Rise from eight hundred.

The Zhengcheng Chamber of Commerce, led by Boss Qian, heard about the group wedding held by the Four Elements Group half a month ago, and immediately made fifty pairs of pure gold mandarin ducks at a time-honored gold shop in Chang'an City.

The reason why 50 pairs were created at one time was because the Four Lines Group Headquarters could not calculate the final list of personnel at that time. Boss Qian simply made 50 pairs boldly, and the remaining 22 pairs after the newcomers received them were also given to the Four Lines Group. It will be kept by the Military Supplies Department and will be given away to whoever gets married in the future while supplies last.

These golden mandarin ducks are not cheap. With the materials and craftsmanship fee, the value of each pair of mandarin ducks is upwards of 200 yuan.

Originally, Ye Chenghuan expressed his gratitude on behalf of the Four Lines Youth League and refused on behalf of the newcomers, but Boss Qian's heartfelt words made it difficult for Ye Chenghuan to refuse.

"I, Lao Qian, am a businessman. I originally came here with the idea that I could make good friends with Captain Tang and other officers even if I didn't make any money. However, during the past six months in Dakouzidong Town, I, Lao Qian, not only earned Money, and saw how the brothers worked hard for the country and the people.

I attended the burial ceremony of the remains of the fallen brothers at the Martyrs Cemetery alone three times. Those were all young people around the age of twenty! They were lying in rows on the mountain. I looked down several times and there were probably three to four thousand people there.

As an old person, I really can’t bear to see this. Every time I go back from there, I can’t sleep all night, just thinking about doing something for these young people.

Now, we finally have such an opportunity. Lao Zhou, Lao Wang and I all hope that these new people can live in harmony forever. It can also be regarded as the most sincere blessing for those of us older generations who are unable to contribute on the battlefield.

If you don't want this little blessing, then you don't treat us as a family! "

It’s all said and done, who can refuse?

Li Jijin was drooling with envy in the audience. If he had known that getting married in the group would enjoy such benefits, he would have been single for thirty years. If he was not so anxious to get a wife, this guy alone could earn a lot of money. The bowl is full.

However, looking at the graceful brides on the stage, Captain Li Dal obviously still misses his wife who has a body like a door panel. Without that good body, how can she serve those days at home and take care of the whole family?

There is nothing wrong with fixing your own aesthetics based on the reality of life.

But Li Jijin still underestimated the butterfly effect caused by Tang Tuanzuo's marriage.

Two mysterious rich men also sent heavy gifts to the new members of the Four Elements Group.

A guy named De Wangzhong was very simple and rude. He delivered twenty large wooden boxes, and when he opened the first box he brought to the stage, he almost blinded everyone.

There were actually guns inside!

Submachine gun! Under the sunlight, the exquisite blue metallic luster of the gun body made the soldiers on and off the stage know at a glance that these were all brand new imported goods.

The eyes of the generals and colonels below almost froze.

A large wooden box can hold a donkey, and it contains at least 50 submachine guns. If calculated according to this calculation, there are 1000 guns in these twenty large wooden boxes with red flowers.

"No wonder the Four Elements Regiment is so well-equipped! He has met a noble man. Is it possible that the man named Dezhongwang is the alias of a certain old man?" Brigadier Kong looked at Brigadier Cheng silently, and basically said this means.

"This kid has a lot of secrets. Brother, you can guess. Don't even think about a certain old man. He has this thing in his hand. Why don't he equip his own guards first? Can he send a gun? Even if he is grand." Brigadier Cheng shook his head slightly, but quietly made a rubbing motion with his hands.

Does that mean you still have to say it clearly? Isn't it that this gift is definitely not for the newlyweds, but for the group of four members? Then they who come from afar to congratulate, according to traditional rules, why shouldn't they give a return gift? It doesn’t take much, just 30 shots for each division or brigade.

It can only be said that Brigadier Cheng Da's thoughts are much more beautiful than his appearance.

"Damn it, the number is wrong!" Tang Tuanzuo twitched the corner of his mouth.

The so-called Dewangzhong is the pseudonym Rostav, a wealthy man, gave himself. These gifts were all given personally by him.

20 of the 19 boxes were given to the big benefactor, Si Xing Tuan, and only the items in the box numbered 01 were given to the newlyweds.

This guy has a habit of pretending to be mysterious, and he didn't tell Tang Dao what was inside in the letter, but based on the weight, Tang Dao could tell that most of them were firearms.

But what Tang Dao didn't expect was that it turned out to be a new submachine gun MP1938 that the German Empire had just installed in the army in mid-38.

This gift is not light. The MP38 submachine gun is the world's first submachine gun to successfully use a folding stock and is made of steel and plastic.

After folding the butt, the length of the gun is only 630MM. With the 32-round magazine, the gun weighs only 4.7KG. It has an effective range of 100 meters and a rate of fire of 500 rounds per minute!

Light, durable, and powerful, this submachine gun can be regarded as the pinnacle of submachine guns during World War II.

If 19 boxes contained all of these, that would be more than 900 guns. Calculated at 200 oceans per gun, this batch of firearms alone would be worth nearly 20 oceans.

As for the reason why Rostav took advantage of Tang Tuanzuo's wedding to invest so much, Tang Dao thought about it, and he could understand the reason.

But it was this man who discovered that Tang Dao had other channels besides Krupp to purchase weapons. In order not to lose this big customer who often invested millions of dollars in swords, this man also tried his best. He even joined the German army. All the MP38s installed were delivered.

And Zhuang Shisan, the sixth man, just wanted to show off, no matter who gave it to him, our Four Lines Group must show off in front of the friendly forces and young and old men today, so that the bride’s relatives can also know that the girl is married to the Four Lines Army. They are not wrong.

He ordered that all the 20 large boxes that had just been delivered from Handan yesterday be moved to the scene. The reason for the error was that Cheng Tieshou, who was six years older than him, mistook box No. 10 for box No. 01 and moved it to the stage. .

The consequence of serving the cup in front of the bride's relatives was that Tuanzuo Tang clearly saw the green eyes of the army, division, brigade and regiment commanders in the audience.

With the size of the generals invited today, Tang Dao knew that it would be impossible to handle them without sending out hundreds of submachine guns.

But it doesn’t matter, it’s just for fun! Anyway, it's a free gift from the German tycoon. If it's not enough, just buy it. The Four Lines Group currently has nothing but money.

When Cheng Tieshou, the iron fool, was sweating profusely and led others to open the No. 01 wooden box under the threat of Tang Tuanzuo's murderous eyes, the bride's relatives in the audience breathed a sigh of relief.

Although tradition has long been broken, it is always a bit unlucky to see swords and guns at a wedding, let alone boxes full of guns.

This box is full of cultural atmosphere.

In order to show off his cultural literacy, Rostav, a China expert, actually gave each newlywed couple a set of hardcover miniatures of the Twenty-Four Histories of the Republic of China. Although it was a miniature version, these 22 sets filled the entire large wooden box. .

It is a history book that almost covers the development of Chinese civilization. It is not only the crystallization of Chinese wisdom, but also exquisitely printed. The price of this set of books alone is definitely high.

However, this somewhat makes these rough guys who came from the military camp a little bit big-eyed. They dare to study and study for newlyweds!

"This set of books is a great gift! Our brides can use it to go to bed at night. No, before going to bed, they can teach their men who are only proficient in writing a lesson. It can also be regarded as a new kind of boudoir pleasure."

This was said by Deputy Commander Lei, who smiled like a flower. Only his comrades and subordinates could see clearly the teasing look in his eyes.

"What a joy in the boudoir! I will give this set of books to Deputy Commander Lei tonight." Shen Laoliu grinned and moved the set of books to his feet, and he and his wife, Second Lieutenant Long Ying, started to bite each other.

"Idiot, Mrs. Lei is not here, who did you scare by sending him? I can't understand it anyway, why don't you just put it somewhere so Long Yan can take a look at it?" Long Ying gave her stupid husband a big roll of his eyes.

Sister Fu Di Mo must never forget her dear brother at any time!

"Yes! Madam, you are right! Lieutenant Long is going to be a general in the future. You must read this history carefully!" Shen Laoliu woke up as if from a dream, his head was pounding.

Long Yan: I thank you two for loving me so much that you gave me the pair of golden mandarin ducks!

Rostav's generosity really shocked the discerning people in the audience, but they underestimated women.

Especially a woman who receives news that the man she likes is getting married.

The cooperation between the Four Elements Group and the Rockefeller family is highly confidential. Not to mention that the little foreign girl cannot come to congratulate her in person. Even the invitations written by Tantai Mingyue cannot be sent. They can only be conveyed by Gong Shaoxun on her behalf.

As a result, this person could not come, but the gift was indispensable.

The Rockefeller Company's transport fleet was "robbed" completely by the guerrillas five days ago, and the tightly wrapped large wooden boxes were secretly transported to the headquarters of the Fourth Army Regiment yesterday.

The eldest daughter of the Rockefeller family was named a wealthy Chinese businessman who supported China's war of resistance. The gift she gave was even more domineering than that of the arms dealer Rostav.

Anyway, the guns sent by China Communications were to the Four Elements Group, and the books were given to the newcomers.

But this mysterious rich man's gifts to the newlyweds were guns and knives. He only needed the words "Knife, Gun, Eyeless" to give to the bride and groom who were about to live together and would inevitably fight. Tantai Mingyue, who knew it well, did not change her expression, but her eyes turned and glanced at a certain group of people with innocent faces, which meant: "Miss Laura's gift was chosen very deliberately!"

But this time, the reporter from Tantai University did not use the Nine-yin White Bone Pinch, a special technique for controlling husbands. It was not because he was afraid of the crowd, but because I didn’t do anything, and didn’t even say anything. Hey, you foreign bitch is so angry!

No wonder people say love is a sad relationship. You see, even if you are as smart as a bright moon, you can't help but have a lot of inner drama when faced with this kind of love between a man and a woman, right?

The brides were given guns, each a small Browning pocket version pistol.

The Colt-Browning 1908 pistol produced by the American Colt Company is only 11.4 centimeters long and weighs only 350 grams. It is loaded with six rounds and has a range of up to 30 meters. It has always been the favorite of the upper class in China. Self-defense weapons.

Moreover, Miss Laura, who is very thoughtful, also specially blackened each gun. The faint baked blue luster makes the pocket pistol small and exquisite, which is very suitable for women to use. What is even more considerate is that each gun has The gun was engraved with the bride's name.

Even the ladies who don't like guns are very happy about this unexpected gift.

In addition to guns, there are also holsters made of calfskin.

Tang Tuanzuo looked at the holster and couldn't help but feel an inexplicable sense of familiarity.

Because the holster is not hung on the waist, but tied to the thigh.

This should also be the way that little foreign girls designed women to carry guns.

The sight of a young foreign girl wearing jodhpurs with such a gun on her slender and strong thigh suddenly appeared in front of a certain group member. Somehow, it actually felt quite charming.

By this time, nylon stockings should have been on the market in the United States! If not, this should be considered a good business!

Tang Tuanzuo's imagination instantly changed from stockings to beautiful knives flying all over the sky. If he remembered correctly, when the first batch of nylon stockings went on sale in the United States, thousands of women rushed into stores to buy them. Only 4 Within days, total sales were close to tens of millions of dollars, and the inventor, DuPont, was merciless in collecting money.

Even the founder of Chanel said: ‘Don’t go out without a hat, and don’t go out without stockings’.

It was already the beginning of 1939, so I had to take the time to ask the little foreign girl first.

And let’s do it! Look at this holster again. If the wives of my subordinates all learn how to hang their guns, just think about the impatient men under me who lifted up their wives' skirts and found their thighs during the wedding. The moment a pistol was inserted into his body, Tang Dao couldn't help but show his teeth.

Will these guys feel a little wilted at that moment?

The inner drama of a certain group member is no less than that of his own wife.

All I can say is that this is a magical couple!

"Why are you laughing?" Tantai Mingyue, who had repeatedly persuaded herself to be calm, looked at her giggling husband standing there, and her eyebrows finally stood up.

"Honey, please wear this gun at night, and I'll tell you why I'm laughing!" Tang Tuanzuo whispered into Tantai Mingyue's ear.

"Stay away from me, I'm on stage!" Tantai Mingyue was not as shameless as Tang Tuanzuo, and she was flirting with her husband in front of tens of thousands of people.

I just think my husband’s smile is weird. What’s so funny about wearing a small pistol?

It is estimated that reporters from Tantai University will only discover someone's unknown hobbies when they get married.

Uniforms, that, that, really, even men can’t escape!

The gifts given by the little foreign girl to the grooms are also very special.

As the standard weapon of the Four Lines Regiment, the power of the triangular spur has shown great power in hand-to-hand combat. As long as it is stabbed in the torso, the Japanese army will soon lose too much blood and lose the ability to fight due to the huge wound.

However, only the assassination function is too single, especially in the increasingly complex battlefield environment in the future.

Tang Dao has long wanted to make a standard military knife for use by frontline infantry. However, the mechanical processing equipment and manpower at the military factory are limited after all, and the materials that meet the requirements of Tang Dao are also insufficient. Teacher Xiao He cannot make it. Hundreds of sabers can only be used by a few people.

When Tang Dao escorted Laura to Jiangcheng last time, he gave his design plan and material requirements, and asked her to help borrow the powerful machining capabilities of the United States to make a suitable saber.

After Tang Dao returned to the Sixings Group, the little foreign girl sent a secret message saying that the first batch of 200 sample knives had arrived.

The gift that the little foreign girl gave to these grooms and officers was exactly the saber, 200 of the 22 sample knives.

As a soldier, apart from his comrades, the most trusted person is undoubtedly the weapon in his hand, but for a knife, a primitive murder weapon, it undoubtedly belongs to the category of weapons that they trust and like.

In addition to being equipped with standard weapons such as triangular spurs, many soldiers in the Four Lines Regiment also use their favorite daggers.

For example, Cai Yongguan likes to use the thick-backed sword specially made for him, and Lei Xiong carries a Tang Dao personally designed for him to imitate the tiger tooth saber of his previous life.

Although everyone has different preferences for knives, some knives can attract you instantly.

The knife sent by the little foreign girl was completely black, with a long blade that was sharpened on both sides like a short sword, but it was slightly tightened at the handle, making people almost forget that it was a knife, a knife that could kill people. The knife is like a handicraft.

Although every soldier knows that the whole body is pitch black to prevent the sharp blade from reflecting light. This kind of knife is used to kill people.

However, this knife can be used for more than just killing people.

If you are a military enthusiast from the future, you may blurt out a name the moment you see this double-edged blade - European military obstacle removal knife.

Yes, Tang Dao did not choose the standard military knife of the future Republic, nor did it choose the extremely famous American tactical assault knife in the future. Instead, it chose this standard obstacle-clearing knife.

Because the requirements for other sabers on machine tools and materials are too high, which cannot be achieved with current mechanical technology. Instead of making a saber that looks like a tiger but cannot be compared with a dog, it is better to use a saber that is fully achievable with current technology to imitate it.

Like the European military obstacle-clearing knives in my memory, the newly produced saber blade is also made of a 6 mm thick steel bar, and then the blade is polished on a large-diameter roller grindstone to form a slight air-grinding edge shape. , on this basis, the final opening is completed by manual convex grinding.

It is characterized by being extremely sharp while maintaining a strong edge.

The steel material is based on Tang Dao's request. The highest hardness naval warship gun barrel steel is selected, and then undergoes special heat treatment to make it have amazing toughness.

Only this kind of knife can cut through the barbed wire fence with one knife, and can also dig up the ground and pry out the mines buried in the ground.

Tang Dao had personally tested it last night. This knife can not only penetrate an inch-thick steel plate, but also cut off steel bars as thick as a little finger. Although the hardness of the steel is slightly inferior to that of the future, it can still be called the most powerful knife of this era. Good military troubleshooting knife.

Even the thread wrapped around the handle is made of special materials that absorb sweat and prevent slipping. After being untied, the ten-meter-long thin thread can withstand the weight of an adult and has a bearing capacity of at least 800 pounds.

The cost of this knife alone is as high as 400 oceans, which is comparable to the cost of an MG42.

Several people in the regiment originally thought Tang Tuanzuo was crazy when they heard the cost, but after actually using this kind of knife, they all agreed that Tang Tuanzuo was completely crazy and squandered.

This is definitely the best gift the groomsmen received today.

As for the friendly troops and the officers and soldiers of the Four Lines Regiment below, isn't that one with a dark look in his eyes?

Just because of this gift, those who were not married secretly vowed to find a wife in the new year.

But as the newlyweds on the stage paid their respects to their comrades, parents and husbands after receiving the gifts, after Lei Xiong announced that the wedding was over, Tang Tuanzuo, the groom's official, stood in front of the microphone with a smile.

"Guns and knives are not necessarily obtained only by receiving gifts at weddings. After lunch, there will be a military competition between the Four Lines Group and the friendly forces. The top three in each event will be rewarded. In addition, there will also be a big lottery. Everyone is welcome to attend. Participants and guests actively participated.”

As soon as these words came out, the audience burst into cheers.

Brigadier Cheng Da and Brigadier Kong Da smiled brightly and were gearing up. They were almost waiting for this show.

This is not an impromptu idea of ​​Tang Tuanzuo. This is the New Year's Eve process that has been planned for a long time. It is also the New Year's Eve celebration second only to collective weddings.
