Chapter 438 Invite Him Back
"The Chinese Expeditionary Force's Special Agent Division is different from other agencies. The intelligence they mainly collect is biased towards various changes on the battlefield."
"The Special High Section and the Mei Agency are usually responsible for dealing with the Military Control Commission and the Red Party."
"Now Nan Tian is in a difficult position and has no one to rely on."
"Otherwise, why would she stay at No. 76?"
Li Qun nodded and said, "Chief Chen is right. The Ministry also saw this point and asked you to come back to take charge."
"But I can't do much." Chen Yang waved his hand helplessly and said, "Things are different now. I am like a clay Buddha crossing the river, and I can't save myself."
"The Manchurian Railway's top brass and local officials put pressure on the expeditionary force to kick me out, with the goal of taking over the southern transportation line."
"If I get involved in what's going on here again, I don't know what accusations people will put on me."
"They are destroying the bridge after crossing it." Li Qun said angrily: "Everyone knows that the transportation network in the south was built by Chief Chen."
"Now that the network is built, they want to take advantage of it. But it's not that cheap."
Chen Yang made a silent gesture and said, "Director Li, please don't talk about topics that will destroy the harmony of the empire."
"Everything you and I do is for the cause of the empire. What does a little injustice matter?"
Li Qun smiled flatteringly: "Yes, yes, Chief Chen is very modest and I deeply admire you..."
"Haha." Chen Yang laughed bitterly and said, "How can I be so humble? I'm just trying to protect myself."
"Director Li, I'll leave the matters here to you. I'm going back to the City Hall first."
"Remember my words, don't cause me any trouble."
"The Ministry has remembered this."
Shanghai Stock Exchange, City Hall.
Not long after Chen Yang returned, Liu Bingzhong was also sent back by Agent No. 76.
However, not only was he sent back, No. 76 also specially arranged some people to provide close protection.
As to what the purpose of this protection is, it is unknown.
Shanghai, Chinese Expeditionary Force Headquarters, Commander's Office.
Yoshimoto Sadaichi looked at General Nishio in front of him stubbornly, and his eyes seemed to be ready to chop the supreme commander of the South to death with a knife.
The Japanese Army has a long tradition of subordinates rebelling against their superiors, and General Nishio was also very troubled by this. He was very unhappy with Yoshimoto Sadaichi's aggressive attitude.
However, if he could not give the other party a clear answer, Commander Nishio was really afraid that Yoshimoto Sadaichi would draw the samurai sword in the office and have a samurai duel with him.
"Yoshimoto-kun, we are already coordinating the supplies."
"The Army Department has approved the 11th Army's plan to attack Changsha and will fully support it."
"Coordinate, try your best, that's enough, Lord Nishio." Yoshimoto Sadaichi said angrily: "The soldiers on the front line are fighting hard on the battlefield, you are in Shanghai, just need to ensure that there are no problems with our supplies."
"Can't you even do such a small thing?"
"We originally planned to launch an attack on Changsha on September 1st, launching military operations from three places: northern Jiangxi, northern Hunan, and southern Hubei."
"We will strive to achieve our operational objectives within three months and reach the gates of Changsha."
"However, because the logistics department does not have enough supplies, our plan has been delayed again and again. Now it is the 12th, and the supplies we need have not arrived at the designated location."
"Isn't the Zongzi Course known as the fastest and most efficient transportation route in the country?"
"Now, why can't even this little bit of supplies be delivered?"
"Commander Gangcun has issued an ultimatum: military action must be launched against Changsha by the day after tomorrow, September 14th at the latest."
"If the war process is affected because of the lack of supplies, we must complain to the mainland."
"When the time comes, I'll see how Lord Nishio explains to the Minister of War."
"Damn it, Yoshimoto-kun, are you planning to use the title of Army Minister to pressure me?" Commander Nishio's face suddenly darkened when he heard this. Yoshimoto Sadaichi, a small major general staff officer, didn't even give him any face.
Knock, knock, knock. There was a knock on the door and Zhong Xigong pushed open the office door and walked in.
Seeing the two people's twitchy expressions, Zhong Xigong didn't know what to say for a moment.
However, before he could say anything, Yoshimoto Sadaichi couldn't help but open fire on him.
Looking at Nakanishi Kokichi who came in, Motoyoshi said coldly: "Director Nakanishi, it seems that the responsibility of your special agent department is to assist us in collecting intelligence on the battlefield and ensure that there are no mistakes in logistics supplies."
"I heard that you have been promoted to the position of advisor to the Chinese Expeditionary Force Headquarters. How come you, as an advisor, can't even handle the issue of supplies?"
"Are you going to ask our soldiers to tighten their belts and fight hand-to-hand with the Chinese army?"
"Director Nakanishi, can you please stop thinking about getting promoted and making money, and also think about our soldiers at the front? Even if I beg you, those supplies can't be delayed any longer."
Listening to the other party's sarcasm, Gong Nakanishi looked a little embarrassed. Glancing at Commander Nishio who had a gloomy face, Gong Nakanishi had already guessed what had happened.
"Chief of Staff Yoshimoto, don't worry, I just came back from the material transfer center."
"Section Chief Yoshikawa has made preparations. In order to cooperate with Changsha's operations, Section Chief Yoshikawa stopped three trains and opened a special line for Changsha."
"After all the supplies are prepared, I will set off with you to Changsha the day after tomorrow morning. It will definitely not affect the war."
"That would be great." Yoshimoto Sadaichi's expression eased a little, and he said, "I hope Director Nakanishi will do what he says. The day after tomorrow morning, I want to see the necessary supplies and leave with me."
After saying this, Yoshimoto Sadaichi prepared to leave the office.
"Wait a minute, Yoshimoto-kun." Nakanishi Gong said, "The Special Division has received news that the Military Control Commission has planned a ghost operation, and it seems that the target is you."
"Military assassins?" Yoshimoto Sadaichi said disdainfully, "I've seen everything on the battlefield, in the hail of bullets. Do you think I'm afraid of a few assassins?"
"Director Nakanishi, thank you for your concern. You just need to prepare the supplies we need."
"As for my personal safety, you don't need to worry about it."
After saying this, Yoshimoto Sada walked away without even looking at the two of them.
"Damn, this Yoshimoto Sadaichi is so rude." The veins on Commander Nishio's forehead were popping out due to Yoshimoto Sadaichi's anger.
"Mr. Nishio, I understand your anger." Nakanishi Gong sighed, "But it is true that we did not do well enough in this matter."
Commander Nishio waved his hand and said, "That's enough. Now is not the time for self-examination. Nakanishi-kun, what is the situation with Yoshikawa Yujiro?"
"So many problems have arisen in just one week since we took over. What's going on? Do we need to invite Chen Yang back?"
Urge, reward, comment, thank...
