Episode 32 Firepower
Zheng Gongyin said with a smile:
"Hehe, Xiao Xiang, let me introduce you, this is Director Jiang, she is an important member of our Daming East Factory! Hehe, Director Jiang, this is ......"
Jiang Meilu didn't interrupt him, she looked at Xiang Xiaoqiang with a smile, and waited until Hou Ye Zheng finished introducing him, and then she made a look at Xiang Xiaoqiang like an old acquaintance, meaning: Old acquaintance, you have a bigger face than me, you talk to Hou Ye!
Xiang Xiaoqiang shook his head, and while secretly sighing at this woman's caution, he also smiled:
"Hehe, Master Hou, I won't tell you anything, Director Jiang and I are old acquaintances."
Zheng Gongyin said strangely:
"Oh?"
Jiang Meilu turned her face at this time, and gave Hou Ye a brief introduction to the last time the two met.
Zheng Gongyin laughed:
"It's better to say this, since they are old acquaintances, they must be able to get twice the result with half the effort when they cooperate!"
Cooperate?
Jiang Meilu was dressed very smartly today, wearing a beige women's windbreaker, snow-white gloves, a cashmere bud hat, and a pair of elegant gold-wire glasses on her face. The overall feeling is heroic and slender.
Her small kun bag was placed on the square table, and at her feet was a rectangular suitcase more than a meter long, like a violin box, the kind carried by the black-clothed guards in the courtyard, and I don't know what it contained.
Jiang Meilu took off her gloves and said with a smile:
"Mr. Xiang, I want to thank you. Thanks to you, I've switched back to another game. Hehe, this time the factory supervisor arranged for me to work with Mr. Xiang. ”
Xiang Xiaoqiang didn't know what kind of medicine they were selling in their gourd, so he laughed and said:
"Director Jiang, speak quickly, I can't beat you in dumb riddles."
Jiang Meilu smiled:
"Since we're going to do things together, we have to be open. At the beginning of the year, I was under the factory superintendent, this ...... Something went wrong and he was temporarily transferred to the second game. Although the Governor has been ordered by His Majesty this time, the fewer people who know about this matter, the better. Because it was me and Mr. Xiang that day...... Well, let's talk about it, I am the only one in the East Factory who understands Mr. Xiang, and it is inconvenient to involve others. In addition, I was originally in charge of the first game and the second division, and now it is just right to come back and take charge of this matter. Mr. Xiang, hehe, isn't this a blessing from you? ”
The first bureau of Dongchang is mainly against the Qing Dynasty, and it is the most important among the bureaus. The first three points of a game are the most important of all.
The first was called the Intelligence Department, and its main task was to send regular spies to various important departments of the Qing Dynasty to collect intelligence and develop spy networks. The spies here are the most secretive and high-class.
The second department is called the Rear Enemy Division, which is mainly responsible for developing underground organizations in the Qing occupation areas, leading various anti-Qing gang organizations among the people, providing them with weapons, funds, training, etc., as well as conducting radio broadcasts and distributing propaganda and printed materials in the Qing occupation areas. This division is more complicated, does not focus on direct intelligence gathering, and is more political in nature.
The third place is called the Operations Department, which directly goes to the Qing occupied area to carry out assassination, sabotage and other tasks, and it is full of agents and killers. Generally smaller, tasks that are not suitable for commandos are carried out by them.
Jiang Meilu is now reinstated and is still the director of the second division.
This armed rescue, such a big operation, and it was Dongchang bypassing the government and secretly cooperating with the royal family to do it, it is not very light, and there may be heavy casualties, it is unrealistic to draw manpower from Dongchang on a large scale, and the three places will definitely not be able to do it, so they have to rely on Xiaoqiang to lead the team to do it. In addition, the operation of clearing the occupied area was indispensable for the cooperation of the local underground organization, so the factory supervisor arranged Jiang Meilu from the second place to cooperate with him.
Jiang Meilu simply hinted at a few words, and Xiang Xiaoqiang knew it.
Jiang Meilu looked at Marquis Zheng and asked carefully:
"Master Hou, this ...... You've negotiated with Mr. Xiang, right? ”
Zheng Gongyin smiled, looked at Xiang Xiaoqiang, but said to Jiang Meilu:
"The other conditions have been discussed, and Mr. Xiang is quite satisfied, but the specific figure of remuneration has not yet been discussed......
Xiang Xiaoqiang also smiled and waved his hand to interrupt him:
"Master Hou, wait until the numbers are all negotiated, and finally say. I don't know the specific situation yet, to put it mildly, I don't know how much life is alive and how much death this thing is, so, haha, let's talk about things first, and the numbers last. ”
Jiang Meilu was stunned for a moment, and looked at Zheng Gongyin, meaning why did you get it here before you could negotiate it. This Xiang Xiaoqiang doesn't listen to the remuneration figures, which means that he has not made the final decision, that is, he has to listen to all their secrets before he can do it. It's really good to seize the initiative!
Zheng Gongyin smiled and said to Jiang Meilu:
"What Mr. Xiang said also makes sense, after all, this is to ask people to gamble with their lives, and it is reasonable to be cautious."
Jiang Meilu hesitated for a moment, feeling that it made sense, so she nodded and smiled:
"Well, being so cautious as Mr. Xiang is the style of our intelligence mouth. It's easy not to promise, but if you promise, you'll do it with all your might. If you come up and pat your chest, you can't be reassured. Master Hou, right? ”
She smiled, first took out a flannel cloth from Kun's bag, spread it on the mahogany table top of Marquis Zheng, and then bent down and lifted the rectangular violin case with great difficulty, and gently placed it on it.
Xiang Xiaoqiang saw that this violin case was very heavy, and it would not be a violin. Those guards just now also had one in each hand, probably some kind of firearm.
Jiang Meilu glanced at him, smiled slightly, "snapped" to unlock the lock, and lifted the lid.
A familiar figure lies in the violin case.
- American Thomson M1928 submachine gun.
……
"Oh," Xiang Xiaoqiang suppressed his wildly beating chest and smiled, "It turned out to be a Chicago violin." ”
Both of them were stunned:
"Chicago violin?"
"This gun also has a nickname, it's called Chicago Typewriter," Xiang Xiaoqiang nodded, "This Thomson submachine gun is a favorite of the Chicago gangsters, and it is indispensable for bloody street fights." The sound of its gunfire is a bit like that of a typewriter, and the mafia called it the Chicago typewriter. Because they also like to carry it in a violin case, they also call it the Chicago violin. ”
The two of them looked at him, both showing a look of surprise and admiration, and secretly thought to themselves: In the end, it is from the British MI6, but it is different.
In fact, because of the Chicago mafia, the "Chicago Violin" has become famous in the arms circle at this time. It's just that Marquis Zheng is just a marquis, and although Jiang Meilu is from Dongchang, he doesn't touch this. If she had been in the Three Operations Divisions, she would have known.
Xiang Xiaoqiang walked over as calmly as possible, reached out to take the gun, the gun was much heavier than he thought, and Xiang Xiaoqiang didn't pick it up. He quietly increased his strength and grabbed this famous World War II gun.
This gun is quite beautiful, with a wooden guard under the barrel in the front, a wooden butt in the back, a steel middle section, and a thirty-round magazine with a straight handle inserted underneath.
In the mid-thirties, submachine guns were still very few, basically did not appear in the armies of various countries, and they were rare in the army. In Xiang Xiaoqiang's memory, there were no decent submachine guns at this time. Thomson is so successful that it is an outlier.
Jung Kyung-in is a man after all, and men are naturally interested in weapons. He leaned over and said with some curiosity:
"That's what the palace guards out there use. At present, except for the Praetorian Guard Regiment and the Commando Team, there are no other troops in the Ming Dynasty. Xiao Xiang, you know a lot, how do you say this kind of gun? ”
Xiang Xiaoqiang didn't know if Hou Ye was really curious or wanted to test him. He smiled slightly, held the gun in one hand, stroked it with the other, and said with sophistication:
"This gun is good, with a fast rate of fire and fierce firepower, with a theoretical rate of fire of 800 rounds per minute, which can be said to be the fastest automatic weapon with the fastest rate of fire today. Well, there is another one, the MG34 machine gun that Germany just equipped with last year, and the rate of fire is about the same as it. That gun isn't very well-known, you probably don't know it. But when it comes to the shortcomings, it's also obvious that it's too heavy, the whole gun is 4.9 kilograms, nearly ten kilograms. There are also too expensive, complex structures, and a large amount of equipment, which is unbearable for ordinary countries. ”
Jiang Meilu looked at Xiang Xiaoqiang, almost feeling inferior. It's all about intelligence, and he's been working for at least nearly ten years longer than him, but he doesn't know anything, he knows everything......
Zheng Gongyin patted Xiaoqiang on the shoulder and sighed:
"Xiao Xiang is really good, there are two hits. How's that, this gun is a good game, how many rings can it hit? ”
Xiang Xiaoqiang said very calmly:
"I haven't used it."
The two were stunned for a moment, and smiled at Xiaoqiang:
"I really haven't used it, and our intelligence port is the same as Da Ming, mainly not relying on guns, but relying on brains. Such a fierce guy is only used by commandos. This Director Jiang understands. ”
Hearing him say this, both of them were relieved. However, when he said that he would not use a submachine gun, he was still a little disappointed.
Jiang Meilu smiled slightly:
"Mr. Xiang, if you have one gun for each person, is the firepower enough?"
Xiang Xiaoqiang was shocked, this thing has one for everyone, and the firepower is enough. He asked:
"How many people can I command?"
Jiang Meilu glanced at him and said with some hesitation:
"Probably not much...... Because the government does not cooperate in this matter, and the army cannot provide support, everything is done by His Majesty himself. Well...... Even the plane has to use His Majesty's own landline, so there is only one, and due to this restriction, even Mr. Xiang, you, cannot exceed fifteen people. ”
Fifteen people limit? That's probably the Junkers-52 as well. The German design of this kind of aircraft was so successful that everyone from Hitler himself to the Ming and Qing dynasties loved to use it.
But there are so few people. Fourteen Gege used 1,000 people to escort the car, and we used 15 people to carjack. Fifteen against a thousand, the odds are enough.
Xiang Xiaoqiang frowned and asked:
"If the commandos don't come out, where are you going to come from?"
Jiang Meilu showed that hesitant expression again, and said with a hypocritical smile:
"Hehe, Mr. Xiang...... Speaking of manpower, although their combat effectiveness may not be as good as that of the commandos, they are definitely politically clear...... Oh, speaking of which, they'll be very loyal to you! ”
Xiang Xiaoqiang was stunned: Loyal to me?
At this time, Zheng Yuxuan hurriedly ran in, and Jiang Meilu hurriedly smiled at Miss Marquis.
Zheng Yuxuan ignored her, she saw Xiang Xiaoqiang, smiled at him, and then said to her father:
"The two are here."
"Okay," Zheng Gongyin smiled, "bring them here." ”
After a while, two tall and short men in black trench coats looked around and probed their heads in.
The two of them first nodded and saluted the three people in the room one by one, and suddenly stared at Xiang Xiaoqiang's face and exclaimed:
"Uncle?!"
