Years of the Republic of China 1913

On the afternoon of the same day, Okamura Ningji officially received the transfer order, and the Military History Research Office of the General Staff Headquarters was transferred to work in the Special Higher Class.Although Neiji Okamura's military rank was still Major after the transfer order was issued, he was extremely excited at this time, and on the surface he folded the transfer order neatly and put it in his pocket, then looked around at the piles of documents, The Military History Research Office of the archives, then strode away without looking back.

After staying in Tokyo for a week, Okamura Ningji, in the name of the person in charge of the Kanto State Super High School, recruited several old subordinates from the General Staff Headquarters, the Army Department, etc. with the help of Fujita Ichiro. As for the personnel specially recommended by the Black Dragon Club Okamura Ningji didn't want any of them, but he politely declined them all.

Everything was ready, Okamura Ningji and his men left Japan on a warship traveling to and from Kanto Prefecture, and headed for Lu*shun, the core of Kanto Prefecture.A few days later, he finally set foot on the land of Kanto State, looking around with mixed emotions.

"Excuse me, are you Major Okamura?" As soon as he got off the boat, before Okamura Neiji could stand still, a short-figured young man in a suit and glasses walked up to him quickly, stood at attention, bowed and saluted, and asked respectfully. road.

"I'm Okamura, are you...?"

"Sadaichi Suzuki, the former resident of the General Staff Headquarters in Shanghai*, has reported to you!"

"Oh, you are Suzuki-kun." Ningji Okamura smiled slightly. He knew this Suzuki Sadaichi before he came. As an assistant to Ningji Okamura, he will be responsible for the back office of the special high school and the liaison with the headquarters, the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the General Staff Headquarters.

"Hi!" Suzuki Sadaichi bowed deeply, got up and took the suitcase from Neji Okamura with a smile on his face: "Major Okamura, and colleagues, our car is over there, please follow me Come."

Nod your head and gesture to the left and right.Okamura Neiji and the three people he brought followed Suzuki Sadaichi to the outside of the port. Not long after, they saw two cars parked not far away, helping to store their luggage. Suzuki Sadaichi invited Okamura Neiji to board. One of the cars, the remaining three got into the second car.

The car quickly left the port area and sped towards the city.sit in the car.Neiji Okamura didn't say anything, he seemed to be a little tired from the journey, he closed his eyes slightly and said nothing.

"Major Okamura, I heard that you graduated from Lu Shi in Meiji 37 and from Lu University in Taisho 2?"

"Yes!" Okamura Ningji nodded.

Suzuki Sadaichi seemed very happy, and said excitedly: "Suzuki is a Lu Shi who graduated in Meiji 43, and then went to Lu University until he graduated from Lu University in Taisho 6. In this way, Okamura-kun is Suzuki's senior. It is really exciting to think about working together with seniors in the future!"

"Oh, it's really a coincidence to say that." Listening to Suzuki Sadaichi talking about his experience, no matter from Lu Shi and Lu Da, he is a classmate who does his part, but he is a few years ahead of him.With such a relationship, Okamura Ningji couldn't help but smile.

Interested in asking about Suzuki Teiichi's post-graduation experience, Okamura Neiji learned that after graduation he directly entered the Staff Headquarters as a member of the China Division, and was later sent to China as a resident.He stayed in Beijing*Beijing and Shanghai*Shanghai for a period of time, until not long ago he was selected by the Headquarters of the Super High School and transferred to Kanto Prefecture.

Talk about this experience.Okamura Neiji is somewhat similar to him. Okamura Neiji only has more experience in actual combat than Suzuki Sadaichi, and he has been going back and forth between the staff headquarters and the intelligence system since then, but because of the different departments of the two parties, the Plus some reasons have not seen it.

On this topic, the two sides started talking in the car.It didn't take long for Neiji Okamura to discover that this young man who was a few years younger than him was actually a thorough China hand.Not only speaks fluent Chinese.Moreover, they are well aware of the situation in all parts of China, especially the Kantung Prefecture and even Northeast China north of the Kantung Prefecture, which is what they commonly call "Manchuria" in private.No wonder Ichiro Fujita would deliberately transfer him to work in the extra-high school. Having such an assistant by his side really helps a lot.

The resident of the Kanto State Super High School has long been prepared.It is a three-story building not far from the headquarters of the Kwantung Army.Since the last local war between China and Japan, the military has proposed to readjust the configuration and deployment of Kanto Prefecture.With the approval of the Emperor and the cabinet, the former Kanto Prefecture garrison was renamed the Kwantung Army, and the Governor-General's Office was removed and changed to the Kanto Office. The establishment of one division plus six independent garrison battalions was expanded to three divisions.

At present, it is time for the handover between the two sides. Although the Governor’s Mansion is removed in name, but because there are still many government affairs that need to be handed over to the Kwantung Army Command, the Governor of Kwantung Prefecture is still in office temporarily, but most of the actual power has fallen to the Kwantung Army. in the hands of the headquarters.Coupled with the reasons for the Sino-Japanese armistice agreement, the Kwantung Army's rectification and defense replacement procedures are somewhat complicated. In order not to stimulate the Chinese National Defense Forces in the north, the Kwantung Army Command can only adopt the method of notifying the other party and gradually changing defenses.At this time, the Kanto State Special High School was also officially established, and the sign of the Gendarmerie Command was hung to the outside world. In fact, this building has nothing to do with the Gendarmerie from top to bottom.

According to Neiji Okamura's request, the car did not go to the originally arranged residence for him, but drove directly to the Kanto State Super High School.After entering the building, guided by Suzuki Sadaichi who mentioned arriving in Kanto Prefecture, he walked around the building and inspected the defense and security situation here.Looking along the way, although Okamura Ningji didn't say anything, he was still satisfied in his heart.Suzuki Sadaichi is worthy of being his junior, and at the same time he has a background in intelligence. The resettlement work here is going very well.

Finally, he entered his office, took off his coat, Neiji Okamura took a few steps in the room, turned around and sat down behind the desk and said, "Thank you, Suzuki-kun, your arrangement is good, I am very satisfied. How do you think about the establishment and placement of the department?"

After being praised by Okamura Neiji, Suzuki Sadaichi smiled and replied respectfully: "There are already candidates for the recruitment of several departments such as the telecommunications room, the analysis room, the archives room, and the confidential office. I will make the list tomorrow." Hand it over to you. As for the action team and mobile personnel, I'm afraid it's just..."

"Okay, I see. Let's talk about setting up other departments first. The operations and mobility personnel can be released first. There is no rush."

"Hi!" Suzuki Sadaichi quickly agreed, and then looked at Okamura Neiji who seemed to want to deal with work in the office first, and reminded with some hesitation: "This...senior...you just got off the ship, are you going to Take a rest at the residence arranged for you? Also... because of your arrival, Commander Tachibana specially invited you to a banquet tonight."

"Commander Tachibana's banquet?"

"Yes."

"Who is there?"

"In addition to Your Excellency the Commander, there are also the Chiefs of Staff of the Kwantung Army, division heads, brigade heads, etc. Oh, by the way, Your Excellency the Governor will also be present."

Okamura Ningji thought for a while, and readily agreed: "Hehe, then thank Commander Tachibana for my kindness, let's go! Let's go to the residence, and it is not rude to attend the banquet of Your Excellency the Commander. I have to take a bath, and then Changing clothes, I can't appear in front of Your Excellency the Commander like this."

"Hehe..." Listening to Okamura Neji's jokes, Suzuki Sadaichi also laughed a few times, and when Okamura Neji stood up from his chair, he hurriedly led the way out of the office and took Okamura Neji Go to the residence not far away.

That night, the original Governor's Mansion was brightly lit. The former owner and the new owner who were about to leave attended the banquet at the same time. Almost all the military dignitaries from Kanto Prefecture attended the banquet. Neiji Okamura who received the invitation did not wear military uniform, but changed A well-fitting suit went with Suzuki Sadaichi.

On this occasion, all the people coming and going are "Your Excellency", and even their adjutants and entourages have higher military ranks than Okamura Ningji. No one paid much attention to the special high-level class that had just been established for less than a month.

Tachibana Koichiro invited Neiji Okamura to the banquet. One is that as the commander of the Kwantung Army, he knows more about the inside story of the special high school than ordinary people. The other is that Fujita Ichiro greeted him from Tokyo and asked him to take care of Okamura. Ning Ci, and cooperate with the work of the special high school.

The current Fujita Ichiro is not the former Fujita. He is a hot new star in the military department, and he is also a senior secret agent leader valued by both the General Staff Headquarters and the Ministry of Internal Affairs.Regardless of whether the two parties have had friendship before, this face still has to be sold, but when Okamura Neiji arrived, Tachibana Koichiro only superficially expressed a polite welcome to his arrival and attendance at the banquet, and then entertained the guests reason to leave.

On this occasion, a face like Okamura Ningji was a bit out of place, not to mention that people who knew his identity didn't pay attention to this sesame mung bean-like major. Except for the waiters, almost no one came to entertain them, let alone Talking and laughing with those generals.

However, neither Neiji Okamura nor Teiichi Suzuki seemed to take this situation seriously. The two stood in the corner with glasses of wine in their hands, watching the endless flow of people, with smiles on their lips, wondering what to do. What, sometimes they whispered a few words to each other, as if enjoying it.

On the second day, Neiji Okamura did not rest for a few days like Suzuki Teiichi suggested. He came to the special high school early in the morning and started his busy work.

For a whole day, he first arranged the positions of the personnel brought in according to the job classification, and then personally went out to interview the personnel selected by Suzuki Teiichi in the early stage, and selected suitable personnel for arrangement.Subsequently, Neiji Okamura held the first super high school meeting. At the meeting, he proposed that the first important task after the initial establishment of the Kanto state super high school is to require everyone to complete all the super high school in the shortest possible time. Configuration, up and running smoothly as soon as possible. (To be continued..)
