Chapter 29 The Wealthy Merchants of Qingdao
In March 1942, under the leadership of Chen Shiyu, the General Staff Headquarters of the 115th Division held a reconnaissance work conference in Zhucang Village (present-day Linmu County) in Linyi
During Fang Xiao's tenure as reconnaissance staff officer of the Sixth Regiment and later as chief of the reconnaissance section of the Binhai Naval Region, although tremendous changes had taken place in the objective struggle situation, the guiding principles put forward at the meeting were still the basis for organizing reconnaissance work during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression
At this time, in the Binhai Naval District, where Chen Shiyu was the commander, we carried out espionage and construction work in Lianyungang (Xinpu), Linyi, Xin'an Town (now Xinyi), Qingdao, and other places, and set up intelligence stations in Lanshantou, Haitou, Rizhao, Xuejiadao, Linyi, Tancheng, Xin'an Town, Wharf, Niushan, Dunshang, and other places, forming an intelligence network that coordinated with each other and covering the enemy-occupied points in the whole region, and made preparations for the victorious march of the large-scale counteroffensive in the War of Resistance Against Japan
In the evening of that day, Yu Rongguang (formerly known as Jiao Jiguang), general manager of a maritime transportation company in Qingdao, held a banquet at his home, and his wife, Zhang Hua (formerly named Yuxiu), was busy receiving guests, and her younger brother's classmate Wang Guan ran to him in a panic and said: "The student procession surrounded the puppet police station, Zhang Hua did not listen to my advice, and also went to participate in today's demonstration......
Wang Guanzheng was talking Student Li Cai hurriedly came with a small flag to participate in the parade and asked her classmate's sister Zhang Hua to agree to let an injured female worker bandage her wound here Zhang Hua groaned and said, "Okay, I'll go upstairs for a party, you can leave as soon as possible after bandaging her."
Li Cai hurried out and carried Jiao Ling, a female worker who was injured by the pseudo-police, to the living room with the water Everyone saw that she was seriously injured and planned to go to the doctor Jiao Ling insisted on going back to the factory Li Cai bandaged her and said, "No, the streets are full of police, gendarmes, and spies, and you may be arrested."
Zhang Hua heard that the female worker was injured in order to save several students who had been beaten, and agreed to send her back in the family's car, so he kindly said to the girl: "Get in the car, be careful on the road" Zhang Hua took out a stack of banknotes and said to Li Cai: "She is so seriously injured, I'm afraid that she won't be able to go to work for a while, you buy two clothes on the way for her to change in, and then buy her some rice and medicine and other daily necessities."
Jiao Ling was very moved to take the banknote
After sending Jiao Ling to the car, he returned to the living room He learned that his brother-in-law was hosting a banquet today with the head of the Japanese spy Yoshiko Kawashima, and said angrily to Zhang Hua: "Sister, don't you think that your brother-in-law is changing day by day?"
"This ......," Zhang Hua explained to him, "Your brother-in-law has to contact this woman for the sake of the company's future."
At this time, Wang Guan, a classmate on the water, came down from the second floor, and when she saw the blood on the water, she was very frightened, and persuaded her: "You should not participate in those anti-Japanese activities that will be imprisoned and killed."
"Long-winded," said the surface disapplausively, "I would rather die in the War of Resistance than let such atrocities by the Japanese continue."
Crown's parents and uncle Dynasty, Boulevard and Woodland came to the banquet The public relations lady who came with her was beautiful I heard that Yoshiko Kawashima also came to the banquet today and wanted to hand over one of her subsidiaries to the "shipping" joint venture I couldn't help but say in amazement: "Yoshiko is not something that ordinary people can invite General Manager Yu is really a big face."
Yu Rongguang went downstairs to receive the guests Wang Chao is the deputy manager of the shipping company He introduced to Yu Rongguang and said: "This is Xiaolin's uncle and eldest brother Mr. Hayashi Economist has just come from Japan" Lin Di said politely: "General Manager Yu, please take care of me."
Then two more guests came, one was named Sanzi, who was Fangzi's cousin, and he was entrusted by the glory to go to Jinan to invite Fangzi to return; the other was the deputy commander of the commander of the Qingdao garrison, Eiji Nagano, and Isamu Watanabe, nicknamed the "four-eyed wolf"; As soon as he saw Yu Rongguang, he shouted: "I came to see you today and want to make friends with Mr. Yu."
"Third son" Yu Rongguang asked the third son, "When will General Fangzi arrive?"
Miko stumbled and said, "She has something important to do and can't come" The guests present were surprised Miko hurriedly explained to everyone: "General Yoshiko has sent a plenipotentiary representative Umeko Nakasa to be there soon."
Led the guests to the restaurant horizontally, Yu Rongguang stopped the third son and asked him, "What's going on?"
The third son said mysteriously: "Shangfeng summoned the main members of the secret service and issued a secret order with the word 'big' to quickly investigate the underground organization of the ** underground party in Qingdao's shipping industry" Yu Rongguang was shocked when he heard this
Seeing Yu Rongguang, Sanzi didn't believe that there was also an underground organization in Qingdao's shipping industry, and further told him: "Jinan has mastered a lot of real materials, Fangzi sent Meizi to Qingdao, in fact, to carry out the "big" secret order If you can help Meizi in Boss Yu, Fangzi will definitely treat you differently."
"General Manager, something happened in Dalian," Wang Jianxin, another deputy manager of the shipping company, hurriedly came and said to Rongguang, "In the early hours of this morning, all shipping companies and commercial ports in Dalian City were raided by the Japanese military police, and those who were caught carrying the holy embargo were shot on the spot."
Sanzi took the opportunity to say: "This is the 'big' word secret order and the beginning of the action, Qingdao is no exception, and it will be carried out immediately."
While he was talking, the puppet police chief and his wife Jing Tian rushed to the banquet surrounded by the powerful crowd, and the guests came downstairs to listen to him talk about the situation of the police being surrounded, and the puppet police chief said with a murderous face: "Today, they are considered to have done their prestige, and in the future, they will see my Yan's methods, and they will not be soft on the ground."
The men gathered together to discuss the battle situation, and Watanabe boasted: "The 'sweep' ahead is going well, and the Eighth Route Army has been driven away."
"Hehe" Lin Di sneered, "The Eighth Route Army has begun a full-scale counteroffensive, and the bureaucrats and generals only know how to make money and find a way back, how to win the battle."
"Presumptuous" Watanabe shouted after hearing this, "Beware that I will arrest you under the ground."
"Don't hurt your own people, don't hurt the ......peace," Wang Chao hurriedly persuaded him
The puppet police chief wanted to ask Yu Rongguang for advice, so he smiled and said, "Talk about your views."
Yu Rongguang smiled and said: "I think that there is always a victory or defeat in a war, and it may be an opportunity to do business, and this is the most important thing."
"Okay," Watanabe said with great praise, "Fighting is the same as doing business, and the team is gone, who will buy your bird account, the general manager, let's be a senior staff member of our army."
"This ......," Yu Rongguang said with a smile, "I'm a businessman, but I don't have that ability."
Everyone was talking very warmly, and the third son accompanied the plum from Jinan to the living room, and he introduced to everyone: "The plum is the think tank and high staff of General Yoshiko."
"This ......" everyone looked at each other
