At nine o'clock in the evening on June 10, that is, forty minutes after Xiang Xiaoqiang made the call, news about the Laem Chabang base came through. But as usual, it was not reported to Xiang Xiaoqiang. Instead, it was reported to Zhu Yourong through Zhang Zhao.
Zhu Yourong held the phone and chewed on the survey results:
... Wen Yasha is indeed a real person. She is a Siamese employee of the base's logistics department. She usually does some minor clerical work and works as a translator when the base and local people purchase goods. But at seven o'clock tonight
Many times, Wen Yasha left a resignation letter in the dormitory, packed her things and left. The letter said she was going back to get married and would not come back again. Since her salary had just been paid yesterday, it was normal for her to resign now.
"That's it? That's all?"
Zhu Yourong frowned, feeling a little unreasonable.
"Your Majesty, this is the entire content of Commander Guo's report to the minister."
Zhu Yourong frowned and thought. After thinking for a while, he couldn't think of what to say.
"Okay," she said, "Thank you Zhang Aiqing. Let me know the latest situation as soon as possible."
"I obey the decree."
After putting down the phone, Zhu Yourong put on her pajamas and walked back to the bedroom. The more she thought about it, the more wrong she became.
...Xiang Xiaoqiang was anxious to find this witness, and even brought up the power he had given him to "control the national armed forces"... Moreover, what he asked for was not to mobilize the army, but just to protect a witness...
He was so anxious, as if if he was too late, the witness would be killed... But now, the witness left his resignation letter and left...
When Zhu Yourong thought of this, he felt very bad, so he quickly came outside and pressed his hand on the phone.
At this time, another thought came to my mind:
...Do you believe in Xiang Xiaoqiang that much? After all, he is still a suspect in the murder of your grandfather, do you believe in him that much?
Zhu Yourong pressed the phone, holding the ivory-handled receiver tightly with her fingers, staring at the reflection of the cloisonné filigree on it, her chest pounding.
...However, what Zijin said is right and makes sense... This matter is either Xiang Xiaoqiang or Prince Ananta... What's more, what Xiang Xiaoqiang wants now is not to kill a person, but to protect a person...
Even if you don't trust his words, then I will protect that witness...
"Besides," a voice in Zhu Yourong's heart said loudly, "it has happened so many times, and every time I choose to believe him... Have you ever regretted it? Have you ever been disappointed? Was there ever a time when you believed it wrong? ... No!
...So, why did it happen this time?”
Zhu Yourong thought this way, made up his mind, picked up the phone receiver, and said:
"It's me. Immediately connect me to Laem Chabang Naval Base in Siam and find Commander Guo Chaofeng."
…
Three minutes later, Commander Guo Chaofeng on the other end of the phone said excitedly and fearfully:
"Your Majesty... hello, is this your Majesty?"
"It's me, Guo Aiqing, the Siamese female translator in your base's logistics department, named... Wen Yasha, did you resign tonight?"
"Oh... yes, yes..." Guo Chaofeng said almost incoherently, "Yes, Your Majesty... Your Majesty... Your Majesty... Your Majesty..."
Zhu Yourong paused and smiled:
"Haha, Guo Aiqing, don't be so nervous."
Guo Chaofeng calmed down and said with a smile:
"I... I lost my temper and made Your Majesty laugh. I'll tell you, Wen Yasha should have left around seven o'clock tonight."
"It's past seven o'clock, how can you be sure? Someone saw her when she left?"
"Back to Your Majesty, I have checked. When Wen Yasha walked out of the small gate of the base with her luggage, another colleague of hers greeted her. Wen Yasha was also accompanied by a man who said he was her fiancé and came to pick her up.
Her. Later I checked with her colleague, who said it was about seven o'clock, around 7:30 to 7:40."
Zhu Yourong glanced at the wall clock and saw that it was just 9:07. That means they had been walking for at most an hour and a half.
She thought for a while and asked again:
"That man...well, does he look like her fiancé?"
Guo Chaofeng became a little nervous and asked carefully:
"Your Majesty... tell your Excellency that she is a witness and someone wants to kill her... Do you doubt the identity of that person?"
Zhu Yourong hesitated for a moment and said firmly:
"Yes, I have some doubts."
Guo Chaofeng pondered and said:
"Your Majesty, after receiving Sir Xiang's request, I took it very seriously and immediately arranged for people to search... At that time, we also asked about another female translator who had seen her fiancé at the door. She said Wen Yasha's
Her fiancé is an officer of the palace guard, and the man who came to pick her up also looks like an officer, so he should be right. Moreover, the two of them look very natural, and Wen Yasha does not look like she is being coerced... Your Majesty."
Zhu Yourong hesitated again. She pursed her lips, looked at the clock on the wall, gently held the receiver, and thought about whether to call Xiang Xiaoqiang?
...No, she thought, at this time, things are not clear yet, I cannot be influenced by Xiang Xiaoqiang... I want to remain independent and sober... Xiang Xiaoqiang wants to protect this witness, then I will protect him...
...However, I have to do this myself.
She made up her mind and ordered:
"Guo Aiqing, send someone to find them immediately and chase them! That man is probably sent by the mastermind behind the King Yanping explosion! You have to find a way to intercept them!"
Guo Chaofeng was stunned and said in disbelief:
"Your Majesty... they have been gone for more than an hour. Where do you want me to chase them?"
Zhu Yourong was also stunned. She really hadn't thought about this problem. But then she thought about it. If those people were really Prince Ananta's people, then they could only go back to Bangkok. So she said directly:
"You can chase them in the direction of Bangkok. They are probably going back to Bangkok."
"But Your Majesty..." Guo Chaofeng said even more embarrassedly, "The road distance from my place to Bangkok is only one hundred kilometers, and they walked for an hour. If they take a car, it will be difficult to catch up now!"
Zhu Yourong got a little angry and said a rather serious sentence:
"Guo Aiqing, you have to know that at times like this, I need you to come up with a solution for me! Otherwise..."
She wanted to say, "What else would I want you to do?" but she swallowed it anyway.
Guo Chaofeng was ashamed and ashamed. He apologized repeatedly and took the order.
…
After Guo Chaofeng received Xiang Xiaoqiang's commission before, he didn't take it as an important matter at all and just checked it out. But now, he is really pumped up and energetic, and he is fighting for his life.
He put down the phone and without saying a word, first sounded the level 2 combat readiness alarm.
Loud sirens rang over the Laem Chabang base. All the lights in the barracks were turned on, and whistles sounded one after another. The Marines grabbed their guns, put on their helmets, rushed out of the barracks, and stood in line. Living in a large
The sailors on the ship also put down their cards, novels, and chess, and quickly rushed to their respective combat positions. The sailors on the small ship also put on life jackets and helmets, quickly rushed out of the barracks, and boarded their own small surface patrol speedboats.
, waiting for orders.
At the airport, the pilots on duty also ran out of the military club and movie theater and gathered in the dormitory to stand by. The ground crew turned on the lights in the hangar and began to inspect each aircraft.
The lights everywhere were turned on, and the lights were bright. The entire base suddenly became a brightly lit military city. The searchlights on the surrounding watchtowers were also turned on, and the bright light beams slowly moved along the barbed wire, illuminating the
Every dark corner and kennel started barking wildly. A large number of military dogs were led out by their respective handlers and began patrolling along the perimeter of the base.
Guo Chaofeng calmed down for a moment and then realized that he had gone too far.
At this time, the main senior officers under his command also stood in front of him. Guo Chaofeng looked at them and said seriously:
"Everyone, I have just received your Majesty's imperial decree——"
Having said this, all the senior officers immediately shuddered and stood upright.
"...His Majesty told me on the phone that the only important witness to the Yeonpyeong bombing was just kidnapped from our base more than an hour ago! He may be on his way to Bangkok! Now we must intercept them at all costs.
!”
Now all the officers understand what is going on. It turns out that it is not a war with Japan, nor a war with Britain, France and the Netherlands, but to track down the witnesses of the King Yanping bombing case. It can be regarded as a false alarm. However, His Majesty actually did it directly for the first time.
Calling the base, everyone would be so excited for a while.
The officers immediately spread out the map and studied it briefly. It is unlikely that the other party was riding in a livestock cart. Because there are virgin forests on both sides of the road, there are many wild beasts at night, which is very dangerous. It is about a hundred kilometers of road from here to Bangkok, and the other party
It may have been an hour and a half since we left. Because it was at night, the dirt road in the mountains had no lights, was bumpy, and it was hard to see. If it were a car, it would be difficult to drive, and the speed would not exceed 30 kilometers.
But equally, if we chase with cars, we won’t be able to drive too fast. It will still be difficult to catch up before reaching Bangkok. Therefore, we decided to adopt a waterway interception method. One force will pursue from the highway by car, and the other force will patrol on the highway.
The boat crossed the Bay of Bangkok at a high speed of 30 knots (55 kilometers per hour), took a straight shortcut on the sea, and then landed close to Bangkok and ambush on the road. From Laem Chabang to Bangkok, there is only such a road.
It is very close to the coast, with virgin forests on both sides, and no other road. If we attack from the front and back in this way, we will be sure of success.
The entire base was on standby. Guo Chao gave an order and two Marine companies were dispatched. One company took fifteen military trucks and headed north along the highway to pursue Bangkok, while the other company took ten high-speed patrol boats to cross.
The dark Bangkok Bay is heading towards Bangkok.
…
Sawang Susi has been restless for the past two or three days, unable to eat or sleep well. He and His Highness the Prince conspired to cause this incident, which seems to have become a big deal. Their original purpose was just to eliminate the prince who wanted to marry the Empress of Ming Dynasty.
The obstacle is just Xiang Xiaoqiang. It doesn’t even have to kill him. It just needs to cause an explosion in public, let Xiang Xiaoqiang bear the blame firmly, and destroy him.
But now they accidentally killed King Yanping of Ming Dynasty, and the matter became a big deal. They all knew that Ming Dynasty would never give up, and would definitely get to the bottom of it. If Xiang Xiaoqiang could be blamed for the blame, then the best would be achieved.
Effect: until he dies. However, if he can still escape, the consequences will be too serious...
Therefore, Sawang Susi arranged an action to destroy the clues. The only thing that can directly connect the explosion with Siam is the young lovers: Kunji Dipan and Wen Yasha. Let them disappear, Daming Na
Even if I thought about it, it would be hard to check.
The operation will be carried out tonight in Bangkok and Laem Chabang at the same time. Kunji Dipan and Wen Yasha will be lured out at the same time, and then secretly arrested, so that they will "disappear from the world". However, let Mr. Sawang Susi
A horrifying thing happened. The people from Kunjideepan’s side didn’t come back for a long time. He sent people to see him again, but the whole army was wiped out! Kunjideepan’s family was dead, but all the people he sent were also dead.
.Everyone died in a tragic manner. Moreover, Kunjideepan’s brother’s two children were missing.
Sawang Susi was really terrified. He felt that he seemed to be targeted by some kind of force. What was even more terrible was that he did not dare to inform His Royal Highness the Prince in Nanjing. Because Siam’s almost primitive encryption level, Ming’s
If the intelligence agency wanted to decipher it, it would be just a joke. Now, His Royal Highness still thinks that things are developing in the expected direction.
Fortunately, no matter what happened to Kunji Dipan, the real owner is dead. Now let’s see how Lam Chaban does. If the person who went to capture Wen Yasha is targeted again, then
It's troublesome. Now Sawang Susi is ordering people to track down the whereabouts of Kunji Dipan's two nephews and nieces, while waiting uneasily for the report from Laem Chaban.
…
At 10:30 at night, ten patrol speedboats from Laem Chabang Naval Base in Ming Dynasty, after more than an hour of galloping on the sea of Bangkok Bay, had docked fifteen kilometers southeast of Bangkok. A company of marines on board the ship was involved in the incident.
They landed on the water, marched on foot, and quickly passed through the two-kilometer-wide virgin forest on the seaside to reach the forest road. Then, they quickly spread out, set up light machine guns, arranged interception measures, and ambush on both sides of the road, waiting.
passing vehicles.
This kind of forest road in Siam, plus it is night time, usually there are no vehicles or pedestrians passing by at all. It can be said that once one appears, you can basically be sure that it is the car you are looking for.
When it was almost eleven o'clock, the sound of an engine was faintly heard in the distance. Soon, a light appeared in the dense forest in the distance, shaking, expanding and getting closer.
Marines on both sides were already in position.
The light in the distance gradually got closer, and after turning a corner, two clear car lights appeared, and the bright beams of light swayed on the dirt road in the forest. It was obvious that this was a small officer's car used by the army.
It seems to be the Ming Dynasty style. The few vehicles in the Siamese army are basically from the Ming Dynasty.
A Marine Corps officer stood in the middle of the road, turned on his flashlight, and waved it slowly at the car, signaling it to stop.
But the other party's car seemed to be frightened. Instead of stopping, it stepped on the accelerator and hit it quickly.
The Marine officer immediately jumped to the side of the road and shouted:
"put!"
"boom--!!!"
A bright light flashed and a loud noise flashed, and a big tree was blown apart in the middle. It fell on the road with a huge "crash" and blocked the narrow road.
There was a harsh sudden brake, and the car almost hit the tree canopy. Then the door opened, a man jumped out, and ran away with his body bent.
But before he could take two steps, he was grabbed by two big men who jumped out from beside him. He was thrown to the ground, his arms were cut behind his back, and he was handcuffed.
Several other soldiers rushed to the car and shined flashlights inside. Inside, a young woman was so frightened that she blocked the bright light with her hands.
