    "Forty percent!" Li Chenglong said, "This is the bottom line!"

    "One percent!" Zhong Yi said, "No more!"

    "Thirty percent!" Li Chenglong said, "Otherwise, our military commander will not bear the blame!"

    "Twenty percent!" Zhong Yi gritted his teeth and said, "It's just 20 percent, not even a penny more!"

    "Okay, two makes two percent!" Li Chenglong said, "Brother Zi Ren, I really didn't realize before that you are such a picky person that you are reluctant to give me more than just a ten percent benefit. It's useless for me to treat you as a good person."  brother!"

    Zhong Yi said: "Brothers are brothers, business is business, it's better to make it clear."

    While he was talking, the gunshots in the Xu Mansion in front had fallen silent.

    After a while, the operations captain Meng Jiayou ran over happily.

    "Webmaster!" Meng Jiayou said, "Catch Xu Yuanquan!"

    Li Chenglong nodded and said, "No one sacrificed, right?"

    "No." Meng Jiayou said, "Only two brothers failed."

    "Okay." Li Chenglong stood up and said to Zhong Yi, "Brother, the next step is to torture Xu Yuanquan and squeeze out all the wealth he has accumulated over the years. Do you want to participate?"

    "How can I have this time?" Zhong Yi said, "Ask it out, and send 90% of it to the garrison headquarters. In addition, it is best to use hard currencies such as US dollars, pounds, and gold."

    Li Chenglong smiled and said, "Brother, aren't you afraid of my manipulation?"

    Zhong Yi turned around and glanced at Li Chenglong, turned around and walked away.

    Watching Zhong Yi go away, the smile on Li Chenglong's face slowly faded, and he told the Meng family: "Go, bring Xu Yuanquan to me. A waste like him must be a bamboo tube under three trees."  ."

    "Yes!" The Meng family responded, turned around and went to lead the people.

    ¡­¡­

    Let¡¯s talk about Zhong Yi. After leaving Jianghan Academy, he went straight to the dock.

    When we arrived at the pier, we got on the river ferry again, crossed the Yangtze River to Hankou, and then went straight to the U.S. Embassy in Wuhan.

    Hearing that it was Zhong Yi who came to visit, Jason and Stilwell immediately greeted him at the gate of the embassy in person, and then welcomed Zhong Yi into the living room with great enthusiasm.

    "General Zhong, I finally see you in person!" Jason said.

    Stilwell also said with emotion: "General Zhong is really young and promising."

    Hearing this, Zhong Yi said in surprise: "Ambassador Johnson and Colonel Stilwell know about me?"

    "Of course." Stilwell said, "When your 367th regiment was guarding Xinjiekou, Nanjing, the two of us would stay in front of the radio every day to listen to the voice of Nanjing."

    This surprised Zhong Yi.

    You didn¡¯t expect that you are still a fan of yourself?

    "Ashamed." Zhong Yi said, "Nanjing was not able to hold on in the end."

    "That's not your fault." Stilwell said hurriedly, "Besides, retreating to preserve your strength is also a wise move."

    While talking, the waiter had already brought three cups of coffee, and Jason said: "General Zhong, please drink coffee. This is the coffee I brought back from the United States."

    "Thank you." Zhong Yi took the coffee and tilted his head politely.

    After taking a sip of coffee, Zhong Yi went straight to the topic without any nonsense: "Ambassador Johnson, Colonel Stilwell, I am here to ask you a favor."

    ¡°Please tell me,¡± Jason said, ¡°we will definitely help as long as we can do it.¡±

    Zhong Yi said: "The Wuhan Defense War is imminent, but our Wuhan Garrison Headquarters doesn't even have a decent howitzer, let alone a large-caliber fortress cannon!"

    Jason and Stilwell looked at each other and asked, "Do you want to buy cannons from the United States?"

    "If it's possible, that's the best!" Zhong Yi also knew that the United States was trapped in isolationism at this time, so he immediately said, "If it's inconvenient, can you help us contact the British or Belgian arms dealers? As long as the performance is  A good howitzer or a large-caliber fortress gun will do."

    Hearing this, Jason breathed a sigh of relief and said: "There is absolutely no problem with this. As long as the money is in place, cannons of any caliber can be purchased from the international market."

    After a pause, Jason added: "I happen to know a few arms dealers, and I can help you place an order now."

    "Really, this is great!" Zhong Yi was overjoyed when he heard this. Although he knew that Jason and Stilwell were pro-China representatives, he still didn't expect the two to be so friendly. In fact, this is normal. Jason and Stilwell were  The reason why Stilwell was pro-Chinese was not because they really liked the Chinese, but just out of sympathy.??It's just my caution.

    At that moment, Zhong Yi said again: "I hope to be able to order at least 12 Krupp fortress guns with a caliber of 200mm and above, and at least 24 grenades with a caliber of 155mm! As for the artillery shells, the fortress shells with a caliber of 200mm and above need at least 12,000 rounds, and the 155mm caliber grenades need at least 120,000  Hair! Even more!"

    "Oh, cake seller!" Jason said, "Do you need so many cannonballs?"

    Stilwell also said: "General Zhong, you may not need so many artillery shells."

    "Okay, okay." Jason said, "In that case, the fortress gun will be the Krupp 280mm fortress gun made in Germany. Germany is an ally of Japan and may not be willing to sell it, but we can still buy it from Belgium. As for what you want  For large-caliber howitzers, choose the m1918 155mm-caliber howitzer."

    After a pause, Jason continued: "But General Zhong, the transaction must be in cash, and it cannot use legal currency. It must be US dollars, pounds, or gold directly."

    "This is no problem." Zhong Yi said, "But Ambassador Johnson, in terms of price"

    "Don't worry about this." Jason said, "I know that the Chinese government is in trouble, so the price must be the lowest price, a friendly price! In this case, please go back and wait for the news, General Zhong. I will contact the Belgian arms dealer in Shanghai as soon as possible.  , I will let you know as soon as there is any news."

    After a pause, Jason continued: "But you'd better prepare the money first. The specific figure is unclear, but I estimate that to purchase the arms you need, you will need at least six million US dollars!"  "

    Zhong Yi is familiar with the historical materials of World War II and is familiar with the arms prices of this era. The number mentioned by Jason is not much different from the number he expected. This shows that Zhan Zhong did not intend to take advantage of it.

    Jensen added: "General Zhan, my arms dealer friend not only supplies various types of cannons, but also various types of firearms, including rifles, machine guns, and submachine guns. Aren't you going to buy a batch?"

    Zhong Yi smiled bitterly when he heard this. Of course he wanted to buy it, but the problem was that he was short of money!

    ¡°This batch of arms alone is estimated to be able to use up the funds obtained from combating pornography, gambling, drugs and combating smuggling.

    In the case of insufficient funds, you can only use good steel on the blade and buy cannons first!

    Because two days ago, Zhong Yi had seen the naval guns removed from the warships and found that the models were old and the number of shells in reserve was not large, so they were not of much use at all!  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
