"Sichuan Army? What's wrong with Sichuan Army?"

"They are going to the Xuzhou front line, but there is a big commotion because of supply problems..."

"What supplies? Weapons and ammunition?"

"Yes."

Hu Zongnan was very distressed.

Please ask Zhang Yong to go inside, sit down, and explain everything in detail.

After reorganization, the Sichuan Army still has a dozen divisions with about 150,000 people.

In the past, before the war broke out, Chiang Kai-shek had all kinds of dislikes.

Now, with the disastrous defeat in the Songhu battlefield, the fall of Jinling, and the heavy losses suffered by Huangpu's elite lineage, he felt that the Sichuan army was a favorite again.

The main reason is that the Sichuan Army is relatively obedient, has many internal hills, has average cohesion, and is prone to disintegration.

Look at the Jin, Yunnan, and Guangxi dynasties, all of which are independent kingdoms.

Some Sichuan troops were transferred to the Jiangnan battlefield.

Part of the Sichuan army was transferred to the Xuzhou battlefield.

Among them, those who were transferred to the Xuzhou battlefield walked to Xi'an and then took a train to the front line.

In China at that time, there was an east-west railway called the Longhai Railway.

It is the most important transportation artery in central China.

There is no one.

It connects Lanzhou, Tianshui, Baoji, Xi'an, Luoyang, Kaifeng, Xuzhou, Haizhou (Lianyungang) and other important cities.

At present, various signs indicate that the Japanese invaders intend to occupy Xuzhou.

Since ancient times, Xuzhou has been a strategic location in the Central Plains. Throughout the ages, there have been countless wars.

The Japanese invaders have already occupied Pingjin, Songhu, Jinling and other places. Once they capture Xuzhou, it will be equivalent to opening up a direct connection between the two battlefields.

By then, the Japanese invaders could more easily mobilize along the Jinpu Railway.

Of course, Chiang Kai-shek could not let the Japanese invaders succeed. So he assigned Li and Bai from the Guangxi faction to take charge of the Central Plains battlefield.

Being able to get Lao Jiang to allow his opponents to take command shows that he still recognizes the abilities of Li and Bai.

In fact, Li and Bai are indeed capable.

Simply talking about fighting, Xiao Zhuge is indeed better than others.

At present, Chiang Kai-shek is trying every means to send more troops to the Xuzhou battlefield. Among them are some Sichuan troops and Yunnan troops.

The specific number of the Sichuan Army is not known. The Yunnan Army should be the 60th Army.

As we all know, the Sichuan Army's equipment is very poor. If you don't change your equipment before going to the battlefield, it's almost a one-day trip.

At this moment, Chiang Kai-shek had something to ask for, so he was very generous and publicly promised to redress the Sichuan troops in Xi'an.

result……

Hu Zongnan was dumbfounded.

He has no extra weapons and ammunition at all!

There are several divisions of Sichuan troops! Tens of thousands of people! Where can he get so many weapons and ammunition?

"Actually, it's Jiang Dingwen's business. He pushed it to me."

"Jiang Dingwen?"

"Yes. He is the camp director. He should be in charge. What does it have to do with our Office of Appeasement?"

"oh……"

Zhang Yong understood.

The two of them were playing ball and excusing each other.

Hu Zongnan, Jiang Dingwen, and Tang Enbo are all very cunning.

It is absolutely impossible for them to take out weapons and ammunition from their own hands to redress the Sichuan army.

No one understands the importance of the military better than the three of them.

"Then you come to me..."

"Shaolong, we all know that you have great magical powers. How about you think of a way to deal with it first..."

"Looking for me?"

"Yes. Please. Really. Otherwise, they will bother me every day..."

"Is there a commission order?"

"have."

"show me."

"good."

Hu Zongnan immediately sent someone to get the warrant.

Zhang Yong took it over. Yes, it was indeed Chiang Kai-shek's handwriting, promising to change the uniforms of the Sichuan army.

I raised my head and called him "Brother Jinfan". I have no idea.

"This is……"

"Xiong Kewu."

"It turns out it was him..."

Zhang Yong was thoughtful.

One of the big bosses of the Sichuan Army. He is very senior.

It is said that he participated in the Huanghuagang Uprising. He also participated in various revolutions in the future.

He and Chiang Kai-shek never got along very well. This time he came forward to find Hu Zongnan. No wonder Hu Zongnan was so distressed.

Frankly speaking, Hu Zongnan is really the little brother in front of these old guys.

Even Jiang Dingwen is a junior among juniors.

The key is that Xiong Kewu had Chiang Kai-shek's handwriting, which was promised by Chiang Kai-shek himself.

If you fail to honor your promise, it will be equivalent to publicly admitting that Chiang Kai-shek has not kept his word. Maybe the other party will publicize it one day.

Then……

There is definitely nothing wrong with the appointment. The people below are the ones who are wrong.

"Do you have a list?"

"have."

Hu Zongnan sent someone to get the list again.

Zhang Yong took it and browsed it through.

Good guy, Chiang Kai-shek was indeed very generous when he needed help!

The list was issued by the Ministry of Military and Political Affairs. Zhang Yong deeply suspected that this kind of list was simply a blank check. The Ministry of Military and Political Affairs had no intention of honoring it.

Apart from anything else, how could Xi'an be able to get 15 million rounds of bullets?

Put the list away. Press the oracle on the list.

If you have something to think about.

"Shaolong..."

"It's not completely impossible..."

"Shaolong, we are brothers, you must help me..."

"It's okay to help you, but..."

"I understand. I understand."

Hu Zongnan clapped his hands. Immediately, someone came in holding a brocade box.

He took it, placed it gently in front of Zhang Yong, and patted it knowingly.

"You misunderstood..."

"No misunderstanding. No misunderstanding. I understand. I understand."

"Well……"

"Shaolong, let's be clear. I will pay half of the money, and Jiang Dingwen will pay half."

"How embarrassing..."

"Shaolong, if you can help us solve this problem, we will give you another hundred thousand later. You will never break your promise."

"Well……"

Zhang Yong silently opened the brocade box a crack.

There are all banknotes inside. Some are from HSBC and some from Citibank. They are estimated to be worth 100,000 yuan.

I was secretly surprised. There were actually 100,000 oceans!

When did these two guys get so willing?

Is there really no other way?

Would you rather lose money and eliminate disaster?

Probably.

Both of them are particularly sensitive to the current situation.

If the money is gone, you can earn it again. But if the army is gone, it will be troublesome.

As long as you have an army, territory, weapons and ammunition, and an ocean of 100,000 yuan, it is a piece of cake.

But it doesn't work the other way around.

At this moment, even if you have 100,000 yuan, you can't buy many weapons and ammunition.

Once a war breaks out, the most precious items are weapons and ammunition. Even more precious than food.

As long as you have a gun in your hand, you can grab food.

Even if there are no soldiers, you can catch them.

The premise is that you have a gun in your hand!

Therefore, no matter what, it is impossible for them to provide weapons and ammunition to support the Sichuan army.

I would rather give money to Zhang Yong and let Zhang Yong come forward to deal with Xiong Kewu.

"Is there really nothing we can do?"

"Really. Otherwise, we can't trouble you!"

"Does Jiang Dingwen admit his account?"

"Admit it! You must admit it! He wants to admit it! Otherwise, everything related to it belongs to him! He will have to go home and farm tomorrow!"

"good."

Zhang Yong stretched out his hand to hold down the brocade box.

Collect money.

work.

Even if you don't charge money, you still have to help the Sichuan army replenish weapons and ammunition.

However, since there are two big guys taking the initiative to send money to your door, of course they will not refuse them.

The more of this kind of thing, the better.

The radar map showed that someone was approaching from outside.

Immediately, someone hurried in and saw Zhang Yong there, but stopped talking.

"What's the matter? Tell me."

"Report, Commissioner Xiong is here again..."

"Invite him in."

"yes."

Hu Zongnan seemed to have hardened up a lot.

Maybe it was because Zhang Yong was present.

After a while, a burly old man in a long gown came in.

He was not wearing a military uniform. However, he looked like he was a soldier. No matter his actions or behavior, he had obvious military marks.

Zhang Yong stood up.

I am a junior, so I still have to be polite.

What's more, the other party's demands are completely reasonable. How can you go to the front line without weapons and ammunition?

The Sichuan Army is so active in going to the front line, so of course it must do everything possible to help them solve their difficulties.

You can fight to the death.

But you must not die because you run out of ammunition and food.

Oh, Zhang Yong will never be in charge of food. However, if the ammunition is exhausted, it is because Zhang Yong did not do a good enough job.

In other words, the system is not powerful. It can't even provide enough ammunition. That's nonsense. Don't use such a rubbish system!

"Bear……"

"Get away!"

Before Hu Zongnan could finish speaking, he was sprayed.

Poor the director of the Xi'an Appeasement Office, he didn't dare to speak at all. He had no choice but to lower his head.

The other party's request is completely reasonable. However, he can't satisfy it and doesn't dare to refute it. Then he can only bow his head and be a coward.

Zhang Yong was secretly amused.

Suddenly I felt that 200,000 yuan was missing.

In the current situation, Hu Zongnan and Jiang Dingwen are willing to give even 300,000 yuan.

"Sir Hu, you go and do your work first."

"good."

"General Xiong, please sit down. Let's sit and talk."

"Zhang Yong, I don't want to talk nonsense with you! I just want to ask you, how to deal with the change of uniforms in the army?"

"Enough ammunition."

"What's the meaning?"

"The ammunition tube is enough. If the weapon is not enough, use ammunition to make up for it."

"That's what you said."

"Of course. The commission arranged for me to fly from Lanzhou to Xi'an to resolve this matter."

Zhang Yong said slowly.

Help old Chiang Kai-shek to put some money on his face. It's really hard for him now.

In order to get aid from the Soviet Union, I humbly ran to Lanzhou early in the morning. I don’t know how the negotiations went.

People are very complicated. They have merits and mistakes. At this time, only Chiang Kai-shek can hold up this mess.

If Chiang Kai-shek falls, the situation will only get worse.

Qi Jiuding also made it clear that at this juncture, they did not want Chiang Kai-shek to fall.

The blood feud of the past can be temporarily put aside, because now it is related to the life and death of the nation.

"Get out!"

Xiong Kewu got angry at Hu Zongnan.

Obviously, he had a very strong opinion of Hu Zongnan.

I guess he would also get angry when he met Jiang Dingwen.

"I'm leaving."

"I'm leaving."

Hu Zongnan fled immediately.

Zhang Yong remained calm and made a gesture of invitation.

I have never seen such strong winds and waves.

It's all little things.

"It would be a shame not to eat the food that has just been served."

"I don't want to eat! I just want weapons and ammunition!"

"Then wait for me for five minutes."

"good."

Xiong Kewu stood like this.

Zhang Yong quickly grabbed some food and was barely full.

"Let's go!"

"Where to go?"

"TRAIN STATION."

"do what?"

"The military column transporting weapons and ammunition is about to arrive."

"Are you serious?"

"General Xiong, do I, Zhang, need to lie to you?"

"you……"

"Let's go!"

Zhang Yong said calmly.

The two walked out of the Office of Appeasement. Zhang Yong stopped again.

"Why don't you leave?"

"General Xiong, please mobilize a battalion of soldiers."

"Now?"

"Yes. Order them to go to the train station."

"do what?"

"Of course it's to take over the military column. Aren't you worried that the military column may be intercepted by others?"

"That won't work!"

Xiong Kewu became anxious when he heard this.

That was a military column delivering weapons and ammunition to the Sichuan Army. How could others intercept Hu?

However, Zhang Yong's words reminded him. If you don't arrange troops to station at the train station immediately, the military column will really be intercepted by others.

At the moment, what the various forces are most jealous of and what they are robbing most of are weapons and ammunition?

Hu Zongnan and Jiang Dingwen are two local gangsters in Xi'an.

If there is any benefit, they will definitely get involved.

"I'll adjust immediately..."

"No, I'll send a group over immediately."

Xiong Kewu changed his mind.

I feel like no camp is safe.

There are only three to four hundred people in a battalion, which is totally insufficient to intimidate people.

A group is required.

Only a group of more than a thousand people can control the train station.

There is a gangster there, and even if the other party wants to cut off the person, they have to weigh it first.

"very good."

Zhang Yong nodded.

He actually also wants a group.

Otherwise, there is no guarantee that Hu Zongnan and Jiang Dingwen would have any wrong ideas.

It is said that the biggest opponent of the Japanese Army's Red Deer is the Navy's Red Deer, and vice versa. The two compete with each other, which greatly consumes combat effectiveness.

In fact, is this not the case within the national army?

The conflicts, fights, and struggles between each other also consume a lot of fighting power!

If the national army could be like the Red Party, marching in unison, regardless of gains and losses, and working together, how could it possibly suffer a series of disastrous defeats?

"Someone is coming!"

"arrive!"

Xiong Kewu arranged for personnel to mobilize troops.

His attitude towards Zhang Yong has also become a little better. I believe he is not cheating this time.

All the soldiers from a regiment have been transferred. If it is finally discovered that it was a lie, then Zhang Yong will really not be able to get off the stage.

Get in the car.

Go to the train station.

Zhang Yong habitually closed his eyes to rest.

The system now learns new skills.

Learned how to use military trains to deliver goods. Just thirty wagons.

One wagon is 30 tons. Thirty wagons is 900 tons. Compared with shipping, it is still a bit less.

But don't rush, take your time.

If one military column is not enough, you can have two or three columns...

The number of weapons is indeed insufficient, but the ammunition is definitely sufficient, including bullets and cannonballs.

Arrive at the train station.

The troops transferred by Xiong Kewu have not arrived yet.

So wait first.

Half an hour later, a regiment of Sichuan troops finally arrived.

Also arriving with the Sichuan army was a battalion from Hu Zongnan's army. The team was led by a colonel.

Obviously, Hu Zongnan was very worried about the mobilization of the Sichuan army, so he arranged a battalion to monitor it.

This Hu Zongnan is doing knitting!

Deliberately creating internal tension?

"You guys go back!" Zhang Yong waved his hand impatiently.

"Sir..." The colonel hesitated, then led the troops back.

He knew Zhang Yong.

I know Zhang Yong has a very bad temper.

Zhang Yong raised his eyebrows.

The colonel hurriedly left with his troops.

Oops……

The Commissioner is going to go crazy...

"Come in!"

"good."

Zhang Yong turned around and entered the train station.

Soon, the Sichuan army temporarily took control of the train station.

One minute...

Two minutes...

"Woooooooo..."

"Uh huh..."

A loud whistle sounded.

Zhang Yong stretched his neck and looked at the slowly approaching military columns.

Good guy, it’s really a military parade!

The momentum feels stronger than that of a transport ship.

"This is it?" Xiong Kewu was full of expectations.

"Yes." Zhang Yong nodded.

The military column slowly stopped.

You can't see the end at a glance.

Thirty carriages!

I don't know how the system is arranged.

magic.

"Are they all munitions?"

Xiong Kewu was obviously shocked. So many carriages?

It would be a bit scary if they were all weapons!

"There are not many weapons. Mainly ammunition." Zhang Yong said slowly.

"How much?" Xiong Kewu asked subconsciously.

"I don't know how many. It's much more than you want."

"You mean, more than 15 million..."

"It must be more than that!"

"this……"

"General Xiong, I must remind you that only you can know this matter yourself, don't tell anyone."

"What's the meaning?"

"Don't tell anyone how many weapons and ammunition there are on the military train. Make it a confusing account."

"Why?"

"Don't ask why. Just send a telegram to thank the commission."

"Okay. I promise you."

"If you don't have enough weapons, you can trade ammunition with Xiao Zhuge and the others. There is no shortage of weapons for the Gui family. With a little deployment, you will have the weapons for your Sichuan army."

"Let me take a look first."

"please."

Zhang Yong waved his hand.

Just watch it, watch it until you see it, until you believe it.

Xiong Kewu got into the car, randomly selected an ammunition box, and pried it open. It was full of yellow bullets.

7.92mm Mauser rifle ammunition. High quality.

One box contains 1,200 rounds of ammunition. There are at least several thousand boxes in such a large carriage.

In other words, just one carriage contains millions of rounds of ammunition!

surprise.

Turning around to look at Zhang Yong.

Zhang Yong said calmly: "I said, there are not enough weapons, but enough ammunition!"
