Hulutao

If the scheme is carried out, the Chinese will have two trunk lines running in a generally north-south direction to the east and to the west of the north-south South Manchuria Railway, cutting the Chinese Eastern at two or more points, thereby tapping the wealth of both the Russian and Japanese spheres in Manchuria, and diverting traffic from Vladivostok and Dairen to the port of Hulutao on the Gulf of Liaotung opposite Yingkow. A contract for the development of this port was let to a Dutch company in 1930, the payments to be made from the income of the Peking-Mukden lines.

At Hulutao, cautious Admiral Barbey again refused to go ashore because a launch from his flagship was fired upon by several riflemen, supposedly Chinese communists. Then the flotilla repaired to Yingkow, where the Soviets had promised a "guarantee of safety" between October 31 and November 10.

General Malinovsky had again informed General Hsiung that he did not have authority to allow a landing at Dairen. But he had gone on to say that the Soviet government would not oppose landings at other ports of Manchuria—Hulutao, Yingkow and Antung; that in fact the Soviet government was even willing to provide some vehicles needed to move the Chinese troops from these ports. Rather than prolong the delay in starting his troops to Manchuria, the Generalissimo gave up the idea of landing at Dairen. He asked the American navy to take them to Hulutao instead, and the navy agreed to do so.

The commander of the Soviet forces in Manchuria proposed three other Manchurian ports: Artung^([sic – meaning Antung]), Yingkow, and Hulutao. Chiang decided to try Hulutao, but the Chinese Communists refused to allow his soldiers to land there, and the Russians said that they could not "guarantee" a safe debarkation.

The clearing of the corridor was to be effected by a convergence of strike forces from the Mukden and Chinchow garrisons with the help of troops from Taiwan landed at the port of Hulutao.[…] The reinforcement of nine divisions sent from Taiwan, which had landed at the port of Hulutao, was blocked from reaching the Chinchow battle area and reembarked.
