Chapter 390.
Japanese Premier’s Legation in Shanghai, Office of the Minister of Intelligence.
Kawasaki Tatsuo.
His face was a bit gloomy, although this office of his was facing the Huangpu River, the curtains were drawn all year round, regardless of spring and summer.
Those who do intelligence work don’t like to expose themselves to sunlight.
This was a special kind of psychological implication.
“Inspector Cheng really said that?” Facing Chiyoko, who stood in front of him and was still a bit formal, Kawasaki Tatsuo snapped in a deep voice.
“Yes, he and these people used to get along briefly, at the Four Row Warehouse, we were each hostile to each other, all of that is in the past, and now that these people have been trapped in a lonely military camp for two years, he wants to see our sincerity towards peace.” Chiyoko said.
The muscles in the corner of Kawasaki Tatsuo’s eyes twitched slightly, a mere Chinese detective in the rented area, how dare he talk to himself about this? Does he have that qualification? How could it be that only someone like Boss Du was qualified to say this?
However, the information he had on hand about Cheng Mo, especially the item about his social relations, was very simple two years ago.
But now it’s different, all the three religions and nine streams, the literary world, the actual industry, the green and red gangs, the authorities of the rented world, and even the Chongqing side ……
all seem to be inextricably linked to this young detective.
This young man is by no means as simple as he appears, otherwise, how could he achieve so much in just two years? Pushers, there must be pushers behind him.
Otherwise, the Intelligence Department would not have raised this person’s level of importance over and over again.
“Fine, I will report this matter to Mr. Iwai, but I can’t make a decision, you tell him to wait and will give him news as soon as possible.” Kawasaki Tatsuo said, he didn’t refuse, this matter was big, he, the Minister of Intelligence of the Consulate in Shanghai, couldn’t make the decision, he had to report it to the Military Attach茅 in Shanghai as well as the Vice Consul General Iwai, who was in charge of Intelligence, for a decision.
This matter can only be coordinated by Iwai Eiichi.
Iwai Yingyi do intelligence, there is no black and white idea, even gray can be used, as long as it can be controlled.
Between countries, friendship and hatred are secondary, interests are the most important.
Especially if it is in the interest of the Great Japanese Empire.
Kawasaki Tatsuo’s return, but also let Iwai Yingyi difficult to decide the situation, the orphan camp thing, the Japanese Consulate in Shanghai rarely intervene.
Now suddenly intervene in it, I’m afraid it will upset the army side, and there is the Japanese Marines in the four rows of warehouses.
Of course, it is not impossible to do.
But there is a need to coordinate the relationship here, and the request Cheng Mo put forward is not too much.
Unless the Japanese troops were now out to occupy the Concession, it would be impossible for the Concession authorities to hand over the generals in the Lone Battalion to the Japanese.
This would be tantamount to saying that the British were going to break off diplomatic relations with the Chungking side.
The British do not have this idea at the moment, and even if he did, he would be prevented from doing so, a risk that he would not dare to take.
Japan’s domestic also do not want to offend the British because of this, at least at this time at this moment, they still need the European powers of Britain and the United States to export them all kinds of strategic resources, in order to maintain the consumption of the war.
As long as it is not to release all the people in the orphan camp, only select a part of the ordinary officers and soldiers, this is not a big problem, is that after these people leave the orphan camp, how to place? Continue to stay in the rented world, only to become unstable elements instead ……
Cheng Mo didn’t let Chiyoko say that he would receive a group of people, he wasn’t that stupid, if the Japanese knew what he had in mind, he probably wouldn’t have facilitated this.
As long as the Japanese agree to release a portion of the officers and soldiers, then the retention of these officers and soldiers is not something they can control.
After thinking about it for a while, Iwai Eiichi still picked up the telephone on the table and made a call to Shigemitsu-do.
This call was naturally made to Kagemusha. Kagekazu was now solely responsible for negotiating with the Wangfeng, and he had the right to speak and decide on the disposition of the Lone Army Camp.
A moment later, Kagemusha’s voice came through the telephone receiver.
Kageyoshi was also surprised that Iwai would call him, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has never had a good relationship with the General Staff Headquarters, and the current Foreign Minister is Nomura Yoshizaburo, who was born in the Navy.
The general policy in Japan today is to focus on solving the China issue and to suppress the ambitious army.
As long as it can help to solve the Chinese problem, the top is willing to try, even if it is a little small possibility.
After listening to Iwai Eiichi’s plea, Kageyoshi Teisho felt that it was not an unacceptable condition.
Within the lone camp, these bottom soldiers, in fact, do not have particularly great value, the real value is the officer of this team, that refused to yield to the colonel chief Xie Zhongmin.
But Shadow Zuo saw an opportunity, an opportunity to stir up conflict within the Lone Army Camp.
If this request of Cheng Mo’s was agreed to, and it was impossible to release everyone, then who would leave and who would stay, how would this work out, and if it was not good, it would trigger a fight within the Lone Army Camp.
This was simply an excellent opportunity to pry open the cracks within the Lone Army Camp.
Kageyoshi Teisho’s mind flash thought for a moment, quickly made a decision, this matter can be done, but how to do it, but also need to carefully consider again.
Also, how to utilize this matter to gain the most benefits.
Getting Kagemusha’s affirmation, Iwai Eiichi put down the phone and immediately asked his secretary to call Kawasaki Tatsuo over for a face-to-face meeting.
On the other side, after Kagemusha Teisho put down the phone, he also felt that this matter was done well and could be quite fruitful.
Right now he was secretly negotiating a subsequent supplementary treaty with Wang, but he had not given up his secret contacts with the Chongqing side either, he was just hiding it from Wang.
It would not be a bad thing if this matter was used to open up the situation.
Since you want to secretly contact and negotiate, then you have to show a little sincerity, right? This might be some kind of test from the Chongqing side.
The more I think about it, the more I think it’s possible, Kagemusha paced back and forth in the room several times, and finally made up his mind to make this happen.
In fact, for the Japanese can agree to their own this condition, Cheng Mo heart although some bottom, but not so full.
His role between the British and Chongqing authorities, there is no guarantee that the Japanese will not have a little speculation, this he does not expect the British to be able to keep secrets for him.
Therefore, he had to be mentally prepared for the Japanese to already know this identity of his.
As long as the Japanese do not know that he is the identity of the military intelligence, then his value in the eyes of the Japanese will not have too much change.
As for, he was absorbed into the British Intelligence Department to work, this Japanese didn’t care, after all, the biggest rival of the Japanese in East Asia was the United States, and, the relationship between him and the British was quite ambiguous.
Cheng Mo is the identity of the Chinese, even if he is absorbed into the British intelligence service to work, it is difficult to get the absolute trust of the British ……
He is not saying that his wings are full now, at least he has some strength and influence in the inspectorate of the Ministry of Public Works, especially after receiving part of Lu Liankui’s forces, except for one or two veteran Chinese detectives, no one can suppress him anymore.
He didn’t touch those gray industries, so that many of the bigwigs of the Green and Red Gang didn’t have any animosity towards him, so he was also well-liked in the Green Gang.
In particular, his relationship with Lu Jing Shi made it clear that it was possible for him to influence Mr. Du.
These were things that many people could not see.
