Anti-Japanese Jagged General

Chapter 972 The Credit That Falls From the Sky (First Update!)

Although Zhang Fuping, deputy director of the logistics department of the World War II zone headquarters, is still a colonel, his life is not half as good.

Because half a year ago, many officers in the war zone were connected, and they were asked to exchange drugs from Wang Ping for the little devil's command saber, and use the command saber to report to their superiors and achieve their own military merits.

Zhang Fuping suddenly became a celebrity in front of many generals in the war zone, calling them brothers and sisters.

A large number of contacts also brought a lot of benefits to Zhang Fuping.

No, good news just came out from the theater command. Under the recommendation of those generals, he was supposed to be promoted to major general.But because of the opposition of the theater chief of staff, it was ultimately unsuccessful.

The reasons for the chief of staff's opposition are also very simple.

Although I worked hard in the position of deputy director of the logistics department, I didn't make any big mistakes.However, he did not make any great achievements.

So many soldiers on the front line killed devils and made meritorious service on the battlefield, and they were not cautious.I am in charge of logistics, and I have not made an inch of merit. If I was promoted to major general rashly, it would definitely cause dissatisfaction among many soldiers.

Of course, the objection is the objection, and the chief of staff also said that as long as he can make a decent contribution, he will definitely be promoted to the rank of major general.

For a few days, Zhang Fuping stayed in the office every day, thinking about how to make meritorious service and be promoted to the rank of major general.

Just then, Wang Ping came.

"Director Zhang, what's going on... Is there something troubling..." Wang Ping suddenly appeared at the door of the office, wearing a brand new colonel's uniform.Zhang Fuping, who was frowning, was stunned for a long time before he realized it.

Wang Ping not only brought him the hope of being promoted to major general, but also brought him a lot of wealth.

Although Wang Ping belonged to the Eighth Route Army, Zhang Fuping still regarded him as a guest of honor.

Seeing that no one was paying attention outside the office, he quickly closed the door, and said, "Brother Wang, why are you here... Last time you robbed the equipment of a cavalry battalion in the war zone. People are dissatisfied with you. If you come to the theater command now, isn’t it self-inflicted? Don’t forget, you are just a colonel, and they can send you to a court-martial if they find any oily head!”

"They dare not, and they won't~" Wang Ping replied confidently.

Zhang Fuping immediately realized: "That's right, I forgot, although you are a colonel, you belong to the Eighth Route Army. Even if someone in the theater headquarters wants to retaliate against you, the Eighth Route Army headquarters must agree. It seems that I am just worrying about it!"

Then he didn't hide it, and directly expressed his troubles about not being able to be promoted to major general because he had no credit.

"Credit...that's simple, Director Zhang, I'm here today to give you credit!"

"What credit?" Zhang Fuping stared at Wang Ping closely and asked, not wanting to miss every word Wang Ping said next.

Wang Ping didn't answer right away, but asked with a smile: "I won't say what credit, but it must be enough for Director Zhang to be promoted to major general, and even let your commander look at you with admiration!"

Zhang Fuping could only forcefully suppress the excitement in his heart, try to keep himself calm, and then asked.

"Brother Wang, since that's the case, I won't ask, I trust you!"

"Also, I don't know if you came to the theater this time to receive ammunition supplies or not?"

"Neither!" Wang Ping replied with a mysterious face.

Then, without waiting for the other party to speak, he asked back: "Director Zhang, you have been in the position of director of logistics for several years, and you should be very clear about the prices of various ammunition in the arms industry... I wonder if you, Director Zhang, can reveal a thing or two. ~"

Zhang Fuping did not hide~
The price of the weapon is not a secret, even if he doesn't say it himself, Wang Ping can still find out from other sources.That being the case, of course I am willing to sell Wang Ping a favor and tell what I know in as much detail as possible.

After finishing, I asked: "Brother Wang, do you want to buy equipment for the Eighth Route Army~ But now that the Japanese have occupied all the ports, even if you have money, you can't buy equipment~ If you really need it, I can find a way to give it to you, brother." Make hundreds of guns, but the price is a little bit more expensive... Brother Wang, you should know the specific reason, no matter how many weapons you have, you will not be able to get them!"

Wang Ping quickly shook his head and replied: "Director Zhang, you are joking~ Our Eighth Route Army can't even eat enough to eat, so where is the money to buy weapons!"

"By the way, the weapons you just mentioned don't seem to have heavy artillery and tanks. The commander of the World War II zone is so rich, so it's impossible not to buy heavy artillery and tanks, right? The power is not ordinary. If there is a heavy artillery regiment's heavy artillery, On the battlefield, it only takes two rounds of volleys to easily kill an infantry brigade of devils!"

"Think~ why don't you want to!" Zhang Fuping replied without thinking~

"But, so what if you think about it! Heavy artillery is not ordinary mortars and mountain artillery. Before the devils invaded China, they were weapons and equipment that were banned from being sold to us by the West. We couldn't buy them even if we had money. Now the coastal ports are all occupied by devils. If we are in the Mainland, we can’t even buy them!”

"Director Zhang, do you know the price of a 105mm caliber heavy mountain gun in the arms market!" Wang Ping seized the opportunity and asked with an interested expression.

"In the European and American arms markets, the price is no less than 5000 U.S. dollars. Now, 9 U.S. dollar is worth [-] yuan, which is [-] yuan. Of course, this is only the price in the European and American markets. When it comes to China, the price will rise again." , I guess, without [-] yuan, Dayang will definitely not be able to get a heavy artillery!"

"With the matching shells, the price of a heavy artillery must not be less than one hundred thousand oceans!"

"Even so, there is a price but no market, and money can't buy it!"

"Our commander-in-chief wanted to build a heavy artillery regiment after he retreated from Taiyuan, which could not only strategically deter the enemy, but also strengthen his own strength, and he also had money at the time. However, he couldn't buy it after contacting many countries."

"Now there are more and more other troops in the theater. In order to ensure his position in the theater and Chongqing, the commander wants to form a heavy artillery regiment. It is still because of the channel problem that it cannot be bought, and the army has expanded over the past few years. The speed is too fast, many troops need to support themselves in the theater, and the funds in the hands of the commander are not as abundant as a few years ago, even if I want to buy it, I probably can't afford it!"

Wang Ping did not continue this topic, staring at Zhang Fuping and continued to ask: "What about the light tank? What is the price of the light tank!"

"The price of a tank is not high, especially a light tank. I bought it in Chongqing back then. A light tank costs about 1 yuan, which looks like more than [-] dollars!"

Wang Ping's eyes lit up, and then a very relaxed smile appeared on his face.

The price that Zhang Fuping said was about the same as his estimate, and Zhang Fuping also inadvertently revealed the current thinking of the theater command, which made Wang Ping full of confidence in the next negotiation!
