Bourne: Command and Conquer

Chapter 1415, enough ammunition

"Sichuan Army? What's wrong with the Sichuan Army?"

"They are going to the front line in Xuzhou, but there is a big commotion because of supply problems..."

"What supplies? Weapons and ammunition?"

"Yes."

Hu Zongnan was very distressed.

Please ask Zhang Yong to go inside. Sit tight. Let’s talk about them one by one.

After reorganization, the Sichuan Army still has more than a dozen divisions. About 150,000 people.

In the past, before the war broke out, Chiang Kai-shek disliked him in various ways.

Now, with the disastrous defeat on the Songhu battlefield, the fall of Jinling, and the heavy losses suffered by Huangpu's elite lineage, he felt that the Sichuan army was a favorite again.

The main reason is that the Sichuan Army is relatively obedient, has many internal hills, has average cohesion, and is prone to disintegration.

Look at the Shanxi, Yunnan, and Guangxi clans. They are all independent kingdoms.

Part of the Sichuan army was transferred to the Jiangnan battlefield.

Part of the Sichuan army was transferred to the Xuzhou battlefield.

Among them, those who were transferred to the Xuzhou battlefield walked to Xi'an and then took a train to the front line.

In China at that time, there was an east-west railway called the Longhai Railway.

It is the most important transportation artery in central China.

Not one.

It connects Lanzhou, Tianshui, Baoji, Xi'an, Luoyang, Kaifeng, Xuzhou, Haizhou (Lianyungang) and other important cities.

At present, various signs indicate that the Japanese invaders intend to occupy Xuzhou.

Xuzhou has been a strategic location in the Central Plains since ancient times. Throughout the ages, there have been countless wars.

The Japanese invaders have already occupied Pingjin, Songhu, Jinling and other places. Once Xuzhou is captured, it will be equivalent to opening up a direct connection between the two battlefields.

By then, the Japanese invaders could more easily mobilize along the Jinpu Railway.

Of course, Chiang Kai-shek could not let the Japanese invaders succeed. So Li and Bai from the Gui clan were assigned to take charge of the Central Plains battlefield.

Being able to get Lao Jiang to allow his opponents to take command shows that he still recognizes the abilities of Li and Bai.

In fact, Li and Bai are indeed capable.

Simply talking about fighting, Xiao Zhuge is indeed better than others.

At present, Chiang Kai-shek is trying every means to send more troops to the battlefield in Xuzhou. Among them, there are some Sichuan Army and Yunnan Army.

The specific number of the Sichuan Army is unknown. The Yunnan Army should be the 60th Army.

As we all know, the Sichuan army's equipment is very poor. Before going to the battlefield, if you don't change your clothes, it's almost a day trip.

At this moment, Chiang Kai-shek has something to ask for. So very generous. Publicly promised to redress the Sichuan army in Xi'an.

result…

Hu Zongnan was dumbfounded.

He has no extra weapons and ammunition at all!

There are several divisions of Sichuan troops! Tens of thousands of people! Where could he get so many weapons and ammunition?

"Actually, it's Jiang Dingwen's business. He pushed it to me."

"Jiang Dingwen?"

"Yes. He is the camp director. He should be in charge. What does it have to do with our Office of Appeasement?"

"oh…"

Zhang Yong understood.

The two are playing football. Referring to each other.

Hu Zongnan, Jiang Dingwen, and Tang Enbo are all very cunning.

It is absolutely impossible for them to take out weapons and ammunition from their own hands to redress the Sichuan army.

No one understands the importance of the military better than the three of them.

"Then you come to me..."

"Shaolong, we all know that you have great magical powers. How about you think of a way to deal with it first..."

"Looking for me?"

"Yes. Please. Really. Otherwise, they will bother me every day..."

"Is there a commission order?"

"have."

"show me."

"good."

Hu Zongnan immediately sent someone to get the warrant.

Zhang Yong took it. That's right. It is indeed Chiang Kai-shek's handwriting. Promise to change the uniforms of the Sichuan army.

He is called "Brother Jinfan" when he raises his head. Not impressed.

"This is…"

"Xiong Kewu."

"It turns out it was him..."

Zhang Yong was thoughtful.

One of the bosses of the Sichuan Army. Very senior.

It is said that he participated in the Huanghuagang Uprising. In the future, he participated in all kinds of revolutions.

I never got along well with Chiang Kai-shek. This time he came forward to find Hu Zongnan. No wonder Hu Zongnan is so distressed.

Frankly speaking, Hu Zongnan is really the little brother in front of these old guys.

Even Jiang Dingwen is a junior among juniors.

The key is that Xiong Kewu has Chiang Kai-shek's handwriting. It was promised by Lao Jiang himself.

If you fail to honor your promise, you will be publicly admitting that Chiang Kai-shek has not kept his promise. Maybe, the other party will publicize it one day.

Then…

There is definitely nothing wrong with commissioning. It's all the people below who are wrong.

"Do you have a list?"

"have."

Hu Zongnan sent someone to get the list again.

Zhang Yong took it. Browse through it.

Good guy, Chiang Kai-shek was indeed very generous when he needed help!

The list was drawn up by the Ministry of Military Affairs. Zhang Yong deeply suspected that this kind of list was simply a blank check. The Ministry of Military Affairs had no intention of honoring it.

Apart from anything else, how could Xi'an be able to get 15 million rounds of bullets?

Put the list away. Press the oracle on the list.

Thoughtful.

"Shao Long..."

"It's not completely impossible..."

"Shaolong, we are brothers, you must help me..."

"It's okay to help you, but..."

"I understand. I understand."

Hu Zongnan clapped his hands. Immediately someone came in holding a brocade box.

He took it. Put it gently in front of Zhang Yong. He patted it knowingly.

"You misunderstood..."

"No misunderstanding. No misunderstanding. I understand. I understand."

"Well…"

"Shaolong, let's be clear. I will pay half of the money, and Jiang Dingwen will pay half."

"How embarrassing..."

"Shaolong, if you can help us solve this trouble, we will give you another hundred thousand later. You will never break your promise."

"Well…"

Zhang Yong silently opened the brocade box a crack.

There are banknotes inside. There is HSBC. There is also Citibank. It is estimated that there are 100,000 oceans.

I was secretly surprised. There are actually 100,000 oceans!

When did these two guys get so willing?

Is there really no other way?

Would you rather lose money and eliminate disaster?

Probably.

Both of them are particularly sensitive to the current situation.

Money is gone, you can make it again. But if the army is gone, it will be troublesome.

As long as you have an army, a territory, weapons and ammunition, and an ocean of 100,000 yuan, it is a piece of cake.

But it doesn’t work the other way around.

At this moment, even if you have 100,000 yuan, you can't buy many weapons and ammunition.

Once the war breaks out, the most precious things are weapons and ammunition. Even more precious than food.

As long as you have a gun in your hand, you can grab food.

Even if there are no soldiers, you can catch them.

The premise is that you have a gun in your hand!

Therefore, no matter what, it is impossible for them to provide weapons and ammunition to support the Sichuan army.

Would rather give money to Zhang Yong. Let Zhang Yong come forward to deal with Xiong Kewu.

"Is there really nothing we can do?"

"Really. Otherwise, we can't trouble you!"

"Does Jiang Dingwen admit his account?"

"Admit it! You must admit it! He wants to admit it! Otherwise, everything related to it will belong to him! He will have to go home and farm tomorrow!"

"good."

Zhang Yong stretched out his hand to hold down the brocade box.

Collect money.

work.

Even if you don't charge money, you still have to help the Sichuan army replenish weapons and ammunition.

However, since there are two big guys taking the initiative to send money to the door, of course they will not refuse them.

The more of this kind of thing, the better.

The radar map showed that someone was approaching from outside.

Immediately, someone hurried in and saw Zhang Yong there, but stopped talking.

"What's the matter? Tell me."

"Report, Commissioner Bear is here again..."

"Invite him in."

"yes."

Hu Zongnan seemed to have hardened his temper a lot.

Maybe it was because Zhang Yong was present.

After a while, a burly old man in a long gown came in.

Not in uniform. However, at first glance, he is from a military background. No matter his actions or behavior, he has obvious military marks.

Zhang Yong stood up.

I am a junior. Etiquette still needs to be sufficient.

What's more, the other party's demands are completely reasonable. How can you go to the front line without weapons and ammunition?

The Sichuan Army is so active in going to the front line, so of course it must do everything possible to help them solve their difficulties.

You can fight to the death.

But you must not die because you run out of ammunition and food.

Oh, Zhang Yong will never be in charge of food. However, after all the bombs were played, it was because Zhang Yong did not do well enough.

In other words, the system is not powerful. They actually couldn't even provide enough ammunition. That's a slap in the face. It’s okay to not want such a **** system!

"Bear…"

"Get away!"

Before Hu Zongnan could finish speaking, he was sprayed.

Poor the director of the Xi'an Appeasement Office, he didn't dare to speak at all. I had to lower my head.

The other party's demands are completely reasonable. However, he couldn't be satisfied. He didn't dare to refute. The only option is to lower your head and be a coward.

Zhang Yong was secretly amused.

Suddenly I felt that 200,000 yuan was missing.

In the current situation, Hu Zongnan and Jiang Dingwen are willing to give even 300,000 yuan.

"Sir Hu, go ahead and do your work first."

"good."

"General Xiong, please sit down. Let's sit down and talk." "Zhang Yong, I don't want to talk nonsense with you! Let me ask you, how to deal with the change of uniforms of the troops?"

"Enough ammunition."

"What's the meaning?"

"The ammunition tube is enough. If the weapon is not enough, use ammunition to make up for it."

"That's what you said."

"Of course. The commission arranged for me to fly from Lanzhou to Xi'an to resolve this matter."

Zhang Yong said slowly.

Help Lao Jiang put some money on his face. It's really hard for him now.

In order to assist the Soviet Union, he humbly ran to Lanzhou early in the morning. I don’t know how the negotiations went.

People are very complicated. meritorious service. Yes. At this time, only Chiang Kai-shek can hold up this mess.

If Chiang Kai-shek falls, the situation will only get worse.

Qi Jiuding also made it clear that at this juncture, they did not want Chiang Kai-shek to fall.

The blood feud of the past can be put aside temporarily. Because now it is a matter of national survival.

"Get out!"

Xiong Kewu got angry at Hu Zongnan.

Obviously, he has great opinions on Hu Zongnan.

I guess he would also get angry when he met Jiang Dingwen.

"I'm leaving."

"I'm leaving."

Hu Zongnan fled immediately.

Zhang Yong was calm and composed. Make a gesture of invitation.

I have never seen such strong winds and waves.

It's all little things.

"It would be a shame not to eat the food that has just been served."

"I don't want to eat! I just want weapons and ammunition!"

"Then wait for me for five minutes."

"good."

Xiong Kewu stood like this.

Zhang Yong quickly grabbed some food. Barely full.

"Let's go!"

"Where to go?"

"TRAIN STATION."

"do what?"

"The military column transporting weapons and ammunition is about to arrive."

"Are you serious?"

"General Xiong, do I, Zhang, need to lie to you?"

"you…"

"Let's go!"

Zhang Yong said calmly.

The two walked out of the Office of Appeasement. Zhang Yong stopped again.

"Why don't you leave?"

"General Xiong, please mobilize a battalion of soldiers."

"Now?"

"Yes. Order them to the train station."

"do what?"

"Of course it's to take over the military column. Aren't you worried that the military column may be intercepted by others?"

"That won't work!"

Xiong Kewu became anxious when he heard this.

That was the military column that delivered weapons and ammunition to the Sichuan Army. How can other people cut off Hu?

However, Zhang Yong's words reminded him. If you don't arrange troops to garrison the train station immediately, the military column will really be intercepted by others.

At the moment, what the various forces are most jealous of and what they are robbing the most are weapons and ammunition, aren't they?

Hu Zongnan and Jiang Dingwen are two local gangsters in Xi'an.

If there is any benefit, they will definitely get involved.

"I'll adjust immediately..."

"No, I'll send a group over immediately."

Xiong Kewu changed his mind.

I feel like no camp is safe.

There are only three to four hundred people in a battalion. The deterrent effect is completely insufficient.

Must be a group.

There are more than a thousand people in one group. Only then can you control the train station.

There is a gangster there, and even if the other party wants to cut off Hu, they have to think about it first.

"very good."

Zhang Yong nodded.

He actually also wants a group.

Otherwise, there is no guarantee that Hu Zongnan and Jiang Dingwen would have any wrong ideas.

It is said that the biggest opponent of the Japanese Army Red Deer is the Navy Red Deer. vice versa. The two fight against each other, which greatly consumes their combat effectiveness.

In fact, is this not the case within the national army?

The conflicts, fights, and struggles between each other also consume a lot of fighting power!

If the national army could be like the Red Party, marching in unison, regardless of gains and losses, and working together, how could it possibly suffer a series of disastrous defeats?

"Somebody come!"

"arrive!"

Xiong Kewu arranged for personnel to mobilize troops.

His attitude towards Zhang Yong is also a little better. I believe this is not a scam.

All the soldiers from a regiment have been transferred. If it is finally found to be a scam, then Zhang Yong will really not be able to get off the stage.

Get in the car.

Go to the train station.

Zhang Yong habitually closed his eyes to rest.

The system now learns new skills.

Learned to use military trains to deliver goods. Just thirty wagons.

One wagon weighs thirty tons. Thirty wagons are 900 tons. Compared to shipping, it is still a bit less.

But, don't rush, take your time.

One military column is not enough, you can have two or three columns...

The number of weapons is indeed insufficient. But there is definitely enough ammunition. Includes bullets and shells.

Arrive at the train station.

The troops transferred by Xiong Kewu have not arrived yet.

So wait.

Half an hour later, a regiment of Sichuan troops finally arrived.

Also arriving with the Sichuan army was a battalion of Hu Zongnan's army. The leader was a colonel.

Obviously, Hu Zongnan was very worried about the mobilization of the Sichuan army. So a battalion was arranged for surveillance.

This Hu Zongnan. Making knitting!

Deliberately creating internal tension?

"Go back!" Zhang Yong waved his hand impatiently.

"Sir..." The colonel hesitated. Then retreat with the troops.

He knew Zhang Yong.

I know Zhang Yong has a very bad temper.

Zhang Yong raised his eyebrows.

The colonel hurriedly left with his troops.

Oops…

The Commissioner is going to go crazy...

"Come in!"

"good."

Zhang Yong turned around and entered the train station.

Soon, the Sichuan army temporarily took control of the train station.

One minute…

Two minutes…

"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu"

"Uh huh..."

A loud whistle sounded.

Zhang Yong stretched his neck. Looking at the slowly approaching military column.

Good guy, it’s really a military line!

The momentum feels stronger than that of a transport ship.

"This is it?" Xiong Kewu was full of expectations.

"Yes." Zhang Yong nodded.

The military column slowly stopped.

There is no end in sight.

Thirty carriages!

I don’t know how the system is arranged.

magic.

"Are they all munitions?"

Xiong Kewu was obviously shocked. So many carriages?

It would be a bit scary if they were all weapons!

"There are not many weapons. Mainly ammunition." Zhang Yong said slowly.

"How much?" Xiong Kewu asked subconsciously.

"I don't know exactly how many. It's a lot more than you want."

"You mean, more than 15 million..."

"It must be more than that!"

"this…"

"General Xiong, I must remind you that only you can know this matter yourself, don't tell anyone."

"What's the meaning?"

"Don't tell anyone how many weapons and ammunition there are on the military train. Make it a confusing account."

"Why?"

"Don't ask why. Just send a telegram to thank the commission."

"Okay. I promise you."

"If you don't have enough weapons, you can trade ammunition with Xiao Zhuge and the others. There is no shortage of weapons in the Gui family. With a little bit of coordination, you will have the weapons of your Sichuan army."

"Let me take a look first."

"please."

Zhang Yong waved his hand.

Just look. See enough. See it until you believe it.

Xiong Kewu got in the car and randomly selected an ammunition box. Pry open. There were bright yellow bullets inside.

7.92mm Mauser rifle cartridge. Excellent quality.

A box contains 1200 rounds of ammunition. There are at least several thousand boxes in such a large carriage.

In other words, just one carriage contains millions of rounds of ammunition!

surprise.

Turning to look at Zhang Yong.

Zhang Yong said calmly: "I said, there are not enough weapons but enough ammunition!"
