After finalizing the deal with the Ministry of Military Affairs, Wang Yue realized that he had been hasty. He cried and sold a lot, but not all of them were sold. Originally, he wanted to give more to General Chen, but when he saw that the other party He couldn't hide the ecstasy, but he still held back, because he was afraid that he had taken a huge advantage in the eyes of others. If he gave away too much, it would be difficult to do business later.
Seeing General Chen leave happily, Li Yunlong was already extremely aggrieved. He had sold more than a hundred divisions' equipment at one time, and it was done so easily. It was still in front of his own eyes. Don't mention his envy. It's a pity that it's not for him, but the problem is that he doesn't seem to be in short supply of these things. If so, alas, he doesn't want them anymore.
Seeing Li Yunlong's hesitant and envious expression, Wang Yue didn't understand what this guy was really thinking. He immediately promised to get Li Yunlong twenty training aircraft and twenty P-39 fighter jets to protect the sky of Qijiang County. Although Li Yunlong can now cover the entire county with a smoke screen, the truly effective air defense means are only some anti-aircraft machine guns, and due to the lack of tracer bullets, the shooting effect of the anti-aircraft machine guns is not very good. The Japanese have sent reconnaissance planes here several times recently. None of them were shot down or injured. If this continues, the Japanese bombers will probably arrive.
Unsurprisingly, Master Li, who had benefited from the benefits, suddenly changed his mind. It must be Brother Wang, who can give away millions of ocean things at will. Now it’s good. His aviation troops finally don’t have to pull him every day. The gliders have been trained. Every day they have to send troops to help them pull the gliders, find the gliders, and carry the gliders. It is really troublesome. There are too many mountains in Qijiang County. Most of the time, the gliders will fall into the ravines. Carrying them out is simply a hassle. It was a nightmare. There were obviously dozens of pilots, but he had to assign more than a thousand troops to them. This had to be rotated every day, otherwise the soldiers would not be able to bear it at all.
As for the fact that the Eighth Route Army Headquarters will help Mr. Li pay the money in the end, he has already ignored it. What does that have to do with me? As long as the equipment belongs to you, that's fine. Speaking of which, what Brother Wang said about salvaging treasures has never been followed up. Didn't he ask us, Old Li, to help salvage Zhang Xianzhong's heavy silver? Lao Zhao forced himself to read "History of the Ming Dynasty" for several days just to do this, but in the end, it was all right?
Naturally, Wang Yue would not tell Li Yunlong that after the system was upgraded again, he flew a plane once and used the system to get it done in the sky. Now all the goods that can be brought back to 2023 are in Libi. He was hoarding it. As for what he couldn't take away, he put it in a cave somewhere in Qijiang County. Well, it seemed to be under the 20,000 tons of barley flour. He had already told Zhao Gang privately that he would later exchange it for gold bars. .
Originally, Wang Yue planned to use the system's heaven-defying functions to "sweep the streets" everywhere, selling weapons and equipment, and nothing could be done as quickly as this, but this incident made him understand that the system cannot be used arbitrarily and without restraint. Use the system to force your brain to perform high-speed calculations, and you won't know when you will die.
It seems that there are still many areas that need to be explored in this system, but think about it, if you can really do that, why fight a war of resistance? I will give you all the weapons and ammunition of the Japanese if you have nothing to do, and then the Chinese army will attack Isn’t it over? If we really play like that, the Japanese might not be able to hold on until the Pacific War breaks out, right?
After nightfall, Wang Yue took Chen Zhigang to Jin Province. He didn't sleep at night before, but after this incident, he became more well-behaved and rested for a while every day to adjust his body, otherwise he would really Worried that the body would collapse, he was really frightened this time.
Two hours later, Wang Yue met the deputy commander-in-chief and his party in the ruins of Li County. He had to admire the tenacity of the Eighth Route Army. The city that had been reduced to ruins by the Japanese army had begun to be cleaned up. A large number of bricks and stones were carefully collected and restored. Concentrated everywhere, even at night, there were many transport teams going to and from Li County, bringing a large amount of building materials. It was obvious that the Eighth Route Army was holding its breath and wanted to mobilize its forces to rebuild Li County.
The headquarters of the Eighth Route Army is located in the Guandi Temple at the base of the city wall. It is hard to imagine that the generals of the Eighth Route Army who had just won a dazzling victory were nestled in this dilapidated small temple, and saw the deputy commander-in-chief. At that time, the deputy commander-in-chief was drinking a bowl of polenta like everyone else, the kind of polenta made by simply crushing corn kernels and cooking it. The meal was served with a canned chicken rack.
For the deputy commander and others, this was already a very good dinner, but Wang Yue couldn't help but be touched after seeing it. The Eighth Route Army must not be short of food now. In addition to the previous food and canned food, he Last time alone, 30 million military rations were sent to the Eighth Route Army, but even if there were better options, the old-timers would happily eat such a dinner, just like all soldiers.
After chatting with the deputy commander-in-chief, I learned that after the Battle of Peking, the Eighth Route Army headquarters left almost all materials and supplies to the troops of the 120th and 115th Divisions. Even the large amount of weapons and materials seized in Peiping were mostly used by Hebei and The Eighth Route Army in Shandong and other places brought them back, but the 129th Division only left one million D meals for the wounded, which ordinary officers and soldiers would definitely not be able to eat.
Well, this is a big flow of supplies. Before, we were trapped in the Japanese blockade and couldn't transport things out of Shanxi Province. Now it's better. In just ten days, we moved from Shanxi Province to Lu Province, and from Hebei Province. From the province to Henan Province, the weapons, equipment and material reserves of the Eighth Route Army have been greatly balanced. The life of General Shinozuka Yoshio is probably going to be difficult. The old devil is also unlucky. He used to be tortured by the Northern Route Army in Shanxi, but now I got promoted, but I still had to be tortured by the Eighth Route Army.
But this time the 129th Division of the Eighth Route Army also recruited more than 100,000 Imperial Army troops. In addition to the losses from the previous big attack, the Eighth Route Army only had a shortfall of more than 100,000 rifles, and the output of the Eighth Route Army arsenal was only a few hundred a month. , simply cannot meet the needs. As for technical weapons and ammunition, this is even more so.
After the deputy commander-in-chief's explanation, Wang Yuecai finally understood that holding on to Peking was simply a show, a show jointly performed by the Eighth Route Army and the highest authorities, with the purpose of forcing the Japanese to make concessions and obtain greater benefits.
But in fact, all the troops in Peiping did not have much ammunition. Although the Japanese army did not come to cause major damage when they retreated, they still blew up several large ammunition depots. The most powerful ammunition captured by the Eighth Route Army was only some There are only 20mm machine-gun shells, and there are only a few of them. If we really defend Beiping City, I am afraid that the defenders will have to fight with the Japanese.
As for the deputy commander-in-chief who was eager to see Wang Yue this time, on the one hand he wanted to communicate with Wang Yue about the purchase of weapons, and on the other hand he wanted to pay the huge "debt" owed by the Eighth Route Army. Wang Yue repeatedly paid the Eighth Route Army The amount of support was getting bigger and bigger, but what they asked for from them was very little. This made the Eighth Route Army very uneasy and felt a little ashamed of their friends. Only then did they immediately think of repaying the "debt" after they gained the ability. ".
This time the Eighth Route Army captured an astronomical amount of money in Beiping City. In addition to the assets of the North China Expeditionary Force and the puppet government, the Japanese, Koreans, and traitors in the city also gathered a huge amount of wealth just to take over the headquarters of the Eighth Route Army. More than 50,000 troops were mobilized and they were fighting day and night every day. In this way, a large amount of goods were still distributed to friendly forces and fraternal troops. There was no way to do it and they were too busy.
In addition to the donations from the common people and the surrenders from various troops, the Eighth Route Army headquarters immediately took out ten tons of gold, more than three hundred tons of various traditional Chinese medicine gems, and nearly 50,000 pieces of antique calligraphy and paintings to repay the five-year contract signed by the Eighth Route Army. Wang Yue was also surprised by this figure of tens of millions of ocean debts. He said that many of the things he supported for the Eighth Route Army simply did not have negotiated prices. He did not know how this number was calculated. Forget it, Quan thought it was to help the Eighth Route Army. Dispose of the loot.
Regarding the procurement needs of the Eighth Route Army, Wang Yue also fully satisfied them. They are all rich people. Don't pick and choose when buying weapons. Wang Yue simply took out a pen and ticked off the Eighth Route Army's procurement list. stand up--
7.92 mm caliber Mosin-Nagant rifle M1891 rifle, 500,000 pieces - this is a large number of modified goods obtained by Tasha. Wang Yue did not have the matching bullets in his hand, but Tasha said that he could help buy them, but they cost 0.5 US dollars each. He really couldn't afford to use the ammunition he was issued. It happened that the Eighth Route Army had the ability to reload bullets, so let it all go to the Eighth Route Army and let Zhang Wan and that guy worry about the bullets. But looking at the deputy commander's eager eyes, the problem of ammunition was The Eighth Route Army can be solved here.
3,000 Deggarev DP28 light machine guns - Wang Yue still had a lot of these, but considering that the Eighth Route Army was not short of machine guns, he gave 3,000 first to test the waters. He has a lot of 100-round ammunition trays in his hand. With this thing, he can use the Deggarev DP28 light machine gun to replace some of the heavy machine guns. This is what Li Yunlong did over there. It is said that as long as the fighting time is not long, The fire suppression effect is much better than the Japanese Type 92 heavy machine gun.
M1897 75mm field artillery, 997 pieces - General Chen purchased 1,000 pieces. Naturally, Wang Yue did not want to favor one over the other, so he directly sent a batch to the Eighth Route Army. He did not have many shells in his hand, only two thousand tons, but With the raw materials and molds supported by Wang Yue, it is not a big problem for the Eighth Route Army arsenal to make its own high-explosive bombs. Even Said's car repair shop can produce something. There is no reason why the Eighth Route Army cannot produce it. All it lacks is raw materials. That’s all.
M1937 50mm grenade launcher, 2,000 units - the Eighth Route Army's previous main infantry support weapons were grenade launchers and M35 45mm light mortars. Some were lost during this period and some were distributed to brother units, making Jin The number of such weapons in the hands of the Provincial Eighth Route Army has shrunk significantly, so Wang Yue supported them with a batch of these things. Although this thing is more complicated than a grenade, it is the same as the M35 45mm light mortar. This kind of gun It doesn't require experience. It can be used after simple training. It is better than a grenade in every aspect. As for the artillery shells, there is no need to worry at all. The Eighth Route Army's arsenal can produce them in a few days.
Panhard 178 armored reconnaissance vehicle, 842 units. After the First World War in Peking, the 129th Division only brought back a few CV-33 light tanks. Some were lost, some were sold, and some were used to support brother units. In short, except for the seed troops In addition, the armored units of the 129th Division have also been dismantled and are in urgent need of replenishment. Wang Yue took out this thing. It is light in weight, fast, low in fuel consumption, and easy to maintain. It is not very suitable for the Eighth Route Army. As for the protective power The low problem is nothing in the face of the Japanese army's poor anti-armor capabilities. In the Battle of Peking, the Eighth Route Army's CV-33 light tanks were able to kill repeatedly, let alone others.
Soma S35 tanks, 55 units. In order to prevent the Japanese from mobilizing the Kwantung Army’s armored forces, Wang Yue also equipped the Eighth Route Army with some good things. Soma S35 tanks were the top equipment of the F Army. At this time in 1940 It is almost invincible. With these dozens of tanks, even if the Japanese bring an armored division over, the Eighth Route Army can also push forward.
M1910 122mm cannon, 200 pieces. All departments of the Eighth Route Army liked this cannon very much. The Shanxi-Sui Army also wanted to buy a batch. In this case, Wang Yue simply sold more to the Eighth Route Army, and later let the Japanese gangs have a taste of heavy artillery. The taste of swarming, weapons, in many cases, advancement is only a problem, and the more important thing is quantity. As long as the quantity is sufficient, the T-34 tank can also push the Tiger and Panther tanks. 200 One M1910 122mm gun, plus 50,000 rounds of artillery shells, is enough for the Japanese to drink a pot.
After finishing this, Wang Yue couldn't wait to take Zhang Wanhe to count the belongings and supplies. It doesn't matter how much money he makes, what matters is the process of making money. Counting money until your hands cramp is always a wonderful thing.
However, the deputy commander-in-chief and deputy chief of staff looked at the list Wang Yue casually gave with bitter expressions on their faces. They had just paid back 50 million oceans, and now they owed another 140 million oceans. That's all. Not counting the 80,000 tons of barley flour Wang Yue gave away at will, this favor may not be repaid.
Some people died, but not completely...
