Chapter 14: The Chain of Hatred
"Beep-b-c-click-" Unidentified electrical signals emanating from beneath the chaotic waters of Pearl Harbor resemble ultrasound waves from an electronic device. Yi 8, who was still wandering outside Hong Kong www.biquge.info was the first to discover this set of mysterious telegraphs, and compared the known code books of the American Federation and found that it could not be explained at all.
"Not code?"
It was the first time that I8 had heard a non-coded type of electrical signal, and through her ears, she could catch strange vibrations coming from the water. It was as if they were talking to someone directly with an electrical signal, but they couldn't understand each other's language. The submarine ship mother is familiar with this method, and this is also a killer weapon they are currently training to prevent the enemy from breaking the code, but unfortunately it is too difficult for them.
The water pressure clock shows that it is now about 12 noon, and according to the original plan, the main aircraft carrier fleet is recovering the second wave of carrier-based aircraft. Why is there a mysterious electrical signal at this time? Unable to make a rational judgment on this situation, I8 chose to continue blocking the channel as originally planned after recording this mysterious electrical signal.
And hundreds of nautical miles away, a mysterious black battleship is anchored on the edge of a desert island. It's more like a steel blue whale than a battleship, and the power of the gun's guns is comparable to that of a Nagato-class battleship. There was no one on the deck of the battleship, or her deck was not designed to allow people to move around, and the uneven armor plates were densely erected with anti-aircraft machine guns, secondary guns, and two carrier-based runways, and 10 16-inch 3-company main guns were also installed in two teams at the forward end of the battleship.
As the electrical signal ended, out of it came a hooded child, who looked to be only 12 or 13 years old, with blue skin, sharp teeth, no shoes on his feet, and a long tail in the shape of a dragon's head.
She walked to the railing of the battleship, her tail automatically erected, and her frightening mouth opened not only two serial cannons, but also a torpedo-like weapon.
"Ahh......h Japan's aircraft carrier fleet is even stronger than I expected," the kid let out a oozing laugh, seemingly very happy. "Destroy them all, destroy them! Let the war ghosts wail over the flames of Pearl Harbor! ”
As the child laughed, LED light flashed under her hood. "Hey, is it Mr. Hanakaiin? Everything is the same as your judgment, and it seems that the Japanese side does not dare to send a third wave of carrier-based aircraft to bomb the oil storage station, which is 4.5 million tons of crude oil, which is enough for me to eat for several years. ”
The child drooled as she spoke, even the ship's mother didn't have the habit of eating oil bomb steel and aluminum, and her skin color didn't look like a human-related type.
"I'm sorry, but I'm a little excited at the thought of something delicious. I know, I won't swallow it privately, Mr. Hanakaiin, don't worry. I will supervise the work of post-Pearl Harbor renovations. ”
The call ended, and the kid walked back to the battleship. After that, the battleship let out a long roar, and slowly sank into the water, disappearing without a trace.

At the same time as the victory at Pearl Harbor, half of the distant Chinese land had already been conquered, and the newly established Chinese government was not recognized by the general public, but this did not affect the Japanese Army's forced strategy of resource plunder. In the face of deadly guns and bayonets, there will always be people who choose to compromise, and there are many ways to deal with such uncooperative Chinese according to the bad habits of the army.
The Red Party actually controlled the northwestern part of China and blocked the Army's westward offensive, but the Northwest Army's winter sweep operations dealt a great blow to the Red Party's rural base areas. In the winter of 1941, the Red Party had a very difficult time, and even in the city of Yan'an, even the party cadres had only a little coarse grain.
Chen Minguang has been promoted to the rank of Southern United Front Instructor because of his outstanding achievements in organizing anti-Japanese local armed forces on the front line and his meritorious service in battle, and he is specifically responsible for carrying out work behind enemy lines with Wuhan as the center. Since the fall of Wuhan, a large number of brave men and women of the Red Party in the south have been brutally killed, and there is no suitable candidate within the Red Party, so it is reasonable that Chen Minguang was entrusted with a heavy task.
He came to the Yan'an Revolutionary Base Area precisely to accept the appointment and to sum up and publicize his work experience after joining the local armed forces. He was received by the garrison regiment directly under the headquarters, and a few young men who had never read a book had heard from the political commissar of the regiment that there was a senior official in the south, an anti-Japanese hero with great achievements, and he thought that he was an old party member in his forties and fifties. As a result, a young man a few years older than them came, and they all surrounded them at once.
"The political commissar told us that you are an anti-Japanese hero, a big man who has received the chairman's telegram report award. We don't have much to entertain you here. It was noon, and several young soldiers did not come empty-handed, one carrying half a piece of bacon, the other carrying a basket of dried nests, and a few looking for some local food that Chen Minguang did not know.
When Chen Minguang arrived, he looked at the living conditions of the masses along the road, and their southern guerrillas, who had received all-round material support from the Comintern, had much better food and clothing. It's not that Chen Minguang hasn't eaten wild vegetables, but he hasn't seen anyone in the south who lives on these for three meals a day.
Suddenly, this anti-Japanese hero who had been fighting on the battlefield for several years was also moved, maybe these soldiers who entertained him had not eaten meat for several years, and they carried guns to the battlefield at a young age for the Anti-Japanese War, perhaps they had already experienced the baptism of war, and experienced the life and death of their comrades.
Just as the house was busy cooking on the fire, and Chen Minguang himself joined in to help, the door was opened. The political commissar of the garrison regiment personally opened the door and made it very solemn.
"Report to Secretary Zhang, Comrade Chen, we have arranged to live in this big house temporarily. You see, there he is. ”
The enthusiastic political commissar of the regiment did not expect his politeness to be exchanged for Zhang Linhan's eyes and reprimand.
"Comrade Chen is an advanced representative of our party and a national hero. You're going to let him cook lunch together? ”
Since Zhang Linhan finished his mission as a commissioner in the north, he was transferred to the headquarters to become the deputy secretary of the Propaganda Department because of his outstanding achievements in liaising with the Comintern and exchanging information, but in fact he was the general person in charge of international intelligence work. This time, Chen Minguang brought the information collected by the Comintern's friend "Blue", which naturally belonged to his work.
"Alright, you all go out. I have important matters to discuss with Comrade Chen. As soon as Zhang Linhan beckoned, his subordinates directly under the intelligence department walked in and took out hot dishes from the Qing Dynasty sandalwood lunch box he was carrying. After a while, a table of exquisite Jiangnan Su dishes has been set up.
Zhang Linhan personally pulled out the chair and invited the other party to sit down, "Comrade Chen, I have admired your name for a long time. I know you must have not eaten yet, so you prepared a side dish. We sat down to eat and talk. ”
The people of the garrison regiment saw Secretary Zhang, and they immediately got interested and left. Chen Minguang looked at the high-ranking officials of the headquarters who were not much different from himself, and his brows couldn't help frowning. If he didn't want to get into trouble, he would definitely walk away.
"You don't have to be polite, Secretary Zhang is one of the best contributors in our party. As a poor scholar, I relied on the full assistance of the Comintern to raise a guerrilla force in the south and contribute my modest strength to the great cause of resistance against Japan. Chen Minguang stepped forward to salute, although he was very unhappy, but for the important things that Lan instructed, he had to follow this Secretary Zhang.
"Where, well, the two of us are the same age, so don't be polite to each other. Sit down and have a drink and make friends. Zhang Linhan's favorite thing is this set of courtesy and polite words, he saw that Chen Minguang was also a little bookish, and praised him again and again, and he also had a good impression of Chen Minguang. After all, if you can get in touch with "Lan", a big man in the Comintern, through Chen Minguang, you may be able to get more information in the future.
Zhang Linhan's subordinates sent a pot of aged Hetao wine, and the two drank a cup of wine, which can be regarded as a friendship.
"Comrade Chen has come all the way, do you know what major events have happened in the world in the past few days?"
Of course, Chen Minguang didn't buy newspapers, and besides, the newspapers in Yan'an didn't have international news. He asked casually by feeling. "The Japanese have operations against South Asia? They are hungry for the abundant resources of the South Seas for more than a day or two. ”
"Yes, they've landed in the Philippines. General Mack didn't even fight, and fled from the Philippines first. I don't think the Philippines will be able to resist for long. ”
Chen Minguang did not expect the Japanese offensive to be so rapid, and the first step was to directly move the "cheese" of the American Federation. "Hmph, that's better, once the United States and Japan start a war, not to mention that Japan's victory rate is less than 30%, the pace of attack on our country will also slow down. It is a great opportunity for our party to rise up and regain lost territory. ”
"What a fart!" Zhang Linhan also opened his mouth with the strength of the wine, "Do you know what happened on December 7th?" ”
It's December 10, and Chen Minguang hasn't learned about international current affairs since he arrived at the beginning of the month. "What happened?"
"The Combined Pacific Fleet of the American Federation stationed at Pearl Harbor was attacked by Japanese aircraft carriers, 8 battleships, 3 were sunk on the spot, 3 were incapacitated, and only two needed repairs before they could be put into service again. The rest of the ships, large and small, lost a total of nearly 100 ships. Its port airport was bombed and more than 400 planes were destroyed. More than 10,000 soldiers were killed that day, and countless wounded and missing. ”
Hearing the news, Chen Minguang couldn't help but feel shocked, and he also felt a little guilty in his heart. Lan told him a month ago that Japan was going to war with the American Federation, but he didn't pay attention to it, always thinking that even if Japan attacked Nanyang, it would be a matter of the next year, so he didn't report it to the organization.
"Do you dare to say that the war between the United States and Japan is good news for us?" Zhang Linhan took a deep breath and seemed a little sad. "Once the American Federation is defeated, what other forces in the anti-fascist camp can help? The German army has already stepped on the outskirts of Moscow, and the British Empire is now unable to sail even merchant ships through the English Channel. I can't imagine what the world would be like after the loss of the American Union. ”
After the meal, Chen Minguang handed over all the information that Lan gave him to Zhang Linhan with a heavy heart. After that, he returned to his residence, and could not help but fall into confusion, and in order to take revenge, he did not hesitate to embark on the road of leading the local guerrillas, until he became a well-known anti-Japanese hero in Wuhan. Hundreds of Japanese soldiers were killed by his own hands, but he did not feel the slightest relief, but the hatred that pressed on his heart became heavier and heavier, and he longed to slash all the pilots who participated in the bombing of Changzhou on November 4, 1939.
