But no matter what, they had to let Deng Dongping and them contact this American, and throw this problem to the other party, and let the other party help solve it.

I don't have the strength to eat all of this batch of weapons, so it's okay to buy some selectively.

He first decided to buy an improved version of the M2A4 light tank, which was actually the M3 light tank, which took measures such as increasing the thickness of the armor, installing inducing wheels in the action part, and improving anti-aircraft weapons on the basis of the riveted structure of armor plates. The front and side armor plates of the tank hull were vertical. The main armament is one 37mm M4 gun, and the secondary armament is five 7.62mm Browning M1918A4 machine guns: one on the right side of the gun, one on the right side of the front of the hull, two in the machine gun mounts on both sides of the hull, and one on the top of the turret. There is 1 small conning tower on top of the turret. This tank was finalized in July 4o, and it stands to reason that this American arms dealer Johnson should not have this tank so quickly, but since people dare to put it on the list, it means that there is such equipment, and as for how it came about, it is not their own business. Compared with the Japanese army's Type 94 light tank, this light tank is really one in the sky and one on the ground. The main armament of this light tank, nicknamed the Bean Chariot, is a 7.7mm heavy machine gun and a 37mm caliber gun, and the armor is as thin as a cicada's wings, which is no match for the M3 light tank in any respect. Sun Yumin scruples that there are too many machine guns on this tank car, although its subsequent improved version cancels the machine guns on both sides, but it is also a demon that consumes bullets, and the bullets of this machine gun and the 7.92mm Mauser rifle cartridge of the national army cannot be used universally, that is to say, if you buy this tank car or more, you also need to buy bullets for a long time, because there is no bullet of this caliber produced in China at all.

As for the M3Genera 1/1EE (Grant/Lee) medium tank on the list, Sun Yumin does not plan to buy more, and his initial idea is to buy up to five. The reason is simple, the M3 Grant/Lee medium tank has quite strong firepower and good mobility, but the protection is relatively poor, which is manifested in the high posture, thin armor, riveted hull, etc. Another outstanding feature is that there are six crew members in the car, plus two artillery guns, which makes it look very crowded. Two guns were used, which were divided into two levels, which was not convenient for the commander to command and quickly fire. So in 1942, when the M4 Sherman medium tank was introduced, it was quickly phased out.

As for artillery, Sun Yumin does not have the financial resources to buy self-propelled artillery of the US army for the time being, and he does not want to buy even the vehicle-mounted 1O5mm and 155mm caliber M1 howitzers, although he knows that these two guns performed better in World War II, but there is no way, Sun Yumin does not have so many trucks, let alone so much money to purchase the shells it needs to consume. Sun Yumin is interested in the 75 mm M1 mountain gun and the 1O5 mm M3 howitzer, these two guns, like the M1 howitzer, played a huge role in World War II, and can be hauled by mules and horses, which is what Sun Yumin is most interested in.

As for the Browning 1918A2 machine gun, Sun Yumin didn't want to buy it, because the performance of the Czech model in World War II was no less than that of the American army's machine gun, and the most important point was that the Czech machine gun was the same as the Chinese rifle, the universal 7.92mm Mauser rifle cartridge, and he didn't want his combat troops to use multiple bullets.

There are also the coveted M1 Garand semi-automatic rifle and M1 Garand fully automatic rifle that Sun Yumin coveted. Whether it is the official rifle used by the national army now or the 38 big cover rifle used by the devils, it is completely incomparable with it. If Sun Yumin had enough financial resources, he would not hesitate to buy enough M1 for all the troops of the Twelfth Army, but unfortunately he didn't have it, so he could only be greedy.

There is also the Thomson submachine gun, which is also a submachine gun with better performance than MP38 and MP4O, but again, Sun Yumin does not plan to buy it, for the same reason, there is no money. He had to make sure that he could buy the MP3 light tank, the 75mm M1 mountain gun, and the 1O5mm M3 howitzer, and if he had more money left, he would consider buying a gun, and his choice was naturally the M1 Garand rifle.

Looking at Sun Yumin's frowning brows, Zhanshutang asked with concern: "Yumin, what are you anxious about." He listened to all of Tang Chunhong's report and saw his excitement, but Sun Yumin's anxiety immediately made him puzzled.

"Brother Zhan," although Zhan Shutang was his deputy, Sun Yumin still called him a big brother, and he replied: "You also know, I sent Chief of Staff Deng and Qian into Shanghai, and I wanted to buy a batch of weapons and equipment back, and they also found sellers, but I was worried that the money they brought was not enough, and I was worried that they wouldn't be able to ship it back if they bought it, so I ......."

Looking at Sun Yumin's anxious look, Zhanshutang laughed: "I thought that my Yumin brother was a character who never made any worries and dared to use his hands to top the top when the sky fell, but I didn't expect that he would bend his waist for five buckets of rice." ”

"Brother Zhan, don't laugh at me, Sun is not a god, he is also an ordinary man." Sun Yumin was amused by Zhanshutang's words, and shook his head helplessly.

"How much is missing? I have a little here, but I'm in Chongqing, and I might have to find a way to use it in Shanghai. ”

"I don't know." Sun Yumin replied casually, and then waved his hand violently and said, "How can you use Brother Zhan's money, no, no." He knew that this was the back road and coffin book prepared by the exhibition hall for himself, and the exhibition hall had not been reused in history, even if he was a lieutenant general and division commander, he died depressed. Therefore, Zhanshutang prepared a sum of money for himself early in the morning, planning to abandon the army and return to his hometown if he couldn't do it, although the amount of money stored in Chongqing is not huge, but it is really a lot. How could Sun Yumin bear to use this sum of money, and kept waving his hand to refuse.

"I'm also the deputy commander of the 12th Army, the commander of the 81st Division, and a member of the 12th Army. Could it be that Brother Yumin treats Zhan as an outsider? ”

Zhanshutang is worthy of being a person who has been in the army for many years, and Sun Yumin was speechless when he said a few words, so he had to agree with him, but he also explained to him that the money was borrowed by the government.

Sun Yumin said this, and Zhanshutang had to agree, as for not paying it back by then, I will talk about it later.

With the money from Zhanshutang, Sun Yumin had a lot more confidence in his heart, and immediately asked Tang Chunhong to call Shanghai and inform Deng Dongping and Qian Jin of the weapons he wanted to purchase.

To his surprise, they called back the next day. Regarding Sun Yumin's concerns, Johnson and Mark gave a solution: the transportation problem was handed over to Mark, and he used the name of the German government to gather several steamers to help transport weapons to Ruichang, and what Sun Yumin had to do was to send people to build a temporary wharf on the Yangtze River in advance; On the issue of weapon operation, they will send dozens of instructors, these are retired veterans of the US military, who are responsible for teaching skilled operation here, and Sun Yumin needs to be responsible for their safety and salary.

Of course, Sun Yumin promised that the banks of the Yangtze River from Ruichang to Wuxue were in his hands, and it was not too difficult to build a temporary wharf; And responsible for the safety and salary of the instructor team, that is not a problem, it is regarded as a mercenary, although there is no such term in this period, but in fact the nature is similar.

What surprised Sun Yumin even more was that several treasures brought by Deng Dongping and them were sold at a high price. The buyer originally wanted to hack these things, but as soon as he learned that Sun Yumin came to raise military funds, not only did he not rob them openly, but bought them at a high price, and even Deng Dongping and Qian Jin wanted to inquire about the buyer's name and asked Sun Yumin to thank him personally, but the buyer refused. In the end, it was the people from the Shanghai Station of the Military Command who secretly told them that it was Mr. Du, who was the dominant man in Shanghai, who bought it.

The deal was completed quickly, and all but five M3 medium tanks had to be shipped from the United States.

According to Sun Yumin's wishes, Deng Dongping and Qian Jin purchased 15 M3 light tanks, 10 1O5mm M3 howitzers and 20 75mm M1 mountain guns, as well as a large number of artillery shells and tank-mounted Browning M1918A4 machine gun shells and vehicle-mounted 37mm tank gun shells. After the settlement, the money he brought with him was not spent, which was all due to Mr. Du, who gave a lot of extra money when he bought the treasures of jade cabbage, plus the money transferred by Zhanshutang, there was still a lot of leftover, and the two of them were busy calling to ask Sun Yumin's opinion.

Sun Yumin was overjoyed to hear such a good thing, and he asked Tang Chunhong to call back immediately, asking them to buy all the remaining money to buy M1 Garand semi-automatic rifles and fully automatic carbines. Sun Yumin knew that if he could equip his troops with a regiment of American-style weapons, then the Nakai Division in front of him would no longer be his opponent.

The information fed back by Deng Dongping and Qian Jin made Sun Yumin ecstatic again, and in order to retain their big customer, the American Johnson sold all the M1 rifles and carbines around him to them at a low price, and by the way, there were also a large number of bullets, the number of which reached hundreds of thousands.

In the days of waiting for this batch of weapons and ammunition, Sun Yumin was simply living like a year, and he was worried that if he did not buy the Germans' account and intercepted this batch of weapons and equipment, he would really want to cry without tears.

Sun Yumin instinctively planned to attack Jiujiang and distract the attention of the devils, but was vetoed by Zhanshutang, he said: "If you fight Jiujiang, it will undoubtedly make the devils strengthen their defense of the Yangtze River, and if you want to attract the attention of the devils, it is better to feint Gao'an, so that the devils mistakenly think that we are going to fight Nanchang and attract their attention from the Yangtze River, which is much greater than the role played by fighting Jiujiang." ”

A word woke up the dreamer, although he didn't have too many illusions about Zhanshutang, and appointing him as the deputy commander was just a measure to balance the internal relationship, but twice in a row, he helped himself a lot, so that he had to re-examine this deputy who was more than ten years older than himself.

"Just do what Brother Zhan said." Sun Yumin suddenly felt a sense of relief in his heart, everything was pressed on him before, but now that he is now, the people around him seem to be able to share some of it for him. He then said to Chen Lai: "Inform Xiaohu and let the 20th Division send a regiment to feint Gao'an, if the devil dares to fight any crooked ideas, I don't mind a real attack on Nanchang City!" Although Sun Yumin knew very well that there were still three divisions of the Japanese army gathered around Nanchang: Nakai Ryotaro's 1O6 Division, Oga Shigeru's 34th Division, and Sakurai Shizo's 33rd Division, he was not very afraid, because at this moment he also had four divisions in his hands, and behind him Luo Zhuoying's 19th Army and hundreds of thousands of national army troops in the 9th War Zone.

"Yes."

Chen Lai was about to go to the telecommunications room after responding, but was stopped by Zhanshutang: "Slow, there is no need to inform Division Commander Zhang, the troops of the 20th Division are far away from Gao'an, and the 81st Division is repairing water, instead of calling the troops of the 20th Division, it is better to let the 81st Division go." ”

After Chen Lai was stopped, he looked at Sun Yumin.

"Listen to Deputy Commander Zhan, you don't need to inform Xiaohu." Sun Yumin gave his response, originally he wanted to let the 81st Division go, but he was afraid that if the 81st Division was used, Zhanshutang would definitely have to go back to command, and during this period of getting along, people couldn't help him a lot, so he finally could take a break, and he had to lead the troops to fight again, he was a little embarrassed to say it.

"Junzuo, I know you care, so I didn't plan to let the 81st Division carry out this mission, but I show someone who is not old enough to move, besides, it's just a feint, and it's not really going to fight, so you can put 10,000 hearts!"

Zhanshutang stopped Chen Lai, and said this to Sun Yumin again, and then without waiting for him to agree, he walked out of the division directly, he was a little angry.

Sun Yumin originally cared about him, but he didn't expect Zhanshutang to mistake him for underestimating him, this is really a dumb eater of Coptis chinensis. Seeing that he was a little angry and left, Sun Yumin couldn't chase him out, so he had to say to Chen Lai: "Inform Lin Yuanping and ask him to send a few clever soldiers to protect Deputy Commander Zhan, and don't let him go to the battlefield in person." ”

…………

After Kazuichiro Enbe succeeded Okamura Ninji as commander of the Tenth Army, he immediately won a great victory in the Battle of Zaoyi and killed General Zhang Zizhong, commander-in-chief of the 33rd Group Army of the Nationalist Army, which made him famous within the Japanese army. He was praised not only by the Dispatch Command, but also by the Cabinet and Emperor Hirohito.

This glory was unparalleled in the Japanese army for a while. Kazuichiro Enbe couldn't help but feel a little proud, and his arrogance began to rise.

When he learned from Oga Shige's telegram that the Nationalist troops in Jiangxi suddenly launched an attack on Gao'an around Nanchang, he was stunned for a moment, then laughed out loud, and said to the chief of staff beside him: "Commander Okamura Ninji がキャンプに転任され, Military Seat Officials のfic を事めていたのは、1o1師団が中国军のSun Yuminbu に打ち簡簕れ、Ito Masaki (イドンジョン) 師団长が命を失った." (The reason why Commander Okamura Ninji was transferred back to the base camp and took up the post of military counselor was because the 1O1 Division was defeated by Sun Yumin's division of the Chinese army, and the division commander Ito Masashi died at the front.) ）

"Commander 閣下には、この孫玉民は大したことのない相手で、土肥原君さえも彼の手で食べて損をしたことがあって、私たちは大賀茂師団長に気をつけないで下さい?" (Your Excellency Commander, this Sun Yumin is not a good opponent to mess with, even Tu Fei Yuanjun has suffered a big loss at his hands, should we remind the commander of the Great Agamo Division to be careful?) The chief of staff reminded him that he had no good impression of this arrogant commander, and in his mind, Enzobe Eleven was far inferior to Okamura Ninji, who was a Chinese expert.
