Living in the Republic of China era, from undercover agent to immortality

Meanwhile, at the Japanese command headquarters in Shanghai.

Commander Matsumoto stood upright, staring angrily at the military police captain, Takeda Ichiro.

"Baka! Who sent people to engage them in battle?"

"The Army Command has just received orders not to act rashly."

"Our total number of troops and marines combined does not exceed 50,000."

"What if they suddenly launch an attack? How will we defend ourselves?"

Matsumoto stood there, glaring angrily at Takeda Ichiro, his face contorted with rage.

He had already sent reconnaissance planes to patrol, and the enemy's number of warships and forces were several times that of the Empire's.

They immediately reported the matter to headquarters, and were about to send someone to coordinate when this unexpected incident occurred.

"General, it was my oversight."

"Ono-kun and his men were just launching a probing attack; I didn't expect both squads to be wiped out."

"I am responsible for this."

"The most urgent task at present is to immediately send someone to negotiate and find out their intention to land in Shanghai."

"And their true identities."

"No one, apart from the Allied forces and a few other empires, has such military strength."

"This is very important..."

Takeda Ichiro took a deep breath, then bowed and explained carefully.

What he feared most happened.

If the other side opens fire, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"Idiot, trash!"

"Immediately order the dispatched troops and marines to establish defensive positions."

"Block the remaining three wharves, excluding Zhabei."

"In case the other side opens fire, we must be prepared to retreat."

Matsumoto stood up and cursed twice, then gave orders to his adjutant.

The adjutant nodded immediately and walked toward the communications room.

Matsumoto Naotaka glanced at Military Police Captain Takeda Ichiro.

"Takeda-kun, immediately notify 76 and the Special Higher Police to find out the other party's identity."

"I suspect this is an American troop deployment."

"The second front has just begun, and this has already happened."

"If the identity is verified, we will request support from the Allied forces."

Matsumoto Naotaka said very seriously.

He had no idea where this suddenly appearing elite force came from.

"Hayi!"

"My subordinates will do it immediately."

With that, Military Police Captain Takeda Ichiro turned and walked outside.

.........

On the other side, at the Dragon King Legion's command post.

The commander of the First Army Corps was holding the phone and nodding repeatedly.

"Yes, received!"

"The Dragon King has approved our exercise plan. Let's begin immediately."

"Bombard Zhabei and show our might!"

He looked at the other generals and said very seriously.

The four of them straightened up and nodded in unison.

"Yes."

Upon receiving the order, the six warships opened fire.

"Boom, boom, boom, boom -"

The artillery fire instantly covered the Japanese military police headquarters in Zhabei District.

Immediately afterwards, a large number of tanks and armored vehicles were deployed to begin combat exercises.

It was called a confrontation, but in reality it was just the distribution of troops to various areas of Zhabei District.

The five legions took less than an hour to conquer the entire Zhabei District.

.........

At the embassy in the concession, Consul General Steve was already in a panic.

"Joseph, are you sure that unit opened fire on the Japanese?"

Steve, holding the phone, asked the secret agent outside the concession.

"Absolutely true!"

"Six warships and tens of thousands of cannons opened fire almost simultaneously."

"It took less than an hour to wipe out the garrison in Zhabei."

"Including the Zhabei Military Police and two Class B regiments."

"Matsumoto Naotachi has already sent people to negotiate..."

On the phone, Agent Joseph spoke each word carefully.

These words were like sharp thorns, piercing straight into Steve's heart.

It made him tremble all over and he collapsed onto the chair.

"crunch-"

Just then, the office door opened.

Chief Superintendent Yan Laoliu walked in very respectfully.

"Mr. Steve, we're in trouble."

"That guy who bombed the police station building, let's take over the factories and commercial areas in the rental sector."

"And you're being asked to negotiate in person..."

Chief Superintendent Yan Laoliu lowered his head and said angrily.

Upon hearing this, Steve's body trembled again.

"Mr. Yan, there's no need to talk anymore."

"Agree to their request."

"The situation in Shanghai is about to change drastically."

Steve said, his face very pale.

It seems they don't want to discuss this matter at all.

"what?"

“Mr. Steve, we have a musketeer squad.”

"Why abandon the warships and cannons?"

Yan Laoliu rubbed his ears to make sure he hadn't misheard, then stepped forward and asked.

Could it be that Steve has been bribed?

That's impossible. Steve is the head of the concession; he wouldn't be so brainless.

"Yan Sang, I said I agreed to their request."

"The little guy just attacked the US fleet in the Pacific; we can't get involved in that."

"No matter who they are, agree to their demands."

"As long as the concession is still nominally ours, nothing else matters."

Steve looked at Chief Superintendent Yan Laoliu in front of him and said very seriously.

The world doesn't seem to be what I imagined.

Steve felt like he was about to be driven crazy by this idiot.

"Yes, Mr. Steve."

"However, please go and explain it to me personally."

Upon hearing this, Yan Laoliu immediately wilted.

Although he harbored resentment, it seemed that the situation was no longer in his control.

"Okay, I'll go right away."

"Leave now and escort Prince William away immediately."

"This is something I'm entrusting to you; you must do it well."

Steve thought for a moment, then nodded.

As long as Prince William's safety is guaranteed, everything is negotiable.

"Yes, I'll go right away."

Yan Laoliu nodded and walked out of the room with some disappointment.

Steve's eyes turned cold, and he immediately changed into a suit.

Accompanied by several attendants, he walked downstairs.

........

An hour later, at Li Changfeng's villa.

Guan Yongzhen and Steve signed a cooperation agreement.

After seeing Steve and the others off from the villa, Weng Tongju and the other members of the Green Gang were overjoyed.

"Congratulations, Master Guan, you will now be the spokesperson for the concession."

Guan Yongzhen glanced at Li Changfeng, then clasped his hands in a fist salute to the crowd.

"You're too kind, everyone. We're just doing things according to Mr. Li's wishes."

As she spoke, Guan Yongzhen walked up to Li Changfeng and bowed slightly.

"Mr. Li, the contract has been signed."

"Once the security force is stationed in the concession, the matter will be settled."

"Should we keep Chief Iron and his men here?"

Hearing Guan Yongzhen's question, Li Changfeng nodded slightly.

"Master Guan, you did a great job."

"But Chief Iron will have to stay locked up. I need to wait for someone."

"As soon as that person arrives, I will release him immediately."

Li Changfeng looked at Guan Yongzhen and the others, and said with a slight smile.

Upon hearing Li Changfeng's words, everyone exchanged bewildered glances.

"Mr. Li, who is this person who has such great influence?"

"Even with the intervention of the Chief Superintendent of Police of the Concession and the foreigners, you still didn't release him. Who exactly is this person?"

Guan Yongzhen was slightly taken aback, then took the lead and stepped forward to ask.

"Xu Tian!"

Li Changfeng slowly uttered two words, then walked towards his bedroom.

This Xu Tian was the strategist I had personally appointed for the Dragon King Legion.

Her abilities and contributions are in no way inferior to Guan Yongzhen's.
