Prior to this visit to Yang Wei, Michio Ikeda had heard of Yang Wei's name. During the gun battle that took place in the Shanghai concession area, Yang Wei led five of his men and defeated the Japanese military police and the French concession patrol.

This incident caused a certain sensation among the Japanese troops in China. They have been looking for various excuses for the defeated Imperial Japanese Concession Military Police, but they have not yet found a reasonable explanation.

Therefore, Michio Ikeda's visit had another purpose besides asking Yang Wei to hand over Liao Huaji and the seized weapons.

Thinking of this, Michio Ikeda's expression softened a lot, and the tight muscles on his face relaxed. He looked at Yang Wei and smiled: "Commander Yang, this joke is not funny. We are serious businessmen.

Chinese people go to China to do business for the purpose of mutual benefit and will never do such bad things."

Yang Weixin said that the Japanese have done few bad things in China. When did they not come in the name of helping the Chinese, or pitifully pretended to be self-defense, but dogs are dogs after all, even if they smile charmingly,

Yang Wei couldn't hold back his fangs. Yang Wei would not believe a word of Michio Ikeda's statement. He said solemnly: "Since Mr. Ikeda is here for business, he should not care about the household affairs of us Chinese.

Son."

Anyway, no matter what he said, Yang Wei kept blocking Ikeda Michio out of the matter, not giving him a chance to intervene. Ikeda Michio had no patience to continue playing this kind of word game with Yang Wei. He sat upright and said with a serious face:

"Although I say this, I have heard about Commander Yang's abilities for a long time. Seeing that Commander Yang has such a high talent but has to devote himself to the position of Hangzhou garrison commander, I really feel sorry for Commander Yang." Quenching Blood

Yang Wei immediately heard something in the Japanese's words but pretended to be dumbfounded and said disapprovingly: "Mr. Ikeda is a compliment. In the army, regardless of ability or qualifications, there are many people above Yang Wei. It is really not worth mentioning. Governor Qi

I can’t thank Yang Wei enough for admiring him and promoting me to my current position.”

After all, Michio Ikeda is a Japanese. No matter how fluently he speaks Chinese, he still didn't hear the pun in Yang Wei's words. He still thought he was right and said: "Commander Yang's words are too modest. In my opinion, with Commander Yang's ability

Serving as the commander of the Hangzhou garrison is really unworthy of my talent, but I have an opportunity that will definitely make Mr. Yang prosperous."

In the end, Michio Ikeda no longer used the title "Commander" when addressing Yang Wei. Yang Wei looked at Michio Ikeda lazily and asked: "Opportunity? It seems that Yang is really ignorant. He has never heard of Japanese soldiers in so many years."

There are good opportunities here.”

Yang Wei's words were full of contempt, and Ikeda Michio was so angry that his nose was not his nose or his eyes. But just when Yang Wei was proud, the door of the private room was pushed open, and a Japanese officer walked in unceremoniously.

This officer was considered a burly figure among the Japanese. He came majestically and sat down opposite Yang Wei. He looked at Yang Wei with bright eyes and said in a rich voice: "I am Fujita Kon, the assistant officer of the embassy in Nanjing.

Saburo, I hope you can obey the command and leadership of the Imperial Army of the Empire of Japan and fight with the Empire of Japan against the Northern Expedition."

Kinzaburo Fujita is the auxiliary officer of the legation, and this auxiliary officer is a military officer. He speaks directly and will not show off like Michio Ikeda.

Although Yang Wei likes to deal with such simple people, at least to save time, after hearing Fujita Konsaburo's words, Yang Wei immediately felt a headache. He would rather go around in circles and practice Tai Chi with Ikeda Michio. A person like Fujita Konsaburo's openness and honesty made Yang Wei temporarily

I don't know how to answer it.

Kinzaburo Fujita didn't even look at Yang Wei and thought to himself: "The Northern Expeditionary Army will one day go north, and then Governor Qi Xieyuan will also fight against it. As the Hangzhou garrison commander, it is inevitable for Mr. Yang to fight with the Northern Expeditionary Army.

Instead of conquering his world for Governor Qi Xieyuan, Mr. Yang should cooperate with our Empire of Japan to gain a share of benefits for himself. As long as Mr. Yang cooperates with us and obeys the Imperial Army of Japan to fight against the Northern Expedition, then the Japanese Marine Corps stationed in Shanghai will

The combined fleet with the navy will participate in the battle together and will definitely be able to stop the Northern Expedition's attack."

Regardless of financial or material resources, Japan is far superior to Qi Xieyuan. Obviously, the Japanese have great confidence in the so-called Imperial Navy Combined Fleet.

In the Zhili-Fengtian War that broke out in April 1922, the Fengtian clique received great help from Japan. At that time, all countries agreed that no matter who supported any of the many warlords, they would not sell weapons to China. However, in just two years, Japan

The arms sold to the Feng Clan reached more than three million, and they even invested in the Feng Clan to establish the Northeast Arsenal.

All these actions of Japan seem to be helping the Feng faction, but in fact they are helping themselves. At the same time, Japan is also vigorously identifying and training pro-Japanese officers. All these actions are to prepare for future aggression, just as

A few years later, Prime Minister Tanaka declared to Emperor Showa: If you want to conquer the world, you must first conquer China.

The so-called "own interests" are all Japanese nonsense. Yang Wei sneered at this. However, as a soldier, Fujita Kinzaburo couldn't see any difference in his eyebrows and kept chattering: "Mr. Yang, if you obey the Emperor of Japan,

If the leadership of the army can receive our protection and strong support in the future, it will definitely become an army that surpasses the Northern Expeditionary Army."

Yang Wei couldn't help laughing. He knew best whether there was any hope. How could he, who was familiar with history, believe in the hopeless "hope" of the Japanese.

Seeing that Fujita Konzaburo was already speaking with tears in his eyes, but Yang Wei remained unmoved, this made Michio Ikeda a little anxious. He had followed the instructions of his superiors and hoped to win over Yang Wei. If Yang Wei also submitted,

On the Japanese side, it means that they have mastered the provincial defense brigade and the garrison department at the same time. Qi Xieyuan's military strength in Hangzhou instantly turned into an empty bag, and he could use the direct line to come forward to confront the Northern Expeditionary Army. In this position, Yang Wei was a leader.

A very crucial chess piece.

Moreover, the Japanese have also heard about Yang Wei's ability. If they can recruit Chinese people with such abilities to fight with the Chinese themselves, the Japanese can simply watch the show with their arms folded.
