Canned beef stewed with potatoes, braised pork with thick oil flowers floating on top, and stewed chicken broth are the main dishes of tonight's dinner.

Wang Ping also ate the same meal, but in order to facilitate the discussion of things, Wang Ping, Yang Xiong, instructor Huang Yu, the three company commanders of the reinforced battalion, and the company commander of the third division and the captain of the district squad who were called by Yang Xiong to help, specially gathered around a table to eat.

Although Zhang Hao is the company commander of the main regiment of the Third Division, he can still only eat a full stomach in normal times.

As for such a good meal in front of me, I haven't eaten it for months. Therefore, as soon as it was served, several people had their eyes lit up, and they ate four white-flour steamed buns in a row before stopping.

Then he said to Wang Ping with emotion: ." Chief, you're smiling, it's been a long time since we've tasted meat! ”

"It's okay, eat with confidence, and when you leave, bring back half a fan of pork and two boxes of canned food, so that the soldiers can also fight tooth sacrifices." Especially the wounded, they must be nourished to recover quickly! Wang Ping understood the other party's reaction very well and replied with a smile.

"Thank you, Chief! It is a pleasure to follow you and Battalion Commander Yang to fight. In the future, as long as there is no task, if you have something to ask, please explain it directly, and I, Zhang Hao, will definitely bring the troops over to help! Zhang Hao, who was grateful, also gave Wang Ping a guarantee. Although he doesn't know how heavy his guarantee is in Wang Ping's heart, no matter what, he has to express his sincerity.

Wang Ping immediately got out of his thoughts, and replied happily: "No problem, please find you if you have something!" ”

"However, I have also seen the soldiers you have accepted, it is okay to fight guerrillas, but if you fight positional warfare, the strength is still a little worse. So, don't be afraid to waste ammunition when you go back, and continue to strengthen your training. Remember my words, only when we have trained our troops well can we use our strength to fight a war of annihilation against the enemy, and only by fighting a war of annihilation can we capture weapons and equipment and thus strengthen ourselves. Therefore, when training, use live ammunition when you should use it, and don't be afraid of wasting! Wang Ping liked Zhang Hao's cheerfulness very much, and took the opportunity to explain.

Yang Xiong next to him could see at a glance that the old regiment commander wanted to cultivate Zhang Hao, and then added: "Company Commander Zhang, you must not have imagined that the soldiers I brought to the battlefield today are all recruits who have just been replenished by the military region, and the training has not been five days. However, when fighting an ambush, their marksmanship can already guarantee at least a 30% hit rate. Do you know what the reason is? ”

"In order to improve their marksmanship as soon as possible, our factory director directly took out 5,000 rounds of ammunition to train them."

"You can also see the effect, it is very good, it wiped out hundreds of puppet troops in one battle, and captured tens of thousands of bullets and a large number of weapons. Compared to the capture, the little bullet consumed by the training is nothing at all! ”

Zhang Hao replied gratefully: "Chief, Camp Commander Yang, I have listened to your words. I have seen today's battle and have a deep understanding, and I will definitely train my troops well after I go back to ensure that I will live up to the high expectations of the chief! ”

Wang Ping was very satisfied with Zhang Hao's answer, turned his head to Yang Xiong and asked, "Are the weapons and ammunition for Company Commander Zhang ready?" ”

"All set!" Yang Xiong hurriedly replied.

Zhang Hao still had a grateful expression just now, but at this time, it directly turned into expectation, and then stared at Yang Xiong and waited for the following!

Yang Xiong knew very well why the other party was so nervous, although he eliminated many Japanese puppet troops, the casualties of the troops were also large. If you don't have anything to bring back, you will definitely not be able to give an explanation to your immediate superiors.

Therefore, Yang Xiong was not polite, and replied directly: "There are a total of 50 38 large covers, three light machine guns, three grenadiers, and one Type 92 heavy machine gun." In addition to 1,000 rounds of heavy machine gun bullets, a total of 8,000 rounds of light machine gun and rifle bullets, 30 grenades for grenades, and 100 grenades! ”

"Shhh So much, chief, too much, that's a lot more weapons and ammunition than you promised at the beginning! Zhang Hao, who was shocked, hurriedly replied.

"Not much!" Wang Ping replied with a wave of his hand.

"With such heavy casualties among the troops, it is appropriate to give these weapons and ammunition. It's not just you, the district squad also has a platoon of weapons. As for the guerrillas, I gave ten guns and one machine gun to each guerrilla unit, as well as five hundred rounds of ammunition and twenty grenades in the uniform of the Imperial Concord! ”

"If it's possible, apply to the top when you go back and form a fire platoon. In this way, if you face an infantry squad of the Japanese army, as long as you train well, you can eat it in one bite! ”

Zhang Hao's eyes lit up, and a pair of eyes shot out two scorching rays of light.

A company against an infantry squad of the Japanese army, this is something he has long dreamed of. So, after only a brief hesitation, he replied briskly: "Thank you, Chief!" ”

"In addition, chief, I have another request, can you give me a few mines you use during the day, use mines to fight devils, the effect is not ordinarily good!"

"Twenty for you!" Wang Ping replied very quickly.

After sending off the main companies of the guerrillas and the third district, Yang Xiong immediately reported.

"Factory director, when I went out to send it out, there were still 183 pieces of weapons and ammunition seized, 210 pieces of medium and official weapons, six machine guns, one heavy machine gun, three grenadiers, and nearly 40,000 rounds of various bullets. What to do with these weapons and ammunition! ”

"Surrender to the military district!" Wang Ping replied without thinking about it.

"The equipment of the military district guard regiment is so poor, it is really in danger, and even self-protection is a problem, let alone protecting the commander. Therefore, the equipment and firepower of the guard regiment must be strengthened, and I will personally send it over tomorrow. ”

"In addition, out of the 2,000 absentees, pick 100 skilled absentees to stay. They have been digging coal mines for so long, and they must know more technology than the average person. The rest of the absenteeism was all sent to the military region, and the military region reorganized them. The same is true of the seized supplies, we left a month's rations for ourselves, and handed over the rest! ”

"By the way, Professor Li, who was brought back from the coal mine, must be arranged. Tomorrow morning I will go to him myself, and if I can't keep him, I'll try to keep him for a few months! ”

"In addition, let our political work cadres move around with Professor Li's students more, a dozen students, and at least half of them will be left at that time! In addition, you can also find a way to mobilize them to join the party, even if the qualifications are not met, you can also let them become probationary party members first! ”

"They are all talents, and staying in our arsenal will definitely be beneficial and harmless!"

"Yes, Director!" Yang Xiong and Huang Yu, who rushed over from behind, immediately replied.

The next day, Wang Ping had just arrived at the military region after a few hours of travel, and the chief of staff of the military region greeted him.

"Chief, why did you get out?" Wang Ping said with a flattered expression.

"Why, if you allow Wang Ping to make trouble in the Heavenly Palace here and fight devils, I will not be allowed to come out to greet you. Besides, just with the materials, weapons and ammunition you brought to the military region, as well as the 2,000 absenteeism that can be immediately transformed into soldiers, it is worth my time to come out to greet them! ”

"In a word, you played very well this time, Commander Nie is waiting for you in the war room, hurry up. I'll take care of all this stuff and absenteeism! ”

"Report to the chief, Wang Ping to report!" As soon as he saw Commander Nie, Wang Ping saluted and said.

"It seems that you have chosen the right person to be the director of the arsenal. It's only been a few days since there was such a big commotion, which is very good. Tell me about the Arsenal. You don't know, the headquarters also knows that we will set up an arsenal again, and they sent a special telegram to ask! ”

The second more sent, ask for collection! Ask for a subscription!
