Noon, one o'clock.
Qiaokou Warehouse.
Pan Caide held a cigarette in his mouth and leaned against the car, raising his wrist from time to time to check the time.
He was sent by Jin Zhuxuan.
Specially mobilized fleet.
All procedures are complete.
The name used is "Materials Distribution Center".
Don't underestimate this unit with a very simple name.
It was a unit with great power during the entire Anti-Japanese War.
Responsible for the deployment of most strategic materials!
Once, the military commander discovered a Japanese special suspect within his own department. After Dai Li learned about it, he ordered to step up surveillance and not act rashly without his order.
And he immediately asked the leader for instructions. Only with the leader's personal intervention could the joint military police and other departments act together.
The person in charge of the material distribution center has changed three times in two years.
The charges are all the same:
Get involved in smuggling!
It's ridiculous to say the least.
A dignified official responsible for the allocation of national strategic materials was actually personally involved in smuggling!
The smuggling trend continues to be banned and is getting worse!
From government officials and theater commanders, to brigade commanders and field county magistrates, to company commanders and platoon commanders, everyone is showing off their magic and smuggling desperately!
It has become a common phenomenon for various armies and war zones to harbor smuggling and trafficking of Japanese goods.
In the northwest, the national army protected traitorous businessmen and purchased furs in Yulin and other places and smuggled them to the Japanese army, taking a commission from them.
The Hubei National Army set up checkpoints on both sides of the Yangtze River. The name of inspection is actually plucking hair from smuggled goods: grain smuggled from south to north into occupied areas costs 3 to 5 yuan per load, and cotton costs 20 to 30 yuan per load. Yuan, tung oil is 50 yuan per barrel; Japanese goods smuggled from the occupied areas to the Kuomintang-controlled areas from north to south are smuggled, soap is 15 yuan per box, and cigarettes are 5 yuan per carton.
However, there are also some officers who feel that it is too slow to earn money just by plucking geese, so they simply end the operation themselves.
For example, Liu Xiangfu, a division commander of the National Army stationed in Fujian, smuggled 100 tons of grain to the Japanese and puppet troops every day, and he also provided free shipping. He sent soldiers to escort the grain to enemy-occupied areas, and requisitioned civilian ships by force when encountering waterways, and even the freight was charged. Save it, no one dares to come up to check along the way. After the grain is sold, the Japanese goods are loaded back for dumping, double smuggling, and never returned empty.
There is also wood and copper that Japan urgently needs!
Up to 700 tons of copper are smuggled out of the Guangxi border every month, which is equivalent to sending the enemy the copper materials needed to build a cruiser every month.
As for the wood, it's even more of a joke.
As officials from all walks of life engaged in timber smuggling and got involved with each other, the standards for the Japanese army to purchase timber increased.
The acquisition agency of the Japanese Navy first required that the acquisition standards be raised to a wood diameter of no less than 6 inches, and then required that the wood must be straight, and any slightly curved ones would not be accepted.
However, even under such harsh acquisition conditions, the enthusiasm of the officials to smuggle timber is still high.
The Japanese army saw that there was still too much wood, so they simply cut it across the board and raised the acquisition standard to a diameter of more than 8 inches.
As a supplier of supporting materials, the officers used their huge shipment volume and strict quality control to greatly promote the improvement of the production quality of Japanese military transport ships and the reduction of process difficulty.
Is this a joke or a national tragedy?
Pan Caide is from Jinzhuxuan.
Therefore, although the person in charge of the material distribution center has changed three times, his position remains intact.
As for what to do with the replaced person in charge?
It's nothing more than loud thunder and small raindrops, and the board is raised high and falls gently.
Pan Caide has seen this kind of thing a lot.
Just follow the right people.
"Chief Pan, it's all done."
Section member Xiao Mo came over to report.
"Okay, let's go, let's go!"
Pan Caide threw away the cigarette in his hand: "Drive slowly on the road, be careful!"
…
Ma Chao threw away the cigarette in his hand and lay lazily on the ground.
Have been waiting here for almost two hours.
He's not in a hurry.
He is young so he has plenty of time.
"coming!"
A message came from the surveillance post ahead.
"Prepare."
Huang Zhong was giving orders there.
Ma Chao still yawned lazily.
The motorcade appeared in sight.
Huang Zhong raised his hand.
Ma Chao still had his eyes half closed, as if what happened had nothing to do with him.
The convoy is getting closer and closer.
When the lead car reached the ambush position, Huang Zhong's hand fell down.
"boom"!
The landmines laid in advance made a shocking roar!
"Boom, boom, boom"!
Several landmines exploded at the same time!
The first car and the last car were immediately paralyzed, and the entire convoy was blocked in the narrow mountain road.
"Tu tu tu tu"!
At the moment when the explosion sounded, Ma Chao, who had looked listless just now, suddenly turned over as if on a spring, raised his submachine gun, and fired a shot at the bottom!
"beat"!
In his roar, the light and heavy machine guns fired at the same time!
Powerful in Xiliang, Jinyi Ma Chao!
Not only that, there was also an agent who picked up a loudspeaker and shouted at the convoy:
"We are the horse king of Tianping Mountain. I want goods at the expense of my life. I throw the car away and promise not to kill him!"
…
"Throw the car away and promise not to kill!"
Pan Caide was so frightened that he hid behind the car and did not dare to move.
The Horse King of Tianping Mountain?
Never heard of it.
This is an encounter with bandits.
"Chief Pan, what should I do? What should I do?"
Xiao Mo was also frightened.
How does Pan Caide know what to do?
According to his character, he has long wanted to run away.
But he didn't dare.
If this batch of goods is lost, Jin Zhuxuan will have his own head!
The convoy does not carry many weapons, and they are all self-defense light weapons.
But why are those bandits so powerful?
…
"Gendarme? I have an emergency report. Near Tianping Mountain, a group of bandits are attacking the convoy. Yes, the information is true, absolutely true! The bandits are extremely powerful! Who am I? I am just a just citizen!"
Lao Bacon hung up the phone.
"I am just a righteous citizen."
Quietly, this sentence is so classic!
…
"Yeah?"
Gendarmerie Commander Zhang Zhen asked.
"Yes, I just received the call."
"Send the nearest platoon to take a bus and check it out."
"clear!"
Zhang Zhen sighed inwardly.
Meng Shaoyuan, I tried my best to help you.
But you are risking your life with those people with your head on your back!
…
"about there."
"Yeah?"
Ma Chao, who was getting excited about the fight, was reluctant to leave: "Retreat, retreat immediately!"
…
The gunfire that had been intensive just now suddenly stopped.
what happened?
Pan Caide still held his head and did not dare to get up.
"Chief Pan, it seems those bandits are all gone."
After all, Xiao Mo is more courageous.
"Really? Are you sure?"
Pan Caide shivered and boldly looked outside.
It seems like he left?
Oh my god, I finally saved my life.
Before they could recover, two more trucks roared towards them.
As soon as it stopped, large numbers of armed men jumped out of the truck.
"Oh my God, here we go again!" Pan Caide screamed and got under the car again!
