Spy Wars: I am the Captain of the Military Police

A week later.

News came from Daoli Prison that Prince Jingren, who was recently visiting and studying in Daoli Prison, was attacked. Ichijo Yusuke led the prison guards and rushed to reinforce, but found that only the window of Prince Jingren's car was smashed.

When Yusuke Ichijo, realizing that they might have fallen into a trap to lure the tiger away from the mountain, led his men back to the prison, they found that a riot had already broken out in the prison.

The prisoner had obtained a pistol from somewhere and was fighting fiercely with the remaining gendarmes.

After suppressing the prisoners, they discovered that more than 150 prisoners had escaped from the prison by some unknown means.

Of course, Yusuke Ichijo knew everything in his mind. If it weren't for the hole he deliberately left and the people outside to pick them up, how could those prisoners have escaped?

Zhou Zhengqing immediately declared martial law throughout the city, and the gendarmerie and security forces blocked every road in and out of the city, and requested the Fourth Division to assist in searching for the escaped prisoners.

But unfortunately, after three days of searching, the criminals seemed to have disappeared without a trace.

Because of this incident, the Japanese Emperor personally sent a telegram to severely reprimand Jingren, saying that he had mobilized the entire prison guards just for a smashed car window, causing the gendarmerie to fall into the enemy's trap and let so many prisoners escape.

He also ordered Jingren not to run around anymore and to stay by Zhou Zhengqing's side.

At the same time, the Emperor also sent a telegram to Zhou Zhengqing, telling him that as long as Jingren's life was not in danger, he would not need too much special care. Since he had chosen to join the army, he had to accept the treatment of an ordinary soldier.

Zhou Zhengqing understood that if it had not involved Jingren, such a small matter as some people running away would not even be worthy of being told to the Emperor.

At the same time, Zhou Zhengqing also knew the emperor's true intention. He heard that his brother's car window was smashed and was afraid that Jingren was in danger.

To put it bluntly, it means asking Zhou Zhengqing to protect Jingren, keep an eye on him, and don't let him run around or get into danger.

From this Zhou Zhengqing can also see that the emperor is still very concerned about his younger brother Jingren. If Zhou Zhengqing hadn't threatened to not help him, he probably wouldn't have let Jingren stay in China.

Zhou Zhengqing's office.

"Captain, this is the list of the 1,100 people who have just arrived." Shunsuke Nakamura handed a roster to Zhou Zhengqing.

"Yo, they are all good guys. They have come all the way to China for the cause of the empire. Nakamura-kun, you are responsible for daily affairs. Please take good care of them." Zhou Zhengqing took the list, flipped through it casually, and handed it back to Nakamura Shunsuke: "Send it to the archives room for filing."

"Hi!" Nakamura Shunsuke said with a smile. As the number of military police increased, he, as the deputy captain, had more people to manage, and he was in a good mood.

"Captain, I heard rumors outside that you are going to be promoted." Shunsuke Nakamura moved closer and whispered.

"Oh? Did you hear any news?" Zhou Zhengqing asked, his heart moved.

"I heard from the new military police that the tough attitude you showed before the Battle of Zhanggufeng has spread all over the country, and the Kwantung Army defeated the Soviet Army some time ago and successfully occupied the Zhanggufeng area.

This makes your previous remarks even more respected by students and young people in the country. Some people even directly say that you are a rising star in the empire and the blooming flower of the gendarmes in the empire. Some schools have even set up student groups specifically to worship you.

And they also heard that because you are engaged to Princess Yuko, the top brass intends to promote your military rank and add more responsibilities to you. Of course, these are just rumors, and I don't know if they are true." Nakamura Shunsuke said with a smile.

Zhou Zhengqing felt disgusted when he heard this. This Japanese always likes to talk about something like the flower, but he really doesn't feel any honor.

I'm not a woman, and calling myself the Flower of the Gendarmerie sounds a bit disgusting.

At the same time, Zhou Zhengqing understood that the current trend in the country was partly due to the Takazaki family joining forces with other nobles to build momentum for himself, so that if he did something out of the ordinary in the future, he would not immediately arouse public disgust.

On the other hand, the top brass of the empire are preparing for their own promotion by exaggerating their own reputations in order to reduce the resistance of public opinion for their future promotion to major general.

"By the way, Captain, here is the battle report sent by the Kwantung Army on the Battle of Zhanggufeng. I specifically asked the Kwantung Army for this detailed report. Would you like to take a look at it?" Nakamura Shunsuke thought of something and took out a telegram from the folder he was holding and was about to hand it to Zhou Zhengqing.

"Oh, read it to me." Zhou Zhengqing was actually not very interested in this battle report. As long as the Zhanggufeng area was defended, nothing else mattered.

"Hi!" Shunsuke Nakamura responded and started reading.

But when he read that the Kwantung Army suffered more than 30,000 casualties and more than 8,000 deaths, Zhou Zhengqing's mouth twitched and he sighed inwardly. These heads should have belonged to him!

If it weren't for that old devil Hideki Tojo coming up with a tactic of attrition, the time it would take to restart my system would have been reduced by half.

There were 30,000 casualties, including 8,000 deaths. If you think about it, you will know that the most deaths must have been those seriously ill soldiers. Alas, what a loss... But fortunately, at least the Zhanggufeng area was saved!

After Nakamura Shunsuke finished reading the battle report, he saw Zhou Zhengqing's expression kept changing, so he didn't dare to disturb him.

After waiting for a long time, seeing Zhou Zhengqing come back to his senses, he stepped forward and asked a new question: "Captain, I'm a little confused. Harbin is not that big, so why do the Chinese keep sending military police to us?

Now we have two battalions of military police here, but I heard that the country is still recruiting people from various schools, and it is said that they are also going to send them to us! This is a bit too strange." Nakamura Shunsuke scratched his head and said.

Zhou Zhengqing looked at Nakamura Shunsuke meaningfully and smiled, then said, "Didn't you just say that I was going to be promoted? Now that I've been promoted, how can I not add more people to my team?"

When Nakamura Shunsuke heard this, he was surprised and said, "Captain, that means the rumors are true? You are really going to be promoted! That's great!"

Zhou Zhengqing looked at Shunsuke Nakamura's excitement and felt a little strange. He looked like he was going to be promoted. He was probably a little too happy.

Perhaps seeing Zhou Zhengqing's confusion, Nakamura Shunsuke said with a wry smile: "Captain, you are a major, and so am I, but I am a little scared to be a major, because there are always soldiers who discuss my rank in private."

"Hahaha, Nakamura-kun is worried about this. I've told you a long time ago that we are partners at work and friends in private. What's wrong with having the same rank? You are the vice captain anyway, so it's nothing for you to be a major."

As they were talking, Lingzi walked in from outside, holding Huizi, who was just learning to walk, in her hand.

The little girl was seen babbling and struggling on her short legs, staggering as she was led by Lingzi, and she rushed straight towards Zhou Zhengqing.

Seeing this, Zhou Zhengqing quickly picked up Huizi, fearing that he would fall.

Seeing this, Nakamura Shunsuke bowed and said, "Captain, if you have nothing else to do, I'll get busy first."
