At nine o'clock in the evening, Yan Fei rocked the canopy boat and cautiously approached the North Pier of China Merchants, which was different from the other wharves on the side, it was not a straight line, but along the river bank, five rectangular berths were recessed into the land, and above those berths, there were also large lifting equipment.

This wharf is also a subordinate of the China Merchants Bureau in Shanghai, perhaps because of its wealth, it is the largest wharf in the vicinity.

Perhaps, it was precisely because this wharf was more promising than the Japanese-controlled Huishan wharf that it naturally attracted the covetousness of the Japanese, who took advantage of the re-outbreak of the Sino-Japanese war to send troops to occupy this place and advance the defense line to the Honghe River to the west.

The North Pier was too large and there were many ships docking, so although the Japanese had parked all the boats on the pier into five oversized berths, they had to let the two large ships stop outside the pier because the berths were full.

There was silence all around, and the two freighters seemed to be two giants, quietly guarding both sides of the dock.

Yan Fei skillfully rocked the oar and approached one of the freighters called Xinghe, buried the whole ship in the shadow of this huge freighter, and then slowly sailed along the hull towards the bow of the ship, not daring to make too much noise.

Gently turning to the bow of the boat, in the gap between the two large boats, he quietly turned the canopy boat and docked.

When the hull of the ship came to a steady place, the bow of the ship had been pasted to the concrete shore of the dock, and Ah Peng was about to jump up to tie the rope of the ship, but was pulled by Xiao Linghu alertly, here he knew that he could not talk casually like in the center of the river, so he kept his voice to the lowest, and said: "Beware of the enemy's secret whistle!" ”

Ah Peng was stunned for a moment, nodded, and was no longer as reckless as just now.

Everyone listened calmly for a long time, and did not find anything abnormal, Ah Peng was about to go ashore again, but he was still stopped by Xiao Linghu.

"There should be no problem!" Ah Peng is definitely authentic.

Xiao Linghu shook his head and warned again: "If it's not quiet, there's no problem, don't you think it's too quiet here?" ”

As soon as these words came out, everyone felt that this was indeed the case, Lin Jinghan thought for a while, nodded his head, as if he had thought of something, and said softly: "Yes, this is too quiet, not even a cricket screams!" ”

It's still August on the solar calendar, and it's the end of summer, and the summer insects are just in time to be infested at night, and if there is no outside disturbance, those insects will definitely hold a lively concert.

And here, not to mention the insect concert, there is not a single singer.

Ah Peng realized something abnormal, and was about to take a second look, but he heard the sound of leather shoes walking on the cement floor in the distance, and everyone immediately became nervous, even Xiao Linghu held the gun in his hand tightly.

The sound of the leather shoes got closer and closer, and when I listened closely, it was clear that two people were coming side by side, they walked past the edge of the dock, and also passed by the bow of the canopy boat, but no one cared about what else would be hidden in the gap between the two broken boats.

The sound of the two footsteps stopped not far from the west, and then there was the sound of the Japanese chattering, Xiao Linghu listened carefully, he couldn't understand what these devils were saying at all, but he could hear that in addition to the two people who had just come over, there were two other people who spoke.

It only illustrates the fact that, at least near where they are now, there must be a hidden stake or a secret sentry.

The two Japanese who came over were obviously officers, or they were in charge of supervising them, because those two people kept asking, and the people from the secret sentry kept answering, and he often heard "Hi! Hi! Response.

After a long time, the two Japanese officers left, their leather shoes on the concrete floor, making a "click!" Click! The sound gradually disappeared into the night in the west.

Several people sat back in the cabin of the canopy boat, and in order to prevent the boat from being washed away by the river, Yan Fei had to maintain a certain rocking posture so that the boat could always touch the dock.

"At least there's a dark stake around here!" Xiao Linghu judged.

"I don't have to say it, I have to kill it!" Lin Jinghan also said softly.

Huang Mao said: "But we don't even know where they are, how many people don't know!" ”

"That's not a problem!" Lin shuddered: "We can find them out!" ”

"Oh?" Meng Fanwei said: "This is not easy! Now that we're on the boat, we can't even get on the shore, how can you check? ”

"That's not a problem!" Lin was chilled and serious.

Xiao Linghu also wanted to see how capable Lin Jinghan was, so he asked, "You say, right?" How to get it? ”

Lin shudde: "The enemy's hidden stake must be not far to the west, and their target must be staring at the shore of the pier, hehe, if my guess is correct, maybe their hiding place is our ship to the west!" ”

Listening to Lin Jinghan's analysis, everyone's eyes couldn't help but light up.

Ah Peng hurriedly said: "Yes, it must be on this boat next to us, do you think, where can I hide on the dock?" ”

Lin Jinghan glanced at him, but reminded: "There is also a hiding place on the dock, don't you know that there is a foreman's room, a shift room, and a guardhouse on it?" ”

Ah Peng was snatched by Lin in a chill, and he couldn't say a word when he asked.

Xiao Linghu said: "There are only a few obvious buildings on the dock, I think since they are secret outposts set up by the enemy, of course they will not be placed in that kind of place, those places are also visible to others at a glance!" ”

"Yes!" Lin Jinghan couldn't help but admire Xiao Linghu more and more, Xiao Linghu's analytical ability was not worse than him at all, but more logical than him. He thought for a moment, and then said: "However, these devils are also really, this place is close to the river, is it necessary to set up a secret post in such a place?" ”

"Absolutely!" Xiao Linghu said: "This wharf is very big, and it is impossible for the devils to really build so many bunkers and hidden forts along the wharf on the bank of the Huangpu River, so the places where they built the fort are all important places they think, such as the bridgehead of the Honghe River, such as Huishan Wharf and Yangshupu Wharf." Like the North Stack Wharf, this place is also large, and it needs to be built to set up a bunker, and after it is repaired, it is necessary to garrison troops, and the effect that can be seen is only to prevent threats from the Huangpu River. ”

Everyone nodded their heads together.

Xiao Linghu continued: "During the day, they can see, and there are warships cruising on the Huangpu River, so they don't have to worry about the threat from the river; It's only at night that they're worried, afraid that our army will sneak up on them. So that's all they're dealing with now. For this reason alone, a secret post is sufficient, and these secret posts can also serve the purpose of a surprise attack, so that the stowaways are unable to guard against it! ”

"That's it! All right! Meng Fanwei was a little impatient and asked Lin Jinghan: "What method do you say can be used to kill the enemy's secret outpost?" ”

Lin shuddered: "I didn't say kill them, I just said that I wanted to check them." ”

"It's all the same, if you verify them, you will naturally kill them!" Meng Fanwei said.

"Nothing to say!" Lin Jinghan stood up slightly, and said categorically: "Climb on the boat, you can always see the situation clearly!" ”

Meng Fanwei couldn't help but be stunned, and suddenly felt that he was really redundant to ask, this is the easiest way, but he is still chasing after it.

Xiao Linghu didn't ask, obviously he already knew this method.
