Bright Sword: Infinite Logistics

Chapter 53 The generous Li Yunlong
"Blind Cheng? Why are you here?"

Amidst the rumbling artillery fire, Cheng Shifa led his company of agents into the new regiment's blocking position from the side.

Then this guy Li Yunlong got the news.The Japanese attacked the Japanese every day, so Li Yunlong naturally arranged manpower to prevent himself from being attacked by the Japanese.The observation post on the side immediately told Li Yunlong the news.

"I'm here to save you! Look at your soldiers, how many are injured? Could you please consider your strength next time you cause trouble?"

While scolding Li Yunlong, Cheng Shifa attached the gun case to his shell gun, pointed it at the Japanese and started shooting.

In a close-range gunfight within 100 meters, with the Japanese's marksmanship, the casualties of the new regiment cannot be low.So far, more than a dozen soldiers have been killed, many others have been injured, and the health workers are already overwhelmed.

As for the loss of ammunition, it is even greater, especially when so many grenades were exploded on the puppet troops just now.Reporting the number would make all the commanders of the Eighth Route Army so heartbroken that they could not breathe.

After listening to Cheng Shifa's words, Li Yunlong laughed: "Blind Cheng, you are such a poor man and you come here to help me? How many bullets do you have in your pocket?"

As he said that, he pointed to a row of empty ammunition boxes next to him: "If you really want to help, hurry up and take the people who can evacuate to the temporary warehouse behind to move supplies. Let your soldiers get more bullets. After I saved it, people said that I, Li Yunlong, was a local rich man from Shanxi. He was not even willing to give bullets to friendly troops when they came to help. In the end, he had no choice but to fight with the Japanese with bayonets."

"Who are you trying to kill? I'm here to help you out of kindness, why are you talking to me like that?"

Cheng Shifa fired the gun and then hugged Li Yunlong: "Tell me everything, how many good things did you get? Are you so generous?"

Li Yunlong shook his head: "Don't reveal your wealth to others. If I tell you, kid, the whole brigade and division will know about it in a few days. By then, the threshold will be leveled for you."

As he said that, he smiled again: "But it is more than enough to provide you with one more company of ammunition for the time being."

As soon as he finished speaking, the Japanese on the mountainside organized another attack.Two nearby machine guns fired a hail of bullets at them without hesitation, making Cheng Shifa's eyelids jump.

"Li Yunlong, is this how you use the machine gun? No matter how many bullets you have, what should you do if the barrel of the gun is broken?"

Li Yunlong glanced at his old comrade: "Don't worry, I'm not stupid. Fighting like this does waste barrels... but I also have a lot of barrels."

Just as he was talking, a machine gunner on the side removed the overheated barrel, took out a new barrel from the box at his feet and replaced it. The whole process took less than ten seconds.

The corners of Cheng Shifa's mouth twitched violently.He had seen Czech-style disassembly and assembly of barrels before, but this was the first time he had seen one with such smooth movements on the battlefield.

When did our Eighth Route Army start training machine gun crews to quickly change barrels?

"Wang Yi, what are you doing standing still? Hurry and take Lao Cheng to the temporary warehouse! There is not much ammunition on the position. Go and bring all the machine gun shells! Also, ask Advisor Meng for some more grenades."

After Li Yunlong ordered the guards, he turned to look at Cheng Shifa: "Old Cheng, if you see anything in the warehouse that can be used, take it. But don't touch the mortar shells. They are sixty-caliber. The one in your regiment is the [-] mortar, so it can’t be used.”

"Yes!" Wang Yi turned around: "Captain Cheng, please come with me."

"Follow me in the second and third rows." Cheng Shifa didn't say much, and followed Wang Yi with his shell gun in hand.It was rare for Li Yunlong to be generous. If he didn't take more, wouldn't he be looking down on Li Yunlong?

Soon, Cheng Shifa and his party arrived at the temporary warehouse not far behind the position.As soon as I got close, I heard a voice coming from the grass and asked: "Stop, who is that?"

"I am the regiment leader's guard, Wang Yi. This is Commander Cheng of the [-]nd Regiment. The regiment leader asked us to move supplies." Wang Yi stood there and waited.There is a squad of soldiers guarding the temporary warehouse. They say they are guarding the warehouse to protect the supplies, but in fact they are protecting Meng Zhige.Compared with Meng Zhige, the supplies in the warehouse are just drizzle and not important at all.

"Go in." The secret whistle quickly confirmed Wang Yi's identity.The regiment has been stationed in Zhangzhuang for so long, and they all know each other.

The group walked into the warehouse and immediately saw Meng Zhige writing on the ammunition box, and Zhao Hu standing guard on the side.Meng Zhige heard the footsteps and turned around: "Wang Yi? Who is this?"

Without Wang Yi's introduction, Cheng Shifa stepped forward and said, "I am Cheng Shifa, the leader of the [-]nd Regiment. I have long admired Brother Meng's name but have never been able to meet him. Today I have got my wish."

"It turns out to be Commander Cheng, thank you for meeting me. But why is Commander Cheng here?"

Meng Zhige looked at Cheng Shifa in confusion. He never expected that Li Yunlong had already transferred the brigade commander.

"The brigade commander wants to attack the county town, so he asked me to take the first step to help the new regiment clean up the Japanese who left the city. It's not just me. This time, except for the supplementary brigade and the independent regiment, all other regiments of our brigade are present." Cheng Shifa smiled. answer.

The brigade commander discussed whether Meng Zhige could be trusted and whether information should be disclosed to him at the brigade headquarters.The end result is believable.

The reason is very simple. They clearly give free supplies to help you fight the Japanese, and there are quite a lot of them.

After the fall of Datong, the existentialist warlords took the initiative to send the Eighth Route Army 50 rounds of [-] ammunition and [-] submachine guns.With this little thing, the Eighth Route Army was allowed to help near Taiyuan from mid-September to November, nearly two months, and it was not over until the fall of Taiyuan.

Let’s look at Consultant Meng again, not counting the batch of bullets in May.The light started on July [-]th and ended on the [-]th. How many things were given in half a month?

Three thousand cans of meat, one hundred [-]-caps, [-] Czech machine guns, [-] rounds of [-] bombs, [-] rounds of [-] bombs, [-] hand grenades, and [-] smoke bombs.That’s it, not counting the included gun accessories and so many high-quality wooden boxes.

What is sincerity?That's it.

"I came here this time because Li Yunlong thought I was too poor and asked me to come over and replenish some bullets. Consultant Meng, how many bullets are there left here?"

Meng Zhige stood up and picked up his notebook from the ammunition box: "This is the pile, one thousand rounds per box. Here are sixty-five bullets, and here are seventy-nine bullets. Commander Cheng can take as many as he wants."

"What are the twenty boxes over there?" Cheng Shifa looked behind Meng Zhige.

Meng Zhige turned back: "Oh, those are mortar shells, eight in one box, 160 in twenty boxes. There were originally four hundred shells, but the others were moved away by the artillery crew."

"How much?" Cheng Shifa was suddenly stunned.

"Four hundred shells, what's wrong?" Meng Zhige was also stunned, and then showed an apologetic smile: "Oh, you think it's less, right? There are only four hundred shells, and they will be gone after a few battles... But I have no choice, I can only get so much for the time being. But I can also urgently dispatch a batch of bullet grenades, what do you want?"

Cheng Shifa felt dizzy. He didn't listen to a word Meng Zhige said next to him.There was only one number and the quantifier that matched that number echoing in his ears.

Four hundred pieces...

　Nine-one-eight... We don't have the chance to fight with our own hands, so we can write a few more to death.

　　In addition, many readers feel that the supplies are insufficient.In fact, it's not that few. By the end of 37-39, Guo Preserved had given out almost 1000 million rounds of ammunition, an average of 55 rounds a month.The protagonist's current supply capacity is equivalent to more than half of preserved fruits (military level only)
