Chapter Fifty-Eight: The Gui Family and Lao Jiang
THE HUGE LETHALITY OF THE 150MM HOWITZER QUIETED EVERYONE, AND FOR A WHILE IT DIDN'T LOOK LIKE A BATTLEFIELD.
At this moment, the silence seemed to be a little strange, and only the sound of each other's breathing could be heard.
The era of aircraft and artillery changed all forms of warfare in the world.
Individual prowess in the face of the spread of thermal weapons has also become a joke!
Although only one of the four shells fell into the battlefield, its huge power was displayed to make everyone on the battlefield afraid.
Dozens of living people completely disappeared in front of everyone, turning into a piece of minced meat.
Such a scene, no matter who it is, will be afraid.
They are people, not machines.
If it is a person, there will be joy, anger and sorrow, if it is a person, there will be fear of the unknown, and if it is a person, there will be fear.
The power of the 150 howitzers is too great, and the loud sound can pull them back to reality from the crazy rhythm.
YIN WEIGANG WAS ALSO WOKEN UP BY THE 150MM HOWITZER, HE DIDN'T EXPECT THAT THE SMALL CAUSEWAY MOUNTAIN WOULD HAVE SUCH A LETHAL HEAVY ARTILLERY.
This time, I am afraid that I will end up without a problem.
Since people even have heavy artillery, the backers behind must have a big background.
The arms embargo imposed by the great powers on the Republic of China was similar to that of later generations, and heavy artillery was similar to that of aircraft carriers in later generations, which belonged to the embargo.
The current Republic of China is the cow of the great powers, and what the great powers need is a chaotic Republic of China, and they will not kindly let any weapons that pose a threat to them appear in China.
NOW THAT THERE ARE SO MANY WARLORDS, WHO WILL HAVE A 150MM CANNON IN THEIR HANDS?
Anyway, Yin Weigang hasn't encountered it!
After thinking about it for a while, he immediately gave the order to retreat.
The military is lost, and it doesn't make much sense to fight any longer, so let's talk to the two commanders and take a look.
Li and Bai were very surprised to receive Yin Weigang's telegram, but they would not have thought that Tongluo Mountain was so strong.
However, it was still a little reluctant to let them give up like this, and they mobilized the troops, but they spent a lot of money, and now they don't have meat to eat, but they are in a commotion.
Not to mention offending Little Japan, but also offending the people behind Causeway Mountain, the price is too great.
Li Zongren smiled bitterly and said to Bai Chongxi: "Old Bai, what do you think of this Causeway Mountain!" It's not to lose, it's not to lose, it looks like we're going to return in vain like Xia Douyin. ”
Bai Chongxi shook his head and smiled: "Brother Delin, I don't see it that way, we are just asking for money, since we know that this piece of meat is not delicious, then why don't we go and talk to those bandits!" Maybe there's an unexpected bonus, right? The bald guy has already sent Chen Bui south, and I think they will soon recruit the bandits from Tongluo Mountain, so we don't have much time! ”
The two discussed for a while and gave Yin Weigang a new order to seize the time to negotiate and strive for the greatest benefits.
Seeing the retreat of the Gui family, Wei Yang's heart was relieved, knowing that things were about to take a turn for the better.
There are so many wolves, how can it be possible for the Gui family to come out on top!
I believe that it will not be long before the news of the mega gold mine will spread.
This little Japan will keep it secret, but Wei Yang will not keep it secret.
Throughout the night, Wei Yang was busy checking the losses of the various brigades.
Although the two sides did not exchange fire for a long time, Causeway suffered 116 casualties, 39 seriously wounded, and 165 lightly wounded.
Such losses are still based on the defenders, if it were not for the power of the system artillery, with the two divisions of the Gui system, they could also knock down Tongluo Mountain with human lives.
Not long after the sun rose, the envoy of the Katsura family went up the mountain.
Although Wei Yang hated the Gui family very much in his heart, he also had to meet the envoy of the Gui family, who called the people to have a big fist now.
They want gold, and they want a ton of spot gold when they open their mouths, and the gold mine also wants to account for 50% of the shares.
Hearing the words of the Gui envoy, Wei Yang sneered, he beat his own copycat, and he still wanted a ton of gold and fifty percent of the shares?
The price they offered was to co-opt themselves and give themselves a regiment.
That's too low!
Wei Yang didn't want to cooperate with the Gui family for the time being, the two old foxes, he was messing with them now, and what he left behind in the end must be bones.
The Gui Department gave Wei Yang a day to think about it, and the price given by Wei Yang was to pay one ton of spot gold and provide another 500 kilograms of gold to the Gui Department every year, and the Gui Department must ensure all its interests.
The answer code given by Wei Yang made Li and Bai a little surprised, this is a lot of money, at least they can raise one more division of troops.
shook hands with the Gui family and made peace, which was a great joy for all.
Wei Yang bought time and a backer, and the Gui family got a stable source of funds.
As soon as the gold was given, the Gui family also retreated happily.
After a few days of peace, the mountain returned to normal, and the wolves who were ready to grab meat at the bottom of the mountain also retreated.
The strength shown by Causeway Mountain made them helpless, the two divisions of the Gui Department did not defeat Causeway Mountain, can they qualify!
Today, I reported that a senior official of the central government came, and he had his friend Guo Shigang and his father-in-law Chen Hanshen.
Hearing the report, Wei Yang had to open the mountain gate to greet him.
The person who came was fully prepared, and even inquired about his father-in-law, and the effort spent on himself was really big.
There were a lot of people in their group, led by a relatively thin middle-aged man, who gave people the first impression that he was very angry and good-looking.
Guo Shigang walked up with a smile and said, "Brother Wei, congratulations." This is Mr. Chen Bui from the central government, and he is here to give you an official title. ”
Wei Yang listened slightly, isn't this Jiang Guangtou's henchman and think tank?
When I saw this person, I was a little puzzled.
In later generations, this is a very famous person, how can the bald head be willing to send him here,
Of course, Wei Yang didn't know that the current Chen Bui was not Jiang Guangtou's chief think tank, and he had only recently taken refuge in Jiang Guangtou.
In order to welcome, Wei Yang still shook hands with him politely.
When Chen Hanshen saw Wei Yang, his face was full of complexity, and he didn't know what kind of mentality to use to deal with Wei Yang.
But he's also a smart man, and he still knows what to do about it.
Fortunately, Wei Yang respectfully called his father-in-law on Chen Shuyue's face, and called Chen Hanshen with a smile.
Accidentally, Wei Yang saw a somewhat familiar face, in his thirties, and he was still a little handsome.
Wei Yang asked him suspiciously, "What is this brother's name?" ”
Dai Li didn't know that Wei Yang would ask him, he was not the later emperor of the military now, but just a small person next to Jiang Guangtou, who was living a very unsatisfactory life, and this time he took the initiative to ask Ying to be Chen Bui's bodyguard.
It could be seen that Wei Yang took the initiative to make friends with him, and Dai Li listened to it and said politely: "The surname is Dai Mingli, Wei is polite." ”
Wei Yang's heart is full again, why are the big names starting to get together now?
The group did not walk fast, and Chen Bui and Dai Li looked at these people standing guard and patrolling from time to time.
Whether it was Chen Bui or Dai Li, they were all a little surprised by the strength shown by Causeway Mountain.
In their opinion, these personnel who stand guard and patrol are all elite divisions, and they are worthy of being strongmen who can fight with the Gui family.
Especially this handsome black military uniform that they have never seen before, it looks very good.
After everyone sat down, Chen Bui asked casually, "How many people are there on Mr. Wei's mountain now?" ”
Wei Yang knew what he meant, and he would be treated according to his strength.
Wei Yang said with a smile: "There are not many people on the mountain, less than 10,000 people. ”
Chen Bui was stunned when he heard this, and replied: "How can there be so many." ”
Wei Yang smiled bitterly and said, "There are more people on the mountain, so it's not easy to raise." ”
Chen Bui thought for a moment and said, "I heard Director Guo say that you want to be an official in Yuezhou?" ”
Wei Yang glanced at Guo Shigang and said, "Being poor in the mountains is not easy. There is no future as a bandit, so I want to be an official. ”
Chen Bui nodded with a smile and said: "Heroes don't ask about their births, it's good that Mr. Wei has such a mind, and with Mr. Wei's ability to be an official, he will definitely be able to contribute to the country and the people." I don't know what kind of official Mr. Wei wants to be, and where does he want to serve? ”
Wei Yang knew that these were polite words, and smiled at Chen Bui: "I'm just a bastard, I like places close to home, and I listen to the arrangements of the party-state." ”
Chen Bui smiled, nodded and said, "I brought a letter of appointment for the chairman here, and asked Mr. Wei to be the commander of the Yuezhou security, what does Mr. Wei think?" ”
Wei Yang said with a smile: "I also want to do things for the people, as long as the chairman believes in me, I will be this official." ”
Chen Bui was overjoyed when he heard this, since Wei Yang agreed to be the commander of the security guard, it would be easy to talk about the rest of the matter, so he said: "Mr. Wei, it is a good thing to be able to contribute to the country, and I welcome you to join on behalf of the party-state and the chairman." ”
After speaking, he took out the prepared letter of appointment and announced loudly: "Comrade Wei Yang is now appointed as the commander of the 25th Brigade of the National Revolution, and also the commander of the Yuezhou security, with the rank of major general!" In January of the 17th year of the Republic of China, Jiang Zhongzheng. ”
