Chapter 549

鈥淐heng Mosang, I am Takeda Takeo, serving in the Intelligence Department of the Japanese Expeditionary Army. Nice to meet you!鈥� Cheng Mo really didn’t know how to speak, but the Japanese colonel smiled and spoke first.

Nani? ! Cheng Mo’s heart was in turmoil. Takeda Takeo, there were so many legends about this person in later generations. Originally Chinese, he later went to Japan, changed his surname to Takeda, and entered the Japanese military.

He served as a Japanese military attach茅 in Moscow, and it was during that time that he became the mysterious 鈥渟hadow鈥�.

Historical records show that he did work in the Japanese army in China, and was in charge of intelligence.

Such a miraculous figure was right in front of him, and Cheng Mo couldn’t help but feel his heart rise and fall.

Although this person was wearing the uniform of a Japanese army colonel, there was no sense of wretchedness and incongruity between his eyebrows like a Japanese person, so he was worthy of having half Chinese blood.

No, although his mother was Japanese, according to the paternal tradition, he should be considered Chinese by blood.

鈥淐heng Mo, head of the Chinese unit of the Political Unit of the Public Security Bureau,鈥� Cheng Mo hurriedly introduced himself.

鈥淚 have heard a lot about you, and today I finally get to meet you. You are really very good,鈥� Takeda Takeo said with admiration in his eyes.

“Thank you, Colonel Takeda,鈥�

鈥淒on’t call me ‘Colonel’, just call me ‘Takeda’ or ‘Director Takeda’.鈥� Takeda Takeo laughed.

Could there be such a magical thing in the world as a red spy serving as the intelligence chief of the Japanese Expeditionary Army in China?

But it happened to him.

Even in history, such a thing is extremely rare, but when viewed from the domestic intelligence front, it is not unusual for someone like him.

How many people in the power center of the Kuomintang are undercover?

However, I’m afraid that if Takeo Takeda could achieve this, it was because he was extremely talented and also extremely good at hiding. Otherwise, as a spy, he not only survived in the Japanese army until after the war, but was later absorbed and used by the American intelligence services.

After his spy identity was revealed, the Americans were still willing to protect him. This guy is truly a legendary figure. Of course, what Cheng Mo saw was only a fragmentary record of him in the historical records, and he really doesn’t know the real situation very well.

Such a person must be full of secrets.

It was a complete surprise that Saizo Nishio had arranged for him to contact him.

During their first contact, the two sides merely got to know each other and exchanged information. Takeo Takeda gave him his contact number, and Cheng Mo gave the other party the number of his office.

This was the beginning of a connection.

As for what would happen next, it would depend on the needs of both sides to decide how far it would go.

Nishio Teruzo knew his military tactics. Having finally obtained concrete evidence of Miura Saburo’s crime of 鈥渋nsubordination鈥�, he naturally wanted to strike while the iron was hot and crush him.

He immediately mobilized troops and escorted Miura Saburo from the concession to the military police headquarters. He wanted to search Miura Saburo’s headquarters and official residence first.

So a group of people marched angrily along the Beichuan Bridge and entered the HK District.

Because the incident happened so suddenly, the commander of the military police was arrested, and there was chaos in the HK district, which was supposed to be under martial law. Only the police went out onto the streets to maintain order.

Fortunately, the HK district was now a Japanese residential area, and the vast majority of people living here were Japanese. The Japanese were very obedient, and there were no major disturbances.

Perhaps it was for the purpose of humiliating Miura Saburo.

The bodyguards of Teruzo Nishio escorted Vice Admiral Miura Saburo (his jacket had been removed) on a truck along the street.

Miura Saburo was mortified.

Not only had the assassination plan failed, but he had been paraded through the streets tied up by Saigo Teruzo, which was an utter humiliation. The Japanese people on both sides of the street thought they had captured some heinous anti-Japanese elements and cheered and shouted for joy.

Only those who recognized the man tied up upside down in the truck as the Japanese military police commander in Shanghai, Lieutenant General Miura Saburo, dared not make a sound.

Although they didn’t know what was going on, people at the bottom of the hierarchy had better not get involved in fights between the upper echelons, or they would be crushed.

Such a conspicuous target! Liu Guoxing, who had received the order, had already ambushed him halfway up the road. He had also added an insurance policy, in case the first shot didn’t work, there was a second.

Make sure you kill Lieutenant General Miura Saburo in the truck.

Nishio Teruzo’s ruckus really helped Liu Guoxing’s action team.

Bang! Liu Guoxing aimed at the chest of Miura Saburo and pulled the trigger directly without hesitation. The muzzle was equipped with a silencer, so the sound was not loud and was almost completely covered by the noise.

Therefore, almost no one noticed the shot.

The one who felt it most was Miura Saburo himself. With a heart like dead ashes, he suddenly felt a numbness in the area of his heart in his chest, and then he saw a bright red flower blooming from his chest.

鈥淪aijo Temple…鈥� Before he could finish his last word, Miura Saburo tilted his head and died.

At this time, the Japanese second lieutenant holding him noticed something was wrong. Seeing the man he was holding die, he was so scared that he was overcome with fear. He was at a loss for what to do, so he patted the front cockpit, telling the person to quickly step on the brakes and stop.

The Japanese expatriates who were watching suddenly saw a dead person, and they were all stunned. After they reacted, naturally they immediately scattered and left.

The siren sounded.

The gunfire was chaotic…

On July 7, the Japanese wanted to celebrate the so-called 鈥渢hird anniversary,鈥� but it was destined to be anything but peaceful.

Nishio Teruzo received the report of Miura Saburo’s assassination, and he also felt a tingling in his scalp. The first thing that came to his mind was not the assassination by the so-called Chongqing elements.

First of all, this was in the HK district, and secondly, they did not have such a fast reaction speed.

This is more like something done by one of their own.

He didn’t believe that the assassination of Miura Saburo was the idea of just one person. There must have been a lot of people involved behind the scenes. He knew that there were people in the dispatch army and even in the military who were dissatisfied with him and wanted to get rid of him, recklessly provoking war to satisfy their desire for war.

And since the assassination of Miura Saburo had failed, naturally he could not be allowed to live. Once he revealed these people, the future and fate of these people would be over.

No one knows if Miura Saburo will betray them, but these people can simply choose to shut him up.

He would never have guessed that this assassination had been arranged long ago and was just waiting for the opportunity to be carried out.

If someone like Miura Saburo gains power, it will not be a good thing for China. On the contrary, Nishio Teruzo being in this position is not necessarily a bad thing.

Of course, this is only relative. They are both invaders, they just have different methods and strategies.

Hearing the sirens and gunshots from Sichuan Road, Cheng Mo knew that Liu Guoxing and the others had already started their operation, but the outcome was still unknown.

As long as they escaped during the chaos, everything would be fine.

Of course, the restaurant that had been open for more than a year would have to be abandoned, but some evidence would need to be left behind to convince the Japanese that it was a power struggle within the Japanese military.
