Li Yuanqing revealed the truth with just four words about something that he couldn't figure out himself.
No wonder Yosuke Yamaguchi had to die.
Because he is a member of Prince Yoshihito of Chichibu Palace.
This Yamaguchi Yosuke, whose real name is Mouri Usamaru, was the one who planned the kidnapping case.
Why was this kidnapping planned?
Of course, the purpose is to embarrass the current people in power and make them unable to step down.
Indirectly caused harm to Emperor Hirohito.
It is certain that there are other planners behind Yosuke Yamaguchi.
For example, the information of later generations shows that Yamashita Fengbun.
There are others who have not been exposed.
They are all supporters of Yong Ren, but no one has come forward. Instead, they are secretly planning and silently promoting the plan to replace the emperor...
etc.
Zhang Yong suddenly thought of something.
It seems that I can make up a civet cat plan? Specifically targeting Yong Ren?
The civet cat for the prince, as the name suggests, is to replace Hirohito with Yongren.
This is not groundless. It is based on facts.
After the unconditional surrender of the Japanese invaders, MacArthur was once ready to replace Hirohito with Yong Ren. However, Hirohito bowed his head decisively and admitted his mistake. His posture was very low. MacArthur finally let him go and continued to make him emperor. Yong Ren was disappointed and
Gui. He died inexplicably in the end.
Some sources say he died of poisoning. Others say he died in depression.
All in all, it was an abnormal death.
Was he murdered? There is no evidence.
But combined with China's five thousand years of history, there must be something fishy.
All battles involving the throne are bloody and bizarre. No one may ever know the truth.
Okay, I can make up something again.
Who was the mastermind behind this exchange of civet cats for princes? Of course it was MacArthur!
I just moved the time forward ten years.
I'm sure Lao Mai won't have any objections either. Everyone recommends him as the number one famous foreign military general. How can he have any objections if he takes the blame?
Of course, a name like the Civet Cat Project would definitely not work. It sounds like it was given by the Chinese.
It needs to be renamed. For example, the Iris Project. Or the Cornflower Project or something like that.
"You're weird?"
"What's weird?"
"Why do I know the name Mouri Usagimaru?"
"really."
"He had been fooling around in the concession for a while before. I personally arrested him. Of course I know."
"I see."
"please."
"Thanks!"
Zhang Yong led his team out of the concession.
Li Yuanqing looked at his retreating back and nodded thoughtfully.
Courtesy reciprocity.
Since Zhang Yong has given Hong a lot of benefits, then Hong will naturally do his best to help him.
Be a friend...
It just so happened that the information about Mouri Usagi was what Zhang Yong needed.
If he is willing, he can do a lot of things along this line.
It depends on whether Zhang Yong can catch it.
Here, Zhang Yong led the team and returned to the dock smoothly.
The work of dismantling the cotton bundles is still going on. It was an all-nighter last night and the disassembly is not finished yet.
However, Zhang Ping had dispatched manpower from the air force base to pack the oceans that had been cleaned up before, packed them in boxes, and transported them back by truck. Basically, they were all shipped.
Zhang Yong did not see the mountains of ocean, but his mood was not affected.
As expected, out of sight is out of mind!
After learning that Zhang Yong was back, Zhang Ping came out immediately.
He barely slept last night. He still has two big circles under his eyes.
"Shao Long."
"Have you finished counting them all?"
"about there."
"good."
Zhang Yong nodded.
I didn’t ask for specific numbers. I was worried that I would be stimulated again.
Although there is a bottom line of 100,000 US dollars here, it is a huge loss after all! Xuan Tiewu didn't see it himself...
Who knows, Zhang Ping has already reported excitedly:
"Three hundred and fifty thousand!"
"Three hundred and fifty thousand!"
"Shaolong, do you know? It's a total of 350,000 oceans!"
Zhang Yong: "Uh..."
Don't repeat it, okay? I'm very hurt, okay.
Thinking hard, it seems that I have earned one hundred thousand US dollars. One hundred thousand US dollars is a little more than three hundred and fifty thousand oceans. A little more...
Only then did he gradually control his emotions and pretend as if nothing had happened.
"I've already reported it."
"oh……"
"Minister Min is very happy. He reported it to Madam in the morning. Madam is also very happy."
"oh……"
"In the afternoon, Madam and Chennault will fly to Longhua Airport."
"oh……"
"This huge sum of money is just for Chennault to see and make him believe that we are able to pay the salary."
"How much does Chennault make?"
Zhang Yong asked curiously. There is information from later generations, but he has forgotten it.
Anyway, the salary is quite high. All the American pilots hired have very high salaries. They are three times that of Chinese pilots.
If Chen Shanben earns 50 oceans a month, then the American pilot earns 150 oceans.
150 oceans a month, 1800 oceans a year.
For ten pilots, the cost is 18,000 oceans a year. It is still very expensive.
The Air Force is really a very expensive branch.
Not only are planes expensive, pilots are also expensive. Training costs are also expensive.
The navy's battleships are expensive, but its labor costs are not that high. Except for navy carrier-based aircraft pilots, who are also considered pilots.
Training pilots is much more difficult than building airplanes. Especially skilled pilots are "filled" with gasoline. It also takes a very long time. It cannot be achieved overnight. The more you fly and the longer the time, the more you will naturally become.
skilled.
At the end of World War II, the Japanese invaders and Germany still had airplanes, but they couldn't find enough pilots.
The pilots trained previously have all been used up. Newbies have difficulty even flying a plane into the sky. Let alone fighting. If they get up there, they will be slaughtered.
The Japanese invaders had already made this very obvious in the Pacific battlefield and in the Mariana air battle.
He was completely beaten passively. He didn't even have the strength to parry. There was no need to talk about the strength to fight back.
That was still June 1944!
Before the war was over, the Japanese carrier-based aircraft pilots were already brittle.
"The initial payment is 1,500 yuan per month."
"oh……"
Zhang Yong said that his memory was correct.
It seems to be so much. 1,500 oceans per month. And Chennault refuses to accept legal tender.
It should be said that Lao Chen also had advisers around him. They told him that legal currency is easy to depreciate. Only the ocean is eternal. Of course, if it is US dollars, that is no problem.
However, buying horse bones is worth a thousand dollars.
If there is not a sufficiently attractive salary, who will work for you?
With the cruel process of the Anti-Japanese War, almost all pilots of the National Air Force suffered casualties.
It seems that Gao Yuanhang and others have all died. The pilots who followed were seriously lacking in skills. They went up to the sky to fight Japanese aircraft and were no match for them.
Therefore, the national government had to ask Chennault to recruit pilots in the beautiful country.
Under the temptation of high salaries, many American pilots came to join the fight.
In the early days, salary expenses were still very scary. The Air Force was under great pressure.
Money is needed everywhere. Money is lacking everywhere.
Years 1939, 40, and 41 were the most difficult three years for the National Air Force.
However, with the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, the situation improved slightly.
The beautiful country has greatly increased its assistance to the national air force. A large number of aircraft and pilots have been obtained.
After the Flying Tigers reorganized the 14th Air Force, salaries were awarded based on those of other US air forces. The pressure was greatly reduced.
The logistics of the air force are also borne by the beautiful country. The government is finally relieved.
However, in general, there will be a serious lack of money for a long time to come.
well……
Make money!
Make money!
Take people to check other warehouses.
There is also a weapon sign in No. 9 Warehouse. There may be a hidden pistol or something.
Zhang Yong was too lazy to do anything, so he directly asked the workers to help and earn some extra money.
Sure enough, the selected workers were all very active and worked very hard. Unfortunately, there were no yellow dots inside. Maybe the red hadn't had time to penetrate here.
Suddenly I remembered something and checked the map. I found that the two yellow dots were no longer there.
I looked around intentionally or unintentionally. I really didn’t see the two people from yesterday.
What are they here for?
Come to pick up the goods?
What goods are you picking up?
"Bang!"
"Run!"
"Run!"
Suddenly, someone screamed in the warehouse.
Zhang Yong turned around and looked over and found that the workers inside seemed to have been attacked.
Chen Hai and others thought there was an ambush and immediately drew their guns.
Others also drew their guns one after another.
Finally, it was discovered that there was an accident. One worker was almost hit.
Zhang Yong was confused.
The goods in this warehouse are bags of rice. They are all packed in sacks. One sack seems to weigh fifty kilograms.
For those workers, a weight of fifty pounds is nothing. How could an accident happen?
"Team leader, a mortar was found!" Chen Hai hurriedly reported.
"Huh?" Zhang Yong frowned.
Mortar?
There is actually a mortar hidden in this warehouse?
No way?
Who is so stupid as to hide a mortar inside?
You think the dock warehouse is your own back garden! You can barely hide a few guns, but you actually hide a mortar?
This is too much!
Walking over, everyone dispersed.
Zhang Yong came to the innermost place and saw a mortar.
Part status.
The barrel and bottom plate are separate.
The caliber is 82mm. The workmanship quality does not seem to be domestically made.
There are some runes marked on it. Look carefully. It's actually in English. There are also words such as U.S.A. Huh? It's actually from the beautiful country?
Keep checking. The more you look at it, the more it looks like an 81mm organic mortar from the Beautiful Country.
What is the model number? It seems to be M1? But there is no model number marked on it. I guess it should be.
This is awesome.
It is actually an imported American-made 81mm mortar.
The biggest feature of this gun is its long range. The maximum range is more than 3,000 meters. It is farther than the Japanese 92 Infantry Cannon.
The Japanese invaders’ 92 infantry artillery had a maximum range of only 2,800 meters!
If placed in an infantry company, it can compete face-to-face with the Japanese 92 Infantry Artillery.
But no shells were found.
"continue!"
"yes!"
The workers moved all the rice around.
Sure enough, I found two artillery shells hidden inside a bag of rice. They were wrapped in rice and were difficult to find.
Check the shell carefully. It is indeed made in the United States.
Zhang Yong was angry.
Who is it that uses rice to hide cannonballs?
This is rice! It’s grain! How can you waste grain like this!
Mudd!
After getting angry, he calmed down quickly.
Yes, let’s investigate the basic situation first. Find out who is picking up the goods. What if we can follow the clues?
However, the results of the survey are disturbing.
The rice in Warehouse No. 9 has been stored for three months but has never been taken away.
The person who picked up the goods was named Zeng Xiaofang. She seemed to be a woman. However, there was no specific identity information. After asking around, no one knew who Zeng Xiaofang was.
The bill of lading shows that the weight of this batch of rice is 800 tons, which is 1.6 million jins.
"Has the delivery date passed?"
"It's been five days."
"Okay. We'll handle it ourselves. Pull everyone back."
Zhang Yong waved his hand.
Rice is always in need. Food is the first necessity of the people.
It just so happens that the Air Force has been expanding and needs a lot of food. These 800 tons of food are regarded as military rations.
"Team leader, I found a blueprint."
"What?"
Zhang Yong took it and found another sketch of the presidential palace.
The base map is exactly the same as the one captured before. But there are differences. That is, there are many detailed labels on it.
There are many small circles. Zhang Yong judged that they should represent people.
In other words, the locations with small circles should be office areas or rest areas.
In fact, the Presidential Palace was not the only place where Chiang Kai-shek lived and worked. There were also many other people. Many big shots were there.
For example, Wang Jingwei, He Yingqin, Chen Cheng, Kong Xiangxi, etc.
frown.
Mudd, the spy is looking for trouble for himself again.
Originally, discovering a mortar was no big deal. It was considered arms smuggling at most.
Zhang Yong could investigate this kind of thing or not.
Even if you don't report it, it's not a big problem.
He has so many things on his hands now, how much can he manage?
However, if you find another schematic diagram of the presidential palace, the nature is different.
Not only must it be reported, but it must also continue to be investigated.
Facts have proved that there may really be a small group of spies who want to bombard the presidential palace.
These Japanese spies are so powerful that they even acquired American-made mortars. They have a range of 3,000 meters! They can be fired from very far away places.
Of course, accuracy is completely left to chance. Unless there is a report from an observation post.
Huh? Observation post? Some strange thoughts passed through his mind. Unfortunately, he didn't catch them.
I tried to remember, but couldn't think of it.
"Shaolong, what happened? Is it so lively?"
Zhang Ping came with a smile.
Then, he saw the mortar. He also saw the drawings.
I was immediately shocked.
"This, this, this..." He stuttered so nervously.
"Confidential." Zhang Yong said in a deep voice.
"Okay, okay, okay!" Zhang Ping replied hurriedly. Cold sweat almost broke out on his forehead.
Good guys, mortars, overview...
What is someone going to do?
Shelling the presidential palace?
sky!
He didn't dare to think too much!
His first reaction was to report it immediately.
Madam lives in the Presidential Palace at night! What if someone bombed her with a mortar?
Let's put it this way, they all know that the reason why the Air Force has a superior status is entirely because of Madam's care.
If something happens to my wife, her status in the Air Force will definitely plummet.
So, he was very nervous.
"You can report it to the superior. However, be careful not to cause panic." Zhang Yong said slowly.
"I, I, I'm going now. I'm going now." Zhang Ping took deep breaths repeatedly, but he still couldn't calm down his mood.
This matter is too serious. It involves the future of the Air Force. How can he stay calm?
Instead, Zhang Yong gradually calmed down.
There seems to be no memory of this.
Information from later generations does not say that the Jinling Presidential Palace was ever bombarded by Japanese spies.
Therefore, even if he did not exist, the Japanese spies' bombardment plot should have been destroyed by others. He just happened to meet it.
In other words, the shelling did not actually happen. Therefore, there is no need to be nervous.
As for the butterfly's wings flapping, not necessarily...
"Report, two more shells found."
"knew."
Zhang Yong was very calm and understated.
It's not a big deal. It can be postponed. Why not deal with Yan Guangkun's matter first...
"Shao Long!"
"Shao Long!"
Zhang Ping hurried back.
Zhang Yong nodded and walked out.
"What's the matter?"
"Minister Min, please answer the phone."
"good."
Zhang Yong came to answer the phone and didn't think much about it.
It was probably Minister Min who asked him to pay more attention and continue to investigate and ensure safety.
The instructions from the leader are pretty much the same. All you have to do is listen.
Come to the inspection team's office and pick up the microphone.
"Minister Min."
"Zhang Yong, immediately put down all your work and do your best to investigate this matter."
"What's up?"
"What else could happen? Someone tried to bombard the presidential palace!"
"Ah, I see."
"Report morning and evening! Report directly to me!"
"ah?"
Zhang Yong was immediately stunned.
Sorry. Report morning and evening? Report twice a day?
Wow. It’s not obvious that you can’t do anything else except investigate mortars!
The problem is, he is really not good at investigating this kind of thing!
When he catches Japanese spies, he opens a blind box. Whoever opens the box is the one who gets it. It may be a hit with one move, or it may be that all the 80 draws are wrong.
No definite number!
Reporting twelve times a day is useless.
However, he couldn't tell it. The other party was the deputy director of the Air Raid Department!
To put it simply, he is equivalent to the deputy commander of the Air Force. Before Zhou Zhirou returned to China, Minister Min was the number one figure in the Air Force.
Of course, this is on the surface. Behind the scenes, there is also Madam and Commander Qian.
"You wait."
"What?"
Zhang Yong was stunned.
What do you mean I'm waiting? Threatening me?
Hey, are you still threatening me? Did I provoke you? You still made me wait!
I'm afraid of you...
Then he realized that when the other party asked him to wait, he meant waiting in a clear sense. It was not a threat.
"Yang Lichu will go find you immediately. He will contact Madam directly."
"ah……"
Zhang Yong suddenly felt a big headache.
It's over. I can't run away this time.
Yang Lichu’s side is the real tightrope!
Dead……
"I have ordered the Fourth Air Police Regiment to mobilize its elite personnel to take the train from Hangzhou to Shanghai to join you."
"What are they doing here?"
"Of course I'm here to help you!"
"Oh, thank you!"
Zhang Yong tilted his head and thought for a while, as if I had someone.
But I quickly understood what Minister Min meant. That is, we need to use our own people from the Air Force.
Oh, that's okay.
Bring in the 4th Air Police Regiment. It's just a fake act.
The people around me all wear Chinese tunic suits.
But the Fourth Air Police Regiment is different in that it wears military uniforms. Sometimes, military uniforms are more intimidating.
