Since the Wang brothers were incorporated by Japanese intelligence agencies, their brothers have been undergoing Japanese intelligence training during this period, because the two brothers were young and had a grudge against overseas Chinese to raid their families, which was of innate importance to cultivate them. Moreover, their brothers were born as local gentry, very familiar with the social situation, humanities and geography of Shandong, and have certain cultural knowledge. It can be said that these conditions are very important for an intelligence officer, so the Japanese side also intends to train their brothers into the backbone of Shandong intelligence.

Since the burden of family feud, the Wang brothers have seen the hope of revenge for the first time, so they worked very hard to learn various knowledge and of course Japanese. However, the two brothers have different characteristics. Wang Kexing has practiced martial arts since childhood and has experienced fighting and murder, so the Japanese side intends to train him to assassinate; Wang Kefu has a high culture and is eloquent, and the direction of training is to spy on intelligence collection. Japan is very planning, and when the conditions are suitable, it can try to push Wang Kefu into the officialdom of Shandong or the Qing court to develop.

After more than half a year of study, the two brothers' knowledge, knowledge, ability and knowledge have made great progress. In addition, the past two years of hard work have made the two more mature, and they are no longer rural people who have never seen the world.

Of course, the Wang brothers also knew that although their purpose was to use the power of the Japanese to avenge their whole family, they were essentially helping the Japanese to deal with China. To put it bluntly, they were traitors. It cannot be said that this had no effect on the Wang brothers. But firstly, the Chinese people's national concepts for the country and nation are still very weak. Whether it was the two Opium Wars, the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895, and the Eight-Nation Alliance's war invasion of China, there were a large number of Chinese people who helped the invading soldiers to do things; secondly, the family feud overwhelmed the national justice in the hearts of the two brothers, because both brothers knew that it would be impossible to take revenge without the help of Japan. Therefore, the two of them planned to wash their hands and stop helping the Japanese after avenging their whole family. Thinking of this, the two could feel at ease.

During this period, Japan's intelligence agencies in Shandong have been developing very carefully because the East China government has strict control over society and is far from comparable to the Qing court. Now Japan's intelligence agencies in Shandong have completely separated from business institutions and have begun to develop alone, and have established strongholds in major cities in Shandong. However, Japan's intelligence work now mainly collects various intelligence materials through open channels and analyzes them to judge the direction of the East China government.

Although the East China government has much stronger control than the Qing court, the transmission and disclosure of information are much stronger than that of the Qing court. Major decisions, activities, or major social events of the government will be published in newspapers as soon as possible. This is also a characteristic of modern society and has brought certain convenience to intelligence work, that is, a large amount of information can be collected from public channels. Of course, Japanese intelligence agencies can only do this. However, information does not mean intelligence, and various information must be analyzed to become accurate intelligence.

In fact, Japan does not want to develop further, but the tricks used to deal with the Qing court have almost no effect on the East China government. For example, two months ago, Japan planned to transport a batch of guns and weapons to Shandong intelligence agencies in the name of cargo, in case of use when needed. However, cargo ships must be tested at customs.

If you were in the court, of course it would be easier. If you spend a lot of money to handle some things, you can pass the customs smoothly. The inspections are just a formality. In the customs of the East China government, this trick is not only useless, but also attracted the alertness of customs personnel, because it is said that if you have nothing to do, you will be either traitor or steal. So the inspection is more strict and careful. As a result, more than 300 guns, more than 10,000 bullets, and more than 200 kilograms were found.

These weapons and ammunition were naturally confiscated, and the cargo ship transported was seized by the East China government. All personnel on the cargo ship were arrested for interrogation, and the Japanese trading company connecting the goods was also seized. At the same time, the East China government also raised severe protests against the Japanese government. In the face of facts, the Japanese government could only apologize to the East China government, and put the blame on individuals, and guaranteed that similar things would not happen again. In the end, the cargo ship and the trading company were confiscated by the East China government, and a total of 27 Japanese were sentenced to prison by the East China government.

After this incident, Japan gave up the plan to transport weapons to Shandong intelligence agencies in large quantities, and instead changed to a plan to make up the whole to pieces, and accumulated a lot. Only a very small number were transported at a time, no more than 10 guns, no more than 10 bullets, and all the guns were disassembled into accessories, and they were assembled after they were transported. After all, the detection methods in this era were limited, and it was indeed difficult to detect a small number of sporadic accessories, so it was accumulated slowly. Now, the Shandong intelligence agencies in Japan have also accumulated more than 30 pistols, more than 20 rifles, and more than 1,000 bullets. It is not enough to be strong. However, the East China government prohibits the civilian from holding guns, so although the guns have been obtained, training has become another problem.

The Wang brothers wanted to avenge the whole family, so they were learning various knowledge while asking for opportunities everywhere. Just a few days ago, by chance, the two learned that a bandit force was asking for food and food from Beiya Village, southwest of Jinan City. The Wang family was originally a bandit. When they were young, they had a bandit career. Because they were Wang Kexing and participated in several battles between bandits, they vaguely felt that something was wrong, so they used the resources of Japanese intelligence agencies to inquire and figured out the matter roughly. This bandit belonged to the Lin family in Taishan.

Of course, the two knew the status of the Lin family in Shandong Green Forest, and they also knew that overseas Chinese would never compromise with bandits. In addition, Jinan was mobilizing the army, so there would definitely be a fierce battle between the two sides. Although they were of course supporting the Lin family, they also understood that the Lin family was definitely not a match for overseas Chinese, so they wanted to give the Lin family some support. Wang Kefu thought further and believed that the power of bandits could be used to deal with overseas Chinese. The Lin family was very influential in Shandong Green Forest, so it could be provided with Japanese intelligence agencies secretly with funds, weapons support, intelligence, and operation guidance. The Lin family came forward to integrate Shandong Green Forest to deal with overseas Chinese.

The senior executives of the Shandong intelligence agency in Japan immediately carefully evaluated the two of them, believing that the Shandong Green Forest forces are too scattered and it is difficult to effectively integrate without enough time. Moreover, even if the Shandong Green Forest forces are integrated, it is impossible to subvert the rule of the East China government. Therefore, Japanese intelligence agencies should not invest too much in it to avoid being implicated and exposed.

However, the Green Forest is an armed force with considerable foundation among the people. If all oppose the East China government and are enemies of the East China government, it can also cause considerable trouble to the rule of the East China government. It consumes the administrative resources of overseas Chinese and thus delays the development speed of overseas Chinese. This result is of course beneficial to Japan.

However, there should not be too much support for Shandong Green Forest forces, and it should not expose Japan's Shandong intelligence agencies, because Shandong Green Forest forces will basically fail, so it is not advisable to invest too much. In this way, even if Shandong Green Forest fails, there will be no losses to Japan, and the Japanese government can completely escape and will not be affected.

In the end, the senior management of the Shandong intelligence agency in Japan made several decisions. First, the Wang brothers came forward to contact Shandong Green Forest forces and cooperated with Shandong Green Forest forces in the name of avenging family, but the Japanese Shandong intelligence agency must not be exposed. Second, the funds provided to Shandong Green Forest forces are 50,000 taels of silver, all handled by the Wang brothers; Third, the intelligence and information support can be provided to Shandong Green Forest forces, but no weapons can be provided. However, through Japan's relations, they can help Shandong Green Forest forces purchase weapons through other channels; Fourth, the action plan is adjusted based on the actions of Shandong Green Forest forces.

In other words, Japan's Shandong intelligence agencies only planned to provide limited support to Shandong Green Forest forces at the beginning, but if the actions of Shandong Green Forest forces can have a greater impact on the East China government, then they can increase their support to Shandong Green Forest forces.

Regarding the joint action of Shandong Green Forest forces against the East China government, the Japanese Shandong intelligence agency believes that head-on confrontation is useless. Shandong Green Forest forces must be familiar with the terrain and environment and have a deep foundation. Therefore, Shandong Green Forest should not carry out large-scale operations, but should be divided into pieces and operate in a team of 30-50 people. The target should not be urban governments, but private villages. In areas where the People's Army is weakly controlled, try to take as much force as possible. The more people the better, try to create a terrifying atmosphere, and point the finger directly at overseas Chinese, that is, to create a kind of "the overseas Chinese forced the bandits into this way". In this way, it can not only cause instability in the Shandong region, but also attack the prestige of overseas Chinese in the Shandong people, and it is best to make Shandong people resentful towards overseas Chinese.

According to the investigation by the Shandong intelligence agency in Japan during this period, the implementation of land reform has benefited the general public, and the Chinese outside Shanghai are friendly to the people, honest and efficient administrative style, which has enabled overseas Chinese to establish a very high prestige among the people in Shandong. It can be said that the credibility of the East China government in Shandong is far higher than that of the Qing court. All they lack is the deposit of time. After all, the Qing court has been ruled for more than 250 years, and the disappearance of its influence cannot be completed overnight. But if it takes another 1 or 2 years, it is hard to say. Therefore, Japan should try its best to delay this development trend, and it is best to put Shandong in a long-term civil strife. This is the most favorable situation for Japan.

Although Lin Shenwang is smart, he basically knows nothing about this kind of government-level strategy. Wang Kefu's suggestions are indeed very useful and realistic in his opinion. With his prestige in Shandong Green Forest, he can still start a Green Forest Conference. But whether he can convince other Green Forest forces to fight against overseas Chinese can only be seen by Wang Kefu. However, through the conversation just now, he still has some confidence in Wang Kefu. So Lin Shenwang said, "Okay, Brother Wang, first have a few days of rest in our village, and let us father and son discuss it."

Wang Kefu also nodded and said, "It's good."
