"Ikeda-kun, I'm sorry." Sakata is not used to life in China, it is cold, damp, and has some gastrointestinal discomfort.
"Sakata-kun, your face is not very good, are you sick?" Seeing Shigeramoto Sakata's pale face, Masao Ikeda was taken aback.
The refugee camp in this city is suffering from a "plague", and if a Japanese soldier is infected at this time, the problem will be tricky.
"It's okay, I'm just a little uncomfortable." Shigemoto Sakata shook his hand.
"Went to the doctor?"
"I've seen it, the winter in Nanjing is too cold, I wear so much, I still feel that the cold wind drills into the body, and my stomach has not been very good, so I look very bad." Shigemoto Sagata explained.
"Then Zuo Fangjun should take care of his body, we will have to stay in Nanjing for a while." Masao Ikeda said it nicely, but in fact there was some schadenfreude.
"By the way, Ikeda-kun, you've been tracking down 'Yaksha', can you tell me about it?" Sagata Shibomoto is here today to ask for advice.
Of course, he can't help it, he, the head of the secret service, has been in office for several days, and he hasn't made any achievements at all, and he is a little dissatisfied.
Masao Ikeda didn't have much to do, but he was at least working hard.
It's much better than him staying in the secret service every day and not going out.
"What clues does Sakata-kun have?"
"I didn't have any clues yet, so I took someone to the Shimonoseki Pier to check the scene of our hijacked ship. By the way, I went around the river. Sakata Shibomoto said.
"Sakata-kun has something to gain?"
"A little bit." Shigemoto Sagata is here today to ask for advice. The natural posture should not be too high. Speaking of which, the secret services and the gendarmerie command should cooperate and compete.
"Oh, tell me about it?"
"I think that the Yaksha hijacked our ship that night did not go to Jiangbei, nor did it go up the Shuojiang River, and the Chinese navy laid mines in Madang, and if they did not guide them, they would have triggered the mines. But our intelligence services did not find any traces. ”
"What do you mean by Sagatata-kun, it's likely that they went downstream?"
"Our warships are densely packed downstream, if you pass, then you won't be trapped?" "So I speculate that they must have hidden the ship somewhere we don't know, and this place must be connected to the Yangtze River waterway, and there is also a dock to dock." ”
"But how can we find it, it has been four days, even though there are traces. It's hard to find! ”
"Although a heavy snowfall helped them, it was a cold winter. People are reluctant to go out, and once the snow melts, these traces will naturally be revealed? ”
"It's difficult, even so, I'm afraid it will be difficult to find it then, I've fought against the Yakshas, they are a well-organized and decisive team, so far, we don't have any useful clues on our hands."
"I heard that the gendarmerie had a fire with Yaksha that night, didn't they catch a single one alive?"
"No, not even a single corpse left!"
"It's amazing, in such a situation, you can still take the corpse of your companion and retreat calmly, this is really a terrible opponent."
"They attacked the port first, broke out later, according to common sense, they should have withdrawn from the city a long time ago, but why did they stay?"
"That's what I find strange." Masao Ikeda was also puzzled.
"The Tokyo Protection Corps will arrive in Nanjing the day after tomorrow, and the chief of staff of the Rice Edict has ordered you and me to be responsible for the security work, and there must be no such thing as what happened at the Loyal Spirit Sacrifice." Sagata Shigeramoto said, this is the second purpose of his visit today, to convey the order of the chief of staff of the Rice Edict.
"General Sasaki was assassinated, Nanjing is no longer safe, why did the Tokyo Protection Group come to Nanjing?" Masao Ikeda was a little angry and puzzled.
He felt that the intelligence work of the "Yaksha" was very powerful, especially in the city of Nanjing, in such a dangerous situation, if something happened to the Tokyo Protection Regiment, how would the dispatch army headquarters explain to the base camp?
Why don't you stay in Shanghai for two more days and come back later?
"It's not up to you and me to decide, it's said that the head of the protection regiment made a decision personally." As the head of the secret service, Shigeramoto Sakata was better informed than Masao Ikeda, the commander of the gendarmerie.
"Bastard!"
"Ikeda-kun, we are soldiers, and the duty of a soldier is to obey orders, and for the victory of this holy war, you and I can both be sacrificed, this is our highest honor!"
"Of course I know, but I know the danger, but I want to come, where are they putting the lives of the Imperial soldiers?"
"Ikeda-kun, the secret services are good at intelligence gathering and counter-espionage, and security is still the specialty of your gendarmerie, so please bother more."
"Sakata-kun, we don't even know who our enemies are or where they are, how can we guard against them?" Masao Ikeda asked.
"I've heard that Ikeda-kun was once suspicious of someone, right?"
"Sakata-kun even knows this?"
"Of course, what if I told you that the person you suspect is still alive?" Sakata Shimoto said slowly.
"Alive, what do you mean?"
"There are also imperial intelligence agents in the provisional government of Wuhan in China, both the military and the central government, although there is no close to the core secret, but they have all found some information, the military command has a secret connection with the Yaksha, and there are members of the military command in the Yaksha, for the officer you suspect in the Zhina, Leng Feng may be in the Yaksha, and it is very likely to be the core figure." Shigemoto Road.
"You know this, why didn't you say it sooner?"
"This information has not been confirmed, and the information and related information about the Yaksha are listed as top secret by the military command of China, and only a few people within the military command can contact it, and our people are not of enough level to know the details!"
"What about the information about the cold front?"
"In addition to finding out that he has recently studied at the Central Army Military Academy, the others are still investigating." Shigemoto Road.
"How long will it take?"
"It's hard to say, many parts of the country are still wild. So. Hard. However, this Leng Feng was able to enter the Central Military Academy of the Army, which they regarded as the highest military academy, and it should not belong to the kind of place that could not be found, so it would not be too long. ”
"It won't be too long, how long?"
"Half a month, I can only give you an approximate time, after all, if we only know that his hometown is in Wenzhou, Zhejiang, we don't know anything else." Shigemoto Road.
"Please Sakata-kun as soon as possible!"
"Serving the Empire, how could I not do my best?" Sakata Shimoto bowed his head slightly. "Ikeda-kun, farewell!"
"Call Ono-kun here!" Masao Ikeda pressed the telegram on his desk and summoned his orderlies to order.
"Hay!"
"Ono-kun, I'll give you a mission......"
"Your Excellency Ikeda, this task is too large, and I am afraid that there will be no results in the interrupted time?" After listening to this, Ono groaned slightly.
"No matter how long it takes, we can't lose to the people of Shimoto Sakata, understand?"
"Hay, Ono understands!"
Early morning of December 26th. The Japanese army's logistics and epidemic prevention troops drove into the security zone and began to disinfect the refugee camp in the security zone.
The Security Zone Committee also vacated the North Building of Jinling University. After disinfection, as a quarantine area, the first patients suspected of being infected with the epidemic began to move in.
The security zone organization hired 200 medical workers, half male and half female, and 100 quarantine area safety officers.
The Japanese army provided a batch of protective clothing, as well as masks, armbands.
Once the epidemic is epidemic, it will not be a good thing for the Japanese army, and the Central China Front has also allocated some protective materials from Shanghai, such as masks, ordinary gas masks, etc.
Villa No. 5 Ninghai Road, headquarters of Nanjing International Security Zone.
"I need more doctors, but I don't need Japanese doctors." Mr. Rabe quarreled with Tanaka, the secretary of the Japanese embassy who had come to mediate.
The Japanese, of course, want to take this opportunity to penetrate deep into the safe zone and have some control.
"Why, Mr. Rabe, aren't our Japanese doctors worse than your European and American doctors?"
"No, I didn't mean that, and I myself did not discriminate against Japanese doctors, but your killing in Nanjing, these Chinese will not accept the help of Japanese doctors." Rabe said solemnly.
"Chinese should understand that we are here to help them......" Tanaka's defense was very weak.
"What would you do if I killed your relatives and told you that I was here to help you, Mr. Tanaka?"
"The Yamato and Germanic peoples are the best peoples in the world, and they cannot be treated the same as the Chinese people, they are only worthy of being inferior!" Behind Tanaka, a Japanese second lieutenant military attache snorted angrily.
"What did you say, second lieutenant?"
"Kakugi-kun, step aside!"
"Mr. Rabe, since there is an epidemic, the Empire has a responsibility to ensure the safety of all the people in the occupied territories, so there is no reason for you to refuse the help of Japanese doctors."
"Well, since Mr. Tanaka insists, then I have nothing to say, you have a gun in your hand, but your doctor is in, and we are not responsible for safety."
"Bastard!"
"Mr. Rabe, doctors are not soldiers, they are here to save people, they should not be treated like this?"
"How do I know who the doctor you sent is?"
"So, we can send soldiers to keep the doctor safe?"
"Mr. Tanaka can try, if it leads to a bloody conflict, I'm afraid it won't be good for both sides?" Rabe is also very tough.
"Mr. Rabe, you have to understand that as an international security zone, the empire will not recognize it!" Tanaka's eyes showed a fierce light.
"Okay, wouldn't it be easier for you to put your machine guns and cannons on the rack, just like you did the night before yesterday in front of the Schweiss Memorial and kill all of us?"
"Mr. Rabe, isn't that the attitude an ally should have?" Tanaka's angry cheek muscles twitched, and it was clear that he had underestimated the will of Rabe and the others.
Since the massacre in the security zone, how the Japanese deceive, threats are useless, except for a few Chinese, they have become united.
It's all death anyway, so why don't you get up at the regimental level and fight for that glimmer of life?
Tanakara thought that a threat would force Rabe to agree to let the Japanese soldiers enter the quarantine zone, but unexpectedly, he hit a nail.
Rabe's attitude was unprecedentedly tough, and he was clearly not afraid of any intimidation or threats.
I can only walk away! (To be continued.) )
