Chapter 274: Officially Recruiting Ma Zhankui
Ma Zhankui asked Gu Wenxuan tentatively.
"Oh, I am so sorry. It turns out that Gu Yingxiong is a powerful figure. I wonder where your army is stationed. I will come to visit you when I have time!"
Gu Wenxuan smiled and said, “My army is stationed near the Taihang Mountains!”
Ma Zhankui: "Then I wonder which side the ancient hero troops belong to, the White Party or the Red Party?"
Ma Zhankui knew that since there were more than 10 people, they were definitely not bandits, but must be the army of the Red Party or the White Party.
It is really difficult for Gu Wenxuan to answer this question about Ma Zhankui: does he belong to the White Party or the Red Party?
Besides, nominally they still belong to the Northern Party, but in the Northern Party's organization, they are only two battalions, but they now have more than 10 people, which seriously exceeds the organization of an army.
So Gu Wenxuan smiled and said to Ma Zhankui:
"Nominally, I still belong to the White Party, but my organization is similar to our army, which is equipped with two battalions.
I now have more than 10 people, so I should be an independent army, just affiliated with the White Party.
The reason why they say my army is affiliated with the White Party is that I have not spent a penny of the White Party government's money, nor have I used a single gun or bullet. All of them were purchased by myself or captured from the enemy!
So strictly speaking, I belong to neither the Red Party nor the White Party!"
When Ma Zhankui heard that Gu Wenxuan had slowly organized an army of more than 10 from two battalions, he was extremely envious.
"Commander Ma, you don't have to be envious. If you can cooperate with me, I can also make your team gradually stronger!"
Ma Zhankui: "I'll call you General Gu, the ancient hero! General Gu, how can you recruit me?
After all, we are too far apart, so it is difficult to help each other. Even if you want to give me supplies, it is too far away for me to come and get them!"
Gu Wenxuan: "You don't have to worry about this Commander Ma, as long as you are willing to join me, I can let you get some money right away.
I can take these out at any time. As for food and weapons, I will use my connections to transport the weapons and food to a train station near you.
Then you can send people to transport the food back, and kill the Japanese at the train station, so that you can conceal the source of the food!"
Ma Zhankui looked at Gu Wenxuan blankly. He didn't know how much silver Gu Wenxuan had on him. How dare he tell him directly like that? Wasn't he afraid that he could snatch it away?
No matter how powerful he is, this is his old lair after all, and he has more than 1000 brothers.
Gu Wenxuan pretended to touch himself and took out a stack of silver bills.
He placed the banknote on the table and said to Ma Zhankui:
"This silver dollar note can be redeemed in all major banks and money houses across the country. I checked and found that there are about 50 silver dollars in the note.
If you are willing to join my army, I can immediately give you this 50 yuan in silver notes, which can also be used for daily expenses! "
When Ma Zhankui saw the silver bill on the table, he knew it was real. After all, he had handled quite a few silver bills, so he could tell at a glance whether it was real or not.
But he was very surprised. Why did Gu Wenxuan trust him so much?
Isn't he afraid that he will not cooperate with him after receiving the banknotes? After all, he is not from the local area.
"General Gu, are you really going to give me your 50 dollars so easily? Without any conditions?"
The second Miss Tantai sneered: "Look at your petty look, do you know how much money our brother-in-law has?
We have already started to organize an air force. Did you know that our brother-in-law is going to buy hundreds of planes from abroad? I have already learned how to fly a plane. With your 50 yuan, you can only buy a few planes at most!"
Although Ma Zhankui didn't know whether Tan Tai Mingyue was bragging or not, he knew what hundreds of planes meant. When the young marshal was in the Northeast, he only had twenty or thirty planes.
This guy bought hundreds of planes at once, how rich must he be?
Of course, he also knew that compared with the price of hundreds of planes, 50 oceans was just a drop in the bucket.
Moreover, Ma Zhankui was also wondering whether Gu Wenxuan would go to Fengtian to buy planes from the Russians this time?
This must be the case. General Gu must be trading planes with the Russians. Otherwise, why would he come so deep into the border area alone? This is the Japanese world.
It was very dangerous for him, a general of an army, to come to this place.
Dozens of small bandit leaders who were having dinner with their boss in the gathering hall blushed with excitement when they saw their boss holding a silver note worth 50 oceans!
He even hoped that his boss would agree to this young man. After all, it was just a nominal surrender. What was the big deal about them? They were all fighting against the Japanese anyway.
There is no difference between fighting against the Japanese together and fighting against them individually. The only difference is that by listening to the young man's verbal orders, you can get sufficient supplies.
With so much money, they can go out and buy food when the snow melts.
No, it seems that this young general also said that he would not care about food and weapons with them, so the 50 oceans could be distributed to them as military pay. Just thinking about it made these people so happy that they wanted to jump up.
This is more satisfying than beating up the local tyrants.
After much thought, Ma Zhankui finally stood up and saluted Gu Wenxuan.
"General Gu, I will follow you from now on!"
Gu Wenxuan nodded with satisfaction: "Okay! Then Ma Sirenzhi, I will now formally recruit you as the commander of the Northeast Military Region of our Anti-Japanese National Salvation Alliance!"
"Yes!"
Ma Zhankui formally saluted Gu Wenxuan again, and his subordinates applauded and welcomed him!
Gu Wenxuan continued, "Okay, next we are going to rob a Japanese granary. I know that granary has recently transported a lot of food.
They plan to move to other places when the weather clears up, so we should go and get them back tonight!"
Ma Zhankui asked nervously, "Where is this granary? I haven't heard of any large granaries of the Japanese army nearby?"
Gu Wenxuan had no idea that there were any Japanese granaries nearby. He just wanted to find an excuse to put the food in his space in the Japanese warehouse and let these bandit troops transport the food back.
In this way, at least they will not lack food for a year. Of course, this is assuming their number does not increase. If their number increases, I will have to transport some food to them in the future to stabilize the morale of the army.
Gu Wenxuan said, "Isn't there a train station called Matouling near us? The warehouse there is full of food. They are temporarily stored there! I got the information from my intelligence personnel."
Matouling Railway Station. Ma Zhankui knew that the station was not very big, but there were indeed some warehouses there, but he had never heard of them storing food there.
However, Ma Zhankui did not suspect that Gu Wenxuan was lying, and there was no need for him to lie.
Ma Zhankui: "Well, we will prepare to feed the soldiers immediately. After they have eaten and drunk their fill, we will go and attack the warehouse at the railway station.
I know that the railway station warehouse is in a strategic location, but they have only a few people guarding it, only about 20 to 30 people, but there are still many Manchukuo National Defense Forces!"
Gu Wenxuan said to Ma Zhankui: "You and your troops just need to prepare to transport the grain. As for the task of attacking these warehouses, leave it to me and the Second Miss!"
