Chairman Chiang kept complaining about Kong Xiangxi.
Dai Li lowered his hands and stood aside without saying a word, but he said in his heart, why did Minister Kong not buy these equipments because they were old equipments? He secretly sent someone to investigate and found that although these equipment were not brand new, they were at least 60% new. The reason why Minister Kong did not buy these equipment was because after buying this equipment and setting up an industry, domestically produced cheap drugs and medicines were available in the domestic market. Industrial products, he would not be able to earn high price differences by reselling pharmaceuticals and industrial products!
At that time, the Ministry of Industry was no longer under the control of Kong Xiangxi, so starting an industry would not be of any benefit to the Kong family.
Chairman Chiang added: "Now that the New Fourth Army has pharmaceutical and chemical plants, it's even more serious."
Dai Li quickly said: "About this, there is no need for the committee to worry too much. Although Xu Rui has worked hard to obtain the equipment of a pharmaceutical factory and a chemical factory, it may not be possible to run a pharmaceutical factory and a chemical factory. After all, this requires skilled Workers, where do the skilled workers come from in Dameishan? What’s more... "
Chairman Chiang frowned and asked, "What's more?"
Dai Li quickly continued: "What's more, the Japanese will probably not wait for Xu Rui to set up a pharmaceutical factory and a chemical factory. If nothing goes wrong this time, the Japanese army in Central China will definitely launch a large-scale attack on Xu Rui's Dameishan base area." During the mopping-up operation, it’s hard to say whether Xu Rui can hold the territory of Damei Mountain, let alone other areas?”
"Will it?" said Chairman Chiang. "The Japanese government is not having an easy time right now."
Dai Li said: "No matter how difficult the Japanese government's life is, it can still dispatch two or three divisions."
Zheng Jiemin also said: "I agree with your opinion, because tomorrow morning Xu Rui will have a public trial of Doihara Kenji and Kawashima Yoshiko, and then a public sentencing, and maybe a public execution! This is a huge blow to the Japanese government, Japanese army and even The Japanese royal family will definitely retaliate for this public humiliation."
"Wait a minute, what did you just say?" Chairman Jiang lost his voice and said, "A public trial and a public trial? Doihara Kenji and Kawashima Yoshiko were actually arrested by Xu Rui? Xu Rui wants to hold a public trial and trial against them?"
Zheng Jiemin nodded and said: "Yes, the time is tomorrow morning, and the location is Meizhen!"
"Unbridled, simply unbridled!" Chairman Chiang said angrily, "He is just a local government, oh no, even the local government is still illegal. He is a mere illegal local government, where does he have the authority to publicly try prisoners of war? Such a situation , immediately sent a note to Yan'an, asking Xu Rui to immediately hand over all Japanese prisoners of war to the Nationalist Government!"
The Japanese government's strategy towards China has changed. Chairman Chiang is unable to find a way to win over the Japanese, nor can he find a good reason to fall out with the Japanese. Now Xu Rui has handed over the handle to him. If Xu Ruiruo hands over the prisoners of war, He could use these prisoners of war to show his goodwill to Japan. If Xu Rui refused to hand over, it would immediately give the Nationalist Government an excuse to fall out.
At that moment, Chairman Chiang said: "Not only Doihara Kenji and Kawashima Yoshiko, but also the Japanese generals who were captured before and the more than 10,000 prisoners of war of the 10th Division must be immediately transferred to the custody of the Nationalist Government, and must be contacted with Yan'an They made it clear that they have no authority to deal with these prisoners of war and must hand over the prisoners of war unconditionally!"
Xu Rui captured several Japanese generals and more than 10,000 prisoners of war. Chairman Chiang knew this. Before, Chairman Chiang only admired and admired him, and did not have many thoughts in his heart. But now, Chairman Chiang has no idea about these things. The Japanese prisoners of war have a new idea, because if this matter is handled, it will become a good card!
These matters were not actually under Dai Li's control, but Dai Li still recorded them and said he would report them to the Ministry of Military Affairs.
Then Zheng Jiemin said: "Commissioner, in addition to these two things, there is a third thing. The batch of gold that was escorted out of Shanghai by the security battalion directly under the Tax Police Corps has been accounted for!"
"Really?" Chairman Chiang suddenly felt ecstatic when he heard this, "Has that batch of gold been accounted for?"
Chairman Chiang cannot calm down. The Sino-Japanese War has now progressed. With the fall of most of China, especially the fall of Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai, the National Government’s fiscal sources have been greatly exhausted, because more than 60% of the National Government’s fiscal revenue comes from In Jiangsu, Zhejiang and Shanghai, on the one hand, finances and taxes have been exhausted, but on the other hand, various expenditures have increased crazily, especially military expenditures, which have skyrocketed exponentially!
Now all departments and war zones are reaching out to the central government to ask for money. Kong Xiangxi, the worried Minister of Finance, has almost lost all the hair on his head.
Therefore, if this batch of gold is recovered, it will undoubtedly greatly relieve financial pressure!
After all, this is one million taels of gold, worth almost thirty-five million US dollars!
"Well, there is a whereabouts!" Zheng Jiemin nodded and said, "The information fed back from Japan can basically confirm that the security battalion directly under the Tax Police Corps transported this batch of gold out of Shanghai and was attacked by the Japanese army on the way. It did not sink into Dianshan Lake on the spot, but was moved to Wuxi a hundred miles away and sank into Yangcheng Lake!"
"Yangcheng Lake?" Chairman Jiang said, "Why don't you send someone to fish it out quickly?"
Zheng Jiemin smiled bitterly and said: "Commissioner, someone has already salvaged the gold."
"Someone has salvaged the gold?" Chairman Chiang asked angrily, "Who?"
"Xu Rui!" Zheng Jiemin said in a deep voice, "The news fed back from Japan is that almost at the same time that Xu Rui's wolf fangs made a fuss in Shanghai, another team salvaged gold in Yangcheng Lake, and then used it as a gold mine full of machinery and equipment. When the American cargo ship Atlanta passed through Fushan, it quietly took the gold on board."
Chairman Chiang was stunned and said: "You mean, the Americans are also involved?"
"The Americans should be unaware." Zheng Jiemin shook his head and said, "They should also be used by Xu Rui."
Chairman Jiang breathed a sigh of relief, as long as the Americans were not involved, and then said: "In other words, this gold has now fallen into the hands of Xu Rui, and it is in Damei Mountain?"
"Yes!" Zheng Jiemin said, "That should be it."
"Should?" Chairman Chiang said displeasedly, "I don't want to hear such ambiguous answers."
"Absolutely, I'm pretty sure that this gold is in Xu Rui's hands, right in Damei Mountain!" Zheng Jiemin immediately stood up and replied with a serious face, "Moreover, various evidences show that the Spike Troop formed by Xu Rui The captain, Leng Tiefeng, is Liang Gang, the lieutenant colonel commander of the security battalion directly under the Tax Police Corps!"
"Leng Tiefeng is Liang Gang?" Dai Li said, "That makes sense. After the security battalion directly under the Tax Police Corps escorted the gold out of Shanghai, it was ambushed by a heavy Japanese army on the way. Almost all of them died. Afterwards, Fuxing Society rushed to Huxi conducted a secret investigation and found the remains of almost all the soldiers, but Liang Gang was not found!"
"Everyone has a clear lesson." Zheng Jiemin continued, "Although Liang Gang was not dead at that time, he should have been seriously injured. He was then rescued by the remnants of the temporary 79th Division stationed in Wuxi. He has been recuperating in Wuxi until Wuxi fell, otherwise it would be impossible for Liang Gang not to return to Nanjing, let alone report to Commander Huang!"
Dai Li added: "Then Xu Rui came out of nowhere and led the remnants of the temporary 79th Division to break out of Wuxi and fight in central Anhui. Liang Gang should also have followed, and was ideologically suppressed. In the end, not only did he become a He even betrayed the secret he kept about one million taels of gold to Xu Rui and to the ***!"
"Liang Gang deserves to die!" Chairman Jiang said angrily, "This gold must not fall into the hands of Xu Rui, let alone the hands of the Communist Party! This gold belongs to the National Government, I don't care whether Xu Rui Wherever he got the news, he must return the gold unconditionally! Send a telegram to Yan'an immediately, send a telegram to the New Fourth Army, immediately, immediately!"
"Yes!" Dai Li and Zheng Jiemin stood upright, turned around and hurried away.

Dameishan, military division headquarters.
Xu Rui asked Xiao Taohong to cook two side dishes and was treating Wang Husheng to a drink.
Xu Rui poured Wang Husheng a glass of sake with his own hands, raised the glass and said, "Old Wang, we haven't sat together and drank like this in a while, right?"
Wang Husheng raised his glass, touched it with Xu Rui, and said, "Aren't you busy?"
"Yeah, I've been really busy lately." Xu Rui said, "I'm too busy to keep in touch with you."
"Stop it, keep in touch with me." Wang Husheng curled his lips and said, "I knew you were going to pee as soon as you pouted. Tell me, what bad idea are you holding in your heart?"
Xu Rui chuckled and said, "Lao Wang, we are just grasshoppers on a rope, right?"
"That's not the case." Wang Husheng nodded and said, "If there are good things, I will be indispensable, and if there is misfortune, you will not be able to escape."
Xu Bu nodded and continued: "This matter about gold is a bit big. We have to unify the scope in advance. Not only the people from the National Government are coming, but also the head of the military department and people from Yan'an are coming. , you have to pretend to be stupid, in short, this matter has to rot in your stomach, after drinking this drink, just pretend that it didn't happen!"
"You want me to deceive the organization?" Wang Husheng said with wide eyes, "No, this is absolutely not okay!"
"Old Wang, why don't you understand?" Xu Rui asked anxiously, "Actually, the organization doesn't want you to explain it, do you understand? If you really lay it all down and the organization knows the truth, is this batch of gold left behind? , or hand it over to the National Government? Keep it? It’s unreasonable. Hand it over? It’s a pity, right?”
After a pause, Xu Rui added: "Actually, we can't hide this matter at all. Even if we don't tell it, the Japanese will definitely not keep it a secret for us. But knowing is one thing, and making it public is another." , you and I refuse to admit it to death, and the organization is happy to pretend to be ignorant, you know? The so-called meat rots in the pot, and the leaders are all understanding people." (To be continued.)
