What Fang Lang didn't know was that although the Japanese war criminal named Kodama Yushio in real history rarely appeared in the news, he had a huge influence on Japan's politics and economy.
As the boss behind many Japanese underworld organizations from the post-war Japan to the 1970s, he was no longer just a simple underworld member, but an important chess player who used a large amount of money to control Japan's political and economic circles behind the scenes. .
Historically, in 1954, he spent a large sum of gold to support Ichiro Hatoyama as Prime Minister of Japan, and even donated money to establish the later Liberal Democratic Party of Japan. If you don’t know much about this Japanese political party, then several Japanese people from this party Everyone will be very familiar with the Prime Minister, including Junichiro Konu, ****, Yoshihide Suga, etc.
Since its establishment in 1955, this party held the position of Prime Minister of Japan for a total of thirty-eight years until its defeat in 1993. This shows how much influence this political party has in Japan.
Of course, none of this has happened yet, and Fang Lang doesn't understand it. After listening to John's words, Fang Lang really wanted to meet and have a chat with this Class-A war criminal. Since he was an enemy, of course he had to find a way to understand the other party deeply. Otherwise, he would not be able to find him even if he wanted to deal with him. What's the direction?
"Yes! We still have to focus on the overall situation. Since this scumbag has come out now and is serving the CIA, wouldn't it be inappropriate for us to go to him directly?
Do you need to say hello to the CIA people first? "
John Clark didn't seem to want to blame the CIA. After listening to Fang Lang's words, he waved his hand nonchalantly and said:
"What do you say hello to the CIA? He is a Japanese war criminal. We are looking for him to do something to give him a chance to atone for his crimes. If he dares not to carry out the task seriously, I will take the opportunity to kill him.
It just so happens that I've seen him unhappy for a long time. "
Fang Lang didn't know whether John really thought that or because he said these things today, but John's attitude did make Fang Lang feel very comfortable.
"Okay, take some time for me and this Kodama Yushifu to meet and get to know each other. If we can talk, let's see if we can let him do something for me.
I am not as kind as you and can easily give others a chance to atone for their sins. If he cannot satisfy me, he will not even have a chance to atone for his sins. "
After knowing the identity of Yushifu Kodama, Fang Lang had no interest in letting him do things for him. In his eyes, if such a person fell into his hands, he would definitely die.
Therefore, he would never give him a chance to really work for himself.
After John heard Fang Lang's words, he didn't think much and said directly:
"Then I will inform this guy tonight and ask him to arrange dinner, and we will have a meal together outside the base. By the way, let him arrange a few beautiful girls."
Fang Lang could tell from John's words that although John seemed to hate the Kodama Yushifu very much, it was obvious that this guy served John very comfortably. Therefore, it is very natural to let the other party arrange the evening activities.
From this, it can be seen that this Kodama Yushifu must be a very powerful guy, otherwise it would be impossible for John to feel like he can't live without him after being released from prison for a year. This made Fang Lang have a strong feeling for this man who has never been with him before. The Class A war criminals they met became even more vigilant.
"Okay, then give this guy a chance.
By the way, do you know what these Japanese gangs rely on to make money? It can't be just relying on those comfort stations outside your naval base! If this is the case, it means relying on women for food, which is a bit embarrassing. "
"How is it possible? Although these comfort stations are one of their main sources of income, their largest source of income actually comes from the black market.
In recent years, Japan has been very short of all kinds of basic daily necessities, and people have no money. In order to fill their stomachs, they will sell their valuables on the black market, and then buy daily necessities such as food. .
However, these gangsters are always able to obtain the most scarce daily necessities, so these gangsters have made a fortune in recent years. "
Hearing this, Fang Lang unconsciously looked up and down John's body for a while. After seeing that the other person was a little uncomfortable, he slowly said:
"You are the ones who are really making the fortune behind this, right?"
After John heard Fang Lang's words, he didn't have any embarrassed expression on his face. Instead, he smiled calmly.
When he said this kind of thing, he knew that Fang Lang would be able to guess it easily. After all, the whole country was obviously in extreme shortage of daily necessities, so why were these gangsters always able to get the needed goods as soon as possible!
Needless to say, the only people in Japan with such capabilities at this time were Americans. And it is impossible for John, a colonel in charge of naval logistics, to be unaware of this.
"You are the colonel of the logistics department of the naval base, so you must not get involved too deeply. Although this kind of thing does not harm the interests of the United States, you must be careful of being caught."
John and he are good brothers, and he doesn't want anything to happen to the other person. Therefore, as a friend, he feels it is necessary to remind the other person to avoid risks, because his position is too easy to be blamed.
Hearing Fang Lang's words, John also understood what the other party meant. He smiled and patted Fang Lang's arm and said:
"Don't worry! This matter is not a personal behavior. Even if something happens, it will not be my fault."
Seeing the other party's confident face, Fang Lang understood that the other party must also know the importance. From the other party's words, he could also hear that this matter should also be a means for the US government to harvest Japan. These Japanese gangs are just their tools. That’s all.
Fang Lang, who wanted to understand this, felt relieved.
"That's good. If you are short of money, you can tell me. This business will definitely make you rich. You must not do anything stupid!"
The stupid thing Fang Lang mentioned was naturally reselling military supplies, which is somewhat different from using his own rights to purchase his own company's products. After all, as long as he can provide the military with goods that others cannot provide, even if someone Even if he found out that this company had something to do with him, he couldn't do anything with it.
John could naturally feel Fang Lang's kindness. He hugged Fang Lang in the back seat with a smile on his face and said with a smile:
"Thank you, don't worry! I know what I can and cannot do."
Neither of them got out of the car along the way, but kept observing the Japanese life outside through the car window. I have to say that Ginza, Japan was indeed the first place to come into contact with the outside world. It was only the end of 1949, and the place was already very prosperous. Five or six-story buildings lined both sides of the road, and there was a constant flow of cars on the road.
Looking at the prosperous scene in front of him, Fang Lang's mood was very complicated. As a Chinese, the countries that had just invaded his motherland and lost the war were developing better than himself, and people's lives were easier than himself. It made him feel very angry.
If possible, he would like to directly bring this place back to primitive society, but unfortunately he does not have such ability, so he can only look back and sigh, secretly cursing himself for his incompetence.
With extremely complicated emotions, Fang Lang returned to the naval base. After making an appointment with John to go out at night, he returned to his warship docked at the beach.
As soon as he returned to the warship, Fang Lang called his adjutant Qi Qingshan to his room.
"Boss, are you looking for me?"
Qi Qingshan also followed Fang Lang out for a spin this time, but because he was riding in the vehicle arranged by John, he did not ride in the same car as Fang Lang, and the vehicle did not stop along the way. Therefore, Qi Qingshan, Fang Lang and John It is not clear what was discussed in the car.
Now that he heard Fang Lang's call, he hurried to Fang Lang's room to report to him. As soon as he came in, he found that Fang Lang's face was very ugly, which made him unconsciously raise his heart.
"How did you feel after seeing the situation on the streets of Japan today?"
Seeing Qi Qingshan arriving, Fang Lang suppressed the anger in his heart and spoke slowly as calmly as possible. But the angry expression on his face did not deliberately restrain. Qi Qingshan could still feel the dissatisfaction in Fang Lang's heart at this moment. Now after hearing Fang Lang's words, he seemed to understand something.
"The changes have been huge. The scene is completely different from the last time we evacuated from Japan! It doesn't look like a defeated country at all."
Qi Qingshan knew Fang Lang very well and understood how Fang Lang felt at the moment, so he followed Fang Lang's feelings and expressed his own feelings.
When Fang Lang heard this, he smiled bitterly, shrugged self-deprecatingly and said:
"Yes! It doesn't look like a defeated country at all. The economic recovery is better than that of our hometown. Is this justified?"
"Boss, this is not surprising. Europe is in the same situation at this time! As a defeated country, Germany has also received aid from the United States. Its current economic recovery is also very fast. It will definitely develop in two years. Better. Americans want an obedient defeated nation, not a broken defeated nation."
Qi Qingshan looked at Fang Lang's expression and tentatively tried to express his thoughts.
After Fang Lang heard Qi Qingshan's words, he was shocked. It took him a long time to realize, yes! Isn't Germany also a defeated country? I haven't joined the action to aid Germany, so there seems to be no difference between myself and the Americans.
Maybe the reason why I am dissatisfied with the improvement of Japanese living conditions this time is because I was a family member in my previous life! The hatred for the Japanese far exceeds the body itself in this era. This can be felt from Qi Qingshan. After all, Qi Qingshan is a Brazilian Chinese.
Although he also hates the Japanese very much, he does not have this deep-seated hatred towards the Japanese.
To understand this, Fang Lang had to suppress his restless emotions. At this time, anger could not solve any problems. Hadn't he already planned how to use the Peninsula War to gain huge benefits from Japan and take the opportunity to curb Japan's development?
Instead of being incompetent and furious here, it is better to directly follow his original plan, squeeze Japan hard, and put everything that should belong to Japan in history into his own pocket. This is the biggest punishment for Japan.
"Yes! Whether it's Japan, Germany, or Italy, everyone seems to have forgotten the fact that they are defeated countries. Now everyone's enemies are our former comrades-in-arms."
After Fang Lang figured everything out, he couldn't help but sigh. Then he quickly looked up at Qi Qingshan and said:
"Although we are powerless to change this situation. However, there are a few things I still have to do. Otherwise, my thoughts will not be accessible and the anger in my heart will have nowhere to vent.
So, while we are in Japan these few days, there are a few things we still need to do. "
Qi Qingshan heard from Fang Lang's tone that the other party's mentality had changed, and he was quietly relieved. Now he heard that he had to do a few things to understand his thoughts and vent his anger.
To him, this is simply not a thing, not to mention a few things. In his opinion, even if it is dozens of things, as long as it can make Fang Lang feel comfortable after being done, he and the soldiers in the fleet will be happy. He must do his best to complete it for Fang Lang.
As for the specific thing to be done, he didn't care at all. He was a soldier. Killing and arson were his professional skills. If he could make his boss understand his thoughts through killing, then he wouldn't mind working in Japan. Start killing.
"If you have anything to do, boss, please just tell me, I will go and help you right away."
Fang Lang smiled when he heard Qi Qingshan's firm reply.
"I will go out to dinner with John tonight. The person in charge of the treat is a Japanese Class-A war criminal named Yushio Kodama. While there is still time, you can send a telegram to our people in Universal Group and Fangyuan Group in Japan. Find a way to find out this guy's information for me.
When investigating, you only need to investigate some basic information, such as how he was released from prison early? What did you do after you came out? What are the Japanese gangs controlled by him in Japan now?
Remember not to go too deep. This guy was once the director of a subordinate intelligence agency of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Japan. He must have counter-reconnaissance capabilities. If you go too deep, you may be discovered by him. He is just investigating some superficial things. It should not be What will be the problem. "
Hearing that Fang Lang was going to investigate a Japanese war criminal, Qi Qingshan saluted directly and accepted the order without any hesitation.
Fang Lang nodded upon seeing this and raised his hand to indicate that he hadn't finished speaking yet.
"At the same time, send a telegram to the Investigation Department of the Brazilian Oriental Group and send elite soldiers to sneak into Japan quietly to conduct an in-depth and comprehensive investigation of this guy. Every word he said, everyone he met, and everything he wanted to do Everything must be recorded in detail.
It is said that this guy has all the wealth that the Japanese navy collected in his hometown. He used this wealth to impress the Americans and let him be released from prison early.
I believe that a person like him cannot easily hand over his wealth, so he must have hidden a large amount of wealth. This is all the blood and sweat of his family. I will never allow this wealth to continue to be in the hands of this executioner. superior.
We must find a way to dig it out and use it on all Chinese people. "
Qi Qingshan did not expect such a thing to happen. This guy was able to collect so much wealth from his hometown. You can imagine how much blood debt he left in his hometown. At this time, Qi Qingshan's eyes flashed with a cold light unconsciously.
The tone was a bit cold and authentic:
"Boss, why don't we just kill such a bastard?"
Hearing this, Fang Lang glanced at Qi Qingshan's expression, nodded with satisfaction and said:
"It is certain to kill him. Not only must we kill him, but all war criminals who have not been punished as they should be, we must personally take action and let them receive the punishment they deserve."
