Moreover, Secretary Qiu Fenghan came to the "Tiandao Hall" again on the fourth day to meet with the leopard in the snow and inquire about the results of the consideration of the alliance with the Jiangzhou Independent Regiment.

"Snow Hall Master! Regarding the matter of joining forces with the Jiangzhou Independent Regiment, how have you discussed and considered it? Qiu Fenghan got straight to the point.

"Haha! That's a question! There is a lot of disagreement on this issue; The brothers don't seem to agree! The leopard in the snow said slyly.

"Why don't you agree?"

"Because...... Because the Jiangzhou Independent Regiment is too deep with us! ”

"What abyss?"

"1. Although the 'Golden Jade Clothes' are the heirlooms of the Long Mansion, they have been owned by me later, but Long Zaitian donated the 'Golden Jade Clothes' to the Jiangzhou Independent Regiment for nothing and did not give it to me. 2. I am willing to use 2 to 3,000 oceans to ask the Jiangzhou Independent Regiment to transfer the 'Golden Silk Jade Clothes' to us, but the head of the regiment Xu Mai just refuses to transfer it. 3. My men only attacked the Jiangzhou Independent Regiment for the sake of the 'golden thread of jade', but the Jiangzhou Independent Regiment was ruthless, killing thirteen of my brothers, and also capturing our short guns, long guns, submachine guns, machine guns, as well as ten grenadiers and two mortars. Inspector Qiu! Do you think we can unite with them as one? ”

"Snow Hall Master! Grievances should be resolved rather than settled, what you just said is in the past; The past should be let pass, so why dwell on it? Besides, many of them are not yours, it is your people who go to the door of others! So you can't blame people for it. Qiu Fenghan comforted on the side.

"I don't blame them all, but if I want to unite with them, it will never be possible!"

"Snow Hall Master! Don't talk to you about the great principles of seeking liberation for the people, for in the present situation, it is beneficial for everyone for both of you to join forces. ”

"Inspector Qiu's words do have some truth, but ......" military advisor Han Wuji interjected from the side.

"But what? Han Junshi, please speak. "Inspector Qiu seems to see a glimmer of hope.

"Our Snow Hall Master is also a reasonable person, but he has a knot in his heart that is difficult to untie for a while. I look at ......" Han Wuji wanted to speak and stopped.

"Han Junshi has something to say, but it doesn't hurt to say it."

"In order to bridge the gap between the two sides and unite sincerely, I will see if this is the case: 1. Let the Jiangzhou Independent Regiment return to us all the short guns, long guns, submachine guns, machine guns, as well as ten grenadiers and two mortars that have captured us. 2. To give comfort to each of our thirteen brothers who died, three hundred pieces of ocean. Third, our Snow Hall Master is particularly fond of the 'Golden Jade Clothes', is it up to us to go out of the two thousand oceans, please ask the Jiangzhou Independent Regiment to transfer the 'Golden Jade Clothes' to us. ”

Han Wuji's military advisor seems to be confident, and it may have been discussed with the leopard in the snow in advance - he wants to do the matter of "buying a golden jade robe", one is to satisfy the desire of the leopard in the snow, the second is to save face for himself, and the third is to fulfill Inspector Qiu's joint plan.

"Han Junshi! As for your request for the Jiangzhou Independent Regiment to return to you the guns and ammunition that have been seized from you, I can mediate and try to persuade them to return all your belongings to you. For the thirteen brothers who died of you, it may not be reasonable to give each of you three hundred pieces of ocean as a consolation fee; for this is what you have come to the door of men to fight. As for the issue of exchanging two thousand oceans for 'golden jade clothes', it may not be easy to deal with. Because this was donated by Long Ye to the Jiangzhou Independent Regiment, the Jiangzhou Independent Regiment can only be properly preserved, and cannot and should not be transferred to others. Secretary Qiu Fenghan made his attitude clear.

"That'...... Can Inspector Qiu take the initiative to find the original owner, Master Long? "It seems that Han Wuji has a deep plan for this matter.

"This ...... Let me think about it and see if it's suitable; If I can, I'll go to Long Ye to discuss it in person. Qiu Fenghan didn't expect Han Wuji to make this suggestion.

"Good! For the sake of everyone's joint plan, I would like to ask Inspector Qiu to be more attentive. In addition, on the issue of giving each of our thirteen brothers 300 yuan of ocean to comfort them, I also hope that Inspector Qiu will communicate with the Jiangzhou Independent Regiment. Han Wuji seems to be making the final decision on behalf of the leopard in the snow.

"Okay! I do my best! Qiu Fenghan also expressed his attitude happily.

Qiu Fenghan said goodbye to the Snow Leopard and Han Wuji, and went straight to the Jiangzhou Independent Regiment to inform the head of Xu Mai and Ben Teng of the requirements and his own statement to the head of Xu Mai and Ben Teng. The three of them believed that they agreed to the request of the "Heavenly Dao Hall" to return their captured guns and ammunition to them. We cannot agree to the question of giving three hundred oceans to each of the thirteen people who died, because they came to our doorstep to fight. However, some compensation may be given as appropriate for the sake of joint planning. Regarding the issue of exchanging two thousand oceans for "golden jade clothes", Secretary Qiu Fenghan and head Xu Mai went to discuss this matter with Long Ye.

The next night, Secretary Qiu Fenghan and Head Xu Mai came to Longfu together; Long Ye Long hurriedly greeted him in the sky. After the guests and hosts exchanged pleasantries, Qiu Fenghan briefly explained the situation in the whole country and the situation in Jiangzhou, and explained the significance of the alliance between the Jiangzhou Independent Regiment and the "Tiandaotang"; And the request of the "Heavenly Dao Hall" to use two thousand oceans to "buy golden jade clothes" was eloquently expressed, that is, to solicit the meaning of the dragon master.

Long Ye, who understands the general situation and takes the overall situation into account, listened to Qiu Fenghan's narration, although he felt a little like that in his heart; But for the sake of the future of Jiangzhou and the safety of the lives of the people of Jiangzhou, Long Ye still agreed!

Secretary Qiu Fenghan and head Xu Mai repeatedly told Long Ye: It turned out that Long Ye donated the "golden jade clothes" to the Danjiang Anti-Japanese Guerrilla Detachment (Jiangzhou Independent Regiment); Comrade Xu Mai had no choice but to accept it! Now, the leopard in the snow wants to use two thousand oceans to "buy golden jade clothes", and these two thousand oceans should belong to Long Ye; Please don't shirk Master Long, you must accept it. But Long Ye said that since the "golden jade clothes" have been donated to the Jiangzhou Independent Regiment, they should be owned by the Jiangzhou Independent Regiment; Now the two thousand oceans that the leopard in the snow came out of because of the "purchase of golden jade clothes" should also be owned by the Jiangzhou Independent Regiment.

The two sides made humble concessions again and again, and Inspector Qiu Fenghan finally thought of a way to "get the best of both worlds" - from the Jiangzhou Independent Regiment to Jindian to fight a pair of golden dragons and present them to Master Long, as a congratulatory gift to the anniversary of the completion of Longfu Xinhua Hall; Long Ye had no choice but to agree. After Chief Xu Mai and Secretary Qiu Fenghan thanked him repeatedly, they said goodbye to Master Long and left the Dragon Mansion.

Because of the stakes, Qiu Fenghan decided to make another trip himself - he made an appointment with Xu Mai: tomorrow morning they would go to the "Golden Triangle" to meet the leopard in the snow.

When Secretary Qiu Fenghan and Head Xu Mai came to the "Golden Triangle" the next morning, the scene of the "Tiandao Hall" was completely different - the main hall was full of spring breezes in the snow, and the second hall master Cao Shanchong and the fourth hall master Miyano were often triumphant; Only the military advisor Han Wuji and the three hall masters Zhu Wenjun were displeased.

After talking and understanding, Qiu Fenghan and Xu Mai learned that the Jiangzhou Garrison Command had taken the lead and sent Lin Qishan, the "representative of the national army", to the "Tiandaotang" to recruit an - appointing Snow Leopard as the commander of the 113th Brigade of the 29th Division; Han Wuji is the chief of staff; Cao Shanchong as deputy brigade commander; Zhu Wenjun and Miyano are often the heads of the 223rd Regiment and the 225th Regiment; The squadron leader of each squadron is the battalion commander; Sixteen squads were organized into eight companies and thirty-two platoons; Company commanders and platoon commanders are appointed by the Snow Leopard.

After the "representative of the national army" Lin Qishan announced the appointment, he returned to the Jiangzhou Garrison Command to resume his life; After the sign of "113th Brigade Headquarters of the 29th Division" is delivered, it will be stationed in the "Tiandao Hall". In addition, Lin Qishan also promised the leopard in the snow: In a short period of time, the Jiangzhou Garrison Command will give the "Tiandaotang" (113th Brigade of the 29th Division) 300 long and short guns, 20 light and heavy machine guns, 10 cannons, and 30,000 rounds of bullets and shells; and issued all national army uniforms and military ranks.

How is it good to change the situation suddenly? Secretary Qiu Fenghan and Head Xu Mai decided to have a good talk with the leopard in the snow.

"Snow Hall Master! I told you the day before yesterday that the guns and ammunition seized by the Jiangzhou Independent Regiment can be returned to you; The question of giving comfort money to the thirteen deceased brethren is also open to discussion; As for the fact that you want to use two thousand oceans to 'buy a golden jade robe', I have already communicated with Head Xu to find Master Long!" Long Ye took into account the overall situation and agreed. But how did you hook up with the Jiangzhou Garrison Command? Qiu Fenghan said unceremoniously.

"Inspector Qiu! It's not that I'm hooking up with the Jiangzhou Garrison Command, it's that they came to the door, and I'm also very gracious! The leopard in the snow said proudly.

"What's so hard to be gracious? I think you're confused! What do you say is the use of the broken letter of appointment that Lin Qishan gave you? It's just a beautiful pie! Do you think the Jiangzhou Garrison Command will support you in vain? In the end, they didn't get much guns and ammunition, but when they started fighting, they pushed you to the front as cannon fodder. This is really in response to the old saying: 'I picked up the sesame seeds, but I lost the watermelon'! ”

"Inspector Qiu! Don't be alarmist and demagoguery, our gang can defect to the Jiangzhou Garrison Command and become a dignified national army, which is much stronger than the team of fishermen like you! So we have promised people, please don't embarrass our eldest brother. The second hall master Cao Shanchong said rudely.

"Second hall master, don't look at the Kuomintang's army full of spirit, it is actually a silver spear wax spear, which is vulnerable. The most important thing is that they are lax in military discipline, inferior in quality, oppress the common people, and are unpopular in the township. ”

"Inspector Qiu! You say that the military discipline of the national army is lax and the quality is inferior; So what is the quality of the Jiangzhou Independent Regiment? A bun of dirt buns, loose and loose, not at all like a troop. However, the national army has a straight uniform, excellent weapons, a huge lineup, and a dignified military appearance, which is not majestic. The fourth hall master Miyano often shook his head and said.

"Four Hall Masters! The Kuomintang army looked majestic, but it was just flower shelves and embroidered pillows, which were useless. In terms of the eight-year war of resistance, how many defeats did they suffer? Repeatedly competing with the Eighth Route Army, how much advantage did they take? The most important thing is that those who win the hearts and minds of the people win the world, and a unit should not only look at how well it has military uniforms and weapons, but also look at its ideological purpose and how well it treats the poor masses. Only for the sake of the toiling masses and for the interests and happiness of the toiling masses will the masses of the people support you and support you, and such an army will continue to grow and be invincible! Inspector Qiu said impassionedly.

"That's right! What Inspector Qiu said is very true! We think a lot about it, and we are responsible for more than 2,000 brothers. Military advisor Han Wuji took the opportunity to clarify his concept.

"Han Junshi! Then don't you want to be the chief of staff of the national army? The leopard in the snow asked, squinting.

"Snow Hall Master! To be honest, I really don't want to be this chief of staff. Han Wuji was blunt.

"Snow Hall Master! Actually, I don't want to be the head of the 223rd regiment. The third hall master Zhu Wenjun also lost no time in showing his heart to the leopard in the snow.

"What about you?" The leopard in the snow tilted his head and asked Cao Shanchong and Miyano Chang.

"We are very willing, after all, the Jiangzhou Garrison Force is a regular army, and being able to be the deputy brigade commander of the national army and the commander of the 225th Regiment can be regarded as a matter of honoring our ancestors!" Cao Shan Chong and Miyano are always happy.

"This ...... When to convene a meeting of cadres above the squad leader, brainstorm again, think carefully, and let everyone speak. Captain Xu, Inspector Qiu! You said that you had already talked to Long Ye about the 'golden jade clothes', and Long Ye had also promised to exchange two thousand oceans? "The leopard in the snow is momentarily undecided on the question of who to approach; But he was very interested in the "golden jade clothes".

"Yes! Regarding the fact that your Snow Hall Master wants to exchange two thousand oceans for the 'Golden Jade Clothes', I have already communicated with Master Long with Head Xu! Long Ye took the overall situation into account and has already agreed! Secretary Qiu Fenghan said affirmatively.

"Then your independent regiment seized our guns and ammunition and return them to us in full?" The leopard in the snow stared at Xu Mai with big eyes and asked.

"We have seized your guns and ammunition and returned them to you." Head Xu Mai made a clear statement.

"And what about the consolation money for my thirteen dead brethren?"

"Snow Hall Master! You tell me? Head Xu Mai asked artistically.

"Didn't I say that? To our thirteen dead brethren, give each of us three hundred pieces of ocean to appease. "The leopard in the snow looks like it is going to win.

"Snow Hall Master! This is a challenge for you to come to someone's doorstep! Besides, the Jiangzhou Independent Regiment also had casualties and losses! Inspector Qiu interjected from the side.

"I was at the scene at the time, and there were no dead in their Jiangzhou Independent Regiment, only the wounded. And we have thirteen brothers who have died, and the brethren cannot die in vain, but must be appeased. Cao Shanchong roared angrily.

"Captain Xu! Inspector Qiu! In my opinion, it is not good to blame us for this, but we have also died a lot of brothers, so please give us a little money to save face. "The Korean military division mediated from this.

"Since Master Han said so, then we will give each of your thirteen brothers a 'heart fee' of ten oceans." Head Xu Mai intends to release the low price first.

"Ten oceans per person? Are you calling Hanako? Ten oceans is not enough to buy a coffin! Thirty oceans per person, no one is missing. "Miyano often made a slip of the tongue for a while, saying that the three hundred oceans in his heart were thirty oceans.

"Fourth brother! It's three hundred oceans, not thirty oceans. Cao Shanchong hurriedly corrected.

"Good! According to the words of the four hall masters, the Jiangzhou Independent Regiment gave each of the thirteen brothers who died a pacification fee of 30 yuan. The military advisor Han Wuji hurriedly took Miyano's wrong words seriously.

"Nope! I was wrong about what I just said, not thirty oceans, but three hundred oceans. Miyano said with shame and remorse.

"Who told you to say the wrong thing? All right! So be it! We have already appeased the thirteen brothers who died, and the Jiangzhou Independent Regiment will give them a subsidy of thirty yuan each. The leopard in the snow was secretly happy because the matter of the "golden jade clothes" had been implemented, and he didn't want to entangle with head Xu Mai for the consolation fee of the dead brother.

"Okay! According to the decision of the Lord of the Snow Hall, we will give each of the thirteen brothers who died a subsidy of thirty pieces of ocean. Head Xu Mai also agreed.

"Good! Inspector Qiu has come a few times and has never had time to stay, and it is the first time for Captain Xu to come, and several major events have been completed today, so everyone went to the Drunken Immortal Restaurant to be happy. "The leopard in the snow sincerely invites.

"Captain Xu! Inspector Qiu! Since we are invited by the master of the Snow Hall, let's invite the two of you to enjoy the light! "Military advisor Han Wuji squeezed his eyes at Qiu Fenghan and Xu Mai and said-Han Wuji has the intention to let Inspector Qiu and Commander Xu have more contact with the leopard in the snow.

"Good! If this is the case, then it is better to be respectful than to obey the fate, and we will stay and bother! Secretary Qiu Fenghan also wanted to take the opportunity of dinner to talk to the Snow Leopard about abandoning the Jiangzhou garrison and uniting with the Jiangzhou Independent Regiment.

A group of more than a dozen people came to the Zuixian Restaurant, and the leopard in the snow asked for high-quality wine and food, and everyone drank happily.

Qiu Fenghan and Xu Mai had no intention of drinking, and talked with the military advisor Han Wuji many times about how to win the snow leopard to abandon the Jiangzhou garrison and unite with the Jiangzhou Independent Regiment. Han Wuji said that he was willing to help - before the Snow Leopard held a meeting of cadres above the squad leader, he and Zhu Wenjun separately connected with each other, so that everyone did not agree to join the Jiangzhou garrison at the meeting; After a while, I will talk to the Snow Leopard about the union with the Jiangzhou Independent Regiment. But he hoped that Inspector Qiu and Captain Xu Mai would send the "golden jade clothes" over as soon as possible, and after taking 2,000 oceans of leopards in the snow, they would secretly only receive 1,000 oceans; There were also a thousand oceans to ask the leopard in the snow to comfort the thirteen brothers who had died. Each of the thirteen brothers had thirty pieces of ocean, and only three hundred and ninety pieces of ocean, and six hundred and ten more oceans were given to the leopard in the snow, so that he might rejoice. He rejoiced! I think you are open-minded and generous, and if you can get along, things will be easier to do in the future!

In addition, in response to the fact that the Jiangzhou Garrison Command sent Lin Qishan as a "representative of the national army" to be stationed in the "Tiandao Hall"; Han Wuji suggested that head Xu Mai also send a capable cadre as a "liaison" to be stationed in the "Tiandao Hall". In this way, it is good to know what the situation is in time and contact in time.

Secretary Qiu Fenghan and head Xu Mai thought that Han Junshi was sincere and thoughtful, and repeatedly expressed their gratitude; He also indicated that he would pay close attention to the implementation of all matters after he returned.

A group of people waited to eat, drink, talk and talk until their stomachs were full, and then they dispersed.

After Secretary Qiu Fenghan and Head Xu Mai went back, they went to the warehouse to get the "golden jade clothes" to give to the leopard in the snow. However, the "golden jade clothes" disappeared.

The "golden jade clothes" hidden in the material warehouse of the Jiangzhou Independent Regiment disappeared? How is this possible? How could it not be? The "golden jade clothes" are gone! That's a real possibility!

Then, the Jiangzhou Independent Regiment has strong walls and is impregnable; Why did this "golden jade clothes" disappear? Where did it "fly"? Please let me speak slowly.

As early as September last year (1945), the leopard in the snow adopted the advice of the military adviser Han Wuji and asked the "night owl" Liang Shangjun to step on the Santang Bay to spy on the geography of the Jiangzhou Independent Regiment and the hiding place of the "golden jade clothes".

When Liang Shangjun arrived at Santang Bay, he saw that the barracks were brightly lit and heavily guarded, and he did not dare to move lightly - he waited for more than half an hour before he jumped to the top of his estimated warehouse, uncovered the roof tiles, took out the bricks, and peeked inside with a powerful flashlight; Sure enough, I saw a black leather bag of about one square meter lying in the innermost corner of the shelf in the warehouse - Liang Shangjun estimated that this was the "golden jade clothes" donated by Long Zaitian to the Danjiang anti-Japanese guerrilla detachment at the birthday banquet.

At that time, although there was no special person to guard the warehouse, the patrolling guerrillas kept patrolling back and forth - Liang Shangjun secretly thought in his heart: it was not easy to go down and steal the "golden jade clothes" and still be able to escape with his whole body; Therefore, he left the barracks, left Santang Bay, and returned to Tiandao Hall to report the situation to the Snow Hall Master and Han Junshi.

Later, Cao Shanchong and Miyano often led troops to attack the Jiangzhou Independent Regiment, in a vain attempt to seize the "golden jade clothes", but they lost their troops and returned defeated.

Cao Shanchong and Miyano often did not get the "golden jade clothes", but Liang Shangjun had an irrepressible possessiveness of the "golden jade clothes". Hum! They mobilized the people, and so many brothers died that they didn't get the "golden jade clothes"; Look at me, Liang Shangjun can get the "golden jade clothes" without blood.

Chinese New Year's Eve is a diverse day - because on this day, all the gods and goddesses return to the heavenly court to report the situation to the Jade Emperor, and on the morning of the first day of the new year, every household worships incense and sets off firecrackers to "please the gods". So on this day, no one cares about the affairs of the mortal world, and any good and ugly things can happen.

Liang Shanzhou chose to "set fire to the Dragon Mansion on Chinese New Year's Eve", and Liang Shangjun also chose to steal jade clothes on Chinese New Year's Eve - two villains did earth-shattering things on the same day.

February 1, 1946, Chinese New Year's Eve.

At eleven o'clock at night, Liang Shangjun quietly infiltrated the Jiangzhou Independent Regiment. However, due to the Spring Festival holiday, although there are personnel on duty in the barracks, there are not many officers and men.

Liang Shangjun, who was familiar with the car, jumped to the top of the warehouse he was familiar with, and was about to make a move, but saw that a person who looked like an officer seemed to have discovered him; But instead of questioning him, the officer led the four patrolmen to rest in the corridor of the headquarters.

As mentioned above, the headquarters of the Jiangzhou Independent Regiment is at the front, the arsenal and material warehouse with the iron gate are in the middle, and the dormitory is at the back - the patrol soldiers rest in the corridor of the headquarters, and the material warehouse has become a "blind spot".

Liang Shangjun felt that this officer was a little strange, and seemed to be willing to help him; But who is this officer? How could he help me for no reason? Liang Shangjun didn't think much about it, so he uncovered the roof tiles, took out the bricks, tied them to the rafters with ropes, and the people slid down the ropes to the ground.

Liang Shangjun turned on a powerful flashlight, took out a black leather bag of about one square meter from the innermost corner of the shelf, opened it, and confirmed that it was a "golden jade clothes"; Then he quickly climbed up to the roof along the rope, untied the rope, covered the brick roof tiles, and walked away quietly.

The year before last, that is, in the middle of the night on the twelfth day of the first month of the first month of the year of Jiashen (February 5, 1944), the "night owl" Liang Shangjun sneaked into the Dragon Mansion, stabbed Long Tianwei, killed Lilac, and got the "golden jade clothes" back and handed them over to the leopard in the snow. The leopard in the snow took out 500 yuan of ocean as a reward, and asked Liang Shangjun to immediately go outside to "take shelter from the wind".

Liang Shangjun took the reward of 500 yuan for the leopard in the snow, and he was very unhappy in his heart - the "golden jade clothes" are worth a lot of money, and Lao Tzu fought hard to get it, but you only gave me 500 yuan for the leopard in the snow, which is too stingy!

Last September, "night owl" Liang Shangjun was ordered to go to the Santangwan Jiangzhou Independent Regiment to spy on the situation, and when he saw the "golden jade clothes" lying in the innermost corner of the warehouse, he had the idea of swallowing the "golden jade clothes" alone - and later chose to do it on Chinese New Year's Eve.

After the "night owl" Liang Shangjun obtained the "golden jade clothes" on Chinese New Year's Eve, he did not treasure the "golden jade clothes" as family heirlooms, nor did he plan to sell the "golden jade clothes" to make a windfall - he wanted to exchange the "golden jade clothes" for a "splendid future".

After Qi Lianyue, the former commander of the Jiangzhou Garrison Command, was demoted because of the "golden jade clothes," Qin Boxiong, the newly appointed garrison commander, also became very interested in the "golden jade clothes." Qin Boxiong once said in private: Whoever can help him get the "golden jade clothes" will reward this "meritorious person" with the post of deputy head of the regiment.

The "reward information" released by Commander Qin Boxiong privately continued to spread in secret, and Liang Shangjun learned about it. After Liang Shangjun obtained the "golden jade clothes" on Chinese New Year's Eve, he asked the leopard in the snow for a long vacation, saying that he was going to visit his sick mother in his hometown in Wuxi. The leopard in the snow didn't know what to do, so he was allowed to leave.

After the first month and a half of the year of Bingshu, the "night owl" Liang Shangjun came to the Jiangzhou Garrison Headquarters with the "golden jade clothes" and met with the garrison commander Qin Boxiong. Commander Qin Boxiong was pleasantly surprised when he saw the haunting "golden jade clothes" in front of him, and he couldn't put it down; Liang Shangjun was immediately appointed as the deputy commander of the 3rd Regiment of the 112th Brigade of the 28th Division - Liang Shangjun rose to prominence from a thief to a captain officer of the National Army, and since then his name has been changed to Liang Chengwu.

The 2nd Brigade and 3rd Regiment of the 28th Division of the Jiangzhou Garrison Command was actually an "empty pay regiment" - when this regiment fought a bloody battle with the Japanese army in Qingshui Town in March 1945, there were only more than 300 people left in the whole regiment; But Qin Boxiong still retained the number of this regiment, falsely signed up for the quota, and always took the party-state's military salary.

Moreover, Wei Xin'an, the keeper of the material warehouse of the Jiangzhou Independent Regiment, cleaned the material warehouse inside and out on Chinese New Year's Eve, checked the important materials one by one, and went back to celebrate the New Year in the evening!

After the Spring Festival, Wei Xin'an also opened several material warehouses to deliver and purchase goods, but he didn't look at the innermost corner of the shelf. Today, Head Xu Mai and Inspector Qiu Fenghan (most people don't know that Qiu Fenghan is the secretary of the Jiangzhou Municipal Party Committee) came to pick up the "Golden Jade Clothes" in person, and Wei Xin'an knew that the "Golden Jade Clothes" had been stolen! This scared him so much that the three souls stole out, and the seven spirits ascended to heaven, and he could barely stand up!

Head Xu Mai immediately asked people to take over Wei Xin'an's work and put Wei Xin'an in a confinement room.

Secretary Qiu Fenghan and head Xu Mai came to the conference room and immediately notified the cadres above the platoon level to hold a meeting to investigate and analyze the "golden jade clothes case".

According to everyone's analysis, it is unlikely that Wei Xin'an will steal from prison. And according to Wei Xin'an, he also saw the "golden jade clothes" before returning home on Chinese New Year's Eve - which shows that the "golden jade clothes" were stolen during the Spring Festival; And Chinese New Year's Eve is the most likely time. Regiment Commander Xu Mai also asked Chen Xiaoyu, chief of the Security Section, to look up the records and call the officers and men on duty on Chinese New Year's Eve to understand the situation. However, the officer on duty, Hong Helang (staff officer of the regiment headquarters), and the soldiers on duty said that they did not see any clues on the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, nor did they see any suspicious people or suspicious points—this matter could only be handed over to the security department for investigation.

Without the "golden jade clothes", how can you talk to the leopard in the snow? Secretary Qiu Fenghan believes that the Jiangzhou Garrison Command has already sent Lin Qishan as a "representative of the national army" and is to be stationed in the "Tiandao Hall", and the situation is pressing. We can only return the guns and ammunition seized from the "Tiandaotang" to the snow leopard first; He also brought the "compensation" of the thirteen deceased brothers, three hundred and ninety yuan. As for the "golden jade clothes", they must truthfully explain the situation to the leopard in the snow; And decided: once you find the "golden jade clothes", send them quickly. In addition, after receiving the understanding of the leopard in the snow, he immediately sent people to the "Heavenly Dao Hall".

Head Xu Mai and Political Commissar Ben Teng fully agreed with Secretary Qiu Fenghan's opinion and began to handle the relevant matters.

The next day, Secretary Qiu Fenghan and Regiment Commander Xu Mai led people to bring more than 600 short guns, long guns, submachine guns, machine guns, as well as 10 grenadiers and two mortars to the "Tiandao Hall" and 390 pieces of ocean! However, the leopard in the snow who couldn't see the "golden jade clothes" immediately turned his face.

"Inspector Qiu! Captain Xu! You're kidding me, aren't you? I said that I would give me two thousand oceans, and you would bring me the 'golden jade clothes'; ”

"Snow Hall Master! It's not that our words don't count, we have always kept our word. It's just that this time, the 'golden jade clothes' hidden deep in the warehouse were stolen! But we promise with our personality that once we find the 'golden jade clothes', we will send them over immediately. Head Xu Mai hurriedly explained.

"The 'golden jade clothes' hidden in the warehouse have been stolen? Who believes that? I don't listen to your gossip, I'm a real person, and what I say is long; If you don't count, then we have nothing to talk about! ”

"Snow Hall Master! Think about it, if the 'Golden Jade Clothes' are in our hands, is it necessary for us to play this one? We all said it well the day before yesterday, and everyone was very happy, so why should we turn our backs on it, make things stiff, and damage the joint plan? ”

"Who knows what heart you have in peace? You're backsliding! Fail to keep the faith! Deliberately toying with us! We don't ramble with you people! Please! Cao Shanchong, who wanted to be an officer of the national army, barbarized and "civilized" under the order to expel the guests.

"Second Hall Master ......" As soon as Head Xu Mai spoke, he was interrupted by Miyano Chang arbitrarily.

"You people! It's Confucius's egg, which looks wrinkled and is actually a pile of shit; Get out of here! "Miyano often swears.

"Four Hall Masters! How do you talk like that? Captain Xu and Inspector Qiu are both our guests, and you are not allowed to be so rude! The military advisor Han Wuji knew that Cao Shanchong and Miyano often had ulterior motives, and when he heard their disrespectful words, he hurriedly opened his mouth to reprimand.

"Han Junshi! Why are you in a hurry? Why are you helping them so much? I see that you are always chattering, I'm afraid you have received any benefits from others, right? "Miyano often believes in the truth.

"Fourth! With the heart of a villain, you spend the belly of a gentleman! Han Junshi's personality is obvious to all, he is upright, fair, and selfless, you are not allowed to slander Han Junshi like this! Zhu Wenjun stood up awe-inspiring and spoke for the military advisor Han Wuji.

"The third! Who do you say is the villain? Clean your mouth for me, and be careful that I hit you all over the ground looking for teeth! Miyano said viciously.

"You dare!" Zhu Wenjun did not show weakness.

"Why don't you dare? If you can scold him, he can beat you, I actively support it! Cao Shanchong insisted on helping Miyano often bully Zhu Wenjun.

"What are you arguing about? There are still guests here, you are like this, and you still have to be ashamed? The leopard in the snow shouted loudly, and the hall suddenly fell silent.

"Han Junshi! You give me all the guns and ammunition and three hundred and ninety ocean points, and I'll talk about the 'golden jade clothes' later." Send it off as soon as it's finished! So saying, the leopard left his throne and went back to the back hall alone.

"This ...... Good! The military advisor Han Wuji wanted to say something, but when he saw that the leopard in the snow had already left his seat and ran back, he had to "say more".

The military advisor Han Wuji and the three hall masters Zhu Wenjun counted and collected three hundred and ninety oceans and handed them over to the accountkeeper; He called the custodians of the apparatus and counted the guns and ammunition; Then Inspector Qiu and Head Xu and others were sent out of the "Heavenly Dao Hall".

Along the way, Han Junshi repeatedly persuaded Commander Xu and Inspector Qiu not to get angry, and not to be like villains like Cao Shanchong and Miyano Chang; And he will work with Zhu Wenjun to persuade the leopard in the snow. Qiu and Xu had no choice but to ask Han Wuji and Zhu Wenjun.

Secretary Qiu Fenghan and Head Xu Mai and others left the "Golden Triangle" in a huff, and Qiu Fenghan wanted to go back to the detective office, so he shook hands with Xu Mai and said goodbye.

Parting, Qiu Fenghan hoped that Xu Mai would be able to stretch and bend, and not be distracted by the villain's anger. The top priority at the moment is to find out the whereabouts of the "golden jade clothes" as soon as possible; the second is to select witty and brave people as candidates for sending to the "Heavenly Dao Hall"; The third is to often send people to the "Tiandao Hall" to find the military advisor Han Wuji to contact the third hall master Zhu Wenjun, and whenever he has the opportunity, he will see the stitches and send people into the "Tiandao Hall". In addition, it is said that it is good to go to the gold store to play a pair of "golden dragons" and give them to Long Ye Long Zaitian, as a congratulatory gift for the completion of Longfu Xinhua Hall, this matter is still done, and there must be no mistake. Head Xu Mai nodded again and again.

As soon as Regiment Commander Xu Mai returned to the regiment headquarters, Chen Xiaoyu, chief of the security section, came to report the situation: Han Bing, a "goshawk" passenger sent to the Jiangzhou Garrison Command to go undercover, sent important information, and the intelligence mentioned "golden jade clothes".
