Murakachiro had just been shocked by the huge news of the theft of the warehouse and was doubting his life. Suddenly he heard Matsumoto's words and could not turn around for a moment.
"What does General Matsumoto mean...?"
"After General Sugiyamahara came over, the professional accountants he brought were very powerful. As long as we report all the accounts to the amount of the theft, there will be no problems.
What I'm worried about now is, are there many things stolen from the warehouse? "
Murakachiro said confidently, "Under the protection of our imperial warriors, even if the warehouse is stolen, the loss will not be too great. Even if we add our numbers, there will be no problem."
Matsumoto Fuji nodded and took Murakachiro downstairs.
At 10:30 in the morning, the whole of Fengtian became lively. Fengtian City has been under martial law for the past two days. The whole city is full of Japanese military police and security forces. People are afraid to go out.
Who knew that this morning, field troops from the south and outside the city entered the city and closed all the exits from the city. The streets were full of Japanese troops.
Murakachiro of the Military Police Headquarters, Kuji Obo, director of the Fengtian Branch of the Manchuria Railway Investigation Bureau, Watanabe Junichi, the section chief of the Special High School Section in Fengtian, Togo Jiro, the second secretary of the Fengtian Consulate, and Matsumoto Fuji, the commander of the Kwantung Army Fengtian Garrison Headquarters, all arrived. .
This transfer of weapons and ammunition from Northeast China to Peiping and Central China was contacted and ordered by the base camp. Matsumoto Utsuji received the order from the Kwantung Army Headquarters and then asked Sato to implement it specifically.
Now the mission has just begun, and the warehouse of Fengtian Arsenal has been stolen. How can there be such a coincidence in the world?
Coincidentally, everyone here knew it well. After all, the entire Fengtian Japs leadership was involved in the arms reselling.
Now is the critical moment to support North China and Central China. The warehouse was actually stolen, which just gave them the opportunity to settle their accounts.
All the Japs who came to the scene had expressions on their faces like they were dead, and they didn't know how happy they felt.
"Sato-kun, put Nakaright Kazusuke in prison immediately, and remember that you must not let him die!
This matter is very serious. I have to report it to the headquarters and base camp immediately. In addition, I have contacted the garrison to enter the city. Sato-kun will be responsible for guarding the arsenal! "
"Hi!"
Sato touched the check worth 100,000 yuan in his pocket and thought, why not send him on his way? With such a big blame on him, life would be even more uncomfortable than death.
Nakaright Kazusuke had been locked up by Sato for a long time. Now everyone was standing in front of the arsenal office building. Sato saw that no one had any intention of going to the warehouse, so he couldn't help but mention,
"Would you like to go to the warehouse and take a look first?"
Matsumoto Fuji thought that he had finally filled in the accounts before the arrival of the new commander, and he couldn't help but feel happy. Hearing this, he said casually,
"Sato, the arsenal is heavily guarded. Even if it is stolen, it is only a small batch. It is not a big deal. But you must strictly investigate whether Nakaright Kazusuke is involved?"
"Yes, the theft of the arsenal warehouse must require an internal response. Even if Zhongyou Yijie was not involved, it was his dereliction of duty. He must be responsible for this incident."
Togo Jiro from the consulate echoed.
Kuji Obo, director of the Fengtian Branch of the Manchuria Railway Investigation Bureau, thought of the Japanese yen and U.S. dollars in his safe and said the same:
"We at Manchuria Railway will also investigate this matter. Once we discover the culprit, we must deal with it immediately, especially Zhongyou Yijie. As the captain of the guard team of the arsenal, he has to bear the main responsibility."
Sato had no chance to speak. When everyone was quiet, he said quietly:
"General Matsumoto and other leaders, all weapons and ammunition from all warehouses in the arsenal have been stolen, and not a single bullet is left. Please go and take a look first."
"Huh?" Matsumoto was the first to react, "This is impossible. The weapons and ammunition in the warehouse are all the weapons produced in the past two months.
Even if our Kwantung Army's most elite and most capable Sato Baggage Regiment had to be transported several times before it could all be transported away, how could it all be stolen? "
All the Japs leaders from various departments looked at Sato, hoping that he was just joking.
Sato smiled bitterly and said, "Everyone should go to the warehouse and take a look first!"
Everyone got into their cars and rushed to the warehouse area. In about ten minutes, Matsumoto Fuji and others finally arrived at the warehouse.
The car came directly to the gate of Warehouse No. 1. When Matsumoto got off the car, he saw the open door and the empty interior of the warehouse.
"What...what's going on?" Matsumoto Fuji was frightened and stammered.
Togo Jiro from the consulate took two quick steps to the warehouse door and looked inside. He saw a two-meter-square hole in the roof with snowflakes floating on it.
Togo Jiro's mood was as cold as the snowflakes falling in the warehouse.
"Sato-kun, how are the other warehouses? Are there any problems?" Gendarmerie Commander Murakachiro asked with a fluke on his face.
Seeing everyone looking at him expectantly, Sato felt sad. He was also a member of the arms reselling business. He knew very well how serious this matter was.
If only one warehouse was stolen, all of them would be happy, it would just settle their accounts for many years, and no one could say they had done anything bad.
Now that all the warehouses have been stolen, even if they can still settle the accounts, the war in North and Central China is very tense, and there is an urgent shortage of weapons and ammunition.
If the empire's strategy is delayed, even if they don't go to military court, the rest of their lives will not be easy.
"All warehouses were stolen, and nothing or clues were left behind. Now what we have to consider is how to minimize our own responsibilities!"
Matsumoto Shoji's last hope failed, "Everyone, please quickly arrange for people to investigate. Even if you can't find all the weapons and ammunition, at least some of them must be found.
If the empire's strategy is delayed because of our problems, I don't need to tell you the consequences, you also know it! "
Obo Kuji of the Manchuria Railway Investigation Bureau and Watanabe Junichi, the director of the Super High School Division, simultaneously arranged for their men to search the entire warehouse area.
All the high-ranking Japanese soldiers stood in the snow and did not leave. They urgently wanted to know what was going on here.
"Section Chief, the entire warehouse area has been searched. Except for the big hole in the roof, there is nothing suspicious.
The floor of the warehouse is hardened with cement, and there are no underground passages. We really can’t imagine how the thieves transported such a large amount of weapons and ammunition! "
Just as Watanabe was about to speak, Matsumoto spoke first, "In addition to small things like rifles and bullets, there are also tanks and heavy artillery in the entire warehouse area.
These things can only go out through normal channels, so there must be enemy agents in our arsenal. You must find them.
Starting from the one on the right, the other two people with keys must also be investigated closely! "
