Chapter 887 Chapter 428 Ota’s Request
The smile on Cheng Qianfan's face faded and his face darkened. He gave Yuichi Ohta a deep look and said, "Ota-kun, you and I are friends. I won't call the Military Police Headquarters personally. I will also ask Ohta-kun to turn left when you go out." , don’t make the mistake of yourself.”
The Japanese Military Police Headquarters in Shanghai is about six or seven miles away from here. Turn left when you go out and walk for a few miles, then turn right and continue for two miles.
With that said, Cheng Qianfan stood up directly and looked at Ohta Yuichi with a very serious expression, "Ota-kun, in one hour, I will call the Military Police Headquarters to confirm."
Ota Yuichi looked at Kentaro Miyazaki in shock, then understood that the other party had misunderstood something, and quickly explained.
"Miyazaki-kun misunderstood." Ohta Yuichi said, "Miyazaki-kun's loyalty to the empire cannot be doubted. What I mean is that Jiujiu trades between the north, south and east, and may even have the opportunity to penetrate into the New Fourth Army's defense zone, maybe..."
"Absolutely impossible." Cheng Qianfan said resolutely, "I have always strictly restrained myself. Although I cannot guarantee that everyone in Jiujiu Trading will be loyal and supportive of the empire from the bottom of their hearts, they will never dare to liaise with Japanese haters. .”
“I mean, maybe there are some people without Miyazaki-kun’s knowledge.” Ohta Yuichi said.
"Absolutely impossible." Cheng Qianfan looked seriously. He looked at Ohta Yuichi with anger visible in his eyes, "Ota-kun, I cannot accept your baseless speculation."
"Miyazaki-kun, I mean without your knowledge..." Ohta Yuichi emphasized again.
“Impossible.” Cheng Qianfan said flatly.
In any case, no matter what Ohta Yuichi said, Cheng Qianfan would never admit that Jiujiu Trading had any connection with the New Fourth Army.
Ota Yuichi put down the teacup in his hand and looked at Kentaro Miyazaki.
He realized that no matter how he explained or made any guarantee, Kentaro Miyazaki would never admit that Jiujiu Trading had any contact with the New Fourth Army.
Jiujiu Trading really has no connection with the New Fourth Army?
Ota Yuichi naturally didn’t believe it.
Jiujiu Trading's smuggling business is very large and spreads around Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai, and even in some places in Jiangxi, Anhui, and Shandong. Jiujiu Trading's tentacles have touched it.
Which smuggling business is the most profitable?
It is natural to do business that others dare not do and others cannot do.
The empire is encircling and oppressing the New Fourth Army's sphere of influence. It is extremely difficult for the New Fourth Army to obtain even the most common civilian supplies. Under this situation, any businessman who can import supplies into the New Fourth Army's defense zone can earn a lot of money. Benefit.
Jiujiu Trading is one of those merchants that has goods in hand and has the ability to import supplies into the New Fourth Army defense zone.
Under the constraints of Kentaro Miyazaki, Jiujiu Trading may not dare to sell first-class contraband such as firearms, ammunition, medicines, electronic pipes, and gasoline to the New Fourth Army defense zone. However, ordinary controlled materials such as grain, cloth, and salt can also be profitable. It's quite rich. Faced with such a piece of fat, Jiujiu Trading - or the money-grubbing Kentaro Miyazaki can't help but take a bite. At the very least, he will acquiesce in his subordinates' actions.
However, it is obvious that Kentaro Miyazaki is a very cunning and cautious guy. Even in private communication, even in this kind of 'frank' communication between friends, Miyazaki is so careful not to leave any trace behind. Verbal manipulation.
“Hahaha.” Ohta Yuichi laughed, “Miyazaki-kun is strict, so I’m relieved.”
He looked at Kentaro Miyazaki and said, "Miyazaki-kun, there is really something I want to ask you for help with."
"Oh?" Miyazaki Kentaro smiled faintly, but the kindness on his face was much lighter, "Ota-kun said, if you can help, you should do your best."
He also felt a little regretful in his heart.
…
"No, absolutely not." Cheng Qianfan was firm and shook his head in refusal.
Ota Yuichi told him about a plan of the Japanese army.
The Japanese army suspected that a section of the New Fourth Army had jumped out of the Maoshan area and was most likely to secretly arrive in the Meicun area of Wuxi for activities.
However, neither the intelligence held by the Super High School nor other intelligence agencies of the Japanese army received intelligence warnings from Umemura.
This only strengthened the Japanese army's suspicion that there was a problem in Meicun. Moreover, Ohta Yuichi suspected that the New Fourth Army had destroyed the grassroots organizations of the Locust Army in Meicun, such as the maintenance committee.
Therefore, Yuichi Ohta thought of a strategy:
He planned to use Jiujiu Trading, which had extensive trade routes, to inquire about the situation in Wuxi, especially Meicun, and to investigate whether the New Fourth Army was actually stationed here.
Cheng Qianfan almost did not hesitate, he flatly rejected Ohta Yuichi.
"Miyazaki-kun, as an imperial agent, you serve the Locust Army and provide support for the Locust Army's intelligence activities. This is your obligation." Yuichi Ohta was a little anxious when he saw Kentaro Miyazaki's refusal, and his face darkened, and he said.
“I, Kentaro Miyazaki, am sworn in with the rebels.” Cheng Qianfan said sternly, “Jiujiu Trading must not have any contact with the New Fourth Army.”
"This is required for military intelligence investigation." Ohta Yuichi said, "The empire allows it."
"This will set a bad precedent." Cheng Qianfan struggled, "As an imperial agent, my own position will naturally not have any problems, but I am worried that my subordinates will be negatively affected."
He looked at Yuichi Ohta with a serious look on his face.
Ota Yuichi secretly cursed in his mind. If it were not for maintaining the alliance, it would most likely be destroyed by the New Fourth Army. He would not need to think of relying on Kentaro Miyazaki's Jiujiu Trading to gather information.
For the Japanese, the Maintenance Association is not only a grassroots tool for them to maintain enslavement and rule over the common people in the occupied areas, but also their eyes to monitor and control the grassroots places in the occupied areas.
Among them, including the Super High School, the Gendarmerie Headquarters and other large and small secret service agencies, if they want to understand and control the local situation, they usually need the cooperation and help of the maintenance committee.
Two years ago, after the Japanese army occupied Shanghai, they rapidly advanced into the hinterland of Jiangsu and Zhejiang.
The Japanese invasion brought great chaos and disaster to the Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai regions.
The most direct manifestations are the indiscriminate bombing and turmoil before the occupation, and the indiscriminate killing of innocent people, robbery of people's property, and mutilation of women after the occupation.
In addition, because the Kuomintang government agencies and government officials had evacuated the cities and towns before the arrival of the Japanese troops, part of the Kuomintang military and police system was also broken into pieces and retreated to the countryside.
In this way, the temporary political vacuum has led to anarchy in large and small towns. Coupled with the leadership and instigation of Japanese agents who have long been lurking in various places, as well as the large and small traitors who have long been attracted by them, local hooligans have Then they took the opportunity to plunder and create huge chaos.
