Chapter 368 Seamless Steel Tubes
Three days after Dongxiang Yingmo was assassinated, the Japanese Special High School finally took action. They suddenly arrested two garrison officers, one of whom was a lieutenant.

Then they raided a village on the outskirts of Tianjin, arresting more than a dozen armed men, and then Misuke Tanaka personally reported to Hidemo Togo: "Your Excellency, Foreign Minister, the person who assassinated you has been caught."

Dongxiang Yingmo immediately asked, "What's going on?"

Misuke Tanaka said calmly: "The people who assassinated you were a group of anti-Japanese elements belonging to the underground party in Tianjin. They bought two scum officers and accidentally learned about your trip, so they planned the assassination."

These two soldiers were Misuke Tanaka's scapegoats. They were both civilians and had no backers. The only backer, Hashimoto Yuminami, was already a dead man, and no one would speak for them.

Dongxiang Yingmo is an old fox who has seen many storms, so naturally he will not easily believe Misuke Tanaka's words, so he asked, "Is everything cleared up, and is the evidence sufficient?"

Misuke Tanaka immediately said: "Everything has been investigated, here are the investigation results of this case," and handed over a file after speaking.

The files contained a series of evidence, which not only recorded what happened, but also the statements of the garrison officers, which could fully prove that the two men were insiders.

After reading these things, Dongxiang Yingmo said: "These two are also officers of the empire. I really didn't expect them to do such a thing. It is simply unreasonable."

Misuke Tanaka immediately said: "Your Excellency, Foreign Minister, you don't have to be angry. There are many officers in the empire, and we cannot guarantee that everyone will be loyal. It is understandable for one or two scum to appear."

Dongxiang Yingmo went on to say: "But the empire treats officers very well. I really can't figure out why they do this. I have to ask myself."

Hearing Dongxiang Yingmo's words, Misuke Tanaka felt a little bit in his heart. After all, this series of evidence was all forged, and even the two officers were tortured into tricks. If Dongxiang Yingmo interrogated himself, he would definitely leak his feet, so he immediately said: "Your Excellency, Foreign Minister , in your capacity, it is not suitable to interrogate these two scum."

Dongxiang Yingmo thought about it carefully, and felt that it was inappropriate to go to the interrogation in person, so she said, "Well, let my secretary go and ask for me."

This time Misuke Tanaka didn't dare to stop him, after all, if he did, it would definitely arouse suspicion, so he nodded and said simply: "Well, I will take your secretary to ask about it."

Dongxiang Yingmo immediately called the secretary and asked him to ask with Misuke Tanaka.

After more than half an hour, the two came back, and the secretary reported to Dongxiang Yingmo: "Your Excellency, Foreign Minister, those two are indeed leakers. They are the scum of the empire. They leaked your news for a little money. .”

Hearing what the secretary said, Dongxiang Yingmo no longer doubted it, and simply said: "The death of these scum is not a pity, Tanaka-kun, how do you plan to deal with it."

Misuke Tanaka said bitterly: "Your Excellency, Foreign Minister, these people are an independent group and have no contact with other people, so they are of no value. As for how to deal with it, it depends on what you want."

Dongxiang Yingmo said coldly: "Since they are worthless, let's kill them as soon as possible, so as to deter those anti-Japanese elements."

Hearing what Dongxiang Yingmo said, Misuke Tanaka let out a sigh of relief, thinking that it was as expected, so that he could silence it publicly.

All of this was planned by Misuke Tanaka. After all, these agents are very familiar with the temper of the Japanese high-level, and they know that Dongxiang Yingmo will definitely make this decision, so they speak like this.

As for the previous secretary's answer, Misuke Tanaka used some tricks to get the two secret agents to pretend to be adult criminals, so that he got away with it. After all, Dongxiang Yingmo's secretary has no experience and is engaged in clerical work, so it is impossible to tell. flaw.

After Dongxiang Yingmo made a decision, Misuke Tanaka reported some more situations, then left and shot everyone immediately, so he was relieved.

The Japanese suddenly shot more than a dozen people, and there were two Japanese military officers, which naturally caused a lot of commotion. Li Yunsheng, who had been paying attention to this matter, got the news immediately.

After finding out the inside story, Li Yunsheng was very different. He didn't expect this to happen, and he thought with disdain in his heart that it seems that high-ranking Japanese officials are no different from officials of the Nationalist Government. Shirk responsibility and find a scapegoat.

After thinking about it for a while, Li Yunsheng felt that this situation was beneficial to him. After all, the case was closed, and the Japanese intelligence agencies would definitely relax a bit, at least on the surface they would not go to war, so that he could meet Keiko Matsushima.

It has been three days since the assassination, but Li Yunsheng has not met Keiko Matsushima, and he doesn't know anything about it, so he was a little anxious, so he asked Zhang Hao, "Has Keiko Matsushima returned home? Is there any news?" Come meet Signal."

Zhang Hao replied calmly: "District Chief, my people have been watching and haven't seen Keiko Matsushima coming home. As for the meeting signal, I haven't even seen it."

Li Yunsheng frowned a little, not knowing what was going on, and then said: "Let your people keep watching. Once Keiko Matsushima returns home, no matter whether she sends a signal or not, you must tell me in time."

Zhang Hao nodded, then reported a little more, then turned and left.

At the same time, in the grocery store in downtown TJ, several underground party leaders were gathering to discuss the assassination case.

Zhao Chengde was the first to speak: "Comrade Wen Tian, ​​who did you say did what happened this time? Could it be someone from the military commander?"

Zhao Wentian said calmly: "It must be them. After all, this kind of assassination is what Juntong is best at."

Zhao Chengde said with a smile: "These military commanders have finally done something good, but it's a pity that they didn't kill the Japanese Foreign Minister."

Zhao Wentian said calmly: "At least one major general brigade commander was killed. It is not bad to have this result." Then he changed the subject and said: "We don't care what the people in the military command did. The most important thing now is, How to accomplish organizational tasks."

Hearing Zhao Wentian's words, Zhao Chengde sighed and said: "Comrade Wentian, I have already inquired. The materials in the concession are not very abundant, especially the controlled materials, and the price is very expensive. With our hands With enough money, you can’t buy much.”

As soon as Zhao Chengde finished speaking, Zhang Qingshan on the side opened his mouth and said: "It is acceptable that the supplies are expensive, but I heard that fake goods are rampant in the concession now, and there are often black and white phenomena. If one is not careful, it will cause Big loss."

Hearing the two people's words, Zhao Wentian was very distressed, and said with emotion: "The current situation is chaotic, we can only be more careful."

Zhao Chengde frowned, and then said: "Comrade Wen Tian, ​​I will think of some ways in terms of materials, but for the sake of safety, I plan to purchase some semi-finished products as much as possible, and then transport them to the arsenal behind for processing into weapons and equipment."

Zhao Wentian nodded, and said in agreement: "This is also possible, but I heard a news that there are a batch of seamless steel pipes in the current concession. If these things can be obtained, let the arsenal make mortars, which will be harmful to the troops. It will be of great help.”

Zhao Chengde asked in surprise: "Where did this news come from, can you be sure?"

Zhao Wentian said cautiously: "One of our intelligence agents got it, saying that this batch of goods was originally purchased by the Japanese and the French, but for some reason, the Japanese broke the contract, so this batch of goods went in. French Concession."

Hearing this answer, Zhao Chengde's eyes lit up, and he said excitedly, "Comrade Wen Tian, ​​what news do you have?"

Zhao Wentian shook his head and said with a sigh: "If I knew the whereabouts of this batch of seamless steel pipes, I would have sent someone to the door, but now I only know that this batch is in the hands of a French businessman, but I don't know the specific news."

Zhao Chengde frowned, and just as he was about to say something, Zhang Qingshan said: "Comrade Wen Tian, ​​these things are related to the Japanese. If we plan on these things, we are likely to be targeted by others, and there is another kind of Maybe, this batch of things was originally the bait released by the Japanese."

As soon as Zhang Qingshan finished speaking, the expressions of the other two people became serious. After a while, Zhao Chengde said seriously: "Comrade Qingshan is right. This matter is very likely to be a conspiracy by the Japanese. After all, the recent For a long time, the people of the military command have been making troubles, which made the situation in Tianjin very chaotic and caused the Japanese to suffer a lot, so they may deliberately set traps. After all, these seamless steel pipes are not only for us to make up their minds, but for the military command people will be jealous."

Zhao Wentian agreed and said: "Yes, this may indeed be a trap, but we still have to find a way to get these things. After all, our troops are poorly equipped, and once we get these things, they will be very useful. "

As soon as Zhao Wentian finished speaking, the other two people also nodded one after another. After all, they all knew the situation of the army and the value of these things, so even if the risk was great, these people would not give up easily.

But how to get these things is a problem, Zhao Chengde asked: "Comrade Wen Tian, ​​but we don't know anything about the whereabouts of these things, even if we want to take risks, we can't do anything about it."

Zhao Wentian said calmly: "We don't need to worry. If these things are bait released by the Japanese, then they will definitely continue to release news to lure us into taking the bait. If this is not a conspiracy, that would be even better. The news is difficult, but the risk is much smaller, which is also a good result.”

The other two also agreed with this opinion, so the three studied it carefully again, and then acted separately.
