The locomotive started slowly, Hu Fei waved to the workers through the window, and the workers of the repair shop also waved to see them off from the side of the car.

The train was moving very slowly at first, and it was almost impossible to feel that the front of the train had started. After a short time, as the wheels turned faster, I began to feel the movement of the train. Faster and faster, faster and faster, and after a few minutes, the locomotive quickly drove out of the garage gates.

The oil tanker truck was parked not far in front, and Hu Fei looked through the front window to see that the locomotive and the oil tanks did not seem to be on the same track.

Originally, there were only two occupants in the cab, the driver and the stoker, but now it feels a little small when it becomes three people. Hu Fei stood against the door, Ji Jinbiao put on an apron and gloves, and took a coal shovel to add coal to the boiler fire door. It wasn't until Liu Xinghua shouted to stop that he put down the shovel to wipe his sweat.

With a whistling, the locomotive drove past against the tanker. There was a fork in front of it, and the four railroad tracks were merged into two.

The front of the car stops after the fork, and then starts to drive backwards. Hu Fei knew that there were hooks between the trains, but he had never seen how the hooks were connected. Poke your head out of the window and look back, as if you could see how the train hooked.

"Bang dang!" There was a bang, as if it had hit something, and the whole front of the car vibrated for a moment, then slowly moved backwards for some distance, and then stopped again.

"Hung up?"

"Hung up!"

Hu Fei asked Liu Xinghua if the front of the car and the fuel tanker behind him were hung up, and Liu Xinghua replied that they were hung up. Before this, Hu Fei had already consulted Stationmaster Liu for a while on the issue of train hooking.

The current train hook is an automatic hook, which is said to have been invented by Zhan Tianyou, a famous railway engineering expert in China. In the past, the train hook was connected by manpower, but after the automatic hook was replaced, the two carriages could be automatically connected into a whole as long as they collided and the two hooks touched together.

In this regard, Hu Fei feels amazing! However, his curiosity had run out of time, and now there were fifteen minutes left before the first Devil Army Column made a pit stop!

Drive! Liu Xinghua manipulated the train to raise the speed to the highest, the train drove faster and faster, and the sound of "dong dong dong" became more and more urgent. Looking at the trees and buildings on both sides of the railway retreating rapidly, Hu Fei's heart slowly rose with an indomitable pride! A person's life is just like this train, no matter how many twists and turns it has experienced, it still has to roll forward all the way after all!

The tank train moved forward at high speed, and it didn't slow down when it passed Haicheng Station, but just whistled and whistled past. Hu Fei enjoyed the scenery along the way in the cab; Liu Xinghua carefully manipulated various instruments and meters; Ji Jinbiao was busy adding coal to the boiler, and the three of them seemed to have a tacit understanding.

A few minutes after the train left Haicheng Station, Liu Xinghua reminded Hu Fei: It's time to get off! It's time to get off so soon? Hu Fei has just become a train driver, and he is really nostalgic for this temporary profession.

Liu Xinghua slowed down the train and jumped out of the train first when he passed a curve. Hu Fei was the second to get off the bus. Grab the handle next to the door and look ahead. I saw the fairly flat ground on the side of the railway, and jumped into it!

The body began to adjust its balance in mid-air, and after the left foot landed, the right foot quickly stepped forward, followed the direction of the train, and ran forward quickly, and it took thirty or forty meters to resolve the forward momentum.

More than a hundred meters ahead, Ji Jinbiao also jumped out of the car. The mountain leopard is not as good as Hu Fei, and after falling to the ground, the bones of the body are one or twenty meters out. Fortunately, there were no big rocks or craters in the landing site they chose, and the soil under the ground was relatively soft, so the three of them were not injured.

Ji Jinbiao got up as soon as he could, turned around to look at Hu Fei, and was relieved to see that Hu Fei was walking towards him like a child. Liu Xinghua also ran over from not far behind, and after the three of them met, they looked up at the tank truck that was already in automatic driving.

A whistle came from a distance, and a train came from the opposite side of the tanker, a bit like a meeting car in a car. The car on the opposite side was relaxed and friendly when it met the train, but this time the train meeting was not at all easy and happy.

Coming from the opposite side was the Japanese military column that Hu Fei had been looking forward to for a long time, and there was a disgruntled brigade of more than 700 Japanese soldiers sitting on the military column. Led by Captain Jiro Okamura, he came by train to support Kaishiro!

Seeing that he was about to arrive in Haicheng, Jiro Okamura summoned all the main officers under his command to the exclusive carriage he contracted, planning to hold a pre-war mobilization meeting.

Because the Volunteers were making too much trouble in Haicheng, the new commander of the Kwantung Army, General Muto Nobuyoshi, drew troops from various garrisons around Mukden and temporarily formed a reinforcement brigade. At the same time, in order to show the importance that His Excellency the Commander attaches to Haicheng, Muto Nobuyoshi promoted Jiro Gangmura, who had been with him for more than two years, to Shaozo, and made him the captain of this mixed brigade and led his troops to support Haicheng.

When Gangmura Shaoza served as an orderly, he was quite valued by His Excellency the Commander, and the footwash he concocted cured General Muto's beriberi for many years! If such a cronie can be sent to the front line to fight, the generals of the headquarters will not fail to admire the spirit of His Excellency the commander in forgetting his selfishness in the course of duty. For the sake of the Empire's holy war, to be able to throw such close subordinates on the battlefield, Commander Muto really has superhuman courage!

Commander Muto was worried that this orderly soldier who had never been an officer would embarrass him in the army, so before leaving, he brought someone over alone and told him repeatedly: You must have a good relationship with your officers, ask questions if you don't understand, don't look down on people just because you have a backstage, and treat soldiers well!

In Muto Nobuyoshi's heart, a brigade of the well-armed and well-trained Japanese Kwantung Army would simply not be able to defeat the battle! Not to mention that there is only a group of volunteers in Haicheng, if you fight head-on, even a division of the Northeast Army facing Ma Zhanshan can easily win! What Jiro Gangmura has to do is to do a good job of unity, and don't let the officers of these temporary combinations under him fight among themselves, that is victory!

Naturally, Okamura Shosa's words to the commander were taken as holy decrees, and he was writing a speech at the pre-war mobilization meeting from the time he got on the train. After writing all the way, I finally wrote a 200-word outline, and saw that it was not far from Haicheng, so I organized people to come to this pre-war mobilization meeting!

"Ladies and gentlemen, Haicheng is an important station of the South Manchurian Railway, and one of the important strongholds of our Imperial Japanese Army in Manchuria. This time, I led all the monarchs to Haicheng to reinforce the city, just to let the Manchurians in Manchuria thoroughly understand the military might of our Imperial Japanese Army! Build Manchuria into a real royal paradise! ”

This guy turned the pre-war mobilization meeting into a political propaganda meeting, and the propaganda was still the same old routine that the Japanese army propagated on the radio and slogans on weekdays. Several of the officers in the meeting yawned quietly. If it weren't for the fact that he was a close confidant of the commander, most of the people at the meeting would have left!

As soon as the carriage door opened, a Japanese soldier hurriedly ran through the door.
