Chapter 647: Smuggling Plan
Telegraph reconnaissance and telecommunications room of the Liaodong Command. From time to time, the ticking of telegrams sounded from several high-powered radio stations.
The person who had been sitting next to the radio quickly wrote the signal on a piece of paper, and then handed it to the person next to him.
"Urgent telegram."
Boom, as soon as he heard that it was an urgent telegram, Zhong Lin, who had been standing at the door like a wooden stick, took it and looked at it twice, turned around and walked out.
After a little trotting, he finally saw that Liu Jun's room light was not related.
"Head, urgent telegram, fifteen minutes, we'll intercept a telegram coming from the direction of Berlin."
Zhong Lin, who entered the room, shook the telegram in his hand and rattled.
Liu Jun, who was about to rest, looked at Zhong Lin's expression, and already guessed the content in his heart: "Germany agreed." ”
"Agreed, and gave Clint full responsibility for this matter, and gave full support to the intelligence organizations in Africa." Zhong Lin nodded and said.
Lao Tzu thought you were a stone in the toilet, smelly and hard, it seems that you are still a hard one, thinking of this, Liu Jun picked up the telegram and read it before handing it to Zhong Lin: "In this operation, your intelligence bureau is the most important, so you go and talk to him." I don't interfere. ”
"Okay." Zhong Lin picked up the pen and wrote down the contents in his folder.
"When will Li and them leave, and is there any news?"
"Leave at nine o'clock tonight."
At nine o'clock, Liu Jun, who heard this, looked at it, and it was now seven o'clock, that is, after waiting for two hours, the troops in Tanegashima would start moving towards the Ryukyu side.
I hope that they will settle the battle in one battle, so that Lao Tzu will be able to link Hawaii, Ryukyu, and Tanegashima in the Pacific Ocean.
Tanegashima is a salty breeze whistling against the white warships moored in the harbor.
On the shore, from time to time, there was a loud sound of people's voices, soldiers of the Japanese reorganization unit wearing yellow uniforms, and soldiers of the Liaodong Army wearing green uniforms and steel helmets, were nervously and orderly, quickly pushing boxes of ammunition and artillery to the shore, and then loading one gun after another onto the ship with the help of their ship lifting.
On the bridge of the Hongzhang ship, looking at the brilliant lights below and the scene of 10,000 people moving, Li He took a deep breath, Li He looked at Yan Fu who was standing next to him and said, "It's half past seven now." There was still more than an hour, and I wondered if the army would be able to deliver all the supplies on time. After speaking, Li He pointed to the materials piled up like a hill in the distance.
This one? Yan Fu shook his head, he really couldn't tell.
"Forget it, go tell William that the time has been revised to ten o'clock, give them more time." Throwing down these words, Li He turned around and returned to the command tower.
Woo woo woo woo “
Departure, Li He nodded, turned over and opened the map from the side, and began to find the location of the Ryukyus, if it was fast, that is, in the afternoon of the day after tomorrow, the Battle of the Ryukyus could start.
Finally left, threw down the pen in his hand with a snap, Li He opened the door of the cabin, took a few steps to the command tower and sat down, and looked at the adjutant who had not rested: "You go and call the chief of staff, and then go to rest." ”
"Yes." After the adjutant had finished saluting, he turned around and strode out.
The German fleet is gone, then it will be able to carry out the stowaway plan itself.
Now, at the Lushun base, all 26 submarines have been loaded into the transport ships found from the steamship China Merchants Bureau, and are quietly moored at the base, waiting for the order to leave.
"Commander, you're looking for me." Yan Fu estimated that he hadn't slept yet, and in less than three minutes, he walked in from outside and sat down beside Li He.
"The German fleet has left Tanegashima and informed Cai Tinggan that it is okay to leave,"
Yan Fu nodded, he knew that the purpose of letting the German fleet leave was to let the submarine force enter the northwest of Tanegashima to lurk, and then wait for the German fleet to return, and immediately launch an attack on the Japanese combined fleet staying in the Sasebo naval base.
"Understood, I'll generate electricity immediately."
Lushun, the sky at the headquarters is approaching dawn. Because it was Saturday, Liu Jun called the alarm clock off when he went to bed last night. I want to get a good night's sleep.
The fierce knock on the door woke up the sleeping Liu Jun. This voice, this kind of momentum, is even more powerful than an alarm clock, and he doesn't have to think about it to know that there is no second one who dares to bang on the door here except Zhong Lin.
This damn, scolded Liu Jun got dressed, opened the door, and he saw Zhong Lin running over just wearing civilian clothes.
"Something, let you put on slippers and come." After looking at Zhong Lin, Liu Jun asked suspiciously.
"Head, Li He has sent a telegram requesting the implementation of the smuggling plan."
The smuggling plan was drawn up by Liu Jun, probably that after the departure of the German fleet, the submarine force and the 25th Army accompanying it to Tanegashima immediately went to Tanegashima under the cover of three armored cruisers. Prepare to participate in the assault on Sasebo.
After leaving, Liu Jun took the telegram and looked at it, and it was written that the German fleet had indeed left Tanegashima at ten o'clock last night.
"Go and give Cai Tinggan an order and set off immediately. Go to Tanegashima and tell him that this is the first actual combat of the submarine, and give Lao Tzu some prestige, otherwise I will remove him. ”
"Okay." Zhong Lin nodded, turned around and walked out.
Lushun Military Port, except for the sea water lapping on the beach, is quiet everywhere.
Woo woo woo oon lushun base, a piercing emergency assembly sound, began to sound over lushun.
In less than three minutes, the ships and transport ships of the Beiyang Naval Division, which had been in the state of turning off their lights, turned on their lights, and the lighthouse high above also began to illuminate the water surface of the sea channel.
"Urgent fire, emergency fire." The signal flew, and the rest shot from the flagship, began to flutter on the mast, and after ten minutes the chimneys of the ships were already billowing smoke.
The Yin Sen, which served as the escort flagship, was the first to leave the port and began to head out to the open sea, followed by two armored cruisers and more than 20 transport ships, which also began to slowly leave the port and head out to the open sea. Prepare to reorganize, and then go straight to Tanegashima.
