Chapter 42: The Legion's Family

Liu Hua, who returned to the station, did not rest, and hurriedly asked the operator to inform the division commanders to come to the meeting in the afternoon, and took advantage of the hours before the meeting to take the political commissar Guan Xiangying to the logistics department and found Li Qing, the chief butler of the Red Seventh Army.

"Director Li, there are no outsiders here, you and I and the political commissar have a thorough understanding, how much money do we still have in the Seventh Legion," After speaking, Liu Hua and Guan Xiangying surrounded him with a smile.

"Commander, also, I really don't know how distressed I don't know if I don't know my family, the logistics department is about to be drained by you, you still want it, I can tell you, there is nothing in the logistics department now." After finishing speaking, he calculated the account and didn't give Liu Hua a little face.

Liu Hua knew that Li Qing said this and felt sorry for the materials sent to the headquarters, although they were all Red Army, but after all, they were exchanged for their lives by the soldiers under his command.

"Political commissar, just talk about it, let me, the commander of the legion, have a bottom in his heart when he fights, the political commissar just came, and he doesn't know much about the Seventh Legion, and now he should know more, the party committee of the Red Seventh Legion is only three of us, and such a big mess depends on a few of us, hehe." Looking at Li Qing jokingly.

"Well, Legion Commander, Gold you know, you can explain it to the commissar in a moment. There are only about 50,000 silver dollars left. Food, we still have 200,000 catties, enough for the troops to eat for about ten days, bacon, due to the regulations of the corps commander, has not been allowed to use, only allowed reserves, now a total of 50,000 catties in reserve, there are not many military uniforms, all the personnel of the army are only left after a set of about 2,000 sets, but there are still a lot of cloth and cotton. That's all the supplies for our logistics department. Li Qing paused and looked at his legion leader.

The political commissar opened his mouth at this time, he didn't expect that his legion still had so many supplies, he really couldn't imagine what the young corps commander in front of him was doing, and the Red Seventh Legion had so many supplies.

"Director Li, in this way, you must stock 10,000 sets of cotton and cloth from our inventory to continue to make military uniforms. The half of the food came out and distributed it to the soldiers of each battalion, so that they could make dry food for 5 days, which they would use when they were ready for battle, and all the remaining food would be stored and not used again. Liu Hua = patted Guan Xiangying, the political commissar who was in surprise.

"Commander, weapons, there are still about 4,000 rifles, pistols, and submachine guns in stock, 50 light machine guns in stock, no more heavy machine guns and mortars, and a lot of ammunition, about 3 million rifle rounds, 200,000 grenades, and mortar shells in addition to the 100 shells for each regiment, and nearly 6,000 shells in our logistics department, that's all." After speaking, he spread his hands towards Liu Hua.

"Commander of the corps, Director Li, you are not wrong, we still have so much ammunition stored in logistics, my mother, I have never seen so many things, it scares me to death." Listening to the words of the political commissar, Liu Hua and Li Qing smiled.

"That's it, Director Li, we are going to start fighting again tomorrow, you know me, there will be a lot of captures, so we must reduce the pressure on logistics, in this way, Director Li, you send someone to send the part of the guns and ammunition we have stored to the general headquarters, take 3,000 rifles, all the submachine guns and pistols, and change weapons and ammunition for the guards of several corps commanders? Take 1,500,000 rounds of rifle shells, 100,000 grenades, 3,000 rounds of mortar shells, you arrange for someone to send them immediately, and we will leave tomorrow. ”

"Legion Commander, there are so many, so what will we use in the future?" Li Qing replied depressedly, and the political commissar next to him also looked at the corps commander in a daze, obviously not wanting to send it, looking at the eyes of the two, Liu Hua smiled.

"Two big brothers, what's this, aren't we going to fight, so that there will be captures in the war, you believe me, I will definitely capture all these things in this battle."

Seeing the confident expression of the corps commander, the two had no choice but to nod and agree, and in this way, under Li Qing's arrangement, Li Xiaowu escorted the materials to the headquarters. After arranging everything, the three partners had lunch together, and although they couldn't drink because they had a meeting in the afternoon, the three of them had a great time.

Sitting at the front of the conference room, Liu Hua listened to the training reports of the three division commanders and kept nodding his head. Through their reports, Liu Hua knew that the combat effectiveness of his three main divisions had been able to catch up with the original two regiments, and in this way, Liu Hua was even more confident in this combat mission.

"Alright, commissar, tell us about the enemy." Liu Hua looked at his partner Guan Xiangying.

"Comrades, after investigation, we know that a division of Zhang Zhenhan of the Hubei Army stationed in Taoyuan, the ace unit of the Hubei Army, has a total of three brigades and nine regiments, and it is well-equipped. In addition, there is a mountain artillery battalion, and they can be supported by planes at any time during the battle, but the corps commander said that in such a mountainous terrain, it doesn't matter if planes come, and there is no threat to us. In addition, two regiments of Zhang Zhenhan's division were stationed in Yujiaping. There is another problem, that is, Zhang Zhenhan is a regular military academy graduate, and he looks down on our Red Army, hehe, that is, he should be very light on us, and this trick should be very useful to us. Next, I would like to ask the corps commander to assign us combat missions. With that, he sat down.

"Okay, everyone already knows the enemy's situation, and this time the combat policy of our Seventh Army Corps is to make a fuss about Zhang Zhenhan's idea of underestimating the enemy, and give him another encirclement point to send reinforcements. Below I command:

Division Commander Sun Xingbang, you take a division to attack Yujiaping from the front, and you don't ask you to take Yujiaping down, but only ask you to hurt the two regiments in the bar, so that they want Zhang Zhenhan to ask for help. Can you complete the task? ”

"Yes, Legion Commander, resolutely complete the mission."

"All the other troops are led by me, bypassing Yujiaping, and we are still ambushing Zhang Zhenhan at Taozixi."

"Division commander, it's still in Peach Creek, where did we ambush the 15th Division last time, will they be fooled this time?" The commissar reminded.

"Hehe, political commissar, I know that I have committed a taboo in the soldiers, think about it, lying in Taozi Creek can't even think of you, let alone Zhang Zhenhan, who is a light enemy of the Red Army" After speaking, Liu Hua looked at the silent crowd.

"Okay, since everyone is silent, the meeting will stop here, gather the troops as soon as we go back, and leave tomorrow morning at eight o'clock to adjourn."

"Report to President He, serve as political commissar. Li Xiaowu, head of the combat regiment of the logistics department of the Red Seventh Army Corps, came to report. "Mr. He, the political commissar was researching the map of the people, and was suddenly awakened by a report. I saw the young man in front of me.

"Commander Li, do you have anything to do with coming to the headquarters?" Mr. He asked suspiciously.

"Report to General He, serve as the political commissar, and the order of the commander and political commissar of my crazy regiment will escort a batch of supplies and ammunition to the headquarters." Several people in the command looked confused.

"What supplies, show me." After speaking, Mr. He turned out the list of materials in Li Xiaowu's hand.

"My mother, political commissar, Liu Hua's kid has given us gifts again, look at it, there are so many, I really don't know where this kid got so many supplies." Mr. He said with a smile.

"3,000 rifles, 400 submachine gun pistols, 1.5 million rounds of ammunition, 100,000 grenades, 3,000 mortar rounds. So much. "Seeing the numbers on the list, the political commissar Ren was also shocked.

"Hehe, political commissar Ren, I'll make a bet with you, Liu Hua's kid should still have inventory there, believe it or not." Mr. He saw the surprised appearance of Political Commissar Ren and said with a smile.

"Of course I believe that the kind of person who likes to take advantage of him will empty his own family, it seems that we will have less of it last time we drank."

Li Xiaowu stood there and watched the two chiefs go there joking, he really had a feeling of wanting to laugh, he knew that the reason why he took out so much this time was because the legion commander wanted to free up enough mules and horses to transport the capture of this battle, and the two leaders were wrong.
