It stands to reason that foreigners have privileges in China.
Even if it is murder and arson, Huaxia cannot arrest them. Instead, they must be handed over to the Concession Patrol Room for processing.
The end result is naturally...
However, the German ran away. Apparently he had a guilty conscience.
Strange, what is he guilty of?
Could it be that he really killed the hidden spy?
He was a German, so why did he kill Japanese spies? It seemed that the two of them had nothing in common.
Come to the colorful dots.
The target is hiding in a flammable materials warehouse.
Mainly cotton. In bulk. Not packed yet.
"Come out!"
"If you don't come out, we will set fire to it."
Zhang Yong shouted in German.
As a result, there was no movement inside.
So he took out a grenade and threw it directly in.
Immediately, a figure jumped out. Apparently he was frightened by the grenade. He was then held down.
Handcuffs.
Bundle.
But his mouth was not gagged.
I wonder if Germans have the habit of biting their tongues to commit suicide?
Maybe not.
Just take poison.
Rommel and others all committed suicide by taking poison.
The end of Mustache. Many people around him took poison. Maybe poison is cheaper.
After all, in Germany, the chemical industry is developed and poisons can be mass-produced.
Wave your hands and ask others to step aside temporarily.
"Why run?"
Zhang Yong asked in German.
Just out of curiosity.
"I didn't run away..."
"Do you want to try the ten tortures of the Qing Dynasty?"
"What?"
"The ten most cruel criminal laws are carried out one by one. In the end, you will become a puddle of mud. Mix with the mud and disappear forever."
"I did not do anything……"
"Then why are you panicking?"
"I……"
"say."
"I thought you were British..."
"Am I blond?"
"No. I can't tell them the secret of Tacitus' route..."
"What Tuo?"
"Tacitus Route."
The Germans emphasized repeatedly.
Zhang Yong heard it clearly, but he didn’t understand. What is Tacitus?
He did know what the lumps were.
"what for?"
"Submarine Route."
"What is the use?"
"The main thing is to bypass British surveillance."
"oh……"
Zhang Yong seemed to understand but not quite.
He knows the submarine routes.
He also knew how to bypass British surveillance.
Britain and Germany are mortal enemies.
It was impossible for the British Royal Navy to allow the German Navy to come to the East.
In fact, it was very difficult for the German navy to enter and exit the Atlantic Ocean.
As long as a German warship tried to enter the Atlantic Ocean, it would immediately be attacked by wolf-like British warships. This is how the Bismarck was sunk.
It is impossible to send surface ships to the distant east.
The only way is a submarine.
However, submarines have limited endurance and need to be resupplied midway.
Zhang Yong had not realized before that what kind of technical details would be behind the arrival of the three German submarines in the East.
Now that I think about it, just replenishing oil is very troublesome.
German submarines need to replenish fuel at least five times during the journey. Or even more.
Starting from the Baltic Sea, heading south to Cape Town, crossing the Indian Ocean, the Strait of Malacca, and entering the South China Sea...
How many kilometers is the voyage? Open the world map and calculate it.
Awesome. Nearly 30,000 kilometers!
Is this okay?
I guess even replenishing fuel five times on the road would not be enough.
After replenishing fuel once, the submarine may not be able to run 6,000 kilometers. It is estimated that it will need to be replenished ten times.
Or, there is a large tanker following behind. It can be replenished at any time. But it needs a dock or other place where it can dock and refuel.
"How did you do it?"
"What?"
"You have three submarines coming to the South China Sea. Don't tell me, you don't know anything."
"I……"
"I won't tell the British."
"you swear."
"Okay. I swear, if I leak this, I will be hanged by your head of state in ten years' time."
Zhang Yong vowed to do so.
Very sincere. If there is any falsehood, heaven and earth will punish you.
"Say it."
"We hired an Italian merchant ship and loaded it with fuel and daily supplies. We followed the submarine's activities from a distance of one to two hundred miles."
"If the submarine needs supplies, just send a signal and then rendezvous?"
"yes."
"Can we resupply at sea?"
"It's okay. The speed is just a little slower. There is a small boat responsible for the transfer."
"I see."
Zhang Yong was thoughtful.
In fact, there is no technical content.
The key point is that Italian merchant ships.
Proving once again that Italy is a very strange existence.
This weird thing is not derogatory.
But its position is very strange.
It has good relations with the Axis powers and is strongly supported by Mustache.
However, it secretly had a good relationship with the Allied Powers. At the end of World War II, it transformed and became a victorious country again.
Both ways.
Both sides benefit.
You can call it weak, but it is one of the great powers.
You could say it is strong, but it is also the tail of the great powers.
As a result, merchant ships flying the Italian flag seemed to be in trouble.
Very strange phenomenon.
There is no reasonable explanation.
But it does exist.
“What was the purpose of Tacitus’ route?”
"Communications and military exchanges with the East."
"Military contacts?"
Zhang Yong frowned. Those were the Japanese invaders.
In the East, besides the Japanese invaders, who else is qualified to have military contacts with the Germans?
"Yes. Military exchange."
"What about the three submarines? They seem to have disappeared recently. Where did they go?"
"Going back to the Arabian Sea."
"oh?"
"The people on the freighter have already gone ashore. There is no point in attacking the freighter anymore."
"Who are those on the freighter?"
"I have no idea."
"That……"
Zhang Yong was about to speak but stopped.
I think this Tacitus route seems to be of some use.
But what’s the use? I haven’t thought of it yet.
submarine……
cargo ship……
Very strange combination.
It seems like I can't do anything big...
"May I have your name?"
"Sepp."
"Okay, let's go!"
Zhang Yong waved his hand. Since it has value, it's okay.
Maybe it will come in handy next time.
"Thanks."
Sepp turned and left.
But after taking a few steps, he suddenly turned back.
"Anything else?"
"I know someone."
"who?"
"This man is traveling with me. But he serves Moscow."
"who?"
"His name is Sorge..."
"oh?"
Zhang Yong raised his eyebrows.
Sorge?
Is that the name?
Seems to be……
This guy actually mentioned Sorge.
He even knew that Sorge was serving Moscow. This was a bit fatal.
"What does he do?"
"On the surface, he is a reporter. But, like me, he is a spy."
"Why tell me?"
"He is a scum. He is unwilling to serve the Führer. I will kill him."
"You should do it quietly too!"
Zhang Yong's tone was calm.
Silently thinking about how to kill this guy.
The other party is actually so familiar with Sorge. Keeping him here may be a great disaster.
It's a pity that we can't do anything here. There are too many people and many eyes.
"So, let me tell you."
"Why?"
"You hate red the most. He is the red of Moscow. You will definitely kill him."
"When did I..."
"I know you secretly executed hundreds of reds in one night..."
"What?"
Zhang Yong wanted to curse loudly.
Ma De, you can eat random things, but you can't say random words.
When did I...
It's over. That's what the outside world is saying.
Sooner or later, I will be killed by the red party's black gun. It's so miserable. But there is nothing I can do.
It is absolutely impossible to tell the truth about this matter.
It is already an "established fact".
After the bald man found out, he felt that his work was "very reliable".
Then, now you tell the other person that these are all fake. In fact, they are released. It would be weird if the bald man doesn’t spank him.
"Sorge is currently hiding in Japan. But he may come to Shanghai."
"About what time?"
"I don't know. But as long as the Communist International has important information, he will appear in Shanghai or send his subordinates to Shanghai."
"Subordinates?"
Zhang Yong thought of Hidemi Ozaki.
This guy seems to be a member of Sorge's team?
He came to Shanghai...
Is it to pass on information?
But he looks tired?
I don’t know who the people who are arresting the Japanese Communists are from. It seems that they are the Japanese invaders’ special high school?
But now the Japanese invaders' special higher education courses seem to be paralyzed.
The military has not yet fully taken over.
So, they are safe for now.
Once the military takes over completely, they will be in danger.
"I know. Let's go."
"Goodbye."
"Goodbye."
Zhang Yong's voice was weak.
Thinking about how to make this guy disappear.
But looking back, I think the Tacitus route might be useful.
Alas, what a contradiction!
With my own IQ, it is really difficult to have both sides.
Forget it. I don’t think about it for now.
There must be a road before the car reaches the mountain. We will talk about the next thing later.
Go back to the office.
Pick up the phone and call back to the Jinling Chicken Goose Lane headquarters to find Li Jingzhi.
"Commissioner..."
"Have there been any signals from German submarines recently?"
"Yes. But intermittently."
"No need to pay attention."
"yes."
Zhang Yong hung up the phone.
Sure enough, the German submarine was very far away.
The Arabian Sea, on the other side of the Indian Ocean, is more than five thousand kilometers away from Jinling.
The signal can be received, but it may be weak. It is best to add a transfer station.
Previously, Tanavarro was talking about arranging a cargo ship in the Arabian Sea, equipped with multiple radio stations, specifically responsible for relaying radio waves.
Thoughtful...
Tacitus' route...
It seems like something can really be done...
However, I almost didn’t expect it. Alas...
There are a lot of white spots on the edge of the map. They all have weapons marks. They are judged to be military vehicles.
Oh, it's a guard from the Songhu Garrison Command.
It's Commander Zhang here.
Walk out of the office and greet you at the door.
Sure enough, a moment later, the convoy appeared. It was indeed Commander Zhang.
parking.
Come up and greet.
"Shao Long."
"Commander Zhang."
"How many munitions have you got?"
"Actually, it's not much..."
"Tell me the truth."
"More than 10,000 guns, more than 10 million rounds of ammunition..."
"What?"
Commander Zhang was in disbelief.
This young dragon of yours is called not much?
More than 10,000 guns!
More than 10 million rounds of ammunition!
How many calls have you made yet?
"How did you get it?"
"Captured Japanese spies."
Zhang Yong answered casually.
Leave the British out first. It has nothing to do with them.
It's just to stimulate and excite the spy.
That's right, it was captured from you. It was snatched from your hands.
As for whether you believe it or not, I believe it myself.
"Spy..."
"There was a prince there named Yong Ren who wanted to rebel and usurp the throne, so he contacted me..."
"real?"
"Yong Ren also managed to get these ammunition."
"Why did he?"
"He is seeking power and usurping the throne! The Japanese invaders must have had their own vitality severely damaged before he had a chance to come to power!"
"good!"
Commander Zhang was immediately overjoyed.
There are too many similar examples in China's thousands of years of history.
I just want to be on top.
To hell with others!
If this is the case, there is no doubt that it will reduce a lot of pressure. As long as there is internal chaos among the Japanese invaders, it is definitely a good thing.
"Please keep it confidential."
"clear."
Commander Zhang agreed.
Zhang Yong knew that this matter would be leaked sooner or later.
Because Commander Zhang might tell the other bosses, one by one.
In the process of transmitting information, the secret will definitely be leaked.
But it doesn't matter. What he wants is for the secret to be leaked. What he wants is for the other side to know.
If you don't give Yong Ren any stimulation, he will be too moisturizing.
He must be put under pressure.
Now there are rumors outside that you are going to rebel and usurp the throne, can you still sit still?
Or, go to Hirohito, kowtow, admit your mistake, and isolate yourself from the world. Let the other party believe that you have absolutely no intention of rebelling and usurping the throne.
Or, speed up the layout, risk everything, take a chance, and really start to usurp the throne.
Give it a try and turn your bicycle into a motorcycle.
It is judged that Yong Ren will choose the latter.
Now that you are ready to fight, there is no way out.
Since there is no way out, we must take risks.
so……
Let’s secretly cooperate with us in China.
Let's trick the Army and Red Deer together. Trick them to death. Then you can successfully become the emperor...
"Let's go see the munitions."
"good."
The two came to the warning area.
Arms are dangerous goods and must be stored separately.
Even though it only has rifles, bullets, and artillery shells, it is extremely dangerous. If it explodes, the camp will be set on fire.
"So many shells..."
"Unfortunately, they are all 75mm."
"It's already pretty good. So many cannonballs..."
Commander Zhang was very happy.
For the upcoming plan, ammunition reserves are key.
The bullets are barely passable and can last for half a month of fighting. But the artillery shells are seriously lacking.
Now, with so many artillery shells replenished, the strength has skyrocketed.
But Zhang Yong's reaction was dull.
Whether it was Commander Qian's plan before or Commander Zhang's plan now, they all have a weakness. They require a quick decision.
In fact, the real Battle of Songhu unfolded passively in this way. The later battles were completely unprepared.
We couldn't take it, so we added more troops.
Still can't take it. Continue to increase troops.
Increase, increase, increase, but still can't get it.
at last……
They were pushed back by the Japanese invaders and suffered a complete defeat.
No matter how the history books are written, a disastrous defeat is a disastrous defeat.
Including the subsequent defense of Jinling, it was a complete and utter defeat. They were completely defeated. They lost their troops and lost their territory.
"Commander Zhang, I have the latest information."
"What?"
"This is the specific troop strength in the Japanese-occupied area of Hongkou."
"oh?"
Commander Zhang reached out and took it.
After reading it, I frowned.
Obviously, he did not expect that the Japanese invaders were so powerful.
It was previously estimated to be about a regiment, with about 3,000 people. Unexpectedly, it was more than 5,000 people, and there were many reserve soldiers.
"Once the battle begins, the Japanese invaders will have at least 20,000 troops."
"Twenty thousand..."
Commander Zhang's brows could no longer relax.
If there are 20,000 people, then preparing three divisions is absolutely not enough. At least three times the enemy's strength is needed.
In other words, at least seven divisions are needed. They must all be the main force. Each division has more than 10,000 troops.
