Chapter 763 The reassuring student
“Master, if there is something Wen Tao doesn’t understand, you can just teach him. Why get so angry.” Mrs. Chen made a cup of ginseng tea and said comfortingly.
“It’s not that he doesn’t understand, it’s that he is too self-righteous.” Chen Zhuan snorted.
Cheng Qianfan left Chen Zhuan's residence, and Li Hao and several people immediately greeted him.
“Brother Fan.”
“Let’s go.” Xiao Cheng patted the dust on his clothes, bent down and got into the car.
The two cars in front and behind also started up at the same time, guarding Mr. Cheng's car and drove away quickly.
…
Lu Xinge was sitting at a tea stall on the side of the road, watching the convoy of "Mr. Xiao Cheng" leaving, with a solemn expression.
“Mr. Xiao Cheng of the Central Patrol Room of the French Concession is one of the few people closest to the Japanese in the French Concession.” Liu Haishan said, “Sooner or later, this person will definitely become a traitor.”
Lu Xingge felt bitter in his heart. He couldn't imagine that if his second brother really went to that point, would he really want to kill his sworn brother with his own hands?
Second brother, the heroic spirit of the third brother is not far away. If you really regard the thief as your father, you are really hopeless!
At this time, the door of Chen Zhuan's residence opened, and a man in his early thirties said a few words to the concierge and walked out unsteadily.
“This brother is Zhang Guoqing, the brother who shared a meal with me in the Northeast back then.” Liu Haishan whispered, “If you want to get the topographical map of Chen Zhuan’s residence, just look for him.”
“I’ll leave this to Brother Liu,” Lu Xingge said with his hands clasped in fists.
"It's a small matter." Liu Haishan said with a smile, "Liu is bound to contribute to the fight against Japan."
…
Hongkou.
At the home of Hyōtaro Imamura.
Cheng Qianfan brought a fine red wine gift box to visit the teacher.
Imamura Kogoro greeted him warmly, took the red wine gift box casually, put it in his hands, and the two looked at each other and smiled.
“Where is the teacher?”
“In the study room upstairs, Kentaro is just going there.”
Cheng Qianfan talked with Kogoro Imamura again, and then went upstairs to the study.
…
“Have you gone to see Chen Zhuan?” Imamura Hyōtaro put down the documents in his hands and asked.
“Yes, teacher.”
“Tell me what your impression is of this person.”
"He is a person." Cheng Qianfan thought for a while and said, "There is no real scholar under the reputation. Although students have always despised the Chinese people, they have to admit that this person is indeed very capable."
Hyoutaro Imamura laughed loudly. He motioned Kentaro Miyazaki to sit down and talk, "Chen Zhuan is a rare diplomatic talent. Even I have a lot of admiration for this person."
“This person can actually make the teacher look at him differently?” Cheng Qianfan was surprised.
“China is poor and weak. When this person served as a diplomat for the Beiyang Government, he was able to withstand the coercion of Tsarist Russia with a weak position and preserve the suzerainty over Outer Mongolia for the Beiyang Government. It is quite remarkable.”
At the beginning of the Republic of China, the Tsarist Russian government plotted against Outer Mongolia and instigated the princes of Outer Mongolia to seek independence and create trouble.
Chen Zhuan was appointed as the Beiyang Government’s “Minister Plenipotentiary to Conference on Outer Mongolia Incidents”.
The three parties lasted nine months of difficult negotiations. At that time, the Beiyang government was unable to use military means as a backup for the negotiations due to the "Twenty-One Incident". Chen Zhuan only relied on words and argued hard, although the final result was predictable.
However, this person also successfully fought for the Beiyang government to confer the title of Jebtsundamba and the right to send personnel in Kulun to monitor the princely regime of Outer Mongolia, and ultimately prompted Jebtsundamba to revoke his independence.
In the context of declining national power, it is commendable that this person can achieve such results.
…
“Kentaro, what do you understand from this incident?” Imamura Hyoutaro asked.
"Without guns and weapons, the country would have no diplomacy at all." Cheng Qianfan said, his eyes full of pride, "Our Empire of Japan is like the rising sun, and the shame that happened to China will never be the same." It can’t happen to the Empire.”
His eyes sparkled with pride, “Students are proud to be born in such a great country!”
"Well said, a weak country has no diplomacy." Imamura Hyōtaro nodded slightly, "Countless predecessors of the empire have opened up the Sunshine Avenue for us. What we can do is to push the gears of history and make the Japanese Empire proud as never before. Stand erect in the world!"
“The students have been taught.” Cheng Qianfan said respectfully.
“Did you drink with Ohta Yuichi from the Watanabe Brigade some time ago?” Imamura Hyōtaro suddenly asked.
"Yes, teacher." Cheng Qianfan replied, "Young Master Atsushi of the Kawada family is about to serve at the Military Police Headquarters. The students held a banquet and invited Ota-kun, who once served as the aide to Commander Ikeuchi, to the banquet."
“Did Yuichi Ohta say something he shouldn’t have said at the banquet?” Imamura Hyōtaro asked again.
"Huh?" Cheng Qianfan showed an expression of surprise and thought, "Isn't something that I shouldn't have said?"
He saw Hyōtaro Imamura's serious expression and immediately became nervous, "Teacher, we were just chatting to enhance our relationship. We didn't say anything sensitive."
“It’s not you, it’s Yuichi Ohta!” Imamura Hyōtaro shook his head and said.
“Students are stupid, I hope the teacher can give me some advice.” Cheng Qianfan thought for a while, shook his head blankly, and said.
“Did Yuichi Ohta say that the Watanabe Brigade is about to raid the surrounding area?” Imamura Hyoutaro asked, his eyes fixed on Miyazaki Kentaro.
…
"Ah, this." Cheng Qianfan suddenly understood and nodded, "Atsushi likes to travel around. I persuaded him that the surrounding area is not peaceful, so it is best not to run around. It may be because of this that it caused Ota-kun's displeasure, so he I said that the locust army is preparing to sweep away the surrounding resistance elements, and then Duren can travel freely."
“As a military officer, I can’t control my mouth after drinking.” Imamura Hyoutarou snorted.
He was quite satisfied with Miyazaki Kentaro’s answers, which were consistent with what he learned from Sakamoto Yoshino:
It was Ota Yuichi who drank too much and took the initiative to tell the military action plan in order to please the young master of the Kawada family. It was not Kentaro or Yoshino who took the initiative to inquire.
This, to a certain extent, cleared Miyazaki Kentaro and Sakamoto Yoshino from initial suspicion.
As for Kawada Atsuhito, he himself was not included in the scope of the investigation. It is absolutely impossible for the young master of the Kawada family to have anything to do with the rebels.
In addition, when Imamura Hyōtaro first asked, Miyazaki Kentaro was completely confused and didn’t know what happened. He even thought he said something wrong at the dinner.
Hyoutaro Imamura prides himself on being a careful observer. Kentaro's expression cannot be faked. It also shows that Kentaro did not take the military intelligence accidentally leaked by Ohta Yuichi to heart.
He was very satisfied and relieved with his student.
Hmph, those guys from the military department, in all likelihood, it was the military themselves who leaked the military intelligence, but they want to shift the responsibility to others. It's really disgusting!
