Crossing the spy war, my code name is God of Wealth

Chapter 542 Secret Order No. 7

In front of the material warehouse office building, a black sedan with the Chinese Expeditionary Force logo was parked in front of the door.

The license plate number 003 on the car is enough to prove the visitor's noble status.

Chen Yang led a group of people to the front of the car. Nitta Koichi tactfully stepped forward and opened the car door.

Chen Yang bowed slightly to the person who got off the car and said, "Your Excellency General."

"Director Chen is really dedicated. He comes here so early to inquire about material matters." Sato Fumitai smiled and seemed very satisfied with Chen Yang's performance.

"Your Excellency the General needs a true and complete report on materials. We dare not delay." Chen Yang waved his hand, and Mitsuo Inoue on the side hurriedly brought over the accounts.

"I have just checked it carefully. Apart from some losses, all the inventory is exactly the same as recorded in the account."

"Here are the accounts. Please take a look. I will compile all the information into a report and submit it to the Logistics Department of the Chinese Expeditionary Force later."

Sato Fumitsu winked at his adjutant Nakamura Shiro beside him, and Adjutant Nakamura hurried forward and took the account book from Inoue Mitsuo's hand.

"Mr. Sato, let's go to your office and talk." Chen Yang turned sideways and made an inviting gesture.

Koichi Nitta quickly led the way and guided the few people into the office building.

In the office, Koichi Nitta served the two of them some brewed tea and then tactfully left the office, thoughtfully closing the door.

Chen Yang poured a cup of tea for Sato Fumitai and said, "General Sato is usually very busy with affairs, so why did he suddenly think of inspecting the material warehouse today?"

"You're not worried about me, are you?"

Sato Fumitai shook his head slightly and said, "Chen Sangyan is too serious. How could I not believe you?"

"We have worked together for so long, I am still very confident in your work."

"However, this time it was a task assigned by the higher-ups, and I was ordered to come here to check it out."

Chen Yang said in a gentle voice: "What? Someone reported that there is a problem with our material warehouse again?"

Sato Fumitai seemed to hear the dissatisfaction in Chen Yang's mouth, and smiled and said: "Mr. Chen, don't be so suspicious. No one is saying bad things about you."

"Well, to tell you the truth, President Omura of the Manchuria Railway and Section Chief Yamamoto of the Kanzi Division submitted a report to the mainland."

"The report is about optimizing rail transportation,"

"My job now is to check the supplies of the vertical character class."

"The headquarters needs detailed information to determine whether the suggestions they put forward are reasonable."

Chen Yang smiled and said, "You are talking about "Secret Order No. 7". Haha, I have also received instructions from the mainland."

Sato Fumitai said in a gentle voice: "Actually, you don't have to worry too much. The Manchurian Railway's top brass thinks that our current speed of grabbing resources is too slow, which will greatly slow down the war on the Chinese battlefield."

"But what does the situation on the battlefield have to do with the logistics department? They are unable to completely wipe out the main force of the Chinese army. That's their incompetence."

Sato Fumitai was obviously a little excited when he said this. Throughout the past year, the situation of the empire on the Chinese battlefield was not optimistic.

The Battle of Changsha and the Campaign of Southern Guangxi, two large-scale wars, did not achieve the expected results.

Commander Gangcun even attributed the failure of the Changsha Campaign to the untimely delivery of supplies by the logistics department, as the attack was delayed by two weeks than scheduled.

Because of this, the Ninth War Zone had enough time to calmly build a defense line, which resulted in the battle failing to achieve the expected results.

It is undeniable that the logistics department needs to bear a little responsibility, but the biggest responsibility does not lie with the incompetence of your 11th Army.

Cannons, planes, poison gas bombs, and all the supplies available were delivered to the front line without any loss, but you still failed to capture Changsha. Now you turn around and blame the poor logistics.

After taking a breath, Sato Fumitai continued, "The Mainland General Staff has conducted many simulations on the problems on the Chinese battlefield. They also hope to organize a large-scale battle in May this year to defeat the main force of the Nationalist Army on the front battlefield and force the Nationalist government to sign a surrender agreement."

Chen Yang took a sip of tea and said, "But, Mr. Sato, please forgive me for being frank."

"Given the current state of the logistics department, it would be very difficult to launch another large-scale battle."

"The mainland has repeatedly cut its share of supplies in China. If we rely on these supplies right now, I'm afraid we'll have to stop the campaign halfway through."

Sato Buntai frowned, picked up the teacup and took another sip.

He did not refute Chen Yang's words. In fact, he knew better than Chen Yang how big the hole in the logistics department was.

The amount of supplies sent from the mainland was not enough to fill the previous gap.

What they hope most is to achieve great results on the Chinese battlefield and use the resources gained to fill the huge pit that was previously there.

Most of China's mineral resources are in the wild. The area is vast and there are not many needed resources in the city.

Even if the empire occupied more cities, it could not obtain enough resources. They needed to use cities as fulcrums to cover the surrounding areas.

Obtain appropriate resources from the wild.

However, maintaining such results requires a huge amount of troops, not to mention the invasion of various resistance forces when developing resources. Frankly speaking, this resistance will not stop until the Chinese government surrenders.

Their consumption will increase until they are dragged down.

"Knock knock knock," suddenly, a knock on the door interrupted Sato Fumitai's thoughts.

Nitta Koichi opened the door, walked quickly to Chen Yang's side, and whispered, "Section Chief, Captain Hiraoka of the Manchurian Railway Operations Team is here."

"He asked to meet with you. He wanted us to give him a reasonable explanation as to why Nishihara Takano and Imamura Ichiji were shot."

Chen Yang frowned and said, "Do you still need me to intervene in such a small matter?"

Nitta Koichi said awkwardly: "They have the investigation warrant from the Chinese Special Affairs Team. If you don't give them an explanation, they will take Lieutenant Nakamura away."

"They are so bold." Chen Yang's face changed slightly. He stood up and bowed slightly to Sato Fumitai, saying, "Mr. Sato, I have something small to deal with. Please sit down for a while. I will be back soon."

After saying that, Chen Yang and Nitta Koichi walked out of the office.

In front of the warehouse door, Hiraoka Kanbei looked at the two corpses beside him with a grim face.

These two people were Nishihara Takano and Imamura Ichiji, who had received orders in the morning to follow Chen Yang.

In fact, when Aoki Yusuke gave the order, Hiraoka Kanbei was also a little worried. After all, Chen Yang had a bad reputation and was not someone that was easy to mess with.

However, he could not have imagined that Chen Yang would dare to shoot the Mantie people without saying a word.

After receiving the news, Hiraoka Kanbei immediately led his subordinates to ask for an explanation.

In any case, the people of the Mantetsu Railway cannot just die in such an unclear manner.

What made him even more angry was that after arriving here, they couldn't even enter the warehouse door.
