Chapter 11: The Warmth of the Night

The staff officer surnamed Qian was obviously happier than Han Zhangting, Zhao Zhi just exchanged a batch of Japanese-style equipment that had not yet been captured in his hand for a promise from the Jin Suijun, as long as Zhao Zhi handed over the Japanese-style equipment captured after the battle with the Japanese army to the Jin Suijun for disposal, then Zhao Zhi's troops could build an airfield and an advance base anywhere in Shanxi. Zhao Zhi's material reserves were concentrated in Kunming, and if he wanted to transfer his troops to distant Siberia, he also had to ensure the supply of troops and ammunition replenishment, so the plan for now was to establish airfields in Shanxi and Inner Mongolia and transfer his hoarded materials to Siberia by air.

Until Zhao Zhi went to bed, he was still mentally estimating the establishment of airports and forward bases in Shanxi and Inner Mongolia, and Zhao Zhi, who was dizzy, had just closed his eyes when there was a knock on his door. "Sir, there is news from Tang Lei" Luo Ying knocked on Zhao Zhi's door with the telegram he had just received, as long as it was something related to the military situation, no matter how late the time was, he had to be informed as soon as possible, this was something that everyone around Zhao Zhi knew.

"Take it" Zhao Zhi stretched out his hand to turn on the lamp, covering the light with his body, and Rowling, who was sleeping inside, was awakened by the light. "Tang Lei, this kid's movements are quite fast" Looking at the message in his hand, Zhao Zhi couldn't help laughing. When Tang Lei set off, Zhao Zhi only gave him a 150-person mercenary team without any logistical support, originally Zhao Zhi thought that Tang Lei was going to arrive in Zhangwu County, how could it take a month to be enough, who would have thought that this kid was a refusal to admit defeat, and it only took 20 days to arrive outside Zhangwu County.

Luo Ying, the person who called the telecommunications room immediately sent a telegram to Adam and told him Tang Lei's location "Tang Lei is a strange guy, he rarely interacts with those Jews, Zhao Zhi guessed that he must have only left marks for the First Army along the way, but did not send a telegram to Adam after arriving in Zhangwu County. The contradiction between the mercenaries and the Jews has always existed, but Zhao Zhi never interfered, as long as the two sides did not do too much, Zhao Zhi would only pretend not to see it many times.

Tang Lei's sudden telegram made Zhao Zhi feel sleepy, and after temporarily turning around on the bed for about half an hour, Zhao Zhi simply dressed up and walked out of the room, walking around the airport alone. The airport in the night was lonely, and the barracks of the airport were full of the Second Army Corps, which had successfully arrived, only a few rays of light still existed in the tall and wide garage of the armored troops, and Zhao Zhi knew that it was the technicians of the armored forces who were working overtime to overhaul the armored vehicles. Nodding with the oncoming patrol, Zhao Zhi slowly walked up to the outermost watchtower on the south side of the airport.

Mo Lun built a watchtower in the airport, the 10-meter-high watchtower is a permanent fortification of cement and steel, the watchtower is not only strong enough to garrison troops, but also Molun also reserved a place on the top of the watchtower to install anti-aircraft machine guns, as long as the transport planes stationed in Kunming can send the anti-aircraft machine guns supported by the United States to Xi'an, this airport is impregnable. The watchtower has just been completed, Zhao Zhihai did not send soldiers here, the gray-black watchtower looks like a monster with a big mouth open, and Zhao Zhi's footsteps look a little cold in the empty corridor.

The third floor of the watchtower has many rooms, the first floor and the basement are the places where water and ammunition are stored, the second floor is the resting place of the soldiers of the assistant watchtower, and the third floor is the normal duty of the guard sentry, and the top of the watchtower is only used in the event of an air raid. Zhao Zhi carefully inspected every place in the watchtower to see if there were any omissions, this airport was the forward base for Zhao Zhi to take the first step, Zhao Zhi knew that once the First Army shot in Shanxi, he and the Jewish Army would immediately become the target of the Japanese army's crazy pursuit, so guarding the watchtower of the airport was particularly crucial.

After inspecting the watchtower, Zhao Zhi had a new understanding of Mo Lun's ability to do things, but he didn't expect this guy who was used to cheating to really do things, but he was particularly serious at a glance. Standing on the watchtower and looking into the distance, looking at the dotted lights in the airport, Zhao Zhi suddenly had a feeling as if he was camping in the wild in his previous life.

Carefully calculate the time, Zhao Zhi has been in this era for more than 3 years, and he has experienced too many things during this period, and Zhao Zhi has also changed from a penniless lonely boy to a powerful place where he now has more than 100,000 soldiers and millions of Jews on his back. Now with the help of the Americans and the Rockman family, as long as Zhao Zhi wants, he can immediately gather more than 300,000 troops from the Jewish ghetto in Kunming, and as long as the weapons laboratory in Florida still exists, he Zhao Zhi will not be short of money and weapons.

A sound of soft footsteps sounded behind Zhao Zhi, but Zhao Zhi didn't look back, he knew that it was Rowling who came, and when Zhao Zhi took the message from Luo Ying, he noticed that Rowling had woken up. This considerate and intelligent woman just pretends to be still asleep, everyone has the right to keep secrets, and Rowling doesn't want to be a woman who is beside Zhao Zhi all day long. But Zhao Zhi went out of the room but did not return for a long time, Rowling who was nesting in the bed was a little worried, so she hurriedly looked for it, Rowling knew Zhao Zhi too well, and guessed that Zhao Zhi went to the watchtowers around the airport to check.

"Honey, how did you get here? I'm looking for you in a big circle" Rowling hugged him from behind Zhao Zhi, and complained to Zhao Zhi in a strange tone, this man is too worry-free, it's not good to stay in the house and sleep at night, and run around a dark and sloppy airport.

"Why are you up too? Tang Lei arrived in Zhangwu County ahead of schedule, I was just thinking about the next arrangement" Zhao Zhi pulled Luo Lin with his backhand and hugged him in his arms. The night in Xi'an in March was still a little cold, and Rowling, who was wearing a little thin, shivered in Zhao Zhi's arms, Zhao Zhi habitually wore a full set of weapons and equipment on his body, and those cold iron tools were the main reason for Rowling's trembling.

"You're not around, I can't sleep" Rowling rubbed in Zhao Zhi's arms like a kitten, the smell of the man was very good, Rowling, who was shrouded in the night, was a little obsessed with this smell, she enjoyed the feeling of being held in Zhao Zhi's arms. Zhao Zhi has been very busy recently, although they sleep in the same bed every night, but when Rowling has fallen asleep, Zhao Zhi has not come back, and when Rowling wakes up in the morning, Zhao Zhi has long been gone, and Rowling has not enjoyed such warmth for a long time.

"You know what? When I was first in Shanghai, I just wanted to be a rich man, to have enough money to eat good food, drink the best wine, smoke the best cigars, this is my ideal, don't laugh, if you don't believe it, next time you can ask Hunter" Zhao Zhi couldn't stop Rowling's playful laughter hiding in his arms, so he had to punishively rub Rowling's hair with his chin. He said such things now, no wonder Rowling would not believe it, who would believe that the original dream of a person with heavy troops was just to be a rich man.

What's more, which of the things Zhao Zhi has done has anything to do with his ideal of being a rich man? Zhao Zhi alone spent a lot of money for those Jews, not to mention the things he did in order to obtain advanced power plants, steel mills and weapons production lines in Britain and France, just the counterfeit banknotes that Zhao Zhi instructed the Krim gangs to print were enough for Zhao Zhi to squander for a lifetime, not to mention that Zhao Zhi still had a lot of precious antiques and oil paintings snatched from Buckingham Palace, carefully calculated, Zhao Zhi's current net worth is not much less than the Lockman family accumulated over several generations.

"Okay, okay, I believe you, you've messed up my hair" After being ravaged by Zhao Zhi's chin, Rowling raised the white flag and surrendered. Since the last time Rowling risked death to give Zhao Zhi a blood transfusion, this blonde woman has really entered Zhao Zhi's heart, and when there is no one around, Zhao Zhi doesn't mind doing something greasy with the woman he loves, but if Yu Dazhi and they see this scene in front of them, they will definitely say in private that Zhao Zhi and Rowling are people with brain problems.

Zhao Zhi, who was holding Rowling, closed his eyes in the night breeze, enjoying this rare tranquility, and noticed that his man began to breathe longer, and Rowling, who was snuggled in Zhao Zhi's arms, smiled quietly. Having shared a bed with Zhao Zhi for a year, Rowling was familiar with every part of Zhao Zhi's body, and she could sense the change in Zhao Zhi's mood from Zhao Zhi's breathing. Luo Lin knew that Zhao Zhi had been busy arranging the affairs of the troops that were about to enter Shanxi recently, and there were so many things that Zhao Zhi was almost out of breath, and only the current Zhao Zhi could be regarded as letting go of the burden of the front.

The night wind was stronger again, and the thinly dressed Rowling shrank into Zhao Zhi's arms, Zhao Zhi didn't speak, just picked up Rowling and went down the stairs to the watchtower. Luo Ying, who was still in her sleep and was forcibly dragged up by Luo Lin, was dozing off in the corner of the watchtower, and when she saw her husband holding his wife down the watchtower, she hurriedly cheered up and followed behind Zhao Zhi. "You too, Luo Ying is still just a child, why did you wake him up so well?" Zhao Zhi slapped Luo Lin's ass as punishment, looking at Luo Ying's drowsy appearance step by step, Zhao Zhi and Luo Lin laughed a little heartlessly.

Luo Ying, who was dozing off while walking, rolled her eyes helplessly at the two people in front of her, pouted and honestly followed behind Zhao Zhi, and walked towards her room step by step. Luo Ying followed the idle Ye Kong to Xi'an City to play around during the day, Luo Ying, who was crazy, was already exhausted, if it wasn't for Luo Lin dragging him out of the bed, this kid would definitely sleep with a pillow until daylight.
