Chapter 193: Tracking
Nanjing responded positively to Wei Qidong and directly asked Nantong to send nearly 10,000 people under Wei Qidong's command. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Wei Qidong was not polite, and directly ordered everyone to search a signal source area that he had assigned. Because this area itself is a sparsely populated location, outsiders generally rarely go there, and foreigners go even less.
Therefore, Wei Qidong ordered that all Orientals who could not speak Chinese well must be investigated, and if it is confirmed that they are Japanese, they will all be arrested. Especially in some hidden mountainous areas and inaccessible places, it is necessary to search in all directions.
Suddenly, a large number of regular troops appeared in this area, and naturally they couldn't hide from Matsui Ishine and his party.
"Baga, what's going on? Could it be that the traces are exposed? Tsukada's face was very ugly.
Muto Akira frowned, and only sighed after a long time, "It may be that the telegram we sent exposed our general area, so the Chinese army searched for it on a large scale." ā
The crowd thought it should be so.
"It's really hateful, our radio station was turned on for a while, and we sent a telegram, how did it come to light? Could it be that the Chinese sent a telegram in a certain direction, and they had to send people to search for it? Yanagawa Heisuke was also puzzled.
"In that case, it is likely that the telegram we sent was intercepted and deciphered." Matsui Ishine's face changed slightly.
When Matsui Ishone said this, the more everyone thought about it, the more they felt that it was possible.
"This, this, the Chinese's intelligence decipherment ability is so powerful?" Tsukada attack is somewhat incredible.
"It's useless to say this now, the most important thing is how we can avoid the Chinese search and then find a way to board the ship that picks us up." If something goes wrong in the middle, we, the people, will be served in one pot. "Tsukada now thinks that Muto Zhang's retreat plan is really bad, if he had taken the sea route directly from Shanghai, although he would have paid some price, no matter how they were, they would not have been killed.
Since they calculated that the receiving boat would arrive tomorrow during the day, the result of Matsui Ishine's discussion was that they pretended to be Chinese fishermen during the day, and then swaggered out to sea to board the receiving boat and retreated.
But now, with the Chinese army searching aggressively, Matsui Ishine has denied the plan of action to retreat during the day, because it is too dangerous, and the night operation should be able to circumvent the search of the Chinese army as much as possible.
The crowd also felt that the original plan should be rejected and the action should be carried out at night. However, the receiving fleet was not yet aware of this, so it was necessary to send a telegram informing them of the change in plans.
"We should be under surveillance here, we can't turn on the radio here anymore." Akira Muto said.
"The two of them took the radio to change to another direction, so that they could also attract the attention of the Chinese army by the way. If the Chinese military is drawn away by the radio, it is even more indicative that we are being monitored......" Yanagawa Heisuke said.
Everyone thought so, and then sent two spies to carefully hold the radio to act, and Matsui Ishine and others prevented the two spies from being arrested and exposed their positions, so they also shifted their positions as soon as possible, leaving only the two of them secretly watching here.
It can be said that Wei Qidong's actions have made Matsui Shigen and them become frightened birds. There was no way to do this, they were old, weak, sick and disabled, not even ordinary soldiers, and in order to act secretly, they only carried a few pistols and short knives.
Naturally, the purpose of these weapons is not to fight, but to prevent suicide once their actions are exposed. After all, if they really run into the Chinese army in the hinterland of China, they will have no power to fight back.
"Brother Dong, I intercepted the information again, and it was sent from Nantong, but the location has changed." After Matsui Shigen and the others sent someone to change their position and send a telegram, they were also intercepted by Tang Xinyi, who was closely concerned for the first time, and she naturally told Wei Qidong as soon as possible.
"Hmph, if they want to escape, there is only one way by sea, where can they run? It's just smoke bombs, leave them alone, which makes it even more obvious that there is something wrong with this little devil. Wei Qidong thought for a while, and then replied to Tang Xinyi.
"Makes sense." Tang Xinyi nodded, so she was no longer disturbed by the enemy.
The two Japanese spies who had sent the telegram withdrew unharmed, and joined up with Matsui Ishone, and they quickly changed positions, but neither of them was very far from the coastline.
At this time, Wei Qidong had been driving the Apache to search the sea, and after running out of fuel, he returned to the shore and landed to fill up, and then acted quickly. The reason why they searched at sea was because Wei Qidong wanted to find out the Japanese ships that responded, and if the Japanese ships did not want to make more detours, they would definitely go straight to the coastline of Nantong.
Moreover, in order to hide people's eyes, the Japanese will definitely find some remote locations to dock, so that Wei Qidong will have a general search area, and keep locking the ships entering the Nantong coast from other directions one by one.
What's more, after the last time the Japanese who were hiding in Nantong communicated with the receiving ship by radio, there was a brief signal transmission, which was captured by Tang Xinyi and Wei Qidong. Although the communication was very short, Wei Qidong had already confirmed the fact of the Japanese retreat and the location of the receiving ship, and with this position, Wei Qidong was relieved of a lot of trouble.
"Brother Dong, don't be too anxious, pay more attention to your own safety......" Tang Xinyi knew that Wei Qidong had been increasing her search, and couldn't help but worry and admonish, because flying at sea is not as good as land, there are many complex factors, and fatigue driving is even worse.
"Don't worry, I'm fine, I'll take a break every once in a while." Wei Qidong was relieved, and what he said about taking a break every once in a while meant taking advantage of each refueling time to rest for about ten minutes, and then continuing to act.
It can be said that Wei Qidong is indeed a little tired at this moment, but there is no way, he has spent so much energy and does not want to fall short at the last moment. The more complicated the operation, the more he felt that it was very difficult, and perhaps he would be able to find out again if he relaxed for a moment and the enemy left his sight.
......Suddenly, the radio signal detector sounded briefly, Wei Qidong was overjoyed, immediately probed the location of the signal source, and then drove the Apache over.
The signal disappeared suddenly, but Wei Qidong was not discouraged, and flew over quickly according to the direction he had just detected.
The night added a lot of difficulty to Wei Qidong's search, but it also provided some cover for his actions, and the sound of the waves and the howling of the sea wind perfectly muffled the sound of Apache.
Suddenly, Wei Qidong's gaze froze, and he saw an ordinary merchant ship, without any markings on it, just like an ordinary ship. However, the direction of this ship is to the coastline of Nantong, and there is a sea area around it, and Wei Qidong only sees such a ship.
The whereabouts were suspicious, and Wei Qidong immediately followed them.
