Wang Haitao took the Tangshan leopards and them back to Longzhou City, while Wang Weikuan and the guerrillas went to northern Shaanxi with a large number of supplies, because Wang Weikuan had all the information about penicillin, and after consulting the Central Committee, the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee specifically requested that it be dragged to northern Shaanxi at all costs. Therefore, Wang Weikuan took this valuable information and personally embarked on the road to northern Shaanxi.

In northern Shaanxi, an enlarged meeting of the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee is being held, and the major leaders of the CPC Central Committee are gathered together, and the central topic is about building their own scraping factory to produce penicillin. The person presiding over the meeting was Ren Bishi, and after Ren Bishi explained the story in detail, there was a sound of discussion below. After a long while, someone began to speak.

In everyone's opinion, the people who support it are still the majority, and there are still some people who put forward practical difficulties such as funds, equipment, and technical strength. The opinions were summarized to Chairman Mao. Before this, Chairman Mao smoked a cigarette, quietly listened to everyone's speeches, and occasionally exchanged words with Ren Bishi. At this time, seeing that everyone had expressed their significance, Chairman Mao stood up.

Chairman Mao said in his calm Hunan dialect: "Comrades, everyone should be familiar with General Wang Haitao, from the time of the Battle of Songhu in 37 years, this person has been constantly helping our Communist Party, and later when he was stationed in southern Anhui, he took care of our New Fourth Army in many ways, and was forced to resign from the post of commander of the 90th Group Army. Although this person was a general of the Kuomintang, he was also a friend of our Communist Party.

Today, this friend, at the risk of a huge risk, gave us a complete picture of penicillin, an extremely important drug, and specially sent a thousand gold bars to build a factory. We should be glad to have such a friend. Now that the materials have been delivered, should I put it aside because of the difficulties? When have we communists ever been afraid of difficulties? Think about how many comrades-in-arms and how many comrades will be saved because of the penicillin produced by the pharmaceutical factory, and we should overcome all difficulties and set up this pharmaceutical factory!"

Chairman Mao's words caused a long round of applause, and after the meeting, Chairman Mao and Zhang Wentian, Ren Bishi, and several leaders stayed behind to continue to discuss the specific matters of building a pharmaceutical factory. In the end, this matter fell to the heads of * and Ren Bishi. At the end of the meeting, Chairman Mao said with some emotion: "This favor that General Wang Haitao gave to my party this time is too great, I'm afraid it's not good to return it, I really want to meet this General Wang Haitao." By the way, the affairs of the pharmaceutical factory must be kept absolutely secret, and the Kuomintang must not know about it, otherwise we will not be able to deal with this General Wang Haitao!"

Wang Haitao didn't know about the affairs of northern Shaanxi, and he was now on his way to Chongqing. Just three days after Wang Weikuan was sent away, a telegram sent to Wang Haitao by the Chongqing Military Commission was sent to the confidential room, asking Wang Haitao to immediately rush to Chongqing to attend an important military meeting. Wang Haitao arranged the affairs of Longzhou, and then set off with Tangshan Leopard, a guard company, and a reconnaissance company.

From the county seat of Longzhou to Chongqing, the best way to take the nearest should be to take the waterway, but after the fall of Wuhan, the waterway has been blocked, Wang Haitao and they can only start from Longzhou, take the highway through Yunnan and Guizhou provinces into Sichuan. This time, Wang Haitao not only brought ten trucks and two military jeeps, but also put some heavy weapons and equipment in the storage ring, including ten artillery pieces, heavy armored vehicles and two Cheetah tanks.

The road conditions on this road are not good, but fortunately, the soldiers who drive are all good hands, and they are used to driving in the mountains, so the road is quite stable. There was no need to worry about encountering the Japanese army along the way, Wang Haitao also relaxed and enjoyed the scenery along the way. After the convoy entered Guizhou, the mountains were endless, and the convoy was moving forward with difficulty on the simple road in the mountains.

The road conditions are very poor, and several times when the convoy is really unable to pass, Wang Haitao can only put the car into the storage ring first, and then walk all of them on a section, and then take out the car and continue to drive when the road can be opened to traffic. What made Wang Haitao most uncomfortable was that after entering Guizhou, there were a lot of mountain bandits, and sometimes he could meet mountain bandits who blocked the road twice a day.

For these mountain bandits blocking the road, Wang Haitao didn't care at all, when he met the other party who warned the other party first, and withdrew after listening to the warning, Wang Haitao didn't ask, but if he didn't listen to the oath, Wang Haitao would not be polite, and a burst of attacks made these mountain bandits who blocked the road dead and injured, and fled in a panic. Wang Haitao did not let the troops pursue, and even if the mountain bandits were beaten away.

Just like that, Wang Haitao and his entourage walked for ten days before they entered the boundary of Chongqing. When he arrived at the border of Chongqing, Wang Haitao put on his general's uniform neatly, and his subordinates also sorted out their military uniforms and equipment, cleaned the car, and drove the convoy towards Chongqing. When encountering the checkpoint, the Tangshan leopard in the first jeep will take the order of the Chongqing Military Commission to negotiate, and Wang Haitao does not have to come forward at all.

The convoy was stopped at the gate of Chongqing, and the officer on duty at the gate claimed that he had to report to his superiors before he could let Wang Haitao and them enter the city. It was a major who came, and the major got out of the car and came to Wang Haitao's car, and Wang Haitao also got out of the car.

After the major stood up and saluted, he asked, "May I ask if it is General Wang Haitao, the commander of the 90th Army?" Wang Haitao replied with a military salute: "I am Wang Haitao." The major said: "Hello General Wang, I am Ye Ziming, the adjutant of the major in the Office of the Military Commission, and I will be in charge of receiving you when General Wang is in Chongqing. Wang Haitao nodded and replied, "Then I'm going to trouble you, Major Ye." ”

After getting to know each other, Ye Ziming showed his documents and orders to the officers on duty at the city gate, and then led Wang Haitao and his party into the city. After the convoy circled around the city of Chongqing, and even Wang Haitao couldn't tell the difference between the southeast and the northwest, Ye Ziming's car entered a courtyard with a small western-style building. The car stopped, Wang Haitao also got out of the car, Ye Ziming ran over and said: "General Wang, this is the place where General Chen Cheng specially prepared for you, and you will rest here during your stay in Chongqing." General Wang has worked hard all the way, please go in and rest first, General Chen Cheng has prepared a welcome dinner in the evening, and I will come to pick you up at six o'clock for the banquet. ”

Wang Haitao nodded and replied, "Okay, I know." After speaking, he turned his head and looked at the small western-style building in front of him. A maid had already come out of the small western-style building, and Ye Ziming explained to the maid before he said goodbye and left. Wang Haitao's subordinates also got out of the car at this time, and after parking the vehicles, they lined up outside the building. Wang Haitao and Tangshan Leopard walked towards the building, and a servant who looked like a housekeeper greeted him and said: "Hello master, I am the housekeeper here, the master can call the little Ah Fu, and the master can directly order the little one if there is anything." ”

Wang Haitao saw that this person was already fifty or sixty years old, and his hair was half white, so he said: "I'll just call you Fu Bo, please Fu Bo find a place to arrange my subordinates first." After speaking, he stepped on the steps and walked towards the small building.

Wang Haitao didn't think about it at all, paper can't hold the fire, if Lao Jiang knew about this, what would be the result. Considering the limited funds of the Communist Party, Wang Haitao took out another 1,000 "big yellow croaker" (gold bars weighing ten taels and four nines) and prepared to give them to his grandfather as funds for setting up a factory. After doing this, Wang Haitao asked Tang Renli to take the approval from Chongqing and go to the pharmaceutical factory to bring back 500 sticks of penicillin and put them in his office.

When he returned home in the evening, after seeing Wang Weikuan, Wang Haitao was ashamed to control the old Jiang to death and the penicillin outflow, and he personally sent a telegram to ask for it, and then he gave 500 to Wang Weikuan. Wang Weikuan did not have the slightest dissatisfaction, in his opinion, Wang Haitao had done his best, and 500 was better than nothing. But when Wang Haitao took out the stack of paper with penicillin formula and process flow, and asked Wang Weikuan to tell the central leaders to set up his own pharmaceutical factory, Wang Weikuan was stunned.

Of course, he knew how valuable this stack of paper was, and if the central authorities really set up this pharmaceutical factory, how many soldiers' lives would be saved! When he received the stack of papers handed over by Wang Haitao, Wang Weikuan's hands trembled a little. Wang Weikuan said with a straight face: "General Wang, I promise you with the party spirit of a member of the Communist Party of China that we will defend the formula and process of penicillin with our lives, and promise not to leak a little." Please believe that we Communists will do what they say!"

Wang Haitao smiled and said: "Lao Wang, we haven't known each other for a day or two, I believe in your communists' behavior and deeds! I have also prepared a thousand "big yellow croaker" for you to take with you when you leave. Wang Haitao saw that Wang Weikuan wanted to refuse, and without waiting for him to speak, he continued: "Don't refuse, I know that your Communist Party is not well-off, and this is a little bit of my heart! This is for your Communist Party, not for you, you just need to hand it over." By the way, 500 sticks of penicillin are not small, can you take them?"

As soon as Wang Haitao said this, Wang Weikuan couldn't refuse, so he could only say: "Okay, then I will accept General Wang's heart on behalf of the Party Central Committee and express my heartfelt gratitude. Wang Haitao nodded and said, "That's without further ado, I'll go for Lao Wang tonight, and I'll send you away early tomorrow morning."

Early the next morning, Wang Haitao asked the first battalion of the guard regiment to pack 500 pieces of penicillin and load them into a truck, and asked Tang Renli to prepare weapons and ammunition for a guard company and load them into the truck. Then he personally took a battalion, drove a convoy of trucks mixed with medicines, weapons and ammunition, and drove out of Longzhou City together and drove in the direction of Baise. After walking another 20 kilometers out of the city, after entering the mountainous area, Wang Haitao saw Wang Weikuan, who was sent out of the city by Tangshan Leopard first, waiting on the side of the road, so he stopped the convoy.

Wang Haitao asked Wang Weikuan: "Old Wang, is the person who answered you here?" Wang Weikuan nodded, turned around and whistled on the mountain, only to see many figures emerging from the mountain. A Huaiwu man with a shell gun pinned to his waist walked to Wang Weikuan's side, nodded at Wang Weikuan, and then stared at Wang Haitao vigilantly.

Wang Haitao smiled disapprovingly and nodded at this man, and said to Wang Weikuan: "Lao Wang, your people are here, I will hand over the things to you, in addition to 500 penicillins, I have also prepared a guard company for you to equip equipment, please hand it over to your Chairman Mao, just say that it is a little bit of my Wang Haitao's heart, and ask him to form a guard company to protect himself." In addition, please forward these 1,000 gold bars as well. ”

After speaking, Wang Haitao waved his hand, and the soldiers of the guard battalion carried everything up, and Wang Haitao gave Wang Weilen one by one. When the man saw the whole box of gold bars and the box of munitions, his eyes were straight, and the way he looked at Wang Haitao immediately changed. Wang Weikuan also asked the people on the mountain to come down and carry things up the mountain, and then stretched out his hand to shake Wang Haitao's hand, and said: "Brother Haitao, I won't say much, you fight all year round, take care, and look forward to seeing you next time!"

Wang Haitao held Wang Weikuan's hand and replied: "Old Wang, you should also take care, if there is anything you need my help with, you just have to say, I still have the ability to help you! I look forward to seeing you again as soon as possible!" Wang Weiwan led the team up the mountain, Wang Haitao looked at his back, and Tangshan Leopard said: "Mountain Leopard, notify Xiaoshan, send a reconnaissance company to escort them secretly, and then return when they are safe." ”
