"This Liao Mingyu is really bold and has no regard for the rules of the Kuomintang." He Shaozhou pretended to pat the table with an expression of indignation.
He knew the temperament of his old classmate very well. He probably wanted to punish the leader of the Sichuan Army Corps by himself. Such a thankless thing was definitely not allowed.
"Who says it's not the case? The key point is that this person is so arrogant that he ignores even the orders of the Military and Political Department."
Zhong Bin took a sip of tea and glanced at He Shaozhou, his former classmate known as "Niece Shuai".
He only relied on the uncle who was the Minister of Military and Political Affairs to rise to the top. In terms of talent... He Shaozhou and He Shaozhou were no match for him.
Zhong Bin had his own way of dealing with this unprofitable guy, Zhong Bin, who pretended to be sad, looked up to the sky and sighed as if he was resigned to his fate: "Oh... I can't do anything about him, forget it, who told him to be tough in the background? .but…"
Zhong Bin paused for a moment and continued speaking as usual: "This Sichuan Army Corps is really enviable. The weapons and equipment of this regiment are actually better than my division."
"I know that his reinforced regiment is well-equipped, but it's not as good as a division."
Commander He looked at Zhong Bin with a surprised and puzzled expression. He had just arrived in western Yunnan not long ago and did not know much about some basic conditions. Although he knew that many beautiful weapons were sent to the Sichuan Army, he did not think it would be so exaggerated. Bar.
"As far as I know, the Sichuan Corps has more than 400 light and heavy machine guns alone, more than 90 mortars of various types, and a heavy artillery battalion. It is not an exaggeration to call it a heavy artillery regiment, with a total of 21 cannons of 105 caliber or above. There are countless submachine guns, and the rifles are all semi-automatic and beautiful equipment. Can you believe that these are all in a small reinforced group?"
"How is that possible!? Where did he get all this equipment? Can the logistics keep up? Why didn't I hear anything from the Military and Political Department?"
Commander He was shocked. His eyes widened in disbelief and he asked several questions in succession.
Some time ago, he had indeed heard reports from people below that large quantities of ammunition and equipment were often sent to the front line. However, the transportation group had a green bar from above and had an unimpeded path, and the transportation process was quite strict. There was no mystery at all from the outside.
Except for one time when he was seen transporting heavy artillery, that is, the time when his subordinates tried to seize the equipment, but in the end they were warned by his own uncle. After that, he never paid attention to the supplies of the Sichuan Army. Unexpectedly, such abundant supplies were transported under his nose.
"I don't know about this, but brother, you should know better than me about this kind of thing. Those materials are only transported to the front line through your transit."
Zhong Bin said nonchalantly, but he was secretly proud and continued to add fuel to the fire, because some people began to take the bait: "Otherwise, he would dare to challenge the Takeuchi Regiment with just one regiment? Which domestic army can achieve this weapon ratio? ? It’s more than enough to equip a division.”
"But that guy basically spent all his money in the battle of Nantianmen. It stands to reason that new supplies will be sent to his troops soon. I just don't know where these equipments come from. It's impossible for the Military and Political Department to be so generous. ah."
Zhong Bin's words made Commander He fall into deep thought. He listened quietly without saying a word. He picked up a cigar and struck a match to lightly toast it, thinking quickly about the information in his mind.
Fine weapons were in short supply, and those Americans were very smart and refused to give them more, because there were not many supplies shipped through the Hump Line, and except for the frontline troops stationed in India, few were equipped with fine weapons.
And even if you have a small amount of beautiful weapons, they will be reserved for the elites of the army. How can you dare to play around? Who can bear the terrifying logistics requirements? No one is as wasteful as the Sichuan Army.
"I'm sure these equipment were not allocated by the Ministry of Military and Political Affairs. That Liao Mingyu definitely has an extraordinary way, but how come he didn't leave any clues?" Commander He lit his cigar and puffed out smoke while talking to himself. Talking.
"Maybe he has some special channels to get support from the Yankees, but the top executive may not be aware of this, otherwise the equipment would have been his turn? Are you right?"
Zhong Bin sneered and told the key to the problem. He threw out the bait step by step, not believing that this old classmate who was obsessed with making money could still hold on.
It would be a lie to say that he is not jealous. Commander He's 8th Army is a newly reorganized new army. The three divisions under his command suffered relatively heavy losses in previous battles. They are still recovering slowly. He also relies on that It was only with the support of the minister's uncle that he got a lucrative job in the Dali Military Supplies and Defense Force.
Although he did not dare to embezzle arms blatantly, he did a lot of secret embezzling, and many supplies were used to equip his troops.
Even some troop commanders who knew the inside story were afraid of the great god behind them and did not dare to offend him. In order to get the supplies, they chose to give benefits to settle the matter. Commander He even made a lot of money by relying on his position.
"Haha, that's interesting."
Sure enough, after listening to Zhong Bin's words, Commander He showed a strong interest. The benefits and risks coexisted. So what if he, Liao Mingyu, had a backer? It was best to find an excuse to get rid of such unidentified supplies.
Besides, it would be a shame to not eat such a big meal that is served to your mouth, He Shaozhou thought silently as he squinted his eyes.
Liao Mingyu had no way of knowing about all this. The system being upgraded was still in a closed state and could not provide effective intervention or warning. A conspiracy against him was quietly brewing...
A few days later, the group army headquarters in the direction of Baoshan sent a telegram to the Sichuan Army Corps. Three supplementary regiments from Panzhihua had arrived in Baoshan.
Commander Song wanted Liao Mingyu to go there in person and explain some things to him face to face. At the same time, he also wanted to meet this extremely outstanding frontline commander.
Liao Mingyu had no choice but to refuse. After all, Commander Song had done him a favor. It would be nice to go see him and thank him. He also wanted to see the style of General Eagle Dog.
"I'm sorry, let the guard battalion assemble a company and follow me to Baoshan."
Because the distance was relatively long and there were many mountain roads along the way, Liao Mingyu decided to take some troops with him for safety reasons.
"Leader, do you think Commander Song will give you a promotion this time?"
Meng Fanglia seemed to be very concerned about this matter. Liao Mingyu was the backbone of the entire Sichuan Army Corps, and the achievements of the brothers who came out of the shelter all depended on his support.
It can be said that life will be better only if the leader is better than them. If Liao Mingyu is gone, they will be washed away in this vast ocean in an instant, and no one will care about their existence.
"Okay, okay, there are really three words that cannot be separated from getting promoted."
Liao Mingyu rolled his eyes at him angrily, raised his hand and saw that it was already past 10 o'clock. He had to leave quickly to see if he could go back quickly, so he said seriously: "Just tell Staff Officer Fang and the others, and the troops will be handed over to you. Watch out. Wait for me to come home."
