Chapter 3 New Business is Coming
"You brought it back?"
Hearing Li Yunlong's words, Zhang Wanhe looked at him suddenly, his eyes glared at the boss, and his tone was full of surprise.
If he had this complete set of machines, he would be able to guarantee that in less than a year, no, in less than half a year, he would be able to increase the production of high-quality grenadiers engraved with rifling to more than 200 per month, and the production of supporting grenades to about 5,000 rounds per month.
This amount can already allow each main regiment in the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei region to equip enough grenadiers and maintain subsequent losses. The infantry accompanying firepower of the troops will be greatly improved.
If the problem of insufficient raw materials can be solved in the future, the output can be increased a lot, if the implementation of three shifts, the monthly output of more than 10,000 is not a dream.
"But how did you get it back?"
Subsequently, Zhang Wanhe muttered to himself.
A ton of things, mountain roads, close range is fine, more people can barely drag it, but long distance, it is absolutely impossible to bring it, even that kind of big mule is not good, this is incomprehensible, he understands the management of the arsenal too well.
In the past, the devils came, and if the time was urgent, they would bury the heavy machines.
"Could it be that Boss Chen helped you transport it?"
Zhang Wanhe remembered the 800 tons of cotton thread that mysteriously appeared near the quilt factory.
So far, he still hasn't figured out how the other party transported it, it's incredible, 800 tons, and the plane can't transport so much, and it's quietly placed near the quilt factory.
Every time he thought about this, he couldn't help but feel a chill down his spine.
If this is the enemy·····
"Brother Chen can't help me with this."
Li Yunlong shook his head, he had asked about this a long time ago, and the answer he got was no, he explained:
"I found a hidden place to bury the machine, near Wendian Village, and then got some stones and tied them up and threw them into the sinkhole lake over there, and then poured engine oil, the devil must have thought that the machine was thrown into the lake."
"The lake is nearly fifty meters deep, and in this weather, it is impossible to send people down to fish."
"After a while, the devil is relaxed, and then send someone to drag it back at night."
"Good idea."
Listening to Li Yunlong's explanation, Zhang Wanhe's eyes lit up.
If it is simply buried, the devil is likely to find out, after all, the little devil also has a brain, and a little thought can tell that such a heavy machine, the mountain road will definitely not be taken away, either destroyed, or buried, but Li Yunlong put a smoke bomb, made a pile of stones and threw them into the lake, and poured engine oil, pretending to be decent.
It's hard to guess this little devil.
"Where exactly?"
Zhang Wanhe was a little eager to get his hands on these machines:
"I'm going to send someone to bring it back."
Wendian Village is not far from the edge of the base area, the troops' infiltration of that side is very good, there are a lot of underground comrades, because of the relationship between the highway, the transportation is convenient, the materials collected by the logistics department often go over there, and there are people lurking in the highway checkpoints.
"Hey, hey, hey..."
Li Yunlong readily agreed: "I'll let someone give you the location of the machine later." ”
It was much more convenient for Zhang Wanhe to do this than him.
Now the Jin-Cha-Ji Division Headquarters and the headquarters are acting together, as the logistics minister, this cargo can mobilize the manpower of the entire Jin-Cha-Ji region, and in terms of transportation, it is much more capable than a regiment commander.
After thinking for a while, Li Yunlong added:
"When the time comes, I'll send someone to follow you when you go to transport, and you will bring these machines back by yourself."
"Also, in the future, if my brother and I have anything missing, I will ask you for help, you can't turn your face and deny people."
Grand Master Li naturally will not forget to ask for benefits, although he can no longer look down on most of the things in the logistics department, but it is impossible for a unit to need only weapons and food.
"Okay, as long as I can do it, you just have to speak."
Zhang Wanhe's mouth was about to laugh crookedly.
As long as this batch of machines is in hand, all the damage caused by the Yamazaki brigade to the arsenal can be restored, and even the production capacity will be even higher, after all, there are not only equipment for making grenadiers, but also some machines for making guns.
As for Li Yunlong's things, now the weapons and ammunition he made there are not worth it, and the grain independent regiment can also be self-sufficient, and all of them are fine grains, so he can't look down on him even more.
In addition to these two, the others can be given casually, anyway, the superiors have already said openly and secretly, this product has a demand, try to meet it, if it can't be satisfied, then find a way to meet it.
Zhang Wanhe understands this attitude very well.
In terms of quantity, Li Yunlong actually provided more weapons and ammunition to various units than his arsenal, not to mention the quality, the quality of those Czech and bullets, he felt furious when he saw it.
What a terrible technology it is to be able to mass-produce weapons and ammunition of this quality.
When the machine arrived, Zhang Wanhe, who couldn't wait, looked at the machine in the yard, and suddenly remembered that his transport team had been taken away, and immediately scolded:
"Damn, I knew I wouldn't let Lao Liu use my transport team."
He knew from the brigade headquarters that Li Yunlong had gotten a lot of machinery and equipment, and he didn't have anything to do recently, so he rushed over with the transport team, but he really didn't expect that there were a lot of them, there were a lot of machines and equipment at all.
The two branches of the arsenal of his headquarters are combined, and there are not as many machines in the yard as they are now, not to mention the quality, and he also has the wire drawing machine tools that were made in the last century that were older than him.
After scolding, Zhang Wanhe suddenly turned his gaze to Li Yunlong, and a bright light flashed in his vision:
"Your convoy will lend me an envoy and promise to return it to you."
He suddenly remembered that although this cargo did not bring back the two medium parts, it also brought back dozens of tons of medicines, as well as such a large number of machinery and equipment, and it was still a mountain road, and this transportation capacity was much more powerful than his transportation team.
"Don't worry about me."
Li Yunlong waved his hand, his face full of distress:
"The labor-management transport team has been lying in the nest, in order to transport these machines back, I have spent a lot of money, all the big mules are overloaded, and now all the big mules in the regiment are tired and lying down, and they can't recover in half a month, you can find your own way to transport them."
"Hey..."
Zhang Wanhe sighed: "Then I'll wait here for you, and I'll transport the machine back when the transport team comes back." ”
Now there is no war, the work of the arsenal and several factories in the headquarters is also on track, and he, the logistics minister, has nothing to do.
As for the parts of the machine that he had on his mind.
The machine in Wendian Village must not be able to do it now, the devil has just been beaten, and it must be on high alert in the near future, and it is best to let the staff discuss the specific plan, and there must be no accidents.
"You're not going to leave food alone, are you? I didn't bring anything to eat this time. ”
Zhang Wanhe pretended to look at Li Yunlong vigilantly.
"Hehe..."
This dog thing asked him to grind things before he mocked labor and management... Grand Master Li sneered: "Do you think Lao Tzu is as stingy as you? You can eat, I will entertain you with big fish and meat at every meal. ”
"Don't say you've lost weight here at labor."
Now that the Independent Regiment has enough food, he naturally won't pick the door in this place.
Moreover, the regiment has just won a battle, so it is natural to treat the soldiers well in terms of food.
"Haha..."
Zhang Wanhe licked his lips and was overjoyed: "Then I'm welcome." ”
The canned meat on Master Li's side is famous in the entire Jinchaji base, and the taste is comparable to the main dish of a top restaurant in a big city, and he has been hungry for a long time.
During the two days of waiting for the transport team, Zhang Wanhe enjoyed an unprecedented happy life here.
The snow-white rice, the crystal white white noodles, and the red and clear canned braised pork make Minister Zhang's stomach round every day. After eating, he went into the yard to study the machine.
He found that this batch of machinery and equipment was much better than he expected, the quality was good, and the number of years of use was not long, the key was that it was quite complete, and it also came with a manual, and it could be put into use immediately after pulling it back and debugging.
Far from the half a year he had predicted.
This made him feel twice as happy in an instant.
"Let's go, if you have any requirements in the future, just mention it, as long as I can do it, I won't frown, even if I can't do it, I will find a way to do it for you."
Before leaving the Independent Regiment, Zhang Wanhe said to Li Yunlong in a solemn tone.
In the past two days, he has also seen how strong the independent regiment really is.
An artillery battery of 6 82 mortars, machine guns were popularized to the squad, and there were even two Type 92 infantry guns.
Such a strong team, in the hands of Li Yunlong, and that mysterious Chen Fan tinkering with intelligence and supplies, can he stay honestly? There is no possibility, maybe one day I will go out and rob the devil again.
He is also counting on Grand Master Li to grab some more machinery and equipment to come back!
Even if there is no order from his superiors at headquarters, he will try to respond as much as possible.
"Hahaha."
Grand Master Li was also very happy, and he did not waste his good hospitality in the past few days: "I remember your words, don't deny it when the time comes." ”
Just when Zhang Wanhe left and his back was still there, the iron communicator on Li Yunlong's waist rang, and as he followed, Li Yunlong's eyes also lit up.
New business is coming!
······
Taiyuan.
Kazuki Yamamoto was staying at the headquarters, and Yoshio Shinozuka was nowhere to be seen.
"Your Excellency."
A member of the special forces team walked in and handed a piece of information to Kazuki Yamamoto: "This is the information fed back by Zhu Ziming." ”
"Oh, it's not bad."
Yamamoto's eyes lit up, and he took the paper handed over by the team members, and his tone was slightly mocking: "It seems that our spy is quite dedicated to his work." ”
He didn't expect Zhu Ziming to have news in only two days, and originally thought that it would take at least a week, after all, he was not very optimistic about this spy's ability to do things.
"Has anyone else seen this?"
Before opening, Kazuki Yamamoto asked.
Although he is still a big Zuo, his status in the army is not low, but this Shanxi First Army is stationed in Taiyuan, and Dazuo has gone a lot, plus he has been constrained by the top level recently, and even the special team has been forced to pretend to be disbanded and incorporated into Shinozuka Yoshio's guard, and now Yamamoto, even if General Shinozuka attaches great importance to it, there are many people who can interfere in his work.
For example, the major generals.
Many people blame him entirely for Hattori's death.
Therefore, Yamamoto's small life has not been comfortable recently, and all this was done by Li Yunlong, so Yamamoto is particularly concerned about Li Yunlong.
That's why he uses agents to deliver messages.
"Nope."
The team shook their heads.
"Yo Si."
Kazuki Yamamoto nodded with satisfaction, and then opened the information.
After looking at the doubts, Yamamoto Kazuki sighed in a tone:
"The incident of the attack on the military column was really done by Li Yunlong."
Speculation is speculation, but the report submitted to the higher authorities must be evidence-oriented, the military column was attacked, and it was in the territory of the First Army, and he had to show full evidence to the people at the headquarters of the North China Front.
Kazuki Yamamoto continued to look, and then his eyes narrowed:
"It's this Chen Fan who provided the information again, and the recent refugees are also this person's hand."
Looking at the name, the corners of Yamamoto's eyes jumped.
So far, this Chen Fan, even if the imperial intelligence department investigates with all his might, he has only heard of his name, not his person, and no one has ever seen him, if it weren't for the fact that those materials that appeared for no reason were real, he would have doubted whether this person existed.
"Someday, I'm going to catch you myself."
Kazuki Yamamoto gritted his teeth.
It was because of this person that his friend and German classmate Ikeda Jiuichi was killed by Li Yunlong, and his secret service team suffered heavy losses.
Moreover, compared to being robbed of the military column by Li Yunlong and killing the imperial officers, the leakage of intelligence is even more serious.
He had to find out how this man had obtained the Imperial information.
After taking a deep breath, Yamamoto continued to read the news behind.
"Li Yunlong's independent regiment actually only lost more than 600 people in this battle."
The casualty figures reported by Zhu Ziming made Yamamoto Kazuki squint.
This data was somewhat unexpected, in his prediction, Li Yunlong attacked the military column this time, and quickly annihilated a brigade and a railway squadron in the empire, and his own attrition should be 800 to 1,000.
The casualty figures are followed by the establishment of separate regiments.
Zhu Ziming provided some of what he knew, such as the weapons of the artillery company, six 82 mortars and two 92 infantry guns, and three 60 mortars in each battalion fire company, as well as Bren light machine guns equipped with anti-aircraft tripods, as well as the approximate strength of the cavalry battalion and the approximate total number of independent regiments.
Although specific details are not available for the identity of the officers of the Security Section, they can be observed at the time of training and assembly.
However, in the information given to Yamamoto Kazuki, Zhu Ziming did not mention the matter of the big mule, not that he didn't know, but that Yamamoto didn't ask, and Zhu Ziming didn't say it.
Finally, after reading all the information, Kazuki Yamamoto breathed a sigh of relief:
"With such a weapon configuration and such a sufficient supply of materials, no wonder this Li Yunlong can make such a record, no wonder he dares to fight the idea of the army."
Yamamoto's tone at this time was not much angry, but a little happy.
Now that Li Yunlong's specific strength has been known, the next step is to mobilize forces to deal with this person. And he already had an idea in his heart, who should be sent to deal with this Li Yunlong.
"I remember, the captain of the Fifth Division stationed in Jiao County, Oshima Kan Nakasa, is still in Taiyuan, right?"
Yamamoto looks at the members of the team who are used by him as a staff officer.
"Hey."
The team members bowed their heads and responded: "Since the martyrdom of Chief of Staff Miyano, Oshima Suga Nakasa and his brigade have left Jiaoxian and are currently stationed in the east of Taiyuan. ”
"Yo Xi..."
The corners of Yamamoto's mouth curled.
A brigade of the Fifth Division, an elite brigade of a permanent division with a full strength of 1,200 people, and a long-standing division that has been in actual combat for a long time, this is not comparable to the second-line division in Wendian Village and Shou County.
He believes that Oshima Suga Nakasa is also interested in dealing with Li Yunlong.
As for whether Lieutenant Admiral Shinozuka will agree with his ideas, this Yamamoto is even more confident.
