At about one o'clock in the morning, a group of tightly packed convoys arrived at the artillery camp 10 kilometers away from Yangon. It was difficult to see what was packed in the dark night.
The convoy drove straight into the camp and stopped in the open space of the loading and unloading area with a clang. The surrounding searchlights had long illuminated the open space like daylight. The soldiers on the car immediately got out of the car and began to move the goods on the car.
Different from the turquoise military uniforms and M35 steel helmets of the expeditionary force, they wore gray and black military uniforms and mountain hats. Their hands and feet moved quickly. No one whispered during the whole process, and there was a trace of anger on their expressionless faces.
The array of trucks at the end of the team was even more amazing. The soldiers immediately opened the cordon after getting off the vehicles, and then a team wearing protective clothing began to unload the trucks.
】
The surrounding heavy artillery brigade soldiers still didn't know what was being transported this time. Looking at the other party's cautious look, they were extremely curious in their hearts.
Li Liansheng and Krupp, who had been waiting for a long time, rushed up to meet them and found the leader of the team who was directing the soldiers:
"Oh, Director Yu personally came to escort you. Thank you for your hard work. Come to the back room and invite me. I've prepared the tea. Let your men rest and leave it to us."
Yu Sifan frowned slightly. He was not surprised when he saw the person coming, but he was a little surprised by the other person's attitude. He pointed to the row of 92 infantry guns in front and said:
"No, military affairs are important. Things behind are more dangerous. Let my people handle it. You just need to help carry these artillery."
"Yes, yes, military affairs are important. Military affairs are important. Who is here? Find someone to help Director Yu unload these infantry cannons. Move quickly!"
Li Liansheng quickly made arrangements, and his flattering look left Krupp standing next to him speechless. When did this old guy start to become so polite?
"There are a total of eighteen 92-inch infantry artillery pieces and 4 tons of special ammunition here. Brigadier Li, please sign for them. Let your men deploy these artillery pieces as soon as possible while the night is dark. They will cooperate with the artillery operations. I still have something to do over there. Just stay longer.”
Yu Sifan handed over the folder in a leisurely manner.
"Okay, Director Yu, you're welcome. If you have anything to do, just ask us. We'll follow your arrangements." Li Liansheng quickly signed the document and handed it to the other party.
Yu Sifan licked his lips, feeling embarrassed and confused. He didn't know why the commander of the heavy artillery brigade had such an attitude. Instead, it made him a little embarrassed, so he should leave quickly.
"Director Yu, please walk slowly. If you have anything to say, please speak up." Looking at Yu Sifan leaving in a carefree manner, he continued to flatter and smile.
"Li Wula, do you owe him money?"
Krupp picked his ears and expressed his confusion. The other party was just a lieutenant colonel and he was not familiar with him. Why was he so arrogant? Even when facing Long Wenwen, he had never seen him so humble.
"I owe you two slaps, you know nothing!" Li Liansheng immediately changed his face and cursed angrily.
Although Yu Sifan's military rank and position are not high, his voice is not low. Li Liansheng knows that he is Jun Zuo's confidant and is in charge of the intelligence department and the secret service camp. I heard that he even handed over the military police to him, which shows how powerful he is. Be reused.
These people who engage in political work have always been very small-minded, so they must not leave a good impression. If they are not careful, they may offend others without even knowing it. Don't make it difficult for them to do it behind your back.
The emperor's close ministers are the worst to offend. Li Liansheng, who has been in the army for so many years, knows this truth well.
"Don't fucking idle here. You are familiar with the 92nd Infantry Artillery. I'll leave this matter to you. Set up your position before sunrise."
The range of the 92 Infantry Artillery is only two to three kilometers, and it must be as close to the target as possible. It can only operate at night with the help of night cover, otherwise it will be easily discovered by enemy observation posts during the day.
Once exposed, the naval guns on the sea will explode. It doesn't matter if you lose this artillery, but you can't make any mistakes with the several tons of poison gas bombs, otherwise you will be the unlucky one.
"This cannon is not easy to use at all. It's boring. I won't go."
Unexpectedly, Krupp said such words carelessly, which immediately made Li Liansheng very angry.
"You little bastard! It's exciting to visit the brothel, are you going? The food is so good, isn't it? Look how fat you are!"
After seeing that the people from the secret service camp had gone away, he immediately pointed at someone's nose and yelled, completely different from the nodding and bowing look just now.
Although the 92 infantry gun is not difficult to operate, its range and shooting angle are different from existing howitzers. It requires veterans who are familiar with this gun to operate it. Those recruits who have only touched M2 and M114 after coming out of the training camp must be no.
The most important thing is that this mission is not trivial, and he must find an experienced person to take the lead. He is worried about the officers under his command. Although Krupp is usually ignorant, he is still very professional in this regard.
It's just that Krupp is a tough guy, and no matter how sharp the verbal attack is, it won't hurt him.
Seeing that the other party had no reaction, Li Liansheng rolled his eyes and immediately used his big move: "Damn Fatty, I know the warehouse where you secretly hide the canned luncheon meat. You can just turn a blind eye to it, but believe it or not." I’ll find someone to promote you directly!”
Since the establishment of the Heihe base, the food supply in the army has become more diverse, but during wartime it is still mainly individual soldier rations produced by the base.
Each person received three portions per day, which contained ready-to-eat foods such as salted biscuits, sugar, canned meat, and loose cigarettes.
Although the taste and variety are not as good as the extremely luxurious individual soldier rations from the United States, it is more than enough to fill their stomachs, at least it is much better than what they have eaten before.
Especially the canned luncheon meat. This is not the unpalatable luncheon meat modified by the Americans later by adding more salt and starch. It is a canned luncheon meat produced at the base with a normal ratio of meat to starch. For most soldiers who have never eaten meat for half their lives, To put it simply, this is fine food.
It’s a pity that each person can only receive one can per day, and it has to be eaten with saltine biscuits. However, this special biscuit can be soaked in water and eaten. Just add some water and it can become like oatmeal or mashed potatoes, which will satisfy hunger and fight hunger. The effects of hunger are very good.
But for a fat man who weighs more than 200 pounds and is either eating and having sex or on the way to eat and have sex, this little food is obviously not enough.
This greedy guy took advantage of his position and often took more. He even asked the guards below to build a small warehouse for him, and he used a truck pulling artillery to carry it wherever he went. It was full of all kinds of food. of drink.
Perhaps this is Krupp's only weakness, because behavior like his is definitely not allowed in the army.
So when he heard Li Liansheng's words, he was scared. He wanted to get angry but didn't know where to start. He could only puff up his cheeks and stare at the other person with wide eyes.
"It's no use staring at me. Have you forgotten what Jun Zuo said yesterday? This matter is not trivial. If it is messed up, let alone your granary, even our lives will not be saved!"
To be honest, Li Liansheng still felt a little guilty when being stared at by a tall man who was about 1.8 meters tall. However, his long-term relationship had made him understand Krupp's temper. Although he sometimes made mistakes, this guy still understood the big issues. of.
"Don't even think about it. If this mission is completed, it will be a great achievement. Then I will personally ask you for credit. Maybe Jun Zuo can reward us with a few rocket launchers."
As expected, when the fat man heard this, his eyes immediately lit up and he became excited.
"Okay, I'll go now, but you really have to go talk to Jun Zuo and get some rocket launchers, okay?"
I have long heard that the New Army's rocket artillery unit is very powerful. If we can get a group of heavy artillery brigades to form a rocket artillery regiment, it will really make me laugh out of my dreams.
