Chapter 074: I'm just here to play

The convoy soon arrived at the headquarters of the Japanese Army in Shanghai at No. 6 Chongming Road, Shanghai. The car stopped in front of the building, Muyang and Jiang Tengdao got out of the car, walked out of the building, and observed all the way, but did not find anything suspicious, Muyang relaxed a little.

Muyang's question, Etojima didn't have an answer, he just received an order to come to No. 76 to pick up Kurita Akitsune, it seems that he can only ask Tsukada Attack Chief of Staff in person.

Walking through the slightly silent corridor, Muyang and Jiang Tengdao stopped in front of the wooden door of a room, Jiang Tengdao raised his hand and knocked three times, and heard a slightly hoarse voice from inside and said: "Come in."

Jiang Tengdao opened the door and walked in with Muyang, who found that it was a spacious office, with several large bookcases on one side and a large desk in front of it, with many documents neatly stacked on the table, as well as telephones, desk lamps and other items.

On the other side is a set of leather sofas and coffee tables, which are supposed to be used by guests.

Behind the desk, a man about 50 years old with eyes was looking at Mu Yang, Mu Yang stepped forward and bowed slightly, and said, "Hello Your Excellency General Tsukada Tsukasa, I'm Kurita Shotsune." ”

Muyang still knows some of these rules, even if he is a royal family, others have a respect for the royal family in their hearts, but the relationship between superiors and subordinates, if the gap is too big, they can't take Qiao indiscriminately.

Tsukada stood up with a smile, walked out of the desk and came to Muyang, the short man made him look up slightly when he looked at Muyang, with a warm smile on his face, and said, "Maybe you don't remember, in fact, I have seen you." ”

Mu Yang was slightly surprised, but he didn't show it, but his face showed a thoughtful and doubtful expression in a timely manner, and he did it very well, that is, it was neither exaggerated nor pretentious.

"When your brother His Royal Highness King Sheng Hou held a big wedding, I had the honor to attend the wedding ceremony and met you at the ceremony, you were only 16 years old at that time, but your appearance has not changed much, but you are much taller." Tsukada said in the tone of an elder.

Mu Yang secretly breathed a sigh of relief, this is a preliminary pass, as long as he deals with it carefully in the future conversations, and doesn't show any horses, it's no problem.

"At that time, I was still young and ignorant, and it was my honor to meet His Excellency General Tsukada again today." Muyang was neither humble nor arrogant, but respectful and polite, showing that he was highly educated and educated in royal etiquette.

"Let's stop standing and talking, come and sit here." As he spoke, he led Muyang to the sofa and sat down.

Tsukada looked at Etojima and said, "Eto-kun, you go down first, and let the secretary make a pot of good tea." ”

"Yes, Your Excellency Chief of Staff, Your Excellency Kurita, Eto has taken his leave." After nodding goodbye to Muyang, Etojima left the room.

"His Royal Highness Kurita ......"

"You're welcome, just call me Kurita." Muyang said.

Tsukada nodded with a smile and said, "Kurita-kun came to China this time, is there something wrong?" ”

There is a reason why Tsukada asks like this, Kurita Akitoshi is not an ordinary person, removing his identity as a major commander of the army headquarters, he is the son of His Excellency General Minoru King of Higashikure Palace, as a high-ranking general of the empire, he is still very clear about the history of the Higashikure family.

Prince Asahhiko, the fourth son of the prince of the Fushimi Miyakuni family, founded the Kurenomiya and was named the prince. If this Prince Asahhiko of Kurenomiya is not famous, then his younger brother should be very famous, Prince Zaihito Kanin, who used to be the chief of the general staff of the Japanese army.

And Prince Asahita of Kurenomiya has several children, and he is even more notorious in the history of anti-Japanese resistance, and it was his eighth son, King Hatohiko, who caused the Nanjing Massacre. The four sons, King Kunihiko of Kurenomiya, King Morimasa of Rimotonomiya, King Hatohiko of Asakanomiya, and King Minoru of Higashikurenomiya were all generals.

And this Kurita Akitsune was born in such a family, the third son of King Minoru of Higashikure Palace.

Such a person, such a royal family, came to China, with Tsukada's understanding, it is likely to be purposeful, for them, the old people who take care of the situation, there is no such thing for no reason, and His Excellency King Minoru Higashikunomiya will not let his children run to China casually.

"I'm just here to have a visit, for so long, my father has been fighting in China, and I'm curious about why the empire has such a strong force and hasn't conquered China yet." Mu Yang replied seriously.

"The people below reported that His Highness bought a lot of tea and silk, and went to many dance halls and tobacco houses in Shanghai, and it seems that His Highness likes these Chinese things very much." Tsukada said with a smile.

Mu Yang was also slightly surprised, the Japanese intelligence ability is really strong, only in such a short time, their whereabouts in the past two days are estimated to have been found out.

"I just think it's funny, these things are far worse than the things of our Great Japanese Empire, it's just a comparison, a fresh picture." Mu Yang replied.

"Then Kurita-kun came over this time, does His Excellency King Minoru know about it?"

"I don't know, I came here secretly after I asked for leave from the War Department, by the way, you won't ask the War Department to verify my identity, will it cause trouble, if you let my family know, I will be punished." Mu Yang showed a slightly nervous look on his face and looked at Tsukada Tsukasa.

Tsukada Ken smiled slightly: "Not yet." ”

At the beginning, Tsukada did think about verifying Muyang's identity with the War Department, but when the secretary was about to leave the office, he stopped him again, and Tsukada thought a lot, especially thinking that Kurita Akitsune was likely to come to China with a mission secret, which was likely to involve other things, even the affairs of the imperial family, if he reported it and ruined their plan, then he would be ruthlessly crushed to death.

Speaking of which, Tsukada was born in the General Staff Headquarters, and he can be regarded as a general of the East Kyure Palace, otherwise he would not have attended the wedding of the son of King Minoru of the East Kyure Palace.

For the understanding of the military department, these officers are more profound than outsiders, although the imperial family holds all the power, but when it comes to application, it still needs to rely on these generals, and now Japan is a society completely controlled by the military, and the Higashi Kure family is the top and most powerful branch in the military department.

"Kurita-kun, China is very chaotic now, there are battlefields everywhere, and the Central China Front launched a new round of battles in order to open up the Pinghan, Guangdong-Hanzhou, and Hunan-Guizhou railways, so that they can form a mainland communication line to Vietnam and Singapore, and make contact between the base camp and the lone army in the South Pacific."

"And here in Shanghai, elements of the Kuomintang and the Communist Party frequently try to sabotage, and even carry out assassination operations against our senior generals, sabotage our operation to transport antiques and cultural relics to the island, so it is very unsafe here, and I don't know when Kurita-kun will return to Japan."

Muyang thought for a while and said, "I think I'm going back soon." ”

If something happens to a royal family on their own turf, then they are really to blame, and it is good to resign, since Kurita Akitsunei is willing to go back, no matter what the reason, it is what Tsukada Tsukasa is willing to see.

"If that's the case, there will be a ship back to Japan tomorrow. And, tomorrow I will go back to the dock to His Excellency General Kotaro Nakamura. Tsukada said.

Mu Yang was shocked, "Your Excellency General Kotaro Nakamura?" ”
