Chapter 9 There are too many pots to fit in the bowls
"This is the last time."
Where the headquarters of the 119th Division is located, the commander of the 344th Brigade put the transportation list in his hand on the table of the division headquarters, and said in a somewhat regretful tone.
"Our transport team was known by the devils, and this time the devils dispatched a large number of troops to encircle and suppress, and they can only organize large-scale transportation in the future, and it is very dangerous."
The division commander picked up the list on the table, first his eyes widened suddenly, and then he subconsciously muttered so much, and after carefully reading the data on the list several times, he said leisurely.
"The devil is not blind, let's organize such a large-scale transport team, it is impossible to hide from them, but this is the fourth trip, and the current supplies of the division headquarters are enough"
"Well, indeed" the brigade commander also nodded a fraction.
"Hehe, this time I went to meet the overseas Chinese who supported our supplies" Then the brigade commander changed the subject.
From the beginning of the 119th Division's formation of a large-scale transport team to the present, the transport team has made four trips from the independent regiment to the division headquarters to transport materials, the first two trips were all to transport grain, the third trip was mainly medicine, supplemented by weapons and ammunition, and the fourth trip was all weapons and ammunition.
And in order to meet the patriotic overseas Chinese in the rumor, the brigade commander personally went to the independent regiment to transport supplies this time, and finally got his wish.
"How?" The division commander was clearly interested.
As the saying goes, sending charcoal in the snow is the most cordial, for this excellent and good person who sent money, food, medicine, weapons, and ammunition, the division commander was full of friendship at this time, if it wasn't for him not being able to leave, he couldn't wait to rush over and worship the overseas Chinese who was in the rumor.
"Very young"
The brigade commander recalled the meeting with Luo Yun not long ago, nodding his head to express his satisfaction, and at the same time satisfying the curiosity of the division commander.
"His name is Luo Yun, he is a very young man, only 23 years old, well, a very young man, and his skills are very good, quite good"
The brigade commander's words were a little confused, but his expression was obviously very satisfied, as a soldier, this exchange naturally had some military atmosphere, so this meeting, the independent regiment, the guard company brought by the brigade commander and Luo Yun had a friendly exchange of marksmanship and martial arts.
And the ending naturally doesn't need much, of course, it ends with Luo Yun's total victory.
At first, it was just that the people under his hands hit each other with a dozen fixed targets, and exchanged a few moves with their bare hands to enhance friendship, but after seeing Luo Yun's peak human physical fitness, many soldiers of the independent regiment and the guard company also became competitive and wanted to make an appointment to fight, so the independent regiment took the opportunity to hold a grand friendly exchange.
"This time, the guys have seen the world," the brigade commander was very satisfied with the large-scale beating of his subordinates not long ago.
The most important thing to know your own shortcomings is to see people who are better than yourself, many veterans in the brigade commander's guard company and the first independent regiment have come out of the grass, after several years of dozens of actual combat, their individual combat ability is not inferior to the elite of the devil, they have a strong confidence in their own strength, especially after the recent sufficiency of weapons and ammunition, this self-confidence is out of control.
Warriors have self-confidence, which is a good thing, but it is also a bad thing, self-confidence can maximize their abilities, but if they are too self-confident, they will become frogs at the bottom of the well, and from this self-confidence will evolve into arrogance.
When the group of veterans was beaten down by Luo Yun alone, all the marksmanship and martial arts were crushed, and all the veterans became honest and began to train again.
"Huh? Young? Pretty good? The division commander didn't understand the brigade commander's emotion, he didn't understand the logic of these words.
"He is an overseas Chinese who has lived in the United States for a long time, and his family has several machine factories, and these weapons and ammunition are all produced by themselves, and the weapons and ammunition are provided free of charge without any strings attached."
"And more weapons and ammunition are being transported in the future."
The brigade commander knew the point of the division commander's inquiry and immediately answered.
"This is a real patriot, with these pillars, the Chinese nation will not die"
Hearing the brigade commander's answer, the division commander subconsciously sighed. The all-out War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression has been going on for more than half a year, and in the past six months, they have also seen many patriotic overseas Chinese join the army, and they have also received a lot of material and economic assistance from these overseas Chinese. These overseas Chinese who returned to China and joined the army all had quite high academic qualifications, and they eventually became indispensable talents in the Eighth Route Army.
"All of this material was produced by him?"
After sighing, the division commander looked at the list of supplies in his hand and suddenly asked, his tone was incredible.
"Hmm" the brigade commander nodded, and his expression was also obviously incredulous.
He understood the surprise of the division commander, according to the calculation of the amount of materials of the independent regiment, the amount of materials given by the overseas Chinese named Luo Yun had exceeded the value of 50 million US dollars, and it was difficult for him to imagine that a family could complete the material aid of this scale.
It's also too rich.
"According to Brother Luo Yun, he still has more than 150,000 tons of food and more than 1,000 tons of medical supplies waiting to be transported, and there are many more to come," the brigade commander then threw out an even more exciting news.
"150,000 tons of grain"
With such a large amount of grain, the division commander was obviously stunned. At present, they have transported 2,000 tons of grain from the independent regiment, and these grains alone can make the 119th Division very comfortable to survive this winter.
150,000 tons of grain, calculated at the minimum consumption of 2 catties of grain per person, can be consumed by 100,000 people for four years.
"All 150,000 tons of grain are prepared for us?" The division commander couldn't help but ask again, if these grains are invested in a large area of several million Rao, then they will be consumed in a few months, but if all of them are given to the Eighth Route Army, then this grain will be enough for them to support more than two years.
"Yes, give us all of them" the brigade commander nodded a fraction.
Hearing this, the division commander suddenly stood up and walked around excitedly, chattering incessantly.
"Great, great, so that the biggest problem that plagues the base area is solved"
The biggest problem in establishing a base area and building a contingent is not manpower, the Republic of China has a large number of people, and according to rough statistics, the population of the Shanxi-Chahar-Hebei base area exceeds 25 million, but the consumption of tens of thousands of people eating horses and chewing is the big problem.
Now there are less than 10,000 people on the side of the 119th Division, and the food problem has already made the division headquarters anxious; before that, the chief of staff was losing his hair every time because of the food problem, and as for the people themselves, they were living in hardship, and they could not help too much, but the time for the establishment of the base area was too short, and the time for wanting to produce grain on their own could not be connected.
"However, we can't transport it over," the brigade commander asked a huge question.
Hearing this, the division commander suddenly had a dull expression.
Yes, 150,000 tons of grain, they simply don't have enough transportation capacity to transport it. The transport team formed by the division headquarters with the strength of the whole division can only transport 1,000 tons at a time, and it takes a week to go and come and go.
150,000 tons, it will take several years to ship.
Unless the convoy can swagger down the road····· But this is a devil-occupied area, which is impossible.
