Chapter 190 Absurd Failure
"The bureau chief, the urgent telephone from the spring breeze is coming. It's really incredible. Major General Miura Saburo, the commander of the Japanese military police in Shanghai, was preparing to assassinate the commander-in-chief of the Japanese dispatched troops who visited the Shanghai market on July 7 to inspect."
"This plan was initiated by Saburo Miura, assisted by the Japanese Navy Third Fleet Command and the Marine Corps Command. The military police were responsible for the operations of the concession. Nanzao Yunko hired a group of killers from the Shanghai Stock Exchange. After the matter was completed, it was used as an excuse to capture the concession." Pan Qiwu said.
Dai Li was also a little stunned after hearing the telegram. Is this too outrageous? In order to provoke trouble, the Japanese military police commander actually wanted to assassinate the commander-in-chief of the dispatch army. How did these Japanese people look like their heads?
"He can't get involved in such a big thing. He told Chunfeng to pay close attention to the development of the situation, but not to act rashly." Dai Li said.
Although the Japanese army occupied the concession and posed a threat to the Military Control Commission, Boss Dai still believed that occupying the concession would be beneficial to the Yamashiro government, and that the declaration of war on Japan by the United States, Britain and France could greatly reduce the pressure on the Yamashiro government.
July 7, 29th year of the Republic of China, was the third anniversary of the July 7 Incident and the third anniversary of the full-scale war of resistance. Therefore, all aspects of the Shanghai Stock Exchange were facing great enemies. From the Japanese to the concession, to the Shanghai Special Market Government of the Wang Puppet Government, they took measures to prevent social unrest.
Starting from July 6, all the police stations in the concession were mobilized and they stood guard at various streets and intersections 24 hours a day to prevent conflicts.
The Japanese war zone in Hongkou, Shanghai Stock Exchange is even more vigilant, with three steps and five steps. Japanese expatriates were warned by the Marine Corps Command to not go out to the streets during the day, so as not to arouse public anger and put themselves in danger.
Nishio Suzuo was the commander-in-chief of the Japanese dispatched army. Without breaking up, he came to Shanghai to inspect in such an identity. According to convention, he should receive hospitality in the concession and be accompanied by ministers from consulates from various countries.
"This bastard doesn't agree to the Huamao Hotel, but actually ran to the International Hotel? You can hurry up and hurry up. It's a lot of calculations but he's crazy enough!" After receiving a call from Nanzao Yunko, Saburo Miura cursed.
Nishio Suzusao was so crazy that she was out of bounds. The ministers from various countries had already arrived at the Chinachem Hotel. He actually changed the reception location without authorization to go to the international hotel. This was a very serious act of rudeness.
"No, why didn't you hear the movement after twelve o'clock? Did this assassination fail?" Chen Mingxiang said in the office of Huatong Trading Company, looking out the window.
From his personal point of view, he did not want the Japanese army to occupy the concession. With such a place as a cover, the brothers in the Shanghai Stock Exchange of the Military Control Commission could still hide. Once the Japanese army entered the concession, they would not even have the last support.
"Sir, all the Japanese warships on the river have left, and the Japanese Marine Corps has not left the Japanese war zone at all." Zhou Guojun, who was responsible for monitoring these two places, called and said.
The Navy Fleet and the Marine Corps did not take action, which shows that Saburo Miura's assassination plan failed and the concession escaped.
He didn't know that the military police headquarters was in chaos now, and Major Komura and others were all under house arrest by the guards built by Nishio Shou. Now the guard has checked Miura Saburo's office.
"Bastard, Nanzao Yunko, you are simply crazy. You dare to violate the laws of the Great Japanese Empire and participate in the treason of the assassination of General Nishio. What do you think of military discipline and national laws? Are you worthy of being an imperial soldier?" Major Komura was furious.
Miura Saburo's plan strictly keeps the special high school courses confidential. After all, the nature of this matter is too bad. In order to avoid anyone informing Nishio Suzu, even Grandpa Gangmura did not know about this.
However, the guards of the General Command surrounded the military police headquarters and detained Saburo Miura, and the matter could not be kept secret. Nanzao Yunko had to confess to the incident to Komura Major.
When the Gang Village master heard the whole inside story, his face turned pale. He assassinated the commander-in-chief of the dispatch army and assassinated an Imperial Army general. This is the consequence of being shot. A group of damn people, I was dragged to death by you.
"Secretary, for the benefit of the Great Japanese Empire, I am not afraid of death. Similarly, it is worth sacrificing General Nishio for the benefit of the Empire."
"It's a pity that this time failed. If it succeeds, the Marines can occupy the concession and eradicate this isolated island that hides anti-Japanese elements. Only in this way can the situation in the Shanghai market be truly controlled by the empire." Nanzao Yunko said firmly, with two clear slap marks on her face.
This time the incident was broken by the Japanese military police. They were usually poor like crabs, and they were also swaggering in the US concession and did not know where to hide. They were so unprofessional that they were extremely unprofessional.
As a result, the American soldiers who were alerted outside the International Hotel were discovered and arrested, forcing Saburo Miura to save people at the US Marine Corps camp.
Nishio Suzuno became the commander-in-chief of the dispatched army, not a simple person. When he heard the US ambassador to Shanghai talk about this, he became suspicious and immediately ordered the guard to enter the military police headquarters, seized Saburo Miura and searched his office.
As a result, a batch of Anmin notices printed in English, Japanese and Chinese were found, saying that Japan took over the security management rights of the concession, and hoped that people from all walks of life would cooperate.
"What did you say? I want to transfer Saburo Miura back to China to be the principal of the military police school? He openly sent the military police to the concession to assassinate me, intending to provoke a war between Japan and the United States, Britain and France. Such a bad behavior should be shot!" Nishio Sho's statue was a cat with a trampled tail.
"This is what Prince Zairen of the Immortal Palace means, and the Chief General of Staff Sugiyama is the same. I will escort Miura Saburo back to the country in three days. If you have any comments, just react directly to the General Staff Headquarters." The special envoy of the General Staff Headquarters said.
These two names immediately calmed down Nishio Suo's anger. Prince Sairen of the Immortal Palace was the emperor's uncle and the manipulator behind the war of aggression against China. He was in charge of the army for the Emperor, and his authority was not violated.
The fall of the cabinet led by Minuchi Mitsumasa was caused by the Deputy Chief of Staff Shigeru Sawada, who held the seal of the old Japanese and forced the Army Minister Shinro Hata to resign. This shows how powerful this prince is.
Nishio Suzuo also knew why Saburo Miura escaped unscathed. A group of people from Minumasato Minumasa and Yamamoto Irojiu, strongly opposed the alliance with Germany, and the army wanted to participate in the Axis powers, so Minumasa's cabinet fell.
