Section 1196 Collecting intelligence

"Jieyomar, are you going to smoke a cigarette?"

A Filipino worker called Zuo Chong's pseudonym, shook the cigarettes issued by the US military in his hand, and enthusiastically sent an invitation to Zuo Chong.

Jayomal is a very common name in the Philippines, equivalent to Ergouzi in the Republic of China or John Tom in the United States. It is most suitable to use it as a pseudonym, but it is easy to cause misunderstandings.

For example, the sentence Jayomall just now immediately attracted five or six Filipino workers to look up. When they were sure that they were not calling themselves, they bowed their heads and continued to eat.

Zuo Chong gestured to the caller and strode over. The other party was also a mixed Japanese and Philippine blood, so the two got along well.

When he walked up to him, he called the man's name in English and asked, "Joshua, is smoking allowed in the dock?"

"Of course...no."

The young Joshua kept it a secret and explained with a smile: "But there is a place that can be done. Come with me quickly, Americans won't care."

As he said that, he walked in front, came to a corner of the dock and bent down and went out. There was a half-person-high hole in the seemingly solid wall, and it seemed that people often came in and out of here.

Zuo Chong followed speechlessly, no wonder the other party dared to smoke in the dock full of flammable materials and oil. It turned out that the ancestors planted trees and later enjoyed the cool air.

The scene in front of me suddenly became clear from the entrance of the black and broken hole. The blue sea was close at hand, and the cool breeze blew towards me was refreshing.

What is shocking is that the core dock of Pearl Harbor dozens of meters away is the one at the core of Pearl Harbor. The steel giant beast that Zuo Chun just saw in the dock appeared in front of him without any cover.

In addition to Joshua and Zuo Chong, there is another group of Filipino workers smoking, and these people are chatting in a low voice.

"Jieyomar, this is our territory. How about it, isn't it?"

Joshua threw a cigarette to Zuo Chong and asked proudly.

"Good place, but do Americans really allow us to do that?"

Zuo Chong helped the other party light the cigarette, but he was still a little unimaginable. There was no one guarding such an important place.

“Why not allowed?”

Joshua asked in a cigarette, then carefully explained the reason for the left penis.

"If Americans don't allow us to smoke here, we will smoke secretly, and the docks will have a risk of fire at any time."

As if to prove his words, a team of soldiers passed by everyone, but the other party didn't even look at the workers and walked away along the gray road.

There were even two American sailors who walked off the warship and asked Joshua for two cigarettes, and started smoking beautifully, a moving scene of "the relationship between officers and soldiers".

Zuo Chong approached the two and listened to their discussions on life in the military, and extracted a lot of useful information from it.

For example, the Pacific Fleet divided all warships into three batches, performing different tasks or performing rest and rest.

To be specific, one group patrols at sea, one group docks and supplies to rest, and one group enters the dock for maintenance.

Sailors who dock supply ships can disembark and move nearby, but are not allowed to leave Oahu. Once ordered, they must return to the combat post within three hours.

The sailors entering the dock to repair ships are equivalent to taking vacations and can return to their homeland or leave Hawaii, and there will be no combat missions for a short period of time.

This three-batch rotation system ensures that sailors have enough rest time and can also extend the service time of ships.

The only problem is that once the port is attacked by the enemy, the entire fleet will immediately lose two-thirds of its combat effectiveness.

While Zuo Chong was remembering and thinking, a sailor told another sailor a little news, and the content was very terrifying.

"Have you heard that the defensive berthing areas seem to have found traces of German submarines?"

Defensive mooring area, a special noun for the navy.

Not all warships that are on the docking and resting are left at the dock. They will also be divided into some forces for combat readiness and are the strategic reserve team of the Pacific Fleet.

These warships do not lay their anchors or tethers, and the number of combatants on the ship reaches at least 80%. They can be pulled out to fight at any time. The area where they are located is called a defensive mooring area.

Zuo Chong ventured into Pearl Harbor on this trip, one of the tasks was to figure out the location of the tethered area and the defensive berthing area, which was the first round of attack targets of the Japanese.

"God, how could German submarines appear in the Pacific?"

Another sailor exclaimed, his eyes widened, and the cigarette butts on his hands shook and almost burned himself.

Since the war started in Europe, under the propaganda of various reports, the German army has almost become synonymous with invincibility and cruelty. Now it is normal for this person to have such a reaction when he hears about German submarines appearing in Pearl Harbor.

"Who knows, maybe the Germans want to attack Pearl Harbor."

The first sailor curled his lips and shook the ash to the ground and then expressed his opinions on some deployments of the upper level of the Pacific Fleet, with resentment in his words.

"Damn big guys think that the water depth of Pearl Harbor is too shallow and there is no need to deploy a lightning protection net. If the Germans really appear, the warships in the defensive mooring area are like fireworks. Bang~~ Do you understand?"

He made an explosive gesture, obviously opposing the arrangement, but unfortunately no one would care about the opinions of a soldier.

Zuo Chong recorded the information and prepared to guide the other party to tell the location of the defensive parking area, even if it was a bit risky to do so.

"Sir, how far is the defensive mooring area from here? Isn't it dangerous for the dock?"

As a result, before Zuo Chong could speak out, Joshua took the initiative to ask the two sailors that he came to the port to make money, not to work hard for the Americans.

If the dock is really dangerous, then he would rather go to the Honolulu port to be a porter. It would be good to make money, but he would have to spend his life.

It is related to life and death. Not only Joshua cares about this matter, but other Filipino workers also move closer to them, wanting to hear the Americans' answers.

Perhaps for the sake of cigarettes, the first sailor looked around, pointed to a row of telephone poles on the dock, and said to Joshua in a low voice.

"It's okay, as long as you don't cross that line, you're safe."

Joshua nodded quickly and stuffed the other party half of the cigarettes left. Anyway, it was stolen from the foreman, so he didn't feel sorry for him.

Zuo Chong's eyes paused on the telephone pole for a moment, took a slight sip of cigarettes, and automatically generated a map in his mind and marked it on it.

Of course he knew that the so-called German submarine was a rumor. A certain bearded wolf pack had not yet taken shape and was unable to cross the ocean to the Pacific Ocean to stir up the wind and rain.

But just rumors are rumors, just be able to find out the location of the defensive parking area.

When the sailor received the cigarette, he was so happy that he smiled. He looked around again and told Joshua another message.

"There is no special reason, don't go to Ford Island. Recently, 50 new fighter jets have arrived from the local area. All personnel entering Ford Island will be subject to ONI's review.

You know, those damn secret agents are rude, and luckily Oahu is not native, otherwise Mr. Hoover would have set up a checkpoint onto a warship, hahaha.”

Lao Dai's colleagues - Edgar Hoover, the first director of the FBI, has a worrying reputation among the American people. He is polite to say that he is notorious, and it is more accurate to stop crying at night.

This represents the American attitude towards secret intelligence agencies - resentment, fear, and scolding Hoover is the right political rule, provided that the agents do not hear it.

Zuo Chong didn't have the intention to laugh at Mr. Hoover. He received so much information at one time. Even if he was not showing his emotions, he would be happy in his heart.

The lightning protection network situation, the location of the tied ground, the location of the defensive parking area, and the number of reinforcements in Ford Island were all obtained, and this trip is not a waste!

Zuo Chong stepped on the cigarette butt, drilled into the hole with the sound of the whistle of the worker and returned to the dock, and swung the sledgehammer again. It was so hard to be a capitalist worker.

At six o'clock in the evening, my head was buzzing, and my arms were sore and left heavier with the crowd walked out of the base gate.

Americans are not philanthropists. When working, they send trucks to pick them up for efficiency. Naturally, they will disappear when they go back. Workers can only walk back to the accommodation area.

This is also a good thing. Zuo Chong found some information from other people on the way back, which further improved his understanding of Pearl Harbor.

After returning to the accommodation area, he said goodbye to Joshua and walked into an inconspicuous wooden shed.

I checked the marks in the house, put on the oil lamp on the left, took out the hand-painted Pearl Harbor map from the space and started marking it, contributing to the Japanese's grand plan.

In order to ensure the safety of his fake identity, he will live here during this period, trying to avoid going to the city of Honolulu and preventing him from meeting people who know "Nan Kaichiro".

As a businessman, it is normal for "Nan Kaichiro" to run around and disappear for a while and it will not cause suspicion. It is enough for Ozawa to come forward in the sugar trading company.

After processing the collected information, Zuo Chong went out to find a small restaurant. The guests in the familiar place greeted him and perfectly integrated into the Filipino Japanese group.

...................................................................................

"Buzz buzz ~~~"

The sound of huge propellers whizzed past the dock. The workers in the dock greeted the US pilots in various dialects. The white foremen spitted on the ground and muttered something.

Zuo Chong looked up at the roof, raised his hammer and smashed it down hard. This was the tenth day he had lurked at the Pearl Harbor base.

During these ten days, he initially understood the division of various functional areas within the base, the location of air and coast guard forces, the location of materials, ammunition, and fuel warehouses. The hand-drawn map became more and more detailed.

In addition, with the help of communication with the US sailors, he also collected the names, styles of conduct, and approximate work and rest time of many US warship commanders.

It was time to retreat, smash a red rivet into the hull, and the left heavier raised the idea of ​​leaving, and there was no point in staying here, all that was left was water grinding.

Even if the Pacific Fleet's warships are mobilized in the future, the overall situation of the base will not change. Maintaining continuous monitoring at the commanding heights of the mountaintop can complete the tasks of the Japanese military command.

If the Japanese launched a sneak attack according to the time of their previous life, there would be more than a year before he would not have time to spend it with the Japanese, Ozawakawa should have the ability to take over this matter.

There should be...?

Zuo Chong thought about it and suddenly felt a little unsure. The other party was very familiar with the US Navy. He was very well-informed in theory, but he was a short man in action. If it was exposed, it would be troublesome.

Forget it, I'd better teach Ozawa step by step for a while.

He made a decision helplessly that the Japanese should not make any mistakes in attacking Pearl Harbor. The Republic of China needs a fight between Japan and the United States, and the people of the world need the outcome of Uncle Sam.
