Chapter Forty-Eight: Alliances

Two men, a middle-aged man who has been experienced in the world, and a young offspring who has just come out of service, they just looked at each other like that, and for a long time, they laughed tacitly.

Ouyang Yun said with a smile: "Don't tell lies in front of real people, we did have a plan to visit Big Brother and the brothers in the Nine War Zone this time. ”

Xue Yue looked at him quietly. If the previous gift show was just a signal, then now, his intention is very clear.

"We want to form an alliance with your army."

"Alliance?" Xue Yue followed and couldn't help but groan. After a while, he said: "Brother Ouyang's thoughts, I can only understand them. An alliance can only take place between the two sides in terms of equal strength, but we, as members of the National Revolutionary Army, do not have the qualifications to do so. In fact, it is your army, and it is still a member of the National Revolutionary Army. With all due respect, brother, it's a great rebellion for you to say such a thing. ”

Ouyang Yun smiled. Regardless of whether Xue Yue is sincere or false, one thing is true, the troops he leads are indeed part of the National Revolutionary Army, and he, Xue Yue, is actually not completely in charge. Of course, as a senior general, he also has his own lineage, and according to the information provided by Fox Hitomi, it is the size of two divisions. Although there were only two divisions, which were far from being comparable to the five armies of the Scholar Army, Ouyang Yun did not dare to underestimate the other party. Because his two descendants also controlled several other divisions, in fact, as long as Xue Yue did his homework well, the strength he possessed would not be much worse than that of the Scholar Army. There is a premise for this, that is, Ouyang Yun must come up with enough benefits to make him willing to do such a big thing, even if it is just a private alliance. "It's not a feudal dynasty now, and this hat can't be worn on my head, and I won't admit it. Brother Xue, you can also see that everything I, Ouyang Yun and the Cadet Army, have done so far is to expel the Japanese and kill the devils. And isn't it the same thing that you and your army are trying to do now? Based on this common denominator, we already have the need to form an alliance - Shichang! ”

"Here!"

"Go get a submachine gun and an assault rifle."

"Yes!"

The sound of military boots slamming on the ground sounded outside the door, and a few minutes later, Chen Shichang walked in with a Weiqing-style submachine gun and an assault rifle.

Ouyang Yun took the submachine gun from him, pulled the bolt, and then said to Xue Yue: "Weiqing-style WQ-9 submachine gun, caliber 9 mm, bullet muzzle velocity of 412 meters per second, theoretical rate of fire of 650 rounds per minute, ruler range of 250 meters, in-line magazines, each magazine has a feed of 40 rounds. The WQ-0 weighs six pounds and seven taels and uses a foldable butt, which is 793 mm long when the butt is open and 605 mm long when folded. This gun is designed to make up for short and medium distances, and if it is used with tanks and combat vehicles, it has a strong ability to attack fortifications, and is the first choice for infantry charges. ”

The popularization and application of submachine guns in World War II was originally set up to make up for the lack of heavy machine guns and to protect combat vehicle units. Of course, that was the German usage, while in China, the National Revolutionary Army was equipped with this kind of gun, more to provide intensive fire support for the squad and platoon, in order to ensure sufficient firepower output in the event of a short encounter, so as to ensure that the Japanese army could be repulsed in a single shot. In the national army, anyone who has dealt with the student army, or has deliberately approached it, is most envious of the automatic weapons in the hands of the student army. The Cadet Corps has not been equipped with submachine guns for a long time, and most of the equipment of this kind of weapons is equipped with mobile units with a certain amount of armor, while the Weiqing assault rifle is the regular configuration of the Cadet Corps.

Ouyang Yun's introduction was not over yet, and Xue Yue couldn't wait to stretch out his hand. Ouyang Yun was not taboo, and handed him the gun directly. He looked at it carefully, and then said: "The shape is more beautiful than that made in Germany, and it is more exquisite." Does the 200-meter scale range mean that accuracy can be guaranteed at that distance? ”

"Yes. The two of you look at this assault step again, by the way, this kind of gun, your army seems to be equipped with troops. ”

After the Weiqing-style assault step became famous on the battlefield against Japan, it immediately encountered crazy piracy, and if it weren't for the high steel requirements for the gun body, it must have been completely replaced by this gun now.

Zhao Zili was playing with the assault step, and said with a smile: "We have two regiments equipped with this kind of imitation gun, but no, it is much worse than your original goods, and it often jams when firing automatically." ”

"That's because the steel used to make the barrel is substandard. These two guns, our student army is not fully equipped, so this time there are no two guns in the gift list, however, if we form an alliance, we can provide you with high-quality steel at a low price, as long as we have this kind of steel, the imitation of this gun is almost real. ”

Xue Yue also had his own armory, but the scale was very small, only two or three hundred people in total. The original function of this ordnance institute was to repair guns, but with the surge of imitation Weiqing-style assault steps across the country, Xue Yue was not exempt from vulgarity, and followed the plagiarism, but it backfired, although there was a lot of investment, but it failed to obtain considerable benefits. Because of this, Xue Yue was very angry for a while, but now that he heard Ouyang Yun's naked temptation, his face was a little unbearable. He said: "The firepower density of this submachine gun is enough, but the range is too different, five or six hundred meters worse than the 38 big cover, take this kind of gun and fight against the little devil, hanging!" ”

Zhao Zili raised a more realistic question, and he asked with a wry smile: "What is the low price, Commander Ouyang, our Ninth War Zone is not as good as your army, we are poor!" ”

Hearing this, Xue Yue also calmed down and quietly listened to Ouyang Yun's answer.

No matter what his feelings about Ouyang Yun were in his heart, whether his previous attitude was true or false, but there was one thing he admired Ouyang Yun very much, that is, the wealth of the Xuebing Army. Ordinary soldiers have a salary of five oceans every month, and those who are officials are even more doubled, and this kind of consumption of financial resources, looking at the whole of China, is also affordable by Ouyang Yun.

A penny starves heroes to death, although there are various truths in this world, there is one thing in common, that is, the effect of money.

Ouyang Yun looked at Xue Yue and said with a smile: "Listen to Chief of Staff Zhao, is he willing to form an alliance with us?" ”

Zhao Zili waved his hand and smiled: "I can't be the master of this, Commander Xue has the final say." ”

They all looked at Xue Yue, and after Xue Yue's face was red because of alcohol, he gritted his teeth and said, "If the Cadet Army can really provide us with considerable equipment for three divisions, then I will conclude this alliance." ”

Ouyang Yun said: "Brother Xue, have you thought about it, the alliance between you and me is not only military, but comprehensive cooperation, which includes both economic and politicalβ€”β€”"

What Ouyang Yun valued most about Xue Yue was military and politics. However, militarily because they have a common goal, there is no problem, but politically it is not easy to say - at least in the eyes of Ouyang Yun and Jiang Shuren, this political cooperation is actually a trap, as long as Xue Yue agrees, then it means that he is completely on a united front with the Xuebing Army.

Xue Yue was such a shrewd person, naturally it was impossible not to think of this, he gritted his teeth again and said, "Of course. ”

Ouyang Yun laughed heartily and said, "Then it's no problem." Money problem, I'll help you find a way to solve it. Well, Shi Chang, you immediately send a telegram to General Fan, asking him to send the list of all agents in the jurisdiction of the Ninth War Zone, and tell him that from now on, the share of all agents will be reduced to one-third, and the extra two-thirds will be handed over to Commander Xue. In addition, all military-related products or semi-finished products will be lowered by 20 percent on the basis of the original wholesale price. ”

"What a shame!" Chen Shichang nodded, and then walked out of the hall directly.

Xue Yue didn't understand business, and he didn't realize the deep meaning of Ouyang Yun's words after listening to them, but Zhao Zili was already smiling. He said to Xue Yue: "Commander, this time we are really big, hehe, it seems that Commander Ouyang is really full of sincerity on this trip, then, did we sign the relevant agreement immediately?" After saying this, he also glanced at Xue Yue with ulterior motives.

And Xue Yue realized the huge benefits in it, and a smile finally bloomed on his face.

After several years of rapid development, the barracks factories and joint-stock factories under the rule of the Xuebing Army have basically monopolized the production and sales of many domestic products, including drugs and electronic products with huge profits. And just penicillin, a drug, has a very terrifying number in domestic sales.

Among the factories and mines belonging to the Cadet Army, there are three of the most profitable, the first is medicine, followed by the military industry and electronics, but the military industry is basically not sold, at most it is exchanged for some scarce materials or other military products. Among them, the profit of medicine ranks first. The price of one of the portable field hospital sets is already equivalent to a Xue-1 fighter, and in the West, especially in the United States, this product has become the largest growth point in the profits of the student army.

The purpose of the field hospital set is to enable doctors to perform operations in extremely harsh environments, and its value is actually greater than that of the Xue-1 fighter. However, in view of the high level of knowledge mastery of professionals in this field hospital suite, it is also accompanied by the relevant training plan of the cadet army, which can be regarded as a subordinate product of the hospital suite.

The general direction was finalized, and the two sides signed an alliance agreement in a friendly atmosphere, and with the signing of this agreement, Ouyang Yun generously sent a field hospital kit with a stroke of his pen.

So far, his trip to Changsha has successfully completed the intended goal. It is conceivable that as the relationship between the cadet army and the Ninth Theater becomes more harmonious, the living environment of the cadet army will inevitably be greatly improved. And as the negotiations between China and Japan are gradually reached, this agreement will play an uncertain role.
