September 3, 1940, Qijiang County Wharf, Warehouse District

The 68th Division of the provisional construction of large warehouses are connected together, although most of them are wooden warehouses, but from a distance it still looks very spectacular, very has a kind of logistics base in later generations.

However, because of the fear of the devil's bombing, there are not many supplies here, so that many people laughed at Li Yunlong behind his back for being a fool, and actually mobilized tens of thousands of people to repair such a reservoir area, and if it was wasted, it was estimated that it could only be used as a target for the devil's plane.

It's just that today, this reservoir area was suddenly blocked by the provisional 68th Division, and dozens of people from the Ministry of Military Affairs, the Ministry of Finance, and the Ordnance Industry Administration came to receive the first batch of weapons and equipment.

25 M1910 122-mm howitzers with 5000 shells; 20 Valentine tanks; T38 amphibious reconnaissance tanks 10; 50 T27 light tanks; 2 B-4 M1931 203-mm heavy howitzers with 200 shells; Second-hand Mosin Nagant rifle M1891 rifle 25,000 rifles with 800,000 rounds of ammunition.

Don't look at it as a business of 10,000,000 oceans, but on average to 12 issues, it is indeed not much, with the size of Wang Yue's current system space, this little thing can be brought back at one crossing.

The inventory and inspection were quickly completed, and a group of government officials finally breathed a sigh of relief, they were different from General Chen, who had already done business with the Eighth Route Army once, but the others did not, and suddenly placed an order of 10,000,000 yuan, and no one was worried that they would not receive the goods.

Especially those guys from the Ministry of Finance, in one breath opened dozens of mines in Sichuan Province, aquamarine, chrysoberyl, beryl, garnet, tourmaline, southern red agate, salt source agate, Longxi jade, Ya'an green, peach blossom jade, Shu crystal are all mined in large quantities, the early investment is from millions of oceans, and now the warehouse of the Ministry of Finance in Chongqing is almost full of these things, if the weapons cannot be delivered in time, even storage is a problem.

But just as General Chen was about to leave, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a warehouse that was also full of M1910 122mm howitzers, and the number was almost a hundred, which made General Chen, who had just obtained a large number of weapons and equipment, instantly feel that his mood was not beautiful, and his feelings My weapons need to be delivered in twelve installments. But do you have it in stock here?

Seeing General Chen stop, Zhao Gang, who accompanied him, also smiled bitterly, Wang Yue's plan really worked, this hundred cannons successfully attracted the attention of the other party, but this temporary increase in transactions really caught him a little off guard, could it be that there are more artillery in Brother Wang's hands to that extent?

Wang Yue was also bitter in his heart, there was no way, he was impulsive, and he collected more than 3,000 of these cannons at a time, but he had a small 1,000 pieces of this artillery in his previous inventory, just this thing, because of the limited performance and insufficient shells, it was also useful on the battlefield in China, so the main target customer had to be the Ministry of Military Affairs.

"Chief of Staff Zhao, what are these?" General Chen pointed to the cannons in the warehouse, his face quite displeased.

"Minister Chen, this is a supplier who is temporarily stored with us, and it is not a batch of those who are ready to be delivered to the Ministry of Military Affairs." Zhao Gang hurriedly explained, and there was a hint of panic on his face, don't say it, this acting skill is much stronger than Lao Li Ke.

"Since it is in stock, can't the artillery we ordered be delivered in advance?" General Chen continued to inquire that in order to receive the weapons provided by the Eighth Route Army, the government had already begun to train troops around Chongqing, and as long as the weapons were in place, new troops would soon be sent to the front line, and the tension on the frontal battlefield would also be improved.

Recently, the Eighth Route Army has been fighting hotly in North China and has achieved considerable results, and public opinion at home and abroad is boiling, which has made the government lose face, and now it is eager to launch a local counterattack to improve the government's image, so it is even more thirsty for weapons.

What's more, this is a hundred heavy artillery, if you don't buy it, eighty percent of these cannons will flow into the hands of the Eighth Route Army, which must be intolerable to the old man.

"Minister Chen, everything is carried out in accordance with the contract, if you want to get this batch of artillery immediately, I'm afraid, you can only go through another contract, otherwise, you can only help you coordinate northern Shaanxi and suppliers, however, this cycle will be very long, and it may not be possible." Zhao Gang said embarrassedly, it seems that there is a door for this matter today, and the Ministry of Military Affairs is obviously worried that this batch of artillery will fall into the hands of our Eighth Route Army.

"Then it's just a calculation, or 10% of the gold according to the previous way, and the rest is discounted in kind, right?" General Chen nodded, just sell it, the Ministry of Finance has already made it clear to him that the things that the other party wants are actually not expensive, and those gems in Sichuan Province are even more abundant, no different from stones, and they are not costly.

"Yes, but you need to pay first, and then ship." Zhao Gang nodded, Brother Wang seemed to be a little tight on his hands, so he was very strict with this.

"I bought it, and I will ask someone from the Ministry of Finance to ship the balance of this time and the payment for this hundred cannons tomorrow!" General Chen ignored the complaining little eyes of a few officials of the Ministry of Finance, and said with a final word, some stones, you ministers said that they are not worth much, what do you mean by that, even if it is a deposit, it is only half a ton of gold.

"Yes, but we have a small string attaché." Zhao Gang nodded and continued.

"On what terms?" General Chen frowned, what he hated was those seemingly insignificant additional agreements, the previous agreement with the Eighth Route Army made the old man unhappy, and now it is coming again, so General Chen is not vigilant.

"Minister Chen, in fact, it's nothing, it's just that the northern Shaanxi side hopes that the government can deploy a middle-level officer who graduated from Huangpu to serve as the deputy chief of staff of the provisional 68th Division." Zhao Gang actually didn't understand why Wang Yue did this until now, but since Northern Shaanxi agreed, he could only carry it out.

"Oh?" General Chen was very surprised, the Ministry of Military Affairs had long wanted to mix sand with the provisional 68th Division, but in view of the current delicate relationship between the two sides, it was not going well, only three or two small fish and shrimp in the dark, and now, Zhao Gang actually took the initiative to bring it up, is this a special hint from northern Shaanxi?

"Minister Chen, the person designated by the superior is Xie Jinyuan, the former commander of the 524th Regiment of the 88th Division." Zhao Gang continued.

"Him?" Minister Chen was stunned, to say that this is also a person from his civil engineering department, but in the past few years, Xie Jinyuan has been in the magic capital, trapped in the concession, although he has had the opportunity to rescue him several times, but Xie Jinyuan is unwilling to give up the army, and now even the old man is reluctant to mention that guy, but why did northern Shaanxi suddenly think of him, it's not right, although it is the fourth phase of Huangpu, I haven't heard that he has anything to do with that side?

"The chief read Yuan Muzhi's "Eight Hundred Heroes", and felt a lot of emotion, he didn't want the warrior to be in the magic capital, so he wanted to take him back, and he was originally going to be rescued directly by the New Fourth Army, but the superiors felt that this matter still needed the government to come forward, at least, there must be an order from the Ministry of Military Affairs." Zhao Gang felt that this was really a bit unreliable, the superiors in northern Shaanxi would rescue a national army officer because of a movie, no matter how it sounded, it was unreliable, but Wang Yue said it well, I don't care if you believe it or not, anyway, I believe it.

In fact, Wang Yuexian watched the movie he was going to bring to 1940, although the sound quality of the re-edited film movie was much worse, but the shock was still the same, but after watching the movie, he suddenly remembered one thing, that is, it seemed that Xie Jinyuan was still alive in 1940, and he should have been killed by a traitor in 1941, in this case, he felt that he had to do something.

Some people died, but not completely......
