Chapter 118 Take the cargo to Changsha by ship

On Wednesday, May 17, early in the morning, Li Junhao boarded the gunboat "Kuiwen" of the Yangtze River Fleet of the US Navy in China with two bodyguards, Jackie and Nick, and set off for Changsha.

The Kuiwen is a shallow water gunboat with a full load displacement of 1,150 tons, 55 meters long, 9 meters wide, and a draft of 3.5 meters, equipped with a twin 130mm naval gun on the front and rear decks, as well as two 450mm torpedo launchers, two mine launchers, and four twin 12.7mm high-level dual-purpose heavy machine guns. The ship is a new ship in 1936, which was originally dismantled and transported to Shanghai, and reassembled by the Jiangnan Shipyard under the guidance of the ship's engineer, and is also one of the first-class capital ships of the Yangtze River Fleet. (This ship is fictitious, and the data can be referenced.) )

As an assistant military attache and naval lieutenant, Li Junhao was warmly welcomed by the officers and men on board, and the captain of the ship, Captain Dick Reis, even gave him his cabin, and Jackie and Nick were also placed in the cabin of the gunner. Li Junhao is not the kind of guy who can't be a person, and immediately took out the gift he brought after getting on the boat - the current relatively high-end camel brand special alcohol cigarettes, and the shot is a whole box (150 pieces).

Although the US military units have a quota of cigarettes when they are stationed abroad, this kind of special alcohol cigarette is only supplied to officers and officers at the colonel level, and now it can be used by all officers and men of the ship, and it is naturally very popular.

Li Junhao is a person who is engaged in marketing training, and he is the best at dealing with ordinary amateurs, and when he takes off his straight white navy uniform, and wears the same blue one-piece sailor uniform as the officers and soldiers on the ship, takes the initiative to talk and help, no one can refuse his affinity!

Under the astonished gaze of Jackie and Nick, it took their boss less than two hours to mingle with the officers and sailors of the Navy, and they were greeted by smiling faces wherever they went. The most amazing thing is that the two of them and all the officers and men of the ship have discovered that His Excellency Pan Sen has an excellent memory, and just after introducing it, he remembered everyone's names, military ranks, positions, and hometowns.

In other words, Major Panson was not familiar with the command of the ship, otherwise, the captain of the ship, Captain Reis, admitted with a smile that it was only a matter of minutes before he was replaced!

The first day of the voyage was spent in this happy atmosphere, and Li Junhao did not commit any seasickness in his previous life.

The next day's voyage was not so good! On the Yangtze River waterway in China, Li Junhao saw American warships, British warships, Italian warships, and of course more Japanese warships, no matter which country's warships appeared, Chinese ships had to hurriedly dodge, and the most arrogant Japanese warships would intercept Chinese ships at any time, whether it was the Republic of China or cargo ships, they would be forcibly inspected, abused, beaten, and even killed, he saw them all!

And this situation has long been commonplace in the eyes of American sailors, and there is not a trace of abnormality in their expressions. The anger in Li Junhao's heart was constantly accumulating, and he even forgot the purpose of this trip, and kept thinking about how to take revenge on the Japanese ships? He thought about storing the gunboat under his feet into the system mall, but he couldn't operate it successfully because there were people on the ship, which made him angry and impatient!

On the afternoon of the third day (19th), the Kuiwen sailed into the Changsha wharf, Li Junhao disembarked with two bodyguards, but the gunboat continued westward after replenishing fresh water......

The two cars waiting at the dock picked up Li Junhao and others and drove all the way to a warehouse area on the outskirts of the city.

Previously, Li Junhao only knew from the documents that starting on November 12, 1938, because of the improper orders of the Kuomintang government, before the Japanese army attacked Changsha, the Kuomintang government troops took the initiative to set fire, resulting in the fire in Changsha for five days, burning ninety percent of the houses, 30,000 people were burned to death, and hundreds of thousands of people were homeless, but when they really saw these ruins, the anger in their hearts still couldn't be suppressed!

How harmful is a corrupt regime? He had seen it with his own eyes, and although it was only a corner of the place, it was enough to make him hate it!

If it weren't for the existence of a symbolic figure in China's War of Resistance at this time, he would have wanted to return to Yucheng and directly assassinate Jiang who brought disaster to the country and the people!

-----------------

The two cars stopped in front of what was apparently a newly built mud-brick warehouse, and the officers and men of the Changsha station, who were in charge of receiving him, were all present, and he was not in the mood to deal with them at this time.

Li Junhao briefly inspected more than a dozen large warehouses, and told the other party that he was tired from sitting on the boat for three days and needed to rest, so he would start counting the materials from tomorrow afternoon, and only need to leave a small number of people to accompany him, so he sent most of the people away.

At this time, there are still two days before the handover time of the materials of the two sides, and the military command thinks that the goods in Huhai are on the way, and they are not in a hurry, because of the geographical convenience, their goods have all arrived, and the rest is waiting, anyway, it is barter trade, and they have not received the goods from the other party, and they will not let the goods be pulled away, which is basically impossible to go wrong! Therefore, for Li Junhao and the three of them, the personnel sent by the Seventh Department of the Military Command and the local personnel of Changsha Station did not have the slightest worry.

That night, Li Junhao stayed in the newly built Wangcheng Hotel, and asked Jackie and Nick to go to rest, and after taking a pleasant hot shower, they also turned off the lights to rest, but in fact, the body entered the three tiled rooms in the carry-on space - when you go out, safety is more important than anything else!

That night, he slept very deeply, and he didn't pay attention to the outside world at all, but in fact, there were really two waves of people who sneaked into his room, the first wave was from the military commander Changsha Station, and the second wave was from the Japanese army's Central China dispatch military secret service, but the two waves not only did not find any clues, but even found that the target person was not in the room! The two waves of people thought that the other party had an ambush, and they were directly frightened away, and they didn't even dare to make the next move!

-----------------

On Saturday, May 20, Li Junhao did not show up until almost noon, and after having a hearty lunch with two bodyguards, he drove to the warehouse area to officially start the inspection......

In this regard, the personnel of the Seventh Department (Manager's Office) of the Military Command and the personnel of the Changsha Station were very cooperative, and they could see anything and inspect it in any way.

The appointment continued the next morning, Li Junhao refused the banquet, and the three were sent back to the Wangcheng Hotel by vehicle.

After this day's investigation, Li Junhao has determined how to exchange goods safely. After accurate calculation and simulation, the time for the exchange can be completed in half an hour, and this is what he wants!
