Chapter 341: To the South Seas

Zhou Lin already felt Yamada's suspicion of himself, because if you connect many cases in parallel, you will find one main thing, that is, every time, Zhou Lin will be more or less present.

For such a coincidence, as a senior spy leader, Yamada will definitely not regard it as every coincidence, it must be related.

It's just that Yamada hasn't grasped his "handle" yet, so he can lie on the bed at home, otherwise, he will go to sleep on the plank of the cell.

At this time, it is the time when Yamada's eyes are focused on himself, and his every move will be under Yamada's surveillance.

How do you get out of those eyes of surveillance?

Zhou Lin has been thinking of a way to get out of the current predicament.

On February 26, 1941, Zhou Lin received a telegram from Yan'an.

It was Yulan who came to tell me that this was the Yan'an telegram that Zhou Lin's group received after they fell asleep.

Yan'an's telegram meant that Zhou Lin should take this opportunity to go to Nanyang, because Yan'an was desperately short of supplies, and the Japanese puppets and the Kuomintang blockaded Yan'an, resulting in a shortage of everything in Yan'an.

In terms of daily necessities, Yan'an called for a large-scale production campaign, such as land reclamation, farming, pig and sheep raising, all of which can change the demand situation in Yan'an after three months.

But military supplies, that's not something that Yan'an can solve.

After each battle, the ammunition consumption was extremely high, and the guns were damaged, so the military supplies of the Eighth Route Army had been reduced to a dangerous limit.

You can't let the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army fight the enemy with their bare hands.

For this reason, Yan'an decided to let Zhou Lin go to Nanyang, buy a batch of military supplies from Nanyang, and then smuggle them to northern Shaanxi.

For Yan'an's decision, Zhou Lin expressed his obedience, and he was ready to leave for Nanyang on March 15, accompanied by Xiangjun, Yulan, and Li Shibai.

Since the lotus sister-in-law stayed in Mingzhu, Zhou Lin asked Li Ziqiang to stay in Mingzhu as well.

The two of them dived deeply, so there shouldn't be any risk.

There is another reason for keeping them, if there is any wind and grass in Mingzhu, they can notify Zhou Lin in time and take contingency measures in advance.

When Zhou Lin arranged all this, the telegram from Chongqing also arrived.

Dai Li told the old man's words: Go to Nanyang first, there are a group of overseas Chinese to support China's anti-Japanese war materials stranded in Nanyang, I hope Zhou Lin will go to Nanyang, transport that batch of materials back to China, find a way to transport them to Guangxi, and then, Chongqing will find a way to receive the goods from Guangxi.

The South China Sea is very close to Guangxi, but the sea surface between them is already the key defense area of the Japanese Navy, as long as it is a cargo ship from the South Sea, it must be boarded and inspected.

That's why the shipment has been on hold for more than two months.

In order to facilitate contact, Chongqing decided to let Yang Kun go with Zhou Lin.

But the two can't make people feel related on the surface.

Only in an emergency can the two meet.

Because Yang Kun traveled at the same time as a 30-member special team of the military commander, they were under Yang Kun's remote command.

Chongqing gave them the task of protecting the supplies in Nanyang.

Chongqing did not say that it would bring the supplies back, but asked them to protect them. The reason is that Dai Li doesn't know if there are Japanese eyeliner in this group.

As if it was a coincidence, Yan'an and Chongqing both thought of letting Zhou Lin go to Nanyang.

Zhou Lin, who had already received an order from Yan'an and planned to go to Nanyang, happily agreed to the order sent by Chongqing.

And discussed with Yang Kun to take the passenger ferry on March 15 to Nanyang.

The reason why he had to wait for many days was because Zhou Lin wanted to arrange the migration of people from Phoenix Mountain in Hunan, so Zhou Lin telegraphed Cui Haitao and asked him to rent a civilian car locally, march to Changde, and then to Yueyang, where he waited for an American freighter.

At the same time, Zhou Lin telegraphed to Wang Feng that the group of Kuomintang deserters he had gathered would be gathered immediately, and Zhou Lin would send an American freighter to pick them up and take them to Nanyang.

After Zhou Lin sent the two telegrams, he went to the offices of the head of the Mei organ and Ozaki respectively, asked for their help, and discussed with the Japanese generals in Yueyang to let the 12,000 men of Phoenix Mountain embark from Yueyang.

The head of the Ozaki and Mei organs had long been aware of Zhou Lin's transfer of people from China to Nanyang, so they agreed and helped solve it, as soon as the people from Phoenix Mountain arrived in Yueyang, they would immediately get on the ship and not stop in Yueyang, because these people were all carrying weapons.

The Japanese generals in Yueyang also knew what kind of virtue the bandits in Phoenix Mountain were, so they proposed that they should not stay in Yueyang, for fear that they would make trouble in Yueyang.

After receiving Yang Kun's telegram, Dai Li personally arranged for 400 cars to transport people, and these cars were 200 kilometers in front of Changde and only 100 kilometers away from Yueyang, and they would stop moving forward for fear of the suspicion of the Japanese.

At that time, there will be a hundred civilian cars rented by Lao 14, and they will be transported in batches to Yueyang Port to board the ship, and from there they will leave Hunan.

On March 10, the first group of more than 12,000 people from Phoenix Mountain arrived in a small town 100 kilometers from Yueyang, and then they took a rented car to Yueyang City.

The Japanese troops on the city wall watched a hundred civilian cars drag back and forth five times before transporting more than 12,000 bandits outside the city.

Seeing so many gun-wielding people gathered outside the city, as if they were about to attack the city, the Japanese troops in the city were also vigilant.

In order to prevent these bandits from staying in Yueyang City, the Japanese general ordered to transfer more than 100 military vehicles to be accompanied by the Japanese army and send the bandits onto the ship in batches.

As a result, 100 vehicles transporting bandits and more than 20 Japanese escort vehicles with machine guns drove all the way from Yueyang City to the wharf.

On the river of the wharf, there are three American cargo ships, parked on the river.

As soon as the people from Phoenix Mountain got off the bus, they were asked by the Japanese army to board the ship quickly.

There are "Eyes of the Night" people on board, and they know each other.

In this way, Yueyang City was lively for several hours, as all the people of Phoenix Mountain got on the American freighter without losing any loss, with the departure of the American freighter, with the withdrawal of more than 5,000 Japanese troops on alert, Yueyang City quieted down.

The American freighter was modified and made into bunk beds, so that the cargo hold was loaded with more than 4,000 people at once.

Three freighters carried more than 12,000 people and were not crowded.

In order to strengthen management, Cui Haitao also had a commander on each boat to direct the movements of more than 4,000 people on board.

All the weapons brought were put on board to establish defensive positions.

Heavy machine guns and light machine guns have sandbag bunkers, which is scary enough.

The American freighter left Yueyang and headed down the river, stopping for three hours on the river as it was about to reach Wuhan. They were waiting for Fang Long and his party who came down from Chongqing.

Finally, the two American freighters carrying more than 6,000 people on board joined the three American freighters that were waiting in the middle of the river.

As a result, five heavily loaded American freighters, under the high alert of the Japanese troops along the way, sailed for three days and arrived at the pearl.
