When Zhang Chi followed Wang Mazi all the way to the division headquarters in Tonggu and walked up to the conference room on the second floor, the conference room was already full of people.

As soon as he saw Wang Mazi coming in with a soldier, Dai Anlan let out a "hmm" and asked, "Is he Zhang Chi?" ”

"Reporter!" Wang Mazi stepped forward and said: "He is Zhang Chi, the platoon commander of the first battalion, one company, and three platoons of the engineering regiment!" ”

Wang Mazi deliberately reported the complete number, and he reported it very loudly, needless to say, his intention was to show off in front of the officers of other regiments.

"Good, good!" Dai Anlan looked at Zhang Chi and nodded, he stepped forward and shook Zhang Chi's hand, and said, "Brother, good fight!" This time you are giving us an expeditionary force and winning glory for the Chinese! ”

"Colleagues!" Then Dai Anlan turned to the officers in the conference room and said, "This ...... It was Zhang Chi, the commander of the third platoon, who bravely blocked thousands of Japanese troops with a platoon of troops at the Wajie Iron Bridge and snatched a large number of British tanks and other equipment from the Japanese army! ”

There was a "whoa", and the conference room soon burst into applause.

"Sit down and ......" Dai Anlan very politely pointed out the position for Wang Mazi and Zhang Chi: "Because the war is not over yet, we can only wait for the triumph before holding a celebration banquet for the engineer regiment!" ”

Although Wang Mazi responded humbly on his lips, he was happy in his heart.

"Everyone!" After everyone sat down, Dai Anlan said: "We have handed over so much British equipment at the Wajie Iron Bridge, which can be said to be an unexpected gain, but how to use this batch of equipment......

"Master!" An adjutant sitting next to Dai Anlan stood up and said, "I think we should notify the British side as soon as possible and return this batch of equipment!" ”

This voice immediately caused a wave of opposition around him, and Zhang Chi also felt a little unbelievable about this, at this time, it was the time when 200 was in urgent need of equipment, where was there any reason to return the duck to the mouth.

"Tell me why." Dai Anlan asked quietly.

"Master!" The adjutant explained: "The British are our allies, and although we captured this batch of equipment from the Japanese army, how can the British admit it?" One can't get it right...... The British said that we were robbing the alliance by destroying the relationship between the two of us, which is only afraid of ...... It will affect the overall situation of the Sino-British alliance. ”

Dai Anlan couldn't help frowning, this adjutant's surname is Yang, and he is a military commander. Although Dai Anlan has always looked at him unpleasantly, he has to admit that what he said has some truth.

But after thinking about it, at this time, Tonggu was already in danger, and the 200th Division could be completely wiped out by the Japanese army at any time due to lack of ammunition and equipment, how could he easily give this life-saving straw to the British for them to use to escape? If he did this, how could he, as a division commander, be worthy of these thousands of officers and soldiers under his command? How can they be convinced to fight against the ancients?!

Thinking of this, Dai Anlan categorically refused: "Adjutant Yang, this batch of equipment was handed over by us from the Japanese, and the British want it, let them ask the Japanese!" ”

"Master, take care of the overall situation......"

"Say no more!" Dai Anlan raised his hand to interrupt the adjutant's words: "What we have to consider now is which unit to assign these equipment to. ”

"Master, give us the regiment. Our regiment is on the front line and is in dire need of tanks. ”

"Division, our regiment has many veterans of tank driving."

……

Suddenly, several main regiments had a dispute, tanks were a hot commodity, not to mention that these were a large number of American tanks that were more advanced than Japanese tanks.

However, the more Zhang Chi thought about it, the more wrong it became, so he hesitated to stand up and said: "Master, I think those equipment should belong to the engineer regiment!" ”

The audience was stunned for a moment, even Wang Mazi didn't expect Zhang Chi to say such a thing, and hurriedly pressed Zhang Chi back to his seat, with a smile on his face: "Master's seat, he is the leader of the third row...... Nonsense! He had just come down from the battlefield ......"

"Captain Wang!" An officer on the opposite side said in a mocking tone: "How can I say that these equipment were also snatched back from the devil by the third platoon commander with his life, so he must have a little right to speak!" ”

It was Li Tongxiang, the head of the 599 regiment, who had a holiday with Wang Mazi before. Specifically, this festival is a holiday, that is, several soldiers of the 599 Regiment did not treat the soldiers of the Engineer Regiment as human beings, and robbed the rations of the Engineer Regiment without authorization, and as a result, Wang Mazi was arrested and sent to justice...... At this time, Li Tongxiang was already unhappy because of the meritorious service of the engineer regiment, so of course he would not let go of such an ugly opportunity for them.

"Head Li, you ......" Of course, Wang Mazi knew what Li Tongxiang meant, but he didn't have a problem with him for a while.

"Let the three platoon commanders talk about it." Dai Anlan raised his head towards Zhang Chi.

Since the master had spoken, Wang Mazi didn't dare to stop him, so he had to glare at Zhang Chi fiercely and sit back.

In fact, Zhang Chi didn't want to do this, the reason why he had to say it was because if this tank was not properly matched, it was very likely that it would be a blessing or a curse, and he would be a member of the 200th Division at that time, and he was afraid that he would not have good fruit to eat.

"This ......" Zhang Chi hesitated and stood up, sorted out his thoughts and said: "First of all, the ammunition problem, the machine guns on the British tanks are all British machine guns, and they are all British bullets, which are not compatible with our bullets......

"Platoon Commander Zhang!" Li Tongxiang interrupted Zhang Chi's words and said: "This problem is easy to solve, we just need to replace our own machine guns." ”

"Absolutely." Zhang Chi replied: "But we are afraid that there are not many machine gun bullets, even if we change to a tank, how long can we fight?" ”

Hearing this, the officers couldn't help but be stunned, but Wang Mazi's eyes lit up and he immediately came to his senses.

Zhang Chi is really saying that the 200th Division has fought with the Japanese army so far, and the bullets have almost hit, but the supply has not yet appeared, even if the machine gun is replaced with a tank, what role can it play?

"Go on!" Dai Anlan nodded, and secretly said that this Zhang Chi is really a bit inky, which is different from the adjutant who talks on paper.

"That's enough of a headache for us." With Dai Anlan's support, Zhang Chi plucked up the courage to continue: "Don't change the machine gun, it means that we have many types of bullets, one moment is rifle bullet, one time is machine gun bullet, one moment is British bullet and one time is our army's bullet, if this is mixed up on the battlefield, there will be a big mess." ”

As soon as they say this, the officers can't help but look at each other, this point actually doesn't need to be explained too much, as the first army, they have long suffered enough from making equipment in all countries, and it is precisely because of this that the troops must try to unify guns and ammunition, but because of the shortage of materials, they often can't do it.

For example, the main force of the 200th Division is equipped with Soviet-style Mosin Nagant, while the engineer regiment uses Hanyang-made, and this situation is still different regiments use different equipment, if several types of equipment are used in a regiment, it is almost inevitable that there will be confusion of ammunition in the battle.

Seeing that the officers did not speak, Zhang Chi continued to say: "The second is ...... Looking at the virtue of the British, I'm afraid it will be difficult to provide us with air support......"

Speaking of this, Zhang Chi deliberately paused and turned his gaze to Dai Anlan.

Zhang Chi is a smart learner, although history tells him that the British planes were blown up without playing any role, but as a small soldier, he still "knows a little less".

Staff Officer Liang and Dai Anlan glanced at each other, and after receiving Dai Anlan's tacit approval, Staff Officer Liang said: "We have just received the news that yesterday the Japanese army bombed the British Army's Magway Air Base, and dozens of advanced fighters of the British Air Force were blown up at the airport before they could take off!" ”
