Bright Sword: Infinite Logistics

Chapter 87 No one believes the truth these days
"More than 100 Japanese were killed and wounded, and at least 50 were confirmed dead? This guy Li Yunlong did a good job this time!"

After receiving Li Yunlong's battle report, the brigade commander finally felt relieved: "Send a copy of the battle report to Advisor Meng as well."

Chief of Staff Zhou on the side watched the correspondent operating the radio and whispered: "Counsel Meng... He seems to be very interested in Chu Yunfei, and even ran from the shooting range to Shangxizhuang to meet Chu Yunfei. But Li Yunlong reported , the situation when the two met was not very friendly."

"The head of Chu heard that Counselor Meng had given us assistance and asked him why he didn't cooperate with Guo Preserved. As a result, Counselor Meng scolded the principal."

The brigade commander smiled and shook his head: "Just keep an eye on Chu Yunfei. Advisor Meng is very supportive of us, and he has great confidence in us."

"Yeah." Chief of Staff Zhou didn't say much on this topic.He immediately switched to the next topic: "The ammunition consumption of the new regiment was about the same as expected, but nothing was captured."

Capture is something that is constantly emphasized within the Eighth Route Army, and it is also an important indicator to measure whether each battle is a loss or a profit.

Generally speaking, before the battle, the Eighth Route Army will estimate the losses and the amount of seized materials in advance, and only take action after confirming that it will not lose too much money.

Of course, there are some battles that won't be so fussy, such as blocking the Japanese army to buy time, covering the transfer of civilians, etc. These are matters of principle and cannot be discussed.

The fundamental reason why the seizure was so important was that the Eighth Route Army had no ammunition supplies.Once the family is destroyed in one battle, next time the soldiers will have to carry bayonets and big blades to fight the Japanese.Whether it can be captured directly and seriously affects combat effectiveness.

"The seizure is based on the continued combat effectiveness of the troops. The new regiment has Advisor Meng who provides supplies first, so don't attach too much importance to the seizure. Anyway, they don't use the weapons they seized. They will definitely send them to the brigade headquarters by then." The brigade commander knocked He knocked on the table: "But in this way, regardless of the loss of ammunition, the new regiment will be able to fight more battles in the future..."

These words made Chief Zhou's eyes light up.Because of the high requirements for capture, the troops were subject to considerable restrictions during operations.When people make trouble for the Japanese, they usually choose to engage in small-scale annihilation battles, because this kind of battle is convenient for seizing supplies.

When encountering a large-scale enemy, the troops' fighting enthusiasm will not be too high - even if they use sparrow warfare and other tactics to effectively kill the enemy, they will not be able to seize any supplies.No matter how you calculate it, it's a loss.

The Japs are not NPCs in video games. After they are killed, their equipment will explode on the spot waiting for you to pick it up. They will take away their bodies and equipment.The Japanese are not the enemy's army, and they will not abandon weapons and ammunition in large quantities, causing the spectacle of "four years of heavy production behind enemy lines is not as good as one year of picking up rags."

"Damn, how long has it been since we had this kind of day with sufficient ammunition supplies? It seems that we only had it during the Great Revolution. Later, when the gun barrel was in our own hands, it disappeared." The brigade commander laughed: "I didn't expect it. Let this bitch Li Yunlong get through first."

It is different from many areas undergoing revolution.In other places, intellectuals usually raise their arms and the people at the bottom respond. Then, without experience, they start to form a revolutionary army based on the imagination of the intellectuals.

But this ancient land is different. The revolutionary army has been a regular army from the beginning.Regardless of the fact that he is living a hard life every day, living a poor life, in fact, he is from the regular army and has sufficient supplies.They have gone through training and selection at the Whampoa Military Academy, experienced the flames of war among warlords, and now have an official designation - the No. 18 Group Army.

It is precisely because of this that they can exert their due power as quickly as possible after the weapons and equipment are in place.Instead of being like some places, where the food is delivered to the mouth and the brigade commander teaches step by step, in the end he is so angry that he breaks his defenses in various ways in the diary... "Okay, let's not talk about Li Yunlong. This guy has two skills in fighting." If you have a brush and enough supplies, you can be more free. I'm not worried about him now." The brigade commander put away the smile on his face: "Have you heard about the war in the north?"

The information on Eighth Road is not blocked.Two days had passed since the little Jaap was "careless and didn't dodge" at Nomenkan, and the Eighth Route Army already knew.I heard that the Japs were directly confused by the bear. Everyone felt gloating when talking about it, hoping that Big Brother would be more ruthless.

"If the Japanese are unable to find a breakthrough from the north, then their attention will definitely be directed to North China and the South. Comrades should be properly reminded not to indulge in pleasure but to take precautions."

"Okay, I'll make arrangements now."

range.

Meng Zhige put down the telegram in his hand, looked at the points growth rate on the system panel, and turned to look at Zhou Ying who was busy at the side: "Director Zhou, I heard that the masters at the headquarters arsenal are discussing improvements to make the rifle official?"

"Yes, a lot of machinery and equipment are still on the way, and construction is not expected to start until next month." Zhou Ying put down his pen and pushed his hair behind his ear with his left hand: "Why do you suddenly ask this?"

"Firearm design is a subject that I don't know much about, but I can provide relevant books, as well as samples and detailed drawings of excellent firearms from various countries. Tell them this news and ask them to list the books and firearm models they need. I Find a way to get it for them.”

"Okay, then I'll thank you in advance." Zhou Ying opened the left drawer of her desk and pulled out a brand new A4 paper - this was obviously something Meng Zhige had redeemed.

"By the way, how are the soldiers of the headquarters security company doing? I just came back and haven't checked the situation yet."

Meng Zhige went to Shangxizhuang with the Seventh Company of the New Regiment, so the shooting range was naturally free.Before leaving, Meng Zhige said hello to the headquarters, so the headquarters sent the guard company and a company from the [-]th Brigade over for training.

Of course, Meng Zhige could guess a little bit about why the security company came.He was not stupid. He exchanged so many supplies out of thin air and had them shipped inexplicably. If the headquarters was not wary, something would be wrong.Now I've sent a security company over to investigate, but it's normal.

"Not bad. The soldiers in the guard company have a good foundation. After a thousand rounds of bullets, more than half of them have reached the standard. Now their company commander is taking the remaining half of them to practice more." Zhou Ying wrote while writing, While saying: "It's just that the company commander of the security company is a bit weird. He likes to wander around. He has been all over the shooting range."

"Hey, Consultant Meng, how did you transport your supplies? I think people are probably investigating this matter."

"As I said, it is the specific application of space technology. It is not yet mature enough to transport living creatures." Meng Zhige smiled bitterly, "Why don't people believe the truth these days..."
