Chapter 424: The Devil Is Coming
The patriotic overseas Chinese are not as hypocritical as He Jianye thought, and they all returned to China to participate in the Anti-Japanese War; They have long been prepared to endure hardships and even shed blood and sacrifice; When they heard that the train was scheduled to depart at 5 a.m., they did not say much, but nodded in agreement;
He Jianye had dinner with the medical team at the Guangzhou Hotel, and after a hurried dinner, He Jianye came to Dr. Chen's room;
"Doctor, the equipment and supplies must be loaded overnight, the materials are easy to say, but I don't know about those equipment; Do you want to send a personal guide, I have the people and the car ready; He Jianye said a little embarrassed,
"Commander He, no; You've done enough, and we Chinese-Americans don't go back to China to enjoy it; I have informed you that you wait below for half an hour, and we will go together; Dr. Chan said,
"No, Doctor; You have to rest well, and there will be no problems with supplies and equipment; All you need to do is send someone to guide you, and at 4 o'clock in the morning, I'll send a car to pick you up. He Jianye hurriedly said that now the vehicles are tight, and he doesn't have so many manpower and material resources to take care of them, so he has to be busy first; Load all the goods into the car and pick up people, although you will be tired, but it is better than being in a hurry on the spot;
"Commander He, you misunderstood what I meant; We won't cause you any trouble, don't worry! We didn't come back to be uncles, let's go! As he spoke, Dr. Chen had already begun to pack up his personal belongings, and after a short period of time, a wooden box was finished;
At Guangzhou Railway Station, at 5 a.m., all materials and equipment have been safely loaded; On the seats in the carriages of the three first-class trains, sweaty brothers and members of the medical team collapsed on their seats. The train left Guangzhou and headed for Wuhan with a beeping call......
"Today is October 10th, and I have been in Guangzhou for 5 days; Finally hit the road with what he wanted; Big brother still has a way! The train doesn't need to go to Wuhan once, you can directly transfer to the Zhuping line in Zhuzhou to go to Nanchang; Just wait, how can I tell the doctor about this? He still thinks we're going to pass through Wuhan! He Jianye felt a headache, and kept thinking about all kinds of rhetoric in his mind, so he fell asleep in a daze......
The configuration of the first-class carriage is very good, He Jianye also temporarily hired special service personnel, a carriage can only be less than 20 people to rest in the seat in the carriage, not crowded at all, there is a small table in the middle of the seat for passengers to place small objects;
In Zeng Da's surprised gaze, Zhu Ying took a blanket and gently covered He Jianye's body, so that He Jianye, who felt a little cold in his sleep, wrapped it vigorously and continued to sleep......
"I still know it's cold! Sweating profusely, I didn't dry it before going to sleep. Zhu Ying muttered and left......
He Jianye fell asleep on the train, and He Fuchu of Qingjiang felt uncomfortable; Holding the telegram sent by He Jianye when he left Guangzhou, he was in a dilemma; Of course, solving the train line is not a dilemma for him, but the mode of transportation after the arrival of the No. 15 materials in Hong Kong makes He Fuchu feel a dilemma;
"Railway transportation is not only safe and fast, but also relatively low cost, even counting the cost of dotting along the way is much cheaper than road transportation, what is the consideration?" He Fuchu looked up and thought,
"But the second child won't come nonsense! Although the problem of train wagons has not been solved yet, it is only a matter of time, as long as the national army on the Jiujiang front line and the Nanxun line hold the defense line and stalemate with the devils; So there will always be a time when the train wagons on the Guangdong-Hanzhou Railway will be solved, will the devil raid Guangzhou? "He Fuchu hit a spirit,
"Someone coming" He Fuchu shouted in the study,
"Sir," a steward came in,
"Is there no news from Guangzhou yet?" He Fuchu asked,
"Master, the second master has taken more than 5,000 tons of materials on the road, the train is in Zhuzhou, and we used to transport materials back to Nanchang is a route, Zhuzhou has been dotted up, the train does not have to stop, or the old rules, after adding water and coal, it will go directly to Nanchang; If there is no problem, you can arrive in Nanchang at about ten o'clock in the evening on the 12th. The steward answered,
"I'm not asking about this, I'm asking about the supplies that will arrive in Hong Kong on the 15th; Has the wagon in Guangzhou been connected? He Fuchu frowned and said,
"Not yet, now the wagons in Guangzhou must be approved by the provincial government; They said that at most two carriages would be attached to the back of each train, and it would take more than a month to complete the whole train. The steward replied,
"Tell Lao Li not to be afraid of spending money; As long as you can get the wagon, even 50 small yellow croakers are better than walking on the road! He Fuchu confessed,
"Sir, it's not a matter of money now; Steward Li said that he couldn't get it at all now; Are you looking for the chairman of Guangdong Province? The steward advised,
"Hey! Wu Tiecheng! I know him, but my friendship is very shallow! Forget it! If the situation is really tense to the point where every train needs to be approved, I'm afraid he won't dare to give us a wagon casually! When the time comes, he won't be able to pay the Nationalist Government, and he probably won't help me with that. He Fuchu said,
"Master, what should I do? It's been a few days since the supplies arrived, do you really have to wait a month? And the steward said,
"Let's do it first! Let's see how the situation develops! If it really doesn't work, you can only follow the advice of the second child, take the Ganyue Road, the long-distance train is not easy to do, and the short distance from Guangzhou to Qujiang is still easy to do; It's just that so many materials have to pass through Meiling Pass, Wan'an, Ji'an and other places, all the way is 800 kilometers long, and Ganyue Road has been traveling through the mountains and mountains, I'm afraid the loss will be very large! He Fuchu still couldn't make up his mind and decided to wait;
"Master, I'll go out first if there's nothing else to do?" The steward said,
"Let Lao Li now collect livestock and cars in Guangzhou and store fuel; Pack horses, oxen, mules, donkeys, etc., as long as they can pull carts, prepare first! Even if we don't need these things in the future, we won't lose money. He Fuchu said,
"Yes, sir!" The steward saw He Fuchu wave his hand, and immediately went out to send a report......
On October 9, the main flotilla of the Japanese 21st Army set off and arrived at Daya Bay, Guangdong on the evening of the 11th. In the early morning of the 12th, the 18th Division of the Japanese Army landed on the left side of Daya Bay and in the area of Prawn Chung on the front; The Hechuan detachment landed on the back of the salt stove; The 104th Division landed at the glass factory on the right side of Daya Bay; After the 18th Division landed at the head west of Sao Chung, it continued to attack Tamsui. The Chinese defenders resisted and abandoned the city that night and retreated.
After the landing of another part of the Japanese 18th Division, it advanced to Huizhou; From October 12, the 18th Division of the Japanese Army forcibly landed at Xiachong, Yanzao and other places in Daya Bay, Huiyang, and only one battalion of the 151st Division of the Chinese defenders was deployed there, which was bombed by the Japanese and suffered heavy casualties.
