Chapter 858: Corruption by Imperial Order
Seeing Chen Yang's puzzled expression, Li Xianshu said slowly: "To be honest, your selling of supplies is not a secret."
"The Navy Logistics Department, the Army Logistics Department, the Military Police Command, and the material sales network you created with the Manchuria Railway."
"These things are all solid and can be verified by evidence."
"Although you are very clever and have won over a lot of military officers to protect you, not everyone in this world likes money."
"You don't need to explain in a hurry. I know that the network in your hands is not just about money, but people."
"But you use so much material to build a network. When the truth comes out, you will be the one to bear the responsibility."
"Mr. Fujiwara knows that your network is getting bigger and bigger, and you can't stop it just because you want to."
"He was afraid that something might happen to you in the future, so he came up with this idea."
Chen Yang swallowed and said, "Aunt, I still don't understand."
"You are so smart, you must have thought of it." Li Xianshu said slowly: "I know you will not fight a battle without preparation."
"You must have thought of a backup plan when you were weaving this web. For you, there are only two choices."
"Either they just walk away, or they find someone else to take the blame."
"You promoted those people in the Joint Transportation Department to such high ranks to prepare for the future."
"However, these people who take the blame will not be so quiet. When it comes to a life-and-death situation, no one knows whether they will be unable to bear it and let you out."
"When the time comes, if you cooperate with the Red Party, cooperate with the National Army, embezzle materials from the Logistics Department, engage in smuggling, and engage in corruption, and these things are exposed, the higher-ups will definitely punish you."
"Moreover, if someone uses public opinion to make a fuss, even if you have hundreds of officials as your umbrella, hundreds of millions of people across the country will not agree."
"Mr. Fujiwara, I'm afraid that even your net won't be able to stop the knife from cutting down."
"So, he wants to make your identity legitimate."
At this point, Chen Yang seemed to have understood what his cheap father-in-law wanted to do...
To be honest, Chen Yang's way out was indeed as Li Xianshu said, either leave or find someone to take the blame. However, what Li Xianshu didn't know was that his choice was to leave.
He has made plans in Southeast Asia and established connections with various countries in order to expand overseas.
As for promoting those people, it was just a matter of convenience. Only when they held high positions would Chen Yang be able to do his job.
Li Xianshu said in a gentle voice: "We are not allies with the Soviet Union, so it is difficult to gain their trust."
"As early as last year, when you were working together to establish Yamato Oil, Mr. Fujiwara was thinking about how to rationalize your behavior. Until you got the Barbarossa Plan, Mr. Fujiwara used this as an excuse to bring up this plan in front of the Emperor."
"He has been trying to clear your name since he came back from the Soviet Union."
"All your transactions and all the little tricks you did with the logistics department were to improve efficiency and prepare for the trade of intelligence with the Soviet Union."
"He needs to portray you as a profit-seeking businessman in order to gain the Soviets' trust."
"Your Majesty also accepted his explanation, so he awarded you the medal."
"Even if something really happens in the future, His Majesty can use this reason to pardon your crime."
Chen Yang was somewhat moved after hearing this. This father-in-law was truly righteous.
Unfortunately, Japan’s defeat was inevitable, and the future emperor would be just a mascot without much real power.
Instead of trying to please him, it would be more practical to hook up with Emperor Mike.
However, it’s different now. With His Majesty’s endorsement, am I now committing corruption in compliance with the emperor’s order?
Don't be afraid of any supervisory department or local special envoys.
Chen Yang nodded and said, "Aunt, I know what to do."
Li Xianshu showed a relieved smile on her face, "Chen Yang, it's okay to suffer a little for the sake of the empire."
"Of course," Chen Yang said with a hypocritical smile, "I have a sincere heart for the empire. Don't worry, aunt, I will definitely complete the task."
Li Xianshu nodded, picked up the phone and called in Matsushima Hisao and Iwai Sadatoshi.
"Knock, knock, knock." After a while, there was a knock on the door, and Hisao Matsushima and Sadatoshi Iwai walked into the office one after another.
"Iwai-kun, the headquarters has already decided that Minister Chen will be in charge of the 'River God Project',"
"You are responsible for collecting the information needed for the transaction. As your liaison officer between Minister Chen and you, Songdao-kun will be responsible for the communication between the two of you."
"any questions?"
Iwai Sadatoshi bowed quickly and said, "Madam, I have no problem."
Hisao Matsushima also respectfully agreed.
Li Xianshu rubbed his brows and said, "Chen Yang, go back and prepare first. I believe Mogeev will contact you in a few days to discuss the medicine."
"You have to seize the opportunity."
"I understand," Chen Yang stood up and bowed slightly to Li Xianshu, saying, "Then I'll take my leave first."
He turned around and nodded slightly to Matsushima Hisao and Iwai Sadatoshi and said goodbye.
After Chen Yang left, Iwai Sadatoshi followed closely and left the office.
However, Hisao Matsushima did not leave in a hurry. Instead, he watched the two leave and handed a telegram to Li Xianshu.
Li Xianshu put on her glasses, took the telegram handed to her by Matsushima Hisao, and read it carefully.
After a long while, Li Xianshu sighed, put down the telegram in his hand and said calmly: "Commander Anan still refuses to give up the plan to attack Changsha?"
"Now the Second Squadron of Hubei's flight group has been transferred to the northeast for preparation."
"Without air support, his plan to attack Changsha may be more difficult than before."
Matsushima Hisao replied respectfully, "Madam, Commander Anan has ordered his personal advisor, Mr. Miura, to come to Shanghai with the battle plan."
"However, Commander Nishio does not seem to intend to approve his combat plan application."
"Commander Anan meant for Madam to provide some strong evidence to prove that this battle can be won."
Li Xianshu frowned, hesitated for a moment and said: "Our intelligence agency can only provide relevant information to the military."
"As for what happens on the battlefield, let's leave it to the people in the War Command Department to make the judgment."
"Reply to Commander Anan. If the senior officers of the dispatched forces think the timing is not right, please obey the orders of your superiors."
Matsushima Hisao bowed slightly and said, "I understand. I will reply to Commander Anan immediately."
Shanghai Stock Exchange, Joint Transport Department.
Chen Yang had just sat down when his secretary He Yuehua knocked on the door and came in, bowing slightly to Chen Yang and saying, "Minister, Mr. Sanpu from Wuhan has been waiting for you for a long time."
"Would you like to see him?"
"Mr. Miura?" Chen Yang looked at He Yuehua in confusion.
He Yuehua quickly said: "He is the new commander of the 11th Army, Commander Anan's personal adviser."
