"Ouch!!!!"
After teasing, Political Commissar Wang, who grabbed the list handed over by Zhang Pingan, lowered his head and couldn't help but express surprise. Then he glanced at Zhang Pingan and said, "It seems that we are going to bleed heavily this time, otherwise we will be sorry for this kid Pingan." What a great gift!”
As soon as Political Commissar Wang said these words, other leaders suddenly became interested, including Brigadier Chen. Everyone just laughed and didn't think much about it. Moreover, the leaders also understood Zhang Pingan. It was already rare for him to have such a heart. There are some good things, so everyone didn’t value these things at first, but they had already thought about it. If some of Zhang Pingan’s demands were not excessive, everyone would be willing to support them. After all, Zhang Pingan came out of their 386 brigade. They are Zhang Pingan's natal family, and they want to make Zhang Pingan prosperous in his new workplace.
Feeling the attention of everyone, Political Commissar Wang cleared his throat and said: "There are three big fat pigs, each weighing more than three hundred kilograms, that is more than a thousand kilograms of fat pork. If we live frugally, it will be enough for all the commanders and soldiers of our brigade. After eating for a long time, we don’t have to worry about the soldiers being short of fuel and water, this is a good thing!”
Hearing these words from Political Commissar Wang, the leaders were stunned for a moment, and then took a gulp of water. Including Brigadier Chen, who is not greedy for meat?
Political Commissar Wang took in the expressions of everyone in his eyes, and he raised the corner of his mouth slightly and continued: "Twenty thousand French currency, 2 Type 92 infantry cannons, 2 Taisho 11 type 70mm direct fire cannons, 80 rounds of 70mm infantry artillery shells, 150 rounds of 70mm direct-fire artillery shells." At this point, Political Commissar Wang stopped talking again and gave everyone a chance to buffer.
"Ouch!! Good guy, four cannons?!!"
"Ping An, you are too generous with your actions, four artillery pieces?!"
"Don't just look at the four artillery pieces, there are also 20,000 French currency!"
"..."
Sure enough, after Political Commissar Wang finished speaking, the leaders of the brigade could no longer calm down. If three fat pigs weighing about 300 kilograms were an appetizer, then as soon as the main table came up, everyone couldn't hold their nerve anymore.
"Ping'an, where did you get so many good things?" After the other brigade leaders finished speaking, Brigadier Chen couldn't help but looked at Zhang Ping'an in surprise and asked.
"hey-hey!"
Hearing the brigade commander's inquiry, Zhang Ping'an chuckled and said: "The two Type 92 infantry cannons were captured in the last battle at Baijiawa. As for the other two small steel cannons and French currency, they were captured at Guojia'ao. "." The leaders also knew about the battle at Guojia'ao and had already discussed it.
"Tsk tsk!!!"
After hearing Zhang Ping'an's explanation, the leaders couldn't help but start speechless.
"Originally, I was thinking about what kind of treasure your boy could have, but it seems that I was wrong!" Deputy Brigadier Chen, who was sitting aside, sighed: "I'm starting to worry now. It seems that Lao Wang hasn't finished reading yet. You This guy is so generous, we feel like this thing is a bit hot to handle!"
As soon as Deputy Brigadier Chen's words came out, everyone laughed, because Deputy Brigadier Chen's words were still a joke, and they were 30% true and 70% false.
"hey-hey!"
Zhang Ping'an didn't answer when he heard this, because Deputy Brigadier Chen guessed correctly.
Nonsense, the initial gift he gave to the brigade leaders was five heavy machine guns and two Type 92 infantry cannons without shells. But now, in addition to these, a lot has been added. Zhang Pingan's doing this shows that his ambition is not small.
"Old Wang, please continue reading!"
Brigadier Chen didn't take it to heart. In his opinion, no matter how much Zhang Pingan, a county captain, asked for, how could he, a brigade commander, not be satisfied? Even if there are some things that can't be solved, aren't there still superior leaders? With such subordinates, it would be honorable for him to go to the leaders to ask for help.
"hehe!"
Political Commissar Wang chuckled upon hearing this, grabbed the list and continued: "Five Maxim heavy machine guns, 20 sets of high-precision military maps of southeastern Shanxi, 10 Japanese telescopes, 20 20-ring shell guns, and 1 major command knife." At this point, Political Commissar Wang smiled and said, "This is the list of all Ping An's greeting gifts."
When they were originally surprised that Zhang Ping'an's main banquet was very generous, the leaders discovered that the desserts after the meal were equally generous.
"Good guy, five Maxim heavy machine guns are as good as those four artillery pieces!"
"Telescopes are also a good thing!"
"Military map? High-precision? Does it belong to a kid?"
"If it's a military map made by a kid, it would be a great thing!!!"
"..."
The leaders focused their attention on heavy machine guns and military maps, but rarely mentioned the major's command knife or the shell gun.
"Ping'an, have you seen the map?" Other leaders discussed, but Chief of Staff Li had a clear goal and looked at Zhang Ping'an directly with expectation.
Zhang Pingan is his soldier, and he believes in Zhang Pingan's professional ability, so Zhang Pingan can determine whether these 20 sets of high-precision military maps of southeastern Shanxi are good or not.
"Chief of Staff, it's better than the kid's!"
Hearing Chief of Staff Li's inquiry, Zhang Pingan answered directly without any hesitation: "Although I don't know how the little devil obtained these maps, I checked them after getting them. They are only higher than the little devil's combat maps." , the most important thing is our Chinese characters.”
"good!!!"
When Chief of Staff Li heard Zhang Pingan's answer, the expectation on his face was replaced by joy and excitement. Naturally, he would not doubt Zhang Pingan, so after he shouted "Hello", he said: "Where is the map? Where did it go? Get it quickly. Come here, let us take a look?"
"Yes, yes!" After Chief of Staff Li finished speaking, Deputy Brigadier Chen couldn't sit still and said quickly: "Let's take a look quickly. The combat map given by the World War II zone and the government is really a headache. !”
Whether it is Chief of Staff Li or the leaders present, they know very well how much a high-precision combat map can help them and how much their workload can be reduced.
"Chief of Staff, ask someone to find my No. 1 Squadron Leader. As soon as you talk to him about the map, he will know what's going on!" Zhang Pingan said hurriedly after hearing this.
"Xiao Wang!"
Upon hearing this, Staff Officer Li immediately said to a combat staff officer not far away: "Immediately find the person who was brought by Ping An and get the combat map back."
Upon hearing this, Combat Staff Officer Wang saluted: "Yes, Chief of Staff!" After saying that, he was about to leave.
Zhang Pingan spoke, looked at the political commissar and brigade commander, and said, "Brigadier commander, political commissar, why don't we let our logistics officers go there together and pull all these supplies back."
When the political commissar and brigade commander heard Zhang Ping'an's proposal, they thought for a moment and agreed. The political commissar then said to Xiao Wang, the operational staff officer: "Xiao Wang, go find Director Chen who is in charge of logistics and ask him to take the people there with you. , bring back all the supplies on this list." As he spoke, Political Commissar Wang handed the list to Xiao Wang.
"Yes, political commissar!"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Wang saluted again, then turned and left.
After such an interruption, the leaders were no longer so anxious.
"Ping'an, tell us the truth, how much was seized in Guojia'ao?" At this moment, Brigadier Chen suddenly thought of something, turned to look at Zhang Ping'an, and asked with a smile.
As soon as Brigadier Chen's question came out, the leaders all responded. Since Zhang Ping'an came to the brigade headquarters, everyone has asked a lot, and they also know that he won forty against two hundred, but no one knows the specific capture. Especially everyone can see that the team that came with Zhang Ping'an was not short. There were more than forty large trucks, and every large truck was full.
"Oh, it's true. If Lao Chen hadn't told me, I would have forgotten about it. After seeing it, I was still curious about how much material was seized!"
"hey-hey!"
Hearing Brigadier Chen's inquiry, Zhang Ping'an felt tense and secretly said: "We're finally here!" But he didn't show any signs of it on his face.
Yes, Zhang Ping'an has been weakening the seizure situation in Guojia'ao. The reason is self-evident, that is, he made a fortune in Guojia'ao! But in the end, he couldn't escape Brigadier Chen's keen eyes and was noticed.
"well!"
He sighed in his heart. Since he couldn't hide it, he wouldn't hide it either. Zhang Ping'an showed an implicit and somewhat reserved smile on his face and said, "I made a little fortune and seized more than 1,200 rifles of various types." , 137 pistols of various types, 15 light and heavy machine guns, 12 grenades, 6 mortars, 2 small steel cannons, 230,000 rounds of various bullets, 2,600 various artillery shells, grenades, and cantaloupe grenades 100 boxes of these.”
"In addition to weapons and equipment, about 30,000 kilograms of flour, rice, corn and other grains were also seized, more than 16,000 yuan, 33,000 legal currency, 26 small yellow croakers, gold beans, gold leaves, etc., about About half a catty. The remaining supplies are small, such as telescopes, combat maps, and two radio stations." At this point, Zhang Pingan paused for a moment, as if thinking of something, and said: "By the way, some of them are big There were also a lot of ashes of little Japs in the car, and I just dumped them." After saying that, he spread his hands to the leaders and said with a reserved smile: "No more, these are the rewards."
During the Battle of Guojia'ao, in addition to the rewards from the system, the batch of materials escorted by the little devils themselves was also very generous. In addition to the two 70mm direct-fire cannons, they also found 4 82mm mortars, as well as 70,000 to 80,000 yuan. Fire bullets of different calibers. In addition to these, 30,000 kilograms of grain, oceans, gold, etc., especially those two radio stations. Different from the small radio stations last time, these two radio stations are truly large radio stations this time.
Originally, Zhang Ping'an was still thinking about giving one to the brigade headquarters, but after much deliberation he decided not to do it. He knew very well the importance of communication, and it was difficult to seize it.
Sure enough, as soon as Zhang Ping'an said these words, the leaders couldn't hold back.
“Holy shit!!!”
"Is this a lot? Is this the amount of supplies that more than two hundred little devils can bring?"
"I suddenly feel that the seizures we made in the battle in Changle Village are not as much as what Ping An made by killing these 200 little Japs in Guojia'ao!"
"..."
The leaders were talking to each other with great joy. Everyone had the same attitude, and they were all frightened by this exaggerated seizure.
"Zhang Pingan, Zhang Pingan!"
After sighing, Brigadier Chen looked at Zhang Ping'an and said: "To be honest, I regret it a little now. The impression you gave me before was that of a combat staff officer with a very beautiful work on the picture, but now I find that you He is a blessed general!"
"I don't know what was captured in the Baijiawa battle, but just from the Guojia'ao battle, we can see that your boy is a truly blessed general!"
"Now that we have obtained more than a thousand rifles, what your county brigade lacks now is people, and there is no shortage of weapons and equipment. As long as the cadres are in place, we can directly bypass the county brigade and be directly upgraded to the Quanyang County Guard Regiment." At this point, Brigadier Chen's eyes flickered, and he was obviously thinking.
"Brigadier, it's not as exaggerated as you said!"
Upon hearing this, Zhang Ping'an quickly waved his hands and said: "We do not lack weapons and equipment, but the county brigade is also responsible for the establishment of district squads and militia forces."
"In this battle, the county brigade and three district squads in Quanyang County were disabled, and the militia troops also suffered heavy losses. In addition to keeping these weapons and equipment from the county brigade, I also want to give the rest to the three newly built district squads. Be prepared, and all village and soldier teams must also provide support.”
"It seems like there are a lot of weapons and equipment, but in fact there are not many. Moreover, due to lack of strength in the past, only three of the six or seven district-level governments under Quanyang County have established district teams. In the future, we will also help other local governments that have not established district teams. Form their district squad.”
When he said this, Zhang Ping'an showed a hint of helplessness and said: "Brigadier Commander, I suddenly found that serving as a company commander or battalion commander in the main force is much easier than serving as a county captain in the local area. In our army You don’t have to think so much at all, and there are not so many tasks and work. You only need to complete the higher-level tasks and manage the training and operations of the troops.”
"Pfft, ah ha ha ha!!!"
Everyone who was listening to Zhang Pingan's words attentively couldn't help laughing when they heard Zhang Pingan's last words.
"Don't tell me, Ping An was born to do this. This is his second day as county captain, and he can think of so much." After laughing, Political Commissar Wang looked at Zhang Ping An with admiration and said with a smile. "Originally, I was worried about whether he was qualified to be the county captain, but now I realize that I was worrying too much. This guy is very careful, and he takes one step at a time and sees the next."
Listening to Political Commissar Wang's praise, Brigadier Chen also smiled and said: "Yes, this kid really has a big picture view and can look at problems from a higher level. To be honest, I regret letting this kid go. , I feel like I will regret it for the rest of my life." When he said this, Brigadier Chen seemed to be smiling, but there was also a hint of solemnity in his words.
No, after saying that, Brigadier Chen no longer hesitated and looked directly at Zhang Ping'an and said: "Ping'an, let me ask you a question. Now you can gain experience in the county brigade. When our brigade needs you in the future, you can come back. Is that so?" Brigadier Chen, who was so talented, still couldn't help but ask.
"Brigadier, I'm back!"
After hearing Brigadier Chen's words, Zhang Pingan replied without hesitation.
The reason why Zhang Pingan chose the county brigade is because the relaxed environment of the local army is the most suitable for his growth and can maximize the power of the system.
When he grows up and the army grows to tens of thousands, the environment that the local area can provide will already constrain him, so it will be natural for him to return to the main force.
Zhang Ping'an did not have a complete and clear plan for his future development, but he still had a rough plan, so when he heard Brigadier Chen's inquiry, he answered without hesitation.
"good!!"
Hearing Zhang Ping'an's answer, Brigadier Chen was very satisfied. He shouted "Hello" and said: "Then we have agreed that you will practice in the local army first. When I think the time is right, then you will Be prepared to return to the main force at any time.”
After saying that, Brigadier Chen did not give Zhang Ping'an a chance to speak. He continued: "You also have a conscience and know that you will not be empty-handed when you return to your parents' home, and your parents' home needs all these things, so tell me about your difficulties, as long as we can solve them , I will definitely solve it for you."
Hearing Brigadier Chen's words, Zhang Ping'an couldn't help but a touch of surprise appeared on his face. He came to the brigade headquarters this time and paid so much. Why? Aren't you just waiting for this sentence?
Now that the brigade commander has relented, it means that other leaders have no objections, so Zhang Pingan is not polite. There are not many opportunities like this. If he doesn't seize it, he will be a fool.
"Thank you, brigade commander, political commissar, deputy brigade commander, chief of staff, and all the leaders." Zhang Ping'an immediately stood up excitedly and saluted the leaders.
Then, with the smiles of the leaders, he took out the questions he had prepared and handed them to Political Commissar Wang beside him.
Political Commissar Wang skillfully took it from Zhang Pingan's hand. He lowered his head and glanced down. The next moment his hands froze. Then he raised his head and looked Zhang Pingan up and down. After pondering for a while, he said: "Oh! What a good guy. , Ping An is so welcome, you kid is opening your mouth like a lion!"
