At present, a large number of troops of the national army are fighting in the south, recovering a lot of lost territory, only the recovered county town has twenty or thirty, not including those towns, the annihilation of the little devils also reached tens of thousands, but the national army and the little devils are fighting, consuming a lot of weapons and ammunition, and need to be replenished in time.\\

Although the Kuomintang had American aid, the aid was far from enough, and after the outbreak of the Pacific War, a lot of the aid promised by the United States was not in place, and the United States was also at war with little Japan at this time, and the pressure was not small.

At present, all the units on the Kuomintang front need a large amount of weapons and ammunition, and if they do not replenish weapons and ammunition, many troops will not be able to fight the little devils head-on, and they will need to carry out guerrilla warfare.

Although the Eighth Route Army had only three divisions and about 300,000 people fighting in the south, the results achieved were basically comparable to those of the National Army, and it also recovered a large number of county towns and annihilated tens of thousands of little devils.

Now, the national army is in dire need of weapons and ammunition.

Some time ago, Zhang Yunfei's 36th Group Army annihilated hundreds of thousands of enemies in the northeast and captured a large amount of weapons and equipment.

The equipment of the imp is not available to the 36th Army.

However, if these equipment are given to the troops of the national army, then the units of the national army will break their heads, and many officers of the national army who are fighting on the front line hope to get a large amount of weapons and ammunition the most.

With Chen Cheng coming to Datong, in the conversation with Zhang Yunfei. Chen Cheng revealed intentionally or unintentionally that he wanted to buy some more weapons and ammunition from the 36th Group Army.

Zhang Yunfei also revealed that he wanted to sell weapons and ammunition, so one wanted to buy and the other wanted to sell, and he immediately reached a preliminary intention.

When Lao Jiang received a telegram from Chen Cheng, he immediately gritted his teeth. It was decided to take out another part of the money to buy weapons and ammunition from Zhang Yunfei.

The 36th Group Army won such a great victory in the northeast, and the pressure on Lao Chiang was also very great, and Lao Chiang was anxious to recover the entire south of the Yangtze River, and if the Nationalist Army did not fight a few more big victories and recover a large amount of national territory, the Nationalist Army would be completely overwhelmed by the 36th Group Army.

As the current leader of the country, Lao Chiang did not want the 36th Group Army to surpass his own national army, so. This time, even if the treasury is emptied. Lao Jiang also had to buy a large amount of weapons and ammunition, and then fight a few head-on battles with the little devils to recover the entire vast area south of the Yangtze River.

Lao Jiang had clearly telegraphed to Chen Cheng that he would buy as much equipment as he had in the 36th Group Army, and he would not refuse to come.

Because of this, now, Zhang Yunfei and Chen Cheng are sitting together again. I'm going to talk about this arms deal in detail.

The meeting room of the headquarters of the 36th Army.

On the side of the 36th Group Army, Zhang Yunfei, Zuo Qingquan, and Fang Zheng were sitting, and on the Kuomintang side, in addition to Chen Cheng, there were several Kuomintang officers, two major generals, and one colonel.

The two sides have already exchanged pleasantries. I said some kind words, and now, gradually moving on to the topic.

"Commander-in-Chief Zhang!" Chen Cheng took a sip of hot tea and said modestly: "Your army is in the northeast. After a few big battles, the annihilation of hundreds of thousands of little devils in the Kwantung Army really makes us ashamed, our army has fought a lot in the big and small battles in the south of the Yangtze River, but compared with your army, it can only be regarded as a small fight. ”

"Where, where, Chief Chen is too modest." Zhang Yunfei smiled slightly, "If you weren't short of weapons and ammunition, you would definitely not be the way you are now, maybe the entire south of the Yangtze River will be recovered soon." ”

"yes!" Chen Cheng sighed, "Our soldiers who are fighting on the front line are not having a good time, and with the loss of several major arsenals in China, we have lost the ability to produce weapons and equipment in large quantities. ”

To tell the truth, although the two sides have reached a preliminary intention, the total quantity and price of weapons and ammunition have not yet begun to be discussed in detail, and Chen Cheng is afraid that Zhang Yunfei will ask for a price.

Now, the whole world is at war, weapons and equipment are in short supply, and if you have money, you may not be able to buy weapons and equipment, if Zhang Yunfei asks for a price, Chen Cheng has no choice.

However, Chen Cheng obviously underestimated Zhang Yunfei, Zhang Yunfei did not intend to ask for a sky-high price, Zhang Yunfei was a little sympathetic to the national army, "Chief Chen, you lack weapons and ammunition, I also know, I admire you very much, for the sake of the Chinese nation, in order to resist Japan, you have fought one battle after another with little devils in the absence of weapons and ammunition." ”

"In order to drive the little devils out of China as soon as possible, I have decided to sell you all the weapons and equipment we have captured in the northeast, and sell all of them to you at market prices, and in addition, our 36th Group Army will also give you 5 million Mauser rifle cartridges for free."

Hearing this, Chen Cheng stood up excitedly and hurriedly said, "Commander-in-Chief Zhang, thank you so much for this." ”

Chen Cheng definitely didn't expect that Zhang Yunfei not only did not increase the price, but also gave himself so many rifle bullets for free, so many rifle bullets, this favor was great.

At present, all units of the national army, except for some of the Japanese-style equipment, most of the troops use Hanyang-made and medium-formal rifles, as well as Czech-style light machine guns, and the bullets used in these equipment are all Mauser rifle cartridges.

Because, in this way, Zhang Yunfei's 5 million rounds of ammunition are simply a send-off in the snow, not the icing on the cake.

Zhang Yunfei smiled faintly, "Chief Chen, you are too polite, this is also a little contribution we have made to China's War of Resistance Against Japan, and it is also what we can help you, everyone is an anti-Japanese force, if you can help, we must help." ”

Seeing Zhang Yunfei say this, Chen Cheng expressed his gratitude again and again.

"Lao Fang, have you counted the number of weapons and equipment we have seized in the northeast this time?"

When Fang Zheng saw Zhang Yunfei asking, his expression was straight, and he immediately said: "Commander-in-chief, in addition to the weapons and equipment that we have captured in the Northeast this time, in addition to the weapons and equipment that have been equipped with the Northeast Garrison Brigade, there are also 285,000 Type 38 rifles, more than 8,000 crooked machine guns, more than 3,000 Type 92 heavy machine guns, more than 30 million rounds of various bullets, and more than 60,000 boxes of grenades. ”

"In addition, we have also captured a lot of heavy equipment, including more than 200 mortars of various kinds, more than 70 Type 92 infantry guns, more than 40 75-mm mountain guns, and nearly 100,000 rounds of shells."

So much equipment!!

Although Chen Cheng was mentally prepared, he definitely did not expect that the 36th Group Army had seized so many weapons and equipment, and Chen Cheng's eyes lit up when he heard it.

Next to Chen Cheng, the officers of the national army were also flushed, and they thought excitedly, it would be great if they bought all these equipment this time.

These officers of the Nationalist Army knew that many troops on the front line lacked weapons and ammunition, and that the Central Army was a little better, and that the situation was even worse for some miscellaneous troops.

Every time I fought with the little devil, I didn't shoot a few bullets, and I started a white-knuckle battle with the little devil, and every time I fought, I often killed 800 enemies and lost 1,000 myself.

Zhang Yunfei saw that Chen Cheng and these officers of the national army reacted so much, and Zhang Yunfei was also a little emotional.

Chen Cheng was excited, but also smiled awkwardly, he was a little out of shape just now, Chen Cheng immediately said: "Commander-in-Chief Zhang, I didn't expect to have so much equipment, I'm so happy." ”

Zhang Yunfei laughed, "It's indeed a bit much, this is the equipment of hundreds of thousands of little devils in the Kwantung Army." ”

A major general of the national army next to him immediately asked excitedly: "Commander-in-Chief Zhang, are there so many cannons and these heavy weapons sold to us together?" ”

"Of course!"

Listening to Zhang Yunfei's affirmative answer, the major general of the national army became even more excited, you must know that heavy weapons such as cannons are generally difficult to buy, and even if you have money, you may not be able to buy them at a high price.

The major general of the national army thought that it would be good now, buying so many cannons at one time would be enough to equip several artillery regiments, and the soldiers would have enough artillery support to fight the little devils on the front line.

According to the market price, all the weapons and ammunition were sold to the national army at one time, and the place of delivery was set at Zhengzhou in Henan.

At present, Zhengzhou, Kaifeng, and Luoyang are all cities controlled by the national army, and the railway from Zhengzhou to Beiping has been unimpeded, and these weapons and ammunition can be directly transported from the northeast to Zhengzhou by railway.

This time, according to Zhang Yunfei's request, the transaction was all gold and silver, and this huge amount of gold and silver almost emptied Lao Jiang's vault, and a large amount of gold and silver were transported to Datong in batches by plane.

After selling so much equipment, Comrade Zuo Qingquan and Comrade Fang Zheng who were sitting there were also happy faces, anyway, everyone didn't need these equipment, and they were rusty in the warehouse, so it was better to exchange them for gold and silver.

The next day, Chen Cheng and his entourage were about to take a flight back to Chongqing, and Zhang Yunfei personally sent Chen Cheng to the airport, giving Chen Cheng enough face, which made Chen Cheng extremely happy.

In the next few days, Zhang Yunfei is ready to take time to accompany Lin Yuxin and Jiang Xiaoying, during this period of time, he has been busy with military affairs, the front line is fighting, and he has very little time to accompany the two.

Now, with the war in the Northeast coming to an end and the main force of the Kwantung Army being wiped out, Zhang Yunfei is much more relaxed, and he has time to accompany the two of them well.
