After getting off the ship, Wang Zhenyu's mood could not calm down for a long time. In his arms, there were secret letters written by Cai E to Gu Pinzhen, Luo Peijin and Liu Xianshi. Wang Zhenyu thought about it and asked someone to call He Jian over. Naturally, it would be better to hand the secret letter over to the spy chief to deal with it.

Recently, in order to integrate intelligence resources, the Military Intelligence Bureau established the Navy Military Intelligence Department, Liu Junqiang became the chief of the colonel, and at the same time, he established a semi-public Southwest General Main Station in Chengdu. Gong Peng became the chief of the major general. The intelligence work for the Southwest actually began in May last year. This is the benefit of knowing the direction of history.

Wang Zhenyu looked back at the ship. Cai E probably couldn't come back here. He should work harder and fulfill the last wish of this peerless talent.

As soon as he returned to his official residence, Secretary Chen Bulei came to report: "Chairman, the Japanese side proposed to meet you in Wuhan through the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the National Government. You see."

Japanese, haha, these arrogant and arrogant Japanese finally realized their existence. Wang Zhenyu smiled secretly and said, "I remember that the Japanese seem to have never recognized the tariff autonomous agreement of the nine southern provinces, and our National Government, why do you think about it and talk to us now? Haha, let's arrange it, not only to meet, but also to make people feel at ease, such as letting them visit the training of our expeditionary force."

In fact, the Japanese government’s debate on the China issue this time is quite large, mainly due to the intensification of the current domestic political factional struggles in Japan.

Speaking of Japanese politics in this era, we have to mention the famous Taisho era.

In 1912, Emperor Meiji, who was repeatedly mythologically by the Japanese, finally got rid of his hair. Then his son with encephalopathy ascended the throne and became Emperor Taisho. Emperor Taisho is said to have suffered from meningitis and suffered from cerebral thrombosis at the age of 40, and turned into a mental illness. When the disease broke out, the emperor often acted ridiculously before public. For example, when watching a military exercise, he would suddenly run off the reviewing stand and open the soldiers' backpacks and flip them around. Once, when he attended the opening ceremony of the parliament, he had a whim. He smiled foolishly while rolling the speech into a cylinder, put it on his eyes, and shining at the foreign envoys.

In fact, for the dictatorship system, it may not be a bad thing to have a problem with the dictator's brain. Look at the emperors of the Ming Dynasty, they know that some people do business, some are carpenters, and some want to be generals, but they are unwilling to be emperors. So a strange phenomenon occurred in the Ming Dynasty. Even if the emperor did not show up for decades, the entire country could still operate as usual. It was not until the Donglin Party members came out to engage in party struggles to prioritize the power to prostitution.

The Japanese are facing this problem now. Although the Meiji Emperor was great before, the common people did not get half the advantage of his great achievements. The poor are poor, and the rich are even richer. Now, the biggest advantage of this emperor who is said to be in trouble after taking office is that the dictator is no longer in charge, and the political atmosphere becomes democratic overnight. This is the Taisho democracy that has been repeatedly praised by later historians, and is also called the "Taizheng era" by the Japanese people (meaning it is very beautiful and very just).

As far as politics is concerned, the "Kizuyuan era" finally faced collapse in the early days of Taisho. First, the Nishiyuanji Gongwang was forced to step down by the vassal clans and became the last veteran. Later, Katsutaro stepped down due to the Taisho coup (the first constitutional protection movement) and died soon after.

In the Taisho era, it was the golden age of political activity of political parties. In the middle, Hara Kei formed a civilian party cabinet, and in the late period, there were three political parties cabinets of the Protective Constitution. This was also related to Emperor Taisho was seriously ill and appointed Prince Hirohito as the regent. Because the Meiji era began, the elders could nominate the prime minister. Emperor Taisho was seriously ill and Hirohito was immature and respected the elders. The elders were almost certain to nominate the prime minister. The democratic movement and thoughts caused by the party politics during the Taisho era changed the term "Taisho Demorasi (democracy)". It is more worth mentioning that the power of the Changzhou clan gradually declined, and the dominance of Yama Prefecture declined after Prince Hirohito married Queen Kuya Miyaki Ryoko, which was related to the Satsuma clan forces, which were related to the Satsuma clan forces, declined.

However, now the two old guys, Nishitoji Komatsu and Yama Prefecture, are still alive. Under their influence, in recent years, the Japanese cabinet has also taken turns to take turns to serve in the banker. The soldiers and the Constitutional Friendship Association took turns to the post. The current person is Shigeon Okuma from the Constitutional Friendship Association. This is his second time as Prime Minister or Prime Minister. However, his term of office can begin to count down, because the biggest characteristic of the Japanese is that they are always full of endless desires, and the endless wishes of the chaebols and the people cannot be satisfied no matter who becomes the prime minister.

Since you can't satisfy it, then take turns to be a banker, keep throwing your hopes to the people, and work hard to make the chaebols richer. This is a balanced approach. The Japanese are really a genius in politics.

However, the result of such a fierce struggle was that when they suddenly stopped and took a break, they realized that in just a few months, China, which they regarded as their lifeline, was different. The fat pig was actually divided into two parts, and the half in the south seemed to be very good, and it quietly created a tariff autonomy.

In addition to rushing to punish those spies who are unfavorable to spy on intelligence, the most important thing is to come up with new countermeasures. So a new round of quarrels began again, and many old ministers began to miss Emperor Meiji. If His Majesty was still there, it would not be everyone's turn to argue in a mess. He would make a decision directly, and everyone would just execute it. Anyway, that is God's will not be wrong. If it is wrong, it is also the person who executes it ineffective, which desecrates the great Amaterasu.

And now, the man in the palace doesn't seem to worry about these things at all, I'm so damn.

The National Government is a local government in any case, and strictly speaking, the Japanese Empire did not recognize this local government, so there was no consulate in Nanjing. However, this did not hinder their exchanges with the National Government. At least from the civil level, the nominal heads of the National Government, Huang Xing, Sun Yat-sen and others were good friends with Japan, especially Sun Yat-sen and a Japanese wife.

But the Japanese are not fools. They can find out who is the real power of the National Government by just a little try. Therefore, they must come to Wuhan, because Japan has been deployed in the south for more than ten years and was completely destroyed for various reasons. Therefore, Japan urgently needs to figure out a few things:

The first thing is the information on the internal youth army, especially key data such as military combat effectiveness, equipment, and major military generals. This is what the military headquarters repeatedly emphasizes.

The second thing is the personal information about Wang Zhenyu. The more detailed the better, because the Japanese suddenly found that there was no useful information on this South China powerhouse in their hands.

The third thing is to figure out the scale and purpose of the participating troops currently being compiled by the National Government, whether they really go to Europe to die, or whether they are dreaming of military unification like Duan Qirui of Beiyang under the guise of participating in the war, which directly determines the support of the Japanese Empire for the Beiyang and its action plan in North China.

The last one is an additional target. Due to the establishment of the tariff area, Japan's commercial investment and commodity exports in South China suffered a heavy blow. Fortunately, this share is not high in terms of the interests of the entire empire in China, but no matter how small the fly is, it is still meat. From that perspective, this is also a huge harm to the empire. Therefore, the diplomats sent to South China this time also shoulder the mission of communicating with the National Government on this issue, and at the same time, they must obtain data on the economic construction of South China as much as possible.

As the ambassador, Yoshihiko Yoshi, is naturally not suitable for this diplomatic activity. After all, the National Government is just a local government, so the last choice of Japan was a strange four-person group, Shigemitsuke Shigemitsuke, the first counselor of the Embassy in China, and Yoga Matsuoka, the foreign affairs department of the Japanese Governor's Office in Kanto. It is said that this person is a Chinese official, and the deputy military officer of the Japanese Embassy in China, Ryosuke Isotani, is said to be a Chinese official, and he was just directly appointed as the head of the Shanghai Special Service Agency by the Japanese Military Department (known in history as the Mei agency, 23 years earlier than in history. Because the agency was located in a small building called the "Plum Blossom Hall" in the Japanese Expatriate Gathering Area in Hongkou, Shanghai, it was called the "Plum Blossom Hall" in Japan, Kenji Doihara, which is still a Chinese official (it seems that Japan's China Officials are a bit overflowing), and his public identity is a military officer of the Japanese Consulate General in Shanghai.

Their trip to Nanjing obviously did not gain much. The National Government seemed to be very large, with many institutions and personnel, and they did have money to do business. However, when it comes to the economic construction data of South China, even the Minister of the Executive Yuan had to show difficulties. After a deeper exchange, we found out that the economic construction of South China was not all under the control of the National Government. In fact, the Military Affairs Department of the Military Commission and an enterprise named Zhonghu Development Corporation were responsible. The relevant data were all in the hands of these two departments. What the National Government could manage was only some investment.

When Matsuoka Yoyu was surprised to hear the news, he asked back: "Economic construction has been allocated to the Military Commission and the Development Corporation, so what is your National Government responsible for?"

Wang Zhengting, who was in charge of the reception, smiled bitterly: "The current work of the government is to engage in patriotic health campaigns, build a new life, take-out education, medical care, urban construction and transportation construction (it is just a road, and the railway was taken away by the Development Corporation)."
