Xiang Xiaoqiang stared at her without saying a word.
This silly girl had hit his bottom line. He originally planned to respect her and not be rude to her. He originally thought that if Miss Xue really didn't want to get out of the way, then he wouldn't have to pay attention to her and go around.
She just got on the plane. If she was aggressive, she would pull her clothes a few times at most. It wouldn't be a big deal, it would just be a loss of face.
But now Xue Yuzhen openly threatens her subordinates and Li Guoliang's subordinates who are following her. This is forcing herself to have no way out. If she doesn't "use force" with her today, then in the eyes of her subordinates
, in the eyes of Li Guoliang's subordinates, in the eyes of Li Guoliang, he has always been a person with limited power. In the future, things like Zheng Gongyin setting up a trap to frame him will happen from time to time.
Only when everyone thinks that he is the most powerful person in the Ming Dynasty except Zhu Yourong, will a group of power that transcends all others be formed around him.
But this kind of thing is absolutely not allowed to happen.
Xiang Xiaoqiang stared at Xue Yuzhen for a while, then suddenly shouted:
"Hu Jiong!"
"have!"
"I order you to pull this Miss Censor aside!"
Hu Jiong swallowed dryly, and after a second, shouted:
"yes!"
Saying that, he strode forward and started to pull Xue Yuzhen.
Xue Yuzhen stared at him and said coldly:
"How dare you! Do you know how many years you will be sentenced?"
Hu Jiong swallowed another mouthful of dry saliva, glanced at Xiang Xiaoqiang, and without hesitation, closed his eyes and directly took Xue Yuzhen's arm and said loudly:
"Miss, I'm sorry, please get out of the way!"
Xue Yuzhen screamed and was pulled several steps away by Hu Jiong.
The military policemen commanding the surrounding airports were all watching in stunned silence, and even Xiang Xiaoqiang's own security guard seemed a little nervous.
Xiang Xiaoqiang sneered and said:
"Let's get on the plane."
With that said, Xiuxiu got on the plane first. Xiang Xiaoqiang also got on the plane. He stood at the cabin door, waved to the airport commander below and shouted:
"Thank you very much! Let me say hello to you, Commander Li!"
The airport commander finally came to his senses at this time, and nodded quickly and said, "Absolutely." Immediately afterwards, all the guards from one class climbed onto the plane. Hu Jiong was the last one. He let go of Xue Yuzhen, his face turned red and white.
Qianshen said:
"Miss, I'm sorry! The military orders are overwhelming, please forgive me!"
After saying that, he turned around and climbed up the gangway.
Xue Yuzhen rubbed her arms, her face flushed with anger, and tears welling up in her eyes. She stared hard at the cabin door, said nothing, turned around and strode towards the airport terminal. The airport commander hurriedly stepped forward.
Go and say very politely:
"Miss, where do you want to go?"
"Do you have a phone number?" Miss Xue was so angry that she almost went crazy. She strode forward and waved her briefcase, "I want to make a call! Xiang Xiaoqiang, he's finished!"
…
The plane began to accelerate, getting faster and faster on the runway, and then slowly lifted off the ground.
Xiang Xiaoqiang looked down at the airport that was getting smaller and smaller, turned to Hu Jiong and smiled:
"How's it going? Were you a little nervous when you were executing the order just now?"
Hu Jiong was indeed very scared at this time. But he knew that Xiang Xiaoqiang was forced to do so by Nizi, who was not afraid of anything. And he also knew that Xiang Xiaoqiang's use of military orders was to protect him. Just now Xiang Xiaoqiang's
The words "Hu Jiong, I order you" were meant to be heard by everyone present. In this way, when the Procuratorate actually settles the accounts in the future, it will be entirely on Xiaoqiang's own account and has nothing to do with Hu Jiong. He
It's just carrying out military orders.
Hu Jiong smiled carefully and said:
"To be honest, I was a little nervous at the time...but that woman was too ignorant."
Xiang Xiaoqiang smiled slightly, leaned his head on the back of the seat, and sighed:
"To be honest, I feel a little guilty now. You're right, she doesn't know the truth. It's good not to know the truth! I remember when we were purchasing arms... Whether it was the Lianfeng or Qishunfa, when the product was in my hands
When they were criticized, they were sincere, smiled, explained carefully, and promised to improve...but they still dared not do one thing, and that was to give me a red envelope.
"I have been in the Ming Dynasty for so long, established the People's Guard, done so many things, dealt with the cabinet, the East Factory, the army, the navy... among these various departments, I have met all kinds of powerful figures.
, those with more power than me, those with less power than me... However, they never stuffed me with money, and I never stuffed them with money. Things were still done as they should be done, and they were all done well.
"Why? It's because the Ming Dynasty is composed of these 'ignorant' people. The people in the Metropolitan Procuratorate, the courts, the procuratorate, the Ministry of Internal Affairs Investigation Bureau, the police department... are all like the female censor below, who are very ignorant.
.So the Ming Dynasty is the Ming Dynasty today. But everyone knows that in another place, in Beiqing, across the river from us, people there are too 'aware of faces'. Civil servants know faces, officers know faces, judges know faces, and police officers know faces.
Recognizing faces...people have to recognize faces. There, if you don't know faces, you can't even survive."
Except for the roar of the engine, no one spoke in the plane. Everyone looked at Xiang Xiaoqiang and sighed with emotion. Xiuxiu quietly stretched out her hand to the back of Xiang Xiaoqiang's hand and held it gently.
Xiang Xiaoqiang suddenly said:
"If I have a chance, I plan to apologize properly to that female censor."
As soon as he said this, everyone was stunned. Xiuxiu immediately looked at him sensitively and felt uneasy in her heart.
…
The plane flew southeast against the sun at nine o'clock in the morning. An hour and a half later, it landed at the naval base in Zhujiajian. Zhujiajian is the fifth largest island in the Zhoushan Archipelago. To the west is Zhoushan Island, the main island of the East China Sea Fleet.
The port is located more than one nautical mile north of Mount Putuo, the "Buddha Kingdom of the Sea and Sky".
The East China Sea Fleet is the largest fleet of the Ming Dynasty, and it is also the main fleet that has traditionally been responsible for home defense tasks. All six battleships of the Ming Dynasty Navy are usually in the East China Sea Fleet, parked in the home port of Zhoushan Island. There are 1,300 islands in the Zhoushan Archipelago.
There are many, covering an area of more than 20,000 square kilometers, dotted with straits and waterways like a maze. Therefore, the East China Sea Fleet adopts an open defense, with Zhoushan Island as the center, and the main ships are here.
Some large islands outside, especially those with good harbors, have sub-ports where light and heavy cruisers are berthed. A large number of destroyers are also parked in these sub-ports, patrolling from time to time to prevent other countries' submarines or torpedo boats from sneaking into the archipelago.
, to carry out destruction. For more small islands that do not have port conditions, several cement trestles are being built as shallow water docks, and torpedo speedboat bases are being built on the islands. These torpedo boats will patrol in secondary places where destroyers cannot reach
.
Other large islands with towns and better living conditions have concrete submarine caverns, which are submarine bases. The submarine force, mainly composed of girls, is on top.
Powerful coastal defense and air defense forts are built on the higher hills of the Zhoushan Islands, as well as on the islands and reefs in important locations. There are very few artillery blind spots over 7,000 meters, and the entire archipelago can form a dense firepower
net.
However, although there are many islands, they are mainly mountain islands with very little flat land, and there are even fewer islands that can build airports. There are only four big islands such as Zhoushan Island, Zhujiajian, Daishan Island and Qushan Island. Among them,
Zhujiajian has the best conditions and the largest airport, so it also serves as the main naval base of the East China Sea Fleet. Because four airports are not enough, half of the East China Sea Fleet's air defense tasks must be shouldered by coastal airports in Shanghai and Zhejiang. Those coastal airports
, also belongs to the maritime navigation system of the East China Sea Fleet.
The entire East China Sea Fleet is widely distributed on the huge Zhoushan Islands, with sea, land and air three-dimensional cross-defense, home ports, sub-ports, large bases, small bases, large airports, small airports... In Xiang Xiaoqiang's view, this is simply like
A kingdom on the sea.
"Japan has the Seto Inland Sea, and we have the Zhoushan Islands."
Xiang Xiaoqiang was holding the gangway to get off the plane at Zhujiajian Airport, thinking excitedly that this is what a powerful navy should have.
The aviation commander of the East China Sea Fleet came to greet Xiang Xiaoqiang in person.
On the plane, Xiang Xiaoqiang had received a radio report from the East China Sea Fleet, saying that they had damaged the prince's seaplane as required. The seaplane engine was emitting black smoke and had to make an emergency landing. However, the place where the plane landed was not vast.
On the sea surface, it was only a few hundred meters away from Sijiao Mountain. But when the patrol boat rushed to the seaplane and prepared to go up to arrest the person, it found that there were only two pilots. When I asked them, they said that the prince and the entourage
Already swam ashore.
While walking with Xiang Xiaoqiang, the commander of the East China Sea Fleet Aviation Force introduced to him an officer in charge of surface searches: Major Zhang Mingyu.
The young major immediately shook hands with Xiang Xiaoqiang warmly and said with a smile:
"Sir Xiang! Don't you remember me?"
Xiang Xiaoqiang also saw that Zhang Mingyu looked very familiar. He suddenly remembered and laughed:
"Haha, Captain Zhang, it turns out to be you! Okay, okay, we meet again!"
Then, he turned around and introduced Xiuxiu:
"This is the captain of the Kuimu Lang that I told you. Let's kill pirates in Malacca together."
Xiuxiu also showed a look of surprise, shook hands with him with a smile, and said, "I have admired Captain Zhang for a long time." Zhang Mingyu was naturally flattered, and repeatedly said, "I don't dare to be a madam."
After the aviation commander introduced Zhang Mingyu to Xiang Xiaoqiang, he said goodbye and left. Zhang Mingyu was responsible for the rest of the introduction. Zhang Mingyu took Xiang Xiaoqiang and Xiuxiu into an officer's car and headed to Zhujiajian Military Port. In the car
He said that after hearing that the prince jumped out of a plane and swam to Sijiao Mountain, he informed the Sijiaoshan military port to send marines to search for them. However, Sijiao Mountain is very large, covering more than 20 square kilometers, and there are more than ten fishing villages alone.
In addition to the cruiser port, there is also a submarine base. Therefore, there are many cargo ships and liners coming and going on the island. Maybe it will give the prince and others a chance to take advantage of it.
Xiang Xiaoqiang lay in the open-top executive car, feeling the salty sea breeze blowing against his face, and listening to the croaking seabirds above his head, but he did not feel at all relaxed and happy in his heart.
"How far is Sijiao Mountain from here?" he asked.
Zhang Mingyu replied:
"It's more than 80 kilometers to the north of us. But don't worry, adults. It won't take long for us to take a seaplane to the port. Haha, after catching people at noon, I'll treat you to our steamed hairtail live.
It’s steamed, you must have never eaten it before.”
Xiang Xiaoqiang knew that he was pretending to be relaxed and comforting himself, but he still felt relieved. In any case, it was much easier to hunt than on the mainland. No matter how big the island was, it was still an island and he couldn't escape.
As long as the island is blocked and all ships are ordered to stop sailing, the prince will be a turtle in the urn.
So, he began to think about steamed hairtail at noon. Not to mention, he was inland, and the hairtail he usually ate was dried salted fish, and braised in brown sauce. Such fresh steamed hairtail could only be found in Zhoushan, which is rich in hairtail.
You can only eat it in the fishing grounds.
At the Zhujiajian Military Port, a group of people, together with a squad of guards, boarded an "Albatross" water transport plane and flew north. In less than an hour, they landed at the Sijiaoshan Military Port.
There were two tall cruisers and several destroyers parked in the Sijiaoshan Military Port. Xiang Xiaoqiang recognized the Kuimulang among them at a glance.
As soon as they stepped onto the shore, they saw several young junior officers running over angrily to report to Zhang Mingyu. Their faces were all flushed, and they didn't even notice Xiang Xiaoqiang next to them.
"What?!" Zhang Mingyu and Xiang Xiaoqiang shouted at the same time, "That guy hijacked a boat and went to sea again?!"
Xiang Xiaoqiang was about to faint with anger. What did this majestic Ming Dynasty East China Sea Fleet do? A fugitive like a lost dog could actually hijack a ship under their noses?
At this time, several young officers also recognized Xiang Xiaoqiang and exclaimed.
But Xiang Xiaoqiang no longer cared about showing off, and directly asked them to tell them the situation viciously.
It turned out that just when Xiang Xiaoqiang arrived at Zhujiajian Airport, a small liner from the Sijiaoshan Submarine Base was carrying twenty female submarine soldiers on leave, heading northwest to Shanghai. Not even a nautical mile after leaving the port, the captain discovered
There were two people clinging to a rock. They were in ragged clothes and pale skin. They were waving for help. So a small liner sailed over to rescue them.
Unexpectedly, after the girls pulled the two men on board, the two men immediately pulled out two pistols, pointed them at them, and then restrained the captain and helmsman. Their movements were as vigorous as leopards, but there was nothing like that.
Man who fell into the water.
Since it was less than two kilometers away from the military port, all this was seen by the sentry on the shore with binoculars. Then the alarm was sounded, and the patrol boat quickly left the port and followed. But the two men took the twenty female soldiers on board
, and the captain and helmsman were taken as hostages, and they used the microphone to shout that he was the prince of Siam, who was persecuted by the Ming Dynasty, and now there was nothing he could do. Anyone who came over would kill the girls on the ship.
After hearing that he was a Siamese prince, the patrol boats did not dare to take action easily. Now they only dared to follow behind, and did not dare to risk moving forward, let alone shoot.
"What now?" Xiang Xiaoqiang asked angrily.
"Sir Xiang... I'm still following you."
Xiang Xiaoqiang was furious and cursed:
"What are the twenty submariners on the ship doing? Are they restrained by two pistols just like that? Don't you dare to resist?"
The officers nearby looked at each other, but no one dared to speak.
Xiuxiu bit her lip and said softly:
"Sir, those are all girls. Besides, they are on vacation and they don't bring weapons...Sir, you can't ask those girls to be the same as you."
Xiang Xiaoqiang was stunned. He looked at Xiuxiu and suddenly felt that she was right. Yes, those are girls like Xiuxiu. They may also have mothers and younger brothers like Xiuxiu...
When facing the gunpoints of two extremely vicious men, most of them, defenseless, would just pray that they could survive and have a chance to return to their mother and brother.
He sighed, nodded to Xiuxiu, and nodded to the officers as an apology to them. Then he asked:
"What to do now? How are your East China Sea Fleet going to deal with it?"
The officers also looked at each other, obviously without any idea. They waved to Xiaoqiang and said:
"map!"
"Sir," Zhang Mingyu said quickly, "please come with me, there is one in the office building."
The group of people quickly walked into an office building in the military port and set up their headquarters in a conference room.
On the wall is a large map of the East China Sea.
Xiang Xiaoqiang stood in front of the map, frowned and asked:
"That small liner should be heading east?"
"Yes, Sir Xiang. It seems they want to go to Japan."
"How's the range of this small liner? How fast is it?"
Zhang Mingyu replied:
"My lord, the range is three hundred nautical miles, which is barely enough to reach Japan. The speed is still very fast, with a maximum of 24 knots. However, if they want to have enough fuel, they cannot go according to the maximum range. They have to go at the economic speed, which is 15 knots.
"
Xiang Xiaoqiang glanced at Xiu Xiu, and Xiu Xiu said softly:
"36 hours."
"It takes 36 hours to reach the west coast of Kyushu Island, Japan," Xiang Xiaoqiang said thoughtfully, "That's just entering Japan's territorial waters. How long does it take?"
Zhang Mingyu replied again:
"We have a dispute with Japan over the demarcation of territorial waters. About 100 nautical miles to the east, you will enter the disputed waters. There are often Japanese warships patrolling there."
"Well..." Xiang Xiaoqiang lowered his head, pinched his chin, and a glimmer of inspiration flashed in his eyes, "You mean, 150 nautical miles to the east, there will be Japanese warships patrolling regularly..."
"Yes, sir. That is, after their flight of almost 8-12 hours."
Xiang Xiaoqiang pinched his chin and began to walk repeatedly. He became a little excited, patted his forehead, and murmured:
"8 to 12 hours...well, that should be enough for us to prepare..."
"grown ups?"
"And their destination," Xiang Xiaoqiang continued to ponder, "is Japan..."
"Not bad, sir, but..."
Xiang Xiaoqiang stood still and asked everyone else to exit, leaving only Xiuxiu, Hu Jiong and Zhang Mingyu. Then, he expressed the creative ideas in his mind.
Suddenly, several people looked at him dumbfounded. Immediately, Xiu Xiu praised:
"Sir! What an excellent idea! ... I just don't know, Mr. Zhang, do we have the conditions for the East China Sea Fleet?"
Zhang Mingyu was also very excited by this idea. He grinned and said:
"This... I have to ask our commander..."
Xiang Xiaoqiang immediately asked him to coordinate. Then, he asked Xiu Xiu to move out of the radio station and send a report to the People's Guard Headquarters, asking them to select ten to twenty agents with excellent Japanese skills. They should be young, not seasick, and finally
It's good to be familiar with warships.
Then, he sent a long top-secret telegram to Shi Shi Ge Ge, telling her his plan and asking her to polish it. He knew that Shi Shi Ge Ge was a master at this kind of plan.
Hey hey, hey, he won't die if you play with him.
Soon Fourteen Princess also called back. She also felt that Xiang Xiaoqiang's idea was very feasible, but it might also involve some "small issues" at the political level, international law level, and tomorrow's relations. But in her eyes, these
It's all easy to do.
After all aspects were coordinated, preparations for the plan began in full swing.
At the same time, several patrol boats of the East China Sea Fleet were still not far away, following the small liner hijacked by the prince.
…
Nine hours later, at around eight o'clock in the evening, the prince and Pachai hijacked the small liner and sailed into the disputed waters between tomorrow and Japan.
The prince looked at the chart and became more and more excited. Unexpectedly, this time he would be able to survive from a desperate situation. Once he entered the sea area where Japanese ships were infested, he would be 80% successful. Once he found the Japanese ship, he would send out a distress signal. Behind him
These Ming army small patrol boats were helpless.
Talk about Cao Cao, Cao Cao is here.
"Your Highness! Your Highness!!"
Pachai shouted excitedly, pointing to a ship with lights on in the distance in the vast night ahead. The ship was probably only a thousand meters away. According to the outline of the ship illuminated by the lights on the ship, it should be a warship.
It looks like a destroyer.
The prince also became excited, his chest was beating wildly, and he prayed that it must be a Japanese warship.
"Speed up!" he ordered, "get closer to the warship!"
The captain knew that once they came into contact with a Japanese warship, although the prince would run away, they would be safe. So they were very cooperative.
The warship was cruising slowly, and the small liner was able to get close to it very quickly even if it increased its speed.
Getting closer and closer, I finally saw clearly that under the light, a bright red sun flag was flying on the stern of the ship. It was the flag of the Japanese Navy.
On the bow of the ship, the name of the ship - (Fubuki) is painted with snow-white paint.
"Japanese destroyer!! Japanese destroyer!!!"
The prince and Pachai cheered wildly and cried with joy. They had been on the run for dozens of hours in misery and were forced into desperate situations several times. Until now, the two of them were in rags and were blinded. All of this was finally coming to an end.
Where is the Japanese destroyer in front of me? This is obviously my father!
Suddenly, the Japanese destroyer quickly turned around, accelerated its speed, and its bow rolled over the white waves and quickly approached it. At the same time, the signal lights on the bridge flashed one after another.
Something more terrifying happened——
"Dong dong dong dong..."
The machine guns on the destroyer roared, and the flames flashed. Suddenly, dozens of meters in front of the small liner, a row of rows of columns rose up one after another.
This should be a warning shot.
Sure enough, all the girls on the small liner were so scared that they lay down on the deck, and the captain also lay down, shivering and touching the signal light on the ship.
Pachai turned pale with fright. The prince grabbed the captain and asked sternly:
"What happened? What did they say?"
The captain helped the crew to stand up, glanced at the other party's signal, and said in a trembling voice:
"They said: You have entered the territorial waters of the Empire of Japan and ordered you to turn around and return immediately, otherwise they will be sunk..."
The prince slapped him on the head and cursed:
"Then why are you still standing there? Send the signal back quickly! Say I am Prince Ananta of Siam! Ask for asylum in Japan!"
The captain didn't need to say much, he immediately patted the signal light and went back as the prince said.
After a while, the signal light came on on the destroyer:
"As His Royal Highness the Prince of Siam, we welcome you to board the ship."
