The spy career of a surgeon

Chapter 230 Reaction

The military police were busy, not knowing what to do with their guns, and they were so panicked.

The reporter was quite courageous, so he excitedly started taking pictures with his camera.

An explosion occurred in the city hall, and Gu Lugui was killed on the day he took office as chairman of the SH Citizens Association. This news blew into the concession like the wind, and the entire concession was in an uproar.

If on the wedding day of Fujita Kazuki, three businessmen were happily shot dead on their way home after drinking, this was a random punishment of traitors by the anti-Japanese forces.

Today's explosion was obviously premeditated and carefully planned. The operation was extremely successful. The person who died was the traitor chairman appointed by the Japanese.

Combined with Gu Lugui's own reputation and prestige in Shanghai, this big thunderous explosion was officially announced to all the merchants in the concession.

The party-state’s intelligence agency is back!

This is a bloody warning!

This is the fate of anyone who dares to be a traitor!

The people in the concession cheered for joy. Compared with the wealthy Chinese who had been renting in the concession, there were now more poor people in the concession. They were homeless during the war and could only live in the concession to work as small workers and depend on others.

They are so happy about the return of the party-state and the assassination of traitors.

Who wants to be a submissive citizen of the Japanese?

Don't want to at all!

The business class began to become uneasy, especially those who had attended the wedding banquet of Fujita and Qingqing. They were afraid that they would be noticed by the party-state's secret service organization, so more and more people were recruiting bodyguards.

Compared to the reaction from the concession, which was trepidatious at best, the mood at the Military Police Headquarters was one of anger.

Under the protection of the military police, in the city hall, he was assassinated by the Chinese. This is simply a shame!

And it is a huge shame that is publicized in front of Shanghai and the whole world!

Zhou Qinghe was called back to the military police headquarters for a meeting while on leave.

First, the commander of the military police, Lieutenant General Taro Iwasa, sprayed at the military police.

"You can actually let Chinese people sneak into the venue. How are you doing your security work!"

"I don't even know about Gu Lugui's appointment as chairman. Why can the Chinese accurately plant bombs on his car?"

"No one could be found beforehand, and no one could be arrested afterwards. Reporters from all over the world captured this scene. The reputation of the Military Police Command has been tarnished. Who among you two is responsible?"

"Bagaya road!"

Iwasataro usually has a calm personality and is of the deep type. Now he is really anxious and furious, spraying his anger at Zhou Qinghe and Tojo Akio.

At this time, Shinozuka Maomi had to help and said: "Fujita-kun just got married and is still resting these days. He may not be clear about the arrangements."

Iwasataro glared at the two of them, his anger not diminishing at all.

But he stopped talking. If he continued to scold him, he would have to scold Tojo Akio, a fool.

Then people from the consulate sprayed anger.

Hase Incheon was in an extremely bad mood: "The list has been drawn up, and the matter has been reported to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. As a result, the chairman died that day. What should we do now? Replacement? Who should be replaced?

Before I came, I received calls from several businessmen asking if we had caught the murderer?

You know what this means, the Chinese are afraid!

If we can't give them confidence, do you think these businessmen will do whatever they want to do in order to save their lives?

Can we still achieve the goal we want to contribute wholeheartedly to the Empire of Japan?

What a waste! "

When he said this, Hase Incheon glanced at the people attending the meeting. Although the last eye he cast was Tojo Akio, he actually scolded everyone in the Military Police Headquarters.

After the gendarmerie was scolded, the agenda for the next meeting was the selection of the new chairman and the gendarmerie's protection of the upcoming press conference.

Discussions went on and on, and after much thought, I decided to forget it. It didn’t matter if we didn’t hold the press conference. We’d already lost face to this point, and it didn’t mean much if we didn’t hold it. We might as well agree on the candidate and directly serve as the chairman.

"The military police must strictly control access to important places. For example, the city government must provide 24-hour protection. Although it is a Chinese person, it is also the face of our Japanese empire. Vicious incidents like today will never be allowed to happen again. !”

"Hi!"

The incident ended with Zhou Qinghe and Tojo Akio being reprimanded, and the two Japanese gendarmes guarding the gate of the city hall responsible for security inspections being rewarded with military sticks.

The next day, newspapers and media all over the concession reported on the incident, and some patriotic media also wrote about Gu Lugui's evil deeds and the iron-blooded behavior of the Chinese agents. They wrote articles full of passion.

When the news came back to Chongqing, the principal praised the incident and called Boss Dai to praise Zhou Qinghe.

"The whole country is cheering for this act of exterminating the traitors. Zhou Qinghe can achieve such a feat and live up to my expectations for him. Yu Nong, I must praise you. For the traitors, we must kill more and kill more." They are scared."

Then Boss Dai sent a congratulatory message to Zhou Qinghe.

"Well done, keep up the good work."

The new chairman who took over the Citizens' Association was a Chinese director of the French Concession Public Board.

Veteran entrepreneurs, those who can serve as Huadong directors in the French Concession, can be said to have abundant capital and numerous connections in Shanghai.

When he went out the next day, he was attacked by three people and shot to death in the street.

When the news spread, the uproar among the people became even worse. The French Concession was safe and there had been no incidents for a long time.

But Chinese agents told them, what about the French Concession?

Kill as you please.

The anger of the Japanese Consulate can hardly be suppressed. If one of them chooses to die, the face of the Japanese Empire will be completely disgraced.

So the gendarmerie got a new job, and a new chairman was elected, who was closely protected by the gendarmerie.

It doesn't matter, the list is so long, it's not like Zhou Qinghe doesn't have anyone else he can kill.

"Tell Jiang Wen that there is no fixed target. The people on the list can be killed when given the opportunity. Any means will do."

More intense assassination activities began. At first, the businessmen thought that the Chinese agents were the best, and as long as they were not the chairman, they would be fine.

But the subsequent assassination told them that surrendering to the Japanese without paying a price was just a dream.

Jiang Wen divided the limited forty people into ten groups. They tracked ten people every day and assassinated them whenever there was an opportunity.

Shoot, slash, blast, poison

Time passed day by day, and the newspapers in the concession were full of news about the death of traitorous businessmen every day.

Among businessmen, this is simply the scariest thing of the year, and they are in constant fear all day long.

Among SH citizens, this is a way to cheer up and cheer up their spirits every day, and they just want to say 'Well done.

The businessmen contacted the consulate every day to seek protection, because they found that the temporary bodyguards could not cope with the elite agents.

The Gendarmerie Headquarters had no choice but to send more Gendarmerie bodyguards to protect the safety of these Chinese businessmen.

On one side, there are Chinese agents running around. Every time the Military Police Headquarters is dispatched after a Chinese agent operation, even with the cooperation of the Concession Patrol Room, these well-prepared people cannot be caught.

On the other hand, if the protection requirements of these businessmen are not met, these businessmen will be afraid, which will be a devastating blow to Shanghai's economy and directly affect their tax returns.

Bodyguards were dispatched.

But the assassinations continued as usual.

The action of the Military Police Headquarters sending out bodyguards can only be said to have had some effect, such as protecting the person from death for the time being, but it did not change the entire assassination situation.

Because the Military Police Command is facing too many problems.

After these days of competing with the assassination forces in the concession controlled by Zhou Qinghe, the people at the military police headquarters and the consulate clearly understood the complexity of the situation.

At this moment, in the conference room of the Military Police Headquarters, Military Police Commander Taro Iwasa no longer felt as angry as when Gu Lugui was assassinated.

Even the newspaper on the table showed a few photos of traitors lying dead on the street.

All he had left was a calm expression, so calm that he was a little numb.

The mood was really shattered.

Coincidentally, the same is true for Hase Incheon.

At that time, the military police headquarters was vigorously criticized for its inaction. The military police were useless in these operations. Now, compared with the heroic performance of the imperial soldiers in the Shanghai Incident, dealing with Chinese agents is simply a matter of heaven and earth.

But in these days, just let him command the military police and protect them as he says, and it's still a damn good thing to do.

He was also numb, tired, tired.

The problem now is not to criticize or blame others, but simply how to avoid killing people.

Everyone in the conference room had similar expressions, calm, indifferent, and numb. However, the main figure in the military police force responsible for providing personnel protection, Tojo Akio, had a straight-up expression.

If you get used to being scolded every day, you won’t have to worry about having too many debts.

Instead, he was a little gloating about his misfortune. The people present scolded him harshly at that time, and it was so interesting to see the expressions of these people now.

proceed if you can?

And Zhou Qinghe, who had sold out his leave and joined the gendarmerie to arrange protection matters, had been scolded from the beginning of the assassination to today. He was also insensitive at this moment, as if he was mourning for his heir.

Frustration, it is so difficult to find Chinese agents. Now no one curses anyone, and I can have a good meeting.

Shinozuka Maomi glanced at everyone and said calmly:

"Based on all the assassinations in the past month and a half, our staff department has made a summary of the situation. Regarding the failure to find Chinese agents, we have summarized the following main reasons."

“First, the cunningness of Chinese agents.

There are a lot of businessmen who have taken refuge with us, and our military police protection power is limited. Basically, it can only provide careful protection for big businessmen, while it is relatively weak or even non-existent for small businessmen.

But China's assassination organizations treat these people equally. They kill some of them. If they can't kill the businessmen, they kill their assistants. If the assistants can't be killed, they blow up the warehouse. They even don't spare their dogs.

The purpose is to cause murder and kill as a warning so that the Chinese people will not dare to help us.

They have too many choices, and we cannot take them all into consideration. People other than ourselves are exhausted from running back and forth, and we cannot control death. "

“Second, the population of the concession.

After the second Shanghai Incident, the number of Chinese living in the concession increased significantly, which made our pursuit difficult.

At this time, the attitude of the British and American Concessions, and even the French Concession, towards us had changed significantly from before the war. They were not very cooperative with our request to hunt down the agents, and they might even favor the Chinese agents.

The murder of the Chinese director of the Public Board of the French Concession is an example. Even if a Chinese person recognized by them was killed, the French only cooperated for two days and stopped helping us search. When our military police came in, they searched for it themselves. The request was refused directly.

The change in attitude was very detrimental to our pursuit work. As expected, we were unable to find this group of hidden Chinese agents in the concession.

The words of some people in China have become reality. After experiencing the concession occupation and the epidemic incident in the Shanghai Incident, to some extent, various countries have implemented isolation against us. "

“Third, the change of identity.

Compared with before the war, Shanghai was Chinese territory at that time, and Chinese agents had fixed residences. Whether it was the Secret Service or the intelligence department of a government department, we could find some clues if we wanted to.

But now these people are hiding in the dark. We want to find them, but there are no clues at all.

It's a simple assassination. They run away after the action, and we can't pursue them at all. "

“Fourth, communication issues.

Although we occupied Shanghai, this is China after all. Most of our military police cannot speak Shanghainese, and they cannot even speak a few words of Chinese anywhere.

It is almost impossible to hide the identity and find the traces of agents in secret. As long as we investigate, once our people speak a few words, they will be discovered by Chinese agents, and they will have enough time to escape. "

“The results of these years are also very revealing, the failure of the intelligence department of the Military Police Command, the failure of the intelligence department of the Marine Corps, the failure of the intelligence department of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

The failures these days have forced us to admit that our military and intelligence capabilities have been of little use in cases against Chinese agents. "

“So in response to the upcoming situation in Shanghai, the general staff’s opinion is to give up the pursuit of agents in the concession and make every effort to build an intelligence agency composed of Chinese people.

Collect and arrest Chinese agents from all over the country, let them serve us after their rebellion, let Chinese agents attack Chinese agents, and form the application of using China to control China in the field of espionage warfare. "

To admit the failure of one's countrymen, one can only use Chinese people. Although this statement made the people present feel uncomfortable, it was also very bold.

Because letting the Chinese come in in the intelligence field is a gamble in itself. If the Chinese are exposed to confidential information, they will definitely know more. This is a double-edged sword.

But the staff's idea is almost the only option available at the moment.

The proposal passed quickly.

Then we made certain suggestions for the future structure. Although Chinese people are used, the managers must be Japanese. There is no doubt about this.

As for the requirements of managers, this time it is not only the matching of official positions, but more importantly, performance. Let performance speak for itself.

Tojo Akio was overjoyed, because this was his strength, and he had many people in Manchuria who could make suggestions.

"I can contact General Doi Madoka and dispatch capable people to take charge of Shanghai affairs."

Tojo Akio's reaction was in line with everyone's expectations. The counter-espionage system in Manchuria was mature, and this was the purpose of proposing this idea of ​​using China to control China.

"Okay, let General Doi Madoka send a general over." Iwasa Taro nodded in agreement.

"But hurry, we don't have much time, people are dying every day."

Now they have to familiarize themselves with the situation and recruit people, which all take time. If this drags on, all the merchants who have taken refuge with them will almost be killed.

"Hey, I'll send it right away."

Zhou Qinghe can't compete for this position. He really can't be worthy of this capable person.

Let’s take a look, life has to go on.

At the end of the meeting, Zhou Qinghe sent a telegram to Boss Dai, describing the Japanese choices and the possible changes in Shanghai's structure in the future.

The Japanese knew they were stupid and turned to the Chinese. This method of using China to control China is really effective. The main reason is that the thinking is similar, and everyone's training is similar. You can know the conspiracy and secret calculation methods that have been passed down for thousands of years. meeting.

In terms of difficulty, dealing with Chinese agents is definitely more difficult than dealing with the Japanese.

Times are tough.

Boss Dai said it didn't matter and responded via telegram.

"You have done a good job these days. The principal is extremely satisfied with the anti-traitor operation in Shanghai. They sacrificed their heads one by one and killed each traitor. This is proof that the Japanese are not good enough. Now the anti-Japanese sentiment is rising throughout the country. Are you ruthless? It greatly enhanced the prestige of my secret service!

As for what you said about the Japanese looking for Chinese people to take charge of espionage work, there is no need to be afraid of it. If you dare to come, then continue to kill until no one dares to do anything for the Japanese! "

Boss Dai is still very confident. He only wants to kill people. If he is a traitor, he will kill him to the end.

"If you need support, just ask."

Boss Dai knows that Zhou Qinghe doesn't have many people at his disposal now, but now Shanghai can come and go at will, and people can be dispatched at any time if they want. There are many action team members, so it's not a big problem.

"By the way, there is one more thing to inform you. The Secret Service has been officially withdrawn and promoted to a new bureau, and has been renamed the Bureau of Investigation and Statistics of the Military Commission."

Military unification is established!

The Japanese are looking for reinforcements, but they haven't arrived yet. It will take some time to get familiar with Shanghai. Zhou Qinghe is not in a hurry.

The assassinations continue.

Currently in the concession, the two people who have the most comfortable life are him and Zhang Xiaolin.

Zhang Xiaolin's eyes were venomous, and he knew at a glance that this must be Boss Dai's people acting. He was definitely a little scared, but not too scared.

If he was really afraid, he wouldn't dare to be a traitor.

As long as you are prepared for problems, there won't be much of a problem in the concession.

We started with 20 bodyguards, and the vehicles were bulletproof vehicles specially ordered from foreign countries. One for him, and another for Zhou Qinghe.

This is not enough, as long as you go out and wear a special bulletproof vest, some young people just go out wearing 30 kilograms of iron plates to do full body bulletproof work.

When he showed off to Zhou Qinghe, Zhou Qinghe was impressed. If he wasn't ready to kill him now, he would really want to attack him. It's really difficult to kill him in the concession.

On the contrary, the businessmen were killed one by one, and Zhang Xiaolin found an opportunity to make a fortune.

One person falls and the other stands up. The biggest thing Zhang Xiaolin does every day now is to read the newspaper to see who died today.

He is happy when someone dies. When this person dies, the business becomes vacant.

No one died, but he still had to curse a few words. Boss Dai was not strong enough.

Now that the golden velvet suit has suffered a stroke and is staying behind closed doors, Du Yuesheng has left Shanghai, and the entire Shanghai Youth Gang is in his hands.

Combining the power in his hands and Zhou Qinghe's brand, he could grab whatever he could, open the business and make money.

This month's dividend for Zhou Qinghe has been increased to US$70.

Zhou Qinghe has Zhang Xiaolin's dividends, dividends from international orders from the equipment factory, dividends from Chinachem Hotel, and income from gifts as a military policeman. In just a few months, his deposit has expanded from 100 million U.S. dollars to nearly 700 million U.S. dollars. Ten thousand U.S. dollars.

The investigation of Zhang Fayao's whereabouts has not stopped, but Zhang Xiaolin is too careful, and now there are constant assassinations in the concession, so that Zhang Xiaolin's bodyguards are supervising Zhang Fayao very tightly, and Liu Kai's people have never had a chance to take action.

Fortunately, the principal was convinced by other achievements and did not push him, so Zhou Qinghe concentrated on dealing with other traitors.

Two days later, Zhou Qinghe received a call at the Fujita Residence.

"Captain, the staff wants you to come to the headquarters for a meeting."

"I know, what happened?"

"The people from Manchuria invited by Major Tojo have arrived. In addition, a Chinese man came to the door of the Military Police Headquarters today. He claims to have been a Chinese agent and came to join us specially."
