The ship is a cargo ship with a displacement of 1,200 tons.
It's very dilapidated. There are rust everywhere.
When Zhang Yong got on the ship, he saw that the cable was almost broken and the gangway was about to collapse.
If it weren't for the short distance from Wusongkou to Chongming Island, Zhang Yong would not dare to sit there.
Capsize at any time.
Any level 8 storm can overturn it.
The sea is ruthless!
People are more complex.
There are crew members, anti-Japanese elements, and puppet Manchu police.
A brief gun battle broke out. There were casualties. The casualties were all traitors from the puppet Manchukuo.
As soon as the gun was fired, the anti-Japanese elements on the ship immediately launched a riot, snatched weapons, and cooperated internally and externally. Finally, they successfully rescued everyone and launched a counterattack at the same time.
If Shi Bingdao hadn't arrived in time and stopped them, all the traitors would have been beaten to death.
Well, I don't want to waste bullets. Use a bayonet. Use a gun butt.
"There are no anti-Japanese elements."
"Only those who fled."
"They are all refugees."
Zhang Yong quickly characterized the main groups on the ship.
It's not okay for you to publicly declare that you are an anti-Japanese element. Chiang Kai-shek doesn't like this title.
Especially if the anti-Japanese elements inside may have a relationship with the Red Party, it would be even worse. Maybe they would all be arrested as Red Party members and then shot. Chiang Kai-shek had been lingering in the northwest for many days, and he was probably planning what to do.
Destroy the Northern Shaanxi Red Army.
Boat to Chongming Island.
There is no regular pier here. It is impossible to dock.
Zhang Yong took a small sampan ashore and went to find the Red Party people.
I quickly found Lu Yan and Dong Lieyang, but I didn't see Mo He. They said they were on a mission.
"Team Leader Zhang, you came in a hurry..."
"I have sent you five hundred fresh troops."
"What?"
"More than 500 anti-Japanese elements came from the Northeast."
"real?"
"Of course. The boat is right on the shore."
"Are there any weapons?"
"Only those of the traitorous policemen of Manchukuo that were captured."
"And there are traitors?"
"right."
Zhang Yong briefly explained the situation.
Lu Yan and Dong Lieyang's expressions gradually became serious.
Obviously, this is a big deal.
"There are no hidden spies. But I don't know if there are hidden traitors." Zhang Yong reminded vaguely.
There are no red dots on the entire ship, indicating that there are no Japanese invaders lurking.
However, Zhang Yong could not guarantee whether all those anti-Japanese elements had no problems.
These are all people from the Red Party, and he is not prepared to interfere.
Man, I gave it to you. Weapons can also help solve the problem.
You decide for yourself the way forward.
I have suggestions, but they are just suggestions. I don’t force them, nor am I qualified to force them.
"Also, don't announce it to anyone."
"Low-key."
Zhang Yong gave special instructions.
He did not want the Red Party to make too much noise on Chongming Island.
This place is very close to Shanghai and Jinling. If there is an armed activity by the Red Party, it will definitely be on this side of the bed, and no one will be allowed to snore.
The Songhu Security Headquarters will definitely send people to encircle and suppress them.
Not necessary.
The Marco Polo Bridge Incident is about to happen.
If you have internal strife, it will only make the national defense force weaker.
"clear."
Lu Yan nodded and said there was no problem.
She vaguely told Zhang Yong that the instructions from her superiors were also to keep a low profile and lurk, focusing on survival.
Simply discuss.
Unload immediately.
Except for the crew who was driving the boat, everyone else got off the boat.
After everyone left the ship, Zhang Yong quietly released some ammunition on the ship. There were various types of ammunition.
In addition to tens of thousands of rounds of ammunition, there are also hundreds of mortar shells.
All ammunition was emptied.
Anyway, the system will be supplemented. It doesn’t matter.
"Dong Lieyang."
"exist."
"The ammunition on the ship is also given to you."
"good."
Dong Lieyang suddenly grinned.
He thought that the ammunition was brought with the ship. There was no doubt about it.
So much ammunition!
He's never seen it before!
"Farewell."
"Goodbye."
After moving the ammunition, Zhang Yong took his people and took a cargo ship back to Wusongkou Pier.
The crew members responsible for driving the ship were all gathered together.
"You may be remembered by the Japanese invaders." Zhang Yong said bluntly.
The crew members were a little nervous.
Zhang Yong took out a stack of blank German visas.
One piece per person.
Fill in your own information.
Post a photo.
"With this visa, you will be able to travel through the concession without hindrance."
Zhang Yong solved their worries.
At the same time, I have some vague thoughts in my mind.
"What about the ship?"
The leader of the boat asked hurriedly.
His name is Cheng Jushu. It just so happens that he has the same name.
He was all swarthy and did not hide the fact that he had been a pirate.
Of course Zhang Yong can think of it. These guys are definitely not good people. If they were ordinary people, how could they be attracted by Lin Xiaoyan and others and do such a thing?
That's all a head-on business!
"Or, you guys can continue to help me." Zhang Yong said slowly, "Responsible for walking the Yangtze River waterway?"
"Take the inland river?" Cheng Jushu seemed a little disdainful.
"Trace back to Chongqing."
"dislike."
"Mounting machine tools."
"Where does the shipment start?"
"right here."
"Then what's in it for us?"
"You can use the name of the Fuxing Society's Secret Service."
"oh?"
Cheng Jushu suddenly felt energetic.
He likes this identity. He is even a little obsessed with it.
After all, as pirates, what they look forward to most is to be "recruited" one day.
Transform into a uniformed being.
"how?"
"Okay, I'll follow you."
"What about the rest?"
"Definitely willing."
Cheng Jushu waved his hand without thinking.
As expected, others are also coveting it. Who doesn’t like joining the establishment?
Zhang Yong then set a task for them, which was to transport supplies from Wusongkou Wharf to Chongqing and hand them over to Li Boqi, who would receive them.
At the same time, they quickly requested a dozen field service certificates from Shanghai Station and filled in their names.
He is now temporarily in charge of the work of the entire Fuxing Society Secret Service and recruiting a dozen people temporarily, which is of course no problem.
What's more, I got a cargo ship for no reason!
Although it's dilapidated, it's still fine as long as you don't go out to the Pacific Ocean and walk along the Yangtze River Channel.
It can be said to be an unexpected surprise.
The transportation problem that I had no clue about before was solved in this way.
Got his own boat.
Ready to ship.
Beautiful...
His eyes turned to the German freighter next to him.
His eyes began to narrow.
The German submarine seemed to have stopped moving for the time being. So Paulus and the others began to pretend not to recognize themselves again.
Sure enough, no matter which country you are from, all interests come first. Any kind of friendship is bullshit.
It just so happened that I returned to Shanghai. I needed to make some money.
Come to the inspection team office.
First, call back to the Ji'e Lane headquarters. Li Jingzhi happened to answer the phone.
"It's you……"
"It's me. I have something to ask you."
"go ahead."
"Is there still the German submarine radio signal that I paid attention to before?"
"Yes. It is sent on time every day. But the number is very messy and we have no clue at all."
"It doesn't matter. You can study it slowly when you have time. How many signals are there?"
"Three. Every morning, three signals are sent out. But at other times, they are intermittent."
"I understand. Thank you."
Zhang Yong hung up the phone.
It seems that the German submarine did not escape too far.
Three signals. That's three submarines.
Maybe in the South China Sea?
They should be actively communicating with the Japanese to eliminate the misunderstanding. Once the misunderstanding is eliminated, they will launch the attack again.
That's no problem. You can go and extort money. It will make a banging sound.
"Yuan Zheng!"
"arrive."
"Send someone to inform the Germans that I have an emergency to tell them."
"yes."
Yuan Zheng immediately sent someone.
Soon after, a marked white spot came off the boat.
Sure enough, it was Paulus again.
The diplomat who remains unchanged for thousands of years.
The map shows that the gentleman in the wheelchair is still on the freighter.
"open."
Paulus came to Zhang Yong.
It can be seen that he is not too nervous. He probably feels that there is no danger for the time being.
"I have something to tell you."
"Please say."
"I also need a batch of Somi submachine guns."
"Why?"
"there is a need."
Zhang Yong didn't explain. He just said that he needed it.
Just tell me whether to give it or not.
Yes, we will continue to cooperate and continue to provide you with news in the future.
If you don't give it, then pull it down and scatter them in one shot.
Anyway, you are safe for now.
"Is there something going on?" Paulus was very alert.
"No." Zhang Yong denied.
"There must be something going on." Paulus was suspicious.
"Really not." Zhang Yong shook his head.
What's going on? You're overthinking it. I'm just ripping you off.
Now try to dig out all the supplies on the German freighter as much as possible. If it is really sunk, the loss will not be big.
It doesn't matter if a person dies. He doesn't need people. What he needs is materials.
"Zhang, if there is an emergency, you must help us." Paulus became anxious instead.
The more Zhang Yong denied it, the more he believed there was something fishy behind it.
They were also bystanders of what happened on the pier. There was a shootout here last night. Something must have happened.
"Really do not have……"
"One hundred somi."
"You Germans have a secret envoy who has arrived in Shanghai. He is having secret discussions with the Japanese Consul General in Shanghai, Akiyama Shigekui."
Zhang Yong speaks freely.
One hundred somi? Too little. I want more.
Just make up some information, believe it or not.
"special envoy?"
"It seems so. My informant told me."
"will be……"
Paulus was lost in thought.
I feel increasingly uneasy inside.
"actually……"
Zhang Yong began to whet his appetite.
Want to cover up...
No. It's playing hard to get.
"What?"
"I can introduce you to San Francisco. You can ask American warships to escort you."
"Zhang, what exactly did you hear?"
"Mr. Paulus, I really haven't heard anything. I just suggest from my conscience that you leave here as soon as possible. Otherwise..."
"Otherwise what..."
"nothing."
"Zhang, tell me quickly. We need to know!"
"I……"
"Three hundred Somi submachine guns! Three hundred!"
"Unconfirmed news is that a cargo ship flying the Czech flag is passing through the Strait of Malacca. The British discovered that you Germans were on board..."
"who?"
"They are armed. They don't look like ordinary people. They also have the skull and crossbones flag."
"Damn it! Gestapo! It's the Waffen Guards!"
"Mr. Paulus, you may be overthinking. This is all unconfirmed news. It should not be true..."
"Zhang, we need to get out of here. As soon as possible."
"It's not necessary. You will be safe here in the short term. Or, you can set sail immediately for San Francisco..."
"No. We have to go ashore. We have to go to Chengdu."
"this……"
Zhang Yong scratched his head.
Seems like it’s gone too far?
I just want to extort some benefits. But I seem to have stepped on the Germans' tail?
There's no need to be so nervous, right?
real……
Not necessary.
The SS and the skull and crossbones flag are all nonsense from me.
By the way, in the German army, which division does the skull and crossbones flag represent? It seems that its combat effectiveness is very terrifying. One can defeat ten.
Is there a skull and crossbones flag now?
don't know.
But looking at Paulus's appearance, he seemed very nervous indeed.
In other words, the skull and crossbones flag was a big shock to them. When they heard about the special envoy, they were not that nervous. When they heard about the skull and crossbones flag, they couldn't sit still.
Strange, what does the skull and crossbones flag mean at this time? Is it so intimidating?
"Tomorrow, we will start retreating tomorrow."
"So anxious?"
"Tomorrow morning! Seven o'clock!"
"this……"
Zhang Yong scratched his head.
Looking at Cheng Jushu's freighter next to him.
Okay, seamless.
Get off the German freighter, go up to the giant tree freighter, then enter the Yangtze River estuary, and go upstream to Chongqing.
At that time, a cargo ship with a displacement of 1,200 tons could barely reach the Chaotianmen Pier in Chongqing. Of course, it could not be fully loaded. It was probably loaded with half of the cargo.
Because it is a freighter and powered by machinery, there is no danger when passing through the Three Gorges.
Generally speaking, it is safe to take the Yangtze River waterway.
After arriving in Chongqing, we disembarked and then went to Chengdu by land. The rest of the journey was arranged by Li Boqi.
Putting Li Boqi in Chongqing in advance was just for convenience.
"All right."
Zhang Yong agreed.
Paulus hurried back to make arrangements.
Soon, 300 Somi submachine guns were sent out. But there were no bullets.
Sure enough, at this moment, the Germans were still playing tricks quietly. They only gave guns but not bullets. If they wanted bullets, they had to provide additional conditions.
But it's okay.
Zhang Yong himself has bullets.
It's enough.
Yuan Zheng led people up to hand over the matter.
Three hundred, one is a lot.
The quality is enviable. It’s a fine product at first glance.
However, it is precisely because the quality is so good and the workmanship requirements are so high that the cost is also high.
In the end, its output was very low. It was completely incomparable to Bobosa. Bobosa seemed to have produced millions of pieces. It was equipped by the entire Soviet regiment and battalion.
In a sense, quantity is also quality!
Assign weapons.
Give fifteen to Cheng Jushu and others as self-defense weapons.
Now that you have become a member of the Fuxing Society's Secret Service, you must be equipped with weapons to avoid being "inspected" by others along the way.
These days, the most profitable thing is all kinds of inspections.
They specialize in checking others and then protecting themselves. There are often ghosts and ghosts among each other.
During the busy period, Yuan Zheng suddenly arrived and stopped talking.
"What's up?"
"Commissioner, a woman gave you a gift..."
"who?"
"She said her name was Qin Longyue..."
"who?"
Zhang Yong had some vague impressions.
After thinking about it, I remembered it. It seemed like a beautiful dancer on the beach.
Previously, Du Yuesheng and Huang Huangrong gave themselves two gorgeous dancers. One of them had this name.
What's the other one's name? Oops. I forgot. I have no impression.
She actually called to find herself?
Could it be that you are alone in an empty room and feel lonely? Are you so eager to come to the house by yourself?
Nonsense!
He is not a womanizer.
Unless someone else delivers it to your door.
In fact, his life is boring.
No family.
No family.
No entertainment.
The standard starting point is the orphanage.
At most, I just need to find a woman to balance the yin and yang. People are addicted to food. There seems to be nothing to describe.
Therefore, he knew about the sensual and erotic scenes in Shanghai, but he had never tried it himself.
He is usually busy catching spies.
go dance?
Sorry for wasting time.
It's better to catch a few more spies and get money out of your pocket.
Unexpectedly, a dancer would actively look for me.
Really...
In many spy dramas, there is a dancing girl character.
Various styles.
Understand everything.
Endless love.
But in the end, it's often just to protect the protagonist and die.
He has no interest in such a role.
I don't like tragedy.
"Where's the gift?"
"it's here."
Yuan Zheng presented a brocade box.
It's not an ordinary brocade box. It seems to be handmade?
Very beautiful.
Very detailed.
It's a pity that Zhang Yong doesn't know how to appreciate it.
To him, art is like eating peonies. No matter how beautiful it is, it is not as practical as money.
Unless it can be sold immediately and converted into cash.
Open it. It's empty inside.
Oh, it's not empty. It's a business card.
He reached out and picked it up. He found that the name on it was Qin Longyue.
incredible.
A dancer actually has a business card?
etc!
He, Zhang Yong, seems to have none.
There are no Western-style business cards and no Chinese-style greeting cards.
There is no sense of ceremony.
There is only a phone number on the business card, but no address.
So I called the phone number.
"Hello……"
"Are you Qin Longyue?"
"Who are you?"
"I am Zhang Yong!"
Zhang Yong is straightforward.
Talking about feelings? Sorry. It hurts money.
What about money?
This can be done!
"Oh. It turns out to be the Commissioner. I'll ask her to answer the phone right away."
"hurry up."
Zhang Yong doesn't like waiting for women.
Even the most beautiful woman is not worth waiting for.
Fortunately, the other party quickly replaced him.
A graceful voice came. It was pleasant and sweet. It was indeed someone who had been trained for a long time.
What?
natural?
Nonsense!
She is a dancer!
It was the former Yangzhou Shou Ma.
They are all professionally trained and as perfect as possible in every aspect.
"Hello, Mr. Commissioner..."
"You're looking for me? What's the matter?"
"The little girl admires the Commissioner..."
"The Japanese hate me deeply. If you come close to me, you will die without a burial place."
"Commissioner, please don't scare the little girl..."
"I'm not scaring you. If you have anything to do with me, you may die at any time. Or it may be worse than death."
"Little lady..."
"You should think it over yourself. Don't blame me for hurting you in the future."
"The little girl has made up her mind..."
"Since you are not afraid of death, then come to Wusongkou Pier."
