Chapter 921 Reclaiming the Concession



Chapter 921 Reclaiming the Concession

September of the 30th year of the Republic of China.

The Japanese invasion of Changsha began in the early morning of September 7.

In order to cover up the main combat intention, the Japanese army launched a large-scale sweep of Dayun Mountain around Changsha.

The purpose was to make the Changsha troops think that this was a campaign to eliminate counter-revolutionaries and not a military action against Changsha.

In order to conceal the operation, the 40th Division transferred from North China to Changsha went around to Hunan from the rear.

As long as Changsha's troops are attracted to the south of Miluo River, this force can cooperate with the originally deployed troops from inside and outside.

The tactic of flanking attack is the Japanese's favorite and best fighting style.

Unfortunately, they didn't know that this battle was not as simple as they imagined.

Shanghai Stock Exchange, Joint Transport Department.

After the allocation of materials was completed, the Joint Transport Department obviously had much less work to do.

Everyone seemed to be waiting for good news from the front line.

Knock, knock, knock! The office door was pushed open and He Yuehua walked in with a stack of documents.

"Minister, as you instructed, these are the items you asked me to buy. Some of them need to be customized and are currently out of stock."

"Minister, I estimated that it would take about two months to gather everything according to your requirements."

Chen Yang frowned. Two months seemed a bit long. When Haley was four months old, she should be a little pregnant.

It would definitely not look good to wear a wedding dress like this.

However, there is nothing in this world that money can't solve.

"Secretary He, please contact them again. All the preparations must be gathered within a month."

"I can offer three times, no, ten times the price. In any case, it must be ready before October."

"The wedding date is October 7th."

He Yuehua bowed slightly and said, "Okay, I'll arrange it right away."

Seeing He Yuehua go out, Chen Yang threw away the pen in his hand and tugged at the collar of his clothes.

I thought marriage was just a matter between two people, but the answer is obviously not.

Just dealing with all these miscellaneous things gave Chen Yang a headache. In his opinion, getting married was more troublesome than transporting supplies.

Knock, knock, knock. Just as he took a breath, the door of the office was pushed open again. He Yuehua stood at the door and said, "Minister, someone from the Jinling government came and wants to see you."

Jinling government? The last time Guo Zuming came, he was scared away by Chen Yang's coordination of supplies.

What was sent this time?

"Let him in." Chen Yang gathered the documents on the table and said lightly.

He Yuehua bowed slightly and hurried to pass on the message.

After a while, a young figure appeared at the office door.

The man was about thirty years old, wearing a well-fitting suit and a pair of gold-rimmed glasses. At first glance, he looked gentle and elegant.

Chen Yang was a little surprised to see this person: "Hey, Secretary Sun, why are you here?"

This man is called Sun Shaoqian, President Chen’s personal secretary, and a well-known figure in Jinling.

Chen Yang doesn't know many people in Jinling, and this person is one of them. After all, Chen Yang is now on the same line with Dean Chen.

Moreover, the Japanese had already made arrangements. If Mr. Chen left, Dean Chen would be his successor, and Chen Yang would also be one of Dean Chen's right-hand men.

Sun Shaoqian bowed slightly to Chen Yang and said, "Hello, Minister Chen."

"I came here this time on the orders of the dean. I have something important to discuss with you."

"Do you have time tonight? The dean wants to see you."

"To see me?" Chen Yang asked doubtfully, "The dean wants me to go to Jinling?"

"This is a bit difficult. I have a lot of things to do here and I can't get away for a while."

"You don't have to go to Jinling." Sun Shaoqian said respectfully: "The dean is in Shanghai now. He asked you to meet him at the Shanghai Hotel in the evening."

Shanghai Hotel, President Chen unexpectedly came to Shanghai without making any noise,

Chen Yang was a little surprised. Could it be that Jinling was planning to transfer Mayor Zhou back and then arrange for Dean Chen to come over?

It doesn't seem likely. Dean Chen's strength in Jinling is constantly increasing. Moreover, as one of the few people who knows about Mr.'s condition, he will definitely not give up Jinling and run to Shanghai at this time.

Even if he was willing, the Japanese would not.

The forces in Jinling are far more complicated than imagined.

Mr.'s appeal was still very strong at that time. Minister Lin of the Propaganda Department, Minister Chu of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Minister Bao of the Ministry of Military Affairs, and Minister Chen of the Ministry of the Interior were all his confidants.

Dean Chen's power is even behind his, but Dean Chen's biggest trump card is the support of the Japanese.

In addition to these two, Mayor Zhou and Liang Hongzhi from the Procuratorate have their own forces.

The power of these people has become much smaller. The current situation is the matter between you and Dean Chen.

At this time, Chen Yang's stance became particularly important, because everyone in Jinling knew that Chen Yang's attitude was equal to that of the Japanese.

"At 7 o'clock in the evening, the dean will be waiting for Minister Chen at the Shanghai Hotel." Sun Shaoqian took out a gold-plated invitation from his arms and placed it respectfully in front of Chen Yang.

Then he stood up, bowed slightly, and left the office.

At seven o'clock in the evening, Chen Yang arrived as scheduled according to the time on the invitation.

On the third floor of Shanghai Hotel, Chen Yang walked up to the third floor under the guidance of the waiter. At the corner of the stairs, he saw Sun Shaoqian standing there waiting.

"Minister Chen, you are on time as expected..." Sun Shaoqian waved to the waiter, indicating that she didn't need to follow him in.

Chen Yang smiled and said, "President Chen has made an appointment with me, so I will naturally come on time."

Sun Shaoqian smiled faintly when he heard this, and led Chen Yang to the door of a box: "Minister Chen, please come in, the dean has been waiting inside for a long time."

Chen Yang said thank you, pushed open the door of the box and walked in slowly.

"Hey, Brother Chen. You're finally here." Dean Chen was very polite when he saw Chen Yang coming in. He stood up and walked to the door and said, "I know you have a lot of things to do, but it's really a bit presumptuous of me to ask you to entertain an old guy like me."

Wow, the president of the Legislative Yuan of the new Nanjing government actually lowered his posture so much. It seems that something big is going to happen tonight.

Chen Yang quickly said, "No, no, Dean Chen has an appointment, and as a subordinate, I naturally dare not refuse."

"I wonder what you want me to come here for today?"

"Sit down and talk, sit down and talk." Dean Chen politely invited Chen Yang to sit down and poured him a glass of wine.

"Brother Chen, you are so powerful in the Shanghai market, and you are the only one who can do this."

"Dean, what exactly do you want?" Chen Yang didn't know what Dean Chen was planning for a moment.

"Well, I'll be frank with you." Dean Chen picked up the wine glass and drank it all, then slowly said: "The government plans to take back the concession in Shanghai."
