Heroes of the Anti-Japanese War

Chapter 489 This Is The Chief's Intention One
The Sea King is the ship with the largest tonnage of the Manchukuo Maritime Police Force, and it was also converted from a merchant ship.There are no other weapons on board except for two 76mm anti-aircraft guns and a depth charge projector.

Because it is a warship converted from a merchant ship, the speed is very slow, and the maximum speed does not exceed ten knots.

The situation of the Sea Dragon and Haifeng is not much better than that of the Sea King.The three boats arrived in Shanghai slowly three days later.But from a long distance, I saw six large transport ships moored at Huangpu Wharf.

Nakamura Isao, the captain of the Hailong, ordered to slow down and stop slowly one nautical mile away from Huangpu Wharf.

But as soon as the three ships stopped on the Huangpu River, one of the six transport ships sent a light signal to let the three ships approach.

After confirming the light signal, Isao Nakamura ordered the Neptune to start and slowly approach the Whampoa Wharf.

As the Neptune stopped first and then started again, people resting in the cabin came out to observe the movement.

Qian Xiaobao and Hemoto Taro also walked out of the cabin and looked towards the pier from the side of the ship.

Six large transport ships had already crowded the Huangpu Wharf, and the three ships could only stop again a few hundred meters away from the wharf.

Ten minutes later, a small boat sailed from the pier to the Neptune.

When the boat approached the Neptune, Qian Xiaobao saw that besides the rowing soldiers, there were two officers on the boat.

Due to the heavy load of the Neptune, the distance between the deck and the water surface is very short. Isao Nakamura ordered the rope ladder to be lowered, and two officers climbed onto the ship along the rope ladder.

The leading officer was actually a colonel, followed by a lieutenant.

Da Zuo first said to Captain Isao Nakamura: "Numa Yoshiro, the captain of the [-]rd Regiment of the Guards Division, has been waiting here for two days. Your batch of food is temporarily requisitioned by the [-]rd Regiment and the [-]th Regiment of the Guards Regiment. gone."

"Our Manchukuo Maritime Police Force is only in charge of transportation, and food distribution is not in our hands." Isao Nakamura replied with a salute.

He said while looking at Qian Xiaobao.

Qian Xiaobao hurriedly stepped forward to salute and said, "Qian Xiaobao, Special Agent of the Intelligence Department of the Kwantung Army, was ordered to escort food to the No.13 Army. If I want to requisition food temporarily, I must get an order from the Minister of Intelligence!"

Yoshiro Ikumuma looked at Qian Xiaobao and asked, "Is it okay if I have an order from General Harem Jun?"

Harem Chun is the chief of staff of the China Dispatch Army. It seems that these six boats are waiting for food here under the order of the China Dispatch Army Command.

"No, I have to get an order from the Kwantung Army Intelligence Officer!" Qian Xiaobao replied without hesitation.

He turned to look at Isao Nakamura and said, "I want to use the telegraph on the ship to send a report to the Kwantung Army Intelligence Department!"

After saying this, Qian Xiaobao turned around and walked into the telegraph room.

Yoshiro Iumuma looked at Qian Xiaobao's back in a daze.He didn't expect that the order of the Chief of Staff of the Chinese Dispatch Army would not work well in front of a Kwantung Army Chief Cao.Moreover, the Guard Division is the emperor's guard army, the elite of the Japanese army, and is highly valued by His Majesty the Emperor. I didn't expect that a small Kwantung Army spy chief Cao would embarrass him here.

The third and fourth regiments of the Guards Division did not bring much supplies when they were transferred to Hankou this time. They just waited to replenish in Shanghai. Now the two regiments have a total of [-] people waiting for food.

Half an hour later, a clear-coded telegram was placed on the desk of Liu Tian Yuansan, head of the intelligence department of the Kwantung Army.

After reading the telegram, Liu Tianyuan wanted to issue an order to allow the food to be handed over to the two regiments of the Guards Division.

But he thought for a while, looked at the watch on his wrist, and said, "Send a telegram to Qian Xiaobao immediately, saying that the intelligence department is verifying the communication, and let them wait patiently. Send another telegram in three hours to approve the delivery of food." Hand it over to the Guards Division!"

It will be completely dark in three hours, and the soldiers of the Guards Division with their noses up to the sky will be asked to unload and load food for one night.

Qian Xiaobao walked out of the telegraph room and handed the telegram to Yoshiro Iumuma, saying: "Sir, this is a telegram just sent by the Intelligence Department of the Kwantung Army. Please wait patiently, sir, the order from the Intelligence Department will be issued soon."

Yoshiro Ikumuma looked at Qian Xiaobao with a submissive face, then at the sun that was already in the west, and said, "I'll go back immediately and let the transport ship on the dock leave the dock first, and let your ship dock. The grain will be unloaded on the dock first. No matter who the grain is for, it must be unloaded on the dock first.”

"Hi!" Qian Xiaoyi replied standing at attention.

Satisfied, Yoshiro Ionuma got off the Sea Dragon from the boat and returned to the pier.

For half an hour, sirens sounded continuously from the Huangpu Wharf, and the six transport ships slowly left the wharf one by one and headed for the upper reaches of the Huangpu River.

Isao Nakamura walked into the cab quickly, and Qian Xiaobao followed closely behind him.

"Anchor!" Nakamura ordered.

"Slow!" Qian Xiaobao said.

Isao Nakamura and others in the cab looked at Qian Xiaobao in surprise.

"This is a ship of the Manchukuo Maritime Police Force. You are all soldiers of the Manchukuo Maritime Police Force. So you must obey the orders of the Kwantung Army, not the Chinese dispatched troops!" Qian Xiaobao said.

"You give the order to repair the anchor motor now, and order the Hailong and Haifeng behind to wait in place." Qian Xiaobao said.

The iron chain connected to the anchor head can only be packed up by the rotation of the motor. If the motor is broken, the motor must be replaced immediately.

"Is this an order from the Kwantung Army Headquarters?" Isao Nakamura looked at the intelligence chief Cao in front of him in disbelief.

"There is no such order in the Kwantung Army Intelligence Department's telegram. But I guarantee that if you don't do what I say, you won't be able to walk around after returning to Manchuria!" Qian Xiaobao said.

"You mean to let me wait here for orders from the Kwantung Army Intelligence Department?" Nakamura asked.

"Yes! The order of the Chinese dispatched army is invalid for us, we only obey the order of the Kwantung Army!" Qian Xiaobao said decisively.

Now Nakamura Gong's head is in a mess, and he doesn't understand what Qian Xiaobao means.

"Are you from the Jiangtian Island Naval Academy? If you are in the navy now, do you follow the orders of the lieutenant general or the lieutenant commander?" Qian Xiaobao asked.

Still have questions about this question?Of course, he obeyed the orders of the Major Commander of the Navy, but how could he obey the orders of the Army Red Deer?
Now Isao Nakamura finally understood what Qian Xiaobao meant.

"What if Colonel Iumuma comes back to ask after a while?" Isao Nakamura asked worriedly.

"The motor is broken. We are rushing to repair and replace the motor." Qian Xiaobao replied.

"After the motor was repaired, the boat slowly moved to the shore. This kind of difficult technical work can't be done at one time. You can try it a few times." Qian Xiaobao continued.

It takes a long time to make a turn in the Huangpu River and keep the bow in the direction of the upstream.

Isao Nakamura stared blankly at Qian Xiaobao's calm face.

"The intention of the officer depends on guessing, do you understand?" Qian Xiaobao said.
