The general remembered something, and immediately took out an American cigarette from the cabinet and gave it to Zhou Lin: "I know you like to smoke American cigarettes." ”

Zhou Lin immediately opened it, took out a pack of cigarettes, took out one and lit it, and took a puff of beauty: "Authentic American tobacco taste." ”

"The situation you said is very important, and I will report it to the director immediately."

The general immediately left his office and went to the adjacent telegraph room.

The general's telegram caused repercussions in the top of the United States.

Before you know it, the appetite of the Japanese has grown.

The Japanese have already set their sights on the South Seas, so war is inevitable.

Perhaps, at this time, the layout of the military forces of the countries of the South Seas has been put on the map of the Japanese base camp.

Moreover, a piece of news from Zhou Lin scared them.

All the countries in the South Seas were actively in contact with the Japanese army, and they welcomed the Japanese army into the South Seas.

Because it has always been the life of the colony, the Nanyang people hate the current occupation army to death, and as long as the war starts, the Nanyang people will definitely support the Japanese who "rescued the Nanyang people from the sea of suffering".

As a result, the U.S. military, which is inferior in terms of time, location, and people, will definitely be united by the Japanese and the Nanyangs, and they will not be eaten to the bone.

The Supreme Commander of the U.S. Army, who received the information, ordered all units to make plans on how to respond to changes in the war situation in Southeast Asia.

The general left, and he went back to the United States to report.

Zhou Lin and Smith were invited into the office of the chief of the quartermaster's office.

This time, Xiangjun also entered the office, and it was Smith who invited her in.

Zhou Lin went straight to the point: "Colonel, are you satisfied with my purchase conditions?" ”

The director smiled and said, "Satisfied! It's just that the price is too low. You can have rich lords. ”

Zhou Lin looked at Smith: "You said to the colonel that I am a rich man?" ”

Smith hurriedly shook his head: "I didn't eat in the morning!" So I didn't eat too much and talk nonsense. ”

The colonel smiled: "Mr. Zhou gambled on the king's art, and he came back with eight thousand dollars." ”

Zhou Lin smiled bitterly: "Since you know that I will gamble, you should know that I was declared persona non grata by the casino and escorted out of the country." I have a bad reputation now, and as soon as I enter the casino, I will be kicked out of the casino. I can't make money if I want to. ”

The colonel smiled and nodded, Zhou Lin's story had been written in the United States.

Several people were sincere, and soon signed a contract, Zhou Lin paid a deposit of 10,000 yuan first, and tomorrow, Zhou Lin sent someone to pay the full purchase price and pick up the goods back to Zhoujiadao.

After eating lunch, Zhou Lin and Xiangjun returned to Zhoujia Island by helicopter.

In the evening, Old Fourteen came.

"Young master, the Malays are going to do it." Old Fourteen said.

"What's the trick?" Zhou Lin threw a pack of American cigarettes to Lao Fourteen.

"They're setting up an ambush tomorrow in Tiger Leaping Gorge to intercept our gun-carrying boats."

"Ahh How do they know I'm coming back tomorrow with a gun? Zhou Lin asked.

"There are connections with them in the US military base, and you can get the news as long as you spend money."

"You go and invite Master Fang and Master Cui over." Zhou Lin said to the old fourteenth.

Old Fourteen hurriedly ran out to make a call, and now the phone on the island has been connected.

Zhou Lin smoked a cigarette, looked at the smoke, and thought about the problem.

It seems that if you don't kill them, they won't give up.

It's like there's always a wolf watching you, ready to pounce on you and bite you at any moment. This feeling is particularly uncomfortable.

Since you want to gain a foothold in Nanyang, you will do a lot to make an example of chickens and monkeys.

While Zhou Lin was pondering, Cui Haitao came.

Cui Haitao just sat down and lit a cigarette, and Fang Long also came.

Zhou Lin told them what Lao Fourteen said, and the two of them came immediately.

"Young master, hit him on a dog day." Cui Haitao said.

Fang Long reminded: "The two Malays who participated in the ambush were two Malays, and they occupied the other two ends of our island. Our island group is a five-petaled flower type. Island B is the heart of the five-petal flower, and the two islands of AC are two petals, and now the two families who are ready to attack us have two petals. If we take these two petals, then only one petal of this five-petal archipelago is an outsider. ”

Zhou Lin's eyes lit up: "After the ambush battle is fought tomorrow, I will immediately rush to the two islands, occupy the islands, drive the Malays out of the islands, and let people negotiate and buy the other petal island." In this way, our archipelago is neat and secure. ”

Fang Long and Cui Haitao said excitedly that they were going to expand their territory again.

In the end, it was decided to send two regiments to Tiger Leaping Gorge tonight, one on each side.

After the exchange of fire between the gun-carrying cargo ships and escort ships and the Malays, the two regiments on this side immediately attacked and surrounded them.

On May 2, 1941, very early, three freighters left Zhoujiadao.

These vessels are small and medium-sized vessels that can only travel between the Malay Archipelago. It was bought by Zhou Lin after he came. Zhou Lin bought three large freighters, five medium freighters, and eight small freighters in one go, all of which were necessary. Because in the South Seas, ships are the means of transport.

After the freighter on Zhoujiadao left Zhoujiadao, a red signal flare was raised on an uninhabited island in the distance.

An hour later, three troop carriers, each with a battalion of troops, had sailed out from each of the two islands.

An hour later, the troop carriers arrived at Tiger Leaping Gorge and came to shore on both sides.

At the urging of the commander, the soldiers began to take advantage of the terrain around them to establish positions.

At two o'clock in the afternoon, a distant sentry signaled.

"The Chinese's ship arrived, immediately entered the position." The commanders on both sides ordered.

The soldiers entered their positions one after another, and their guns were pointed at the river.

Half an hour passed, and the freighter carrying the guns entered the ambush position.

"Call me! Kill them all! The commander ordered.

Immediately, the ambush soldiers on the shore opened fire, and the bullets hit the hull of the ship and catapulted into the water.

And the six troop carriers lined up in two rows, blocking the direction of the freighter's advance.

The Zhoujiadao soldiers on the three gun-carrying boats immediately fired back on the bunkers that had been prepared for a long time, and the fighting on both sides was in full swing.

However, the Malays who were ambushed did not expect that when they were fighting the cargo ships on the river with all their might, behind them, soldiers from two regiments of Zhoujiadao pounced on them.

Under the front and rear fire, the Malays were shot one after another, either dead or wounded.

Only then did they know that the general trend had fallen towards the soldiers of Zhoujiadao.

They wanted to escape, and many of them jumped into the middle of the sea, but this gave the soldiers on Zhoujia Island a chance to practice their guns.

When the rest of the people saw it, they immediately knelt down and raised their hands in surrender, and some of the people who jumped into the sea also raised their hands and came back, and if they didn't come back, they would definitely die.

Half an hour later, the battle ended, and of the two Malay regiments of more than 2,000 people, only 200 were left with full feet and legs, and the rest were all lying on the ground and in the water.

The wounded lying on the shore were still angry, and the wounded lying in the water were taken away by the Dragon King.

The officers of Zhoujiadao ordered the Malays to collect all their guns and ammunition and load them onto the cargo ship carrying the guns, and then let them temporarily treat their wounded.
