Agents of the Republic of China

Chapter 383 Turning Point

To sum up, can Kenji Doihara kill Lin Xiaotang?The answer is absolutely not. Kenji Doihara has no intention of turning against the gendarmerie system and the Kwantung Army system at the same time just because of a person who may be a spy.Lin Xiaotang is indeed a dangerous character, but Kenji Doihara has never found conclusive evidence, which makes Kenji Doihara conflicted.

The current situation is getting more and more dangerous. The German army has been defeated and is about to withdraw from Russia. Russia's million-strong army is chasing after it.According to reliable information, the British, American and French allied forces are already preparing to open up a second battlefield in Europe, and the landing site is set in France. It is conceivable that once the allied forces successfully land, the blow to Germany will be fatal.Kenji Doihara can now confirm that Germany's decline and defeat are irreversible, let alone Italy. Mussolini has stepped down, and the newly formed Badoglio government announced its separation from the Axis powers last year.And Germany reluctantly supported Mussolini to become a puppet government called the "Italian Republic" in northern Italy, and the countdown to its downfall has begun.

Compared with the two allies, is Japan's situation any better?The U.S. offensive was aggressive.Since Commodore Matthew Perry led the fleet into Edo in 1853, the Japanese mainland has been attacked for the first time. As the US military advances, such bombings will become more frequent, and the scale and lethality will also increase. Increase between.

The Chinese battlefield is a huge quagmire for Japan. Millions of elite troops are trapped in it and cannot move. Although the current strength of the Chongqing Nationalist Government and Yan'an troops is still unable to launch a full-scale counterattack against the Japanese army, the Japanese army also has no way Make further progress.

In order to reverse the decline, the base camp is about to launch "Battle Plan No. 50", which is the Battle of Henan, Hunan and Guangxi.It seems ambitious on the surface, but anyone with a little military common sense knows that this will be the last large-scale group attack that the Japanese army is capable of launching.The purpose of this military offensive was to save the Japanese army in Southeast Asia, destroy the US air force base in China, and open up the road communication lines from North China and South China to Indochina.For this reason, the base camp mobilized [-] troops and transported most of the reserves to the front line, trying to make a desperate move to change the situation of the battle.

It now appears that this is undoubtedly an unprecedented "gamble".

At this time, Kenji Doihara can only do his best and obey the destiny, do what is within his responsibility, and wait and see the development of the situation.But what worries him most is the infighting between the ruling faction and the imperial way faction. Kenji Doihara is in charge of the "Doihara Organization", so he is naturally well-informed.Before the start of the Sino-Japanese War, he learned of the "Golden Lily" plan planned by the emperor. He himself did not have a good impression of this plan. The huge wealth could not be transformed into combat power, but was only hidden as the royal family's private property Thinking about it, such wealth is simply worthless, and the royal family's greedy accumulation of money makes him quite disdainful.Through the "Golden Lily", Doihara noticed that the royal family had begun to secretly contact the Allied Forces. This news was the real reason why he had trouble sleeping and eating recently.

The battle is in full swing, but the royal family is secretly preparing for a retreat after the war. If the fanatical radicals of the imperial sect and the general public find out, how will the royal family, the symbol of the empire, deal with itself, and how will the whole country face the approaching approach? The incoming enemy?

Therefore, the matter of Lin Xiaotang put him in a secondary position.With a responsible attitude, Kenji Doihara still wanted to clear up Lin Xiaotang's doubts. Since he could not use torture, he adopted the tired interrogation technique he learned from the Americans. This method has been tried and tested, and no one can resist it. Avoid mental and physical exhaustion and abuse.But what Kenji Doihara didn't expect was that Lin Xiaotang was no longer an ordinary human being in essence. He was actually a super agent who had been sleeping for 60 years.Dealing with his "outdated" means is simply as easy as pie.

The interrogation is over, and Lin Xiaotang's confession can't find any flaws at all. There are still many people rushing to testify for him. Kenji Doihara also feels that enough is enough, as long as the investigation is clear, but Kenji Doihara still holds back , From the bottom of his heart, he knew very well what a dangerous person Lin Xiaotang was, so since nothing was found, he should be released.But it is impossible to return to Shanghai, because Lin Xiaotang's roots are there, and Kenji Doihara will not allow such a person to return there. Since he has come to Japan, he should stay here. Accept All-round monitoring until the end of the war.

"There is still his industry in Japan. Before the end of the war, it is enough to maintain his life. For this person, we must maintain enough monitoring, so that's enough. For the gendarmerie and those guys in the Kwantung Army, it is enough to confess .”

Kenji Doihara gave such an order to Naoe Seigo without even seeing Lin Xiaotang in person.

Naoe Seigo raised his head slowly, staring coldly at Kenji Doihara's somewhat sluggish response, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.

……

In Shanghai, the weather in April has already felt a little hot and humid, but the coolness brought by a sudden patter of spring rain makes the whole season suddenly return to the previous winter.

The news that Lin Xiaotang was arrested by the super-high class has become the most sensational news recently, and various gossips are spreading, but this has not affected the business of the hero nightclub and hot spring hotel in the slightest. Luxuriant.

Once the news of Lin Xiaotang's arrest was disclosed, many people turned their attention to these industries.Including casinos, restaurants, western restaurants, and air-conditioning factories under Lin Xiaotang's name.

As a result, Shanghai Bund fell into chaos for a period of time, making people have the illusion of returning to the days when the heroes from all walks of life in Shanghai Bund fought for hegemony.

As a human being, it was only a short period of time. In less than two weeks, Shanghai Bund regained its calm. Those who dared to jump out to take advantage of the opportunity disappeared without a trace.It was only then that people discovered that even if Lin Xiaotang was not in Shanghai, his power was still unbreakable.

Soon, normal order was restored in Shanghai Beach.

This made Zhuang Chongxian also give up his plan to take advantage of the chaos. Lin Xiaotang was not in Shanghai, but his deputy surnamed Shang took advantage of this opportunity to eradicate many hidden opposition forces. Such thunderous tactics also left Zhuang Chongxian with lingering fears.Zhuang Chongxian didn't even tell his most trusted Zong Fei about this idea. He knew very well that Zong Fei was a principled person with clear grievances and grievances. If you let him know about the matter, there is no guarantee that there will be no troubles.

Fortunately, before Zhuang Chongxian made a move, the situation in Shanghai had calmed down, which allowed him to avoid Shang Zhensheng's revenge for no reason.

This is not the most annoying thing for Zhuang Chongxian.Now, Zhuang Chongxian's greatest wish is to annex No. 76.But he didn't expect that Yuan Jianfeng, who used to be an idiot, seemed to be a different person. As soon as he entered the secret service headquarters, he immediately issued a series of orders and personnel arrangements, and within a short period of time, everyone in No. 76 was panic-stricken. Kneading in the palm of the hand, even Wang Tianmu and other capitulators who had never asked anything before came out again and became the upstarts of No. 76. In the blink of an eye, No. 76 became a monolith.Zhuang Chong made several small secret moves first, not only did not take advantage of it, but suffered a lot of losses.

Seeing this information, Shang Zhensheng nodded in satisfaction. Shanghai's return to such a balanced situation will be of great benefit to Lin Xiaotang's arrangements before his departure.Regardless of the situation, at present, most of the backbone personnel in charge of intelligence in the organization have safely evacuated, and the overseas layout proposed by Lin Xiaotang is also proceeding in an orderly manner, leaving behind only the elite of the elite, plus Shen Fatty and Ma Qixiang's core gang The assistance of the members is more than enough to deal with the current situation, not to mention the existence of Tang Shengming, a foreign aid, in Shanghai, no one can move the organization a little bit.

Shang Zhensheng just received a call from the air-conditioning factory, and a hotel called to complain that the air conditioner installed before had always had problems, and the manufacturer had to send someone to repair it.

The other party didn't say anything else, just left an address and phone number.

Shang Zhensheng looked at the phone number on the note, thoughtful.He knew very well that this was an intelligence force under the personal control of the boss Lin Xiaotang—the Pink Corps. They were all courtesans from various countries living in Shanghai, and their number was small. So far, there were no more than ten people.But their information has always been the most valuable.Before Lin Xiaotang left Shanghai, he deliberately handed over the leadership of this small team to Shang Zhensheng.

At three o'clock in the afternoon, Shang Zhensheng had already dressed up as an ordinary repairman, and went to the agreed hotel under the protection of two henchmen in disguise.

The two subordinates in the hotel led them down to repair the air conditioner, while Shang Zhensheng pretended to check the air outlets in each room, and went directly to the agreed room.

The door was opened by a seductive brown-haired woman. Seeing Shang Zhensheng, she quickly wrapped herself in her pajamas.

After closing the door, Shang Zhensheng asked directly, "Are you Fanny?"

Fanny smiled and stretched out her hand, "Mr. Shang, hello, the boss asked me to contact you directly in case of emergency!"

"Oh, is there something urgent?"

Fanny's face became serious, "According to the definite information, the Japanese high-level officials have started contacting the American intelligence personnel in Shanghai, and the two sides are secretly cooperating."

Shang Zhensheng's expression also changed, "Is Scarlett the representative of the United States?"

Fanny nodded, "That's right, but this is a top secret of the Americans, and I also judged it from some clues. Moreover, I also learned that the representatives of the Japanese have returned, and it is estimated that they have reached some kind of agreement I was afraid that their cooperation would affect the boss's plan, so I notified you immediately!"
