The Kanto Governor's Mansion is a Victorian-style building that occupies a large area. Japanese soldiers came and went, making it very lively. After a while, a group of officers entering and leaving suddenly stood at attention and saluted. A middle-aged major general led a group of colonels.

The officer appeared at the door.

"Stand at attention! Salute!" The guards on guard at the door raised their rifles in salute.

He Rui probably guessed that this was Major General Hamazura Matasuke, the chief of staff of the Kanto Governor's Mansion. He Rui couldn't help being surprised when he saw him coming to greet him at the gate in person.

This matter was a bit unconventional. When I was confused, I saw a Japanese captain behind Hamazura Matasuke. He was thin and wearing glasses. At this time, he had a smile on his eyebrows and nodded towards me with a smile. It turned out to be Nagata Tieshan. He Rui

It suddenly dawned on me.

He Rui and Nagata Tieshan rarely met, but communicated frequently. When he was admitted to the Japanese Army University, Nagata was still working as a military attaché in Berlin, Germany, and did not return to Japan until the beginning of 1914. As He Rui's reputation in Japan grew,

, Nagata Tieshan also became interested in He Rui's academic work, especially his appreciation of geopolitics. For this reason, he even made a special trip to the mainland to invite He Rui for a drink. However, this person was busy with work and rarely met. The two of them were mostly friends in the later period.

Exchange of letters.

In He Rui's impression, Nagata Tetsuzan was very different from ordinary Japanese Army soldiers. He was cunning and mercurial, and he had a lot of strategies but he also managed to keep his face low and flattering. He hooked up with Crown Prince Hirohito very early.

He has a wide network of contacts in the Japanese political and military circles, high EQ and IQ, and also has good military literacy and military theories. In He Rui's mind, this person is ranked number one in the Japanese Army.

Bang Mian then helped the major general walk to stand in front of He Rui. He Rui stepped forward to salute and said in Japanese, "Your Excellency, He Rui, salute your Excellency the major general."

Major General Hamazura Matasuke nodded, raised his hand in return, looked at He Rui up and down, and said with a smile, "I am Hamazura Matasuke. He Jun, your principal Kawai Cao is an old friend of mine. I wonder if he is now

You are in good health."

"I want to report to you that the principal is in good health," He Rui replied.

"Very good! Although I am in Kanto Prefecture, I have always heard of Mr. He's name. Hehe Cao actually wrote a letter to praise him. This is really rare." Major General Hamazura again helped He Rui reach out his hand and pressed He Rui's shoulder.

, He Rui stood at attention solemnly, motionless, and said with satisfaction: "What an outstanding junior, it's a pity that he is not Japanese!"

He turned around and said to a staff officer: "Go and prepare the car. I want to treat Mr. He to a drink!"

Translator Zhao whispered the conversation behind him to Major Liu and Xu Chengfeng. The two looked blank. Obviously, this situation was far beyond their imagination.

Not long after, the motorcade stopped outside a rather impressive Japanese restaurant, with the three characters "Kanto Maru" written on the signboard. The owner was already waiting at the door. He immediately stepped forward to help open the door and kept bowing to say hello.

Then everyone was ushered into the private room.

The private room is a Japanese-style banquet layout, with the main seat and two rows of tables next to it. Several Japanese women wearing heavy makeup and kimonos bowed deeply to greet them. The Japanese officers took off their shoes and walked in. Xu Cheng

Only then did Feng realize why He Rui wanted everyone to take a shower, burn their feet with hot water, and put on clean socks before setting off.

Major General Hamazura Matasuke sat down at the main seat, and He Rui sat at the head of the guest seat. Major General Hamazura Matasuke pointed to the captain sitting opposite He Rui, "He Jun, Nagata-kun is also an old friend of yours, today it will be like

It’s just like Japan, so you don’t have to be constrained.”

He Rui bowed to Tieshan Nagata before replying: "Xiaoguan has met Senior Nagata. Up to now, students from Lu University think that Senior Nagata is the pride of Lu University."

Major General Hamazura Matasuke smiled and said: "Nagata, everyone in the palace and the army have high hopes for you. Even people like He Jun respect you so much. Don't let everyone down."

Nagata Tieshan smiled and said to He Rui: "He Jun. I heard that you wrote a report to Minister Takahashi before returning to the country. Can you reveal the contents of the report?"

"Nagata-senpai is too polite. They are just some small suggestions, which are not worth mentioning. Professor Taira Fengsheng of the University of Tokyo and I wrote a situation analysis proposal to the Ministry of Finance. We predicted that before the end of the world war, Japan will transform from a debtor country to

as a creditor country."

"Oh?" Major General Hamazura Matasuke was slightly startled, but Nagata Tetsuzan just nodded, thoughtfully. The Japanese officers in the room were not as steady as Major General Hamazuke Matasuke, and some looked surprised. More

People were smiling, but they didn't dare to cheer loudly.

Seeing everyone's moved expressions, He Rui's heart moved. He used Nagata Tetsuzan's inquiry to make the content more interesting, "We suggested to Minister Takahashi in the report that Japan should focus on coordinating production capacity.

Professor Taira Fengsheng even repeated three times in succession, "Exit, exit, exit!" I was already preparing to return to China at that time, and I was worried that Professor Taira Fengsheng would be so excited when he personally delivered a report to Minister Takahashi. But Professor Taira Fengsheng still remained

Stubborn, he said that if he met Minister Takahashi, he would definitely argue with his arguments. The European war was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for Japan. If he did not seize this opportunity to expand industrial scale and revitalize national strength, it would be a pity for the rest of his life!"

He turned his head and looked around, looking at the officers who were applying for the application, and smiled: "If the production capacity increases rapidly, the trade volume will increase rapidly. As a result, Japan will obtain a large surplus, foreign exchange will flow in rapidly, and the navy and army's military budget will inevitably be large."

There’s room.”

Hamazura Matasukemoto originally just listened with a polite smile, but when he heard that military spending would increase, he was still moved, "I hope what Mr. He said can be realized."

, at this time, there was a slight click outside, the paper door opened, and the Japanese restaurant began to serve dishes. Various Japanese dishes were quickly placed on the small table, and Hamami helped the major general pick up the wine glass, "Gentlemen, who is visiting today?

, please join us in toasting East Asian unity!”

"Cheers!" everyone responded.

After three rounds of drinking, the door opened again. Four geishas in gorgeous clothes walked into the private room with small steps and bowed to greet everyone. Everyone knelt on the couch and leaned forward slightly to return the greeting. The geisha holding a Japanese shamisen knelt down.

Come down and pick up the dial. When the music starts, the other three people hold folding fans and start dancing in front of the table.

Japanese dance is about elegance, and the geisha's dance movements are not big, but they are calm and graceful. The officers could not take their eyes away, the banquet was almost in full swing, and some young officers were slowly becoming more and more dissolute.

He Rui was very experienced in this scene, and the level of geishas in Kanto Prefecture was far lower than that in Tokyo. He looked at it for a while, feeling bored, so he picked up the glass and took a sip, and took a look at Hamazuke Major General and Nagata Tetsu

Shan. He saw that both of them were watching the geisha performance, but they were thoughtful. When his eyes fell on Nagata Tetsuzan, Nagata Tetsuzan seemed to feel something and turned back to look over.
