Bright Sword: Infinite Logistics

Chapter 24 The small treasury is not guaranteed
Not long ago, the Eighth Route Army headquarters was moved to Zhuanbi Village, and various departments were also moved nearby.

This place is safe enough. It is [-] to [-] kilometers away from Wuxiang and Yushe to the west. Several regiments of the [-]th Brigade are stationed in the middle. Even if the Japanese learn the location of the headquarters, the blocking of several regiments will be enough to buy time for evacuation.Moreover, there are deep mountains to the east. If that is not possible, the worst case scenario is to hide in the mountains. If you have the ability, you can go hide and seek in the deep mountains and old forests.

It’s just that it’s not certain who will be able to come out and who will stay in when the time comes.

The local mass base is also good. For example, the Ministry of Supply opened a supply school in the Li family ancestral hall, which shows the people's trust in the army.However, the trust of the villagers is not omnipotent. After thanking the villagers, Zhang Wanhe went back to his intense work.

Every time the Japanese raids, all departments of the army are extremely busy, many tasks have to be stopped urgently, and many policies that need to be implemented for a long time are difficult to see results.

Just like the epidemic prevention policy.The base area attaches great importance to health and epidemic prevention, but paying attention cannot solve the problem.There is a shortage of medicines, insufficient health personnel, and health administrative agencies at all levels have not been established.Epidemic prevention is not something you want to prevent, but others watch you do it. If the Japanese sweep away the enemy, a lot of work will be suspended or even done in vain.

This does not include the germ warfare of the little devils.

So far, some major acute and malignant infectious diseases have been brought under control.For example, there are only sporadic cases of smallpox and cholera.However, influenza, dysentery, malaria, and relapsing fever have been prevalent for a long time, and can even be so serious that less than 5.00% of the healthy population in a village.Among these diseases, malaria is the one that attracts the most attention - [-]% to [-]% of patients suffer from malaria.

This is why Meng Zhige chose quinine pills as the first support drug, because this is the drug with the largest shortage, and the demand is often more than one million.For example, in November this year, the Red Cross gave away 200 million quinine pills in one go.

Of course, that was in November, it hasn’t happened yet, and the gap will only get bigger.

Another example is the military industry. The Japanese invaded Yushe and the headquarters repair shop was also threatened.The deputy chief of staff personally went to survey the terrain and finally decided on the transfer address in Huangyadong.During the transfer, more than 20 machines in the repair shop were all stopped, and the already insufficient output was now lost.

Without a stable base, the arsenal cannot guarantee production. Without guaranteeing production, the combat effectiveness of the troops cannot be enhanced. Without the ability to enhance the combat effectiveness of the team, a stable base cannot be built.

The loop is closed, but it is still an endless loop.

"It would be nice if we could have a solid base..." Zhang Wanhe frowned and rubbed his head.

As long as there is a solid base for him to start production, many problems can be alleviated.But with the current situation, he could only think about it. Neither the Japanese nor the other side wanted the Eighth Route Army to develop and grow.

"Forget it, now is not the time to think about it, the work is not finished yet." Zhang Wanhe took one down from the tall pile of documents.

"Wait a minute, this report..." Zhang Wanhe frowned.

This is a document specially sent by the Military Depot Department. It was caused by the New Regiment of the 20th Brigade transporting a batch of materials to a military depot, including more than 5000 canned meat, more than 20 bullet casings, more than [-] rifles, and a small amount of seven Nine ammunition.

There are also some individual equipment of the Japanese soldiers, such as military uniforms and helmets.These need to be modified before they can be used, otherwise they may be accidentally injured by friendly forces.

Due to the impact of the raids, the depot's supplies could not be transferred in time, and a lot of supplies had accumulated. Now that the new group's supplies arrived, the original warehouse could no longer accommodate them.So he reported to his superiors that a new cave dwelling should be dug to store supplies.

The problem is that the new regiment has handed over a batch of shell casings after the Battle of Cloud Cluster and is short of ammunition.What happened to the sudden delivery of five thousand bullet casings? "Send this document to the [-]th Brigade and give it to Brigadier Chen." Zhang Wanhe handed the document to his assistant.

Based on his understanding of Li Yunlong, an old comrade-in-arms, he probably did something else.

"This kid Li Yunlong has been restless as soon as he returned to the position of leader." Zhang Wanhe shook his head and picked up the next document.This matter was handled by his immediate superior, Li Yunlong. The Supply Department only followed the rules and provided information.

The headquarters is closer to the brigade than the brigade is to the new regiment. Just three hours later, this document was placed on the brigade commander's desk.

"Well, Li Yunlong, let me tell you why this guy gave me a cart of canned meat two days ago. So he was hiding something from me, right?" The brigade commander slapped the document on the table.

I originally thought that the cans Li Yunlong sent were quite fragrant, but now that I think about it, I think this guy probably had a lot hidden away given his personality.The supplies are so small that they overflow. Will Li Yunlong distribute them to other troops?
The brigade chief of staff on the side laughed out loud: "That's not what you said yesterday. At that time, you praised him, saying that this stubborn donkey got good things and finally stopped eating alone. Remember to share it with your old man. ”

Unlike the Supply Department, the Brigade Headquarters had battle reports submitted by the New Regiment and knew that the New Regiment had engaged in many firefights recently.Just when I cooperated with the supplementary group, I took a lot of bullets from the supplementary group.Later, the new regiment was still suppressing bandits in Dayou Township, and there was also a plan to lure the enemy against the Japanese stronghold.

Therefore, when the New Regiment handed over so many bullet casings, the brigade headquarters' first reaction was not where the bullets came from, but that this guy Li Yunlong had gotten something good.

"Li Yunlong is a picky kid. He doesn't have tens of thousands of rounds of ammunition in his hands, so he can't play with such a large amount of money. Tomorrow I will take a platoon to the new regiment and look through his warehouse for anything that can be used. Good stuff. You stay at the brigade headquarters to handle emergencies for me."

The chief of staff suppressed a smile: "If you go directly like this, I'm afraid that Li Yunlong will be defeated."

"He dares!" The brigade commander's eyes widened.After a few seconds, he put away his expression and said, "Okay, I'll bring him another twenty boxes of grenades from the warehouse."

"Twenty boxes? Then he has to argue with the quality of the grenades."

"Then let him say it. If he doesn't think it's useful, I don't want to give it to him yet!"

The chief of staff laughed, and the brigade commander's expression softened a lot.After the chief of staff finished laughing, the brigade commander asked: "Did the headquarters say how much ammunition is needed?"

"No, but the more the better. The special agent group is fighting continuously, and the supply gap is huge. When the enemy can open up the Hanchang Road depends on how much capital we are willing to sacrifice."

"It's impossible to smash them all in. Otherwise, how can we break through the Japanese encirclement in the next raid? How long can it take?" The brigade commander turned and looked at the map behind him.

His eyes did not stare at Wuxiang Yushe, but slowly looked down at Han Changdao.

Next, that's the home court.
