"Really?" Xu Rui said with a smile, "Sir Fu, can you help us settle this matter?"
"Yes, it can be settled." Fu Zuoyi said confidently, "Brother, although I don't have much ability, I can still settle this matter." After a pause, he added, "But to be honest, brother, it's so difficult these days. In the world, no matter what you do, you have to find someone to entrust you with a relationship. Brother, although I have some old relationships in Chongqing, if you ask someone to smooth the relationship, you have to manage it from top to bottom. You also know this, so, you know. "
Digua said disdainfully: "It's just asking our leader for money."
"You know nothing." Fu Zuoyi didn't bother to pay attention to the sweet potato, but his adjutant Yan Hu couldn't hold it in anymore. He glared and said angrily, "What do you mean asking for money from your captain? It makes us seem to be in charge. Like a beggar."
Digua couldn't help but laugh, spread his hands and said, "Hey, I didn't say that, it was you who said it."
"You didn't say it clearly, but that's what you meant." Yan Hu's mind was obviously not very good, and he continued to chatter, "You just want to say that our boss is a beggar, and we have to ask for help from your group leader. Money, right?”
Digua burst into laughter, but on the surface he still pretended to be serious and continued teasing Yan Hu: "Hey, hey, hey, I said, Lieutenant Yan, what you said is wrong. I really didn't mean it just now." . "
"Don't deny it." Yan Hu said sternly, "That's what you clearly mean. You clearly want to say that our boss is a beggar. Let me ask you, yes or no?"
"That's really not true." Digua laughed, "That's really not what I meant."
"You still dare to deny it." Yan Hu said angrily, "You just want to say that our main seat is..."
Seeing the two people having a heated argument over the issue of "whether Fu Zuoyi is a beggar?", Fu Zuoyi was so angry that his nose almost became crooked. Seeing that Yan Hu was about to say the three words beggar again, he finally couldn't hold it back and stopped him. : "Yan Hu, shut the hell up. If you don't say anything, no one will think you are mute."
Yan Hu immediately shut his mouth and really didn't dare to say another word.
Fu Zuoyi snorted, stared at the sweet potato again and said, "Little brother, you are not kind."
Digua made a face, turned around and hid behind Xu Rui, but Xu Rui laughed and said, "Digua is just a little kid. Don't be as knowledgeable as Mr. Fu."
Fu Zuoyi snorted twice and said, "Brother, what do you think about what I just said?"
How could Xu Rui fail to see Fu Zuoyi's good plan? He could find someone to go to Chairman Chiang Kai-shek to smooth the relationship. This was nine times out of ten true, and most of the time things could be done, but the cost of clearing the relationship was high. It's definitely not low. As long as there is no better way, he doesn't mind giving up a little profit.
But now, Xu Rui doesn't intend to give up the profits.
Fu Zuoyi's Thirty-Fifth Army is certainly eager for money, but are their Chahar Independent Regiment well-off? Speaking of which, Fu Zuoyi can still get some funds and supplies from Chairman Chiang Kai-shek, but their Chahar Independent Group has to earn everything by themselves, so their independent group needs money more. Why? Give profit
In view of this, even if Fu Zuoyi made two trips in person, Xu Rui was not going to give in.
Some things can be negotiated and negotiated, but not the case of Baotou Tea Trading Company.
Because Xu Rui also pointed to the auction of the tea trading company's shares to cash out, otherwise, he would not have sufficient funds to carry out the construction of Baotou Industrial Zone. Although the Soviet government assisted almost all machinery and equipment, except for machinery and equipment , Factory construction, raw material purchase, worker recruitment and training, etc. all require a lot of money.
It's not that easy to build an industrial zone. It's almost just a matter of spending money.
At that moment, Xu Rui said: "Mr. Fu, I appreciate your kindness, but regarding Chairman Chiang's decision to stop the tea trading company's share auction, he simply did something wrong, so I am not prepared to give in."
"Are you serious, you're not going to give in?" Fu Zuoyi cried out, "Are you going to carry on?"
"Yes, I don't believe there is no justice in this world." Xu Rui said, "It is true that Chairman Chiang is the supreme leader of the country, but even the supreme leader must abide by the law and abide by the rules! Do things according to the rules!"
That being said, Xu Rui doesn’t think so in his heart. Laws and rules are nothing but scum in the face of absolute money and absolute power. In fact, even in the 21st century, there are still many laws and regulations in the world that have been violated. Examples of money or power ****, such as the Simpson case, the Kobe Bryant case, etc.
Xu Rui never thought about negotiating rules with Chairman Chiang, but wanted to use force to suppress others.
But Fu Zuoyi really believed it. He really thought Xu Rui thought so.
At that moment, Fu Zuoyi earnestly advised: "Brother, you are really good at fighting. I, and everyone in Suiyuan, recognize this brother, but you are still young after all, and you still don't quite understand some people's ways. Brother After all, I am a few years older than you, so please listen to my advice on this matter... "
"Sir Fu, I have made up my mind." Xu Rui interrupted him, "You don't need to persuade me anymore."
When Fu Zuoyi wanted to persuade him a few more words, the sound of rapid horse hooves suddenly came from the snowy field.
Everyone looked back anxiously and saw a fast horse galloping over the snow like lightning. As they got closer, Xu Rui recognized that the knight on the horse was actually a mountain leopard.
"Captain, commander, something happened!" Zhuanshanbao shouted from a distance, "Something happened. The political commissar asked you to go back to the regiment headquarters quickly. Commander, go back quickly, go back..."
Zhuanshan Leopard looked very anxious and his voice was a little hoarse.
When Xu Rui heard this, his heart suddenly trembled, and he ignored Fu Zuoyi and rode away.
In just a moment, Xu Rui, Di Gua, two horses and a wolf disappeared above the snowfield, but only Fu Zuoyi and a group of his guards were left on the training ground.
…
In Baotou, the headquarters of the Independent Regiment.
Wang Husheng was pacing back and forth in the communications office with his hands behind his back.
After walking less than ten steps, Wang Husheng immediately stopped again and said to the operator sitting in front of the radio station: "Xiao Yang, there is still no reply?"
The operator Xiao Yang shook his head and replied: "Still no reply."
"Keep calling me!" Wang Husheng said, "Don't stop for a moment!"
"Yes!" Xiao Yang agreed, pressed the electric signal transmitting button again and started calling.
At this time, a figure flashed at the door, and Xu Rui's tall figure came in like a storm.
As soon as he entered the door, Xu Rui said sharply: "Old Wang, what happened? What happened?"
"Old Xu, you must be mentally prepared!" Wang Husheng did not say what happened immediately. Instead, he looked at his old partner with a complicated look and said in a low tone, "No matter what happens, you will always be prepared." You must hold on! Don’t forget, you are the King of Spikes and the leader of our Chahar Independent Regiment!”
Xu Rui closed his eyes and took a deep breath.
Then, Xu Rui suddenly opened his eyes and said in a deep voice: "I can hold on, tell me, what's the matter?"
Wang Husheng no longer concealed anything and said, "That's right. Didn't we apply for the transfer of Lao Song's flying company, a Type 96 bomber, and two Douglas III transport aircraft from the Dameishan base to Baotou? Yan'an approved it and took us there. The children will be taken to Yan'an by their family members, and the children will enter Yan'an Nursery, and Aunt Wang will also stay in the nursery. After Comrade Jiangnan gives birth, she will join Comrade Liu Mei and Comrade Xiao Yanyue to work in Baotou."
"I know this." Xu Rui said, "Yan'an called to inform him a long time ago."
Wang Hushang sighed and added: "Last night, all the family members and more than 90 people from the flight company and maintenance company took off from Dameishan Airport on a Type 96 bomber and two Douglas Type 3 transport aircraft, but Because Dameishan didn’t do a good job of keeping it secret, the Japanese got wind of it.”
"What?!" Xu Rui's face fell instantly when he heard this.
"Old Xu, you have to hold on!" Wang Husheng pressed his hands and continued, "Then early this morning, when our fleet was flying over Zhumadian, it was intercepted by Japanese fighter jets coming from Hankou, Zhengzhou and Luoyang airports. There happened to be troops of the Dameishan Independent Regiment operating near Zhumadian. Lao Gao sent a telegram half an hour ago. During the air battle, a Douglas Type III transport was shot down first. The Type 96 long-range bomber shot down two fighter jets. , also crashed into the mountains, and only the last Douglas transport plane escaped."
When Xu Rui heard this, he was stunned for a moment.
This loss is simply too heavy!
A total of three planes, two were shot down directly, and only one transport plane escaped!
But having said that, facing the interception of Japanese fighter jets, it is a miracle that one of the fleet consisting of one bomber and two transport planes can escape in the end! You must know that there are no weapons installed on the transport plane at all. Although the bomber is equipped with heavy machine guns, it is so large that it can only be massacred by fighter jets. Therefore, it is already a miracle that a transport plane can escape.
However, Xu Rui and the others really can’t afford the loss!
But what worries Xu Rui the most is not the loss of the plane.
To be honest, if the plane is gone, all we have to do is try to grab it.
But if the person is gone, he will never change again!
Wang Husheng continued: "According to the arrangement, except for the four pilots flying the transport aircraft, all the remaining pilots of the flight company were on the bomber. Of the two transport aircraft, one of them was carrying maintenance soldiers from the maintenance company, and the other one was carrying maintenance soldiers from the maintenance company. The passengers on board were the family members of our independent group. We still don’t know which transport plane escaped... "
When he said this, Wang Husheng's eyes were red and his heart was hanging, because sitting on one of the transport planes were not only Jiangnan, Hongguoer, Pangdun, and Aunt Wang, but also his wife, Liu Mei! Thinking that Liu Mei might also die in this air raid, Wang Husheng's heart ached.
