After listening to Leng Tiefeng's narration, Xu Rui asked with a smile: "So, Leng Tiefeng is definitely not your real name. What is your real name?"
Leng Tiefeng lowered his head and said nothing.
Xu Rui added: "Leng means cool, iron sharp means steel, Liang Gang?"
Leng Tiefeng remained silent, and Xu Rui added: "Song Ziwen's original intention of establishing the tax police headquarters was to ensure salt tax revenue and eliminate smuggling and tax evasion. In other words, what Song Ziwen needed was a police force, but in real life When he set out to build this unit, Song Ziwen followed the strictest military standards."
"No matter the equipment, clothing or military pay, they are the most generous among the National Army."
"Especially all the officers at battalion level and above, most of them graduated from West Point."
"Among these West Point military academy students, Song Ziwen admired and valued the three most. One was Sun Liren, the other was Qiu Zhiji, and the remaining one was Liang Gang. Among them, Liang Gang was the most low-key and mysterious, and Sun Liren Heqiu Zhiji often appears in the public eye, but Liang Gang has never seen his name but never seen him."
Leng Tiefeng finally spoke and said, "I know the Liang Gang you're talking about, but he's just mediocre."
Xu Rui asked with a smile: "So, you are not Liang Gang, the commander of the 1st Independent Battalion?"
Leng Tiefeng shook his head and said, "I told you, I am the commander of the Special Agent Battalion, not the commander of the 1st Independent Battalion."
Xu Rui said: "But how did I hear that, in addition to two independent battalions, the artillery battalion, the baggage battalion and the engineering battalion, the direct-controlled troops of the Tax Police Corps only have one special agent company and no special agent battalion?"
"How can you understand the structure of the Tax Police Corps better than me?" Leng Tiefeng said calmly, "I said, I am Leng Tiefeng, not Liang Gang, nor the commander of the 1st Independent Battalion."
"Okay, you are Leng Tiefeng, you are a veteran." Xu Rui knew that Leng Tiefeng must have difficulties, otherwise he would never give up his original name, and then said, "Veteran, are you willing to tell the whereabouts of this batch of gold?" I, I am very happy, but I am even more happy that you finally truly recognize us from the bottom of your heart**."
The veteran had joined the Independent Regiment for some time and even submitted an application to join the party, but Xu Rui knew that Leng Tiefeng still had feelings for the National Government in his heart.
But this time the Yellow River burst its banks, which gave Leng Tiefeng a great stimulus.
Leng Tiefeng said: "Now I just hope that you ** can always maintain your true colors and don't one day become the same as the Kuomintang."
Xu Rui corrected: "It's our ***, not you. Don't forget that you are also a probationary party member."
Leng Tiefeng nodded and said: "Old Xu, I have told you about the gold. When do you plan to get it?"
Xu Rui said cheerfully: "With such a large amount of money, of course it is important to get it as soon as possible. Otherwise, if someone discovers it accidentally and let the little devils rob it, there will be no place to cry."
Leng Tiefeng shook his head and said, "Don't worry, the gold hiding place is absolutely safe."
Xu Rui waved his hand and said: "Then we have to transport it back as soon as possible. In this way, you can go back and prepare. We will set off immediately. We will first go to the base near Yangcheng Lake and then prepare a plan of action."
Leng Tiefeng said: "It's just a check-in point, I can just go."
"No." Xu Rui shook his head decisively, "This is one million taels of gold. This is an overwhelming political event. I must go there in person. Moreover, this matter is only known to you and me. We must not let any third party. People know.”
Leng Tiefeng said: "If the political commissar and Director Qiu ask me why I went to Yangcheng Lake, how should I reply?"
"Are you short-sighted?" Xu Rui scolded, "Why did you tell them that you were going to Yangcheng Lake? You wouldn't leave quietly in the name of the Langya Squadron going out for training? That's it, I'll go with you this time Zhan, I have to see how the newly recruited Wolf Fangs are doing in training?"
Leng Tiefeng said: "Okay, whatever you say is fine.
Xu Rui said: "Then you go and prepare first, and I will go there later."
Leng Tiefeng said goodbye and left, and it could be seen that his mood was still a little low.
Obviously, it is not easy for Leng Tiefeng to make the current decision. After all, it means completely drawing a clear line with his previous beliefs. However, because of this, it is enough to see that Leng Tiefeng is a person who values love and justice. People, knowing that the National Government and the Kuomintang are so miserable, still feel guilty in their hearts.
Xu Rui waited at his residence for half an hour, but still didn't see Sai Hongfu and Xiao Taohong come back, so he planned to leave a note and then leave directly. The relationship between one million taels of gold was too great, and he couldn't pay too much attention to it! According to the gold price at the time, one million taels of gold was equivalent to US$35 million.
Such a huge amount of wealth, let alone the independent group, is an astronomical figure for the entire country!
If you lack a specific concept of this wealth, you might as well convert it into arms. US$35 million can buy 1500 American-made F4F fighter jets, or 9 aircraft carriers, or 50 Atlanta-class light cruisers, or 800 German-made Leopards. 2a main battle tanks, or 3,000 German-made 75 field guns.
These were heavy weapons, which were too luxurious for China at the time, so they were converted into light weapons.
35 million US dollars can buy almost 300 75 field guns, plus 10,000 mg34 general machine guns, plus 100,000 mp38 submachine guns, plus 200,000 Mauser M caliber Mauser ammunition. With these equipment, five fully equipped Class A armies are more than enough.
It can be seen that US$35 million is a huge number.
It is no exaggeration to say that with this batch of gold, until the end of the Anti-Japanese War, the Independent Regiment will not have to worry about funds. Of course, having said that, with so much gold, the Independent Regiment cannot monopolize it alone, and will definitely have to hand over a considerable part to the central government. After all, Yan'an was also very difficult at this time and urgently needed financial support.
Thinking of this, Xu Rui couldn't restrain his enthusiasm and wished he could put on his wings and fly directly to Yangcheng Lake.
While writing the note, Sai Hongfu came back with a tired face. When he saw Xu Rui, his beautiful eyes immediately lit up.
"When did you come back? Have you eaten? Do you want me to get you a bowl of noodles?" Seeing Xu Rui, Sai Hongfu's reaction was the same as that of all wives in the world who wait for their husbands to return.
Xu Rui sneered and said, "You seem to know how to cook noodles."
Sai Hongfu's pretty face turned slightly red. She really wasn't very good at housework. In the past, when Xiao Taohong was at home, Xiao Taohong did all the housework. She said angrily: "Yes, I am not as capable as Xiao Taohong, but, If you still think about it now, I'm afraid you won't be able to control Xiao Taohong like before."
Xu Rui was stunned when he heard this, and said in surprise: "What do you mean by this?"
Sai Hong gave Xu Rui a white look and said, "Grandma Yinhua has adopted Xiao Taohong as her adopted granddaughter. Now Granny Yinhua really regards Xiao Taohong as her precious granddaughter. I can't even tell her to do anything." After that, Sai Hongfu lowered his voice again and said mysteriously, "By the way, now I know why Granny Yinhua hates you so much."
Xu Rui asked subconsciously: "Why? Isn't it really because you were deceived by a man when you were young?"
"It's true, I heard people say that Granny Yinhua was really deceived by a man when she was young." Sai Hongfu added, "But this is not the main reason. The main reason is that Granny Yinhua's daughter was also cheated by someone. You lied, and you committed suicide because you were obsessed with that heartless man. I also heard that that heartless man looks very, very similar to you."
"Xiao Bai, don't talk nonsense." Xu Rui felt horrified after hearing this.
"I'm really not talking nonsense." Sai Hongfu said in a low voice, "I heard Granny Yinhua tell Xiao Taohong with my own ears, saying that you have the appearance of a heartless lover, and that you are destined to be a heartless person in this life. Han, and it’s not just one or two people who are in trouble, Grandma Yinhua also asked Xiao Taohong to leave you and not get close to you."
Two black lines immediately appeared on Xu Rui's forehead, Sister Ni, where are these
Sai Hongfu came over and hugged Xu Rui's waist, raised his pretty face and asked, "Will you betray me?"
Xu Rui was not stupid and would not make a principled error on this kind of issue. He immediately said: "Absolutely not."
Sai Hongfu got the answer he hoped for, but he obviously didn't believe it, and said: "Don't betray me, otherwise..." After saying that, Sai Hongfu reached down with his little hand, grabbed Xu Rui's handle, and said with a smile, "I want to Otherwise, I will castrate you so that you will never be a man for the rest of your life, and you will have everything to look at but nothing to eat, hehe hehe."
Xu Rui shuddered when he heard this. Isn't this too cruel
Xu Rui didn't want to continue on this topic, so he quickly changed the subject and said, "What did you do just now?"
"What else can I do? You still suspect that I stole from a wild man?" Sai Hong rolled her eyes at Xu Rui and said, "I went to help resettle the victims. I have been exhausted in the past half month."
Xu Rui frowned and said, "Aren't there student armies to resettle refugees?"
Sai Hongfu said: "The more than two thousand students are not enough. These are hundreds of thousands of victims. There are so many things to do. There are too many things to do. You don't see that the regiment headquarters is empty, and even the cooks are shirtless."
Xu Rui frowned and said, "This is not a problem. How can there be no one left at the regiment headquarters, especially your communications department? If there is an emergency order from the military headquarters or superiors, wouldn't it be a big deal?"
Sai Hongfu said: "There is someone staying at the communications office. Maybe they just went out because of something."
"Okay, I will remind Lao Wang about this later and let him pay attention." Xu Rui said again, "Now that you are back, there is no need for me to leave a note. That's it. I will follow the wolf later. The Ya Squadron is on a mission, it may take four or five days. When Xiao Taohong comes back, you can tell her."
"I just came back, and I'm on another mission." Sai Hongfu was obviously a little reluctant, and he hadn't even had time to get intimate with her.
Xu Rui bit Sai Hongfu's ear and said, "Baby, just bear with me for a few more days. When I come back, I will torture you as hard as I can."
"Go to hell." Sai Hongfu was so ashamed when he heard this, he stepped on Xu Rui's feet and said angrily, "It seems that I can't live without a man." (To be continued.)
