Chapter 926: Intelligence Leakage
Luke had already arrived in the Far East three months earlier, before the British had fully approved of the plan, and everything was under the control of the Viceroy of India and the Governor of Hong Kong. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 At that time, the Governor of India and the Governor of Hong Kong, Nathan, had already taken the lead with the Governor of Huguang in the discussion, but they did not explain that they wanted to make Huguang geographical, but to help the imperial court build up an army.
On the eastern outskirts of East Lake, there are several newly built wooden houses, which are claimed to be city defense barracks, but in fact are where the British advisers rested and stayed.
Knock knock knock........ Knock knock knock......... There was a knock on the door outside Luke's room. After hearing the knock on the door, Luke, dressed in a retired army uniform and a light yellow military cap, turned around and stood up and opened the door.
Luke is only less than thirty-five years old this year, and he is considered one of the top mid-level officers in the Viceroy of India, Kolan, and this time Kolan asked him to serve as the head of the advisory group, which can be seen. Curan still has a lot of trust in Luke.
When he opened the room, Luke, who was tall and thin, saw that the person standing in front of him was actually a mid-level adjutant and an adjutant sent by the governor of Hong Kong, William.
William is three years younger than Luke this year. But he is also a major, and it is not difficult to ensure that there is a relationship in it, but William's analytical ability is still somewhat capable, and this operation is a joint operation of Hong Kong and India. There are even some things that the UK was not notified at all.
"William, it's you." After seeing the people coming in clearly, Luke smiled, and then poured a cup of coffee for William next to the coffee table on the side of the aisle and handed it to William: "What's the matter with being so late?" ”
There is something, of course there is something, but William, who took a sip of coffee, looked at Luke, then took out a piece of information and handed it to Luke: "Look at the news you just got, Lord Duanfang is ready to expand the strength of a town." ”
Recruitment, where are we getting the arms supply now, Luke was startled when he heard this, and then took the telegram from William and looked at it, indeed, it was written that Duan Fang had given an order to Commander Zhang Biao, asking for the formation of troops from one town to two towns in the Hunan region.
"Damn bastard, what does he want to do, don't you know that we don't have any weapons to equip him at the moment" Luke, who was wide-eyed, looked at William in front of him and asked with a puzzled expression.
This question is also a question that William wants to know, at the beginning, the Indian side and the Hong Kong side, after the final consultation, only then drew out the guns of the two towns, and then transferred some guns from the Far East Fleet, and finally gathered 50,000 guns, and trained nearly 50,000 troops for the governor of Huguang, Duanfang, and now Duanfang has to train the troops of nearly two towns, which makes it possible for him to go somewhere to equip them.
"I don't know, now in India and Hong Kong, there are no weapons to be found, it looks like we are going to report this matter to the Governor of India, let him decide, whether it is time to supplement the Huguang area again." William said after thinking for a moment.
It seems that this is the only way to do it at the moment, and Luke, who took a deep breath, looked at William in front of him, and he decided to agree with William's suggestion to send urgent telegrams to the Governor of India, Koran, and the Governor of Hong Kong, Nathan.
Didi ....... Didi ........ DiDi .......... At about ten o'clock in the evening, a flurry of telegrams was transmitted in the air. Started to go to Hong Kong.
In Xiangyang City, in the tick-tock telegraph room, there were bursts of radio waves, followed by bursts of crowds.
This is the telegraph office of the former enemy headquarters in Xiangyang to Huguang, and now, all the frequencies of the entire telegraph room are aimed at the Wuchang side.
Liu Jun gave the order three days ago. All telegrams in the front section of Hubei and Hunan had to listen to the situation in Hubei 24 hours a day, and report the situation as soon as it was discovered.
The secret of the British telegraph was discovered by the Intelligence Bureau a year ago, but until now, the British still think that this set of passwords is very secure.
Didi ....... Radio No. 3 is the radio station of the Corps Headquarters, and this radio station has a lot of power and can even monitor the situation in Jiangxi, not to mention a small Wuchang.
Doodoo ........ Doodoo ......... A shrill voice sounded, and the soldier, who had been engrossed in bringing a headset, listened for a moment, then turned to the telegraph chief who was sitting next to him and said in a loud voice: "There is a situation. ”
Bang bang....... Hearing that there was a situation, the chief of the telegraph department, who was drinking tea, immediately stood up from his chair, and then walked in front of the soldiers, grabbed a headset next to him, and began to listen.
"Write it down." Hearing a beeping sound, the telegraph chief quickly rushed to the side to take a paper and pen, and quickly translated the signal on it.
Two minutes later, the sound of the telegram stopped, picked up the paper and looked at the telegram director quickly translated the telegram and looked at the time, it is now ten o'clock in the evening, at this time, the commander has fallen asleep, but that day, the commander has already said when he gave the order, no matter when the telegram is received, it must be notified at the first time, after thinking twice, the telegraph director did not hesitate, but picked up the telegram and walked out.
Bang Bang Bang ......... Duan Qirui had slept for less than five minutes just now, and the quilt had not yet warmed up, and with a knock on the door, Duan Qirui turned over and sat up: "Who?" ”
"I'm Zhang Lin, the telegraph office just took over the emergency telegram to Wuchang." Zhang Lin, who was outside, said softly.
When I heard Zhang Lin's words, there were two words in it: Wuchang. Duan Qirui immediately opened the door and asked, "What's the situation?" ”
The telegram sent by Wuchang to Hong Kong was intercepted by us, this is the content of the telegram, can you take a look? Zhang Lin, who said this, handed the telegram to Duan Qirui.
It's amazing, Duan Qirui, who looked at the telegram, took a deep breath, and on this, two pieces of news were accurately revealed, first, the end side was going to form troops again. Second, in Hubei, there are not so many weapons at present.
"Immediately send a telegram to Baoji and inform Dashuai of the current situation in Hubei." Duan Qirui was satisfied with the slightest hesitation, but directly gave an order, lowered his head and thought for a while, Duan Qirui looked at Zhang Lin in front of him again, and then said: "Notify all the armies on the front line, prepare for battle, once the commander orders to attack in advance, we must be on call."
