Chapter 13 Another Grain Merchant

"All charge!" Ichiro Aso raised his command knife and led his subordinates to rush to the bridge like crazy! Even though there was a dense rain of bullets on the opposite side, the Japanese spies were still fearless of death and rushed forward with their rifles and shouting slogans! They're not charging, they're totally committing suicide!

Of course, for the heroic feat of the devil to kill himself, our soldiers do not mind fulfilling them. Machine guns and rifles were fired together, and bullets rained down on the bridgehead. The suspension bridge of dozens of meters is not too long, Aso Ichiro shouted slogans, and the devils ran forward desperately, although people kept being shot and fell under the bridge, but there were still people rushing to the shore one after another.

As soon as he stepped on the ground, the devil ran away like a bird that had flown out of a cage. Our soldiers beat their buttocks with their guns, and the devils who only cared about fleeing for their lives did not return fire, and threw their rifles and ran in all directions.

No one thought that the devil would abandon his gun and run away, and it would be too late to surround and annihilate him. Murat ran onto the bridge and saw a few devils fleeing into the woods without a trace, and led the soldiers to chase after him, except for one wounded and not dead underground, the rest of the early run was gone.

The wounded devil was still about to die and struggle, and our scouts went up and shot him away. The battle is over, and the results are counted. Of the 100 new rifles, only sixty-two were recovered, and the rest all fell into the cliffs under the bridge.

When eating at the county restaurant, Murati and Aso Ichiro sat face to face. Section Chief Aso was patronizing and section chief Zhang at that time and almost didn't pay attention to the other diners, but Murati met Aso Taijun quite carefully, and he remembered what Aso Ichiro looked like. If you can't say anything, you have to face all the corpses of the devils one by one, and see if there is the real body of Aso's section chief.

I checked it twice next to each other, but no, there was no Aso Ichiro in the corpse! Then there are only two possibilities, either Aso Ichiro fell off the cliff after he died, and the other possibility is that this thing took advantage of the chaos to escape! The latter is more likely, according to Murati's estimate. Because he saw Ichiro Aso lead the 20 devils across the suspension bridge with his own eyes.

Whether Ichiro Aso is dead or alive will be put aside for the time being. However, Zhang Gongjin, the chief of the procurement section of the Third Army, could not ignore it. This guy dares to sell weapons and ammunition to the Japanese for two hundred bags of flour, what is that not a traitor? is still a traitor hidden within the national army and has a certain amount of power in his hands!

The Third Army is now fighting a fierce battle with the devils in Zhongtiao Mountain, and there is a traitor in the army. In case this guy leaks the intelligence of our army to the devil at a critical time, isn't the third army dangerous? The more I thought about it, the more I felt that the nature of this matter was strict, and Murati had the idea of pulling out this tumor.

Murati is a sharp-tongued and lively-minded person, even if he has a plan to commit rape in his heart, he will never go and kill Zhang Gongjin recklessly. Without ironclad evidence, it makes no sense to kill the chief of the procurement section of someone else on the territory of the Third Army. Even if he wanted to do it, he had to consult his superiors first.

Murati brought a radio station with him when he came to the door, and at this time he sent a telegram to the commander of the reconnaissance battalion, Cheng Lao. At the same time, he asked the soldiers to throw all the corpses of the devils into the mountain stream, which can be regarded as saving the local area from the possibility of an outbreak of epidemics.

Battalion Commander Cheng called back, you can do it, but you have to do it secretly, and try not to expose the 88 columns behind it. Murati understands that if the 88th Column is involved, it is very likely that there will be a dispute between the two troops, or even between the two theaters. If it were anything else, Murat might just let it go. But since he has been involved in this matter, he has to do the work cleanly and leave no trouble.

In the afternoon of the next day, Murat reappeared in Wenxi County. He took two fighters, dressed in civilian clothes, and inquired all the way to the logistics department of the Third Army. Coincidentally, Zhang Gongjin, the head of the procurement section, happened to be on duty. Mulati met this Section Chief Zhang. Murat is also playing a grain seller this time.

Section Chief Zhang successfully purchased 200 bags of flour yesterday and was praised by the Minister of Logistics, and now is the time for the spring breeze to be proud and happy. Hearing that this was another grain merchant in front of him, he was overjoyed, and after asking in a few words to understand the meaning, he took Mulat and went directly to Defeng Building. If the deal is not successful, eat it first and then talk about it.

After asking for food and drinks, the two of them toasted three glasses first. After eating a few bites of food, Zhang Gongjin asked the so-called grain merchant, how much grain do you have, and what do you say about the price? When it comes to trading, that's not what it's all about.

Murati took the chopsticks and looked at Zhang Gongjin with a calm face, "Section Chief Zhang, you can rest assured about the grain, my batch of flour is all new grain this year, and the price is of course higher than the market price." ”

"Oh, how tall?" Zhang Gongjin was not surprised. He is not afraid of high prices, but he is afraid of running out of food. As long as the quality of food is good, what does it matter if the price is higher? Of course, it would be better if you could buy good food at a low price.

"Well, it's better for Section Chief Zhang to go and see the grain in person, so that I don't have any basis for talking. Wouldn't it be fairer and more reasonable for us to negotiate the price after we see something? ”

"Wow!" Zhang Gongjin is simply too satisfied with this Jianyì. When I got up and was about to leave, I realized that the table full of food and wine hadn't moved much.

After eating and drinking, a few people left Defeng Building, and Murati took Zhang Gongjin and walked outside the county. Section Chief Zhang still wondered, didn't he look at the food, what were he doing out of the city?

"My new grain is outside the city. I'm not afraid of your jokes, and I'm also afraid that if the price can't be negotiated, my food will come and go. ”

The county seat was the headquarters of the Third Army. The Third Army is short of food, and once the grain enters the city, it is easy to say that the price is negotiated, but if it is not negotiated, it may be directly requisitioned by the army! In these years, the army said that what was being requisitioned, and who would dare to resist ordinary people? Although Murat is a nonsense, it also illustrates the real situation at that time.

As an officer of the logistics department, Zhang Gongjin certainly knows what the army is like now, and when he sees that what others say makes sense, of course he has nothing to say. If you go out of the city, you can go out of the city, why don't you just take two more steps, how much can it cost? The only thing he regretted a little was that he didn't get out on a horse, otherwise he wouldn't have had to walk so far.

After leaving the county seat and moving forward, several people didn't mean to stop, and Zhang Gongjin was a little suspicious, "Mr. Mu, where is your food?" How far is it from here? ”

"It's not far away, just ahead. A few steps further to get there. Murat didn't say how far it was, just led it forward.

After walking for another half an hour, Zhang Gongjin's suspicions became heavier and heavier. How to say that he is also an officer in the army, and now that the two armies are fighting, Section Chief Zhang does not lack the vigilance he should have. "Oh, I remember that there is something going on in the logistics department, let's go see the food tomorrow. Farewell. As soon as Zhang Gongjin arched his hand, he turned around and wanted to leave.
