Chapter 482: Spies
PS: Thank you for the monthly ticket voted by the book friend "lx731209", and continue to ask for recommendation votes ^_^
You must know that most of those Class A and Class B war criminals are Japanese real power figures, and even those old guys who have taken a back seat still generally have a huge influence on the Japanese government and the opposition, how can they agree to send themselves to the gallows? Therefore, it is impossible for the Japanese to accept this demand, but Hu Weidong feels unwilling not to give these executioners the punishment they deserve, and once they are let go now, it will be difficult to overturn the case in the future, and even if the case is successfully overturned, it will also affect China's international credit, but if the peace talks are delayed because of this, China will not gain more than it loses, and it will also be unable to punish those war criminals. But just when Hu Weidong was in trouble, the prince, who had just asked Ying to infiltrate Japan on a spy mission, unexpectedly solved the problem
Previously, when the South Manchurian Column returned to the Changbai Mountains to restore its base area, because the Japanese army had been encircling and suppressing the South Manchurian Column with its absolute superiority, the prince, who was responsible for defending the column headquarters, had to follow the headquarters and constantly move around. However, their activities in South Manchuria successfully contained the main force of the Kwantung Army and created conditions for a major counteroffensive in the northeast battlefield, and Wang Zicai himself was honored to join the party because he used his ingenuity to save the South Manchurian column many times, and recorded his first-class merit once, second-class merit once, and third-class merit twice. After the Central Plains Field Army recovered the brigade, the prince returned to the old army. He became a battalion-level staff officer in the staff of the Central Plains Military Region.
Although he was promoted through meritorious service, he was quite unhappy about his failure to kill many devils and hated the Japanese to the bone. And after learning that due to the congenital deficiencies in the navy and the unfavorable international situation, China could not completely defeat Japan after all and had to hold peace talks with Japan, the prince was even more indignant. Knowing that he might not be able to kill devils on the battlefield in the future, the prince resolutely asked Hu Weidong to go to Japan as a spy, because in peacetime, only this post could continue to resist Japan
Hu Weidong knew that Yi Zicai's ability was enough to be a good spy, and he had long been trained rigorously, and he pretended to be a Japanese unless he met an acquaintance, no one would recognize him, and he was still in the development stage. The face changes quickly. As long as he hasn't seen him for a while, and his current skills are quite exquisite, even acquaintances may not recognize him. However, Hu Weidong was worried that the prince would be carried away by hatred and come into chaos after arriving in Japan and do stupid things that were not conducive to China's national interests. So I didn't agree at first. But under his bitter pleading. After all, Hu Weidong still relented, agreed to Wang Zicai's request, and bypassed the Japanese Communist Party and directly sent someone to contact Kato Qingyuan. Let them do the arrangement.
If Kato Kiyogen only talks about the assets in his personal name now, he has surpassed Konosuke Matsushita to become the richest man in Japan. Nissin Corporation's instant noodles and other instant foods have become a well-known brand and Japan's most important export, surpassing even raw silk, which has recently begun to be hit hard by nylon in the international market. In addition, Kiyogen Kato directly or indirectly controls at least half of Japan's burgeoning petrochemical industry, especially the plastics industry. At the same time, because both of these types of business have military uses, Kato Kiyogen has also become a guest of honor of the Japanese military, whether it is the army or the navy.
However, Kato Kiyogen himself knows very well, don't say it's him, even Konosuke Matsushita, who made his fortune earlier, is still not enough compared with Mitsui, Sumitomo, Mitsubishi, Yasuda, the four long-established chaebols, and people's personal property is not so obvious Just because the wealth is partially hidden, and the public is also diluted by many heads because of the huge family, but whether it is the total financial resources or the influence in Japan, it is by no means comparable to a cutting-edge entrepreneur like Kato Kiyomoto. This is also an important reason why Kato Kiyogen is sitting on a net worth of hundreds of millions of dollars, but he still does not dare to be a white-eyed wolf and try to get rid of the control of the Red Party.
The rapid development of red China in the past two years and the large-scale counteroffensive on the anti-Japanese battlefield made Kato Kiyogen feel awe, especially Hu Weidong, who gave him start-up funds and pointed out the two ways of making money for instant noodles and plastics, is even more of a god-like figure in Kato Kiyogen's eyes. Although the prince is young and only a battalion-level staff officer, he can make Hu Weidong greet him personally, which cannot be ignored by Kato Kiyogen, not to mention that the quality of the prince himself is already impossible to ignore, unless he deliberately hides himself
Although Japan in this era already had a perfect household registration system, due to the rapid defeat of the Kwantung Army, most of the Japanese immigrants from the puppet Manchu and Korea were trapped in enemy-occupied areas, not to mention, even those Japanese who were lucky enough to flee back to their homeland often lost a lot of things because of the hasty escape, and there were not a few who lost their identity certificates, plus there was a big entrepreneur like Kato Kiyogen who came forward, and it was not difficult to help him get an identity that people couldn't find fault, and the prince who pretended to be Kato Kiyogen's distant cousin also had a Japanese name. Sojiro Yamada.
At the request of Wang Zicai, Kato Kiyogen managed to send him to the Etajima Naval Academy, a famous naval academy in Shijie, but it took only three months for the prince, who had an IQ of 201, to easily rise to the second grade, and his beauty and outstanding swordsmanship were talked about by his classmates, and he quickly became a high-profile new star in the school. The prince, who has received an education as a secret agent, understands the truth that "the more dangerous the safer", and the more famous he is, the less people will doubt his identity. And maybe it was out of this mentality, but it was more likely that it was purely for revenge, and it didn't take long for the prince to do something that almost scared Kato Kiyogen out of a heart attack
Before entering the Etajima Naval Academy, Wang Zicai had the impression that the officers and men of the Japanese Navy were far less radical and impulsive than those of the Japanese Army, but after entering the school, he found that this had a lot to do with the strict rules of the Naval Academy. However, among the first-year freshmen, there were a lot of enthusiastic and impulsive people, and at that time, it was a time when the army was losing and retreating, and the Japanese navy and army had always been on the same page, so when the freshmen got together, they always sprayed wildly about the army's "incompetence and misguided country." However, Wang Zicai pointed out another problem of the army that everyone has been ignoring in a fierce denunciation, "The people of the whole country have saved so much military expenditure every year, but because of the incompetence of the army, it has been wasted, and now the empire owes countless foreign debts, and the Chinese are urging reparations, and the situation of the country has never been so difficult since the time of the Meiji Emperor." And those army horse manure obviously looted countless gold and silver treasures in China, but none of them were used to support the country, shouldn't these national thieves be killed? ”
Note 1: Those famous ace snipers in history were able to kill so many enemies, of course, because of their own excellent quality, but also because there was a stalemate at that time for them to play, and in the guerrilla warfare of movement warfare where troops need to be constantly transferred, sniper operations are difficult to use.
