No. 12, Xiyangshi Street, Taiyuan Epidemic Prevention and Water Supply Corps.
A jeep parked slowly at the door, and the guard guarding the door quickly ran over and opened the door.
After the car door was opened, a Japanese officer with the rank of major general stepped out of the car.
When the guard saw the major general getting out of the car, he immediately bowed and saluted: "General Kawashima!"
Kawashima nodded slightly, looked at the car next to him and asked, "When did General Shinozuka come?"
The guard lowered his head and replied: "General Shinozuka has been here for an hour and a half."
The closed door was slowly opened, and Kawashima stepped in.
In the conference room, Shinozuka was standing in front of a calligraphy and painting with a magnifying glass, looking at it carefully, smacking his lips as he looked at it, expressing his sigh.
There were footsteps behind him, and Shinozuka turned around and saw it was Kawashima, so he walked over.
"Hello, General Shinozuka!"
"General Kawashima, hello!"
After the two Japanese officers bowed to each other, they each took their seats. The two major generals each occupied one end of the long conference table.
There are four other people with seats, all with the rank of Dai Zuo, including Kurosawa, who suffered a loss at the hands of the new group some time ago.
Since there were not many people attending the meeting, the meeting room seemed very empty.
"General Shinozuka, I'm late, sorry."
"It doesn't matter, I came too early."
After being polite, Shinozuka waved his hand gently, and the clerk behind him handed out the documents in his hands to the leftists one by one.
After all the distribution was completed, the clerk returned behind Shinozuka.
"Before the meeting, let me introduce you to everyone." Shinozuka said and stood up.
Afterwards, several people sitting there also stood up and stood at attention.
"This is General Kawashima, the director of the fourth department of the 731st Epidemic Prevention and Water Supply Unit of the Kwantung Army. It produces various biological warfare agents and has 4 sections for the production of various bacteria. The place where we are meeting now is their detachment! "
After saying that, the four leftists bowed to Kawashima together, and Kawashima bowed slightly in return.
"Please keep this matter confidential!" Shinozuka continued.
"Hi!" The four Japanese Japs all responded in unison.
Shinozuka pressed his hands, and the four left ministers sat down one after another.
The expressions on their faces at this moment are different, but the four of them have one thing in common, that is fear!
Maybe they are not afraid of real swords and guns, but they are scared to death of this invisible bacteria.
Because the invisible is the scariest thing.
Kawashima saw it in his eyes and said: "Please don't be afraid, our water supply troops are very well protected and there will be no leakage problems."
Kawashima's words made the leftists feel a little more at ease, and the expressions on their faces gradually returned to normal.
Shinozuka also saw the fear on the faces of the several daizuos just now, and felt unhappy in his heart, so he said to Kawashima: "Let General Kawashima laugh."
Kawashima smiled, "It's understandable that people have long-lasting feelings."
"Please take a look at the document just sent to you. This is the budget given to us by the Military Ministry for this year." Shinozuka said.
Next, the leftists began to carefully flip through the documents in front of them.
They looked at it very carefully, because the budget was related to their training and combat plans for the year.
Ten minutes later, the leftists all put down the documents with gloomy expressions.
"Has everyone finished reading?" Shinozuka asked.
"finish watching."
"Any comments?"
"Report to General Shinozuka, is this year's budget a little short?" Daizuo Yamazaki asked first.
"Compared to last year, it is indeed much less. The empire's finances are tight, and part of it is shared by the navy. If it is not enough, each ministry is asked to solve it on its own." Shinozuka explained and gave a solution.
The leftists looked at each other, and then took a furtive glance at Kawashima, who seemed to be fine.
Now they finally know why Shinozuka asked Kawashima to attend this meeting.
Putting such an "outsider" here is to block our mouths and prevent us from making arbitrary demands.
(This chapter is not finished yet!)
Chapter 151 Military Budget
This year's budget is not only smaller, but even receiving supplies is more troublesome than last year because there are several more review procedures.
In this way, the materials at our disposal are somewhat reduced.
"General Shinozuka, I have no objection to these budgets. It's just that the new review procedures are a bit cumbersome and may affect the efficiency of the army." Kamiya Daizuo finally couldn't help but put forward his opinion.
"These are necessary to prevent moths in the army." Shinozuka said seriously.
After Shinozuka said this, some of the leftists had somewhat uneasy looks on their faces.
The military rank of the left wing is generally that of the commander of the regiment. There are about 3,800 people in a regiment. No matter how such a large regiment is managed, corruption problems will arise. Shinozuka has set up a new review process to eliminate such corruption to the greatest extent. rot.
But everyone knows why Shinozuka did this.
The leftists looked at Shinozuka, exchanged glances with each other, and then someone asked: "What did the general mean by asking us to solve the shortcomings ourselves just now?"
"China is a vast land with abundant resources. Some materials can be solved on the spot. For example, Kurosawa Dazuo's gunpowder processing factory did a very good job. Although it was destroyed by the Eighth Route Army, his gunpowder processing factory did greatly alleviate our logistics problems. pressure."
"Hey, my subordinates will definitely repair it as soon as possible and resume production." After receiving the praise from his superior, Kurosawa immediately stood up and expressed his sincerity.
"But after resuming production, don't build it together with the arsenal. I don't want to see this kind of low-level mistake again." Shinozuka continued.
"Hey, my subordinates, please keep this in mind!"
Kurosawa was relieved that he was not punished.
The arsenal was taken away and almost destroyed.
Coupled with the defeat at Yanziwu, Kurosawa has been worried these days, worried that Shinozuka will ask him to commit seppuku, but looking at the situation today, it seems that everything is fine. Not only is everything fine, but he also seems to have been praised.
After taking a long breath, Kurosawa gently sat on the chair and stopped talking. If he dared to raise any opinions at this time, it would be too short-sighted.
"Next, each wing will hurry up to train and prepare for a new round of raids."
"Hi!"
Shinozuka nodded slightly, "We must further put pressure on the Chinese government so that we can increase our bargaining chips!"
"Hi!"
"Who has any questions?"
Kamiya Daizuo thought about it for a moment, and then expressed his concerns: "As for the construction resources, can General Shinozuka allocate more."
Shinozuka shook his head, "There's really nothing we can do about it. If you need it urgently, you can ask other teams to second you."
"Does anyone have any questions?" Shinozuka asked again.
After waiting for a while, no one asked any more questions, and Shinozuka said leisurely: "Then let's adjourn the meeting. Everyone knows that three Imperial citizens have died in Taiyuan recently, right?"
"I know!" replied the leftists.
"I would like to remind everyone that you must protect the safety of the citizens of the empire within your own defense zone."
"Hi!"
