Chapter 652 This is indeed reasonable
No? Is he sick? The great raids left the North China Front Army in disgrace and with heavy losses. What does that have to do with me?
You are the chief of staff of the North China Front Army, and you came to Shanghai to complain to the commander-in-chief of the China Expeditionary Army?
And you want to put the blame for the massive raid on a transport officer?
What the hell, what are they thinking? Isn't this just like accusing an illiterate person who can't even read a word of reading state secrets?
Damn it, who can take such a big blame?
Seeing Chen Yang's expression changing from gloomy to bright, Wan Tianmu on the side quickly made an excuse that No. 76 had something to do and ran away.
Just kidding, as an intelligence chief, how could he listen to such gossip between the Minister of Transport and the Chief of Staff of the North China Front Army?
Qing Qi pulled out a chair, sat down and said, "Mr. Chen, did the North China Front Army have any evidence against you?"
"Otherwise, Mr. Qingshui wouldn't have come all the way from North China to Shanghai."
"What handle?" Chen Yang chuckled and said, "I am an honest transport officer. What handle can they catch me with?"
"Qingqi-kun, do you know when Lord Qingshui will arrive in Shanghai?"
I always feel something is wrong when using the adjective "honest and honest" to describe you, Minister Chen.
Qingqi Qingyin shook his head and said, "The people have already arrived at the Chinese Expeditionary Force Headquarters."
"Mr. Chen, I feel like this guy has bad intentions. He brought a secretary with him and sneaked onto the train."
"No one noticed me along the way. I didn't reveal my identity until I entered the expeditionary force headquarters."
"According to my estimation, Mr. Chen should receive an inquiry call from the headquarters soon."
As if in response to Qingqi Qingyin's words, before Chen Yang answered, the phone on the table rang.
Chen Yang picked up the phone and heard the voice of Abe Mitsuhiro, a staff officer of the expeditionary force headquarters.
"Minister Chen, the headquarters has received an accusation from Major General Shimizu Kazuichiro, Chief of Staff of the North China Front Army. We hope you can put down all the work at hand and come to the headquarters now."
"Commander Nishio wishes to hear your own explanation."
"Okay, I'll be there right away." Chen Yang hung up the phone and said to Qingqi Qingyin with a wry smile: Qingqi Jun, you really got it right.
"This Major General Shimizu actually complained about me in front of Commander Nishio. Well, I won't keep you here. I have to go to the headquarters office."
Qingqi Qingyin showed a glimmer of sympathy in his eyes, bowed slightly and said: "Mr. Chen, please take care of yourself."
Chen Yang bowed slightly and returned the greeting, saying: "Don't worry, Qingqi-kun, I am innocent, and no one can put a hood on my head."
Shanghai, the office of the commander-in-chief of the Chinese Expeditionary Force.
Commander Nishio showed a hint of impatience on his face. In front of his desk, Major General Shimizu Kazuichiro, Chief of Staff of the North China Front Army, had been chattering for more than an hour.
From his words, Commander Nishio concluded two points.
First, Shimizu Kazuichiro was shirking responsibility. He believed that the reason why the Red Party was able to cause such great damage to the North China Front Army in a short period of time was entirely because they had received a large amount of equipment replenishment in recent times.
As to whether it is really a large amount, that depends on one's opinion.
Because, according to the information currently collected by the Special Forces Department on the battlefield.
The Red Party dispatched 75 regiments for this operation, including three artillery companies, using the lowest-level MM mountain artillery and some mortars.
Armor, no, aircraft, no...
Moreover, according to statistics from the Special Service Department, each person in the Red Party troops had five to ten rounds of ammunition.
Some militia-like units even require three people to share one gun, with three bullets per person.
With this kind of equipment, they actually reduced the number of troops of the North China Front Army by more than half? It would be a shame for the imperial soldiers to tell others about it, but this guy actually talked here for more than an hour.
Another point is that Commander Tada’s popularity is worrying.
The North China Front Army had 25,000 fixed combat personnel, while the number of puppet troops participating in the public security and anti-counterrevolutionary plan reached over 200,000.
In other words, although Commander Tada nominally had an army of only 25,000 men, he was actually able to command more than 200,000 men to participate in the battle.
However, after the battle, not only did he fail to form an effective defense, but he also lost more than 50,000 troops to the Red Party within three days.
More than 10,000 imperial soldiers died.
Not only that, the Kwantung Army's 7th and 9th Divisions had been in the interior of the country. After a battle of this level occurred, the Kwantung Army did not rush to provide assistance in the first place.
Now, it is a chief of staff who has come to the Shanghai Stock Exchange to find someone to take the blame.
Moreover, they chose an official from the Ministry of Transport to take the blame. Are they all lobsters? Are their brains full of shit?
Knock, knock, knock. Commander Nishio came back to his senses and said in a deep voice, "Come in."
Chen Yang pushed open the door of the office and saw four or five officials sitting inside. Well, they were all old acquaintances.
Except for the middle-aged man standing in front of the desk.
Commander Nishio stood up and said, "Minister Chen, this is Major General Shimizu Kazuichiro, Chief of Staff of the North China Front Army."
"He came to Shanghai today because there is something he needs you to explain to him in person."
"Major General Shimizu submitted some evidence proving that Minister Chen seemed to have had arms deals with the Red Party."
"I wonder what you have to say about this?"
Chen Yang glanced at Qingshui and Ichiro and said, "Mr. Qingshui, you must be responsible for what you say. What evidence do you have that I have a deal with the Red Party?"
"Do you have any evidence of our transaction?"
Shimizu Kazuichiro said in a deep voice: "Commander, we found out that the Red Party received a large amount of arms subsidies in July."
"There are more than 20,000 rifles alone, and a batch of explosives, which are specially used to destroy bunkers, roads and railways."
"And these arms all came from Shanghai. We are very sure that this matter is related to Minister Chen."
Chen Yang chuckled and said, "Then what evidence do you have to prove that these materials came from Shanghai?"
Qingshui Heyilang was stunned for a moment and said: "Minister Chen is not going to admit it at this time. Are you trying to say that the weapons that the Red Party has recently obtained are all dropped from the sky?"
Chen Yang shook his head and said, "That's not necessarily true. However, most of the Red Party's bases are in mountainous areas or desolate places, where there are few people. China is famous for its vast land and abundant resources. With so many people, it is reasonable for them to pick up some wild munitions."
"Eight wild deer." Upon hearing this, Shimizu Kazuichiro was furious: "Wild munitions, are you insulting my intelligence, Minister Chen?"
Chen Yang looked at Qingshui and Ichiro with a smile and said, "Mr. Qingshui, I advise you to be more polite when talking to me."
"What if the Reds pick up some wild 75MM mountain cannons or even 105MM howitzers? What will Commander Tada do?"
