Chapter 776 This is considered as compensation for Takeshita Shun
The matter of recognition of relatives was thus settled.
This was a huge happy event. Xiao Ye, whether to make up for it or for some other reason, specially went out to buy a pig, and then set up a few tables at the regiment headquarters. He asked Xu Hu to send the rest to the medical company. Those were all girls, and he couldn't let them suffer any injustice.
After the family reunion banquet, Xiao's father asked Takeshita Shun to take him out to buy gifts.
In the small living room outside Zhou Jixian's temporary residence, Zhou Weiguo and three others knelt respectfully in front of Zhou Jixian.
"Dad, I am an unfilial son. I made you travel back and forth away from home at your age."
"Get up quickly, get up quickly." Zhou Jixian's eyes were slightly red after he signaled the three to get up. No one was responsible for leaving his hometown, but what did this have to do with his son? Monster, he could only blame the Japanese army for being too powerful and his own country for being too weak.
If the country is too powerful, how dare they invade?
After letting the three of them sit down, Zhou Jixian took a sip of tea and looked at Awen; "What's going on with Takeshita Shun's family?"
The three of them looked at each other, not knowing how to explain.
Zhou Weiguo hesitated for a moment before cautiously saying, "My son and he knew each other a long time ago, at the Non-Commissioned Officer School. He later went to the Berlin Military Academy to learn small-unit combat. He was so powerful, my son resorted to some means to kill his family and his master."
Zhou Jixian nodded and continued drinking his tea. The three of them couldn't tell what expression their father had.
Chaoxiang Xiuling said cautiously, "Father, there's nothing we can do about it. At that time, it was already..."
"Oh." Zhou Jixian waved his hand. "I don't mean to blame you for chasing me, but you have to keep this matter to yourself and don't say it out loud, otherwise the kindness will turn into hatred."
"Father is right. We will never tell anyone." Minamizō Akiko immediately stated her position.
Zhou Jixian put down his teacup after seeing the three men understand. "In that case, we are relieved. Now that we have met, we will set off for the mountain city tomorrow."
"Father, won't you and father-in-law stay for a while?" We just met and you're leaving. Isn't that too hasty?
Zhou Jixian shook his head. "The country is in a difficult situation. Your father-in-law and I have been out looking for us these past few days. We still lack a lot. Medicines, alcohol, and even cigarettes. We have decided to open a cigarette factory. The equipment..."
"Father, leave the equipment issue to us." I can get light industrial equipment for free. Hasegawa Kiyoshi has light industrial equipment.
Zhou Jixian nodded without refusing. "Alright."
Early the next morning, Zhou Jixian and Xiao's father left together.
Before leaving, Zhou Jixian discovered that the jade pendant hanging around Takeshita Shun's neck, if he was not mistaken, this thing should represent the token of the next head of the Xiao family.
He was very curious, so after the people who were seeing them off could no longer see them, Zhou Jixian asked in confusion, "Why did you leave the master's jade pendant to Takeshita Shun?" You really treated him like a son.
Father Xiao glanced at Zhou Jixian and said, "You old man, when Xiao Ya got married, I almost emptied out the Xiao family's assets. Now all I gave to Takeshita Jun is a jade pendant and a few remaining things. What's the matter? Are you resentful of me for having a son?"
Zhou Jixian's face turned pale. "Who cares about your little shop?"
"Okay, okay, I finally figured it out." Father Xiao chuckled twice and then took out a cigarette and lit it. "Well, actually, Xiao Ya has already told me that Takeshita Shun is in a very miserable situation. I left him something, which can be regarded as compensation."
Zhou Jixian waved away the pervasive smell of cigarette smoke. "You're right. There are many people in this world who have become orphans and widows, but Takeshita Shun was caused by the combined efforts of our two families. It's only right to give him some compensation."
I should give him some compensation, after all, he has to fight side by side with Awen.
Although the attack on British colonies was stopped, the war against Annan was not over.
The Marines, addicted to looting, also fully participated in the attack on Annan.
Kowloon, the Third Fleet Headquarters and Kowloon Governor's Office.
Just as Hase Kiyoshi signed a document, his adjutant Hisamiya Ichi handed him a telegram. "General, this is a secret message from Takahashi Ichi."
Takahashi Ichi followed Xiao Ya to the mountain city, and Hisamiya Ichi knew about this.
Hase Kiyoshi asked without even looking up, "What's the matter?"
"Takahashi said that Mrs. Zhou and her family needed two sets of cigarette factory equipment and hoped we could find them and transport them via the Beibu Gulf Channel."
Cigarette factory equipment?
Chang Guqing lowered his head and pondered for a moment before nodding. "It's not difficult to get the equipment for this cigarette factory. You will be in charge of this matter. Get them two machines and tell them to come and pick them up."
Hisamiya nodded, then asked with a puzzled look on his face, "General, given the current situation in Mountain City, I'm afraid it will be difficult to withstand the Empire's simultaneous attacks from multiple directions. Shouldn't we urgently terminate our cooperation with them?"
Terminating the cooperation at this time is also to avoid unnecessary trouble after the mountain city is occupied in the future.
Hase Kiyoshi could understand what Hisamiya Ichi meant, but he didn't intend to do that.
Knowing that Hisaguchi needed an explanation, and since nothing was wrong at the moment, he gestured for Hisaguchi to speak. "The Empire is simply holding its breath, venting the humiliation and anger inflicted by the United States on Yamashiro. But this doesn't mean we can capture Yamashiro in one fell swoop and force their surrender. Britain won't agree, and neither will the Soviet Union. You have to understand that if Yamashiro surrenders, the Japanese-controlled area will extend directly to Central Asia. Do you think Britain will agree?"
"General, do you mean that Beisu will intervene?"
Of course they would intervene. If his guess was correct, with the start of the battle in the Ninth War Zone, the Shancheng Air Force, which had never had any air combat advantage, would once again have an unprecedented opportunity.
"Just ask the Special High Technology Department to investigate Beisu's recent actions. As for why we should continue to cooperate with Zhou Weiguo, the reason is actually very simple. Cooperating with him is the way to maximize our benefits."
"But General, as our war zone expands, these transportation lines will become longer and longer. In the long run, this won't be a good thing for us. But right now, isn't this the best outcome? I think the headquarters is just going along with the situation."
Go with the flow?
Chang Guqing nodded; "What you said is indeed correct, but you forgot one thing."
