Lost and Spy

Chapter 2950
"Everyone!"

Meng Shaoyuan looked stern, and he looked at Mizushima Kohei and the others: "All obstacles have been removed, and now it's time for the official shipment of gold."

Mizushima Kohei and the others immediately showed excitement on their faces.

They have been waiting for this moment for too long.

"Taniguchi-kun."

Doi Yutaro was more cautious: "Can you tell us about your plan?"

Yes, how to ship it out?

At present, the Japanese Navy has lost its command of the sea.

All ships will be attacked by the Allies.

It is almost impossible to transport that much gold.

All hope fell on Shibu Taniguchi.

"Ward Zero has been exposed."

Meng Shaoyuan said calmly: "Currently, the international public opinion is in an uproar, and the US government has launched urgent consultations with the imperial government, demanding an immediate change in the treatment of American prisoners of war.

The United States proposed measures to provide humanitarian assistance to the people in the Japanese-occupied areas, and our imperial government has also accepted this proposal. "

Japan is also forced to accept this.

With the loss of control of the sea, it has become seriously difficult for Japan to transport materials and personnel.

They urgently need to find a way.

The proposal put forward by the United States is in the hands of Japan.

On the one hand, they refused to acknowledge the existence of "ward zero", and on the other hand, they accepted the humanitarian rescue proposal put forward by the United States.

In such a situation where both sides had their own ghosts, a Japanese merchant ship, the "Awa Maru", appeared in front of everyone.

This ship was launched on March 1943, 3. It is a merchant ship in name, but it is built according to military performance and requirements. No matter in terms of scale, nature, and performance, it is a military ship in the true sense.

After completion, "Awa Maru" has a total length of 5084 feet, a total tonnage of 11429 tons, and a maximum speed of 20 knots per hour.After all four merchant ships of the same type were transformed into light aircraft carriers, it belonged to the Nippon Yusen Shipping Company, and it traveled to and from Singapore, Japan, six times to deliver supplies for the army.

During this period, it was blasted by bombs and attacked by American torpedoes, but it still completed its mission, so it was hailed by the Japanese military as an "unsinkable ship".

Japan and the United States decided to convert it into a transport ship for delivering relief supplies, and "Awa Maru" was guaranteed absolute safety during its voyage to Southeast Asia.In order to be safe, the two parties agree:

"Awa Maru" removed the anti-aircraft guns and bow guns on the bow, withdrew the soldiers, and painted a green cross on the hull for identification.

For Japan, which has exhausted its sea power, "Awa Maru" is their ace transport ship, and the Japanese government is not willing to use it just to transport rescue supplies.

On the premise of obtaining the so-called safe pass from the United States, it secretly installed 6000 tons of ammunition and other war materials before departure, which violated the agreement between the two sides from the very beginning.

Meng Shaoyuan knew exactly what was going to happen:
"The unsinkable ship, the Awamaru, will be a merchant ship jointly approved by Japan and the United States to transport supplies!"

So sure?

Kohei Mizushima was the first to ask, "Taniguchi-san, is your information accurate?"

"Yes, the information is very accurate." Meng Shaoyuan said firmly: "Soon, the two parties will formally reach an agreement, and the Awa Maru will also appear in Manila, becoming the only merchant ship that will not be attacked by the US military!"

Shibu Taniguchi wanted to use the Awa Maru to smuggle gold!

The plan sounds good, but it is too difficult to implement.

Kohei Mizushima thought for a while: "Mr. Taniguchi, what kind of excuses do you use to ship so much gold on board? It seems too difficult to carry out such a task under the eyes of everyone."

"I have already obtained the specific itinerary of the Awa Maru once the agreement is signed between Japan and the United States." Meng Shaoyuan said confidently: "The Awa Maru will pass through Hong Kong and Singapore, arrive in Manila for a few days, and then arrive in Sumatra.

After staying in Sumatra for a few days, the Awa Maru will return.And after it arrives in Manila, it's time for us to ship the gold.Ladies and gentlemen, the Awa Maru can carry [-] tons or dozens of tons of supplies in ammunition alone, which is nothing in front of it.

After we transport the gold fortune to Manila in batches, the plan of stealing dragons and turning phoenixes will officially begin! "

Mizushima Kohei and the others cheered up.

This is the whole point of the plan:

Steal the dragon and turn the phoenix!

"In Manila, there is a warehouse, Warehouse No. 4." Meng Shaoyuan said slowly: "There are a lot of tin ingots, rubber, tickets, etc. piled up there, all of which are to be transported back to Japan.

In Manila, the leader of the Yamayuri Association, Fukukaka Keizawa, will be the figure who determines the success or failure of the entire plan.We're going to dump all the gold into Warehouse 4! "

Yutaro Doi understood a little bit: "You mean to exchange the materials in the original No. 4 warehouse with gold, and then ship it to the Awa Maru in a grandiose manner?"

Seeing Meng Shaoyuan nodding his head, Yutaro Doi frowned: "This plan is feasible, but there are a few problems. First of all, it requires the full cooperation of Keizawa Fukunaka.

Then, throughout the swap process, it was decided that there should be no surprises.What kind of method can be used to convert silently? "

"I heard a story before, it's very interesting." Meng Shaoyuan said with a smile: "It is said that there was a general who was on empty pay and told the emperor that he had recruited a hundred thousand troops.

Once, the emperor had a whim and said that he wanted to review his troops. The general panicked. He had less than 1 men, what should he do?
His military adviser gave him an idea.On the day of the emperor's review, he saw groups of soldiers passing by in front of the emperor. They were mighty and majestic, and there was an endless stream. It seemed that there were more than [-] troops.

But obviously there are only less than 1 people, how can there be so many people?It's actually very simple, but after the first batch of soldiers were inspected, they would quickly detour to the end of the line and give the emperor another inspection.

In this way, let alone an army of 20, even if it is 30 or [-], it is not a problem at all. "

Kohei Mizushima and the others were at a loss.

What does this have to do with stealing dragons and turning phoenixes?
"I actually checked in the Port of Manila. As long as the vehicles entering Manila have complete documents, they will not be inspected at all. Only the vehicles leaving the Port of Manila will be strictly interrogated."

Meng Shaoyuan said with confidence: "Suppose, a truck loads 4 boxes of gold, and after we unload the goods at No. [-] warehouse, we reload the [-] boxes of materials in the warehouse and transfer them to other warehouses.

In this way, the total number of No. 4 warehouses will never change.And these warehouses are all in charge of the Yamayuri Association. Except for Fukukaka Keizawa, no one knows that No. 4 warehouse is actually full of gold. "

"Then, the most important person is this Fukukaka Keizawa!" Kohei Mizushima couldn't help but muttered.

"Yes, whether it is successful or not, this person will play a decisive role!"
