In the blockaded area on the west side of the Yangtze River, the platoon arrests here are basically coming to an end. After Beinuma was successfully arrested, Lin Mo went to Wang Hefeng to understand the situation, discussed some matters, and then intensively made final preparations.
Part of the reason for coming here was hinted by Xu Guyu, mainly for profit sharing. After all, they made too much noise here, and there were many people behind to support and assist. These people did not help for no reason.
In the past, due to considerations from all parties, the other party was prevented from taking advantage of the opportunity to search for benefits. In order not to let go of anything that might contain intelligence value, they even ordered their people to be solely responsible for searching and cleaning the battlefield. This was not done by some uninformed people.
In human eyes, it is exclusive benefit.
If they are not allowed to make money, then the Intelligence Department will have to make up for the money. Of course, you can also do it for free, but it will not be that easy to ask people to help you in the future.
As for why Lin Mo was asked to handle this matter, firstly, in the eyes of many people such as Xu Guyu, he is quite 'financial'; secondly, Lin Mo is generous and not petty, and he has various
He also has a clearer grasp of aspects and can grasp the rules better. Of course, it also means to support him and give him opportunities to perform.
Lin Mo drew up a rough standard, and after communicating with Wang Hefeng, went to prepare. The basic reward is three yuan for ordinary soldiers, five yuan for non-commissioned officers, and ten yuan for warrant officers, and then the higher military rank will double the former.
The police side is the same as the comparison, but the maximum basic reward on both sides is not more than fifty. In addition to the basic reward, the basic reward will be doubled for those who participated in the battle, were injured, killed in action, or discovered something, etc.
Additional rewards may be given depending on circumstances.
The first people Lin Mo approached were naturally the assisting troops who had fought a tough battle before and had suffered heavy casualties and had temporarily rested. After all, they came back to assist and they had put in a lot of effort, so they naturally had to give priority.
"Commander Zheng, Commander Yang, please don't take it too little, just give it a little thought! The relationship between us is quite delicate. If you give too much, the nature will change, and it will not be good for anyone."
Lin Mo broke an ocean letter into two and gave half of it to each person. Fifty dollars was not a small amount in this era, but it didn't matter. With their status and military rank, it was far from enough.
But they can't give too much. They are already mid-level officers. If they give too much, they will be suspected of bribery. The Intelligence Division is responsible for monitoring the military. This is a very taboo issue and is not good for both parties.
The two of them nodded and accepted without saying anything, obviously understanding this. Then Lin Mo took out two small boxes from his pocket, one containing two euphemisms, and the other containing two euphemisms and a pocket watch.
"For the remaining rewards, I took the initiative and replaced them with these. They were all seized from the enemy. After inspection, everything is normal. They can be used as trophies for personal use, or they can be given to some suitable colleagues and superiors as gifts."
The watches were taken from the enemy during this operation. At least one of them had a timepiece, and many even had two or three watches of various styles found on their bodies.
The two pieces in this box are for Camp Commander Yang. They are not well-known watches, but the quality is good, and the market price is around 20 or 30 yuan. The two watches for Camp Commander Zheng are of similar quality, but the pocket watch is more refined and valuable.
Some, the market price should be around fifty or sixty yuan, which is an extra reward for matching the two of them.
"In addition, a captured Browning pistol has been prepared for each of them as a trophy of this battle, but it will still take some time. We need to check, register, and change the rifling in the gun.
We will arrange for someone to deliver it to you two afterwards."
They looked at their watches with interest, and after listening to Lin Mo's story, both of them had smiles on their faces, obviously very satisfied with the arrangement.
"Can we get more of these watches and pistols and buy them with money? I remember watches and pistols, almost everyone has one of them?"
"...Okay..." Lin Mo thought for a moment before nodding and said: "As for watches, lieutenants and above can buy them, with a flat market price minus 20% depreciation.
But it has to be limited. If you buy it, you can't just specify the troops participating in the war. There are many people cooperating this time, and you have to let others join in. Although a lot has been seized, it can't hold so many people.
As for pistols, company commanders and above can buy them at market prices, but they must be recorded in a book and can only be used as personal firearms. Please understand that the guns were confiscated by us and we are responsible for their intended use.
Of course, if you want to give it as a gift to your superiors or someone, you can purchase additional items, but the whereabouts of the gun also need to be recorded in a book, and if there is any problem in the future, I will have to come to you."
Lin Mo didn't care about the watch. After it was seized and inspected, they had to dispose of it. Who was selling it to? Selling it to these people also added the feeling of a trophy. Not to mention more selling points, the buyer was happy and satisfied.
He had to control the pistol a little bit. After all, it was a weapon. These people had nothing to do with him. He was not worried. If he caused trouble somewhere else, they might be implicated.
Battalion Commander Yang was a little disappointed after hearing this, but he also knew that Lin Mo had made a lot of concessions and didn't say much. The result was acceptable to him.
"By the way, two battalion commanders, the weapons seized this time were probably selected by the other side with a lot of effort. Regardless of performance, maintenance, quality, etc., they are all of excellent quality.
Weapons that were damaged while participating in the war, or weapons that are not satisfactory to the brothers, can be replaced and repaired, and the machine guns captured can also be shared among you.
Of course, we have to take back the old weapons that we replaced, and the relevant information needs to be recorded and submitted for approval, but it is not a big problem. We have the right to dispose of the seized weapons, and the approval only allows the superiors to know these conditions and the source and whereabouts of the weapons."
Naturally, the two of them would not be separated from each other. If it were not for the battlefield cleaned by the intelligence department, the two of them would have done this long ago. Now it is just a few more procedures that add a little trouble, and it is within the acceptable range.
"Where are those small cannons? Can you give me those?"
Battalion Commander Zheng spoke. He had used those small cannons before, and the effect was visible to the naked eye. When he heard that these weapons could be divided up, he was immediately interested.
"It's not a big problem, but I don't recommend it! These small cannons have been out of production for some years. It's hard to get the shells. It's another question whether they can even get them. Moreover, the production quantity of these cannons is small, and they are not standard weapons in the military. Once
In a big war, even if you can get some artillery shells, they will be used up quickly, and it is impossible for logistics to find and distribute them specifically for you. It is too useless and has no effect, so there is no need."
Battalion Commander Zheng shook his head in disappointment, but he also dismissed his thoughts. Their troops basically relied on the government's logistics for their supplies. No one would replenish the ammunition for them when they took this cannon back. It was like burning fire sticks.
"Where are the submachine guns? I see a lot of traps were seized this time?" Seeing that Lin Mo didn't even refuse the cannon, Deputy Battalion Commander Yang also made up his mind.
"No problem, but I don't recommend it either! You must be in the same army as the other troops who came to assist! I see that none of you have any equipment, so it probably means they are not equipped.
The ammunition it uses is not used in other weapons you have installed. If you buy some separately, it will only cause trouble to the logistics of your army.
Let’s do this! I see that many of you below are equipped with speed machines for shell guns. I will equip you with some gun kits plus some thirty-fifty-round extended magazines. You can use them as submachine guns when using full automatic.
Ammunition should be common among your troops.
You should have seen the kit, which is the one that fits outside the shell gun we use. It was developed by our repair shop, but the model will be different. Ours emphasizes concealment and portability, so the one given to you will be larger, but more suitable for you.
In addition, we will also register these, and we hope you will take good care of them and not loan them out. If there is a problem in the future, it will definitely cause you trouble."
"... Don't worry..." Deputy Battalion Commander Yang waved his hand and said with a smile: "We are not the kind of troops that resell weapons. As long as you give them, we will definitely take good care of them.
By the way, we haven't seen those things you put on the muzzles of your guns outside, so they must have been done by you, right? Can you..."
Deputy Battalion Commander Yang had a wretched look on his face and continued to demand belatedly, but this time Lin Mo shook his head like a wavy drum.
"Don't worry about it, it will never be exported. However, the kit will integrate some structural parts that can reduce the recoil, muzzle jump and muzzle flash to a certain extent. These will be enough for your use."
Deputy Battalion Commander Yang did not pester him endlessly. He happily determined when he would get it, for fear that Lin Mo would regret it.
"By the way, two battalion commanders, we will be fully responsible for the wounded, and the rewards and remuneration that should be given will not be less. We will also be fully responsible for the expenses during the recuperation period.
In addition, we will give an additional pension to the officers and soldiers who died, and other rewards and rewards will also be in place, but we will give it directly to their relatives without going through the hands of others. If your superiors will no longer provide pensions for this reason,
We will make up for this together.”
"...No problem..." Battalion Commander Zheng agreed without any hesitation, saying: "I will personally sort out the address of the roster and give it to you later. I don't feel relieved to let those people handle it, but when I go back I will only say that this is your request.
of."
Obviously, both of them are aware of the bad behavior of some people. As middle- and lower-level officers leading troops on the front line, they basically retain their original intentions and generally feel disgusted or even disgusted with such things.
The few of them chatted for a while, and through the connection that they were both from Huangpu, they had a great time chatting and their relationship deepened a lot.
However, they didn't chat for long before Lin Mo said goodbye and left. After all, in addition to this, there were many people from the military unit who were assisting and cooperating, and they also needed him to send money and materials to handle things properly.
Except for a handful of people who were unhappy because they didn't have the chance to play a part in it, the vast majority of people were extremely satisfied with Lin Mo's compensation plan.
At this point, Xu Guyu has successfully handed in a beautiful answer to the task of dividing fruits that he assigned to Lin Mo. At least Xu Guyu believes that even if he does it himself, the result may not be much prettier than Lin Mo.
