Chapter Forty-Six: Difficulties

"More machine gun air defense? How do you say this? Listening to Ren Laifeng's suggestion on air defense, the chairman of the committee immediately perked up and stared at Ren Laifeng with a sparkling gaze.

"As you just said, our country's industry is backward compared to Japan's. We don't have as many planes as them, and even fewer anti-aircraft guns. But we have a lot of conventional weapons. I don't know about other troops, but there are soldiers in my unit who have shot down Japanese planes with heavy machine guns! ”

"If you want to set up more heavy machine-gun positions around Chongqing and in important areas of the city. The devil plane is coming, let's shoot ten thousand guns! I don't believe they can be as unscrupulous as they are now! Not to mention too much, we put 10,000 heavy machine guns and shoot down 20 planes every day, 600 in a month, 1,200 in two months! How many planes are available to us in Japan? ”

"Put 10,000 heavy machine guns into the sky?" The chairman suddenly stood up, rubbing his hands together and pacing quickly in the conference room. "That's a good idea! 10,000 guns to protect the city! After two trips, the chairman's brows slowly furrowed, "However, if 10,000 heavy machine guns are drawn from the troops, I am afraid that the combat effectiveness of the front-line troops will be reduced." ”

"It seems that there are only a few more arsenals for the production of heavy machine guns. Well, this thing is still operable. Laifeng, if this matter is handed over to you, how long will it take to be effective? "The effect means that Chongqing is bombed less frequently, and the chairman of the committee is tired of the daily bombing and air raid sirens!

How long does it take to get results? As long as 10,000 heavy machine guns are arranged, tomorrow you will see results! But the question is, where did these 10,000 heavy machine guns come from? Can the chairman of the committee have a headache and handle it easily?

Ren Laifeng frowned and considered his tone, and said an ambiguous number, "At least two or three months, right?" ”

"Two or three months? It's a little longer. However, the War of Resistance is not a battle that can be fought all at once, I give you an order, and all relevant departments must give you support! It's limited to three months, and I'll see how your 10,000 guns will look after three months! ”

After the matter was decided, the chairman of the committee was in a good mood, and for the first time, he actually poured Ren Laifeng a glass of red wine in the office. His office was absolutely forbidden to speak and drink before today.

The two of them chatted for a while, Ren Laifeng drank all the wine in the glass and walked out of the door, and the reception official who sent him was still waiting for him at the door. I heard that Ren Laifeng was specially received by the chairman of the committee after the award ceremony, and the two of them talked separately, and the envy on the official's face could not be stopped. On the way back, Ren Laifeng's attitude was even more friendly.

Two days later, a press conference was held, at which Ren Laifeng confirmed to reporters from all over the world the fact that the Northeast anti-Japanese guerrillas had killed Kawasaki Hiroki, chief of staff of the Fourth Army of the Second Front Army of the Japanese Kwantung Army, which shocked China and the rest of the world in one fell swoop.

After the press conference, Ren Laifeng began to prepare for the 10,000-gun defense of the city. First of all, he got the Military Commission to find the relevant personnel to write the documents, and then took the documents of the Military Commission to prepare for the construction of a new arsenal. These things are simple to say, but they really have to be complicated.

Take the Military Commission as an example, Ren Laifeng applied for a draft. A certain person did not come because he was sick and asked for leave, so he had to delay it until the next day. The next day the man came, but the other man was not there for other reasons, so he couldn't do it.

Ren Laifeng came every day for a week, not because people were not there or because of other things, in short, he didn't get anything done seven days a week. If it's because I'm going to the chairman, it seems that he doesn't have a strong ability to do things.

Ren Laifeng was about to think of a way to pick something to do in the Military Commission, but on the eighth day, he received a telegram from the northeast, the Japanese army in Binjiang Province was moving frequently, and it seemed that Kuaba Tatsumi was preparing to carry out some kind of military action.

Will that guy target Qinggang County? But now that I've taken over the task of chairman, I can't leave! Ren Laifeng suddenly fell into a tangle.

On the morning of the ninth day, Ren Laifeng welcomed a special guest at his residence. This man was wearing a dark tunic with short hair, and his eyes were always staring into the eyes of others. Let the people who meet him always have the feeling of being targeted by carnivorous beasts.

Ren Laifeng always felt that this person was a little familiar, but he was sure that he had never seen this person.

"It's the commander-in-chief, I'm Dai Li. Lin Xincheng, the deputy commander-in-chief of your department, probably mentioned me to you, right? I'm sorry to take the liberty of coming here today. ”

This guy who speaks politely and looks at people very rudely is Dai Li? China's biggest spy boss right now? Ren Laifeng couldn't help but get nervous. If anyone heard that the person standing in front of them was Dai Li, I'm afraid they would have to be nervous, right?

"Ah, it turned out to be Director Dai, please sit down, please take a seat. Yingying, pour tea for Director Dai. ”

Dai Li stared at Feng Wenying a few times, and seemed very interested, "This is Mrs. Zun, right?" I heard that Mrs. Zun is proficient in national arts, and she is a strong martial artist. ”

"Hehe, I've won awards. This, I don't know what Director Dai's visit is for today's visit? "For Dai Li, Ren Laifeng's vigilance is too deep. If you don't understand Director Dai's intentions, Ren Laifeng won't even be able to sleep well at night.

At this time, Feng Wenying had already made tea, brought two cups and put them in front of Dai Li and Ren Laifeng respectively. She didn't go out, but found a corner, and quietly watched these two outstanding men.

"What are you doing? I was asked to give you a message. Don't be surprised, commander-in-chief. Dai Li said kind words, picked up the teacup in his hand and blew on it. Let me tell you that man wants you to give up your plan to defend the city with 10,000 guns. I'm just passing on the word, whether I want to follow you or not. Dai Lian waved his hand, indicating that this matter had nothing to do with him.

Is it really irrelevant? If it is irrelevant, you will come specifically to pass the word? And who can command Dai Lia to spread the word?

"You don't have to guess, it's Chen Guofu."

Dai Li has a close relationship with the Chen brothers, and it is normal to pass on a word for him. It's just that the big boss of the Military Command Bureau actually told the person on the other end as soon as he opened his mouth, which surprised Ren Laifeng. He was not surprised by Chen Guofu's name, Ren Laifeng was surprised by Dai Li's outspoken words. Even if you're not afraid of me telling others, don't you understand the truth that one less person knows, one less risk?

The news that Dai Li brought today can be said to be timely and rainy, and it came just in time, and it solved Ren Laifeng's problem at once. It couldn't be better for Chen Guofu to let himself give up. No matter what reason Chen Guofu spread this story, Ren Laifeng believes that Lao Chen will not be a traitor. In this way, won't he be able to go back to the Northeast?
