There was only a phone number and time on the note. Xu Huanshan, who read the note, understood that Tang Cheng had refused to meet him. Fortunately, Tang Cheng left his phone number and contact time, otherwise, Tang Cheng would have completely cut off contact with him. The sparrows and others did not know the contents of the note, nor did they know the existence of Tangcheng. They just knew that Xu Huanshan was planning to meet with an insider today. As for whether the insider is male or female, fat or thin, they don't know.
Tang Cheng, who was originally planning to enter the hotel and meet Xu Huanshan, suddenly changed his decision when he was about to reach the door of the hotel. Tang Cheng suddenly thought that Zhongtong's action today ended in failure. According to Zhongtong's work style, they would never give up. Tang Cheng, who was walking on the street, looked towards the street entrance ahead with the help of the bodies of passers-by in front of him. I happened to see a few plainclothes agents appear at the intersection, and judging from their appearance, they seemed to have locked onto this street.
Tang Cheng, who was alert, immediately turned around and left, instead of entering the nearby hotel. However, Tang Cheng did not just leave. Instead, he wrote a note and asked the newsboy on the street to deliver the note to the hotel in exchange for two banknotes. Xu Huanshan, who had already received the note, neglected one thing at this time. How did Tang Cheng know which room he lived in! After watching the newsboy enter the hotel, Tang Cheng turned around and left, but he did not go far.
As Tang Cheng expected, the few plainclothes agents who appeared at the street entrance had already entered the street and entered and exited the shops on the street from time to time, obviously looking for clues. Seeing that they were getting closer to the hotel where Xu Huanshan was staying, Tang Cheng's expression became more and more cold. He looked around, then secretly took out a bunch of firecrackers from his equipment bag and threw them on the street. Firecrackers crackled on the street, instantly attracting the attention of the plainclothes agents on the street, but Tang Cheng retreated into the street at this time.
Pretending to be panicked, Tang Cheng stood on the side of the street and passed by the running plainclothes agent. He immediately sped up and moved towards the hotel. It was the same newsboy just now. After he got the two bills handed over by Tang Cheng, he immediately ran into the hotel. Xu Huanshan and others in the hotel room faintly heard the movement outside. Just when they looked confused and confused, the door of the room was knocked again. "Is your surname Xu? Someone asked me to tell you that the goods have been put on the ship and you are asked to go to the dock immediately."
The newsboy just repeated what Tang Cheng said, but when Xu Huanshan heard the word "pier", his expression immediately became serious. The word dock, in the code word agreed between Tang Cheng and Xu Huanshan, only means one meaning, and that is danger. Xu Huanshan, who was already alert, thanked the newsboy calmly, closed the door and turned around, but asked Ma Miao and the others to leave the hotel immediately. "There may be a problem. Leave here immediately. You go first. Let's go to contact point three to meet up."
Xu Huanshan didn't let Ma Qiao and the others pack their luggage. Anyway, it was just a few rattan boxes and some clothes, so it wouldn't be a pity to leave them here. Xu Huanshan's prompt decision bought them precious time. Only five or six minutes after they left the hotel, the street was blocked by a large number of plainclothes agents. Tang Cheng, who had issued the warning, had been quietly following Xu Huanshan. Seeing Xu Huanshan escape from danger, Tang Cheng turned around and left.
Not long after Tang Cheng returned to the military camp, he received a call from Deputy Commander Huang. The other party specifically talked about the embarrassing things about Zhongtong on the phone. "Brother, you are not in the city today, but I heard that Zhongtong is in great disgrace this time!" Deputy Commander Huang on the other end of the phone smiled happily on the phone. "They were tricked twice in a row today. I heard that the person they were chasing just used two strings of firecrackers to make them dizzy. Now it's spread throughout the city!"
He thought that those two strings of firecrackers were thrown by him, but Tang Cheng, who answered the phone, pretended not to know and asked more questions, allowing Deputy Captain Huang on the other end of the phone to complain about Zhongtong. After all, Deputy Captain Huang was a local in Chongqing and had a good grasp of the city's news. He even knew the hotel where Xu Huanshan stayed. "I heard that the Central Government was originally planning to catch a big fish belonging to the underground party this time, but unexpectedly, they missed the target one after another, and in the end they only found a few boxes and some clothes!"
Deputy Captain Huang, who spoke enthusiastically, did not know at this moment that Tang Cheng on the other end of the phone was secretly saying that he was lucky. If Xu Huanshan and the others had left a little later, they might have been blocked in the hotel by those plainclothes officers of the Central Government. After talking about the Central Unification matter, Deputy Commander Huang on the other end of the phone changed the subject and mentioned to Tang Cheng the matter of organizing armed personnel. "I have a brother in Neijiang. When the Sichuan army marched northward, my brother stayed in his hometown because he was sick and recuperating."
"At this point in the war, there is no need for our Sichuan Army to continue to increase its troops. This brother of mine has a security group with almost the size of a battalion. I just thought that I might as well ask him to take people to Burma and stay there. In a place like Neijiang, his security team will be disbanded sooner or later. People like them can only dance with guns and sticks. If they are disbanded and go home, there is no guarantee that they will not become a local scourge. Now it is a troublesome thing. His people, Only half of them had weapons, the others used swords and spears."
After hearing Deputy Commander Huang say this on the phone, Tang Cheng finally understood that this guy was asking for weapons and equipment. Tang Cheng, who was secretly happy in his heart, couldn't hold it back and laughed out loud on the phone, "Old Huang, what do you want me to say about you? Co-author, you didn't remember anything about what I told you last time. Stay!" Tang Cheng's words confused Deputy Captain Huang on the other end of the phone, but he had already forgotten what Tang Cheng had told him last time.
"As I told you last time, as long as people go to northern Myanmar, there are plenty of weapons and equipment! The British did not like the Japanese equipment and weapons captured by the expeditionary force at all. Our troops are also equipped with American equipment. I heard He said that all the Japanese equipment captured by the expeditionary force are now piled in warehouses waiting to go moldy. Not to mention that you only have one battalion of manpower, I can equip you with all the weapons and equipment of a standard A-type regiment!"
What Tang Cheng is saying now is really not bragging. The first time Zhang Jianghe arrived in Myanmar, he received a large number of Japanese weapons and equipment captured from the expeditionary force. The expeditionary force and the British looked down upon these weapons and equipment, but the domestic army did not, especially heavy weapons such as artillery and light and heavy machine guns. But apart from these, Zhang Jianghe still had a large number of bolt-action rifles and bullets in his hands, and he didn't know where to use them.
Tangcheng's armed infiltration plan just gave Zhang Jianghe the idea of dealing with these bolt-action rifles and bullets. Therefore, the battalion manpower mentioned by Deputy Commander Huang was not a problem at all. Tang Cheng's words gave Deputy Commander Huang more confidence. The guy changed the subject again and directly talked to Tang Cheng about the arms business on the phone. "Brother, since there are a large number of Japanese weapons in Myanmar that we don't know what to do with, why not let's get them back! Let me tell you, the Japanese rifles are still good, at least much better than the old slides made by Hanyang. "
Deputy Captain Huang's subsequent explanation made Tang Cheng on the other end of the phone suddenly realize that there were also Orions in Daqing Sichuan. Deputy Commander Huang's arms business was to sell these Japanese-style weapons captured from the Japanese army in Burma to hunters or landowners in Sichuan for use in housekeeping and nursing homes. Deputy Captain Huang said he was confident, but Tang Cheng on the other end of the phone directly rejected Deputy Leader Huang's suggestion. "Old Huang, don't forget, Myanmar will be our basic base from now on! As long as we manage Myanmar well, the income from opening any mine will be enough for you to spend several lifetimes."
"If you think about it carefully, is it better to get rid of a few broken guns, or to maintain Myanmar? Besides, you have to know that Myanmar needs a lot of manpower, and the captured Japanese weapons and equipment are for them. Reserved. Do you want to watch our people armed with machetes and sticks go to snatch the mines from the locals in Myanmar?" The explanation given by Tang Cheng made Deputy Commander Huang on the other end of the phone immediately understand, and he felt He said that he almost made the mistake of catching a small child and enlarging it.
But Tang Cheng changed the subject and mentioned the matter of Orions to Deputy Commander Huang, "Old Huang, you just said that there are Orions in Sichuan, so I was wondering if we should also recruit some Orions to go to Myanmar. There are many mines in northern Myanmar. The mines are all in the mountains, so the regular army is of no use at all, and they still have to rely on people who frequent the mountains and forests all year round." Tangcheng's idea of hunting hunters at this moment is naturally not only to maintain the mines, but also to prepare for continuing to go south in the future.
Deputy Captain Huang on the other end of the phone did not know about this. He just thought that Tang Cheng was really considering the mines in northern Myanmar, so he immediately agreed. After hanging up the phone, Tang Cheng, who was not in a good mood at first, felt much more relaxed. Just as he was about to get up and leave the office, he immediately received another call from Xu Huanshan. The other party seemed to be really in a hurry and had made an appointment with Tang Cheng to meet tonight. Tang Cheng did not refuse Xu Huanshan's request to meet tonight, nor did he wonder why Xu Huanshan insisted on seeing him.
Time seemed to pass very quickly. Tang Cheng, who was in the military camp, had just brokered a few deals, and the sky was already getting dark. Seeing that the time was almost up, Tang Cheng excused himself to go home and left the military camp alone. After leaving the military camp, Tang Cheng first went to a courtyard in the city. After quickly completing his disguise, he quietly walked out of the backyard and headed east along the alley behind. Tang Cheng did not agree on a meeting time with Xu Huanshan, but Tang Cheng knew that Xu Huanshan would definitely wait at the place he provided until he waited for him.
