Chapter 123 News
While Pudong was still under fire, SH urban area had already received news of the fighting.

Telephones and commercial radio stations also spread news at this moment.

The door of the government was crowded with reporters from various countries who came to inquire about the news. They all asked what happened to the Huatong Pier in Pudong and why there were even gunshots.

Government officials are in trouble.

They are also confused, okay?
They all pretended to be incomprehensible, using Tai Chi with one hand and looking at him from left to right.

For a time, there was a heated discussion in the city, and various speculations emerged one after another.

Concession.

Mitsui Corporation.

Mitsui Xiangnan sat cross-legged in his seat, drinking tea calmly.

He also heard the rumored sound of artillery shells in the city. Although the dispatch of mortars surprised him, it was reasonable.

He guessed that in all likelihood, it was the people from the Defense Corps who took action. The Imperial Warriors should have fought with the people from the Defense Corps.

There should be some shadow of the Secret Service in this matter, otherwise the defense regiment would have no reason to react so quickly.

Thinking of this, he was a little lucky that he had to ask the gendarmerie for someone.

There is no doubt about the combat effectiveness of Japanese soldiers. If it were just the Black Dragon Society and Ronin under his command, he also knew that they would definitely not be the opponent of a hundred soldiers plus a defense regiment.

After all, they only carried short guns, while others had artillery shells plus long guns and machine guns.

Short guns versus machine guns, death is inevitable, but it is not a big problem. He absolutely believes in the combat effectiveness of the imperial soldiers. Even if it is just a pistol, it should be enough to deal with these people.

Are there not more than 800 bandits?
Just take their lives.

The Secret Service's recent actions have been a bit bold.

Mitsui is actually carefully calculating the recent movements of the Secret Service. Judging from his experience in dealing with the Secret Service in the past two years, the capabilities of China's intelligence agencies are actually only average.

Sitting on the safe spot of the concession, their Black Dragon Society can advance, attack, retreat or defend, making them invincible.

It's just that Zeng Haifeng, who was transferred recently, does have two tricks. His behavior is completely different from that of his predecessor. He actually dared to retaliate in the concession. It seems that this person has a lot of power in Nanjing, otherwise he would not be so courageous. big.

After all, ordinary people cannot resist the backlash from the British and Americans in the concession.

Maybe they had pushed too hard a while ago, and their boss Dai couldn't bear the loss of his face, so they saved a hand and allowed him to commit crimes in the concession.

No problem, it's over.

Although so many of his men were killed by the Shanghai District in this wave, as long as he was put under pressure, the situation was still in his hands.

Revenge will soon unfold.

Today is the perfect opportunity.

Now that the people from the Secret Service have gone to Pudong, with the elites of the Japanese Empire here, they can definitely be wiped out.

Suicide.

Mitsui smiled lightly and drank a cup of tea, patiently waiting for the good news.

As soon as the good news comes, he can ask for credit from the Military Police Headquarters.

Jingle, Jingle, Jingle.

The phone on the table started ringing. Mitsui felt slightly excited and quickly picked it up.

"Hello, I'm Mitsui?"

"Baga! You stupid pig, the warriors of the Japanese Empire have been ruined by you, this waste. 100 soldiers, 100 soldiers, all broken into pieces! You idiot, get out of here right away and come to the Military Police Headquarters!"

The yelling and cursing on the phone made Mitsui's head buzz. He couldn't blurt out a sentence without thinking, and then he was so excited that he wanted to ask questions.

However, the person opposite didn't give him any chance to explain.

Clap, hang up.

Mitsui listened to the busy tone on the phone, his ears rang, he felt like he couldn't hear anything, and his eyes stared blankly ahead.

100 soldiers, broken into pieces.

100 military policemen of the Japanese Empire were shattered.

The 88 Black Dragon Club members he called must also be dead.

"impossible."

"impossible."

Even if something happens, even if the defense regiment and the secret service have the combat power of 188 Imperial warriors, it should be more than enough to deal with them.

"It's a trap, it's a trap."

"Black Dragon Society Secret Service."

Mitsui murmured a few words, his eyes getting redder and redder, and the anger accumulated on his face getting heavier and heavier. Suddenly he let out a roar and smashed all the tea utensils on the tea table with a wave of his hand.

The hot tea stove fell, the delicate porcelain was smashed, and there was a loud crackling noise.

It is impossible for the defense regiment to be able to deal with the Imperial Japanese Army. It could only be an insidious plan made by the Secret Service. What happened in Pudong is a conspiracy. It is a conspiracy.

"Conspiracy, cool way!" Mitsui roared.

Well, as soon as the door opened, his subordinates heard the noise and came over in panic.

French Concession, clinic.

Zhou Qinghe was receiving the first distinguished customer to come to the clinic in its history.

Originally, he should be waiting for news at this point in the hotel, but Ma Qingqing called and said that this distinguished guest must see him for medical treatment.

Zhou Qinghe was still confused, who has such good vision?

After thinking about it, it wouldn't be a good idea if the doctor didn't treat me. Anyway, there was a huge disparity in military strength in Pudong, so there was no reason why I couldn't eat, so I came here.

At first glance, it turns out that the other person has really good taste.

The fashionable aunt I met on the train, Xu Meifeng.

"Aunt Xu, your complexion looks very good, but you don't look like someone who is sick."

Zhou Qinghe sat at the diagnosis and treatment table, looked at Xu Meifeng's complexion, and then checked her pulse. Everything was fine.

"Dr. Zhou promised that I would go there, but he didn't come for so long. I don't want to eat and drink, so won't I get sick next? I'm taking precautions in advance."

What Xu Meifeng said seemed to be true, and she was serious.

Zhou Qinghe smiled: "Aunt Xu, I'm a little busy these days. I've been familiar with things in Shanghai and haven't taken time to look for a house. You see, I wasn't in the clinic just now. I plan to go over there when I'm free."

"Really?"

"real."

"So where do you live now?"

"I'm still staying in a hotel."

"Oh, that will cost a lot of money." Xu Meifeng looked distressed and annoyed: "If you go directly to my place, wouldn't that save money?"

"Yes, yes, it's quite expensive." Zhou Qinghe nodded and smiled: "Aunt Xu, how did you know I'm here? Detective."

Xu Meifeng chuckled lightly: "I saw in the newspaper that there is a Chinese doctor who is very powerful these days. As soon as I saw it, I thought that this person is you. Anyway, he is not far from the door, so I came to take a look. After seeing you for a few days, I asked them to help me look for you. Look, it’s you, right?"

"Aunt Xu can go to work in the patrol room now. Her reasoning ability is perfect and her telepathy is particularly strong." Zhou Qinghe joked.

Xu Meifeng laughed: "Don't interrupt. Come and stay at my place. Go and see if you are satisfied. Staying in hotels is a waste of money."

"Okay, okay, I'll go as soon as I'm free." Zhou Qinghe had to go and have a look. People were already coming to his door, so it was not troublesome to take a look.

Zhou Qinghe looked at Xu Meifeng's expression and knew that he thought he was still prevaricating her. He immediately raised his hand and said with a smile: "Just these two days, within two days."

"You said so." Xu Meifeng smiled.

"I said so." Zhou Qinghe nodded.

"Okay, then I'll wait for you."

"Okay okay."

"I'm leaving."

"Walk slowly."

"I forgot to pay the consultation fee."

"No, no, you're not sick."

"Thank you then."

"It's okay, it's just a quick look."

Zhou Qinghe stood up and sent the person away. Ma Qingqing and several nurses immediately laughed and asked, "Who is it?"

Zhou Qinghe sighed, turned to look at them and said thoughtfully: "How can I tell you? She is probably a Shanghai aunt who owns several buildings in the French Concession."

"How many buildings?"

"French Concession?"

The nurse's eyes widened.

"Okay, it was a waste of time. I didn't earn 200. I'm sad and left."

Zhou Qinghe returned to the hotel.

"Section Chief, I'm back."

Zhou Qinghe waited for a while, and Liu Kai also returned from Pudong.

As Zhou Qinghe's direct subordinate, Liu Kai was basically an observer. During the incident, Zhou Qinghe asked him to assign his subordinates to complete the incident. Liu Kai himself still had to separate himself from the incident to avoid being remembered for his appearance.

"How is the situation? Sit down." Zhou Qinghe pointed to the sofa and sat down to wait for the report.

Liu Kai told about the battle, and then talked about the follow-up: "The people from the Secret Service did not directly participate in the battle, and the losses were basically zero.

The combat effectiveness of the Japanese soldiers is not weak, especially when they were cornered, they fought with machine guns and grenades in the warehouse, causing some trouble for the Rangers. There were some casualties, but they should not be serious. I can’t rely on the details. In the past, I had no contact with them. "

"Well, that's right."

Zhou Qinghe didn't even meet with the chief of staff. Everything was contacted by phone. As for the meeting confirmation, Zeng Haifeng was asked to go. The Rangers had a complicated staff and they wouldn't meet without meeting. Safety was always the first priority.

Liu Kai continued to report: "There are quite a few people who surrendered from the bandits, hundreds of them. They have been picked up by people from the local police station and defense group, and they have not been dealt with yet."

"Ah."

"Everything was taken away by the Rangers' military vehicles as planned."

At this point, Liu Kai looked a little excited: "Section Chief, there are too many things, and even the military vehicles can't pull them. When we left, the military vehicles were pulling the goods, and people were running behind to chase them. That scene was terrible."

"But our belongings and the smoke were also taken away by them."

"It doesn't matter, someone will get it back."

Zhou Qinghe nodded slightly, this was the benefit promised to Yang Zhenhua at that time. All the warehouses were ransacked, and the contents inside were added to the contents. Zeng Haifeng would discuss the division with Yang Zhenhua when the time came.

Asking people to send troops is still an act that will kill people, so naturally they can't let them do it in vain.

Otherwise, who will help you next time?
Borrowing flowers to offer to Buddha is no business.

As for foreigners whose warehouse goods are lost, how to deal with this matter?It's simple, if it's blown up, you have to ask the Japanese to explain it.

They are suppressing bandits, what does it have to do with them?

"The other thing is Jiang Wen. I asked her before I left, and she said she had to go to many places to collect things and might come back later."

"Ah."

Naturally, Zhou Qinghe would not let go of the property that Xu Hongfa had robbed for so many years. When the time came, he would confiscate all the property and sell it off.

As for the defense group, I also left gifts for them. So many bandits died, and there were many properties to deal with, so just give them some.

Those sampans alone can probably be sold for a lot of money. This group of people should have a lot of small and broken boats. "By the way, section chief, that Xu Hongfa is not dead. He happened to run into Jiang Wen when he ran back and was captured by Jiang Wen's people."

"He's not dead. Then he'll be detained secretly for now, and we'll see if we can talk about it later."

Dead people have their uses, and living people also have their uses. It's not something too important.

"Okay, then you go and rest first, don't move for the next two days, and we'll see the reaction."

"Okay." Liu Kai nodded and asked, "What about Nanjing?"

"Don't worry. Wait, are there any cultural relics and antiques confiscated by Jiang Wen?" Zhou Qinghe asked.

"Not sure, there should be." Liu Kai scratched his head and smiled: "I can't understand this kind of thing."

"Yeah" Zhou Qinghe responded, thought for a while and said: "This matter is quite important. You need to send someone to go there. If there are any, be careful and bring them all back. Then send a report to Nanjing and say it has been confiscated." A batch of broken porcelain, if you don’t have any, forget it.”

"Yes."

"Go."

Even if there are benefits, some should be left for Boss Dai. Although Zhou Qinghe is in Shanghai, he still has to think about Boss Dai in Nanjing.

Let it go. If not, then when the property is sold, go somewhere to find some good things for Boss Dai.

It is also a way.

two hours later.

Jingle, Jingle, Jingle.

"Hey."

Zeng Haifeng laughed loudly on the phone: "Brother, I want to treat you to dinner, will you give me a favor?"

Zeng Zhai.

Zeng Haifeng welcomed Zhou Qinghe in with joy.

"The God of Wealth is here, please invite me."

"You're back so soon? I thought you wouldn't be able to come back until tomorrow at least from Yang Zhenhua's place. Isn't there a shortage of goods in such a short time?"

Zeng Haifeng wanted to share the stolen goods with Yang Zhenhua. With so many goods, he naturally had to count them, which logically shouldn't be done so quickly.

"That's because I move quickly."

Can money matters be delayed?

Zeng Haifeng patted Zhou Qinghe on the shoulder: "It's said inside."

"Didn't you say you would treat me to dinner? You, a stingy old man, don't treat me even if you make money?"

"How can I? Am I such a person? We won't go out to eat. It's not safe. We'll just have a few drinks at home."

"Then I have to see what kind of food it is. It won't be cooked by you, Section Chief Zeng, right? I'm afraid of being poisoned." Zhou Qinghe joked as he walked.

How could Zeng Haifeng mind being teased by Zhou Qinghe? That was a blessing.

He raised his hands and said with a smile: "I don't think I know how to cook. Don't worry, there are absolutely good wines and delicious food, as well as authentic Shaoxing Nuerhong. The goods just arrived today."

"The one Xu Hongfa copied?"

"Bah, how dare I drink his wine? Chief of Staff Yang gave it to me."

"Really? Quite generous."

Zhou Qinghe approached the inner hall, where there was an Eight Immortals table with seven dishes, one soup and a jar of wine, which was extremely rich.

"Okay, it will be different when you get rich. Let me give it a try."

Zhou Qinghe and Zeng Haifeng stopped being polite. They sat down, picked up their chopsticks, and took a bite of the duck.

"Yeah, it tastes good."

"That's the Huaiyang restaurant that I finally found. I ordered it at noon. The time was just right. This is the eight-treasure duck."

Zeng Haifeng also sat down while he was talking, drank some wine, and said with a smile: "Qinghe, we are really prosperous this time."

"How much is it worth?" Zhou Qinghe also became interested.

"Guangyantu, this is the number." Zeng Haifeng stretched out his palm and turned it three times.

"Two million?" Zhou Qinghe was surprised: "That much?"

Zhou Qinghe had read the information and knew that there were many people smoking cigarettes in Shanghai, but he did not expect to find so many cigarettes in a warehouse.

Zeng Haifeng chuckled: "The goods here are basically ordered by the Qinggang. The inventories of several tobacco and soil dealers were all paid to him at once this time."

Hiss. It’s really developed, 200 million.

Zhou Qinghe has no idea of ​​banning drugs. To put it bluntly, the world is like this. Unless the upper levels of the government strictly prohibit it, anyone below who bans it will die. The interests involved are too deep.

If money is made for foreigners and the Youth Gang, it is better to make money for them.

If you want to get things done, you have to learn to live with the light.

"Will it cause trouble?" Zhou Qinghe asked.

The power of the Qing Gang is not small, and with so many big tobacco and soil merchants behind it, the power is very complicated.

Zeng Haifeng said in a low voice: "Someone has already contacted the Rangers and offered to recycle it at half price. What I mean is to promise them, but we can't really sell it ourselves, can we?"

"Yeah." Zhou Qinghe nodded: "And this way there won't be any trouble. Now that I've sold it, is there anything else?"

"Of course, come on, use your chopsticks and talk while eating."

While drinking, Zeng Haifeng told Zhou Qinghe about the contents of the warehouse like a treasure trove.

Basically what the British and Americans brought in were valuable items. Not counting the cigarettes and soil this time, the contents could still be sold for about 600 million.

Zeng Haifeng meant to get rid of the tobacco immediately, and start a company to sell the rest slowly, otherwise it would be too much of a loss to sell at a discount.

If you open a company, the financial situation in Shanghai will be improved quickly, and the most important thing is that you will have an explanation for Boss Dai.

Otherwise, if you eat too much at one time, Boss Dai will have no way to explain it.

It's still reliable to have a steady stream of water.

"Okay, you can figure it out."

Zeng Haifeng didn't dare to steal his money anyway, which meant that he would be given dividends every month in the future.

After Zeng Haifeng finished talking about money, he asked: "What do you want me to say about the government's rhetoric? Someone has already asked the Rangers. I'm holding back now and haven't let them know yet, but there will definitely be a reporter's question and answer session tomorrow. Yes, this matter must be settled quickly."

Zhou Qinghe had already thought about this and told him immediately.

After a night of fermentation, the news of the battle in Pudong spread a lot.

In particular, the British and Americans in the concession were very angry when they heard that all the goods were burned, and they urgently needed a clear explanation.

The next day, in front of the SH City Hall, reporters from various countries and businessmen from various countries were present, and finally a detailed explanation of the matter was given.

“I believe that many friends here know that in Pudong, there has always been a group of bandit bullies headed by Xu Hongfa, which has seriously affected the smooth flow of business roads and affected the business interests and personal safety of international friends in Shanghai.

The local defense group has been encircled and suppressed several times by this group of bandits, but the bandits escaped with little success. The reason is that this group is composed of local people. They use the special local terrain to resist the government's encirclement and suppression.

However, since the opening of Shanghai as a port, such gangs have never been allowed to wreak havoc on trade routes.

The local defense group reported it. After receiving the report, our military and police departments dispatched personnel to Pudong for investigation. Finally, yesterday, we launched a closing operation to completely encircle and suppress the opponent.

Fierce fighting broke out during the encirclement and suppression. With the help of the soldiers, the bandit forces entrenched in Pudong were completely wiped out.

In the process, Warehouse J, as the battle center, was seriously damaged."

"Why Warehouse No. J?"

"Yes, why did a group of bandits use mortars to bombard us? Who will bear the damage to our goods?"

"Yeah, we can't just let it go, right? Then who dares to come to Shanghai to do business?"

"Yeah, I lost millions, I went bankrupt!"

The people in the audience suddenly became noisy. This statement was obviously not a bitter pill for the businessman to swallow.

The spokesperson lowered his hand and waited for the voice below to calm down and said:

“Actually, for a group of bandits, we really don’t need to use weapons with extraordinary lethality such as mortars.

But the reason is that during the battle, our soldiers discovered a group of unknown origins and extremely powerful combatants. This group was quite large, with a total of three to four hundred people. "

"what?"

"who?"

"Everyone be quiet."

The spokesperson directly showed the photos. One was a photo of three Asian-looking corpses lying on the ground. The highlight was that the pants were taken off, revealing the crotch cloth underneath.

The second photo is a household registration certificate, which clearly shows that the other person’s nationality is Japanese and his place of residence is Hongkou.

The third photo is an ID card, which directly states the other party's military position, Japanese Military Police Headquarters.

"These are the three things we found during the battle. You can circulate them."

Three photos were handed to the audience, which immediately caused an uproar.

No wonder they have to use mortars. If they are Japanese soldiers, and there are three to four hundred Japanese soldiers, if they don't use mortars, how many people will have to die to be able to chew this hard bone?
And there are more than 800 bandits.

Several Japanese journalists and Japanese representatives were immediately criticized verbally and in writing. The British and Americans did not care that they were Japanese and immediately asked them for an explanation.

The Japanese representative looked livid. After seeing the photos, he turned around and left.

"Everyone, be quiet." The noisy venue was once again silenced by the spokesperson.

"As we all know, Japan has been claiming a while ago that it is our Chinese agents who are assassinating Japanese expatriates in the public settlement. This is absolutely not the case."

"We captured the bandit leader Xu Hongfa during the battle, according to his personal confession.

He has been ordered by the Black Dragon Society to rob various chambers of commerce in Pudong.

The Japanese side keeps saying that there is no such organization as the Black Dragon Society, but now facts have proven that not only does the Black Dragon Society exist, but they also have a military background and are carrying out unscrupulous sabotage activities in Shanghai and Pudong!
Not only that, Xu Hongfa also confessed.

Not only did this group of Black Dragon Guild members instruct him to rob the caravan, but they also showed their bestiality and drunkenly insulted his wife and daughter, which made him angry and launched an assassination operation against the Black Dragon Guild members in retaliation.

After being assassinated, members of the Black Dragon Society put pressure on the government and launched a counterattack.

Not only were Xu Hongfa's men assassinated in Pudong, but in order to continue to obtain high profits and maintain terrorist activities, they formed a robbery team of a hundred people to carry out robberies in the name of Xu Hongfa and make money.

I believe that many friends present have heard of this, especially business friends. "

As soon as he said this, the audience burst into excitement.

The British and Americans were furious, and they immediately understood why a new robbery team suddenly appeared, and they were unreasonable and robbed everything.

It turns out that there was a quarrel with Xu Hongfa, and the Black Dragon Club was trying to take advantage of both sides!
These bastards!
They couldn't wait to question that bastard Mitsui right now.

But the spokesman's words continued, and he could not endure them any longer.

“And in the end, in today’s battle, Xu Hongfa was forced into a corner and all his supply sources were robbed, causing serious damage to his interests.

The Black Dragon Society knew this, and also knew that long-term inhumane looting would lead to a quick strike from us, so they sent people to negotiate peace with Xu Hongfa, and the two parties conspired to rob Warehouse No. J.

In fact, the Black Dragon Society just wants to use Xu Hongfa's power to capture the warehouse, save its own troops, and exterminate Xu Hongfa afterwards, so that it can be completely out of our sight and put all the blame on Xu Hongfa.

But what they didn't expect was that Xu Hongfa thought the same way.

Xu Hongfa could not forget the hatred of his wife and daughter, and planned to annihilate the Black Dragon Society after conspiring together, and then flee to other places.

He knew that the Japanese soldiers were powerful in combat, so he brought almost everyone with him.

Both sides had ulterior motives, and a battle began around Warehouse J.

It was also at this time that our military and police detectives discovered something unusual. After reporting, our Rangers seized the opportunity and decisively attacked to launch a complete annihilation operation against Xu Hongfa's group of bullies.

And it was a huge success. "
