Chapter 44: A New Mission Comes

Zhao Zhi and Ye Kong and a few of them had already returned to Shanghai, but they didn't go home directly, because Zhao Zhi had a new job, which was introduced by Hunter. The smoke in the warehouse office of Hunter choked Luo Ying and rolled his eyes, Zhao Zhi's people are all here, Meng San, Yu Dazhi, Mo Lun and the new Ye Kong are also here, Yu Dazhi and a few of them who have changed into foreign clothes also look a little high-spirited, and even Luo Ying, who is a little ghost, was changed into a set of British-style small suits by Zhao Zhi.

Seeing that Zhao Zhizheng was looking at himself with a smile, Luo Ying couldn't help but pout, "This dress is not good at all, it's like my previous clothes, sit if you want to, lie down if you want to" Luo Ying tugged at the front lining of the suit in distress, and turned his eyes to Zhao Zhi with a smiling face, "Master Zhao, why don't I change back to my old clothes, I am too uncomfortable to wear this clothes, and the whole person has become hard."

"Silly boy, do you know how much your dress costs? It's enough for me to drink for a month," Meng San smiled and rubbed Luo Ying's head. On the first day of arriving in Shanghai, Zhao Zhi took everyone to live in the best hotel in Shanghai, and also found foreign tailors to customize clothes for everyone. Not to mention the cost of customizing clothes, it was the tip that Zhao Zhi gave to the waiter, which also made Meng San and the others smack.

Luo Ying and the others joked, Zhao Zhi didn't have the time to pay attention, he was discussing with Hunter the remuneration and follow-up issues of this mission. This time the task was not simple, and the successful journey had already captured most of Shanxi, and three American missionaries had fallen into the hands of the army. Later, the three missionaries were rescued from the hands of the local anti-Japanese forces, and after contacting Hunter, Hunter decided to hire Zhao Zhi to pick up the three missionaries and bring them back to Shanghai or Tianjin, and then send them on an ocean freighter.

The last time we heard from the three missionaries was a week ago, when they had been sent to Linshui County near Taiyuan by the anti-Japanese forces. Zhao Zhi's mission was to go to Linshui to find the three missionaries and bring them back safely. However, since Han Fuyu abandoned Shandong, the entire Shandong has fallen into the hands of the army, and Henan is also full of army, Zhao Zhi must pass through the defense area of the army if he wants to reach Shanxi from Shanghai, so this mission is very dangerous.

However, the conditions offered by Hunter are still very generous, all the weapons and equipment are provided by the US military, as long as Zhao Zhi can say it, Hunter will try his best to get it, don't forget, there is still an American warship floating on the Huangpu River, there are weapons of all ages on it. Zhao Zhi was a little hesitant, plus the dozen or so gangsters recruited by Yu Dazhi, he only had more than 20 people on his hands, and except for Ye Kong, none of these people had ever touched a gun at all, and it was obviously very unwise to take such a person to fight thousands of miles to Shanxi.

"How much time do I have to prepare? My people still need to be familiar with weapons, and it takes time," Zhao Zhi said, playing with the three-edged bayonet in his hand, which was specially customized by Tokhant with a lathe in the factory in Shanghai when Zhao Zhi was leaving.

"Four days, I can only give you four days, the offensive of the Yue army in Shanxi is very fierce, the goal of those missionaries is too big, I am afraid that if it drags on for a long time, there will be an accident" Hunter actually did not tell the truth, these missionaries were exchanged for weapons by him. Zhao Zhi also sent a batch of weapons and ammunition to the local anti-Japanese armed forces in the past, obviously Hunter is embarrassed to speak now, the danger of this mission Hunter knows, and bringing such a large number of weapons is obviously a fool's dream.

"Tell me, what else do you have? I won't listen to it after a while" Finding Hunter's hesitation, Zhao Zhi couldn't help but start making fun of Hunter. There is no banquet in the world that can be eaten for free, and Zhao Zhi was a mercenary in his previous life, so he naturally knows this truth.

"That, you still need to escort a batch of weapons and ammunition over, this is something that has been agreed with the other party a long time ago, but I can also lend it to 20 people, all of whom are good at using guns" Hunter finally explained everything clearly, and the depression in his heart suddenly disappeared, whatever, even if Zhao Zhi didn't agree, such a task was impossible. Anyway, I'd already done my best, and if it weren't for the fact that one of the missionaries had some connections with the upper echelons of the United States, I wouldn't have bothered to get involved in this.

"Weapons and ammunition? How many? Did the other party specify what type of weapon they wanted? After being silent for a while, Zhao Zhi's eyes rolled to an idea. If you want to organize mercenaries, someone needs to have a gun, and people can find it slowly, but weapons and equipment are a big trouble, you can't buy good weapons with money alone, you have to have a way, especially Zhao Zhi is very fond of foreign guns and equipment, so it is even more difficult. If the United States can really be caught up with the line through Khanty, then the future weapons of the mercenary team will be in place.

"That's not true, it's just that I said that I would give them 200 rifles and 20,000 rounds of ammunition, 3 mortars and 60 shells" Hunter was a little confused, seeing that Zhao Zhi meant to take on this task. Didn't he know the dangers of this mission? Hunter looked at Zhao Zhi with some concern, this old agent who was cunning and cunning had obviously regarded Zhao Zhi as his real good friend, and he was worried about Zhao Zhi.

"Hunter, do you think this is good, I took this task, but I have some different opinions for you" Zhao Zhi leaned on the sofa and lit a cigar, "I will find a way to give the other party's weapons, and I will guarantee that they will be handed over to the other party, and whether the weapons and equipment you promised to deliver can be provided according to my requirements" Seeing that Hunter was a little confused when he heard this, Zhao Zhi smiled and continued to explain, "Let's make an exchange for these two batches of weapons, only you and I know, and your superiors will not know." You know, I'm going to organize a mercenary force, so I need weapons, especially your most advanced weapons in the United States."

"Zhao, you are a merchant of annihilation, the worst guy I've ever seen" Hunter understood what Zhao Zhi meant, didn't he just want to secretly buy this batch of weapons? But Zhao Zhi took the weapon, so what should I do with the weapon given to the other party? What about the missionaries who are still in the hands of others?

"Now the most important thing in Shanxi and Henan is the army, I will get a batch of weapons for each other, so that it is convenient for them to replenish ammunition on the spot, it's very convenient, isn't it?" Zhao Zhi spread out his hands and made a strange appearance at Hunter. Zhao Zhi's idea was to rob the weapons and equipment of the Yue army in exchange for the missionaries, which could not only destroy the Yue army, but also complete the task and fund the anti-Japanese army.
