"This is a poisoning incident of extremely bad nature, especially after Cui Xiong was killed just now!"
Iwai Asahi's face was ashen: "The 'Pegasus' Express was just bombed, and now fourteen more people have been poisoned. Where is the murderer? Where is the murderer?"
"The murderer's name is Li Zhongjie."
The city and village officials cheered up: "Currently, we are in the process of urgent arrest."
"This matter must have been planned by the military commander."
Koichi Hahara, who also learned of this serious incident and arrived, said: "To be able to carry out such a terrible poisoning, I once again reiterate what I said, Meng Shaoyuan is very likely to be in Suzhou. As long as he is still here for one day, the threat will be It won’t be eliminated in one day!”
"Report!"
Kyoko Fukada, head of the Intelligence Section of the Japanese Suzhou Secret Service, walked in: "According to reliable intelligence, the Military Command Loyalty and Salvation Army, guerrillas, and Taihu Guerrilla Advance Team are moving toward the surrounding areas of Suzhou!"
"Is the information reliable?"
"Yes, my detective has already exchanged fire with the other party's spies!"
"idiot!"
Iwai Chaoqing stood up and came to the map: "Our main force is in the process of clearing the countryside. Suzhou's defense is currently empty. The enemy must have gotten the news. If the enemy launches an attack, Suzhou will face strong pressure!"
"Not only that, the National Army's independent guerrilla division in Jintan may also provide support to Suzhou."
"Which independent division?"
"It was the rebel team commanded by Gong Lucai who planned the Danyang riot!" Kyoko Fukada immediately replied: "After they hurriedly escaped from Danyang, they moved to the front line of Jintan, and then entered Jurong for repairs and received supplies of personnel and materials. At present, a certain amount of combat effectiveness has been formed!”
Iwai Asahi looked serious.
If the intelligence is accurate, then Suzhou will face a cruel test after he takes office!
Never make the same mistakes as your predecessor!
"Closely monitor Suzhou!" Iwai Asahi's voice couldn't help but raise his voice: "Continue to investigate the further actions of the Chinese people. From now on, all holidays will be cancelled. I must know any information as soon as possible. For those who enter Suzhou, The most stringent interrogation must be carried out!”
wrong.
Hahara Koichi thought in his heart.
At this time, we should not just interrogate people entering the city.
If the enemy had decided to riot, then preparations would have been completed long ago in Suzhou City.
On the contrary, only those who go out can continuously send Suzhou's intelligence out.
However, he didn't say it.
He knew that even if he said it, Iwai Chaoqing might not listen to him.
Fortunately, more than 30 people urgently transferred from Shanghai have arrived.
Although the manpower is still a little short, at least it can handle emergencies.
"Your Excellency, Commander." The city and village administrator said, "The serious problem we are facing now is the lack of troops. I suggest that some Qingxiang troops be immediately dispatched back to Suzhou to strengthen Suzhou's defense."
"It's not necessary for the time being." Iwai Asahi thought for a while: "Qingxiang is the top priority at present, and the troops cannot be mobilized. Moreover, although the Chinese have a tendency to attack Suzhou, the situation is still unclear. Even if they really start to attack, I firmly believe that it is not that easy for them to enter Suzhou."
"Your Excellency, Commander." Koichi Hahara knew that he had to say something: "During the last Suzhou riot, the Chinese actually acted internally, and externally, they only cooperated with the actions, so they almost did not experience any major incidents. fighting.
This time, the situation is serious. I suggest a comprehensive search of Suzhou, early evening martial law time, and strict inspection of sensitive areas. Suspicious persons will always be arrested first. "
"Hahara-kun, your idea is good." Iwai Asahi said coldly: "But have you ever thought about what is our biggest shortcoming? Insufficient troops! I also want to do what you suggested, but we are not that More personnel can be deployed!”
"The key point is still on Meng Shaoyuan." Koichi Hahara finally said what he was thinking: "I am even more convinced now that Meng Shaoyuan is in Suzhou, and all of this would never have been possible without his permission and planning. .
Moreover, I firmly believe that the Suzhou poisoning case is related to him. The complete paralysis of the command post will cause serious turmoil in the Qingxiang movement in Suzhou, which gives him an opportunity to take advantage of! "
At this point, Iwai Chaoqing also began to believe that Meng Shaoyuan was indeed in Suzhou.
He pondered there for a while: "Hahara-kun, I leave this matter to you. I know you have transferred a group of people from Shanghai, more than thirty people, right?"
"Yes."
"You immediately take your people and conduct a secret search in Suzhou. Once you discover Meng Shaoyuan's traces, report to me immediately and I will do my best to assist you."
"Thank you for your support, Your Excellency, Commander." Koichi Hahara was in high spirits: "I also want to ask Your Excellency, Commander, one thing."
"Say it."
"I confirm that Meng Shaoyuan is not the only one in Suzhou City, but also has a large number of accomplices. And these accomplices can be anyone. Therefore, I hope that the commander will approve me to investigate all of them."
"This kind of investigation is only limited to the Chinese people!"
"Hai!"
Iwai Chaoqing's answer already made Hahara Koichi very satisfied, because he began to suspect someone!
…
"good!"
Meng Shaoyuan smiled: "Brothers Cui Xiong and Cui Peixiang are dead, fourteen people in the command post were poisoned, and the Japanese in Suzhou have begun to get nervous. Tell Li Zhifeng to move in half an hour."
"Have you achieved your goal?" Wu Jingyi smiled: "I still don't quite understand why you care so much about whether the Japanese notice that you are in Suzhou?"
"I told you that if you want to fish, you need a bait!" Meng Shaoyuan said with a smile: "And you also need a bait that fish can't wait to bite as soon as they see it. To be honest, I didn't know where to find it before. But that day at the banquet, when I knew that Koichi Hahara appeared, my first thought was that I found the bait!"
Then he pointed at himself: "This bait is me!"
"you?"
"Yes, what bait is sweeter than mine? The Japanese in Suzhou may not particularly believe it, but as long as Hahara Guangyi knows that I am here, he will catch me at all costs. He will use all his power to persuade Iwai Asahi!" Meng Shaoyuan was quite proud when he said these words:
"Wherever I am, it will definitely cause chaos. Any little thing I do will definitely make the other party panic and panic! Suzhou? Suzhou is a good place."
Immediately, he seemed to have thought of something, and after a while, he said with some reluctance:
"I just can't figure out what my father's purpose is in doing those things? What kind of big action is he carrying out there?"
