Chapter 433: How much is the Japanese division commander worth?
Zhou Weihan had to admit that among the many crazed Japanese officers, Isamu Teuchi was indeed a rare exception.
Temple Isamu's governance philosophy is tantamount to alleviating the oppression on ordinary people in the Handan area.
Although the original idea was to make money, it undoubtedly brought a glimmer of hope to the lives of the people who had been torn by war for a long time, and also won the hearts of the people in disguise. "Okay, Mr. Terauchi, let's talk about business!" Zhou Weihan interrupted and continued.
Be brave enough to speak your mind freely.
When business was mentioned, Si Naiyong was visibly shaken. He knew the purpose of Zhou Weihan's trip.
"Li Daben told you before that the body of Tian Daoshengwu, the commander of the 41st Division, is in our hands. I wonder if Mr. Temple is interested?" Zhou Weihan asked with a smile.
"Of course, before the big sweep was over, General Gangcun ordered the intelligence department to investigate whether Tian Daoshengwu's body had been taken away by your army. Unexpectedly, Zhou Jun gave me an unexpected surprise!" Isamu Terauchi said excitedly.
His beard twitched: "Then what kind of price is it?"
Faced with this sudden military success, Isamu Terauchi certainly would not refuse and took the initiative to ask for the price.
Both parties involved are human beings, and now it's time to compete for every penny.
What Zhou Weihan has to do is to drive up prices: "Terauchi-kun, as far as I know, no officer of the rank of the division commander of your army has ever been captured. There are two precedents of being killed in battle. The former division commander of the 35th Division
The commander of the regiment is Maeda Haru, and the commander of the 108th Division is Yamashita Fengwu!"
How Yamashita Fengwu died was clearly understood by the two people present. Zhou Weihan led the cannons, and Terauchi Yong led the others to collect the body. Speaking of which, this should be regarded as the first time for the two to cooperate.
"However, Tian Dao Shengwu was the first one whose body fell into our hands. Last time, Sakata Nobutetsu got back a lot of weapons and equipment!" Zhou Weihan deliberately didn't finish his sentence, just to whet the appetite of Terauchi Isamu.
When Isamu Terauchi heard this, he immediately became anxious: "Mr. Zhou, the situation now is very different from before. The previous purchase of Nobute Sakata was approved by the headquarters. That was the decision made by Yoshio Shinozuka, but now this matter has alarmed the police.
General Gangcun, given General Gangcun’s personality, would definitely not make this deal. You must know that his nephew crashed and disappeared during the battle with your army. He was suspected of being captured by your army. General Gangcun did not take the initiative to send anyone to fight with you.
Contact your army!"
"If General Gangcun knows about this, your army will be surrounded and suppressed by heavy troops in the future!"
"The arsenal in Handan has not yet been put into production. Our department's supplies can only be transported from Shimen. There is really no excess for trading!" Terauchi Isamu explained.
Zhou Weihan nodded after hearing this. What Terauchi Yong said was true. Most of the supplies shipped from Shimen had repaid the previous transaction of buying back the rails.
"What about exchanging people for people?"
"Youxi, this is so big!"
Both parties were happy with Zhou Weihan's proposal. Even if half of the material supply reserves of the Tainan Military Region were handed over to the headquarters, there would be no shortage within the next year.
Terauchi Isamu has also tasted the benefits of this. He already had experience in recruiting people from Shimen Concentration Camp and Taiyuan Engineering Camp, and he was even more familiar with the implementation this time.
Among the subsequent rescued personnel, Zhou Weihan even left 300 comrades in the Tainan Military Region. Now these people are studying in the Tainan Cadre School.
Zhou Weihan stretched out a finger: "One thousand people!"
"No, no, no, Mr. Zhou, it's not about the price. The more than 800 people I fished out last time were so strong that it took half a month to complete the task!"
"You opened your mouth so big this time, please forgive me that it's hard for me to complete it!" Isamu Terauchi said, stretching out a hand: "Five hundred people at most!"
"Eight hundred!"
"Deal!" Isamu Terauchi responded decisively.
Zhou Weihan couldn't help but secretly cursed the profiteer, and then the two of them had a detailed exchange of ideas on future development issues for both parties.
In addition to being rich, Terauchi Isamu is really poor now.
This month, the scheduled monthly transactions could not be completed, and all the clean rats in Handan's arsenal had to escape.
"Then, Mr. Zhou, just wait for my good news!" Isamu Terauchi bowed again, turned around and left the private room.
Zhou Weihan greeted the monk outside the door: "Monk, find a waiter to pack the food and take it away!"
The three of them then stayed in the private room for a while. As soon as they went out, Kang Shunzi was waiting at the door of the private room.
"Boss Zhou, my brothers have prepared something, take it back to the comrades on the mountain to try!" Kang Shunzi saw the monk greeting the waiter before, and guessed that Zhou Weihan and others were going to pack meals.
How could Kang Shunzi not seize such a good opportunity? He immediately had ten roast chickens prepared and ten elbows wrapped in oil paper.
"Thank you so much, brother, for your kindness, Brigadier Kang. It's funny, it's funny!" Zhou Weihan then motioned to the monk and the two men to take the things.
"Boss Zhou, I'm giving you a ride!"
Zhou Weihan didn't care that the other guests looked at them like country bumpkins, and the three of them took their things and swaggered out of Juxian Tower.
Under the escort of Kang Shunzi, Zhou Weihan and the others successfully left Handan City.
"Master, it's so worth it to come back to Handan City. Not only can you eat well, but you can also take it away!" the monk said with a silly smile.
"Stop fucking with the ink, the political commissars are still waiting for us on the mountain!" Zhou Weihan scolded with a smile.
Zhou Weihan left Handan City around 8:30, and it was already dark. Even on horseback, it took him more than two hours, and he returned to Yamawang Mountain at nearly 11 o'clock.
The headquarters on the mountain is brightly lit. Some time ago, Zhou Weihan had someone pull a wire from Wuyi County. Now the whole Yamawang Mountain is connected to electricity.
As soon as Zhou Weihan entered the headquarters, he saw Zhao Gang and several others sitting together, all staring at each other with big eyes.
"Hey, let me tell you, what time is it? Are you still awake?"
"Sleep, you fucking went to Handan City, can the rest of us sleep?" Zhao Gang said angrily.
"Hey, I'm back now. The mission has been successfully completed and I brought back delicious food!"
"Monk, the roast duck, elbow, and roast chicken on our table will be taken out separately, and the rest will be sent to the cooking class!"
In order to calm everyone's complaints, Zhou Weihan opened the packaged oil paper himself and fanned them with his hand: "Smell it, does it smell good?"
"You are popular in the city and drink spicy food, but we are scared in the mountains. You have some conscience and know how to bring something back!" Zhao Gang said, drooling non-stop.
"Eat?" Li Yunshan asked.
"Eat, if you don't eat, it's free!"
A few of them got started directly. In terms of fat and water in their stomachs, they were not much more than a monk, but they were much more polite when it came to eating.
"The elbow is not bad, but the roast duck is cold!" Zhao Gang held a duck leg in his hand and his mouth was full of oil.
