Xiao Zhou shop.

It is a typical small northern village, surrounded by mountains and with remote terrain.

Dozens of low, mud-made houses are scattered in a mountain col, and the village is surrounded by cultivated fields.

It was 8 o'clock in the evening, and the village was silent, with only a few wisps of cooking smoke rising from the village in the crooked moonlight.

Luo Yun stood at the corner of a mountain road, looking at the boxes piled up like a mountain under his feet, touching his chin and thinking.

20 boxes of grenades weighed more than 300 kg and required 3 horses.

400 rounds of 60 mortar shells 700 kg, 7 horses were required.

60 mortars 2 including spare barrels and shells weighed 600 kg, this packing wooden box is relatively large, so 7 horses are needed.

A total of 22 horses were captured, so there were still 6 horses empty.

Counting the weight of the materials, Luo Yun felt that he should add more.

Xiaozhoudian is only about 20 kilometers away from the place where the 733rd Regiment is stationed, and there is no problem in walking on his legs at this distance, so the horses can all be used to load supplies.

【Take out 10 cases of Fenjiu】

[Take out 10 boxes of Camel brand cigarettes]

[Take out 10 hardcover shell guns]

【Take out 6 boxes of oversized canned beef】

Well, now all the horses are full.

Looking at the new materials he took out, Luo Yun was very satisfied. Ten boxes of Fenjiu can be just loaded with one horse, and the cigarettes are not heavy, but the cardboard box is large, and one and a half horses are needed, and the shell gun box is not large, and half a horse can be fitted.

As for this oversized canned beef, looking at the canned beef that was the size of a vat filled with lube, he felt the corners of his mouth cramp a little.

Isn't this can a bit too big!

Such a can of beef, weighing 55 kilograms, has an aluminum shell, containing 40 kilograms of pure beef and 10 kilograms of butter.

Moreover, there is no way to improve the taste of this canned beef, so even if he upgrades to level 3 now, if this kind of canned beef is prescribed, is it time to replace it with a water tank?

It is precisely because of this weight that a horse can only hold 2 cans of beef.

Thinking about it, Luo Yun seemed to feel as if he had forgotten something, and after touching his chin and thinking for a while, he clicked on the panel again, and then took out all the canned beef.

【Take out 14 cans of super large can of beef】

[Take out the individual first aid kit enhanced version 2 packs]

The road here is also relatively smooth, there are fifteen people on Tang Ming's side, and it shouldn't be a problem to walk twenty kilometers with a tank on one person, right?

Fifty-five kilograms, which is the weight of a person, carrying a person on his back for twenty kilometers, thinking about it, Luo Yun's smile gradually became perverted...

As for this enhanced version of the first aid kit, from the outside, it should be a bag, a schoolbag bag, but it is not heavy, only about ten kilograms, and there is a strap, which is easy to carry.

······

At half past nine o'clock in the night, Tang Ming and the others led the horse to the place where Luo Yun stacked his belongings, and said hello, they looked at the pile of wooden boxes in front of them, and after carefully observing them a few times, everyone's eyes began to flash.

The beautifully lacquered wooden packaging is absolutely extraordinary from the outside, and the English language on it, which symbolizes the forced style of the era, adds to the value of these wooden boxes.

Although they didn't know what was in it, they knew from the time they reheated the food that the Luo Yun brothers had a lot of good things in their hands.

But Tang Ming and Erzhuzi are different, they really know each other.

"This is an American-made 60 mortar"

"Oh my God, there should be 500 shells in so many shell boxes, and all of them are foreign."

"Brother Luo Yun, you bought this from the United States? The road is amazing" Tang Ming, as the commander of the artillery company, also happened to know this in English on the wooden box, so he was really stunned.

It is not difficult to get mortars in China, although it is almost useless for several domestic arsenals to produce barrel guns, but it is very easy to make mortars with simple technology.

Import a seamless steel pipe (which cannot be produced in China), cut the steel pipe into a barrel style, and then use a domestic low-quality metal self-made base, plus a simple sighting device, a simple mortar is successfully made, that is, the accuracy and barrel life are not as good as foreign goods, but at least it can be used.

As for buying foreign goods directly, if China and Japan had spent a little more money before the war, but now, under the blockade of the Japanese, it is absolutely extraordinary to be able to get foreign goods.

As for foreign-made artillery shells, it is even more difficult.

Highly skilled and with a deep background.

As a result, Luo Yun once again added a sense of mystery in Tang Ming's heart.

Moreover, he remembered that Brother Luo Yun said that this batch of goods was to be shipped to Brother Nuo, and he also wanted to take refuge in Brother Nuo, that is.

He had a chance to try foreign artillery and foreign shells?

Because the mortar has a short firing range and low chamber pressure, although there is a large difference in quality between domestic and imported mortars, the difference between the two guns can only be revealed after a long period of use, and the shells are different.

The explosion was an immediate effect.

In the last war, he was fortunate enough to fire a few imported artillery shells, and the power, the smoke from the explosion, and the shrapnel killed and injured him, completely throwing off the domestic artillery shells a few streets.

If you use professional words, that is, the cast iron shell of the domestic artillery shell is not up to standard, not only the thickness leads to insufficient charge, but also the low processing accuracy and irregular shape lead to the barrel leakage and reduce the range, and more seriously, the generation of shrapnel is also much worse than that of foreign countries.

And here are more than five hundred imported shells.

Thinking of this, he felt that his hands were already itching.

And as his subordinates, they naturally thought of this, and they were all gearing up, and their expressions were eager to be taken out immediately and run a few times.

"I have an arsenal abroad, although it produces not aircraft heavy artillery, but it is still very simple to get some mortars, grenades and guns or something, and I may have to work hard for you to help deliver the goods in the future" Seeing the excited expressions of everyone, Luo Yun further improved his story.

"Foreign arsenals? Help with the delivery of goods? ”

Hearing this, everyone only felt that the future life was bright for a while, so they volunteered.

"It's okay, if you want to say that the others don't have it, it's just a lot of strength, Brother Luo Yun, you're welcome, just call it"

Half an hour later, the wooden crates on the ground had all been loaded with horses and tied tightly with ropes.

However, there are still 14 barrels left on the ground.

Looking at the remaining buckets, everyone was eager to try, but two of them had stiff faces.

Luo Yun took out a total of 20 cans of canned beef, of which 6 cans were already loaded on horseback, and the two stiff-faced people were the people who loaded and unloaded the cans just now.

The two first glanced at each other, then glanced at the surrounding horses, and when they saw that all the horses were full, the two gritted their teeth, and then silently took a step back.
