Crossing the spy war, my code name is God of Wealth

Chapter 955: It's Just Another Power Struggle

"Mr. Fujiwara, you want me to go to Southeast Asia?"

Commander Ishihara was stunned for a moment, then turned around and started laughing.

"Mr. Fujiwara, I know your abilities and your concerns, but I don't think you can do it."

"The situation in Southeast Asia is now mostly under our control."

"It can be said that now it is a huge achievement. If I hadn't done anything, there would be absolutely no way I would have had this opportunity."

"Besides, even if you are willing, Tojo won't agree."

"All the generals of the 400,000-strong Southern Army that is being formed are young and strong, and we old guys are not considered."

"Although I'm not very interested in politics, I can tell from Tojo's way of doing things that he wants to support the young and strong to replace us old guys."

"How could he let me interfere in Southeast Asia's military affairs at this time?"

Fujiwara Nao took a sip of sake from the table and said, "Yes, if the war goes smoothly, Ishihara-kun can spend the rest of his life at home admiring flowers and drinking without any worries."

"However, if the war in the Pacific takes a turn for the worse, the Army Department will need an experienced veteran to stabilize the situation."

Commander Ishihara was slightly stunned, as if he understood something, and looked at Fujiwara Nao and said, "Mr. Fujiwara, have you received any information about the American counterattack?"

Fujiwara Nao hesitated for a moment and said, "It's like this. Chen Yang received a piece of intelligence about Boeing."

"Boeing?" Commander Ishihara was a little confused.

Fujiwara Nao said slowly: "I don't know where the specific information came from, but he told me that Boeing is currently developing a bomber known as the Flying Fortress."

"Not only has it been successfully developed, but it will also be put into use soon."

"Mr. Ishihara, if his intelligence is correct, the target of these bombers is likely to be the Pacific battlefield."

"If the Pacific theater is attacked, we will naturally have a chance."

Commander Ishihara was surprised and said, "Since you have the information, why don't you report it to Tojo immediately so that he can take precautions early."

Fujiwara Nao laughed. Commander Ishihara really didn't understand politics.

"Ishihara-kun, you should know that some things must happen. Otherwise, we will have no bargaining chips with others."

"The same goes for your transfer to the Southeast Asian battlefield."

“That position has always been there, but you need the right reason to sit in it.”

Commander Ishihara then realized that Fujiwara Nao was clearly trying to curb Tojo's power. What was going on? Was it that His Majesty did not want to see Tojo's power grow too strong? Or was it another power struggle between the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs?

Commander Ishihara frowned, took a big sip of wine and muttered, "Politics is really a disgusting thing."

Shanghai, Xilin South Road, Chen Mansion.

After a long gasp, Chen Yang propped up his head with a pillow and lit a cigarette.

Next to her, Shizuka Fujiwara got up, wrapped herself in a towel, and walked into the bathroom.

There was a sound of running water in the bathroom. After washing up, Shizuka Fujiwara wrapped herself in a towel and got back into bed. She lay half of her body on Chen Yang's chest and said slowly, "Father sent a telegram. He has convinced Commander Ishihara."

Chen Yang stroked Fujiwara Shizuka's hair and said, "This is not surprising. Commander Ishihara is not the kind of person who is willing to accept old age."

"If there was a chance to go back to the battlefield, why would he give it up?"

Fujiwara Shizuka said slowly: "My father doesn't quite understand why you would speak for Commander Ishihara."

"He doesn't seem to have a very close relationship with you."

Chen Yang said in a gentle voice: "It was Mr. Fujiwara who was asked by His Excellency Terauchi to find me."

"In fact, Mr. Fujiwara should know that when Lord Tojo came to power, Lord Terauchi, General Doihara and Commander Ishihara formed a small group."

"Here also is Lord Sakagaki and Lord Nishio who is currently in the northeast."

"After all, it's still a game between internal and external forces."

"Mr. Terauchi's performance on the Chinese battlefield can be said to be mediocre. In terms of achievements, he is not as good as Mr. Nishio before him."

"If Commander Ishihara can open up the situation in Southeast Asia, they will have capital."

Fujiwara Shizuka didn't seem to know much about politics. Chen Yang said a lot, but she didn't quite understand what he said.

"By the way, my father wants to know what this plane you're talking about is like?"

"When did you know about Boeing?"

Chen Yang touched his nose, not knowing whether he should say it.

The news about Boeing was brought back from the United States by people from Huafu Fund.

After the bombing of Pearl Harbor, the Japanese Navy circled the coastline and destroyed some industrial facilities, including Boeing, which was also hit by bombers.

After entering the United States, Huafu Fund approached Boeing and stated that it could provide a loan, and the other party only needed to provide some collateral.

For this purpose, a manager is stationed at Boeing headquarters.

A few days ago, Boeing received an order for sixteen B25 bombers.

When Chen Yang received this news, he knew that General Doolittle was preparing to bomb Tokyo.

However, he did not say that the destination of these bombers was Tokyo, but only that their target would be the Pacific battlefield.

The Japanese also believed in Chen Yang's judgment. After all, bombers need airports and runways to take off and land.

They also could not have imagined that General Doolittle would let these planes take off from the USS Hornet, and had no intention of letting them return to the aircraft carrier to land.

Instead, the landing target was set at the airport in Quzhou, China.

"This information came from Europe, and not many people know about it right now." Chen Yang responded casually.

"By the way, Hailey has been gone for so many days, do you want to move in?"

Fujiwara Shizuka frowned: "Move in?"

Chen Yang said: "Yes, after Aunt Lan was taken away by Qingqi Jun, I have not had time to find a housekeeper."

"There are so many things to do at home, so we still need to find a hostess to take charge."

Fujiwara Shizuka curled her lips and said, "You are planning to make me revolve around you like other women every day."

"Help you arrange things at home so you can go to work with peace of mind?"

Chen Yang smiled and said, "It's not a lot of work, just some cleaning work, and you just need to give the order and the servants will do it."

Fujiwara Shizuka shook her head and said, "These things are too troublesome. I can't do them."

"I feel fine like this, I just need to take a shower..."
