Chapter 306 Selfish Imamura

 Hyōtaro Imamura just looked at his ‘loved disciple’ with a smile.

"There is indeed some business dealings. In France, Peter and I are partners." Cheng Qianfan did not shy away and nodded calmly, "There are also some business dealings with the British and Americans, especially an American businessman.

I once did him a small favor, and later we cooperated with him in business."

As he said that, he walked in front and signaled Hyōtaro Imamura to pay attention to the steps of the stairs, "I told you these things, teacher."

"Well, I'm a little impressed." Hyōtaro Imamura nodded, "Very good, you did a good job."

Hyoutaro Imamura is quite satisfied with Miyazaki Kentaro's "wide contacts" and "prosperous business", especially the latter.



"I'll give you a mission." Hyoutarou Imamura said.

"Teacher, please give me your instructions." Cheng Qianfan said.

The two of them went down the stairs and sat down in the living room on the first floor. Imamura Kogoro ordered the servant to bring snacks and personally brought the red wine that had been sobered long ago.

"This is the wine that Kentaro sent last time." Hyōtaro Imamura took a sip of red wine and said.

"Students don't have any great abilities, and they can't help the teacher. They almost ruined the teacher's reputation. All they can do is honor the teacher with some drinks." Cheng Qianfan said modestly.

"Okay, what happened is over." Hyōtaro Imamura glared at his student, "You are my student, so I will naturally trust you and protect you. If someone bullies you in the future, I will not stand idly by."

After all, this kid is still a little dissatisfied with being suspected and investigated by the military this time, and some of his emotions were unintentionally revealed in his words just now.

"Teacher, what is the mission you just mentioned?" Cheng Qianfan asked.

"The evil Soviet Russia invaded and occupied Zhanggufeng in Manchukuo, which posed a great threat to the empire's border situation in Manchuria." Hyoutaro Imamura said.

Zhang Gufeng?

Cheng Qianfan showed a serious expression.

After the September 18th Incident, Japan invaded Northeast China and then supported the puppet emperor Puyi to establish the puppet Manchukuo.

This also led to extremely tense relations between Japan and the Soviet Union, especially in the border areas, where frictions between the two sides continued.

Against this background, in the summer and autumn of last year, a military conflict broke out between Japan and Soviet Russia in Northeast China. This was the "Zhang Gufeng Incident."

This incident was actually an attempt by the Japanese Kwantung Army to test the military strength and bottom line of Soviet Russia and the possibility of advancing northward.

However, the Zhang Gufeng incident ended in Japan's defeat.

Soviet Russia took the opportunity to occupy Zhanggufeng and directly designated it as a boundary mountain. The puppet Manchukuo controlled by Japan lost the entrance of the Tumen River to the sea.

"Teacher, do you want me to inquire about the reaction of the French, British, the United States and other European and American powers to the dispute between the Empire and Soviet Russia?" Cheng Qianfan thought for a moment and asked.

"The evil polar bear is a greedy beast, and it is also the common enemy of the Empire and Britain, France and the United States." Hyoutaro Imamura solemnly said, "The Empire's fight against Soviet Russia in Manchuria should be supported by the 'free world'."

"Students understand." Cheng Qianfan nodded thoughtfully, "I will talk to Peter, or Xi Neng, or even Mr. Tander, as well as British friends and American friends about the international situation."

Hyōtaro Imamura nodded slightly.



Looking at Kentaro Miyazaki's leaving figure, Hyoutaro Imamura's expression was a little solemn.

The military, especially the Kwantung Army, did not calm down because of the failure of the Zhang Gufeng incident, and still tried to make a breakthrough in the north.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs was very worried about this and believed that Soviet Russia was a giant beast that should not be easily provoked.

However, the Kwantung Army was full of fighting spirit and vowed to wash away the shame of Zhang Gufeng's failure. They took a bite of the polar bear's flesh and opened the way for the empire to advance north.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs was unable to stop the Kwantung Army's strategy, so it thought it could do something about it and get a share of it in the future.

Kentaro Miyazaki's status is low, but he has good relations with the senior officials of the French Concession and has some contacts with the British and American parties.

In fact, his student also had some business dealings with the Soviet Union. Kentaro did not hide this, and even hinted at "reporting" it to him.

Kentaro Miyazaki is a messenger.

When it is temporarily inconvenient for the top officials of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to communicate directly with European and American powers, "little people" like Kentaro Miyazaki can actually play the role of threading the needle.

In addition, Kentaro Miyazaki's apparent identity is Cheng Qianfan, a senior Chinese police officer in the patrol room. A Chinese who is friendly to the Empire of Japan acts as a messenger for Japan. This is a very wonderful arrangement. Once the matter is leaked, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs can also have more information.

more room for maneuver to avoid overstimulating Soviet Russia.

For being able to think of using Miyazaki Kentaro's special status to handle this matter, Imamura Hyoutarou was somewhat proud of his plan.



"Brother Fan, what's wrong?" Li Hao glanced at the rearview mirror and asked.

Brother Fan had been thinking silently since he got in the car, and Li Hao couldn't help but feel a little worried.

"It's okay, I'm just thinking about things." Cheng Qianfan said, "The hospital is ready."

"It's ready. Brother Fan, you have already said hello in advance. Dr. Lin from St. Mary's Hospital personally arranged to reserve the first-class delivery room." Li Hao said.

Bai Ruolan's due date is at the beginning of next month, which is close to the Spring Festival. Although there is still one month before the due date, Cheng Qianfan has already contacted the hospital to prepare the delivery room, and has the best obstetrician and gynecologist waiting.

St. Mary's Hospital is called Guangci Hospital in Chinese and is located on Father Jin Road. The hospital has three wards, namely first-class, second-class and general wards.

First-class and second-class wards are more expensive and can only be afforded by French, wealthy Chinese and church people.

Ordinary wards are low-cost and even well-off families can afford them.

The first-class ward of Guangci Hospital has always been tense, and because it is a French mission hospital, it has always had a proud attitude. If you want to book a first-class ward, it is not just money that can open up connections.

However, given Mr. Cheng's power and prestige in the French Concession, and Mrs. Cheng was expecting a baby, Mr. Cheng said that he wanted to reserve a first-class delivery room, and the hospital had to reserve it one month in advance.

"Brother Fan, which one does Mom use?" Haozi asked.

Regarding Naima, Jin Kemu’s wife helped find one, and his wife He Xuelin also helped find one. Even Mr. Zhang Renfeng from the Qinggang Gang specially invited an experienced Naima from his hometown in Shaoxing. He said that she had enough milk and had taken care of her several times.

Both the young man and the young lady are fat.

"Use all three, see which one the child likes." Cheng Qianfan smiled and said.

All three families have good intentions, especially the teacher and his wife who regard him as their own son. This is a happy event and a sign of their sincerity. It is not appropriate to decline any one of them, so I simply accepted them all. This kind of favor must be continued.

His eyes were gentle, and Cheng Qianfan couldn't help but feel anticipation and joy when thinking about the child that was about to be born.



Lafeifang, President Xiao Cheng’s new home.

This is a Western-style two-story small bungalow.

There is a front lawn and a small garden in the backyard.

"Are you feeling better?" Cheng Qianfan helped Bai Ruolan sit down.

Before going out today, Ruolan felt uncomfortable, so she did not go to the banquet with Cheng Qianfan.

"It's much better. It was just a bit hard at that moment. I got better after drinking the salty soup cooked by Mother Lu." Bai Ruolan said.

Mother Lu is the new maid hired by the Cheng family. She is a well-known maid in Shanghai and is good at taking care of women who are in labor and delivery.

In addition to Mother Lu, Mr. Xiao Cheng's family also has two more maids. Although they are maids, Bai Ruolan treats them like sisters. Both girls were 'bought' by Bai Ruolan from the nursing home.

"Master, we have just cooked the Tremella Fungus and Lotus Seed Soup." The little maid Li Zi brought a bowl of sweet soup over. "My wife has already ordered it to be cooked on the stove."

"Thank you for your hard work, madam." Cheng Qianfan said with a smile.

With the little maid present, Bai Ruolan looked shy and rolled her eyes at her husband.

"Where's Xiaobao?" Cheng Qianfan asked.

"Asleep." Bai Ruolan knew what her husband meant, so she said with a smile, "Xiaobao has had sweet soup."

"I have some things to deal with later. I need to go to the patrol room. You should rest early." Cheng Qianfan smiled. He stirred the sweet soup with a spoon, blew on it, and brought it to Bai Ruolan's mouth.

Bai Ruolan took a small bite and shook her head. Seeing her husband eating happily, she was filled with joy.

But the worried look under this happy face was still noticed by Cheng Qianfan.

"Just to handle some official business." Cheng Qianfan understood what his wife was worried about and said.

Bai Ruolan felt a little relieved.

After accompanying Ruolan for a walk in the living room and telling the two maids and Mother Lu to take good care of his wife, Cheng Qianfan changed into a coat and hurriedly left home.



Luo Yannian's eyes were full of expressions of pain, disappointment and anger.

He looked at Jiang Qi kneeling in front of him, and finally all his emotions turned into a long sigh.

Jiang Qi made the move.

When he broke out with the Baoer Squadron, he was unfortunately captured by the Japanese army. Faced with the interrogation of the Japanese army and the bayonets wielded by Japanese soldiers, he did not give in at first.

However, when a Japanese military sergeant placed a box of canned beef in front of the hungry Jiang Qi, he betrayed his faith and betrayed the people.

The Japanese army learned that Jiang Qi was a member of the Red Party and had been a traffic officer for Luo Yannian, the important "leader" of the Shanghai Red Party. They were overjoyed and decisively decided to let him escape, and ordered him to return to the Red Party, waiting for an opportunity to capture Luo Yannian, and then strive to capture Shanghai.

Catch them all in one fell swoop.

Objectively speaking, this plan is almost seamless.

Jiang Qi was not really tortured and left no traces of torture. If he returned to Shanghai, almost no one would think that he had been captured and rebelled.

What Jiang Qi never expected was that Ah Hai would become suspicious of him just because of a piece of cornbread, and step by step he would see through his shameful face.

Jiang Qi cried with snot and tears and begged Luo Yannian to let him go.

Just when Luo Yannian was silent, Jiang Qi suddenly got angry and wanted to hold Luo Yannian hostage, but Luo Yannian directly grabbed his arm and threw him over his shoulder.

Gao Lan and a comrade immediately came up and held Jiang Qi down.

"I taught you all your boxing and kicking skills." Luo Yannian glanced at Jiang Qi, shook his head with a painful expression, and waved his hands as he spoke.

Looking at Jiang Qi being escorted away by Gao Lan, Luo Yannian was sitting on the stool, his whole body seemed much older.

Jiang Qi was not only his traffic officer, but also his comrade-in-arms. It could be said that he guided the young man who was revived by his bowl of rice soup to embark on the road of revolution step by step.

Luo Yannian's wife and children were sacrificed by the Kuomintang reactionaries during the White Terror. It can even be said that in his heart Jiang Qi was his child.

Jiang Qi's betrayal and the upcoming punishment he deserves are a double meaning of betrayal and loss for Luo Yannian.

"Comrade Ah Hai, I want to thank you." Luo Yannian stood up and bowed deeply to Ah Hai, "You were able to discover the traitor Jiang Qi in time and avoid heavy losses to the organization. I thank you."

He was really afraid, not only because he was arrested and sacrificed because of Jiang Qi's rebellion, but because such a cancer was lurking within the Red Party and could cause heavy losses to the organization.

If that happens, he will not rest in peace even to death, and he will have no shame to see Marx.



"Old Huang, it has to be you." Cheng Qianfan took a piece of dog meat and said happily. (PS1)

On a cold day, eating hot stewed dog meat and drinking wine are like the gods on this day.

The dog meat cooked by Lao Huang is a must-have.

Of course, Lao Huang was also good at stealing dogs. The house opposite the patrol house kept three dogs in a row, and each time they were lost just after they were fattened. Every time the owner lost a dog, he would come to the yard of the patrol house and scold him.

Everyone knew where the lost dog had gone, but He Lao Huang was stubborn and refused to admit it. He even took out the German black-backed wolfhound that he had raised for General Xiao Cheng, and showed his love for dogs "shamelessly"

The man thought he was angry, but he couldn't do anything about this old guy who had always had a close friendship with Xiao Cheng.

"The organization will arrange for a group of young students and anti-Japanese activists to leave Shanghai in the near future to support the first detachment of the New Fourth Army." Cheng Qianfan lowered his voice and said, "Our task is to ensure that the comrades can safely pass through the enemy's blockade and leave Shanghai smoothly.

"

In May last year, the Northwest Central Committee issued important instructions to the Jiangsu Provincial Party Committee and the Shanghai Municipal Party Committee.

Local party organizations are required to send some capable cadres to the places where the New Fourth Army is fighting, and mobilize students, workers, activists, revolutionaries, and party members from various systems in Shanghai to join the New Fourth Army and strengthen our army.

Later, the Southeast Bureau instructed the Shanghai Underground Party to "do a good job in publicity work for the New Fourth Army, send as many cadres to the New Fourth Army as possible to provide financial help, and cover the comrades of the New Fourth Army's logistics department in purchasing in Shanghai to help the New Fourth Army develop and grow."

From Comrade Dandelion's mouth, Cheng Qianfan learned that this troop transport was the largest-scale transfer of anti-Japanese forces to the New Fourth Army by the Shanghai party organization so far. The organization attached great importance to it and required it to be foolproof. "These anti-Japanese troops must not be allowed to

The flames died on the way to Zhenjiang'.

"It's not easy." Lao Huang looked serious and shook his head.

"Yes, there are difficulties." Cheng Qianfan nodded, "However, we Red Party members have always been unafraid of any difficulties and obstacles and will complete this mission despite all difficulties."

The Japanese and puppet troops' large-scale sweep of the anti-Japanese armed forces around Shanghai also opened the prelude to the brutal blockade of the Japanese invaders against the Japanese armed guerrilla zones and New Fourth Army base areas.

Shanghai's industry and commerce are particularly developed, and there are many talents in culture, education, health and other fields. The enemy obviously pays great attention to preventing Shanghai's support to the New Fourth Army. It has strengthened inspections and blockades on land and water, and its intensity is unprecedented.

Mr. Xiao Cheng's Jiujiu Trading has been having trouble getting in and out of Shanghai recently. Given the heavy 'friendship' between Jiujiu Trading and the Japanese army at various checkpoints, they have been subject to inspection when entering and leaving Shanghai. It is conceivable that they want to transport a large number of goods now.

How difficult it was for the anti-Japanese personnel to leave Shanghai.

Cheng Qianfan also received a call from Comrade "Farmer" of the Northwest Headquarters, hoping that the French Concession Special Party Group could use a flexible approach to cooperate with the Shanghai Party Organization to complete this arduous troop transport task while ensuring its own safety first.

He now only hopes that the confidentiality of this troop movement is good enough, so that the enemy does not detect it in advance, so that it can be smoother. Once the enemy knows this, he wants to avoid the enemy's many checkpoints and strictly prevent the movement of such troops.

If many people go out, the difficulty is comparable to climbing to the sky.



Hongkou District, super high school.

"Section Chief, urgent call." Araki Harima called out to Sanbonjiro who had just fallen asleep.

Sanbonjiro frowned, looked unhappy, and muttered a few words.

He has a serious problem with waking up.

However, after receiving the telegram from Araki Harima, Sanbonjiro's expression immediately became serious.

"Map!" Sanbonjiro said in a deep voice.

Araki Harima immediately turned on the incandescent lamp, then walked straight to the wall, opened the scarlet curtain, and handed the baton to Sanbonjiro.
