Seeing Yu Dafu's expression change greatly, the chopsticks in Su Zirong's hand also hung in the air.

"What's going on? Don't worry. Su Zirong asked.

"There was a message from the Reserve Cadres Department that Japan had dispatched a brigade to ambush us at the place where we were going to meet, and now although we don't know what their purpose is, the higher authorities have asked to cancel this transaction." Yu Dafu handed the telegram copy paper in his hand to Su Zirong, and Su Zirong looked at it, and it was indeed so.

He casually burned the telegram, and then he asked Yu Dafu, "Then what should we do next?" ”

Yu Dafu shook his head gently, "I didn't say it above, and I don't know." ”

"We can't go back with this shipment." Su Zirong said categorically: "If it is really an intelligence leak, it is tantamount to throwing ourselves into the net when we return with this batch of goods." Besides, I'm dead and small, but then I won't be able to get this kind of paper again. ”

Su Zirong's words were righteous, but everyone knew that he didn't think like this in his heart, but what he said made some sense, if he brought these goods back, even if there was no possibility of leaking information, there would be a certain danger.

Yu Dafu thought for a while and said, "Don't worry, Boss Su, I'll contact the people in Manila first to see if there is anything abnormal, is there something wrong with us." If it weren't for the fact that the leak was just a coincidental action by the Japanese, then we could have negotiated with the U.S. military to change the location of the transaction. ”

After that, Yu Dafu added: "If it is really a leak, we will not be able to go back to Manila." ”

Hearing him say this, Su Zirong's heart was desolate, if it was really as he said, I am afraid that he would end up in nothing, and these desperate family businesses that he wanted to keep would be burned down.

"Yes...... Mr. Duff, but my son is still in Manila. If we expose it, wouldn't his situation be very dangerous? Su Zirong was still a little worried about his son.

Yu Dafu patted him on the shoulder, "Don't worry, if that's the case, our people will arrange for him to be rescued." Okay, let's not waste any more time, let's send a message to inquire first. ”

Yu Dafu sent the telegram back to the liaison office in Manila, asking the people there to find out what was going on. Because it was a one-line contact, people in Manila didn't know about the deal.

The people from Manila went to the gendarmerie headquarters to inquire about the news, and sent people to Su Zirong's house to check on it, but they didn't find any unusual behavior. After coming back and reporting to Yu Dafu, Yu Dafu had a spectrum in his heart.

"It seems that the situation is not as bad as we thought, if it is leaked, there should be a Japanese gendarmerie in your home, or at least someone from the plainclothes team. Now there is no one, and the freedom of access naturally proves that there is no problem. Yu Dafu's words made Su Zirong feel a lot relieved, and a stone hanging in his heart fell to the ground.

"But we can't go to the original location for delivery, I don't think it's better to do this, let's trade at sea." Yu Dafu suggested again.

"Trading at sea?" Su Zirong didn't understand what he meant.

"That's right, we choose a sea area, report the location, and let the Americans drive the submarine over. And then they surfaced, and wouldn't we be able to deliver between them? ”

"This is good! This is good! Su Zirong couldn't help but give a thumbs up, "I know that there are several desert islands not far from this place, where the sea is calm and far away from the Japanese fleet, so let's go there." ”

"Don't worry, the Americans have to be willing to do this, you must know that to surface the submarine is a big risk. I'd better report this idea to what we know first, and wait for their news. After Yu Dafu finished speaking, he returned to the telegraph room and sent a telegram to the headquarters of the Reserve Cadre Division in Southeast Asia.

He provided him with all the information he had learned and what he thought, and there was a quick reply. The superiors told Yu Dafu that it had now been proved that the Japanese army had gone to the original trading site to encircle and suppress the guerrillas there, and not to contain the ships of the Sino-American trade.

was confirmed by the higher authorities, and Yu Dafu was even more relieved. However, the higher authorities told him that they still have to ask the US submarine whether they are willing to change the delivery location, which involves a matter between the two countries and the two militaries, and naturally it will not be able to solve it for a while, so the next time is only to wait.

……

While Yu Dafu and Su Zirong were floating on the sea waiting for an answer from there, Su Zirong's son Xiao Su, also known as the newly renamed Su I Yingjun, was taking a bath with the Japanese Iwasaki Toshiki in a Japanese-owned bathhouse.

Manila has a hot climate, and basically no one would open such a bathhouse, and the Americans who rule the area love to swim and surf, and no one wants to take a bath in the hot pool with a towel in their hands. However, after the Japanese occupied the area, they also brought some Japanese lifestyle with them.

In less than a year, many taverns, Japanese restaurants and bathhouses have opened in the streets of Manila. However, the majority of consumers in these stores are Japanese.

On this morning, Toshiki Iwasaki happily said to Xiao Su: "Susang, since you identify with Japanese culture so much and like Japanese things, why don't I take you to experience a Japanese bath again." ”

Xiao Su smiled, he bowed with his hands against the seams of his pants and said, "Hayi, thank you!" ”

Kosu changed his Japanese name when he was studying in Japan, but he never used it again after returning to Manila. This time, in order to get along with Toshiki Iwasaki, he bragged to him, saying that he had studied in Japan and how much he loved Japanese culture, and also took out a photo of himself wearing a kimono and the Japanese name on it.

This kind of cloud won the favor of Toshiki Iwasaki, so he also often corresponded with Xiao Su.

Toshiki Iwasaki claims to be the son of the Mitsui Group, and sometimes Kosu will call him "Mr. Mitsui", but this will correct his mistakes, and over time, he will get used to it.

The two of them lay in the hot water in the one-meter-deep bathhouse, leaning comfortably there. Xiao Su is extremely uncomfortable with the heat, this Manila is not as hot as Japan, the temperature itself is very high, and he has to soak in the bathhouse, which is really guilty.

But take another look at Iwasaki next to him, this guy put a wet towel on his head, closed his eyes and opened his arms, leaned back, completely soaked in water, and the sweat on his forehead continued to flow, which was uncomfortable no matter how he looked at it, but his appearance was not unhappy at all, and he still enjoyed it very much.

"Sussan, why did you go up? Do you feel uncomfortable? Iwasaki Toshiki opened his eyes and saw that Xiao Su had already come up from the pool in a gray manner, so he asked in surprise.

"No, no, I'm coming up to pee, and I drank too much water just now." Xiao Su explained with a smile.

Toshiki Iwasaki smiled wickedly, "Susan is really a man of temperament. Wait a minute, find a girl to relax for you, haha! ”

"No need, no need." Xiao Su waved his hand again and again, it wasn't that he was a decent gentleman, but when he came in just now, he saw several female geisha here, all of whom were crooked melons and cracked dates, which really made people uninterested.

Pretending to pee, Xiao Su went outside to breathe a few breaths of fresh air, and he took another cold shower before coming over. Over the years, this guy has been arrogant and lascivious, and his body has long been weak, so he naturally can't afford to blister in such hot water.

When he returned, he went into the pool again. Toshiki Iwasaki came over and chatted with him, and as he chatted, he talked about Xiao Su's father.

Toshiki Iwasaki said, "Susan your father was a wise man, he served the Great Japanese Empire, we will remember him, and we will not treat him badly." ”

Hearing what Toshiki Iwasaki said, Xiao Su hurriedly nodded and said, "Yes, yes, it is our honor to serve the emperor and his old man." ”

He was hesitant in his heart, should he tell this guy about the last time he saw Yu Dafu come to his house?

……

Under the influence of the bureaucracy of China and the United States, they waited for more than an hour, and it was also when it was dark, that they received a reply.

The higher authorities of the Reserve Cadres Division sent a reply saying that the US military had agreed to their request and that they would send their specific locations in half an hour, and that they would rush there to join them.

Su Zirong raised his hand and looked at his watch and said: "There is an uninhabited island not far from here, the northwest of the uninhabited island is deep enough, and the wind and waves are calm, we should be able to arrive in half an hour, so let's send the location to them first, lest we continue to wait when we arrive." ”

Yu Dafu readily agreed, and after asking the captain about the location of the uninhabited island, the two sent the location coordinates over.

So, he turned the rudder around and began to head northwest of the uninhabited reef.

At one o'clock in the morning, the American submarine arrived at the predetermined position. With the sound of breaking waves, a behemoth emerged from the bottom of the water, and the two sides greeted each other with lanterns.

Su Zirong asked the batch of three-tree paper to be loaded on three lifeboats and rowed towards the location of the US submarine. The distance was not very far, and the sailors were good at making waves, so they soon rowed to the side of the submarine to load the cargo.

There was only one import of the submarine, and it was very cumbersome to load the goods into it, so the captain of the submarine made an immediate scientific distribution, and after more than two hours, all the goods were finally loaded.

The submarine Seawolf then sank to the bottom and began to sail towards India, and Su Zirong also asked the ship to sound its whistle as a sign of respect.

Yu Dafu, who was standing on the deck, looked at the American submarine that sank to the bottom of the sea and couldn't help but sigh: "When will our country be like this, and the submarine can go wherever it wants?" ”
