Sitting alone in the room, although the tea cup in his hand had long since lost its temperature, Tang Cheng still sat in the chair as he did when Niu Laogui left. He was still thinking about what Niu Laogui said just now.
Niu Laogui, who was sent to Wuhan by Tangcheng, did not meet Huang Hanju. Huang Hanju, who used to dislike martial arts, had left Wuhan and went to Kunming. Huang Hanju, who was appointed to the rank of colonel, is now the deputy director of logistics management of the Southwest Administration. Niu Laogui
When we arrived in Wuhan, Huang Hanju had already gone to Kunming to take up his post.
Huang Hanju was promoted to a military position. Tang Cheng knew that this must be Mrs. Huang's idea. She, a cheap sister, had an idea, but she didn't wait in Wuhan, so why did she go to Kunming? This somewhat made Tang Cheng puzzled.
Madam's thoughts: The things copied from the traitor landlord's house have been entrusted to Madam Huang, but Niu Laogui said that the Huang family was dealing with the property in Wuhan, and judging from their posture, they were preparing to follow Huang Hanju to Kunming.
Tang Cheng sighed softly and picked up the envelope that Niu Laogui brought back from Wuhan from the table. It contained a letter written by Mrs. Huang to himself. He tore open the envelope and opened the pieces of writing paper filled with words.
After just one glance, Tang Cheng smiled. I originally thought that a lady like Mrs. Huang should be a little bookish when she wrote letters, but I didn't expect that the entire article was written in vernacular, and there was a complete atmosphere of Jianghu in the lines.
The word "loyalty" is reflected in the handwriting of the article.
Huang Hanju's trip to the Southwest Administrative Office was completely unexpected by Tangcheng. Even Mrs. Huang herself did not expect that going to Kunming would mean that the Huang family's plan to establish relations with the American Consulate would change. Mrs. Huang knew that Tangcheng was now
The situation was worrying, and Niu Laogui happened to have escorted a large number of valuable things to Wuhan, so out of selfish motives, Mrs. Huang tried her best to trick Tang Cheng into going to Wuhan. Tang Cheng knew that Mrs. Huang had a backstage in Wuhan, but
He didn't know whether Mrs. Huang's backstage could defeat the 88th Division, which was the main reason why he spent a long time alone in meditation.
"Forget it, let's not think about it for now." He couldn't figure it out and simply stopped thinking about it. He put the letter away and Tang Cheng, who had changed into a clean military uniform, stood up and left the room. Liu Shitou, who had followed Niu Laogui back from Wuhan, was squatting
In the corridor, I was bragging and chatting with a few lightly wounded soldiers from the Second Company. When I saw Tang Cheng coming out, a few people stood up in a hurry. Liu Shitou smiled and came up to hand the polished shell gun to Tang Cheng, while quietly winking at the wounded soldiers.
wink.
"Where are the other people? Why are there only you?" In the past, there were always a lot of people gathering at the entrance of Tangcheng, but now there were only Liu Shitou and the others. Tangcheng looked around and saw no other people, and couldn't help but wonder in his heart.
Looking at Liu Shitou, who was preparing his military uniform. Although he had suffered heavy casualties after fighting for two consecutive battles, his popularity was not lost. Tangcheng was still a little uncomfortable with the sudden absence of idlers gathering at his door.
"Everyone has gone to the backyard. Old Northeast said he wanted to interrogate those captured traitors. Uncle Niu went to the warehouse to see the seized weapons and ammunition." Liu Shitou, who was sorting out the military uniforms for Tang Cheng, carefully adjusted the gun for Tang Cheng.
He pouted and replied with some dissatisfaction. Tang Cheng sent him and Jiu Jin to Wuhan. He originally wanted them to follow him to Chongqing, but Mrs. Huang wanted Tang Cheng to go to Wuhan, so Liu Shitou volunteered to follow Mr. Niu.
Gui came back to act as a lobbyist, but he didn't expect that the first time he came back, he saw Tangcheng covered in blood.
Everyone had already followed him back. Tang Cheng could not force Liu Shitou to go back to Wuhan alone. Besides, he also knew why Liu Shitou ran back. Tang Cheng had no choice but to let Liu Shitou stay in Macheng temporarily.
Tang Cheng walked toward the backyard with two shell guns in his belt. Liu Shitou followed closely behind Tang Cheng. Tang Cheng did not blame him for sneaking back on his own initiative. Liu Shitou couldn't help but smile widely.
Mouth.
Niu Laogui, who had just returned from Wuhan, was taking two people in the backyard to look through the weapons and ammunition piled up. He was not interested in the rifles that were still stained with blood. All his attention was focused on those two
Heavy machine guns. Heavy machine guns are a good thing. Although the movement speed of heavy machine guns is not as good as light machine guns or submachine guns, its range and lethality are extremely powerful. Niu Laogui even heard those guys who fought in the Battle of Shanghai say
However, someone once used this Japanese heavy machine gun to shoot through the Japanese iron pellet tank.
"This thing is a good thing. It would be nice if there were more guns." Niu Laogui, who didn't know that Tang Cheng was standing behind him and rubbed his chin with his hand, was still squatting in front of the heavy machine gun and marveling. In front of Niu Laogui
The two heavy machine guns on display were captured by Tangcheng from the Mitsui Squadron. Next to the heavy machine guns were three Japanese light machine guns and two 50mm grenade launchers. Other Japanese 38 rifles and three
Four kinds of domestically made rifles were piled up in a small pile, and it looked like there could be more than 300 of them.
"These are the only two guns that the brothers snatched from the Japanese army with their heads high. You can stand and talk without pain in your back. If you want to buy a few more guns, I'm afraid that even if we put all the second company in, we won't be able to get what you want."
Quantity." I wanted to come and see what Niu Laoguizi was doing, but as soon as I came over, I was amused by Niu Laogui's soliloquy. Tangcheng couldn't help but laugh. The sudden voice behind him scared Niu Laogui.
After a jump, he turned around and saw Tang Cheng. Niu Laogui felt relieved and took out a cigarette and handed one to Tang Cheng.
"Do you know what is the most valuable thing in Wuhan now?" Niu Laogui lit the weapons in front of him with the cigarette in his hand, "It's these things. All the rifles that the Huang family brought to Wuhan were sold by Huang San on the black market.
, when I was selling guns in Bengbu for food, a Mauser rifle only cost 15 yuan. Huang San’s piece of shit, Hanyang, was sold for 16 yuan. It’s really valuable.” Niu Laogui
At this time, his eyes were shining brightly, and Tang Cheng was thinking in his mind whether Niu Laogui had regarded these weapons as a white ocean.
"The Huang family has sold all their guns, what about Huang San and his servants?" After a few chuckles, Tang Cheng suddenly thought of a question. Huang Hanju went to Kunming, and the remaining Huang family were old, weak, women and children.
Huang Sanzai sold the rifle of the servant team, what about the safety of the Huang family? Could it be that Mrs. Huang deceived her to go to Wuhan to protect the Huang family's women and children? The more Tang Cheng thought about it, the more wrong it became.
Niu Laogui flicked the ashes from his cigarette before replying, "Huang San and the others still have a dozen short guns. In a place like Wuhan, who dares to go out with a servant carrying a long gun without waiting for you to go out and take a few steps?"
, they were definitely arrested by the military police on the street with their guns, and in the end they had to spend money to rectify the disaster." After hearing Niu Laogui's answer, Tang Cheng realized that he had gone astray, and Mrs. Huang continued
If you love money, you won't get rich with a dozen rifles.
"Are these things real? Will they cause trouble?" Tang Cheng, who was blushing, changed the subject in time and changed it to a topic that Niu Laogui was interested in. Niu Laogui was indeed very interested in inverted weapons.
, perhaps stimulated by Huang San, Niu Laogui did not answer Tang Cheng's question immediately, but squatted down again, looking at the pile of rifles in front of him and mumbling something, as if he was calculating something in his mind.
Tang Cheng did not interrupt Niu Laogui's murmurings, and casually opened the ammunition boxes and looked through the bullets and grenades in the ammunition boxes. Tang Cheng's rule for cleaning the battlefield was always to return the particles to the warehouse and remove the corpses.
All personal belongings and other seized weapons and ammunition must be turned over for centralized storage. Therefore, the three boxes of grenades in front of Tang Cheng should be all the seized grenades. It looks like there can be fifty or sixty of them.
The captured grenades were all in good condition, and with the addition of these fifty or sixty Japanese grenades, Tangcheng no longer envied the mortar of the garrison, although the mortar was still given to the garrison himself.
Tang Cheng of the regiment had come into contact with Japanese weapons when he was in Qiandeng Town. He also saw this Type 92 heavy machine gun when fighting the Japanese army in Nanjing, but this was the first time for him to observe it up close like this. The Second Company
There is no shortage of machine gunners, but they are only novices who can fire bullets out of Czech light machine guns. As long as they are strong, they may be appointed as machine gunners by Tang Cheng. Tang Cheng is not sure if any of his men can handle this Japanese style.
Heavy machine gun man.
From the diaries unearthed from the corpses, Tang Cheng already knew that the person with the highest military rank who was killed this time was a Japanese major. The Japanese major named Mitsui Yuuo had died in Kucaogou, and his sergeant sword was here.
It was placed on the table in his room. According to the common sense that Liu Yangyang told Tang Cheng, the Japanese majors usually commanded troops above the squadron level, which is consistent with Tang Cheng's speculation.
According to the number of Japanese troops and the number of traitors and plainclothes, even if the Japanese and puppet troops were defeated and some of the enemy troops were dispersed, Tangcheng still estimated that the rifles seized this time would be at least no less than 300. If according to Huang
Calculating the price of three shots made in Hanyang, these 300 rifles alone can be exchanged for at least 4,500 yuan, and the loot this time is not only these rifles, but also hundreds of short guns and a large number of short guns seized from those traitor plainclothes.
Bullet, thinking of this, Tang Cheng suddenly came back to his senses. It seemed that he had forgotten to ask Niu Laogui one more thing.
What to do with the firearms brought to Wuhan with those boxes? Tang Cheng suddenly remembered that Niu Laogui went to Wuhan not only for those boxes, but also the weapons and ammunition snatched from the bandits on the road with them, so he took them with him
The grenades and machine guns were left behind, but all the rifles were taken to Wuhan by Niu Laogui. Niu Laogui just brought a letter back to himself, but did not mention the rifles. He wondered how much money he could get in exchange for the pile of weapons in front of him.
Come on, Tang Cheng finally realized what he had forgotten.
