People in the Republic of China era began to rise from industry.

Chapter 113 The Japanese Army's Collective Farewell Ceremony

Fang Chang took matters into his own hands, eliminating the Black Dragon Society's leader Xingzhu and personally retaliating against the matter. Lin Yi considered this the end of the matter.

The original purpose of this matter was simply to find Fang Chang some temporary work to relieve the negative emotions that had been building up in his heart.

He had the longest contact with Fang Chang and knew that the guy had a very high opinion of himself.

They set out with great ambition to organize a mercenary operation, but their initial efforts were unsuccessful.

Ultimately, considering the overall situation, he chose to voluntarily step down.

But failure is failure.

It is simply impossible for a proud person to accept this calmly.

If he isn't given a chance to vent and regain his confidence, Lin Yi is worried that he will become even more abnormal.

Now that it's soothed, let it cool down for a while.

Next, Lin Yi planned to arrange for him to train a super assassin unit.

The number of people doesn't need to be large, a hundred or so will suffice.

This is within Fang Chang's management capabilities and is also what he is best at.

It will be carefully honed into a sharp sword, primarily used to protect itself.

Secondly, it involves carrying out special tasks.

This includes assassinations of important figures, as well as internal control measures... primarily targeting the mercenaries under Sun Zhongneng's command.

A force of over 10,000 people, well-trained, well-equipped, and highly combat-effective.

It's easy to imagine that once he steps onto the stage, he will attract covetous eyes from all sides.

Although he had already taken the initiative to establish checks and balances.

Even during his conversation with Sun Zhongneng, he made a firm requirement that the training of mercenaries should focus on small team combat.

It is important to cultivate commanders for small teams.

These methods limit Sun Zhongneng's overall control over this mercenary force.

But there are all sorts of people among a hundred.

It's not just high-ranking commander Sun Zhongneng who might be poached.

Commanders of those small teams may also be poached by others with high salaries.

It's not impossible that they might even use the capital they've gained to actively seek better opportunities elsewhere.

Therefore, it is essential to have a proactive strategy, and equally important to prepare for a swift and decisive punitive strike.

Whoever dares to harm their own interests, that's the one they'll take down.

This includes, but is not limited to, Sun Zhongneng, and Ruan Jianyu, a handsome young man from Guangdong Province.

As for the ambush he suffered at the hands of the Japanese, the subsequent retaliation will be orchestrated by the Americans and Koreans.

All Lin Yi needs to do is provide support when needed.

These low-level games involving daily fighting and killing are no longer worth his time and energy.

He also entrusted the preliminary review and screening work for matters including industry support from the Textile Federation to Wu Rongsheng and Zhang Jingde, the two vice presidents.

He only went through the final step: signing the papers and transferring the money to the textile equipment factory.

We'll gather a group of those who have passed the review, spend half a day talking to them, personally hand over the delivery slips to them, and try to win them over...

For the next few days, Lin Yi stayed at Pier No. 3 without moving.

He pulled along the gradually forming automotive manufacturing technology team from Shanghai University, planning the construction of the automobile factory while simultaneously creating various doodles.

In short, it is a thriving and prosperous scene.

As for the Hongkou Dojo, where people had died, the solemn and somber atmosphere became even heavier with the arrival of the Black Dragon Society's leader, Yamato Mitsuru.

Holding onto the edge of the coffin, the white-haired Shan Tou stood there for a full ten minutes, quietly gazing at his grandson's remains.

A hint of sadness occasionally flashed across his eyes.

"Sir, Chairman Abe has arrived."

The subordinate leaned closer and whispered something.

Shan Tou let out a sigh of relief, straightened up, and asked, "How are the preparations for the farewell ceremony going?"

"It's scheduled for tomorrow."

"Several naval officers, as well as officials from the embassy and consulate general, will be attending."

"In addition, Chairman Abe also notified some well-known businessmen in Shanghai."

Shan Tou nodded, seemingly satisfied with the arrangement.

It shouldn't be too shabby.

"Find someone to make an ear to replace Xingzhu's, it has to be perfect."

Upon hearing the order, the subordinate hurriedly agreed.

Just then, the equally aged Abe Namihei entered, surrounded by several people.

“Abe-kun”.

"Mr. Shantou, please accept my condolences."

Abe Namihei bowed deeply to him.

The two have been friends for many years.

Abe Namihei, who possesses immense wealth, is also one of the financial backers of the Black Dragon Society.

Over the years, the two have helped each other achieve success.

This time I encountered a problem, and as usual, I asked an old friend for help.

Abe Namihei originally thought that things would proceed as smoothly as before.

The result was a series of setbacks, ultimately leading to failure and the death of his old friend's eldest grandson.

Moreover, he witnessed the entire process remotely from the other end of the phone.

Abe Namihei felt extremely ashamed about this.

Especially now, even though they know that the mastermind behind the murderer is that guy named Lin Yi, they still haven't been able to find any evidence and can't use official power to avenge Shantou Xingzhu.

The other party committed murder. Why did the other party commit murder?

There is no plausible excuse for this problem, and even the embassy, ​​which has always been tough on China, said it was unable to help.

This made Abe Namihei feel even more guilty towards his old friend.

Before he could even apologize, Yamato Mitsuru spoke up first: "Abe-kun, I'm sorry, I've disappointed you this time."

"Yamato-kun, don't say that."

Abe Namihei hurriedly helped up Yamazumi Mitsuru, who was about to bow to him again: "I should be the one apologizing. I'm really sorry about Kosuke's matter."

Yamato Mitsuru reached out and helped him up again, saying resolutely, "Abe-kun, please don't take this to heart."

"Kosuke was a samurai. It was a blessing that he didn't die of old age in his sickbed."

At this point, Shan Touman's voice became louder.

They didn't mention at all how aggrieved Changsun's death was.

There was no trace of a struggle at the crime scene. Everyone who saw the scene knew that Yamato Kosuke was stabbed to death.

There was absolutely no resistance.

Abe Namihei also saw the scene and knew this as well.

But of course, he couldn't expose his old friend's boasting at this point.

He patted his old friend's arm heavily to comfort him.

Abe Namihei asked, "Yamato-kun, when is Kosuke returning to his hometown?"

"No, I want to bury him in Shanghai."

Shantou shook his head, his gaze resolute: "In the near future, he will witness how the empire completely conquers this land!"

These words instantly stirred Abe Namihei's emotions: "Yamato-kun, this will definitely come true!"

……

The following day, Shantou Xingzhu's farewell ceremony was held.

The Hongkou Dojo was draped in white mourning clothes.

With a prosthetic ear attached, Yamato Kosuke lay peacefully in his coffin, receiving the final farewell from the living.

People arrived one after another to pay their respects.

Offer wreaths, bow, and comfort the bereaved family.

The entire process was calm and solemn, yet tinged with a hint of sadness.

Two Koreans, who had specially shaved their beards for hygiene, solemnly entered the temple in this dignified atmosphere.

They offered silk and money, and left two pseudonyms.

His fluent Northeastern Mandarin accent did not arouse the slightest suspicion.

As for the bomb wrapped around his waist under his somewhat loose suit, it was completely concealed.

Even the wreaths containing the bomb were carried into the memorial hall.

Seeing this, the two Koreans exchanged a glance and saw the determination in each other's eyes.

This will be a collective farewell ceremony.

The effort to save Goryeo will begin a new chapter starting today...
