Chapter 732: The Navy's Stupid Work

The Japanese invaders had a lot of nerve, daring to shoot in the concession.

They definitely had a plan before they did it. Was it probably arranged by Kagezo?

It seems that Kagezo replaced Akagi as the assistant to the police chief of the concession police station. This Kagezo was said to be even more cunning than Akagi.

Later, the 76th Demon Cave was closely linked to Kagezo.

It seems that this guy also led the Mei agency?

It is estimated that the information about him has not been completely destroyed, so his name has been left in history.

There must be many more Japanese spies who are more cunning and sinister than Kagezawa, but since the relevant information has been destroyed, there is no record of them. They have disappeared since then.

Whether they are dead or alive, no one knows.

Perhaps, they are still hiding in the dark, silently carrying out their evil mission of continuing to subvert China...

Otherwise, how would there be so many strange and weird things in the future?

The three Japanese spies were driving fast. However, the direction they were heading in didn't seem to be out of the concession. Instead, they were heading towards the docks. This was strange. Shots were fired. They didn't even leave the concession first. Were they waiting to be arrested?

Even if you are Japanese, if you fired a gun and killed someone, if you were caught by the police, it would probably not be easy to deal with.

In the public concession, the French are the boss, the British are second, and the Americans are third. The Japanese are not yet on the table. Is Kagezo, a small assistant to the police commissioner, really capable of covering up everything?

Something doesn't feel right.

And something even weirder happened.

After escaping for a while, the three Japanese invaders actually slowed down.

After a while, they were even slower than a snail.

I don't understand...

Are they waiting to be arrested by the police?

In fact, the map shows that there are already many weapons moving around nearby. It is estimated that they are armed police.

Never mind. Arrest them first.

Arrange.

Outflank from the side.

The Japanese invaders are moving very slowly, and they will soon be intercepted in front.

Because the Japanese invaders have weapons in their hands. Therefore, Zhang Yong adopted the tactic of fighting a lion with a rabbit. Send everyone out and decisively pounce.

As a result, the three Japanese soldiers did not put up much of a fight.

Or rather, they almost surrendered voluntarily. As soon as they saw someone coming at them, they immediately raised their hands.

No shots were fired.

The Japanese soldiers voluntarily raised their weapons.

As they surrendered, they shouted loudly, 'We are agents of the Fuxing Society! We are Zhang Yong's men! Zhang Yong told us to do this, Zhang Yong...'

Their voices were loud. The shouts were very clear. Very skilled.

It was as if the words had been rehearsed countless times.

Zhang Yong was stunned.

So were the people around him.

Even Feng Yunshan, the idiot, looked at Zhang Yong suspiciously, turning his head.

Zhang Yong wanted to slap him.

You idiot!

I'll arrange for three retards to rob the place!

Before they've even been caught, they're shouting everywhere that Zhang Yong arranged it. It's insane.

'Someone's framing you!'

Fortunately, Feng Yunshan reacted immediately.

This is a smear campaign against Zhang Yong! They're just waiting for someone to get arrested and confess.

The confession will be that Zhang Yong ordered it. That Zhang Yong arranged it.

Then the British-run International Settlement Zone will have to take action against Zhang Yong. They'll have to protest to the Nationalist government.

Then, Zhang Yong will probably be in trouble.

Everyone knows that Chiang is weak when it comes to foreigners. As soon as the foreigners protest, Zhang Yong will definitely be in trouble.

Zhang Yong knows this himself.

No wonder these three Japanese invaders are acting so strangely. They're trying to set me up.

Damn it. These three bastards.

But Zhang Yong quickly calmed down. He wasn't nervous.

He had been through a lot recently, and things weren't going his way. It seemed that he and Chu Zuo had also grown apart.

As for the Department of Air and Space, Yang Lichu was keeping it a secret, and he, Zhang Yong, wasn't even allowed to know. It felt as if there was a gap between him and the Department of Air and Space too.

Perhaps it was just an illusion. But Zhang Yong had to be prepared for anything.

Prepared for what?

To become a bandit. To struggle to survive.

If one day the situation really got so bad that the Director was secretly plotting against him, trying to get rid of him, and the Department of Planning and Budgeting didn't care, then he would have to find a way out for himself.

The Red Party might be able to offer him some help. But the Red Party's capabilities were limited, so he couldn't hope for too much.

Apart from the Red Party, no one else can be relied upon. Including Li Boqi.

Li Boqi is not unwilling to help. He is just powerless. If the Director really takes action against him, Zhang Yong, he will definitely deal with Li Boqi first!

So what should he do? Isn't that the end?

Of course not. The worst that Zhang Yong can do is to run away first. Find a place to hide for a while. And then reappear in the world.

He has it all planned out. At the worst, he will kill the Japanese invaders on his own.

If the military intelligence comes to bother him, he will take them down as well.

With the help of the map, he is not afraid. Whoever tries to do him in will have to deal with him.

He has money.

He has guns.

He has people.

Right now, being smeared is just part of the normal routine.

Even the head of the department has been set up. How about a rookie like him?

Even Commander Money, a powerful figure in his position, was attacked by his political enemies and eventually left the military to become a village teacher for two years.

So, life is full of ups and downs, and there's nothing remarkable about it. No one can stay at the top forever.

'Baka! Are you Zhang Yong's men?' Zhang Yong was furious.

'Yes, we are...' One Japanese spy gradually felt that something was wrong. The other party seemed to be at war with Zhang Yong?

'Rip out their eyes!' Zhang Yong said coldly. "Zhang Yong's men are dead. Baka!'

Dou Wanjiang and the others suppressed their laughter. They kept their faces stern. They went up and did it.

One "smart' Japanese spy immediately realised that something was wrong. What did the other person curse? Baka?

No, it's over. Could it be that they had run into their own people?

They pretended to be Zhang Yong's men, and then they fell into the hands of the Japanese themselves?

Oh no!

Wouldn't that be the end?

The people in front of them are most likely Japanese!

They hate Zhang Yong to the bone. In a fit of rage, they might tear them limb from limb and reduce them to ashes.

Ahhh...

They're dead...

They pretended to be Zhang Yong's men and then met their Japanese accomplices!

What should they do?

What should they do?

They saw the other party coming up ferociously, about to attack. The dagger gleamed with a cold light. The Japanese spy couldn't care less, and hurriedly shouted, 'Don't get me wrong, we're Japanese! We're Japanese! We're fake Zhang Yong's men! We're fake...'

'Hagah!' Zhang Yong angrily cursed, 'How dare you deny it? You clearly said you were Zhang Yong's men just now!'

'No, no, we really are impostors,' the Japanese spy panicked. 'We were carrying out Lord Sakai's orders, specifically to pretend to be Zhang Yong's men, then rob, then be deliberately caught by the police, and then the police station would go to trouble for Zhang Yong...'

'Baka!' Zhang Yong slapped him twice, making both sides of his cheeks red and swollen. 'Who came up with such a stupid idea? Was it Kagezawa? He's such a stupid idiot! His brain must have been sat on by an elephant's butt.'

The three Japanese spies looked at each other in confusion.

They were scared.

Who was this guy? He even cursed Kagezawa?

My god!

'Baka! You army idiots are all stupid!' Zhang Yong corrected himself, "It's really bad luck to run into you army idiots!'

'What? You're navy..." one Japanese spy blurted out. He almost said the word "idiot". Fortunately, he managed to hold back in the end. Otherwise, he felt that his life would definitely be in danger. No wonder the other party was so rude and impolite. It turned out to be navy idiots!

Baka!

The three Japanese spies couldn't help but curse inwardly.

What's the navy's stupid ass doing interfering in our army's business? What do you mean, you're here to arrest us?

Baka...

But dare not speak out.

No, dare not even show anger.

Otherwise, they wouldn't be able to tell if the navy's stupid ass would just chop them up and feed them to the dogs.

What bad luck...

I shouldn't have gone out today...

Pretending to be Zhang Yong's men, they ended up meeting the navy's stupid asses.

What bad luck... It's really unlucky to open the door to bad luck, and it's just too bad...

'Hand over the goods.'

'What...'

'The goods you stole.'

'We...'

The three Japanese spies looked at each other. Meekly, they took out three cloth bags.

The stolen goods they had looted from the Spanish trading company, as well as some money, were stuffed inside. One for each. They had not even had time to take a closer look when they were blocked. They secretly hated. The Navy horse deer actually dared to rob us, the Army. Baka...

Zhang Yong grabbed the cloth bag and opened it. He checked it one by one. He found that there was nothing of value inside at all. It was just a bunch of scattered banknotes. There were no gold bars. There were no US dollars or British pounds either. The anger in his heart flared up even more.

Damn it, you pretended to be one of my men and robbed the store. Could you at least have chosen a goldsmith's shop?

A goldsmith's shop!

There were so many goldsmith's shops in the concession! So many gold bars!

Just grab a few catties of gold!

But you ended up robbing a grocery store owned by a Spaniard!

Damn it!

That's outrageous! You've ruined my reputation!

When did I, Zhang Yong, stoop so low as to rob a grocery store? I'm not even satisfied with ten thousand taels of silver these days!

The more I thought about it, the angrier I got.

It was fine for you to impersonate me, Zhang Yong. But it was outrageous for you to ruin my reputation.

'Baka!'

'You stupid idiots in the Imperial Army!'

'Baka!'

Zhang Yong shouted.

He smashed the cloth bag in the faces of the three Japanese invaders.

Stupid as pigs!

Robbing a gold shop!

Baka!

Just like Sugiyama Gen, they are both thickheads. I don't know how Sugiyama Gen became Chief of the General Staff...

The three Japanese invaders bowed their heads. They looked sad.

All they could think about was their hatred for the navy. As for how the hatred came about, they were not sure. Anyway, they just hated.

'Baka! You don't believe me, do you?'

'No...'

'If you don't believe me, go to the Hongkou Marine Corps headquarters and find me! My name is Hanamichi Sakuragi!'

'No...'

'Baka!'

'Pat!'

'Pat!'

Zhang Yong shouted angrily.

Then he gave each of the other two Japanese spies two slaps.

In all spy dramas or war dramas, the Japanese superiors are very fond of slapping their subordinates.

It's not fiction. After all, the Japanese themselves made movies like this.

The stick of the spirit, the slap in the face, is a naval tradition. I guess the army has even more corporal punishment than the navy.

So the point is to hit. To slap the other person hard.

Sure enough, the three Japanese spies, after receiving consecutive slaps in the face, lowered their heads and kept quiet. They didn't dare to look up.

Whether it's a naval horse or an army horse, the hierarchy is extremely strict. The lower level dares not rebel against the higher level.

But...

a subordinate can assassinate a superior. He can chop the superior to death...

Heh heh...

'Where is Sakai?'

'...'

No one answered.

It wasn't that they didn't know. It was that they didn't dare to answer.

The person in question was a navy idiot! Who knew what a navy idiot would do?

"Hah!'

Zhang Yong drew his trident. He directly gagged one.

Not talking? Then I'm sorry. Go meet Nogi Maresuke. He is the military god of your army idiots...

'I'll talk, I'll talk.'

'I'll talk, I'll talk.'

The other two Japanese spies cried out in unison.

Damn it! These Navy brutes don't hesitate to kill! They just kill! They don't even threaten first.

It's so brutal...

They hurriedly told the location of their boss, Sakai Taro.

It wasn't far. It was just a little over 200 metres ahead. However, the two Japanese spies hesitated.

'Hagah...'

'He, he is discussing something with Dou Yishan.'

'Dou Yishan?'

'Yes. Dou Yishan. Dou Yishan promised us that he would help us spread the news that Zhang Yong was behind the robbery.'

'I see.'

Zhang Yong's expression did not change.

Inside, he was already seething. This Dou Yishan. He really is looking for death.

I didn't even provoke him, and he's actually backstabbing me. He's even cooperating with the Japanese and slinging mud at me. Never mind, he's acting under false pretenses.

That Paris Night Club on the sea seems to be doing pretty well.

We haven't been able to find Dou Yishan's US dollars and British pounds before, so maybe we need to find him in person?

However, Dou Yishan knows me. I guess it's not possible for me to continue pretending to be a naval idiot. Sakai probably knows me too.

These three Japanese spies may be too low-ranking to have seen their own photos. But Sakai probably has. If they meet, they will be found out.

What should they do?

It's fine. If they are found out, so be it.

Call them out. Arrest them directly. Then see what to do next.

'You, call, Sakai, out,' Zhang Yong said coldly. Practically word for word. Speaking Chinese like a Japanese.

'Yes...' The two spies obediently answered. They dared not make the slightest move.

They had just been gagged. Of course they were afraid.

It would be quite frustrating to die at the hands of a naval idiot. They wouldn't even be able to enter the Yasukuni Shrine.

Why?

Because they didn't die in battle. They died at the hands of their own people.

Zhang Yong escorted the two spies to make a phone call.

The two spies spoke gibberish, and Zhang Yong didn't understand a word.

However, the two Japanese spies did not dare to do anything. They were convinced that Zhang Yong was a naval idiot. Of course he speaks Japanese!

If he says the wrong thing, he might be killed on the spot.

What kind of weapon did Zhang Yong just use? Is it a special naval idiot weapon? I've never seen it before...

Damn it...

The naval idiot actually used a secret weapon to kill an army man. Damn it. When the army captures the naval idiot, they must also be killed...

'Lord Sakai will be here soon...'

'Good.'

Zhang Yong immediately set up an ambush.

Soon after, a red dot appeared on the edge of the map. It must be Sakai.

Immediately set up an ambush.

Once the target enters the ambush circle, immediately capture.

Sakai: !@#¥%...

What's going on?

What's going on?

Before he could react, he was already tied up like a dumpling.

Then he saw Zhang Yong. Looking him up and down. Unable to determine his identity.

Zhang Yong: ?

Huh? Is there really such a big prawn?

The other person's expression seems to indicate that he doesn't recognise him as Zhang Yong? This is a rare sight!

I thought even the minor Japanese officers would have seen his photo. I didn't expect that I was overthinking it. In fact, his status was not that high. The Japanese spies who had seen his photo were actually in the minority. Most of the Japanese spies had no idea who he was.

Okay, a bit disappointing. But from a practical point of view, this is a good thing.

Since the other party doesn't know who you are, you can do whatever you want without restraint. After all, it's the Japanese navy that's going to take the blame.

Haha!

The guy who's going to take the blame has come to you voluntarily.

The Japanese navy is rich and powerful, and has deep conflicts with the army. Taking the blame is actually very good...

Okay, Sakuragi Hanamichi, Japanese navy captain, let's go!

Go up, without saying a word.

Swing your palm.

'Pat!'

'Pat!'

Two slaps for Sakai first.

It seems that this is how Japanese invaders always start in TV movies.

In fact, Zhang Yong's palm is a bit sore. He has already been slapped six times in a row. The face belongs to someone else, but the palm is his own.

However, he cannot use special insoles for slapping people in the face. Otherwise, it would not be realistic.

Japanese invaders always slap their subordinates with their hands.

Okay, bear the pain...

'Hagah!'

'You, army idiot, baka, stupid!'

he shouted.

Sakai: ?

What's going on?

Why are you calling us army idiots?

Baka!

Are you a navy idiot?

Ahhh, Sakai immediately began to struggle violently.

He thought he had met someone, but he didn't expect it to be the damned navy idiot who should have drowned a million times!

Is this intolerable?

It's one thing if someone else grabs you, but it's absolutely intolerable for Navy Horse to do it.

Even though a rag was stuffed in his mouth, Sakai was making a mad 'oooh' sound. He desperately tried to push the rag out of his mouth. Unfortunately, he couldn't.

'Baka!'

'You stupid Army Horse!'

'Baka!'

Zhang Yong cursed as he pulled the rag out of the other person's mouth.

He had wanted to give the other person two slaps in the face. However, his own palms really hurt. So he refrained. Slapping someone in the face is fun, but it's not cost-effective if your hands hurt. I wonder if there's a quick fix for iron hands? I really need it!

'You Navy idiots, baka!'

The rag in Sakai's mouth was pulled away. He immediately shouted impatiently.

In front of the Navy's horse, the Army must never show weakness. Otherwise, it would be even worse than dying at the hands of the enemy. The Navy's horse is the Army's greatest enemy!

"How dare you insult the Navy?'

'Baka!'

Sakai is really a man who is not afraid of death.

No. He cannot show weakness in front of the Navy. No army should lose to the Navy.

Otherwise, it would be considered a great shame by the Army.

'Pat!'

'Pat!'

Without a doubt, he received two more slaps.

Even though his hands hurt, Zhang Yong had to take personal charge. He slapped Sakai around like a pig's head.

Haha. It turns out that the pig-headed squad leader in old movies really exists. As long as the slaps are hard enough, the Japanese invaders' cheeks can really swell up very high. Becoming a veritable pig's head.

'Baka...' However, Sakai was still not convinced.

'It seems that you want to go back to Hongkou with us and taste the spirit-injecting rod of our navy,' Zhang Yong sneered.

Sakai finally remained silent.

He didn't dare to argue.

'Spiritual injection stick,' what a terrifying name.

A slap in the face won't kill someone. But a spiritual injection stick will definitely kill someone.

His cheeks were swollen and red. His mouth was full of blood. His voice was weak.

'What do you want?'
