Masao Kojima hurriedly explained to the brigade commander, Major General: The situation is far from getting worse to that point!

According to his analysis, the woman named Zhou Yi and the mysterious railway merchant Li Yan behind the scenes are most likely members of the Kuomintang Blue Coat Society, and they have either been active along the Nantongpu Road for a long time, or they have recently followed the southward footsteps of the Sena Division and arrived in Wencheng.

As for their sudden sights on Hirai Teriichi, there should be more coincidences.

"Kojima-kun, you don't need me to say more, you should understand the position and weight of Hirai Nakasa in this plan;" There was a hint of anxiety in Hagiwara's eyes: "I don't care if it's a coincidence or not, I will never allow similar situations to happen again in the future." Also, speaking of the Blue Coat Society, how powerful are they in Shanxi? ”

This question really stumped the head of the Bunjo secret service.

Previously, the Blue Coat Society organizations that the Kwantung Army cracked in Chahar and northern Jinbei captured some small people on the periphery of the core layer, and there was very little information that could be squeezed out of them. For this reason, Kojima Masao has sent letters to the heads of the secret services in Beiping and Tianjin, asking for relevant information and information on the Kuomintang Blue Coat Society in the local area, and he wants to dig out the veins of the Blue Coat Society lurking in Shanxi; But he has just started this matter, and so far, there has been no response from Beiping and Tianjin.

"Well, General, frankly, we really don't know what kind of power the Blue Coat Society currently has in Shanxi; However, since our intelligence agencies do not have the relevant inside story, it may just confirm that the Blue Coat Society in Shanxi is very weak and has few activities. ”

"Then how do you explain the two incidents that took place in Linfen and Wencheng? Is there a necessary connection between them? Is it the same organization? ”

Under the aggressive questioning of the brigade commander, Major General, Kojima Masao looked a little embarrassed, and he knew that Hagiwara Akira was a very tactically minded commander, which was very different from the rough and reckless martial arts of Wing Commander Kosuke Otsuka.

Perhaps seeing the other party's embarrassed look, Hagiwara Akira sighed and paced around the large office, not forcing Kojima Masao to answer immediately.

There was silence in the room for a long time, except for the sound of the brigade commander's leather boots, and then the rustle of the pendulum of a Chinese-style floor-to-ceiling mahogany table clock.

"Okay, I don't care if he's the Blue Coat Society or the Yellow Coat Society," Finally, Hagiwara Akira spoke again: "I just want them to never get close to the Wind Project, they can't get close to Hirai Teriichi, and they can't get close to Songjiagou - you know, Captain Hirai is about to start the next step of secretly recruiting comfort women." During this period, all people and things related to the Wind Project must be closely protected. This is the highest duty of you, the head of the secret service! ”

Masao Kojima immediately stood up and stood upright: "General, please rest assured, I will do my best to ensure the secret and smooth implementation of the Wind Plan!" ”

The brigade commander, Major General, looked at the head of the secret service in front of him with a glittering gaze, and after a while, he nodded: "Okay, Kojima-kun, I have always had high hopes for you, please don't let me down." Also, you have to get in touch with Yang Yaozu as soon as possible, and since the new members of the city hall have been allocated, let him, the mayor, take office as soon as possible. In Hirai Nakasa's plan to secretly recruit comfort women, there were many tasks that required the cooperation of the city hall. ”

Hearing this, Masao Kojima's heart was finally relieved: this is much easier than figuring out the inside story of the Blue Coat Society in Shanxi - the president of the Wencheng Industry and Commerce and the current president of the Wencheng Maintenance Association can't wait to sit on the throne of the mayor of Wencheng!

Leaving the Hagiwara Brigade Headquarters, Kojima instructed his men to drive the car directly to the city hall. He got out of the car at the front door of the city hall and asked the driver to drive the car back to the small building of the secret service, the Wencheng secret service, which was actually located at the back of the city hall building, and the two shared the same compound.

Yang Yaokang, the mayor who has not yet taken office, has already begun to work in the mayor's office at the city hall. During the reign of the Nationalist Government, he, the chairman of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry, repeatedly operated the position of mayor of Wencheng (vice mayor can also be used), but to no avail. Wencheng is a wealthy railway line city in the south of Jinzhong, and its population density and prosperity are not even inferior to Taiyuan, the capital of Shanxi, so successive mayors are often sent by the provincial government to take up their posts. Now, the Nationalist Government has run away, and thanks to the blessing of the Japanese, Yang Yaokang is finally going to get what he wants.

"What wind brought you here, Chief Kojima? Come with a big ride, and you will be disappointed! ”

Seeing that it was the head of the Japanese secret service who pushed the door directly and walked in, Yang Yaokang couldn't help but be surprised and delighted, and hurriedly got up and respectfully greeted him. Now it became clear to him that the leading figure in the occupied areas under Japanese rule was not a uniformed officer of the army, but a person who wore civilian clothes and held the title of head of a secret service.

"Mayor Yang, what day is the city hall set for its establishment?" Masao Kojima, who doesn't knock on the door, is also not greeting, and the topic is straightforward and straight to the point.

Yang Yaokang hurriedly took a thick paper-printed yellow calendar from the huge writing desk, flipped through it heavily, and said in his mouth: "Report to the head of the island, there are now three days as an alternative, but it is difficult to decide for a while, according to our Chinese yellow calendar, the opening often has to pay attention to——"

"Don't talk nonsense about those pedantic Chinese calendars!" Masao Kojima interrupted Yang Yaokang impatiently, which surprised the latter: "This is the city hall, not a trading firm, what is open or not!" Do you think you're about to become the president of the Chamber of Commerce? ”

Yang Yaokang's face turned white, and his body began to tremble secretly, he didn't expect that the little island chief, who had always been kind to him and paid attention to traditional Chinese customs, would be so rude and rude today! How did this traitorous puppet mayor know that the head of the secret service had just been scolded by his immediate boss, and that he had a large backlog of clueless worries.

Perhaps because he also realized that his attitude was a little excessive, Kojima Masao paused, calmed down his emotions, and took the paper-printed yellow calendar from the hand of the frightened Yang Yaokang, and among the three days marked by Yang Yaokang with a brush, he casually clicked on the closest day to today:

"Well, I think I'll just pick this day. The Imperial Army needs your town hall to be set up as soon as possible, so that it can start functioning - how can this big city be without parents for a long time! ”

Yang Yaokang turned from surprise to joy, but cold sweat was already flowing down his forehead: "Obey, island chief, there are still four days left, I will notify the people below and prepare for the inauguration ceremony of the new city hall." ”

Masao Kojima rolled his eyes: "The inauguration ceremony, you might as well make it more grand, and let the citizens see your own city hall cabinet!" ”

The puppet mayor was overjoyed, nodding his head busily like a hen pecking rice.

The announcement that the Wencheng City Hall was about to hold the inauguration ceremony was quickly posted on the walls of the streets and alleys of the city, and some of the people who maintained the meeting rang gongs and shouted notices along the streets.

One of the announcements was posted at the entrance of Yangliu Lane in the north of the city, and it was immediately seen by the people of the Second Intelligence Group of the Shanxi Station of the Military Command. Seeing the announcement was Liu, the elder of the radio station who went out to buy food, but at this time, he was the only one left in the house at No. 1 Yangliu Lane: Wang Suihua, the team leader, took Li Yan and drove out of the city to the dilapidated compound in the northern suburbs of Wencheng to greet the helpers sent by the 391st Regiment of the Central Army.

Through the military radio, Wang Suihua, a female major of the military commander, and the people of the 391st Regiment confirmed the location of the joint. At this time, in front of his beautiful female boss, Li Yan erected a long pole in the yard, which was tied together with several thick wooden sticks, and two red lanterns, one large and one small, were tied to the top of the long pole.

"The Lantern Festival has long passed, and now you are inexplicably erecting a lantern pole in the courtyard, are you not afraid of arousing the suspicion of outsiders?"

While doing it, the male lieutenant of the military commander questioned sullenly.

Wang Suihua was stunned, feeling that his subordinates were right, but what did this guy do earlier! Now that the report has been sent to the people of the 391st regiment, it has been agreed that the other party will find the courtyard joint to erect such a lantern pole.

"Why are you saying it now? The telegram was also typed out, and the lantern pole was erected! The female major of the military commander counted down in annoyance.

Li Yan smiled coldly: "When you and Lao Liu sent a report to the Central Army, I wasn't there, I know why did you agree with them?" You're not a big man, don't you know when to erect the lantern pole? ”

Wang Suihua, who was robbed of white, suddenly became angry, and at this time there were only the two of them in the courtyard, so she habitually pointed at each other with her fingers and reprimanded: "What kind of bastard are you talking about!" No matter how old I am, I don't look like you, who have already married and had children! Parents short of these rules, what do I know as a woman! ”

The reason why the female major of the military commander made such an agreement when she sent a telegram to the 391st regiment was because she saw countless families such as Wencheng and Fengdian erecting lantern poles in front of the door or in the courtyard during the Spring Festival, but there was no such dilapidated yard in the northern suburbs of Wencheng. She had an idea, and made this joint instruction on the radio with the personnel of the 391st Regiment who came to support. At this moment, looking at this area from a distance, the lantern pole that Li Yan had just erected was indeed particularly conspicuous.

"Tear it down! You said it very well, the festival is wrong, and the erection of the lantern pole is easy to arouse suspicion, and it will not be good if you attract the attention of the Japanese puppet spies. ”

After venting, Wang Suihua put away her temper and said calmly to her male subordinates.

Unexpectedly, Li Yan started a fire, he threw the shovel in his hand to the ground, and shouted angrily: "Aren't you tossing people!" On a cold day, I struggled to erect the pole, and you will tear it down again in a word! Am I your slave? Such disrespect for my labor! ”

In the past two days, Wang Suihua has noticed the change in Li Yan's attitude towards herself, and she is often sneering and even daring to speak ill of each other; The female major of the military commander was confused, and at the same time she was too lazy to gain insight into the psychology of her male subordinates, so she shouted in a low voice: "Shut up!" You are not my slave, but I am your commander! Now I order you, Lieutenant Li Yan, to remove the lantern pole immediately! ”

"Removed the lantern pole, the people of the 391st Regiment Special Service Company, where to find us!?" Li Yan almost roared and retorted.

Wang Suihua immediately looked around vigilantly, and then replied viciously: "Do you want to shout so that the whole world hears it?!" You have been to the 391st regiment, and you also know Zhao Mutou, the commander of the spy company, and today it was Company Commander Zhao himself who brought people over. After you dismantle the lantern pole, let me go out and walk around here until I receive Company Commander Zhao and his party! It's the same order, do it. ”

The male lieutenant of the military commander almost closed his breath in anger, he closed his eyes and let out a long breath, and when he opened his eyes again, he stared at the beautiful face of his female boss at close range, and said word by word: "Do you know that every time you bully and rectify me, I swear to do one thing to take revenge on you?" ”

"What do you do?" The female major of the military commander looked at each other's eyes and sneered coldly: "What can you do?!" ”

Li Yan thought about it, and finally swallowed back the words that came to his lips - one of the things I want to do is to strip you naked and press you to the bed and enjoy it fiercely.

"I'll do it, sooner or later!"

His eyes stayed on Wang Suihua's full chest for a moment, and the male lieutenant of the military commander said the second half of what was in his heart, and then he bent down to pick up the shovel and began to disassemble the lantern pole he had just erected.
