General Shou Daichi in the temple was so tired that he overslept. When he got up, he saw that it was already noon. He cursed Baga a few times, washed himself briefly, called Masako to bring food in, and waited for him to eat. He panicked.
I went to the war room in a panic.
After arriving in the war room, the staff officer on duty sent several thick stacks of telegrams. General Touichi Terauchi flipped through them and found that they were basically telegrams from the Eastern Henan Front and Jinan.
General Shouichi in the temple sat down, selected some major telegrams, read them carefully, and prepared to reply one by one.
Last night, General Touichi Teuchi had already made up his mind to achieve substantial results in eastern Henan no matter what and eliminate part of Chiang Kai-shek's main force. Therefore, he wanted to make a bet with Liu Yimin that Liu Yimin's troops would not be able to attack Jinan after the Battle of Central Shandong.
, using a feint to Jinan to cover the main force and then rest and recuperate, giving him time to eliminate the main force of the national army in the first theater in eastern Henan. After he annihilated the main force in the first theater in eastern Henan, he would then return to the division to eliminate instructor Liu Yimin. The last step in the process was to
The key factor is time. It depends on whether he ends the war in East Henan first or Liu Yimin finishes his rest first. If he ends the war in East Henan first and solves the main force in the first theater, then the war situation will be completely alive. He will also return to Shandong to eliminate the instructors.
Well, he can go west to attack Zhengzhou or Luoyang, or even seize the opportunity to go straight to Wuhan. He has the final say. If Liu Yimin ends his rest first, Jinan will be okay because there are 08 divisions guarding it, but Qingdao will be hard to say.
The Qingdao garrison is really too weak.
At this time, Lieutenant General Naosaburo Okabe led the main force of the North China Front Command to Jinan to form the Xuzhou Battle Command of the North China Front. No one in the staff of this command dared to wake up General Touichi Terauchi when he was sleeping.
So the telegrams accumulated.
General Touichi Terauchi first read the aircraft reconnaissance report. There were three reports in total, one every two hours from 8 a.m. to 2 noon. It can be seen that the aviation force strictly implemented his orders. However, the content of the telegram worried General Touichi Terauchi.
I was horrified. The first report stated that there were corpses everywhere in the fields from the Xihe River to the Weihe River. Since there were no military uniforms, it was impossible to tell whether they were the corpses of the imperial army or those of the Shandong Autonomous Allied Forces. The second report stated
He said that after a careful search, no escaping imperial troops were found on the battlefield. The third letter was even more horrifying. It even said that the plane expanded the search area and found that except for the imperial troops stationed in Gaomi and Jiao County, no marching troops of the Qingdao garrison were seen.
At this moment, the heart of General Shou Daichi in the temple began to fall straight down like a weight. He hurriedly searched a few times, trying to find the telegrams from the Gaomi and Jiaoxian garrison, and to see if the Qingdao garrison had joined them in Gaomi or Jiaoxian.
We camped in Jiao County. We were disappointed because there was no telegram from them.
Temple Shouyi kept muttering to himself, Gaomi and Jiaoxian were also captured by the Eighth Route Army, right? Fortunately, the radio station quickly contacted the Gaomi, Jiaoxian, and Jimo defenders, but the report from the defenders made Shouichi Temple angry.
Blame Baga. It turns out that the Gaomi garrison belongs to the independent mixed third brigade. The main force has already gone to reinforce Wei County. Only a second lieutenant, fifteen soldiers and five military police are left to lead the Gaomi security team.
The county seat. The garrison in Jiao County belongs to the Qingdao garrison, but the situation is similar to the situation in Gaomi. These Japanese troops are too small and they dare not leave the city at all, and it is impossible to complete the task of responding to the retreat of the Qingdao garrison. So in the end the Qingdao garrison
They did not know where they retreated to, nor did they see it. However, they all claimed that the troops were too few and requested to withdraw to Qingdao.
Knowing that Gaomi and Jiaoxian were still in the hands of the imperial army, General Touichi Temple finally felt a little more comfortable. However, he was still wondering where the Qingdao garrison was. Calculating the distance, they should be between Gaomi and Jiaoxian at this time.
between Jiao County, but why didn't they contact the Gaomi and Jiao County defenders?
One situation is that they were so frightened that they fled for their lives in a hurry without stopping at all. They just wanted to escape back to Qingdao. If this was the case, why didn't the aviation force discover them? I'm afraid it can only be another situation, that is
They had been overtaken and annihilated by Liu Yimin's troops.
Based on his experience in dealing with Liu Yimin's troops, General Terauchi Juichi already intuitively believed that there was probably something wrong with the Qingdao garrison. However, he did not give up and quickly dug out Colonel Oshima's telegram. After studying it for a long time, he found that it was perfectly consistent and could not see anything.
wrong.
In desperation, General Shoudai in the temple had no choice but to send a report to the garrison in Jimo and Qingdao, asking if there was any news about Colonel Oshima.
In addition to the Marine Corps, the Qingdao garrison is the remaining force of the Qingdao garrison. The commander reported that he had received a report from Colonel Oshima and was heading towards Qingdao. He expected to return to Qingdao tomorrow. The Jimo garrison was more straightforward and directly reported the railway
It doesn't make sense. Even if Colonel Oshima's troops were running all the way, they wouldn't be able to enter Jimo County at this time.
General Juichi Terauchi was puzzled. Why did the Qingdao defenders report with certainty that they were in contact with Colonel Oshima? Is there any problem? I originally wanted to contact the Qingdao Marine Corps, but that would have to go through the Navy Department.
It was very troublesome to relay the messages from level to level. Just take some technical measures! So, General Touichi Terauchi asked the radio station to notify the commander of the Qingdao garrison who stayed in Qingdao to send a special coded telegram to Colonel Oshima, which was translated by Colonel Oshima himself.
We know the authenticity of Colonel Oshima's telegram. Of course, this time, the North China Front Army Headquarters radio station was very clever and specially hired a radio operator who was particularly familiar with the Qingdao garrison to perform the task of sending the message.
At this point, things became a little clearer, but General Juichi Terauchi's heart also dropped into the ice cave, because more than an hour passed, not only Colonel Oshima didn't call back, but even the commander of the Qingdao garrison didn't call back either. This
The problem is too serious!
General Juichi Terauchi was worthy of being a famous Japanese general. The hair on his body stood up when he didn't reply to the phone call. He immediately ordered the North China Front Army Flying Group to immediately send planes to conduct a comprehensive investigation of Qingdao and the entire Jiaodong Peninsula, focusing on Qingdao.
Juichi Terauchi devoted himself wholeheartedly to the command. He spent the entire afternoon sending and receiving telegrams without paying attention to how much time had passed. As a result, the flight group reported that it was getting late and it would be difficult for the aircraft to return safely after being dispatched. Please ask the commander
Your Excellency has given permission to take off for reconnaissance tomorrow.
Admiral Judai Terauchi had no choice but to send electricity to the Navy Ministry, and asked the Navy Ministry to send an order to dispatch the fleet headquarters to China, so that the Fourth Fleet, which was anchored in Lianyungang for transporting the Sixth Division, quickly rushed back to Qingdao to conduct reconnaissance on Qingdao and prepare
Preparations for the attack. As a result, this order was rejected by China's dispatch of a fleet. The reason was that the Third Fleet and the Fourth Fleet were executing the orders of the Chief of Staff, Prince Hanwon Miyazaihito, and were unable to carry out the orders of His Excellency the Admiral.
General Shoudai of the temple did not know what tasks Prince Hanwon Palace Zaijin had assigned, but his matter was extremely urgent and could not be delayed for a moment. In his anxiety, he directly sent a report to Prince Hanwon Palace Zaijin, requesting His Highness the Prince to order the fourth
The fleet immediately sailed back to Qingdao to find out what exactly happened in Qingdao.
At this time, Prince Kanin Gong Zaihi wanted to send electricity to General Touichi Terauchi, so after receiving the telegram from General Touichi Terauchi, Prince Kanin Gong Zaihi immediately called back and reported the situation of the imperial meeting, and proudly told Touichi Terauchi
General, he found Liu Yimin's wife Ni Hua's cargo ship, which was heading to Qingdao. He asked General Terauchi Juichi to immediately order the Qingdao garrison to intercept and capture Ni Hua, ensure the safety of the Americans on board, and after unloading, let the Americans return to the United States with the ship.
.
After receiving the telegram from Prince Kanin Gong Zaijin, General Touichi of the temple, he woke up as if from a dream and ran towards the map in three steps and two steps, staring at Qingdao, wishing he could cut out the pattern and eat it!
Now that all the circumstances have been thoroughly clarified, Liu Yimin had a plan within a plan. He not only destroyed the Eighth Division and the Independent Third Brigade, but also took advantage of the situation to attack Qingdao. His purpose in attacking Weixian was not only
It was to save Chiang Kai-shek's troops in eastern Henan, not only to seize Luzhong and eliminate the 8th Division, but also to control the port to receive the supplies his wife had brought back from the United States. It was ridiculous that Prince Xianyuan Gong Zairen and himself were in vain.
The famous general of the imperial army, Zhu Shi, was led by this hateful yellow-haired boy to jump into the trap step by step. He thought he was smart and dreamed of mobilizing heavy troops to eliminate him after the war in eastern Henan. Now it seems that this guy is too scary.
Wow, the depth of his ingenuity, the viciousness of his methods, and the speed of his actions were unprecedented in his life. How would he fight the North China War in the future?
In front of his eyes, Touichi Terauchi kept shaking the falling sun flag at Qingdao harbor, shaking gold bars, silver dollars and banknotes from the Japanese and puppet banks. He couldn't help but his eyes blackened, a mouthful of blood spurted out, and he fell to the ground.
When he woke up, he opened his eyes and saw Kita Seiichi's round head.
After receiving the report that the commander had fainted, Lieutenant General Kita Seiichi rushed to the scene immediately and directed the military doctors to rescue him. Fortunately, it didn't take long. General Juichi Terauchi woke up and was about to say a few words of comfort. Damn it!
The staff officer hurried in and shouted: "Report to the commander, I have intercepted the Eighth Route Army radio broadcast to the world, saying that the Eighth Route Army has captured Qingdao."
Terauchi Juichi, who had just woken up, tilted his head and fainted again.
I have to admire Japan's advanced medical science. A few military doctors were in a hurry and finally woke up General Touichi Terauchi. This old devil had lost his usual domineering attitude at this time. His face was sallow and his eyes looked a bit like dead fish eyes.
However, General Judai Terauchi has been immersed in military affairs since he was a child and has a strong will. Lying on the collapse, he dictated several orders to Kita Makoto one after another: 1. Order Lieutenant General Okabe Naosaburo, Chief of Staff of the North China Front, to lead the command.
Ministry personnel will immediately fly back to Peiping early tomorrow morning and temporarily replace General Juichi Terauchi to assume the command of the North China Front Army. Second, order all units on the eastern Henan front line to immediately stop offensive operations. The 14th Division and the 27th Division must fight with Xuzhou East
Establish contact with each division to ensure the formation of a complete defense system and wait for further orders. Among them, the main force of the 114th Division quickly returned to Yanzhou to defend and open up the connection with Tai'an; the 10th Division made every effort to defend Xuzhou. Third, dispatched from the mainland
The 110th Division of North China canceled its plan to land in Tianjin, and the fleet immediately turned around to rendezvous with the Fourth Fleet to prepare for the capture of Qingdao and wait for further orders. Fourth, all troops on the Jinpu Line must abide by the order to hold the city and are not allowed to
Use any excuse to attack out of the city and wait for further orders.
After giving the order, the extremely weak General Judai Terauchi closed his eyes and rested for a moment. The Eighth Route Army, who wanted to see the confidential staff records, read it over the phone, mumbled a few times, and then said to Kita Seiichi: "Kita-kun, please
Send a report to the base camp for me, saying that since I arrived in North China, although I have worked hard, planned carefully, and done my best for the Japanese Holy War, my ability is limited, my age is too old, my body is getting weaker, and I am unable to bear the heavy responsibility. This is to His Majesty the Emperor.
I apologize and resign as commander of the Imperial Japanese Army's North China Front, and ask the Ministry of War to send another capable general to take over. I want to return to my homeland to recuperate for a while."
Kita Seiichi has been prospering recently with General Juichi Terauchi, and has also become a lieutenant general. He has long forgotten that General Juichi Terauchi slapped him and humiliated him, and is still thinking about relying on General Juichi Terauchi to become a better one.
He wanted to be promoted to a general position in the future. When I heard that Terauchi Juichi said that he wanted to resign and go back to Japan to recuperate, he felt like the sky was falling. His eyes were filled with tears, and he slapped himself away, shouting while slapping.
: "My bastard, my incompetence, my inaccurate information, my loss of Qingdao, my grief to the Commander, my great incompetence!"
When the staff officers nearby saw Lieutenant General Kita Seiichi crying and slapping him, they couldn't help but follow suit. The room was filled with crazy cries and crisp slaps.
In the end, it was General Judai Terauchi who stopped them, and Seiichi Kita called Miss Masako to come in and helped General Juichi Terauchi rest while he was busy conveying orders.
When Chen Dayong marched into Qingdao, it was already 11 o'clock on the night of the 28th.
At this time, in the minds of the Japanese army, Qingdao was their base and the rear area, no different from Tokyo Bay. Therefore, the remaining Qingdao garrison brigade and the Marine Corps were extremely lax in their vigilance. Some officers and soldiers even stayed at 11 o'clock at night.
Still hanging out in taverns and brothels.
The No. 1 Squadron of Wang Laohu Special Operations, which is responsible for the guidance task, is a sharp knife trained by Liu Yimin. It is far more elite than the cognitive level of military strategists of this era. Moreover, from Xinwei to Qingdao, Chen Dayong and others followed Liu Yimin and got used to stealing cities.
The work of breaking out of a stronghold, including how to deceive the city, what to do in the first step after entering the city, and what to do in the second step, is absolutely familiar. A lot of preparation work was done before entering Qingdao, and guides were assigned to each company. Therefore,
, it didn’t take much effort for the Seventh Brigade to enter Qingdao. After entering Qingdao, it was like chopping melons and vegetables. They quickly cleaned up the Japanese and puppet troops, who had only a few people in the first place, including those who were lying on the bed of prostitutes.
All the Japanese traitors and traitors were snatched away and the valuable ones were temporarily imprisoned. Ordinary Japanese officers and soldiers were simply cut into two pieces.
After completely controlling Qingdao, on the morning of the 29th, Chen Dayong sent troops to disguise themselves as Japanese troops and eliminate all the Japanese and puppet troops in Jimo County. Since Jiao County and Gaomi County were slightly far apart, Liu Yimin also strictly ordered not to capture these two counties for the time being.
In order to confuse the Japanese, we did not send troops to deal with them for the time being.
The operation to capture Qingdao was originally perfect, but due to the layout of the Japanese secret agents and the strong judgment of General Juichi Terauchi, it almost became imperfect.
First, Ni Hua reported that the cargo ship was targeted by Japanese planes, and then the telegraph operator sent by the North China Front for the Qingdao garrison commander to interpret could not be deciphered. Chen Dayong immediately knew that the Japanese had not only discovered Ni Hua's cargo ship, but also discovered
The anomaly in Qingdao, and any further concealment would be an insult to the intelligence of the Japs. He quickly reported it to Liu Yimin and ordered the troops to strictly guard the coastal defense positions and prepare to deal with the Japs' warships and aircraft.
Like General Shoudai in the temple, Liu Yimin also worked hard for days and was already very sleepy. He fell asleep as soon as he hit the pillow and did not wake up until noon on the 29th.
After waking up, Liu Yimin meditated for a while and felt refreshed before washing and eating.
After dinner, Liu Yimin had nothing to do and ran to the 1st Teaching Brigade. Accompanied by Cheng Cuilin on the plateau, he went to the 1st Teaching Group to inspect the learning and training status of the soldiers.
It had been a long time since he came, so the soldiers naturally cheered when they saw Liu Yimin. Liu Yimin was not polite and directly asked Wang Dahu and Wang Xinyun to collect the soldiers' study books and prepare for correction.
This time is different from the past. Liu Yimin wants to see how Wang Dahu and Wang Xinyun are studying. This army will be expanded. Wang Dahu and Wang Xinyun will naturally become brigade commanders and brigade political commissars, and they will be the most elite infantry brigade commanders under his command.
, Liu Yimin had to strictly demand them.
After Wang Dahu and Wang Xinyun took out their study books, Liu Yimin felt happy when he opened Wang Dahu's study books. There were not only mathematics, physics and chemistry homework, but also summaries and experiences after each battle. Especially for the victory over Taiyuan Shibu.
Liu Yimin couldn't help but applaud the summary of artillery-coordinated siege tactics. He felt that Wang Dahu had indeed grown up step by step.
However, Wang Dahu's last little note made Liu Yimin frown. Wang Dahu wrote this: "Since I met the commander in Xinwei, he has been my leader, teacher, brother, and comrade in life and death. If anyone
If someone dares to hurt the division commander, I will take the bullet for him without even thinking. Even if I die a hundred times, I won’t allow anyone to touch him. But, I don’t know what to say. Doctor Ni is coming back. Soldiers and I
We are all looking forward to her return, because she is the Red Bodhisattva of our Red Army. With her here, the seriously injured have more hope of surviving. But as soon as Dr. Ni comes back, what will Xiao Tang do? What will Xiao Zhenghe do? Commander
How to deal with this matter? Will the leaders criticize the teachers? Should I continue to call Xiao Tang sister-in-law, or should I change my name to Dr. Ni’s sister-in-law? Can I call them both brothers and sisters? Thinking about this gives me a headache.
I'm really worried about the teacher. I don't want to think about it anymore. Anyway, I'm not that good, and I can't help the teacher. The teacher is so pitiful! Xiao Tang is also pitiful! Xiao Zhenghe is even more pitiful! Dr. Ni is also pitiful! But the most pitiful one is Zhao Xiao
Man and Jingjing!”
Wang Dahu didn't expect Liu Yimin to read his study book, page by page, carefully reading word for word. He felt uneasy and uneasy. He stood motionless beside Liu Yimin. The further back he got, the more frightened he became. His head was covered with thin
Beads of sweat.
After Liu Yimin read it, the excitement he felt when he first came suddenly disappeared. His face was filled with gloom, and he was stunned for a long time while holding Wang Dahu's study book.
Gao Yuan didn't know what was going on, so he came closer and looked at it again. After a long time, he sighed and handed Wang Xinyun's study book to Liu Yimin's hand, replacing Wang Dahu's study book.
It wasn't until Li Chengyi came to Liu Yimin and said there was an urgent military situation and the political commissar asked the division commander to return to the division headquarters immediately that Liu Yimin stopped correcting and left with a gloomy look.
As soon as Liu Yimin left, Gao Yuan yelled at Wang Dahu: "Wang Dahu, have you grown up? You are the only one who can, you are the only one who is close to the teacher, and you are the only one who knows how to care about the teacher! You are so damn lazy that you don't care! I tell you
You, that is the division commander’s private matter and has nothing to do with commanding the war! It has nothing to do with whether you have the ability to lead the Shandong Anti-Japanese Base Area! You have the ability, and so many outstanding girls have taken a fancy to you! How long has it been since the division commander came? All the cadres and soldiers are waiting
You are chatting with him! As for you, if you don't pick up the pot, you will destroy it no matter how good your mood is! Do you know how much effort the teacher put into winning this battle?
Originally, the division commander was in a happy mood after the victory and returned to his old army to see his comrades. It would be better for you to let the division commander go away with a shameful face! I think you don’t want to be the leader of the first teaching regiment, but go to the first branch of the Anti-Japanese University and become the director of the political department.
Bar!"
Wang Dahu was already extremely regretful, but after hearing Gao Yuan's roar, he felt so aggrieved that he wanted to bang his head against the wall.
Seeing that the brigade commander was angry, Wang Xinyun had to stand aside and accompany Wang Dahu to be trained. Cheng Cuilin took Wang Dahu's study book and read it again, and said to Gao Yuan: "Forget it, it's not a big deal. Dahu also cares about the teacher sincerely.
Don’t blame us if the division commander is in a bad mood, that’s his own business. As an old comrade, it’s normal to care about him. I think so, after these two days, Dahu will go find the division commander and ask him to come and learn from the soldiers.
This review is completed."
Gao Yuan was furious. When he heard what Cheng Cuilin said, he glared and shouted directly to Cheng Cuilin: "What a beautiful idea! Don't say it for two days, it will be impossible to come in a year! There are more than a dozen brigades in the division, and Shandong is as big as
, and there are Japanese troops on all sides. How many important things does the division commander have to consider, and where will he have time to come back?"
Cheng Cuilin immediately became happy, pointing at the plateau and laughing: "I said Brigadier Gao, you are the brigade commander, what did you do just now? Why are you angry at me when the teacher is gone? Besides, the teaching regiment is in the mind of the teacher.
You know better than me what the status is, and what the relationship between Wang Dahu and the teacher is, you know better than me! I also tell you that you don’t have to wait two days, the teacher will come in the evening. If you don’t believe me, just wait and see!"
Gao Yuan stopped yelling. After thinking about it, he realized that what Cheng Cuilin said made sense. It was indeed not Wang Dahu's fault. It was just Wang Dahu's notes that made the teacher worried. He had not finished correcting the study book. With the teacher's temper, he
At the very least, the study books of the First Battalion must be corrected.
Gao Yuan figured it out and felt better. He said to Wang Dahu and Wang Xinyun: "You two take people to get some game, get some vegetables, and get some wine. The teacher is coming over in the evening, and we will have a drink with him.
Let him relax. Let me tell you, you can say anything while drinking, but you are not allowed to talk about this matter. This is a taboo! Do you understand?"
Wang Dahu and Wang Xinyun quickly stood at attention and answered, "It's clear."
Liu Yimin returned to the division headquarters and saw that Luo Ronghuan, Zeng Zhongsheng, and Cai Zhong were all in a mess. He quickly took the telegram from Luo Ronghuan's hand and saw that Ni Hua reported that the Japanese army had dispatched a large number of aircraft to search the sea, and that the cargo ship had been captured by the Japanese army.
It was discovered that Japanese planes were hovering over the cargo ship and might bomb at any time.
Perhaps Ni Hua felt that he was about to part ways with Liu Yimin, so he wrote at the end of the telegram, "Dear Min, I love you! See you in the next life!"
Chen Dayong's telegram stated that he had received a report from Ni Hua. The cargo ship had been discovered by Japanese planes and was in danger at any time. He had ordered his troops to enter coastal defense positions and be ready to attack Japanese planes and ships at any time and respond to Ni Hua.
Liu Yimin did not expect that such a thing would happen. He was already in a bad mood, but now he became even more depressed. He had a dark face and smoked heavily.
Cai Zhong said: "We have been negligent. The Japanese are the best at spying. Ni Hua has created such a big momentum in the United States, and I am afraid that he has been targeted by the Japanese. If I had known this, I should have let Ni Hua and the cargo ship go separately. Now
If the Japanese bomb, the loss will be too great."
Zeng Zhongsheng said: "From the telegram, it seems that the Japanese have just found them. Now we have to see whether the identity of the American merchant ship can scare the Japanese. If the Japanese destroy the ship, it will be troublesome. However, the Japanese may not dare."
Luo Ronghuan saw Liu Yimin smoking heavily and knew that he was more impatient than anyone else. He thought for a while and said: "The division commander originally said that the Japanese Navy and the Army have conflicts. The navy is in charge of matters on the sea. They must not know that Qingdao is being attacked."
If we occupy it, it is very likely that they will use aircraft to monitor the movement of the cargo ship, send warships to chase the cargo ship, and drive the cargo ship into Qingdao Port. If they were bombing, they would have opened fire long ago, and they would not just let the aircraft monitor it!"
Liu Yimin nodded and ordered a report to be sent to Ni Hua, so that she should not be afraid. The Japs just wanted to seize the cargo ship, intercept supplies, and arrest Ni Hua. They did not have the guts to directly attack American ships yet. The cargo ship drove at full speed and headed towards Qingdao Port at full speed.
Go forward. As long as you enter Qingdao Port, it will be safe.
Then he sent a report to Chen Dayong, ordering him to mobilize all available forces and be sure to unload the cargo of the cargo ship tonight.
After sending the telegram, Liu Yimin sat blankly at the division headquarters and waited, cursing his own negligence in his mind. What did little Japan do? Their spies were so pervasive that they probably even had several plans to assassinate or kidnap Ni Hua in the United States.
How could I be so careless? If the little devil knew that Qingdao was occupied by our army, he might actually bomb the cargo ship. In that case, the goods would naturally sink to the bottom of the sea, and the woman he loved would probably never be seen again. To say the least,
If the Japanese move faster and send warships to catch up with the cargo ship, among other things, they will definitely not let Ni Hua go. If they want to save her in the future, they will probably have to capture Shouichi Terauchi in exchange for the Japanese.
Finally, when it was getting dark, Ni Hua reported that the Japanese plane had left, and Chen Dayong reported that the cargo ship had been seen and the signal had been contacted. Liu Yimin waited no longer and immediately ordered the power to be transmitted to the whole world, and the Eighth Route Army recaptured Qingdao!
