"Hiss......" Lin Zhun, who had just stepped onto the bridge, hissed as soon as he came up. Although the pen & fun & pavilion www.biquge.info was wrapped in a quilt, he still felt cold and wanted to shiver, and the early summer sun was like a painting in the sky, and there was no heat at all. At this time, the temperature outside was minus four degrees, and the command tower was surrounded by ice slag, and the sea passed, and the island of Sispitsi-Balgen was on the other side of the sky, where it was a vast snowfield, and the only thing that made people feel that there was still some life was the black spot with sesame seeds in the white snowfield, which should be houses and mines, etc., not at all like the island of hope that there was no other than ice and snow.

"You kid!" Li Kongrong, who was full of scum, looked at Lin Zhun with some disdain when he was so afraid of the cold, U-38 held an ice and snow swimming competition on Hope Island, and Lin Zhun was actually the worst one, so he had an extra nickname: Lin Kidney Loss. "You still want to land on the island with me like a bear?"

"Didn't you draw lots?" Lin Zhun's face was full of grievances, he raised the telescope with his trembling hands, saw that the land was still far away, and hurriedly said, "It's not there yet, I'll go down first." ”

"What are you going down for?" Li Kongrong glared at him, he was also wrapped in a quilt, but he seemed to be more hardy. "It's impossible for a submarine to get that close, there's someone in this place."

"Shall you go by rubber boat now?" Li Kongrong's legs were already on the ladder, and only his head was exposed.

"No, now, when will you row?" Li Kongrong asked rhetorically, "How can we explain how we came here?" There are only a few hundred people in this place, and there are more bears than people, so everyone knows who is who. ”

Li Kongrong had previously consulted information on Svalbard, and all the population of the entire archipelago was concentrated on the island of Sispitsi-Balgen, and all the people of this island were concentrated in the small town of Longyearbyen, which was founded before World War I when the American John Monroe Longyearbyen discovered a large coal field. Li Kongrong's consideration was that since there was a mine, there would naturally be external communication telegrams and the like, so he wanted to try his luck.

"Okay, I, I'll just wait." Lin Zhun climbed up again, but shrunk his head to avoid the sea breeze.

"Sir, will you go now?" Wang Guogui, who was on duty with Li Kongrong, asked, his face was already purple from the cold.

"Yes, it can't be any closer, take out the rubber boat and inflate it immediately." Li Kongrong put down the telescope and said. Soon, a black rubber boat was brought up from the cabin, and while Gao Guangyou was leading the people to inflate on the foredeck, two bowls of ginger soup and two bottles of whiskey were delivered from the galley.

"Fuck you!" After drinking the ginger soup, Li Kongrong yelled at the sky, and then took the wood pulp handed by Gao Guangyou and got on the rubber boat with Lin Zhun. The sea is cold and you can see small pieces of ice floating in the distance. Looking up at the sun hanging in the sky again, he and Lin Zhun began to paddle their sculls towards Longyearbyen.

"Sir, are we going to wait here?" Wang Guogui watched Li Kongrong leave the boat, and there was an urge to follow the past.

"Just wait here, they'll be back soon." Gao Guangyou rubbed his hands vigorously and sighed, but it was useless, he immediately called everyone on the deck back to the cabin, then closed the hatch, and ordered the submarine to dive to avoid the cold.

The submarine disappeared into the sea, while the rubber boat slowly approached the shore, turning a cloud of ice and snow, and the two saw the trestle bridge on the shore and the houses in the town of Longyearbyen, but the most obvious thing was the radio antenna towering high up, which was the target of the two men.

"What should we say?" Getting closer and closer to the coast, Lin Zhun couldn't remember the excuses made up on the submarine.

"Don't speak." Li Kongrong rowed hard, and his stomach was still savoring the residual warmth of the bowl of ginger soup. "Just think of me as my sidekick. I would tell them that our ship was in the open sea, and then I would come ashore and do some shopping. ”

"Understood." Just now, Lin Zhun saw Li Kongrong's British passport on the submarine, which is why he became an attendant. "Do you have to check your passport here?" Lin Zhun thought of the passport and asked again.

"No, Svalbard does not require a passport to enter, including Chinese. We don't have to make them think that we are Chinese, it is better to make them think that you are Japanese and I am British. Li Kongrong explained. In fact, he didn't know if the people on the island would tell the Germans the news that 'two yellow men appeared here', which was why he went ashore with a gun, but everything was too much to worry about, until he approached Longyearbyen's telegraph office, no one paid attention to him and Lin Zhun.

"Sir, may I have anything to do for you?" The receptionist at the telegraph office was not surprised to look at the two yellow people, there were yellow people on the island, and there were in the coal mines. It's just that these two are a little neater than them.

"I want to send a telegram." Norwegian is somewhat similar to German, and Li Kongrong does not dare to speak German and speaks English. The other party didn't seem to understand English, but he understood what he meant, and gave him a telegram slip.

"Where?" When Li Kongrong filled out the telegram form, Lin Zhun came over. "Is it a radio?"

"It's better to send it to Switzerland." Li Kongrong has been thinking about the telegram for the past few days, it is too far to send it to New York, Germany is very unsafe, and only Switzerland is the most suitable. "I'll send them the U-38 with its location and call sign, and then ask them to send a supply merchant ship that can call us when they arrive at the agreed location."

"Okay." Lin Zhun nodded. U-38 fuel and fresh water are available, but there is a lack of supplies on board, especially vegetables, and as for the staple food, everyone hunted two polar bears and dragged them to the submarine to improve their lives when they were on Hope Island.

The written telegram was handed to the receptionist, but it was a little troublesome to pay, neither of them had Norwegian currency on them, but fortunately, the remaining dollars in Li Kongrong's wallet when he went to the United States last year helped, and the receptionist only drew a ten-dollar note, and then found change. This made Li Kongrong a little happy, it seems that the dollar is common here.

The cable telegram was sent to Switzerland, and after sending the telegram, Li Kongrong went shopping in the town, but fortunately, ships came from time to time in the town to buy supplies, and their behavior was not noticeable. An hour later, the two men, who had bought sacks of potatoes and onions, left the town again in rubber boats.

"Brother Ziba...... "At the New China Defense Research Institute in Switzerland, Wei Ru, who was checking the latest report of the penicillin laboratory, was startled by Lu Mocheng's shouting, and before he could answer, Lu Mocheng ran in." You see! You see! Brother Hansheng is still alive!! ”

Lu Mocheng was also one of the founders of the former Xinzhong Engineering Company, and he came to work in Switzerland after the reorganization of Xinzhong Engineering into Xinzhong Defense. He was very clear about the relationship between the defense and navy and Li Kongrong in Singapore, and when he heard that Li Kongrong had been martyred, he could not believe it, and just as he was slowly accepting the reality, a telegram signed by Li Kongrong was sent to the research institute, and he immediately ran over to report the news in a hurry.

"I'll see, I'll see." Wei Ru snatched the telegram, only to see that it was in English, in addition to the sentence 'need to be replenished', there were also two strings of numbers, he stood up excitedly and jumped a few times, and then took the telegram around the desk twice before saying: "What does this number represent?" What does this number mean?! ”

The numbers are divided into two strings, one long and one short. Wei Ru understood that this must be a riddle, most likely latitude and longitude, but he couldn't see anything. Lu Mocheng reminded: "Oops! Aren't the navy's passwords all made up by Brother Luo Geng with someone, let's just look for him. ”

"Yes, yes, yes!" Wei Ru was also overjoyed, forgetting that one of the major tasks of Li Kongrong to invite domestic mathematicians to Switzerland was to compile naval codes and decipher Japanese codes. He hurriedly grabbed the telegram and went straight to the mathematics laboratory, but Lu Mocheng, who was fast-paced, couldn't catch up with him, a fat man.

"They're right here." Looking at the password on the telegram, Hua Luogeng calculated and then wrote a string of numbers on the paper, and then clicked it somewhere at the northernmost point of the Atlantic Ocean. "They also have a telegraph that accepts radio, the frequency is fifteen hundred kilohertz, and the call sign is XL038."

"Great!" Wei Ru shook his arm vigorously, and he said, "I'll go and save people right away." ”

"I'll go too." Lu Mocheng also said loudly. He doesn't think that Li Kongrong is treason for driving away German submarines, so why should he invest millions of dollars to set up the New China Defense Company if he wants to commit treason?

"If you want to go, go as soon as possible, don't delay." Hua Luogeng also had a smile on his face, and he was also happy. "This telegram was sent by a civilian telegram, and it is likely that someone will eavesdrop on it, although there is a password, but the password can be broken if there is time."

Hua Luogeng reminded that he had been fascinated by studying passwords in the past two years. Wei Ruyan asked, "Then how much time do we have?" ”

"Ten days, I can guarantee it." Hua Luogeng thought for a moment before answering, "Anyway, it can be cracked within ten days with our computer, I don't know how the Germans are." This place is close to Tromsø in Norway, so I recommend that you apply to enter Norway and then charter a boat in Tromsø to go to this place, and then call when you get there. ”

Hua Luogeng gave his fastest way, but Wei Ru was a little worried, he said: "We rent someone else's boat, if we ......"

"Give the money." Lu Mocheng interrupted: "As long as they are given enough money, they may not talk nonsense." Then it is to rent farther, such as directly to China or the United States, and when they return to Norway, Hansheng and they will have already gone away. ”

"But ......" Wei Ru was still hesitating, he was worried that no one would go to rent so far away. But he was even more worried that Li Kongrong and them were in danger, so he nodded and said, "Okay, just do it." We went with Mr. Isatt of the company. ”

Wei Ru temporarily thought of another person, that is, the company recruited a person in charge of government public relations last year, he is white, and it will be easier for him to charter a boat.

When Wei Ru and Lu Mocheng went to the Norwegian Embassy in Switzerland to apply for visas, Li Kongrong and Lin Zhun were stepping onto the deck of the U-38, and Lin Xiangguang was carrying potatoes and onions on the rubber boat.

"How?" After the two of them went down to the boat, a crew of people surrounded them. Only then did everyone find out that both of them had changed into bearskin coats, which were bought at Longyearbyen.

"Tsk, bear skin...... Su Jinghu, who had just run out of the diesel engine room to warm up, stretched out his hand and wiped it on Lin Zhun's body, he exclaimed: "It's so warm, come on, borrow me to wear it for a while, it's too cold." ”

Su Jinghu's words caused everyone to laugh, and Li Kongrong said: "Bearskin coats are cheap there, and we used the money left over to buy vegetables to buy three, and whoever is on duty on the bridge will wear them in the future." ”

The people surrounding Li Kongrong were all wrapped in quilts, and when they heard Li Kongrong say that the bearskin coats were prepared for the officers on duty, these people who were so cold that they couldn't help but applaud. The oxygen supply of the submarine is limited, and everyone was on duty on the bridge with two quilts before, but it was still cold, but fortunately, diesel fuel and fresh water were enough, and the kitchen was constantly boiling hot soup to barely hold on. Now it's different with a bearskin coat, this thing looks thin, but it is very warm to wear.

"Alright, I'll give you a briefing." Li Kongrong waited for everyone to be quiet before he began to speak. "There is a telegraph station on the island, and I have sent the telegram, and it is expected that the supply ships will arrive at the meeting point in ten days, but because we cannot stay on the island for long, we have not waited for the other party to call back, so if we can't wait for the call after ten days, then we will have to come again. This time, we bought enough potatoes and onions for more than ten days, but there was not enough rice, so we had to hunt two more bears......"

Li Kongrong said that everyone clapped happily when he hunted two bears to eat, everyone likes to eat bear meat, especially like to stew bear meat to eat, but there are no vegetables on the boat, and everyone is tired of eating meat in a few days. Now there are sacks of potatoes and onions, and the kitchen can make bear stew with potatoes again.

The U-38 was lively discussing how to hunt bears, and the telegram sent from Switzerland was the first to reach New York, and after being declassified, the telegram was sent to Chen Jiliang and Lin Xianxi. After reading only one sentence of the telegram, Chen Jiliang got up, but his back injury was still there, and he just came and sat down again.

"Good!" Chen Jiliang endured his back pain and pounded the table excitedly, "It's good that Hansheng is alive!" ”

"Okay, okay." Lin Xianxin snatched the telegram and looked at it, his face changed several times, and he also shouted a few words of goodness. "But this matter has to be kept secret!" Lin Xianxin was careful after all, "If the Germans find out, they will definitely have to act aggressively." Don't let good things turn bad. ”

"That's right." Chen Jiliang nodded heavily, "You and I and the Director of Telecommunications know about this matter, and no one else should disclose it." After saying this decision, he pounded the table again, "Xiang Xin, we have a submarine!" When will they come to the United States? ”

"According to Hansheng's plan in advance, he planned to come to the United States immediately to install a snorkel for the submarine." Lin Xianxin said. "It's in that shipyard in Maine. Don't be prepared to alarm the Americans, just sneak in. ”

"Snorkel?" Of course, Chen Jiliang has heard of this thing, and the shipyard was experimenting with it last year. "What about the cruise ship?" He asked.

"Once loaded, you can hunt down cruise ships across the ocean, that's what Hansheng thinks." Lin Xianxin said with a smile, he felt that what Chen Jiliang said before was not wrong at all, Li Hansheng was a big robber. (To be continued.) )
