Battle of the Third Reich Chapter 244: Big fire and (9)

"Remember, the 76th must be completely erased, without leaving even a trace." The caller was Razor Tojo. This Lu Xiang's voice is very characteristic, and he will never forget it once.

Sifang Dazuo stood by the table holding the phone receiver, his waist as straight as a javelin.

"Oh, sir! The action has begun, please rest assured, everything is under my control." The Quartet replied respectfully, as if the Tojo Lieutenant General was standing in front of him.

"Sifang, you followed me when you were in the Kwantung Army Gendarmerie. I believe you can do this well, don't mess it up." Tojo's tone in the receiver eased slightly.

"Oh, there will be no mistakes, sir." The Quartet bowed to the air and replied.

"Zhexi, I am waiting for your report in Tokyo, so be it." Tojo hung up the phone as usual.

"Thank you very much, goodbye, Lord Minister of the Army." Ignoring the blind tone coming from the earpiece, the Quartet pretended to bid farewell to the other party solemnly, and then put down the telephone receiver indifferently under the gaze of the Japanese officer in a room.

He didn’t expect that Tojo would personally call to talk about this operation. Obviously, the Army Ministry and the Staff Headquarters have also noticed the seriousness of the problem. The Secretary of the Army’s meaning is already clear, that is, Kill the target completely, never leave a living mouth.

The call is made through a dedicated line of the Japanese Army, through the submarine cable between Japan and Shanghai, so there is no risk of leakage of the content of the call.

"Never let go. This is the order of the Minister of the Tojo Army." Sifang held the scabbard of the 1994 Sabre in his left hand and announced loudly to the officers of the 85th Wing.

"Drink!" Although there were several Grand Zo-level officers in the room with a higher rank than Sifang, all of them bowed respectfully to Sifang at the moment.

The Minister of Army Razor Tojo actually called and interfered in this matter himself. This virtually added a lot of mental pressure to the hearts of the 85th Regiment officers. Zuo Zuo United Captain thought that this was only a clean-up operation planned by the 13th Army Command, but he didn't expect that he would even alarm the Minister of Army in the cabinet. Now things are troublesome. If this operation is successfully completed, it will of course be a great achievement. Everyone can get promoted and make money, but if there is a problem in the operation, even a small omission, it may be the Secretary of the Army. The people around him infinitely magnify, and even directly affect the career prospects of all the generals present.

"I will personally go to the front line to command the battle!" Zuozuo Dazuo grabbed the saber placed on the table and said loudly to the four parties.

"Please wait a minute, I will go with you." The Quartet motioned to the adjutant to put away the album notes on the table, then picked up his battle hat from the edge of the table and put it on his head backhand.

=============================================== =======================

Nobuhiko Nishiba, the administrative officer of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, stood beside a black Ford sedan with a Japanese consulate license plate. With a cigarette lit in his hand, he watched coldly at a group of Japanese officers and soldiers rushing past.

The two administrative officials of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Niuchang and Takahashi, are currently designated observers of the Japanese Consulate-General in Shanghai. Because in this environment, Foreign Minister Matsuoka is not suitable for public appearances, so The two of them represented the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and were responsible for monitoring and communicating with foreign affairs at the scene of the operation.

In the final analysis, Matsuoka can no longer believe this group of red deer army at this time. No matter how respectful the attitude of the four parties, no matter how diligent the Maeda side serves, it will not be able to comfort Matsuoka's army monkeys. The fragile soul deeply hurt.

The Lou Zi stabbed by the Japanese Army during these days are always settled by the foreign affairs department of Matsuoka. Even if this is his duty, the red deer cannot just stare at him. Pit, he also has other work to do, OK?

With that abundant energy, you can go to the navy octopus. Isn’t this the Army’s favorite daily routine? Why do you bother to provoke the people of the independent country? Besides, if you want to pick, you should also pick a soft persimmon. Why do you always kick the steel plate! This happens once or twice. If you really can’t think about it, just go to a corner where no one is living and hang your belly. Don’t always trouble others! Is it interesting to keep annoying people from China? Are all the generals in the army of M physique? This group of mindless guys will all die to Lao Tzu! red deer! Idiot!

Although the Foreign Secretary did not publicly yell at these thoughts, Matsuoka's madness can be clearly felt by the cattle farm and Takahashi next to the Foreign Secretary.

"You don't understand the reason, Takahashi, the army is absolutely serious this time." Niuchang threw the cigarette **** under his feet, and then stretched his feet to grind hard.

"Really? Do you know why?" Takahashi sat in the co-pilot's seat and poked his head out of the window upon hearing this.

"Of course I know." Niuchang shook the cigarette case and took out a cigarette again.

"You have been working at the Tokyo Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Have you heard of the "Plum Organ" before?" Niuchang put the cigarette under his nose and sniffed it, then tucked the tobacco tightly on the back of his hand.

"Of course I have heard that I am not so ignorant yet, but what's the matter?" Takahashi was very dissatisfied with this senior's selling point, but in order to let the other party continue to talk, he could only hold back what was in his heart. patient.

"It stands to reason that this "Mei Organ" should have been disbanded in March, at least in the report to the Cabinet. But now you see, this organ has not disappeared, but has become more powerful. , And there is no public organization, but they can avoid the supervision of a group of higher-level departments, and they have become more unscrupulous in doing things." Niuchang sneered and picked up cigarettes.

"Does the Army Ministry have any knowledge of this situation?" Takahashi touched the pocket of his suit vest and pulled out a silver cigarette case.

"Maybe I know, maybe I don't know, who can know? But now I should know all of them, that's why it became like this." Niuchang replied like tongue twisters, and then pointed to the road. The Japanese soldiers behind the barbed wire fence were holding their loaded 38-type rifles sideways, their bayonets reflecting cold light in the sun.

"Have you heard the name "Southeast Trading Company" before?" Niuchang spit out smoke rings.

"It sounds like a business." Takahashi put the lighter in the lower pocket of the suit vest.

"It is true. This business was actually opened on the 76th, and the real boss behind the scenes is the "Mei Organ" in Shanghai." Niuchang took a cigarette and flicked the ashes with his index finger.

"On the surface, it is Qingqi Qingyin's contribution to this matter, but in reality, Major General Kagezuo is in full control behind it. They used this firm to start a material business with Chongqing," Mei The agency used its power to issue a large number of military passes, and the Southeast Trading Company used these certificates to transport a large number of mechanical parts, cotton yarn, cloth and even Western medicines to the Chongqing controlled area in exchange for military materials such as tung oil and bristles in Chongqing. Changing hands back and forth like this, the 76th made huge profits from it." Niuchang said with a cigarette in his mouth.

"Damn it, red deer! This is for the enemy, this group of shameless traitors!" Takahashi is a passionate young man. He has heard similar rumors from others before, and he always thought it was from anti-war elements. Propaganda, so when I see an example now, my heart is suddenly full of resentment.

"This is not regarded as a rival. After all, it has also exchanged the supplies that Japan is in short supply. Of course, it doesn’t matter if you want to understand that way. You know this is a big deal, and it involves several domestic chaebols. Neither of them is something people like us can afford. And this kind of thing doesn’t happen only here. As far as I know, the situation in North China is more serious.

But the problem is that this time, the handle was caught by the Germans. It is said that they have found part of the inside information. What's more troublesome is that it is said that the Navy Command has also begun to intervene. This is more than the Siemens bribery incident that year. A big scandal, so once the navy has the evidence, they will definitely get the incident out.

Think about it. Ordinary officers and soldiers fought **** battles with the China Army on the front line, but they started business with the enemy in the rear, and continuously carried important strategic materials to the enemy's hands. It is conceivable that this will severely hit the soldiers of the frontline troops and the morale of the 100 million nationals in the country, and even set off a wave of protests against the army, and the army will fall into an extremely unfavorable passive position.

So, this time the Army wants to wipe out all the evidence before the incident is exposed. You see, it is the 13th Army's troops who are doing it, and the manipulators behind it are actually the high-level army and province. "Niuchang took a puff of cigarette and then bounced the cigarette **** away.

"Does Your Excellency Matsuoka know what you are talking about?" Takahashi frowned and pinched out the cigarette butt.

"What do you think?" Niuchang didn't answer this junior's question~IndoMTL.com~ just showed a secret smile.

The area around No. 76 has been surrounded by heavy soldiers. From Kai Na Road in the north (Kinnear Road (now Wuding West Road)), to Yiding Pan Road in the west, and then to Yuyuan Road in the south. The road to the soil has been under martial law. The Jisfeier Road headed east, all the way to the Connaught Road (the western section of Kangding Road today), all of which were under the close control of the British and French joint forces.

During this period of time, even the vehicles of the consulates of various countries in Shanghai, do not want to pass through this area. Any personnel and vehicles, regardless of military, political, official, or civilian personnel, are subject to strict inspections and encounter suspicious identity. Those who have been detained on the spot will have to wait for the Japanese gendarmerie and the patrol room until they find that there are no problems before they can leave. Both the Japanese and the military in the concession received the same order, that is, when they encounter suspicious targets with weapons on them and daring to resist, they can kill them on the spot.
