91. Selling guns (2)

After listening to Wang Xiaogang's words, Chen Xiu nodded without any hesitation, "Not bad." ”

At least, if you say what you said before, you can't slap yourself in the face.

"In fact, our organization sent me to be this liaison just to get a batch of equipment from Head Chen." Wang Xiaogang put down the teacup and looked at Chen Xiu with burning eyes, "A German-made Mauser rifle of 20 oceans is really the price of cabbage!" In the past, I couldn't even think about it! You must know that in the past, when the Nationalist Government purchased these rifles from Germany, they had to pay almost 100 oceans a piece, and many of them could not be used. ”

"Of course, if we sell guns to more backward countries, will you sell good guns?" Chen Xiu asked with a smile.

Wang Xiaogang shook his head, "This is the result of backwardness!" However, I believe that one day we will be strong! ”

"Not bad!"

"Our Mr. Zhou once said, study for the rise of China! Today, there are countless people with lofty ideals who have joined the revolution! Head Chen, it's better to ...... you" Wang Xiaogang's meaning, Chen Xiu naturally understood.

"Comrade Wang Xiaogang, I appreciate your group of people." Chen Xiu smiled, "But that doesn't mean that I will join you now, once I join you, do you know what will happen to my base in Liuba County?" ”

Wang Xiaogang was silent, indeed, it was impossible for Chairman Chiang to allow them to have such an arsenal. "I see."

Chen Xiu nodded.

"But actually, we can do this in secret." Wang Xiaogang spoke.

"Comrade Wang Xiaogang, can you guarantee that there are no Kuomintang spies in your ranks? Once there is, my identity is revealed, who is responsible for me? Chen Xiu shook his head, he still planned to think about himself, the current Kuomintang and the Communist Party are very good at playing espionage, of course, they can also keep it completely secret, but Chen Xiu doesn't want to pin his safety on others. What's more, if it is really exposed, it will not only be a security issue, this base, I'm afraid it will not continue to exist, if the base does not exist, what is the point of him coming here, "However, Comrade Wang Xiaogang should not be discouraged, as long as it is an anti-Japanese team, I will support it all, and there will be no bias, in order to show sincerity, I can send your department a batch of guns first, but there are not many bullets on my side, there is no way to ......"

"What?" Wang Xiaogang's mood can be described as ups and downs, "This ......"

"Because I don't have too many rifles here, I only have 3,000 rifles and 100,000 rounds of ammunition for the time being." Chen Xiu spoke, "In the future, if you want a gun, you need to buy it with money." ”

"Of course, of course!" Wang Xiaogang was instantly full of good feelings towards Chen Xiu, three thousand rifles, but half a month's output of the arsenal, you know, the arsenal can start production, it will only be more than a month. "Thank you so much!"

"It's nothing, it's all about fighting devils." Chen Xiu said helplessly, the Kuomintang suppressed the CCP before, the 25,000-mile Long March, they resisted the past alive, Chen Xiu was extremely admired, at least, he admired Mao Weiwei and Mr. Zhou and a few generals.

"I will report this matter today, and then I will discuss with Commander Chen how many rifles I want."

"Okay."

……

"This kid! Sure enough, it's a lover! A middle-aged man in a gray military uniform and glasses put down the telegram in his hand and laughed, "Okay, just accept this gift, and at the same time, if the price of the rifle is really 20 oceans, every month, we want 1,000 pieces, and matching bullets." ”

"Boss, 1,000 per month, that's 20,000 oceans, a year, it's 240,000! And that's not counting the money for bullets! You know, as long as you are in battle, the money for bullets is the big head! ”

"You're going to pick the door, if you don't invest, where will you get the harvest? Do you want the fighters to fight the devils? But if you don't have weapons, how can you fight devils? Yes? With weapons, let's fight devils, and we will have capture! What's more, bullets or something, our own arsenal can still be reloaded! ”

"Okay."

"No matter how much money is saved, this money can still be saved, and it must be saved!"

"Yes!"

"You can't really let the soldiers take knives and cut the devils! The human heart is full of flesh! ”

"Huh."

……

"You mean, let Little Tiger go to the front with a regiment?" Di Feng's voice suddenly rose.

"Well, third uncle, you also go with you, bring your father-in-law, bring it back." Chen Xiu nodded, there was no wave in his eyes, "Over there in Xuzhou, it should take a few more months, and it can be considered too late." Now in Curry, there should still be 6,000 guns on the books, and more than 20,000 off-books. If you have fewer bullets, only 200,000 rounds, take them with you. ”

Di Feng shook his head, "No, there are too few bullets, and your gun can't shoot too much at once, do you understand what I mean?" What's more, the situation on the battlefield is not something you can say with a batch of guns. We have no way to make up for the advantage in firepower against the devil for the time being, and the more you send, the more likely you are to lose your gun on the battlefield. ”

"Then you can't afford not to send it?"

"10,000 rounds, 200,000 rounds, and all the machine guns on the books." Di Feng said, "This way, it will not be noticeable. If you want to develop the country's industry, the premise is that you can develop it in peace and stability. Now you, even if you have soldiers in your hands, you are still too weak. The government will not allow a country's industry to be in the hands of one people. ”

Chen Xiu nodded, "It's true that I'm too anxious. ”

He also knew that once he showed any bad signs, he would be quickly snuffed out by the chairman, for example, this time, he knew that Chairman Jiang would definitely be angry with him, but he had to do this. He couldn't let these people lie on the blood of this ill-fated country and nation.

"Then let's do what the third uncle wants."

"Hmm." Di Feng nodded, "It's just a mess, me and Little Tiger, go and go in person to bring the eldest brother back." ”

"Well, after all, my father-in-law is missing an arm, and he is fine in the army, but if he is alone, it will be very dangerous."

"Yes."

……

February 1, 1938, the second day of the Lunar New Year.

A regiment, almost more than 2,000 people, has been assembled. The guns and equipment have also been packed.

Horse-drawn carts and donkey carts are neatly organized.

"Have a nice trip and come back safely." Chen Xiu hugged Tang Ning, "If your father-in-law refuses to come back, you will tie him back." ”

"Okay." Tang Ning came out of Chen Xiu's arms and looked at Chen Xiu, "You have to take care of yourself, you must eat on time, my third uncle and I are gone, I have already explained to Xiaoliu, don't be so busy that you don't care about your body." ”

"I know."

Then, Tang Ning immediately fell into Chen Xiu's arms and kept up with the large army that had been slowly moving forward.
