Spy Wars: I am the Captain of the Military Police

"I don't think that's necessary. General, please look outside." At this moment, Nanzō Yunko suddenly pointed outside the window and said.

Hearing this, Zhou Zhengqing stood up in confusion and walked to the window with Nakamura Shunsuke.

Outside the window, I saw chaos on the street. A Type 2 tank was slowly approaching, and the military police following behind it were holding weapons and shouting menacingly at a group of people who were tied up in a chain.

Zhou Zhengqing slapped his forehead...

. . . . . . . . . . . . . .

"This is too much, General! The Military Police Command has really gone too far this time. We must report them to the country!"

Inside the temporary headquarters of the garrison army, Kawabe Masazo excitedly spoke to Kazuki Seiji who was sitting behind his desk.

His eyes were wide open, his face flushed, he was extremely excited, and his chest heaved violently.

Hashimoto Gun, who was standing with Kawabe Masamitsu, also frowned and opened his mouth several times to say something, but looking at the gloomy face of Kazuki Seiji, he finally held back.

He knew Kazuki Seiji's character very well, and speaking rashly at this time would only add fuel to the fire.

"Accusing the military police? Who are you accusing?" Katsuki Seiji slowly raised his head and looked at Kawabe Masamitsu with a serious and solemn expression, with a hint of sarcasm in his eyes.

"To the military, to the cabinet, to His Majesty the Emperor, we can't keep swallowing our anger!" Hebian Zhengsan's face flushed red, his facial muscles trembled, veins popped on his forehead, his hands clenched into fists, his emotions almost on the verge of getting out of control.

"Oh, to the military? But the military police are not under the jurisdiction of the military now, and the military's words are nothing to Takuto Takazaki.

Cabinet? Haha, do you expect a bunch of office workers to cause trouble for the younger generation of the Takazaki family?

"Your Majesty the Emperor! Hahaha, he's someone's father-in-law, and you're going to tell tales on His Majesty's son-in-law? Is your head filled with rice balls?" Kazuki Seiji said, and he even laughed out loud.

His eyes were full of disdain and ridicule, and his tone was very sharp.

"Then no one can control him! You are a lieutenant general, and he is only a major general! According to his rank, he should listen to you!" Hebian Zhengsan's voice had become much weaker, and he spoke with some lack of confidence.

"There must be someone who can take charge, whether it's the military, the cabinet, or His Majesty the Emperor. As long as there is a legitimate reason, we can certainly accuse the military police of misconduct, but do you have any evidence?" Katsuki Seiji asked slowly.

"How can there be no reason! Didn't Takeda Hirokazu just say that the more than one hundred bodies of imperial soldiers at the train station can't prove something?" Kawabe Masazo said anxiously, trying to find strong support for himself.

Bang! Xiangyue Qingsi slammed the table and stood up: "Don't mention that bastard Takeda Koichi to me! He still doesn't know what happened. He is a waste!

He claims to be an intelligence expert, but he's completely useless. I listened to his instigation, and now I'm passive everywhere." The voice echoed in the room, shaking the windows slightly.

When Kazuki Seiji got angry, Kawabe Masazo became obedient, standing there muttering and not daring to speak, like a child who had made a mistake.

"General, Takeda Hiroichi reported that there were no survivors at the scene, and the military police took away all the living and wounded. He could only learn from the foreign reporters who had not left yet that it was the military police who suddenly attacked Iga Seiya and others, but the specific reason is unknown." Hashimoto Gun pursed his lips, stepped forward cautiously and said, with a hint of worry in his eyes.

"Then you call the Military Police Headquarters. What did they say?" Kazuki Seiji frowned and looked at Hashimoto Gun, with a hint of questioning in his eyes.

"I called Shunsuke Nakamura, but from his tone, it seemed that he didn't know exactly what happened. In my opinion, the military police headquarters should not be aware of what happened at the train station. This may be an emergency." Hashimoto Gun answered with a bow, leaning forward slightly, not daring to slack off.

Xiangyue Qingji sat back in his chair and smiled bitterly: "Haha, it's just that more than a hundred soldiers died. In my opinion, this is insignificant. The important thing is that the military police always target us. I don't even know how I offended them!

"Now the Military Police Headquarters has sent us an official letter, saying that they will take over the public security issues in Tianjin City and ask our garrison troops to cooperate. I am really worried." After saying this, Xiangyue Qingji couldn't help rubbing his temples, as if he was worried about the current situation.

Seeing this, Hashimoto Gun hesitated for a moment, then whispered, "General, have we forgotten something?"

"Huh? What's the matter?" Kazuki Seiji put down his hand and asked in confusion.

"That's right. Didn't General Takazaki ask us to prepare the compensation and send it to him within three days? Have you forgotten?" Hashimoto Gun said carefully.

"He said three days, so he said three days. Look at what I've become..." Having said that, Kazuki Seiji suddenly stopped talking, and then asked in an incredulous tone: "What do you think, is it because we didn't send the compensation as required, so the military police wanted to teach us a lesson and raided our soldiers?" Kazuki Seiji became more and more confident as he spoke, as if things were just as he imagined.

"That shouldn't be the case. If that's the only reason, they would probably question us first and then teach us a lesson." Hashimoto Gun said uncertainly.

"No, it's very likely. After all, Takuto Takazaki is still a young man, full of youthful vigor, and he comes from a wealthy family. People like him do things without any rules." Kazuki Seiji shook his head, with a hint of resentment in his eyes.

"Then General, what should we do?" asked Hashimoto Gun. In fact, what he wanted to ask was whether compensation would be given and how it would be given, but he didn't dare to ask directly.

Recently, Seiji Katsuki and Koichi Takeda have been getting very close, and it seems like they are planning something. Even he, the chief of staff, is not clear about the inside story.

Kazuki Seiji frowned and thought for a moment, then looked at Hashimoto Gun and said, "I recently contacted Naosaburo Okabe of the Army University Research Department. He told me that the top brass is keeping silent about the conflict between us and the military police, and they're clearly letting us resolve it on our own.

The bigwigs in the military didn't want to get involved in this mess and tacitly agreed that the military police's bombing of Haiguang Temple was an act of retaliation. Even the accusations against the navy disappeared.

From this, it can be seen that it is still not well-considered to confront the Military Police Headquarters head-on. So, Hashimoto-kun, how much money do we have left?"

Qian Benqun secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but when he heard Xiangyue Qingsi asking about money, he suddenly became worried: "Your Excellency General, we have no money, we really have no money!"

"How can we have no money? There are so many Chinese businessmen in Tianjin. Didn't I ask you to raise military funds?" asked Kazuki Seiji dissatisfiedly.

Calling plundering and looting military funds sounded so refreshing, truly worthy of a commander! Hashimoto Gun couldn't help but grumble inwardly, but he quickly explained, "General, we did raise some military funds, but it was barely enough to pay the soldiers this month's allowance. We simply can't squeeze out more."

"Then go and raise some money. It's a waste for the Chinese to take the money anyway! Have the soldiers search every house."

Hashimoto Gun was even more helpless, and said with a bitter face: "General, we really can't gather much. Those wealthy Chinese people have hidden in the concessions. Knowing that we are collecting military funds, none of them leave the concessions. There is nothing we can do!"

Xiangyue Qingsi took a deep breath and twisted his aching neck. He was about to say that if he couldn't get the money from the merchants, he could ask ordinary people for donations, but suddenly he thought of something and said with a bright look in his eyes, "Tianjin Public Security Association, let them raise the money!"

Hashimoto Gun's eyes widened: "This is not good, after all, they have defected to the Empire!"

"Hmph, the empire gives them shelter, gives them high positions, and pays a corresponding price. Is there any problem with that?" Xiangyue Qingji sneered, his face full of unquestionable look.

"Well, okay then." Hashimoto Gun smiled bitterly and observed two seconds of silence for the Tianjin Public Security Association.

At this time, Hebian Zhengsan suddenly said: "General, there is no need to go to such trouble. Why embezzle military funds? Those are the soldiers' life-saving wages."

"Then what good ideas do you have?" asked Kazuki Seiji. Hashimoto Gun also looked over with a hint of expectation in his eyes.

"It's very simple. We don't have money, but we can use assets as collateral. Aren't all those Chinese businessmen hiding in the concessions? Then why don't we accept all their properties in the Chinese concessions?

Wouldn't it be better to give a portion of it to the Military Police Headquarters when the time comes?" When Hebian Zhengsan talked about the Chinese businessmen, his tone was sinister and a ferocious smile was forced on his face.

"Yo, this is a good idea!" Katsuki Seiji clapped his hands. He had always thought of paying compensation directly, and Kawabe Masazo had reminded him.

Suddenly, something moved in Katsuki Seiji's heart.

If assets can be mortgaged, then other things can be mortgaged as well! The garrison troops still have a lot of weapons and equipment in stock. If they take them out, they may have unexpected effects.

Hasn't Hirokazu Takeda always wanted to find evidence of the military police reselling weapons and equipment? Is there any way to do this?

Once it is proven that the military police are reselling weapons and then the Kwantung Army is dragged into it, Kenkichi Ueda will have to make concessions.

Moreover, given the arrogant character of Takuto Takazaki and his subordinates, they might actually agree to let him pay off the debt with weapons and equipment. Wouldn't that be handing the handle to him?

At that time, I will make it clear to the Takazaki family that I will not expose this matter, and maybe I can even get their support.

By then, maybe I will really get to sit in the position of the North China Expeditionary Force Command.

However, Katsuki Seiji was aware of the risks and variables involved, but he was blinded by his desire for power.

After all, he was simply blinded by power. Otherwise, for someone who could become a lieutenant general, it would be impossible for him not to know certain consequences.

This is also related to the Japanese character. They like to gamble! The bet is that they can win. As for failure, that is a matter of after failure.
