There was only a phone number and time on the note. Xu Huanshan, who read the note, understood in his heart that Tang Cheng refused to meet with him. Fortunately, Tang Cheng left the phone number and contact time, otherwise, Tang Cheng would completely interrupt the meeting with him.
Their own contact. The sparrows and others did not know the contents of the note, nor did they know the existence of Tangcheng. They only knew that Xu Huanshan was going to meet with an insider today. As for whether the insider was male or female, fat or thin, they
Don't know.
Tang Cheng, who was originally planning to enter the hotel and meet Xu Huanshan, suddenly changed his decision when he was about to reach the door of the hotel. Tang Cheng suddenly thought that Zhongtong's action today ended in failure. According to Zhongtong's work style, they would never do it.
Let's give it up. Tang Cheng, who was walking on the street, used the cover of the passers-by in front of him and looked towards the street entrance ahead. He happened to see a few plainclothes agents appearing at the street entrance, and judging from their appearance, they seemed to have locked onto this street.
street.
Tang Cheng, who was alert, immediately turned around and left, not choosing to enter the nearby hotel. However, Tang Cheng did not leave just like that. Instead, he wrote a note and asked the newsboy on the street to pay for it with two banknotes.
Send the note to the hotel. Xu Huanshan, who had already received the note, neglected one thing at this time. How did Tang Cheng know which room he lived in! After watching the newsboy enter the hotel, Tang Cheng turned around and left.
Didn't go far.
As Tangcheng expected, the few plainclothes agents who appeared at the street entrance had already entered the street and entered and exited the shops on the street from time to time, obviously looking for clues. Seeing that they were getting closer and closer to the hotel where Xu Huanshan was staying.
Recently, Tang Cheng's expression became more and more cold. He looked around, then secretly took out a bunch of firecrackers from his equipment bag and threw them on the street. The firecrackers crackled on the street.
Instantly attracting the attention of the plainclothes agents on the street, Tang Cheng retreated into the street at this moment.
Tang Cheng, who pretended to be flustered, stood on the side of the street and passed by the running plainclothes agents. He immediately speeded up and moved towards the hotel. It was the same newsboy just now. When he got the two papers handed over by Tang Cheng,
After issuing the money, they immediately ran into the hotel. Xu Huanshan and others in the hotel room faintly heard the movement outside. Just when they looked confused and confused, the door of the room was knocked again. "Are you?
Isn’t your surname Xu? Someone asked me to tell you that the goods have been put on the ship and that you should go to the dock immediately."
The newsboy just repeated what Tang Cheng told him, but when Xu Huanshan heard the word "pier"
, his expression immediately became serious. The word dock, in the code word agreed between Tang Cheng and Xu Huanshan, only meant one thing, and that was danger. Xu Huanshan, who was already alert, thanked the newsboy quietly, closed the door and turned around,
But he asked Ma Qiao and the others to leave the hotel immediately. "There may be a problem. Leave here immediately. You go first. Let's go to contact point three to meet."
Xu Huanshan didn't ask Ma Jiao and the others to pack their luggage. It was just a few rattan boxes and some clothes anyway, so it wouldn't be a pity to stay here. Xu Huanshan's prompt decision bought them valuable time. It had only been five or six minutes since they left the hotel.
The streets were blocked by a large number of plainclothes spies. After issuing the warning, Tang Cheng followed Xu Huanshan quietly. Seeing Xu Huanshan escape from danger, Tang Cheng turned around and left.
Not long after Tang Cheng returned to the military camp, he received a call from Deputy Commander Huang. The other person on the phone specifically said something embarrassing for the Central Government. "Brother, you were not in the city today, but I heard,
Zhongtong is in great disgrace this time!" Deputy Commander Huang on the other end of the phone laughed heartily on the phone. "They were fooled twice in a row today. I heard that the person they were chasing just used
I lit two strings of firecrackers and it made them dizzy, and now it’s spread all over the city!”
He thought that those two strings of firecrackers were thrown by him, but Tang Cheng, who answered the phone, still pretended to be ignorant and asked some questions, making Deputy Commander Huang on the other end of the phone complain about the Central President. Deputy Huang
After all, the leader was a local from Chongqing, and he knew the news in the city very promptly. He even knew the hotel where Xu Huanshan stayed. "I heard that Zhongtong was originally planning to capture a big fish of the underground party this time.
, but unexpectedly, they missed it one after another, and in the end they only found a few boxes and some clothes!"
Deputy Commander Huang, who spoke enthusiastically, did not know at this moment that Tang Cheng on the other end of the phone was secretly saying that he was lucky. If Xu Huanshan and the others had left a little later, they might have been blocked in the hotel by those plainclothes officers of the Central Government.
After talking about the Central Unification matter, Deputy Commander Huang on the other end of the phone changed the topic and mentioned the organization of armed personnel to Tang Cheng. "I have a brother in Neijiang. When the Sichuan Army mobilized its troops to march north, my brother because of
I was sick and recuperating, so I stayed in my hometown."
"At this point in the war, our Sichuan Army no longer needs to increase its troops. This brother of mine has a security group with almost the size of a battalion. I just thought, let him take people to Burma and stay there.
In a place like Neijiang, his security team will be disbanded sooner or later. People like them can only dance with guns and sticks. If they are disbanded and go home, there is no guarantee that they will not become a local scourge. Now it is a troublesome thing. His people,
Only half of them had weapons, the others still used swords and spears."
After hearing Deputy Commander Huang say this on the phone, Tang Cheng finally realized that this guy was asking for weapons and equipment. Tang Cheng, who was secretly happy, couldn't hold back and laughed out loud on the phone.
, "Old Huang, what do you want me to say about you? He, you didn't remember anything I told you last time!" Tang Cheng's words confused Deputy Commander Huang on the other end of the phone.
, but he had already forgotten what Tang Cheng told him last time.
"As I told you last time, as long as people go to northern Myanmar, there are plenty of weapons and equipment! The British did not like the Japanese equipment and weapons captured by the expeditionary force at all. Our troops are also equipped with American equipment. I heard
He said that all the Japanese equipment captured by the expeditionary force are now piled in warehouses waiting to go moldy. Not to mention that you only have one battalion of manpower, I can equip you with all the weapons and equipment of a standard A-type regiment!"
What Tangcheng is saying now is really not bragging. The first time Zhang Jianghe arrived in Myanmar, he received a large number of Japanese weapons and equipment captured from the expeditionary force. These weapons and equipment were invisible to the expeditionary force and the British.
However, the domestic army does not dislike them, especially heavy weapons such as artillery and light and heavy machine guns. But apart from these, Zhang Jianghe still has a large number of bolt-action rifles and bullets in his hands, and he does not know where to use them.
Tang Cheng's armed infiltration plan gave Zhang Jianghe the idea of dealing with these bolt-action rifles and bullets. Therefore, the battalion manpower mentioned by Deputy Commander Huang was not a problem at all. Tang Cheng's words gave Deputy Commander Huang
With greater confidence, this fellow changed his subject again and directly talked to Tang Cheng about the arms business on the phone. "Brother, since there are a large number of Japanese weapons in Myanmar and I don't know what to do with them, why don't we get them back! I'll tell you
You said, the Japanese rifles are pretty good, at least much better than the old Hanyang-made slides."
Deputy Commander Huang then
The explanation made Tang Cheng on the other end of the phone suddenly realize that there were also hunters in Sichuan. Deputy Commander Huang’s arms business was to sell these Japanese-style weapons captured from the Japanese army in Myanmar to hunters or landowners in Sichuan for use.
Looking after the home and nursing home. Deputy Captain Huang said with confidence, but Tang Cheng on the other end of the phone directly rejected Deputy Leader Huang's suggestion. "Old Huang, don't forget, Myanmar will be our basic base from now on.
!As long as we run Myanmar well, the income from just opening any mine will be enough for you to spend several lifetimes."
"If you think about it carefully, is it better to get rid of a few broken guns, or to maintain Myanmar well? Besides, you have to know that Myanmar needs a lot of manpower, and the captured Japanese weapons and equipment are for them.
Reserved. Do you want to watch our people armed with machetes and wooden sticks go to snatch the mines from the locals in Myanmar?" The explanation given by Tang Cheng made Deputy Commander Huang on the other end of the phone immediately understand, and he felt
He said that he almost made the mistake of catching a small child and enlarging it.
But Tang Cheng changed the subject and mentioned the matter of Orions to Deputy Commander Huang, "Old Huang, you just said that there are Orions in Sichuan, so I was thinking about recruiting some Orions to go to Myanmar. There are many mines in northern Myanmar.
The mines are all in the mountains, so the regular army is of no use at all, and they still have to rely on people who frequent the mountains and forests all year round." Tangcheng's idea of hunting hunters at this moment is naturally not only to maintain the mines, but also to prepare for continuing to go south in the future.
Deputy Captain Huang on the other end of the phone did not know about this. He just thought that Tang Cheng was really considering the mines in northern Myanmar, so he immediately agreed. After hanging up the phone, Tang Cheng, who was not in a good mood at first, just
He felt a lot more relaxed. Just as he was about to get up and leave the office, he immediately received another call from Xu Huanshan. The other party seemed to be really in a hurry and made an appointment with Tang Cheng to meet tonight. Tang Cheng did not refuse Xu Huanshan's request.
As for the request to meet tonight, he did not ponder why Xu Huanshan insisted on seeing him.
Time seemed to pass very quickly. Tang Cheng, who was in the military camp, just brokered a few deals and it was already getting dark. Seeing that the time was almost up, Tang Cheng excused himself to go home and left the military camp alone. Leaving the military camp
Tang Cheng first went to a courtyard in the city. After quickly completing his disguise, he quietly climbed out of the backyard and walked east along the alley behind. Tang Cheng did not agree on a meeting time with Xu Huanshan, but Tang Cheng knew
, Xu Huanshan will definitely wait at the place he provided until he waits for himself.
