The flag-offering position.

Wang Zhong was sitting against a pine tree, while Mi Long was squatting in a shallow pit that had just been dug next to him, holding a machine gun.

"What do you think about us opening a grocery store in Zenda City and letting your wife watch it?"

As soon as these words came out, the lost dragon lying in the shallow pit became interested.

"This is a good idea." Mi Long stood up from the shallow pit, walked to Wang Zhong and sat down next to him, looking at Wang Zhong curiously: "Why didn't I think of that?"

"If we open a grocery store, my wife can take care of the store while taking care of the children, and the family will have an extra income."

"And now that the road between us and Chuncheng has been opened, most of the supplies we import from Chuncheng are daily necessities. When the time comes, we can ask the people there to deliver more, and the supply of goods for the grocery store will be solved."

The mythical dragon is the mythical dragon. Three strokes, five divisions, and two divisions have led to the thought of the supply of goods in the grocery store.

Wang Zhong glanced at him and said: "You'd better discuss this matter with your wife first!"

"If there is anything to discuss, she will definitely agree." Mi Long said thunderously.

Wang Zhong said angrily: "It's her business if she agrees, and it's your business whether you discuss it with her or not. If you discuss all the big and small things at home with her, doesn't it show that you respect her and care about her?"

"Women are emotional. They are very easily moved by small things like this. If you do as I say, I will keep you safe without you having to move after you get back. She will be able to serve you comfortably."

"Isn't it the right thing for a woman to serve a big man?" Mi Long tilted his head and continued to speak harshly. He was already thinking about how to coax his wife.

Wang Zhong didn't bother to expose him: "You can handle this matter yourself. Don't delay our business."

"Don't worry, I know what's going on, and I won't miss the point."

During the half month in the provincial capital, Wang Zhong had been busy using Du Yanmei to get in touch with the commander-in-chief of the theater, while Mi Long was busy with the supply of goods. In the half month, plus the fact that talking in front of Commander Liu is most effective now

Thanks to Du Yanmei’s introduction, the supply issue was finally resolved.

"After dark, I will give you a night off. We will meet at the city gate at seven o'clock tomorrow morning."

As soon as he heard that it was fake, Milong's eyes instantly lit up: "Really?"

Wang Zhongdao: "If you don't want to go back to see your wife and children, just pretend that I didn't say what you just said."

"Don't bother me!" Milong said quickly: "A fool doesn't want his wife and children to be on the hot bed."

The two of them were talking when Shi La Shi La came over, accompanied by a fat man.

"I found a treasure!" Long Wenwen walked to Wang Zhong and sat down next to him with a smile.

Wang Zhong glanced at the fat man who was following Long Wenwen. He had a simple and honest face, and he even looked a little stupid. But whoever really regarded him as a fool would be a real fool.

"Is this the fat man?" Wang Zhong looked at the fat man with interest.

"Krupp, introduce yourself!" Long Wenwen raised his hand towards the fat man nicknamed Krupp.

Krupp said: "My name is Shi Xiaomao. I used to be the main shooter of the PAK anti-aircraft artillery."

"The main shooter of the Pak anti-tank cannon? Then the American cannon can also be used?" Wang Zhong asked.

The Pak combat anti-cannon is a 37mm combat anti-cannon made in Germany. It is a light towed artillery with a total combat weight of 432 kilograms and a maximum range of 4.025 kilometers.

The artillery in the hands of Cao Lin and others are all American products. The 75-year-old mountain cannon, the 60-year-old and 80-year-old mortars are quite different from the German Pak anti-tank artillery.

Krupp said confidently: "The principles are the same, American guns are simpler."

"Before the war, my father originally wanted to send me abroad to study mechanics, but later I studied artillery." Krupp added.

"He is still a talented person who has returned from overseas!" Wang Zhong said: "Not bad! How many shots can you try?" The last words were directed at Long Wenwen.

Upon hearing Wang Zhong's words, Krupp's eyes suddenly lit up, and he immediately turned to look at Long Wenwen.

Long Wenwen looked embarrassed: "Our fortifications haven't been dug yet!"

Long Wenwen also wanted to fire a few shots to test the quality of this fat man, but their fortifications had just been excavated today, and only an outline was dug out. If the Japanese army on the other side counterattacked, they would not even have a place to hide.

"Then wait a few days until the fortifications are dug and fire a few shots to try."

"If you hit it, I will personally reward you with a box of canned beef."

Krupp's originally cloudy eyes suddenly lit up again, and when he mentioned canned beef, he subconsciously started to swallow his saliva.

"Sir, do you keep what you say?" Krupp was worried that Wang Zhong was deceiving him.

Wang Zhong smiled and said: "You can ask our group whether my words really count!"

Krupp looked at Long Wenwen again, and Long Wenwen patted his chest and said to him: "Our deputy commander Wang is famous for spitting and nailing. Don't worry, if deputy commander Wang doesn't admit it then, this canned

I'm out."

"Since he used to be the main shooter of the battle defense artillery, let's let him be in charge of the artillery of our regiment for the time being!" Wang Zhong suggested to Long Wenwen.

Long Wenwen nodded and said, "That's what I planned too."

"Fat man, those artillery pieces are the treasures of our regiment. From now on, you will be responsible for them. You have to help me maintain those cannons. If there is a problem, I will only ask you."

Krupp patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, commander, I will definitely treat those artillery pieces like my own wives."

"Okay, okay, you go down first, remember to take good care of my treasures!"

"Don't worry, Captain!" Krupp couldn't wait to run towards those artillery pieces. The reason why he came to enlist in the army today was because he saw these artillery pieces that Wang Zhong dragged back from the provincial capital.

During the day in Zenda, Long Wenwen specially asked people to open the tarpaulin of the car, and pulled the artillery and ammunition around again and again near the shelter where the defeated soldiers gathered, just to tell others that their Sichuan Army Corps

It is now the main force regiment, and its weapons and equipment are no worse than those of Yu Division's main regiment. It is used to attract those defeated troops who have not yet been recruited by Yu Division.

"How many people have been hired today?"

"Forty or fifty, okay!" Long Wenwen went straight to the grass, pillowed his head with his hands, grabbed a piece of grass and threw it into his mouth.

"It's a pity that there are so few young people!"

"There are already a lot of old and weak people in the regiment now. From now on, it's better to be incompetent than indiscriminate!" Wang Zhong suggested.

Long Wenwen sighed, feeling helpless: "It's hard to recruit this soldier!"

"Have you ever thought about recruiting some young people in Zenda?" Wang Zhong said.

Long Wenwen said: "Zhenda is a local? If you can't survive these days, who would want to be a soldier?"

Wang Zhongdao: "But if the Japanese army comes across the river, they still won't be able to survive."

Long Wenwen said: "It's not that easy."

Wang Zhongdao: "Then what if we tie up some more interests?"

"Bundled interests?"

"What interests are tied up?" Long Wenwen turned to look at Wang Zhong curiously.

Wang Zhongdao: "Chenda produces jade and jade, and every once in a while, someone will come to receive the goods regularly. You said that if we take this matter over and do it ourselves, won't we be tied to the people of Zenda?

?”

"It's not that simple. There are people taking care of these businesses. Maybe they are the property of some high-ranking official." Long Wenwen has been working all over the country for many years and has been in the national army for a long time.

I don’t know all about these methods, but I know some of them.

Wang Zhongdao: "What about high-ranking officials? We are Commander Liu's people now. Our business is Commander Liu's business, isn't it? When the time comes, we will send the dividends to Commander Liu. In Yunnan, there are also

Who dares to steal this business from us?"

"But where is the market?"

"If there is no market, these things will be useless stones." Although Long Wenwen doesn't know how to do business, he doesn't know anything about it.

Wang Zhong said: "Let's try it!"

"Since someone is coming to collect it, then someone will definitely buy it. We have guns and cannons in our hands, but why are we worried about not being able to sell our things?"

An idea flashed in Long Wenwen's mind, and he turned to look at Cao Lin in surprise, "You don't mean to..."

······

Early the next morning, Wang Zhong led the dragon and visited the home of He, the most famous squire in Chanda.

"Deputy Commander Wang... No, you should call Deputy Commander Wang now!" When Mr. He saw Wang Zhong, a smile immediately appeared on his face, and he cupped his hands at Cao Lin and said congratulations: "Congratulations, Deputy Commander Wang."

Gao Sheng."

"Thank you Mr. He!"

Wang Zhong also bowed his hands to Mr. He, and the three of them sat down one after another. Mr. He asked straight to the point: "As the old saying goes, you don't have to go to the Three Treasures Hall for anything. Deputy Commander Wang is a busy man. I don't know why he came here today.

What's the matter?"

Wang Zhong did not hide anything from Mr. He: "To be honest, Mr. He, I seem to have a big favor when I visit this time. I would like to ask Mr. He for help."

"Very busy? What's the big deal? Come and hear from Deputy Commander Wang?" Mr. He was very polite.

Wang Zhong did not hide anything, and directly spoke of his purpose: "To be honest, Mr. He, wars are intense in various places now, and materials are in short supply. The Japanese army on the other side is watching with eagerness. Most of our Sichuan Army has been lost.

We have reached the other side and are in urgent need of additional troops, but it is not easy to recruit troops now. We plan to send people to do some small business in the city to earn some money to improve the food for the brothers, and at the same time to attract more young people to join us."

"This is a good idea, but I don't know where I can help?" Mr. He nodded, at least he agreed with Wang Zhong's words.

Wang Zhongdao: "Chenda produces jade and jade. We just want to get involved in this business. I wonder if He Lao thinks it is feasible?"

When Mr. He heard what Cao Lin said, he couldn't help but frown, with a look of embarrassment on his face: "I'm afraid this matter won't be that easy."
