Heroes of the Anti-Japanese War

Chapter 148 Looking for Potato Sky One
The train stops on the platform of Harbin Railway Station.

All the senior officials of the Kwantung Army Intelligence Department stood on the platform and waited.

From the looks of it, they must be preparing to receive an important person.

The door opened, and a smiling man in military uniform stepped off the train.

It seems that his military rank is only a lieutenant commander, but the intelligence department of the Kwantung Army, from Major General Qin Yansaburo to the next group of senior officers, stepped forward to welcome him warmly.

The person who got off the train was Hara Otomio who vaguely had the reputation of the father of the armored vehicles of the Empire of Japan.

"I really don't dare to take it, I'd better go back and look at the information." Yuan Otomisheng said.

All the generals and officers got on the car and went to the intelligence department of the Kwantung Army.

The Intelligence Department of the Kwantung Army has just obtained valuable information on a large batch of armored vehicles from the 183 factory in Kharkov.

After hearing the news, Otomi Hara rushed to Harbin from Japan to watch.

The reason why the Intelligence Department of the Kwantung Army did not send these valuable materials to Japan was out of selfishness.

The Kwantung Army even wanted to build its own armored vehicle factory in Manchukuo to produce the most advanced armored vehicles.

In the following days, Hara Otomi watched a large amount of information on Soviet fast tanks and heavy tanks t-35 in the intelligence department of the Kwantung Army.

Misao Hara was very interested in the replacement of riveting technology by Soviet tanks with welding and the aero-engines used on tanks.

"How did you get so many valuable materials?" Hara Otomi asked curiously.

But the Kwantung Army's intelligence department all smiled and remained silent.

Schultz received a notification from his superiors on the radio asking him to pick up the mail package.

He knew that the new telegraph and code book given to him by his superiors had arrived.

There are many shops selling second-hand goods in Baza City.People in the Northeast call such things "broken children"

Schultz walked into a shop selling second-hand books in Baza City.

The bookshelves in the shop are filled with all kinds of books.There are also a lot of used foreign documents in it, which should have been brought by Russians or Jews who fled to Harbin.

"Sir, which book do you want to buy?" The shopkeeper approached and asked.

"I want to buy a famous book in Latin, do you have it here?" Schultz asked.

Although there are foreigners from many countries in Harbin.But those who can speak Latin are very few after all.Bookstores in Harbin hardly sell Latin books.

The shopkeeper was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and said, "Sir, it's a coincidence that you came here! A few days ago, a gentleman put a Latin book in a small shop for consignment. You came in just two days!"

Schultz resisted his excitement and asked, "Can you show me?"

"Yes, of course I can! That old gentleman's bid is too high. He won't sell it for less than 50 yuan." The shopkeeper replied.

"As long as I like it, I'm willing to pay a high price." Schultz said.

When the shopkeeper heard what Schultz said, he happily moved the ladder and took down a dilapidated book from the top of the bookshelf.

"Is this Dante's Divine Comedy?" Schultz asked.

"Yes, yes! It's called Qu. It's better to know the goods, sir!" said the shopkeeper.

Two days ago, an old man insisted on putting this broken book here for consignment.And the old man also claimed that less than 50 yuan will not be sold.The shopkeeper of the bookstore reluctantly accepted the book for the sake of not losing money even if it could not be sold.

Unexpectedly, two days later, someone came to buy the book.If the book is sold, the shopkeeper will get a [-]% commission.

Schultz took the book and flipped through it. After careful confirmation, he raised his head and said to the shopkeeper, "I bought this book!"

Schultz, who walked out of the bookstore with a book under his arm, bid farewell to the shopkeeper who happily sent him out and walked back to the clinic quickly.

He closed the doors and windows and lowered the curtains, then opened the worn-out copy of "Dante's Divine Comedy", and used a sharp scalpel to pry open the hard cover and found a parcel slip inside.

The next day Schultz appeared again in the luggage room of the Three Trees train station.He received a large package with a parcel slip.

Schultz knew that what was inside was the telegraph that his superiors wanted to give him.

Now, in order to ensure his safety, the superiors began to contact him in this non-contact way.

And from the moment I received the telegraph machine, I could only contact by telegram.

Treating the pages of "Dante's Divine Comedy" with potion Schultz copied down the frequency and call sign and contact time of the radio station and the entire code book.

That night, Schultz used the frequency and call sign given by his superior to contact his superior at the specified time.

Schultz quickly copied a coded message.

After translating with the codebook, a line in Russian appeared on the white paper: Alexander Doroshenko, tank engineer.Confirmed defection.Find his whereabouts as soon as possible.

Below is Doroshenko's age and simple appearance.

Schultz struck a match and burned the translated message and hid the telegraph.

Schultz is thinking that it is very likely that intelligence teams in Northeast China and even in Japan are looking for this Doroshenko.

Even if they know that the Japanese have emptied out Doroshenko's head, the superior must find him!
And now I have no other way except to find someone through Qian Xiaobao.

When the senior officials of the Kwantung Army asked Hara Otomio about the design, manufacture and use of tanks in frigid regions, especially jungle areas, Hara Otomio insisted on knowing the source of the Soviet tank technical data he had just seen.

He had a faint feeling in his heart that the Kwantung Army Intelligence Department still hid a lot from him.

Finally, the Kwantung Army Commander Ueda Kenji finally ordered the Kwantung Army Intelligence Department to tell Hara Otomi the source of the intelligence.

"A senior engineer from the Kharkov 183 factory in the Soviet Union was guided by our intelligence personnel to escape to Manchuria when he was testing a new type of tank in the Far East." Qin Yansaburo said to Hara Otomisheng.

"So that's the case! I want to see him right away!" Hara Otomi said excitedly.

Qin Yansaburo had no choice but to agree.

As a senior engineer, Doroshenko is very young, only in his 30s.

"Have you seen our tanks? What do you think?" Otomi Hara asked through a translator.

"I saw diesel engines on tanks. The Soviet army has also begun to experiment with diesel tanks. You have come to the front in this regard." Doroshenko replied.

"How about other aspects?" Hara Otomi asked eagerly.Several types of tanks equipped by the Kwantung Army are condensed with his hard work.

"It's too light, too thin. Maybe it can be penetrated without guns. These tanks are not suitable for mountains and jungles. If you take the Soviet army as your imaginary enemy, you will definitely be at a disadvantage in future wars." Doroshenko said frankly Said.

It is obvious that Doroshenko does not understand the implicitness of Orientals.

Although he defected from the Soviet Union.But he still maintains a kind of self-esteem and pride.
