Sure enough, Li Pinxian took out a piece of paper from the briefcase beside him and said, "Commander Wang, the commander-in-chief and the command headquarters hope that Commander Wang will still use the power of his family to buy a batch of such advanced weapons for our group army, this is the list." Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info" said as he handed the piece of paper to Wang Haitao. Wang Haitao took the paper and looked at it, which read: 10,000 rifles, 2,000 submachine guns, 200 wheel machine guns, 50 heavy machine guns, and 2 million rounds of ammunition.

Looking at the list, Wang Haitao calculated in his heart that there were 22,000 semi-automatic rifles in the arsenal, of which he had taken out 6,000 last time, 15,400 submachine guns, 200 of which he had taken out, 6,100 light machine guns, 250 of which he had taken out, 500 heavy machine guns, and 80 of which he had taken out. In this way, except for semi-automatic rifles, which are not quite sufficient, there are no problems with anything else.

However, now that the military factory can already produce light weapons, I asked the military factory to mainly produce semi-automatic rifles, plus 5,000 in the warehouse should be enough. But what price should I quote to them? According to the import price of a new K98 rifle of nearly 20 US dollars, Wang Haitao has a price in mind. A semi-automatic rifle is worth $30 a piece, a submachine gun is $50, a light machine gun is $80, a heavy machine gun is $150, and 10 rounds of ammunition are $10.

Wang Haitao wrote down the prices on paper and calculated a total of $691,000. After finishing writing, Wang Haitao returned the paper to Li Pinxian and said: "Chief Li, according to the price of the last purchase of firearms by his subordinates, his subordinates have calculated the total amount, which is the delivery price in Guangzhou, and I will show the commanders. Li Pinxian and Ye Qi looked at the paper together.

When they saw the total amount, Li Pinxian and Ye Qi both gasped, this amount would cost nearly 1.66 million yuan in the ocean, which was indeed not a small amount. After Li Pinxian and Ye Qi glanced at each other, they said to Wang Haitao: "Commander Wang, go back first, this matter will be decided after we report to Commander Bai." Wang Haitao didn't say anything, stood up, saluted and withdrew.

In the afternoon of the same day, a herald found Wang Haitao and ordered him to rush to the county government immediately, and Commander-in-Chief Bai wanted to meet him in person. Wang Haitao got the order and immediately rushed to Bai Chongxi in person. This time, Wang Haitao met Bai Chongxi in the reception room, accompanied by Li Pinxian and Ye Qi. Wang Haitao saluted, and after Bai Chongxi politely invited Wang Haitao to sit down, he didn't talk nonsense and went straight to the topic.

Bai Chongxi said: "Head Wang, the price you mentioned Li and Ye have already reported to me. After research, in view of the excellent performance of these guns, our Fourth Army decided to spend this money to purchase these guns. Head Wang still needs a lot of hard work. If this matter is accomplished, I will reward you for your meritorious deeds and mention that the Longzhou County Security Regiment is an independent brigade under the 170th Division of the Seventh Army, and Regiment Commander Wang will be promoted to major general and brigade commander of the Independent Brigade. What do you think?"

After listening to Bai Chongxi's words, Wang Haitao secretly pondered: "It seems that this Bai Chongxi is very appreciative of these firearms, and he is determined to get them, so why not take advantage of this time to ask for some benefits, and when will he serve?" Thinking of this, Wang Haitao said: "Thank you for the appreciation and allocation of the commander-in-chief and the commanders." It's just that our Independent Regiment now has 4,500 officers and men, and its monthly military salary will cost 17,000 yuan.

Wang Haitao's words surprised Bai Chongxi and the others, and Li Pinxian asked: "Is the military salary of your security regiment distributed in the ocean? Why don't you use treasury bills? Don't you know that the state is now banning the circulation of silver and using paper curtains?" How could Wang Haitao not know about the currency reform of the Nationalist Government today? However, the depreciation of paper money occurs every year, and he does not want to discourage the army because of the depreciation of paper money. But he could not say this.

Wang Haitao had no choice but to say: "When the subordinates set up the security regiment last year, they promised that all the future military salaries would be paid in the ocean. Li Pinxian replied: "Since you have become a member of the Fourth Group Army, the military salary should be paid according to the same as the departments of the Fourth Group Army, otherwise how can other troops be brought?" Bai Chongxi saw Wang Haitao bowing his head and was silent, and his mind turned to an idea.

Bai Chongxi said: "Commander Wang, after your troops become a member of the Fourth Army, they naturally can't be special. However, the group army can pay you a special monthly allowance to make up for the shortfall in your salary. But I want you to help the army group produce 1 million rounds of ammunition every year by the military factory, and also repair the damaged guns of the group army, of course, the necessary materials will be provided by our group army. How's that going?"

Wang Haitao thought: "I crossed back to fight the Japanese devils, this Seventh Army is the army that will participate in the Songhu battlefield and participate in many battles in the future, once I join the Seventh Army, I can justifiably go to the anti-Japanese front, in fact, I am willing to pay money." The conditions offered by Bai Chongxi are also generous, even if they have a request, they should accept it when they see it. ”

Thinking of this, Wang Haitao replied: "My subordinates have thanked the commander-in-chief and the commanders for their kindness. The subordinates are ready to leave for overseas, and they will definitely help the Fourth Army complete this task no matter what. Bai Chongxi and the other three saw that Wang Haitao had agreed to the conditions, and they all had smiles on their faces. Bai Chongxi said: "Head Wang is not in a hurry, and it is the same to go after the New Year." Wang Haitao agreed: "Yes, sir." However, with so many firearms, the other party may not be able to take out a cash loan at once, and it may take a while. ”

Bai Chongxi replied: "You only need to ask the other party to deliver the goods in the shortest possible time, and after the goods arrive in Guangzhou, we can pay for the goods after we have inspected the goods." After you go to the talks, when you return to China, you should immediately go to the headquarters of the Fourth Army in Nanning to report the situation to me or to Generals Li and Ye. Wang Haitao saluted and said, "Yes, the subordinates will definitely do what the commander-in-chief said." After finishing speaking, Wang Haitao saw that there were no more servants to be handed over, so he said goodbye and left.

The next day, Bai Chongxi and his entourage left Longzhou County by car and went back to Nanning under the farewell of Wang Haitao and the county magistrate Bai Zi'an, and Wang Haitao also returned to the barracks to deal with the backlog of military affairs in the past two days. Wang Haitao didn't know that after Bai Chongxi's promise to him spread, it caused some people to be dissatisfied, and the most fierce reaction was Liao Tian, the cousin of Liao Lei, the commander of the Seventh Army, and the colonel of the 101st Regiment of the 170th Division of the Seventh Army.

The 101st Regiment of the 170th Division of the Seventh Army was the No. 1 main regiment of the Fourth Army, with a full strength of more than 3,000 people. After Liao Tianqian was the commander, he walked sideways in the Seventh Army, and other officers looked at Liao Lei's face, and secondly, the first regiment was indeed strong, so Liao Tian was given three points in case of trouble, which also made Liao Tian even more arrogant in the Seventh Army. That's why there is disdain and hostility towards Wang Haitao in the auditorium of the security regiment.
