Wei Erxi was stunned for a moment, and he didn't react for a long time. After a while, he asked stupidly: "Junzao, how did you know about this?" Wang Haitao became even more angry when he heard this, and said: "If you don't tell me, I won't know?

Wang Haitao still said with a cold face: "A small matter? Your life's big things are also small things? Let me ask you, what are you going to do with Wang Meili now?" Wei Erxi smiled bitterly and replied: "Junzao, I am still fighting with Little Japan, what can I do? If I beat Little Japan away and I am still alive, I will ask the military seat to be my master and marry Miss Wang." ”

Wei Erxi's words made Wang Haitao's face look good, and Wang Haitao said: "When I went to Shanghai last year, Liu Shiping told me about it, and Wang Meili also talked to me. Beauty is a good girl, you kid can't let people down. I'm going to Shanghai in two days, this time you go with me, I'll be a big matchmaker, and you can marry Miss Wang back for me!"

Wei Erxi was taken aback, and couldn't help but say: "Junzao, you didn't make fun of me, did you? I haven't even told my parents about this? This is too sudden, right?" Wang Haitao heard Wei Erxi say this, so he said: "Okay, you are also the eldest child, Miss Wang's heart is in you, don't be verbose." I'll help you with your parents. You go and get ready first, and then follow me to Shanghai in two days. ”

Wei Erxi said goodbye with a smile on his face, and when he left, Wang Haitao asked him to call Wei Hai again. Wei Hai is Wei Erxi's cousin, and Wei Erxi was recruited by Wei Hai into the army, Wang Haitao felt that this matter should be communicated to Wei Hai first, if Wei Hai had no opinion, Wang Haitao was ready to go to Wei Erxi's house with Wei Hai and talk to Wei Erxi's parents about it.

Wei Hai came to Wang Haitao's office in a daze, and after seeing Wang Haitao, Wei Hai asked, "Junzuo, are you looking for me?" Wang Haitao nodded, and told Wei Haiyi about Wei Erxi, from front to back. After listening to this, Wei Hai said: "No wonder this kid is happy, it turns out that he has a good thing! The girl who can be seen by the military seat will definitely not be bad, this kid is blessed!"

Listening to Wei Hai's somewhat envious tone, Wang Haitao said, "What's the matter, are you tempted? Why don't I see a suitable one for you to find one again?" Wei Hai smiled a little embarrassed and replied: "Military seat, forget it, I don't have the heart to think about these things now, those recruits under my command are enough for me to worry about." Wang Haitao took the time to go to Wei Erxi's house with Wei Hai, Wei Erxi's family was too late to be happy when they heard Wang Haitao say this, how could they object?

After Wang Haitao finished serving the affairs in the barracks, he left Tangshan Leopard and Tang Xiaoshan at home to take care of the training of recruits, and only brought a squad of guards and two combat teams of the reconnaissance brigade, as well as Wei Erxi to Shanghai together. Wang Haitao They used two military trucks on the road, and at this time on the battlefield of Wuhan, the national army was still resisting the attack of the Japanese army.

After arriving in Nanchang, the front line of the exchange of fire between the national army and the Japanese army was in front, Wang Haitao changed the direction of Zhejiang, until he arrived in Jingdezhen, he put the truck into the storage ring, and the group walked to the mountains of southern Anhui. The mountainous area of southern Anhui is Wang Haitao's former base camp, and when he enters the mountainous area of southern Anhui, Wang Haitao is like returning home, and the whole thing is like a fish in water.

The Japanese army was busy attacking Wuhan, and there were simply no extra troops to attack the mountainous areas of southern Anhui, as long as the Chinese troops in the mountainous areas of southern Anhui did not go out to attack them, then everything would be fine. If Wang Haitao still led his troops in Jing County, he would never make it so easy for little Japan, but now these national army teams staying in the mountainous areas of southern Anhui, as long as the Japanese army does not attack, it will be a great achievement, who will have nothing to do to provoke the Japanese?

Only the New Fourth Army was still using small groups of guerrillas to constantly make trouble for the Japanese army's transport teams, and at the same time, it was not constantly expanding its base areas. Wang Haitao did not alarm these troops in southern Anhui, but led the soldiers quietly through the mountainous areas of southern Anhui and came to the outskirts of Shanghai. Along the way, Xiaoxing stayed overnight, and walked for more than half a month before coming here from Guangxi.

Wang Haitao and all the soldiers changed into civilian clothes, put all the guns and weapons into the storage ring, and after dressing up in disguise, they entered Shanghai in batches. After everyone gathered in front of Wang Haitao's residence, Wang Haitao asked his men to call the door. Last time, Wang Haitao left a detachment of soldiers in the capacity of a nurse, and also left a radio station, and this time Wang Haitao also used the radio to contact these soldiers before returning to Shanghai.

As soon as the soldier stepped forward to call the door, there was an immediate reaction in the door, and the soldier who opened the door confirmed the identity of Wang Haitao and his party, and welcomed Wang Haitao into the house. Liu Shiping's family was also very excited to see Wang Haitao, and Liu Shiping also called out one by one. When Wang Haitao called Wei Erxi over, Liu Shiping was even more excited, and Wang Meili threw herself into Wei Erxi's arms desperately and sobbed.

During the period when Wang Haitao left Shanghai, these soldiers who stayed behind were still very conscientious, and they had a thorough understanding of the situation in Shanghai. After listening to the reports of these soldiers, Wang Haitao already knew the basic situation in Shanghai.

Time was relatively tight, and Wang Haitao took two guards the next day to Lihe Foreign Bank on Jiangxi Road. After Wang Haitao reported the names of Rennes and Donald to the gatekeeper, the gatekeeper immediately went to report, and soon came out to lead Wang Haitao to the office of Rennes and Donald.

Wren and Donald saw Wang Haitao, and after a short period of surprise, they gave Wang Haitao a European hug with a happy face, and then said: "Thank God, I finally met you Colonel Wang Haitao!" Donald's title made Wang Haitao stunned for a moment, the last time he came, Donald called himself Mr. Wang, why did he call himself Colonel this time?

Donald then said: "Colonel Wang, our German Empire has declared war with Britain and France, do you know about this?" Wang Haitao nodded to indicate that he knew. Donald added: "Colonel Wang, I have received a telegram from the Krupp headquarters not long ago, asking us to contact you with the idea of foreign banks in China, and to mobilize you to the headquarters in Germany as much as possible. ”

Wang Haitao asked a little strangely: "Why did you mobilize me to go to the headquarters in Germany? You must know that my country is suffering from Japanese aggression, and I am also fighting to defend my country." Donald shrugged his shoulders and said, "What happened is not detailed in the telegram, but this may be what the Führer meant." Isn't Colonel Wang also a colonel officer of the German Empire? Colonel Wang should obey the call of the Führer!"

Wang Haitao replied: "Please reply to the headquarters, I will not leave my motherland until my country has defeated Japan and driven all Japanese troops out of our territory." Donald sighed and said, "Okay, I'll call back to HQ and tell them your answer." By the way, did you come to me today for something?"

Wang Haitao nodded and replied, "Exactly." Mr. Donald, do you know that Guangzhou City has been occupied by the Japanese army? As soon as Guangzhou is lost, the large quantities of steel and steel pipes that I ordered from the United States, as well as oil, chemical raw materials, and non-ferrous metal materials, will not be able to be shipped in. ”

After hearing this, Donald shook his head and replied, "Colonel Wang, these supplies are in short supply, and my country is also at war, so I don't have any extra supplies for you." Donald's words made Wang Haitao's heart cold, and he said: "Can you ask Manager Donald to see the good relationship between me and the Krupp headquarters, and find a way to help me?"

Donald shook his head again and said: "Colonel Wang, it's not that I am willing to help you, it's just that I really don't have these things you want, and now only the United States will sell these materials to the outside world in the world, and an American freighter loaded with steel docked at the port of Shanghai two days ago." As far as I know, the buyer of the cargo on this freighter is Japanese, and after the ship is replenished, it will still sail to Japan.

Wang Haitao learned that the freighter named "Liberty" will be replenished at noon tomorrow, and after continuing to sail, he immediately attracted the attention of this freighter, Wang Haitao had some ideas, and said goodbye to Donald, at Donald's request, Wang Haitao told Donald the address of Shanghai, so that he was able to leave.

Out of the Lihe Foreign Company on Jiangxi Road, Wang Haitao took two guards straight to the cargo port in Shanghai, and in the berth of the cargo port, Wang Haitao found the "Freedom" cargo ship. After finding out the situation in this port and some conditions outside the "Liberty", Wang Haitao returned to the residence with the guards. As soon as he returned to the residence, Wang Haitao called all the soldiers together and told them clearly that he was going to touch the "Freedom" freighter tonight and try to steal the supplies on board.

Although the soldiers were reluctant to take this risk in person, this matter could only be done by Wang Haitao, who had a storage ring. Wang Haitao saw that no one said anything, so he began to assign tasks. The two reconnaissance teams brought in, one team was responsible for the guard on the cargo port, and the other team followed him on the cargo ship, and the guards of that squad and these people who had stayed in Shanghai were led by Feng Erxi and were responsible for the pick-up on the way from the residence to the cargo port.

After allocating any, Wang Haitao let everyone rest, and all the staff will set off at 11 o'clock at night. At eleven o'clock in the evening, Wang Haitao and the soldiers who had been equipped with guns and ammunition left the residence, and according to the different tasks, they disappeared into the darkness in two directions. Wang Haitao and the two reconnaissance teams had just quietly arrived at the cargo port.
