Bright Sword: Infinite Logistics

Chapter 34 The Ministry of Supply now has one less opponent

After seeing off the transport team of the 769th Regiment, Zhang Wanhe finally had time to sit on a stone bench and rest.

He, the Minister of Supply, was very busy.Since settling down, troops from various places have begun to come to him for supplies.There was nothing we could do about it. The troops were already short of all kinds of supplies, and they were also encircled and suppressed by more than 5 Japanese soldiers.Now all the groups have basically wiped out their wealth.

So in the past few days, various regiments came to the door one after another. Some wanted bullets, some wanted grenades, and some needed medicine.The problem is that he doesn't have much, so he can only come to the most urgently needed places, otherwise he will inevitably be left behind.

The only thing that could make him relax was the 7th Brigade.Several regiments of the [-]th Brigade are real thieves. I heard that in the past few days they have found opportunities to knock on the Japanese with mallets and seized a lot of good things.Brigadier Chen came here two days ago and delivered more than [-] rounds of ammunition and dozens of sets of Type [-] rifle parts, which made him relieved.

Of course, he was just relieved, because the brigade commander moved dozens of boxes of grenades away from him with a backhand.As for the bullets that were delivered, [-]% of them were taken away by the special agents.There were no dozens of sets of firearm parts left. After repairing dozens of [-] guns, the boss assigned them to form a new regiment.

Now the supplies on his hands are getting less and less, and the supply department can hardly continue to operate.

"Lao Zhang! Oops, I finally found you."

Zhang Wanhe raised his head, a little irritated.We just saw off the 769th group, why did another one come?Is it over yet?
And the voice sounded familiar. Although I couldn't remember who it was, it was troublesome to hear it.

Li Yunlong walked to another stone bench opposite the stone table, pulled down the gun case hanging on his body with his right hand, and sat down: "Minister Zhang, I haven't seen you for two months. I didn't expect you to lose a lot of weight."

"Hey, what kind of wind brought you, Commander Li, to me today?" Zhang Wanhe felt that one was bigger than the other when he saw Li Yunlong.

This guy is famous for being a shameless person. If someone comes to ask for supplies, it might be okay to reason with him.But Li Yunlong is like a dog-skin plaster. If you don't pay for something, he will always cling to you and discipline you to make you uneasy even when you eat or sleep.

The first few times they met, Zhang Wanhe was really annoyed by Li Yunlong.Now is the time when the warehouse is the emptiest, and there is nothing to send Li Yunlong away.

"I came here today to ask you for hundreds of sets of military uniforms. As you know, our new regiment has suffered a lot of casualties during this period and has added a lot of people. Many soldiers are wearing just one hat..."

Before Li Yunlong finished speaking, he was interrupted by Zhang Wanhe: "Stop, stop, stop, Li Yunlong, tell me, what month is it now?"

"What month is it? It's the end of July, and it will be August in two days."

"Are you still feeling hot when you sleep at night?"

"It's still a little bit cooler, but it's cooler than a while ago."

Zhang Wanhe slapped the table and made a muffled sound: "You still know how cool it is, right? Autumn and winter are coming soon, and the quilt factory is trying to find ways to get cotton to make winter clothes. At this time, you are asking me for military uniforms? Shouldn't you? It was sent out early, where can I get it for you in 1Q2 now? If you are capable, go to the quilt factory and make it yourself!"

"I'm not going to the quilt factory. Is that a job for men?"

"Then go find your brigade commander. Didn't your brigade supply department get a batch of foreign cloth? The yellow and green military uniforms are also good, you can recognize them at a glance."

"But I think the color is not good. I still like gray." Li Yunlong paused: "Okay, I don't want that military uniform. You can get me dozens of boxes of explosives. You don't know, I went to suppress it some time ago The bandits blocked everyone in the stronghold, only to find that there was not a single box of explosives in the group. They could only stare at the door of the stronghold. If the bandits hadn't been so stupid and ran out on their own, our old Li would have You will be embarrassed." After listening to Li Yunlong's words, Zhang Wanhe just waved his hand: "No, no, no, bullets, grenades, explosives, military uniforms, none of what you want is here!"

"Old Zhang, are you being a little unkind? I still think of you as a fellow countryman. We just heard that Shuiyaozi Arsenal has started construction. If nothing else, there must be grenades in stock."

Li Yunlong curled his lips: "I've heard people say that you are not from the Dabie Mountains. You escaped from Shanxi earlier. I used to think this was nonsense. Now it seems that what they said is the truth."

This is pointing at his nose and scolding him for being stingy like a "Shanxi rich man".

Zhang Wanhe suddenly became unhappy: "Let me tell you, Li Yunlong, if everything is controlled by you, then why don't I, the Minister of Supply, do my job? Look at you like this, you don't look like a regimental leader, you are clearly a profiteer!"

"Profiteer? Where did you find such a generous profiteer like me!" Li Yunlong laughed.

Zhang Wanhe sneered at these words: "Generous? You guys have the nerve to say generous? We have been friends for so many years, and who doesn't know who the other is?"

"Come on, I'll show you something good and you'll understand." Li Yunlong stood up and grabbed Zhang Wanhe's arm.

Zhang Wanhe directly shook off Li Yunlong's hand: "What do you want to do, kid? If you can't win through hard work, why don't you try to rob me by force?"

This distrustful behavior did not dissipate until they saw the new transport team.Looking at the carts full of supplies, Zhang Wanhe opened his mouth wide.

"The sun is really shining in the west today." This time it was Zhang Wanhe's turn to put on a smile: "What is this? Did you rob the Japanese arsenal?"

Li Yunlong's face showed pride: "No, but we sent a transport team of about a hundred people two days ago."

"In this car, there are bullet casings collected by our regiment, as well as some firearm parts. The most important thing is that there are twenty machine gun barrels. Please sign for them." Li Yunlong's lips raised: "In addition, there are one hundred I’ll also open a can of meat for your comrades working in the rear.”

At this moment, Li Yunlong was like a scumbag who got perfect marks in the exam, waving his exam paper vigorously, looking forward to others' reactions when they saw his results.

Zhang Wanhe's reaction was spot on: a guy who always ate more and occupied more suddenly one day started handing in supplies.Surprise, joy, doubt... complex emotions intertwined together, this huge contrast made his expression look extremely wonderful.

This also gave Li Yunlong great psychological satisfaction.

After all, no one likes to be shameless all day long, begging grandpa and suing grandma everywhere.If Balu hadn't been too poor, would he be like this?
"Okay, okay, guard! Keep ten cans of meat and send the rest to the field hospital. As for these parts and machine gun barrels... I will send them to Huangya Cave myself!" Zhang Wanhe looked at the Czech style in the box The barrel and parts laughed.

In Meng Zhige's eyes, the twenty machine gun barrels and parts are just accessories that increase the machine gun's reliability and continuous shooting capabilities.For the Eighth Route Army Supply Department, a machine gun is already half-finished here.

What Li Yunlong is giving away is not gun barrels and parts, but machine guns!
