Chapter 212: Tiger's Mouth

Shanghai Airport.

It was not yet dawn, but the whole airport was already noisy, and the sleeping little devils were awakened by the sound of sirens, and the sleepy-eyed little devils didn't know what was going on.

Several little devil officers, carrying command knives, began to anxiously instruct the little devils to do this and that, preparing for the plane to take off.

Time passed minute by minute, the sky showed a trace of bright color, and after six o'clock, the sky finally revealed a trace of hazy light, but there was still some time before dawn.

A devil Dazuo, looked at his watch, and then looked at the sky in the distance, he couldn't help but feel anxious, so anxious, for the first time, he felt that time was so slow.

"Boom!"

There was a thunderclap in the sky, and the sky, which had been fine an hour or two ago, had changed dramatically, and there was thunder and wind. In the past, although there were a lot of clouds in the sky, you could still see some starlight, but now it is already cloudy.

"Your Excellency Dazuo, the weather has changed, the sky is full of dark clouds, even if it is bright, it is not suitable for takeoff, what should I do?" A devil Shaozuo reported, full of worry.

The devil Osa had a solemn face, such bad weather, it was really not the time to take off, however, Matsui Shigen gave a death order, and it was thunder and rain in time, and he also ordered the plane to take off forcibly.

At this time, there were far from all-weather fighters, and the planes of small Japan were the same, when it was thundering and raining, they really could not take off, otherwise, it would be very dangerous. It could be a crash and a death.

The devil Dazuo thought for a while, and said in a deep voice: "The order remains the same, and the sky is bright." Forced take-off. ”

It was finally seven o'clock, and although it was seven o'clock in the morning, the whole light was still relatively dim due to the dark clouds in the sky, and heavy rain could come at any time.

When the time comes, one after another little devil planes. Forced take-off began, and at least a dozen planes took off, after leaving the runway. The planes quickly disappeared into the dark clouds.

"Boom!"

A dazzling lightning bolt in the sky illuminated the originally dim airport, and seeing such a strong lightning, the devil Dazuo felt bad.

Really. Two planes that had just rushed into the dark clouds were struck by lightning. The pilots who flew these two planes only felt that their planes were emitting bursts of sparks, and soon, there were puffs of smoke, and all the instruments and meters of the planes were scorched.

The two planes quickly fell headlong and exploded not far from the airport, and two flames rose, which really destroyed the plane and killed people.

Seeing this scene, the devil Dazuo's face was pale, and he was so angry that he almost vomited blood. It's not good to be a teacher.

……

The Noshiro Maru was driving at full speed on the surface of the East China Sea, and the sky around it was like ink. A rainstorm will come soon, Ye Feng has been in the command room of this auxiliary cruiser, seeing that the sky outside has changed greatly, and it will be a thunderstorm soon, Ye Feng is relieved.

Although he has successfully sailed into the East China Sea, Ye Feng has always been worried that he will be followed and detected by Japanese planes after dawn, and once the little Japanese planes find out their whereabouts, then the matter will be more troublesome, and the little devils may send warships to pursue him, or send planes to deal with him.

However, now it's okay, it's really beautiful, there are such thick dark clouds, and there is lightning in between, it should be difficult for the little devil to find out.

"Junza, we'll drive into Hangzhou Bay in about an hour."

Hearing Zhao Long's report, Ye Feng shouted loudly: "Map." ”

A special combat team member spread out the map in front of Ye Feng, who looked at the detailed map of Hangzhou Bay and then determined the docking location of the "Nodai Maru".

Hangzhou did not have a seaport capable of supplying and discharging more than 7,000 tons of the "Noshiro Maru", so Ye Feng chose a place close to Hangzhou, and it was not far from the highway.

After choosing a good place, Ye Feng conveyed the order: "Inform our transport troops, stay by this place, and as soon as the ship docks, unload the things and transport them away." ”

"Yes!"

A special combat member immediately began to send a report to the headquarters of the newly formed 6th Army, conveying Ye Feng's order.

The sky finally dawned, and the "Noshiro Maru" was still driving at full speed, and soon drove into Hangzhou Bay, heading towards the predetermined location.

……

After a dozen or so Japanese planes forcibly took off, two of them crashed as soon as they took off, and the remaining dozen or so planes were scattered and separated to reconnoiter at low altitudes outside the mouth of the Yangtze River, within a radius of 200 miles.

Heavy rain began to fall, there were large dark clouds in the sky, and there were lightning, and the planes of the little Japanese could only reconnoiter at low altitudes, and they could only reconnoiter below the clouds, and as soon as the altitude was reduced, the field of vision was much smaller, and the heavy rain was hazy, and it had been two or three hours, and the little devils had not found the slightest trace of the "Noyo Maru".

Within two or three hours, three more planes of the little Japanese plane crashed, and the remaining planes appeared cautious, did not dare to fly too fast, and under normal circumstances, did not dare to burrow into the clouds.

"Yaga!"

A little devil pilot saw that the fuel gauge on his plane was almost bottoming out, and he couldn't help but shout angrily, the plane was about to run out of fuel and was about to return home, but after such a long time of reconnaissance, nothing was found.

There was more than one plane returning home, and this batch of more than a dozen planes, except for a few that crashed, almost all of the rest ran out of fuel and began to return one after another.

……

Nanjing, the headquarters of the Central China Front of the Japanese Army.

Matsui Ishine has been waiting for news from Shanghai, breakfast in the morning is tasteless, and now the time is almost ten o'clock, and it is also raining lightly outside, and the sky is gloomy.

Matsui Ishone's face was almost the same as the sky outside, very gloomy, the weather was so bad, there had been no news from Shanghai, Matsui Ishone knew that as time went by, the hope of regaining the "Nodai Maru" became more and more slim.

"Your Excellency Commander-in-Chief, a small fleet of the Navy is approaching the mouth of the Yangtze River, and as soon as there is news of the Noshiro Maru, it will be able to pursue and intercept it. ”

The little devil chief of staff came in. Finally brought a slightly better news, though, to hear the news. Matsui Ishone's face did not soften in any way, because until now, there was still no trace of the "Nodai Maru".

"Send another report to the Shanghai airport to ask for the latest news."

The chief of staff of the little devil turned around to convey the order, and about ten minutes later, the chief of staff of the little devil came again, bowed his head and reported: "Shanghai Airport replied." No trace of the Noshiro Maru was found, and five of the dozen or so planes sent out to reconnoiter had already crashed. The rest of the planes ran out of fuel and had all returned home. ”

Hearing this, Matsui Ishine didn't say a word, and his face was gloomy. After a long time, he said: "Don't send planes to take off forcibly." It's been so long that it's impossible to find any trace of the Nodaimaru. ”

After saying that, Matsui Ishone collapsed weakly on the chair.

****

At noon, the heavy rain began to gradually stop, and the "Noshiro Maru" had already docked, not far from the mouth of the Qiantang River.

There was no large pier here, and the Noshiro Maru kept rushing towards the shore until it ran aground in shallow water before stopping. There are still twenty or thirty meters to go from the shore.

On the shore, a large number of soldiers were led by Liu Yongyan and Guo Weiquan. Already waiting on the shore, not far from the shore, there is a road, and there are quite a few big trucks parked on the road.

Seeing the "Nodai Maru", Liu Yongyan and Guo Weiquan both smiled, and thought in their hearts, the military seat is really amazing, and it is simply a tiger's mouth to take away this auxiliary cruiser from the hands of the little devil.

"Everyone's attention, get ready to start."

Liu Yongyan shouted, and the soldiers began to act, the small boats that had been prepared for a long time, full of soldiers rowed towards the "Noshiro Maru", close to the auxiliary cruiser, and the soldiers climbed up the soft ladder to the "Noshiro Maru" and began to unload things down.

It didn't take long for boxes of goods to be unloaded from the Noshiro Maru and loaded onto large trucks parked on the highway not far away, which would be loaded with these things all the way back to the No. 1 warehouse on Kuroyama.

Ye Feng also got off the boat, watching the soldiers start to work in an orderly manner, Ye Feng nodded with satisfaction, this trip to Shanghai, full of loads, although there is no specific inventory of these things, but, there must be a lot of them, for a long time, their own army construction, industrial construction and so on are no longer short of funds.

*****

Tokyo, Japan.

Hatohiko, who returned to the Japanese mainland for a few months, had a ruddy face and a very good mood, not only eating well and sleeping soundly, but also a large group of people to serve and enjoy the treatment of a prince.

Now, the time has come to November, and Asaka Palace Hatohiko is already thinking about returning to China, in this short period of time, Asaka Palace Hatohiko and Ye Feng still have secret contact, but not many times, and in addition to the matter of the battlefield in Central China, Asaka Palace Hatohiko also knows it clearly.

During this period of time, Matsui Shigen was in a hurry, only achieved a small victory in the Wuhan battlefield, spent a lot of time and troops, and the performance was not outstanding, in addition, the fiasco in the Hangzhou battlefield was a major failure, and the high-level of the base camp once considered changing generals.

Hatohiko took the opportunity to have a high-level activity in Japan, and even met with the little Japanese emperor several times, and the time was ripe for Hatohiko to return to China.

The purpose of Asaka Palace Hatohiko is to be the best commander-in-chief of the Central China Front, and this matter also has a certain eyebrow, however, a few days later, there was still a little change, and Asaka Palace Hatohiko did not serve as the commander-in-chief of the Central China Front, but served as a senior adviser to the base camp, went to Nanjing on behalf of the royal family, and hung up an idle position as an adviser.

However, even if it is an adviser, he is afraid that the power is not small, after all, the rank of general is there, and he is still the uncle of the emperor of Japan, even the newly appointed Okamura Ninji will be afraid of Hatohiko Asakamiya.

At the end of November, Matsui Shifeng was dismissed, and this dismissal was related to the huge amount of treasures that Ye Feng had taken away some time ago, and it was Okamura Ninji who became the commander-in-chief of the Central China Front.
