After a while, Tang Cheng threw the cigarette butt at his feet and crushed it with his toes. Tang Cheng finally spoke. "Forget it! Lao Xie is right, we have a lot of time to deal with it this time! Although there is a radio station that can keep in touch with Chongqing, the military commander should be eager to understand all the situations. After all, there are some Things can't be explained clearly on the radio!" Tang Cheng's words at this moment surprised Lao Xie and Huang Guangyu. Tang Cheng's attitude seemed to support Huang Guangyu!
Tang Cheng, who was laughing secretly in his heart, ignored the reaction of Lao Xie and the two, but continued, "Didn't you say that there are many low-level officers like you who were transferred back to Chongqing! If they are all like you, they don't have units yet. Accept it, the worst thing you can do is discuss it with them after you go back, and let's form a team and come here to fight against the Japanese and puppet troops! Just like what we have done these days, fight quickly and leave quickly, without giving the Japanese and puppet troops a chance to pursue."
If Tang Cheng's suggestion had been made a few minutes ago, both Lao Xie and Huang Guangyu would have considered it carefully. But now, the two of them worked together to dig a hole but failed to trap Tang Cheng. However, after looking at each other secretly, they secretly wondered about Tang Cheng's intention in making this suggestion. Seeing the doubts on the expressions of Lao Xie and Huang Guangyu, Tang Cheng immediately grinned, "I asked you two, can you stop being suspicious! I really think that if you team up to come here to find the Japanese puppets, Maybe we can get a lot of benefits out of the military's trouble."
When Tang Cheng said the word "benefits", Huang Guangyu's expression changed slightly. After all, he was the guy who wanted to get into money's eyes. Tang Cheng chuckled upon seeing this, and then pointed at the weapons being maintained by others not far away, "Look, those seized weapons and ammunition, as long as they are properly maintained, are almost like new ones. And we also seized a lot of them." Ammunition, as long as you can gather enough manpower, plus the weapons and ammunition here, it should be no problem to capture a Japanese stronghold similar to Huangzhuang."
Tangcheng was peaceful at the moment, but in fact, I was suppressing a smile in my heart, thinking that you two fools still want to trick me, let's see who is being tricked! Although Huang Guangyu was not stupid, he was not like Lao Xie who habitually doubted everything. His mood was immediately lifted by Tang Cheng's words. Huang Guangyu then looked at Lao Xie with excitement, but Lao Xie was looking at Tang Cheng, with a hint of dissatisfaction on his expression. Apparently he had heard that Tang Cheng wanted to deceive him and Huang Guangyu.
Tang Cheng, who was being stared at by Lao Xie, had a calm expression on his face, as if his words just now were just good intentions and were not meant to deceive Lao Xie and the other two. Lao Xie was about to speak, but Huang Guangyu grabbed his left arm. He turned his head and looked over, and met Huang Guangyu's excited eyes. Seeing Huang Guangyu's appearance, Lao Xie secretly sighed in his heart, and then raised his right thumb at Tang Cheng with a look of resentment. "You are really good!" Lao Xie, with a helpless look on his face, whispered to Tang Cheng, causing the latter to laugh out loud.
Seeing that Lao Xie finally gave in, Tang Cheng smiled at Lao Xie and said, "We are all sensible people. If you want to dig a hole and drag me into the water, why don't you allow me to kill you again?" As he spoke, Tang Cheng Pointing to Huang Guangyu. "Lao Xie, you are not as straightforward as Lao Huang! If there is a way to make a fortune, Lao Huang is very straightforward. He makes money based on his ability. There is nothing shameful!" Tang Cheng's words made Lao Xie's forehead pop out with veins. Do you think I care about embarrassing things?
Fortunately, Lao Xie was not a fool. He reacted immediately and understood that Tang Cheng was just joking on purpose. After taking a deep breath and forcing himself to calm down, Lao Xie spoke. "How sure are you of what you are talking about? What is the situation in Chongqing now? You don't know that people like us who have been transferred back from the front line will most likely be assigned to work in the Ministry of Military and Political Affairs. Do you think those senior officials in the Ministry of Military and Political Affairs are... Would you like us to come here and cause trouble for the Japanese and puppet troops?"
Lao Xie's tone was normal, and Tang Cheng also straightened his expression, "I don't know how people in the Military and Political Department do things. But I know that when people are hungry, they must eat to satisfy their hunger. The Shangguan of the Military and Political Department disagrees. I don't know, but I know that if you can achieve results, they may take credit, but they will never deliberately cause trouble for you. After all, you do things, they take credit, and you all get benefits!" Tangcheng said. The answer given is not satisfactory, but it is not unreasonable.
All in all, the conversation between the three of them in Tangcheng did not come to a conclusion. Tangcheng was willing to see someone continue to attack the Japanese and puppet troops and eliminate the effective strength of the Japanese and puppet troops to a certain extent, but Lao Xie was worried that someone from the Ministry of Military Affairs would take advantage of this to make a fuss. As for Huang Guangyu, both Tang Cheng and Lao Xie chose to ignore him, because Huang Guangyu looked abnormal in his excitement.
After a night of repairs, the convoy was back on the road. Before noon, Tangcheng and the others had returned to the area controlled by the national army. At this point, everyone could finally relax, and Lao Xie immediately disappeared. Tang Cheng did not pay attention to Lao Xie's disappearance, because he knew that Lao Xie must have gone to find the deputy commander of the National Army whom he was familiar with. Sure enough, during dinner, Lao Xie, who had not been seen all afternoon, finally showed up. Judging from his expression, he seemed to be in a good mood.
"The deputy commander of the local garrison is an old acquaintance of mine. I asked him to find out about the situation here." Before Huang Guangyu could ask, Lao Xie took the initiative to explain his whereabouts and reasons. "There are many artillery towers and strongholds arranged in the Japanese-controlled areas, no less than a hundred large and small! According to the intelligence collected by the national army, the Japanese army has been continuously deploying troops to South Asia. Most of their defense areas are filled with new soldiers and wounded soldiers. He is a disabled veteran, so his combat effectiveness is not very strong.”
"Currently, the Japanese-controlled areas are in peace with the national army. One reason is that the national army also suffered heavy casualties and needs time to repair and replenish its troops. The other is that there are rumors during this period that the Japanese hope for peace talks, so , the National Army is still waiting and watching! The wars in the past few years have caused heavy losses to the National Army, and no officer would want all the soldiers under his command to suffer casualties. Therefore, they feel that it is best to continue like this. When the Japanese can no longer afford it, they finally choose to leave on their own."
The news that Lao Xie brought back made Tang Cheng frown slightly. It was obvious that he was very dissatisfied with the attitude of these national army generals. At present, the Japanese army's defeat is obvious. Because of their South Asian operations, the Japanese army in the Chinese theater has repeatedly deployed troops to support the South Asian battlefield. Now is a great opportunity for the national army to counterattack. But these national troops now only want to play a war of attrition with the Japanese army. They only want to rely on the rear area and wear out the Japanese army until they leave voluntarily.
However, in front of Lao Xie and Huang Guangyu, Tang Cheng did not show his impatience. After all, he was now in an area controlled by the national army, and he did not want to cause unnecessary trouble. As for what Lao Xie and the others would think, Tang Cheng didn't care at all. As long as he returned to Chongqing, he would have little or no interaction with them. To put it simply, Lao Xie has not made up his mind until now, but Lao Xie has found a home for the Japanese light and heavy machine guns they captured.
"Not bad! Lao Xie, you have the potential to be an arms dealer!" I learned that Lao Xie had already established a relationship with the deputy commander of the garrison, and persuaded him to exchange the captured light and heavy machine guns for a batch of them with the local garrison. Tang Cheng couldn't help but praise Lao Xie for the Japanese-style Tomosaka rifle ammunition. "There is no market for light and heavy machine guns in Chongqing's black market, but those who buy such heavy firepower weapons will definitely be targeted by spies in the black market. The Japanese army's bolt-action rifles are relatively simple, and many landlords and squires like them. Get this cheap bolt action rifle.”
After two days of repairs here, Tang Cheng and his party started their return journey in two trucks and three three-wheeled motorcycles captured from the Japanese army. With the sign of "Military Tong", even though Tangcheng and the others were intercepted by military checkpoints many times along the way, they did not have any trouble in the end. And Huang Guangyu was not idle along the way. He was riding a three-wheeled motorcycle alone and acted as a salesman along the way. He sold the weapons and ammunition they were going to transport back to Chongqing, and sold them to people of all ages. .
The arms carried in the vehicle can be exchanged for money without returning to Chongqing, which undoubtedly aroused everyone's interest. After all, bringing so many weapons and ammunition back to Chongqing is bound to cause unnecessary trouble. If the higher-ups notice this, little guys like them might get into trouble. A few days later, when Tangcheng and the others were only two days away from Chongqing, Huang Guangyu and the others had sold out all the weapons and ammunition they had brought back with the car. In the end, only the grenade launchers were left unmanned. Ask.
Huang Guangyu was very puzzled by this. The lethality of the grenade was much stronger than that of the rifle. "Old Huang, I think you are just fighting and have lost your mind! Don't even look at where this place is. This is the rear area! The landlords and squires bought a few guns and some bullets, just for guarding the homes and nursing homes. ! Putting aside whether they know how to use grenade launchers, even if they know how to use them, do you think they can use grenade launchers when they are looking after homes and homes?”
Tang Cheng's teasing made Huang Guangyu depressed, but it also solved the doubts in his heart. Tang Cheng then took over everything and said that he would help solve the remaining grenade launchers, and Huang Guangyu's mood improved. Generally speaking, Tang Cheng and the others completed their mission quite successfully, and the unexpected wealth gained was enough for everyone to make a lot of money. Both the two teams of military commanders and Lao Xie and Huang Guangyu were extremely satisfied.
