Chapter 1129 Even Da Bao Gets Anxious Sometimes
Da Bao's face immediately turned ugly, and he waved his hand.
"Detain everyone and interrogate them one by one, demanding the most detailed confessions."
He then pointed to Wang Enming and Xia Tianming.
"The two of them have done a good job, so they should be kept in solitary confinement. As for the others, no matter what methods are used, I want to see their most detailed statements in two hours."
Chen Huaiwen and Li Juan solemnly agreed, and quickly led their men to take Zhang Guangwen and the others away.
Da Bao sat anxiously in the jeep, which was speeding along. His heart was pounding in his chest. He remembered what this incident had been about. It had almost caused a war between the two countries and ultimately led to a complete breakdown in our relationship with the Russians.
The Russian oil tanker, named Tops, weighs 1.32 tons and is equipped with some of the most advanced equipment in the world. It was carrying 1100 tons of kerosene for illuminating purposes and was on its way to Minzhou Port to replenish supplies.
The very next day, just after it left Minzhou Port, it was hijacked by more than fifty fully armed agents hidden inside the oil tanker. The oil tanker was originally supposed to be hijacked to Jilong Port.
However, there were 47 crew members on board who refused to operate the tanker. The agents beat and verbally abused them, and this delay allowed the new nation's navy to catch up with them.
Thirty-two small vessels surrounded the Topps. The Topps initially didn't want to stop, but dozens of shells hit the tanker's front, forcing it to halt.
But at this point, the agents began killing all 47 crew members and detonated the entire tanker, causing two ships to catch fire and sink.
In June of this year, Russia used this as an excuse to unilaterally break the contract, withdraw its experts, and demand that the new country repay the $86 billion debt. For the next five years, the entire nation tightened its belts to repay the debt, and relations between the two countries completely broke down.
Of course, the Tops was just an excuse; given Da Bao's status in his previous life, he wasn't qualified to know the real reasons.
But no matter what, this oil tanker must be saved, and Jin Hai and his companion must also be saved.
The jeep sped into the military district guesthouse like the wind. As soon as the vehicle came to a stop, Da Bao jumped out. The guesthouse director was already there to greet him. Da Bao walked quickly to his office and turned to him, saying something.
"Notify your supervisor to come to my office in ten minutes."
The director agreed and turned to leave.
The two soldiers standing guard at the gate saluted Da Bao, and Da Bao nodded solemnly.
"If your leader comes, have him wait at the door, and no one is allowed to enter my office during this time."
"Yes!"
Upon receiving the report from the director, the commander and political commissar of the military sub-district rushed over from their homes. They arrived at Da Bao's office, only to be stopped by the soldiers on guard.
The commander and political commissar knew something serious must have happened, so they waited anxiously outside the door. Twenty minutes later, Da Bao finally came out of the office.
He nodded to the commander and political commissar, and the three of them walked down the corridor. Da Bao said in a low voice.
"In five minutes, the provincial military command will issue an order. The public security and customs will cooperate with you to search every ship. You must find the spy and Jin Hai. The port will also be closed, and no ship is allowed to leave the port. You must act quickly and not let the enemy get desperate."
I have an important task at hand and cannot give direct command, so the two of you will be in charge on-site. Please ensure there are no mistakes.
The two leaders said "yes" in a low voice.
Da Bao went downstairs, drove his Jeep, and sped out of the military district guesthouse like a whirlwind...
At this moment, all the cargo ship's documents have been seized at customs, and customs operations have come to a standstill. However, the customs officers in charge dare not leave their posts.
There are still hundreds of cargo ships in the port, waiting to enter or leave. If the customs office doesn't work for three days, chaos will surely ensue.
Yu Tiexiong paced anxiously back and forth in the customs dispatch room. He had already reported what had happened at customs to the General Administration of Customs and was now waiting for orders from the General Administration.
At that moment, the dispatcher started running and shouted loudly.
"Commander Yu, the Torps requests to leave port,"
Yu Tiexiong was taken aback. As the customs chief in charge of scheduling, he knew every ship in the port. The Torpus had just entered the port this morning. The report stated that it was going to replenish supplies before heading to Shanghai.
However, it was impossible to replenish supplies in one day, and his reporting materials had already been sealed. Without the work group's order, no ship was allowed to leave port.
Yu Tiexiong said to the dispatcher.
"Ignore them for now. How can a ship leave port at night? I'll report to the task force tomorrow. If there's no problem with the ship, then let them leave their posts."
The dispatcher agreed and turned to leave. Yu Tiexiong was puzzled as to why the Torps was in such a hurry to leave.
When Da Bao arrived at a secluded spot, he and his jeep entered the space. He then released the White Egret Leopard, which flapped its wings and flew high, reaching the airspace above the port in less than five minutes.
Minzhou Port truly deserves its reputation as the top of the four major ports. Its wharves are deep and cover more than 100 acres of land like a fan, with a seawall that stretches for 12 kilometers.
It was already past 11 p.m., and from a distance, each ship was dotted with starlight, which was quite a sight. However, finding the Torps among these ships was not an easy task.
However, this wasn't difficult for Da Bao. His task wasn't just to find the Torps, but also to rescue Jin Hai and the other man.
Da Bao ordered the white egret to fly low, his consciousness covering the hundred-meter-wide sea surface, searching inch by inch, ship by ship.
Awang and Acai's ships were both 3,000-ton cargo ships, which was quite remarkable for that era. Instead of returning to their own ships, the two of them secretly boarded the Topps, keeping Jin Hai and the others at bay.
The first mate of the Torps had already been bribed, so their boarding process went very smoothly. As soon as they received customs permission, the ship would leave port immediately and reach Keelung Port as quickly as possible, at which point their mission would be successfully completed.
There are now thirty-five enemy soldiers hiding in the tanker's cargo hold, plus the dozen or so men Awang brought with him, making a total of fifty.
However, Awang and Acai were still worried about their boat. After settling everyone in at the Topps, they disembarked. A sea breeze blew, and the effects of their alcohol kicked in. The two men exchanged a glance, their eyes narrowed, and they grinned lewdly.
At this point, the alcohol was just right, so there was no need to go back to the ship. He could go ashore and find a couple of prostitutes to have some fun, and then go to Zhang Guangwen tomorrow morning to get the departure documents approved. These people wouldn't be so subservient now; he had leverage over Zhang Guangwen, and if he could control him, money would definitely flow in from now on...
