Tian Qi saw Li Shiqun again.
When he was in Nanjing, he personally escorted Li Shiqun to the airport. At that time, he didn't take this person seriously.
Now, Tian Qi began to regret it.
If he knew that Li Shiqun was so trusted by the Japanese, he would have killed this man at all costs when he was in Nanjing.
It's just that it's too late to say anything.
"Welcome Mr. Li."
Kenji Doihara's face glowed brightly: "Mr. Shiqun is willing to go out and assist the Empire of Japan this time. It will be of great help to the construction of the Japanese empire."
"Thank you, Mr. Doihara." Li Shiqun said politely: "China is raging in war, the country is withered, and the people are in dire straits. The scholars see it in their eyes and feel pain in their hearts. My personal honor and disgrace have long since ceased to concern me. If I can exchange the lives of my fellow soldiers for peace in the country, I will be very lucky."
"Well said, Mr. Shiqun." Doihara Kenji was very satisfied with his attitude: "I wonder how much Mr. Shiqun knows about Shanghai, and what can he teach me?"
"Although Shiqun people are in Hong Kong, they still know a lot about Shanghai." Li Shiqun looked solemn: "The current situation in Shanghai is not optimistic. Before, there were three military giants in Shanghai, but now Zhou Weilong and Cheng Yiming have left one after another, and the power has fallen to Meng Shaoyuan In the hands of one man, this man cannot be underestimated and he will be our main opponent for a long time to come.”
"Mr. Li." Koichi Hahara said: "Meng Shaoyuan's monopolization of power is a good thing for him personally, but it is also beneficial to us. In the past, the so-called three giants were in Shanghai together and had a common voice. Now only Meng Shaoyuan is left. , no matter how strong his personal ability is, he can't stand alone, and people will always make mistakes."
"What your Excellency Lieutenant Colonel said is absolutely true, but Shiqun has a different view." Li Shiqun said politely: "The so-called Big Three at the time were nothing more than different bedfellows, fighting for power and gain with each other, which greatly consumed their energy. Now, Meng Shaoyuan is no longer like this With his worries at hand, he can completely free up his hands and deal with us with peace of mind.
Is it good to have all the power? It's good and bad, but in troubled times, it is better to implement dictatorship than to use democracy to pool wisdom. Everyone, in ancient China, most of the founding kings were dictators. You also have opinions, and I also have ideas. Whose opinion is it better to listen to? If you make a statement, if you are wrong, you are wrong; if you are right, you will create a great future.
Looking at all the peaceful and prosperous times in Chinese history, capable ministers emerged in large numbers, but it was the king who ultimately made the decision. If the king is wise, the country will be strong. If the king is fatuous, no matter how many Wei Zheng there are, it will be useless. In my opinion, as far as the current Shanghai is concerned, Meng Shaoyuan is a wise king. As long as he has a group of officials to assist him, he will be the King of Shanghai! "
Everyone looked at each other.
Isn’t this a too high evaluation of Meng Shaoyuan?
Gongdao Hongshi snorted coldly: "Who is Meng Shaoyuan? Mr. Li actually called him a wise king. It is too exaggerated."
"No, I think Mr. Shiqun is right." Kenji Doihara said: "Itauchi-kun called Meng Shaohara 'the strongest agent on the surface'. He was praising our enemies, but he also warned us. . Let me ask, Meng Shaoyuan was arrogant and domineering on the beach, but we were helpless. Are we still arrogant now?"
"I also agree with Mr. Li's opinion." Yanagawa Yasumi asked lightly: "But, may I ask what good advice Mr. Li can teach us?"
"I don't dare, I don't dare." Li Shiqun said repeatedly: "The Japanese Empire is sweeping across the battlefield. The soldiers are just civilians. How can we talk about guidance? If you have any ideas, the soldiers do have some."
Doihara Kenji said hurriedly: "Please ask Mr. Shiqun to teach me!"
Li Shiqun pondered for a moment and then said: "There was a great man in ancient China named Yu. Everyone must have heard the story of Dayu's flood control. His father was also a flood control, named Gun. Gun controlled the water with plugs, but the blockage failed. This end and that end flooded again, so the Emperor of Heaven beheaded them. After Yu was responsible for controlling the water, he changed the blockage to dredging, and the flood was controlled.
When I look at Shanghai, I use the same method as Gun, one word, blockage. Wherever there is a problem, block it. Problems arise everywhere, how can there be so many manpower available? So the blockade here is over, and something goes wrong somewhere. Blocking here and there is useless, but it makes the military command more and more powerful. This is blocking, not sparing! "
Doihara Kenji immediately asked: "Then how to thin it out?"
"Those who are sparse must let the water find a place to go." Li Shiqun was confident: "Shanghai is divided into two areas, one is the Japanese-controlled area, and the other is the public concession. Japan's current strategy is to not only ensure the Japanese-controlled area, but also find ways to control it. If you live in a public concession, you are blocked there. Blocked at both ends, neither end has an advantage.
The flood of military rule moved freely in two places, sometimes in the Japanese-controlled areas and sometimes in the public concessions. Wherever the flood came, we were forced to rush to it. The blockage was completed here, but something happened again there. Therefore, according to the opinions of the soldiers, it is better to concentrate the troops, attack one area, and let the floodwater from that area flow to the public concession! "
Doihara Kenji immediately understood: "Mr. Shiqun, do you mean to concentrate heavy troops in the Japanese-controlled areas?"
"Yes, that's my opinion." Li Shiqun nodded slightly: "Pull out the forces hoarded in the public concessions, concentrate them in the Japanese-controlled areas, cooperate with the military police and the Marine Corps, arrest military commanders on a large scale in the Japanese-controlled areas, and quickly Compress their living space so that they have to retreat to the public concession, and if necessary, you can even open a way to deliberately let them escape to the concession!"
Gongdao Hongshi's face showed displeasure: "Mr. Li, you want us to give up the public concession? Do you know how much effort we have put into the concession? How many imperial warriors have died? If we give up now, doesn't it mean telling the military commander that we have surrendered?"
"What's the harm in temporarily admitting defeat?" Li Shiqun didn't care at all: "Please note that the military command is frequently active in Shanghai. What is it for? Anti-corruption and intelligence. If we firmly control all Japanese-controlled areas, In his hands, most of the military commanders were driven out, so what’s the point of them being trapped in the concession?”
Doihara Kenji was very interested: "Mr. Shiqun, please continue talking!"
With Kenji Doihara's encouragement, Li Shiqun's confidence greatly increased: "What's more, we are not really giving up the concession, but a strategic concession. First, we should reorganize the Japanese-controlled areas and completely eradicate the soil for the survival of military rule, and then we will Once there is peace, we can be free to fight for the concession again. We have a rear, but where is the military commander's rear in Shanghai?
They are a lonely boat on the vast ocean, and they will sink at any time. We used the Japanese-controlled area as the rear area, pressed forward step by step, and completely surrounded them. They were like a person being strangled by the throat, struggling constantly, and in the end they could only suffocate to death. In addition, the road into the concession is completely blocked. You can go in, but you must carry out the strictest inspection when you come out! "
This man is the most dangerous enemy he has ever encountered in his life!
Miao Chengfang and Tian Qi had this idea in their minds at the same time.
Li Shiqun grasped the biggest problem of military unification. They had no rear. If they stayed in Shanghai, they could only fight to the death with Japan in Shanghai.
Once trapped in the public concession, the threats they could pose to the Japanese would be severely reduced.
Tian Qi regretted more and more why he didn't kill this person when he was in Nanjing!
Li Shiqun had no idea that he had been targeted by the two people present: "As for the public concession, we don't really give up. We can use other forces to effectively hold back the military commander. For example, the intelligence of Director Miao and Deputy Director Tian The existence of the headquarters is a threat to the military commander. The intelligence headquarters can recruit people in the concession and thus function effectively without affecting our main strength.
There is another type of people who can also serve the Empire of Japan, the Youth Gang forces. I know that the military commander has taken control of Zhang Jinghu, but there is not only one Zhang Jinghu in the concession, but also Ji Yunqing. Although Ji Yunqing's protégés and disciples, as well as their status in the world, are not as good as Zhang Jinghu's, they are still a powerful force and fully support their full-scale operations in Shanghai.
I know Ji Yunqing very well. He is an old man I admire and he is loyal to the Empire of Japan. If the head of the agency can personally give him some encouragement, I believe he will be grateful. Of course, I will also visit him later to encourage his determination to continue serving the Empire of Japan. By working together internally and externally, great things can be expected. "
At this point, he paused briefly and then said: "What should we do with the military reunification agents? In one word, kill! Those who are willing to speak up and serve us will be reused. Those die-hard elements, I don't think we need to waste too much time. If you have to get some valuable information from them, kill one and save one!
Of course, the military commander will also kill our people, what should we do? It depends on who has more endurance. Most of our forces are in the Japanese-controlled areas. If the military commander wants to kill them, it may not be that easy. At the same time, tooth for tooth, blood for blood, he kills one of us and we kill ten of them. He wants to see Shanghai bleed, and we will grant his wish! "
"Mr. Li." Tian Qi, who had never spoken, said, "Do you mean to let the people from the intelligence headquarters bleed in Shanghai?"
"No, no, Deputy Director Tian, I think you have misunderstood me." Li Shiqun said hurriedly: "But there must be sacrifices. In order to show my determination, I am willing to stay in the public concession and fight alongside you!"
"Okay, I think Mr. Shiqun's opinion is very good!" Kenji Doihara stopped their conversation: "I will establish a new organization in Shanghai, and Mr. Shiqun will be responsible for it."
"My ability is not enough, Your Excellency, the director of the agency." Li Shiqun unexpectedly said: "I think it is better to choose someone wise. For example, Mr. Ding Mocun is a good choice. He is the most suitable to direct the work. But it’s okay!”
