Chapter 340: Far Away

Three days later, an engineering force of more than 500 people marched into Butterfly Valley.

"Report, a group of 567 people from the U.S. Army Engineer Battalion arrived at the base, and this is Major Jerry." Wang Liang led the US major into Chen Fei's headquarters and shouted.

"Oh, hard work." Chen Fei got up and said.

Major Jerry saluted Chen Fei, and Chen Fei returned the salute.

"Sit, I just saw you empty-handed, what are the materials for your construction of the oil pipeline?" Chen Fei asked.

"Report, General, all the oil pipes needed have been shipped from the United States." Jerry said.

"Ah, the United States came over, so far, sent by plane, this ······ This ······ How much does it cost? Chen Fei said in surprise.

Seeing Chen Fei's surprised look, Major Jerry immediately said proudly: "General, these are pediatrics, and the oil pipeline will be transported to the Pacific Ocean by warship, and then received by aircraft carrier, and then airdropped here by transport plane." ”

"Oh······ It's really damn generous, okay, Wang Liang, take the American brothers to rest first, by the way, the wheat detachment just left their camp and gave the engineer camp to live, by the way, pay attention to let Deputy Division Commander Zhu arrange guards. Chen Fei said.

"Yes." Wang Liang replied and left with Jerry.

When Chen Fei saw them leaving, he said to Sanmao: "Sanmao, come here." ”

"Commander." Sanmao Road.

"Tell Commander Huang of the Engineer Corps to get closer to these Americans and learn more about their techniques, understand?" Chen Fei said.

"Understood, don't worry, Master, I'll talk to Lao Huang." Sanmao replied.

Chen Fei nodded, and Sanmao left immediately.

The warship transported the oil pipeline to the Pacific Ocean and then airdropped it here by plane, these words made Chen Fei both admire and envy.

"We are too far behind the United States, and we don't know when we will be able to catch up." Chen Fei said softly.

"Report!" Zhu San came in and said.

"Oh, sit, what's the matter?" Chen Fei said.

"The brother who stayed in India just now called and said that Miss Kong Er had arrived." Zhu Sandao.

"Huh? This tomboy actually got to come. Chen Fei said in surprise.

"Miss Kong Er's coming here is nothing more than a business matter, I heard that she also had contact with Chennault, but Chennault ignored her." Zhu Sandao.

"Well, by the way, has Fang Min passed?" Chen Fei said.

"It's gone, but it's going to be two days before we get to India." Zhu Sandao.

Chen Fei nodded.

"Division commander, if you don't want to see her, just avoid it, this is a war zone, and there are so many excuses." Zhu Sandao.

Chen Fei shook his hand and said: "I still have to see her, I want to see what kind of moth she is going to make, this money has to be earned, we have to fight back to China after all, there are too many places to use money." ”

"In this case, I went to greet it, which also shows that we want to cooperate." Zhu Sandao.

"No, she's not an ordinary person, she doesn't play cards according to common sense, let's just wait here." Chen Fei said.

Zhu San nodded, indicating that he understood.

Miss Kong Er likes money and business, but it is really not her to let her come all the way to Savage Mountain like this, and to endure this hardship.

Five days later, Miss Kong Er arrived at the outskirts of the base.

Chen Fei took Sanmao and Wang Liang out of the base to greet Miss Kong Er.

"What about people? What about the second lady? Sanmao shouted at the convoy that came over.

"In ······ In ······ This, here. A coachman replied loudly.

Sanmao stepped forward and saw seven or eight black-clothed people surrounding an ox cart, "You are the second young lady's guard, right?" Sanmao said.

"Yes, yes, Major, our young lady is sick, can you call the doctor to come over and take a look." A man in black replied.

"Sick, what's sick, okay, come with me, I'll call a doctor." Sanmao replied.

Sanmao came over with this convoy, "Is the second miss here?" Chen Fei said.

"Yes, yes, said to be sick, in the ox cart." Sanmao pointed with his hand as he spoke.

Chen Fei immediately said to Wang Liang: "Arrange these people, Chen Fang, the second miss will be handed over to you." ”

Chen Fei left after arranging, Miss Kong Er was a woman after all, and it was inconvenient for Chen Fei to come forward to check.

"It's so troublesome, I don't even want my life for a little money." Chen Fei said to himself as he walked.

Miss Kong Er was sent to the infirmary, and the U.S. military doctor and Dr. Sun came to diagnose at the same time.

After a while, Doctor Sun came to find Chen Fei.

"Report!" Doctor Sun came to the headquarters to find Chen Fei.

"Come in, what's wrong with this eldest lady?" Chen Fei asked.

Doctor Sun smiled bitterly and said, "I have malaria, but it's okay, I've already been injected." ”

"! It's okay, otherwise I don't know how to explain to Chongqing, send someone to keep an eye on it 24 hours a day, don't have any more accidents, this great god, we have to serve it. Chen Fei said.

"Okay, I see." Doctor Sun replied, turned around and left.

Chen Fei was thinking about whether to contact Chongqing, when the old steamed bun came in and said, "I heard that Miss Kong Er has arrived?" ”

"Well, I'm still sick, in the infirmary, damn, it's really troublesome." Chen Fei said depressedly.

"What then? Do you want to send it back? The old steamed bun said.

"Doctor Sun said that it is not a big problem, it is so hard to come here, and it is not appropriate to send it away like this, let's take a look." Chen Fei replied.

"It's worth money." Old steamed bun said.

Chen Fei shook his head and smiled bitterly.

"Is there anything wrong with you?" Chen Fei raised his head and said.

"Well, when Merrill left, he left behind a batch of weapons and ammunition, as well as a lot of medicine and food, and Lao Zhangtou meant that since Lao Mai didn't take it, then we would use it." Old steamed bun said.

"Oh, what?" Chen Fei said.

"Seven Browning heavy machine guns, more than a dozen boxes of grenades, six mortars, a lot of medicines, are being counted, their camp is given to American soldiers, these things are ······" The old steamed bun looked at Chen Feidao.

"Oh, then let Lao Zhangtou put it away, the U.S. military is not short of this thing, and it is estimated that the Mai detachment can't take it." Chen Fei said.

"Well, you just nod your head." The old steamed bun replied.

Savage Mountain is a tropical monsoon climate, because it is located on the windward slope of the southwest monsoon, on the one hand, there is more precipitation, on the other hand, it is less affected by cold air, hot and humid, so that the soldiers in the mountains can not tell whether it is spring or winter, and the continuous combat between the expeditionary force and the US army in the mountains can only be said to be miserable.

Miss Kong Er woke up and felt much better, although her head was still a little dizzy, her body was not shaking, at least she could feel that she was recovering.

"Second Miss, you're awake." A black-clad guard came over and said.

"Uh-huh, I'm hungry." Miss Kong Er said.

"Oh, okay, okay, I'll go get porridge right away, right away." The guard said.

"Is the second miss better?" Chen Fang came in and said.

"Well, it's much better, is this the base of the independent division? How long did I sleep? Miss Kong Er said.

"Yes, it's an independent division base, you've slept for three days, you eat something first, and I'll go and inform the division commander immediately." Chen Fei said happily.

Miss Kong Er nodded, she seemed to have gone through hell and finally came back.

At this time, Chen Fei was busy directing the soldiers and the US army engineer battalion to collect the oil pipeline that had just been airdropped.

"Division commander. Miss Kong Er woke up. Chen Fang ran in and said to Chen Fei.

"Oh, this eldest lady has finally woken up, scared me to death, go, go and see." Chen Fei said as he went to the infirmary.

Chen Fei rushed to the infirmary, and Miss Kong Er was drinking white porridge.

"How? It's nice here. Chen Fei said with a smile.

"The turtle son's almost killed Lao Tzu." Miss Kong Er replied with a wry smile.

"You, what a ······ I don't even know what to say about you, Second Miss, this is a war zone, or a primeval forest, it's not necessarily a devil who wants to kill you, it's full of murderous opportunities here, if you don't pay attention, you don't know how to die. Chen Fei said.

"You think I'm thinking so, some things have to be done." Miss Kong Er glanced at Chen Fei and said.

These words made Chen Fei stunned.

"What do you mean?" Chen Fei was puzzled.

"Chongqing is short of everything now, if I can bring back some medicine and food, then I will be the savior of the people, can you understand?" Miss Kong Er looked at Chen Feidao.

Chen Fei immediately said: "It's great enough, to be honest, or I'll send you back tomorrow." ”

Miss Kong Er smiled awkwardly and said, "Your principal called me here, medicine, food, guns and ammunition, how much can I make." ”

When Chen Fei heard this, he said, "Then you don't need to come over!" ”

"Then I also want to make some money, wealth and danger are sought, everyone understands this truth." Miss Kong Er finished drinking the porridge and put down the bowl.

Chen Fei raised his hand and pointed at Miss Kong Er, who really wanted to scold her, but he couldn't say the words when he came to his lips.

"Don't point fingers, I'm here, let's talk about business quickly, I'll leave this hellish place after that, I always feel breathless." Miss Kong Er said.

"Damn, I'm out of the money, okay, I'll ask the old steamed bun to talk to you later, and when you come, take care of your body before leaving, it's not bad for a day or two." Chen Feidao,

"Listen to you." Miss Kong Er replied.

Chen Fei smiled and turned to go out.

Talking about this kind of business is not a day to negotiate, first of all, transportation is a big problem, after all, the plane is not Chen Fei's own home, and the materials have to be sent to Chongqing or Chengdu in the rear, although not as many cars as the last time to do tungsten gold business, but ten big trucks still need it, the escort work along the way, the smell of all kinds of demons and monsters is also a big problem.

No matter how big the backstage is, you can't stand up to people who are desperate for money, and at the same time, you have to consider the impact of something going wrong.

Lao Mantou and Lao Zhangtou explained and analyzed Miss Kong Er one by one, which is nothing more than to maximize the interests of independent teachers.

Miss Kong Er was really dazed by the old steamed bun, if she was in Chongqing, this business would definitely be an independent teacher, but it would be different here.

"Second Miss, let's get this thing out, and we have to arrange a plane, but when we get to China, that's your business." Old Zhang Tou said.

"Don't worry, when you arrive in Yunnan, everything is with me." Miss Kong Er said.

Old Mantou and Old Zhangtou glanced at each other.

"Second Miss, let me ask more, how to arrange the materials to Chongqing?" The old steamed bun asked.

"Half of it is for the guardhouse, and half is for the black market, and now American goods are in demand in the Southwest." Miss Kong Er said.

"Oh·······" The old steamed bun is meaningful and authentic.

The two looked at each other again, thinking to themselves, if it weren't as expected by the division commander, Chairman Jiang asked the second lady to come to Savage Mountain for this transaction, it seemed that the commission was really exhausted.

In the evening, Chen Fei listened to the reports of Lao Mantou and Lao Zhangtou.

"Four-six open ·······" Chen Fei read softly.

"Let's six, this is a good deal, teacher, Miss Kong Er said that the gold transaction will never be in arrears, this time she brought thirty big yellow croaker, you can give it to us first." Old Zhang Tou said.

Chen Fei looked at the cigarette in his hand and didn't make a sound. The old steamed bun looked at Chen Fei and thought about it.

After a while, Chen Fei raised his head and said: "It's still the four of us, there are some things we can only do, and we have to suffer, as soon as the goods arrive in Chongqing, a large number of them will be distributed, and then the Americans will come to me to ask for guilt, Lao Zhangtou, how many goods have you saved?" ”

"Hehe, a lot, enough to equip two divisions." The old man smiled.

"Huh? So much that Americans don't doubt it? Chen Fei said.

"What you accumulate little by little is a good thing." Old Zhang Tou said.

"Damn, it's a sin to call a giant rat to manage the warehouse, but you have made a great contribution to the arrival of the goods in Chongqing." Chen Fei scolded with a smile.

"Hehe, as long as we can exchange it for the big yellow croaker, with the money, when we return to China, it can be regarded as a return to our hometown." The old man smiled.

"Okay, that's it, the goods will be sent to Yunnan safely in batches, Chennault's side, you have to communicate with the old steamed buns in person, without him, we talked for a long time and talked nonsense, talk more about our difficulties." Chen Fei said.

"What's so difficult about him, the empty plane went to Yunnan to pull the soldiers, let's just stop by." Old Zhang Tou said.

"What are you talking nonsense, this is before, and now Fang Min is coming to report, and the materials on the airfield are also piled up, but they are all old goods from the US military." Old steamed bun said.

"If you have old goods, you can count it as an American kindness." Chen Fei said.

"Report!" Chen Fang came in with the commander of the U.S. Army Engineer Battalion.

"Come in, you go." Chen Fei said. The old steamed bun and the old Zhang got up and left.

"General, the command is calling, tomorrow will start laying the oil pipeline." Major Jerry said.

When Chen Fei heard this, he got up and thought about it: "Can you stay for a few more days, there is a fierce battle in the Hukang River valley area, and then start the operation when you take it, okay?" ”

"No, No, No, general, the order of the headquarters, we have to carry it out, besides, it is only a matter of time before we take the Hukang Valley, we can slowly start laying it." Jerry said immediately.

When Chen Fei heard this, he thought about it again, it's okay, he can only control the progress.

"Okay, can I arrange for Deputy Division Commander Zhu to take a regiment to act with you?" Chen Fei said.

Jerry said: "General, one regiment is not enough, one regiment can only be on guard, and cannot clear the perimeter of the road through which the pipeline passes. ”

Chen Fei immediately frowned, "Major, the oil pipeline started in our control area, if one regiment is not enough, then I am afraid that the troops will not be enough." ”

"There are so many soldiers in the independent division, my reasonable arrangement must be enough, but I want to establish a safe transit station, which needs to be absolutely safe and reliable." Jerry said.

Chen Fei thought to himself, since you will make reasonable arrangements, then it is up to you, don't be short of troops at that time, and talk nonsense with me again.
