Lin Guisheng decided to have a break with Liang Wuyi and Broadway Building.
Of course, Lin Guisheng also knew very well that Huang Huangrong's status in the Green Gang was no longer what it used to be, and the Green Gang had actually been torn apart, and there was no way to form a joint force. Therefore, if he wanted to rely on the strength of the Green Gang family to bring down the Broadway Building and the people behind him,
Japanese, that is simply wishful thinking.
However, there are still people who can deal with Liang Wuyi and the Japanese.
Although Liang Wuyi was arrogant, and although there were Japanese backing behind the Broadway Building, there were still people in Shanghai who could control them. Not to mention the foreigners, just the lone military camp that kidnapped the foreigners a while ago and finally forced the British to sue for peace.
Yes, it should be the patrol camp now. The patrol camp can take care of the Broadway Building!
The patrol battalion not only killed the British ace Gurkha Royal Infantry Battalion, but also defeated the Japanese army's rescue intention. This is not just a boast, but a real record! The patrol battalion is so capable, it should be more than enough to deal with the Broadway Building. As for the
During the confrontation between the two sides in the western part of the concession, Lin Guisheng was more willing to believe that the patrol camp was not doing its best.
All living beings are bustling for profit, and all living beings are bustling for profit. If there is no profit drive, why would the patrol camp fight with life and death against Broadway Building for the opium industry of Huang Gongguan and Lin Tianyu? But if Huang Gongguan gave
Lin Guisheng believed that the patrol camp would make every effort to help if the patrol camp received huge enough benefits.
So Lin Guisheng's idea was to invest heavily in buying up the patrol camp.
Only when Broadway Building is begged for mercy by the patrol battalion can she intervene as a middleman. At that time, she can ask Broadway Building to release Huang Jinrong as a condition. Of course, if the patrol battalion can directly capture Broadway Building and rescue Huang Jinrong,
And the stolen meat tickets, that would be even better.
Seriously speaking, Lin Guisheng's idea is quite right.
The patrol battalion did not even give face to the British. It still holds more than a hundred Italian prisoners of war and prisoners of war from the Royal Gorkha Infantry Battalion. Naturally, they will not give face to the Japanese. After all, during the Songhu Battle, the patrol battalion
The battalion also fought a battle with the Japanese at Sihang Warehouse, and the two sides had a bloody feud.
There is no doubt about the combat effectiveness of the patrol battalion. A mere battalion was able to continuously defeat the military adventures of the British and Japanese. In the end, it forced the Concession Ministry of Industry and Commerce Bureau to classify the entire western area of the concession as the patrol battalion's sphere of influence. This way
With such impressive martial arts skills, if you look at the whole of China, there is probably only one military camp.
More importantly, the Broadway Building also robbed the western part of the concession.
Therefore, as long as enough benefits are paid, it is entirely possible for the patrol camp and Broadway Building to go into full-scale war.
As soon as he thought of it, Lin Guisheng immediately contacted several senior Green Gang bosses and prepared a heavy gift. Then he took this heavy gift worth fifty thousand oceans and followed several senior Green Gang bosses.
We arrived at the patrol camp hand in hand. The officers and soldiers in the patrol camp were not as rude as the agents at Broadway Building. They simply asked a few questions and let me go.
The car of Lin Guisheng and several Green Gang bosses soon drove into the patrol camp.
However, when Lin Guisheng and several Qinggang gangsters got out of the car, they were stunned for a moment because they saw two trucks parked on the patrol camp's playground, and a group of patrol battalion officers and soldiers were getting off the trucks.
Moving corpses, yes, they are corpses wrapped in white shrouds.
Lin Guisheng stopped a soldier and asked: "Brother, what is going on?"
"Don't mention it!" the soldier replied angrily, "We just fought another battle with the Broadway Building people, and more than thirty old brothers died. I will demolish the Broadway Building sooner or later.
it!"
Lin Guisheng and several Green Gang bosses were stunned at first, and then secretly rejoiced. It seemed that the patrol camp and the Broadway Building were already in trouble, and there was no need for them to fan the flames.
However, Lin Guisheng was also secretly frightened.
In just one battle, so many people died in the patrol battalion. It seems that the strength of Broadway Building is stronger than expected. It will not be easy for the patrol battalion to defeat Broadway Building!
Therefore, it is impossible to say that Huang Mansion will have to pay greater benefits.
Lin Guisheng exchanged glances with several Qing Gang bosses without leaving any trace, and then went up to the second floor.
Xie Yuan warmly received Lin Guisheng and his party in the office, and even served Ye Ming tea.
"Boss Lin." Xie Yuan clasped his fists and bowed his head. He knew that Lin Guisheng was Sister Bai from Shanghai, and he didn't like others to call her Mrs. Huang, so he called her "Boss Lin" and said, "Why do you want to come to my patrol camp?
"
Xie Yuan is a pure soldier and doesn't mince words, so he gets straight to the point when he comes up.
Lin Guisheng said: "Our Western Concession Chamber of Commerce heard that in order to maintain public security in the Western Concession, the patrol battalion had been engaged in fierce battles with the Broadway Building in recent days, and the casualties were quite high, so we prepared some small gifts, and recommended that I and several senior Qing Gang veterans
I came to express my condolences and please thank Sir for not being too little."
After saying that, Lin Guisheng turned around and waved his hand, and a thug stepped forward holding a small box.
Lin Guisheng opened the box, and there were fifty pieces of gold neatly arranged in the box.
Lin Guisheng pointed to the gold in the box and said, "This is five hundred taels of gold. Please be sure to accept it, sir."
Xie Yuan was amazed in his heart. Lin Guisheng was indeed the Bai Xiangjie from Shanghai. She got five hundred taels of gold in one move. He smiled and waved his hand and said, "Why are you so embarrassed about this?"
"These small gifts are nothing compared to the sacrifices made by the patrol battalion officers." Lin Guisheng stared at Xie Yuan's eyes and continued, "What's more, the patrol battalion officers sacrificed their lives to protect the merchants in the west area of our concession.
Those who sacrificed their lives, their pensions and condolences should be paid by us."
Several other Green Gang bosses also echoed.
In fact, Xie Yuan had already received Xu Rui's warning, and he laughed and said: "That's fine, I won't be polite."
After saying that, Xie Yuan turned his head and nodded gently. Ye Ming, who was standing behind Xie Yuan, immediately stepped forward, took the box from the Green Gang thug, and then stood behind Xie Yuan.
Seeing Xie Yuan accepting the gift, Lin Guisheng showed a smile on his face.
As long as Xie Yuan accepts the gift, the next thing will be much easier to handle.
"This is what Chief Xie and the officers and soldiers of the patrol battalion deserve. There is no need to be polite." Lin Guisheng smiled slightly and continued, "Sir Xie, I was in the yard just now and saw many officers and soldiers of the patrol battalion died, but I didn't know it was because of
What? Are the Japs in Broadway Building so powerful that even the patrol battalion officers are no match for them?"
"Bullshit!" Ye Ming immediately interjected, "Those devils in the Broadway Building are not worthy of carrying the shoes of our brothers in the patrol camp! If it weren't for our poor weapons and insufficient ammunition, how could we do this?
Suffering such a big loss? If we had half their equipment level, we would have killed them so many times."
"Shut up!" Xie Yuan immediately turned around and glared, "Where is the place for you to talk here? Get out!"
Ye Ming flattened his mouth and left unconvinced, holding the small box containing five hundred taels of gold.
Xie Yuan said to Lin Guisheng again: "Boss Lin, your subordinates are ignorant and make you laugh."
"This little brother is also a temperamental person. Sir Xie, please don't punish him." Lin Guisheng waved his hands and said, "However, what this little brother just said is the truth?"
A hint of embarrassment appeared on Xie Yuan's face. He really couldn't lie.
The weapons of Broadway Building are really good, but the weapons and equipment of their patrol battalion are not bad either. The reason why there have been so many casualties in the firefight with Broadway Building in the past few days is entirely because of Xu Rui's order. Xu Rui ordered them to take casualties.
If it's bigger, they can't disobey. This has nothing to do with the quality of the equipment.
However, Xie Yuan's embarrassment turned into hesitation in the eyes of Lin Guisheng and others.
At that moment, Lin Guisheng said again: "Sir Xie, if you really have any difficulties in the patrol camp, just say so."
The purpose of Lin Guisheng's visit this time was to make friends with the patrol camp and give money to the patrol camp to buy weapons and ammunition. Therefore, she was not afraid that Xie Yuan would speak, but she was afraid that Xie Yuan would not speak.
However, Xie Yuan had to ask for this, instead of her rushing to give people money.
Because Xie Yuan asked for money, he would owe her Lin Guisheng a favor, but if she, Lin Guisheng, took the initiative to give money, Xie Yuan would think that it was what he deserved and would not feel that he owed her.
Lin Guisheng had already said this, so Xie Yuan just said it directly.
Xie Yuan sighed and said: "To be honest with Boss Lin and everyone else, what Adjutant Ye said is true. Our patrol battalion is indeed fighting against the Broadway Building because of poor weapons and a serious shortage of ammunition.
Being at a disadvantage in the crossfire, if not for this, how could Broadway Building be allowed to be so rampant?"
Lin Guisheng turned around again and looked at several Qinggang gangsters. He was secretly happy and finally spoke!
At that moment, Lin Guisheng said again: "Sir Xie, I wonder how many pieces of weapons and equipment and ammunition should be purchased so that the patrol battalion will not lose in the confrontation with the Broadway Building?"
Xie Yuan thought for a while and said: "Through the firefights in the past few days, we found that the firepower of the Broadway Building is very fierce. Their agents basically have two twenty-gun box cannons. This kind of box cannon is especially suitable for fighting in the city.
Therefore, if we want to overwhelm the Broadway Building in terms of firepower, we must be equipped with submachine guns with more powerful firepower!"
"Submachine gun?" Lin Guisheng said, "The price of an MP38 submachine gun imported from Germany is fifty dollars. I wonder how many submachine guns Commander Xie needs?"
Xie Yuan subconsciously tapped his fingers on the table. He was still not used to lying.
Seeing Xie Yuanmo's silence, Lin Guisheng gritted his teeth and said, "Sir Xie, let's do this. We are willing to spend 100,000 US dollars to help the patrol battalion purchase 1,000 MP38 submachine guns and one million submachine gun ammunition."
