Chapter 885 Kill First Upon Landing

By the end of 1938, Hong Kong Island was already showing signs of prosperity.

However, this kind of prosperity is pathological.

Under the disguised plunder of John Bull, Hong Kong Island, with its natural harbor coastline and convenient terrain, has developed into a bustling metropolis in the Far East.

Of course, this is the surface situation.

Only by setting foot on Hong Kong Island and experiencing life there firsthand will people be surprised to discover that, behind the surface of prosperity, countless acts of human depravity were lurking.

The colonists were plundering the people's wealth, and the wealthy merchants and nobles were also plundering the people's hard-earned money.

Local gangs exploit the lower classes to the point of unbearable suffering.

As soon as Ye Shaohong and his group disembarked from the passenger ship, they witnessed more than a dozen street fights.

I also witnessed firsthand the scene of ordinary people being hacked to death in the street by gangsters.

They also saw a pitiful girl being dragged and forcibly taken into the stable.

Passersby were not surprised at all when they saw each other.

It's as if all of this has long been a common occurrence.

"Seventh Brother."

"Where are we going? To contact the branch office on Hong Kong Island?"

Chen Gongshu kicked a thief who was trying to steal money from his pocket, and with a hint of displeasure on his face, he asked.

"No need!" "Why contact them? Although Hong Kong is still under John Bull's control."

"But the branch office on Hong Kong Island has a diverse population, and no one can guarantee that there might be some people with ulterior motives among them."

"Let's go straight to Kowloon Walled City!"

That's right.

The Kowloon Walled City is still under the control of the Nationalist government.

In order to manage this enclave, the Nationalist government also deployed a company of soldiers to defend the Kowloon Walled City area.

In a sense, Ye Shaohong believed that these ordinary soldiers were more reliable than the agents of their Military Intelligence Bureau stationed in Hong Kong.

Most importantly, in Kowloon Walled City, they could replenish their weapons and ammunition as quickly as possible.

It can also replenish some of the lost manpower.

As for what the staff at the Hong Kong Island branch would think of him afterward, Ye Shaohong didn't care.

That's how it is.

Ye Shaohong was the head of one of the three offices in the ten departments of the bureau headquarters.

That's definitely the rank of colonel.

Do they care about the thoughts of these people at the bottom?

And so, after a long and winding journey, they finally arrived at the National Government headquarters in Kowloon Walled City.

They met with the garrison commander of the Nationalist government.

The result, however, greatly surprised Ye Shaohong.

They were, after all, the Nationalist government's garrison. The officers in Kowloon Walled City had probably long lost faith and hope in the future.

Taking advantage of the Kowloon Walled City's advantageous location, he actually became a mountain bandit king here.

He took on the role of a gangster boss.

The lowly captain, who was in charge of the company, didn't even bother to serve Ye Shaohong and his group.

They had no intention of coming out to greet them.

They simply assigned a soldier to lead them into the fortress.

The two sides met in a dilapidated courtyard in the walled city.

The company captain had one foot on a stool, a teapot in his other hand, and was looking at the horse report while glancing sideways at Ye Shaohong.

"You... are the people sent by Yamashiro?"

"Go ahead."

"What do you want by coming to my territory?"

Good heavens, in the two years since Ye Shaohong transmigrated and joined the Special Service Department, he has never seen such a scene.

I've never seen anyone dare to look down on him like that.

Ye Shaohong laughed on the spot. "Your territory?"

"Since when did the country's territory become your domain?"

"You have some nerve! I think you're tired of living..."

Before Ye Shaohong could finish speaking, the captain had already thrown down the teapot in his hand and glared angrily at Ye Shaohong.

As he moved, a dozen or so men, armed with various firearms, dressed in rags and displaying no military bearing or discipline, rushed in.

He pointed the gun at Ye Shaohong and his group.

This only further angered Ye Shaohong.

He snorted coldly, and the four men who had come in with him—Chen Gongshu, Wang Tianmu, Li Yunfei, and Li Yunlong—immediately took action.

With their exceptional skills, the four men easily disarmed the men and knocked them all to the ground.

Only then did Ye Shaohong slowly walk up to the captain.

He raised his hand and slapped the captain hard across the body.

"You bastard!"

"Don't just stand there like an idiot, keep yelling and shouting!"

"Why don't you scream?"

"Isn't this your territory? Shout twice more and let me hear it."

"Believe it or not, I'll kill you right now?"

At this moment, Ye Shaohong was genuinely annoyed, even though he had long known that the Republic of China government's army was lax in discipline.

It cannot compare with the armies of later generations.

But he never expected it to be this bad.

It's one thing if they don't take Ye Shaohong seriously, but it's another that the troops stationed in Kowloon Walled City don't recognize him.

To treat national territory as one's own is utterly inhumane.

Kill!

"this……."

"Sir, please calm down. I was wrong."

"I'll apologize to you, and I'm willing to give you some money. Please forgive me this time."

The captain sensed the killing intent and anger emanating from Ye Shaohong. Looking at his unmotivated soldiers, he silently swallowed.

Finally, its arrogance completely vanished, and it lowered its head obediently like a lapdog.

"Hold!"

"How can a coward like you defend our country?"

"I must have been blind to actually think of giving you a chance."

"Now it seems there's no need for that."

Amidst his angry curses, Ye Shaohong raised his arm, and the Browning M1910 pistol was already in his palm.

With the gun barrel pressed against the captain's forehead, Ye Shaohong fired without hesitation.

Just kill this guy who has already lost all morale and fighting spirit.

After eliminating the ringleader, Ye Shaohong immediately took a tough stance and, as a colonel and director of the Military Intelligence Bureau, took over the defense work of the Kowloon Walled City garrison.

Don't tell me yet.

Although these garrison troops have long lost their military bearing and discipline, as well as their morale, they have been mingling on Hong Kong Island for many years and have unique connections with street affairs, local gangs, and local information.

Using their information channels, Ye Shaohong easily located the Japanese spy network planted in Hong Kong and immediately began a surveillance investigation.

three days later.

A message was reported to Ye Shaohong by the Hong Kong Island garrison.

Wang and his entourage have arrived in Hong Kong Island.

They arrived aboard the Italian warship, which was known for its troublemaking. Just over half an hour before the news was reported, Wang Jingwei and his entourage had already checked into the Victoria Hotel.

A new assassination can begin.
