Chapter 1459 We Are the Backbone
The cold star lights up the lamp, and the night sea guides navigation.
The Dongfeng ship sailed to the open sea, but didn't know where to go.
Gan Rong sighed, "Alas! All of our coastlines have been occupied by the Japanese. Where should the Dongfeng shipload of cultural relics be transported to?"
Qian Fu glanced at the steamship behind him and suggested:
"Lao Gan! How about asking the boss for instructions?"
Gan Rong nodded and said, "Okay! Ask in Bai language."
Qian Fu smiled bitterly and said, "My Bai language was taught by Ning Qiang, so it's not that fluent. Boss may not understand it, so you should speak it."
Gan Rong shook his head and said, "Why are you speaking the Bai dialect with a Shandong accent to Ning Qiang?"
After he finished speaking, he picked up the radio and asked in Bai language:
"Chief! Which way should the Dongfeng go?"
About one nautical mile aft, the steamer's wheelhouse.
Xiang Chu picked up the loudspeaker, thought for a moment and responded, "Drive south to Qiongya and go up the Nandu River. I will immediately contact Lao Feng of the Qiongya Corps and hand over this ship of cultural relics to them for safekeeping."
Gan Rong suggested: "Chief! Qiongya is currently occupied by the devils. Let's move the most precious cultural relics to the steamship first."
Xiang Chu nodded and said, "Okay! Get ready to dock."
"Yes!"
Gan Rong hurriedly accepted the order.
Liu Zhengxiong said in astonishment: "Chief! We have troops in Qiongya too?"
Xiang Chu scolded, "You are an old party member and you don't know this? You are so ignorant! Now in Qiongya, only our party's Qiongya Corps is fighting against the devils and puppet troops. Under the leadership of Lao Feng, it has grown to more than 5,000 people and eliminated thousands of devils and puppet troops, which has greatly dealt a heavy blow to the devil's arrogance."
Liu Zhengxiong immediately became unhappy and taunted:
"Old Feng! Are you familiar with him?"
Xiang Chu smiled and said, "Of course! Our cargo ships have delivered weapons, ammunition and medicinal materials to the Qiongya Corps many times. Xiaowan also trained medical soldiers for them. The Corps Captain Lao Feng called many times to express his gratitude."
Liu Zhengxiong smiled and said, "I see! If the ship carrying cultural relics is discovered by the Japanese this time, we can also go to Qiongya and fight guerrilla warfare with them."
Xiang Chu said angrily: "Old Liu! How can you say that these are our cultural relics that were stolen?"
"Wrong! I slap you in the face."
Liu Zhengxiong shouted and quickly slapped himself in the face.
Xiang Chu smiled and said, "I find that many things are God's will. Since the establishment of the army, our party has mainly relied on guerrilla warfare. It has accumulated rich guerrilla warfare experience for the anti-Japanese war behind enemy lines, and now it has become the mainstay of the anti-Japanese war."
Liu Zhengxiong said arrogantly, "Yes! We are the backbone. Chief! Send a telegram to Lao Feng quickly. The steamship is about to break down."
"What's Lao Feng's name?"
Xiang Chu wondered, sat down next to the radio, and sent a telegram to his master first.
Not long after, I received a call from my master: "Boy! Take it easy! The cultural relics ship has arrived at Yuxian Village in Nandujiang, and the Qiongya Corps will send someone to pick it up."
Xiang Chu shook his head and said, "Take it easy! Are you afraid that I will be exposed?"
The steamer approached the Dongfeng ship and began to trade in precious cultural relics.
Xiang Chu went up to the deck of the freighter and told Gan Rong:
"Lao Gan! When the Dongfeng arrives at Yuxian Village on the Nandu River, you will evacuate immediately, go to Haikou and board the Manxue, and sail directly to Manila."
"Yes!"
Gan Rong hurriedly accepted the order.
After the few precious cultural relics were traded, the two ships separated.
The Dongfeng steamer headed southwest and returned to Lamma Island.
Takase Agency, Central, Hong Kong Island.
Takase Ogura was scolding Ichiro Takei in the office.
"Zhuoji Ichiro! How could you argue with Ishita Mitsuo?"
Ichiro Tsukei said aggrievedly: "Head of the Office! He totally bullied me and slapped me twice."
Takase Ogura scolded: "He is a nobleman with the rank of colonel. It is your honor to slap you. If it weren't for the chief of this agency who blocked it for you, you would have been killed by him on the spot."
Ichiro Tsukei said bitterly, "Chief! I understand."
At this moment, the office phone rang.
Ichiro Tsukei answered the phone attentively, and after hearing one sentence, he said hurriedly:
"Chief! It's from the military police captain Inagata."
Takase Ogura picked up the phone and asked with a smile:
"Mr. Inaya! What's the matter that brings you to me so late?"
Inaya Tadashi said angrily, "Captain Takase! Where are those Chinese celebrities you arrested? Why haven't they been sent here yet? The military police have been waiting to execute them."
Takase Ogura was puzzled and said, "That's not right! Mitsuo Inoshita sent over a dozen Chinese celebrities in the evening."
Inaya Takashi said unhappily, "Chief Takase! Inoshita Mitsuo did not bring any Chinese celebrities with him. You should check it out right away! Where did he go?"
After saying this, he hung up the phone angrily.
Takase Ogura put down the phone and said in astonishment: "What happened to Inoshita Mitsuo? Why didn't he send the Chinese celebrity to the military police?"
Ichiro Tsukei said bitterly: "Chief! Ioshita Mitsuo must have put those Chinese celebrities on a cargo ship and brought them directly back to Japan."
Takase Ogura shook his head and said, "Impossible! Mitsuo Inoshita only wanted to bring back more cultural relics, how could he possibly bring back Chinese celebrities?"
Ichiro Tsukui laughed and said, "Mitsuo Ikushita sought fame by bringing Chinese celebrities back to his country, forcing them to paint, write poems and articles, and then plagiarizing them and presenting them as his own achievements."
Takase Ogura nodded and ordered, "Zhujing-kun! Take your men to Kowloon Pier 22 immediately, board the Dongfeng ship and conduct a thorough investigation, and transfer the Chinese celebrities to the military police."
Ichiro Tsukei smiled bitterly and said, "Chief! It's two o'clock in the morning now. I'm afraid I'll be shot dead by Mitsuo Jingxia if I go over there. Can you take people to investigate tomorrow morning?"
Takase Ogura looked at his watch and nodded, "Okay!"
Yenangyaung, Myanmar.
General Kenji Doihara led the regiment to the British 1st Division's headquarters.
He looked at his watch and saw that it was exactly two o'clock in the morning. He smiled and said:
"Oh my! Now is a great opportunity to annihilate the British army. Order the whole army to charge and destroy these ignorant Westerners in a night battle."
Ninagawa Nishiemon hurriedly dissuaded him, "General! You should ask for instructions from your superiors before taking any action!"
Doihara Xianer scolded: "Ask for permission!"
Doihara Suzuko said anxiously: "Uncle! You acted without asking for permission. If you win, it's fine. If you lose, you will be beaten back to your original form."
Doihara Kan'er listened to her more and ordered, "Nishiemon! Call Sakurai Yamazo and tell him that I will attack Yenangyaung overnight and destroy the British 1st Division."
"Hello!"
Ninagawa Nishiemon hurriedly took the order and sent a telegram.
Soon, a reply was received, reporting: "General! Division Commander Sakurai has decided to surround Yenangyaung but not attack. Our troops are not allowed to attack."
Doihara Ken'er said angrily: "Besiege but not attack? Don't wait for the Chinese Expeditionary Force to come to rescue? How stupid!"
Doihara Suzuko stepped forward and said weakly, "Uncle! Can you call back Takahashi Komasa's squadron?"
Doihara Kan'er asked in confusion, "Why did you ask Takahashi Komasa to come back? He is now responsible for blocking the China Expeditionary Force from joining the British 1st Division."
Ninagawa Nishiemon interrupted, "Your Excellency the General! Suzuko is afraid that Takahashi Komasa will not be able to stop the entire army from being wiped out."
Doihara Suzuko shook her head and said, "No! I want Takahashi Komasa to sleep with me tonight."
Doihara Xian'er was so angry that he yelled, "You...you are really making me mad!"
