Chapter 413
Ma Qian'an jumped a few steps at an extremely fast speed and escaped from Ma Zhanshan's "club". Zhao Shangzhi, who acted as the receptionist, stepped forward to contact Ma Zhanshan.
"Are you Zhao Shangzhi?" Ma Zhanshan's expression became solemn, and he stretched out his right hand solemnly.
"Are you General Ma Zhanshan?" Zhao Shangzhi also looked at the old general in front of him curiously. Ma Zhanshan's face was wrinkles like a sword carved by wind and frost. Although Zhao Shangzhi was young, the pain he had experienced was unspeakable. Time left a mark on his face early, but his weather-beaten face had a sense of confidence covering the universe, and his whole body was filled with heroic spirit. They were all figures that caused headaches for the Japanese army, and they were famous for each other for a long time. When they met, they all felt a sense of heroes cherishing each other.
Ma Zhanshan laughed heartily, shook Zhao Shangzhi's hand vigorously, and praised: "Okay! OK! You will know that you are a man when you look at your appearance. I, Ma Zhanshan, will be sure of you. We will pray for you later. From now on, we will call you brothers and you will see how you think?"
Before Zhao Shangzhi could respond, Ma Qian'an, who had not walked far, jumped three feet high when he heard this and shouted to object. What do you mean? You two are praying to your brothers. When I see Zhao Shangzhi in the future, wouldn't you call him uncle? Besides, you can't calm down. Our Anti-Japanese Allied Forces will pray to your brothers at any time.
Ma Qian'an had arranged a little soldier to call Wei Zhengmin and told Wei Zhengmin that it was fine. As for the little soldier blinking his eyes and asking what was fine? Ma Qian'an told him not to talk nonsense and say it was fine. Wei Zhengmin understood the three words "全全".
After the confused little soldier left in confusion, Ma Qian'an heard Ma Zhanshan actually "wished" Zhao Shangzhi and said that he was brotherly match. This is too old-fashioned, and we are not a clue.
"You always need to pay attention to the influence!" Ma Qian'an pulled Ma Zhanshan aside, attached his mouth to Ma Zhanshan's ear and whispered to remind the old man to restrain himself.
"What? No?" Ma Zhanshan blamed Ma Qian'an, "What's the point of making a fuss? Are you in charge of heaven and earth and earth? What's wrong with me?"
"That's the habit of bandits and the style of warlords!" Ma Qian'an did not show any weakness.
Ma Zhanshan blinked and was amused, "This little bastard, I'm really not dealt with when I scold me for being a bandit!"
"You'll save money, you can't beat me, I'll run faster than you!" Ma Qian'an took a starting position, guarding against Ma Zhanshan's "risking up and hurting people."
As Ma Zhanshan and Ma Qian'an were both old and young, they were both young, and Wei Zhengmin also came back with the young soldier who sent the letter. He greeted him warmly from afar, "The arrival of Commander Ma has really made the humble house shine brightly. I have been talking recently, why has Commander Ma been here for two months, and he hasn't come to see his subordinates?"
Wei Zhengmin was very happy from the bottom of his heart. It turned out that Ma Zhanshan did not ask for weapons and ammunition, so this was easy to do. Anything could be discussed. Wei Zhengmin was used to poor life. When he fought with the Japanese two years ago, the soldiers used their fingers to calculate ammunition and fire guns. Don’t mention the poor, who cares about me and who will be anxious if I want ammunition.
Ma Zhanshan, who was thinking about how to "teach" his nephew a lesson, watched Wei Zhengmin get closer and closer, and hurriedly asked Ma Qian'an whispered, "Who is this scholar?"
"We all the military political commissar Wei Zhengmin." Ma Qian'an finished his answer quickly, staring at Ma Zhanshan's face to see what the old man reacted. The term political commissar is more sensitive. Chiang Kai-shek does not allow political commissar in the army, and they will be changed to be the director of the political department.
"Oh," Ma Zhanshan didn't seem to think much, and stepped forward, and the two of them shook their hands enthusiastically.
After entering Wei Zhengmin's office, Ma Zhanshan explained his purpose. It turned out that he was just passing by here, and his destination was the Anti-Japanese Ministry. He was preparing to enter the Northeast with the ammunition transport team.
In two months, Ma Zhanshan, according to the agreement between Chiang Kai-shek and the Soviet side, dispatched more than 10,000 people from the domestic workers sent to the Far East to form the 361st Division. After more than a month of hasty preliminary training, it has become slightly shaped. According to the agreement, in another month, Ma Zhanshan's team will enter China from the Outer Mongolia side of the Ergun River Basin to restrain the Japanese army in Manzhouli.
His Northeast Advancing # marched 4,000 cavalry through Outer Mongolia, most of which had entered the junction of Northeast and Outer Mongolia, helping the Outer Mongolia army to eliminate most of the Beshgofu White Bandit Army who had been harming the border for many years.
Before a large number of troops entered the border, Ma Zhanshan personally consulted Yang Jingyu for joint combat. The Second Route Army of the Anti-Japanese United Army, that is, the 363rd Division, was Daxinganling. Ma Zhanshan hoped that his troops could form a mutually responsible relationship with the 363rd Division. In the eyes of outsiders, Ma Zhanshan personally visited Yang Jingyu as the commander of the 40th Army. His deputy commander was obviously condescending.
But Ma Zhanshan knew that he was just the commander-in-chief in his name, and he didn't expect that he could command the other three divisions. Yang Jingyu had been fighting in China, and the two had never had the chance to meet. He heard that Ma Zhanshan was coming to "visit", so he agreed readily.
During a conversation with Wei Zhengmin, Ma Zhanshan talked about his about to obtain American equipment that could be equipped with a whole division, and clearly saw Wei Zhengmin subconsciously licking his lips.
"I want..." Ma Zhanshan said.
Wei Zhengmin stared at Ma Zhanshan's mouth nervously, his heart suddenly hopped, and his body trembled unknown.
"I want to exchange some Garland rifles for you Mosinnagan or 38 rifles." Ma Zhanshan slowly made his request.
"I won't take advantage of you one by one." Ma Zhanshan added immediately, dispelling Wei Zhengmin's nervous state.
"You just said that you gave us a group of equipment?" Ma Qian'an interrupted inappropriately.
"That's right, you can calculate it. If you exchange 2,000 semi-automatic rifles for 2,38 guns, I've used all small machine guns. Yours are all bolt-action rifles. You're good equipment for you. Isn't it worth giving you a group of equipment?" Ma Zhanshan said with confidence, but what he said is indeed reasonable.
"I dare to ask Commander Ma, why are you?" Wei Zhengmin was puzzled, very puzzled. There was no reason at all. This was impossible.
"Oh!" Ma Zhanshan sighed, "I'm not better than you. I don't have an arsenal to replenish ammunition. These guns are good guns, but I can't afford them! I don't know when I will get supplies again. Lao Jiang can't say that after you said that my bullets were exhausted for a while, this equipment would be a fire stick. If you replaced it with a 38 gun, you can save some ammunition and use the captured Japanese ammunition. Is it still a little longer?"
Oh! The relationship is out of the view of saving ammunition. Ma Qian was secretly happy in his heart.
In this era, both China and Japan were relatively backward in tactical ideas, and they believed that the rifles were fired accurately, so they would rather ensure the quality of rifles and ammunition than waste resources to create automatic or semi-automatic weapons that consumed ammunition. The industrial productivity was limited and it was impossible to manufacture large quantities of submachine guns and ammunition.
An example of a living failure is that during World War II, the Japanese army's individual equipment was much lower than that of the United States and Germany. The main infantry light weapons were Type 38 rifles, while the US, German and Soviet troops were submachine guns and assault rifles. This is mainly because Japan is poor. Although it is better than China at that time, Japan may be stronger than other European and American powers. The consequence of the difference is that it is swept away by others.
But this is indeed a tactical idea that should be eliminated. On the battlefield, the weak firepower density is a place where the party will die without a burial. If the Anti-Japanese Allied Forces does not have advantageous equipment, it will be difficult for the Japanese soldiers with excellent individual quality, let alone the new recruits trained by Ma Zhanshan?
Lao Ma really counts everything and even takes into account Lao Chiang's temper.
"Show me the list." Ma Qian'an reached out to take care of Ma Zhanshan's list of American machinery.
The weapons provided to Ma Zhanshan on the list include: 5,000 Garland rifles, 500 m1918 light machine guns, 50 mortars, 100 Browning pistols, and 200 tons of ammunition.
"Then do you have 3,000 Garlands? Do you have to face ammunition problems in the future?"
"It's always saves ammunition than 5,000 guns?"
"Then how much ammunition do you prepare to get with the 2,000 Garlands you exchanged for us?"
"One gun is OK, is it okay?" Ma Zhanshan felt a little embarrassed. He wanted to leave most of the ammunition.
Wei Zhengmin and Zhao Shangzhi discussed quickly with Ma Qian'an for a while. Judging from the combat methods of the Anti-Japanese Allied Forces, the effects of semi-automatic weapons and automatic weapons are still huge. They believe that Ma Zhanshan's thinking should be reversed.
In the end, the thinking of cooperation still gained the upper hand. Wei Zhengmin had a sincere exchange with Ma Zhanshan on behalf of the Anti-Japanese Allied Forces.
"Sir Ma, we all see your sincerity. No matter what purpose you want to exchange us for 2,000 semi-automatic rifles, we are still very happy to accept your gift. In return, we can provide you with ammunition for future combat. You don't have to worry about not enough ammunition, nor do you need to save ammunition in a tight manner."
This news was exciting, and Ma Zhanshan immediately realized it. This means that even if Chiang Kai-shek no longer provides ammunition in the future, the Anti-Japanese Allied Forces can provide it? Can I stop calculating the use of ammunition like a young wife?
"Really?" Ma Zhanshan's eyes began to shine.
"Then there is any fake? Bullets or something. We are just transforming bullet machines and producing American gun bullets, and there is no problem at all."
"Didn't it be difficult for you to get some bullets yourself? Wouldn't it be enough for you to promise me like this?"
Wei Zhengmin was slightly silent for a while, thought for a while and finally replied firmly: "It shouldn't be the case in the future. I have made up my mind. I will do my best to fight for our own interests, and our cooperation with the Soviet side will also open a new page."
Ma Zhanshan did not think about how Wei Zhengmin dealt with the Soviet side in the future. Anyway, he believed that since Wei Zhengmin had said something, he would definitely do it. He would do what he said and do what he did. This style is the basic quality of these. He had been in Yan'an for a long time and had already known a lot of people like Wei Zhengmin. He knew from his intuition that Wei Zhengmin was such a person.
