In March 1940, the establishment of Wang Jingwei's puppet regime was close at hand.
Since March, high-level officials of Wang Jingwei's puppet regime have been active in activities, constantly releasing Wang Jingwei's so-called "peaceful national salvation" concept to the outside world.
At the same time, Japan has also invested great attention, manpower and material resources in this upcoming puppet organization.
The Japanese side even publicly announced that it would provide all-out assistance and support to Wang Jingwei.
In Shanghai, Yingzuo Zhenzhao was ordered to ensure the smooth establishment of the Wang puppet regime at all costs.
But for him, the future doesn't seem so optimistic.
Especially when the news came that the first regiment of the Puppet Peace Army had collapsed.
This was tantamount to a severe blow to the Japanese and Wang Puppet regime.
This has also shaken the minds of puppet troops across the country to varying degrees.
There is nothing the military commanders cannot do, only things they do not want to do.
Even such a statement has been spread among the puppet army.
Once a regiment is gone, it can still be rebuilt.
But if confidence and morale are shaken, that's trouble.
"Plan a big victory to boost everyone's morale!"
It sounds simple, but it’s not that easy to do.
However, under such unfavorable circumstances, Hahara Koichi completed a "miracle".
The Japanese Gendarmerie arrested a group of suspects. Some of them were examined and confirmed to have no problems. The Gendarmerie made them write a letter of guarantee and released them.
However, it was a coincidence that Koichi Hahara happened to come to the military police station to do business and happened to see this group of people who had been released.
He only glanced at it, then stopped one of them and asked a few simple questions, which was nothing more than where he came from and where he went.
The man answered truthfully that he was from Hong Kong and was visiting relatives in Shanghai.
However, Hahara Koichi issued an order to arrest him.
After being severely tortured, this person was all recruited.
The gendarmerie caught a big fish:
This person turned out to be Fei Yingsun, the liaison officer sent by the Chongqing headquarters of the Military Command Bureau to the Tianjin Anti-Japanese Anti-Japanese Anti-Corruption Corps!
There is an iron-blooded anti-corruption group in Shanghai, and there is also an anti-Japanese anti-corruption group in Tianjin!
The general leader of the Tianjin Anti-Japanese Anti-Japanese Anti-Japanese Corps was Zeng Che. After the fall of Tianjin, he led the Anti-Japanese Anti-Japanese Anti-Japanese Anti-Japanese Corps to rape and kill the enemy, causing panic among the Japanese lackeys and traitors in Tianjin.
Unfortunately, Pei Jisan, the leader of the Tianjin Station Operations Team of the Military Unification Bureau, was arrested by the Japanese special forces and turned traitor to the enemy. He betrayed Zeng Che and informed the Japanese Military Police of all anti-regiment activities and contact locations.
Li Rupeng, an important figure in the resistance group, was captured.
Zeng Che was already hiding when Li Rupeng was arrested, but he was captured by the police led by the traitor Pei Jisan and escorted to the Japanese Military Police.
Ding Yuchen, another leader of the anti-resistance group, went to Beijing to escape during the Japanese and puppet raids. After staying for a few days, he felt that nothing was wrong and returned to Tianjin, so he was also arrested.
The Japanese military police brutally tortured Li Rupeng, Zeng Che, and Ding Yuchen. The three men were unyielding and died calmly.
At that time Zeng Che was twenty-seven years old, Li Rupeng was twenty-five years old, and Ding Yuchen was twenty-one years old.
Subsequently, the military command sent Li Guocai, an important official from Chongqing, to Tianjin to reorganize the resistance group.
Li Guocai got in touch with Ni Zhongli, director of the Tianjin Station of the Military Command Bureau.
The Tianjin Anti-Resistance Mission was re-established.
The division of labor after this reorganization of the organization is: Li Guocai, the general person in charge; Wang Zongqian, the organizational officer and student union worker; Zhao Erren, the action officer, and Hua Daoben, the transportation officer.
The order Fei Yingsun received was to inspect the reorganization of the Tianjin Anti-Resistance Group and provide guidance on its work.
Fei Yingsun was a native of Shanghai and went to Chongqing in 1937. Originally, according to regulations, after arriving in Shanghai, he should get in touch with the Shanghai District of the Military Command Bureau, and the Shanghai District would send people to escort him to Tianjin.
But like Qu Hualiang, the leader of the Southeast Supervision Group, he blatantly violated organizational discipline.
He had an old lover who was currently in the Japanese-controlled area. Fei Yingsun took the risk and secretly entered the Japanese-controlled area to meet his old lover. As a result, he was arrested by the gendarmerie when he came out.
He could have escaped originally, but who would have thought that he would encounter Koichi Hahara due to bad luck.
If the Japanese had found a treasure, they immediately launched a surprise trial. Fei Yingsun told everything he knew about the Tianjin Anti-Resistance Group.
The Japanese side immediately informed Tianjin of this information.
This resulted in the arrest of Li Guocai, the new chief of the Tianjin Anti-Resistance Mission, and the arrest of leaders such as Li Zhenying, Liu Jie, and Wang Wencheng.
Li Guocai was forced by the Japanese invaders to escort him to identify the members of the resistance group. He took the opportunity to jump out of the car and escape. He was captured on the spot and shot on the spot. He was only 19 years old at the time.
Li Zhenying and Liu Jie were sentenced to life imprisonment, and Wang Wencheng was sentenced to 15 years in prison. They were both detained in the Beijing Artillery Bureau Prison.
Japan achieved a "brilliant victory."
Well, this victory was directed by Hikaru Hahara.
For this he received a special commendation.
When Kage Sasaki asked why he could discover Fei Yingsun, Hahara Koichi replied:
"When I walked into the gendarmerie, other people lowered their heads when they saw me in military uniform. But Fei Yingsun looked at me twice, then lowered his head, and unconsciously leaned into the crowd. This caused a lot of confusion. alerted me.
When I asked him what he said, his tone was tense and his eyes were evasive, especially when asked what he was doing in Shanghai. He said he was here for business, but when he answered what he was doing, he paused obviously. . "
"Very good, Hahara-kun." Kage Sasaki was very satisfied with his answer: "This is meticulous observation."
"I'm far from enough." Koichi Hahara said frankly: "Recently, I have been asking Kawamoto-kun for psychological knowledge, and asked someone to help me buy some books in this field in the United States, but unfortunately, this It’s not as easy to buy as it is popular, and in terms of psychology, I’m far different from that Meng Shaoyuan.”
"You are very humble, Hahara-kun." Kage Zuo Zhenzhao nodded: "We cannot reach Meng Shaoyuan's level for the time being, but you are always learning and improving, and this is what our intelligence personnel lack.
Many of them believe that most of Shanghai has been occupied by us, and it will only be a matter of time before we conquer China. They have lost the desire to continue learning and stand still, always using past experience to deal with new challenges. situation. "
He thought for a moment: "Hahara-kun, there is something I have thought about for a long time, and now I can take action. I decided to follow the example of the Military Command Bureau and set up a training class in Shanghai to teach all the knowledge of intelligence work in Shanghai. All Japanese agents , Chinese agents must enter this class in batches to study for a period of time, I think you will be in charge."
"This is my honor, Your Excellency, the Agency Chief." Koichi Hahara accepted the appointment without hesitation: "I will do my best to pass on the knowledge I know to those students. I believe we will make rapid progress. "
The Japanese are seeking change, and it's time for them to have to change.
Especially when facing that invincible man!
