Chapter 1404 Going to Liaodong
Since Liu Shang has been in this special business for many years, it shows that he is not a timid person, but when facing the signboard of the Haihan Security Department, he is always unavoidable to be frightened.
He would have such a reaction, mainly because the intelligence agency of Ming Dynasty had been restrained in every way during the years of fighting with the Haihan Security Department, and had hardly made any outstanding achievements.So much so that the factory guards and military secret agents in charge of intelligence work feared the Haihan Security Department like a tiger, and they were afraid of avoiding it. This kind of atmosphere also seriously affected his mentality.Coupled with what he saw and heard after coming to Haihan, he had a personal experience of the gap in strength between the intelligence agencies of the two countries, and this kind of fear hidden deep in his heart became even more serious.
It wasn't until Gong Shiqi left that Liu Shang gradually got a glimpse of the name. During his stay in Zhoushan, Zhejiang Province on the way north, he had heard of the big move made by the Ministry of Security in Hangzhou, and the leader who led the operation seemed to be It's called this weird name.This person is said to be a member of the Ministry of Security, and his status is no lower than that of Zhang Qianzhi, who he has been in contact with before. Unexpectedly, he would appear here, and he came here specifically to ask himself a statement.
Liu Shang didn't expect that Gong Shiqi had only taken such an errand temporarily. He thought that since Gong Shiqi was running errands to verify the information, the influence of Ma Bo's incident must have been quite large. This will wait for future investigations for clues.Liu Shang slowly recalled the content of the conversation with Gong Shiqi just now, and after confirming that he had not made a mistake, he felt a little relieved.
Now that the Ministry of Security has intervened, what Ma Bo committed should not be just a crime of corruption.Liu Shang was not worried that Ma Bo, who was arrested, would bite him on charges of taking bribes. Although he took the money, he did not touch a single cent, and he did not really agree to any request from Ma Bo for the money.Even the fact that Ma Bo asked him to leave Majiazhuang was completely covered up because he encountered an errand assigned to him by Zeng Xiaowen by accident.
Of course, Liu Shang can now basically confirm that the errand given to him by Zeng Xiaowen is actually for the purpose of protection, so that he can temporarily leave the right and wrong place.It's just that whether this measure was meant by Zeng Xiaowen or his boss, Liu Shang still doesn't know.Judging from this measure, at least the military did not have any doubts about itself.
As for the investigation by the Ministry of Security, Liu Shang didn't dare to think too much about it. Apart from being cautious in his words and deeds, he has no better way to deal with it now.Fortunately, judging from the content of Gong Shiqi's questioning, the Ministry of Security did not seem to have any obvious malice towards him, nor did it intend to restrict his freedom of movement. It seemed that the report letter had not been linked to him.
"I can't write such things as report letters in the future!" Liu Shang secretly warned himself in his heart.This time, fortunately, he did a good job of covering it up beforehand, so that the military and the Ministry of Security did not suspect him, but he was still very scared when he thought about it.Once he was caught, it would be difficult for him to have a reasonable explanation as to why he was able to see through the true identities of those Jinyiwei spies.
However, he will go on a business trip to Liaodong soon, and he will not be involved in the Majiazhuang case anymore. Thinking of this episode, Liu Shang can't wait to leave immediately, and he doesn't want to stay in Zhifu Island for a moment.
Of course, he is not the only one who is going to be sent to Liaodong by the Shandong garrison this time, so he can't go as he pleases.In addition to the civil and military officials like Liu Shang and Qin Wei who used to replace them, there is also a company of the army going to Lushun to make up for the garrison.In addition, the medical and health team led by Morgan will also rush to Liaodong. They will bring a large amount of medicinal materials purchased recently, and treat local patients who were originally in short supply, so as to minimize the number of patients who need to be sent back to Shandong for treatment.
Although Morgan doesn't know much about Chinese medicine, and his use of Chinese medicinal materials is far behind that of doctors in this time and space, his understanding of infectious diseases is beyond the reach of his peers.His main task in Liaodong was not to treat patients, but to try to control the infection channels and try to prevent the spread of the local epidemic.As for the operation in this area, he is currently the only professional among the high-ranking Haihan officials in Shandong, and everyone has to listen to his arrangements.
Fortunately, the main force of the navy has gone south to Zhejiang for the winter, and will basically not be affected by the epidemic.However, Wang Tom and Sun Changmi were missing because of this. The high-level manpower on the Shandong side did seem a little tight under such an emergency situation, and some daily management work also stagnated due to the epidemic.
Just at this juncture, there was another incident in Majiazhuang, but the headquarters was happy to see the success of the clean-up operation under the command of Chen Yixin. After digging out these Daming spies hiding in the dark, there is no need to worry Someone took advantage of the opportunity to make trouble during the most chaotic time in the Shandong occupied area, which must be a good thing for local security.It's just that both the military and the Ministry of Security have to allocate part of their energy to deal with this espionage case.
However, the headquarters' arrangement for Liu Shang's transfer was really a temporary measure. If he hadn't been sent back to Zhifu Island, the headquarters probably wouldn't have specifically recruited him back from Majiazhuang.For Liu Shang's current situation, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages, and it can just save him from the quagmire of the espionage case.By the time he returned from his business trip to Liaodong, the case would probably have already been closed.
But Liu Shang didn't know how lucky he was to take advantage of all kinds of coincidences to avoid dangers and avoid crises again and again.From the day he realized that his own strength could not have too much negative impact on Haihan Country, all his actions were based on the principle of seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages, but the effect was indeed beyond his cognition.His good fortune has continued from Hainan Island to Shandong, and it doesn't look like it's about to stop.
One morning in January 1636, four sailing ships slowly left Zhifu Port and headed north towards Liaodong.At this time, the sky was falling with goose feather heavy snow, even the fishermen who rely on the sea to eat, would not go out to sea against the wind and snow in this season, but this fleet sailed out of the port without hesitation, and soon disappeared in the wind and snow among.
In such bad weather, Liu Shang is of course not in the mood to go to the deck to watch the sea view and relax, so he can only huddle in the cabin and watch the charcoal stove to warm up like everyone else.Although he was wrapped in a standard military overcoat issued by the logistics department, Liu Shang still felt that his body was not too warm. The sea breeze blowing in from the ventilated porthole felt like a knife on his skin, which was really hard to resist.
"People who just came from the south can't stand the weather here."
Seeing Liu Shang curled up in a ball, Tan Wei smiled kindly and said, "If you are really cold, there is a sheepskin jacket on the boat, so wrap yourself up too!"
Liu Shang shook his head and said: "No need, wrap it again and wrap it into a ball. In fact, as long as it's not windy, it's still quite warm when it's on the fire."
That's true, but there is a charcoal stove in the cabin. If the doors and windows are closed tightly, it is not a fire, but suicide by burning charcoal.Everyone knows this truth, so no matter how cold it is, you have to open a porthole for ventilation.Although Liu Shang was not sitting on the air vent, the whirring sound of the air passing through the porthole already made him shiver.
Qin Wei said: "I heard that the chief's cabin has a sandwich wall, which is directly connected to the kitchen stove. It can keep warm without a stove, but it doesn't need to open windows for ventilation like we live in this cabin."
Liu Shangying said: "You also said that it is the place where the chief lives, so how can it be compared. I don't know how the living conditions are in Liaodong. Do you have to light a stove in the house to keep warm?"
"Liaodong is a new land, and the conditions in all aspects are naturally not comparable to Zhifu Island." Tan Wei said calmly while flicking the unburned coals in the charcoal stove with tongs: "After the battle there It’s only been less than two months now, supplies are scarce, and the resident population is small, so it’s probably good to be able to live in a house with walls and a roof. As for heating, don’t hold out too much hope.”
The Battle of Lushunkou was only completed in November last year. The troops staying there were mainly the special operations battalion under Qian Tiandun's command, with a small number of civilians and logistics personnel, plus about 100 troops stationed in Lushun Port. navy.Haihan's military and civilian population stationed at Lvshunkou for the winter is only a little over [-] people, and it is difficult to complete large-scale infrastructure projects in winter.
In addition, there is an extremely unfavorable condition, that is, the special warfare battalion with the vast majority of southerners is not very adapted to the climate of Liaodong. Even if they spent the winter in Shandong the previous year, it is still difficult to carry Liaodong climate.This directly led to the emergence of influenza in the army after the deep winter, and then some people's illnesses turned into pneumonia, and they had to be sent back to Shandong for treatment and recuperation.
Even though Haihan had prepared a large amount of cold-proof quilts, food, and medicines to dispel cold and dampness before entering Liaodong, and even some spirits that the army could not enjoy at ordinary times, it was indeed not so easy to overcome the laws of nature. .And according to the feelings of the Han immigrants in Liaodong, the temperature after winter this year is obviously lower than in previous years, and the snowfall is more frequent.Therefore, although the Haihan military has done a lot of preparatory work, it was finally tossed hard by this unpredictable climate.
Liu Shang took out a small flat glass bottle from his arms, unscrewed the cap of the tin bottle, and brought it to his mouth to take a sip.This is liquor specially distributed by the logistics department, with a quota of two taels per person per day. Although it is not much, it is quite useful to warm up the body when you are afraid of the cold.Although Liu Shang is not a drinker, besides warming himself up by the fire in the current environment on the boat, he can only take a sip of spirits from time to time to warm himself up.
Liu Shang took a sip and handed it to Tan Wei, but Tan Wei declined his kindness with a smile.Liu Shang didn't care too much, and put the cap on the wine bottle and put it in his arms. This thing has a limited quota, and if you give it to others to drink more, you can only drink one less. If the other party doesn't drink, you can save it for yourself to enjoy.
"Isn't the sorghum wine from the north stronger than the sugarcane wine from the south?" Although Tan Wei didn't drink alcohol, he was no stranger to the wine that Liu Shang brought out.The liquor distributed by the logistics department is all sorghum liquor purchased locally in Shandong Province.
Liu Shang nodded and said: "Sanya Special Brew, it's okay for the next person to drink half a catty, but this sorghum wine, if you drink it in a hurry, you have to lie down in two or three. I heard the chief said before, In extremely cold places, it is most convenient to use spirits to keep warm, but you should not drink too much, because once you pass out outside, you will freeze to death in a short time."
Tan Wei nodded and said, "It's a pity that not everyone can listen to this kind of warning. This winter, several drinkers in Liaodong have froze to death. Brother Liu, it's okay to drink, don't get drunk."
Liu Shang said solemnly: "Thank you, brother Tan, for reminding me."
While he was talking, the hatch that was half-hidden was pushed open from the outside, and when Liu Shang saw the person coming, he immediately stood up and said, "Boss!"
The person who came was Morgan, who was the commander of the operation this time. He nodded to Liu Shang and Tan Wei and said, "I'm here to discuss with you about the work arrangements after arriving in Liaodong."
Both Tan Wei and Liu Shang were temporarily recruited into this team, and they did not receive specific work arrangements before departure. Judging by Morgan's posture, they planned to seize the time on the way to assign tasks.The two dared not neglect, and quickly pricked up their ears to listen to Morgan's instructions.
In fact, Morgan's arrangements are also very simple, basically following the military's propaganda approach, but the theme has changed from preparing for the spring offensive to controlling the epidemic in line with the current actual situation.Morgan asked them to think of propaganda methods as soon as possible to keep the mood of the local garrison stable, and not create an atmosphere of panic and anxiety because of the epidemic.
Both Tan Wei and Liu Shang are not newbies, and Morgan only needs to know a little bit, and it didn't take too long to arrange the work.After finishing his business a few times, Morgan actually took out a small flagon from his arms, but it was a stainless steel flagon brought from another time and space, and the workmanship was much finer than the glass flagon on Liu Shang. too much.
After Morgan took a sip, he clicked his tongue and said, "I have been here for more than eight years, and this is really the coldest winter. To be honest, I regret applying to the executive committee for this errand to the north. it's too cold!"
Liu Shang and Tan Wei looked at each other, but they didn't dare to answer Morgan's words. He was free to discuss the arrangements of the executive committee, but ordinary officials like Liu Shang and the others didn't have the guts to do so.
Morgan didn't take it seriously, and continued: "The soldiers from the south are still less adaptable when they go to the north to fight. We need to wait until the spring of next year to recruit more soldiers from Liaodong, otherwise we won't be able to fight in Liaodong in the future."
Liu Shangying said: "The chief is right. After I came to Shandong, I saw that the soldiers from the north are generally tall and strong, and they are more suitable for the climate here than the southern soldiers. If there is a unit composed of northern soldiers in the army, it will be able to bear the burden. Stationed in Liaodong Daren."
