The most cattle cottage in the Anti-Japanese War

Chapter 500 Layout Qingdao
Zheng Sanpao and others saw that the devil had sent so many oceans and ammunition to Master Jiu, and they were overwhelmed with admiration. Then, they were even happier. Gao Jiu took out 3 oceans and handed them to Zheng Sanpao, saying : "The brothers from the Cavalry Battalion went to Peach Blossom Mountain, you can take the money and share it with the brothers, count it as the settlement expenses."

The brothers in the cavalry battalion used to be in the public security army, which means they just had a living. The treatment of the cavalry is better than that of the infantry. The average soldier can only get 1.5 oceans per month. This is just joined the guerrillas and enjoys it immediately To the treatment they dare not expect.Seeing Master Jiu being so generous, everyone cheered excitedly.

It turned out that the brothers of the Taohuashan guerrillas felt funny when they saw the people in the cavalry battalion who had never seen the world, and they were also proud of being a member of the Taohuashan guerrillas very early on.

Wang Zhankui said with a smile: "Brothers, you may not know that not everyone can go to Peach Blossom Mountain. It has been a long time, and there is no newcomer on Peach Blossom Mountain. You are lucky this time, and I am afraid in the future. It’s hard to get that opportunity anymore.”

The officers and soldiers of the cavalry battalion had already heard the old members of the Taohuashan guerrillas talk about the life and treatment on Taohuashan, and their eyes were already shining with envy.Hearing what Wang Zhankui said, everyone felt very lucky. Needless to say, those who are popular and spicy in the future, the most important thing is that after keeping up with Master Jiu, they will be anti-Japanese heroes. Compared with their identities a few days ago, they are simply divided into heaven and earth.The brothers held back their energy and performed well, but they couldn't let the old brothers in Taohuashan look down on them.

Wang Zhankui asked, "Jiu Ye, there are no more battles to fight in this area now, what's your plan next?"

Gao Jiu said with a smile: "On the border of Shandong, besides Jinan City, there is another prosperous place, which is Qingdao. How about it, brothers, do you want to go to Qingdao?"

"Okay, okay!" The guerrillas were very excited.

It's no wonder that although the members of the Taohuashan guerrilla team fought many battles with Master Jiu.But only Jia Liu, Ning Wen, Ning Wu and a small number of people who have really followed Master Jiu to the big cities. After these guys came back, they kept showing off, and the other guerrillas were already envious. saliva.Now that they heard that Master Jiu was going to take them to Qingdao, they were all elated.

Seeing the high morale of the guerrillas, Gao Jiu simply took everyone straight to Qingdao.

On the way, Gao Jiu sent a telegram to Jiang Xiaomei, asking her to have a meeting here with peace of mind, saying that he was going to Qingdao, and asked her what women's things she needed to bring with her.
Jiang Xiaomei really has something she wants. She wants to get married now, but she is too embarrassed to ask.After careful consideration, she telegraphed back to Gao Jiu that she wanted a ring, but she didn't specify what kind of ring she wanted, she knew Gao Jiu understood what she meant.

After Gao Jiu read the telegram, he laughed and didn't send her any more telegrams. He raised his whip and whipped it, and galloped forward.

Yangcun, where the Eighth Route Army is stationed.

Gao Jiu sent a large amount of weapons and ammunition again, and even the three trucks were given to Jiang Xiaomei.Jiang Xiaomei naturally also handed over to the higher party organization.

What happened recently has attracted the attention of the underground party organization, and they held a special meeting to discuss the issue of Gao Jiu.

After discussion, the leaders believed that Gao Jiu was a real anti-Japanese fighter, a good friend of the underground party, and an object that could be won. They hoped to win Gao Jiu to join the Eighth Route Army.

For this reason, they specially called Gao Hong and Yang Jiong to ask for their opinions.

Gao Hong shook his head and said, "Commanders! Based on what I know about Mr. Gao, he will not join the underground party or the Eighth Route Army. Mr. Gao has a strong personality, and he will not be restrained by others. Based on the strict discipline of our Eighth Route Army It's hard for him to adapt."

Yang Jiong said: "Our commander is right. In addition to his personal character, Mr. Gao has his own difficulties. The Taohuashan guerrillas have a strong fighting force and their treatment is very high. The most ordinary fighters are now The salary is more than 50 yuan, and the monthly salary of the cadres above the team leader is more than 100 yuan, and those leaders are paid even more.

In addition, they also give out large bonuses from time to time.The other benefits on Taohua Mountain are also very high. The food expenses of the guerrillas are dozens of times higher than that of our Eighth Route Army soldiers.Our Eighth Route Army has no way to provide such good treatment. Therefore, it is difficult for the Taohuashan guerrillas to join the Eighth Route Army. "

Hearing this situation, the top underground party leaders could only shake their heads and gave up the idea of ​​letting the Taohuashan guerrillas join the Eighth Route Army.

The chiefs were still a little unwilling. They asked Gao Hong and Yang Jiong to go back first, and then discussed how to better cooperate with Gao Jiu's Taohuashan guerrillas.

A chief said: "I have an idea, have you noticed? Gao Jiu sent a large number of weapons and ammunition, as well as Dayang, but he kept saying that it was for Jiang Xiaomei. In fact, he also knew about these things, Jiang Xiaomei Comrade must hand it over to the higher party organization, which shows that Gao Jiu is sincere in helping our underground party's anti-Japanese cause."

Everyone agrees with his idea,
The head continued: "Since Gao Jiu is willing to help Jiang Xiaomei, and Comrade Jiang Xiaomei is a qualified underground party member who is extremely loyal to the party's cause, we might as well transfer Comrade Jiang Xiaomei to the military region and let her come to the Mass Work Department work, and is responsible for liaison with Gao Jiu, so that we can strengthen our ties with Gao Jiu and give full play to the role of this non-Party person."

If it was in the past, the Shandong Work Committee of the underground party would definitely disagree with this opinion.But it's different now, the Shandong Military Region and the underground party working committee have merged, and they also hope that Jiang Xiaomei can play a greater role.At this meeting, they also saw that Jiang Xiaomei was very popular, and if she could work in the group engineering department, she should be able to play her role better, so they also agreed with this opinion.

The leaders formed a unified opinion, but Gao Jiu was involved in this matter after all, and they still needed to seek Jiang Xiaomei's opinion.

A senior leader of the former underground party working committee suggested that Gao Hong and Yang Jiong should be consulted first, and then talk to Jiang Xiaomei.

Gao Hong and Yang Jiong were ordered to come to the office of the leader of the former Shandong Working Committee. When the head made this request, both Gao Hong and Yang Jiong were taken aback.

To be honest, the reason why the Southwest Military Division of Shandong developed so rapidly was mainly due to the help of Gao Jiu, and the main object of Gao Jiu's help was Jiang Xiaomei.If Jiang Xiaomei left the Southwest Military Division, the relationship between Gao Hong, John Chen, Yang Jiong and others had not reached that level of intimacy with Gao Jiu, and Gao Jiu's help to the Southwest Military Division would definitely be greatly reduced.

Gao Jiu's help to Jiang Xiaomei was unreserved. Although Jiang Xiaomei left the Southwest Military Division, Gao Jiu would also help the Southwest Military Division for the sake of his friends, but his enthusiasm could not be that high. Here The gap between the inside and the outside is huge.

Gao Hong's first feeling was to resolutely oppose, but he was facing the head of the superior, so he had to speak carefully, he said: "Boss, you consider the issue from the perspective of the entire Shandong Military Region. Naturally, you are far-sighted, and you must have a reason. However, you may not understand some situations deeply enough. Gao Jiu has a very individual character, and his thoughts are relatively complicated. He is not a simple anti-Japanese fighter. We cannot treat him as an underground Party members come to ask for it.

For example, Gao Jiu was resolute in resisting Japan, and he could be called a national hero against Japan. However, he still maintained a tacit relationship with the Japanese devils, and even made deals with them. The Japanese puppet army and puppet regime existed in Pingyue County and Shoucheng County, but Gao Jiu never beat them.

Let me put it this way, Gao Jiu is also a very selfish person. The reason why he helps the Southwest Military Division so much is because of his personal relationship with Jiang Xiaomei on the one hand, and on the other hand, it is also for the benefit of the Taohuashan guerrillas. .The Taohuashan guerrillas often fought side by side with the troops of the Southwest Military Division in order to ensure the safety of Taohuashan.

From this point of view, if Jiang Xiaomei leaves Taohuashan and transfers to the military region to work, her influence will not be so great. This is what the chiefs have considered. I hope Jiang Xiaomei can play a greater role. I am afraid that things will backfire. . "

While listening to their conversation, Yang Jiong was also thinking about how to phrase it. He followed Gao Hong's words and said, "Chief, what our commander said makes sense. I have been in contact with Gao Jiu for a long time. Let's put it this way, Before Gao Jiu and Comrade Jiang Xiaomei met, I knew Gao Jiu, and my understanding of Gao Jiu can be regarded as relatively deep.

Let me say something that the chief may not like to hear. You may have overestimated the role of Comrade Jiang Xiaomei.As far as I know, Gao Jiu is definitely not a love supremacist. Apart from his close relationship with Comrade Jiang Xiaomei, he also has contacts with other women, and the relationship is also very close.

Of course, Gao Jiu is not a comrade of our party, and he has remnants of feudal thought, which is also understandable.The purpose of my saying this is just to explain that everything Gao Jiu does is first of all considering his own interests, that is to say, considering the interests of the Taohuashan guerrillas, and secondly, he will care about Comrade Jiang Xiaomei's opinion.

From this point of view, Comrade Jiang Xiaomei's stay in Southwest Shandong will play a greater role in the anti-Japanese cause. "

The superior chief was silent, as if considering their words.

Gao Hong hurriedly continued: "Chief, do you think this is okay? Comrade Jiang Xiaomei is still staying in our Southwest Military Division. Gao Jiu often provides weapons, ammunition and other supplies to the Independent Brigade, and we will send some of them to the military zone in time. Come to the headquarters, if Gao Jiu needs Gao Jiu's help to complete any important tasks at the military headquarters, we can also help persuade Gao Jiu to help the higher-level party organization complete the task."

Although the superior chief thought that what the two of them said made sense, he was not persuaded by them. He still believed that the issue should be considered from the perspective of the overall situation.He believed that Gao Jiu was not such a narrow-minded person, otherwise, he would not have provided so much help to the government and the underground party's Eighth Route Army.

He said: "On this matter, Comrade Jiang Xiaomei's opinion should be consulted before making a decision. How about this, after you go back, you can first disclose the opinions of the higher-level party organization to Comrade Jiang Xiaomei, and then I will talk to her. "

The chief is an old political worker with rich work experience. The reason why he asked Gao Hong and Yang Jiong to talk to Jiang Xiaomei first is because he knew that Jiang Xiaomei would definitely contact Gao Jiu. Gao Jiu had the final say.

He guessed right. After Gao Hong and Yang Jiong informed Jiang Xiaomei of this matter, Jiang Xiaomei was definitely unwilling to leave Southwest Shandong from the bottom of her heart. After all, Southwest is close to Gao Jiu. If she came to the Northeast of Shandong, she would have fewer chances to meet Gao Jiu.But she is also a staunch underground party member. For a while, she couldn't make up her mind, and decided to tell Gao Jiu about this matter first, and listen to his opinion before talking.

After Gao Jiu received Jiang Xiaomei's telegram, she was not surprised, because Jiang Xiaomei herself was an underground party, and within the underground party, it was normal for cadres to be transferred.

Among these people, Yang Jiong was more accurate in seeing problems.Gao Jiu is not a person who can be tied to the waistband of a woman, he first considers the interests of Taohuashan.

Through the distress of Jiang Xiaomei and others, Gao Jiu also had the idea of ​​changing Jiang Xiaomei's environment.

Jiang Xiaomei is now a middle-level and senior cadre, and the underground party associations are mostly famous. Jiang Xiaomei goes to higher-level organizations to attend meetings, which may be several times a year. Gao Jiu can't always escort her along the way every time.

After all, Jiang Xiaomei is the highest leader of the Independent Brigade, and fighting the Japanese and puppet troops is also normal, and the possibility of encountering danger is relatively high.From the point of view of safety alone, she might as well work in the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army's military region to be safer, so that Gao Jiu would be less worried.

Gao Jiu also understood Jiang Xiaomei's feelings and knew that she was willing to stay in Southwest Lu.Hence the matter.He decided to let Jiang Xiaomei make up her own mind.

He telegraphed back to Xiaomei Jiang and said: "Sister! You choose this matter yourself. No matter what kind of decision you make, I will firmly support it. Whether you are in the southwest of Shandong or in the headquarters of the Shandong Military Region, I will meet any needs you have. fully support it.”

Taking advantage of Jiang Xiaomei's time to send a telegram to Gao Jiu, Gao Hong said worriedly: "If Jiang Xiaomei leaves Southwest Shandong, it won't work."

At this time, Yang Jiong had already figured it out. He smiled and said, "Commander, you still don't know our Brigadier Jiang. Do you think she is willing to leave Southwest Shandong?"

Gao Hong thought about it seriously, and suddenly realized, he smiled and said: "Oh! Look at me, I only regard Brigadier Jiang as a senior cadre, but I forgot that she is still a little girl, and she is also a senior cadre. A little girl in love, hahaha!"

Both Yang Jiong and Gao Hong were relieved. With Jiang Xiaomei's character and her cleverness, they didn't need to worry about this matter at all.

To be honest, Jiang Xiaomei didn't care whether she was brigade commander or working in the mass engineering department. What she cared about was being able to meet Gao Jiu more often.In the southwestern part of Shandong, Gao Jiu often went to the rear and had to pass by her every time. If he came to the northeastern part of Shandong and wanted to see Brother Jiu again, it would be difficult.Therefore, she would never leave Luxinan.

Although she is also a staunch underground party member, she believes that she can also work for the underground party in Southwest Shandong. If the underground party needs Gao Jiu's help, she can also help the underground party persuade Gao Jiu.Due to emotion and reason, public and private, Jiang Xiaomei is unwilling to leave Southwest Shandong.

As for how to persuade the superior to give up this idea, she naturally has a way.She found Tian Chuan and asked him to quietly send a telegram to Gao Jiu.

After Gao Jiu read the telegram, he was angry, funny, and even touched.He laughed and said: "This girl is eccentric, but she really knows how to think of a way."

Of course, Gao Jiu also understood Jiang Xiaomei's deep love for him, so he sent a telegram to Jiang Xiaomei's request.

Gao Jiu clearly stated in the telegram: "My cooperation with the underground party is only for my sister Jiang Xiaomei. If Jiang Xiaomei leaves Southwest Shandong, I will cancel the cooperation with the underground party."

Jiang Xiaomei handed the telegram to Gao Hong. Gao Hong smiled secretly, and went to see the chief with the telegram.

The chief wants to transfer Jiang Xiaomei to work in the Mass Industry Department, and the most important thing is to cooperate with Gao Jiu.Seeing Gao Jiu's tone like this, he had no choice but to let it go.

This area is still the defense zone of the independent and mixed Ninth Brigade. The Japanese and puppet troops are all huddled in the stronghold, and no one dares to trouble Gao Jiu and others.On the road leading to Qingdao, Gao Jiu and the others marched in a mighty and swaggering manner.

Ning Wen and Ning Wu led the vanguard to open the way ahead.This afternoon, they saw the boundary marker on the highway, and they were about to enter the Qingdao boundary ahead, and going forward, it was the area under the jurisdiction of the Japanese Qingdao Garrison.Ning Wen and Ning Wu stopped the troops, and the two brothers continued to move forward in Japanese uniforms.

Soon after, they saw a black Ford sedan with a Japanese flag flying, and the two brothers slowed down and walked towards the car.

The people in the car got out of the car when they saw Ning Wen and Ning Wu. He was Takahashi, the confidant of President Fujiwara of Jinan Branch of Zhengjin Bank.

Seeing Ning Wen jump off the horse, Gao Qiao stepped forward and asked, "Is Mr. Gao here?"

Ning Wen said: "My Lord Jiu is right behind, you wait here, we will go and tell Master Jiu to come over."

Ning Wu turned his horse's head and galloped towards the way he came.

Why did Takahashi appear here?

It turned out that Gao Jiu's desire to come to Qingdao was not as simple as wandering around. He had long thought of setting up a material transfer station in Qingdao to receive materials brought back from abroad, but he had never had the opportunity before.This time he just came to the Northeast of Shandong, so he can take a trip to Qingdao.He sent a telegram to President Fujiwara in advance and told President Fujiwara his thoughts.

Gao Jiu is becoming more and more powerful now, President Fujiwara has more and more respect for Gao Jiu, he is willing to cooperate with Gao Jiu, Gao Jiu is honest and trustworthy, it will only bring benefits to him, and it will be very embarrassing for him not to do it Who wouldn't want such a partner?So he immediately sent Takahashi over.

Not long after, Gao Jiu came over, he and Gao Qiao sat in the car, and he explained his idea to Gao Qiao in detail.

What he asked Takahashi to do was to set up a Japanese commercial company in Qingdao. All the funds were paid by Gao Jiu, and Takahashi was responsible for handling the relevant procedures for the Japanese military and political circles in Qingdao. The employees in the company include Taohuashan People from the guerrillas and people from Jinan Yuchuntang.

Gao Jiu took out 20 oceans and handed them over to Takahashi, of which 15 oceans were used as the capital of the newly established company, and 5 oceans were a benefit fee for President Fujiwara.Gao Jiu gave Gao Qiao another two thousand oceans as his personal benefits.

Gao Qiao also likes dealing with Gao Jiu very much, he likes Gao Jiu's boldness and generosity very much.Since starting to deal with Gao Jiu, in addition to Gao Jiu giving him a favor fee, President Fujiwara will also give him a favor fee.Today, his extra income is more than his lifetime salary as a bank clerk.

Takahashi is a shrewd and capable person, and he assured Takahashi that he would follow Gao Jiu's request to start a limited company.

Not long after Gao Qiao and the others left, a truck drove over and stopped in front of Gao Jiu and the others, and a young woman got out of the cab, who was Bao Yuchun, the head of Yuchuntang.
