Chapter 1014 Eight Ga!the bastard

Late night four days later.

At the No. [-] wharf on the Neihe River in Anqing, two Japanese gunboats slowly approached a fleet on the river after anchoring. Ozawagawa stood on the deck of one of the gunboats and waved goodbye to the shore. Gui Youguang waved his hand and communicated in a low voice from time to time.

"President, as soon as the grain ship passes the Japanese blockade, it will find a shoal to stop and unload. At that time, Ozawa will let the gunboats be on guard upstream and downstream. I went to the telegraph office to contact Shancheng. Wu Chunyang has already made arrangements. At that time, he will personally lead the team to respond, and there will be no problems."

"Well, that's good, let's go."

After hearing Gui Youguang's report, Zuo Zhong put on his hat and turned to walk towards the exit of the pier. The Japanese naval soldiers along the way seemed to have not seen them. The two passed the checkpoint and walked out of the gate of the naval base. There is still a bit of prestige among his subordinates.

Outside the door, Wang Duzhai, who had been waiting for a long time, saw two "Gods of Wealth" and the backer coming, trotted forward, nodded and bowed and lined up the horses. "What I said before is even more convinced.

During the war, food was a hard currency. Being able to raise so much food and send it to Anqing within four days showed the strength of the opponent. With the help of such a big shot, Wang's good days were coming.

Amidst his flattery, Zuo Zhong and Gui Youguang set off on their way home, and from time to time they encountered patrols from the gendarmerie, perhaps accompanied by Wang Duzhai, a big traitor, but the patrols did not step forward to inquire, and the three of them It didn't take long to get back to the hotel.

After dismissing the obsequious Wang Duzhai, the two returned to their guest rooms. They did not discuss anything related to the mission in the room. Although the room had been cleaned, there was no need for them to take risks. They had to keep their eyes open even when they were sleeping in the enemy-occupied area. only eye.

Lying on the bed, Gui Youguang put his hands behind his head, full of doubts in his heart. He didn't understand why the deputy director gave Ozawagawa so many yen, and he didn't understand why he asked the other party to deliver a batch of grain to the mountain city. I don't know why before they came to Anqing, the general affairs had to allocate a large sum of money to Tokyo.

But after thinking about it, the big bald head fell asleep. Or say that people who are heartless have a high quality of sleep. The room gradually quieted down. There was the sound of Japanese patrol boots stepping on the stone road.

Inside the gendarmerie not far away.

The captain who was in charge of interrogating Cai Shengchu put down the phone cursingly, and slapped the table in front of him hard. Damn Ozawa even took the gunboat to Changcheng. Doesn't the other party know how important their escort mission is?

After greeting Ozawagawa's family, he sat back on the stool helplessly. Without the escort of the navy, he would never let the target leave the gendarmerie, let alone go to Jinling or Shanghai by land at the risk of death. .

There is only one reason, the government's new Fourth Army is too rampant.

去年9月，一支80多辆卡车后勤车队刚刚出城就遇到埋伏，损失车辆50余辆，死伤70余人，丢失步枪21支、子弹700余发、防毒面罩20余套、指南针20余个、文件两挑、照相机两架、食品罐头200余箱及其他用品。

The next month, the new Fourth Army destroyed the road from Anqing to Tongcheng, and the nearby garrison went to support it, but was ambushed again. 1 detachment leader and 28 soldiers were killed, 28 long guns, 1 pistol, 1 military flag, and [-] soldiers were lost. A batch of supplies, and even the radio stations that accompanied the army were taken away by the underground party.

What's even more exasperating is that it didn't take long for the other party to set up an ambush again in the same place, and the imperial┴ army suffered heavy losses again. He didn't bother to recall the specific losses. Every time he recalled, his face was hot, as if Was slapped.

Being defeated by a group of remnant soldiers who didn't even have machine guns or artillery, this is no longer an explanation for underestimating the enemy. The empire has indeed occupied a large area of ​​the national capital, but at the same time its troops have been diluted. When they leave the city, the imperial army is already powerless Control vast rural areas.

Under such circumstances, taking Cai Shengchu to Jinling is tantamount to handing over the other party to the underground party, and perhaps taking the lives of several or even dozens of imperial warriors. What should the family do.

"idiot."

The captain cursed softly, and decided to wait for Ozawagawa and the gunboat to come back. The mission belongs to the empire, and his life is his own. He is not one of those ordinary red deer who is not cheap enough to go to the empire just for a postcard. The point of devotion.

He closed the file with a snap, and slowly left the office. As for Cai Shengchu, he didn't have to go to the interrogation. He just let the other party recover from his injuries, so that he would not die before he was in the hands of the Jinling Gendarmerie. He couldn't bear this responsibility, and he didn't want to. burden.

In the next few days, the Anqing military police stopped a lot, and the traitors such as Wang Duzhai also kept a low profile. It was tied behind the back and thrown on the side of the road, waiting to be sent to the northeast.

This morning, Zuo Zhong, who was wandering around the No. [-] Pier, suddenly heard three long and two short sirens from above the boat in the distance. He immediately heard the sound and saw two gunboats approaching the port from a distance. The grain transport fleet continued to go down the river, speeding back to Shanghai.

"President, Ozawagawa is back."

Gui Youguang beamed, and said in a low voice, it seems that the food handover went smoothly without any accidents.

"Go and meet him."

Zuo Zhong said lightly, but he was not as optimistic as the big bald head in his heart. He felt the grenade in the space and strode towards the pier. Don't relax your vigilance at any time. This is an iron law of intelligence work. Whoever violates it , waiting for him is not only death, but also endless torture.

The two walked to the gate of Pier No. [-] familiarly, and entered the naval garrison after being searched by the Japanese army at the gate. Zuo Zhong kept scanning the camps on both sides of the road from the corner of his eye, carefully observing the surrounding situation, and returning home. Youguang came to the pier step by step, watching the gunboat getting closer and closer to the shore.

As the gunboat slammed into the tires on the side of the trestle, Ozawagawa couldn't wait to jump off the boat without waiting for the boat to come to a stop. He laughed and stretched out his right hand to Zuo Zhong, with a very excited expression on his face.

"Mr. Nan Jia, I haven't seen you for a few days. Everything is alright. Let's go to the restaurant. I'll treat you today." He shook Zuo Zhong's hand, said loudly, and then approached and whispered.

"This time it went very well. I have already issued a certificate for the grain transport ship. The navy and inspectors in Shanghai should not suspect it. Even if something goes wrong, it doesn't matter. I have a few classmates who work in the Shanghai navy. As long as they are willing to spend money, All problems are not problems."

It’s really not easy to learn, and it’s only a few days of hard work after learning badly. The former frustrated alcoholic, the shame of the Imperial Navy, even learned how to make money. Even if he doesn't urge him, the other party will take the initiative to ask for the next transaction.

After half an hour.

It was the private room last time. Zuo Zhong, Gui Youguang, and Ozawachuan drank wine and chatted about the course of their trip, but no one mentioned who the party who received the goods was. There is only one person or force that has ordered such a large amount of food, and that is the government officials┴.

But speculation is guesswork, as long as the window paper is not pierced, it will be fine. If something happens in the future, both parties can completely presume that they don't know about it. Intentional capitalism and unintentional capitalism are two concepts. With this tacit understanding, only gossip, not sensitive topics.

After chatting for a while, Zuo Zhong put down his chopsticks and gave Gui Youguang a wink. Gui Youguang immediately got up and walked out of the private room, closing the door and standing outside to prevent anyone from eavesdropping. This confused Ozawagawa, and he immediately asked road.

"Nan Jia-jun, what happened?"

He was a little panicked when he said that. The risk of this kind of business is big enough, but the profit is also big. He doesn't want to just do a one-shot deal, and who would dislike a lot of money.

When Zuo Zhong heard the other party's words, he first sighed heavily, and then showed a shameful expression on his face, and said something that made Xiao Zechuan's heart skip a beat while sighing.

"Ozawa-kun, I'm sorry for you. I didn't know until after you left that several radio stations and a large amount of sulfonamide were hidden in the batch of grain. It is said that there are also several pieces of imperial military information."

"Nani!!"

Xiao Zechuan was so frightened that he stood up directly, and his face turned pale. Whether it was a radio station or sulfonamide, they were all contraband of the highest level, and they were never allowed to be transported to the mountain city.

Military intelligence is a red line. Whoever touches it will die. He just wants to make some money. How did this happen? Thinking of this, Ozawagawa's eyes flashed fiercely, and he touched his waist.

Not many people know about this matter. As long as Nanjia Ichiro and his followers are killed, there will be no proof. Anyway, the money has already been obtained, and it will be a big deal to find someone to cooperate in the future.

After Zuo Zhong finished speaking, he kept paying attention to the other party's reaction. Seeing that he wanted to kill people to silence him, he didn't panic. He picked up his teacup and took a sip of hot tea, looking at Ozawachuan with a half-smile.

"Ozawa-kun, are you sure you want to do this? My subordinates and I are not the only ones who know about this matter. There are people from Shanghai and the mountain city involved. It's useless if you kill us."

Xiao Zechuan slumped on the chair when he heard the words, yes, radio stations, medicines, and information could not be flown onto the ship, someone must have hidden them in the food, unless he killed them all, it would have no effect.

But how did Nanjia Ichiro know that there was entrainment in the grain, was it revealed by the people of the Republic of China, but why did the other party tell Nanjia Ichiro, he suddenly raised his head and said bitterly.

"Who are you, a businessman will not have access to radio and intelligence!"

"Crack~crack~crack"

Zuo Zhong smiled and clapped his hands, his white teeth gleaming in the sunlight: "Ozawa-kun, you are indeed very smart, but, are you sure you want to know my identity?"

Ozawagawa was speechless, just like they didn't mention the person who received the goods just now, he didn't want and couldn't know the real identity of "Nanjia Ichiro", Baga, this bastard!
