Chapter 12 Achievement of Purpose
After paying careful attention to Wang Bingzhang and Hu Lancheng's expressions, Tang Cheng finally expressed his request, Wang Bingzhang didn't have anything, after all, the old policemen Tang Cheng mentioned just now were promised to Tang Cheng before. But Hu Lancheng was dumbfounded at the moment, he didn't expect Tang Cheng to have such a request, the military camp in the east of the city was indeed about to be abandoned, but it was only about to be abandoned, not already abandoned, Hu Lancheng said in his heart that Tang Cheng's mind was really big enough.
The hesitation on Hu Lancheng's face was obvious, but Tang Cheng didn't seem to see it, probably because they were all locals, but Wang Bingzhang said at this time. "I know that place is indeed about to be abandoned, but although that place was used by the garrison regiment before, the garrison regiment of Commander Hu has no right to sell it, and this matter still needs to be solved by the city government." Wang Bingzhang's words made some sense, but Tang Cheng didn't think so at all.
"If that's the case, then Commander Hu can provide us with a batch of weapons and ammunition for daily training. But don't get me wrong, Commander Hu, we don't want to get a batch of weapons and ammunition from you, but borrow your weapons for daily training, and after the training, the weapons will be handed over to your people to take back to the barracks, and we won't even take a single bullet with us. Tang Cheng's explanation sounded a little tongue-twisting, but fortunately, Hu Lancheng already understood what Tang Cheng meant.
In the backyard of Hu Ji's pawnshop, things were explained thoroughly, and after Wang Bingzhang and Hu Lancheng nodded one after another and said that they would go back immediately to transfer people, Tang Cheng secretly breathed a sigh of relief. finally contributed to this matter, and Tang Cheng also had some small excitement in his heart, but after Zhang Jianghe glanced at him, this little joy in Tang Cheng's heart disappeared in an instant.
"Don't you think it's interesting to play with a bureau chief and a deputy head of the regiment?" On the way back to his residence, Zhang Jianghe turned to look at Tang Cheng in the back seat of the car, and Tang Cheng, who was sitting in the back seat with Zhang Jianghe, originally had a little pride in his heart, but at this moment, Zhang Jianghe's words instantly turned out the fire. When Zhang Jianghe faced official business, he had long since stopped treating Tang Cheng as his son and nephew, and the tone of his speech just now was his attitude towards his colleagues.
Once Zhang Jianghe took out a solemn posture, Tang Cheng immediately felt unbearable, because he and Zhang Jianghe had never gotten along so formally. "Uncle, you know I don't have that kind of thought." After a slight pause, Tang Cheng, who had come back to his senses, looked at Zhang Jianghe helplessly, and secretly complained in his mouth. "And I'm not going to play around with that! That's obviously a discussion! Besides, Wang Bingzhang and that Hu Lancheng are not good men and women, if they can't get benefits in this matter, how can they agree so happily. ”
"So, we're calling it an equivalent exchange, not a toy you just said!" Seeing that Zhang Jianghe couldn't refute his words for a while, Tang Cheng's heart rose with a little pride again, and finally happily added an ending to his words. Tang Cheng's words really made Zhang Jianghe speechless for a while, thinking carefully about Tang Cheng's words just now, Zhang Jianghe didn't find a flaw in it, and he also agreed with Tang Cheng's statement of equivalent exchange in the end.
In the second half of the return to the residence, Tang Cheng and Zhang Jianghe were silent, both of them secretly thinking about their thoughts. Tang Cheng's thinking is self-evident, what he is thinking about now is how to quickly open up the situation in Chongqing, and then he can use Zhang Jianghe's name and power as a help to allow himself to gain a foothold in Chongqing. And Zhang Jianghe's consideration is even more cumbersome, because he doesn't have any cronies in his hands to use it with confidence, and the situation Zhang Jianghe has to face is far more dangerous than Tang Cheng expected.
The news of Xu Bald's arrest was tightly sealed by Wang Bingzhang according to the plan, and Hu Lancheng, who had newly joined the plan, had rushed back to the garrison and began to select soldiers to prepare for the operation of clearing Xu Baldzi's lair. It was not until the afternoon of three days later, with the great victory of successfully clearing Xu Bald's lair, that Wang Bingzhang and Hu Lancheng triumphantly led a group of bandits back to Chongqing City, and the news of Xu Bald's arrest finally spread.
According to the steps discussed by Tang Cheng and several people in Hu Ji's backyard that day, the names of Tang Cheng and Zhang Jianghe will not appear in the aftermath report, and the action team directly commanded by Zhang Jianghe will also take the credit for providing intelligence, and most of the credit will fall on the heads of Wang Bingzhang and Hu Lancheng. "Why give them the credit for nothing? To encircle and suppress the bandits, we also helped! Zhou Hongxiang, who came to clean the room for Tang Cheng and Zhang Jianghe, was very unhappy with this result, and when Wang Bingzhang and Hu Lancheng mobilized people to encircle and suppress the bandits' lair, Tang Cheng and Zhou Hongxiang also participated.
In the battle to encircle and suppress the remnants of the bandits, Tang Cheng's Mauser sniper rifle was very prominent, and Zhou Hongxiang acted as Tang Cheng's observer at that time, and he was very familiar with what happened that day. "Forget it, those are the little things that don't matter, and the old camp where you can get the garrison is the most important thing. The current situation is the most beneficial for us, and if we hold all the benefits in the palm of our hands, we will only offend people. Tang Cheng's words to comfort Zhou Hongxiang were very straightforward, but the truth was true.
One of the biggest reasons why Tang Cheng participated in the operation that day was to supervise the process of counting the loot after the fact, and the intelligence department represented by Zhang Jianghe accounted for sixty percent of the loot obtained from the destruction of Xu Bald's lair. Not only has he cleared Xu Baldzi's lair, but he can also leave the funds needed to form an action team, and now he can get a piece of military camp from the garrison regiment at the price of cabbage, such a good thing, Tang Cheng hopes to encounter it once a day.
"I still underestimate them! I didn't expect this uncle and nephew to have some skills! When Tang Cheng and the others were rejoicing, Xu Zifeng and the others who learned the news were secretly sad. Xu Zifeng originally thought that by blocking Zhang Jiang and the funds needed to form the action team, he would be able to make the other party bow his head and give in, but none of them thought that the pair of uncles and nephews would find another way and easily get the funds and space needed to form the action team by means of clearing out bandits, which was really surprising.
Xu Zifeng felt strange and not surprised, because his ability was limited, although he had always wanted to turn Chongqing Station into a hall of his own words, but most of the people in Chongqing Station looked at the people who had taken refuge in him, but they were only unconvinced. Zhang Jianghe is the deputy stationmaster, and he can be regarded as a big threat to Xu Zifeng, so he will deliberately want to deal with Zhang Jianghe. Now it seems that Zhang Jianghe is not afraid of Xu Zifeng's difficulties, because his ability and ability are not bad.
Xu Zifeng now regrets his act of secretly stumbling on Zhang Jianghe some time ago, but the stubbornness in his bones made him unable to bow to Zhang Jianghe, but in fact, Xu Zifeng has turned from his initial disdain to jealousy of Zhang Jianghe. Other people in the Chongqing station have also been talking about Xu Bald in private in the past few days, and some discerning people with ideas in their hearts have seen the potential of Zhang Jiang and the newly formed action team under his hands at this moment.
When Xu Bald's arrest was first publicized to the outside world, Wang Bingzhang and Hu Lan were the main players, so in this matter, the two of them were the biggest winners afterwards, but those who knew the inside story muttered to themselves in their hearts, this conclusion is not correct. If you only look at the gains and losses on the surface, Wang Bingzhang and Hu Lancheng are indeed the biggest gainers, but if you count the gains and losses in private, Tang Cheng and Zhang Jianghe have gained the most.
But even so, Wang Bingzhang and Hu Lancheng were also willing to do this, and according to some clues confessed by Xu Baldzi's subordinates, they started the idea of other bandits around Chongqing. Xu Bald is just a step for Tang Cheng to be eager to open up the situation in Chongqing, Zhang Jianghe's name has now been played, and the newly formed action team has also been pulled to the military camp for training, in the face of Wang Bingzhang and Hu Lancheng's invitation, Tang Cheng made it clear that he will no longer participate in the next encirclement and suppression of bandits around Chongqing, because he has more important things to do.
The suspicious woman who met Zhang Hanchun in private has been under close surveillance, although Ma Ye's subordinates did not find that the woman had any abnormalities, but Tang Cheng recognized that there was something wrong with the woman, and there was a big problem. "Uncle, I don't have anything important to do during this time, why don't I follow first, in case this woman really has a problem, it will be a good opportunity for us." In the face of Zhang Jianghe's doubts, Tang Cheng insisted very resolutely.
Tang Cheng's insistence also made Zhang Jianghe doubt his own judgment, but he knew that Tang Cheng had never been a person who liked to talk about it. In order to facilitate the surveillance of the woman, Ma Ye's subordinates used their connections and a large amount of money to finally buy a storefront diagonally opposite the woman's residence. The opening of a small shop is not noticeable, but no one knows that in this newly opened tea shop, all the people from Tang Cheng are from Tang City.
The war has not yet broken out, and Chongqing is not yet the capital of the future, so the cost of purchasing a store is not very high now, even if he has to give up this place after this mission, Tang Cheng is not worried that this store will eventually be smashed in his hands. Wang Bingzhang, who was commended by his superiors, strictly kept the promise he made, not only maintained the position of police chief of Tangcheng in accordance with the order of the Nanjing Police Department, but also transferred a group of veteran policemen from various sub-bureaus to Tangcheng.
With enough manpower in his hands, Tang Cheng will no longer hold back when he starts to do things, and with this group of old policemen, Tang Cheng's understanding of Chongqing has become more comprehensive, at least the kind of common-sense mistakes when he first came to Chongqing will not appear again. The advantage of approaching reconnaissance is that when facing emergencies, it will not appear panicked, just like at this moment, when the woman suddenly goes out, Tang Cheng has enough time and manpower to make strict arrangements.
