So Zheng Yaoming asked Meng Songping: "What is Oda Ichiro's business? Does he want to buy something or sell something?"
"He is selling something, but what exactly is he selling?" Meng Songping shook his head. "I asked him twice, but he didn't explain. He said, if you are interested, leader, you can contact him."
Chief of Staff Mu Jiuwen on the side couldn't help but become suspicious: "He wants to sell something, but he doesn't say what it is. This doesn't sound like a serious business."
Under normal circumstances, when doing business and selling things, you must show off the goods.
If you don't even show off your goods, how can you do business?
Meng Songping explained: "I guess his opinions must be kept secret in his life, and things should be kept secret and not allowed to be known to the military. As for whether this business is serious or not, I think it is serious."
"Why do you see it?" Mu Jiuwen asked.
We can understand that the other party has a secret opinion and cannot let the Japanese military headquarters know about it.
But if you want to sell something to us without letting the buyer know what the product is, and keep it secret from the buyer, can it be considered a serious business?
"When I was besieged in Fangcun Mountain, he sent someone to do business with me, saying that he would buy two battalion-level mountain cannons that I had. If I agreed, he would give us a way out." Meng Songping said seriously, "That person at that time Under the circumstances, I was in a desperate situation. I directly stated my position. As long as I was willing to fight for a way for my brothers to survive, I could give him these two battalion-level mountain cannons for free, but he refused. He removed me from When the encirclement was taken out, they actually gave me the money for the two mountain cannons, you see."
After Meng Songping finished speaking, he took out the money.
Mu Jiuwen and Zheng Yaoming looked at the money Meng Songping took out. They looked at each other in confusion. They still thought what Meng Songping said was too incredible.
Ichiro Oda clearly can get it for free, but he still has to pay for it. He doesn't sound like a serious businessman.
Meng Songping continued to speak: "Regiment Commander, Chief of Staff, he could have taken the two mountain cannons for free, but he had to pay for them. This just proves that he is a principled businessman, he does business according to his duty, and he has to pay for it." It's not about taking advantage of others. I know you two don't believe what I say, but you can send someone to contact Oda Ichiro and confirm with him face to face. What exactly does he want to sell? You can also find out whether he has principles. .”
Zheng Yaoming and Mu Jiuwen were silent for a while after hearing this.
You look at me, I look at you, I don’t know what to say for a moment.
In the current situation, it seems that the only way to confirm it with Oda Ichiro is in person.
It seems that there is no need to confirm. After all, if Oda Ichiro hadn't released him, Meng Songping would not have a chance to return.
Mu Jiuwen spoke: "Captain, why don't you send someone to contact Oda Ichiro?"
Zheng Yaoming looked at Meng Songping: "How can I get in touch with Oda Ichiro?"
"He said, just go to his defense area to find him." Meng Songping said.
When Zheng Yaoming and Mu Jiuwen heard this, they still looked hesitant.
Although both of them believed that Meng Songping would not rebel, if Oda Ichiro did not let him go, it would be impossible for Meng Songping to come back.
But still...you have to be careful about this.
Go directly to Oda Ichiro's defense area. What should I do if someone is detained?
Meng Songping looked at the expressions of Zheng Yaoming and Mu Jiuwen, and he said tentatively: "Regiment leader, chief of staff, how about I make another hard trip and ask him to meet him for you?"
When Zheng Yaoming and Mu Jiuwen heard this, they thought it was okay.
Oda Ichiro really wants to do business, and he is willing to take the initiative to negotiate, so he doesn't have to worry about being detained.
Meng Songping's experience is still too bizarre. It is best to confirm with Ichiro Oda in person.
"Meng Songping, I can promise you that you go and try to ask Oda Ichiro out." Zheng Yaoming spoke and said to Meng Songping: "But the issue of the placement of your more than 100 people..."
Under normal circumstances, they should be locked up temporarily until the whole story is figured out.
Wait until the matter is clarified and then deal with it as appropriate.
but.
If what Meng Songping said is true, then these more than 100 people are passionate and loyal people.
They fought bloody battles and returned home after hard work. They should feel the care of their family, not the confinement!
If this thing is not done well, it can easily make people feel discouraged.
Before Zheng Yaoming finished speaking, Meng Songping interrupted: "Captain, I explained to them when I came back that our experience was very bizarre. Commander, you will not believe it easily. We should cooperate with the regiment leader's routine treatment of us." , he will be locked up when he should be locked up, and he will be asked what he needs to be asked. They have all reached an agreement and are willing to cooperate with the investigation of the regiment headquarters."
After hearing what Meng Songping said, Zheng Yaoming patted his shoulder and said, "Meng Songping, don't worry, I will never let your brothers be wronged."
"Captain, I'm going to talk to them now and ask them to cooperate with the regiment's investigation." Meng Songping said, "I also want to explain to them why I have to leave here temporarily."
"Well, you go ahead." Zheng Yaoming nodded.
Meng Songping saluted Zheng Yaoming and Mu Jiuwen and walked out.
Zheng Yaoming and Mu Jiuwen then walked out slowly. As they walked, Zheng Yaoming spoke: "What do you think of Oda Ichiro doing business?"
"Captain, you and I are both people who lead troops to fight. What we think about in our minds is serving the country and recovering the country!" Mu Jiuwen looked solemn, "Those who still think about doing business during the war will, sooner or later, It will harm the country!"
But Zheng Yaoming said: "Brother Jiuwen, sometimes don't be so extreme when looking at problems."
"Captain, do you really want to do business with Ichiro Oda?" Mu Jiuwen looked at Zheng Yaoming.
"To be honest, I have no interest at all in what Oda Ichiro wants to sell. After all, you are right, I am a person who leads troops to fight, not a businessman." Zheng Yaoming said seriously.
"Then you still want Meng Songping to contact Ichiro Oda?" Mu Jiuwen was confused.
"No matter how strong a person is, if there is a bottleneck in his body, it means he has a weakness."
Zheng Yaoming emphasized the word "weakness".
When Mu Jiuwen heard this, he immediately understood what Zheng Yaoming meant.
The Watada Battalion has experienced hundreds of battles and is a very difficult enemy to deal with.
As for Oda Ichiro, he is from the Fourth Division.
What the men of the Fourth Division are best at is holding back friendly forces on the battlefield.
In other words, this Ichiro Oda is most likely the weakness of the Watada Brigade.
Through Ichiro Oda, we may have a chance to weaken the strength of the Watada brigade.
Even when the time comes, let Oda Ichiro drag the Watada brigade and create opportunities for us to severely damage the Watada brigade!
I have to say that the leader's mind is really flexible.
