Kenji Doihara seems to have quickly adjusted from previous failures.

He never mentions his recent failure to anyone he sees. He smiles, greets everyone cordially, and asks about their recent living conditions with concern.

Failure is not terrible.

If you learn from failure, making changes is the most important thing.

Kenji Doihara has always thought so.

However, there was also a problem that gave him a headache.

Tian Qi!

The talent shown by this Chinese has even conquered the always harsh Yanagawa Yasumi.

Yanagawa Yasunjun wholeheartedly wants to treat Tian Qi as his assistant.

But Tian Qi's attitude was very ambiguous, neither agreeing nor rejecting directly.

Doihara Kenji understood that Tian Qi still had doubts in his heart and did not want to do anything for Yanagawa Yasunumi.

Hahara Koichi also kept mentioning, intentionally or unintentionally, that he wanted to transfer Tian Qi to his subordinates.

Doihara Kenji is also well aware of Hahara Koichi's ability, and he wants to make full use of this subordinate.

This also caused an embarrassment.

Doihara Kenji has yet to make a decision, and Tian Qi now has nothing to do.

It goes against Kenji Doihara's point of view to waste a talent there.

On September 6, 1938, Doihara Kenji held the famous "September 6 Meeting" in his "Shigekodo".

According to the Japanese seniority records, this meeting was of decisive significance for Japan's intelligence work in Shanghai.

Some people even describe it this way:

The convening of the September 6 meeting brought the Japanese Shanghai Intelligence Organization into a new era.

At this meeting, all the main leaders of the Japanese intelligence agencies in Shanghai were present, including the famous traitors Miao Chengfang and Tian Qi.

"Everyone knows that our work in the previous period was very unsatisfactory." At the beginning, Kenji Doihara did not shy away from this: "It can even be said that we were severely humiliated. All the responsibility will be mine alone.

Come and bear it.”

"Your Excellency, the agency director, you should not be responsible for it alone." Yanagawa Yasunjun immediately said: "All of us have the responsibility!"

"No, you have done your best, it was my leadership that failed."

"The country is actually the one with the biggest responsibility." Koichi Hahara pointed out unceremoniously: "Originally, under the leadership of the agency director, we launched a comprehensive counterattack and had already taken advantage in some areas. However, an inexplicable international visiting delegation...

But the enemy found a way to make all our previous efforts in vain."

Everything he said was true.

"Please don't criticize the country indiscriminately, Lieutenant Colonel Hahara!" Kenji Doihara scolded, but then he calmed down: "No matter who was responsible, this matter has passed. The most urgent thing we need to do now is

How to restore the vitality of an organization. Everyone here knows the importance of Shanghai better than I do. I don’t need to repeat it again.

I have talked with Mr. Yanagawa. In Shanghai, it is absolutely impossible to rely solely on our own strength. The Chinese, especially our Chinese friends, will play an increasingly important role in the future and become more and more important people that we can rely on.

arms. This has been fully proved in North China before and in Nanjing later."

In the past, the Japanese secret service did use traitors in North China, but it never officially recognized their importance to Japan.

Using traitors and guarding against traitors has always been their basic strategy.

At the September 6 meeting, the status of traitors was officially recognized!

"This time, our friend Tian Qi played a vital role in finding the Roligani couple. He used his wisdom to prove his loyalty to the Japanese Empire and his understanding of the city of Shanghai.

." Doihara Kenji continued: "Of course, the same is true for Mr. Miao.

Frankly speaking, no matter who can make Mr. Tian and Mr. Miao become his assistants, it will be of great help to the future. Some people have eagerly approached me many times and asked to transfer them to me. But I am very

It’s difficult, how can we make good use of such an important person and how can we make them feel more comfortable?”

Finally, we come to the topic, which is also the issue that Yanagawa Yasunjun and Hahara Koichi are most concerned about.

On the contrary, Tian Qi and Miao Chengfang looked as if nothing had happened, as if what Kenji Doihara was saying had nothing to do with them at all!

"I have decided!" Kenji Doihara suddenly raised his voice slightly: "In addition to the Special Work Department, a new organization will be established, the Shanghai Intelligence Headquarters, with Chinese as the main officials!"

Shanghai Intelligence Headquarters!

Kenji Doihara thought about this name for a long time.

He thought about the names "Shanghai Public Security Office" and "Shanghai Intelligence Cooperation Department", but finally settled on removing the word "cooperation" and directly named it "Shanghai Intelligence Headquarters"!

Although it is just a two-character change, it can give the Chinese people a sense of being trusted and in control, and they can better serve the Empire of Japan.

Naming is also an art!

"This department will operate independently!" Kenji Doihara is also very satisfied with his approach: "It will report to me individually and carry out comprehensive cooperation with all departments of the Special Committee on China."

Yanagawa Yasunjun and Hahara Koichi understood Doihara Kenji's intentions and had to admire the intelligence of the agency chief.

There is no need to compete for Tian Qi or Miao Chengfang, they will all be in this organization, and whether it is the department in charge of Yanagawa Yasunjun or Hahara Koichi, they will cooperate with the intelligence headquarters.

Be impartial and avoid possible disputes.

Kenji Doihara said with a smile: "In view of the outstanding contributions made by Mr. Tian and Mr. Miao in Shanghai in the previous period, I nominate the candidate for the director of the Intelligence Headquarters and select from them."

Before the Japanese could speak, Miao Chengfang said calmly: "Thank you, Mr. Agency Chief, for your trust in us. The establishment of the Intelligence Headquarters has given us people a home and can better serve the Empire of Japan."

Efficacy. I have been a latent spy of the Japanese Empire for a long time, and I was directly led by General Fujiwara Noikawa. When the intelligence headquarters was established this time, I volunteered myself, and I think it is the most suitable for me to serve as the director."

Immediately, he gave a special explanation: "As we all know, whoever becomes this director will become a priority target of military commanders and a public enemy of the Chinese people, but I will not be afraid of this."

This is absolutely true. The director of the Intelligence Headquarters will definitely be on the must-kill list of the military commander.

At this moment, Tian Qi quickly understood the teacher's intention. He sneered: "Mr. Miao is right. The director of the Intelligence Headquarters sounds very glamorous, but it is a high-risk profession. Mr. Miao, you

He taught me a lot and was also my guide in serving the Empire of Japan, so this hard job should be left to me."

Fight for power!

The Japanese say they rely on the Chinese, but in fact they will never really rest assured. Only when the Chinese themselves start a fierce struggle and compete for power will the Japanese feel that they are easier to control!

Therefore, Tian Qi must compete with Miao Chengfang for this position!

There was still no script, but Tian Qi and Miao Chengfang had a spiritual connection. From the moment Miao Chengfang started fighting for power, Tian Qi knew that his teacher would have to cooperate with him to act out the play.

But now, the decision-making power is in the hands of Kenji Doihara.

Doihara Kenji looked at Miao Chengfang and then at Tian Qi: "I am very touched by the loyalty of the two people to the Empire of Japan. My idea is this, Mr. Miao will serve as the director of the intelligence headquarters and be responsible for the organization

Fully operational. Mr. Tian will serve as deputy director of the Intelligence Headquarters. His specific responsibilities are to direct intelligence work against the enemy!"

This is another case of differentiation and balance.

Miao Chengfang is the director, but he is only responsible for the daily operations of the organization. The core intelligence work is left to Tian Qi.

The weapons and ammunition of the Intelligence Headquarters are all the responsibility of the Japanese side, and the monthly activity fund is 250,000 yen.

Kenji Doihara is already very generous.

The activity funds of 250,000 yen have exceeded most departments directly controlled by Japanese people.

And as Kenji Doihara said, the distribution of powers at the Intelligence Headquarters has been decided.

Miao Chengfang knew very well what Kenji Doihara was thinking, and he said calmly: "Thank you, Mr. Agency Director, for your trust. Although there are Chinese people in charge of this organization, I personally think it is necessary to send a Japanese consultant.

.”

Tian Qi still knew what the teacher meant.

No matter how nice the Japanese talk, how can they really believe the Chinese? In an organization like the Intelligence Headquarters, how can he be reassured without Japanese people?

Now that Miao Chengfang took the initiative to bring it up, Kenji Doihara could see his "loyalty".

Sure enough, Kenji Doihara was not very polite: "Ah, since Mr. Miao said this, I have to think about it carefully. Yes, adding a consultant can better strengthen the communication between China and Japan." Gongdao

Hiroshi!"

"exist!"

"You will serve as the Japanese advisor to the Intelligence Headquarters."

"yes!"

A very smart choice.

The history of the palace!

He is not Yanagawa Yasunumi, nor is he a friend of Hahara Koichi.

It can also ensure balance while monitoring the intelligence headquarters.

After finishing speaking, Kenji Doihara looked at Tian Qi: "Mr. Tian, ​​do you have any opinions?"

"I don't have any objections, and everything is subject to the arrangements of the head of the agency." Tian Qi said calmly: "I also think that since Lieutenant Colonel Gongdao is an advisor, he has the right to inspect all documents in the intelligence headquarters and ask about everything at work at any time.

arrange."

He is more "loyal" than his teacher!

Kenji Doihara was extremely satisfied: "Very good, then this matter has been settled. It is up to the three of you to choose the specific office location. In my opinion, it is best to be in a public concession."

The establishment of the Intelligence Headquarters meant that the Japanese intelligence agencies in Shanghai began to reuse traitors in order to achieve the purpose of using China to control China.
Chapter completed!
