Heroes of the Anti-Japanese War

Chapter 136 Secret Mission
Yaguchi Kenzo came to Kono Harue's residence secretly again.

"The Ganchazi incident is over. How did those people in the intelligence department react?" Kono Harue asked.

Ganchazi is a small island in the HLJ near Xunke.Although it is small, it is also six kilometers long and two or three kilometers wide.Ganchazi Island and several nearby small islands are rich in gold mines.

In June, the Soviet army suddenly dispatched patrol boats to occupy Ganchazi Island and two or three nearby small islands.

The news reached the Japanese military and foreign ministry.Both the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Ministry of Military Affairs advocated compromise and peace.However, the daring Kwantung Army suddenly dispatched and destroyed the Soviet patrol boat on HLJ.

To the surprise of the military and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Soviet army quickly withdrew from Ganchazi Island and apologized.

Newspapers in Japan and Manchukuo quickly reported the whole incident with words such as great victory.

As a result, the Kwantung Army's self-confidence began to expand rapidly.

The Japanese military department was worried that the Kwantung Army would take bigger actions without authorization, so it also secretly paid close attention to the movements of the Kwantung Army's top leaders.

"Those arrogant guys don't take the Soviet army seriously now. If this continues, they will definitely do more outrageous things." Yaguchi Kenzo replied.

"You are a member of the second class. How is your judgment?" Kono Harue asked.

This is what the Japanese military is most concerned about now.The Intelligence Department of the Kwantung Army specialized in intelligence work against the Soviet Union.They should know the actual situation better than the Japanese military.

Yaguchi Kenzo worked in the second squad in the intelligence department of the Kwantung Army, which is the clerical intelligence squad.He should know the situation of the Soviet army very well.

"From the analysis of the radio broadcasts and the magazines and newspapers secretly sent from the Soviet Union, the military industry of the Soviet Union is advancing by leaps and bounds. The number of weapons such as artillery, tanks and aircraft is growing rapidly. Moreover, the industrial potential and resources of the Soviet Union are definitely not Japan is comparable." Yaguchi Kenzo replied.

"A report I wrote on the industrial development of Komsomolsk in Amur has been given to the Minister of Intelligence. Maybe people in the military department will also see it. Several industrial cities like this are being built rapidly from the Far East to Siberia. "Yaguchi Kenzo continued.

Kono Harue nodded.Yaguchi Kenzo's report to the military should not have been seen.If the Kwantung Army wants to take action against the Soviet Union, it can only let the top Japanese army see news that is not good for the Soviet Union.

Yaguchi Kenzo is the eyes of the few Japanese military units placed in the Kwantung Army.

"Anything else?" Kono Harue asked.

"The Ministry of Intelligence's monitoring operation failed completely. I heard that the Ministry of Intelligence sent two intelligence teams to the direction of the Halaha River and Alshan, but I don't know the specific purpose of the operation." Kenzo Yaguchi replied.

Kono Harue nodded thoughtfully.

"How about that Qian Xiaobao?" Kono Harue asked.

"He's a smart and cunning guy. Is Senior going to use him?" Yaguchi Kenzo asked.

Kono Harue nodded: "In the intelligence department of the Kwantung Army, you are a loner. And your background and family background, if there is a leak, they will easily suspect you. So I want to find a pair that they can't expect. Keep your eyes on them."

Yaguchi Kenzo's grandfather was the backbone of the shogunate.However, most of the high-level members of the Japanese military came from the downfall faction, and they were not from the same path at all.This is why Yaguchi Kenzo is not reused.

Yaguchi nodded. "I heard that there has been a movement in Japan to collect scrap metal from households. We are too short on resources, and there is a full-scale war in the south. We can't afford to fight the Russians in the north at the same time."

"But I feel that Qian Xiaobao is very similar to Wang Qingji who has disappeared, like a bandit. Can such a person take on the tasks entrusted to him by his predecessors?" Yaguchi Kenzo asked worriedly.

"That's why he won't arouse suspicion," Kono Harue replied.

"If that's the case, senior can send him to the [-]th unit." Yaguchi Kenzo suggested.

The [-]th Unit is a Russian language education team established by the Intelligence Department of the Kwantung Army to train intelligence personnel.The Russian language is becoming more and more important to enter the Kwantung Army Intelligence Department.

"I'm thinking about it." Kono Harue nodded.

When Yaguchi Kenzo was talking with Kono Harue, Qian Xiaobao and Guan Xiaoye were sitting in the Xile Tea House listening to an opera.

The two of them met here.But the two of them haven't been here recently.

You can see Bai Mudan when you come to Xile Tea House to listen to the opera.Qian Xiaobao deliberately put on the suit that Master Guan bought for him at a high price.The leather shoes are also polished.In order to polish the leather shoes, Qian Xiaobao spit, his mouth was dry.

Finally, comb the hair into a big part with a wooden comb dipped in water.

Second Master Qi really couldn't stand it anymore.

"Where are you going to make a fuss? It's almost enough, comb your hair like a dog licks it!" Second Master Qi scolded.

Only then did Qian Xiaobao think of Second Master Qi.Ordinarily, someone of Qi Erye's age should be more willing to listen to operas than him.

But for so long he forgot about it.

"There are so many theaters in Harbin, how nice it is to go out and listen to operas every day! Didn't I give you money? Don't stay at home all day!" Qian Xiaobao said.

After saying this, Qian Xiaobao left the house in a flash.

Seeing Master Guan came to listen to the play again, Aunt Chang quickly ran out from the backstage.

"Master Guan, you haven't come to take care of our business for a long time!" Aunt Chang said with a smile.

Although she looked at Guan Xiaoye with a happy face, she turned a blind eye to Qian Xiaobao who was beside him.

When Qian Xiaobao saw Aunt Chang like this, he became very angry.

"Aunt Chang, don't talk like that. What does it mean to take care of your business? People who know it say that what you just said means taking care of the business of your teahouse. Those who don't know think this is such a place, what are you? Where is the old bustard!" Qian Xiaobao said.

What Qian Xiaobao said caused roars of laughter in the teahouse.

An old man nodded and said, "It's really too condescending to sing in a teahouse with Aunt Chang's clever mouth."

There was another burst of laughter in the teahouse.

Aunt Chang's face turned from white to blue, and then from blue to red.

"Which woman doesn't learn how to steal wild men and give birth to a bastard like you!" Aunt Chang scolded.

"Mom! Don't you know me? You are really my own mother!" Qian Xiaobao countered unwilling to show weakness.

Everyone in the teahouse burst into laughter.Several old men laughed until their noses and tears flowed down their beards.

Aunt Chang is well-known for her eloquence.But I didn't expect to meet the evil star Qian Xiaobao today.

Aunt Chang was so angry that she was trembling all over.She pointed at Qian Xiaobao with trembling fingers and scolded: "Little turtle, just wait for me! My old lady, I'm definitely not easy to mess with!"
