, and both proposed to set up a Chinese secret service organization, It was up to this organization to settle the affairs in the concession, and today they are discussing the details of the establishment of this organization.

"Ding, ding," the phone rang, and after a while, Osawa heard Qingqi call him in, and he pushed the door and walked in.

"Go and fetch the new well and have him wait for me outside."

Osawa noticed that there was a trace of disdain in the corners of his eyes when Qingqi said this, he didn't know what he said on the phone just now, and hurriedly agreed. Arai is the head of the intelligence section of the agency, after the capture of Nanjing, due to intelligence mistakes in the air force, several main responsible persons of the secret service agency were replaced, the original person in charge Kojima was forced to order seppuku to apologize, this Arai came to Shanghai after Nanjing, he was originally in charge of dealing with the local anti-coalition forces in North Manchuria, and he was a very ruthless character.

After Osawa found Arai, he sat outside and waited, there is an unwritten rule in the secret service organization, don't ask what others are doing, so the two of them idle a few nonsense words about the weather, and then they shut up and didn't talk about it, just sat there quietly, but no one dared to show an impatient look, Qingqi is a person who looks amiable, but in fact he is very strict, and he is very strict with his subordinates.

More than an hour later, Qing Qi politely sent Li Shiqun and Ding Mo Estate away, several people had smiles on their faces, it could be seen that they were very satisfied with the results of the discussion, to the door, Ding Mo Estate and Li Shiqun stopped at the same time to ask Qing Qi to stay, Qing Qi no longer shirked, the corner of his eyes swept down Daze and Arai who were standing aside, and then smiled and agreed, asking Jiao Rong, who accompanied Ding Mo Estate, to send them out, Jiao Rong is the appointed agent organization consultant.

The smile on Hari's face was swept away, and he called Arai and Osawa into the office and asked them to sit down across from each other, and then they were silent, and Arai and Osawa were uneasy.

"Your Excellency, is there any mission?" Arai asked cautiously.

Qingqi didn't answer, but took out the cigarette case from the drawer, took out a cigarette from it, Daze hurriedly took out a lighter and lit it for him, and after exhaling the smoke, Qingqi said disdainfully: "Those people are in big trouble now, and they can't solve it, find us, let us find a way." ”

Arai and Osawa both knew who the gang in Hariki's mouth was referring to, and as the losses of the Japanese army increased, the debate within the military headquarters became more and more intense, and after Ishihara was relegated to the northeast, his ideas did not disappear, and the head of the strategy section of the General Staff, Kage Satsuaki, became the core figure of the non-expansion faction.

As the war progressed, the group of people who had advocated expansion began to divide, and the attitudes of people such as Itagaki Seishiro and Dohihara changed, and Itagaki even began to tentatively propose Chiang Kai-shek's conditions as a condition for peace talks in the military headquarters, and Tohi Principle worked hard to find people in China and organize a government that could counter Chiang Kai-shek.

Qingqi had more contact with Kagezo Zhenzhao, and was greatly influenced by him, and Qingqi looked down on the martial artists in Nanjing and Tokyo who only knew how to wield swords and guns, and he believed that it was impossible to conquer China by force, and that it was necessary to do both. After conquering Nanjing, Qingqi once put forward an idea to stop military operations, negotiate with Chiang Kai-shek, and use Nanjing, Shanghai, Pingjin as a bargaining chip, and only ask for part of the rights and interests of eastern Hebei, and even the autonomy of eastern Hebei can be dispensed without, in exchange for armistice and peace. This plan was resolutely opposed by the Nanking Dispatch Army and the Enlarged Tokyo Military Department, and he was almost removed from his post and transferred to the reserve.

Now the results of the war proved that his original judgment was very wise, although Japan conquered many Chinese cities, but the Japanese army's losses were getting bigger and bigger, the enthusiasm of all strata of China to resist the war was getting higher and higher, all the work of Tufeiyuan was defeated, Wu Peifu, Cao Kun, Xu Yongchang and others all refused to cooperate with the Japanese, and the victory of Yucheng in Xuzhou made more Chinese who originally planned to cooperate with the Japanese hesitate and cringe.

The defeat of Yucheng and the annihilation of the two divisions led by the news that the whole country of Japan was in an uproar, and spirit-summoning meetings were held in Tokyo and Nanjing, attended by the emperor and Prime Minister Konoe. In any case, it is difficult for the people to accept that the dignified Imperial Japanese Army was actually defeated by the weak ** army, and the call for accountability for the defeat is getting stronger and stronger, and what is more, because China has publicly announced that it will not accept prisoners of war from the Fifth Division, the 28th Division, and the 39th Division, some people in the people have begun to inquire about this matter, some have proposed retaliation, and some have proposed reciprocal treatment, and Zhuang Jihua has been declared a war criminal.

In view of this situation, the Japanese high-level core began to accept the strategy of negotiating with Chiang Kai-shek, but to negotiate with Chiang Kai-shek, Konoe became a stumbling block, Konoe publicly stated that he did not regard the Nanjing government as an opponent, which made him unable to come forward to negotiate with Chiang Kai-shek, and the Tokyo political circles began to brew a change of generals, and the military department in order to save the influence, the idea was hit to the secret service headquarters.

"Daze, has the Blue Coat Society organization in the concession found it recently?" Harunai didn't care about Arai, and asked Osawa first.

"All gone, there is no trace," Daze showed a look of shame, after Ding Mocun took refuge in it, he provided Tu Feiyuan with a list of anti-Japanese groups in the Shanghai Concession, as well as a list of military commanders and Zhongtong Shanghai lurking personnel, the details of this list surprised Tu Feiyuan, and immediately arranged a secret search according to the list, but then it was found that most of these people disappeared, especially the core personnel of the military command and the Shanghai station of the Central Command, only a few peripheral personnel were caught, and the important one was not caught, Tu Feiyuan once suspected that it was an intelligence leak, and secretly conducted an investigation at the headquarters, and later caught a military commander agent, this agent confessed that the day before the Japanese took action, an urgent telegram came from Wuhan to tell them that Ding Mo Village had mutinied, they were no longer safe here, and immediately retreated, they retreated overnight that night, in fact, they did not go far, just opposite the original stronghold to watch them rush into Shanghai Station, so far Tu Feiyuan dispelled his suspicions about the inside.

"Let's stop for the time being," Qingqi sighed, Ding Mocun's rebellion alerted both the military and the central commanders, and made major changes to their respective secret service systems, and their actions became more secretive: "You concentrate your forces on the Europeans and Americans in Shanghai, especially the Americans and the Russians, in addition, the military observation groups of the US government in Xuzhou and Yucheng are in Xuzhou, they all have those activities, if you can get their report to the US government, it would be the best; And the Russians, Soviet Russia is our long-term enemy, why did the Battle of Yucheng suddenly have so many tanks? I suspect that it was given to them by Soviet Russia, and you have to check it too. ”

"Yes." Osawa bowed down and replied that he still had some clues about the United States, but not the slightest clue about Soviet Russia, but he couldn't say this: "I will definitely try." ”

"The government-in-exile of North Korea has moved in, so keep an eye out for what they do."

"Yes." For this, Osawa is the most methodical.

After Qingqi finished speaking, he let Osawa out, which is also the habit of agents, only this kind of broad mission is arranged as a third person's face, and confidential operations are arranged separately.

Osawa carefully pulled the door open, and heard the words of Haruhi inside: "Arai-kun, the ** general slaughtered the Japanese samurai in Yucheng, and we must retaliate." ”

Daze's heart suddenly tightened, revenge? Revenge on Zhuang Jihua? How to retaliate? Daze's words weighed on his heart like a heavy stone.

"European and American newspapers blow the **general as the ** Moses, he won three battles and three victories in Yucheng, Xuzhou, Nanjing, and was regarded as a national hero by the ** people, and the generals in Tokyo and Nanjing thought that eliminating him could hit the morale of the ** people and boost the wise among the ** people. Therefore, the General Headquarters of the ** Dispatch Army in Nanjing has formulated a plan of action aimed at eliminating the ** general, and the advance team will set off in three days, asking us to provide them with intelligence support. Qingqi said with a sneer.

Arai frowned, and sent a forward team, but this road is far away, if something happens on the way, this army will be finished, and the task will naturally be in vain, Arai shook his head after thinking about it and said: "Our intelligence officer has entered the Fifth Theater Command, although he can't get close to the ** general, but he can also find an opportunity, there is no need to send a forward team, just let them carry it out." ”

"No, it's not easy to break into the ** theater command, we can't let our spies be consumed in vain," Qingqi shook his head and said: "And I'm not optimistic about this operation, as far as I know, the ** general has escaped assassination several times, and against the Japanese Imperial Army, he can't be defenseless, in fact, it's difficult to make the ** general disappear, but it's easy to keep him from appearing on the battlefield." ”
