Chapter 49 Arms Orders
Jiang Cheng asked, "Then please ask Mr. Win to quote a real price." β
Ying Tianlin said to the outside, "Hank, you bring my computer. β
Hank with a computer is a big guy with a red breech.
Ying Tianlin turned on the computer and looked at it and said, "I can mobilize probably only the SKS semi-automatic rifle, this is still the goods we received when the Soviet Union collapsed, and it has not been sold, if you want it, it will be given to you, but you have to think clearly, this gun is really an old gun, bigger than me, you may not win with this gun to Africa." They're all AKs at worst. β
Jiang Cheng nodded and said, "That's it, this is the gun, this suits me very well." I want 1000 rounds per gun, which is five bases, but what about machine guns? β
Ying Tianlin said with a smile, "There are many machine guns, but if you take into account the unification of ammunition, it is the Chinese Type 56 machine gun, the Soviet RPD and RPK light machine guns." β
Jiang Cheng thought for a while and said, "I remember that 56 is exactly the same as RPD, so let's do it, I'll ask for 400 first." β
Ying Tianlin spat out a puff of cigarette and said with a smile, "Yes, yes, you have a vision, do you want any other bazookas, grenades or something?" β
Jiang Cheng nodded and said, "Let's talk about mortars first, what goods do you have?" β
Ying Tianlin thought for a while and said, "82 mm, I have a 2B14 type of Soviet goods here, how about it?" β
Jiang Cheng nodded and said, "Then let's start with 100 Type 2B14 guns, and 1,000 shells for each one." β
Ying Tianlin felt that he had really met a rich man, and asked, "How many grenades?" β
Jiang Cheng thought for a while and said, "Let's get 20,000 grenades first." I want a grenade, not an egg grenade. "The biggest advantage of long-handled grenades is that they can be made into cluster grenades to enhance their lethality, which can give the Red Army an additional means of dealing with enemy pillboxes and combat vehicles. After all, these things are for emergency use, and the next step is to strengthen the self-production capacity of the Republic of China.
When it comes to bazookas, Jiang Cheng hesitated a little, bazookas have good attack power in the face of enemy chariots and pillboxes, but the question is that the principle of bazooka is actually not difficult, will it be captured by the Japanese army on the battlefield? Turning his head and thinking about it, he couldn't help but feel a little timid, in history, the Eighth Route Army had to sign even a mountain artillery shell from the division commander, and the possibility of losing the bazooka in the hands of a large army was too low.
Jiang Cheng asked, "I don't know what bazooka you have here?" β
Ying Tianlin showed Jiang Cheng the list and said, "I see that what you buy is some old goods, in this case, I will build the bazooka, you buy the RPG-7, this thing is good and cheap." There are also many sources of goods. β
Jiang Cheng said with a smile: "How did I hear that in the Vietnam War, in the Battle of Hue, there was an M48 that was hit by 120 rounds of RPG and still fighting, and in the Iraq War, there was also a record that the Challenger 2 tank was hit in a single encounter and more than 70 RPGs were still able to get out of it safely. β
Ying Tianlin hurriedly shook his hand and said, "What age is that, it was early-okay, okay, the price can be discussed." So how much do you want? β
Jiang Cheng didn't want to buy too much, so he said, "Come 80 pieces, each with 50 rounds." β
Jiang Cheng bought this, and he felt about the same, so he said, "Let's calculate how much it is first." β
Ying Tianlin immediately pulled out a list and said, "Come on, come on, look at Ha, SKS semi-automatic rifles 10,000 rounds, each with 1,000 rounds of ammunition, 400 dollars each, and then 400 Soviet RPD machine guns, each with 2,000 rounds of ammunition, count you 1,000 dollars each, 100 2B14 mortars, 1,000 shells each, even if you are 12,000 dollars each." There are also 20,000 grenades, count you 1 million dollars, and you buy less bazookas, so I will give them away. In this case, 6.6 million dollars, I will equip you with a bayonet and a spare barrel, how about it, conscience price. β
When Ying Tianlin said the price, Jiang Cheng agreed without saying a word, but hoped that Ying Tianlin would provide him with a secret warehouse.
Ying Tianlin thought for a while and said, "No problem, there are many islands in the Pacific Ocean, let's find a warehouse that no one has, but we just ship it to the warehouse, and we don't care how to ship it to China." β
Jiang Cheng also knew the difficulty of shipping to China, and he didn't embarrass them, nodded in agreement and asked, "I don't know when I can get the goods?" β
Ying Tianlin asked, "Alexia, how long will it take for us to give our brother the goods?" β
Alexia shook off his long golden hair and said, "This time, Boss Jiang wants a bit of a lot of goods, and we have to prepare for a while, about a month." β
Jiang Cheng couldn't help but hurriedly after hearing this: "Why does it take so long?" β
Ying Tianlin said helplessly, "The most we usually do is one or two thousand guns and cannons, so there are fewer and fewer, after all, most of the world is peaceful now, and the governments of those countries are all through the guΓ² government to buy weapons and equipment, only some friends with love and justice will be willing to come to me to buy, so we have to prepare for a long time." β
Chen Ce saw that they were talking about it and asked, "Boss Jiang, who are you?" Of course, I know you won't say if I ask. But you're not going to rebel, are you? β
Jiang Cheng looked at him with an idiotic face and said, "Is this your madness, or am I crazy to rebel with such a weapon?" Is it in Africa? It's someone else's request, and I'm just buying it for someone else. β
Ying Tianlin shook his head and said, "I don't care who wants it." As long as the money is in place, all right. Mr. Jiang, can you please pay half of the deposit first? β
Jiang Cheng said, "I'm not busy, these are all asked by others, and I have so many weapons." You also need to defend yourself, do you have any high-end individual weapons? β
Jiang Cheng thought of his small army in the Republic of China, which was the strength to protect himself in the future, and he must be equipped to the teeth.
Ying Tianlin said happily, "No problem, I'll give you the menu." Take your pick. β
Jiang Cheng took a paid weapon menu, he didn't know much about modern weapons, so he had to hand it over to Chen Ce, who was playing with his mobile phone on the side, and said, "Didn't you say that you were a mercenary?" Help me pick and choose, I'll give you 100,000 consulting fees. β
When Chen Ce heard this, he hurriedly put away his mobile phone, rubbed his hands together and smiled very earnestly, and said, "No problem, my boss, do you have any requirements?" β
Jiang Cheng thought for a while and said, "Help me get equipment like a 200-person special forces, if you want the best, money is not a problem." β
After listening to this, Chen Ce made a crackling selection, handed it to Jiang Cheng and said, "I like to use Chinese-style equipment, but most of Tianlin here are Soviet-style, look at it, how about this?" β
Jiang Cheng looked at it, but there were a dazzling array of AK-47M guns, 200 T33 pistols and mufflers, 200 DK-9 tactical knives, 20 Remington M700 sniper rifles, 20 PKP machine guns, 20 RPG-30 rocket launchers, as well as portable laser dazzle guns, cold weapon bows, and a large number of grenades, special ammunition, as well as a full set of body armor and bulletproof helmets, and a large number of bombs that looked indistinct. Looking at the price, these things actually cost him $800,000, Chen Ce explained, "These are the latest preparations, and some of them are not even equipped much by Russia itself, so it is normal for the price to be a little higher." β
Jiang Cheng was not familiar with the latest light weapons, but when he saw that they were all the latest equipment, and then thought that these weapons would be put in the Republic of China, they were basically invincible, and he was not worried, so he agreed.
After talking about the weapons business, Ying Tianlin seemed to be very happy and invited Jiang Cheng to participate in his game. Jiang Cheng was still thinking about what this rich man's game was at first, and he could finally learn it as a pseudo-rich man, but when he brought it to the game room and saw that A and B were already sitting on the computer, and the computer screen was LOL, Jiang Cheng felt that his IQ was insulted.
Chen Ce patted Jiang Cheng and said, "Boss Jiang, you have to know, unplug the network cable, close the computer, read a few pages of your favorite book, go out for a walk in the sun, or ride a bicycle, and when it gets dark, ask a few friends who haven't seen you for a long time to find a place to drink some wine, chat, and do whatever you want." At the end of the day, you will find that it is LOL that is the most interesting. β
Ying Tianlin also laughed and said, "Playing with brothers and beauties is one of our favorite things, today you are here, Ida will not be on it, don't worry, we will take you to play." β
Seeing that Chen Ce and Ying Tianlin both put on headphones and prepared for battle with green eyes, Jiang Cheng reluctantly entered the game.
ββTen minutes later, accompanied by the scolding of "pit goods", Jiang Cheng, who was driven out by four people, reluctantly put on a blindfold and was taken away from the ship, and when Jiang Cheng was pushed out of the car, Jiang Cheng found that he had arrived at Chen Ce's shop again, and his car was by his side.
Jiang Cheng smiled and drove in the direction of the warehouse, after all, the comrades in the red zone were still waiting for him.
After the most worried about the arms problem was solved, Jiang Cheng breathed a sigh of relief, although it would take a month to get the goods, but no matter how the problem was solved, the key to the problem now has become the non-unity of ammunition, as we all know, during the Republic of China, Chinese weapons were mainly German-style equipment, and they bought Soviet-style equipment, and the captured equipment in the Anti-Japanese War must be Japanese-made equipment, so it is easy to make the army's logistics chaotic. This problem can only be discussed with the Red Army in Yan'an, Jiang Cheng came to the material warehouse and looked at the materials in a large warehouse ready to start crossing.
- Time and Space of the Republic of China, Tokyo, Japan
On May 31, 1937, in the Capitol Building in Tokyo, Japan, Hayashi Mijuro seemed to be a teenager old, looking at the scene in front of him, but he felt extremely sad in his heart, did he finally be abandoned by these people. He seemed to see the young man, and left tears in his eyes, but he was still over, and the few months of his life as prime minister now seemed to be a joke in retrospect.
After a month of strong support, the cabinet of Hayashi Milling Juro finally came to the end, and seeing the expressions of various ministers, Lin Milling Juro knew that his cabinet was over at this moment.
Hayashi Juro bowed and said, "Thank you." Then Lin Mi Shilang sighed, looked at everyone, stood up and bowed to everyone, and said, "Gentlemen, with our assistance, the cause of the empire has not changed for the better, and now the political situation is turbulent to this point, it is our responsibility to plan for the future of the empire." β
Hayashi stopped his words and looked at the councillor sitting below. I hope that someone can help me talk, so that I can be cheeky and stay in the prime minister's throne for a while. But there was silence below, and everyone was waiting for what he was talking about.
Lin Mi Juro knew that he was already completely alone, and sighed and said, "I announce the general resignation of the Lin Mi cabinet. β
There was no regret below, but silence and applause, even the cheeky Hayashi Juro felt embarrassed, he raised his head to look at the humiliating scene in front of him, sighed, and left the rostrum.
On the Saionji Mansion that night
Saionji Konobo and Konoe Fumiro sat together drinking sake and celebrating Hayashi Mijuro's downfall.
Xiyuan Temple Gongwang nodded and said, "I went to ask the Emperor for instructions again today, the Emperor wants to see you, you can go tomorrow." β
Konoe Fumiro smiled and said, "Teacher, don't worry, I won't let you down, His Majesty the Emperor and I have a family relationship, and they will definitely be satisfied with me." β
Xiyuan Temple Gongwang looked at Konoe Fumiro and seemed to be a little frivolous, and couldn't help but say worriedly: "Your biggest problem is that you are easy to be proud and complacent, thinking that everything is under your control, and now that the military department is becoming more and more powerful, you have to be more careful." β
What Xionji Gongwang didn't know was that Konoe Fumiro himself was a fascist who supported the Imperial Daoist faction, and hoped that he could suppress the fascist forces in Japan, which was tantamount to conspiring with the tiger, and soon the big drama he staged made him realize that the democratic system he had been working hard to manage was completely disintegrated by his disobedient disciple, and in a sense, he did see it very accurately, this disciple was indeed very disobedient.
The next day, Fumiro Konoe was summoned to meet the emperor.
The emperor at this time was the infamous Showa Emperor in later generations, he was the 124th emperor of Japan, his real name was Hirohito, and he was called Di Gong. He was the eldest son of Emperor Taisho Kahito. In 1914, he graduated from the elementary department of Gakushuin and studied at the Tonomiya Academy. He was made crown prince in November 1916. In the 10th year of Taisho (1921), he became regent due to the illness of his father, Emperor Taisho. In the fifteenth year of Taisho (1926 AD), he succeeded to the throne and changed the Yuan Showa to "Zhaoming of the people, concord and ten thousand states" in the "Book of Shang". And now it's 12 years old.
At this meeting, Fumiro Konoe was very excited to promote his plans and theories to Hirohito, and when he heard Fumiro Konoe criticize the parliament, saying that the chaos in Japan today is largely due to the existence of the parliament, and in order to save today's Japan, it is necessary to defeat parliamentarianism, Hirohito couldn't help but shake his head, is this Fumiji Konoshi really a disciple of the old-fashioned Saionji Gongwang? How could his political philosophy be that he was actually ready to single-handedly destroy the political system that his teacher had been maintaining. However, Konoe's theory of justice for external needs won his heart. Finally, with Hirohito's acquiescence. Fumiro Konoe began the final preparations for the establishment of the cabinet.
- Yan'an
Due to the experience of one time, Ba Shun and the guard troops cooperated very tacitly, this time neither the chairman nor the boss came, and only after inquiring did he know that the Nanjing Nationalist Government had come.
The Central Committee of the Kuomintang Delegation, also known as the Xi'an Delegation. Composed of 21 people, including Tu Sizong, Xiao Zhiping, and Shao Hua, in the name of the "Xi'an Camp Investigation Group of the Chairman of the Military Commission of the Nationalist Government," they inspected Yan'an, the CPC Central Committee's garrison, Guanzhong in Shaanxi, and the Red Army garrison in eastern Gansu. The chairman, the boss, Ye Jianying, and Chen Geng are all accompanying the inspection.
Jiang Cheng only knew a few members of the Central Committee in Nanjing, and these relatively low-level people really hadn't been in contact, so he didn't worry about them recognizing him.
Jiang Cheng asked Yang Zhichengdao, "I brought so many supplies, I don't know how the chairman explained it to them?" β
Yang Zhicheng pointed at the soldiers and said, "The chairman thinks that we can't let Nanjing know that we have improved, otherwise I am afraid that Chairman Jiang will be suspicious and unwilling to resist the Japanese, so our soldiers have put away the newly sent supplies, anyway, the initial order is not to wear those new clothes in non-war time, the soldiers are all old Red Army, and they all express their understanding, and the food has temporarily stopped improving, and the sausages have also stopped being supplied." β
Jiang Cheng nodded to show his understanding, after all, the red and white sides only came together because of the anti-Japanese resistance, once one side made a move, the other side must be suspicious.
Jiang Cheng didn't want to meet with people in Nanjing, so he proposed to meet the chairman and the boss secretly, and Yang Zhicheng knew the particularity of Jiang Cheng in the red zone, and immediately asked for instructions.
After a while, the guard took Jiang Cheng to a room, and Mr. Zhu was waiting for Jiang Cheng with a smile inside.
Mr. Zhu asked the guards to retreat outside the house and said, "Chairman Chiang sent people to inspect us, and Chairman Mao went to deal with them. β
Jiang Cheng shook his head indifferently and said, "Anyway, in the end, in history, we still basically rely on seizures, it doesn't matter, this time I came to send a new batch of supplies, but because I contacted the arms in modern times." β
Mr. Zhu said happily, "It's really good, what equipment do you have?" β
Jiang Cheng took out the list and said, "For the time being, I only ordered rifles, machine guns and mortars, and heavy weapons needed professionals to use and repair them in my time, so I was not ready to buy them." β
Mr. Zhu nodded and said, "You are right, we are buying weapons now for emergencies." In the future, self-sufficiency is our goal. β
Jiang Cheng pointed to the list and said, "Now we have a problem with the inconsistency of logistics, the caliber of Soviet-style weapons and Chinese-style weapons in later generations is 7.62MM, while the caliber of Mauser and Zhongzheng is 7.92MM, and the Japanese 38 cover is 6.5MM, which makes our logistics prone to confusion." β
Mr. Zhu looked at it and said, "We have future experience, and the development of weapons in the future will definitely move closer to the Soviet style, but considering the reality, I think that in the early stage of the Anti-Japanese War, the Mauser will be the mainstay, and in the middle due to a large number of seizures, it will be mainly Japanese, and after the construction of our military industrial system is completed, the Soviet-based weapons will be the main weapons in the future." In my opinion, we can unify weapons on a small scale, such as Japanese, German, and Soviet divisions, so as to unify the logistics of the relative situation. Well-, Lao Jiang is too stingy, and he will only give us three divisions in the future, and maybe it will be placed at the battalion level in the future. β
