"Atsushi, I need your help with something." Cheng Qianfan clinked glasses with Kawada Atsushi and said.
"What's the matter?" Kawada Atsuhito said with a smile in great interest.
"In normal times, the Jiujiu caravan can transport this batch of supplies to Nanjing independently." Cheng Qianfan said thoughtfully, "However, you just said that in three days, the Watanabe regiment will start sweeping Sunan East Road from Bacheng, Kunshan. ..."
"Isn't this just right?" Sakamoto Yoshino said from the side. He asked Kawada Atsushi, "We can ask Ohta Yuichi to help escort the supplies..."
"Absolutely not!"
"Can't!"
Kawada Atsuto and Cheng Qianfan almost said in unison, it was Kawada Atsuto who said "absolutely not", and it was Cheng Qianfan who said "no".
Cheng Qianfan and Kawada Atsuhito looked at each other and nodded to signal Mr. Atsuhito to speak first.
"The Ota Brigade is the frontline force in the sweep of Sunan East Road and has undertaken an important military mission. It is impossible for them to escort us," Kawada Atsuhito said.
As he spoke, he frowned, "Besides, Ohta Yuichi..."
Kawada Atsuhito shook his head, "This person is a bit rigid."
Sakamoto Yoshino blinked and understood what Kawada Atsuhito meant:
Although Yuichi Ohta was ingratiating with Atsuto Kawada and was willing to do something for the young master of the Kawada family, this person should have abhorred the act of reselling weapons.
Then, Sakamoto Yoshino looked at Kentaro Miyazaki, meaning it's your turn.
Miyazaki Kentaro burst into laughter.
Then he hesitated a little, as if it was inconvenient to say something.
He mentioned to Kentaro Miyazaki that unless it was something difficult to talk about, he would try to talk to him about anything that could be said or discussed between friends.
This is an important way for him to collect and accumulate materials.
"Miyazaki-kun always considers problems very comprehensively." Kawada Atsuhito said, "What I just said must also be Miyazaki-kun's worries."
"I'm not as deep as Master Duren thought." Cheng Qianfan said with a wry smile.
Then, under the gazes of Kawada Atsuto and Sakamoto Yoshino, he said, "I have no confidence in the military discipline of the Locust Army."
Hearing Kentaro Miyazaki say this, Atsuto Kawada was stunned for a moment, but then he could only smile bitterly.
If it were in public, he would definitely denounce Kentaro Miyazaki's remarks as smearing the Imperial Locust Army.
However, since it was a private gathering between friends, there was nothing wrong with it.
The military discipline of the Locust Army is indeed quite bad, but it is relatively good in a big city like Shanghai. When the Locust Army goes out to sweep, even the merchants of the empire must be more careful when encountering the red-eyed Locust Army soldiers. , although it is not life-threatening, there is a high possibility that the goods will be "military requisitioned".
Moreover, you must know that this transportation is the standard weapon of the Locust Army, and they are all shady goods.
"'Jiujiu Trading' belongs to the Chinese Cheng Qianfan in name after all." Cheng Qianfan said, "Even if the Locust Army soldiers know that this is a trading company close to the empire, it will be difficult to protect it at special moments."
"Your concerns are not unreasonable." Atsuhito Kawada did not avoid the question, "In this case, I will issue a special pass and this batch of goods will be transported by train."
"That's the best." Cheng Qianfan was overjoyed and hurriedly thanked him, "Thank you so much, Master Duren."
"Hey, you two." Sakamoto Yoshino shouted deliberately, "Funaki-kun hasn't contacted you yet."
Kentaro Miyazaki and Atsushi Kawada looked at each other and laughed. They were not worried that Naoya Funaki would reject the deal.
Osaka people, as long as the benefits are sufficient, there is nothing they dare not do business with.
…
Gendarmerie Headquarters, Mortuary.
A man wearing a mask was carefully examining the bodies of Japanese military police such as Ishiokayama Chihiro.
.
Chikitaharaji waited quietly at the side.
"Taijun." The man finally finished his work and said.
"Tell me, what did you gain?" Qian Kitaharaji said.
"What my subordinates are focusing on inspecting and paying attention to is the body of Ishiokayama Chiyo Taijun." The man said, "Ishiokayama Taijun was shot directly in the head."
"The gunman's marksmanship is very accurate. This kind of marksmanship is common among sharpshooters in the army."
"Both the Red Party and Chongqing have such sharpshooters."
"However, the possibility that my subordinates tend to be members of the Red Party is relatively small." The man thought, "The Red Party's power in Shanghai is still relatively weak. Except when their Special Branch was active, they were not active in most cases. Too inclined to such a violent assassination operation."
After a pause, the man said, "Especially when targeting the secret service headquarters and with the elite soldiers of the Locust Army on the side."
"Furthermore, judging from the number of bullets on the body, my subordinates prefer that there is only one shooter." The man added.
"Alone?" Chikitaharaji said thoughtfully, "Are you sure?"
"It's very possible," the man said.
Chikitaharaji nodded and motioned for the man to continue.
"So, compared to the Red Party, my subordinates are more inclined to believe that the Chongqing side did it." The man said, "The Secret Service Headquarters also judged that the Chongqing side did it, and my subordinates support this judgment."
"Based on your knowledge of Chongqing, tell me your guess." Chikitaharaji said.
"It's basically impossible to be the Zhongtong." The man said, "The Suhu District of the Zhongtong was almost completely destroyed. Only a few people such as Xu Zhaolin fled. They don't have the ability to do such a big thing."
"Moreover, the other party arrogantly targeted the Locust Military Police directly. This is in line with the military commander's style of conduct," the man said.
"There is an analysis within the Special High School Class. Some people believe that the opponent's target is the Imperial Military Police. The assassins' previous attacks on Chen Mingchu and He Xingjian were to attract the Military Police..." Chikitaharaji glanced at the man, "What do you think? "
"Absolutely impossible." The man said directly and decisively, "Although the military commander also aims to attack the locust army, in Dai Chunfeng's eyes, betrayers like Chen Mingchu and He Xingjian are the ones he hates the most."
"So, Chen Mingchu and He Xingjian are the assassination targets." Qianbei Yuanji said with a gloomy face, "Wang Mu's men rebelled, killed people and fled, while the gunmen continued to hide, targeting the reinforced Imperial Military Police. This is the second Wave attack?」
"That's how it should be," the man said.
"Bag duck is down!" Chibeiharaji looked fiercely and cursed.
"Based on your understanding of military commanders, are there many people who can shoot with such incredible marksmanship?" Chikitaharaji asked, "Or do you have a list of suspects in your mind?"
"The military commanders in Shanghai are now mainly Xiao Mian's Shanghai Special Agents Group, and Chen Gongshu's Shanghai District." The man said, "Xiao Mian's Shanghai Special Agents Group, this unit has always been very mysterious, even among his subordinates at the time. I have done research on the Shanghai special situation team, but I have gained very little. However, there is a saying that Xiao Mian's personal force is quite impressive."
The man pondered and said, "My subordinates understand that with this force, in addition to the fighting ability, Xiao Mian's marksmanship should also be good."
"So, you suspect that the person who secretly shot the imperial military policeman was actually Xiao Mian himself?" Chibeiharaji asked in shock, but also with excitement at the same time.
"It's just a conjecture. I don't have any evidence to support this conjecture." The man nodded and said, "It's just that in comparison, my subordinate is more supportive of the possibility of the Shanghai special case team taking action."
"Does this mean that the possibility of Shanghai District also exists?" Chikitaharaji asked.
"Yes, Taijun." The man said, "Actually, there are quite a few good people in the military command of Shanghai."
He showed a thoughtful look, "And in my judgment, the only person who is likely to commit such a major crime should be Lu Xingge who should bear the brunt."
"Lu Xingge..." Qianbei Yuanji thought for a moment, but shook his head, "What if it was Lu Xingge..."
.
If there is a scandal, then it will be the work of the Shanghai Special Investigation Team."
"What?" The man was surprised and looked at Qianbei Yuansi, "Taijun, what do you mean, when did Lu Xingge become Xiao Mian's man?"
…
After drinking flower wine in an izakaya with Sakamoto Yoshino and Kawada Atsushi, Mr. Cheng let Hou Pingliang smell it and confirmed that the smell of powder on his body was really difficult to hide, so he simply asked Hou Pingliang to drive the car back to Xue Huali. The patrol house on the road.
"You, how many times have I taught you, this is not how to make tea." Cheng Qianfan drove the little monkey away in disgust, and started to do it himself, then waved his hand, "Go and see if that old guy, Old Huang, is asleep, call him Come and give me a shoulder squeeze."
"Brother Fan, I can also squeeze your shoulders." Hou Pingliang took two steps and said.
"Go away." Cheng Qianfan waved his hands in disgust, "Old Huang is a medical officer and knows the acupoints and tendons. Can you just press the acupoints blindly?"
He said angrily, "I want you to push me, but I haven't lived enough yet."
Hou Pingliang left angrily and went to look for Lao Huang.
…
"Yes, go down a little bit."
"That's it, use a little force."
"lighter."
"Oh, yes, yes."
Cheng Qianfan called out comfortably.
"Mr. Cheng, can you please stop yelling like that?" Lao Huang was already upset when he was called in for a massage at night. At this moment, he yawned and said with a dark face, "If this is heard in the corridor, and Don’t be misunderstood.”
He sighed and said, "Isn't it true that Lao Huang's lifelong good reputation has been misunderstood?"
"Just you?" Cheng Qianfan sat up and looked sideways at Lao Huang with a look of disgust on his face, "In northern terms, you, an old helper, have a wonderful idea."
As he said that, Cheng Qianfan pricked up his ears, as if he heard the movement outside the door. He walked quickly to the door, opened the door, and caught Hou Pingliang who was eavesdropping outside the door.
"Get out!" Cheng Qianfan turned red with anger, pointed at Hou Pingliang and cursed, "You stay twenty meters away from me, and then watch me, no one is allowed to..."
Cheng Qianfan scolded angrily, "You are not allowed to eavesdrop on the officer massaging his shoulders."
After saying that, "Mr. Xiao Cheng" closed the door.
When Hou Pingliang saw that Brother Fan was really angry, he quickly stayed away and restored his cold face when facing outsiders.
Seeing that Hou Pingliang was forced to stand in the corridor by "Mr. Xiao Cheng", the night patrolmen immediately walked away from him and did not dare to come back.
…
"What do you think?" Lao Huang asked Comrade Huo Miao in a low voice.
"There should be no problem." Cheng Qianfan shook his head. He understood Hou Pingliang. He was also a poor person. Ever since Lou Lianxiang's little maid died, the little monkey seemed to have lost his soul. He had a cold and cruel look, and could only be seen in front of him. When you treat him, you feel like you are living like a human being.
"Let's get down to business." Cheng Qianfan said, and then he told Lao Huang the information he obtained from Kawada Atsushi at the Chunhe Izakaya.
"Watanabe Alliance? Ohta Yuichi!" A trace of hatred flashed in Lao Huang's eyes.
Cheng Qianfan nodded, he knew what Lao Huang hated in his heart.
Comrade Qin Di was encircled and suppressed by Ohta Yuichi's troops. In order to cover the retreat of the people, he took the initiative to stay and intercept the enemy. After being shot, he was captured by Ohta Yuichi. He was then tortured and unyielding, and was eventually brutally killed by the enemy.
"At that time, I was looking at Qin Di, but I couldn't like it." Old Huang's voice was low, "I just thought, why did the organization send this Muggle to patrol the room..."
While giving Comrade Huo Miao a shoulder squeeze, he said, "I'm thinking about it right now. If I had to do it all over again, I would definitely..."
"You must teach Qin Di well?"
"I must give him a good scolding, scolding him for being so stupid and not knowing how to fight guerrillas..." Lao Huang said, and fell silent.
.
How Qin Di was arrested, he
Later he found out that he could not blame Qin Di. This heroic Bolshevik warrior had done a great job by blocking a small group of enemies armed to the teeth by himself.
"What a wonderful young man, how wonderful it is to be alive." Old Huang sighed.
Cheng Qianfan fell silent.
Yes, what a good young man.
His mind flashed back to Qin Di, who was kicked out of the patrol room after being slapped a few times by him, and the Bolshevik soldier who had long since turned into soil, integrated with this great land, and continued to protect it.
…
"My original plan was for 'Jiujiu Trading' to transport a batch of guns, ammunition, and information on medicines and supplies." Cheng Qianfan said, "In this case, it is best if the Jiangsu Provincial Committee can arrange our team in time. Lay an ambush and get this batch of weapons and ammunition."
"Why, 'Mr. Xiao Cheng' wants to be the captain of the transportation team?" Lao Huang said with a smile.
"That's my intention." Cheng Qianfan nodded, then shook his head, "However, when I was at Chunhe Izakaya, I decided to give up this arrangement at the last moment."
"You're right to give up." Lao Huang nodded, "Our mission is to send out the military intelligence that the enemy has raided, and nothing else will get in the way."
He said sternly, "Nothing can happen to this batch of weapons and ammunition. If something happens, not to mention whether you will arouse suspicion, let's just say that it will affect your status in the hearts of people like Wang Quanhai and Chu Mingyu. "
"It's not just Wang Chuhai, but also Chu Mingyu." Cheng Qianfan said, "The most important thing is, after this incident, I was pleasantly surprised to find that Kawada Atsuhito took the bait."
"Although even if weapons and ammunition are stolen, it will not affect the money obtained by Kawada Atsushi, but-" He paused and said to Lao Huang, "In the long run, this transaction must go smoothly. .”
After thinking about it, Cheng Qianfan said again, "Every aspect, from top to bottom, I have taken a hard bite. Maybe I hope that something will happen to these weapons, but I am not willing to let something happen to me. If I think about it carefully, it seems that there is no such thing." That’s necessary.”
He said to Lao Huang, "Overall, it's best if nothing happens."
Li Mingzhan is a sensible person. This is the consensus of everyone, so it will not reach the point of ruining the goods.
