Rise from the sword

Chapter 531 Depressed Uncle Sam!with new weapons!

"The fuel for the Japanese was provided by those guerrillas?"

Chongqing | Suburbs.

Inside a western-style building guarded by two American soldiers outside the gate.

Major General Wei Demei, a general of the United States Army and about to be the Chief of Staff of the Republic of China Theater, had a sharp glint in his eyes when he heard the news from the domestic intelligence department.

In recent months, the Japanese fleet has dispatched several times more frequently than before, which has caused a lot of trouble for the navy. Many naval battles have suffered setbacks and even partial defeats as a result.

shocked the country.

The Japanese's poor fuel reserves are absolutely impossible to support such a large-scale dispatch.

Although the Japanese acquired the oil fields in the Sumatra region, the oil fields were destroyed before they were occupied. Without imported machinery and equipment, production could not be resumed in a few years, and there was also a lack of refining facilities to refine on-site.

With the blockade of submarines, the Japanese simply do not have the ability to transport fuel back to the country on a large scale.

But the Japanese still dispatched the fleet with a high frequency.

This shows that the Japanese have a new fuel channel that the United States does not yet know.

The intelligence department launched an intensive investigation immediately.

However, after spending a lot of manpower and material resources to carry out investigations, no results have been obtained. During this period, the Japanese fleet was still frequently dispatched, and the scale was getting bigger and bigger, which caused a lot of trouble for the navy.

It wasn't until the group of guerrillas provided Army Aviation with [-] tons of aviation fuel and [-] tons of bombs that they turned their attention to the Republic of China.

Do not check, I don’t know, I’m scared.

This investigation not only confirmed that the Japanese fuel was provided by the other party, but finally the Americans knew that the Japanese had obtained at least 75 tons of fuel from this channel.

"More than 75 tons?"

"At least?"

Wedemeyer rubbed his forehead.

Before the war, the Japanese national fuel reserves were only 300 million tons.

75 tons, so much fuel is enough to dispatch the entire fleet of the Japanese several times. No wonder that although the navy is still winning, it is not as smooth as before. It turns out that is the case.

"Where did they get so much fuel?"

Wedemeyer asked subconsciously.

outrageous.

75 tons, until now, the number of countries in the world that can produce it can be counted on one hand. As for the countries that are not under the sight of the United States, there is no such thing, and it is impossible.

"Currently, we only found out that the fuel flowed out of the base of the independent regiment, and it was provided by Chen Fan, but there is no further information."

The reporting staff officer bowed his head and answered.

The joint investigation of Chen Fan by the intelligence agencies of the three countries has already started, and it has been started for a week, but what is known so far is only that Chen Fan is a man, contacted Li Yunlong, first appeared in Cangyun Ridge, and then disappeared.

Including this guy's age, appearance, nationality, etc., I didn't investigate it clearly.

"But how did hundreds of thousands of tons of fuel get transported in?"

Wedemeyer still couldn't figure it out.

And it is puzzling.

The southeast coast is the territory of the Japanese, and it is impossible for materials to enter from here. There are only a few winding roads in the north, without such a large traffic volume, and it is impossible to leave the eyeliner of the Three Kingdoms anywhere. There are no other routes.

As for air transportation, let's not mention the feasibility.

The air route from India to the location of the preserved fruit, that is, the hump route, with the support of the United States, has only transported less than 50 tons of materials in such a long time.

"There is no further information at this time."

The staff officer replied unchanged.

"Have you negotiated with them?"

Wedemeyer changed the subject.

At present, the two sides are regarded as superficial allies, and giving fuel to the Japanese is an enemy. With evidence, they can go directly to the door.

"We have negotiated."

The staff officer continued.

"How did they reply?"

Wedemeyer was a little curious.

More than 75 tons of fuel oil, which is obviously collaborating with the enemy, unless you want to directly tear your face, otherwise the other party.

"they said."

When the staff officer said this, he paused for a while:
"They're aware of this and have launched an investigation."

The staff officer paused again before continuing:
"They also said that after investigation, there were indeed some people who resold fuel oil, but it was only the individual behavior of local troops, which did not conform to the overall sexual behavior we said, and the number was very small."

"In the end, they said they had severely punished the resellers."

"Local troops?"

"Small number?"

The corner of Weidemei's eyes twitched, he was so angry that he almost jumped up.

Independence Corps.

A team equipped with hundreds of tanks, hundreds of cannons, dozens of planes, nearly [-] troops, unified light weapons, comparable in strength to the five army divisions of the United States, is this still a local army?

then.

Reselling more than 70 tons of fuel oil in a few months, is this a small amount?Without the permission of the highest level of the army, how can so much fuel be able to escape?
"These yellow monkeys."

"Yellow monkey."

Thinking about it, Wei Demei became more and more angry, and the more he thought about it, the more angry he became.

"General, in terms of organization, this independent regiment is indeed a local force."

The staff officer looked at the furious Wedemeyer, and suddenly interjected.

"I want···"

He opened his mouth, but in the end Weidemei couldn't say any harsh words.

After thinking about it carefully, he found that he really couldn't do anything about this group of people for a while.

The business of extended-range artillery shells has been completed, and the trained pilots have returned to the army. They don’t need anything from the United States, and the two sides have no direct contact, and the other party is indeed a local army.

On the contrary, the bomber fleet preparing to bomb Japan needs supplies from the other party.

"correct."

The staff finally added:

"All they sold to the Japanese was heavy oil."

"It's all heavy oil."

Weidemei rubbed his forehead:

"In other words, this group of people, while providing us with aviation fuel, bombed the Japanese mainland, and at the same time provided the Japanese with a large amount of heavy fuel, allowing the Japanese navy to fight against us."

"Amazing."

At the end, Weidemei's expression returned to calm, and his tone was playful.

He is now the chief of staff of the Republic of China theater, responsible for the affairs of the Republic of China, and can directly affect the relationship between China and the United States. When the war is over, he may become the ambassador to China. There is still a long time in the future, and he has plenty of time to play slowly with the other party.

The staff officer bowed his head and remained silent.

As a senior staff officer, he is very clear that the United States also did this trick a few years ago.

······
"Has Wedemeyer become chief of staff?"

In Ping'an County, Li Yunlong got such news from Zhao Gang, which made Li Yunlong frown:
"This old boy is not a good thing."

"Yes, this person is really not a good thing."

Zhao Gang nodded.

Compared with Stilwell, Wedemeyer is a real reactionary thing. He often opposes the army and hinders the development of the army. Now that he is the chief of staff, it is not good for him.

but!

"Hey hey..."

Li Yunlong's signature smile:
"We're not afraid of him now."

The annihilation operation of the first army is imminent, the troops are ready, the supplies are ready, and the order will be issued.When the first army is completely wiped out, plus the more than 2 devils in the Mongolian Army, there will be 12 devils.

Brother Chen will support all the equipment of the six super-large factories, all ancillary facilities, a full set of technical drawings, and [-] master craftsmen.

Focus!
It is a super-large factory, plus ancillary facilities, and a full set of technical drawings.

In fact, it is equivalent to a super large factory, a dozen large factories, dozens of small factories, and a complete factory chain.Just like the previous steel factory, it also has a lot of auxiliary factories and equipment such as rolling mills and steel pipe factories.

The master chef makes up for the lack of high-end technical talents.

Six, plus the previous steel plant, equals a set of basic industrial facilities and a foundation for self-improvement of technology.

Then why are you afraid of the United States?
"really."

Zhao Gang smiled and nodded.

Thinking of the upcoming six super-large factories and [-] master craftsmen, Political Commissar Zhao couldn't wait.

"Today there is a new weapon coming out of the machinery factory, let's go and have a look."

Li Yunlong changed the subject.

"Come on, let's go have a look."

Zhao Gang is a little free today. After the master adjusted the management system of the construction team, not only the efficiency has been greatly increased, but his work has also been reduced a lot.

The group immediately came to Zhaojiayu Machinery Factory.

Compared with a year ago, this place has changed a lot.

The gravel road turned into a concrete road, and the narrow single-lane became a wide six-lane. Some mountains on both sides of the road were dug up, and new reinforced concrete buildings rose one after another.

It's like a road town nestled in the mountains.

At the end of the road, there is a large flat land, where the most advanced factory in the entire base is located, Zhaojiayu Machinery Factory, which is also the most advanced machinery factory in Asia, and there is none.

Even, maybe some technologies are number one in the world.

"Leader, political commissar."

Seeing Zhao Gang and Li Yunlong approaching, the person in charge came to meet them.

"How about the new weapon?"

Li Yunlong didn't talk too much, and went straight to the point.

"It has been designed long ago, and they are all mature weapons. We are only responsible for the integration. After the shooting range and simulated actual combat tests, the combat effect is very good, and it can greatly improve the front-line support firepower."

The person in charge is all smiles:
"Moreover, as before, the new weapons are all designed and manufactured by our own technicians, without relying on the support of the master."

"good."

Zhao Gang nodded in satisfaction.

While everyone was talking, they came to a runway behind the machinery factory.

At this time, three transport planes were parked on the runway.
