Chapter 46: Stalemate (2)
"You're the ship's owner?" A director of the shipping bureau surnamed Wang walked out, looked at Xiao Linghu and Yan Fei, and asked Xiao Linghu.
"I'm the shipowner!" Lin Jinghan followed from behind and stood in front of the director.
The director looked at Lin Jinghan and recognized it, with an unnatural laugh on his face, and said, "It turns out that Boss Lin is back!" I thought you were out of the house! ”
Lin shudde: "I didn't go far away, didn't you see me holding a gun in my hand?" These days, I'm fighting devils every day, contributing to the country, and contributing to **! As he spoke, he deliberately fiddled with the flower machine gun in his hand, clearly for them.
Director Wang was stunned, saw the gun in his hand, and of course saw the military uniform he was wearing, and he still had the rank of second lieutenant, and said with a smile: "It turns out that Boss Lin also joined the army!" Hehe, in this way, Boss Lin's consciousness must be higher than that of ordinary people, the gun in our hands is used to fight devils, and it should not be used to scare your own people, don't you say? ”
Lin Jinghan didn't raise his head, and said lightly: "It also depends on whether he is his own person!" ”
Director Wang became more and more embarrassed, turned his head and beckoned a person who was also wearing a ** military uniform behind him to come over, and shouted, "Major Li, come and talk to Boss Lin!" ”
At the same time, he also introduced to Lin Jinghan, Yan Fei, and Xiao Linghu: "This Major Li is the operational director of our Shanghai Defense Region Command, urging our Shipping Bureau to go to Dongjiadu to sink the ship!" ”
Major Li was an officer in his thirties, and he deliberately looked at Xiao Linghu, because he and Lin Jinghan were the only ones wearing military uniforms, and Xiao Linghu's epaulettes looked like he was only a captain, one level shorter than him, and there was contempt in his heart.
"This is the order from above!" Major Li spoke, looking condescending, as if Xiao Linghu and Lin Jinghan were both soldiers under him and had to obey his leadership.
Major Li's words made Xiao Linghu a little disliking to listen, and without waiting for Lin Jinghan to answer, he immediately said, "Above? Do you know who my superiors are? ”
"Who is it?" Major Lee asked.
"My superior is General Chen Cheng, the commander of the former enemy headquarters!" Xiao Linghu said seriously.
Major Li was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help but tease: "Hehe, if your superior is Commander Chen, then my superior is still the chairman!" ”
Xiao Linghu didn't answer, and took out a letter of appointment from the pocket of his underwear, which was still a letter of appointment written by Commander Chen personally for him when the former enemy headquarters set up a special service company, which was not only stamped with the big seal of the Third War Zone, but also Commander Chen's autograph. This letter of appointment was folded casually by Xiao Linghu and put in the upper pocket of his shirt, he hadn't taken a shower or changed his clothes once in the past few days, so he naturally took it with him.
Taking the letter of appointment from Xiao Linghu's hand, Major Li looked at it, with a look of surprise on his face, he handed the letter of appointment back to Xiao Linghu, and his words were already much more polite.
"It turns out that you really have to be from the former enemy headquarters! Hehe, this is a big flood that washed the Dragon King Temple, and the family doesn't know the family anymore! He was polite to Xiao Linghu.
After all, the Shanghai Defense Region is a subordinate unit of the Third Theater, and it was originally the Shanghai Operational Command Headquarters established at the beginning, but when the Third Theater was established, it naturally became the forward department in this theater, and this command only led some Shanghai security regiments, all of which were local units, and they were not at all the same as regular units such as the 88th and 11th Divisions. Their main task is to cooperate with the command of the former enemy, to carry out logistical supplies to the leading troops fighting in the vicinity of Shanghai, to transport the wounded and ammunition, and to coordinate the movements between various military divisions.
Shipwrecks blocking the passage are naturally also a job they are responsible for.
"Well said! Say! Xiao Linghu also became polite and said to him: "Chief Li doesn't know, before my brother became a soldier, he was mixed up in Shanghai, and the three boats here are all the net worth of him and the other two brothers, one of whom died when he attacked Huishan Wharf some time ago. They are also ready to rely on running and transportation to support their families after the battle! You guys actually recruited all three of their boats away, and everyone will stop fighting in the future, what will you live on? ”
Major Li looked embarrassed, thought for a while, and said, "Big brother, I also have no way to go to the river, there are so many boats on this Huangpu River, but there are really few that really belong to us Chinese." You see, there are still a few large tonnage docked here, but they are American ships, and over there, they are also foreigners! Only your three boats belong to us Chinese! ”
"Yes! Yes! Director Wang of the Shipping Bureau also hurriedly said: "Among the several ships listed by our Shipping Bureau, Boss Lin's is quite generous, and other people's boats are too small, at most they can only be regarded as sampans, even if they sink, they are not even satisfied with the gap between their teeth!" ”
Xiao Linghu said: "Could it be that these three boats are needed to block that channel?" ”
Major Li said: "In the past two days, we have been looking for ships to sink there, and more than ten ships have sunk, but there is still a hole tens of meters wide. Originally, we didn't want to sink your ship, but we came here a few days ago, and we didn't see the owner, so we didn't move, and we really couldn't find any other ship today, so I came here! ”
Lin shuddered for a moment and asked, "So, what about the three ships of the Xianghe Company?" That's all 3,000 tons! It's bigger than these three of ours! ”
Director Wang said: "Those three boats have sunk yesterday!" ”
"And what about the two wheels of Dachang Company?" Yan Fei also asked.
"Those two are the earliest, the boss is very generous, and they have sunk a long time ago!" Director Wang said.
"What about Yunsheng?"
"Sunk!"
"What about Taishun Company?"
"It's sinking too!"
"Jardine has a lot of ships, but what about their ships?" Yan Fei suddenly remembered and asked.
Director Wang said: "Jardine Matheson is British, and their ships are either registered in the UK or Hong Kong, how can we move?" ”
Xiao Linghu was silent, and Yan Fei couldn't help but say with emotion: "If we knew that this was the case, then we really might as well register the company with the British!" ”
Director Wang and Major Li looked at each other, this was indeed the helplessness of a Chinese businessman.
After a stalemate, Major Li still sighed and said to Director Wang: "Let's walk along the pier again and see if we can find other boats, right?" If it really doesn't work, the boat will be a small boat, just sink a few more! ”
Obviously, he was looking at Xiao Linghu's identity and was ready to be accommodating.
Lin Jinghan pondered for a moment and raised his head: "Forget it, the country is already like this, even if we can earn more money, what's the use?" Let's go! Let's all drive away from these three boats! ”
As he spoke, he let out a long sigh, but as if he couldn't bear to look at each other, he slowly closed his eyes.
