North Jiangsu, Jurong.
"Congratulations, Commander. Someone wants to see you."
"who?"
"He's from Shanghai."
"Let him in."
Not long after, a man in his fifties, wearing a long gown, walked in, took off his hat and bowed respectfully: "My surname is Jiang, from Shanghai. I am the housekeeper of the boss Cheng Lan Xingcheng of the Fairy Company. "
"Shanghai? Fairy Company? Cheng Lanxing?"
Zhu Yanni had never heard this name before: "Are you looking for me?"
Butler Jiang has also been in the arena for a long time: "You are the famous Commander Zhu, right?"
"it's me."
"Then I found the right person."
Steward Jiang said respectfully: "My company is oppressed by the Japanese and has no choice but to cooperate with the Japanese in transporting supplies to northern Jiangsu. Unfortunately, my boss, Boss Cheng, is still patriotic at heart. Director Meng Shaoyuan of Shanghai knows this."
After saying this, the three people in the room, Zhu Yanni, Kong Chuanbo, and Guo Yongbiao, suddenly realized.
After working on it for a long time, it was the person sent by Meng Shaoyuan.
Butler Jiang continued: "We were ordered to deliver supplies to the Japanese troops stationed in northern Jiangsu. We have special passes for transportation, which is the most convenient. This time when we came to northern Jiangsu, we specially brought a batch of supplies to Commander Zhu."
After that, take out a list:
"Two boxes of medicine, five boxes of 2,500 boxes of matches, five boxes of toothpaste, 1,000 sticks, 50 boxes of mosquito repellent incense, 25,000 boxes..."
Zhu Yanni and others were overjoyed after hearing this.
Matches, toothpaste, and mosquito coils are all daily necessities. They sound far less valuable than guns, ammunition, and medicines. However, the guerrillas active behind enemy lines in enemy-occupied areas are extremely short of these supplies. This time it is like providing help in times of need.
Especially mosquito coils.
The mosquitoes in the countryside of northern Jiangsu are so big that one bite can cause a big mess, which is unspeakably painful.
Now that we have this batch of mosquito-repellent incense, it will come in handy.
Guo Yongbiao knew he was with the right person.
What was your life like when you were ordered to independently organize guerrillas in northern Jiangsu?
There was a serious shortage of guns and weapons, with only a few hundred rounds of ammunition left.
Medicines are a no-brainer.
If you are injured or sick, you can only use some earthwork.
There is also the salary of the soldiers. The worried Guo Yongbiao worries about money every day when he opens his eyes.
But what can be done?
The guerrillas were dispensable in the eyes of those government officials.
Especially in terms of supplies, the guerrilla armed forces cannot even drink the remaining water.
Since Zhu Yanni arrived, the situation has changed rapidly.
To be honest, Guo Yongbiao was quite resistant at first.
He thinks this is to take away his power.
Guo Yongbiao was from the regular army, and Zhu Yanni was a spy. How could he, a regular soldier, listen to a spy?
But when Zhu Yanni arrived, without saying a word, she asked someone to bring 20,000 in cash: "Commander Guo, please pay the brothers quickly."
Twenty thousand!
Guo Yongbiao had less than two thousand yuan left in his account.
The detective fees, adaptation fees, resettlement fees, and disability subsidies of the security chiefs in each township will all be paid.
What worries Guo Yongbi these days is that he can't sleep well all night.
Now, 20,000 yuan fell from the sky.
Guo Yongbiao was excited, but he couldn't show it too much on his face: "Wish..."
What should it be called?
Even though she was the detachment leader, she was also called the commander.
Commanders are flying everywhere now.
But he, Guo Yongbiao, was the deputy commander of the guerrilla advance column of the Twelfth Army appointed by the serious National Government.
"Xiao Zhu." Zhu Yanni helped him resolve the problem.
"Xiao Zhu, Xiao Zhu." Guo Yongbiao glanced at the money: "You just came, everyone is conducting guerrilla operations behind enemy lines, how can I have the nerve to accept your money?"
"Commander Guo, you're welcome." Zhu Yanni had already known what the other party would say: "This is what our Meng Shaoyuan Director Meng said. Director Meng also asked me to bring you a few words, and I will convey them word for word. for you……"
Meng Shaoyuan said this: "Commander Guo, don't be polite to me. You are a regular army officer and I am a spy, but our purpose is the same. I want to bribe you for my use, and there is nothing to hide. You can insist Your regular army is proud, but now you have guns and money, how can you fight guerrillas? I have all the things you lack, how about we work together? Don’t say who leads whom, I can’t lead you, just one sentence , take my money, take my weapons, let’s work together and fight the Japanese at the risk of our lives!”
After Guo Yongbiao had been an officer for so many years, this was the first time he heard someone talk like this.
The word "bribe" came out directly.
"Take my money, take my weapons, let's work together and fight the Japanese to the death!"
This sentence touched Guo Yongbi the most.
Everyone's purpose is the same.
Guo Yongbiao began to have a good impression of Meng Shaoyuan, whom he had never met before.
The cooperation between the "Swallow" detachment commanded by Zhu Yanni and the guerrilla advance column of the 12th Army also officially began.
Then, Guo Yongbiao quickly realized the benefits of cooperating with Meng Shaoyuan.
Money, supplies, medicine, whatever is needed is available.
Only when the main force of the Yanzi detachment arrived did Guo Yongbiao and his men know what it meant to be wealthy.
Zhu Yanni's detachment had the smallest number of the detachments commanded by Meng Shaoyuan, with only about a hundred people.
But she can't afford to be a wealthy person.
Not to mention weapons, one detachment has three radios.
This radio station is a great thing.
Guo Yongbiao commanded three battalions, 1,400 men, and so many armed forces from various townships and villages. He only got an old radio station after begging his grandfather and grandma, and it often broke down.
Let’s take a look at other people’s?
Before Guo Yongbiao could finish admiring him, Zhu Yanni changed hands and gave Guo Yongbiao a radio station: "Commander Guo, you command three battalions, right?"
"Yes what's the matter?"
"I will immediately send a message to Director Meng and ask him to give us a few more radio stations. We will strive to have one radio station in each battalion."
Guo Yongbiao was stunned.
One radio station per battalion?
You're not dreaming, are you?
If that were the case, it would be much easier to contact them.
Who is this Meng Shaoyuan, so wealthy?
Zhu Yanni didn’t boast at all.
When Meng Shaoyuan appointed Kong Chuanbo as the liaison officer, he was originally given only one radio station, but upon hearing Zhu Yanni's request, he immediately allocated several more radio stations for him to take to northern Jiangsu.
As soon as Kong Chuanbo arrived in Jurong, good guys, radio stations, medicines, money...
What don't you want?
Guo Yongbiao was really convinced.
When had he ever been so wealthy?
Is this like turning over and becoming a landlord?
"Thank you, thank you so much." Guo Yongbiao was sincerely grateful: "Director Meng is so generous, so generous. Director Meng of this radio station probably has a warehouse, right?"
"Commander Guo, let me tell you something from my heart." Kong Chuanbo said in a low voice: "We, Director Meng, are rich and have a lot of things, but the radio station is a precious commodity, even if Director Meng wants to get it, he can't get it. easy."
"But this..." Guo Yongbiao was confused.
"Didn't this make Commander Guo catch up?" Kong Chuanbo looked around and said, "We wish that the relationship between Commander Meng and Director Meng is extraordinary..."
Guo Yongbiao suddenly realized that this was the case.
"So, if you need anything in the future, just tell Commander Zhu. If others can't get it, Commander Zhu can get it with just a telegram." Kong Chuanbo slightly emphasized his tone:
"Think about it, Director Meng has sent all his most trusted people here. How much does he respect you?"
From then on, Guo Yongbiao didn't worry about anything anymore.
If you are armed behind enemy lines and there is a rich man behind you, what do you have to worry about?
Just throw your arms away and do it.
Once you identify someone, you won’t regret it.
After that, Guo Yongbiao was still the deputy commander of his guerrilla column, Zhu Yanni was still the commander of the Yanzi detachment, and Kong Chuanbo was still the liaison officer.
But they simply merged the offices together. Externally, they still have their own numbers, but internally they are called the "Northern Jiangsu Guerrilla Brigade." Everyone discusses and handles everything they encounter. The two offices are considered to be one.
Meng Shaoyuan spent the capital and received three battalions composed of regular troops. This improvement in strength was not just a slight improvement. When all the weapons and equipment were in place, the Northern Jiangsu Guerrilla Brigade instantly became the most powerful force under Meng Shaoyuan.
These regular soldiers in the guerrilla brigade are veterans who fought bloody battles with the Japanese army in Nanjing.
Not to mention, there are also the powerful civilian armed forces in the surrounding villages and towns as auxiliary forces.
The situation in northern Jiangsu is gradually opening up.
From then on, Guo Yongbiao was grateful to Meng Shaoyuan.
That time Zhu Yanni was ordered to reinforce Xuzhou, and Guo Yongbiao specially selected the most elite armed forces to follow him.
This can be regarded as repaying Meng Shaoyuan.
…
A batch of supplies had just been delivered some time ago, and in the blink of an eye, daily necessities arrived again.
This can't help but make Guo Yongbiao sigh with emotion, how easy it is for someone in the court to do things.
Unexpectedly, after reporting the delivered supplies, Butler Jiang said: "In addition, Boss Meng also asked me to bring five sets of spring cheongsam customized by 'Lek Fook House', five sets of American dresses, five pairs of leather shoes, and perfume. …”
Zhu Yanni's face suddenly turned red.
What is Master Meng doing? How embarrassing.
Just give supplies. What are you doing with these things?
But it's really sweet in my heart.
Guo Yongbiao and Kong Chuanbo looked at each other and smiled.
Zhu Yanni was about to speak when she suddenly stood up, covered her mouth and ran out in a hurry.
Butler Jiang was startled: "What did I say wrong?"
"It's okay, it's none of your business."
Kong Chuanbo said: "We wish the Commander good health recently."
Steward Jiang rolled his eyes: "Let me ask you boldly, has Commander Zhu been like this lately?"
"Yeah, sometimes I have to vomit as soon as I eat, several times a day."
"You have to be careful then."
Butler Jiang smiled and said, "You have to find a doctor for Commander Zhu as soon as possible. Let me take a look. I'm afraid Commander Zhu is pregnant."
"pregnant?"
"She's just pregnant."
"Nonsense, Commander Zhu..." Guo Yongbiao said, suddenly remembering something: "By the way, Xiao Zhu went there in person last time to assist Xuzhou, so it took about the same amount of time."
"Yes, yes, that was at the end of March. Director Meng was also in Xuzhou, so the time was just right."
Kong Chuanbo also suddenly understood, he jumped up and down and shouted loudly:
"Immediately generate electricity for Shanghai and say that Northern Jiangsu is a great victory!"
