Episode 111 The Legendary Japanese Ship

Xiang Xiaoqiang stared at her deadly.

This stupid girl has touched his bottom line. He was still going to respect her and not be rough with her. He originally thought that if this Miss Xue really didn't want to get out of the way, then he wouldn't have to pay attention to her, and bypass her and get on the plane directly. If she is spicy, then she will pull her clothes a few times at most, and it will not be a big deal, it will be nothing more than a loss of face.

But now this Xue Yuzhen openly threatens his subordinates and Li Guoliang's subordinates who follow him, which is forcing him to have no way out. If you don't "rude" her today, then in the eyes of her subordinates, in the eyes of Li Guoliang's subordinates, and in the eyes of Li Guoliang, she will always be a person with limited power. In the future, things like the last time Zheng Gongyin set up a bureau to frame himself will happen from time to time.

Only by making everyone think that he is the most powerful person in the Ming Dynasty except for Zhu Yourong will he form a power group that surpasses everything around him.

And this kind of thing is absolutely not allowed to happen.

Xiang Xiaoqiang stared at Xue Yuzhen for a while, and suddenly shouted loudly:

"Hu Jiong!"

"Yes!"

"I order, pull this Miss Yushi aside!"

Hu Jiong swallowed dryly, and after a second, shouted:

"Yes!"

As he spoke, he strode forward, and he was about to pull Xue Yuzhen with his hands.

Xue Yuzhen glared at him and said coldly:

"You dare! Do you know how many years you're going to be sentenced to? ”

Hu Jiong swallowed another mouthful of dry saliva, glanced at Xiang Xiaoqiang, and did not hesitate, closed his eyes and directly grabbed Xue Yuzhen's arm, and said loudly:

"Miss, I'm sorry, please get out of the way!"

Xue Yuzhen screamed, and was pulled out several steps away by Hu Jiong.

The surrounding airport commanders and airport gendarmes were all watching dumbfounded, and even Xiang Xiaoqiang's own guards looked a little nervous.

Xiang Xiaoqiang sneered and said:

"Let's get on the plane."

With that, Xiuxiu got on the plane first. Xiang Xiaoqiang also got on the plane. Standing at the hatch, he waved to the airfield commander below and shouted:

"Thank you! Wait for me to say hello to you, Commander Li! ”

The airport commander came to his senses at this time, and quickly nodded and said, "Definitely." Immediately afterwards, a squad of guards also climbed onto the plane. Hu Jiong: The last one. He let go of Xue Yuzhen, his face was red and white, and he bowed and said:

"Miss, I'm sorry! The military order is like a mountain, please bear with me! ”

As he spoke, he turned around and climbed the gangway.

Xue Yuzhen rubbed her arms, her face flushed with anger, and tears rolled in her eyes. She stared fiercely at the door, didn't say anything, turned around and strode towards the airport terminal. The airfield commander hurriedly stepped forward and said politely:

"Miss, where do you want to go?"

"Do you have a phone?" Miss Xue was so angry that she was about to go crazy, striding and waving her briefcase, "I want to call!" Xiang Xiaoqiang, he's finished! ”

……

The plane began to accelerate, getting faster and faster on the runway, and then slowly left the ground.

Xiang Xiaoqiang looked at the gradually smaller airport below, turned his face and said with a smile to Hu Jiong:

"How's it going, were you a little nervous when you executed the order just now?"

Hu Jiong was indeed very scared at this time. But he knew that Xiang Xiaoqiang was also forced to do so by Nizi, who was not afraid of the ground that day. And he also knew that Xiang Xiaoqiang's use of military orders was to protect him. Xiang Xiaoqiang's "Hu Jiong, I order you" just now is what it means to everyone present. In this way, if the Metropolitan Procuratorate really calculates the accounts in the future, it is completely against Xiaoqiang himself, and it has nothing to do with Hu Jiong. He's just carrying out military orders.

Hu Jiong smiled cautiously:

"Don't hide it, I was a little nervous at the time. …… But that woman is too unrecognizable. ”

Xiang Xiaoqiang smiled slightly, leaned his head on the back of the seat, and sighed:

"To be honest, I'm a little guilty right now. You're right, she doesn't know each other. It's good if you don't know each other! I remembered when we were buying arms...... Whether it is Lian Feng or Qi Shunfa, when the product is picked on in my hands, they are also sincerely afraid, accompanied by smiling faces, carefully explained, and promised to improve...... But I never dared to do one thing, and that was to stuff me with red envelopes.

"I have been in Daming for so long, I have established the People's Guard, and I have done so many things, and I have been circling the cabinet, Dongchang, army, and navy...... Between these departments, I have seen the real power of the people, who have more power than me, and who have less power than me...... However, they didn't stuff me with money, and I didn't stuff them with money. Things should still be done, and they are all done well.

"Why? It is because Daming is composed of these 'unacquainted' people. Metropolitan Prosecutor's Office, courts, prosecutor's office, investigation bureau of the Ministry of the Interior, police station...... The people inside are like the female imperial history below, very unfamiliar. So Daming is today's Daming. But everyone knows that in another place, in Beiqing, which is across the river from us, the people there are too 'acquainted'. Civilians, officers, judges, and policemen...... The common people have to get acquainted. There, if you don't know each other, you can't even live. ”

No one in the plane spoke, except for the roar of the engines. Everyone looked at Xiang Xiaoqiang there and sighed very devotedly. Xiuxiu quietly put her hand on the back of Xiang Xiaoqiang's hand and held it gently.

Xiang Xiaoqiang said suddenly:

"If I have the chance, I'm going to apologize to that female imperial history."

As soon as the words came out, he was stunned. Xiuxiu immediately looked at him very sensitively, and her heart became worried.

……

The plane flew southeast toward the sun at 9 o'clock in the morning, and landed at the HNA base in Zhujiajian an hour and a half later. Zhujiajian is the fifth largest island in the Zhoushan archipelago, and on the west side is Zhoushan Island, where the main port of the East China Sea Fleet is located. To the north is more than a nautical mile is the "Haitian Buddha Country" Putuo Mountain.

The East China Sea Fleet is the largest fleet of the Ming Dynasty, and it is also the main fleet that has traditionally served as the defense of the homeland. All six battleships of the Ming Navy were usually in the East China Sea Fleet, parked in the home port of Zhoushan Island. There are more than 1,300 large and small islands in the Zhoushan archipelago, with more than 20,000 square kilometers of sea area. Therefore, the East China Sea Fleet adopts an open defense, with Zhoushan Island as the center, and the capital ships are all here.

Some of the larger islands to the outside, especially those with good harbors, have sub-harbors and light and heavy cruisers moored. A large number of destroyers are also parked in these sub-ports, patrolling from time to time to prevent submarines or torpedo boats from other countries from sneaking into the islands and causing sabotage. More small islands, which do not have port conditions, are building several concrete trestle bridges as shallow water docks, and building torpedo speedboat bases on the islands. These torpedo boats will patrol secondary places where those destroyers do not reach.

On other large islands with towns and better living conditions, there are concrete submarine caves, which are submarine bases. The submarine force, consisting mainly of girls, is on it.

On the higher hills of the Zhoushan Islands, as well as on the islands and reefs in important locations, powerful shore defense batteries and anti-aircraft batteries have been built. There are very few artillery blind spots above 7,000 meters, and the entire archipelago can form a dense network of firepower.

However, although there are many islands, they are mostly mountain islands, and there are few flat lands, and even fewer islands can be used to build airports. That is, Zhoushan Island, Zhujiajian, Daishan Island, and Qushan Island. Among them, Zhujiajian has the best conditions and the largest airport, so it is also used as the main base of the East China Sea Fleet. Because four airfields are not enough, half of the air defense tasks of the East China Sea Fleet will be undertaken by the coastal airfields of Shanghai and Zhejiang. Those coastal airfields also belong to the naval aviation system of the East China Sea Fleet.

The entire East China Sea Fleet is widely distributed on the huge Zhoushan Islands, with three-dimensional cross-defense of sea, land, and air, and home ports, sub-ports, large bases, small bases, large airports, and small airports...... In Xiang Xiaoqiang's opinion, this is simply like a kingdom on the sea.

"Japan has the Seto Inland Sea, and we have the Zhoushan Islands."

Xiang Xiaoqiang got off the plane with the gangway at Zhujiajian Airport, thinking excitedly in his heart that this is what a naval power should have.

The commander of the aviation of the East China Sea Fleet personally came to greet Xiang Xiaoqiang.

On the plane, Xiang Xiaoqiang had already received a radio report from the East China Sea Fleet that they had damaged the prince's seaplane as requested, and the seaplane engine had to make a forced landing with black smoke. But the plane landed not in the vast sea, but only a few hundred meters from the Sijiao Mountain. But when the patrol boat arrived next to the seaplane and was about to go up to arrest them, they found only two pilots, and when they asked them, they said that the prince and the retinue had swam ashore.

While accompanying Xiang Xiaoqiang, the commander of the East China Sea Fleet Aviation introduced to him an officer in charge of the sea search: Major Zhang Mingyu.

The young major immediately shook hands with Xiang Xiaoqiang very enthusiastically and said with a smile:

"To your lord! You don't remember me? ”

Xiang Xiaoqiang also saw that this Zhang Mingyu was very familiar, and suddenly remembered, and laughed:

"Haha, Captain Zhang, it turned out to be you! Okay, good, we're meeting again! ”

Then, he turned to Xiuxiu and introduced:

"This is what I told you, Captain of the Kui Wood Wolf. Let's kill pirates in Malacca. ”

Xiuxiu also showed a look of surprise, shook hands with him with a smile, and said "Captain Zhang has been admired for a long time". Zhang Mingyu was naturally flattered, and said again and again, "Mrs. dare not be".

After the commander of the aviation introduced Zhang Mingyu to Xiang Xiaoqiang, he said goodbye and left, and Zhang Mingyu was responsible for introducing the rest. Zhang Mingyu took Xiang Xiaoqiang and Xiuxiu to get into a chief's car and go to Zhujiajian Military Port. In the car, he said that after hearing that the prince and the others jumped out of the plane and swam to Sijiao Mountain, he informed the Sijiao Mountain Military Port to send marines to search for them. However, Sijiao Mountain is very large, more than 20 square kilometers, and there are only about 10 fishing villages. And in addition to the cruiser military port, there is also a submarine base. Therefore, there are many cargo ships and liners coming and going on the island. If you don't get it right, let the prince and them take advantage of it.

Xiang Xiaoqiang was lying in the open-top chief's car, feeling the salty sea breeze blowing on his face, listening to the seabirds croaking on his head, but he didn't feel relaxed and happy at all.

"How far is Sijiao Mountain from here?" He asked.

Zhang Mingyu replied:

"To the north of us, there are more than eighty kilometers. But adults don't have to worry, we will go to the port by seaplane, it won't be too long. Hehe, after catching someone at noon, I will treat you to our steamed hairtail. Alive, steamed, adults must not have eaten it. ”

Xiang Xiaoqiang knew that he was pretending to be relaxed and comforting himself, but he was still a little relieved. In any case, this is much easier to hunt down than on the mainland. No matter how big the island is, it's still an island, and you can't run out. As long as the island is sealed off and all ships are ordered to cease sailing, the prince will be the turtle in the urn.

So, he started thinking about the steamed hairtail at noon. Not to mention, I am inland, and the hairtail fish I usually eat is dried salted fish, and it is braised red. Such a fresh steamed is estimated to be eaten only in the Zhoushan Fishery, which is rich in hairtail fish.

At the Zhujiajian Military Port, the group, together with a squad of guards, took an "albatross" water transport plane and flew north. In less than an hour, they landed at the Sijiaoshan Military Port.

There were two tall cruisers and several destroyers moored in the Sijiaoshan military port. Xiang Xiaoqiang recognized the Kui Wood Wolf at a glance.

As soon as they stepped on the shore, they saw several young junior officers running over angrily and reporting to Zhang Mingyu. Their faces were flushed, and they didn't even notice Xiang Xiaoqiang next to them.

"What?!" Zhang Mingyu and Xiang Xiaoqiang shouted at the same time, "That guy hijacked another boat and went to sea?!" ”

Xiang Xiaoqiang was about to be stunned. What is this dignified Ming East China Sea Fleet for! How can a fugitive like a lost dog hijack a ship right under their noses?

At this time, several young officers also recognized Xiang Xiaoqiang and exclaimed one after another.

But Xiang Xiaoqiang couldn't care about posing anymore, and directly viciously asked them to explain the situation.

It turned out that when Xiang Xiaoqiang first arrived at Zhujiajian Airport, a small liner at the Sijiaoshan Submarine Base was carrying 20 female submariners on leave and sailed northwest to Shanghai. Less than a mile from the port, the captain spotted two men, ragged and pale-skinned, waving for help on a reef. So the little liner sailed over to save people.

Unexpectedly, after the girls pulled the two men onto the boat, the two men immediately drew two pistols, aimed them at them, and then restrained the captain and the helmsman. The movements are like a leopard, where it looks like a person who has fallen into the water.

Since it was less than two kilometers from the military port, all this was seen by the sentries on the shore with binoculars. Then the alarm was sounded, and the patrol boat quickly left the harbor and followed. But those two men took the twenty female soldiers on the ship, as well as the captain and the helmsman as hostages, and shouted through the microphone, saying that he was the prince of Siam, persecuted by the Ming Dynasty, and now there was no way, and whoever wanted to come would kill the girls on the ship.

Hearing that he was the prince of Siam, the patrol boat did not dare to act lightly. Now he only dared to follow behind, and he did not dare to risk leaning forward, let alone shooting.

"And now?" Xiang Xiaoqiang said angrily.

"To your lordship...... I'm still following suit. ”

Xiang Xiaoqiang was furious and scolded:

"What are the twenty submariners on board doing, just restrained by two pistols? Don't dare to resist? ”

The officers next to them looked at each other, and no one dared to speak.

Xiuxiu bit her lip and said softly:

"My lord, those are all girls. Besides, they were on vacation and didn't bring weapons. …… Adult, you can't ask all those girls to be like you. ”

Xiang Xiaoqiang was stunned, he looked at Xiuxiu, and suddenly felt that she was right. yes, those are all girls like Xiuxiu. They may also be like Xiuxiu, they also have mothers and younger brothers...... When confronted with the guns of two vicious men, the defenseless will most likely only pray that they will survive and have a chance to return to their mother and brother.

He sighed, nodded at Xiuxiu, and also nodded to the officers, as an apology to them. Then he asked:

"What now? What are you going to do with the East China Sea Fleet? ”

The officers also looked at each other, obviously without an idea. waved his hand to Xiaoqiang and said:

"Map!"

"Lord Xiang," Zhang Mingyu hurriedly said, "Please come with me, there is one in the office building." ”

The group walked briskly into an office building in the military port and set up headquarters in a conference room.

On the wall is a large map of the East China Sea.

Xiang Xiaoqiang stood in front of the map, frowned and asked:

"That little liner is supposed to be heading east?"

"Yes, sir. It seems that they want to go to Japan. ”

"How about this small liner voyage? How fast is it? ”

Zhang Mingyu replied:

"Lord Xiang, the voyage is 300 nautical miles, and I can barely get to Japan. The speed is still very fast, up to 24 knots, but if they want to have enough fuel, they can't go according to the maximum range, they have to follow the economic speed, which is 15 knots. ”

Xiang Xiaoqiang glanced at Xiuxiu, and Xiuxiu said softly:

"36 hours."

"36 hours, to the west coast of Japan's Kyushu Island," Xiang Xiaoqiang said in a deep groan, "That's just to enter Japan's territorial waters, how long does it take?" ”

Zhang Mingyu replied again:

"We and Japan are disputed over the demarcation of territorial waters. About 100 nautical miles to the east, you will enter the disputed waters. There were often patrols by Japanese warships. ”

"Hmm......" Xiang Xiaoqiang lowered his head, pinched his chin, and a glimmer of inspiration flashed in his eyes, "You mean, 150 nautical miles to the east, there will be Japanese warships patrolling frequently......"

"Yes, sir. That is, after their 8-12 hour flight. ”

Xiang Xiaoqiang pinched his chin and began to walk repeatedly. He became a little excited, patted his head, and muttered:

"8 to 12 hours...... Well, it should be enough for us to prepare......"

"Your Excellency?"

"And the destination of their trip," Xiang Xiaoqiang continued to mutter, "it is the ...... of Japan"

"Yes, my lord, but ......"

Xiang Xiaoqiang stood still and let everyone else withdraw, leaving only Xiuxiu, Hu Jiong and Zhang Mingyu. Then, he spoke the creative ideas in his head.

Suddenly, several people looked at him dumbfounded. Immediately, Xiuxiu praised:

"My lord! What a brilliant idea! …… I just don't know Lord Zhang, do we have the conditions on our side of the East China Sea Fleet? ”

Zhang Mingyu was also very excited by this idea, he grinned and said:

"This ...... I'll have to ask our commander ......."

Xiang Xiaoqiang immediately asked him to coordinate. Then, he asked Xiuxiu to move out of the radio station and send a report to the headquarters of the People's Guard, asking them to send ten to twenty excellent Japanese agents, young ones, not seasick, preferably familiar with warships.

Then, he sent a long, top-secret telegram to Fourteen Gege, telling her about his plan and asking her to polish it. He knew that Fourteen Grid was a master at playing this kind of plan.

Pinch hey, hey, play doesn't kill him.

Soon Fourteen called back as well. She also thinks that Xiang Xiaoqiang's idea is very feasible, but it may also involve some "small issues" at the political level, the international law level, and the level of tomorrow's relations. But in her eyes, it's all easy to do.

After all parties were coordinated, the plan began to be prepared in full swing.

At the same time, several patrol boats of the East China Sea Fleet were still not far away, following the small liner hijacked by the prince.

……

Nine hours later, at about 8 p.m., the prince and the Pachai hijackers sailed into the disputed waters between tomorrow and Japan.

The prince looked at the charts and became more and more excited. I didn't expect this time to be in a desperate situation. Once you enter the sea area infested by Japanese ships, it will be a success. Once a Japanese ship is spotted, a distress signal is issued. These small patrol boats of the Ming army behind are helpless.

Said Cao Cao, Cao Cao arrived.

"Your Highness! Your Highness!! ”

Pachai shouted excitedly, pointing to a lighted ship in the distance in the vast night ahead. The distance of the ship is estimated to be 1,000 meters, and according to the outline of the ship illuminated by the lights on the ship, it should be a warship. It looks like a destroyer.

The prince was also excited, and his chest jumped wildly, praying that it must be a Japanese warship.

"Speed up!" He ordered, "Move towards the warship!" ”

The captain knew that once he came into contact with the Japanese warship, the prince would run away, but they would be safe. So it's very cooperative.

The warship was cruising slowly, and the small liner was still able to get up quickly at full speed.

Getting closer and closer, I finally saw it clearly, and under the light, the stern of the ship fluttered a radial bright red sun flag. It was the flag of the Japanese Navy.

On the bow of the ship, the name of the ship is painted with snow-white paint - (blowing snow)

"Japanese destroyers!! Japanese destroyer !! ”

The prince and pachai cheered wildly and wept with joy. After dozens of hours of miserable escape, several times forced into a desperate situation, until now the two of them were ragged and dizzy. It's finally coming to an end.

Where is the Japanese destroyer in front of you, this is clearly my father!

Suddenly, the Japanese destroyer quickly turned around, picked up speed, and quickly approached itself with a white wave in the bow. At the same time, the signal lights on the bridge flashed and flashed.

Something even more terrible happened -

"Knock Knock Knock ............"

The destroyer's machine guns roared, and the fire flickered. Suddenly, a few dozen meters in front of the small liner, a row column rose one after another.

This should be a warning shot.

Sure enough, on the small liner, all the girls were so frightened that they lay on the deck, and the captain was also lying on his stomach, trembling to touch the signal lights on the ship.

Pachai's face turned pale with fright, and the prince grabbed the captain and asked sharply:

"What's going on? What do they say? ”

The captain stood up with the help of the boat, glanced at the other party's signal, and said in a trembling voice:

"They said, 'You have entered the territorial waters of the Japanese Empire,' and ordered you to turn around and return immediately, or else you will be sunk......"

The prince slapped him on the head and scolded:

"Then what are you still doing in a daze, return the signal! Say I'm Prince Ananta of Siam! Request for refuge in Japan! ”

The captain didn't need to say much, and immediately slapped the signal light and went back as the prince said.

After a while, a signal light came on the destroyer:

"Since His Royal Highness the Prince of Siam, we welcome you to board the ship."
