Chapter 128: Equipment of the Two Reorganization Divisions

The four of them did not stay long in Heyang City, and the next day they left in a truck carrying supplies, and a transport plane flew from Henan to Wuhan on the way, where they could reach Shanghai by water.

Deputy Regiment Commander Zhao in the county town set up a simple banquet last night, and the two sides made contact, and Zhang Yang also learned some inside information from the wine table, that is, the reason why Chongqing sent two military commanders to accompany him was that in addition to protecting the safety of himself and Perez, he still had more requests from Chennault, or from the US military.

Zhang Yang once made a low-key inquiry about the news of the US military in China, and in addition to the Flying Tigers, the main form of US assistance was material and weapon assistance, and the national army also obtained a batch of new American-made equipment.

However, in the early days of the Anti-Japanese War, the national army and the German side have always had a cooperative relationship, and the principal's descendants and ace army are also standard German-style equipment. Many of the brand-new equipment that the Germans did not have much equipment and sent it all to China. For example, the shell gun, which is called the "box gun" by the Chinese, is a German product. Of course, in exchange, the abundant non-ferrous metals in China have become bargaining chips. Therefore, although the Japanese and German are allies on the surface, in fact they still take what they need.

In this way, the major powers of various countries seem to have formed a strange relationship, the alliance between Japan and Germany, but the German army secretly supplies the national army with weapons and equipment, while on the other hand, the United States and Britain are fighting against Germany, and China is also an ally. If these tangled relationships are really true, it's really hard to say.

For example, right now, after the Normandy landings. The German army was in a two-front stalemate, with the Soviet Union in the east and the Allies led by Britain and the United States in the west. Italy, an unreliable ally, had already surrendered and turned its guns against Germany after joining the Allied forces. In this way, the aid received by the national army from Germany was naturally reduced, but fortunately, there were still Americans on the same front, in addition to the Flying Tigers, they also sponsored some weapons.

Some time ago, reporters from the United States came to China to conduct interviews. At the same time, by the way, I did a fact-finding investigation, and of course the results of the investigation shocked them. Thanks to the cooperation of the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, these reporters also received special approval from the Communist Army. At that time, the communist army was relatively poor in terms of equipment and conditions in all aspects, which also aroused the sympathy of this press team. The United States is in humanitarian considerations. Another batch of weapons and strategic materials was sponsored, but problems followed.

The focus of these reporters' reports is not on the national army, but on the communist army, which leads to the question of the ownership of this batch of weapons and material aid.

If it is said that it is the communist army, the national army confirms that the reporters were invited by them, and the ownership of the weapons is naturally the national army, but if it is said that it is the national army. These reporters mainly reported on the communist army, and the Kuomintang and the Communist Party held a special consultation for this purpose. The result was unpleasant. After all, the difference between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party is still very big at the moment, although this batch of American-style equipment is not too much, but for the Kuomintang and the Communist Party who are fighting with their family backgrounds, they can take a little bit of it, and everyone wants to get their hands on this batch of weapons.

And with the beginning of Deputy Commander Zhao, Xu Jingman, a woman, finally told the truth, and Zhang Yang knew that this batch of weapons support from the United States has two whole divisions, rifles, bullets and artillery, all of which are standard brand new American goods. This is not the obsolete goods of those cheating fathers, it is not much worse than the German-style equipment of the Imperial Forest Army next to the principal, and it is said that there may be a second batch of sponsorships, but after all, there are more words "maybe" in front. Where is the current batch of goods to come steadily? It is no wonder that the Kuomintang and the Communist Party have gone to great lengths to do so.

If the equipment of these two divisions had been placed in the hands of the communist army, the communist army would have the confidence to form three divisions, and it would have been an open-board expansion of the ranks. Naturally, the national army did not agree, so how could it watch the communist army grow?

The speed of development of the communist army shocked the national army, and in just a few years, the communist army has grown to such a point, not to mention that there are many underground elements, all of whom have secretly joined the communist army. Although it was nominally a joint anti-Japanese effort, the principal never gave up his vigilance against the communist army, which led the communist army to want to get this batch of supplies, but the national army obstructed it in every possible way, and by the way, he also wanted to grab the materials into his own hands.

Originally, some people mentioned that the Kuomintang and the Communist Party should each account for half, but the people on the national army immediately disagreed, thinking that at least seventy percent had to be taken. The communist army is even more unlikely to watch good things being taken away, so although the two sides formally negotiated once, there was still no result.

And at this critical time, Zhang Yang and Perez appeared, but because of the safety problems on the itinerary, Chennault of the Flying Tigers was contacted, and the pervasive military commander immediately noticed the difference in the identities of the two. Obviously, if it was just an ordinary American soldier, it would be impossible for Chennault to send someone to contact Chongqing, and Chongqing immediately paid attention. While dispatching agents of the military command to track down the true identities of the two, with a wave of his hand, he directly granted Zhang Yang a special pass, which made the way unimpeded.

It can be said that Zhang Yang and Perez at this moment are like a pillow that has fallen in the eyes of both the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, not to mention that the authority to approve the pass is still in the hands of Chongqing?

The Chongqing side of the ghost realized that this was an opportunity, and this is why the two agents, Xu Jingman and Yao Hu, accompanied them all the way. And Zhang Yang also understood why he and Perez had not been in China for a long time, and they were approached by agents from both the Kuomintang and the Communist Party one after another, it seems that if it is not Shanghai and Hong Kong that he is going to, he needs to use Chongqing, which is the home of the south, but the north, it is estimated that the people who are staying next to the two now are not military commanders, but underground intelligence officers of the communist army.

"What's this called?"

Hearing the cause and effect, Zhang Yang is also the first two big, and this batch of strategic materials jointly sponsored by the US Congress and the Army has a dime to do with him?

He is a small lieutenant colonel, and if he is in the territory of Phillips and Spatz, two people who are more familiar with each other, he may still be able to speak a little, but this is a decision of the top of the Army and Congress, and the two sides can't fight together.

Zhang Yang had a headache.

As the saying goes, eating people with soft mouths, taking people with short hands, after a bit of wine and meat, Zhang Yang only understood that this was a small Hongmen banquet. I am afraid that Deputy Head Zhao had already been instructed by Chongqing in advance to listen to his own tone.

After three rounds of drinking, although the dishes on the table are not too rich, but the other party has put a lot of thought into it, this person wants to eat something good, and it is really not easy to get it in such a small county. People from all walks of life have died too much, and today's meal is still the only restaurant in the county that is still in business. The only thing he knows is that this trip to China is probably not to think about peace.

"Mr. He, come, drink."

Deputy Head Zhao was still persuading him to drink while holding a wine cup.

Zhang Yang and Perez are both pseudonyms, his is He Siyuan, Perez's is Morpheus, Deputy Head Zhao is more affectionate than the other in Mr. He's mouth, who let this be a task sent down from above?

It doesn't matter who the final owner of that batch of materials is, it has nothing to do with the 211 regiment anyway, although the chairman of the committee is all German-style equipment, but no one thinks that there are many of them, and the quality of American goods is just right. You don't have to grab it first, as for whether to put it in your own warehouse and sell it at a high price, that's all for later.

Deputy Head Zhao, who wanted to understand this, could also see it, so he regarded it as a way to pick up the wind and wash the dust for the people above, anyway, someone reimbursed the money, and he didn't feel distressed.

“……”

was stared at by Xu Jingman and Deputy Head Zhao, Zhang Yang also felt that the more he drank this wine, the more it was not a taste, but he couldn't explain anything to the other party.

I don't know if Xu Jingman, a woman, is too shrewd, or the intelligence work of the military commander is too powerful, although she is accompanied by the blonde and blue-eyed Perez, but Xu Jingman's woman's gaze has never left her. He seems to be very sure that he has more say in this matter than Perez.

In fact, Zhang Yang thinks too much about this, no matter how powerful Xu Jingman is, she is just one person, she just relies on her years of rich experience, and subconsciously feels that between Zhang Yang and Perez, Zhang Yang is the one who really dominates. Even if Pérez is a "Frenchman".

Although there is a natural gap between the military command and the US intelligence, this does not mean that there is no way to unify the military at all. Not long after Zhang Yang and Perez entered the country, the military commander contacted the foreign personnel and tried to find out the identities of the two, but to their surprise, the two did not take much effort to find out, which seemed to be a little too easy.

Perez's French identity was obtained by the French aristocratic friend when he commissioned the assassination of Major General Lucas last time, and the military commander's investigation has been cut off here. As for Zhang Yang, the information is even less simple.

However, the more this is the case, the more the military commander confirms his guess, that is, the identities of Zhang Yang and Perez are definitely not just as simple as the surface.

This can't be complained about Zhang Yang's poor concealment of their identities, first of all, Zhang Yang, the reason why he came to China is naturally to take over those industries in Shanghai and Hong Kong, and if the military commander really wants to investigate in depth, I am afraid that he will still be able to investigate Uncle Ma's identity, and if he wants to find out his nephew, he will naturally be able to find out. This disguised identity is just used to confuse the line of sight on the surface.

And Perez, not to mention, whether it is the identity of a lieutenant colonel in the army, or the identity of the Rockefeller family with the qualification of heir, it is impossible to really expose. And Zhang Yang also plans to sell it after taking over the industry, and save it for those who have a heart.

The industry in the United States and Southeast Asia is okay, after all, it is abroad, and Uncle Ma's agent is in charge, and he did not come forward directly, and it takes a lot of effort for others to investigate. However, these properties in Shanghai and Hong Kong were all bought by Uncle Ma with real money back then, whether it was transferred or sold, Uncle Ma's identity could not be hidden for too long. However, it is also worth mentioning that Zhang Yang's arrival this time was not to use his right to be the next owner of these industries, but to pretend to be Uncle Ma's descendant.
