"If you hadn't asked me, I would have almost forgotten it." Tang Cheng asked about the batch of firearms brought to Wuhan. Niu Laogui, who had been squatting, stood up, and the two of them walked to the corner of the backyard in tacit agreement.
, Liu Shitou, who received Tang Cheng's hint, looked around in case someone on the other side heard the conversation between Niu Laogui and Tang Cheng. "The thing has been sold, and the money has been given to Mrs. Huang. I heard the buyer still wants it."
I couldn’t make the decision about big things like light machine guns, so I brought them along.”
Tangcheng did not blame Niu Laogui for taking his own initiative. He just lowered his head and smoked, thinking in his mind. The firearms that Niu Laogui brought to Wuhan were not just a few dozens of firearms, but a total of 340 rifles, and three carriages were taken.
The boxes are full, and the buyers who can buy such a large number of firearms are probably people with some background. Niu Laogui brings such people to Macheng. I don’t know whether it is a blessing or a curse. “Let’s go and see what you have brought.”
"People." Tang Cheng threw the cigarette butts under his feet and stamped them out. No matter it was a blessing or a curse, since he was here, he couldn't avoid it, so why not just go and see him.
It was indeed a bit reckless for Niu Laogui to rashly bring people to Macheng. Today's Macheng is not the only one in Tangcheng. There is also Sun Liansheng who is holding back his bad temper. If Sun Liansheng finds out about it, he will be defeated twice in a row.
Guns, any charge can wipe out Tangcheng's head. "Huang San introduced him, and I sold the things on the second day after arriving in Wuhan. I saw that the other party paid very quickly, so
I just went to meet them and knew they wanted a big guy, so I brought them to Macheng."
Niu Laogui wanted to say that he would drive away those guys who wanted to buy machine guns, but seeing that Tang Cheng's face did not mean to blame him, he swallowed back the words that were already on his lips. The two fought several battles in a row.
At the end of the day, more than half of the casualties were lost, and there were no more than 40 people who could fight with guns. However, the second company now had 6 light and heavy machine guns plus 6 light and heavy machine guns. 40 people had 6 light and heavy machine guns. This was too eye-catching, at least.
Take half the shots to avoid attracting the covetous attention of Sun Liansheng.
As Niu Laogui led Tang Cheng to the front yard, he whispered to Tang Cheng about the buyers, "That group of people said they were from Sichuan, and the leader was a man named Yang. They said they were
The soil dealers, I don't think these people are just joining the ranks to earn a living. Anyway, this is our territory. If something goes wrong, just kill them." Tangcheng knew that what Niu Laogui meant by the soil dealers was
Those who sell tobacco. When Tang Cheng was a child and followed Robert to preach in Sichuan, he often encountered caravans who specialized in selling tobacco. Those people all carried guns.
"We'll talk about it first. If we really find something wrong, we'll shoot." Tang Cheng's words made Liu Shitou, who was following them, widen his eyes. He had already reached out and opened the holster on his waist. Niu Laogui
The people brought back from Wuhan had been waiting in the front yard. Two of Heizi's men were talking with them. When Tang Cheng appeared in the front yard with Niu Laogui and Liu Shitou, Heizi's two men gave Niu a secret message.
Lao Gui winked, the meaning of which was only known to the three of them.
Heizi and three of his men were born bandits, and most of the people who trafficked cigarettes were bandits. Niu Laogui asked Heizi's men to talk to those guys, in order to find out the details of the gun buyers.
Seeing the three people from Tang Cheng appearing in the front yard, several men who had been sitting in the pavilion in the front yard stood up. They had been dealing with Niu Laogui, and they had learned about Tang Cheng from Niu Laogui's mouth.
Existence. Seeing Niu Laogui walking behind Tang Cheng, he understood that this young boy who looked like a big boy was the little company commander Niu Laogui mentioned.
"Company Commander Tang is indeed a heroic young man. I have always heard Deputy Niu Company talking about what a heroic young man Company Commander Tang is. Yang thought that Company Deputy Niu was joking. When I saw him today, I realized that Yang was wrong. It was disrespectful and disrespectful."
The man surnamed Yang was so humble that Tang Cheng mistakenly thought that the man standing in front of him was not here to buy a gun, but that he looked like a traveling shopkeeper. There were six men in total who came to Macheng from Wuhan with Niu Laogui, but Tang Cheng said nothing.
, just looked around silently, giving the impression that Tangcheng wanted to keep the looks of these six people in mind.
After a few words of greeting, everyone sat down at Tang Cheng's signal. But when the other six people sat down as instructed, Tang Cheng's eyes flashed with doubts. Just when the man surnamed Yang sat down just now,
Tang Cheng suddenly found a familiar feeling in him, but suddenly Tang Cheng couldn't remember where that feeling had appeared. Unable to find the answer, Tang Cheng had to pretend to light a cigarette to cover up.
Lost my mind just now.
Tang Cheng is secretly observing these talented men, and the other party is also secretly observing Tang Cheng. The 88th Division is the direct lineage of the **, and Tangcheng will not be over 10 years old. There will be no one in the 88th Division who is not over 10 years old.
No one could figure out that the 88th Division, a 20-year-old lieutenant company commander, was not a place where one could become an official. In the battles of Shanghai and Nanjing, the 88th Division suffered a lot of casualties. Xu noticed the look in the eyes of the man surnamed Yang.
Tang Cheng smiled, "Mr. Yang is doubting my age?"
"Lao Yang, don't look at the young age of our company commander. He has fought against the Japs in both Shanghai and Nanjing. The number of Japs he killed can't even be compared to veterans like me." Niu Laogui, who was boasting, took advantage of him.
He took out the southern pistol that Tangcheng had just given him and slapped it on the stone table in the pavilion. "Our second company just repelled a group of Japs yesterday. The Japs and traitors plus 400 people were beaten by our company commander and his men.
Only less than 100 people escaped, and these are the trophies captured."
Niu Laogui's bragging made the man surnamed Yang flash an inexplicable look in his eyes. He took the southern pistol that Niu Laogui pushed over and played with it a few times. When he looked up at Tangcheng, his eyes were full of heat. "No wonder Chief Tang is so old.
He became the company commander of the 88th Division at a young age, and his ability to fight against Japanese invaders is extremely powerful and amazing." The man surnamed Yang gave a thumbs up to Tang Cheng, who could only smile and shake his head, saying he was lucky.
It was a deliberate flattery, and it was a fluke. The awkwardness when they met just now dissipated a lot, and the conversation between the two parties became much smoother.
Although what Niu Laogui said is the same, the man surnamed Yang came to Macheng just for the machine guns. In the words of the man surnamed Yang, it was to prepare for the war with another group of people who had repeatedly robbed their caravan. "Chief Tang, we Ming people will not say anything.
Secretly, we are here just for the machine guns this time. If we have the machine guns in our hands, and Xu Mazi and his gang come to rob us again, we will keep them safe until they come back. As long as your machine guns are willing to be used, we can easily discuss the price.
." The man named Yang had a sincere attitude, and Niu Laogui was obviously persuaded by him in this way.
It's a pity that Tangcheng is not Niu Laogui. He has been wandering the streets since he was a child in Peiping. When he grew up, he followed Robert to Shanghai. He met people from all walks of life, including lone thieves and bandits.
Young, but this is the first time he has seen a cigarette dealer like Yang. People who work in gangs and lakes all have a murderous aura in them. The five Chinese characters that the man surnamed Yang brought have murderous aura, but they
They all lacked a trace of evil spirit. Tang Cheng felt that these people were not like cigarette dealers, but more like soldiers like himself.
After exchanging some pleasantries, Tang Cheng made an excuse and took Niu Laogui back to the backyard. "I think you made a mistake this time. These people are definitely not selling cigarettes. I think they are just like us."
A man with a gun." Tang Cheng's words shocked Niu Laogui. Although he knew that this young company commander was a smart guy, Tang Cheng said that he had made a mistake. Niu Laogui had to argue a few words. Tang Cheng
He stretched out his hand to stop Niu Laogui's argument and continued, "Didn't you pay attention to their actions when they sat down just now? Their hands were placed on their knees in a regular manner. Only trained soldiers would do this."
Tang Cheng's words were actually a bit far-fetched. The actual reason was that he remembered where the familiar feeling came from. When Tang Cheng snatched the truck from the Japanese army with nine kilograms that day, he unintentionally snatched it from the Japanese army.
There was a man and a woman. The man named Song Bo claimed to be a ** person. Tang Cheng also sold a batch of firearms to Song Bo. When he saw the man named Yang just now, Tang Cheng felt that there was something familiar about him.
The feeling, if you think about it carefully, the feeling in the man named Yang is the same as the feeling Song Bo gave him.
Hearing that Tang Cheng said that these people who came to buy guns were probably from the Communist Party, Niu Laogui immediately turned pale, and even his voice was deliberately lowered as he looked around. "What should we do? The Communist Party is going to be arrested.
We will be shot. If someone finds out that he is stabbed above or in the hands of the military commander, none of us will survive." Niu Laogui's fear is well-founded. The army he was originally associated with was purged once by the military commander. The regiment leader,
The battalion commander and the company commander were all shot and thrown into the river. The charge was that they had committed a crime.
Compared with Niu Laogui's uneasiness, Tang Cheng was very dull. The things he sold to Song Bo last time were not too small. It was okay to be different. As long as it was hidden, there was nothing to be afraid of. After returning to the front yard and Yang
The man surnamed Yang and the others were sitting in the pavilion. Niu Laogui had already softened his feet. All their conversations with the man surnamed Yang were in Tangcheng. Tangcheng, who already knew the details of the other party, was no longer reserved. According to what Niu Laogui had inquired in Wuhan
The price was given to the man named Yang and they were asked to pay in gold bars.
"Okay, it's settled, 300 rifles, two Japanese-style Type 92 heavy machine guns and two Japanese-style light machine guns. Three days later, we will trade in Wulipo outside the city. We will get the money and the goods.
"Smiling Tang Cheng saw off the six men named Yang. After returning to the pavilion, he saw Niu Laogui. This veteran who was not afraid of the Japanese army actually had his back wet with sweat.
