Chapter 299: Lao Maozi Pays the Bill
When Zhang Wenhua was busy with fifty old Maozi military doctors, the negotiations between Yang Xingguo and Lao Maozi also began. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
Faced with Lao Maozi's request to cooperate with him, let himself attack the Japanese army, and attract Japanese troops.
Yang Xingguo agreed very quickly.
Just when the old Maozi negotiator thought that Yang Xingguo didn't seem to be that difficult to deal with.
Yang Xingguo's tone changed, and he followed and said: "There is no problem in beating the Japanese...... However, your army must replenish our Liaodong Army with sufficient weapons and ammunition. My Liaodong Army's family background is limited, and it has been accumulated by myself little by little, so I can't use my limited family background to sell my life to you! ”
Yang Xingguo suddenly made this request, although it was very unexpected, but it did not exceed Lao Maozi's expectations.
After a short hesitation, he replied to Yang Xingguo: "Of course, my Russian Empire treats its friends very generously. In order to support the Liaodong Army, our commander decided to take out 2,000 rifles, 200,000 rounds of ammunition, 20,000 heavy machine guns, and 20,000 rounds of heavy machine gun ammunition to support the Liaodong Army......"
Yang Xingguo didn't think about it, and replied with a sneer on his face: "Are you calling Hanako again?" ”
"Do you know the conditions when my Liaodong Army took the initiative to cooperate with your army and fight the Japanese together? At that time, the conditions were far more than that, let alone ...... now."
Lao Maozi's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly asked: "Commander Yang, do you mean that as long as we agree to the conditions you put forward last time, you will agree to cooperate with my Russian army?" ”
"No......" Yang Xingguo decisively refused.
Ignoring the stunned expression on the face of the old Maozi in front of him, he continued: "The last condition was a few months ago. Nowadays, our Liaodong Army is no longer what it used to be, and if you want my Liaodong Army to help you, of course, the conditions for sending troops must be improved. ”
"20,000 rifles, 200 heavy machine guns, 20 mountain guns. 5,000,000 rounds of rifle ammunition, 1,000,000 rounds of heavy machine gun bullets, and 5,000 rounds of mountain artillery shells. In addition, I will also supplement the military expenses of 500,000 taels of silver for my Liaodong Army......"
Compared with the conditions that Yang Xingguo had put forward a few months ago. This time it's more than four times more.
At this time, even Sun Liechen, the chief of staff beside him, was taken aback by Yang Xingguo's conditions.
looked at Yang Xingguo with a smile, and thought from the bottom of his heart that Yang Xingguo was opening his mouth with a lion. It is impossible to say yes.
Sure enough, the old Maozi sitting opposite also showed a stunned expression.
Facing Yang Xingguo, he retorted with an incredulous face: "No, it's impossible...... Commander Yang, you are simply a lion's mouth. We, the Commander, will never agree to your unreasonable demands......"
Yang Xingguo sneered and asked, "Do you think this is an unreasonable request...... However, I don't think so. ”
"I seem to remember what you just said, after the two of us began to cooperate, for every Japanese army we destroyed, your army would compensate my Liaodong Army with a rifle and a hundred rounds of ammunition as a reward......"
"Yes, Commander Yang...... This is a decision made by our commander, I am sure, as long as you come with the nameplate to destroy the Japanese army, we will send you the corresponding weapons and ammunition, little by little......" Lao Maozi didn't know what Yang Xingguo's purpose was in asking this sentence? But in order to show their sincerity. Or answer briskly.
A smile quickly flashed on Yang Xingguo's face, and he affirmed to Lao Maozi: "Okay...... That's what I want......"
After speaking, Yang Xingguo didn't wait for Lao Maozi to react, and directly ordered the guard at the door: "Platoon Commander Wang, bring in a box of the things I asked you to prepare......
Soon, a wooden box was placed on the conference table for the two sides to negotiate.
After Yang Xingguo opened the box with his own hands, a whole box full of copper nameplates appeared directly in front of everyone.
Because these nameplates are all in Japanese, and there are many nameplates with the blood of little devils. In the blink of an eye, Chief of Staff Sun Liechen understood the origin of these nameplates. And thought of the reason why Yang Xingguo left these nameplates in the first place.
Lao Maozi, who was sitting opposite, also seemed to see the origin of these nameplates, and thought of Yang Xingguo's purpose in taking out these nameplates.
His face changed, and he was just about to speak. Yang Xingguo, who has been staring at his every move. Unexpectedly, he took the lead and said in front of him: "An ordinary Japanese soldier's nameplate is exchanged for a rifle, and there are a total of 3,000 nameplates in this box, and I still have four more such boxes...... How many rifles and bullets can you think these nameplates can be exchanged for......"
"And. In addition to the nameplates of ordinary soldiers, we have the nameplates of several thousand Japanese officers...... An ordinary soldier can change a rifle, and an officer must get more......"
"Nearly 1,000 lieutenants, hundreds of adjutants, plus a few generals, I don't know how many weapons and ammunition can be exchanged......"
"The weapons that were exchanged for all the nameplates of the Second Division of the Devils, plus the conditions I put forward a few months ago. I ask you for 20,000 rifles, 200 heavy machine guns, and 20 mountain guns...... There are very few left......"
"If you still think that the condition I just put forward is that the lion opens his mouth, then there is no need for us to continue talking......"
At this time, the old Maozi in front of him was already in a cold sweat because of nervousness.
Under Yang Xingguo's gaze, he couldn't say a word for a long time.
Although Yang Xingguo had no reason to take the nameplate of the Japanese army that was eliminated before the negotiation, Lao Maozi did not dare to refuse.
With Lao Maozi's understanding of Yang Xingguo, if he doesn't admit this result, he won't pay for these more than 10,000 devils.
Yang Xingguo, who seemed to be smiling in front of him, would definitely refuse to continue negotiations with him without hesitation.
In this way, the helpless old Maozi could only send this problem to the commander of Liaoyang City.
"Bastard, cunning Liaodong Army, cunning Chinese......" After reading the news sent back by his subordinates, Commander Lao Maozi had no other way than to be angry.
Perhaps seeing that the commander was tired of scolding, the chief of staff on the side hurriedly said: "Your Excellency Commander, will we agree or not to the conditions of the Liaodong Army...... If they don't agree, the Liaodong Army will most likely not agree to continue the negotiations......"
"Promise them......" It took a long minute of contemplation before Commander Lao Maozi decided.
"However, we also have a lot of use for mountain artillery and heavy machine guns, and we can't give them much, but we can compensate for them with ammunition......"
"Reply to Yang Xingguo, commander of the Liaodong Army, I will give him 20,000 rifles, 5 million rounds of ammunition, 100 heavy machine guns, 1 million heavy machine gun bullets, 10 mountain cannons, 5,000 shells, and 500,000 taels of silver......"
"As for the missing part of the weapon, it is compensated with the Madsen light machine gun that has just been shipped back from China. According to the reactions of the troops, the firepower of the Madsen light machine gun was not as good as that of the heavy machine gun, and the units were not used to it, so they were sent back a lot. “
"I remember that there are still 210 pieces in the arsenal, and there are more than 500,000 rounds of bullets, all of which were sent to the Liaodong Army......
"By the way, bring me another sentence to Yang Xingguo, I can give weapons, but the Liaodong Army must use the results of the shot to tell me that the efforts of my Russian army are worth it." (To be continued.) )
