Chapter 178 Chu Yunfei: Brother Zhuzi, the equipment of my battalion?
The plan was finalized, and that night, Duan Peng led the Langya Special Forces team to Heyuan County.
Then, seizing the gap in the Japanese patrol, he easily climbed over the city wall and entered the county. He contacted the scouts in the county and gathered together to make arrangements for the operation two days later.
In the blink of an eye, two days passed.
Early in the morning, Wang Chengzhu led Monk Wei in disguise and rode to Heyuan County.
Heyuan County is about 70 kilometers away from Wangjia Village. It takes about three and a half hours by horseback.
More than three hours later.
At the gate of Dongcheng, Heyuan County.
The Japanese imposed martial law on the city gate, and deployed about a platoon of puppet troops and a small group of Japanese soldiers at the city gate.
On both sides of the city gate, a fortification was built with sandbags, and a light machine gun was mounted on each sandbag.
At the gate of the city, several puppet soldiers were strictly checking people entering and leaving the city.
Since today is Ichiro Hirata's birthday, I checked more carefully than before.
There are also several reward notices posted next to the city gate.
Wang Chengzhu, who was queuing up, glanced at them and saw that they were all acquaintances, including Li Yunlong, Chu Yunfei, and himself.
However, Wang Chengzhu couldn't praise the level of this portrait artist. He couldn't say that he was exactly the same as the portrait artist.
If Wang Chengzhu hadn't been literate, he wouldn't have recognized the three of them on the reward notice.
It can be said that even if Chu Yunfei and Li Yunlong swaggered by here, the interrogating Japanese and puppet troops would not recognize them.
What surprised Wang Chengzhu the most was that Li Yunlong and Chu Yunfei, as commanders of the regiment, only had a reward of 30,000 yuan, while he, a small battalion commander, had a reward as high as 50,000 yuan.
One can imagine how much the Japanese hated him.
"Everyone, please bring out your passes and certificates of good citizenship!"
"After the inspection, get out of here!"
The leader, a second lieutenant of the puppet army, put his hands on his hips and shouted to the people passing by.
Soon, it was Wang Chengzhu and Wei Monk's turn.
"Certificate of good citizenship!"
Wang Chengzhu smiled lightly and said: "I don't have a good citizen certificate, I'm here to wish Taijun Pingtian a birthday!"
With that said, Wang Chengzhu took out an invitation from his pocket.
This invitation was prepared for him by Liao Kui, the director of the military uniform factory.
Although Liao Kui had no military power, he was considered a popular figure around Hirata Ichiro and was in charge of the clothing issues of the Japanese and puppet troops. There was no problem in getting two invitations.
The puppet army captain was about to get angry when he heard the first half of Wang Chengzhu's words, but when he heard the second half of Wang Chengzhu's words, his attitude immediately changed 180 degrees.
There were many people who came to wish Ichiro Hirata a birthday today. He immediately recognized the invitation in Wang Chengzhu's hand, showed a flattering expression and smiled: "It turns out that Mr. Hirata's distinguished guests are invited inside, please be invited inside!"
Wang Chengzhu put the invitation back into his pocket, and then led Monk Wei into the county town in a swaggering manner.
Juxian Tower is in the north of the city, and Tianyi Tower is in the south. They are located at the north and south ends of Heyuan County.
However, Heyuan County is not very big, with a radius of only two kilometers.
After entering the county town, the two walked through several streets and alleys, and soon arrived at the first floor of the sky.
Since Hirata Ichiro held a birthday party today, the entire Juxian Tower was booked, and the landowners and squires near Heyuan County would go to garrison Hirata Ichiro, so most people went to Juxian Tower.
Therefore, the business on the first floor of Tianyi is much quieter than usual.
When the waiter saw Wang Chengzhu and Monk Wei, he immediately came out with a smile on his face: "Bosses, please come in."
After Wang Chengzhu and Monk Wei entered the restaurant, the waiter greeted them enthusiastically: "Boss, where do you want to sit? There is a lobby downstairs and private rooms upstairs."
Wang Chengzhu smiled and said: "We are here to keep an appointment. My friend has already booked a private room."
The waiter asked: "Boss, your surname is Wang?"
Wang Chengzhu nodded.
Waiter: "I understand, boss, please come upstairs!"
Immediately, the waiter led Wang Chengzhu and Monk Wei up to the second floor, to a private room near the street at the corner of the corridor, and said: "Boss, your friend is in there!"
"Um!"
Wang Chengzhu nodded, then took out a piece of ocean and threw it over: "Go down, I will call you when needed!"
"Thank you boss, boss will make a fortune!"
The waiter's salary for a month was only two yuan, and now Wang Chengzhu directly rewarded him with half a month's salary, but he was so happy that he walked towards the stairs in a hurry.
During this period, he kept bowing to Wang Chengzhu.
Although other dining guests sometimes give gifts, it is usually only one or two copper coins, and it is still very rare for a person to be rewarded at one time.
Just when Wang Chengzhu was about to knock on the door, the door suddenly opened with a "squeak" from the inside.
It turned out that Chu Yunfei heard the sound outside the door and signaled his adjutant Sun Ming to open the door.
"Captain Wang, please come inside!" Sun Ming made an inviting gesture.
Wang Chengzhu was not polite, nodded to Sun Ming, and walked in swaggeringly.
Chu Yunfei smiled and said: "Brother Zhuzi, you came on time. Please sit down!"
After saying that, he poured a cup of tea each for Wang Chengzhu and Monk Wei.
Wang Chengzhu smiled and said: "Hahaha! It's rare for Brother Chu to invite us back, so there's no reason for us to be late."
"By the way, Brother Chu, we are here too. Shouldn't it be time for the waiter to serve the food?"
Wang Chengzhu glanced at the table, which only contained a plate of peanuts and melon seeds. He secretly regretted that he shouldn't have sent the waiter away just now.
Chu Yunfei: "Brother Zhuzi, don't be anxious about this matter. I invited you here mainly because I want to discuss something with you."
Wang Chengzhu: "Which of us brothers is following whom? If you have anything to say, just tell me!"
Chu Yunfei: "Last time there was a mutiny in Lijia Town, I am grateful to Brother Zhuzi for helping me. I will repay this debt sooner or later. But, brother Zhuzi, you have to return the equipment of my battalion to me, right?"
Wang Chengzhu showed a regretful expression, slapped his forehead and said, "Oh! Brother Chu, if you had asked me to return it back in Lijia Town, I would have returned it to you, but it's not easy to do now."
Chu Yunfei was speechless and thought to himself, I wanted to ask you for it at first, but after I took care of Qian Bojun, where was your figure?
Retracting his thoughts, he asked doubtfully: "Oh? How do you say that?"
Wang Chengzhu explained: "Brother Chu, you must know that Commander Li, the leader above us, is simply a bandit."
"As soon as we came back from Lijia Town that day, he came to our base area and robbed all the equipment of that battalion!"
"I told him at that time that the equipment belonged to you, Brother Chu."
"But our regiment leader is unreasonable. He said that this equipment is in your independent camp, so it belongs to your independent camp. I am your regiment leader. If you want to take it away, then I will take it away!"
"No way, the official level is overwhelming. In the end, we can only watch this batch of equipment being taken away by our captain."
"So, if you want that batch of equipment, you have to go to our group leader."
"Of course, Brother Chu, if you really want it, I can apply to our group leader, but I can't guarantee whether I can get it back."
Chapter completed!
