My Spy Years

  Chapter 765 The proud Imamura

  Hintaro Imamura just smiled and looked at his "apprentice".

"It is true that there are some business contacts. In France, Pete and I are partners." Cheng Qianfan nodded calmly without hesitation, "The British and the Americans also have some business contacts, especially an American businessman. I once did him a small favor, and later we cooperated in business."

   As he spoke, he walked ahead, signaling Imamura Heutaro to pay attention to the steps of the stairs, "I told you about these things, Sensei."

   "Well, I have a little impression." Heitaro Imamura nodded, "Very good, you did a good job."

  Heitaro Imamura is quite satisfied with Miyazaki Kentaro's "wide circle of friends" and "prosperous business", especially the latter.

  …

   "I've given you a task." Imamura Heutaro said.

   "Teacher, please tell me." Cheng Qianfan said.

  The two went down the stairs and sat down in the living room on the first floor. Imamura Kogoro ordered the servant to deliver snacks, and he personally brought up the red wine that had been sobered up for a long time.

   "This is the fine wine that Kentaro sent last time." Heitaro Imamura said after taking a sip of the red wine.

   "Students don't have any great skills, and they usually can't share the teacher's worries, and they almost hurt the teacher's reputation. All they can do is honor the teacher and drink a few drinks." Cheng Qianfan said modestly.

   "Okay, it's over when it's over." Imamura Heutaro glared at his student, "You are my student, so I will trust you and protect you. If someone bullies you in the future, I will never stand by and watch."

  This kid, after all, is still a little dissatisfied with being suspected and investigated by the military this time, and some emotions were unintentionally revealed in his words just now.

   "Teacher, what was the task you mentioned just now?" Cheng Qianfan asked.

   "The evil Soviet Russia occupied Zhanggufeng in Manchuria, which poses a great threat to the empire's border situation in Manchuria." Heitaro Imamura said.

   Zhang Gufeng?

  Cheng Qianfan showed a serious expression.

  After the September 18th Incident, Japan invaded and occupied Northeast China, and then supported the puppet emperor Puyi to establish the puppet Manchukuo.

   This also led to extremely tense relations between Japan and Soviet Russia, especially in the border areas, where friction between the two sides continued.

  In this context, in the summer and autumn of last year, a military conflict broke out between Japan and Soviet Russia in the Northeast, which was the "Zhanggufeng Incident".

  This incident was actually an attempt by the Japanese Kwantung Army to test the military strength and bottom line of Soviet Russia and the possibility of advancing northward.

   However, the Zhang Gufeng incident ended in Japan's defeat.

  Soviet Russia took the opportunity to occupy Zhanggufeng and directly designated it as a boundary mountain. The puppet "Manchukuo" controlled by Japan lost the mouth of the Tumen River.

   "Teacher, you mean to ask me to inquire about the reaction of the French, British, and American and other European and American powers to the dispute between the Empire and Soviet Russia?" Cheng Qianfan asked after thinking for a moment.

   "The evil polar bear is a greedy beast, and at the same time the common enemy of the Empire, Britain, France and the United States." Heitaro Imamura solemnly said, "The Empire's struggle against Soviet Russia in Manchuria should be supported by the 'free world'."

   "Student understands." Cheng Qianfan nodded thoughtfully, "I will chat with Pete, or Xi Neng, or even Mr. Tande, as well as British and American friends about the international situation."

  Hintaro Imamura nodded slightly.

  …

  Looking at the back of Miyazaki Kentaro leaving, Imamura Heitaro has a dignified expression.

  The military headquarters, especially the Kwantung Army, did not calm down because of the failure of the Zhang Gufeng incident, and still tried to make a breakthrough in the north.

  The Ministry of Foreign Affairs is worried about this, and believes that Soviet Russia is a giant beast that should not be easily provoked.

  However, the Kwantung Army was full of fighting spirit, vowing to wash away the shame of Zhang Gufeng's failure, biting a bite of flesh from the polar bear's body, and opening the passage for the empire to advance north.

  The Ministry of Foreign Affairs was unable to prevent the Kwantung Army's strategy, so it thought that it could do something in it, and it would be able to get a share of it in the future.

   Miyazaki Kentaro's status is low, but he has a good relationship with high-level officials in the French Concession, and has some contacts with Britain and the United States.

   Even, this student of his own has some business dealings with Soviet Russia. Kentaro did not hide this, and he also hinted at "reporting" to him.

   Miyazaki Kentaro is a messenger.

  Under the circumstances that it is temporarily inconvenient for the senior officials of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to communicate directly with the European and American powers, a "little man" like Miyazaki Kentaro can play the role of threading the needle.

In addition, Miyazaki Kentaro’s superficial identity is Cheng Qianfan, a senior Chinese police officer in the patrol room. A Chinese who is friendly to the Great Japanese Empire acts as a Japanese messenger. This is a very wonderful arrangement. More room for maneuver, to avoid excessive stimulation of Soviet Russia.

   As for himself, he could think of using Miyazaki Kentaro's special identity to operate this matter, and Imamura Heitaro is somewhat complacent about his own plan.

  …

   "Brother Fan, what's the matter?" Li Hao glanced at the rearview mirror and asked.

  Brother Fan has been thinking silently since he got in the car, and Li Hao couldn't help feeling a little worried.

   "It's okay, let's think about things." Cheng Qianfan said, "The hospital is ready."

   "It's ready, Brother Fan, you have already called in advance. Dr. Lin from St. Mary's Hospital personally arranged to reserve the first-class delivery room." Li Hao said.

  Bai Ruolan's due date is at the beginning of next month, close to the Spring Festival. Although there is still one month before the due date, Cheng Qianfan has already contacted the hospital to prepare the delivery room, and the best obstetrician and gynecologist is waiting.

  St. Mary’s Hospital is called Guangci Hospital in Chinese. It is located on Father Jin Road. The hospital has three types of wards, namely first-class, second-class and ordinary wards.

  The first-class and second-class wards are more expensive, mainly French, wealthy Chinese, and church people can afford them.

  The cost of general wards is low, and well-off families can afford it.

  The first-class ward of Guangci Hospital has always been tense, and because it is a French mission hospital, it has always been arrogant. If you want to book a first-class ward, it is not just about money.

  However, given Mr. Cheng's power and prestige in the French Concession, Mrs. Cheng was expecting to give birth. Mr. Cheng said that he would book the first-class delivery room, and the hospital had to reserve it one month in advance.

   "Brother Fan, which one should Mom use?" Haozi asked.

Regarding Nai Ma, Jin Kemu's wife helped find one, and his teacher He Xuelin also helped find one. Even Mr. Zhang Renfeng from the Green Gang specially invited an experienced Nai Ma from his hometown in Shaoxing. All the sons and daughters are chubby after eating.

   "Use all three, it depends on which one the child likes." Cheng Qianfan said with a smile.

  The three families all have good intentions, especially the teacher and his wife regard him as a parent and child.

  His eyes were gentle, thinking of the child who was about to be born, Cheng Qianfan couldn't restrain his anticipation and joy from the bottom of his heart.

  …

  La Fei Fang, Mr. Cheng's new home.

   This is a small western-style two-story house.

   There is a lawn in front of the door and a small garden in the backyard.

   "Does it feel better?" Cheng Qianfan helped Bai Ruolan to sit down.

  Before going out today, Ruolan didn't feel well, so she didn't accompany Cheng Qianfan to the banquet.

   "It's much better, but it was a bit hard for a while, and I recovered after drinking the salty soup cooked by Lu's mother." Bai Ruolan said.

  Mother Lu is the new maid hired by the Cheng family. She is a well-known maid in Shanghai and is good at serving women who are in labor and giving birth.

  In addition to Lu's mother, Mr. Cheng's family has two more servant girls. Although they are servant girls, Bai Ruolan treats them like younger sisters. Both girls are 'bought' by Bai Ruolan from the orphanage.

   "Master, the white fungus and lotus seed soup has just been cooked." The little maid, Li Zi, brought over a bowl of sweet soup, "My wife has already ordered it to be cooked on the stove."

   "Thank you Madam." Cheng Qianfan said with a smile.

  With the little maid present, Bai Ruolan looked shy and gave her husband a blank look.

   "Where's Xiaobao?" Cheng Qianfan asked.

   "Falling asleep." Bai Ruolan knew what her husband meant, so she said with a smile, "Xiaobao has had sweet soup."

   "I still have some things to deal with later, I'm going to the police station, you go to bed early." Cheng Qianfan smiled. He stirred the sweet soup with a spoon, blew on it, and brought it to Bai Ruolan's mouth.

  Bai Ruolan shook her head after taking a small mouthful. Seeing her husband eating to his heart's content, she was filled with joy.

   It's just that Cheng Qianfan still sees the worried look under this happy face.

   "Just to deal with some official business." Cheng Qianfan understood what his wife was worried about, so he said.

  Bai Ruolan felt a little relieved.

  Accompanied Ruolan for a walk in the living room again, told the two little maids and Mother Lu to take good care of his wife, Cheng Qianfan changed into a coat, and left home in a hurry.

  …

  Luo Yannian's eyes were full of mixed expressions of pain, disappointment and anger.

  He looked at Jiang Qi who was kneeling in front of him, and finally let out a long sigh with all his emotions.

  Jiang Qi recruited.

  When he broke through with the No. 2 Squadron, he was unfortunately captured by the Japanese army. Facing the interrogation of the Japanese army and the bayonet wielded by the Japanese soldiers, he did not give in at first.

  However, when a Japanese army sergeant put a box of canned beef in front of the hungry Jiang Qi, he betrayed his belief and the people.

The Japanese army learned that Jiang Qi belonged to the Red Party and was once the traffic officer of Luo Yannian, an important "leader" of the Shanghai Red Party. The Red Party was wiped out.

  Objectively speaking, this plan is almost seamless.

  Jiang Qi was not tortured and tortured, and no traces of torture were left. If he returned to Shanghai, almost no one would have thought that he had been captured and rebelled.

  What Jiang Qi never expected was that Ah Hai became suspicious of him just because of a piece of cornbread, and gradually saw through his shameful face.

  Jiang Qi cried with snot and tears, begging Luo Yannian to let him go.

   Just when Luo Yannian was silent, Jiang Qi suddenly jumped up, trying to hold Luo Yannian hostage, but Luo Yannian grabbed his arm directly and fell over his shoulder.

  Gao Lan brought a comrade and immediately came up to hold Jiang Qi down.

   "I taught you all your boxing skills." Luo Yannian glanced at Jiang Qi, shook his head with a painful expression, and waved his hands as he spoke.

  Looking at Jiang Qi who was taken away by Gao Lan, Luo Yannian sat on the stool, as if he had aged a lot.

  Jiang Qi is not only his traffic officer, but also his comrade-in-arms. It can be said that he guided this young man who was saved by his bowl of rice soup to step on the road of revolution step by step.

  Luo Yannian's wife and children were sacrificed at the gunpoint of the Kuomintang reactionaries during the White Terror period. It can even be said that Jiang Qi is his child in his heart.

  Jiang Qi's betrayal, and the imminent punishment he deserved, to Luo Yannian, is a double meaning of betrayal and loss.

   "Comrade Ah Hai, I want to thank you." Luo Yannian got up and bowed deeply to Ah Hai, "You can discover Jiang Qi, a traitor in time, and avoid heavy losses to the organization. I thank you."

  He is really afraid, not because he is afraid of being arrested and sacrificed because of Jiang Qi's rebellion, but because of the great loss that such a cancer lurking inside the Red Party may bring to the organization.

  If that happens, he won’t die in peace, and he will have no face to see Marx.

  …

   "Old Huang, it has to be you." Cheng Qianfan took a piece of dog meat and said happily. (PS1)

  It’s a cold day, eating warm stewed dog meat and drinking a little wine, the gods will not change these days.

   Lao Huang’s dog meat is a must.

  Of course, Lao Huang is also a master at stealing dogs. The house opposite the police house kept three dogs in a row, and each time they lost their dogs just after fattening them up.

Everyone knows where the lost dog went, but He Laohuang is stubborn and refuses to admit it. He even brought out the German black-backed wolfhound that he helped Mr. Cheng to raise, and "shamelessly" loved the dog. People think that they are angry with each other, but they can't do anything about this old guy who has a close friendship with Mr. Cheng.

"The organization will arrange for a group of young students and anti-Japanese activists to leave Shanghai in the near future to support the first detachment of the New Fourth Army." Cheng Qianfan said in a low voice, "Our task is to ensure that comrades can safely pass through the enemy's blockade and leave Shanghai smoothly. "

  In May last year, the Northwest Central Committee issued important instructions to the Jiangsu Provincial Party Committee and the Shanghai Municipal Party Committee.

  Require local party organizations to send some capable cadres to places where the New Fourth Army is fighting, and mobilize students, workers, activists, revolutionaries, and party members from various departments in Shanghai to join the New Fourth Army and strengthen our army.

  Later, the Southeast Bureau instructed the underground party in Shanghai to "do a good job in propaganda work for the New Fourth Army, send cadres to the New Fourth Army as much as possible, provide financial help, and cover comrades in the logistics department of the New Fourth Army to purchase in Shanghai to help the New Fourth Army grow stronger."

From Comrade 'Dandelion', Cheng Qianfan learned that this military movement is the largest transport of anti-Japanese forces by the Shanghai Party organization to the New Fourth Army so far. Huo Miao died on the way to Zhenjiang'.

   "It's not easy." Lao Huang shook his head with a serious expression.

   "Yes, there are difficulties." Cheng Qianfan nodded, "However, we Red Party members have always been fearless of any difficulties and obstacles, and we have to overcome all difficulties to complete this mission."

  The Japanese and puppet army’s sweep of the anti-Japanese armed forces around Shanghai also opened the prelude to the brutal blockade of the Japanese invaders against the Japanese armed guerrilla areas and the bases of the New Fourth Army.

  Shanghai's industry and commerce are particularly developed, and there are many talents in culture, education, health and other fields. The enemy obviously pays great attention to guarding against Shanghai's support for the New Fourth Army.

Even Mr. Cheng’s Jiujiu Trading Co., Ltd. has been inconvenient to enter and exit Shanghai recently. Due to the heavy "friendship" between Jiujiu Trading Co., Ltd. and the Japanese military checkpoints, they have been interrogated when entering and leaving Shanghai. It is conceivable that they want to transport a large number of them now. How difficult it was for the anti-Japanese personnel to leave Shanghai.

  Cheng Qianfan also received a call from Comrade Farmer of the Northwest Headquarters, hoping that the special party group in the French Concession would be able to cooperate with the Shanghai party organization to complete this arduous task of troop transport on the premise of ensuring its own safety first and with a flexible approach.

Now he only hopes that the secrecy of this troop transport is done well enough, and that the enemy has not detected it in advance, so that it will be smoother, and once the enemy knows about it, then, if he wants to transport such a troop from the enemy's numerous checkpoints and strict prevention of interrogation With many people going out, the difficulty is comparable to climbing to the sky.

  …

  Hongkou District, special high school.

   "Chairman, urgent call." Araki Harima woke up Jiro Sanben who had just fallen asleep.

   Sanben Jiro frowned, his face was unhappy, and he muttered a few words in his mouth.

  He has a serious get-up qi.

  However, after receiving the telegram from Araki Harima, Jiro Sanben immediately had a serious expression.

   "Map!" Sanben Jiro said in a deep voice.

  Araki Harima immediately turned on the incandescent lamp, then went straight to the wall, pulled back the scarlet curtain, and handed the baton to Sanben Jiro.
