Zhang Wei led the ensign who sent things into the preparatory camp, and the soldiers who followed him to escort the cart were also pulled in by Zhang Wei, and they sent you so many things, you can't say that you don't stay and invite others to have a meal.

Pull the people who delivered the ammunition to the camp, and arrange for people to rest first.

Zhang Wei asked He Kun to count the things that were sent, and it was indeed wealthy, there were 35 boxes of 79-caliber sharp-step machine gun bullets, barge guns, 8 large boxes of 763 pistol ammunition for 20 rounds, and 10 boxes of long-handled grenades, all of which were ammunition that could be used by the preparation battalion, and five boxes of 79 bullets loaded into canvas cartridge belts were also sent.

This is for the Type 24 heavy machine gun, and the preparation battalion is now using the Soviet-style M1910 heavy machine gun, which is not the right caliber.

The 79 bullets of these heavy machine guns sent by the First Army could not be wasted, and these 79 bullets were common to the Zhongzheng rifles of the preparatory battalion, all of which were of 79 caliber, and Zhang Wei asked He Kun to disassemble the canvas bullet belt, unload the bullets in the cartridge belt, repack the boxes, and keep them for the Zhongzheng rifle.

The rifles of the reserve battalion are medium guns, 79 calibers, light machine guns, except for two Czech light machine guns seized from the rout, the rest are Soviet-style turntable machine guns, and the heavy machine guns equipped with the heavy machine gun company are also Soviet-style M1910 heavy machine guns, using M1908-type 762 bullets.

Because of its large size, the protrusion of the bottom of the bullet and other reasons, this thing was jokingly called a big butt bullet by military fans in later generations, and Zhang Wei, a military house from later generations, also heard that the ammunition of these light and heavy machine guns under his hands could not be replaced.

The first army is the national armament and the German armament, the assault column is probably the only Soviet armament unit in the entire battlefield in eastern Henan, and the ammunition for the machine gun, Zhang Wei now seems to be really a problem.

In addition to ammunition, a batch of temporary medicines and bandages needed for the battlefield were also included, and the preparation battalion also used them.

There are more provisions, there are canned meat and dried vegetables, dried fish, canned food was given more than six boxes, dried vegetables are some sun-dried bean sprouts and dried cabbage, six boxes of canned meat, this is still the amount obtained by the other troops of the assault column after taking it, this first army, really rich!

Ammunition and supplies are indeed extremely useful for the preparation battalion, Zhang Wei has been engaged in live-fire training in the past few days, and nearly half of the original ammunition reserve has been destroyed, and no one dares to do this in other units, Zhang Wei has lived for two lives, and he firmly believes in the truth that "shooters must be fed by bullets".

This is good, more than 30 boxes have been replenished at once, the preparatory battalion has become rich again, and the soldiers' tactical training is not bad.

It just so happened that someone came to send ammunition and supplies today, Zhang Wei planned to have a camp-wide dinner in the evening, first, to reward the brothers, the training of the preparatory battalion is much more difficult than other troops, it is time to give some sweetness, and secondly, a lot of newly replenished defeated soldiers, Zhang Wei plans to take this opportunity to increase cohesion, so that the new soldiers and the veterans of the preparatory battalion can enhance their feelings, and the cooperation on the battlefield is also better.

"He Kun, call the cooking team of each company, stew these canned food, as well as these dried vegetables, plus the jerky in our hands! Dinner for the whole camp in the evening! Zhang Wei said very proudly.

"Gotcha!" He Kun replied. "Camp Commander Zhang is really wealthy!" The second lieutenant of the column headquarters on the side echoed.

Zhang Wei shook his head: "The wealth is a fart, it's not all about Chief Qiu's support and the help of friendly troops, brother, you and the people you brought will have to eat more with us at night!" ”

"Definitely, definitely!" Although the second lieutenant is an organ member working in the column headquarters, there are not many opportunities for him to get involved in meat.

"By the way, brother, I haven't been there recently, do you have any inside information about future operations and deployments?"

He Kun was busy with people, and there was still gunfire on the training ground, Zhang Wei asked a question that he was extremely concerned about, what specific deployment will the assault column have next? How to play?

"Actually, there is no movement, the gang of people in the First Army, I have been inviting Chief Qiu to dinner recently, Chief Qiu has gone, I have also heard some news, and there is no movement so far, but the usage of our column is almost to cooperate with the troops of the First Army, anyway, we have to wait for orders, but this little devil, I have to wait for a while to fight."

After listening to the second lieutenant, Zhang Wei felt the same as if he didn't say it, it is estimated that the column headquarters is also black-eyed, since it is not clear from above, don't worry about it, it is true to train soldiers and lead the team well.

The training of the preparatory camp continued until half past five in the evening, during which the cooking squads of each company gathered together, unpacked all the canned beef, added the dried meat, and squatted in a pot with dried cabbage, sprinkled with seasoning, and the pot of fragrant canned dried meat stew came out of the pot.

Zhang Wei also asked the cooking class to make soup, and then boiled more than a dozen pots of boiling water, and alcohol was forbidden in the army, and there was something to drink at dinners, so he could only replace wine with water.

At about 6 o'clock in the evening, when the sky was slightly dark, the officers and men of the whole battalion who had finished the training gathered together and took their seats in company and platoon, sitting in empty ammunition boxes, and the dining tables in front of them were also made of empty ammunition boxes and wooden boards.

The table was filled with prepared meals and boiled soup, the smell of meat was overflowing, and a bonfire was lit around it.

Zhang Wei sat with the three company commanders and the second lieutenant staff officer of the column headquarters, next to the long table of the soldiers, the soldiers smelled the aroma of meat, and their eyes were shining.

"All stand up!"

The soldiers were still immersed in the food in front of them, Qiu Wei shouted loudly, called everyone out of the meal, and after hearing the order to stand up, he quickly got up and stood upright.

Zhang Wei looked at the more than 300 faces in front of him, they were the current officers and soldiers of the whole battalion, some of them had followed him all the way from Nanjing and Xuzhou, some had entered the army in Hunan, and some had recently been arrested.

At this moment, regardless of identity, in Zhang Wei's eyes, they are his own subordinates, but also his brothers, and the root of his own killing.

"Brethren! Today's training is good, we are all a family, on the public, I am your commander, battalion commander, on personal interests, I am your brother, among you, there are veterans who followed me from Nanjing, and there are also those who have just recently entered the camp. Zhang Wei slowly picked up the kettle.

"I don't care what happened before, as long as I enter the preparation camp, we are all in the same trench with bullets and sacrifices, comrades-in-arms, brothers, whether new or veteran, we all treat everyone equally, all the same."

"The big guys are all brothers, and before long, we still have to fight with the little devils, as long as we meet them, we will screw them in a ball, and I will work hard to kill them, and fight them to the death!"

"Do you understand what the battalion commander said?" Qiu Wei interjected.

"Understood!" The soldiers replied that the truth of desperately killing the enemy is naturally understood by the soldiers.

"Alcohol is forbidden in the army during the war, today we will replace wine with water, drink him, drink in a big bowl, eat meat, I will do it first!" Zhang Wei raised the kettle and poured it into the dried boiled water.

The soldiers are all rough people, and their emotions are very mobilized, Zhang Wei said something, they all picked up the boiled water in front of them, raised their heads and poured it in.

"Okay, treat these dishes in front of you as a dog's day, and eat them!" Zhang Wei shouted.

"Yes!" The soldiers sat down collectively, devouring the meat and vegetables in front of them, and the entire preparation camp was a warm scene.
