On the official road, Zhu Bajie looked coldly at the other party and the guards of the theater command, frowned and touched his waist.
"Haha, Captain Liu, I'm here to discuss a big business with you. You really don't need to resort to knifes or guns." The strange man waved his hand, and more than 20 people rushed out of the woods, all wearing camouflage military uniforms and holding up their guns.
“Crash!”
At the same time, the guards of the theater command also raised their guns at Zhu Bajie and the others.
This scene instantly made Zhu Bajie's hair stand on end. He knew that something big was going to happen tonight, and the first person he thought of was his elder brother Zhao Weihu.
…
In the barracks of the Chi Army Headquarters, the farewell dinner was almost over. The senior leaders of the Renmin Army were sent back to their residences, while Gui Mengjun, Yu Mingyuan, Kong Zhenghui and others also returned to their rooms to rest.
Under the moonlight, Su Tianyu was about to return to his residence when Zhao Weihu called him at the door; "Little brother!"
Su Tianyu turned around: "What's wrong, brother?"
In fact, since the two of them became sworn brothers, Zhao Weihu has never called Su Tianyu by such an intimate name. He usually uses a teasing tone, such as "my brother Xiao Su", "Gou Liuzi" and so on.
To be realistic, the reason why Zhao Weihu became sworn brothers with Su Tianyu in the beginning was simply because he valued two important resources in Su Tianyu, namely the newly established Tongji Society and the relationship between Su Tianyu and Li Mingsheng. Therefore, the so-called brotherhood was more based on interests rather than personal feelings.
But with the frequent contacts between the two sides, Zhao Weihu gradually accepted Gou Liuzi.
Generally speaking, the arms business is a win-win situation. The Tongji Society can make money, and Chi Jun will be valued in the Renmin Army because of this resource.
However! The process of obtaining this resource is not easy. Su Tianyu, Yu Mingyuan and others have been in danger several times in the old triangle, which is equivalent to risking their lives to get a future, and the Chi Army did not give them much help before.
However, after the arms business started, the Chi Army would sometimes default on payments, and sometimes even get some scraps of materials for free, such as military uniforms and tents, but Su Tianyu never schemed against Zhao Weihu.
The last time they attacked Island No. 7, Su Tianyu transferred a company and a half from the Chi Army to help. Zhao Weihu originally thought that Gou Liuzi was asking him to repay a favor.
But at the end of the matter, Su Tianyu paid him eight million in cash to resettle the sacrificed soldiers, seriously injured soldiers, and to give high bonuses to his brothers.
You know, Ouyang Zhen only gave Su Tianyu 15 million yuan for the event, and he paid it in several installments. This includes the expenses of the entire event, including Wei Xiangzuo, Gu Baishun, Lu Feng, the people from Tongji Club, as well as all the expenses for buying cars and supplies along the way.
This incident made Zhao Weihu feel very comfortable. It was from then on that he recognized Su Tianyu and felt that this little brother was a decent person who kept his word and his inner character was actually very similar to his own.
…
At the entrance of the barracks, Su Tianyu came to Zhao Weihu and said, "What's wrong, brother?!"
"Let's go, brothers." Maybe Zhao Weihu drank a lot of wine today, so he was a little bit irritable.
"Let's go." Su Tianyu followed him and walked towards the secret sentry post around the camp.
On the way, Zhao Wei said to Su Tianyu with his hands behind his back: "Little brother, do you know why I want to set up this ruler army?"
Su Tianyu shook his head.
"You and I have both served in the military. We have witnessed a lot of history and seen a lot of things." Zhao Weihu has white hair on his temples. He walked forward against the cold wind and said softly, "On a small scale, with so many brothers following me, I have to find them a place to settle down and make a living. On a large scale, there are nearly ten million Chinese overseas, but the puppet government of Longcheng has not changed much. Corruption is rampant and the system is dark, especially the Chinese Corps in our District 1. I look down on them the most. When they fight the War of Independence, the upper echelons say that our hundreds of thousands of troops will be cannon fodder. I don't know why those senior officials would accept such an order! In fact, Governor Qin was right when he said something. Among the generals who left during the great migration, the brave ones died on the battlefield, and the remaining old men are all spineless!"
Su Tianyu frowned and listened without responding.
"So, I want to arm myself and recruit a team! The Chi Army is still very weak, but if one day, a strong wind starts in Longcheng and various regions show a tendency to rise up, then who can say for sure? Today's small Chi Army may not be the king's army tomorrow?!" Zhao Weihu was very excited when he said this. He turned his head to look at Su Tianyu, his eyes sparkling with brilliance.
When Su Tianyu heard this, his pants almost fell off in fear: "Brother, have you drunk too much?!"
"Do you think I'm drunk?"
"...!" Su Tianyu curled his lips and said, "I am a good citizen!"
"Stop lying. Why do you want to join the system? Your parents died. Can you get over it?" Zhao Weihu didn't believe it at all: "I can understand you."
When Su Tianyu heard this, he lowered his head and remained silent, and his eyes became gloomy.
"One day, if there is a slight chance, I will definitely charge into Dragon City!" Zhao Weihu said very bluntly: "Lao Li is one of the few tough guys. If he thinks the same as us, I am willing to lend him a helping hand at the critical moment."
These were definitely words from the heart. Su Tianyu turned his head to look at Zhao Weihu and replied concisely: "Brother, thank you for valuing me."
"You are worthy of being my brother, Zhao Weihu. I tell you this just to explain why I agreed to the cooperation intention of Guimeng Army." Zhao Weihu frowned and said, "I need money, and I also need to survive in the cracks. The Renmin Army is definitely not the end of my department!"
Su Tianyu nodded heavily: "Brother, I agree with you, but I think..."
While the two brothers were talking, a staff officer in the headquarters ran out drunk and shouted, "Commander! Commander! The rebels are moving!"
“Boom!”
Just as he finished speaking, there was a sudden burst of fierce artillery fire from the western border of the Chi Army.
Zhao Weihu turned his head to look at the direction where the gunfire came from, frowning and cursing: "Damn rebels, there has been no movement for more than half a month, and now they are suddenly active again."
"The position of one of our front-line regiments came under attack. The damage is not serious at the moment, but the enemy has suddenly assembled a large number of troops, at least two field regiments." The staff officer ran over and said.
"Order the 2nd Regiment to provide support, and the Guard Regiment to assemble. I'm going to command the second position." Zhao Weihu gave the order in a calm tone, and patted Su Tianyu on the shoulder: "Rest early, I'll go take care of it."
"Are you okay, bro?!"
"This is normal friction here, it's not a big deal." Zhao Weihu waved his hand: "Let's go!"
"Commander, Captain Liu is not here." Another officer ran out and shouted.
