Chapter 648: The Origin of the Task

"Chen Jun, this is a material procurement list specially given to you by the dispatch army headquarters. The task must be completed before October 5th. The time given to you is actually only three months." Shigeru Sawada received it at the headquarters. Chen Mingxiang.

"Your Excellency, did you get it wrong? This is the material purchase form of the Central China Liaison Department of the Xingya Institute, and the signature of General Ota Taiji!" Chen Mingxiang glanced at it and was confused.

"This is General Ota Taiji of the Central China Liaison Department of the Xingya Institute. He has listed the types and quantities of materials to the Huatong Trading Company. Your company is a military management enterprise. They are not qualified to issue orders directly. They must be conveyed through the dispatch army headquarters. "Sawada Shigeru said with a smile.

"The number on this list is too much. It will take at least half a year or even longer for Huatong Trading Company to complete this target. I am afraid that it will not even be able to get half of it in three months."

"Huatong Trading Company's relationship with customers in Jiangtong District is fixed, and monthly shipments fluctuate very little. In this case, the Central China Liaison Department of Xingya Institute should know, why should I give me a complete It’s hard for me to understand the mission!"

"If the Central China Liaison Department of Xingya Institute believes that the company is in their hands and can make more contributions to the empire, I can hand over the company." Chen Mingxiang said with a wry smile.

The task itself is not important, but the intention behind it is really hard to figure out. He believes that the Central China Liaison Department of Xingya Institute initiated the idea of ​​Huatong Trading Company and wants to force him to hand over the company. So messy?

In fact, Huatong Trading Co., Ltd. is nothing but an empty shelf regardless of its reputation. The company's liquidity on the books is its own, and the transportation fleet is its own. The office of Bank of China is owned by the military police headquarters and has no assets at all.

All of the company's major customers are personally controlled by him, and they are also affiliated with the Military Statistics Bureau. This nature can guarantee 100% that no one will be able to pry away.

"Chen Jun, you have misunderstood. The imperial army is supporting you. No one dares to rob your company. The Central China Liaison Department of Xingya Institute does not mean that."

"You don't quite understand the key, the base camp formed the Army's Seventeenth Corps and the Navy's Eighth Fleet in May to take charge of operations in the South Pacific and prepare to cut off shipping routes between Australia and the United States."

"This is a front-line combat force. The military must give priority to the deployment of materials, otherwise it will affect the combat effectiveness, which will cause insufficient quotas for other troops stationed in Southeast Asia."

"The war is fighting the economy, and it is also the logistical support. Although the empire’s military manufacturing is very developed, the domestic resources are too scarce, and after the huge consumption of the Southeast Asian war, the domestic raw materials for military industry are extremely short. Cause very serious consequences."

"For this reason, the empire urgently needs to collect strategic materials from all parts of China, and transport them back to Japan as soon as possible to make up for this defect. The cabinet and base camp decided that this work will be specifically responsible for this work by the Central China Liaison Department of the Xingya Institute."

"But when it comes to the supply of so many imperial troops on the battlefields in Southeast Asia, General Taiji Ota thinks that the Central China Liaison Department of the Xingya Institute cannot afford it, so he proposed to the dispatch army headquarters that Huatong Trading Company should also share part of the task. You know that. What's going on!" Sawada Shigeru said.

Japan itself does not have much resources and basically relies on imports. Even if it has some strategic reserves, it cannot support such a large-scale war. The Chinese battlefield has not broken through for a long time, and the Southeast Asian battlefield has been opened up. Material consumption has become a fatal flaw.

how to solve this problem?Of course, it is necessary to plunder the resources of the occupied areas to make up for the holes!

China, with its vast territory and abundant resources, is the first choice of the Japanese government and military. Southeast Asian countries occupy too short a time to reach the capacity of blood transfusion.

However, the strategic materials such as tung oil, bristles, rosin, and lacquer needed by the Japanese army are basically the most abundant resources in Southern China, and it is normal to assign indicators to the Central China Liaison Department of the Xingya Institute.

"But your Excellency, the quantity this time is too much, far beyond the company’s ability to bear. I don’t have any exchangeable materials in my hand, nor do I have so much liquidity. Even if I do, the company’s customers are here. I can't get so many sources in a short time," Chen Mingxiang said.

"I know the situation of Huatong Trading Company very well. There are also detailed records for the quantity of materials provided each month. It is indeed impossible to complete it in three months, and since the textile factory began to move, the number of transactions has been declining. "

"The smuggling method between you and Chiang Tong District mainly relies on cotton yarn and cotton cloth. The Central China Liaison Department of the Koya Institute will organize the supply of goods for you. It will be provided by Japanese textile companies and need to be purchased directly in fiat currency. You can apply to General Ota Taiji."

"Actually, the empire is ready to abolish the Koya Institute and become a new department. I am afraid that General Ota Taiji will not have much time in China. You must seize this good opportunity. Sending the army headquarters means three months. At least 60% must be completed, no less!"

"If you can achieve this goal, next year, Jun Hata will personally apply for an Imperial High Medal for you!" Said Shigeru Sawada.

These words give a lot of information, especially the opportunity for Taiji Ota to leave. There is a deep meaning in it. Chen Mingxiang returned home and thought about it for a long time.

It is not that he doesn't understand what the opportunity is, but how to use this opportunity. Taiji wants to complete this mission and returns to Japan gracefully. Under this premise, as long as similar conditions are acceptable.

"Guo Zuo, Mingyue sent an interesting message. After Kage Sazhen Zhao and Qing Qi Qingyin were transferred, Li Shiqun lost the backstage, and actually asked Chunfeng to help him and Matsui Kutaro to get closer. This is the new supreme military of the Wang puppet government. Advisor, I hope to continue to receive support from the May agency."

"Chunfeng has doubts about this matter. So far, the Japanese side has not taken any action against Li Shiqun. Commander-in-chief Hata Shunroku has been sent to Li Shiqun's work for clearing the country. It is indeed very difficult for him to do this. ."

"Once the spring breeze has contributed to this, Li Shiqun may have a barrier during Matsui Kutaro's tenure, which is very detrimental to future work. But on the other hand, the current latent activities of spring breeze need Li Shiqun's shelter and support, especially It's Huatong Trading Company's problem." Mao Renfeng said with a smile.

The No. 1 enemy of the Military Statistics Bureau, Li Shiqun, the top person in charge of the secret service of the Wang and Puppet government, is arrogant and powerful in the Wang and Puppet government. Li Shiqun, who can break the wrist with Zhou Tuohai, actually wants to ask Chunfeng for help!

Looking at the strategic agents of the Military Reunification Bureau, to what extent they have done their work, Mao Renfeng said with pride.
