Chapter 548: Hurry up and decipher

Li He has dealt with the Japanese for many years, and he knows that the Japanese are very suspicious, and if the telegram is sent with great fanfare, the Japanese will not believe it, so he thinks that after Liu Jun's report, he suggests that it be sent in encryption, and Liu Jun is very satisfied with this request, so he let Zhong Lin deal with it.

After all, this telegram is to fool the Japanese, so instead of saying that Zhong Lin is encrypting the telegram for the Japanese, it is better to jump a number for each piece of information, a particularly simple way to crack it.

At the Lushun Headquarters, Zhong Lin silently looked at Liu Jun who was sitting on a chair playing with a pistol, and his heart was terrified.

"Head, do you think the Japanese will decipher this telegram?" Bowing his head and pondering, Zhong Lin stepped forward and asked, he was still a little worried, this telegram could not be deciphered in time, so there was no way to fight this battle of attacking Tokyo.

This one? After thinking for a while, Liu Jun put the freshly produced pistol in his hand on the table: "If you are Japanese, will you decipher it?" ”

This is not nonsense, I know that it is important information, and it is iron-hearted to decipher.

"Yes." Without the slightest hesitation, Zhong Lin nodded and said.

"That's right, you will decipher it, don't the Japanese know the importance of this information." After Liu Jun finished speaking, he picked up the pistol again and looked at it a few times, and then put it in a drawer.

"Wait for the news, now, let's just wait for the news from Japan." After Liu Jun finished speaking, he picked up the teacup next to him.

Movement, in the room of the Intelligence Department, although the outside is scorching hot, but in the Decipherment Center of the Intelligence Department, the temperature inside is very cool.

More than a dozen people were in the room, guessing and analyzing a piece of information.

Knock knock, a sound of leather shoes. The staff who were busy looked up and saw that it was Minister Inoue who had come in, and they all immediately stopped what they were doing and began to bow their heads and salute.

"How's it going, have you deciphered it?" Coming to the position, Inoue sat down and asked the director of the decipherment center standing next to him.

"Report Your Excellency Inoue Xin, it is being deciphered, but the encrypted identity of the telegram sent by Liaodong is complicated, and we are doing our best to break it."

Haven't deciphered it yet, Inoue Xin suddenly frowned when she heard this, now the intelligence has been sent here for nearly two days, and according to the intelligence, the Liaodong fleet in Weihai has been replenished, and it may leave the port at any time, if this information is not quickly deciphered, then it will be a huge disaster for the empire.

"However, we've cracked part of it." After the director finished speaking, he handed Inoue a note from the side, and Inoue Xin took it, and saw that there were many fonts broken on it.

"Attack."

What does that mean? Inoue looked up at the director of the decipherment center in confusion.

"Hurry up and decipher it as soon as possible." After Inoue-xin finished speaking, she turned around and walked out, after all, she still had to go to the Prime Minister's Office and tell the Prime Minister about it.

After a few more commands, Inoue Xin walked out of the intelligence department and began to walk towards the prime minister's mansion.

As soon as he entered the Prime Minister's Office, he saw Ito Hirobumi standing in front of the wall of his office, looking at the huge map and contemplating something.

"How? Has the intelligence been deciphered? Listening to the footsteps, I knew it was Inoue Xin's Ito Hirobumi and asked.

"Part of the decipherment has been determined, the Weihai Fleet is going to attack a target, but where is it, the Ministry of Intelligence is seizing the time to decipher." Inoue honestly talked about the situation in the Ministry of Intelligence.

Determined to attack, but could not find the target, this made Ito Hirobumi how to order the Admiralty that the combined fleet should not be driven to Weihai to block the port like ten years ago, what is the difference between that and looking for death.

"Look, where will the Weihai fleet attack?" Ito Hirobumi looked down and thought for a moment, then pointed to the map hanging on the wall.

This, Inoue Xin looked down for a moment, judging from the above topographic map and the current situation, there are only two targets for the Weihai fleet, one is North Korea, and the other is Vladivostok.

However, where it is, Inoue does not dare to guarantee. However, Ito Hirobumi's question had to be answered, and after a few careful looks, Inoue Shin took the command from the side and pointed to the sea route from Korea to Japan and said: "Your Excellency, Prime Minister, from the perspective of your subordinates, the attack of the Weihai Fleet must be aimed at intercepting our escort fleet returning from Korea.

Jun Zhi saw the same ah, getting this answer, Ito Hirofumi nodded seriously, just now, after careful analysis, he also believed that the order issued by Liaodong Lushun to the Weihai Fleet must have been to attack the 50,000 Japanese troops withdrawn from Korea.

After all, in Ito Hirobumi's view, these 50,000 troops are not a small number, and once they are allowed to return to Weihai smoothly, this will be a huge threat to Liaodong and even German Tsarist Russia.

"You're right, I think so too," Ito Hirobumi said, pointing to the map above and saying, "My 50,000-strong army, with the help of the convoy and the navy, is landing in the area of Shikoku and Sasebo, and Liaodong has been calm for so long, it must be trying to sneak attack our army with the Weihai fleet, so as to achieve their goal and weaken the vitality of our army." ”

What a good analysis. Inoue Xin nodded seriously: "The prime minister has analyzed it thoroughly, and his subordinates admire it." Saying this, Inoue Xin stepped forward: "Then you see, do you need to ask His Excellency Sukehiro Ito to immediately dispatch the main force of the combined fleet to join the escort." ”

There is no need, after all, all this is just speculation, what is the specific situation, and we have to wait until the intelligence bureau talks about the decipherment of the telegram, shaking his head slightly, Ito Hirofumi said lightly: "Don't use it for the time being, we still wait for a fright." ”

It seems that there is only that, Inoue Xin nodded, this is just an analysis after all.

A tick-tock sound sounded in the Didi Didi telegraph room again, and the deciphering staff in the intelligence center quickly finished copying the words on it, and handed it over to the telegraph officer next to him in a few steps.

Skilled intelligence officers don't have to look through their notes to see what the numbers mean.

A pencil was taken from the side, and the staff wrote the telegram on paper in a few clicks.

"The Liaodong Lushun fleet is loading supplies."

Brush, the cold sweat on the face of the intelligence director who took the telegram article suddenly flowed out.

"Immediately to the Prime Minister's Office." Without the slightest hesitation, the intelligence chief gave the clearest order. He knew very well what this telegram meant.
