However, the distance from Chaotianmen Pier to Wanxian is still quite long.
It's more than 200 kilometers. It takes about ten hours.
Some rivers have dangerous shoals and you must slow down. Otherwise, there is a risk of running aground on the rocks.
Zhang Yong had someone take out the radio and place it in front of the spies.
And put the code book next to the radio station.
The spy kept silent at first and sighed in the end. Now that things have happened, what else can he do?
"You didn't betray." Zhang Yong switched to Japanese.
The spy looked up in surprise.
It feels incredible.
The other party’s Japanese seems to be very standard!
There is also a bit of Satsuma clan accent. Is it really a Japanese fake?
K……
It's best to...
"We just want a more suitable person to be the emperor."
"All right."
Adachi twenty-seven answered in Japanese.
Indeed, being loyal to His Highness Yongren is not considered betrayal. At least it is not betrayal to the Japanese Empire.
When I think about it this way, my psychological pressure is immediately relieved.
What's more, he is not the only supporter of His Highness Yong Ren.
They all have the ability to launch the 226th Mutiny, which shows that His Highness Yongren's hidden strength is very strong.
The Zhang Yong in front of me, no, he may be a Wakayama prodigal, and he has very terrible methods.
"Send a telegram to Yijia to congratulate you on the New Year."
"content?"
"The situation here is complicated and I asked him to take charge of it personally."
"What if he doesn't come..."
"He said that the funding problem had been solved. He came naturally."
"Tie!"
Anda Twenty-Seven obeys orders.
Immediately fiddle with the radio and then send the message. It will be sent soon.
Zhang Yong was very satisfied.
Indeed, the Japanese invaders also knew how to be flexible.
If you want them to betray the Japanese Empire, they may be fanatical and unwilling.
However, if they are simply forced to be loyal to Yong Ren, they seem to accept it.
It's not impossible to change the emperor...
At night.
nothing.
sleep.
The autumn air is crisp and the river breeze is blowing.
When I woke up, I found that it was already past three in the morning and the ship had arrived at Wanxian County.
So I ordered to slow down and monitor along the way.
Wanxian Wharf is located in a large river bend, where many ships gather.
Once upon a time, Wanxian was also quite lively. Ships traveling upstream from the Three Gorges often rested here.
The wooden boat slowly approached the harbor. A red dot appeared on the edge of the map.
One, two, three...
So many. A total of eighteen.
I raised my telescope and found a Japanese cargo ship flying a plaster flag.
Those red dots are the Japanese invaders and sailors on the ship.
According to Adachi Twenty-san, all the people on this Toshikawa Maru freighter were members of the Dolphin Agency.
Found weapon symbol.
Discover the golden sign.
Check.
The weapon symbols are the shell gun and the horse four-ring rifle.
Haha. These Japanese spies actually have horse-mounted four-ring rifles. It seems that they also know that the horse-mounted four-ring rifle is a good thing!
Strange, why don't we have the standard equipment of the Japanese invaders? Is it because I think the 38-inch cover is not easy to use?
That’s right. It’s really not easy for Japanese spies to use the 38 cap.
The main reason is that it is too long and difficult to operate on a daily basis.
Not a field force.
Field troops are in open wilderness.
The area where Japanese espionage operates has a complicated surrounding environment and is not suitable for rifles.
In fact, at close range and on complex terrain, the horse-mounted four-ring rifle is not as useful as the shell gun. I guess the Japanese spies also have them prepared.
It's a bit troublesome now.
There are more than a dozen Japanese invaders, all with weapons. It will not be easy to take them down.
After all, Zhang Yong only has one action team with him. In terms of pure combat effectiveness, it may not be possible to destroy so many spies.
what to do?
Zhang Yong tilted his head and thought for a while.
To capture the thief, capture the king first.
Let’s arrest the leader of the Japanese spies.
Controlling one is equivalent to controlling a batch.
"What's the name of the head of the Dolphin Agency?"
"Cape Muta."
"knew."
Zhang Yong rolled his eyes and had an idea.
Simply put on makeup and then go ashore. Go directly to the freighter of Toshikawa Maru.
Go up. Get closer.
A Japanese spy immediately came up alertly.
"Do……"
"I'm Yijia New Year. Please come out, Muta-kun. There's something important."
"you……"
The spy was confused.
Zhang Yong had turned around and left, standing in a nearby corner.
Didn't go far. Waited for Muta Cape to appear.
In the darkness, the light was weak, and the spy could not clearly see Zhang Yong's appearance. After thinking about it, he went into the cabin to report.
The person who came here spoke very good Japanese, and it didn't look like he was pretending.
"Yijia New Year's greetings?" The person who received the report was Mutianjiao. He personally came to Wanxian to trade.
After all, it is goods worth three hundred thousand oceans.
We made an appointment to trade tomorrow. He arrived early. He first took a look at the surrounding environment.
No abnormalities were found in the results. It seemed to be no challenge.
For a while, Muta Misaki felt quite bored. He secretly planned to take advantage of others.
Eat the opponent's smoke, then turn around and run away quickly.
Dayang will not give any of them.
As long as we act fast enough, 300,000 oceans can be doubled.
At that time, all the money earned from selling all the tobacco will belong to the Dou Agency and he can use it freely.
Strange, what does Yijia do in the New Year?
Borrow money?
This guy……
What a shame!
No matter how hard you work, there is always a lack of funds. You can't make money yourself.
China is so big, and there are so many opportunities to make a fortune, but you have not seized it. You are always asking for it, how much can others give you? Really.
I looked outside and vaguely saw a dark figure in the far corner.
No, the other party feels ashamed.
They didn't dare to get on the boat to see him.
And borrow money!
Thick-skinned.
You must educate the other party properly in a while.
I was just bored. Misaki Muta wanted to find something to do.
Being preconceived, his first reaction was that Yijia was here to borrow money to celebrate the New Year. He had heard about this many times.
Almost everyone who met Yijia New Year was entangled by him.
In the end, three hundred, five hundred, one thousand, more or less will have to be borrowed.
Muta Misaki was getting dressed while thinking about it. After educating the other party, let's lend him three thousand oceans. There is no one left for such a pitiful guy...
"Sir, do you need us to investigate first?" A subordinate was worried.
"No need." Muta Misaki shook his head.
Just one guy. No helpers.
And it's within my sight. What danger could there be?
If I were to bring a large group of people up there, Yijia New Year's Eve would probably be very uncomfortable, and I would be embarrassed to speak.
So, a few minutes later, Mutian Cape landed alone.
Of course, you have to bring weapons. He brought a Walter PPK pistol in case of any eventuality.
Come to the corner.
Suddenly something doesn't feel right.
It’s not Yijia New Year’s greetings.
is a stranger.
"Who are you?" Mutianjiao suddenly became alert and shouted in a low voice in Chinese.
Take out the gun.
Load the gun.
I thought the other party was a tobacco seller.
"I was sent by His Highness Yongren of Chichibu Palace." Zhang Yong replied in Japanese.
Ignore the opponent's pistol.
The name Yongren is still very useful.
Sure enough, when he mentioned Yong Ren, Mutianjiao's expression suddenly became strange.
"You are not Yijia New Year."
"I'm Okuma Shozo. I'm from Wakayama."
"Baga! What do you want to do?"
"Talk to you."
"What to talk about?"
"I hope you can be loyal to His Highness Yongren."
"What's the meaning?"
"His Royal Highness Yongren wants to replace Hirohito and succeed him as emperor. He needs your help."
"Baga! Are you crazy?"
Muta Misaki suddenly became nervous and looked around involuntarily.
Fortunately, there was no one around. Otherwise, he simply didn't know what to do. The bastard in front of him actually talked to him about such taboo things.
Prince Yoshihito of Chichibu Palace!
He actually wants to rebel!
Damn it!
Incredible!
I actually heard such an obscure secret!
It’s over…
It’s over…
Suddenly something doesn't feel right.
Oops……
The pistol was stolen.
He turned around hastily. Sure enough, the gun was in Zhang Yong's hand.
Although he judged that Muta Misaki did not dare to shoot, Zhang Yong still reached out and grabbed the opponent's pistol.
Caution is the boat.
OK now. Safe!
You can hold the other party at will, round it, square it, and make the other party go east, but the other party dare not go west.
otherwise……
I went to see Amaterasu.
"Who is Mutaguchi Ren to you?"
"It has nothing to do with you!"
"His Royal Highness Yongren can help him be promoted to Army Lieutenant General and become Army Commander..."
"Baga! What nonsense are you talking about?"
"Otherwise, he will wait to be transferred to the reserve force. He will go home and become a soldier in his hometown. He will never want to serve again."
"Baga! Are you threatening me?"
"No. It was His Highness Yong Ren who gave your Mutian family a chance."
"You bastard……"
Muta Misaki's voice gradually became weaker.
But he discovered that there were shadowy figures around him. They were obviously brought by the other party.
In the dim light, the reflection of metal can be seen.
That's the barrel. That's a machine gun.
To be precise, it is a Czech-style light machine gun. Its barrel is cold forged and its surface is silver-white.
Damn it!
The other party actually arranged machine guns.
Obviously, if you don't agree, you will most likely be wiped out by the other party.
Who told him to know secrets that he shouldn't know?
Tangled. Hesitant.
silence.
"If I don't agree..."
"Then go to hell!"
"you……"
"His Royal Highness Yongren can kill three generals. How do you think you compare with them?"
"I……"
Muta Misaki shuddered.
Of course he knew about the February 26 Incident.
I know that that night, the streets of Tokyo were filled with blood.
Later, the rebellion was suppressed and more than 300 people were shot. The same blood flowed like rivers.
As a bystander, I was secretly shocked.
Unexpectedly, I was actually involved in it now. I was walking on the edge of a knife and could die at any time.
"I'll give you a minute to think about it."
"I……"
"This is your last chance."
"I……"
Muta Misaki finally lowered his head.
He didn't want to die. At the same time, he also had a trace of fantasy.
The merit of supporting the establishment?
Seems good...
Wealth and honor are found in danger. Without danger, how can wealth and honor be obtained?
"well."
Zhang Yong was very satisfied.
Sure enough, the merits of persuading people to rebel are immeasurable.
I am simply the Yao Guangxiao of the Japanese Empire! I just want to prove myself.
"Very good. Bring us 300,000 yuan."
"What?"
Muta Misaki quit immediately.
Sensitively aware that the other party's demands are too much.
That's the Dolphin Agency's money!
Why should I give it to you?
"His Royal Highness Yong Ren needs financial support. You understand."
"But……"
"Now, you take out 300,000 yuan as capital for planning big things. When His Highness Yongren succeeds to the throne, he will definitely pay you back tenfold!"
"But……"
"So, were you lying just now?"
"No……"
"Actually, you don't want to be loyal to His Highness Yongren at all. You just want to save your life. Is that right?"
"no."
"That's good. Otherwise..."
Zhang Yong took out the three-edged thorn and demonstrated it in front of Mutianjiao.
If you don't obey, just stab him like this.
Show your blood!
Make you ignorant...
"There is an old Chinese saying: He who knows the current affairs is a hero..."
"That money is to be traded with the Chinese people..."
"I know."
"That……"
"Give me the money. I'll help you with the transaction."
"But……"
"Not only are these 300,000 yuan going to be given to me, but all the savings of your organization must be taken out. They will be used as business capital for His Highness Yong Ren..."
"Baga! You..."
Muta Misaki realized that he was wrong and boarded a pirate ship.
The other party is greedy.
The previous promises were completely false.
The other party only wants the Dolphin Agency’s money! He wants to take all the money from the Dolphin Agency!
"ah……"
Suddenly he started to hum.
Immediately, his mouth was blocked and he couldn't scream.
But the three-edged thorn pierced his lower abdomen. But it didn't penetrate. Zhang Yong didn't use all his strength.
"you……"
Misaki Muta's cheeks twisted.
Zhang Yong looked indifferent and stared at the other person from close range.
disobedient?
Want to regret it?
Haha. It's late.
How could you regret such a thing?
Either, it is a dead end. Or, it is to die now.
"Actually, His Highness only wants money."
"you……"
"I am soft-hearted and want to save your life. But you don't know what is good and what is good..."
"I give……"
Muta Misaki finally reluctantly agreed.
He didn't want to die, especially in the hands of his own people. He felt that his life was passing quickly.
"Bring me the money."
"On my body, on my body..."
"oh?"
Zhang Yong realized later.
Sorry, I forgot to search myself. Really.
I haven't touched corpses often recently. I feel that my movements have deteriorated, and my consciousness has also deteriorated.
Search quickly.
As a result, I found a stack of dollars.
You don't need to look at it, you can tell it is US dollars as soon as you touch it with your hand. You know it clearly.
I took it out, and sure enough, it was US dollars, with a face value of 10 yuan. There were more than thirty pieces, which was more than three hundred US dollars.
Get it into your pocket immediately.
The search continued and another stack of banknotes was found.
There are ones with a face value of 100 and some with a face value of 200, about three thousand.
continue.
Never found again.
"What His Highness needs is three hundred thousand oceans..."
"Everyone is on board..."
"Remove all the people on the ship and replace them with my people."
"I……"
"If you don't want to cooperate, I will just shoot and kill everyone, and then the ocean will still be mine."
"you……"
Mutianjiao was speechless and angry.
idiot!
My own people are so cruel!
That Yong Ren is really not a good guy! His methods are too vicious.
For money, you really do whatever it takes.
idiot!
Such a person still wants to usurp the throne?
However……
He was dying and had no choice.
He lost too much blood and finally fainted. However, he was quickly brought back to reality by the severe pain.
But it was Zhang Yong who stirred the three-edged thorn. Mutianjiao suddenly woke up from pain.
"ah……"
Muta Misaki screamed.
The spies aboard the Toshikawa Maru cargo ship immediately realized something was wrong.
They rushed out of the cabin quickly. They were armed with weapons and moved very quickly. They almost rushed out in full force.
