    "Now, please let Director Luo talk about our current military supplies situation!" Li Qinglin changed the subject.

    "Ahem!" Luo Dafu, the director of munitions, finally stood up. He cleared his throat and began to speak.

    Originally, it was not the director's turn to speak at military meetings. Matters related to military supplies were usually discussed at the daily meetings of the headquarters. However, Luo Dafu's speech was arranged by Li Qinglin before the meeting, so everyone also  Nothing to say.

    "Arrangement for Luo Dafu to speak at a military meeting of all officers is also Li Qinglin's method at this stage." "Please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!"  The Ninth Detachment currently seems to be strong and strong, and everything seems to be going well. However, from Li Qinglin's perspective, the Ninth Detachment is about to encounter big problems, especially in terms of food and ammunition.

    Luo Dafu¡¯s speech was relatively long and verbose. The most important part of it was hard numbers, such as the current number of personnel, mules and horses, guns, bullets in stock, food, military uniforms, etc.

    Logistics and supply matters are very complex and trivial, and the numbers listed by Luo Dafu are even more boring. They are not attractive to officers who lead troops to fight all year round, and some people feel a little drowsy after listening to them.

    After Luo Dafu's report was finished, Li Qinglin knocked on the table and said, "Everyone, do you want to sleep? Do you feel that Director Luo's affairs are not the same as yours?"

    Li Qinglin looked around everyone and saw that everyone was trembling. Li Qinglin raised his voice and said: "Although these data sound very big, it seems that they can't be used up. In fact, these things can only support our ninth detachment.  Shiji¨¡n less than three months old."

    Next, Li Qinglin listed the results of his calculations one by one, including the food, ammunition, uniforms, fodder for mules and horses, etc. that the troops consume every month.  Li Qinglin t¨¨bi¨¦ strengthened his tone in terms of weapons and ammunition.  Because the ammunition situation is the worst.  Li Qinglin's algorithm is still based on the calculation that there will only be one small battle in the next three months.  Coupled with the amount consumed by normal training, the Ninth Detachment's current spare bullets and artillery shells are obviously not enough.

    "Don't think that we have nothing to do with you in terms of military supplies. What war is about? What we fight is manpower and material resources! Let me put it more clearly, what we fight for is high-quality soldiers and sufficient weapons and equipment! We, China, have a lot of people.  But the quality of soldiers is not as good as that of Japanese soldiers. This is something everyone knows!"

    Li Qinglin said this and looked around for another week. Everyone had fought against the Japanese.  They all knew the gap between the Japanese soldiers and the Japanese soldiers, so everyone kept their heads silent.  Li Qinglin continued: "Now there is a problem with our logistics supply, and the consequences will be serious."

    Li Qinglin knocked on the table and said: "I just noticed that many people were drowsy when Director Luo gave his report. It seems that what Director Luo said was trivial. But is this really a trivial matter? Director Liang, you  Let¡¯s talk about the supplies we have recently received from the rear.¡±

    "Well, well!" Liang Xixian had never had a chance to speak. This time he was called by Li Qinglin. He quickly cleared his throat and began to introduce the current situation of the national war of resistance and the supply situation of the Ninth Detachment from the rear.

    Since the Japanese have launched offensives again and again this summer.  The National Revolutionary Army, which was fighting against Japan on the frontal battlefield, was defeated by the enemy.  The situation on the western battlefield is good, but the improvement is limited.  It was just that Hu Zongnan was confronting the Japanese army based on the Yellow River, and could not provide supplies to the guerrilla troops who penetrated deep into the war zone. On the southern battlefield, the Military Commission concentrated on the few main forces on hand to fight the invaders in the Changsha area. Because the Chinese  The Japanese army's resolute resistance temporarily blocked the main force of the Japanese army.  Although the Battle of Changsha delayed the enemy, it also sacrificed a lot of manpower on the Chinese side and consumed a lot of precious resources.  The Military Commission is currently organizing the Third Battle of Changsha. Material supplies there are seriously insufficient. Therefore, guerrilla units like the Ninth Detachment that go deep into the war zone are basically cut off from supplies.

    "Since the first war zone last sent some men and ammunition, due to the hardships of the journey and the difficulties in the rear area, it has taken half a year to get a bullet and a grain of food. It can be said that at present, ruguo  If we don't get some supplements in time, we won't even be able to guarantee the ammunition for a large-scale battle." Liang Xixian finally ended his speech.

    During the Anti-Japanese War, the Chinese Communist Party and the Japanese soldiers had a good tradition of cherishing weapons. This was even more obvious on the Eighth Route Army where weapons were extremely scarce.  In the military diary of the Japanese invaders, there is a sentence: "Every bullet is given by the locusts and is more precious than gold." In fact, the real reason is that the small country of Japan is extremely short of resources, and the Japanese soldiers have long developed the habit of cherishing  weapons??Bullet habit.  These Japanese soldiers, t¨¨bi¨¦ are the old Japanese who entered China in the early days. Generally, they will never shoot easily before taking aim. Many Japanese soldiers even have to do one thing before they are defeated and about to die, and that is to destroy the weapons in their hands.

    On the Kuomintang side, because soldiers have insufficient military training and combat literacy, they often shoot the enemy as soon as they see the shadow of the enemy. At this time, the enemy is still outside the range of the rifle, and the bullets cannot hit the enemy at all.  Why did Shime's soldiers shoot so early?  In fact, they are just trying to embolden themselves, using loud noises to embolden themselves. Therefore, the Nationalist Army often consumes extremely huge amounts of ammunition, but the results are often very small.

    ?We are all leaders of troops. We are all aware of the shortcomings of our soldiers. Once the troops are short of food and ammunition, something will happen. These people are all aware of it.

    At present, most of the personnel in the team were captured as strong men, and many people did not come to serve as soldiers willingly. Although they have national justice to support their beliefs, you let these people go hungry and bare-handed to fight against the armed forces.  To fight the Japanese soldiers with teeth, Li Qinglin did not have this ability.

    "The situation has been explained. Let's all use our brains to think about it. What should we do next?" Li Qinglin glanced at the venue and said.

    As soon as Li Qinglin finished speaking, Xiao Liuzi stood up: "Didn't we just help Sun Mazi fight a battle? Let's not talk about the military expenses. He should recognize the ammunition consumption of our troops, right?"

    The big man said: "Yes! If we hadn't helped them last time, Sun Mazi might have been driven all over the mountain by the Japs now. We must get back the ammunition consumed, and the quantity must not be less!"

    "Yes! We should get it back." Li Qinglin nodded and said: "Our people have arrived at Sun Dazi's side and are negotiating with them about replenishing ammunition. But the news coming back from there is not very good. This guy Sun Dazi  They are very stingy and have been bargaining with our people. It seems that even if they can produce some ammunition this time, the quantity will be limited."

    "How about we spend money to buy some from an arms dealer?" Someone stood up and suggested.

    "This can be considered a way." Li Qinglin said: "Buying ammunition requires long-distance trafficking by some smugglers in Tongguo. But the Japanese have been very strict recently. Even if some arms can flow into our side, compared to thousands of us,  It¡¯s just a drop in the bucket for our team. In addition, guns and ammunition are now very expensive on the market, so where will this huge amount of funds come from?¡±

    "Either we take the initiative and kill the Japanese once. Ruguo, we won the battle and captured the Japanese stronghold. Didn't we get some captures?" Someone suggested.

    Liang Xixian disagreed, and he said: "This can be regarded as a way. Ruguo can fight a dozen if the conditions are ripe. However, the ones currently with Ji¨¥chu are some strongholds, and the main force of the Japs is currently behind.  . Not to mention how much sacrifice we need to make to attack these strong fortifications, but these strongholds themselves do not have many troops. In addition, they must ignore the expense of shooting and artillery while holding on to the guog. Even if we finally defeat the stronghold,  That won¡¯t replenish much ammunition.¡±

    ¡°This won¡¯t work, that won¡¯t work either, so how can it work?¡± Someone whispered underneath.

    Although the muttering was not loud, it was heard by Li Qinglin: "What should we do? I think any of these will work. It is better to establish strongholds and seize them. Why does Shime say this? This is mainly due to the following advantages.  .¡±

    Li Qinglin continued: "The Japs have been newly defeated, and their most elite combat troops are not in this area, so we still have a certain advantage in fighting the Japs' garrison; in addition, we have not fought many battles recently, t¨¨bi¨¦ was added later  Some of the recruits have never been on the battlefield, so some small-scale battles are of great benefit to the growth of these recruits; thirdly, we usually consume bullets in live-fire shooting training. Instead of spending them on the training ground, it is better to fight  It¡¯s more realistic to go to the devil¡¯s head.¡±

    In fact, Li Qinglin's third reason is very far-fetched. To become a qualified soldier, a recruit must undergo rigorous training, and live ammunition shooting is part of the rigorous training.  Ruguo puts a new recruit on the battlefield who has not fired a few shots. In fact, it is not much different from the behavior of other troops who treat new recruits as cannon fodder.

    However, this is in the National Army. It seems that strong men can be replenished continuously, but weapons are in short supply. Therefore, in the eyes of officers, guns and ammunition are much more precious than soldiers. Currently, there are so many officers doing this kind of thing.  Therefore, Li Qinglin's statement was recognized by almost all military officers.

    Liang Xixian had a different opinion: "It's good to win the battle and capture something. If we capture the enemy's stronghold, wouldn't we lose money? The enemy is currently interested inWe went to withdraw our troops, but their mobility is much stronger than ours. If we can't capture them all at once, and the Japanese reinforcements arrive again, then shouldn't we withdraw our troops?  ruguo Our troops cannot get rid of the Japanese reinforcements for a while, and our offensive has turned into a war of attrition. Wouldn't that be worse?  I think we should not consider attacking the Japanese strongholds for the time being. We should think more about other aspects now.  "

    Hearing what Liang Xixian said, Li Goucheng quit: "How can there be a victory in a war? Guan Gong still has the shihou from Maicheng. Since it is a war, we can't be afraid of defeat! If you are afraid of the wolf in front of you, you are afraid of the tiger in the back.  , then it¡¯s just a fart fight, wouldn¡¯t it be better to surrender directly to the Japanese?¡± (To be continued.)
