Outside the front wall of the Mahler shipyard, six trucks full of soldiers rushed across and stopped after crashing into a Chinese stall near the gate. More than 100 Japanese soldiers armed with rifles and steel helmets jumped out of the car and took control of the main passage. A captain stepped forward and began slamming on the door. After half a minute of no response, the captain took a few steps back, fired a few shots at the door lock, and then struggled forward, kicked the door open, and the Japanese soldiers rushed into the shipyard with a shout.

Kagesa heard the commotion ahead, so he raised his head from behind the steel plate of the open-air bridge, and saw that the Japanese soldiers were running around the factory area, and after waiting for a while, he never heard a gunshot.

"Look, Captain Hidaka has occupied the main building, and he has not found the enemy resisting, Your Excellency, the enemy is afraid that he has already run away."

Kinoshita had already stood up straight, Kagesa was still bent over, and after waiting for a while, he saw that Japanese soldiers had appeared on various commanding heights, and he really didn't find the enemy, so he stood up straight.

"Kinoshita, immediately send someone to the navy to ask, see if there is any situation. In addition, notify all warships in Wusongkou as soon as possible, and ask them to remove all the motorboats with the word "marine police" written on their hulls. so that the enemy does not take advantage of the loopholes. ”

"Is that going to cause chaos? Moreover, most of the army's small boats were taken to Taihu Lake by Onishi, and the navy's patrol boats chased them out to the west yesterday, and there is a shortage of manpower here. ”

"Then use Wang's puppet ship to carry out the search mission, use the navy's destroyers to block Wusongkou, and every merchant ship entering and leaving, no matter which country's flag is hung, must be checked. The contents of the inspection are as follows, the name of the ship, the flag of the ship, the comparison of the portrait of the owner of the ship with our hands, and whether the cargo in the cabin is suspicious. ”

"Yes!"

"It's so deceitful, this bastard dares to hide next to our warship?"

Since he came to China to carry out various conspiracy and sabotage activities, setbacks are inevitable, but he has never felt this intellectual disadvantage, in fact, he thinks that he is much higher than the intelligence agencies in Chongqing, and has never been defeated by his opponents in terms of strategy.

Last night, he designed and reorganized Kimura, and then forcibly asked Kimura, the most powerful search expert of the special high school, to put down the shooting scene in Hongkou and go to the concession to help, which was also based on his own conceited judgment, he believed at that time that the main base of this group of people should be in the public concession, and it could not be in the Japanese-occupied area. If it weren't for this serious miscalculation, if Kimura stayed in Hongkou to investigate, he might have been able to find clues a few hours in advance, and he would have been caught all at this moment.

With the main facts revealed, he now had a strong desire for revenge.

"I don't know, what's going on with Takuno Kimura?"

Kinoshita was still worried about his subordinates.

"Don't think about it, it's over."

Lin Xiuxuan had just sailed over the water near Fuxing Island, another shipyard on Fuxing Island that Mahler had not made a move, and now that Mahler had fled, it was also in a state of suspension.

He received the drone intelligence in full on the ship, and watched the enemy rush into the Mahler shipyard in two ways, and the time was so tight that he almost stood on his feet and made people break out in a cold sweat. But the gunboat parked at the berth did not immediately chase after him, and he estimated that the commander behind the scenes might be a steady guy, not an impulsive one. Sure enough, the drone intercepted a series of orders issued by radio from the enemy's headquarters, requiring all sections of the Yangtze River to track down a bulk carrier of about 1,000 tons named Meteor, as well as another medium-sized motorboat with the words "water police" on its hull, and to carry out strict inspections on all passing ships.

Obviously, the enemy already has a preliminary idea, and of course, in view of the enemy's low communication capability, it is almost impossible to notify all the ships on the river in time, except for the larger warships, most of the enemy ships cannot have radio stations. Further reconnaissance by the drone showed that the enemy also seemed to have taken this layer of restriction into account, and they first strengthened the blockade of Wusongkou with two light cruisers and two destroyers, and did not spread their forces and collided everywhere.

In particular, it should be taken into account that the enemy on the river is equipped with wireless equipment, and there are still a lot of medium and large warships that may obtain information in time, and the Meteor has only run 2 kilometers, and its general whereabouts and identity have been exposed, but through the complete control of the opponent's communications, no description of the color and ship type of the Meteor has been found, and it seems that she has not had time to think that she may change its name.

Lin knew very well that even if he could rely on a French flag to get through the customs at this time, it was not advisable to leave Wusongkou during the day, as others would witness his whereabouts after entering the Yangtze River. He must remain hidden at all times, leaving his enemies uncertain about his destination. If someone sees him crossing Changxing Island and going to sea, it is easy to narrow down the scope and infer that the ship will either go north or go south to Hangzhou Bay.

In any case, Hangzhou Bay is still calm for now, and he must leave time rich for the restart of the nuclear submarine and some follow-up matters (such as the destruction of the Meteor and machinery and equipment).

"Team leader, drone reconnaissance found that there is a Japanese medium-sized shore defense ship in front, which is coming from the mouth of the Yunzaobang River, and we have to think of a way."

The commissar on No. 419 sent new news that he had discovered a larger enemy warship, and it had come out of Yunzaohama, so he ran into it.

"Roger. Let Xu Chong use the highest speed to turn into the reed pond near Gaoqiao, so as not to let the enemy see it. ”

The Meteor itself didn't have time to rub in, Lin looked around, there were more ships nearby at the moment, and there was no way to change his identity immediately.

Xu Chong's motorboat accelerated very quickly, and quickly grabbed the mouth of the Yunzaobang River and turned into the reed pond on the side. The Meteor could only slow down, wait for a slow Japanese merchant ship to pass by, and slowly move away.

Seeing that the cargo ship was far away from 1 kilometer, he used the hand to inform Lu Qingshan that he would immediately raise the French flag on the bare flagpole, and at the same time, the rest of the team members tore off the camouflage on both sides of the ship at the same time, revealing the new name of the ship, and the name position of the rear of the hull was lower, and two people had to be put down at the same time with a rope ladder to tear off the outer layer of paper at one time, he hoped that there was still time.

The enemy warship in front had already turned out of the mouth of the Mozaohama River 800 meters away, and was approaching at a speed of 18 knots, and it seemed that it was about to approach.

"In the forest, there was an accident in the back, the piece of paper on one side was not torn clean, and there was an R that did not come out."

"Don't tear it up, let people come up quickly, clean up the back, don't huddle together," he turned to Chu Aiyun, "Think of a way, don't let them see the stern clearly." ”

"Leave it to me."

When Pestle Aiyun spoke, the oncoming Zhanshou-class cruiser had already arrived, and he could see the Japanese captain in the wheelhouse, looking over here with a telescope, as if he was checking the name of the ship. At such a close distance, I don't know if this grandson will see any flaws.

Chu Aiyun turned slightly and tried to hide the stern of the boat, but unless he made a very suspicious 180° U-turn on the river, his ass could not be hidden, and he could only try to hide it when the two boats were staggered and the distance was closer, and then he could only hope that the Japanese did not remember the spelling of the Thermidori.

Seeing that the cruiser named Ishigaki suddenly drove away, and no Japanese sailors noticed that the spelling behind the ship was different from the bow of the ship, and it seemed that luck was on the side of 419 again.

Lin looked at his watch, it was only 5 o'clock, and it was dark late this month, and he had to wait until at least 8 o'clock for the visibility to be reduced to the point where he could move.

The simple meteorological reconnaissance of the UAV, coupled with the meteorological statistics of the same season stored in the 419 computer in the next few decades, can be preliminarily determined that there is a high probability that there will be no fog tonight; However, today is the first day of August, and according to the lunar calendar, June 21. Judging from the moon phase, it is the last quarter of the Emei moon, which is very close to the dim night sky on the day that 419 crosses. That is to say, at midnight, the moon is in the east, whether there are clouds or not, it is inadvertently bright, which is more beneficial for 419 to rely on night vision devices to get out.

He immediately received a communication from Xu Chong that there were no suspicious ships in the high-bridge three-fork port, and the Meteor immediately turned around and hid in. It seems that there are reed ponds on both sides, and there is only a narrow entrance, but the actual waterway is very deep, and after continuing to drive inside for a while, there is an open water area where boats can be parked, if it weren't for Adams, a profiteer, telling him that it would not be easy to find such a place with drone reconnaissance alone.

"It looks like the water level is a lot lower than the last time, at least a meter."

Chu Aiyun was the first to notice the change.

"Well, the last time I came, it was close to the astronomical tide, and the water level was much lower today, making it easier to hide the mast. I hope that all kinds of enemy ships do not know about this place. Lin said.

"But we have to prepare for the worst, once the enemy rushes in, I think it's better to run aground there." Chu Aiyun pointed to the eastern reed pond.

Lin raised the binoculars and looked over there, and the place he chose was good.

"It works. Don't drop anchor, the speed of the main engine is reduced to the minimum, the noise must be reduced, but do not stop, once before dark, the enemy kills, run aground there, and all go ashore and evacuate in the direction of Lingang...... Let's hope that doesn't happen. ”

The boat quietly stopped in this reed pond very close to Wusongkou, waiting for it to get dark. It can be seen that the ships defending Wusongkou have increased a lot, and the enemy is not a fool, of course, he can guess the only way for the Meteor to escape, but in this section of the Huangpu River, many river forks can be used for ships of more than 1,000 tons, and a large number of their ships are chasing Ma Qiang.

In the last hour, at least one destroyer and four gunboats have been included in the ranks of the Wusongkou garrison, and a large number of motorboats with Wang puppet flags have been surrounded. Even if a Japanese ship passes by, it must be boarded for inspection, and each inspection lasts at least 30 minutes, which shows the meticulousness of the search. Obviously, the Japanese are determined to hold on to their pockets.

Lin and Chu Aiyun were patient and began to study the map. The narrowest part of the horn at Wusongkou is only 1.2 kilometers, and the enemy's ships of all types are precisely the focus of defending this section, if at night, they turn on the searchlights together, they can still effectively block the river, and the noise and slow speed of the diesel engine of the Meteor are serious problems.

Of course, the enemy still has only two light cruisers patrolling back and forth on the Yangtze River outside Wusongkou, and once they pass through Wusongkou silently and reach the open water, these two cruisers will be easy to deal with, and they can completely avoid it by carefully taking advantage of the complex terrain near Chongming.
