Heroes of the Anti-Japanese War

Chapter 437 Ogasawara's ferocious side [-]
The Junkers 86 landed at Beiping Xijiao Airport and Hankou Wangjiadun Airport to refuel before finally landing at the Japanese Dayingshan Airport in Haikou.

The eyes of the Japanese are now focused on the Malay Peninsula, so the importance of Hainan Island is becoming more and more prominent.

Now Hainan Island is almost dominated by the Japanese Navy. The Fifth Fleet is stationed here, and there are still five Japanese marines.

The Japanese Air Force also has two air teams.Aircraft flying from here can cover half of the South China Sea.

On the plane, Qian Xiaobao took off his cotton coat and put on a single shirt, then got off the plane with a backpack on his back.

Qian Xiaobao stood on the airport and looked around, and all he saw was green.

The southernmost place where he grew up so big was when he was in Shanghai. It was the first time he had seen that kind of tall tree with a bare trunk and leaves only on the top.

After questioning the Japanese soldiers at the airport, Qian Xiaobao rushed to the headquarters of the Japanese Army's Hainan Dispatch Team.

Ma Yuanjiunosuke of the dispatch team was very happy when he heard that the poppy cream had been delivered.

"I have already received a telegram from the base camp. There is only one brigade of the army on Hainan Island. We have received a barrel of poppy cream, and the other eight barrels will be distributed to the navy and air force." Ma Yuanjiuzhisuke said.

"I also want to send a bucket of poppy paste to Changjiang. How far is it from Changjiang?" Qian Xiaobao asked.

"Two hundred kilometers," Ma Yuanjiuzhisuke replied.

After a night's flight, Qian Xiaobao didn't feel tired lying in the cabin all the time. It was still in the morning, and if he took a car for [-] kilometers, he would arrive in Changjiang without getting dark.

"Sir, can you send a car to take me and the bucket of poppy paste to Changjiang?" Qian Xiaobao asked.

"Do you want to go to Changjiang by car?" Ma Yuan Jiuzhisuke asked in surprise.

"Why, is there no way?" Qian Xiaobao replied.

"There are roads, but more than half of them are mountain roads, with forests on both sides. What if the guerrillas ambushed? You can't run even if you want to. Now the army is cooperating with the marines to carry out the Yasi operation to wipe out the anti-Japanese armed forces, but with the current Thousands of people are simply not enough, even tenfold increase is not enough, there are forests everywhere, it is too difficult." Ma Yuanjiuzhizhu said helplessly.

Qian Xiaobao understood immediately.The biggest problem for the anti-Japanese troops in the Northeast is not fighting the Japanese but dealing with the damn weather and lack of food.

And here, even if there is no food, you will not starve to death, let alone freeze to death.The Japanese are coming, just go into the vast forest and hide.

"Can't go by land, is there an airport in Changjiang?" Qian Xiaobao asked.

"Changjiang doesn't have one, but there is an airport in Basho more than 50 kilometers away from Changjiang. I contacted the Air Force to send you a small plane to take you to Basho. It is not safe for the Junkers 86 to land at a small airport." Ma Yuanjiuzhisuke said.

"Thank you, sir!" Qian Xiaobao said standing at attention.

"You're welcome, it's all for the empire. Especially you brought the poppy paste, we will have money with these things." Ma Yuanjiuzhisuke said with a smile.

Less than two years after the Japanese army occupied Hainan Island, their foothold was not stable.Many materials have to be purchased locally, but in the long run, we cannot just rely on looting.

The local people neither believed in the original coins of the Republic of China nor the Japanese currency. Gold and silver, such as Yuan Datou, are fine, but where can you get Yuan Datou?

Well now, poppy paste can be used as currency, so everyone is willing to accept it, and it is easy to divide according to the value of the item when buying and selling.

This situation can only exist in China, a place full of heavy smokers.

Qian Xiaobao took a short rest after having lunch at the Army Dispatch Team Headquarters. In the afternoon, Colonel Ma Yuan Jiuzhizhu sent someone to inform him that he had arranged a plane to go directly to Dayingshan Airport.

Qian Xiaobao rushed to the airport with his luggage, and a ki-57 transport plane had already parked on the runway.

After Qian Xiaobao showed his ID, he asked the people at the airport to send two people to help him move the remaining bucket of poppy paste to the Ki-57 transport plane.

Qian Xiaobao was surprised to find that there was already a bucket of poppy paste on the transport plane!

A naval lieutenant sitting in the cabin smiled and said to Qian Xiaobao: "You transported the poppy cream from Manchukuo, right? I'm going to send this barrel of poppy cream to the Eighth Institute."

Sitting opposite the lieutenant, Qian Xiaobao found out after questioning that the Japanese navy had divided the entire Hainan Island into five areas and five marines were in charge.

The place where the lieutenant is going is the Hachisho Hokari area in charge of the [-]th Special Marine Corps of the Yokosuka tutelary prefecture.This area includes Changjiang where Qian Xiaobao is going.

"Now the railway is being built from Basuo to Shilu, Changjiang. There are more than 50 kilometers of people along the road. But in the past, at least dozens of people were needed to protect you. Those guerrillas disappeared into the forest after a few shots. Trouble Very!" said the lieutenant.

"Are there many people working in Changjiang?" Qian Xiaobao asked.

"A lot, I heard there are tens of thousands of people." The lieutenant replied.

The plane took off and flew to the eight institutes [-] kilometers away.This time it landed an hour later.

Eight airports had been telegraphed that a military truck was parked right next to the runway.

Watching the oil drums being carried onto the truck by several soldiers, the Navy lieutenant smiled and said to Qian Xiaobao: "I wish you the best of luck, from now on you will be fighting mosquitoes and snakes!"

Hachisuo is a port in the southwest corner of Hainan Island. The Japanese are stepping up construction so that Hachisuo Port can berth large cargo ships and warships.

As the truck headed north along the road, many dark-skinned people with only cloth wrapped around their waists could be seen cutting down trees along the road with machetes in hand.

Qian Xiaobao asked the soldiers on the truck to know that the Li people who were forced to work by the Japanese were preparing for the construction of the railway.

From Basuo to Changjiang and then to Shilu Town, the truck turned south and headed towards Jinniuling.The short journey of more than 50 kilometers took the truck for more than three hours.

The sun had already set, and Qian Xiaobao looked into the distance and saw little lights.

"The power station was built first, just to be able to work day and night!" A soldier explained to Qian Xiaobao.

On the side of the road are stretches of thatched sheds, with grass covers on them and air leakage around them.This is where tens of thousands of people who work in the Shilu Iron Mine live.

The truck drove directly to the two-story office building of Shilu Iron Mine.

Before Qian Xiaobao got out of the car, he heard a fierce quarrel coming from inside.

"I am the head of the Suzu Fertilizer Co., Ltd., does the plan approved by the headquarters not count?"

"According to the original plan is too slow, the empire can't wait any longer! We must modify the plan to speed up the progress!"

"According to your idea, it is too wasteful to pick and choose the best place to mine the best place! This is the best iron ore. You are committing a crime by doing so!"

"I am the representative sent by the army here, everything must be carried out according to my opinion!"

Qian Xiaobao is too familiar with the voice of one of them, who is this person not Ogasawara?
