Chapter 1028 What fish did you take to break the net
Five days later, the convoy set off for the third time.
Early the next morning, the garrison a few kilometers away from the pharmaceutical factory moved into action.
A regiment of troops carrying artillery came towards the pharmaceutical factory in a mighty manner.
"Captain, the pharmaceutical factory is surrounded by the garrison!" The commando leader who stayed behind at the pharmaceutical factory rushed into Li Hao's office and reported with confusion and worry.
"Have you negotiated with them?" Li Hao asked with a serious face.
"I asked the leader of the team and he said that he was acting under orders. From now on, the pharmaceutical factory is only allowed in but not allowed out." The team leader nodded and replied.
Li Hao's face became even more serious: "I knew they wouldn't let us retreat easily. I immediately sent a telegram to Captain Xiao who was escorting the car. Today's situation is a bit special, so the troops should be on heightened alert, especially when marching at night. Report any situation immediately.
"
The radio station was installed in Li Hao's office. After Zhou Liang received the order, he activated the radio station and started transmitting.
The squad leader stood aside and asked anxiously: "Captain, what should we do? It's impossible to keep the garrison outside all the time, right?"
"After they arrived, the remaining soldiers in the garrison immediately became panic-stricken, and there were even rumors that Chongqing was going to forcibly take over the pharmaceutical factory."
"Don't worry!" Li Hao forced himself to calm down and asked after thinking for a while.
"Are you ready with everything I asked you to prepare?"
The squad leader quickly replied: "We are ready, we just need to connect the detonator."
Li Hao made a decisive decision: "Pick up the detonators immediately. Put all the detonators on my desk and I will control them myself."
"If nothing unexpected happens, someone from the Military and Political Department will come over soon to give us an explanation as to why troops were sent to surround the pharmaceutical factory. Whether Captain Xiao, who escorted the car, can arrive in Xi'an safely as before. Whether we can push back the troops outside depends on this
A few detonators."
At noon, someone came from the Military and Political Department. It was the same major general who negotiated with the pharmaceutical company last time. He sat in front of Li Hao with a serious look on his face.
Without waiting for Li Hao to speak, he directly took out an order and explained straight to the point: "Director Li, we have received intelligence that the little Japanese agents lurking in Chongqing are preparing to launch a new sneak attack on the pharmaceutical factory."
"Due to the relocation, the pharmaceutical factory still has less than half of its guards, and half of the equipment in the pharmaceutical factory will soon be ours."
"In order to avoid accidents, Shangfeng decided to dispatch a group to guard the perimeter of the pharmaceutical factory."
"But please rest assured, Director Li, they will never enter the pharmaceutical factory before completing the transaction."
Excuse……
A fool also knows that this is an excuse for the other party to send troops to surround the pharmaceutical factory.
But what the other party said was high-sounding, and the reasons were sufficient. No matter how dissatisfied Li Hao was, he could only hold it in, and then answered helplessly: "Then let them guard outside the pharmaceutical factory."
Seeing Li Hao's defeat, the corners of the major general's mouth visibly raised, flashing a proud smile as if his plot had succeeded.
Although it disappeared quickly, it still did not escape Li Hao's eyes.
My heart skipped a beat, and I realized that sending troops to surround the pharmaceutical factory was just the opponent's first move, and there would definitely be a second move waiting for me.
The frown that was already frowning deepened now, and he racked his brains to think about the problems that the pharmaceutical company might face next.
At eight o'clock in the evening, just after Li Hao finished his meal, the radio station in his office rang.
After receiving the telegram, Zhou Liang's face became obviously solemn, and without saying a word, he handed the telegram directly to Li Hao.
Just by glancing at the contents of the telegram, Li Hao showed an expression of sudden realization on his face. He finally figured out the other party's second trick. He was no longer a blind man's cage, waiting in the office to worry.
With dissatisfaction, he threw the telegram to the major general opposite and asked coldly: "General Wang, what does this mean?"
"It was made very clear during the negotiations that you must ensure that the convoy reaches Xi'an safely. Is this your guarantee? Directly send troops to intercept the convoy?"
"It must have happened for a reason?" the major general replied with a smile, without showing any expression of surprise. It was obvious that he had known about this for a long time.
After a few seconds, he deliberately pretended to be enlightened and replied: "I remembered."
"We received intelligence last night that your convoy carried a large amount of contraband. This morning, Shangfeng issued a special order to the troops stationed along the route, asking them to set up checkpoints and conduct routine inspections of the convoy. It was definitely not an intentional interception."
"As long as we are sure that there are no contraband in the convoy and the intelligence we received is wrong, the convoy can continue to move forward."
"Don't worry, Director Li. Shangfeng has arranged for two main groups to go over for inspection. As long as you cooperate, the convoy can continue to move forward in half an hour at most."
When talking about the two regiments, General Wang's tone obviously became more serious, and the threat could not be more obvious.
Li Hao asked coldly: "What if I don't agree to your inspection?"
The smile on the major general's face quickly disappeared, and when Li Hao looked at him, he replied seriously: "Then the convoy will not be able to leave."
"When will you agree to the inspection and when will the troops release it?"
"Checking contraband is originally the responsibility of the local troops. The team should cooperate with it both emotionally and rationally. Even if this matter is spread, the rationale is on our side. I hope Director Li will consider it carefully."
"Don't think about it!" Li Hao replied decisively.
"Your people must not get close to the convoy, otherwise all our previous negotiations will be invalidated, and you will not get any of the equipment in the pharmaceutical factory, let alone the penicillin production formula."
"Then it's not up to you!" The serious expression on the major general's face was slowly covered by murderous aura.
"Director Li, you are so afraid of us approaching the convoy. I have reason to believe that there must be contraband in the convoy."
"If you don't agree, we can only force it."
"You dare!" Li Hao retorted sharply, and a strong murderous intention could be clearly felt in his words.
The major general seemed to have anticipated this scene and replied with a sneer.
"There's nothing I dare not do."
"As long as it is confirmed that there are contraband in the convoy, your pharmaceutical factory's charge of reselling arms will be confirmed. At that time, whether you are willing or not, we can take away the entire pharmaceutical factory."
"Don't forget the troops outside that have surrounded the pharmaceutical factory. They are ready to take over the pharmaceutical factory at any time."
Li Hao thoroughly understood the opponent's plan.
He asked with murderous intent: "General Wang, your plan is very careful, but you have forgotten one thing, we can also kill the fish and defeat the net, leaving you with nothing in the end."
"The fish is dead and the net is broken?" A mocking smile appeared on the major general's face.
Looking at Li Hao, he asked: "One of our main regiment's troops is guarding outside, and there is another main regiment on the way a few kilometers away."
"The entire pharmaceutical factory is surrounded by us. We can only enter but not exit. What can you do to fight us to the death?"
"And your convoy, we have two main groups there, what are you trying to do?"
"If we really take action, you will not only be killed by us immediately, but you will also be charged with rebellion."
