Chapter 213: The Great Day Empire Bears the Blame
Jiuchi Jingluren said impatiently, "I don't know what's there to negotiate about. Don't care about life or death. Just do it. It's such a simple matter. Why do you have to make it so complicated?"
Jia Xiaolin rolled his eyes when he heard this. He didn't have the courage to discuss the decision of the top leaders in private, so he just echoed:
"Maybe it's because we take all aspects into consideration, so we are more cautious."
At this point, he changed the subject and said, "Captain Jiuchijing, since we're done here, why don't we go to the French Concession and see if Captain Daoqiao has anything to do!"
When Kuikei heard that Shimahashi Shinichi was in the French Concession, he replied, "Let's go! Let's go and take a look together!"
The two men brought their people to the French Concession, but it seemed as if the French Concession had received a call from the International Settlement, and the demonstrators were soon dispersed by the police.
Jiang Yifan was wondering when he saw Jiuchi Jingliren and Jia Xiaolin walking over.
"What's going on?" Jiang Yifan looked at the two of them and asked.
So Jia Xiaolin told the whole story.
Jiang Yifan gave Jia Xiaolin a thumbs up and said, "Jia Jun! Great friend! Be brave!"
Jia Xiaolin was overjoyed to receive Jiang Yifan's praise. He felt very honored to be praised and appreciated by the second "Ma Sibao" in Shanghai.
So, Jiang Yifan asked Jia Xiaolin to explain the situation to the demonstrators, and after confirming that they would gather at the gate of the cotton textile factory at 8 o'clock the day after tomorrow, he disbanded the demonstrators and the three of them led the team back to the gendarmerie headquarters.
Sato Ichiro saw Jiang Yifan and Jia Xiaolin and praised them with satisfaction:
"Yoshi! You guys have achieved great results."
Then he opened the drawer and gave each person a bonus of 200 yuan!
Then he reminded her, "The day after tomorrow is the most critical day. Whether we can achieve our goal depends entirely on whether we can make a breakthrough on the day after tomorrow. Therefore, you two must work together and strive to bring the anti-British and French wave to a greater climax the day after tomorrow! Force Britain and France to make the concessions we want!"
"Hayi!"
Jiang Yifan and Jia Xiaolin bowed and answered Sato Ichiro at the same time.
"I see you have imprisoned a British businessman. What's the matter?"
Keiko Tanaka looked at Jiang Yifan and asked.
"Now that I have time, I am going to interrogate him and see if I can use him for our benefit. If we can get some British businessmen to join our demonstration the day after tomorrow and take the lead in shouting anti-British slogans, wouldn't that be more meaningful?"
Jiang Yifan looked at Keiko Tanaka and spoke his thoughts truthfully.
"Yoshi! That's a good idea! If they are willing, it will be more beneficial to us."
Hihara Ryosuke answered happily.
"If we put a few British people in front of the parade, it will arouse the anger of the British people. In this way, the chances of a conflict between the two sides will be greater. At that time, our chances of winning will be greater, and the benefits we will get will be greater."
Tokita Chaoyang also said excitedly.
Li Qun fell silent again!
Damn it, now when Shinichi Shimabashi farts, several Japanese senior officials smell the fragrance.
But before Li Qun could calm down, Hihara Ryosuke looked at him and asked:
"Mr. Li! You have to work harder and learn from Captain Daoqiao! Have the Chinese agents and the underground party found anything in the past few days?"
Li Qunzhi was complaining in his heart, what a bad year it was!
Wherever this island bridge goes, the place is bustling with activity, but his own is always mediocre, with no achievements to show off.
The only thing that comforted him was that no serious incidents had occurred during this period, so he replied:
"There has been no movement from Chinese agents and underground parties these days. We have been closely monitoring their movements. As long as they make any move, we will arrest them."
"It sounds good, but until now, the Great Japanese Empire has been blamed for Johnson's gun and ammunition case. If the truth can be found, it will be a loud slap in the face to the British! Unfortunately, there is still no clue so far."
Sato Ichiro said dissatisfiedly.
"Yes, yes, yes! It's all because of my subordinates' incompetence. Manager Jia Xiaolin and I had already kept an eye on Huamanlou Nightclub, but now with this commotion, all clues are gone!" Li Qun answered truthfully.
After saying that, he looked at Jia Xiaolin, as if asking him to say something for help!
Jia Xiaolin took a look and said quickly:
"Yes, yes, yes! Director Li, we have already discovered that the two Chinese partners of Hua Man Lou Nightclub look very much like the disciples of another Green Gang leader Du Yunqing. We wanted to keep an eye on them in the small building for a few days, but we didn't expect an accident to happen. Three Japanese masters were forced to death in the small building by the British police, and it also caused such a big turmoil."
"Even so, we cannot relax our surveillance of Du Yunqing's Green Gang's movements! Especially the day after tomorrow, we must not let them take advantage of the loopholes and ruin our overall plan!"
Keiko Tanaka looked at Jia Xiaolin, then at Li Qun, and said with a serious expression.
"I understand! I understand!" Jia Xiaolin and Li Qun answered at the same time.
"Also, Commander Sato, you must also be prepared for both situations! Be sure to prepare for the worst, just in case." Tokita Chaoyang said to Sato Ichiro.
"Consul Tokita, please rest assured. I have already contacted the dispatched troops. As long as we make a call, the reinforcements will be able to enter Shanghai from the west of Shanghai within an hour."
Sato Ichiro said confidently.
Jiang Yifan was delighted when he heard that, but he immediately calmed down and pretended that he hadn't heard anything.
Everyone then discussed the matters related to the day after tomorrow and then dispersed.
After get off work, Jiang Yifan stopped by the delicatessen again and reported the latest news, especially emphasizing that the day after tomorrow would be the day of a decisive battle with the British, that Japanese reinforcements would enter Shanghai from the west of the city, and that Du Yunqing and his Green Gang had already come into the Japanese sight.
Then he took a roast chicken and went home.
Xiao Yunlong did not dare to delay and immediately reported the situation to the Shancheng headquarters.
Zhang Xiansheng immediately handed the telegram from the lighter team to Boss Dai.
After reading the telegram, Boss Dai put his hands behind his back, walked back and forth in the office for more than ten times, and then looked at Zhang Xiansheng.
But Zhang Xiansheng waited for a long time, but Boss Dai didn't say a word.
This made Zhang Xiansheng even more uneasy. He unconsciously wiped the sweat from his forehead with his hand, knowing that this was a critical moment.
Boss Dai walked around the office a few more times without saying anything. He walked to his desk and sat down. He seemed to be planning something, yet seemed unable to make a decision.
The office suddenly fell silent, as if a life-and-death battle was about to begin.
Either you explode in silence or you perish in silence!
