Chapter 143: Beauty is Light (II)
The special train of the secret search class was speeding across the plain, and the three groups of people in the car were in different carriages.
Maeda Masaji and ten Mikawas soldiers sat in the last compartment of the special train, close to the last armored train, controlling the most powerful firepower of the special train.
Tang Qianlin, Li Yunfan, Ye Da, An Ran, and Tang Yushi took the second carriage, next to the conference room carriage, while seven Germans, including Victor and Berghardt, sat in the carriage next to the front of the car.
Maeda sat at the window, closing his eyes and recalling the words that Kyoji Miyake had told him.
This was the first real cooperation with the Germans, and there was no room for error, and it required the sharing of operations and intelligence, and even concessions, provided that the safety of the seven Germans was guaranteed.
Maeda Masaji wondered: "They are all professional soldiers, and they themselves proposed to participate in this operation, their strength is far above the Mikawas, but let me take the Mikawas team to protect them?" ”
Kyoji Miyake said, "This is for the future of Japan and an opportunity for us to show our sincerity. ”
Maeda Masaji thought for a moment and finally voiced his concerns: "What if, I say, these Germans have other ways to go out of the ordinary?" ”
Kyoji Miyake said lightly: "No, they are measured." ”
Maeda Masaji did not relent: "What if? ”
Kyoji Miyake's tone became cold: "You just have to carry out the order." ”
Recalling this, Maeda Masaji opened his eyes and looked at the soldiers of the Mikawa team sleeping on the improvised military bed next to him.
Although the Mikawas were considered the elite of the elite within the Kwantung Army, they were limited in number, and their equipment was only superior to that of ordinary ordinary soldiers, and they were only stronger than their enemies here.
The Southern Type 14 pistol, the Type 38 rifle, the Type 97 sniper rifle, and the MP26 Bergman submachine gun were the best weapons and equipment they could get their hands on.
Look at the Germans, Luger pistols, Mauser automatic pistols, Mauser rifles, Mauser sniper rifles, MP38 submachine guns, and even an MG34 light machine gun.
These Germans came prepared, otherwise they would not have been armed to the teeth.
If there really was an accident, plus myself, a total of eight people, how to deal with those six elite German paratroopers?
At this time, Maeda Masaji thought of Tang Qianlin, he got up suddenly, but immediately sat down.
Maeda Masaji knew very well in his heart that if it was really judged according to the criteria of good and bad, Tang Qianlin and the others were good people, but they could be divided according to the camp, they were just their own enemies.
The Germans seem to be allies, but they are also enemies who may stab themselves at any time behind their backs, but Tang Qianlin and others seem to be enemies, but they may be people who will help themselves at critical moments.
It's too contradictory, it's too ridiculous, even if I know this truth, I can't do anything about it.
In the middle carriage, Tang Qianlin and the others were studying how to start a war after arriving at Mohe.
Li Yunfan pointed to the map: "This is the map of Mohe I found before leaving, we must first be familiar with the surrounding environment, in case of accidents, we will not run around like headless flies." ”
Ye Dadao: "I used to go to Mohe to find medicinal materials, and I was quite familiar with it, and I stayed there for several months. From the Mohe River to the south is the Great Xing'an Mountains, if the Snow Sealed Mountains are in the Great Xing'an Mountains, then we still have a long way to go after reaching the Mohe. ”
An Ran asked: "How long does it take to go from Mohe to Daxinganling?" ”
Ye Da shook his head and said: "Even if you ride a car and a horse, it will take at least three to five days to go deep into the Great Xing'an Mountains, and now in this season, some areas at the foot of the mountain have been civilized, and it is basically a foot of mud and a foot of snow." ”
Tang Yushi was lying next to him, although he closed his eyes and pretended to be asleep, he was actually listening carefully.
Tang Qianlin closed the map, but said, "There is a place I don't understand very well now. ”
Li Yunfan asked, "What do you not understand?" ”
Tang Qianlin said: "Why is Xiao Tianjun in the car?" ”
Ye Da asked, "What do you mean?" ”
Tang Qianlin said: "We all know that Oda Jun is a backup candidate selected for the purpose of studying Kyoji Miyake's plan of Pranya, is he in the car, does it mean that Kyoji Miyake's plan is completed?" ”
Everyone was silent, and they all wondered if that was the case, then the danger of this operation had increased again.
Tang Qianlin said: "Also, when Miyake Kyoji took hostages, when I proposed to keep Enron and Yushi, Miyake did not object, it stands to reason that the more hostages, the better, especially when it rains are very important to their plans, why didn't he stay, why did he let me take Yushi?" ”
Li Yunfan said: "You mean, Kyoji Miyake has other arrangements?" ”
Tang Qianlin shook his head: "I don't know, before there is full evidence, I can only rely on guessing, in short, we have to work hard." ”
Tang Qianlin didn't know that at this moment, in the dark room of the last armored car, Oda Jun was doing a basic physical examination for Nissen.
Neeson sat in the cramped space, staring straight ahead, like a soulless shell.
Oda Jun touched Neeson's chest with his hand, and raised his other hand to look at his watch, counting his heartbeat.
Neeson's gaze lifted and asked, "Why?" ”
Oda-kun turned a deaf ear and just looked at his watch.
Neeson asked, "Why did you let me live?" I deserve to die. ”
Xiao Tianjun took his hand away: "Because you, like me, don't have the right to choose." ”
With that, Oda sat back in the cramped seat.
Neeson asked, "So, what am I now?" ”
Oda Jun said, "What do you think?" ”
"I don't know." Neeson shook his head slightly, "I don't know what I am, I can feel that I have two bodies, one is the outer one and the other is the inner one." ”
Xiao Tianjun said: "The biggest difference between you and the past is that one has a heart and the other has no heart. ”
After speaking, Oda Jun closed his eyes and stopped talking.
Neeson looked at Oda-kun, savoring his words.
After speeding on the tracks for nearly a day, the train finally approached Mohe, but unexpectedly received an urgent notice from Mohe Station, informing that a section of track near Mohe had been damaged and that it would take at least three hours to fully recover, so the train had to stop and wait for the tracks to be repaired.
When Masaji Maeda received the news from the station, he immediately brought a map of the military railway and looked at it carefully.
After discovering that the train had stopped, Oda Jun realized that something was wrong, and also left the dark room, walked to the carriage where Maeda Masaji was, and asked, "Why did it stop?" ”
Maeda said: "The railroad tracks were damaged and it took three hours to repair, so we had to pause here and wait for the rails to be repaired. ”
Oda-kun looked out through the car window, and there was a dense jungle on both sides.
Maeda Masaji saw Oda-kun's concern: "Don't worry, our firepower is very strong, even if there is an enemy attack, the other side will not be able to cause us any damage without heavy weapons." ”
Oda didn't say anything, turned and left.
After Maeda Masaji watched Oda-kun leave, he ordered the soldiers to be vigilant, increase vigilance, and go straight to the next train to find Tang Qianlin.
After informing Tang Qianlin of the situation, Tang Qianlin also looked out of the car window like Xiao Tianjun, and asked at the same time: "How far is it from here to the place where the railroad tracks were destroyed?" ”
Maeda Masaji said: "Less than five kilometers. ”
Tang Qianlin pointed outside: "Within the first five kilometers, everything is the same as here?" ”
Maeda Masaji shook his head: "No, about two kilometers ahead is a plain, and there are no barriers on both sides, I understand what you mean, I originally wanted the train to continue to the plain area." ”
Tang Qianlin said: "I guess it's not that simple, your people can't be patrolling the railway anytime and anywhere, the damaged railroad tracks are deliberately discovered by your patrol team, the other party has calculated the time, just enough for us to stop in this section, they will also think that we feel that it is dangerous to have barriers on both sides, so we will let the train continue to move forward for a while, if nothing else, the rails in front are also destroyed." ”
Maeda Masaji frowned: "You mean, someone will attack us at night?" ”
Tang Qianlin said: "One hundred percent, moreover, the people who attacked us are very clear about our route, it should be that someone within you has leaked the news." ”
Tang Qianlin did not make it clear, there is no doubt that the people who attacked this batch must be puppeteers, and this place is already very close to Mohe, so it is undoubtedly Kartu, that is, the Yan clan.
Maeda said, "I'm going to call in for support and have them inspect the railway lines in this area. ”
Tang Qianlin said: "If you do this, they will achieve their goal." ”
Maeda Masaji wondered: "What do you mean?" ”
Tang Qianlin finally looked at Masaac Maeda: "Delay time, whether it is a series of murders in Harbin or the destruction of the railway tracks, someone is delaying our time to go to Mohe, so that we can go to Xuefengling one step ahead of us." ”
Maeda Masaji said: "So, if we are in a hurry, we can only change the way?" ”
Tang Qianlin shook his head: "No one knows what traps they have laid, instead of going out to adventure, it is better to sit here and wait." ”
Maeda Masaji said no more, turned around and returned to the carriage, and asked the soldiers to immediately send a telegram in the direction of Mohe, telling the garrison there to send a patrol to inspect the railway line.
The patrol soon set out from the direction of Mohe and began to inspect along the railroad tracks in the direction of the special train with the strength of a squadron. Soon, they discovered that several sections of railroad tracks, about two kilometers in front of the train, had been vandalized.
At the same time, it was approaching evening and it was getting dark.
Tang Qianlin beckoned everyone to lower their posture: "If there is an attack, now is the best time, there is enough light to shoot, everyone stay away from the window and lie down." ”
Li Yunfan asked: "It must be the puppet Manchurians who attacked us?" ”
Tang Qianlin said: "It should be Kartu, our goal is too big, so if we want to rush time, we must leave this train and disappear from the sight of this group of Japanese." ”
Ye Da said in a low voice: "You mean, run away at night?" ”
Tang Qianlin said: "Yes, after we leave, we will go to the periphery of Mohe first, Yun Fan and I will find a way to sneak into Mohe County, go to find Bei Zihong's seniors, and go to the pawnshop to find Ye Yunong, both of which will find the whereabouts of the Yan clan as quickly as possible, and then rush to Xuefengling." ”
An Ran asked beside him: "Qianlin, what I'm worried about now is if the Shaman Spirit Palace is not in the Snow Sealing Ridge?" ”
Tang Qianlin was not surprised that An Ran asked, because this was also his concern: "Whether we are there or not, we must see is believing, otherwise it will be too late." ”
