Chapter 65
"Brother-in-law, I'm coming to see you" Early in the morning, Zhao Zhi took the dog to Wang Dakui's station, just in time for Wang Dakui to have breakfast. "Xiao Zhi, come and eat with me" Wang Dakui beckoned Zhao Zhi and motioned for the orderly to add another pair of chopsticks. Zhao Zhi didn't shirk and accompanied Wang Dakui to breakfast.
"Xiaozhi, why did you think about coming to me today?" Wang Dakui, who was wiping his mouth, looked at Zhao Zhi suspiciously, his brother-in-law has been living a good life recently, and it seems that Yu Feng has also made a lot of money in the black market with Zhao Zhi.
"Yesterday, when my military quartermaster counted things, dozens of grenades were cleared, and it was not of much use to put them in my place, so I brought them to my brother-in-law, all of them we brought back from India, real British goods" Zhao Zhi took a grenade from his waist and handed it to Wang Dakui.
"There used to be some British grenades in my regiment, but they were not easy to replenish, and they were gone when they ran out. How many do you have? ”
"I can bring back as many as a dozen people, only 60 pieces, and I brought them all for you, in the jeep outside."
"Your kid has been doing well lately, I am the head of the regiment and only have one jeep, you kid is a small captain who guards the warehouse, and there are two jeeps, it's too unusual, give me one" Wang Dakui looked at Zhao Zhi half-truthfully.
"If you want to take it, what are you polite to our own family" Zhao Zhi looked at Wang Dakui with disdain. This brother-in-law who picks the door, runs a restaurant at home, and every day he is like using a rake to make money, why is he still so picky.
"I won't take advantage of you in vain, you say, what do you want?" Wang Dakui held up a big black face and tempted Zhao Zhi with a smile.
"Give me some bullets, and I want to neutralize the rifle rounds. As you know, the office gave me some guns, but there were so few bullets, only a few dozen per person."
Wang Dakui looked at Zhao Zhi, "Just the bullet, don't want anything else" Zhao Zhi scratched his head and asked, "Then what else do you have?" Wang Dakui was so angry with his brother-in-law that he didn't know what he wanted when he asked for something, and asked what the person who gave it was.
"I'll give you ten more bags of rice and two boxes of canned food, how about it?" Wang Dakui is obviously playing tricks on Zhao Zhi, these things are not worth mentioning at all compared to jeeps. Zhao Zhi agreed to Lisuo, but he only added more than a dozen pairs of military boots. After returning to the compound in the evening, the rich man heard that Zhao Zhi had exchanged the jeep for ten bags of rice and two boxes of canned food, and he was angry and only scolded Zhao Zhi for being a loser, "Do you know how much the jeep is worth in the black market?" 5 yellow croaker, how much rice and canned food do you have to buy?" the rich man stuffed a piece of beef into his mouth in distress, and chewed angrily.
"Didn't Catherine say that they still have a few jeeps at the airport that are going to be scrapped? Old cannon, you can get it all back tomorrow. I think the Garand rifle on their airport guard is not bad, you can try to see if you can get a few back" Zhao Zhi took the bowl and leaned over to the old cannon, muttering quietly, like two old rich men who shared the spoils.
"Get out of the way, do you think that the airport is opened for you alone, and you can take whatever you want?" The old cannon held the bowl and squinted at Zhao Zhi, his face full of anger and disdain.
"Come, come, I'll tell you" Zhao Zhi put his arm around the old cannon, and the two squatted in the corner with the bowl, not knowing what they were muttering. I saw that the old cannon stood up suddenly, and exclaimed, "My master, no, no, you better let me go." I'm a daughter-in-law now, and I'm long gone to do that kind of thing."
Seeing the surprised gazes of everyone eating, Zhao Zhi pulled the old cannon and continued to squat, "What are you talking about, Lao Tzu didn't force you to die." I know that the foreign lady in charge of the ordnance at the airport likes you very much, just let you ask, not let you sell yourself, what are you afraid of?"
Zhao Zhi said that the foreign girl is Captain Jones who is in charge of ordnance in the airport, and she is a coquettish American woman, she likes the old cannon to be a stupid and black guy, usually the old cannon goes to the airport to mess around, and she often receives Jones's flattery. If you want to get a gun out of the airport, you have to get this Jones first. Zhao Zhi looked at the old cannon who had been shaking his head, and gritted his teeth, "If this thing is done, Lao Tzu will go to my brother-in-law to get you a cannon back, what's going on?" Do you want to do it? ”
As soon as he heard that there was a cannon, the old cannon came to his senses, and immediately nodded and agreed. The old artillery, which has always claimed to be an artillery, has never touched the cannon since it entered Burma, and even if the mortar of the Japanese army was captured, it was thrown away by Zhao Zhi's order. Lao Pao has always wanted to have a cannon, and now that Zhao Zhi has agreed, can Lao Pao not nod.
Anyway, no matter what means the old cannon used, the next night, the old cannon really got back three jeeps and 5 Garand rifles. Uncle Guo grabbed a half-new Garand, looked at it for a long time, snapped, and hit a magazine, "This dog's day is a good gun, the firepower is fierce, the range and accuracy are also good" The old gun moved a few boxes from the car, which were full of bullets and magazines, "and got back 3,000 rounds of ammunition, the airport said that a batch of new guns will arrive in a few days, and then we will get a few more and bullets"
"This thing is done well" Zhao Zhi threw an apple to the old cannon as a token of consolation. "Don't panic, I've got my stuff back, what did you promise me? When will you take it? The old cannon stopped Zhao Zhi's hand holding the gun, and asked Zhao Zhi eagerly, looking like he was afraid of a long night and a lot of dreams.
"Lao Tzu has already got it back, in the backyard, you can see for yourself" Zhao Zhi coaxed away the old cannon, and Uncle Guo carried the gun on his back, and rushed to the mountain to test the gun. As soon as the jeep drove away, I heard the roar of the old cannon from the backyard, "The little white face of the deflated calf, you just use the earthen cannon to coax Lao Tzu, damn, this is still the Qing Dynasty, bullying Lao Tzu doesn't know how to read?" When the old cannon carrying half a brick came to the front yard, Zhao Zhi and Uncle Guo had already disappeared, and the angry old cannon shouted to wait for Zhao Zhi to clean up at night.
As a result, in the evening, when everyone wanted to watch Lao Pao clean up Zhao Zhi, they didn't know what Zhao Zhi and Lao Pao said, and the two of them hooked their shoulders like one person, which made the guys who were ready to watch the excitement very disappointed. Every day white rice and large pieces of meat are fed, and rotten people are idle all day long, but there is really nothing in the warehouse, and the door is locked, so there is no need to care at all. So the guys who have nothing to do all day long except eat and sleep, Zhao Zhi basically goes into the mountains to hunt every day, like the cook Wang Dabao is already fat, and he is tired and panting when he walks.
Just when Wang Dabao was dozing off under the tree outside the door after lunch, a Wesley jeep stopped in front of Wang Dabao's recliner and threw Wang Dabao with dust. Wang Dabao patted the dust on his body and secretly looked at the major officer who was questioning. The major officer didn't mean to get out of the car at all, just covered his nose with a white glove, and continued in an arrogant tone, "I am the operational staff officer of the New First Army, and I call Zhao Zhi to come out" Wang Dabao hurriedly saluted and slowly entered the courtyard.
", what's that? Don't even say a word. It seems that Yuanzhi is right, this Zhao Zhi has always been arrogant, and the people under him are the same. I'll give you a dismount in a moment, and kill your majesty" The major officer sat in the jeep, secretly thinking in his heart.
The courtyard door opened, and out came a few female soldiers, who had been out of the jungle for several months, and whose hair had grown. Usually in the courtyard, there are no outsiders coming, so they all wear loose hair and no military hats. "Sir, I don't know what business you have?" Yuan Qingqing, who took the lead, walked up to the jeep and asked the major.
The major looked at Yuan Qingqing with a beautiful face obsessively, and secretly compared Yuan Qingqing with his own mother-in-law, and the more he compared, the more he felt that his mother-in-law was an ugly ghost. Yuan Qingqing saw that the major was in a daze, so he couldn't help but laugh, covered his mouth and laughed. As soon as the major saw Yuan Qingqing's smiling little touch, the monkey immediately got out of the jeep and reached out to pull Yuan Qingqing's hand.
"Sir, please respect yourself" Yuan Qingqing flashed the major's hand and stood aside with a calm face. "Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, what is this captain called?" The major's face was pale, and he continued to approach Yuan Qingqing reluctantly, forcing Yuan Qingqing to the wall. Just as Yuan Qingqing was about to pull out his pistol, a hand was placed on the major's shoulder, pinching the shoulder blade hard, and turning the major in a forced direction.
"Let go, let go," the major snorted in pain, looking at the person who was pinching him with a pale face. It was a guy with a short five-figure figure, with a simple smile on his round face, and an American military uniform without military rank, which was stained with oil. "Who are you?" Seeing that the other party let go of himself, the major also got out of the car, and his courage came back a little, and he pretended to be bold and asked the guy opposite.
Yuan Qingqing, who escaped from danger, pulled the wrench and stood far away from the major, "He is an overseas Chinese in Burma, he has a bad voice, and he can't speak" When the major heard that he was just a common man, he waved his hand, "Arrested, attack the officer" "Wait, he is now a maintenance technician of the Flying Tigers, if you want to arrest him, please go to the Americans first" Yuan Qingqing protected the wrench behind him and glared at the soldiers who wanted to grab the wrench.
"Who are you fooling? He deserves it. Arrest me, who dares to stop and arrest together" The major looked at Yuan Qingqing in a daze, as if he had already eaten Yuan Qingqing. "NONO, what are you doing? Who are you? "A couple of yellow-haired American soldiers ran out of the yard and stopped the soldiers who were about to grab the wrench.
"I'm Second Lieutenant Catherine of the Flying Tigers, and this is our Flying Team's maintenance technician. Who are you? Why arrest him? "The leader was a tall blonde female officer, who asked the major in a stumbling Chinese language." I am Jiang Cheng, the combat staff officer of the New First Army stationed in India, he attacked the officer, I want to arrest him" Catherine pursed her lips and smiled, "Mr. Major, I think you are mistaken, he is not your soldier, he is a maintenance technician hired by our Flying Tigers, it seems that it is not under your jurisdiction"
"Catherine, don't listen to him, he just wanted to take advantage of Sister Qingqing, the wrench is just to help, isn't this person a good bird?" Zhao Yan glared at Jiang Cheng angrily, and kept talking.
"Is it the same guy we met in the restaurant last time who is not a good bird, he is also a scoundrel" Catherine asked Zhao Yan loudly pretending not to understand, including the soldiers brought by Jiang Cheng could hear it clearly.
