Chapter 1571: Miyazaki-kun knows when to advance and when to retreat
"Why did Sheng Shuyu arrange for you to keep an eye on Qimin Hospital?" Ping Chongyang asked, "What basis do you have for judging that General Gangcun might go to Qimin Hospital?"
Wang Hengyi then told the information he got from Sheng Shuyu.
Cheng Qianfan looked at Ping Chongyangyi, meaning whether what this person said was true?
Ping Chongyang frowned.
He was only temporarily assigned to work with General Gangcun. He had no idea about the general's family situation, let alone such personal matters as the death of the general's youngest son.
……
"Based on this alone, do you think General Gangcun will go to Qimin Hospital?" Ping Chongyang asked.
"We are also uncertain, so we can only deploy more points and wait and see," said Wang Hengyi.
"What was the name of the person who escaped?" Cheng Qianfan suddenly remembered this and asked.
"Liu Yangji." Wang Hengyi said, "He was brought to Shanghai by Sheng Shuyu earlier. He is one of my two men."
"Liu Yangji." Cheng Qianfan nodded. He took the confession paper from Ping Chongyang's hand and read out the names of Wang Hengyi's men. "These are the people, right? Are there any missing?"
"No." Wang Hengyi shook his head.
"There is one more thing." Cheng Qianfan asked, "It's so late, what are you and Liu Yangji doing in the French Concession?"
"Liu Yangji led the way and took me to meet the person from the Shanghai Special Intelligence Department. That person stole the files about Gangcun's young son's treatment at Qimin Hospital and is more familiar with the relevant situation." Wang Hengyi said.
"Where is that person?" Cheng Qianfan asked happily.
"I don't know." Wang Hengyi shook his head. "Only Liu Yangji knows. I just arrived in Shanghai and don't know the situation here."
……
"Don't you know, or don't want to say?" Cheng Qianfan's face was gloomy.
"I really don't know." Wang Hengyi was frightened and said quickly.
"As a team leader, you don't know as much as any of your subordinates." Cheng Qianfan looked at Wang Hengyi with disgust. In a fit of anger, he went up and kicked Wang Hengyi.
Wang Hengyi screamed, huddled in a corner, and dared only to beg for mercy.
Ping Chongyangyi and Cheng Qianfan asked some more questions respectively, and after confirming that Wang Hengyi had nothing more to confess, they prepared to leave.
"Officer, I confess everything. Please give me something to eat and drink." Wang Hengyi begged.
Cheng Qianfan snorted coldly, brought Ping Chongyang out, and locked the cell door.
"Arrange for someone to bring him some food and drinks." Cheng Qianfan handed the key to Hou Pingliang, "Keep an eye on him and don't let anyone talk to him."
"clear."
……
"Inspector Yang, if you are not in a hurry to go back, come and sit in my office." Cheng Qianfan made an invitation.
"Thank you for bothering me." Ping Chongyang nodded and said as soon as he knew that Miyazaki Kentaro had something to say, and he also had many questions to ask.
A policeman served him tea. Cheng Qianfan asked no one to disturb him and closed the door of his office.
"You have worked in Shanghai for many years and have a better understanding of the situation here. Come and take a look at this confession." Ping Chongyang handed the confession paper to Miyazaki Kentaro.
"From the confession given by Wang Hengyi, it can now be confirmed that the target of this Military Control Commission operation planned by Dai Chunfeng was none other than General Gangcun," said Cheng Qianfan.
He pointed at the confession paper and said, "If what I guessed is correct, this man named Zhuo mentioned by Wang Hengyi is the agent of the Shanghai Special Intelligence Department nicknamed 'Little Taoist Priest'."
"Mr. Miyazaki knows this person?" Ping Chongyang asked.
"This 'young Taoist priest' is named Zhuo. He was once arrested by Li Cuiqun's secret service headquarters. Unit 76 used every possible means to punish him, but he was stubborn and refused to confess."
Cheng Qianfan said, "This person nearly died because of excessive torture. The Special Agent Headquarters arranged to send him to Qimin Hospital for treatment, but he was ambushed by members of the Military Control Commission on the way and was rescued."
"In fact, this person is also the first important person captured by our secret service and the Shanghai Special Intelligence Department in recent years, including No. 76." Cheng Qianfan said, "It's a pity that this person was kidnapped by Chongqing."
……
"The Chinese are incapable of anything they do. Even the important criminals they capture can be kidnapped. They are so stupid." Ping Chongyang said with a cold snort.
"Who said it wasn't?" Cheng Qianfan sighed.
"You just mentioned Qimin Hospital, why is it Qimin Hospital again?" Ping Chongyang asked with a frown.
"Qi Min Hospital is very close to No. 76 Jessfield Road where the secret service headquarters is located. Maybe that's the reason." Cheng Qianfan said.
As he spoke, he frowned, "Regarding Wang Hengyi's statement that General Gangcun might go to Qimin Hospital..."
Cheng Qianfan looked at Ping Chongyangyi, "Mr. Ping Chong, what do you think?"
"To be honest, I don't know what Wang Hengyi told me." Ping Chongyang shook his head. "Although General Gangcun trusts me very much, I don't know about the general's family affairs, especially the privacy involving the pain of losing his son."
"It's terrible!" Cheng Qianfan sighed, "Let's not talk about whether the general will go to Qimin Hospital. If what Wang Hengyi said about the general's past is true, it is enough to show how meticulous their operational investigation is."
"Yes, it's terrible." Ping Chongyang nodded. "From another perspective, this is enough to show that the Military Control Commission has made all kinds of preparations for the assassination of the general."
"Although this group of people have not grasped the whereabouts of His Excellency the General, their assassination is more like shooting in many places and waiting for the rabbit to come to them. However, there is an old saying in China, 'Don't be afraid of ten thousand, but be prepared for the worst.' The Military Control Commission members are scheming but not scheming, and we have no control over their actions everywhere, so it is really possible that they will take advantage of us." Ping Chongyang said with a serious expression.
Ping Chongyang stood up and bowed slightly to Miyazaki Kentaro. "Thankfully, with Mr. Miyazaki's warning, we can be prepared in advance and do a good job of protection."
……
"Before, Captain Araki of the Special High Section came to me and mentioned that the Special High Section had obtained intelligence that the Military Control Commission had made unusual moves and was transferring personnel from Zhejiang to Shanghai, intending to carry out large-scale operations in Shanghai." Cheng Qianfan said, "The Special High Section has two judgments about the target of the Military Control Commission's actions. One is that they believe their target is Wang Tianhai, and the other is that they suspect they are plotting against Lord Gangcun."
"It seems that Wang Hengyi's explanation is consistent with the previous intelligence." Cheng Qianfan frowned, "As far as I know, Section Chief Sanben should have met with Commander Ikeuchi and informed him of the matter as a warning."
"I know what you are talking about, but it is only a rough warning after all, and does not contain more information." Ping Chongyang said, "And your information, Mr. Miyazaki, truly confirms that the target of the Military Control Commission is the general, which is very important."
"It is my honor to contribute my little bit to protect His Excellency the General." Cheng Qianfan said, his eyes full of fanaticism.
Ping Chongyang nodded slightly. When Miyazaki Kentaro first met the General, he had noticed that this Miyazaki-kun seemed to be a fanatical admirer of the General. This could also explain why, upon learning that the Military Control Commission was going to assassinate the General, Miyazaki Kentaro even forgot to contact the chief of the Special High Police, but contacted him without hesitation, because this was the fastest way to send a warning to the General.
"It's getting late. I have to go back and report to the general." Ping Chongyang said.
"Okay, I'll take you there." Cheng Qianfan said.
Although he was always concerned about obtaining intelligence about the Japanese army's movements from Ping Chongyangyi, he knew that he could not be hasty. What he had to do now was to gain Ping Chongyangyi's friendship and trust step by step, and then slowly make his plans.
……
Cheng Qianfan rushed all the way and sent Ping Chongyang to the door of the gendarmerie.
"Mr. Miyazaki, do you want to go in with me?" Ping Chongyang asked.
Cheng Qianfan glanced at the military police yard and shook his head. "I have to go to the Special High Section to report the situation, so I won't go in."
"Mr. Pingzhong, please be sure to protect the general." Cheng Qianfan said in an earnest tone and with a serious expression.
"Sure!" Ping Chongyang nodded.
"Please!" Cheng Qianfan bowed to Ping Chongyang, then got into the car, waved his hand, and said goodbye and left.
After seeing Kentaro Miyazaki driving away, Ping Shigeyoichi had a better impression of this man.
Although Kentaro Miyazaki made it clear that he had to rush to the Special High Police to report the situation, this was indeed something Kentaro Miyazaki urgently needed to do.
However, Ping Chongyangyi still believes:
This is a person who knows when to advance and when to retreat.
If you are the kind of person who is scheming and wants to seize every opportunity to climb up, you will not miss such a good opportunity.
Especially for someone like Kentaro Miyazaki who fanatically worships the Shogun, it is rare that he still knows his limits and maintains his identity at such a critical moment.
……
After listening to Ping Shigeyoichi's report, Ikeuchi Junichiro looked at Gangcun.
The death of his youngest son, Gangcun Wuzheng, has always been the greatest pain in the senior's heart.
Now, this painful event that has been buried in the senior's heart for more than ten years was mentioned again by Ping Chongyang, and he was worried that Gangcun would not be able to bear it.
Gangcun took a deep breath, and his serious face changed. The corners of his eyes became moist. He glanced at Junichiro Ikeuchi and said, "I thought I had forgotten it a long time ago, but today I was reminded of the sad things and lost my composure."
"Even a general fighting on the battlefield is still a husband and a father when he returns home. There is an old Chinese saying that goes, 'If you love your son, how can you not be a real hero?' And being ruthless does not necessarily mean you are a true hero." Ikeuchi Junichiro shook his head slightly, sighed, and said, "You are a man of affection and loyalty."
Gangcun smiled faintly. All Chinese people deserve to die. If he had not come to China to do intelligence work, his beloved youngest son would not have died of illness.
"So, Wu Zheng was indeed receiving treatment at Qimin Hospital back then?" Junichiro Ikeuchi asked Gangcun.
"That's true." Gangcun nodded. He would never forget the autumn of the 14th year of Taisho.
"It seems that the Military Control Commission did a very thorough job in preparing for this assassination," said Junichiro Ikeuchi with a serious expression.
He looked at Ping Chongyangyi and asked, "Do you know about other ambush points of General Gangcun targeted by the Military Control Commission?"
"No." Ping Chongyang said, "The Military Control Commissioner arrested by the police only knew about the Qimin Hospital line he was in charge of. He did not know about the intelligence on other lines."
"Sir, Chongqing cannot defeat us on the battlefield, and they actually resorted to such a despicable act of assassinating a highly respected and prestigious general." Ikeuchi Junichiro said solemnly, "Your safety is of utmost importance. I will make careful arrangements for your itinerary protection in the next two days. Please notify the guards to cooperate."
According to the scheduled itinerary, Gangcun will stay in Shanghai for one and a half days and will fly back to the empire the day after tomorrow.
……
"Mr. Ikeuchi, I'm sorry to trouble you." Okamura nodded and said, he did not say anything like "How scared you are" to reject Junichiro Ikeuchi's kindness.
If I didn't die on the battlefield, but died in a despicable assassination, it would be the most tragic and ridiculous thing for me.
As for assassinations, he has always been wary. Having learned the bloody lessons from Lord Ito and Senior Shirakawa, he naturally did not dare to take it lightly.
"Earlier, Sanjiro from the Special High Section came to warn us, mentioning that the Military Control Commission might be taking action in Shanghai. This time, the exact intelligence also came from Miyazaki Kentaro from the Special High Section. It seems that the intelligence from the Special High Section is relatively accurate." Ikeuchi Junichiro said, "The Special High Section is indeed good at dealing with the Military Control Commission."
He looked at Ping Zhongyangyi and said, "Lieutenant Colonel Ping Zhong, I will arrange someone to cooperate with you. The two of you should strengthen your cooperation with the Special High Section and make sure to do your best to ensure the safety of Mr. Gangcun."
"Hai!"
Junichiro Ikeuchi picked up the phone and said, "Ask Onodera Masago from the Intelligence Room to come over here."
Soon, Onodera Masago came over.
Junichiro Ikeuchi briefly introduced the relevant information to his subordinates.
"You two must work together. I have only one request." Ikeuchi Junichiro said sternly, "No gunshots, and Lord Okamura must not be disturbed."
"Hai!"
"Hai!"
……
Extraordinary courses.
Cheng Qianfan was interrogated more strictly than before.
"What happened?" Cheng Qianfan handed the certificate issued to him by Araki Harima to the guard at the door and asked in surprise.
In the past, he could enter directly with this face, but this time his ID was strictly checked and his gun was temporarily confiscated.
"Mr. Cheng, please come in." The guard did not answer the question. He returned the ID to Cheng Qianfan and waved his hand.
"Please keep my service pistol safe." Cheng Qianfan said, pointing at his confiscated service pistol.
After parking the car, Cheng Qianfan went straight into the office building of the Special High Section.
The guard downstairs in the office building was a close confidant of the Araki-Harima Action Team. He naturally knew his identity and let him pass directly.
"Is Araki-kun in the office?"
"The captain just came back and is in the office." the guard replied.
Cheng Qianfan nodded. When he passed by the guard, he secretly stuffed two 'Jiujiu Trading' vouchers into the guard's uniform pocket and whispered, "One for each person."
"Thank you." The guard smiled and whispered.
