The Spy

Chapter 341 The Battle is Finally Coming

The contradiction between the navy and the army has long been irreconcilable.

After Japan's defeat, the Minister of the Army wanted to take the Minister of the Navy with him before his death, which was enough to show their relationship.

"Stationmaster, I understand this."

Zhao San responded with a smile. He didn't know much about Japan's future, but at least he knew what had happened.

The conflict between the Japanese Navy and Army is well known to everyone.

Ishida is no match for the webmaster at all, especially in politics. The webmaster definitely beats Ishida. Let's see how Ishida dies this time.

The Japanese Concession was in chaos, and Ishida was taken to the police station. The French were quite polite to him, holding him in solitary confinement without torturing him.

Unable to see anyone, Ishida was left alone with his thoughts.

He wanted to bribe the police to help him pass on a message.

If Muto betrayed, the Chinese would probably know all their plans, for these were things Muto was responsible for.

Those who are outside, especially those in South City, are in danger.

Unfortunately, the police rejected his request.

Ishida was a person who was under guard under the order of the police commissioner himself. These patrolmen were not so stupid as to help him for a little money. If they were discovered by the police commissioner, taking off their black skin would be the lightest punishment. If they were not careful, they would be locked up.

The Japanese Concession was in chaos.

Muto killed Count Anten's illegitimate son, but did not kill the servant. His master was killed, so the servant immediately asked for help from the Japanese Concession and informed the navy, asking them to help send a telegram to the country.

The people in the consulate were not soldiers, and they did not participate in the sea and land disputes. The killing of the count's son in China was no trivial matter, so they immediately investigated it and also put pressure on the French Concession.

The results they obtained surprised them.

The person who killed Count Anten's illegitimate son turned out to be Ishida from the Special Higher Police.

The Consul General came forward in person and found that the French had already captured Ishida. In addition to Ishida, there were also intelligence team leader Suzuki and others. They were caught on the spot and were caught red-handed.

The angry consul general scolded many people.

At the Special High Section headquarters, a secretary hurried into the office with a telegram.

"Chief Section Chief, something happened in Shanghai."

Tsuchihara looked up instantly and grabbed the telegram.

The telegram was sent from the Shanghai Consulate, questioning what they wanted to do and whether they wanted to provoke a war between the domestic navy and the army.

"Ishida killed Count Anteng's son?"

An illegitimate child is also someone else's son, why did Ishida do this?

"Send a telegram to the Shanghai Special High Section and ask them to redeem Ishida immediately."

Tsuchihara was very calm. The consulate told him that Ishida went to the concession to kill people. Now Ishida and Suzuki were both caught by the police and were in the hands of the French.

"Yes."

The secretary hurried to send a telegram. In the French Concession, Ishida was being interrogated.

There was a lot of gunfire between the French Concession and the International Settlement today. They learned the identities of those who were killed, and they were all Japanese.

Everyone understood that this was a blow to the Special High Section by the Military Intelligence Department.

Many Chinese policemen cheered secretly.

"Why did you kill Anten?"

The chief inspector of the police station interrogated the case personally, and Ishida was shocked when he heard his words.

"I didn't kill anyone. I didn't even know who he was. My subordinates betrayed me and told me that he was a Chinese agent, and then deliberately killed him to frame me."

Ishida shook his head slightly, and the chief inspector laughed. Even a child could not be fooled by such a lie.

Do you really think he doesn't know the conflicts between the Japanese navy and army?

The chief inspector is also a Chinese. He is happy to watch the Japanese fight each other. Ishida is a big fish. If the Japanese want to take him away, they will definitely not be able to do so without paying a huge price.

He could make some money this time.

The policeman in the International Settlement had made a lot of money by arresting Japanese, and now it was finally his turn.

"You don't want to tell the truth, right? It doesn't matter. Your navy has already come and asked us to hand you over. Do you think it's possible for you not to tell the truth once you are in their hands?"

"Navy, why are they here?"

Ishida was shocked, wondering how the navy was involved in this matter.

"You look very good in your acting."

The chief inspector shook his head and stood up without asking any more questions.

Ishita says it doesn’t matter whether he tells her or not, they are fighting among themselves and it has nothing to do with him, he just wants money.

"Wait, who was killed by Muto?"

Ishida shouted hurriedly, and the chief inspector turned around with a smile: "In your country, Count Anten's son."

In Japan, Count Anten was furious.

His son was killed. Although he was an illegitimate child, he acknowledged it, and the person who killed him was the army.

Never forgive.

The Shanghai Special High Police was leaderless, and the telecommunications team leader had to go in person with the money to redeem the hostages. Unfortunately, the French refused him.

He wanted to meet Cartel, but he was not at the right level, so he was not able to meet him.

"Thank you very much, Mr. Carter."

At this time, Cartell was receiving a guest, who was a general of the Japanese Navy. The murder of Count Anteng's son was no trivial matter, as he had worked with Count Anteng before.

He will definitely help Count Anteng to avenge this grudge.

"He's in the police station. You can pick him up anytime."

The Japanese Navy gave a lot of money to the cartel, and Xu Qingyun gave him some, and he made a lot of money this time.

"I'll go."

The navy admiral stood up. He knew that the army would not stand idly by and that the person had to be taken away as soon as possible.

All the captured Japanese were taken away by him.

As for those who were beaten to death, it had nothing to do with him.

Ishida followed the navy people away, and when he noticed it was them, his face turned extremely ugly, even frightened.

He already knew who Mutou killed. Xu Qingyun was cruel enough to instigate Mutou to kill people. He couldn't explain himself now.

The navy wouldn't listen to his explanation at all.

His only hope is his father in China, but now he can't even send any news and has no way to contact his father.

"waste."

Upon learning that Ishida was taken away by the navy, the Shanghai Special High Police did not dare to conceal it and reported it immediately.

Tu Yuan was shaking with anger. He had thought that Ishida was a capable young man who could help him get rid of Xu Qingyun, but unfortunately, he got caught in it himself.

At this time, Tu Yuan was still unclear about the specific situation, but he could guess that it was all done by Xu Qingyun.

Count Anten is convinced that he was the one who killed his son, and the navy will not spare Ishida.

Ishita is finished.

"Thank you, Mr. Carter."

At Shanghai Station, Xu Qingyun hung up the phone with a smile on his face.

Cartel handed Ishida over to the Japanese Navy, which was the best outcome for him.

This time Ishida is dead.

Muto has come to his side and is temporarily hidden by him. Next, Muto will go to Hong Kong and then issue a statement to confirm that it was Ishida who asked him to kill someone.

The reason is simple, Ishida can't stand Anten.

It doesn’t matter whether the Navy believes it or not. They will not let go of the opportunity to strike the opponent.

Once Ishida fell, and they arrested so many people, the Shanghai Special High Police was essentially ruined. There was no way they could rebuild it without a few months.

At least during the Battle of Shanghai, they couldn't cause any trouble.

Xu Qingyun was not interested in the dispute between the army and the navy, but he received good news three days later. Ishida was dead. He got into a fight with someone in the navy prison and was accidentally beaten to death.

No need to worry about Ishida's threats anymore.

"General Zhang, the goods have arrived, come and pick them up."

At the end of June, Xu Qingyun personally called or sent telegrams to notify all agents to pick up the goods.

He had accumulated a lot of sulfa drugs and sent them a batch first.

Send out another batch after the war breaks out.

"it is good."

Zhang Xizhi smiled and nodded. Sulfanilamide did help him make a lot of money, but he also wanted to spend the money on the soldiers.

He stored a batch of sulfa drugs and gave them to anyone in school who needed them.

Others sent people to Shanghai to pick up the goods.

Xu Fuzhong finally breathed a sigh of relief. There were too many accumulated sulfonamides. If it weren't for the fact that some businesses were making money all the time, they would probably have problems with funds.

Now that I’ve seen the money coming in, the money in my account is finally increasing.

In early July, Xu Qingyun rushed to Nanjing. He would come for two days every month to teach students.

Many students like to listen to his classes.

On July 5, Xu Qingyun returned to Shanghai.

"Stationmaster."

Yan Ming came to the train station to pick someone up. Xu Qingyun sighed slightly and said, "Go back."

In two days, eight years of suffering will begin for the Chinese people. He has already done everything he can in advance. It is a pity that he alone cannot change history.

If the army could cross over in an organized manner, neither the Japanese nor anyone else would be a match for China.

Unfortunately, these are only his imagination, not reality.

Shanghai Special High Section, Tsuchihara’s face was gloomy.

He had been here for several days and had found out everything.

Xu Qingyun sent people to kidnap Muto's fiancée, but unfortunately the country did not take it seriously. The domestic police treated this case as an ordinary kidnapping case and gave up when they failed to find the person.

In the future, he will strengthen the protection of people around the agents.

Not only family members, but also close relatives such as fiancées should be included, and the Chinese should not be given any chances.

Muto deserves to die, but Ishida is too disappointing for him.

He actually fell for such a simple plan. It was suspicious that Muto sent everyone out to carry out the mission, but Ishida trusted him so much.

Ishida died, Suzuki died too.

Today, the Shanghai Special High Police Department is essentially shut down. Without intelligence personnel, can it still be called an intelligence department?

He stayed in Shanghai to rebuild the Shanghai Special High Section.

Shanghai is too important and Xu Qingyun is here, so Tsuchihara has a headache choosing the section chief.

He couldn't take charge personally, so he had to choose a truly capable section chief, otherwise the Shanghai Special High Section would still not be able to defeat Xu Qingyun.

"Stationmaster, what a pity."

Zhao Sanlai reported to Xu Qingyun that Muto had already issued a statement in Hong Kong, saying that it was Ishida who instructed him to kill.

He knew that after he killed someone, Ishida would definitely use him as a scapegoat, so he ran away early.

It doesn't matter whether anyone believes these words or not, the Navy will use this reason to nail Ishida's guilt.

It is said that Count Ishida almost went crazy in the country, keeping an eye on Count Anten every day, and the two families were already at loggerheads.

"It doesn't matter. I'll develop new eyes later."

Xu Qingyun shook his head. Zhao San was talking about another spy who had been developed before and was found by Tu Yuan.

Tsuchihara was no mediocre person, he came to Shanghai in person, and the traitor could not hide himself.

What's more, they used kidnapping as a method.

On July 8, newspaper offices across the country continued to print extra copies early in the morning, and newsboys went out at dawn, shouting continuously.

"The Japanese army bombarded Wanping, and the war started again."

"Big event..."

In the morning, Xu Qingyun led his men out of Shanghai Station and heard the voice of a newsboy not long after they walked.

This battle finally came.

"Buy all the newspapers for today."

Xu Qingyun gave instructions to Zhao San and walked around outside. He saw many people reading newspapers and today's newspapers were selling very quickly.

From the old man’s mansion, curses like “damn it” continued to be heard.

In the Military Intelligence Department, everyone comes and goes in a hurry.

In particular, the Peking Station and Tianjin Station received orders to investigate the movements of the Japanese army and find out what they exactly wanted to do.

No one knew at this time that this was the beginning of a war.

In Singapore, Mr. Chen also saw the newspaper.

Like Xu Qingyun, he bought every newspaper on the street, mainly to read reports on the war.

The Japanese wanted to enter the city to search, claiming that their soldiers were missing. When they did not get permission, they directly bombarded Wanping City.

After reading all the news, Mr. Chen felt cold in his heart.

Everything was just as Xu Qingyun said. Some Japanese were not satisfied with the status quo and took the initiative to attack.

He didn't know how the war was going, he only knew that it was still going on.

Can the Guo army hold it?

"Send a telegram to Qingyun and ask him what he thinks about this matter."

Mr. Chen called his son over, and the telegram soon reached Xu Qingyun's hands.

There was a lot of content. Mr. Chen took the initiative to ask whether this dispute could be resolved through negotiations like previous ones, and whether countries such as Britain, France and the United States would intervene to put pressure on the Japanese.

Can the Japanese give up the war now?
With a sigh, Xu Qingyun called Mr. Chen back.

The content is very simple.

All-out war.

There were only four words. When Mr. Chen saw Xu Qingyun's reply, his face showed pain. He no longer doubted Xu Qingyun's words. Xu Qingyun said that it was an all-out war, so it was definitely not a small fight.

It’s only been more than half a year. Xu Qingyun said before that it would be within two or three years. There simply isn’t that much time.

When the war breaks out, the people suffer.

On the 9th, the Japanese army falsely claimed that "the missing Japanese soldiers have returned to the team and it is a misunderstanding that we hope to resolve peacefully", which gave Mr. Chen a glimmer of hope. He thought that Xu Qingyun must have guessed wrong this time and there would not be a full-scale war.

Unfortunately, he did not feel happy for long. Two days later, on the 11th, the war broke out again and the Japanese army continued to bombard Wanping City.

The Japanese cabinet even issued an order to send seven divisions to China.

At this time, there was a protest across the country, and many students and workers took to the streets to strongly protest against the Japanese invasion.

On the 16th, Japan issued another order, deciding to go to war with China with 400,000 troops and to quickly occupy China.

"Dad, the price of sulfa has gone up."

Chen Changcun came to the office and whispered, "Mr. Chen sighed. He knew that the price of sulfonamide had increased. With such a big battle, the price of sulfonamide, a scarce drug, would definitely increase."

The Chen family will make a lot of money from this.

But he would rather not have a rise than suffer domestic disaster.

"Stop selling it completely. All future sulfanilamide production will be handled by Xu Qingyun."

There was a war going on in the country, and the sulfa drugs that Mr. Chen had previously accumulated were put to good use. These drugs could save more soldiers' lives.

And he knew that Xu Qingyun had no plans to raise the price of sulfa drugs.

It is still supplied to agents at the original price, but the price on the black market has increased a lot.
