Chapter 551: Rule the East
Xiang Chu and Wang Manxue appeared at the door of Fujiwara Eizo's office.
Xiang Chu said in astonishment: "Father! Are you able to work now?"
Fujiwara Eizo said happily, "Nobita! Of course, father can. By the way, you had dinner with Tamon Saburo and others at the Yamato Hotel last night. There was no assassination incident, right?"
Xiang Chu smiled and said, "It happened. The dinner is cancelled."
Shan Xia Feng Wu said with a smile, "My dear nephew! The rumors outside are all caused by you."
"Uncle, you're too kind! What does this have to do with Nobita? Haha!"
Xiang Chu laughed out loud, feeling a bit tacitly understood.
Fujiwara Eizo laughed and said, "Yes! How could it be my Nobita? Haha!"
At this time, Kitagawa Jinxiu walked into the office and reported loudly: "Commander! According to border reports, the Soviet army has recently been making frequent movements in Nomonhan near the Khalkhin River and near Zhanggufeng. There may be a two-front invasion attempt."
Fujiwara Eizo frowned and said, "Why haven't the Soviets been scared yet? They are coming again."
Xiang Chu wished that Japan and the Soviet Union could fight again, and praised: "Father! No matter how many Soviet troops come, they are no match for you."
Fujiwara Eizo said arrogantly: "Of course! The Soviets don't know how to fight hand-to-hand."
Yamashita Fengwu bowed and said, "Commander! In order to prevent any accidents, we should send intelligence personnel to Vladivostok to gather intelligence on the Soviet army."
Fujiwara Eizo smiled bitterly and said, "In the past, our army relied on the intelligence of the Muto Agency. Now that he is dead, who can our army find to go to Soviet territory to gather intelligence?"
Xiang Chu said hurriedly: "Father! Daxiong is willing to take Manxue who knows Russian, and the elite agents of the Shadow Agency to act as a caravan to Vladivostok to gather intelligence and help you solve your problems."
"this......"
Fujiwara Eizo hesitated for a moment, then said happily,
"Okay! But be careful."
"Don't worry, father! Nobita will definitely fulfill his mission."
Xiang Chu respectfully accepted the order and turned to instruct the Fusang female nurse,
"Miss! Please help General Fujiwara to the inner room to rest. The working hours can only be increased gradually."
"Hello!"
The Japanese nurse hurriedly took the order.
She stepped forward and supported Fujiwara Eizo with her weak shoulders, feeling both skilled and ambiguous.
Yamashita Fengwu and Kitagawa Jinxiu hurriedly left with smirks on their faces.
Xiang Chu hurriedly closed the door of the inner room and found the headquarters seal, Fujiwara no Eizo's seal and the approval note.
After he stamped a large stack, he also got a few customs clearance documents.
Only then did he call Beichuan Jinxiu over to take over the work and take Wang Manxue away from the Far East Operations Command.
Wang Manxue asked doubtfully, "Dear! Are you really going to collect Soviet intelligence for your fake father?"
Xiang Chu shook his head and said, "I am playing a game that is a rip-off for my father. I hope they can fight and defeat me."
Wang Manxue said thoughtfully, "But you are the director of the Japanese film agency. If you are caught by the Soviets, you will definitely be shot."
Xiang Chu said disapprovingly: "I am still Lord Chu, and I have Soviet classmates, don't worry."
Wang Manxue shook her head and said, "It would be great if you had an identity as a Red Party member. The Soviet Bolsheviks were also the Red Party, and their army was also called the Red Army. Oh, right! You can play the role of the Red Party's ace agent, 'Phoenix'."
Xiang Chu couldn't help but laugh and said, "Manxue! Do you really like the 'Phoenix' so much?"
Wang Manxue nodded and said, "Yes! Because he kills bad guys without blinking an eye, he is my idol."
Xiang Chu happily said: "Okay! To satisfy you, I will play the role of the 'Phoenix' for once."
"Great!"
Wang Manxue clapped her hands and laughed.
Soon, the car arrived at the Fujiwara branch on Central Street.
It is more convenient to go to Vladivostok from Harbin by train.
Xiang Chu called Gan Xin and Liu Zhengxiong, took the radio and a large amount of money, and drove to the train station.
Gan Xin asked in confusion: "Chief! If we don't drive to the Soviet Union, how can we transport the equipment back?"
Wang Manxue corrected them, "Lao Gan! Fatty Liu! This time when we go to the Soviet Union, your chief will play the role of the Red Party's ace agent 'Phoenix'. You two must remember this."
"Playing 'Phoenix'?"
Gan Xin and Liu Zhengxiong cried out in surprise, with an expression of disbelief on their faces.
Xiang Chu said sternly: "You two! Manxue is right. After leaving the country, we must address each other as comrades. The identity documents are used in the Kuomintang-controlled areas. We all use real names. Lao Gan's code name is 'Xinhuo', Lao Liu's code name is 'Huamei', and Manxue's code name is..."
Wang Manxue said anxiously, "'Phoenix'! I'll use the code name 'Thrush'."
Liu Zhengxiong shouted, "Miss Wang! Why are you trying to steal my code name?"
Xiang Chu smiled and said, "Manxue! 'Huamei' is suitable for Lao Liu to cover up, you should use the code name 'Nanfeng'."
"All right!"
Wang Manxue said happily.
Soon, the car arrived at the train station and drove into the safe parking area.
Xiang Chu and his three companions got off the train and bought train tickets to Suifenhe.
Liu Zhengxiong asked in confusion: "Director! Why don't you just buy Vladivostok?"
Xiang Chu smiled bitterly and said, "Chief Steward! We are leaving the country, so we have to pass the checkpoint."
Wang Manxue saw that the Harbin Station had strict inspections for boarding the train, and said thoughtfully:
"It's not certain that we can get out of this state yet."
Gan Xin comforted him, "Don't worry! Just follow the head of the organization."
Xiang Chu showed the director's ID and the special approval note from the commander of the Far East Combat Army to the conductor. The four of them immediately got on the train through a special channel and sat in the VIP compartment of the Asia special car.
The distance from Harbin to Suifenhe is 483 kilometers. The train, which runs at a speed of 85 kilometers per hour, took 6 hours to travel and arrived in Suifenhe at around 3 pm.
It is still 190 kilometers from Suifenhe to Vladivostok.
In order to reach Vladivostok before dark, Xiang Chu and his four companions immediately went to Suifenhe Customs to go through exit procedures.
Because the Soviet Union did not recognize Manchukuo and other factors, the Suifenhe Customs had just been reduced from a branch customs to a branch checkpoint, and the staff was reduced from the original 37 to less than ten people. It was like a dead customs, and there was really no profit.
At this time, the checkpoint chief, Tanaka Minoru, was drowsy in his office.
Xiang Chu knocked on the door and entered, pushing the Lieutenant General's ID as the head of the shadow agency and the clearance documents of the Far East Operations Command in front of him.
Tanaka Shidao took a look and jumped up in shock, exclaiming, "Your Excellency Lieutenant General! I didn't expect you to come to our little place?"
"For the Imperial Crusade, we have to go anywhere."
Xiang Chu smiled, took back the documents and paperwork, and said with pretended concern, "Captain Tanaka! Why do you seem to be in a bad mental state? Are you worried about something?"
Tanaka Sane said respectfully, "Your Excellency, Lieutenant General! There are very few passengers and goods coming and going at this checkpoint right now. We are a self-supporting unit and have no money."
Xiang Chu smiled and said, "The head of our agency is going to Vladivostok to obtain intelligence and do business with the Soviets. A large amount of goods will pass through your checkpoint, which will be of great benefit!"
After he finished speaking, he took out 10,000 yen and pushed it in front of Tanaka Shimae, saying with a smile: "This is a meeting gift. The film agency will give you a lot of customs clearance benefits in the future."
Tanaka Shidao grabbed the money and shouted excitedly, "Thank you! Thank you, Lieutenant General. Tanaka is happy to serve you. There is also a customs chief named Khrulinfu across the customs. He is my business partner. As long as he has money, he can also help you."
Xiang Chu nodded and said, "Very good! My four men and I will leave immediately! We will rush to Vladivostok before dark."
Tanaka Shidao said hurriedly, "Okay! I will handle the customs clearance procedures for you right away."
With his help, Xiang Chu and his four companions quickly passed the Suifenhe checkpoint and boarded the Soviet train to Vladivostok.
In the evening, the train pulled into Vladivostok Railway Station.
With its unique geographical location, Vladivostok has become the largest city in the Soviet Far East and a political, economic and cultural center.
Xiang Chu and his three companions walked out of the train station. Wang Manxue saw the Chinese sign on the city square and asked in confusion, "Dear! What does it mean that Vladivostok was renamed Vladivostok?"
Xiang Chu said bitterly: "Rule the East!"
