Due to the failure of the First Army in the encirclement and suppression of the 18th Group Army and the Shanxi-Sui Army, especially the three divisions supported by Gangcun Cining came in behind.
The First Army was in a haze, and the atmosphere in Taiyuan City also seemed very depressing.
Especially the intelligence war and espionage war that Yoshio Shinozuka has been engaged in recently. In order to find the strategic master of the 18th Army, the Japanese agents were going crazy.
Even if you just casually go out on the street, you will arrest anyone who seems suspicious.
During this period, many officers of the Royal Association Army in Taiyuan City suffered disaster.
In fact, even Zhong Ze was almost arrested and sent to the special high school. If it weren't for his connection with the arsenal, a punishment would have been inevitable.
On this day, Zhong Ze went to meet with the landlady as usual.
Zhong Ze got the latest mission instructions from the landlady and opened it in a place where no one was around.
Zhong Ze frowned, and his superiors asked him to get the important machines back immediately and stimulate Pu You to do something in advance.
But soon, Zhong Ze's brows widened.
After Pu You was promoted to deputy director of the Taiyuan Arsenal, he had already done a few small jobs secretly, and Pu You had already tasted the benefits.
At this time, you can also let Pu You have a big fight in advance.
Of course, if you want to have a big fight, there is one link that cannot be missed, and that is father Zhong Yunhe.
Relying on the smuggling route established by his father Zhong Yunhe, the captain of the Taiyuan Security Brigade, this is crucial and must not make any mistakes.
"Where's your captain?" Zhong Ze came to Zhong Yunhe's office and didn't see Zhong Yunhe.
"The captain went on inspection." The secretary told Zhong Ze.
"Oh." Zhong Ze said, turned around and left.
Not long after, Zhong Ze pulled out Zhong Yunhe in a small courtyard.
Zhong Yunhe struggled while lifting his pants: "Oze, let go. Let me put my pants up first so that others can see it. It's not good."
"Old guy, what do you want me to say to you? It's not like you don't know what's going on in Taiyuan City now." Zhong Ze pointed at Zhong Yunhe's nose and cursed, "The Taijuns found the masters of the 18th Group Army and almost destroyed the entire city. The northwestern part of Shanxi has been dug deep, and even I almost got admitted to the extra-high school class. Under such a severe situation, you actually have the guts to do this!"
"Oze, I haven't looked for him since the Chinese New Year until now..." Zhong Yunhe defended.
"When your life is gone, let's see if you can still find it!" Zhong Ze scolded.
"Oze, Taiyuan City is too dangerous now. Otherwise, let's go back." Zhong Yunhe shrank his neck and said.
In the past, we came here only to see the peace of Taiyuan City.
But now, Taiyuan City is the most dangerous place.
To find the strategic masters of the 18th Army, go to the mountains to look for them, or just look for something in Taiyuan City.
How can the 18th Army foolishly hide its strategic masters in Taiyuan City and create a routine where the most dangerous place is also the safest place?
"Go back, where can we go back!" Zhong Ze glared, "The Fourth Brigade has been uprooted by Tubal Road, where can we go back?"
"As long as we don't stay in Taiyuan City, we can go anywhere else. This Taijun keeps a close eye on spies every day. Maybe we will be tricked in at some point." Zhong Yunhe said worriedly.
"You really don't want to stay in Taiyuan City?" Zhong Ze pretended.
"Oze, have you already thought of a way out?" Zhong Yunhe heard something in Zhong Ze's words.
"The way out is not that easy to figure out." Zhong Ze said, "However, the princes above are going to do a big job. You have to keep an eye on it yourself and make sure nothing goes wrong. If this vote is done, Well, maybe you have somewhere new to go."
Father Zhong Yunhe is a traitor, this is a stain.
Only by making meritorious deeds can you have the chance to be forgiven.
"Where is the new place?" Zhong Yunhe's eyes lit up.
"Why are you asking so many questions? How can I still harm you?" Zhong Ze said seriously, "This job is very, very important. You must keep an eye on it yourself."
"Ozawa, don't let this single job contain something forbidden by Taijun." Zhong Yunhe was worried, "Taijun is an inhuman beast, we have to be careful, don't become a scapegoat for others. .”
"I know, I don't need you to remind me." Zhong Ze said, "Go and prepare now. There are a lot of things this time and they are a bit heavy."
"Okay, okay." Zhong Yunhe responded.
After Zhong Ze and Zhong Yunhe finished talking, they went to Taiyuan Arsenal.
Now Zhong Ze is almost an idler in the Taiyuan Arsenal... Ahem, although this is not quite accurate, it is roughly correct.
After pretending to inspect the warehouse, Zhong Ze came to Pu You, took out more than twenty large and small yellow croakers, and placed them in front of Pu You.
"Director Zhong, what do you mean?" Pu You paused.
"Deputy Factory Director Pu, I have found a big customer, and this is the deposit paid in advance." Zhong Ze said.
"What kind of big customer does he want?" When Pu You heard about the big customer, he suddenly smiled.
After being promoted to deputy factory director, Pu You worked a few jobs. Although he made some money, he was not happy at all.
Now, Pu You is also planning to do something big.
At this time, a big customer happened to come to our door, so just as we wanted, we would give him a pillow if he feels sleepy.
"Deputy Director Pu, what I want is extraordinary." Zhong Ze handed the catalog menu to Pu You.
Of course, the machine indicated at the rear is not inside.
Even if Pu You wants to do a big job, this is also the first big job, so he can't sell everything.
But when it comes to operation, you can sneak the machine in.
Pu You took it and took a look. Just as Zhong Ze expected, Pu You frowned: "These are some things that are indeed quite sensitive. The intelligence personnel at the headquarters are active now. Although we are not like Spies are not easy to get along with, but if they are found out, it will be very troublesome."
"Deputy Director Pu, the big customer has said that they can add money," Zhong Ze added.
When Pu You heard that he could add more money, he immediately got excited and asked seriously: "How much more?"
"Add 30%." Zhong Ze said.
When Pu You heard this, he threw the catalog menu on the table: "Add 30%, what kind of business does this little family want to do? I won't sell it!"
"Deputy Director Pu, I have to say that this is our first cooperation. If the cooperation goes well, there will be big orders in the future, at least ten times more than the one in front of us." Zhong Ze said.
"Really?" Pu You was doubtful. In this case, you can still consider it.
"Deputy Director Pu, if you don't believe me, go talk to me yourself and I'll introduce you to him," Zhong Ze pretended.
"That's not necessary." Pu You shook his head and looked at Zhong Ze: "Tell the other party that if you are really sincere about cooperation, we will increase the price by 50%! If you are willing, we will sell it and we are not willing to sell it out."
Pu You was promoted to deputy factory director, but Zhong Ze secretly helped.
Now Zhong Ze is deeply trusted by Pu You, and Zhong Ze is responsible for all the side projects, and he acts as the hands-on shopkeeper.
Now, Zhong Ze is naturally authorized to do this job.
Grain Penny
"Deputy Director Pu, let me communicate with the other party again." Zhong Ze nodded.
"As soon as possible, money is a little tight recently. The prodigal woman at home has been cheating on her recently and needs a lot of money." Pu You urged Zhong Ze.
"Okay, okay." Zhong Ze nodded.
As for Puyou's wife Saki Inoue's attempt to cheat on Lou Zi, that was naturally done by Zhong Ze secretly based on the instructions from above.
At this time, the timing came just right.
Pu You, who was short of money, successfully and responsibly fell into the trap.
The next day.
Zhong Ze came to Pu You again and handed him more than a dozen large and small yellow croakers: "Deputy Director Pu, this is another deposit from the other party. They are willing to increase the price by 50% to do business with you."
"Yo Xi, that's right. We took such a big risk, so the price should be reasonable." Pu You put away the big and small yellow croakers with a smile and looked at Zhong Ze, "When will the balance be paid?"
"They say you pay with one hand and deliver with the other." Zhong Ze replied, "These are extraordinary times after all. It is inconvenient for others to pay if they don't get the goods."
"Then hold on tight, I'll give you the approval slip right now." After Pu You finished speaking, he immediately wrote some relevant approval slips to Zhong Ze.
In order for items from the arsenal to be exported, approval is required.
This is also the condition for Pu You to do something big after being promoted to deputy factory director.
Without the approval slip, it is impossible for some important things to pass the security check.
"Deputy Director Pu, I'll hurry up and get busy." Zhong Ze took the approval slip and left immediately.
Over the past few months, Zhong Ze has developed several down-line personnel in the arsenal, and he immediately arranged for the down-line personnel to prepare things properly.
As for precision machines that were not on the catalog list, they were also loaded.
"Director Zhong, we secretly took this precision machine away. What should we do with the inventory at the end of the month?" a downline staff asked Zhong Ze.
At the end of every month, the Arsenal takes inventory.
At that time, the Japanese inventory personnel will definitely find that the precision machinery has been taken away. At that time, they will definitely investigate.
"Isn't there still a week before the end of the month?" Zhong Ze said calmly, "Let's get the things out of the way first."
Zhong Ze has been given instructions from above. When the time comes to take stock, there will be an accidental explosion in the arsenal, and many precision machines will be blown up.
In this way, the hole is blocked.
Perhaps, some people would say that creating an accidental explosion destroyed many precision machines.
When the time comes to capture the Taiyuan Arsenal, wouldn't there be less to capture?
No.
These precision machines are very important. Once they are destroyed by bombing, the Japanese will quickly replace them.
"Okay." The offline staff said nothing more, and everything was quickly loaded into the truck.
The off-line personnel took Pu You's approval slip and drove out of the arsenal's entrance in a swaggering manner.
During this period, although they were interrogated by the Japanese, the Japanese did not find the hidden hand.
In the end, the sophisticated machine was successfully handed over to Zhong Yunhe, who personally escorted the batch of materials along the smuggling route and successfully transported them out of Taiyuan.
…
"Xiao Wu, what kind of gun model are you drawing?"
This time, Wu Ze was copying the structural drawings of the AK47 rifle from memory, and Zhang Wanhe came over happily.
AK47 rifle, this is the king of guns in later generations, with a production volume of over 100 million!
The gun has a simple structure, fierce firepower, low failure rate and easy maintenance.
Whether it is harsh desert weather or humid tropical rainforest, it has superior combat performance.
When Zhong Ze gets the precision machine back, Wu Ze can also try to imitate the AK47 rifle.
Why is it said to be imitation?
Although the AK47 rifle has a simple structure, its manufacturing process is not.
The conditions of the 18th Group Army's border arsenal are currently limited, so Wu Ze can only try to imitate a few based on the conditions of the arsenal for the time being.
Why do we say to imitate a few instead of making many.
The reason is simple. The AK47 has fierce firepower, but it eats a lot of bullets.
The arsenal currently produces only 100,000 rounds of bullets per month, so priority should be given to supplying ammunition gaps for large armies.
Therefore, AK47 can only imitate some prototype guns now.
When the Taiyuan Arsenal is taken down later and the conditions of the arsenal improve, mass production may be considered.
At that time, the AK47 was mainly used to equip the team's special forces.
The special forces are the trump card of the 18th Army, and the equipment must be powerful.
"Haha, it's nothing, I'm just casually thinking about a new rifle." Wu Ze chuckled, put away the drawings, and looked at Zhang Wanhe: "Old Zhang, looking at the wind on your face, I guess it's a precision machine from the Taiyuan Arsenal. Are you back?"
"Yes, that's right." Zhang Wanhe nodded happily, "The things have just arrived at my place. I have already checked them out. Here is the list. I also asked my logistics staff to seize the time to transport them to you. Things are still on their way.”
Zhang Wanhe completely ignored the structural drawings of the AK47 rifle.
He would not have imagined what kind of sensation this AK47 rifle would cause after it was manufactured!
Wu Ze took the order handed over by Zhang Wanhe and looked at it: "Well, that's great, that's great. The required precision machines are all available. Now, we can seize the time to produce parts for the 88 anti-aircraft gun. "
Zhang Wanhe rubbed his hands: "Yes, the Japanese are deploying troops to carry out a new round of revenge on us. It is said that they are still borrowing planes from the Kwantung Army. This is not a good thing. If we don't get rid of our troops earlier, If the artillery is produced, we will be beaten."
"It's not easy to borrow the Kwantung Army's planes," Wu Zedao said, "We still have some time, so we should be able to do it in time."
At present, the D Army has not yet invaded the Soviet Union, and the relationship between the Kwantung Army and the Soviet Union is still tense.
The Kwantung Army wanted to guard against the Soviet Union, and aircraft were important strategic weapons. It was not easy for Okamura Jining to borrow them smoothly.
Wu Ze ended the topic and urged, "Old Zhang, seize the time to mine the mine you opened over there, maintain the production and operation of the arsenal as much as possible, and produce more weapons and ammunition for the troops."
Wu Ze used some "very humane" methods to make the Japanese mechanics who were captured from the Japanese mines willing to atone for their sins.
With the help of the Japanese technicians, several mining sites have been found in Dashan, and they are seizing the time to mine them to provide raw materials for the production of the arsenal.
Of course, as I said before, after the deputy commander-in-chief's attack on Shota, the World War II area will face a brutal sweep by the Japanese.
The arsenal must be relocated to the rear in advance, so we must seize the time for production.
"I know, I know." Zhang Wanhe nodded repeatedly. He thought Wu Ze was urging him for the production of the arsenal, but he did not expect that the arsenal would be moved in a few months.
At that time, when the big sweep comes, the most difficult moment of the war of resistance will come!
