"A lot of good things have happened recently!"
At the brigade headquarters, after the chief of staff made a phone call to the headquarters and reported the situation in the prisoner-of-war camp in Liao County, he suddenly thought of all kinds of strange things recently.
Ding Wei of the new regiment obtained a batch of imported 79 bullets. The quantity was so large that he was even rich. After keeping a batch for himself, he could also send 150,000 rounds to the brigade headquarters.
It was enough for the whole brigade to fight a fierce battle.
Moreover, this batch of bullets is of extremely high quality, and the shells can be collected and reloaded in the headquarters arsenal, which can reduce the workload.
Cheng Shifa of the 772nd Regiment also obtained a batch of Czech and 79 bombs.
Although not as many as Ding Wei, there are still 20,000 rounds, enough for the 772nd Regiment to fight a fierce battle.
Good thing!
All good things!
"Report."
At this time, a soldier on duty from the security company came in and reported:
"The captain of the Liao County brigade sent someone here."
"He also brought a team of mules and horses with him."
"Xu Huzhi?"
"And bring a mule and horse transport team?"
The chief of staff of the brigade was stunned at first, and then he was overjoyed:
"What kind of supplies did this kid seize?"
The Liao County County Brigade is a county brigade formed in the first batch of the army. It is directly commanded by the 386th Brigade. In fact, it is equivalent to a basic regiment, but its scale and weapons and equipment are insufficient.
If this county brigade develops further, a new fifth or sixth regiment number will be given in the future.
Xu Huzhi will also become the group leader.
After all, Xu Huzhi has the ability to serve as a group leader, although he is a little worse than Kong Jie and others.
Currently, the main task of the Liao County Brigade is to develop the mass base in the Japs-occupied areas, help the people avoid the Japs' raids and rob supplies, and crack down on traitors.
They would also occasionally attack Japanese transport teams and seize some supplies.
Or cooperate with the main force to fight.
"Captain Wu."
The brigade chief of staff went out to assist.
It was discovered that the person responsible for transporting supplies was Wu Wenkai, the deputy captain of the Liao County County Brigade.
"Report to the Chief of Staff!"
Wu Wenkai also came from the brigade headquarters and was an old acquaintance with the brigade chief of staff. He got straight to the point:
"This time, our county brigade obtained a batch of weapons and ammunition."
"Weapons and ammunition?!"
The chief of staff's eyes lit up.
The Liao County County Brigade itself lacks weapons and ammunition. If there are any seized weapons and ammunition, they must keep them for themselves. Now that they can hand over the excess seized weapons and ammunition to the brigade headquarters, it shows that the number of weapons and ammunition obtained this time is very large.
and,
In the current situation, the Japanese blockade is gradually intensifying. More and more strongholds and roads are encroaching on guerrilla areas and even base areas, turning guerrilla areas and base areas into enemy-occupied areas.
The 386th Brigade really needs a lot of weapons and ammunition in the near future, the more the better, in order to prepare for the inevitable counterattack and break the Japanese blockade.
This is a more urgently needed material than food.
If the food is short, we can survive, but if the weapons and ammunition are gone, we can only fight with the Japanese with bayonets.
The little devil is not stupid. He can solve problems with guns, but he will not foolishly fight with the Eighth Route Army with bayonets and increase casualties in vain.
"How many were seized?"
the brigade chief of staff asked curiously.
"Eight Czech-style guns, with sixteen barrels, eighty spare firing pins and other parts."
"Twenty-nine thousand rounds of seven-nine-point bullets."
"Eighty twenty-shot rifles with several parts."
"Ninety-five hundred rounds of shelled ammunition."
"There are also 1,600 German-made hand grenades."
Wu Wenkai reported the number of weapons and ammunition.
"so much!"
The chief of staff almost bit his tongue.
There are more than 100,000 rounds of bullets and nearly 100 guns!
Can a county brigade do this?
The brigade headquarters does not have the ability to obtain so many weapons and ammunition.
Without the batch of ammunition handed over by Ding Wei, the brigade headquarters and even the whole family would not be so wealthy.
"How did you get it?"
The chief of staff couldn't help but ask.
Your Liao County brigade has a total strength of only more than 150, and most of them are intelligence personnel. The number of people with combat effectiveness is only fifty or sixty at most.
It’s equivalent to an enhanced platoon!
How did you get so many weapons and ammunition?
Even if you are unlucky enough to enter the Japanese military warehouse, the Japs don’t have so many twenty-shot rifles, and they will capture the seventy-nine-point bullets for you!
"have no idea."
Wu Wenkai shook his head and followed Xu Huzhi's order, determined not to say where the weapons and ammunition were obtained:
"The captain did this."
"I don't know, he didn't tell me."
"this···"
This familiar smell made the brigade chief of staff stunned.
Ding Wei is like this,
Cheng Shifa is like this,
Now it's Xu Huzhi's turn.
Each and every one of those who made a fortune, you say, hid them. Except for Cheng Shifa, all the others were handed over to the brigade headquarters, and a lot of them were handed over, including more than 100,000 rounds of ammunition.
Why don't you hide it? Don't tell anyone where the weapons and ammunition come from.
"correct."
Suppressing the doubts in his heart, the brigade chief of staff asked:
"According to intelligence, the prisoner-of-war camp in Liao County was raided. Do you know who did it?"
"have no idea."
Wu Wenkai shook his head:
"The captain should know, but he hasn't told me yet. I was busy counting and transporting the ammunition and didn't pay attention to other things."
This is actually true.
Considering the confidentiality, Wu Kaiwen really didn't know who attacked the Liao County prisoner of war camp. He only knew that it was a unit of the Eighth Route Army, but he didn't know which unit.
So, he didn't lie either!
"Inform Xu Huzhi after we return, and inform me directly of any news about the prisoner-of-war camp in Liao County."
The chief of staff always felt something was wrong, but he didn't know what was wrong.
"yes."
Wu Wenkai replied.
Suppressing the weird feeling in his heart, the brigade chief of staff began to make arrangements to receive the supplies.
Soon, the huge amount of ammunition made him completely forget about the strange feeling in his heart, and he became ecstatic.
Including this batch of ammunition, excluding the ammunition reserves of the two main numbered regiments, the 772nd and 773rd regiments, the brigade headquarters' own ammunition reserves alone now total nearly 300,000 rounds.
Among them, there are 15,000 rounds of 79 round-nose bullets, 190,000 rounds of pointed-nose bullets, and 95,000 rounds of shelled bullets.
Except for the lack of round-nose bullets, this gun was made in Hanyang in the last century. Due to design problems, it can only fire round-nose bullets, not sharp-nose bullets. There are plenty of other bullets.
Moreover, most of the bullets are imported bullets of excellent quality.
Be careful, you won't be short of bullets this year.
"Ha ha····"
After all the bullets were put into the warehouse, the brigade chief of staff laughed wildly and didn't even notice that his saliva was drooling.
"chief of staff··"
The guard on the side couldn't stand the rampant laughter and couldn't help but remind him.
Curbing his smile, the brigade chief of staff wiped the corners of his mouth and turned his attention to the eight Czechs on the shelf in the warehouse.
These are the eight Czech guns just sent over by the Liao County County Brigade. There are sufficient spare parts and spare receivers. As long as they are not blown apart, they can be repaired immediately.
As if to ease the embarrassment, the chief of staff said to the guard on the side:
"This is a great gun!"
"This Czech type has a much higher accuracy than the ordinary Czech type. In foreign troops, it will be specially selected as a machine gun for special shooters."
"These eight guns are definitely the best eight Czech ones in the army!"
"Other troops, don't even think about taking it."
"so smart?"
Hearing the good gun, the soldier's attention was smoothly attracted.
····
"Report."
At this moment, a soldier from the brigade headquarters security company ran over and reported to the brigade chief of staff:
"Zhao Gang, the political commissar of the Independence Regiment, is here, bringing with him a large transportation team."
"Um?"
The brigade chief of staff blinked, and an idea suddenly came to his mind.
Could it be that the Independent Regiment also obtained a large number of weapons and ammunition?
But is this possible?
That's Li Yunlong!
This guy is stingy as hell!
"What's the convoy carrying?"
asked the brigade chief of staff.
"They seem to be boxes of weapons and ammunition, and there are a lot of them."
The guard company soldier replied.
"Boxes of weapons and ammunition, and a lot of them?"
"No way···"
The brigade chief of staff muttered:
"Except the brigade, everyone else has become rich?"
With an expression that varied between disbelief and surprise, the brigade chief of staff walked out of the warehouse and saw the weapons and ammunition transported by the First Battalion of the Independent Regiment.
"Report."
Zhao Gang stood at attention and saluted:
"The Independent Regiment has obtained a batch of weapons and ammunition, totaling 256 Czech-style guns and 1.28 million rounds of seven-nine-point ammunition, which are now handed over to the brigade headquarters by political commissar Zhao Gang."
"How many?"
The brigade chief of staff almost bit his tongue.
"Two hundred and fifty-six Czechs, 1.28 million rounds of seven-nine-point bullets. I have personally counted them, and there are not a few missing."
Zhao Gang repeated again.
"hiss···"
The brigade chief of staff really bit his tongue this time:
"There are so many!"
"And all of them are imported guns and ammunition."
Zhao Gang continued to report:
"Especially the Czech type. Each Czech type has five spare barrels and ten sets of spare parts. As long as it is not blown to pieces, it can be quickly repaired by replacing parts."
"Moreover, the accuracy is much higher than the ordinary Czech style. Even abroad, they will be selected and used by special shooters."
"There are more than two hundred Czech-style ones, all of the same quality. It should be that the foreign manufacturing process has been improved."
With that said, Zhao Gang brought a Czech gun, opened the box, and displayed it in front of the chief of staff.
Although Zhao Gang rarely participated in front-line operations, he was a college student after all and had studied at the Anti-Japanese University, so he still had a broad vision.
"·····"
The brigade chief of staff felt as if he had said this just now.
On the side, the guard soldier also looked at the chief of staff of his brigade. He was very sure that the chief of staff had said this just now.
Also said.
There are not many such good Czechs in the entire army.
And now, there are 256 machine gunners here, which is estimated to be more than the number of machine gunners in the entire brigade.
"Where did it come from?"
"Where do these weapons and ammunition come from?"
Seeing these familiar weapons and familiar packaging, the bullets sent by Ding Wei were also in the same walnut wood box and oil-paper moisture-proof bag. The brigade chief of staff finally recovered from his confusion and quickly asked Zhao Gang.
Damn it, why are everyone getting rich?
They are all rich!
"this··"
Political Commissar Zhao finally reacted at this time.
He forgot to ask Li Yunlong the source of this batch of weapons and ammunition!
"I forgot to ask. These were brought about by Commander Li of our independent regiment. He privately dispatched the Second Battalion for this purpose."
Zhao Gang scratched his head.
Brigade Chief of Staff: "·····"
