Chapter 953 Our itinerary was leaked
Huang Baitao was terrified when he encountered a sniper attack and cried out loudly:
"Quick! Send this commander aboard."
Huang Shan shouted loudly: "Quick! Cover the commander."
The guards surrounded Huang Baitao and slowly retreated towards the transport ship.
Huang Baitao hunched over, his face pale with nervousness.
Seeing him in such a miserable state, Qing Mu Lianhua whispered to Zeng Yun:
"Uncle! This man is a coward. It would be better if he didn't die."
Zeng Yun looked at Xu Zeng who was hiding in the crowd and nodded, "Indeed! It would be better to kill that hateful and cunning guy Xu Zeng."
Qing Mu Lianhua shook her head and said, "Xu Zeng is now showing goodwill to you. Keeping him may be of great use to us. Let's let our Qing Mu spy leave."
Zeng Yun nodded and said, "Okay! I'll spare Xu Zeng's life for now."
He took off his hat and waved it casually into the air.
The gunshots stopped, the assassins went away, and the dock gradually became quiet.
Xiao Lin Zhiye stepped forward and said with a smile: "Miss Lin! Let's also board this Yu No. 1 ship."
Qing Mu Lianhua glanced at Huang Baitao and the others who were rushing to the transport ship in a panic, and shook his head and said, "No! This ship is too big. Let's find a smaller transport ship."
There was something else in her words, which was that she was worried that the big ship would be bombed by Japanese planes.
Zeng Yun pointed to a boat and said, "Qiao'er! Uncle has arranged that boat for you."
Qing Mu Lianhua smiled bitterly and said, "Uncle! Huang Baitao used the Yu No. 1 ship, Ning Caiwei used the Yu No. 5 ship, so when it's our turn, we can only use the Yu No. 7 ship?"
Zeng Yun said angrily, "Ning Caiwei's uncle is Ning Changde, the chief of the military supply department, and he could only get ship No. 7. His uncle is already quite powerful. Besides, ship No. 1 is so big that it is hard not to be bombed by planes."
At this time, Huang Shan ran over, pointed at the Yu No. 1 ship, and said with a smile: "Miss Lin! Commander Huang invites you to take our big ship."
Qing Mu Lianhua was afraid of being bombed, so she shook her head and said, "Thank you for your kindness! My uncle has already found a boat for us."
Huang Shan said anxiously, "Miss Lin! No matter how good the boats here are, they are not as good as our No. 1 boat. Come over quickly. Commander Huang has already opened the French champagne for you."
Qingmu Lianhua ignored him and strode towards the Yu No. 7 ship. Xiaolin Zhiye and others hurriedly followed.
Huang Shan grabbed Xiao Lin Zhiye and threatened, "Advisor Gao! If you don't take boat No. 1, Commander Huang will send the 77th Division to the front line to face Doihara Kenji directly."
Xiaolin Zhiye was eager to return to Doihara Kenji's army. This was exactly what he wanted, so he said bluntly: "Tell me the truth! I, Gao Yang, am eager to fight on the front line and defeat Doihara Kenji."
After saying this, he pushed Huang Shan away and followed Qing Mu Lianhua onto the Yu No. 7 transport ship.
Huang Shan pointed at the group of Qing Mu Lianhua and shouted angrily: "You are a bunch of rubbish. You will regret not obeying the commander's orders."
At this time, Wang Sheng ran over with a suitcase and said with a smile:
"Adjutant Huang! Why are you so angry?"
Huang Shan pulled him and said affectionately, "Instructor Wang! You are going to the front line too. Which unit will you join?"
Wang Sheng smiled bitterly and said, "33rd Army Group! Alas! That is the front line of the Zaoyi Campaign. It is hard to say whether I can return to Chongqing alive."
Huang Shan suggested: "Instructor Wang! Why don't you go to our 77th Army? I'll tell Commander Huang that with your military talent, you will definitely be able to do a lot."
Wang Sheng thought about it and said thoughtfully: "Adjutant Huang! Can you let me think about it?"
Huang Shan was met with a cold shoulder and said angrily, "Think about it and don't come."
After saying this, he turned and ran towards the Yu No. 1 ship, leaving Wang Sheng alone in the wind.
Han Li shouted from the bow of Yu No. 7: "Coach Wang! Come here quickly."
Wang Sheng came back to his senses and hurried to the Yu No. 7 ship. He ran two steps and stopped, smiling:
"Old Han! I'd better take the Yu No. 1 ship with Commander Huang."
After saying this, he turned around and ran excitedly towards the Yu No. 1 ship.
Huang Shan saw him following him and said angrily, "Instructor Wang! You can only board the ship if you join our 77th Army Group. Otherwise, take another ship."
Wang Sheng was in a dilemma carrying a large suitcase, and nodded and said, "Okay! I will join your 77th Army Group, and hope to be able to exert my outstanding military command ability."
Huang Shan looked at him incredulously and said with a smile: "You are quite confident. It seems that you are very compatible with our commander's temperament. Please!"
Wang Sheng said in a long voice, respectfully: "Please——!"
On the surface of the Yangtze River, ship Yu No. 5 is sailing downstream.
The central cabin is filled with radios and other equipment.
Minister Chen took off his mask and shook his head, saying, "Boy! If you hadn't asked me to wear this mask and leave early, I would have been assassinated by the Japanese spies."
Xiang Chu looked up into the sky and said with a wry smile: "Minister! This is just the assassination on the ground. The assassination from the air has not yet begun."
Minister Chen said in astonishment: "Could it be that the Japs will send planes to bomb our ships?"
Xiang Chu nodded and said, "The weather is so good today, it is inevitable that we will encounter bombing."
After he finished speaking, he took out a thick notebook and handed it to Ning Caiwei, saying with a smile:
"Caiwei! Place a radio at the call sign location of the Japanese 14th Army Aviation Squadron."
"Yes!"
Ning Caiwei nodded and hurriedly took the notebook to carry out his orders.
Minister Chen scolded: "You kid, don't use my chief of staff as a telegraphist."
Ning Caiwei smiled and said, "Minister! I, as the chief of staff, am here to cover up for my man. For safety reasons, these secrets cannot be known to others."
Xiang Chu smiled and said, "The one who knows me is Caiwei!"
Ning Caiwei said angrily, "This is happening in front of Minister Chen. I'm so jealous."
Xiang Chu said disapprovingly: "Minister Chen is not an outsider. I will give him something to do."
After saying this, he flipped out a map before Minister Chen could beat him up, and said with a wry smile, "Minister! The latest troop deployment map of both sides. Look at where Kenji Doihara has advanced to."
Minister Chen took the map, unfolded it and looked at it. He was surprised and said, "Doihara Ken'er is too close to the 33rd Army's command post. What does he want to do?"
Xiang Chu said thoughtfully: "Doihara Xian'er wants to take down Commander Zhang's command post, so Commander Zhang should move his command post as soon as possible."
Minister Chen nodded and said, "Okay! Chief of Staff! Send a quick telegram to order the 33rd Army to move its command post."
"Yes!"
Ning Caiwei hurriedly accepted the order.
At this time, a radio station with the call sign of the Japanese 14th Air Force received a message.
Xiang Chu stepped forward to transcribe and translate the message, then shook his head and said, "The Japs are really going to send bombers to bomb us. It seems our itinerary has been leaked."
Minister Chen said anxiously: "Quick! Send a telegram to other ships to prepare for covert navigation."
"Yes!"
Ning Caiwei hurriedly accepted the order and was busy having fun.
Xiang Chu smiled and said, "Minister! Let's dock our ship and leave at night."
Minister Chen asked in confusion: "Are you not leaving yet?"
Xiang Chu nodded and said, "It is important to save our lives first. If we enter the Three Gorges, it will be difficult for us to maneuver and we will be sitting ducks for the Japanese bombers."
Minister Chen heard the Japanese's chattering on the radio and said helplessly, "Okay! It seems that a Japanese spy really reported our whereabouts to the Japanese."
