Chapter 442 Is the National Salvation Army selling arms?
The commander should be much calmer and shook his head and replied: "The telegram should be sent to rebuke him."
"Leave the troops and go deep into the enemy's heart to take risks. This trend cannot be long. We must make serious criticism of this behavior, otherwise other cadres will follow the rules, and that will be a disaster!"
"Of course, the commendation telegram for the National Salvation Army must be sent. We will all meet Comrade Zhou Cheng's request. We will immediately order the troops around the National Salvation Army to collect bullet shells, waste guns, scrap copper and iron, and send them to the National Salvation Army defense zone to replace guns and bullets."
"The Eighth Route Army can also collect it. Although the distance is long and it is not convenient to trade. But they can organize mules and horse teams to go to the National Rescue Military Defense Zone to conduct small-scale transactions. When the mosquitoes are smaller, they will also be meat. Each time they trade dozens of guns, which accumulates a lot, and can exchange hundreds of guns in a year."
"I'll ask Zhou Cheng again: Is there any problem with the arsenal he formed? I need help from the division headquarters to solve it. If there is any, it must be reported. If the division headquarters can solve it, it will definitely help to solve it."
The political commissar said: "I will find a way to send it to him by finding a few military workers, and give it to him five company-level political cadres. The two newly formed independent battalions must form combat effectiveness as soon as possible."
"The National Salvation Army was originally a big trouble for the Japanese. Now that there is an arsenal of such a large scale, the Japanese will definitely want to destroy them even more."
"So their strength must be enhanced so that they can protect the base and arsenal."
"We also want to remind several Eighth Route Army troops active around the National Salvation Army, and they must also restore their combat effectiveness as soon as possible."
"No matter when the National Salvation Army will be attacked in the next days or how many Japanese and puppet troops will attack them, we will provide reinforcements to them at all costs."
The teacher nodded: "Comrade Zhou Cheng left behind 200,000 oceans of medicine at one time, which must be prepared for the next anti-sweeping."
"He should have guessed that the next sweep meeting of the Japanese and puppet troops against them was unprecedented, so so many medicines were left behind. Our division headquarters should also prevent problems before they happen and prepare in advance."
"My idea is to leave behind 100,000 oceans of medicine and 50,000 oceans of gold, and let the National Salvation Army directly distribute the Eighth Route Army to several Eighth Route Army around them for later use, and the remaining 100,000 oceans of medicine and 350,000 oceans of gold were sent to the division headquarters for approval."
The leader of the Eighth Route Army Yangquan Independent Regiment was worried about the expansion of the Independent Regiment.
According to his previous thoughts, the Independent Regiment and the National Salvation Army jointly launched a railway line and seized a large amount of equipment and ammunition. The Independent Regiment should have easily gathered the equipment of the two battalions, but the fact was not as smooth as he imagined.
The Independent Regiment seized a large amount of equipment on the battlefield, but it also consumed a large amount of weapons and ammunition in the battle.
After replenishing all the weapons and ammunition that the troops had lost on the battlefield, the seized equipment could not even be collected in a single battalion.
The recruits from the two battalions have been recruited and all relevant cadres have been arranged, but each battalion is only equipped with more than 100 rifles, and more than half of the remaining soldiers are trained with a wooden stick of the length of a rifle.
It greatly affects the speed of troops training into an army.
To take a step back, even if these troops have been trained to form combat effectiveness, they will not be able to go to the battlefield because they do not have guns.
For several days, the regiment commander was trying to find ways to get equipment, and he ignored the light and heavy machine guns. At least, the soldiers' rifles should be equipped so that they would not go to the battlefield with a wooden stick.
"The regiment commander, the division headquarters urgently powered, our equipment shortage problem can be solved!"
"The division headquarters asked us to collect a large amount of damaged equipment and scrap copper and iron in the base area, and the rifles, light machine guns, heavy machine guns, artillery of all calibers, and rails captured by railways that were blown up on the battlefield...all of them can be done."
"After collecting it, all of them will be sent to the National Salvation Army Defense Zone and exchanged weapons from them."
"Two rifles that are not damaged in particular can be exchanged for a good gun, three rifles that are damaged in particular can be exchanged for a good gun, and light and heavy machine guns are also exchanged in this way."
"Scrapped copper and rotten iron are replaced by the national rescue army according to their weight and quality..."
Others don’t know about the two newly expanded battalions of the National Salvation Army, the regiment commander knows it.
In his opinion, the National Salvation Army is also short of weapons, so it should not be able to separate the extra weapons to reinforce the Independent Corps. Otherwise, he would have sent people to find the National Salvation Army to borrow weapons five days ago, and he would not have been worried about weapons until now.
After hearing the political commissar's words, the leader's first reaction was that he did not believe it: "Where did the National Salvation Army get so many weapons? Are they doing arms business and reselling weapons and ammunition?"
The political commissar shook his head and asked thoughtfully: "It shouldn't be. If we really do the arms business, we will definitely pay for weapons and ammunition, rather than taking a bunch of damaged weapons that are almost scrap iron!"
"This telegram reminds me of the recent exchange of bullet shells from the National Salvation Army. In the past half a month, we have exchanged nearly 40,000 bullets. Although most of them are reloaded, there is almost no difference between the shooting accuracy within a hundred meters and the original bullet."
"The National Salvation Army can reload bullets with bullet shells, and it will definitely repair guns. Maybe they have the ability to make guns. They use the damaged weapons we collect to produce and bless good guns on a large scale.
The regiment commander's eyes immediately brightened. If the National Rescue Army could really repair and manufacture guns on a large scale, in addition to the National Rescue Army itself, it would benefit from it, the Eighth Route Army in the surrounding areas would definitely be able to get a lot of benefits.
This is proven from the reloading of bullets.
The order immediately: "Whether the national rescue army can repair guns or build guns, we don't care, and we don't have to ask. As long as they agree that we can replace the guns with damaged guns, it's their own business."
"Political Commissar, if I remember correctly, since the establishment of the Independent Regiment, all the damaged firearms we seized on the battlefield have been stored. Even if there are not two thousand, one thousand must be there!"
The independence group's family is hidden in the heart of the political commissar. After hearing the group leader's question, he blurted out without thinking: "Far more than two thousand!"
"In addition to the damaged weapons piled up in the warehouse, we also used them ourselves, the Japanese and puppet troops retreated and could not be blown up by blown up, and were destroyed by artillery fire on both sides on the battlefield."
"There are more than 2,500 rifles, more than 50 light machine guns, more than 10 heavy machine guns, and more than 10 artillery of various caliber."
The regiment commander was excited when he heard this: "So many, if we can send them to the National Salvation Military Defense Zone to replace them with good guns, we will solve the problem of the five or six battalions but the weapons, and we can also replace all the old sleeves that have smoothed the rifles in the team."
"Political Commissar, you immediately arrange for people to sort out the bad guns in the warehouse. Those with less damage are concentrated together. Those with particularly serious damage are divided into one category. Light and heavy machine guns and artillery are all separated separately. The faster the speed, the better..."
