Chapter 288: No Loss in Blood!
Half a month ago, when Chen Feng gave the money, due to the expansion of the new regiment to 1,800 people.
So Li Yunlong left 2,500 sets of cotton clothes and 2,500 sets of gas masks for the soldiers of the new regiment.
The remaining 7,500 sets of cotton clothes and 7,500 sets of gas masks were all used by the transport team and cavalry to operate in the logistics department.
As a result, the rumors of this batch of cotton clothes and gas masks leaked shortly after they arrived at the logistics department.
Brigade commanders and regiment commanders, and even commanders of military districts, heard the news and asked Minister Zhang for cotton clothes and gas masks.
It's just that the wolf has more meat and less meat, how can this bit of cotton clothes and gas masks be enough?
There were even two brigade commanders who quarreled with the logistics department in order to distribute 500 more sets of gas masks.
At present, the main forces and militia in the two base areas in the southeast of Shanxi Province add up to more than 100,000 people, and 7,500 sets of gas masks are in short supply at all.
In the end, the head of the headquarters personally ordered an equal distribution, and the leaders did not dare to run to the logistics department, otherwise the threshold of the logistics department would have been flattened long ago.
"What the fuck is an airdrop check?" Grand Master Li shrank his hands into his sleeves: "Didn't the labor and management ask the transport team and the cavalry battalion to send you 7,500 sets of cotton clothes and gas masks each?" ”
Minister Zhang's tone was helpless: "Where is this little cotton clothes and gas masks?" Do you know how many troops our division has expanded this year, and those brigade commanders and commanders of military regions are about to fight in my logistics department in order to fight for gas masks. ”
Grand Master Li raised his head and said in a disdainful tone: "That's your Minister Zhang's business, when you waste got gas masks and cotton clothes, the soldiers would have been poisoned to death, and the soldiers would have been frozen to death." ”
Zhang Wanhe asked, "What do you want to do on a dog day?" It can't be specifically to scold Lao Tzu, right? ”
"Lao Tzu doesn't have that kind of kung fu." Grand Master Li said, "Hurry up, immediately prepare 3,000 sets of new military uniforms, I will take them away immediately, by the way, I will also take away your 300 military horses." ”
The purpose of Grand Master Li's visit to the headquarters this time was cavalry and new military uniforms.
His cavalry battalion suffered a lot of losses in the chase of the little devil planes in the Xinzhou Basin, losing half of the cavalry company.
Now there are only about 250 cavalry in the entire cavalry battalion, including the battalion headquarters.
Although he has been collecting military horses, the horses raised by the common people are okay for transportation and carrying supplies, and it is almost meaningless to pull them on the battlefield.
After all, the size and physical strength are not as good as the little devil's Oriental horses, and the horses of the common people have not been professionally trained.
The little devil's Toyoma can charge through artillery fire and bullets without being frightened.
Zhang Wanhe was startled, his buttocks that had just sat on the bench jumped up like a nail, and his tone did not hesitate: "Guard, send off!" ”
"What are you doing?" Li Yunlong flattened his face and said, "That's not a gold ingot, you can still give birth if Minister Zhang keeps it?" ”
Zhang Wanhe waved his hand and said: "Your kid is well-informed enough, I haven't covered this batch of military horses myself, and it is impossible to give you 3,000 sets of new military uniforms." ”
"The Sword Comes"
Dog's day, this time I don't want grenades, I want to change the military horses and new military uniforms of labor, and there are no doors.
I pretended not to be there when I knew about it.
These military horses were captured by various units in the Battle of the Hundred Regiments, and they were finally sent to the logistics department, and they were equipped with saddles, sabers, infantry rifles, and other equipment.
You can be pulled into battle in no time.
There are many main regiment commanders who are staring at this batch of military horses, after all, who doesn't want to have a mobile cavalry company?
However, Zhang Wanhe watched this batch of military horses very closely, and he didn't show his tone at all.
"I'll give you 25,000 sets of gray coats, and if you give me these more than 300 military horses, I'll get you 25,000,000 sets of cotton clothes at once." Li Yunlong is determined to win.
He had long wanted to make a cavalry regiment, but his strength did not allow him to raise so many cavalry.
But now the new regiment has grown, and even 105-mm howitzers are about to be owned.
I have cannons and guns, and the devil puppet army is my granary.
Lacking food and clothing, he had everything in the county, and when Grand Master Li heard that Minister Zhang had engaged in more than 300 military horses, his mind became lively again.
Don't miss the opportunity to come again, after this village there will be no such shop.
"25,000 gray coats?" Minister Zhang's eyes lit up, and then he shook his head: "I can only give you 1 cavalry company at most." ”
Although the horse equipment of a cavalry company is very valuable, 25,000 sets of gray tweed coats can keep 25,000 soldiers of the Eighth Route Army from freezing in winter clothes.
"Deal!" Grand Master Li poked his hand and said with a smile, "25,000 sets of gray coats and a cavalry company, right?" Then I'll take all 300 horses away. ”
“???” Minister Zhang was stunned and jumped up on the spot, "Li Yunlong, what do you mean by dog's day?" Robbery? How can you be such a leader? ”
Grand Master Li said: "You yourself said 25,000 sets of cotton clothes and 1 cavalry company. ”
"I will give you 50,000 sets of cotton clothes and 25,000 sets of gas masks in exchange for your three cavalry companies, that is, a cavalry battalion."
"How about it, this deal, you Minister Zhang won't lose money, right?"
Minister Zhang was stunned for a moment, and doubted: "What are you talking about, 50,000 sets of cotton clothes, 25,000 sets of gas masks?" ”
"You think I'm joking with you?" Li Yunlong didn't have a good breath and said, "If you can't say a word, if you can't do it, then forget it." ”
Minister Zhang instantly realized that it must be the cotton clothes and gas masks that Li Yunlong got from him again.
When others said this, Minister Zhang would definitely think that the other party was bragging, but when it came out of the mouth of Grand Master Li, he was convinced.
Grand Master Li can really get it.
According to the regulations, this is not a seizure, and Grand Master Li can choose not to hand it in.
If Li Yunlong doesn't turn it in, Minister Zhang really can't do anything about him.
"Deal!" This time, Minister Zhang's answer was very crisp and neat.
50,000 sets of gray cotton clothes, 25,000 sets of gas masks, and 300 military horses, not only did not lose money, but also made blood.
What's more, these 300 military horses consume 1,500 catties of refined grain and more than 3,000 catties of forage every day in the logistics department.
He's having a headache.
Just gave it to Li Yunlong together, so that Li Yunlong's head had a headache, and it also saved the other main commanders from fighting for these more than 300 military horses.
Although Zhang Wanhe is the minister of logistics, the power in his hands is not small, and he only needs to report to the headquarters to give this batch of military horses to Li Yunlong.
Li Yunlong took out so many things and handed them over to the logistics department, who would have an opinion from the other regiment commanders?
If you are not convinced, you yourself will take out a lot of cotton clothes and gas masks to solve the problem of the troops wintering and the gas bombs against the little devils.
"Let's go, where are the gray cotton coats and gas masks?" Minister Zhang was already hungry and thirsty.
"And 3,000 new uniforms?" Grand Master Li was not in a hurry.
"3,000 new uniforms?" Minister Zhang waved his hand and said, "No, there is not a single set of new military uniforms, and the 3,000 sets of new military uniforms we discussed just now are not counted in it." ”
After a pause, Minister Zhang asked in a puzzled tone: "I heard that your kid just expanded the No. 2000 people not long ago, and is preparing to expand the No. 3000 people, why are you going to be a brigade commander?" ”
"Then you don't care." Li Yunlong said, "Our old Li Bubai will take your Minister Zhang's new military uniform and exchange 5,000 sets of gas masks with you." ”
"You still have 5,000 gas masks?" Minister Zhang was taken aback, Grand Master Li made a lot of money this time.
"There are not so many new military uniforms of 3,000 sets, you know, the speed at which the clothing factory makes new military uniforms can no longer keep up with the speed of the expansion of the troops."
This is true, there are quite a few fighters of the main force who are still wearing the clothes of ordinary people, and the supply exceeds the demand.
Raw materials such as cloth and cotton are one of the reasons, and the manufacturing process is also one of the reasons.
"And how many new uniforms do you have?" Li Yunlong asked.
"I can give you 1,500 sets, but the quilt factory only has 1,000 sets of finished products now, and the remaining 500 sets will be given to you within two months."
5,000 sets of gas masks for 5,000 sets of new military uniforms are all earned, but Minister Zhang really can't come up with so many new military uniforms at once.
The 1,000 sets of cotton clothes were still ready to be distributed to a newly formed regiment.
But now it's winter, anyway, the coat from Li Yunlong is also gray, embroidered with the armband of the Eighth Route Army, and the cockade, which can be sent down as a new military uniform.
As for the military uniforms worn in the summer, they can be slowly repaired later.
"Then it's decided." Grand Master Li nodded.
He knew the situation in the quilt factory, and when it came to winter, his clothes were tight, and he really couldn't get so many new military uniforms.
The two sides happily reached an agreement, and both sides of the deal felt that they were not losing money.
For Minister Zhang, it solved the problem of the troops in the southeast base area of Shanxi Province surviving the winter, and greatly alleviated the problem that the front-line soldiers were helpless in the face of devil poison gas.
As far as Grand Master Li is concerned, the strength of the cavalry battalion has been greatly enhanced, and the militia units that are about to be expanded also have new uniforms.
That batch of cotton clothes and gas masks were supposed to be handed in, so why not exchange them for additional benefits?
Next, Zhang Wanhe arranged for the quilt factory to load 1,000 sets of new military uniforms, and Minister Zhang took the logistics transport team to harvest.
Li Yunlong led the soldiers of the cavalry battalion to lead 330 military horses and 1,000 sets of new military uniforms towards Yang Village.
Sun Desheng looked at the more than 300 Oriental military horses that had been added, and his mouth was about to cramp with a smile.
Although our old grandson is a cavalry battalion commander, it won't be long before he can live the life of a cavalry commander.
In addition to saddles and military horses, such as infantry rifles and sabers, Li Yunlong did not want, and the cavalry battalion of the new regiment was equipped with Yunlong swords and Garand semi-automatic rifles.
There is no need for the logistics department's Type 44 rifle guns and Type 32 sabers, saving hundreds of guns and hundreds of knives, Minister Zhang is naturally happy.
When Minister Zhang received the goods, Li Yunlong left 1,500 sets of gray tweed coats and 1,500 sets of gas masks for the recruits who were about to expand the county brigade.
Minister Zhang didn't say anything, anyway, the new regiment is an ace regiment, and when the new regiment is expanded, he will have to give priority to supply.
also directly asked Li Yunlong to leave some to save the trouble of transporting it back and forth.
After handling this matter, Grand Master Li asked the logistics transport team to pack 300,000 rounds of ammunition and 20,000 grenades, and he had to personally deliver them to the brigade headquarters.
This was promised to the brigade commander before.
By the way, let the brigade commander ask for instructions on the mortar and smokeless gunpowder production line equipment and raw materials given by Brother Chen, and see if the headquarters can agree to directly airdrop them to the Huangyadong Arsenal.
……
(It was greatly criticized by readers, the author thought about it carefully, Li Yunlong and Zhao Gang leaked the location of the arsenal without the consent of their superiors, this plot was not considered, so the plot was changed slightly, and Li Yunlong asked his superiors first, and the headquarters agreed to airdrop equipment and raw materials to the arsenal.) )
