Chapter 189: The Big Mess
The route has been studied for a long time, there are ruins everywhere, there are not many pedestrians, there is no need to worry about being seen, Shen Long sneaked back to the hotel where he stayed under the cover of night, and used the somersault cloud behind the hotel to return to the room, and soon after entering, Albert Nairy came in with the American army.
"Mr. Corleone, something unfortunate has just happened, and I have been ordered to keep you safe, and it is best not to go out easily these days unless it is necessary." The U.S. military major said solemnly.
"What happened?" Shen Long pretended to be ignorant and said, "I really want to hear that there are cars passing by outside. ”
"Those damned little Japan, not resigned to defeat, they even tried to assassinate General MacArthur." "General MacArthur was struck in the shoulder, and your friend Rockefeller III died," said the major, full of indignation. ”
"Oh my God!" Shen Long's mouth grew up, and his face was incredulous, "I have to tell the Rockefeller family the news, who did it?" ”
Killing Rockefeller III, but keeping MacArthur's life is also his deliberate, for him, killing MacArthur is not difficult, after the war the Japanese behaved relatively docile, MacArthur's precautions for travel are not very strict, but if he is killed, the future war will have to change a commander, which will greatly affect Shen Long's foresight, and the historical information he has will lose its effect, which is not in Shen Long's interests.
The death of Rockefeller III will not have much impact on this war, and it will also cause certain losses to the Rockefeller consortium, knowing that it is not easy for a family to cultivate an excellent successor, and his death will weaken the influence of the Rockefeller consortium.
Although the cooperation between Shen Long and the Rockefeller Consortium is very harmonious now, he knows that this is only a temporary phenomenon, and with his development in the future, the Rockefeller Consortium will consider dealing with him sooner or later, and it is always good to weaken the enemy before that; And more importantly, Rockefeller III was the representative of the friendship between the United States and Japan, and people like this can be killed by the Japanese, which is undoubtedly a huge blow to the United States-Japan relations that are now being relaxed.
It is estimated that it is difficult for Rockefeller III to know that in the future, the Japanese will buy the Rockefeller Building, the symbol of their family, right? Now that he's dead, there's no need to be depressed about it.
"Based on the sound of gunfire, our soldiers searched the home of Nobusuke Kishi, a Class A war criminal, and found the guns used in the assassination, as well as some correspondence between war criminals, which showed that they seemed to be planning some kind of conspiracy." The major knew that Shen Long's identity was not simple, so he didn't hide too much news, and more importantly, he wanted to explain to the Rockefeller consortium through Shen Long's mouth, after all, their heir died under the protection of the US military stationed in Japan, and the Rockefeller consortium would definitely not take a break.
"If I'm not mistaken, Nobusuke Kishi seems to have been released by order of His Excellency the General, which is really ......" Shen Long shook his head, and the major was also embarrassed, Nobusuke Kishi had not been out of prison for a few days, and he had taken action against the person who released him, which made MacArthur very angry.
"Well, I can't say anything about politics, but it reminds me of the farmer and the snake in Aesop's Fables." Shen Long said, "Maybe we can learn from this story; Okay, I'm going to contact the Rockefeller family. ”
Shen Long dialed George's phone, "George, I'm sorry to bother you at this time, I just received an unfortunate news, Mr. Rockefeller III has just been assassinated......"
"Oh my God, that's a ...... It's terrible, I have to report it right away; Fredo, if you have any news these days, you'd better tell me right away......" George was also shocked.
At the same time, the U.S. military and Rockefeller III's attachés also transmitted the news back to the United States through their own channels, and major newspapers such as the New York Times and the Washington Post immediately changed their front pages to convey the news to all Americans.
In Japan, MacArthur was furious, the injury on his shoulder was not too serious, but this assassination was like a slap in the face, he just released the war criminals on the front foot, and they assassinated him on the back foot, and also killed the core heir of the Rockefeller consortium, no matter from that point of view, MacArthur had to react.
The U.S. troops stationed in Japan broke into the homes of one war criminal after another, and they did not let go of any of the correspondence with Nobusuke Kishi, who had just come out of prison and went in again, and the letters forged by Shen Long can be said to be seamless, and the handwriting on them was all their own, and how could these people have a good impression of the U.S. troops stationed in Japan, and they have issued a lot of complaints in private, and some people have spoken out these complaints in order to get rid of their crimes, and then more people have been involved.
For a time, the whole of Japan was in chaos, and all the war criminals on the list were terrified; The Rockefeller consortium reacted with the media resources at their disposal lashing out at the lax treatment of war criminals, and some politicians saying that they must be punished in strict accordance with the trials of the Far Eastern Military Tribunals.
Gangcun Ningji and other war criminals who had just been sent to Japan by Chang Kaishen were also arrested, and now MacArthur and the US military stationed in Japan simply hate these war criminals.
Perhaps in the future, as the international political situation changes, the situation of these people may change, but for now, they can only obediently stay in prison.
Shen Long pretended to visit MacArthur, his face was full of sympathy, but his heart was happy, if you hadn't released those war criminals, why would there be what happened now, this is all your own doing.
"Your Excellency General, I am relieved to see that you are recovering so quickly." Shen Long's words are sincere, if he is too seriously injured, it will definitely affect the status of the commander of the US forces stationed in Japan, and it is just right to suffer a small injury like now.
"This thing just sucks!" Not only did this lead to the injury of MacArthur and the death of Rockefeller III, but more importantly, it turned the policies he had adhered to into a joke.
After comforting for a while, Shen Long said goodbye, "Your Excellency General, my affairs in Japan have been almost dealt with, and I will go to Xiangjiang to deal with business next, so when I come to Japan next time, we will meet again!" ”
It was already 1949, and it was very close to the time of Chang Kaishen's rough mainland, and Shen Long wanted to see what was going on with the smuggling channels in Xiangjiang.
