Traveling through 1937, I came to fight against the Kwantung Army

Chapter 608 The First Battle (2)

Night fell over the Cheongcheon River. The cold water surged and roared in the darkness, making a low roar.

A figure quietly appeared on the south bank of the Cheongcheon River. He looked at his watch from time to time. The agreed time was almost up!

He stood quietly on the south bank and listened.

Not long,

Yin Xinjun just waved his hand, and like a magic trick, a rutted bridge appeared out of thin air on the Cheongcheon River!

Less than ten minutes later,

A flashlight flashed on the north bank of the Cheongcheon River, flickering on and off three times in a row.

Yin Xinjun also hurriedly responded with the same signal using a flashlight!

Ding Shan, Tang Junping and others quickly got on the rut bridge in a jeep, followed by a long team of armored regiments!

The jeep stopped on the north bank.

Tang Junping said in surprise,

"There really is a floating bridge! The commander is amazing!"

Ding Shan smiled. Of course he knew what was going on.

Yin Xinjun ordered,

"This is what the US military left behind. I have killed all the guards. After you cross the bridge, head south and hide in the forest!"

After about an hour,

The first armored regiment has completed its crossing of the river.

Yin Xinjun saw that there was no one around, so he put the rut bridge back into the space!

The latest situation on the western front is that the US 24th Division and the British 27th Brigade, including four Korean divisions, have crossed the river and are on the north bank, advancing towards the Yalu River.

After the US 10th Army on the south bank was transported to the eastern front, there were still the US 1st Cavalry Division, the US 2nd Division and an airborne regiment left, so this plan was still very likely to succeed! Of course, due to the strong mobility of the US military, the situation on the battlefield changed very quickly!

However, Yin Xinjun was confident. He even felt that he could block the enemy's retreat by himself, because he could call for air support at any time, and he had several more weapons of mass destruction in his space, so letting Ding Shan and the others come was just a cover!

Yin Xinjun followed Ding Shan and the others, slowly moving forward into the forest. His mind was still concerned about another important matter, which was Cheng Yue and the others' journey to Southeast Asia!

After the US military discovers that the Chinese People's Volunteer Army has officially joined the war, it will inevitably take blockade measures and force other countries to join it in implementing an economic and technological blockade against mainland China!

Now that the Americans have already placed two chess pieces in North Korea and Taiwan, plus Vietnam and the Philippines, China's foreign trade will soon come to a standstill.

Yin Xinjun's army went to Southeast Asia to break the blockade, take advantage of the wartime opportunity to make the United States bleed more and continuously consume the American strength. After the Korean War armistice, this chess piece of his will come into play, messing up the situation in Southeast Asia and severely teaching those running dogs who follow the United States a lesson!

If it is inconvenient for the superiors to do something, then I will do it alone, Yin Xinjun thought to himself. He is not the kind of person who will passively take a beating, he always likes to take the initiative!

The scene of that night emerged in Yin Xinjun's mind.

After listening to his overall plan for going to Southeast Asia, Director Chen was silent for a long time. He made three phone calls just to report on the matter, and the conversation lasted at least two hours!

Finally, he said this to Yin Xinjun:

"We will pretend we don't know what you did!"

Since then, strangely enough, no one cared about what Yin Xinjun did. Even Director Chen stopped allowing him to go to Beijing regularly, as if he didn’t know him!

Kalimantan Island, Haizhou,

port,

With the sound of a low whistle, a steam freighter slowly sailed towards the port. Its hull plowed through the blue sea, stirring up layers of white waves.

The freighter gradually approached, and the hull gently touched the rubber anti-collision pad on the dock, making a dull sound. The crew members skillfully threw out the rope, and the workers on the dock quickly caught it and worked together to tie the ship firmly to the shore. The gangways on both sides of the hull were slowly lowered and connected to the platform on the dock, forming a passage leading to the ship.

On the deck of the cargo ship, the crew was busy checking the cargo to ensure that it was not damaged during transportation. Although they looked tired, their eyes revealed the joy of completing the task.

Seagulls are circling and chirping in the sky above the port, adding a bit of vitality to the busy scene.

At this time, the busy loading and unloading workers were ready. They pushed carts and carried tools and rushed over.

A man walked down from the boat and said with a smile,

"We've brought some good stuff today, so we don't need so many people!"

On the pedal, a four-wheel forklift carrying a wooden box slowly drove down the freighter, followed by a pickup truck!

The forklift unloaded the cargo from the freighter very quickly.

The pickup truck also easily drove away from the port with the first batch of cargo!

However, the workers around him looked at him with jealousy!

More than two months ago, Cheng Yue and his team accidentally came to this continent, which is actually a large island.

After all, Kalimantan is the third largest island in the world, and its area is 20 times that of Taiwan Island!

Cheng Yue also came here after listening to the introduction of comrades in Guangdong. This island perfectly meets the several conditions proposed by Yin Xinjun to him!

The first is that the area must be large enough, at least not smaller than Heilongjiang Province in the Northeast, so that it can provide space for maneuvering and buffering!

The second is the current status of the colonies, which will give you plenty of room for maneuver when you become independent in the future!

The third is that it is close to our country’s sea areas, which will facilitate economic and trade exchanges with the mainland in the future!

Haizhou is only 1800 kilometers away from Hainan Island and 2200 kilometers away from Zhanjiang. It takes about a week for a cargo ship to sail there!

The fourth is that there are a large number of Chinese, which will facilitate future rule. Haizhou is a gathering place for Chinese, most of whom immigrated from Fujian, Guangdong, and Guangxi, accounting for 90%!

Cheng Yue only stayed there for two days, but he felt that this place was perfect as the base for his Nanyang business, so he rented a place here and opened a Xinyue Trading Company as a cover!

In a two-story building in the city,

The words "Haizhou City Hall" are hung on the door!

Mayor Johnson is a British man, 45 years old this year. He is the highest administrator sent here by the British Malay Governor. He proclaimed himself mayor and all commercial activities must pay taxes!

Cheng Yue sat opposite Johnson and said with a smile,

"Mr. Mayor, I want to report to you that I plan to build a new company office building using red bricks and cement! I am not used to living in this wooden house! As for this piece of land, please choose a suitable place!"

As he spoke, he handed over two more gold bars!

When he set out, Yin Xinjun gave him a whole suitcase of gold bars. When Cheng Yue arrived in Haizhou, he began to bribe Johnson lavishly. After all, if he wanted to build up his own power here, he could not do without the support of this British guy!

Looking at the shining gold bars, Johnson said with a smile,

"Mr. Cheng, of course you are welcome to contribute to Haizhou, but where did you buy the materials? We don't have any construction materials locally. Cement and steel need to be purchased from other places!"

"Mayor, I bought it from my hometown and shipped it here by ship. It just arrived at the port!"

"Land is not a problem. There are a lot of vacant lots in the west of the city. I'll get you the cheapest one later. By the way, your naturalization certificate is also ready!"

Johnson took out a stack of certificates from the desk drawer, which was equivalent to household registration certificates, a total of seventeen!

"Thank you very much, Mayor!" Cheng Yue took the certificate and left. He brought sixteen subordinates with him. With the naturalization certificates, it meant that they were legal citizens here!

Now Cheng Yue is in direct contact with Zeng Hongyu at the Zhanjiang Liaison Office. If he needs anything, he just needs to send the list to the other party!

What Cheng Yue was most dissatisfied with about Haizhou was that most of the houses here were made of wood. It was probably because it was close to the tropical rainforest, so wood was plentiful and cheap!

Yin Xinjun exchanges telegrams with him every night, and last night he asked him to take root here as soon as possible and integrate into the local society!
