Wang Haitao didn't know that Chief of Staff Su was studying him, and he didn't have the heart to think about it so much. What he was thinking about now was how to find a way to get some money back as soon as possible. Because although there are still hundreds of thousands of oceans in the storage index, the speed of using your own money is too fast. The brigade now has more than 10,000 horses, and the monthly military salary alone is nearly 40,000 oceans, as well as food and drink.

Although the hospital does not need to invest any more money by itself, the military factory is only a gold-swallowing beast, and there are still three months before the metal raw materials from the United States will be sent to Guangzhou, and then it will be another expense, so it seems that the hundreds of thousands of oceans in the storage ring will not last long.

According to his own ideas, the money will be collected from the Japanese. Then I should go to Shanghai as soon as possible. Not only did they have to get some money from the Japanese trading houses, but they also had to take people to familiarize themselves with the terrain and roads of Shanghai, so as to make some preparations for the Battle of Songhu two years later. By the way, I will also go to the Japanese secret service in Shanghai to see if I can find something useful there.

It's just that the troops have just been stationed in Binyang County, and there are too many things to deal with, and there is a new chief of staff of the Soviet Union, and he does not know much about this chief of staff of the Soviet Union, so how can he hand over the troops to him with peace of mind? It seems that we will have to wait a little longer before the trip can be made.

In the following days, Wang Haitao grasped the training work of the troops, and at the same time gathered the soldiers of the guard company to learn Japanese, whether it was a quick trip to Shanghai or the War of Resistance against Japan two years later, dealing with the Japanese was inevitable, so it was necessary for the soldiers to learn some Japanese.

A few days later, Japanese sounds such as "Khoni Siwa" [hello], "Oh Ha Yi Mas" [good morning], "Misi Misi", and "Sanyu Lala" were often heard in the dormitory of the guard company.

Twenty days later, the troops gradually became familiar with the county seat of Binyang, and the dormitories for officers and men were all completed and put into use. And things in the army are basically smooth. Wang Haitao planned to leave for Shanghai.

According to Wang Haitao's calculations, his group went to Shanghai and took a boat from Guangzhou, and they should be able to return within a month by boat, even if there is an accident, it will not take more than two months. It should be possible to receive metal materials from the United States in time.

But what excuse should I use to ask Bai Chongxi and Liao Lei for two months of leave? After thinking about it for a long time, Wang Haitao was ready to ask for leave in the name of helping the military factory purchase raw materials.

After thinking about this, Wang Haitao began to make some preparations. He first secretly summoned Tang Yisheng, deputy director of the logistics department, Tang Longzai, head of the 512th Regiment, and Tang Yikuan, head of the 513th Regiment.

Wang Haitao said to them: "Everyone, I need to take the guard company to Shanghai once recently, and this time I will go to Shanghai for at least one month or two months at most. You guys are here to help me take care of my home, and the troops must always be in their hands. I am not very reassured by the Chief of Staff of the Soviet Union. However, on the surface, a few people still have to obey the Su Staff Factory, if there is anything, as long as it is not a fundamental matter, they will listen to the Su Chief of Staff, and everything will wait for me to come back. ”

The three of them replied at the same time: "Don't worry, this Chief of Staff of the Soviet Union is alone, and he can't make any waves here." ”

Wang Haitao nodded and said, "That's good, the three of you are headed by Tang Longzai, don't take it lightly." ”

Tang Longzai replied: "Knowing the brigade, we will bring you the troops." ”

The next day, Wang Haitao rushed to the headquarters of the Fourth Group Army and asked to see the commander-in-chief Bai Chongxi. Bai Chongxi was in the office, and when he heard that Wang Haitao, the commander of the Independent Brigade, asked to see him, he was allowed at that time.

After Wang Haitao came to Bai Chongxi's office, he stood up and saluted and shouted: "Commander Bai is good!"

Bai Chongxi smiled and returned the military salute and said, "Haitao, is there something wrong with coming to see me in such a hurry?"

Wang Haitao replied: "Commander-in-Chief Bai, Haitao is here this time because I want to ask Commander-in-Chief Bai's approval. ”

Bai Chongxi was stunned for a moment and asked, "What is the matter?" ”

Wang Haitao replied: "Haitao wants to ask for leave to go to Shanghai once. ”

Bai Chongxi asked strangely, "Okay, what are you doing in Shanghai?"

Wang Haitao replied: "That's right, Haitao brought back a lot of heavy artillery from Germany last time, but there were not many shells. One is that it is not easy to transport, and the other is that the shells are too expensive. Therefore, Haitao wanted the military factory to produce its own artillery shells, so Haitao specially asked the director of the military factory. The director of the Rolf plant said that there was no problem technically, but the production of artillery shells required a large amount of raw materials such as copper, zinc, dock steel, and high-explosive gunpowder.

If all these things are imported, the price is too high to afford, so Haitao wants to go to Shanghai once to see if we can buy these materials from China, if so, the cost of shells will be much lower, and we can produce shells ourselves, and we don't have to beg the Germans anymore. ”

Bai Chongxi said happily when he heard this: "Very good, Haitao, your vision is very long-term, but are you sure that you will go to Shanghai this time? When will you go, and how long will you go?"

Wang Haitao replied: "There are some sure, Haitao is ready to leave as soon as possible, and the time will be as little as one month, and at most two months will definitely be able to come back." ”

Bai Chongxi said: "Okay, I approve this matter, you go to Shanghai on a business trip, and the expenses will be reimbursed, and I will notify you to issue an official letter below." ”

Wang Haitao said happily: "Thank you, Chief Bai, Haitao has taken his leave." ”

After Bai Chongxi nodded, Wang Haitao saluted and left Bai Chongxi's office.

After receiving the official letter, Wang Haitao returned to the barracks and immediately convened a meeting of officers at and above the company level of the brigade. At the meeting, Wang Haitao explained that he would take the guard company to live in Shanghai on a business trip, and announced that during his absence, Su Zuxin, chief of staff, would be responsible for all the affairs of the independent brigade, and asked everyone to obey the command of the chief of staff of Su.

After the meeting, Wang Haitao left Su Zuxin and said: "Chief of Staff Su, I will go to Shanghai this time in at least January, and at most in February. You can do whatever you want to the officers below, don't give me face, and for the disobedient person, you remember him, and I'll clean him up when I come back. ”

Su Zuxin said: "Lvza, you can leave as soon as you say this, and throw all the mess at home to me, can you rest assured?"

Wang Haitao said with a smile: "What is there to worry about giving to you, you are also an expert in leading soldiers, and it is enough to have you in your usual training." It's not that you can't handle daily affairs, so what's not to worry about?"

Su Zuxin also smiled and said, "That's good, I'll take this home as a family." ”

Wang Haitao also smiled and nodded.

Early the next morning, Wang Haitao led one hundred and fifty soldiers of the guard company, divided into four trucks, from the camp to the port of Guangzhou, from where they would set foot on the land of Shanghai for the first time.
