Chapter 271 The Price Is A Bit High
Chapter 271 The Price Is A Bit High
Li Qun sighed: "Captain Wu is really a talented person."
"It's settled. Captain Wu, tell me the plan in detail and compile it into a report. I'll send it to Commander Chen."
Shanghai, Plum Blossom Tower.
Chen Yang took the report handed over by Li Qun and just glanced at it. He had already concluded in his heart that this was the work of Wu Sibao.
When those hooligans have no money, they dare to go to restaurants and eat for free with a cockroach in their pockets.
He dares to extort money from people by simply stuffing some opium into their goods.
Otherwise why are they called ruffians and scoundrels?
A gentleman like Li Qun couldn't think of such a despicable trick, but gangsters like Wu Sibao were familiar with it and could use it easily.
"This is a good idea, but it's still missing something." Chen Yang said with a smile after reading it.
"Something missing? What?" Li Qun was a little confused.
"Props." Chen Yang smiled, motioned Li Qun to sit down, picked up the phone and dialed the internal line.
After a while, Qingqi Qingyin hurried down.
"Mr. Chen, why are you so anxious to let me come down? Has something happened?" Qingqi Qingyin started yelling as soon as he entered the door.
"It's nothing, Qingqijun, come and take a look. This is the plan designed by Director Li," Chen Yang handed over the plan with a smile.
Qingqi Qingyin took the plan and started reading it.
Most of the high-ranking Japanese military officials have studied Chinese, and Haruki Yoshitane is no exception.
After reading a few lines of words, Qingqi Qingyin looked up at Li Qun and exclaimed: "Director Li's suggestions are very practical."
Chen Yang smiled and said, "I also think this plan is feasible, but it's still missing something important."
"Mr. Chen, what do you mean?" Qingqi Qingyin was a little confused.
"Since we are doing a show, we have to do it in full. I wonder if Colonel Haruki has any documents that look important but are not that important."
"We also need some props that will make the French indefensible."
"You know, there aren't many important documents in my material transfer center. Most of them are just some material transfer orders."
"I see. Mr. Chen is really thoughtful." Qingqi Qingyin thought for a while and said, "Mr. Nakajima is doing a research report on the Shanghai market recently."
"There are a few pages of very important information, and the rest is just some ordinary survey data."
"I can pull out the important pages and only have the general survey data."
"If you look at it from the surface, this thing is completely top secret."
"However, without those few pages, this document becomes less important and is perfect for use as bait."
"That's good." Chen Yang nodded slightly and said, "Everything is ready, Director Li, thank you for your hard work."
.....
Shancheng, Military Control Commission Office.
Zheng Jiemin and Boss Dai looked at the information on the table and both fell into deep thought.
According to the latest intelligence sent back by Caishen, the Japanese intend to attack the French and demand that they close the Yunnan-Vietnam Railway.
Now a large part of the various international supplies have to be transported to the country via the Yunnan-Vietnam Railway.
Moreover, not only do we need it, but major foreign trading companies also rely on this railway to transport materials that are expressly prohibited by the Japanese and earn high profits.
The Japanese wanted to close the railway, but neither the Chinese nor the French government would agree.
Boss Dai asked solemnly, "Yaoquan, why do you think the Japanese suddenly want to attack the Yunnan-Vietnam Railway?"
"It can't be said that this idea came to mind suddenly," Zheng Jiemin said, "The Japanese have been wanting to attack this railway for a long time."
"It's just that they couldn't find a suitable excuse, and Guangxi is still in our hands, so they couldn't get their hands on it."
"I think it's because of the chain reaction caused by the Golden Lily Plan this time."
Boss Dai raised his eyebrows slightly and asked, "You mean the deal between Mr. Song and Blair?"
"That's right." Zheng Jiemin sighed, "This operation was too successful. The more the French consulate denied it, the more the Japanese believed it was true."
"They can't find evidence that this deal existed, and they can't find evidence that this deal didn't exist."
"According to the Japanese's usual style, they would rather believe it than not."
"In order to prevent large quantities of weapons from being transported to China via the Yunnan-Vietnam Railway, the best option is to cut off the transportation line."
"In this case, even if this deal really happens, we won't be able to get the supplies."
"Cutting off the firewood from under the cauldron. This is obviously a tactic used by the fat man." Boss Dai nodded, agreeing with Zheng Jiemin's words.
Zheng Jiemin said cautiously, "Director, the Yunnan-Vietnam Railway is a very serious matter. What are you going to do?"
Boss Dai frowned and said, "I have discussed this with my superiors. They said that this railway is of utmost importance and nothing must happen to it."
"For this, we can sacrifice some interests, as long as France is willing to take the lead."
Zheng Jiemin shook his head and said, "The French are not that easy to fool."
Boss Dai sighed, "The higher-ups have decided to send a specialist to Shanghai to sign the Sino-French Mutual Assistance Agreement with the French, hoping to exchange supplies for French support."
Uh, giving money again?
"Hey," Zheng Jiemin sighed and changed the subject: "The God of Wealth sent back that the Japanese army wants to attack Guangxi. How will the higher-ups arrange it?"
Boss Dai frowned and said, "The Military Commission held an emergency meeting, and most people still believed that it was impossible for the 22nd and 21st Armies stationed in Guangzhou to withdraw most of their troops and abandon Guangzhou to attack Guangxi."
"They believe the authenticity of this intelligence is questionable."
"I just told the Military Control Commission's Guangzhou Station to keep an eye on the Japanese army's movements. This intelligence is still kept secret."
Zheng Jiemin was slightly stunned, but after thinking about it, he understood what his superiors were thinking.
If Guangxi is attacked, Commander Li will definitely not be able to sit still. Now the battle of Changsha is the top priority. If Commander Li withdraws troops to support Guangxi.
Then there will be omissions in the deployment of troops in the Fifth War Zone, and Gangcun's 11th Army is likely to take advantage of the situation to make a big fuss.
The superiors are also counting on Commander Li to guard the southern gate of Changsha for him. If there is any mistake, Xue Boling will be under much greater pressure.
Boss Dai seemed to have seen through Zheng Jiemin's thoughts and sighed, "The most important thing right now is to defend Changsha."
Dong Dong Dong! As soon as Boss Dai finished speaking, Mao Feng’s voice came from the door: “Report.”
"Come in," Boss Dai raised his head and looked at Mao Feng and said, "What's the matter?"
"Commander, Lone Wolf has sent urgent intelligence. Please review it."
As he spoke, Mao Feng handed over the telegram in his hand...
I have something urgent to do, so another chapter may be finished in the afternoon.
