Respectfully

The Intelligence Bureau of the Six Northern Provinces acted very quickly. In less than three days, the statements of the spies were delivered to Li Jinyan.Of course, to be able to achieve "results" in such a short period of time, in addition to the efforts of the Intelligence Bureau itself, we should also thank Qiao Leshan and Ding Zhao for their great help.

"Short words, there is one Englishman, one Frenchman, four Russians, and five Japanese." The chief of the Second Division of the Intelligence Bureau is dressed in a long gown, gentle and elegant, like a teacher, "The rest are Chinese people."

"so much?"

Li Jinyan turned to the first page of the confession, and the identities and origins of these spies were all recorded on it.

What surprised Li Jinyan the most was the five Japanese. Four of them sneaked into China before the Sino-Japanese War, and after 30 or [-] years, they behaved like Chinese people through and through.

The first population census in modern China was in 1909, which was supposed to be the first year of Xuantong in history. As a result, the butterfly wing flapped and Xuantong disappeared. impossible.

The Japanese spies lurking in the six northern provinces have been wiped out. These five spies entered Guanbei under the cover of businessmen. Their intention was not to steal weapons information, but to lurk in the six northern provinces for future affairs. However, the one who planned this operation was Shigeru Honjo, who succeeded Doihara as Sakanishi's most proud disciple.

The arrest of the five people this time was purely caused by their "peers", and it was really "unlucky".

It can be seen that even if the Japanese are poor enough to be pants, their ambition to invade China has never disappeared.

Such a Japanese made Li Jinyan shudder.

"Continue to investigate, especially those few Japanese!" Li Jinyan gritted his teeth, "We must find a way to find out how many Japanese like them are hiding in China!"

"Yes!"

How to make these Japanese spies play the best role and ask for more useful information, there is one person who may be able to give good advice, Reichi Kawaguchi.

Unfortunately, he is now in North Korea.

Since going to North Korea, Kawaguchi and his men have been performing very well, assassination, assassination, stealing information, financial temptation, all available methods, these people are very familiar with it, and they are at their fingertips.They are originally Japanese, so they naturally know what can "impress" the Japanese the most.In the No.19 Division stationed in Pyongyang, many lower-level soldiers and sergeants were bribed. Through these people, Kawaguchi and others obtained a lot of useful information.

North Korea's No.19 Division and No.20 Division were adapted and trained by the garrison troops. The "quality" of the soldiers is naturally not as good as that of the veteran divisions in Japan. Of course, the Osaka Division is excluded, which is more convenient for Kawaguchi The actions of others.

The North Korean National Salvation Army led by Lee Dong-do plans to launch an attack on Pyongyang in July. Even if it cannot occupy the entire territory of Pyongyang, it must make a name for itself in the north. The courage of the people against the colonists!

After the plan was formulated, Li Dongdao sent someone to send news to the third division stationed in Sinuiju, hoping to get the support of the Huaxia army. The military support is second, and the most important thing is weapons.

The Japanese government borrowed money to survive, and the divisions stationed in the mainland only had one rice ball with radish sticks a day, and they used old-fashioned Murata. These Japanese soldiers in North Korea still want better treatment?No matter how much face Zhengyi in the temple has, he can't even think about it.If there are better weapons than Japan, Li Dongdao and the National Salvation Army are confident of winning a victory.

The answer from the third division is yes.

The rifles, as well as the grenadiers seized from the Japanese army, were sold to the North Korean National Salvation Army at an extremely "cheap" price.As for why the price is mentioned, do you think that support does not cost money?Think beautifully!

While "supporting" North Korea's independence movement, while smuggling arms and weapons to Southeast Asia in large quantities, Li Jinyan often felt that he had evolved from an honest businessman to an intelligence leader and arms dealer.

Think about it, big landlords, big capitalists, intelligence chiefs, arms dealers, so many identities gathered together, the whole is a complete "reactionary" element!Should he hide in some corner and cry in circles?By the way, reflect on yourself?

"Master Yan?"

The Director of the Second Division of the Intelligence Bureau saw that Li Jinyan was looking at the statement, and the expression on his face became more and more "bitter and bitter". The things he bought were all "ordinary", but they were just the names and identities of a few foreign spies. What did Young Master Yan think of?

The Director of the Second Division didn't see Li Jinyan many times, so he naturally didn't know what Li Sanshao was thinking, but after hearing his voice, Li Jinyan finally regained his focus and refocused on the 30-odd pages in his hand.

Most of the confessions were about weapons, among which the armored vehicles that appeared in the military parade became the "hardest hit area". Britain, Germany, France, Russia, Japan, none of them were left behind, and even the United States got involved.The British also learned from secret channels that China has more than one type of "armored vehicles", and those that showed up at the military parade are just the tip of the iceberg.John Bull's methods are extremely clever, and their intelligence personnel can touch the ugly tracks just a little bit.Seeing this, Li Jinyan couldn't help breaking out in a cold sweat.

Arrogant and complacent, underestimating the "heroes of the world" will kill people. Compared with these authentic intelligence people, his skills and knowledge are almost at the beginner level.

Li Jinyan turned to the last page of the statement, and frowned when he saw what was recorded on it.

"Someone in the military government is also involved?"

"Investigating." The director of the second division said: "Until the results come out, it is still uncertain whether what they said is true or not, and whether they are chasing and biting randomly."

"Try to find out in a short time."

Two vice-governor secretaries, a civilian officer of a military academy, and a few grassroots officials below, no matter whether they were wronged or they were actually passing information to foreigners, this incident reminded Li Jinyan, no matter how many The means may not be able to restrain the greed of some people, and may even encourage the desire in their hearts.

Money, beauty, as long as you reach out your hand, you will be stuck in the mud, and you can't pull it out.

Should he be glad that none of the "important" people involved this time?

After the Director of the Second Division of the Intelligence Bureau left, Li Jinyan went to see Young Marshal Lou. In the study, he could clearly feel the chill and killing intent emanating from Young Marshal Lou.

"It's time to kill." Young Marshal Lou's tone was very calm, without much ups and downs.

"Then..." Who did it?

"I'll do it." Before Li Jin could finish speaking, Young Marshal Lou interrupted him.

"Actually, I've wanted to say it a long time ago." Li Jinyan sat on the chair in front of the desk, leaning forward slightly, "Young Marshal, do you have anyone under your command who you can trust and who is familiar with intelligence work?"

"kindness?"

"After all, I am a monk halfway through." Li Jinyan moved closer, "Leopard's experience is there. Uncle Dumb is from the rivers and lakes. Young commander, I hope someone can help me."

Young Marshal Lou looked at Li Jinyan, and after a while, shook his head.

"why?"

"Experience can be accumulated, and," Young Marshal Lou stood up, leaning over with one hand on the table, "I trust you more than anyone else."

Li Jinyan clicked his eyes, did he believe that he could become an excellent intelligence leader?Should he be happy about it?

I always feel that on the road to reaction, he has taken another big step forward...

The intelligence bureaus of the six northern provinces wantonly arrested spies from various countries and became a bait in Li Jinyan's hands. Unfortunately, those cunning big fish seemed to be able to see the hook wrapped in the bait, and they never caught it.

Li Jinyan was not in a hurry, but ordered the Intelligence Bureau to release some news one after another, true or false, that one day, those big fish would not be able to resist biting the bait.

Once they bite, even if they can't eat it alive, they have to tear off a piece of flesh from them!

Don't they want Huaxia's armored vehicles and new weapon technology?No problem, as long as the "price" is reasonable, it can be exchanged!German submarines, French Miss Seventy-Five, British industrial technology... everyone can discuss it.

During the waiting period, Li Jinyan was not idle. He got news that the Jiangnan Shipyard controlled by the Song family was planning to manufacture [-]-ton freighters.

Li Sanshao, who only knew a little about shipbuilding technology and shipyards in the late Qing Dynasty and early Republic of China, was taken aback by Liao Qiting's telegram from the south. Can China manufacture [-]-ton freighters in this era?

After inquiring about the situation of Liao Qiting Jiangnan Shipyard in detail, Li Jinyan came to a sudden understanding.

Jiangnan Shipyard originated from the Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau and was established during the Westernization Movement of the Qing Dynasty. It is the largest and most invested modern military enterprise established by the Westernization School of the Qing Dynasty.The founders and supervisors of successive dynasties are all well-known. Zeng Wenzheng, Zuo Wenxiang, Zhang Nanpi, Li Hefei, and the four famous officials in the late Qing Dynasty were all in charge of the bureau.

After Song Zhou took control of the six southern provinces, the Jiangnan Manufacturing Bureau fell into his hands. After the confrontation between the North and the South, the domestic situation was unstable, and the development of the Machine Bureau had been stagnant. However, with decades of accumulation, the arsenal and shipyard After separation, machine tools and armored gunships can still be manufactured.

Only in recent years, due to various reasons such as backward production machines and funding, the arsenal has gradually lost its former glory, and the shipyard has also shifted from manufacturing warships and gunboats to civilian merchant ships. Five years ago, it built a displacement of more than 4000 tons. Now with the further development of the economy of the six southern provinces, the manufacture of [-]-ton giant ships has also been put on the agenda.

"No wonder." Li Jinyan put down the telegram sent by Liao Qiting, remembering that the first batch of American students returning to China were "drawn" away by the six southern provinces. Most of them were majoring in shipbuilding and machine manufacturing. This group of people.

"It really is……"

Li Jinyan shook his head, it doesn't matter if this group of people are sent away, the next group will be dragged to Dalian Shipyard no matter what they say.

However, the news from Liao Qiting also gave Li Sanshao another idea. Since he can manufacture a [-]-ton giant ship, can he try to manufacture a warship?Don't think about the Queen Elizabeth class and the Scharnhorst class for the time being. It's useless to think about it. Light cruisers shouldn't be a big problem, right?The premise is that there are reference drawings and skilled technicians.

If the British came to the door, Li Jinyan knew what he should ask the other party.

But before that, we still have to negotiate terms with the Song family. Although Song Zhou and Song Wu should not stab the knife in the back in the face of national interests, they should be on guard beforehand and should not relax.

Even if you simply do business, there is no reason to trust people easily, is there?

After discussing with Marshal Lou, Li Jinyan's telegram was sent out quickly.Song Wu was not surprised after receiving the telegram. In fact, without his instruction, Liao Qiting would not have been able to get the internal information of Jiangnan Shipyard so easily.The army of the six northern provinces not only "stimulated" the ministers of various countries, but also made the warlords in various parts of China think differently. In terms of the army alone, it is not so easy to keep pace with the six northern provinces, but the six southern provinces have their own advantages ,navy!

Although the six northern provinces have collected many old Beiyang, but in the six southern provinces, there are Jiangnan Shipyard and Mawei Shipyard.Similarly, the Beiyang Navy left its name in the tragic history of the Sino-French War, and the Nanyang Navy's courage and tenacity in the Sino-French War should not be forgotten by history.Today, the Qingshui Division, which was once the number one in Asia and the fourth in the world, has been destroyed, but the heroic souls of the officers and soldiers of the navy and the unyielding spirit of the Chinese nation will live forever!

After returning to the six southern provinces, Song Wu would often recall Lou Shengfeng's speech on the tower of the *** city, returning my great country and the glory of the prosperous age!

At that time, Song Zhou also solemnly swore an oath on the city tower to rebuild the Huaxia Navy, which would be the first step taken by the Song family and his son to fulfill this oath.

Although the road is dangerous and difficult, those who serve the country and the people are still going forward!

Song Wu took the telegram from Li Jinyan and knocked on the door of Song Zhou's study.

"Father, the six northern provinces are calling."

In late June, Li Jinyan finally took the long-awaited big fish.

The French were the first to come to Verdun. In Verdun, the German Crown Prince personally brought more modified armored vehicles, and began to use a large number of poison gas bombs. It was no longer the "familiar" chlorine gas of the British and French allied forces, but Newly developed phosgene.

The gas masks used by the Allied forces were still very simple. After the German army improved the method of releasing the gas, a large number of French soldiers fell to the ground in pain.The German army took the opportunity to advance in a big way, and the attacking force was less than three kilometers away from Verdun.

The French High Command panicked. Once Verdun was occupied by the Germans, the casualties of hundreds of thousands of French troops in the past few months will become beyond doubt.

The French need the armored vehicle technology used by the German army, and they need gas masks that can block poisonous gas!Markov in Switzerland pointed out the direction for them. At the same time, he seemed to inadvertently reveal to the French that the British had long been developing armored vehicle technology. Didn’t they provide the necessary help when France was facing difficulties?

Of course, the French would not believe all the words of a spy who only recognized money, but once the seeds of doubt were planted, sooner or later, they would take root and germinate.

Britain and France were allies in the war against Germany, but most of the time they were also rivals.

The rise of Great Britain is to step on the shoulders of Spain and France.It is not impossible to say that Britain concealed the technology of armored vehicles from its allies for some ulterior purpose.

The fact that the British obtained the manufacturing technology of sulfonamide but concealed it from their allies has been confirmed. Although the "misunderstanding" was finally solved, I am afraid that only they know what the Gallic chickens are thinking.

"A large number of gas masks and the modification technology of armored vehicles are not a problem." Li Jinyan looked at the French consul sitting across from him with a smile, "even, I can provide your country with a more advanced weapon technology, it depends on your side What can I use in exchange?"

While speaking, Li Jinyan observed the expression of the French consul, and made a statement without losing the opportunity. For payment, he only accepts gold and British pounds, and does not accept other foreign currencies, including French francs.If the French don't have enough money on hand, they can exchange it with technology.

Originally, Li Jinyan aimed at Miss Seventy-Five, the manufacturing technology of rapid-fire guns. Later, thinking about it, the French would only tell him the "life-saving" things when they were out of their minds.Since the rapid-fire gun technology does not come, then change it, a battleship, an old battleship that can be eliminated, or a blueprint of a battleship.

"Your Excellency, you can rest assured that what I want is light cruiser technology." Li Jinyan lowered his voice, "I don't need the most advanced model, you can think about it carefully."

The French consul did not agree to the conditions proposed by Li Jinyan on the spot, but he will agree sooner or later.As long as the Germans' offensive in the European battlefield is more violent, as long as the British have not sent their water tanks to the battlefield, Li Jinyan is more than [-]% sure that he can get what he wants from the French.

When the French come to the door again, the terms of the exchange will not only be like this now.

Not only France, but also Germany, Britain, and Russia. Li Sanshao counted with his fingers. Before the October Revolution in Russia, there was a February Revolution. In the February Revolution, the Russian Navy played a big role. If he remembers correctly, a certain fleet of Tsarist Russia will launch a mutiny soon, right?The polar bear in the Far East will soon reveal its weakest side to the world. At that time, it will be time for Huaxia to chop off the bear's claws with a knife.

The only thing that makes Li Jinyan regret is that so far, no Chinese intelligence personnel have had a relationship with the future leader of the White Army Kolchak, but it doesn't matter, how can everything go well?The gods probably can't do it either.

Just as he was thinking, the housekeeper came to report and the German consul came to visit.

Li Sanshao twitched his lips, flicked his sleeves, and went to see the guest!

Submarine, I have been waiting for you for a long time...
