Lost and Spy

Chapter 1554 A New Kindness Hall
The Spring Festival of 1941 is coming soon.

The Spring Festival this year is very early, and January 1 is the first day of the new year.

In order to open up the southern section of the Ping-Han Railway and eliminate the threat of the Chinese army to the Japanese army in Xinyang, the 11th Army of the Japanese Army assembled 7 infantry divisions, 1 cavalry brigade, and 3 tank regiments. , Divided into three corps of left, middle and right, divided into three groups, preparing to attack southern Henan.

Before the offensive was launched, the Japanese 11th Army's complete offensive road map and troop distribution had already arrived at the desk of the No. 30 First Army Headquarters in the Fifth Theater of the National Army.

Tang Enbo, commander-in-chief of the group army, couldn't help sighing:

"Why are those secret agents of the military command so powerful? With such detailed information, if my 31st Army can't win a battle, I will really feel sorry for those secret agents."

Regarding the deployment of the Japanese army, Tang Enbo, who had detailed information, quickly formulated a strategy of avoiding the truth and avoiding the truth.That is to divide the main force into two wings, encircle and annihilate the scattered troops of the Japanese invaders from both sides and behind.

The Battle of Southern Henan has been developing in a direction that is beneficial to the national army from the very beginning!

At this time in Shanghai, the situation has also undergone new developments.

With the death of Ishida Hideki, Kagesa Shingaki has been in a kind of pain.

Although Ishida Hideki died in the Japanese Gendarmerie, the one who shot him was also the head of the police section of the Gendarmerie.

Kagezuo Haraaki can shirk the blame completely.

However, after all, he is his general counsel and a confidant of Neiji Okamura.

Neiji Okamura will definitely keep this account on his own head.

Sure enough, in the new year's application for funding, the figure reported by Ying Zuo Zhenzhao was inexplicably cut by a large amount of money by his superiors.

This made the funding of the Japanese army's secret service in Shanghai suddenly tense at the beginning of 1941.

In Shanghai, money is omnipotent in many things.

Funding, funding!
It takes money to keep so many agents.

Funding is required to carry out the mission.

But what about the cost?
He knew that it was Neiji Okamura who was doing it behind the scenes.

At the same time, he also lost the support of Matsui Iwane.

Two powerful figures in the military.

However, Ying Zuo Zhenzhao offended both of them at the same time.

Yingzuo Zhenzhao had a terrible headache.

He had to turn his attention to drugs again.

After Satomifu's Hongji Shantang was bombed and he died, the Japanese drug business in Shanghai has been paralyzed.

Yingzuo Zhenzhao has been actively preparing to resume this "business".

For this reason, he specifically found Satomi Fu's former friend, Major General Okada Chief Tsui, Wang Jingwei's adviser.

The two hit it off almost instantly.

For this reason, after careful preparations, the new Hongji Shantang was put into operation again.

Chief Okada specially recommended a person to serve as the general manager of Hongji Shantang:
Gu Hai Deguang, the son of Gu Haizhong, the deputy director of the General Affairs Office of the Puppet Manchukuo.

This person has been engaged in the opium business in the Northeast all year round and has extremely rich experience.

In January 1941, Gu Hai Deguang arrived in Shanghai and officially took office.

In his plan, there are three main ways to transport opium to Shanghai:
Opium produced in Pseudo-Mongolia and Northeast China, Persian opium purchased from Iran, and refined drugs from Taiwan.

According to Gu Hai Deguang's estimation, with Shanghai as the center and transit point, the amount of opium transported to the occupied areas could be more than [-] tons a year.

The profit is about 3 million yuan!

That would be at the level of the heyday of Satomiho's era.

3 million yuan, which is equivalent to the financial budget of Wang Jingwei's puppet government for a whole year.

Inspired by this figure, Kagezuo Zhenzhao immediately endorsed the plan without hesitation, and entrusted Gu Hai Tokuro with full authority.

The only thing he explained to Gu Haideguang was that the situation in Shanghai was special, and it was very different from Manchuria. In particular, he had to pay attention to the movement of the military command, and he must not be careless and repeat the mistakes of Satomi Fu.

No matter where you go, you need to bring at least eight bodyguards with you, fully armed.

Never give the military commander any chance!
Ying Zuo Zhen Zhao was really scared.

One after another important Japanese figures died in Shanghai.

The pressure on his shoulders was already very heavy.

Gu Hai Deguang, there must be no problems!
Especially that guy:

Meng Shaoyuan, director of the Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai Supervision Department of the Military Command Bureau, and Shanghai District Chief!
For Rite in Shanghai, this person is simply a nightmare existence!
What Yingzuo Zhenzhao didn't know was that before his new Hongji Shantang was about to open, Meng Shaoyuan had already obtained this information.

"Another Hongji Charity Hall? Wasn't it enough to be bombed once?" Meng Shaoyuan said coldly.

"Then blow it up again." Wu Jingyi said nonchalantly.

"Fry it again?" Meng Shaoyuan shook his head: "The Japanese suffered a big loss last time, so they will be more cautious this time. It might not be so easy to blow it up again."

As he spoke, his brows were tightly furrowed:
"Hundreds of tons of opium are exported to the enemy-occupied areas every year, harming the people. This year, they actually prepared more than 200 tons? Is this planning to poison all the people in the enemy-occupied areas?
Using Shanghai as the headquarters and transfer station, is this trying to turn Shanghai into a drug city?No, I have to find a way, I have to find a way. "

Wu Jingyi said what she said countless times:

"You can always find a way."

Yes, there is always a way.

The problem is that the Japanese suffered losses again and again, and became cautious again and again.

Kagesa Haruka will definitely fully ensure the safety of Gu Hai Tokuro.

Where is the breakthrough?

"Let our people closely monitor Hongji Shantang. Zhao Yun will be responsible for this matter." Meng Shaoyuan thought for a while and ordered:

"It's best to find out their transportation routes, escort personnel, and unloading docks. The more detailed the better."

This information will be obtained sooner or later. The question is, what should I do after I get it?The Japanese will definitely be heavily escorted, and the place where the goods are hoarded must also be in the Japanese-controlled area.

You can't go to war directly, can you?

Meng Shaoyuan felt his head hurt again.

He held a cigarette in his hand and played with it repeatedly.

Wu Jingyi knew that Young Master Meng was thinking.

Every time he made this movement without twitching, he was trying to find a way.

As long as he starts smoking, it means that a new plan has been formed.

However, this time she was a little disappointed.

For more than half an hour, Meng Shaoyuan never lit that cigarette.

"Don't worry."

Wu Jingyi comforted: "Anyway, the other party just started, so take your time."

While talking there, Qi Xuezhen walked in: "Just got the information that one of our agents named Ye Huotao in the Japanese-controlled area was captured by the Japanese army and killed."

Meng Shaoyuan said "Oh", this kind of thing happens almost every day, there is nothing strange: "Who is Ye Huotao? Why didn't I know this person before? Which important position is he in charge of?"

"He's just an outside agent."

Ok?Meng Shaoyuan was a little curious, what would he report to him about the death of an outside agent?
However, Qi Xuezhen immediately said: "He hasn't even turned 15 this year!"
