Comrade, Your Ingredients Are Too Complicated

On August 31, 1942, it was the city with the worst credit rating in the Republic of China.

Compared with the hot climate in other parts of North China or Indochina, this city, which has special significance to the old Zhang family, can definitely be considered cool as September approaches.

In the early morning, the people in the city wore thin clothes and walked out of their homes to start a new day of "survival journey."

Japanese people can be seen everywhere on the streets, making the residents a little timid in doing anything, for fear of being killed if they are not careful.

However, it is worth mentioning that due to the secret propaganda of some secret organizations, the young and middle-aged people in the city have become more tolerant and fighting spirit, and even some elderly people are ready to fight to the death.

One day in the future, they will definitely be like the residents of Taiyuan, who will cooperate with Wang Shili and Waiwai to defeat the invaders who came to regain the lost territory.

······

Deer Mingchun is the first of the three springs in Shencheng.

As a time-honored brand that has been operating for more than 20 years, it has attracted countless rich and powerful people from all walks of life. Even some Japanese people regard it as their first choice for dining.

At seven o'clock in the morning, the lobby of the store was more than half full.

While the guests were chatting and dining, an uninvited guest suddenly broke in.

"Baga! You bunch of losers who are just waiting to die, why are you wasting your lives in a restaurant so early in the morning? Wasting your time like this is simply disloyal to His Majesty the Locust!"

"It is precisely because of enjoyment-seeking pigs like you that the Kwantung Army's expansion has stagnated."

"Go away and patrol. Recently, the headquarters issued a series of orders. If the guerrillas and traitors interfere with the main force's actions, you will all have to commit suicide."

Military police are a special existence in the army. The selection of this branch of the military is strict and has strict requirements on the educational level, physical appearance and professional ability of the candidates.

These people not only represent military discipline, but also supervise the daily conduct of Japanese soldiers. At the same time, it also plays a stabilizing role and is responsible for maintaining local security in the occupied areas.

In a sense, they can be regarded as a book version of the Gestapo.

Originally, they just came to catch fish and have breakfast, but they never expected that their group would encounter the military police. After hearing the other party's reprimand, the Japanese second lieutenant quickly nodded and bowed to admit his mistake.

"Hi!"

"Your lesson is right. We will return to work immediately and ensure that we complete the tasks assigned by the headquarters!"

Seeing several soldiers leaving Lu Mingchun in complete turmoil, a flash of sarcasm and disdain flashed across the face of the captain of the Shencheng military police unit.

After those people completely disappeared around the corner of the street, he first said hello to the subordinates who were traveling with him, and then walked to the end of the corridor on the second floor in a familiar way.

The box here faces the street and is relatively hidden, making it easy to observe the movement of various people.

In other words, this is a perfect place for people to conduct secret activities.

"Mr. Tamura, you are late again."

"Please pay more attention next time. After all, my status is not suitable for being away from work for a long time."

"By the way, why did you suddenly convene a meeting today? Didn't we just exchange information last week? Could it be that the Kwantung Army headquarters is about to make some big move, and our department has not been notified."

Three long and three short knock on the door to identify yourself and enter the house.

The environment and layout in the private room are very luxurious, and it is definitely not a place where ordinary people can come and spend money.

Just as Gendarmerie Captain Tamura Kazuyasu took his seat, a voice came from the northeast corner of the room. Based on the man's tone, it was not difficult to tell that the relationship between the two was anything but ordinary.

Soon, a man wearing a large cap, a black uniform jacket, and large riding boots walked out of the locker room.

It is worth mentioning that the sorghum flower badge on this man's hat is particularly obvious.

"Shhh."

Faced with the strange greetings from his "acquaintance", Tamura Kazuyasu did not respond immediately. He put his right index finger on his lips and made a silent gesture, indicating that everyone should chat again.

After a while, the last participant arrived in the box.

Compared with the soldiers and policemen in the house, the visitor looked more like a businessman. Of course, if you closely observe each other's every move 24 hours a day, you can still see some clues.

Everyone gathers for a meeting.

Facing the questioning eyes of the two temporary "alliances", Gendarmerie Captain Tamura Kazuan looked solemn and straight to the point told the notice he received last night. "The Japanese base camp and the Kwantung Army headquarters reached an agreement in the middle of this month. Starting next month, the Kwantung Army will officially send troops south to reinforce the North China Front. The operation code is Operation No. 1."

"The specific unit numbers and strength are not yet clear. This is beyond my scope of authority, but I estimate that there will be no less than three full Class A divisions."

"The First Tank Division also has a high probability of participating in the operation."

"So, if the two camps have any plans, hurry up. Whether they are taking advantage of the chaos to cause destruction, or fighting guerrillas along the way, the next month will be the key."

The current Kwantung Army has reached its peak both in terms of military strength and combat effectiveness.

Before major problems arise in the Pacific Theater and Southeast Asia, it is definitely not difficult to send three to five divisions south to join forces with the North China Front.

As soon as these words came out, the expressions of the other two participants changed.

Three Class A divisions plus a tank division, coupled with an unknown number of Army aviation flying teams. A force of this size, even if placed on the Eastern Front of Europe, is a force that cannot be underestimated.

Considering that the Japs could only target themselves, the participants dressed as businessmen hurriedly asked:

"Where is the enemy's target? Is it Henan and Shandong provinces or Shanxi province? Can you get the opponent's route map to the south? Especially the trajectory of the first tank division."

"Will the combined fleet participate in Operation No. 1? Will Yamamoto Isoroku detach a fleet to attack the coastal cities of Shandong Province?"

Facing the continuous questioning from temporary allies, even Tamura Kazuyasu, who was a professional military policeman, was a little overwhelmed.

There is no way, Ye San has only been here for more than a year, and even with the full cooperation of the local team, it will be difficult to carry out operations. Being able to find out the existing intelligence is almost the limit of this organization.

However, the captain of the military police unit could understand the uneasiness of his allies, so he decisively comforted him:

"I can only answer one question for you. The Kwantung Army has a clear goal for this operation, which is to help the North China Front regain a foothold in Henan and Shandong provinces."

"As for the route south and whether the combined fleet will participate in Operation No. 1, I can't give an accurate answer yet."

"But don't worry, such a large-scale operation cannot be kept secret. Our organization has developed to the level of major general, and there will definitely be new information in the future."

When a large corps fights, it is almost impossible to cover up the trajectory of its actions, especially when the Kwantung Army's middle and grassroots ranks are still infiltrated. As members of the axis, the current situation of Desan is the best example.

The assurance of a temporary ally made the business-like attendees feel a little relieved.

As long as the enemy's route of action can be obtained, our own air force can continue to collect tolls along the way. Anyway, there are only a few railways. If the Kwantung Army wants to go south, it must be bombed. It is so arrogant to have air superiority.

Just when the "businessman" was thinking hard and preparing to continue asking questions, the second-class Shencheng policeman wearing a large sorghum flower hat suddenly interrupted his thoughts.

"Perhaps we can provide some reliable information about the southward route of the Kwantung Army tank division."

"As you know, we have been planning a resistance since two years ago. In order to form an army strong enough to protect ourselves, the leaders of each region have penetrated into the Japanese military factories."

"During this process, we not only stole the Kwantung Army's army equipment and industrial machine tools, but also left many informants within the enemy. The deepest ones were in the First Tank Division."

Hearing this, the businessmen and military police all looked at the police officer with disbelief.

Otherwise, it’s mainly because it’s too outrageous. You can get away with sneaking a few boxes of rifles or something, but at worst you can just report the damage. But directly stuffing people into the enemy's arsenal would be a bit outrageous.

Moreover, machine tools can also be stolen? It’s true that brothers are respectful and humble.

With such strength, you might as well let the Qing Pi Sect stab Brother Locust in a certain meeting, so that you can more or less leave a good reputation for yourself.

"Okay, I'll leave the intelligence to you. After this operation is over, I will arrange for you to meet with General Yang."

"The specific time and place will be determined by my superiors, and you will most likely have to shed this layer of skin afterwards. But this is not a bad thing. After all, there are many factions in your organization, so it is best to get out as soon as possible."

······

After talking about the business, the three of them stood up and prepared to leave Lu Mingchun.

Although under the cover of the Shencheng military police, the Kwantung Army's special high-tech department could not even guess that the three major forces of Yang, Ye, and Qing would be mixed together, but it was a troubled time at the moment, and it was always right to be cautious.

Before leaving, the businessman patted Tamura Ichiyasu on the shoulder and said in a pretending relaxed tone:

"By the way, our border area has given accurate answers to the supplies Qiu Yi and Ye San applied for last time. Guns, cannons, ammunition and even tanks are all fine, but the time is not yet ripe."

"At least, you must have a stable territory, otherwise we won't be able to transport it even if we want to." (End of Chapter)
