Chapter 248: Shirakawa Yoshinori Conference

The news that Li Tie was a member of the base-ground-organization shocked everyone present. Some of the generals present here may not be familiar with Li Tie.

However, there is no one in the Japanese military circles who does not know the name of this base-organization.

Since the day this organization appeared to the world, there has not been a single thing that has not been earth-shattering. The most important thing is that the victims of what they have done, all of them are Japanese.

And these victimized Japanese, the Japanese army was the most unlucky, and suffered the most damage. Therefore, the daimyo of the base-organization-organization can be said to be thunderous in Japanese military circles.

People usually joke and want to curse a person who must not die well, and often say that let him go out and meet the people of the base-place-organization-organization.

Now the information in the hands of the generals is exactly written that Li Tie is the person of the base-place-organization, and Li Tie is living well under the noses of everyone in Shanghai, can you not be shocked? ? Why don't you send someone to catch him soon? If I catch him, I will kill him with my own hands to avenge my loved ones who died in the Tokyo harbor incident. A rear admiral shouted excitedly.

"Is Li Tie so easy to be caught? He is now not only the richest man in the world, but also a British aristocrat, the largest foreign businessman in the United States, and has close cooperation with Germany and France.

Prior to today's meeting, we, the Japanese minister, had received a joint note from Britain, France, Germany, the United States, and Russia, and they wanted to do their utmost to protect Li Tie.

Even if we knew that Li Tie was an enemy of Japan, we would not be able to arrest him in Shanghai with great fanfare, but on the contrary, we would have to protect him, otherwise we would be misunderstood by these countries.

"Is this really unreasonable, is there still a royal law in this world? If the real murderer is not punished, is this still a civilized society? The rear admiral was excited. I forgot that they came to China like robbers to kill people and set fires.

However, the ministers of Britain, France, Germany and the United States came to protect Li Tie, and everyone can understand that Li Tie must have invested a lot in these countries.

But as far as I know, Li Tie doesn't seem to have any intersection with Russia, so why does Russia want to participate in this matter? An Air Force Major General asked.

Shirakawa Yoshinori also said helplessly: "You ask me, who am I going to ask?" "Actually, don't say that Shirakawa Yoshino doesn't understand, even Li Tie doesn't understand either, who would have thought that when Li Tie sent someone to give a gift to the American ambassador, the Russian ambassador happened to be there.

So the giver simply divided a gift in two, and one person gave one, and the Russian really did it after receiving the money. It is estimated that he also wants to take the opportunity to pat Li Tie's sycophants, hoping that Li Tie can also invest in Russia.

"Your Excellency, Commander, we have already determined that Li Tie is the person of the base-ground-organization. Then why not report his identity to other countries?

I believe that many countries will be interested in him and al-Qaeda, maybe as long as his identity is revealed, other countries can still agree to us to arrest Li Tie? "Another general made a suggestion.

"Don't daydream. We don't have any real evidence for all this, it's just speculation. We can deduce from various recent signs that Li Tie belongs to the base-place-organization.

Because although we have always assumed that Li Tie is a member of the base-place-organization, we have not been sure.

However, just last month, when Shiozawa Yuki made his first attack on Shanghai, his first foreign fleet was attacked by submarines when it retreated from the mouth of the Huangpu River, and two of our seriously damaged warships sank.

This reminds us of the fact that a year ago, our Tokyo seaport was attacked by unidentified mines and torpedoes, and more than a dozen warships were sunk, and at the same time, during the Tohoku Incident last year, our aircraft carrier Xianglong was sunk by a submarine of unknown nationality.

In addition, the sinking of the Spring Rain troop carrier earlier, the disappearance of 500 Black Dragon Gang members, and the shelling of the headquarters of the Tokyo Black Dragon Society, the Tokyo Harbor was burned. The troop carrier Summer Rain was sunk.

There are so many signs that the base-ground-organization-organization has a powerful submarine force, and almost every time the empire confronts Li Tie head-to-head, it will be retaliated against by the base-ground-organization. Therefore, we can be sure that Li Tie is a member of the base-ground-organization. General Yoshinori Shirakawa explained.

"But doesn't this mean that Li Tie has anti-aircraft machine guns and heavy artillery? Anyway, Shanghai is not a place where naval artillery can hit it, and it is a big deal that we can defeat the Chinese defenders without using the navy, and only the army and air force can defeat the Chinese defenders. A general said.

Shirakawa Yoshinori probably felt a little tired of dealing with so many people's questions by himself, so he motioned for Nanzo Yunzi to answer the question.

Nanzao Yunzi nodded, stepped forward and saluted, and said, "Generals, when our Kwantung Army occupied the northeast, especially when it occupied Shenyang, it was bombed by thirty bombers.

At that time, nearly 200 fighter planes were flown to Shanghai by Li Tie's Huaxing Aviation cadets, just a month ago. The two hundred fighters had been completely destroyed by the Royal Guard led by Hachiro Yagyu, but the Royal Guard was also wiped out as a result. And the murderer of the water to eliminate the Royal Guard is the Shanghai Axe Gang, and the Shanghai Axe Gang is under Li Tie's orders.

And now those thirty bombers are believed to be in Li Tie's hands, but I don't know where he is hiding? They have no shortage of pilots for Huaxing Airlines, which means that you are likely to be bombed by these thirty bombers when you attack the Shanghai defenders.

In addition, when the Kwantung Army occupied Shenyang last year, the Shenyang Arsenal was bombed, and the ruins of the arsenal have not been cleaned up to this day.

What's more, our agents who were hiding near the Arsenal at the time saw hundreds of vehicles take countless guns and ammunition from the Arsenal and disappear into the East China Sea.

Mr. Tsuchihara himself chased to the beach, where there were only about 300 cars that had been blown into scrap metal. And according to the information from our intelligence officers in the Northeast.

The Shenyang Arsenal has at least 120,000 rifles, 3,000 machine guns, 300 artillery pieces, and countless ammunition of all kinds.

Therefore, if Li Tie promised to give the Shanghai defenders 100 anti-aircraft machine guns and 200 heavy artillery, there would be no problem of payment at all.

In addition, he has very good relations with Britain, France, Germany, and the United States, and he is the richest man in the world. ”

"Which is so easy? Now that the sea off Shanghai has been completely blocked by our warships, Li Tie wants to bring in the arms, but it depends on whether our imperial navy agrees? An admiral shouted.

"But don't forget, the merchant ships of various countries are not subject to the inspection of our Imperial Navy, and the current Chinese customs are still in the hands of the British Navy, and with Li Tie's relationship with the British Imperial Family, he can borrow the ships of the British Navy to transport these supplies.

What's more, Chinese mainland is so big, with the strength of Huaxing Company, they can land on any coast and then transport it to Shanghai by car.

Let's not forget that Li Tieke easily blew up more than 300 cars, and he is a shareholder of Ford, the largest automaker in the United States, and we have reason to believe that he has many more cars. Nanzao Yunzi replied seriously.

"So what? There were less than 50,000 defenders in Shanghai, and a considerable number of them were recruits, and even if they had those weapons, they would not necessarily use them, and even if they could use them, they would not necessarily be able to fight accurately.

I don't believe that with our 100,000 men and so many planes, the artillery can't take out the remnants of their 50,000 men. A major army general said.

At this time, Shirakawa Yoshinori motioned for Okuma Saburo to reply to the general's question.

"Generals, please open the last page of the document, there is a photograph of the information obtained by Nanzao Yunzi at the risk of his life, this photo is a secret letter from Commander Chiang to the Shanghai General Commander.

The letter clearly expressed Commander Chiang's request for Chiang Guangnai to hold his position and wait for reinforcements to counterattack. The signature of the letter has been authenticated by the handwriting experts of the Imperial Intelligence Department and is the autograph of Commander Chiang.

Moreover, three days ago, Commander Chiang had sent an urgent telegram to the hundreds of thousands of troops in the south who were suppressing the bandits, saying that they should immediately send troops north to support Shanghai and prepare to launch a counterattack between the battles to capture the bandits.

And our intelligence officers in various units in China have also sent information, and now at least 200,000 troops have received this order to reinforce Shanghai.

In other words, it is likely that in a few days, the Chinese army will be overwhelming. "Saburo Okuma also trusts his own information.

"So what? As far as I know, they are in the midst of a war with the Chinese Red Bandits, and even if they want to withdraw, they have to see whether the Red Bandits agree or not.

What's more, the Chinese government now has an empty treasury, and they simply don't have the funds to fight this big war with us. "Another rear admiral raised questions.

Okuma Saburo said unhurriedly: "First of all, according to the information from our intelligence officers, for some unknown reason a few days ago, the red bandits suddenly relaxed their attack on the national army.

This gave the National Army a respite, and now they have pulled out part of the army and are ready to go. As for the funding of the National Government, we have confirmed it from various intelligence agents.

Just a few days ago, Li Tie had just given the Nationalist Government 30 million yuan in war funds, and at the same time, the Jiangsu-Zhejiang chaebols had collected another 10 million yuan in war funds.

At the same time, businessmen from all walks of life in Shanghai and China have also donated money one after another, and just yesterday they collected another 20 million yuan in military spending, which means that the current Nationalist Government is fully capable and confident of fighting a big war with us. ”

"Sizzle, that is to say, the current Chinese government, with money, people, and guns, is more determined to fight a big war." Hearing the Chinese government's determination to fight the war, everyone gasped.

Nanzao Yunzi, who was next to him, added again: "Since the attack on Shanghai for a month, because the Yangtze River shipping has been blocked, the interests of various countries have been seriously damaged.

Now the ministers have strongly urged us to stop the war, otherwise they will report to Congress and ask for troops to help China drive out our troops in Shanghai. ”

"Hmph, aren't these powers afraid that our Japanese family will monopolize Shanghai?" Said one of the generals.

"The problem now is that we can't wait for the Chinese army to hold talks, because that would show that we are not sincere and are forced to talk, which will only increase their arrogance.

Second, it will also bring the negotiations to an impasse, which is not conducive to our immediate interests. So my opinion is to start talks with the Chinese government immediately, and our goal is to make Shanghai an undefended city.

As long as the Chinese ** people are not stationed in Shanghai, when the time is ripe, we can still capture Shanghai at any time. Generals, the empire's economy has reached its limit, and now we have just occupied the northeast.

After this war, the situation in the northeast has basically stabilized. When Manchukuo is established, we will have the powerful resources of the northeast, and our empire will have a place to stay.

In order to realize the great dream of all-out war against China, and for the take-off of the empire, we, as emperors, have nothing to lose a little personal honor.

However, in order to demonstrate the strength of our Japanese soldiers, I will hold a powerful military parade on the day that the Chinese side agrees to sign it. We will demonstrate the strength of our Japanese Empire to all forces in Shanghai, and I would like to ask for your strong support at that time. ”

After speaking, Shirakawa Yoshinori bowed deeply to the generals present. The generals hurriedly got up and returned the salute.

Just as the conference room was bent over, Nanzao Yunzi couldn't help shouting in his heart: "These people have succumbed to it, the master is too experienced, and he can do everything without firing a shot." I love him even more. ”
