"You, you, you Li Goucheng, please stop spouting nonsense. When did I say I would surrender to the Japanese?" Liang Xixian was so angry that he couldn't even speak smoothly.
"What are you? Aren't you just afraid of fighting with the Japanese? You coward, you are afraid of death, but I'm not afraid." Li Goucheng was born in Qiu Ba, and now he is Li Qinglin's confidant. He doesn't care about Liang Xixian. What about the bullshit director?
Xiao Liuzi, Li Gou Sheng and others were all brought down from the Liufu Mountain by Li Qinglin, and battle after battle had united everyone closely. Under Li Qinglin's leadership, their narrow escapes from death made them extremely loyal to Li Qinglin, to the point of being utterly devoted. In the Ninth Detachment, Li Qinglin's words were an imperial edict to them, and other people were not a big deal in their eyes, let alone Liang Xixian, the bullshit political training director who was always yin and yang.
Seeing that Liang Xixian's face turned pale due to Li Goucheng's words, Li Qinglin tried to smooth things over: "Okay, okay, today is a discussion meeting, not a quarrel. I hope everyone can suppress their anger and talk calmly if they have anything to say."
Li Qinglin¡¯s words seemed impartial, but in fact, he was secretly biased towards Li Goucheng. After all, Li Goucheng was contradicting his boss and was suspected of swearing.
Seeing that both of them had shut up, Li Qinglin continued: "Director Liang is actually kind-hearted. He is reminding us that we must make a battle plan before going to war and make pre-war reconnaissance preparations. If we don't fight, we will do it. If we fight, we will do it. We must win, and we must not turn the assault war into a war of attrition in which the gains outweigh the losses, so you must be fully prepared before taking action in the future, and you must not fight a confused war."
Seeing that Li Qinglin did not directly criticize himself, Liang Xixian said repeatedly: "Yes, yes! The commander is right, that's what I meant."
The topics of this meeting were basically over. Li Qinglin waved his hand and said: "This meeting is over. I hope that brothers will have a sense of crisis and think more and prepare more when they go back. We must also train our troops diligently and well to prepare for the future." The more difficult years of the war of resistance."
The meeting was over, and the officers all stood up one after another. The sound of greeting each other, the sound of benches colliding with each other, and the venue was noisy.
"Director Liang, Chief of Staff Liu, Director Luo, and the captains of the three brigades will stay. Let's have another brief meeting." In order to let the people attending the meeting hear the announcement. Li Qinglin shouted loudly.
Liang Xixian was packing up his teacup and notebook to go back. He couldn't help but be startled when he heard that Li Qinglin announced that there would be a meeting.
Today¡¯s meeting was decided the day before yesterday, and the agenda of the meeting was also set long ago. It seems that all the topics decided before the meeting have been discussed. Now Li Qinglin has informed that there will be another meeting, which is very surprising.
The following memories are of a small-scale meeting. If Li Qinglin had arrangements, why didn't he discuss it at the meeting? And what about in small meetings? What on earth does he want to do? Liang Xixian sat down, feeling vaguely uneasy.
All other participants have exited. Only Liang Xixian, Liu Changda, Luo Dafu, and several captains are now left. These are now the core figures of the ninth detachment.
There are fewer people. The venue seemed empty and quiet. Li Qinglin picked up the tea cup in front of him and slowly took a sip of tea, and then said: "Everyone, we just talked about our ammunition shortage. I think everyone is very anxious now. Everyone has thought about it just now. I think the methods are all very good. However, because there are so many people talking, I have a method that I can¡¯t say in public. Now I¡¯m leaving everyone here to have a small meeting, just to ask everyone if my method will work. ah."
Hearing what Li Qinglin said was about raising ammunition, Liang Xixian felt relieved, but then he felt a little uncomfortable. If you have an idea, why can't you say it in public? Could it be that your method won't work, or is it just whimsical? ?
Xiao Liuzi said: "Commander, the method you think of must be appropriate and it will definitely work."
Zhang Ergou also shouted: "Commander, why are you so polite to us? We will just do whatever you say."
They are all Li Qinglin's die-hard confidants. They will absolutely obey whatever Li Qinglin says and will definitely carry it out. Liang Xixian has seen this for a long time. Although Liang Xixian was dissatisfied with these people who were foolishly loyal to Li Qinglin, he had nothing to do. After all, those people had experienced life and death battles together, and were even comrades who could rely on each other for life and death.
"Then I'll tell you!" Li Qinglin gently turned down the tea cup and said, "There are still a few things left out of the report Director Luo just made."
Li Qinglin's words left Monk Luo Dafu scratching his head: "Commander, I just reported all our family assets. I guarantee with my life and property that I have not hidden any military supplies."
After Li Qinglin got off, he turned around and asked Luo Dafu: "Do we still have some broken guns and knives in our warehouse? Are there some collected bullet casings?"
Luo Dafu touched his head, smiled sheepishly, and said: "This does exist, but these things are useless and cannot be used as weapons, so I didn't mention this just now."
The weapons currently used by the Ninth Detachment and the militia are extremely complicated, including medium and formal weapons, Sanba Dagai, Hanyang-made weapons, and even old guns such as golden hook rifles, old sleeves, and Shui Lianzhu. Since arriving in northern Henan, , the Ninth Detachment has also fought a lot of large and small battles, and it is reasonable for some old weapons to be damaged; in addition, the Ninth Detachment has been exchanging bullets with the puppet troops under its control. In the secret, a large number of empty bullet casings collected after firing were naturally stored in the warehouse.
¡°The shells can be replaced with bullets, which is also a source.¡± Li Qinglin said.
Luo Dafu wondered: "We have been secretly exchanging bullets with the Japs, but the Japs seem to have become suspicious recently. They are very strict about the ammunition consumption of the Japs, so we can only change a little bit at a time. This little bit of ammunition won¡¯t play a decisive role.¡±
Li Qinglin said: "Although the quantity exchanged each time is not much, accumulating a little is a way to raise money, which is much better than pure consumption. However, I also thought of another way. We can also go to another company. Get some bullets."
"The other one? Which one is the other one?" Liang Xixian said in surprise.
Li Qinglin smiled, pointed to the Hu family's shack and said to Liang Xixian: "Director Liang, this family is our neighbor and the one you are working for recently, that is over the Eighth Road."
Liang Xixian said: "Commander, don't be joking. The Eighth Route Army doesn't have enough ammunition. How can I exchange bullets with you?"
Li Qinglin said sternly: "I'm really not joking. The Eighth Route Army doesn't have enough money and raw materials. That's because they don't have enough funds and raw materials. The Eighth Route Army's arsenal is not small. They can produce reloading bullets themselves. Director Liang must be very passionate."
Liang Xixian nodded and said: "Their arsenal is now of a certain scale and can indeed produce reloaded bullets."
In order to confirm that his words were correct, Liang Xixian added: "In fact, not only can they produce reloaded bullets now, the Communist Party has already established factories to produce reloaded bullets when it was in Jiangxi. After so many years of technology accumulation, their current Product quality is also very good.¡±
Li Qinglin said: "The technology of producing reloadable bullets is not too difficult. As long as you have the cartridge case, warhead, propellant and primer, as far as I know, the production of warhead, propellant and primer is no problem for them. The key to their inability to increase production is cartridge cases.¡±
Luo Dafu asked: "If you can produce all those things, why can't you produce bullet casings?"
Li Qinglin said: "In addition to high-quality brass, the production of bullet casings requires high-precision punching machines. There is no high-precision punching machine on the Eighth Route Road, so they only need to collect fired bullet casings and then reload these bullet casings." , the final bullet produced is a reloading bullet.¡±
"I heard that the quality of reloaded bullets is not very stable, and sometimes problems such as failure to fire and jamming occur. If misfire or jamming occurs on the battlefield, it will be fatal." Liu Changda said.
Li Qinglin said: "Reloaded bullets do have problems of one kind or another, but they are bullets after all. On the battlefield, there is a huge difference between having bullets and not having bullets. Besides, we got them from the Eighth Route Army. Reloaded bullets are not exclusively used for combat, I mean these reloaded bullets are used for soldier training."
Zhang Ergou immediately answered: "The commander is right. Everyone in the Eighth Route Army can use reloaded bullets to fight the Japanese. We only use reloaded bullets for shooting training. What's wrong with this?"
After Zhang Ergou expressed his stance, Xiao Liuzi, Li Gou Sheng and others naturally nodded in agreement.
Liang Xixian knew that it would be useless even if he objected, but he was unwilling to do so, so he asked: "Commander, you said you wanted to exchange bullets with them, will they agree to exchange it? Besides, the Eighth Route Army's own reloading bullets are all If it¡¯s not enough, what will they give in exchange?¡±
"In addition to giving them empty cartridges, we also give them certain supplies. If they ask for money, we can also give them money. I believe they will definitely agree to exchange it because they will get certain benefits." Li Qinglin said with certainty. : "The reason why they don't have enough reloaded bullets is not because they can't produce them, but because they don't have enough raw materials. If we give them an empty bullet casing and give them some necessary materials, I believe they can produce one soon." Hundreds of rounds of reloadable ammunition.???
Having said this, Li Qinglin turned to Luo Dafu and said: "You sort out the firearms that need repair in our warehouse. Their arsenal can repair these broken guns that we have no use for, and we can use these broken guns in exchange for bullets." cost."
Li Qinglin then said to Han Jizhong: "If they ask us to exchange chemical products, please contact Yan Boling and we will try our best to satisfy them."
Han Jizhong said: "Okay, I will contact Yan Boling immediately."
Seeing that the matter was irreversible, Liang Xixian said, "Commander, can we think of something on the railway? If we deal with the Japanese arms train, wouldn't all the problems be solved?"
