All gods, the lord who started with the bright sword

Chapter 311, friendly exchanges

In the training range, there are hundreds of shooting positions filled with people. From time to time, someone shoots at the target. Even if each person fires a shot in 1 minute, it will fill up the [-] seconds.

The sound of gunshots is endless, making people feel as if they have come to the battlefield of fierce confrontation.

Everyone in the observation group who followed Chen Hao was quite surprised to see the situation on the training ground.

Since it is not a war, why is it such a waste of bullets?

Chen Hao casually introduced to everyone: "A good shooter is fed with bullets, and a qualified Japanese soldier is trained to knock out nearly [-] rounds of bullets.

I set a rule for the soldiers under my command that everyone shoots 200 rounds, and they need to practice conditioned reflexes, which means shooting where they are within [-] meters.

But it is still impossible to do it now. Even if they shoot [-] rounds a day, it will take a month to finish shooting. Their current marksmanship level is still very average. "

In the ears of the observation group, Chen Hao's introduction was Chi Guoguo's show off.

Each soldier fires [-] rounds of ammunition every day. You must know that their [-]th Division, the top elite unit in the national army, can't fire [-] rounds for a single soldier in a year of training.

If the target of [-] rounds is destroyed in a month, the barrel will have to be scrapped.

If they hadn't come to observe the scene in person, they would definitely think that Chen Hao was bragging, but looking at the bullet casings scattered around each soldier, they knew that what Chen Hao said was true.

This is not training soldiers, it is simply burning money.

One of the staff officers, a lieutenant colonel surnamed Wang, who once assisted in logistics management, said: "A bullet is worth two to three catties of rice, and a soldier destroys four to six hundred catties of rice a day, which is too extravagant."

He calculated the value of bullets concretely, and everyone understood.

The Ministry of Military and Political Affairs stipulates the food standard for the army. A soldier has: 4 catties of rice per day, 2 taels of canned meat for meat, 2 taels of dried vegetables and [-] taels of pickled vegetables for vegetables.

Other condiments, such as salt and soy sauce, give 4 and 3 qian respectively.

Such a standard can only be obtained by their Whampoa direct line troops, and it is impossible for the miscellaneous troops.

The soldiers in the training ground in front of them destroyed [-] rounds of bullets a day, which was equivalent to destroying a soldier's rations for a month. It is not too much to say that it was a waste of money.

Chen Hao smiled and said nothing, assuming that 6 million rounds of ammunition could be exchanged for a thousand soldiers with superb marksmanship, he would feel that he had taken advantage of it.

Of course, that's impossible. The ninety-five automatic rifle has a barrel life of [-] rounds.

When the soldiers' marksmanship is trained, the guns in their hands will have to be replaced, and they will not be able to be used for major tasks. At most, they will be used by the second-line garrison.

It is roughly estimated that the bullet plus the gun will cost 20 million steadily.

Therefore, it is very expensive to train the army. Of course, it will be even more expensive if you go to war.

Dai Yunlan was a little surprised at first, but he didn't make much comment. No matter how much it cost, it was not paid by him, and obviously it was not the country's military expenditure.

Everyone has to make decisions according to their own wishes, unless someone can control it.

All kinds of circumstances showed that Chen Hao was undoubtedly not controlled by others, so Dai Jianlan called him differently.

"Mr. Chen, can you let me try your gun?"

"No problem at all."

Chen Hao beckoned to a soldier who was training, reached out to take the automatic rifle, pulled the trigger at the target, and emptied all the bullets in the magazine.

The target was more than 100 meters away, and a bunch of bullet craters appeared in an instant on the relatively flat target paper around the tenth ring.

After showing Dai Jianlan a marksmanship, he took a full magazine and loaded it, and Chen Hao handed him the gun.

Dai Jianlan had been misled by the single-shot shooting of the soldiers who had been trained all along. Only now did he realize that this was actually a continuous-fire gun comparable to a submachine gun.

After consulting with the soldiers a few times, Dai Jianlan understood how to use the [-] automatic rifle.

After learning to shoot from a standing position, he tested the target, single shots, short bursts of two or three rounds, and bursts until the entire magazine was empty.

Although the accuracy was a bit poor due to unaccustomed reasons, Dai Jianlan believed that this was a very good gun, much better than the American Thompson submachine gun he had ever shot.

"Mr. Chen, are all your troops equipped with such guns?"

"Except for special units, all combat troops use 5 automatic rifles." Chen Hao hesitated and said, "General Dai likes it. I can give you a thousand of them, plus [-] million rounds of bullets."

"Really?" Dai Jianlan froze for a moment.

Pay attention to Chen Hao's expression, and seeing that there is no regret or embarrassment on his face, he tentatively said: "Then I will admit it, a gentleman's word is hard to follow, you have to admit it."

"Although I am not a gentleman, I will not deceive a gentleman." Chen Hao smiled lightly.

The bullets sent out are worth tens of millions, which is a trivial matter to him now.

The point is that the person giving the gift deserves it.

If this person was someone like Tang Ji and Yu Xiaoqing's father, even if Chen Hao smashed it, he wouldn't be able to give it to them.

But he is Dai Jianlan!
He is determined to save the country, puts the interests of the country and the nation above all else, and has devoted himself to saving the nation from peril and relieving the people from suffering.

Dai Jianlan once said, "The survival of the motherland is entirely up to us" and "The rise and fall is our responsibility."

Originally named Dai Bingyang, he experienced the brutality and evil deeds of the invaders firsthand, and he has a deep-seated hatred for the Japanese invaders.

Changing the name to "An Lan", determined to turn the tide in the troubled times and serve the country.

In order to avenge his country, he used his name Mingzhi to name his four children: Fudong, Jingdong, Fanli, and Chengdong. They were all related to the national disaster and the Anti-Japanese War, and they were placed in his determination to defeat the Japanese army, drive away the Japanese invaders, and rebuild his homeland. and wishes.

Dai Jianlan will never leave his first wife.

Later, his children said that his mother was an illiterate rural woman who betrothed her father very early.His father had outstanding academic performance since he was a child, and later was admitted to the Whampoa Military Academy.

After entering school, he took his mother to Guangzhou.

The mother didn't have a name and her feet were bound together. My father started to name her Wang Hexin. He said that the heart of a lotus flower is very bitter, but it comes out of the mud and is not stained.

My father patiently taught my mother how to read, and later changed her name to Hexin, which means exuding the fragrance of lotus.

For bureaucrats in the old society, there were three joys in life: promotion, wealth and death of wife.

Dai Yunlan graduated from Whampoa Phase III and worked all the way from platoon leader to brigade commander. At the age of 35, he was promoted to major general because of his military achievements, but he still has a heart of serving the country and guarding his wife.

Seeing the big from the small, such a character can be called a moral model, a modest gentleman.

The vast majority of people cannot be as noble as a gentleman. People admire such people and are willing to make friends with such people.

He is willing to make a friend Chen Hao give such a gift.

After that, Chen Hao accompanied Dai Yalan to observe the shooting training of light and heavy machine guns, and also showed weapons such as rocket launchers and bazookas. He showed off his muscles and received many exclamations.

Sit down in the air-conditioned cabin and drink ice-cold sparkling water.

Formal negotiations have begun.

Chen Hao's purpose is very real. He wants people, a large number of soldiers who can immediately go to the battlefield to deal with the Japanese invaders.

We also need some educated young people who only need to go through a certain amount of training to quickly master the use of high-tech equipment and improve their overall combat strength.

As long as his purpose can be achieved, whether it is an automatic rifle or a rocket launcher, food, medicine or dollar gold, anything can be traded.

When Chen Haofei went to find the [-]th Division, he had promised these things.

But when Dai Jianlan opened his mouth, it was beyond his expectation.

"I can see that you have very advanced weapons and equipment, but you are short of manpower to use them. As long as you promise to fight against the Japanese invaders, I will give you as many people as you want."

Hearing this, the three officers sitting behind him on both sides were greatly paled.

This is such a good opportunity to ask for a price. The fat sheep delivered to the door can make a lot of money by ordering any advanced weapons and equipment.

If it is given to them, it is definitely impossible to let it go.

Just thinking about it, this is General Dai who is dedicated to fighting the Japanese invaders for the country.

Dai Jianlan's eyes were very firm. Although the external publicity of the Tonggu battle was a glorious defeat, in his opinion, victory is victory, and defeat is defeat.

The important ancient city of Tong fell, and the whole army retreated hundreds of kilometers.

The goal of driving the Japanese army into the sea has increased by hundreds of kilometers.

Since then, the Battle of Mandalay, due to the contradictions between China, Britain and the United States, and the confusion in command, the situation has become more dangerous.

Fighting in a foreign country, the expeditionary force had limited food and ammunition, no guides, no map of Burma to cooperate with the allied forces, and it was disadvantageous after a long battle, so they had to retreat.

This withdrawal is about to withdraw to the country.

The number of soldiers who died of illness and starvation on the way back, unable to keep up with the team, was twice as many as those who died on the battlefield.

Dai Yunlan's heart ached when he received the statistics from his subordinates every day.

The first time the expeditionary army went abroad to fight, they were defeated in a mess, and he was unwilling.

If someone could fight back, show the prestige of an expeditionary force, and drive the Japanese army away from Burma, Dai Jianlan felt that he would do whatever he wanted.

After figuring out Dai Jianlan's attitude and thinking, Chen Hao felt ashamed.

He worked as a mercenary, an arms dealer, and later a legitimate businessman, and he regarded everything he did as a transaction.

When making any decision, you must weigh it in your heart, what you need to pay, what you can get, and how much you can earn.

Like that without thinking, wholeheartedly for the country and the nation, at any cost.

It would be impossible for Chen Hao to do it anyway, he was already soaked in the stench of copper.

The only thing is that Chen Hao is very loyal, and Dai Jianlan means enough to him, he has to be moral.

Naturally, the Sichuan Army Corps took fighting the Japanese invaders as its mission and was determined to fight the Japanese invaders to the end.

The soldiers of the [-]th Division, who are willing to join the Sichuan Army, are treated the same as the soldiers of the Sichuan Army and enjoy the same treatment, whether it is food, weapons or military pay.

The [-]th Division is a heroic unit. Not only has it suffered heavy losses in personnel, but there are also a large number of gaps in many tanks, armored vehicles and artillery.

Chen Hao is willing to donate five infantry combat vehicles, ten military cards, five Type [-] rocket launchers, five hundred rockets, and a series of weapons and equipment such as bazookas, light and heavy machine guns.

The total value is more than [-] million yuan, and it will contribute to the reconstruction of the [-]th Division.

Counting the more than a thousand automatic rifles promised earlier, the general framework of a mechanized infantry regiment was established.

It was purely for the sake of the heroes of the [-]th Division fighting and General Dai Youlan's dedication to fighting the Japanese invaders.

If it were someone else, Chen Hao would not be able to trust him, so naturally it would be impossible for him to be so generous.

If another greedy general comes, it is impossible to let go of the opportunity to offer a price to kill.

Buying some advanced weapons, whether it is to go back to claim credit or sell them privately, will definitely win great benefits for oneself.

People respect me one foot, and I respect others ten feet.

The scene of negotiations that might have been tense and quarreling, with blushing faces and thick necks, has become a harmonious and joyful painting style.

Chen Hao called Lin Yi to give instructions, and according to the promised list of supplies, he was ready to be loaded and delivered to others.

It was agreed that a convoy of more than 100 trucks would set off tomorrow, send it all the way north to the [-]th Division, and then bring people back.

After dismissing Lin Yi, Chen Hao noticed that the soldier standing at the door was shaking: "Brother, you look very uncomfortable, are you sick?"

"Sir, I'm fine."

The soldier's lips were pale, and his voice was trembling. It was obvious that he was sick, and he was just holding on.

Only then did Dai Jianlan notice the guard's situation, and he called the soldier next to him to help him sit down: "Xiao Sun, why don't you tell me that you are feeling uncomfortable."

"Brother Chen Hao, is there a military doctor here? Can someone show him and prescribe some medicine."

The six soldiers who followed Dai Jianlan were all members of his guard platoon, and he treated them like family members day and night, and he seemed very anxious.

Chen Hao guessed that the soldier had malaria, but he still called the British military doctor to come and see.

The British military doctor is no longer as proud as before, and non-military officers are not allowed to see it is a thing of the past.

After a careful examination, the military doctor said to Dai Jianlan: "He is suffering from malaria, which is transmitted through the bite of mosquitoes carrying malaria parasites. Mr. Chen brought a large amount of medicine, which can be controlled by taking medicine. His condition."

Sure enough, it is malaria. The incubation period of malaria is 12 to 30 days. The onset of malaria is accompanied by fever, shivering, and rising body temperature. This symptom will last for 1 to 2 hours.

Some people have fever after sweating, and some people have prolonged symptoms.

If repeated attacks, it will consume a lot of physical strength, and even lead to death.

Many members of the Sichuan Legion survived, and all of them were cured with the western medicine brought by Chen Hao.

At present, the mainstream drug for treating malaria is quinine. The [-]th Division used to have some, but it is still a drop in the bucket for the huge number of patients, and it has long been used up.

Those who suffer from malaria without treatment and fall behind are basically sentenced to death.

Dai Jianlan's heart sank when he heard the first half of the sentence, and after hearing the second half of the British guy's speech, he immediately cast his eyes on Chen Hao.

Without asking for help, Chen Hao took the initiative to say: "Military doctors are not rich, and I have a lot of various medicines, which can treat various infectious diseases.

When I set off, I will ask someone to pull a batch for you, which is definitely enough. "

It stands to reason that people gave away a batch of medicines for nothing, and asking for more would seem to push the envelope.

The key trucks are transported hundreds of kilometers, and the Burma Road is difficult. It may take as little as three or two days, or as long as seven or eight days.

A sick person cannot last that long.

Dai Jianlan explained the situation, and begged Chen Hao to come, and first use the helicopter to bring a batch of medicine back for emergency use.

The helicopter is fast, and it takes more than three hours to go back and forth more than 1000 kilometers.

Chen Hao pondered for a while and agreed: "The only one who can command me is you, the general."

Dai Youlan attaches great importance to this matter. As long as possible, he certainly doesn't want to watch his soldiers suffer from diseases and die.

"Saving a life is better than building a seven-level pagoda. On behalf of all the soldiers of the division, I thank you for your kindness."

A word of thanks lifted Chen Hao up.

Chen Hao immediately sent someone to prepare.

Dai Yulan was going to send the colonel who came with him to go back with Chen Hao and convey his instructions.

Those who are willing to join the Sichuan Army to fight against the Japanese invaders should sign up early.
